it do not matter if its just for fun betting a small amount at an unreasonable bet like you mentioned. sometimes i think life is also like a gamble between being successful or only getting worse. sometimes I also bet for fun with my friends but dont just use money but bet with cigarettes and bet on the number behind the license plate of a vehicle that will pass and its very fun.
Im sure that some of the people here have all made unreasonable bets like this, but the reality is that its very exciting and sometimes we as bettors need another betting sensation, not because of addiction, but a different betting atmosphere.

I often do that like you do and it's a lot of fun because it's a mystery that we don't know which vehicle will pass. Besides, it's a small stakes game between our friends and us so there are no regrets whatsoever. And if we play gambling at an online casino, it's really best to use small betting money to avoid big losses. Especially if we have often had the experience of losing playing gambling at the casino, we want to avoid big losses. But indeed, not many of us have succeeded in winning a lot of money from gambling, so we must be able to control ourselves while gambling.

Outside of sports betting and online casino games, did you know that there are other things you can bet on?

There is nothing more exciting than betting on sports and playing in a casino. But it does not rule out the possibility for me to make bets in other forms and usually I do this with my friends to add to the excitement when holding meetings.

To just fill the atmosphere so you don't seem bored, betting is the solution so that the atmosphere can seem more exciting. Or when holding a meeting at a place to eat, the loser has to bear all the orders of friends. And usually we play light games on cellphones like ludo and others. And it is proven that this can add to our excitement when we meet with friends or when we do small hanging out, even though sometimes there are disagreements, I consider this part of the fun that I get.

Some of the things that are listed in your list take years or even a lifetime to know the results I would not even bet on

Quote from: Davidvictorson on July 24, 2023, 08:14:48 PM

13 - The End of the World: As crazy as it may sound, there is an online betting site for this. People predict when the world would end. Don't know if they will be around for the prize money if they eventually win.

That's crazy it will take hundreds of years or thousands of years that's a nonsense bet We can add hundreds of bets to the list and in fact, I have one and that is a fight between two spiders and how many minutes between one spider beat the other one, this kind of bets is more entertaining because you'll have the result in a matter of minutes and not wait for days, months years or even a lifetime to know the result.

All of the listed other things, suggested for gambling by the OP are basically events. Events would happen once in a while and these events won't make a gambler happy but an occasional gambler can give them a try. I am not against such betting but sports betting is far more entertaining than any other betting game. Casino games are the second most played games for the purpose of entertainment and for me, they give you an adrenaline rush in the comfort of a home.

But gambling like that can sometimes provide new experiences for gamblers who may be a bit bored playing gambling with the gambling games they are used to. They want to bet on something different from everyone else, so they may try betting once or twice to see what it's like to bet on different things. A bet like that may already have fans like other gambling games. And betting like that requires a lot more knowledge because we have to look at the news out there to get more clues.

I didn't know there was quite a lot to gamble on outside of sports, even funnier they gamble on UFOs and Kim Jong-Un LOL. It seems that people are so bored that they are willing to use their money to gamble on things that are quite absurd above.
But the question is are they sure that they will still be alive to be able to see the end result of their gamble? like to gamble for UFOs? i think those who are betting on this stuff are pretty sure they will live a very long life LOL.

Most of these bets are done barely for fun, a person doesn't expect to live up to the moment to see if their bet will be a win or a loss. A lot of people bet on things like politics, like who will be the next president, etc. And there are a lot of other things that might be used by a sportsbook or a casino platform to allow their gamblers to bet on, and maybe not a lot of people, but some people do bet on things outside sports only to have some fun when they have extra money.

Personally, I feel it's nothing more than wasting money, but it generally depends on an individual's personal likes and preferences about where they want to spend their money, a lot of people like discussing politics so they do like it when they are given the opportunity to bet on their favorite politicians.

While I agree that it makes most sense to bet on sports and other similar activities, as they are competitions in which an effort is made for everyone to follow the same rules, something that is not necessarily true on many of those events.

At the same time if casinos are adding those weird bets then this is because there is a large enough market to justify doing so, and in that case those bets may be more popular than what we thought, in my case sometimes I take the time to make a bet on politics, and while I do so for the fun I can get out of them, over the years I have gotten some wins that surprised me.

I think this kind of betting aren't interested for many gamblers because it's really unpredictable, many bettors tend to bet on sports where it's more predictable and they already follow the team or player for a long time. This will make them more familiar with the match and able to predict better everyday because they keep learning and experienced.

So far I only saw one gambling site who offer such kind of events. I guess you are right that it wasn't totally appealing to the majority. They might be unpredictable so their odds must be high as well. They can be a good addition to try our luck aside from doing a long parlay if it's sport betting or hunting for a hundred and thousand multipliers in limbo, crash and mines if it's a casino game.

I remember when I was still young me and my friends made the same betting scheme. Like for example who ever predict the color of the next vehicle that will come will get all the money that are in stake. We also do this on other things. It was fun. Oh man, I miss being a kid again Wink

I also think they bet unusual things just for fun and don't care about the outcome, especially if they don't know whether they are alive or dead when the results come out. If they only bet for fun, they should also be able to think of gambling as entertainment and to get pleasure but in reality, there are still many who want to get money from gambling Grin

Maybe it's okay if we occasionally bet on unusual things and maybe it can also provide more entertainment for us. So it's normal for people to bet on things like that to get entertainment from their bets.

