Be careful who and where you talk about your success in gambling, you may just be encouraging an addicted gambler to continue.
I didn't like sharing my wins or losses with everyone because I like keeping it secret. I can comfortably share my wins with only people that are close to me like my relatives and friends. Anybody who is engaging in gambling should know that other people's stories shouldn't determine how they gamble because wins are unpredictable. These stories could serve as a motivation for us not to give up, however we should gamble within our means. I don't also think that an experienced gambler will be moved by these stories because he has understood how the gambling space works.

Another reason why broadcasting your win is not appropriate is because of safety reasons. You might be a target of criminals if they know that you have won big.

You are right that gamblers should be careful about who they are telling their story of winning, it could be people who just started out in gambling or it could be people who do not know about gambling but tempted to do so because they become inspired by what you're showing them.
In the end, you get the blame for misleading these newbies.
Some of the wins that are publicized on social media might even be fake, which is why it shouldn't be a motivating factor. We have seen cases where some casinos partner with celebrities to promote the gambling firm by showing their wins and losses to their followers on social media. This is why newbies should be careful not to believe everything they see on the internet.

but we cannot dictate to someone not to share their success story with others, because it is their right to share their success story and whether it will have a positive or negative impact on other people is none of their business.

because it's quite funny when someone shares their success story in their gambling life, and someone reads it and uses it as motivation for his gambling, but unfortunately he fail and end up spending a lot of money without getting anything. but can the person who shared the story be blamed? i don't think so, because he only shared his story, the one who is to blame is the person who used the story as motivation for himself because he was not wise in acting and thinking.
This is what im saying that we are free to express our feelings and emotions on which it is really just that normal on the time that we do have some wins on playing gambling. No one would really intentionally sharing up their success stories just to make someone desperate on playing gambling or making them impulsive but rather it would really be just that normal that they would really be happy
on the time that they do make up some hits.So whether we dont really like for those things to be said then it cant really be just that stopped for someone to tell on what they do feel and what are the things that they do have in mind. So for someone who do be able to hear out those kind of boast of winnings then it would really be up to us whether we do let ourselves getting impulsive or not.

Your success story when shared indiscriminately may trigger and motivate this addicted gambler battling to stop to want to keep gambling, having the believe that their time is close. Be careful who and where you talk about your success in gambling, you may just be encouraging an addicted gambler to continue.

It's very tempting to brag about your winnings because not every day do you get to win, in our gambling journey there are more losses than winnings and to boast about our ego and to make it appear that we are doing good we tend to brag about our winnings, we have seen this happening also here in Bitcointalk, posting their winning telling people this is to inspire and not to brag but anyway you look at it it's meant to brag.

You are right that gamblers should be careful about who they are telling their story of winning, it could be people who just started out in gambling or it could be people who do not know about gambling but tempted to do so because they become inspired by what you're showing them.
In the end, you get the blame for misleading these newbies.

That's true there are many selfish people around us who are getting jealous from the others success so if we think about this cost then yes not everyone deserve to hair a person winning in gambling.  I will also say one thing that there are also lot of people that who learn wrong think and become addicted on gambling for saying others success. So I am agree with your words that not everyone deserve to hear your winning in gambling.

Gambling wins is not even something to share to others, how will this motive anyone? When it's not a degree or a badge of honor, or even a safe way to success, if you win big today from gambling it doesn't mean you won't be broke again, and some people made millions from gambling only to lose everything back to gambling again, success from gambling is not something to celebrate.

If I win big I will rather keep it a secret, and that's why I choose online gambling, I don't want anyone to know that I am into gambling, so I have no reason to tell anyone that I win a lot from gambling, you are right that this can motive the stupid ones, because gambling is a game of luck, how can you be motivated by something that's all about pure luck?

That obvious because it's also combines with the fact that people don't care too much about the wins of any stranger that would talk to them, it's none of their business and it's not your duty to tell them anything lest you want to look like a piece of shit that's bragging about the stuff that they do then by all means be my guest to be an arrogant asshole. Also, it's unlikely that your depressed friend would get more depressed about talking to them about your wins.

