Topic: Out of curiosity, how much you wagered recently? - page 3. (Read 507 times)

Your statement is quite reasonable my friend, it is true that it seems that they see the table at gambling as a place to compete in financial strength between them and others, and obviously as I said earlier that there is no point for us to compete like that anyway, because as you said everyone who has different finances will also be different in making decisions, especially to choose the level of risk he will take, none other than they do that because to balance their finances with the amount of money they have to account for in gambling if they end up losing.

True, basically in my opinion the role of management is very important and becomes the main thing in any field or activity that we do including gambling as well, in this way then you will be able to balance everything according to your financial condition, and also yes it will help you to be a responsible gambler by only allocating the amount that you can be responsible for whatever the final result is especially losing. Yes, that's right, we must be able to overcome all the selfish feelings or greed that arises from some temptations, some can make it through and some fail, and for those who fail usually they will enter the addiction phase. So only those who can judge and choose between wanting long-term pleasure or great defeat.

It's not a figment, if you see a Streamer betting sponsored with big money and everyone already knows that it is money from the casino where there is a collaboration with the casino where he plays there to promote it too, all of us as long-time gamblers probably know about how marketing carried out by them is because casinos recruit streamers and influencers to promote their casinos by streaming and displaying lots of wins and big bets.

Streamers and influencers will not show big losses because that will obviously make people hesitate to gamble, so everything must be displayed well showing very big wins and bets so that other users will follow by gambling with bigger bets because they hope to get good luck. same by that streamer. but in fact they will get a defeat they did not expect.

A common mistake is to see the gambling table as a war of money. People with bigger wallets use a different method to measure risks. Matching bets is a Sisyphean task that often forgets about the fun and luck that are at the heart of gambling. Self-governance over bets is a very important problem. This freedom is what makes gambling safe. This keeps you from losing control, which happens a lot after big wins. Being in psychological conflict with yourself is like fighting to stay inside your own limits. In this story, the amount of the bet doesnt matter. The story about self-control and happiness wins. If its the money, let happiness be the only thing at stake. Winning is short-lived, but playing with joy and moderation will last forever.

But people who use gambling to make money should already know and understand that the purpose of gambling is to have fun so even if they use a lot of money like rich people who gamble, they won't necessarily be able to make money. They must also understand that they can experience heavy losses that can cost them their money without any return from gambling. We cannot follow people who use a lot of money just for gambling because we must always limit the amount of money, especially since we have daily needs that we must fulfill. By using gambling properly, we will not spend too much money on gambling because we always remember that gambling is just for fun.

Details of agreement is a personal matter so we will never know it but as long as the streamer is recently known that he carry the Stake logo, then for sure he is still under the contract of Stake. And yeah, I'm also sure that most of those money at least have come from Stake and not on his own pocket because man, that was pretty huge lol.

Even the legit millionaires or those who don't have a connection with a gambling company can't make it possible even though they are only playing to increase their wagers. Hiring a streamer is a part of promotion but what we are talkin here is only the wager amount. I mean may be most of it are still losses, so that is not enough to convince the people to join Stake.

Basically, gambling was created for the purpose of having fun, not to gain additional income. Indeed, there are some people who use gambling for their additional income, but with the caveat that they can master gambling because if with capital they hope to win without knowing the tricks or strategies, it will be in vain unless if you really experience luck, because as we know, gambling is a game where it is not certain that you will wins or lose, so we can not expectation anything too much from gambling.

I don't know, I don't think that gamblers are keeping a log of their gambling money, on how much they spent. And if I remember correctly, we have a similar thread before or at least asking if we keep track of everything, or if there is a logs that we have and most answers no.

As in this case, it's obvious that he is being sponsored by a gambling site, so he might or can play as much as he want, whether it is with his real money or not, that is the big question. Others might have doubt that he spent that big in gambling, otherwise if he didn't he could be a millionaire or billionaire by now.

If gambling was to be done in a way that they announced how much someone has bet publicly, I would have tried to gamble and be in competition with other people who bet big. But in the case of gambling, almost everyone has their bets unannounced to everyone. That makes gambling less competitive and one will be focused on their own bets, not on others(You focus on the amount you spend on gambling while I focus on mine too).

In conclusion, everyone who gambles will not do what others do. Some people don't like stressing themselves to be competitive in gambling with others since it involves money. They try to gamble with the little they have and they are happy about that.

He is. They even say it in the article: Stake.com has faced scrutiny in the streaming industry for its practice of sponsoring creators and encouraging them to gamble on its platform.
I doubt that even half of this money was really his. He's playing for free and getting profit from twitch views while the sponsor gets the attention it needs and hungry people ready to try out exactly what made the streamer win. Both sides are happy.

It is too hard to compete with people who are sponsored by  a casino.  It is like trying to stop the flow of water by our bare hand.  It was not surprising to see streamers to have a huge amount of bet wagered in a casino since these streamers are betting thousands of dollars per bet.

Just like the earlier replies, I am not competing with anyone on wagering since I only enjoy my gambling activities with the little amount I allocated to my gambling activities.  With the casino behind these huge wage bettors, even if we have Billions of dollars, we cannot compete with them because their source of fund will never get depleted.

