Most of the people in my circles don't play much gambling. The few that are interested in it haven't achieved victories that I'd regard to be significant for them. I don't blame them for being afraid of losing all their money to gambling; they are the type that take caution while still taking risks with the little they have. They only bet a tiny amount, and the payouts are typically small; if they bet more, I believe they could still win large, but they choose not to out of fear of losing everything. They've undoubtedly learned something from it in some way, and they can impart that knowledge to someone who is interested.

Have your winning story or celebration lured someone you know into gambling because he wants to win big like you
A friend was in my place the day I had my biggest win from gambling on Livecasino. It is not an amount so big, but I was excited being that it was my biggest win from gambling there. He saw how excited I was and enquired to know why I was happy, I showed him the amount I just won and he immediately was interested, that he asked me to immediately create an account for him on Livecasino and help him make his first deposit to gamble with. I don't know if he still gambles.

Have you ever taught or predicted a game for someone which turn out to be a win, how big was it ?
I would be careful about this, some people may blame you for your loss.

Its the other way round for me, someone else's winning actually lured me into gambling, though this was around 2013 or 2014, i know nothing about gambling online back then, the guy whose winning lured me to place a bet for the first time knew nothing about online gambling too, so it all happened in a land based betting shop (wouldn't call that a casino since it does not qualify to be called that), we both worked in the same company, he was into betting while i was not, the day the guy won a little above #100,000 naira in our local currency, the news spread through out the entire company, back then, a 100k was quite a lot of money for us, this winning is what lured me into placing a bet for the first time.

A couple of persons got intrigued by my winnings and started gambling but, stopped after few weeks. They'll bet and loss, so the motivation derailed, forgetting how long it took me to win. Although, peeps may run out of money as a result and move on instead of waiting for the jackpot. On the other hand, I'm not pushed to spend above my limits because of another person's win. It doesn't stop me to keep an eye on the platform that paid them huge.
This do proves out that even you do see people who do make big wins and tending out to imitate them and then it do ends up on a disaster.This is why i dont really like on boasting up when i do win.

Just like the rest been saying that getting blamed on something isnt something a good feeling which its better to be silent.It cant really be avoided for some exposure specially if you've

done gambling physically on which there are people around which could really know that you had won something.It would be inspiring some people to play too
because they believe that it could really make them win too which is really a wrong mindset.

Hopefully I haven't, because if that's the case then I'll be luring people into a hobby/activity that is bound to give them endless disappointments and a lot of wasted cash. Also thankfully enough I haven't won anything substantial for the past few years, and all this time gambling has only been a money sink for me. $20 per week, multiply it to 40+ weeks a year for 3 years and that's how much I already downed on gambling alone. Not a lot compared to what others are spending but somehow enough to buy a car or even something fancy that you can still use until now. Getting into gambling because you saw your mate win is a no no. You are expecting lots of disappointments along the way and you might even turn to a degenerate if you can't handle your emotions carefully.

No, that didn't happen. That's because I don't wager big amounts or play too often. I however, lured people into crypto investing after I showed my returns to my friends. I know it is not the same thing because one is investing and the other is gambling but my point is, people really give attention when they see the big gains of someone else. That' s exactly how the ad business works.

 You see a beautiful girl or a handsome man doing/wearing something on TV and it makes you to do the same thing or buy the same clothes. Your sub-conscious affects you and makes you think that you will be like that man (or woman) if you buy the same product he/she is advertising.

It is more like, someone's winning spurred me to start gambling. After few loses, I simply didnt think I was favored in this aspect and had to quit that kind of gambling entirely. Though I intend to gamble later, I can only do so if I see a light in that aspect. I don't need be motivated by anyone's circumstances. I do it by motivating myself and going ahead to fund my accounts for betting.
Seriously, anyone who is winning has been patient enough to lose some cash and learn by understanding the data and flow. So I don't become jealous by someone's winning. I find my own circumstances and gamble around that, with money I can freely afford to lose of course.

I think that was typical. Yes, there's an experience of mine already where I lured someone to do gambling because they see me winning a good amount from there. It's sports betting and they saw me profiting from around 2x odds or underdog between 3x to 4x odds.

They didn't realize that it's not always a good day for sports betting and on that part, I just let them experience the actual pressure to get profits in sports-betting. Others continue to do sports betting, and others do not.

I think with the likes of just sharing it online on social media platforms but not likely IRL. I think it's the luring to someone since they're commenting on it on how it is done, how it is played and how do I make money out of it. I just state the obvious, "it's just simply a simple gambling".

