But hardly it was an amount sufficient to put one in danger if he/she talked about winning it (around $400 at the time of winning). Of course I agree with the OP on that if someone can't stop bragging about winning really big, you are putting your life and the lives of your close ones in danger. Winning big money should be enough to satisfy your ego. Don't be greedy for another satisfaction in the form of admiration by the people you know. 
Topic: Is it good to talk about big gains? - page 8. (Read 3913 times)
I won 0.175 BTC once in a poker tournament, more than 2 years ago, and I think there's no one left among the people I know, who didn't hear this story from me at least once. But hardly it was an amount sufficient to put one in danger if he/she talked about winning it (around $400 at the time of winning). Of course I agree with the OP on that if someone can't stop bragging about winning really big, you are putting your life and the lives of your close ones in danger.

Do you tell others about your big winnings?
Or do you wait for the time to pass and then talk?
Are you bragging about the big winnings or do you want to make a point not to waste your time and money in the casino, but get it already?
Of course it is already known that people like to brag, but is it wise to talk?
In my opinion it is by no means a good idea to talk about big gains, because it can only cause bad things, here are some:
1.Of course, you can be the target of a robbery first.
2. As much as you spend your time and money in the casino, the environment will say that you are addicted and that the gain is nothing.
3. We bring the danger of ourselves and our loved ones, this is in the first place, but these come to the detriment of your safety.
4. It is not good if you plan to have a job and to thrive in it, and your subordinate knows what you are doing.
These are just some of the examples, to hear your opinions, supplement me if I am wrong.

No never but there was a time that I slip and tell them about my winning but I see to it that it happened days or weeks ago, you should never tell about your winnings after you win a game or your so-called close people will just make a loan or people you don't know will get you in trouble, let only your friends hear it.
Even though who can relate will be tempt to do some bad things to you if they know that you won huge money especially in gambling. I considered treating them with some food as a bad thing for some reasons 
.
I know that sharing your winnings in other people is bad but to share it very loudly in a public area? It is not being proud to yourself but being a stupid one because you can be a target for thieves around you. I tried to share my winnings once and the result, I treat them all using my winnings.
I dont want to see other posts of their gaining money. Because it somehow hurts me due to my massive losses last year that makes me stop everything , but I already moving forward and will start to gamble again, but with control in every rolls and games that I will be in. .I know that sharing your winnings in other people is bad but to share it very loudly in a public area?

It just depends where you are talking about it and who are you talking to with it. It is indeed a danger if your are speaking it out loud in public places, especially those places you aren't that familiar. It will be really fun to talk about it with those who can relate.

That would be the dumbest thing to do, sharing it on public places where you do not even familiar with.
It would be like a suicide IMO, as someone who do it will be a target of crime.
Sharing our winning to people we know is fine but we should not tell it in details such as how much we win. Just say that we have just won some money is more than enough.
I already experienced that
2 years ago I got quite a lot of money because it was the first I got it I was too exited to tell all my friends.
And yes you right, one of them ended up being a criminal and stealing my money and cheating.

I have never told anyone else about my gambling winnings, because of the 4 reasons you say that :
1.Of course, you can be the target of a robbery first.
2. As much as you spend your time and money in the casino, the environment will say that you are addicted and that the gain is nothing.
3. We bring the danger of ourselves and our loved ones, this is in the first place, but these come to the detriment of your safety.
4. It is not good if you plan to have a job and to thrive in it, and your subordinate knows what you are doing.
Why also have to say to others? it's just a waste of time if to brag. Moreover, the big one is obtained from gambling, many people do not believe because it is common if people see gambling as a negative thing. Whatever it is I do not want to do a big month if there is no useful information.

Jealously will be the biggest problem that will happen if we tell about our win much money in gambling to other people. Some of them will ask us to buy some food and drinks or buy them something that they want. I already saw a thing that happens to my friends, and he cannot reject what his friends ask, so he invites them to go to the cafe and buy his friends some food.
Some friends tell that winning some money in gambling is not good because that is not from our hard work, but it's because of luck. But after all, that is money for people who needs it.

