I met a friend who used about $1 to play gamble to win about $2500 in a game of different matches, all the early games went well but the last game cut which made him loose the game.  This lose made him to be sick for 3 days, the reason for his reaction was not because of the money he used to bet but he felt so bad because he has already put all his hope on the money he would have won.

People needs not to put all their hope in games they are not sure of winning, because relying on it can be very dangerous to the mental health. Play gamble and remove your mind from the money that will be gained till it is achieved.

Recently I didn’t win $500 because besides all the outcomes that I guessed, also there was City vs Wolves and they lost it. To some extent, I can understand your friend (although I easily tolerate losses) - when victory is so close, it’s very disappointing to miss out on a win because the “correct” bet didn’t work out. I think he wouldn’t be upset if he didn’t guess the outcome of a game with chances of 5-10; most likely, he was let down by the outcome of some game with a “reliable” chance of 1.1-1.3.

I don't advice anyone to go for multi bets because is very dangerous, if not because of high expectation how came you bet $1 and expected the winning should be possible, the winning amount is very huge $2500 is small money,
multi bets do have high odds but it is very difficult to win all the matches we choose In fact I often do this and it always fails because 1 match is lost and I say this because I am a little curious whether what OP said is true with $1 bet in sports betting and almost won $2500, if that is true it must be very high odds and it is very rare to be able to win from a budget of $1 to $2500.

Indeed, gambling can be an opportunity to earn income, but not everyone will get this opportunity, because what each person experiences is different.
Irrespective of the luck behind every wining on gambling so many persons has greatly achieve a lot of things through gambling, one of the things I understand from gambling is that strategy use in gambling matters a lot because there are people who consistently win on gambling based on the strategy they normally use.

However a strategy is better using a small Odds that has a higher chances of always wining instead of aiming
high, so perhaps there are good opportunity to make money on gambling but many people were not able to utilize it either by greed or the kind of gambling method they normally do.

Right. It's interesting how strategy plays a crucial role and those who were able to manage consistent wins I think are so disciplined and they stick to their plans and strategies. What you said about choosing smaller odds with higher chances of winning also seem like a smart approach because it emphasize the importance of strategy over aiming too high. It's true, many potential opportunities exist in gambling but not everyone capitalizes on them because of greed or misguided methods. But I think theres nothing wrong with betting high. The higher the risks, the higher the chances of winning, right? But only to the extent of the money you can afford to lose.

It's all about finding that balance between risk and reward and those who do often find success. Great really how gambling that often has wrong connotation to normal people is influenced by careful planning. There’s nothing wrong with it as ling as you are responsible.
Strategy, not a catchphrase, is the key to successful gambling. How many underestimate this domain's strategic depth and human behaviour comprehension is astounding. A complex web of decisions and discipline lies beneath the surface, bets, and results. An inexperienced eye sees it as a gamble. For the experienced, its a well-planned move.

Yes, high bets, high payouts. Many are unprepared for the hardships that come with that. High stakes display a player's courage, understanding, and skill, not simply the numbers. A faint line remains, as usual. Ambition against overambition. Safely toeing that line is the key to winning the game and overcoming human tendencies.

i just feel that people need to be properly informed about what gambling truly is. Firstly, the game has no guarantee and therefore should not have emotions attached to it. Again, the rules are different as there is no consideration when a game is close to but does give the desired output.

Its more like a trial and error scheme, you only get paid when your trial becomes the reality.
Correct and I do agree with that.
Don't get attached to the game. This is why the motto of "Gamble what you can afford to lose." should be strengthened because this is one of the ways we can exit from a loss, forget it, and move on after setting an amount that we will play for the day. Regarding wins, it can also be used, by setting an amount of winning prize like x2 or x3 then we exit too. Imagine winning $50 from a $1 bet. Ain't that already an exit point? But many gamblers are too greedy that they like to test their luck and keep on playing which we all know is a losing side at the end of the day.

It's easy to say but hard to do, I learned that from experience.
But if we also make it a habit to do those disciplines then we might become a winner one day. Control is what we need, learning when to give it up and taking the money if we win enough.

What? That loss made him sick for 3 days? I hadn't heard that even before that after a big defeat, he'd go sick for that straight days. But I guess that's the consolation and price that he'd get for not securing the profit he'd made. Mental health is just lowkey attacking us but it is seriously attacking us when it gets there.

