This is what I'm waiting. With your previous post, I already thought that many people might ask you for advice since you won such a huge amount with using only $300. Winning hundred thousands of dollars with only hundred as your initial deposit will really make people curious about how you did it and thus, encourage them to gamble by thinking they also have the chance to win such amount. There's really nothing wrong with using your experience as their driving force or motivation to gamble better for a chance of winning. But of course, they should be reminded that in gambling, there's no guaranteed winning despite how sure and confident you are on the bet you've made. And I'm really glad you posted once again to address this issue.

There's always two sides in gambling: the good and the bad one. It's either you win or lose, there's nothing in between. Hence, you must be careful not to make impulsive decisions that could cost you so much and will make you hate yourself later on. Losing is a part of anyone's gambling journey. But its percentage can be lowered with the right approach and possessing the necessary qualities such as being disciplined, knowledgeable, strategic, and with a little mix of luck.

Do you know that gambling is capable of taking back everything it has given to you? You used 300$ to make over 400k and you believe that you can still make more? Bro gambling is sometimes like a spiritual place.

If you are not careful all the 400k will be gone in no time, this is what happen to those gamblers who won but don't believe it they just got lucky.

Accept that you got luck, doing so will wake up the level of awareness and you will be very careful on what to bet on next.

Thinking that you will not run out of luck so you will keep pushing yourself and continue instead of quitting and enjoy such a huge amount of winning, we can't really say, but it was a wasted opportunity.

If you know how to control and how to limit yourself, then for sure you are enjoying the amount of profits that you
can earn from gambling, but without that capabilities, only regret will be the next thing that you will know
after the game.

You said it perfectly.  Wink
Some gamblers think it was that easy to hit a long parlay but it took a lot of time to analyze the game and trying to review every possible outcome.
Then, there's the courage to take the high risk of betting small but winning with a low chance because there's always the possibility it can go south in just one leg.

What you did was the right thing, it's not just about taking money or anything, it will also be prevented from being blamed by these people in the long run. They will possibly bash you for being fake if they cannot get what they are dreaming of, a jackpot.

When I read the first paragraph of your post about winning a bet, I immediately thought to myself, "I'll have to start betting too." Every time I look around, all I see are people winning, and when they tell me about their wins, all I can think about is asking them for betting advice. I never even think to ask them about their losses. I now realize that luck plays a role in betting, and that it's still important to know what you're betting on, just as it's important to have a fundamental understanding of cryptocurrencies before investing in it.


I am making this thread to address the above matter plus the issue of responsible gambling.

Firstly, I will NEVER ask for or accept money or payments from anyone on this forum. There is enough information, statistics and knowledge for free online that you should never pay for these services. Anybody who tries to sell you "tips" or "picks" is most likely a scammer who is only interested in taking your money. Do your own research/analysis online for free it really isn't hard at all.
You made the right decision by refusing to take money from anyone because when you accept money from them they will expect a guaranteed win and when they lose a bet they will look for a way to point the finger at you and think you are nothing more than a scammer.

It's really rare to read real information about how sports betting works and not the sh*t of auto proclaimed great tipsters.

it would be nice to follow other advice on this topic or see you post more bets on a regular basis.

I think this thread was really forced after the dm's flow to the OP after he shared a successful game on sports betting, but it's useful and sincere.

Regarding the regular placement of current sports betting from OP, it would be interesting, but it seems to me that many players can believe in omens, for example, it's like telling a secret, the "sacredness" of which is lost after disclosure and luck goes away, I don't mean OP of course. Smiley

These examples should show you how hard it is to win big amounts and I hope everyone who reads it understands nothing is guaranteed when it comes to gambling. Luck plays a HUGE part in gambling and the weather, the referees or an unforeseen scenario can be the difference between winning or losing.


