I don't remember the players involved with the match. It was on a Tennis match and the bet value was $1. I lost the bet and this was my betting amount for few days. In the third day won the bet and it was happy to see the bet settled with the winning amount to the account. From there it slowly started with increase in bet value and at some point my focus moved towards Casinos as the result and settlement is instant.

I never tried gambling when I was a kid. It was strange to me until later in life when I was a young man. Obsessed with the testimonials I was getting from a few staff that worked with me, on how someone in some place else won big out of a little stake, I tried my luck on some betting options. Of course there was no speculation or analysis to it but, just some random trying my hands on the options I had before me and surely, I learned the hard way, I lost!
Good thing, my stake wasn't huge but I surely tried some huge stakes at some point and still, I lost. Then I realised gambling was just about the lucky and that doesn't come often. Had to be smart about it.
Back in the days where binary options were really famous! I did the same thing if binary options surely considered 100% as a gambling but if not then i do sports betting in my first attempt back in 2008 i guess where the all england final between chelsea and manchester united.

I was challenged by my neighbor to have a stake on which one going to lift the trophy and how much goals would be scored , i went full lost lol .

At first I played at random, but I either did it for free with money won from a faucet or a signature campaign, or money from a giveaway, you name it. It was always pennies per game until I got a hold of it. Don't bet a lot when you're a beginner but also don't be afraid to try. You can play with just a few dollars. Poke around, try different games, find the ones you like and understand. You usually have to pay for knowledge so be happy this one is so cheap.

it will be safe money and you have nothing to lose if you lose, because the money earned is not from the main job but from Faucet and signature campaign work in this forum. You only need to allocate a few dollars to try gambling games and a large selection of games. Some slot games might be my choice and also set aside for betting on football matches.
and some analysis and management of the number of bets also need to be done, don't play blindly, that would be a bad start.

My first bet was in a local betting shop . My first attempt I did it blindly without having knowledge in sports.  I was thinking I would be able to win but I lost my game.
My first attempt without knowledge when I lost motivated me to learn so I'll be able to win in the next game.

We all have a different experience how we started our first bet. Their are people who started bet without having any knowledge concerning it. Their are some people started with a help from a friend to bet and their are some who took their time to learn before they started paying bet.

How was your first start? Did you play blindly or spent some time to learn.?

As a gambler for over 2 decades, who already gambled at different games, offline, online, and whatever, I can't remember how I start my betting journey. I'm amazed at those who are in gambling for a long but still remember their first betting experience. I just go with the flow.

What I'm sure of is, I did my first betting experience on online fiat sports books.

Here in crypto-betting, my first betting experience was done on Cloudbet, I think way back in 2015.

My first foray into gambling was probably an experience with the lottery or scratchcards at the lowest levels. After that, poker seemed to be the biggest draw because everyone likes to picture themselves as super intelligent and able to master the competition - however it turned out to be a tedious grind, that could be profitable if you dedicated many years worth of learning to it, but it's super easy to lose money the second you get a lapse in concentration. After that "matched betting" made an appearance and while the initial few bets were a bit wasted, it successfully accrued a few hundred for very little effort and the outcome was all guaranteed winnings.

I started placing bets on the Champions League without looking that much into the odds and just going with my knowledge of soccer in general.I was soon hooked up and played every day sport betting for a lot of time until when I started slot machines in the distant year of 2007,played heavily slots until I become addicted,I couldn't wait for my next session to start,I started following casinos where people drink a lot of alcohol as free drinks and smoke a lot,an ambient which does not represent me at all but my love for slot machines back then was so great that I was a regular player in such places,sure there were online slots but very few compared to today providers.

I stopped playing for some years until I started again some years ago with these new slot providers online I was seeing on youtube and their completely different game play dynamics compared to what I used to play,I become hooked right away,even addicted up to the 2019-2020 year but then I had a huge loss and stopped,now I only play once or twice a week and I have full control over my balance.

I had my blast when i started gambling because i was able to won a significant amount out from a blind bet. But seems the beginner's luck ends there because after that, i went through a lot of losses. The reason why i study about gambling from then on and research on some strategies and techniques to create more chances of winning. I was able to win some, and lose somehow too.

Playing on a casino for the first time is not easy and mostly embarrassing because many gamblers will see you and know that you are playing the wrong way. This was my experience before and it took me some time before I finally understand slot machines, this is my first favorite gambling game and until now I’m playing it. There’s always a story to tell about your first time and I think this is also one of the memorable experience of every gambler.