It's like heartbreak for your friend he wasn't able to get that win. $2500 is such a huge amount for him to ignore and didn't cash it out. If someone is relying on it and yet not a full-time gambler, they'll feel more emotional about it. While professional gamblers won't think that much although there's still some regret that's gonna leave their face. That's a huge lesson for your friend when he didn't cash it out. And the next time that he's going to gamble, he'll make sure that he's got enough winning and he'll never ignore that again because he don't want to get sick again for 3 days and that's more satisfying than to just watch the money gone when it's already on his bare hands.

Human being is born to forget or sometimes we think the first incident happened because I didn't do so so thing which I will use another method, we humans forget the pain we had at the pass that what make us move on, we only feel the pain when it immediately happened and after that we forgot, I just wise he follow our advice because gamblers don go back to rest when they are losing.

Only few blame win huge amount of money and quiet gambling, they use to have a thought in their mind that they have gotten way of making money that why they spend the money anyhow because they is not stress of getting it.
He should be able to learn lessons from what he has experienced so that it doesn't happen to him again and he can be careful in his actions. Regarding gambling, he needs to forget his losses and not think about recovering his losses because he will find it difficult to recover the money he lost. It is better for him to learn about enjoying gambling as a pastime rather than pursuing what is difficult to do. That way, he won't always think about his losses and when he returns to gambling, he can get rid of the sad feelings from the previous game. He can also enjoy the next gambling game while still maintaining his limits to avoid exceeding them.

If they have won from gambling, they should not continue gambling to get the next win. He should be able to think that it is time to stop gambling and leave his casino. If he were able to do so, he would not be tempted by whatever the casino would give him because he only considered gambling as entertainment.

Hopefully, he can learn from his mistakes so he won't repeat them in the next bet. The important thing is that he knows when to stop when he has managed to get a big win. After all, not many people can win with just a small bet, so he should be grateful that he got it and not continue betting. Moreover, he had experienced an unpleasant incident that caused him to experience this pain so this would be a valuable lesson for him in the future and he would not do the same thing again. That is also a lesson for us always to remember that if we can win big, that is the best time to immediately stop gambling rather than losing all the money at once.

Maybe some doubts will come up on our minds after those unfortunate events happen to us but once we clear out all of assumptions on our minds then we will decide to bounce back again especially if we lose some amount on first gaming session we played. That's why there are discussions about learning experience or how to recover back after a sudden huge lose they encounter since many want to listen up so they could learn something on next game they want to play.

Some maybe can quit once they win a instant huge prize but some may fail to do a right decision since they enjoyed to much that's why to lucky for those who know when to quit since they can enjoy their winnings but for those other people who didn't manage to quit for sure they will end up regretting their decision on why they continue to gamble despite of many signs they encounter that they need to stop and secure their profit gained.

I agree, gambling is not an opportunity to earn income, but by looking around us at activities or skills that we can do and will make us earn money there.
You don't have to agree on this, gambling is in fact an opportunity to make income and it's not news that people are making money from it. But it's rather not the means to rely on income making, I hope you get the difference between the two now.

Like myself, I gamble and make money somewhat consistently with sportsbooks but I dare not rely on such as my sole means of making income. It's at the time I believed too much that a bet would win that the bet would lose, if one relied on that, such would get disappointed and get himself to blame. Gambling generally is a game of chance and no one can perfectly predict an outcome which is why it's bad to rely on it for a living or budgetary plans as it will affect one's mental state and even more than that.
Indeed, gambling can be an opportunity to earn income, but not everyone will get this opportunity, because what each person experiences is different. If you gamble and make money consistently, what other people experience is not necessarily the same as what you will experience, and there are still many people who doubt this, even though we know that someone's chances of luck are uncertain and cannot be predicted. When you are lucky, if you get a consistent income from the gambling you do, it means you are one of the lucky people.

Your thinking is very good, because you don't just rely on income from gambling, because you already know for sure that when you gamble there will definitely be wins and losses, and indirectly you have tried to anticipate this.

Well exactly, most of them always assume like that when they lose, they say "it looks like I made a mistake so I ended up losing" and "I have to try it again", that's always what comes out of their mindset, especially those who are addicted and usually this is always their excuse and defense. In terms of forgetting the pain or moving on it is good but not all places that way is good to do, because obviously every thing has its own portion. And in my opinion this method is the beginning of destruction if you use this method in gambling, they forget about losing and after that they will do it again and consider the events of the previous time (defeat) is purely a mistake even though it is clear that the casino has set up a system so that you still lose when playing.

