We used to bet during school all the time, mostly on breaks but sometimes people have no lesson that period so some days there would be a card game being played continually with some group of people. Was never caught or called out as a big deal as the the amounts bet were never really too big for it to be a big deal. If anyone had started arguing or fallen out over it then maybe it would all fallen apart but its a friendly game so no problems for anyone in the end.
Cards relates to statistics which I was taking at the time so surely I had diplomatic immunity from prosecution as I was doing a practical school experiment arguably. Never had to test that argument luckily but I think its true you can learn from calculating the odds on gambling games, its not the negative people always want to call it out as imo.
Topic: Have you ever done something crazy to bet? - page 7. (Read 2491 times)
Many gamblers you see today, started from their childhood to gamble, some games we played then, we thought it to be for fun without even knowing we were actually gambling. But when we started growing up to a certain age, then we realized our selves and either made it official or sneak to gamble. And at some point we even made stupid decision all in the name of making extra money for ourselves. But the most important thing is how you handle that behavior. gambling from childhood is either you become irresponsible gambler or you be a professional by knowing when to quit.
Indeed majority of gamblers started having their gambling experience from childhood, at first they might not even know what they are doing because all they could think of at that time was to catch fun and play their normal games. unknown to them that they are learning the basics of gambling. The experience most of us had as children in gambling is what built us up to where we are today, I personally learnt a lot from those experiences and I believe those lead to the perspective I have about gambling.
If we try to do anything crazy about bet we are playing when gambling, we are likely to see the other way round as well being the outcome on what we have done, it can happens that we be in a situation of taking drastic steps on how we want to go about with gambling and this may only be something we are doing out of our own ignorance not minding the consequences to that, but as we may it, things may go as expected that we achieved a better result even at the crazy things we do.
There are still people that would choose to do anything just for them to make money in gambling. Gambling is supposed to be something we could control our mindset for not just trying to win by all means. There are people who can still borrow funds to make sure they bet on their favorite game and try if they could win bets. Things are not supposed to be in this way and we need to make sure we plan things just to make sure that we don't go too far as gamblers. Money need to be made but we must also think we'll before we decided to do anything that would give us problems as gamblers especially getting funds from people in order to play gamble. 
-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?
I do not know if this counts as betting at the wrong place and the wrong time but I am going to share. I remember being under a lot of pressure to deliver on a work project whose deadline was fast approaching. I was stuck and one night I couldn't sleep. It was late and rather than work on the project, I logged into one of the online casinos and just gambled. I didn't care whether I won or lost, I just need to not think about project because of the pressure it was causing me. Surprisingly, went to work the next day and my boss said the project in one hold as one of he clients bailed out. Such relieve for me. I bet at the wrong time even when I knew I should have been working on the project. I remember when I was in high school, I saw my schoolmates betting with my classmates even when we were inside the school, as long as no one saw our teachers using their pocket money.
These are the ways they used to do it—an old way to make money—and their pockets were used to bet, and many people are also addicted to that way of gambling.
But all of a sudden they didn't notice that one day our teacher caught them doing it and got punished of what they did during school hours.

Indeed, sometimes in gambling, it is believed that the higher the risk you a gambler takes, the higher the reward. But this theory isn't certain as one can never be certain or too sure about gambling. In fact, this can actually work quite in the opposite direction and lead a gambler into the unending cycle of making irrational decisions while gambling, with hopes of winning big and then forget about the potential consequences that it can lead you to. Indeed, this behaviour is mostly based on emotion rather than logic. 
Sometimes I thought about large and small bets and came to the conclusion that small bets give a longer lifetime for our deposit, but the more often we place bets, the more likely we will lose if we count everything in the amount that we paid to the gambling office. If we make large bets, or even one in our life, which can be called the craziest bet in our life, then the variance of this bet will be so great (depending on luck) that the casino may not receive its profit from us at all, if you understand what we mean I. For example, we made one bet with our entire deposit and lost, and never entered the game again in our entire lives. In this case, we can definitely say that we beat the casino, but I very much doubt that there are such players, because they will want to come back again and repeat their success.
My biggest bet was when I decided to bet half of my deposit and lost, then immediately under the influence of emotion I bet the second part and won back. After this experience, I didn’t want to bet anymore and took my money away for a very long period until I returned to betting again, but I never gave it again and I don’t want to.

