It is similar to this thread: Consequences of greed. Except that you asked a question.

I checked the link you drop yesterday but was not opening and other people said this thread has been created by someone and I tried to locate the thread but no way. Please can you send me the link of the similar thread for me to confirm the content of the two threads. I created this this one because I didn't see another of it's kind but if they are of the same then I will lock this but if they are of different content then let's discuss on them.

I saw the other thread that is similar to this one also sometime back but I can't remember anymore I will do a manual reading to fine it out and share with you, although the two threads are similar but not the same, since this is just a story and not some form of research results or articles that could be tied to just one source, so as long as the contents a d the story is not the same, I believe we can go on with this thread without any issues.
Back to the discussion, I believe the guy that lost out in the bet will be in a very good position to tell why he did add up more games to his own selections, sometimes it could be greed but most time, he just might have just run out of luck on that day, but when it comes to games selection, I always advice people not to add or change their games at the point of bets, that because at that point, they is no much time to do the right analysis of the game's that are about to be added a d that way you just rush to pick the one that the odds suit you which eventually is and will not be the best choice for a gambler .

When he heard the that the game he gave to his friend entered for the guy and he loss the game so the guy was speechless and he was in pain throughout the week. And the guy who won the game, gave him $200. If you were the guy who loss the game which you were the one gave him the codes. What will you do? Lolz. Gambler's life. Life goes on. Have you predicted a game for some and the person won the game but you loss out?

Expect, unexpecting to happen in gambling; it has happened to me several times, and I have no regret because this is gambling; it could go either way with every bet you place. I also experienced give a tip to bet, and the one who gave losses by not following his bets.

The most important is to be generous to the one who gave you an opportunity to win; the guy did the right thing by giving him a tip. I did the same thing; gambling has a lot of uncertainties, and you never know what you will end in every session.

A colleague in office played a game (sport bet) and the booking codes were given to him by another of his friend and he played the game exactly how the guy presented code with the number of odds. And the gambler who game him the codes, played more odds to win bigger and when the match finally ended, this my colleague odds entered and he won $7,600 and the guy who gave him the booking codes loss the game.

When he heard the that the game he gave to his friend entered for the guy and he loss the game so the guy was speechless and he was in pain throughout the week. And the guy who won the game, gave him $200. If you were the guy who loss the game which you were the one gave him the codes. What will you do? Lolz. Gambler's life. Life goes on. Have you predicted a game for some and the person won the game but you loss out?

I don't see any greediness here, just some tweek that didn't work out. I'm sure even the guy never expected the game to go including the person who copied the code to gamble. They are all risky thing which work out for the person and didn't work for the original gambler. What I don't understand is the first gambler who didn't win anything became pain, if the second guy has stake the game with $10 dollar, I'm not sure the outcome will be $7k+, he risked his money and it worth it.

The lesson learn from this is that whenever a game is share to your or you want to share a game to people, make sure you play it too, even though you have to use amount you can afford to lose before you make any further edit on such games, if you feel like removing or adding any games later. Just make sure you out money on the original one and try as much to go through them incase of any minor mistakes others might not see on time.

The predictor of the game has no need of growing mad for the lost of his game, he should be proud that he predicted a succesdful game for his friend at least that commendation will ever remain remarkable of his behalf.

Clearly he is aware that he lost the game due to the excessive risk on his side by having additional games to increase his odd that cut off his winning.

However, if I was the predictor, I will feel proud of myself for giving that guy the won game because it is a story to be hyped about in time as the testimony is proved. Lol.

This is something that has happened to a lot of gamblers, although I agree to the fact that it's greedy move because that potential win was enough but sometimes that's not how some people think, when they combine such an amount of games they don't even expect to win cause the chances of winning are kind of low, so they just play with low expectations forgetting that anything can happen. I wouldn't really blame the guy that added more games it's human nature to do that, the two factors of his loss were greed and doubt

What I've realized with sport bets is that the more you combine games to your stake, the higher the profits you will benefit from the stakes but the more risk you are playing with the money you've staked. Sometimes it's better to play safe and separate your bets if you must stake more. I agree that being greedy when playing gamble games usually exposes the gambler to more risks yet the truth is you can hardly gamble without being greedy just that anything you do should be properly checkmaked.

OP don’t mention about the exact odds and bet amount of the colleague who share bets. That 7600$ probably due to the high bet amount place on the pick given. The story is incomplete that makes it hard to judge whether it’s really greed or not since we don’t know the odds of the specific pick.

Overconfidence is the other side I’m looking for since he decided to add more due to his confidence that he will win the pick and because he is greedy. Sports betting is a skill based gambling game which means some gambler is always prone to misjudgment on the picks they are choosing.

This whole story of human nature with the betting rules and the $200 payout is fantastic.

Sharing those codes first of all. That either is a wise or a daring action. It exhibits a certain confidence - perhaps even overconfidence. It's like saying, "I'll share the riches; I have the winning ticket and I'm quite sure of it." To be honest, though, the chances don't change just because you passed on the information. For all those engaged, it is the same game with identical risk.

