There is just nothing people can not say to sabotage your personality once you have made firm.
If he is spotted playing or gambling on poker may not mean that he is addicted to it.
It could be one of his favorite activities which he enjoys at his leisures. Maybe the set of persons in the birthday ceremony was not the kind he could just sit and roll with and have funs out of their get-togetherness.

But anyways... He might actually be addicted but I have not heard of his bad side as Drake being situated excessively of gambling too much.

How do we even have that view to say someone is an addicted gambler?
Is it by steady gambling or by gambling with what is unaffordable to loose?
Because I have not heard of this guy Neymar running bankrupts as a case of his gambling addictions or he has lost opportunities due to distractions of his gambling addictions lifestyles.

A recently viral video shows football star Neymar playing online poker while celebrating his daughter's birthday with a group of other people present.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13299361/Neymar-online-poker-daughter-Al-Hilal.html

This to me goes to show that no one is immune from addiction. Neymar may have largeley solved his money problems but still he doesn't seem to be able to control his time spend gambling. Therefore he's seen utilizing his time very recklessly, prioritizing playing the right cards over living these once in a lifetime precious moments the best he can. And if a multimillionaire can get addicted in this way, anyone can. Consider this before spending too much of your precious time gambling. Put some limits and enjoy responsibly!
Without a doubt this does not really look good for Neymar, I mean if you were to capture him playing at any other time, you may think that he is just enjoying himself and nothing more, so you would have no reason to assume the worst at all, but when he is literally gambling on the birthday of his daughter, this could be a very strong evidence that his gambling is out of control, as there is not really too much of an excuse for a father to do something like this.

I think it is still too early to say whether Neymar is addicted to playing poker or not, only being based on a single rumor. But it would not be surprising if he in fact has developed some mild addiction for card games in online casinos.
Because if his wife budget to gamble, I doubt he will get to reach a state of bankruptcy, still shows nobody is actually safe from getting hooked up by certain casinos games.
Not much to say about it... I personally find it to be distasteful, how he decidedntonplag card games like poker in the same day they were supposed to be celebrating with his daughter, it sounds kind of inappropriate to gamble when one is supposed to have family time and such.

On the other hand he is addicted to being unfaithful.
Neymar is a typical example of person who lives for the world. He 'masters' the material world, having access to all the facilities, pleasures and comfort disponible for wealthy and influent individuals. For that reason, I think your phrase above is totally accurate and summarizes the description of Neymar very well, because when the person focus only on material stuff, he will be easily dragged by addictions and ephemeral pleasures, which don't mean anything on long run, while giving up on his human essence, which involve deep feelings of peace, self-consciouness, welfare which demand sensibility from the individual to be experienced.

If the person loses contact with this part of his existence, inevitably he will become unfaithful, empty, cold and indifferent to people and moments which should be important and full of meaning for him. I guess people start living on an automatic mode, shutting off their conscience more and more each new day and each new bad choice they make for their lives, worsening symptoms of addictive behavior, and even worse: symptoms of unfaithfulness...
I think every human being wants to live a better life in the world so many people strive to reach a higher level of life, myself included.
It's very easy for you to judge people in this context, for me personally this rather than explaining at the level of impact of the Human itself when the position is the same as Neymar is very subjective and human relativism will cause different outputs on what they have done with gambling, whether it's abnormalities or unfaithfulness that may occur as you said, but for me personally this also depends on the response of his environment and also his family regarding the character that is in neymar, maybe you can say it in such a way, such as the popularity of wealth and getting access to all the luxurious facilities and finally plunging into addictions that will cause the bad nature of man to come out, we cannot be sure with just the naked eye in analyzing this kind of thing, but whatever it is called a very bad addiction will turn someone into a bad human being, such as drugs, women and including gambling, if the addiction suffered is in the final stage.

But we need to remember that maybe because Neymar today has many facilities to access all things easily, he is not worried about himself and the future of his family.

Moreover, I noticed more personalities are getting involved in either promoting gambling or getting addicted to some games, however, losing everything to gambling or a small percentage of your stable income isn’t the same at all, so it’s better to think twice before betting and gambling the same way these known personalities does.
They're just caught of the camera but it's for sure that many of them engaged in gambling activities off-cam and didn't caught at all.