Your point is on the right track. Yes in gambling we really got to mind the way we talk expecially when we are talking to a fellow gambling so just imagine someone that have lose alot of funds in gambling and you telling he or she about your wins in gambling that may cause them gambling which can lead them to getting addicted to it. Like there's this time I was planning to give gambling some breaks then my friends where talking about people wins and was like is it not same gambling we doing then, for I to take my break I continue and the losses were more than my few profits so was kinda frustrating.

Every story you tell someone can either be a motivation or something to get them depressed. I have been thinking about this and I'd like to pass this advice to every serious gambler in this platform who has won a substantial amount of money from gambling, not to share their success story about winning to everyone and in every place. You do not know the story of every gambler, and on the face some gamblers may just look alright but in deep down they are in debt, some depressed due to addiction to gambling that is destroying them and has made them plan to quit. Your success story when shared indiscriminately may trigger and motivate this addicted gambler battling to stop to want to keep gambling, having the believe that their time is close. Be careful who and where you talk about your success in gambling, you may just be encouraging an addicted gambler to continue.
I think this is absolutely true and not just for gambling. In general, for almost any activity related to receiving money or losing money. The last thing you should do is discuss all the little details of your game with your family. If you control yourself in gambling or, for example, trading, if you limit your losses and expenses, then there is no point in discussing your failures with anyone again. You will only hurt yourself. You will find out what a fool and loser you are, although you may know it yourself at the moment. Of course, they won’t tell you anything new, but your motivation will begin to fall, and you may even get depressed. It is also not advisable to talk about winnings.

Success stories will always be different from the perspective of the listeners.
Yes, it can be positive or negative but if your purpose is to educate and inspire then just stay positive and your listener might still find a good lesson on your story. Though if the addicted gambler gets inspire to gamble more, i believe the problem is still with him and not yours anymore as your intention is clean and your purpose is positive.

When it comes to gambling, telling people about only the positive side( your winnings) may not help them. It's better the knows the two sides of your gambling stories so they won't be carried away by only the success story you told them alone.

Only share your winnings with the person that you think gives you support as these are people who will appreciate your winnings. In fact, there is no reason to tell everyone because they don't like hearing it (this is very usual in our place) instead, they are happy to hear your losses. Many people make assumptions or rumors when something good things happens to us so have to avoid it. Let them speculate...that's it.

We'd rather keep a distance from other people and keep it private. Maybe a small celebration within the family is enough.

Not everyone who hears about achieving big wins from gambling will make them feel depressed or jealous because there are also many gamblers who have skeptical attitude and don't care about whatever happens to other people, whether they win big or lose.
But for those who feel depressed or feel jealous of other people wins, it may be because there is losing streak that occurs and they hope for big win but fail.
This really affects person psychology and mentality because they will think that they have failed, they cannot get the victory that they have really hoped for for long time.
Conditions like this are very dangerous because they will cause quite significant negative effects such as not having confidence in their own abilities and they can do careless things such as spending more money or following other people ways of playing and betting carelessly without any consideration.

The biggest concern is not about those who are motivated and can become addicted to gambling but that they can be more than an addict.
Moreover, when we get big win and it is known by many people it will also be very dangerous for ourselves because it can lead to crimes such as robbery or confiscation, we must always be careful in sharing winning information with anyone.

Maybe for someone who can win at gambling it can be a matter of pride and this will definitely be told to friends, relatives or social media. It is true that thing related to someone enjoyment will definitely cause the envy of other people who can't get it, but we can't forbid someone not to show off their winnings to the general public because it is their own right. This is indeed good advice because your goals is not to needs other people to know about the life we live whether we are successful or not.

But what is called human nature is that even though we share our defeated with the general public, there are still bad comment, not concerned but also making fun of them because they feel that this mistake was a stupid mistake, for those who share stories about success in gambling, they are not immune from people bad words. Those who don't like us will still hate, people who like us will be happy with our success. Indeed, for people who are addicted or for people who gamble, this can be a reference for them to continues gambling, but I am sure not everyone think that gambling it will definitely provide the same profit because everyone has different luck and it is not certain that they will be lucky.