I only wagered like $230 for two months. Never played that much in a casino recently, as I've focused more on sports betting and watching some games rather than play blindly and not get something from what I spent time and money from. Trainwrecks is paid by gambling platforms and other brands to bet on casinos and stream it on a live streaming platform to attract people to gamble, so he's literally not spending his own money on most of these instances as that's already covered for him. You cannot compete with these streamers, they have their funds secured and are still getting something even though they blow their own bags in one go.

Till this day it's hard for me to believe that how much you wager is what will determine if you will win it not, someone told me this is the case, that if you risk higher money you will likely get lucky instead of using small amount, but those who are still using small amount still have their lucky days isn't it?

Hearing this makes me believe that every gamblers have different mindset when gambling, imagine what this fella told me, it's nothing but another good reason to get addicted to gambling and end up hurting your life in the process,

Back to the question that OP is asking, I don't wager less than $20 and when there is enough money to use then I have use a little over a 40 to gamble, I still end up losing on every rounds that I played, if you are not ready to lose money do not gamble, it seems losing is far more certain to happen than to win, the last time I won last was last week, since then it's nothing so far, the hard thing we got to life with as a gambler.

Create a boundary between your life and your gambling habit, you will know if you are already crossing the line and you will immediately correct yourself, it helped a lot of time.

Yes, it is very difficult to beat or even just to rival the amount of their bets, of course it is because the financial differences or finances are very different, they have very good finances in their lives that make the amount of bets that we consider very large according to them is normal and not too meaningful. Besides, I think it's pointless to compare the betting amount of each individual and on the other hand I also won't care too much about it because this is gambling that only relies on luck, and also on the other hand there is no guarantee for anyone even if they bring a large budget amount to be able to get a win.

Basically every gambler has the right to set whatever amount of bets they will budget on their gambling, and the best thing is as you said it is absolutely true, responsible and wise gamblers are those who can or only allocate money that they can be responsible for whatever the results are, it's better like that than we feel pressured by putting large amounts but the final result always loses. Especially if you come just for fun then I think don't care about the amount of the bet, but prioritize your fun, after all you are not looking for victory either. Yes that's right guys, we have our own reasons for what's best for us.

Instead of competing with those who have more money than us, we should gamble just for fun and not compete with them. So we don't need to spend a lot of money on gambling, let alone competing with rich people. We must be able to allocate our money for many things, including gambling, especially if we only have limited money. And it's true that the casino doesn't see who the gamblers are who gamble in the casino, so the casino will wait for the money to flow into the casino's wallet.

Your friend has good luck, so he only uses small capital but can get big wins. You can't compare yourself with your friends because your luck will be different, and you won't be able to win like your friends even though you have the chance to win. And it's true what you say, that everything depends on the luck of each gambler, so we can't expect big wins like other gamblers get.

These past few months, my wagered stats reached around the thousands, so I doubt i'll stand a chance to beat the records of those gambling streamers anytime soon. 

With the way gambling streamers get their balance filled endlessly like they're spending play money, we regular gamblers don't stand a chance aside from a couple of high rollers because there will always be a few users who will gamble away a lot of money on casinos unless Trainwrecks gambles every day to maintain his wagering record.

Whales can wager huge because they are rich so not surprising if they can risk such amount in gambling. My maximum limit is $2 everytime I wager, that's the amount I can only afford and i'm not competing to anyone who can wager huge amount when they play. This is not a competition, what matter here is you satisfy yourself regardless of even you're playing to have fun or to profit. Thus, don't copy what others are doing because we have our own reasoning on why we gamble and of course we have different financial status in life.

Trainwrecks is affiliated with Stake. We really don't know the details of his agreement with them but it is unlikely that those billions of dollars he gambled with came entirely out of his own pocket. Streamers don't have any obligation to disclose how they can afford to gamble such massive amounts. Casinos are trying to sell you a product and it's in their best interest to convince people that this sort of fame and wealth is attainable by anybody. It is only an illusion designed to market their business.

I cannot compete with this bettor. I don't have a chance if I join this kind of wagering competition. I myself am not fond of joining wagering contests actually. I just bet according to what little extra I have. Sometimes I make big bets, but usually it's just small. A few dollars sometimes, a few tens of dollars if I have the money and if I think I have a big chance of winning. I've only bet a hundred dollars or more a very limited number of times.

When you do have the money, then  you do have the ff;

1. Confidence
2. Power
3. Connection
4. Doesnt really care on other things

In gambling then you would really be that normally be that not caring that much about on how much you have spent.
You would really be just minding on things on the time that you are already that struggling or having some financial issues but on the
time that you do know deep inside that you do have tons,then you would care less.

Lets just accept that there are indeed people who are really that rich ones and there are poor/average ones.
People do really love on trying out to imagine or mimic out others on how they do spend until they would
realize that it is really that pointless on doing so.

Yes, actually comparing with those who have a lot of money and are ready to take the risks they do is useless with those of us who only bet enough. And not on our level and nothing for us to think about or obsess over, and it just proves that people like that in the world of gambling do exist.
And in my opinion, gambling is not a way to make money, but rather a place to have fun, spend money and hope for luck, and a place to make money just by working or having a side job to get extra income. And don't depend on kasuno or gambling where the income is uncertain, you might lose everything.