As far as I remember, I did a bet with our local basketball match. It's funny because I don't know who are the players was and I have no idea what are their current standing. It was an absolutely blind bet. I remembered that I did that small bet because my friends was pretty hyped with a certain team and they are betting with each other and I myself don't want to get out of place so I bet by random. I won that bet and all the money that me and my friends won from each other were all spent on our foods as we watch the next game of the night. At the end we all are happy and I guess that's were it started on my journey on betting.
I guess that's the most important thing there, we had fun, making profits is just a bonus. For me, the first time i got into gambling was also memorable. I started with all in betting because of my co workers influence. They also go all in betting and so i just follow. And when i lose, i said to myself i'll never gamble again, but i found myself still gambling up to these days, the only difference is that i'm now wiser and quite more knowledgeable compared before.

Before I started when I was kid, I first observed how other kids play the game. I think card game was my first gambling game. I then ask them to teach me how to play it and then finally I gamble all by myself. Same goes to other games which can only be found on my local.

I think there are no people who do not read the rules or understand how the game is being played before they play gambling because they are also scared of what can happen with their money. If we can't understand how the game is being played then much better if we will just avoid it and move to other games. There are still other more simpler games that will fit on us.

Yes, no idea about gambling before and I just put money. I forgotten the game that I've played for the first time but I just went with the crowd because they're all on it.
The experience of everyone could be that we all made the same mistakes of betting without knowledge but when we lose and then found it as a fun thing, we started to learn about it.
Same with mine too. I just did a random betting with a small amount at first, and then when I happened to lose consistently, that’s the time I started gaining knowledge about gambling and develop my own skills particularly in sportsbetting through my various experiences. Although losing is quite inevitable, but there’s always an edge if you know the game well than just go betting along with the crowd.
With the losses we've made before, that's making us understand what we must do. It's either we continue or just simply stop when it's not working for us at all.
Well, as a beginner, it's unlikely that things will be going to be easy for us as we're still in the process. So, choose the pain that you want, pain from losing money without gaining anything or if you're too persistent, choose money but at the same time have fun and you learn something new.

I've got no idea what odds were and there's no online gambling in our place so it's like someone sets up a gambling area where people can go and bet to whoever has set up a sports to watch for.

From small amounts to big amounts but at most times, the people are only betting with small amounts because life back then wasn't that great and we've just got had enough to live for.

It's like an entertainment but just as usual when it's too much, it's addicted.

I gained when I gambled the first time but followed by losses, I won many bets too though but the losses were much more and the net result was a great loss. I too gained experience and I just left gambling for sometimes before I continue to gamble again. It was on one day that I realised that it is hardly possible to make it in gambling, that it should just be for nothing more than risky little amount of money on it. It was luck the first time that I gambled but that is not what gambling is was what I later knew.

I started with bookmakers, in 2014, EPL. I did not know much about leagues and tournament in football at the time. I registered on a local gambling site, I went to a fiat ATM machine to fund my betting account. I chose four matches with 2 odd included and I won the accumulated bet. That made me think gambling is easy, not knowing it was the beginning of addiction and losses to come.
Your first experience was better than mine, I lost everything in my first gambling attempt and even lost twice on a roll so I never experience any winning in my first three attempts to gamble, but that was in football betting on like dice was my first attempt I made a substantial winning, so from then I realize that football analysis is not as easy as people make it look, and it is easier said than done that is why we have millions of football fans who will never gamble on predicting what the outcome of a match will be in other to be at a safer side and not losing their money and there will rather watch the match and do analysis for fun and nothing else.
His experience is most probably what we call beginner's luck as he got lucky from his first bets. Unfortunately, not all of us experience beginner's luck as most of us lose all of our funds on the first few bets and just continuing gambling as we want to chase what we lose. But still, you were able to experience that luck on other game such as dice which you've won a substantial amount.

Running away from loses is not only the reason that millions of fans that watching football don't bet on it. They have different reasons . Like most may not bet because of their religion, family restrictions and not only because they are scared to lose. I know many fans of football clubs that don't bet on them but they are fully supporting them and buying some of the products from the club like jersey and more others.

As far as crypto as betting on sports bookies? nah, I'm more familiar with the handicaps and the parlays in a fiat casino.

But as far as my first experience, I can't recall it anymore, most probably when I was still in high school when some of us will bring cards at school and we secretly played. That's how I recall my first gambling. So there is money involved and perhaps I will say that I'm familiar with many games because of the influence of my family members. We will just play money at home, I mean my mom, aunts, cousins, everyone, just to have some fun but small money at the sideline.