Please only gamble what you can afford to lose and if you don't have discipline or control you shouldn't be gambling. I can't stress that enough.
It's nice to see you post your losses here on the forum, because with this I'm sure most people will now get to understand that in gambling winning is never 100% guaranteed, and at such we should always afford to gamble with an amount of money we can always afford to loss at every moments in time.
Although, the earlier post you made about you using $300 to win $410,000 was quite tempting, of which many would have thought that maybe you are a super predictor who never losses or buys fixed games, which is why you got so much inbox. But however, I'm happy you finally came back to clarify everyone that this can be done with just the help of an online too for sport predictions.

It's funny how gamble responsibly could mean differently from one gambler to another. That is like saying gamble what you can afford to lose, and you, OP, is betting as high as $20,000. Of course, you can afford to lose that. To somebody else, or perhaps to most of us here, that is already a life-changing amount we wouldn't just risk on a wager.

Yes, of course, everything is individual and according to the situation, after a big win, perception changes and a person can calmly react to the amounts that previously made him tremble. And he usually makes quite large bets on events in which there seemed to be confidence.

It's not wrong to ask advises regarding betting, but it is a big no-no to receive an amount in order to receive tips on how to and where to bet. I highly praise you for doing the latter OP.

It makes sense that most of those private messages wanted to learn and earn profit from sportsbet, but as the OP says there is no assurance as to which team would win in the next, it may be due to different factors or not, there're still possibilities of losing. By saying that you guys should be responsible on your bets, it's also indicating that whether you follow his tips or not it's your own responsibility if you lose. He has nothing to do with it, besides he isn't asking any service fee from that.

I followed your first thread and yeah I am amazed of how much you made from that 300 dollars bet but now I understand the whole thing here.

I start to believe that you are a man with a friend of Luck that is why the outcome of your bets are huge but now that the Behind the scene is released here, I may think of how to follow or deny your betting tips.

there isa  bit amount of money that also at losing and not what people think that you are truly a winner.

thanks for this thread mate , a reminder that gambling is still a hard place to win big.

Of course, you can afford to lose that. To somebody else, or perhaps to most of us here, that is already a life-changing amount we wouldn't just risk on a wager.

Anyway, I'm just saying that what gamblers can afford to lose widely differs. It could be $1. It could be $10 or $100 or $1,000. Or it could be $20,000. The point is that the money that a gambler should bet is an extra.

How I wish I could gamble like you, OP!

He won 400K which makes 20k a bit of a tiny extra amount for him. But if the small timers see his picks to be a real deal, they small timers will bet thier bottom dollar for his tips. You'd be amazed how words can be open to interpretation for people desperate to win big.

I can only see big amounts on the poker cup tournament where people easily just throw 50K and then fold. The extra money for some gamblers is like the entire savings of some people.

This kind of honesty and responsibility is not often seen on internet. Someone without morals or responsibility would have taken advantage of the situation to pocket some money and someone with morals but without sense of responsibility would have just ignored the private messages and not set things straight the way you did.

On the other hand, it is remarkable the fact you got bombarded by those messages from people of this section. I did not know there was such big volume of people that participate here who are willing to take other's word on where to bet their money...  Huh
A lot of people always look for opportunities that can give them a chance to increase the percentage of them winning a game and earn money, so reading a post as good as OP's last one where he made 400k with only $300 or something, I don't remember the numbers correctly. Anyway, so those who read that post were definitely going to ask for tips from him and there is no surprise that it happened.

What OP did is really appreciable that he didn't accept the money offered to him to provide tips and betting opinions when he could easily earn a lot of money with it if he wanted to.

