Topic: Out of curiosity, how much you wagered recently? - page 5. (Read 690 times)

This news has been received with lots of skepticism from the online gambling community. People are wondering the source of wealth of Trainwreckstv, some even suggested that he is a Saudi Arabian prince due to the amount he had spent on gambling. But it all turned out that showcasing this high amount of bets might be a marketing strategy by Stake to attract gamblers to its platform. This is suspected because Trainwreckstv is a co-founder of Kick a streaming platform that has a business connection with Stake. This is also the case of the Canadian rapper and singer Drake who always shows his bets in Stake on social media, meanwhile, he is affiliated with the casino.

Our gambling activities shouldn't be controlled or motivated by this kind of news because they might have some undertones. It is necessary to gamble based on our capacity which is determined by our income. I have a gambling plan that guides my gambling activity for the month and I don't think I have placed up to $500 on a single bet. So I might not gamble close to what Trainwreckstv has spent in my lifetime.

Who goes to war with a wager amount? Is there some reward for those who gamble with the highest amount in this world, and is it not who has such money first as a person that will be able to wager up to that, or can we just wager what we don't even have?

I'm not in competition with anyone; if I gamble, I gamble for myself. I don't even care what the next person sitting close to me thinks about my small beginning; they talk more of me competing with people who are wealthy and are looking for casinos to make richer from their own wealth.
 
Anyone who starts thinking in this direction might end up selling all that they have and gambling with it just to make sure that they come out on the top high rollers list, but what's in it for them as the only side I see benefiting from such competition is the casino and no one else? Let's remove such a competitive mindset from us as it's really not worth it.

I only remember my own commitment, I bet just to try my luck with the small value that I have and that I can afford to give to gambling and have no intention of competing with anyone. Its possible that a whale bettor like him will be able to spend that amount of money, no matter what the goal is, he is someone who is truly capable of losing such a large amount and sometimes as small gamblers we will have feelings of envy that we want to be like him, but that is only a momentary feeling and quickly passes. because in the end we are more self aware that small gamblers are more attractive to each gambler


in the history that I remember I once bet a total of $9000 but dont remember how much I spent each betting session because I never counted it, I just looked at the statistics of my total bet.

That is a lot of money for gambling. Wow,I think making deposits to gamble $14billion in a stake.com is too risky, how the hell did he even think of doing that. Just as the reporter said, I will not doubt a sec if he is truly a Saudi Prince, I have seen people gambling with hundred of thousands of dollars but never heard of a billion dollar gambling. Having seen this post I want to ask do we call this gamble addition or just irresponsible? And the most shocking part of the news being that he has been doing this with some couple of millions of dollar.

Another level to say the least. I feel like that amount is impossible to put in context so that people would understand how much it is in reality, because people get confused by just a million.

But let's try:

• He gambled 17% of Finland's yearly budged.
• New York median listing home price is $899000, so $14 billion would mean 15572 median price houses in New York.
• Most expensive movie today (Force awakens) was $552 million dollars, with $14 billion you could produce over 25 of those.
• When $64.1 Million dollars were stolen from Stake this year in a heist. People were worried if their money was safe. Trying to explain how little that was from their yearly revenue was hard to visualize. This time i thought i would provide visual perspective:

Tldr; 14 billion is a lot of money.

Are wagering wars seriously a thing? And even if so, if you're not participating I don't think you need to mind how much others bet, especially for cases of people like this guy here. And if you were, then yeah naturally you don't. You don't even need to compare bet amounts, just compare a general idea of your assets vs his, it should be more than enough to give you an idea of whether you can ever outwager the man or not.

Admittedly it is rather high though. I don't think I'd ever go past $1000 for a bet, let alone that much.

Tyler "Trainwreckstv," trending with his playing habits and making opinions by other communities, in the long run it might make the gambling CEO more eager to provide additional benefits to his users, and will last longer because he gets a good turnover of funds, any company is the same when it gets loyal visitors will work even further so that its users are comfortable and diligent in their activities on the site, if you see large transactions, it will certainly make the company rise in rank even in the eyes of new people. A large amount of money, qualified abilities and strong support including from the platform, of course he has the power to make decisions in depositing his money.

If you want to play, go in and join for people who have their own abilities, recognize your own limits and enjoy your days, I'm sure whatever money is deposited is for fun don't speculate without enjoying it, manage money and play.

I think my highest amount I bet is in sports betting, and the amount is $300. The result is that I won that bet thankfully, but that is the first and last time I will bet that much because I can't take the anxiety of what will happen to my bet. It's not that I got afraid, but I'm more careful now. To my next bet or stakes, I only limit myself to $100 every session or in one bet. That's it, nothing more, nothing less. It's more like my limit and boundary. I set this limit to minimise my gambling spending and it has proven to be effective because, as I monitored my wins and losses, I saw that I earn more than what I lose, which is a good indication that having discipline in gambling is much better.

I have friends that spend quite a lot of money on gambling, mainly sports betting. As they are fans of the NBA, they spend a lot on it. And they don't track their wins or losses, but I think in a day or a game in the NBA, they can spend around $200–300, which is a huge amount.

Since the beginning of my gambling career, I have never even shown interest in joining a wagering competition leaderboard.

The reasons are:
- we don't know if we are against a real gambler and not a bot,
- there are lots of big rollers in a gambling platform

I just spend time doing and focusing on wagering if I'm taking part in bonuses and promotions.