You can even bet that you are not going to gamble anymore Cheesy

, here in our country this is a big joke among gamblers I always encounter this among gamblers.
Anything that you can think of is possible that offer challenges and there are two or more results.
I remember two guys who just want to gamble but they do not have cards or dice to use to gamble so they up betting on rocks, scissor and hand game, so when it comes to betting your imagination is the limit you can bet in instant results or you can bet on something that will take days.

Anything could be gambled about. Difference is the volume and interest to a certain topic. Ever wondered why not all games are having tournaments? Or not all sports are being displayed with sportsbetting platforms? 'coz it does not have enough fanbase or community to support the interest. With reggards to odd topics such as Celebrity's death, it would be possible IF you will have someone or group of people who you could /have be in contrast with. It will all start with two or more different stands in a single topic and the will to put money or anything in exchange for the consequence of having the wrong standpoint or guess. Therefore, anything is simply possible to be a betting topic.

^Definite right and that was also what I am thinking while reading the OP.
The possibility of something being gambled on depends on the level of interest and the size of the community supporting it. Not all games have tournaments or all sports have betting platforms because they might lack a substantial fanbase. As for odd topics like Celebrity's death, if there are people or groups willing to take opposing stands on the matter, it becomes a potential betting topic. In essence, anything can become a subject for betting as long as there are people ready to wager on different outcomes.

not totally sports but they are listed in the events of bookmakers. every year i think there are threads that will be created for the Oscars awards just like Presidential Elections which every 4 years another will come up.

the most famous in my country is cockfighting, the government somehow makes it illegal but we're still betting it live on the arena and even online.

Same here! Cockfighting is a pretty well-known sport within Southeast Asia if I'm not mistaken, so I didn't really go so far as to include it in my previous posts of ridiculous gambling and sports that I have made bets on. Unofficial backyard bets on chess games and local basketball games are also a commonplace in the Philippines, so I think that warrants a spot here too. But cockfighting takes the cake in popularity. During 2020 at the height of the pandemic when the rich had nothing to do with their money and the poor had no money to work with, opportunists took the chance to open sites that live stream cockfights with bet placement options available straight from there, that's where I lost some of my money lols cause I was none the wiser back then on how the cockfighting works.

Of course there are these bets that seems out of theusual for casinos and sportsbook but then, where do we classify them as they still come into the gambling field. Is there a name tag for these sort of bets?

Quote from: Davidvictorson on July 24, 2023, 08:14:48 PM

4 - Presidential Elections: There is already a thread here for betting on who is most likely to become America's next president. I guess other countries would have a version of this too.

I only got to find out about these sort of bets over the election that brought Biden into power. It was almost common to have it pop on most betting site as this was really a dull for the giants as both sides proves to be each others equal. The odds wasn't too different between them both buy still, I didn't give it much attention.

This sort of bet haven't proved to be very lucrative or profitable given the seasonality of it which explains why, it isn't so popular.

That's very true. There are even games that are not competed in the Olympics, they are more played in the locals. Some sports have more fans watching them because the sport is also loved by other countries. Cricket for instance was just imported by the Brits to India which the Indians also like playing.

Presidential Election is listed in bookies I guess because the majority likes to feel vindicated when their president won. I myself have tried this after all we all like talking about politics. But betting when The End of the World comes is the craziest.

Indeed, the world of betting sometimes seems just crazy. I can understand when gamblers try to predict who will be the next president, but trying to predict the end of the world, the appearance of aliens or the death of famous personalities is quite controversial entertainment. If it can be called entertainment at all. I think such bets are made when there is nothing to do or in alcohol intoxication.

I consider seriously only betting on sporting events. All the rest is more like clowning.

Lots of crazy forms of gambling has been existing for a long time already as there are also tons of people who loves thrill and excitement. There are also weird underground gambling games that we aren't fully aware of. Politics, economics, social media, international pageants are also part of the betting games these days. It might sound weird but most people who have their interest on the latest events usually fall for it.
As for me, sports betting is fair and realistic since we could have enough basis to rely on. No wonder why lots of gamblers are also into it. Well, we have different preferences but as long as we are betting on a decent game, I don't think there would be any issue or problem with our gambling journey.

I love politics bets! Here in Italy It was some Easy since we haven't a premier voted directly for some years Wink

BTW, in theory and in practice Roll Eyes

you can bet on any event. just find a counterparty who accepts the bet.

for example, exchanges have greatly expanded this possibility but some cryptocurrencies provide this chance even with "extreme" consequences (for example, offering large sums as a payout in the event of a death...)

Usually people who are always looking for new experiences will be interested in betting bets like that, but for those who don't want new experiences in their way of gambling, of course they only gamble on sports that they understand, as I did, betting on what we only know is very difficult to predict, especially betting on bets that we don't know the knowledge of may be even more difficult.

I like to get new experiences in gambling but I don't bet on bets like this, maybe I will be interested in other sports betting besides football, so far I only know about football betting and if I want a new experience I want to know a lot about other sports such as basketball so that there can be a variety of my bets in sports. My advice is also never to try a bet that you don't understand the statistics for.