We have to be genuine and real if you will post your amazing winning here you should also post your losses, there is no such thing as a perfect gambler only in movies we can see god of gamblers who never lose big bets, we are all just humans, there are flaws in our prediction because gambling is very unpredictable.
With OP's post, we get the idea that gambling is still a game of chance and even in sports betting good analysis will not guarantee good results.
I do see gambling like the way we trading. Gambling has two side and is either you are a winner or a loser, this two options one must come in. We can nit always be a winner, there are time when we are going to lose seeing it as an opportunity for us to work on our strategies and get a better path for a new winning style. If we don't lose then we are not going to know how it felt like having a losing game. This is one thing that helps us to sharpen our game so we can always make be a better gambler with bigger opportunity coming to us.
Therefore, we should treat gambling as it is so we don't become losers who experience too many losses.
Many people have experienced it and we don't need to follow what they get and it's better for us to stay on the right track by not using a lot of money to gamble.
Gambling responsibly means that we pay attention that gambling will not always give us big wins because we have to have luck and that luck will not always come to us.
That's why we can't rely on gambling to make money because when we lose, we can use up more money if we don't control ourselves and it's not responsible gambling.

Neither you do make yourself get involved with Trading or gambling, which it is true that it could only give two common outcomes which is to win/profit or losing which it would really be depending on the situation.
Although we know that trading cant be considered as purely with gambling considering that analysis and other approaches will really be that common.We know that leisure things cant get in line with
those things that involves business and other venture which are really good for sustaining if its done well.The most important thing is that you should make yourself that kept on positive side despite of the losses that you do commit or experience.

Reality in this industry is that, there are players who won bigtime but along their way, they have suffered from huge losses, which is being disregarded by new players in gambling. They are more caught with the idea that winning would make an individual rich in an instant, which gives them the drive to just risk most of the time without managing the amount they are betting with.
Thanks for the clarification mate, indeed, we will only see or hear what gamblers are going to tell us, those big wins. But at least you open everything with those big bets that you put and it seems that it was a "sure win", nevertheless it was a very bad break to lose those games with incredible odds to win. Just surprises me though that you got a ton of PM's regarding your huge wins, hehehe. Still base on luck though, so I guess for them, they should take that risk and maybe one day they can win big just like what you reach the last time. Right now I'm on a losing streak myself, Lol, but I do know that one of this days, maybe lucky luck will smile on me.  Smiley
Right. Gambling is still based on luck, and mostly your big wins still cannot surpass your previous huge losses too in the past. I’m just surprised that OP made it more transparent for us, that these big wins currently do not happen instantly, OP endured his big losing streak first before he won these huge amount. Hope this will leave clarity that gambling is never a win-win all the time, it’s a fair share of losses and wins and it’s up to the gambler itself on how he’d manage to recover his losses and maximize his winning streak.
It won't always be upsies on gambling. It is simply based on one's fate and luck meaning, most of the time, you have no control of the outcome. What you can control is your drive whether to push through luck or to be disciplined enough to take a pause when you are continuously losing. A player could also move from one game to another in order to calibrate their luck (without basis), but a better way than to keep rolling with the same game waiting for your turn to win.

I'm curious, feel free not to answer.
do you feel addicted to betting games? Last but not least why do you play such large numbers on such high odds and not split on single bets?

I'm not addicted, I sometimes go weeks/months without gambling. I live in Australia so the majority of my gambling is between April and October which is the Australian sporting calendar.

I don't always play large amounts but I prefer to go for quality over quantity, I've had more success that way. If I have a big win I am happy to outlay more. Regardless of my gambling I don't bet what I can't afford to lose.

Since you post your lose, am sure most people will now believe you are also losing and they will stop disturbing you, in gambling nobody can be winning frequently, you will definitely lose sometime and you might even lose a game you won’t believe you will lose. Most people proving fix games are just cheater’s, I don’t believe there is anything like fix matches. If you are a gambler, always do your analysis well and gamble with just the amount you can afford to lose.
People would really be just taking this as a normal thing but its unlikely for someone to make out those kind of words on accepting out or mentioning out their losses considering that on huge wins on where most people do

make out those boastful kind of claim that they are really that indeed lucky or trying out to impress people but seeing OP which is totally opposite.Yes, gambling is for pure luck and if you do keep on pushing for you to have that winning then it would really just make you that desperate which is something really not that recommendable.

This is why people should really be realizing that no matter how small the odds of losing but still those chances could really happen.