Yes, I share stories and celebrate my wins with my close friend, I always give him tips wheneve I won a good sum of money.

I did somehow.  My close friend has no interest in gambling but with my stories he got interested and asked me about my strategy.  I told him some tricks on dice and a good game provider and some good rtp slots to play with.  He tried his luck on dice applying the tricks I told him and was happy to inform me that he turned his $10 worth of Doge to $100+.  I remind him to pause for a while and skip playing for a week if he felt that he is taking a series of reds which he gladly listened.

I had a few situations when we bet on the same event with friends and some of us lost while others won because we had different ideas about the outcome. I don't feel like any of the people who lost felt like they should follow the ones who won or anything like that. We always treated it like good fun and felt good regardless because those who won would buy drinks and stuff and we were ready to waste money that night anyway.

It's important to have fun. When you start paying for being nervous or angry it's counterproductive and I wouldn't pay any money for such experience.

I dont win big since i do gamble less amounts and everything i do with gambling do really keeps for myself and dont intend to share it up with others which means that it wont really be that major thing for me to share up.
Im not that kind of a person who do really share up on what im doing personally specially on leisure time or entertainment.I dont mind on others business but rather focus into mine.
I dont have that kind of mindset on trying out to impress people around me.When i do lose money then its only you who do know and not tend to share up with others.
Its not ideal on hooking up someone to play gambling considering that losses is really that common and i dont like on getting blamed.

I used to share it with my friends back then and eventually one of them said that he wanted to try gambling. I'm not sure if he wanted to win big as most of my winnings weren't that big but they were frequent though. I don't do it anymore since it felt like bragging and I remember that one bad experience with my friend that made me feel bad, we all moved on from the situation so it's all good but now I just prefer to keep my winnings to myself.

Because my gambling wins and losses are almost equal, I have not been able to be the type of person to be attracted to by others. Sometimes we talk about match predictions with my friends. There are even times when we make evaluations about controversial positions after the matches are over, but I haven't been able to impress anyone yet. I guess it's just a matter of my personal skills and luck. If I had been a better predictor, others might have been impressed by me, but in the current circumstances, I'm just an ordinary person to them...

Not surprising if there are any cases. People are easily carried away by money. Observe how they asked "how much money did you get from doing..." and "can you tell me about that". It creates interest and influence especially in gambling. The activity itself is tempting ; winning jig time in a single night. But the problem with influence is that people only see the good part of the story. They won't be interested to know how much you've lost, they would only care how much you've earned as a player. They will just realize it eventually wherein they're close to regrets. Gambling is different. You've more likely lose double your winnings,it is just that the moment you win makes it rewarding which boosts the interest or confidence of non gamblers.

But if you are a gambler who cares for your circle, make sure to educate them first of the risks involved. Y'all know what follows if not.

I don't think so, because firstly I have never even told about my activities regarding gambling, secondly so far I have never won a big prize or can be considered a big one that can amaze the value obtained, and honestly don't want anyone to gamble because of my post, they prefer to gamble on their own conscience so that when something they never thought happened, no one would be blamed.

Not me entirely but I have two friends who the other win lure in the other. I am quite the opposite because I was actually lured out of gambling when a friend won $205 from staking $2 and then went on to play them on a special feature of game called Aviator on sportsbet, where he eventually lost everything since then I have been scared to go gambling.

Have you ever taught or predicted a game for someone which turn out to be a win,how big was it ?

Yes I have predicted many games for friends which eventually turned outs to be a big win. The recent one I could remember was advicing a friend to play a win or draw for Augsburg against Bayern Munich. And he went on to win I felt like a God that day.

Although I don't bet I have friends that ask me for tips on football bets and once they win they do well to celebrate with me.

If it is something epic or a jackpot, why not? I would share the story with friends because I feel good. Sharing good stories with friends is awesome. And also, most friends treat each other if one of them gains easy money. So, while having a good time, sharing how they got the money would be a topic.

I know I was influenced to gamble because of good stories in gambling and the wins they have. But I do not share stories with non-gambling people because I do not want to be the one to open them to gambling. I know gambling can be addictive, so I avoid influencing non-gambling friends into gambling.

Personally, I've never had a big win as I'm rarely in the casino, only occasionally for entertainment.
But if I heard my friend's story, he managed to get the jackpot from the slot game and it was quite a lot so many were interested in following him. I even got interested and tried it too, but luck won't be copied.
To teach others casino games or some gambling games, of course it can be practiced but luck still cannot be imitated. The more excited for the jackpot, the more losses he has because it is not his luck. My friend might be lucky then and can teach others, but still the end result will be different.