No matter how good you might appear to be, when it comes to hiding certain things from your parents and teachers, you can't be all careful all the time. Just one simple mistake and your hard secrets will be made public.
We all try hard to hide our bad habits from our guidance, but they always discover them. We get punished and move on. That's just it. There were times when I was not bold enough to talk about gambling in front of my SR siblings during my middle school years, but right now I can even do it in front of them. What matters is that I'm in control.
As long as those who gamble at a very young age can be controlled, it certainly won't be a problem. but we all know how the psychology of teenagers is, as well as their finances.We all try hard to hide our bad habits from our guidance, but they always discover them.

Maybe at that time, we could play with small capital or even join forces with friends to bet. but the emotional condition of teenagers remains unstable. they will prioritize their ambitions and emotions continue to explode according to their wishes. and the impact will be bad if this desire is not achieved.
We all have bad secrets about gambling, but more of us start to realize it when we become experienced enough in this matter. time makes us aware.
In addition, there are so many things that look tempting in gambling that indirectly can sometimes make adults fooled and carried away in impulsive actions, well especially for someone who is still underage where most likely they will not be able to make careful considerations and also they are difficult to really be able to distinguish which one should do and which one should be avoided. And the most vulnerable is emotion, this is the main problem, which as we know that when you are trapped in emotions that dominate due to defeat, it is clearly very difficult for us to be truly rational in terms of making decisions which in the end, it is clear that they will stop more when all the money runs out, sometimes situations like this can also make changes in behavior in a worse direction for the personality of a teenager.

Just like you said, the minds of the teenage child are something parents can't predict, so they need to try the little way they can to correct them. Even when the child feels they are on the right track and in control of their gambling activities, there is still no guarantee that they won't go sideways and start misbehaving, especially when they don't have a source of income on their own and are still depending on their parents.
If we try to do anything crazy about bet we are playing when gambling, we are likely to see the other way round as well being the outcome on what we have done, it can happens that we be in a situation of taking drastic steps on how we want to go about with gambling and this may only be something we are doing out of our own ignorance not minding the consequences to that, but as we may it, things may go as expected that we achieved a better result even at the crazy things we do.
Though many people have been involved in this kind of thing but one thing is sure those days you weren't in control of what you did considering your age and am very happy that you condemned the act, I have a friend those days that involve in the same act but his own has worsen now because he couldn't stop gambling, he graduated from middle school gambling to a pure addict, op you were lucky that you were able to get out of this, many addicted gamblers started just as you narrated it, gambling at a young age is very disastrous because at this age you are unable to control your actions, this may sound strange to many of us that weren't involve in this kind of stuff but I must tell you getting out of this behaviour isn't easy.
You are right that when any one place a bet which usually not happen that occur only for addiction or we may call it as a crazy bet. And it happened with me at several times. And maximum time I am closer though I made profit in fee bets. I had bet these bets as I had no control though I think I am not addicted on gambling. 
We all have our past and as our memories have that some of us use it as stepping stone for the future while others live in that same faith and does not making any good movement for their future .
we also have our gambling style when we were younger and yeah youngsters are creative to have their gambling ways hidden infront of their parents and teachers ,.

I don't remember doing anything crazy enough to bet. Because I'm not addicted to it. But once I bet my personal mobile phone. But it was limited to our friend group. I did it just for fun.
The reason you didn't become addicted to what you were doing then is because you only did it for fun and not for making extra money, assuming you had a wrong intention in games you were gambling on, that could have lead to becoming addicted. When you gamble is such instances just for making the game more interesting and serious it will eventually bring the beauty of the game you're playing, and every player would take the game serious. I have also had same experience where we bet on our selves in some games, it might be a street to street match. But we never one day made the mistake of staking what we cannot produce collectively from our spare money from our pockets.