Soon, we're going to see more of them and new names but have been in their industries for a very long time. As social media has become the back bone of the entire world and everything can spread like wildfire with just a post away.

And it will be globally posted in split seconds and will become a news headline within the day.

This incident of Neymar and many others like him, does indeed show how addictive behaviors can affect anyone regardless your financial status or being famous. It’s a good reminder of the importance of moderation while gambling. Now when it comes to this news if it’s real or not, I would say he simply failed to separate between his professional and personal life. I think it’s important to prioritize meaningful moments with loved ones and to consider the impact of our actions on those around us, in this case Naymer daughter will see her father less caring, especially that the news stays forever.

I think most of the athletes have their not so dark secret in terms of gambling. When they're still a dreamer and wanting to give the best life for their family, they're able to achieve that by being a star or by just simply signing a contract.

Now after that comes the harder part and that's about how they can contain and control themselves not to be spendthrift with their money. Because when you have the money, everything is accessible and easy to do.

We've got athletes, celebrities and even a commoner becomes addicted so, it's not surprising to see such news about one has seen gambling on some random videos.
As human he ought to have been doing this wey long before he even became a superstar and that's the truth because many people that are actually celebrities now have been living a normal life and the only way maybe they could keep their habits content, sometimes its due to the facts that the available funds was not all that available but it becomes a different story when everything you can think of is at the tip of yours, that time what you do is use the money to gamble and called it having fun.

We've got athletes, celebrities and even a commoner becomes addicted so, it's not surprising to see such news about one has seen gambling on some random videos.

And it's quite alarming to see that it has become so commonplace that a lot of people have become desensitized to it, even thinking that what these athletes do are something to be idolized and in turn, people will also do it even though they don't have the means to do so. The youth is who's the most affected from these activities by these athletes and superstars - and no, this doesn't mean they shouldn't do it, but perhaps people like Neymar should do it privately or not let other people document him doing it.

Then again, it's up to those who watch these guys if they will follow their footsteps even in that direction or not. IMO Neymar isn't doing anything wrong apart from prioritizing his gambling activities over his daughter's birthday, but still it's going to translate to a lot of youths thinking that gambling is cool just because their idol is doing it.
I agree, since they're idolizing him and there's a thought that "our idol does it so it's common and we'd do it too". This kind of thinking isn't new to the fans and as idols, they really have to set example.

But at the same time, we can't invade their privacy and whatever they do in their private time outside the sports that they've been doing or passion or career.

It's just sad that many kids are fans of him and other athletes as well and anyone who's being looked up to and then these kids might materialize someday that they'd gamble in support to their favorite athlete and team.

The question is whether the Poker done by Neymar is gambling or a regular Online Poker game, because there are a lot of Online Poker games that do not use money or bets in it, they just play normally to fill their empty time with social media users or anonymous on the application, it might happen right?
We haven't gotten direct confirmation from Neymar on this, whether he is gambling on poker games or just playing without any gambling elements in it.

But given that he has lost a lot of money in the past, it is most likely gambling and he has an addiction, but all this is not yet clear because the mainstream media always adds a lot of spice to the news they write that is interesting to read.

I think we as fans, we over react sometimes because I don't see as a news. I first saw the video on X platform by some random following people. We forgot that these people, footballers we are always attacking are just human like us, they just had the opportunity to be in a top place and public figures but that doesn't mean they don't have life after their professions. If he plays poker all day, is there anything wrong with that? He enjoys his thing and I don't think that started today, if he has faced addiction since the beginning of his career, people would have noticed that around him. Beside, we forgot that footballers are not allow to gamble on sports betting, so casino games are the only option for him and that's what he loves doing.


People even forgot the fact that he has been in holiday for months now, I think been an outside person this inner stay must have been boring, it's better to gamble and have fun than go to parties where people will still complain about his extravagant and money spending life.

It's worrying, for Neymar's future. Remember regardless of the amount of money he has, when done to gamble without good control then it will be easy to run out. I'm afraid it will make Neymar poor. It should be that he improved his physical and mental abilities after the injury. He can prepare for a coach's license. But I hope the incident does not illustrate that Neymar is addicted to Poker. But that's just a bit of a way to get rid of boredom and the media gives news that doesn't match the facts. Maybe we should hear Neymar's statement directly.