Actually I think in this problem it is difficult to control, or that means not everyone will think that the winning information they share with others can trigger or thwart someone's process to stop gambling, they will not think to this point and they just assume that something like this is normal and no problem to do and share with others, especially some of their closest friends. So maybe in my opinion in the problem of its impact depends on someone who listens to it, if indeed they remain ordinary and do not feel motivated to return to gambling in the sense of having assertiveness in the process of getting out of the gambling zone then obviously they will be fine, and maybe what the OP means is that it refers more to some people who are easily tempted by the victories that other people or their friends have managed to achieve so that they return to getting involved in gambling, so this depends on how someone can maintain their assertiveness in planning to be able to stay in the process of getting out of gambling activities.

I think there are times when when we tell the winnings we get by gambling to other people, it may make them motivated or it can also make them upset because they don't get the winnings like we do. I also have a friend who always gambles and if he gets a good moment, let alone a win, of course he doesn't forget to screenshot what happened to tell others, what I'm afraid of is when someone who is both gambling but only one person gets the win and he shows the win to others I'm afraid that other people will be motivated by thinking "he can just get a win, why can't I". and this makes them motivated which can eventually lead to gambling addiction.

I myself always see my friend showing off his winnings but I am not motivated because I know gambling is a game of luck and also probability that makes everyone will not definitely get a win in gambling.

I'm very careful about whom I talk to when it comes to my gambling activity much more on my winnings, I don't talk to strangers or a gambler whom I just met, gambling conversations should be with your close gambling friends who know you personally, its never my intention to encourage anyone to keep on gambling I always emphasize that it takes luck, courage and hard work through analysis to be able to win huge amount of money, so if they can't do this better treat gambling as entertainment.
I also emphasize that you should prioritize having fun while waiting for your opportunity to win.

I’m the one that usually share story of success here because this is the only place I can share my feelings because my family and close friends doesn’t know that I’m gambling. This is a gambling discussion while your request is the one being indiscriminate because this board is dedicated for gambling discussion.

People with gambling problem shouldn’t be hanging out here if they are really depressed when they saw someone success story. I believe they are the one that needs to getaway here and not people like me that share gambling story for discussion. I’m not really sure what’s your goal on creating this topic on a gambling discussion board.

I’m not even sure why this kind of discussion get tons of response and questionable support. It’s like asking not to smoke on smoking area just because non smoker is hanging out on that smoking area.  Undecided

I think there is no point in sharing my success story in gambling, let alone the wins I get and then sharing them with other people, because I prefer to gamble for myself so I only want the wins and losses I get only for myself, no matter what other people want. know about me, of course I won't share anything about my gambling, which only my wife knows and no one else knows except my gambling friends who have stopped gambling.

OP's words are correct. The point is, never share anything about your winnings, keep it to yourself because it could have a negative impact on other people who we don't necessarily know, they are struggling to stop gambling, whereas when they see our winnings, they will want to gamble again. if you keep it to yourself it would be even better.  Grin

Yes those who happily share their gambling success stories are really addicted to gambling because they enjoy those winnings with great joy. They share their success stories but never their losses.  So if one hears someone's success story and thinks that gambling is a very easy thing and winning here is a very wrong thought. And those who think like this are attracted to gambling and rush into gambling without thinking about anything. And they gradually become addicted to gambling and lose everything in gambling

I don't think that sharing your success story should be taken like that by those who are struggling because of their habits. It is not your problem if they are in debt because of gambling. And don't let others cut your fun and happiness to share what you have achieved, you can share it to anybody as you wish and you're not going to let them cargo their burdens upon you when you're just there to share what you have won and the amount you profit. But anyway, it is to each their own and if OP thinks that it's not right to share it like that when you have no idea what others are dealing with, it's just best to keep yourself lowkey.
Indeed will not be the winner's problem. It is not being insensitive, the ones who are taking it negatively, does. For sure we know to ourselves that upon entering this industry, luck won't be equal to all of us and that there'll be times fortune would be hard to most of us. If you did not have this mindset then you are wrong in the first place. It also depends on how the message is delivered and how it is being received; always a two way interaction I guess.
And if that person is the one to engage and start the conversation, it's not your fault if you've told him good winning stories of yours. Maybe actual on that day or from the past and it's not your problem if currently that guy is struggling or has got problem. But if he's not the one to start the conversation and you're the one that just want to tell it, you'll notice it as well that they will feel a bit uncomfortable with your talks. And when that happens, that's the time for you to just walk away and lead the conversation into an end because you want no drama and you just want good vibes because of how you've won on that day.