I don't trust twitch streamers. Those guys are snakes, full of deceit. They are like Houdini.  We agreed that gambling should be fun throwing words like " wagering wars" doesn't sound like fun. It makes it look like someone needs to be accepted into a certain cadre of gambling if he can wager this amount. There is no standard set. Please do as you will but remain in the purview of responsible gambling.

The gambler who wagered for the huge dollars will not share their opinion,because he may had won huge dollars from it.So it will make his friend to understand the winning by his friend in the gambling,It leads to the misuse of his friends on the bill payings.The gambler who get jealous to earn more from the gambling will try of the gambling play.This will happen because of the greedy of the gambler in the gambling to earn more money from their winning money.The gambler who ready to keep their feelings away from the gambling game can easily made the big win from the same gambling and need of affection towards the game.

Why compete, is there any rewards for that? Well, maybe the most who'd loss will win since it's what will always happens when gambling. Well, there is an exception if you have lots of them you can play and lost anytime, win will comes but probably you have higher chance of lossing it, and win huge luckily.

Talking about the article, it always fascinates me how rich bets like "i don't care if i loss, it will double or triple if i win" especially talking about millions and billions or bets.

Yeah, saw some of his twitch videos in the past and it's insane that he might have gambled that huge money. How about Drake though, he is for me the biggest whale of them all as far as online streaming goes as he is the one that I saw betting $1 million per spin in a slot game. The game has to change and cater for him because as far as I know the max bet for a roulette in slots is around $300,000 only.

I don't think we have a chance against from this whales, they might be wanting to out duel each other. But nevertheless as a regular and average joe gambler, we can't take that risk and will rather be just investing those huge money if I have the chance and not to gamble that much.

That would be the last thing for me to do because I know that they are some crazy ass gamblers out there who can go to the extreme when gambling and I don't think am that of a gambler to even raise my stakes that high not to talk of competing with such guys. I think I am okay with ma little stakes don't want to gamble anything that will be of great effect to me negatively.

The last amount I gambled with was $200 and I lost the bet, and this affected me for almost two weeks, but that is due to my financial status, because to some other people,  they can easily gamble away thousands of dollars with feeling anything, but no other, that amount I wager with is out of. reach for them.


So the point is that it doesn't matter what the amount of wager by various gamblers, what matters is what the excitement behind the stake and how fulfilled we are after the game outcome, but it is far better if if we wager an amount we can afford to lose and not allow greed and addictions to control us.

He is a good example of a gambler who is addicted and at the same time have so much money within their disposal to use in gambling. $14billion total in bets??? it sounds ridiculous! but check out, if you are able to see the total you have spent on gambling yourself, the figures will indeed even still surprise you. Do not be like this guy, he is not a good example of a gambler to emulate.

Basically just speaking on the house edge and the amount wagered then it is really that talking about multi-millions on which from that alone then we could really say that he had already lost that big.
This is really that hard thing on online world on which every information couldn't really be that exactly be precise or just simply telling the truth. Lets assume that this one is legit
then there's no way for us to reach out on what these people been able to do so. There are rich people there are average and poor ones. There's no such thing in speaking about equality
yet this had been always a normal thing on todays society on where it is really that divided basing up into your financial capacity.

For me then total wagered for this year is already playing around $1000+ and im not really that a heavy gambler. Amount might be small but this is
only the money on which i could really that afford to lose. If those people do able to make such huge spending that only elite people could do then just let them be.
Its their money that had been used not ours. It is really just that there are people who do really love on seeing these spectacular amounts.

I gamble for fun and of course winning. I have some tricks of my own and I never chase bonuses from wagering. So I never think about how many wager I get in one week or one month. Although I'm sure my wager will be very small because the deposit I made is also small. But I'm surprised anyone can have wagering that much, maybe he deposited at least 10% of the total wager he earned, that's a huge amount.

What interests me is that if we take a 1% house edge, he should have lost at least $140 million. But he boasts that in the last year and a half he has won 300 million. Maybe he's lying? Why should he stream if he has a quarter of a billion dollars + 50 million on top. And the article also says that he made 7.5 million bets - this is a huge distance and he cannot be profitable on it purely mathematically.

Hi Cantsay, I think there is some sarcasm, or it is not, but maybe OP is not so literal in his question.

The art of betting is essentially that, taking a dollar and making $1000 in wager, well in essence the quickest I can remember is once start bets with $3 and I currently have about $16,000 in wager, which for OP's purposes is really a a grain of sand.

And that essentially answers your question, wager is an ability to get royalties, bonuses and maybe breakeven, it's like the 3% return in poker seems little (E.g.) but that percentage allows you to saveor reduce losses, and/or obtain green roi.

One can, if you know how to do it, take $100 and make (+++)$100,000 in wager, then you may end up with $80 dollars from that final (initial) balance, but you compensate it with royalties.

In other words, to make a wager of that magnitude, the first thing I would ask is, how many bets did you make and for how long, because that determines the size of the average bet, and the time, so, maybe it would amazing.

The wager world is surprising, maybe the OP knows it, but in Poker Star (before) they had something called FPP (frequent player points) for wagering, then, you could get a Porsche, I don't remember if it was a million FPP  but several achieved it.

Now without a doubt, I believe according to my accounts and with the data provided that the average bets of this type were between $1800-$2000. (!?)

So the point is, as you mention, anything that takes you out of your betting size is just a reference, they are not paths to follow.