Many gamblers you see today, started from their childhood to gamble, some games we played then, we thought it to be for fun without even knowing we were actually gambling. But when we started growing up to a certain age, then we realized our selves and either made it official or sneak to gamble. And at some point we even made stupid decision all in the name of making extra money for ourselves. But the most important thing is how you handle that behavior. gambling from childhood is either you become irresponsible gambler or you be a professional by knowing when to quit.
That's right because many of us knows gambling from a long time ago, especially when there are no online casino. We playing gambling with our friends and used simple games but we used money. That will be a gambling because we used money to wins some money collects by some friends. Many people still playing gambling even when they are grows up and doesn't thinks that is a gambling games. They thinks that's normal if they are playing some games using money but doesn't thinks that's the beginning signs to get addicted to gambling. That makes many people becomes addicted to gambling without they realizes that they already gets addicted to gambling. If we thinks about the past, we may thinks that is a crazy thing that we have done in the past so we must thinks to stops that craziness. 
It was a dark time at school. And I've done it too. I warned in advance this cannot be an example and it is not a good thing to do. I used my pocket money to gamble at school. Several times I missed classes that I didn't like just to gamble. I gamble on games like chess and cards. Of course it's hard to bring poker to school so we use paper that we draw on. I even understand the game of chess because I want to win at gambling. It was a bad experience and not to be imitated.
I was lucky because I realized my mistake when I graduated from school. I think if I continue my gambling hobby then I will get addicted and believe me it will not be good for your life.
Yes indeed this is a bad thing to do even if we have money we shouldn't do something crazy such as risking money with a large amount of money, we must be able to see the side of the loss that is definitely happening. Leaving the activities that we should do for the sake of gambling in my opinion is a bad action, because you should not also defend gambling desperately. Gambling with when you have free time, don't let gambling disturb your other activities that might be more important than gambling.I was lucky because I realized my mistake when I graduated from school. I think if I continue my gambling hobby then I will get addicted and believe me it will not be good for your life.
Gambling can indeed be addictive, many young people who live messy because they are too excessive when doing gambling, they are addicted to gambling, while gambling addictive is not a good thing, because by being addicted to gambling we will experience continuous gambling that can make We lose a lot of money. Because the victory in the gambling cannot be obtained easily, most likely what will be obtained is only a defeat that makes us lose some money and if we are addicted, the gambling that cannot be stopped with other meanings is the same as our money that will be drained a lot by doing gambling endlessly.
Risk is part of life. Smart gambling is crucial. Develop yourself, your abilities, your thoughts. Your probabilities rise greatly there. We want a powerful nation, right? That requires smart choices. Dont waste money on rigged games. Use those resources to create something permanent and useful. A winning recipe.
I know addiction is hard. It takes considerable willpower to overcome. But remember, people want to assist. Utilize support services. Never let gambling rule you. We love winning, but with honesty and purpose.
-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?
Well, when I was at school, we usually used "dice" to bet or we had "bug" fights. We knew which spiders or insects were very aggresive and competitive and we went out to collect them and then we placed them in a plastic container and we bet on the fights that happened in those bottles.
As I grew up, I realised that humans should never abuse nature for their own fun, so I stopped doing it and I even started to educate my friends on the "bad" stuff that we were doing.. and they stopped too.
Now, I bet on humans fighting each other in a cage. (Boxing / UFC / MMA)

Hi community,
I remember when I was in middle school, we used to play cards almost every day, and our stupidity reached the point where we would skip classes while we were inside school. The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card. So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected from selling cigarettes.
Of course, this is not something I am proud of and I do not recommend it to everyone, but it's just childhood memories .

Everyone does this type of thing in childhood and we never felt those things as stupid at that time, rather it was considered as a courageous activity if the students were bunked the classes and do other activities as you explained. It is only afterwards when we grow up and recall our memories only to found out that we have been doing crazy things in our school times.
It is all ok if you did not spend a lot of money on gambling, did not theft your parent's money only to lose in gambling and also such activities did not make you lose in your studies , then its all part of the life. I feel that those students or kids who do not do such types of crazy things may always remain backward or not so social, Again this is mine thinking.
I don't remember doing anything crazy enough to bet. Because I'm not addicted to it. But once I bet my personal mobile phone. But it was limited to our friend group. I did it just for fun.
, i would rather bet my watch than my mobile unit lol.

The Only crazy bet I did in the past is when I use the electric bill payment into gambling , because I was the
one assigned to pay the bill monthly as the Electric company is near my university , but instead of directly paying? i gamble into
Color game and at least it ends great because I doubled the money.
I took the other half and gave the other half to my mother and tells everything , promising that this
will never happen again and felt so sorry.