Many people here seem to be of the sentiment that Neymar can't be addicted and this thread is an exaggeration.
Well, look, in our case the evidence is right in front of us. He ha playing poker while a precious moment with his daughter is proceeding. It doesn't matter if he wants to be a poker star, it doesn't matter if he has a sponsorship. Probably he will even never ever have financial issues due to his worldwide fame. But the issue is different here. Addiction also comes at the expense of one's time and Neymar here clearly is acting improperly.

We see it on video, what else do we need to see in terms of evidence? Clearly he is doing something that's not good and it's worth pointing out and discussing since he is a public figure and also chose to share this moment with the world on his own. Or at least through his family. It's fair criticism and nothing too over the top based on what evidence we have seen too.

The involvement of world football players in the world of gambling, as far as I know, is not a new phenomenon, we have often seen things like this, even though football players are strictly prohibited from being involved in gambling or in any other form of game, As far as I know, clubs, players and so on/they have strict rules. If they are caught, they can be punished and receive serious sanctions for the player.

The case of involvement of world football players is not only done by Neymar, I have seen Zaniolo, Fagioli, Tonali, they were involved in gambling scandals and they created problems, especially in the Italian football league, and they were punished at Zaniolo's trial for saying that they played gambling games like poker and blackjack, this means, whoever is a football player as I said above, if they are caught and end up in court.

Not only the three of them or Neymar stumbled into gambling, here too I see 7 Soccer Players who had Gambling Problems., Maybe many others have the same fate, caught in gambling cases, especially football players.

Please, a whole lot of other people have done WORSE during their daughter's birthdays, or for any other relatively important event even. And addiction? Really? Does that mean me using my phone during my parents' birthday (don't have a kid yet) means I'm addicted to my phone? A real addict in the first place wouldn't even be in the damn birthday party, my mans there celebrating, singing along with her, I don't think there's really an issue here.

It's just journalists being journalists imo. And twitter people being twitter.

LOL, exactly what I was thinking.
When I read the thread name I thought to myself, "well let's see what this person came up with", and I wasn't disappointed.

Maybe this video was even yet another marketing stunt. Maybe not even maybe.  Wink

Neymar can do whatever he wants, nobody can judge him for anything. As far as I can tell, by seeing him play online, he is not the best player anyway, he just wants to have some fun and doesn't take it serious. Being super rich of course also plays a lot into that.  Grin

Maybe.
But what is just minutes of being with your little girl and celebrating without the phone on your side? Will it really hurt him to just put the phone down for a moment and focus on his daughter?
Yeah, let's say he ain't a gambling addict but this just showed the importance of time and effort for your kid. We got to learn something from that clip and it's being there not just literally being there but also focusing on what's in front of you because those moments happen just once in our life.
I have sons and whenever they celebrate their birthdays I put everything down for them until they get exhausted and that's when I will use the time on whatever must be done, either work, habit, hobbies, or whatever it is. As much as possible, I am away from my computer and my phone is used to catch the moments of them having fun. Not gambling.

If you call this addiction, I might fault it to some extent because we have not seen Neymar manifest some negative characters that is common to people battling addiction. His choice of poker might just be that he derives fun from it and probably gambling for fun and not the money. Addicted gamblers have desperation as a common attributes, I did not see that in Neymar. Seems that whenever a popular figure indulges in gambling, the media will have all negative things to say, maybe they feel gambling is merely for the poor.

Can anyone detect what platform he is playing on? He's a PokerStars ambassador right? It would be interesting to discover that he is using a competing casino.  Cheesy


Looks like he is using World Series of Poker(WSOP) base on the color blue theme of the game but I can be wrong since Pokerstars stable varies depending on the game type.

However there’s a high chance that he is playing on Pokerstars since he has a perks playing on it due to his endorsement to this poker site. I’m surprised how Pokerstars already evolved since the last time I visit it. It offers now different casino games and not pure poker games which cool.

I try to play the chips mode there’s only few players that playing on this mode.