Right now, the guy who lost He is experiencing the burn; this is reasonable. Cognitive dissonance is the phenomena whereby your brain says one thing: "I should have won!": while reality says another: "You lost, buddy". Though it's difficult, everyone of us has to learn: gambling is a gamble. You win occasionally; you lose other times. Period

Well, that's how life is in gambling; no one knows when we'll win because the players' winnings often depend on luck. The giver is lucky, and the one given is lucky. The good thing about the winner is that he returned the gratitude for what was done to him with 200 dollars because he won.

At least he knows how to appreciate and repay the debt of gratitude to the person who helped him, so the giver who lost should still win because the help he gave was returned because the $200 was a lot.

I will not tell to the other guy that I loss the bet due to my own mistake of changing and act cool like I won too. Saving face is much better than ask for a pity tip from the guy who trusted your pick.

Taking the 200$ tip is such pathetic because you’re the one who introduced that pick while you are also the one who didn’t stick to it meaning you abandoned your friend for that original pick.

But there's no agreement that we need to stick with our bet, we can give our pick, but at the end we or they can change the pick whatever we wants.

I don't think it's good to act cool to safe your face, I mean we all made mistake and this mistake happen with our friends, not something important that we make mistake in front of people. If we make mistake in front of people then act cool isn't wrong.

So far and as long as I have been involved in gambling I think I have never given any predictions to my friends to be used as choices, but what is certain is that if a scenario like the one you described happens then maybe it is very possible for someone to feel upset when it turns out that the choice given to their friend is a choice that can bring their friend to victory while you lose.

But I think if we return to the concept of gambling and all the abilities that must be possessed by a gambler such as responsibility then in my opinion disappointment, annoyance or emotion should not occur in a gambler who experiences defeat where he should understand and realize that it means his friend is much luckier than him, and the situation is not too bad because in that case a friend is still willing to give some of his winnings to the friend who gave the prediction even though the amount is not too large.

A thread like this was created about a week ago, and the thread went the same way as yours, the only difference, which I know is the price which you mentioned. I don’t really know if it is true that this happens to your college, but I don’t really have any problem with that. Maybe it happens to your college and the other person also. lol Grin

What do you expect? I am sure the pain will even last more than a week. Maybe whenever they see each other the pain is going to start, or whenever the person who won gets something new for himself, his friend will start thinking he used the amount won for that, and he is definitely going to feel bad. It’s just better to not always be greedy and learn to be satisfied with what you have.

The person who loses won’t have choice but to accept the money, but to me, the amount is really too small. If I am the winner, then I won’t be giving the person who gave me the code anything less than $1k. How are you going to win $7,600, and what you can give is just $200, and you know that he loses his own bet.

What more would the person do if not accept the $200 offered to them as a consolation for the lost game they would have won for themselves? If not, they weren't greedy to have additional odds to their bets.

In this kind of scenario, the person who gave out the betting code and lost, shouldn't expect much from the person he gave the betting code to, that wins.

Any amount given to him should be appreciated not to be wanting more because the person that won the bets gave him what he felt like for saying thank you for the odds given to him. He didn't force him to add more odds to the bets he provided for himself. Even though he didn't add more odds and wins, the guy he gave the odds to, will still show him appreciation with any amount he still feels to give. Remember, there's no mandatory amount promised to be given if the odds are rightly predicted

I believe that we all know one of two persons who have been in this type of situation before. I don't think it is anything new. It happens all the time. Whether there is greed or not involve it is life and shit happens. What is important is the lesson learned. Will the person who gave the booking code do repeat this again next time with some other person? The guy who won and decided to give him a small portion of the money did it out of benevolence and not because he owed him anything. What if he had also lost, will the person who gave him the booking code reiemburse him for the money lost?

typical mistake of sports gamblers.
they enter too many events, practically creating combinations that are much more unlikely than the real value of the final odds.
nothing new. it takes years and years to learn and understand this aspect of gambling. moreover the "jackpot" wasn't lower at all....

for sure a nice gesture from the winner who wanted to give a tip to his friend Roll Eyes

however, I would avoid any discussion or situation relating gambling in my office...

It's happened several times, but I don't regret it, I thought it was his luck in betting this time and unlucky for me, but something like that happened again, I advised my friend and gave him the code, but another friend gave me a code to bet, I won and he lost, I don't think it's greed, it's just luck and coincidence.

This phenomenon happened to me and my friend in lottery gambling, where I once gave the code (4405) he placed the lottery (44), (05), (440) and (4405) with a total win of almost $10k, I myself actually don't put in the numeric code, instead I placed another one (5504) of course I had to accept the defeat, but it didn't matter he also gave me some $$ tips, in essence: what we believe in doesn't win and the joking and prank code wins, that's what gambling is like, fate and destiny.

he just happened to be unlucky, so his response should be normal even though it is not easy to accept the fact that he was close to winning but because it did not happen it means it was not his luck, be grateful that his friend was willing to share and $ 200 as a thank you is a large amount because actually the winner of the bet has no obligation to share but he is generous enough so the loser should also be able to be happy with his friend's victory, unless he has a jealous nature.

I haven't predicted a game for someone, rather I'll do it myself so nobody would be blame on my mess. But being greedy is not our control, it's someone's decision or emotional breakthrough that couldn't be overcome my any means. Once I hit that winning streak, I won't risk for more because hitting that fortune won't be easy in the next more rounds. So you better strike the iron while it's hot!
