I have my opinion on this one, but i would like to see is it correct so i created a poll and i will share my thoughts after poll expires.

Your opinion is a result of your experience and is shaped bye your beliefs.
Do you really consider changing your mind to match more popular approach when majority of people here would express a different opinion?
~snip~

17-12, i am disappointed with pool, so many gamblers and only 29 people voted, 29 votes can't change anyone's opinion(i think there are more people who gambled for first time when they were under 18).
But ok. I am locking this topic.

Too bad the voting was closed, I wasn't able to place in my vote. For me, I started young, since I loved NBA back then. I used to join fantasy drafts that would involve real money with my friends. It wasn't so big of a bet since it was just about $1 for the whole season. Though it was fun times.

If I remember correctly, I got my first bet when I was about 21 years old (now 23) in the primedice site.
I didn't know at first that they have a sort of faucet system in there so, my bet were from my own balance which I collected from faucet sites like moonbit, luckbit and more.
It was a great experience afterall Cheesy

We are on the same gambling site that we made our first bet as a newbie. I think we are on the same year to start bitcoin. I remember also that time to try dice game and I choose PD because they are popular and user-friendly that time. I used all my bitcoin collected also on faucet which is worth 0.01BTC. I think you know also what are the experience on collecting every time on a faucet that comes to the point that I set an alarm just not to miss one single claim. To make my story short. I double my money that time because I bet all in on my first bet with 50% chance. I heard this tips from my friend on bitcoin group. Then luckily, It really works on me.

the first time I made a bet was over 18, at 21 exactly when I go abroad to visit a legal casino, I still remember I made my first bet on baccarat and win some money, that was the first time I was really excited about gambling and been introduced to a lot of gambling games

I made my bet first on 2 years ago on dice site because that was really easy to do and you didn't do anything but just click and watch hence I lose all of my money on dice site. My first time introduced gambling was by dice site so that was really shit on that day.

first time tried gambled when i was 15 years old, that day i only have small amount of bitcoin around 0.001 BTC, i gambled it all and did doubled my bankroll but i keep playing because i thought it's going to keep increasing but i was wrong.

I'm sure a lot of gamblers have the same fate as you. Getting something great when starting, getting started and doubling the money, gambling all over again hoping for more money to be doubled, but the opposite. That happens a lot, can not be denied. But gambling always has the appeal that the gamblers do not go.

As far as I remember I didn't experience to play gambling but I do already have experience on playing cards like poker with my friends but we don't bet any money and its just for fun which means its not a gambling at all and when I know about bitcoin and bitcoin based gambling sites then that's the time I do engage with them and make some bets with real money since bitcoin is considered as money and that was last year.

One way or another, i think we've all gambled early on in our lives. We probably are just not aware that it's gambling or it's not really felt because of how little the bets are. I've made a lot of bets before i even rrachrd 18 and sometimes these are not monetary bets but dares. Though there are times when i do it with achool allowances with classmates and friends and the bets are for pretty much anything. I've even entered a casino before i turned 18but i didn't gamble there yet during that time as i was overwhelemed by the amount of bets involved. I just went there with an uncle but that opened me up to the casino world

Well I think I was in grade school when I've made my first bet. Playing cards with my cousins and my friends even during school hours. I always bet when the NBA finals is coming. Well I don't quite a gambler but the fun and excitement really brings back so much memories. It is the time when you don't expect a return and I only played to have bond and moments with my relatives.

Look ARROUND!

I was really young when I first started to gamble. I usually gamble with my friends on something that we had no idea on what the result would be, there is a few times where we would just gamble things like toys or food.
Gambling was not really about the money, I think I started gambling and putting money into it when I was enrolled in Middle School.
There was not that much money to earn then, I might've earned around $5.00.

I'm more than 19 years old when me and my friends started betting in a basketball game. Its was just among ourselves just to pass some time and enjoy watching the game. And it was just a few months playing at dice game (primedice). And now I'm trying to test other sites like rollin.io and bitsler as well.

I was exposed to gambling at a young age. My father was a avid gambler/sport bettor. I remember playing street kind of baccarat like 12 years old or less and I'm against an adult. They taught they could out hassle me and I even saw them cheating. HaHaHa. But they area all wrong baby!!!. I won a good amount of money, then someone whispers to me that my mom is looking for me Grin

so its game over for them. My father really was a big influence and the environment during that time was ripe for street gambling.