That's a good mindset, they know the situation that they already have a way to make money and not from gambling but from other jobs, and they just come for entertainment and don't expect anything. I think the fear is when someone who does not have good finances but they gamble or even come to gambling to make money, it is not recommended and you must remain careful.

Winning affecting our mental state, ofcourse no excepts we depend solely on it for survival. We're in the system and ought to apply precautionary measures that would aides in maximizing profits and minimize losses. Whatever we know shouldn't deviates from us because nowhere is safe out there. Jumping from one sector and game strategy to another would not help, we mainly focused on the strategy that works for us and keeps consistent practices till we become pro with that particular strategy, that's how to find a pro gambler with a great dealnl of experience.
This is one of the reasons why many gamblers do end up with addiction. We need to be very careful how we go desperately to gamble and make winnings. Sometimes we might be so confidence about a particular game thinking we are going to win but we because we are not so lucky and our strategies can not give us what we intend to get, we might not be able to win the bet. Gambling is very dangerous to our mental health if we are desperate about gambling and we don't have something doing to earn money for ourselves. If we can work on ourselves and work on the way we gamble, this can help us to earn big from the gambling.

It's really important to know when to stop and when to continue so that you won't fall into addiction. Skills and strategies are important in gambling as well as luck. If you combine these altogether alongside with your self-control and discipline, you will surely go far in gambling without getting lost in the process of betting and playing. Responsible gambling is the key. And to achieve responsible gambling, you should set boundaries to abide, specific fund allocation to spend so you won't go over your budget, and specific timeframe or period of playing so you won't crave for so long gambling engagement. These can help maintain a healthy mental health and well-being.

Placing high trust in the game can make you mentally disturbed when you fail to win a bet, as long as the game is not finished, anything can still happen. He should have learned from several football plays that things can change at the last minute, nothing is certain as long as the match has not officially ended.
An incident that happened to your friend because he was too obsessed with winning the game, even though in the game there are only possibilities, losing and winning. I prefer to put the outcome of the game as luck, they must be ready to accept whatever the outcome of the game is, if you are not ready to lose, never try to place a bet on any game.

Human behavior, especially in high-stress environments like competitive sports, is incredibly volatile. No algorithm, no amount of data, can truly predict how a game will turn out until the very last second. Why? Because human emotions and reactions cant be quantified or anticipated to a 100% degree, especially in sports or games. Remember, remember, remember: placing blind trust in a game is setting oneself up for disappointment and mental disturbances.

Additionally, your friend's obsession with the game underscores the fragile line between passion and obsession. Its a problem many gamblers face: mistaking obsession for passion. Online gambling, especially, manipulates human behavior to favor addiction. Theres a reason they call it "betting" and not "winning." If you're not emotionally and mentally prepared for the bitter taste of defeat, then stepping into the world of gambling is a grave mistake. Always, always, always be prepared for both outcomes: winning and losing.

I don't advice anyone to go for multi bets because is very dangerous, if not because of high expectation how came you bet $1 and expected the winning should be possible, the winning amount is very huge $2500 is small money, I will not pity him on this incident even though is possible to bet one dollar and win 2500 dollars or more than that. Op let your friend understand that money is very hard to get not as easy has he see it, their is not short cut to success and also advice him or her to disengage with multi bets to avoid further health issues and also tell him or her not to be putting too much expectations on the win price he should only focus on the amount he used for bet and also he should also use what he can afford to lose.
Hopefully, he can learn from his mistakes so he won't repeat them in the next bet. The important thing is that he knows when to stop when he has managed to get a big win.

looking at the OP case, it does not seem like it was because he was not ready, but because his friend had probably never been close to winning a large amount like what the OP said, so he felt very disappointed when he saw how much it would be if he could win the whole match and was really hoping to get the whole amount. but failed so he felt deep disappointment even with only $1. I dont think he would think about the amount of his bet but he felt disappointed because he failed to get that win.
and if I understand OP case it seems like his friend bets on sports betting with multi bets which gets big odds with $10 to $2500 whereas in sports betting there are lots of surprises and multi bets are always risky if they have very high odds and he should understand the risks this was to treat the feelings of disappointment in his mind.