.Like you, I have experienced it too. There is a time that I tripled my initial account and I shared it to my friends and now they want me to treat them. I can't say no at that time so I treat them but unfortunately, I used most of my winnings in treating them. After that I gambled my remaining money and I lost.
This is the reason why I don't want to share my winnings to them if I win not only in gambling but in other things. I'd rather keep it than sharing it.
Hahaha, I guess you are right
I think not just in gambling, but I am also not telling them about how much money I got from gambling or in trading because they will come to me and ask me to buy foods or go to the cafe. If they can do the same as me, I would love to share my winning in gambling or my profit with them. But unfortunately, not all of my friends can do that, and I can count how many of them will always share what they got in gambling or trading.
So I guess in this matter, I will not share about the winning or the profit to all of my friends, but I will be selective to tells the right people who can do the same thing as me.

Isn't it weird to start talking about your winnings in a public place when the person isn't asked about it? For one to start talking about it in public, it means that they might have been asked about it. Then, one is expected to give fewer details and mot disclosing all.

Indeed this is very danger when you talk about u huge profit in public as you don’t know who is your friend and who is enemy so better avoid this kind of people and don’t share about your money or your earning from gambling with them as they can harm you to get your profit from you that’s why avoid spreading such news and keep secrettalking about this huge earnings from people you really don't know. Sometimes, even you call people as your friend but there's intentions where
money influenced things that they can do for you. In anyhow, keeping yourself safe is best to deal first before anything else.

I know we have to express how happy we are but we have to limit our mouths on where to open it and whom to open it, to avoid chaos to your success. Not all of the people around us are sheep, some of them are fake and their true identity is a goat.

This is true if experienced shared with right people can help them to learn and understand also. Beacuse not if spoken in public places can lead to bad experiences and better to be avoided . Also if their is any particular way where it helps to win to others is also beneficial.
If by talk you sound like boasting and showing off, then that is probably not a nice thing to do. But if you are only talking about it with your family or relatives or very close friends, then I think there is no problem with that. It does not to be that openly talked about as it might only invite some crooks to rob you. Sharing it with your family and close friends is normal.

I do not think it will have a big risk for robbery or other crimes,
The only reason why I hide my big wins, is the jealously which other show when we win a big amount. Our friends and even our near & dear ones, do not accept that we win big amount and become rich. So in order to remain at peace, I never disclose my earnings to anyone and keep them to myself only.

I don't think it's gonna be a problem if you talk about your big gains to your friends or your family, but usually I don't talk a lot about that. If I really earn big, I just chill with it and I just tell them after a period of time, but sometimes I tell my close friends just after I win.
It doesn't matter if only occasionally, because if it is said too often it will only be a bad thing and trigger active debate, especially if it has affected the family economy, they will turn into annoying lecturers when your gambling conditions are in a bad situation. silence is needed and only needs to tell without having to go into detail about how and where the money was obtained. Big gains always keep ourselves focused on making big profits. In reality this is quite complicated thing when we look for big gains out of gambling. Big gains requires big funds to risk, or needs big luck to win jackpot. Talking about big gains isn't a bad thing, but knowing the reality and making decisions is wise.
did you read the OP?or just the title?it is an obvious that you dont even care what is the Body of the thread instead you are just relying on the title.it is about if we win big do we really need to talk about it?ior tell someone?your answer is far too way about the real topic.and this is not a good attitude lol.
I still prefer not to talk about my major gambling profits because people will ruin it and easily make you lose it. I like to be cool and just tell a few people that they're so close to me that if they know later, they won't get upset. This is because people around you can have different reactions. For example, if you make a lot of money out of something they might be trying to steal it or change their opinion about you.
yeah just our family to tell,and not anyone because our lives will be in danger and also our familys life.it doesn't hurt if someone wants to express their excitement because they have already benefited greatly from gambling, but the thing to avoid is not showing off winning via the internet or social media because as you said it is feared that it can invite criminals to steal easily what we have about the victory that we get from gambling
it's the same if expressing it to the people closest to us in the real world, the most important thing is not to express this expression too often because there are still many who place gambling as part of thinking that is not in accordance with what we do. My principle, if too often talk about big gains to others, means that I also must be prepared to say the opposite.Jump to:
