How would you approach a case where your close friend wagers on almost a similar game with yours, and he wins but yours goes wide? Do you feel jealous in a way that you'd assume them to lose as well?
If my friend bet on the same game and won, then of course I would feel a little regret, but I would not be jealous of him. And I think most people will have that regret, but the main thing is this regret, I think it's better not to have it, because gambling is all about luck, and here the person who wins the bet and loses the bet depends entirely on his luck.  So in this case it is best to avoid regretting or envying someone else who won the bet in the same game in front of you.

Not really as if he is a true friend of mine I will get some tip probably from him so there is nothing to be jealous about in gambling, in fact I think gamblers are one of the most supportive communities for each other and you will have huge difficulties to find this anywhere else, in sports like football or any other sport, in our daily jobs where we are playing Game of Throne games to keep our position in the company and despite being a top performing guy they can replace you in an instant if they wake up thinking so, this is the most thing I am proud as a gambler, I know that if I win it big friends will be happy and would be expecting a tip in return which is normal and logical, maybe we are not jealous of each other as we know very well the suffering we pass through our sessions before hitting a big one, so in the end personally from me there is no jealousy at all, only empathy and happiness for the person winning.

The lost ticket will trend more.  Generally speaking people get mad at other people winning big so they move on quickly.  But when they see someone lose 800k for some weird reason the internet loves seeing others do worse than your own situation.  It's just human nature unfortunately, so a losing ticket for sure will get more run than I winning one.

For me I would say it depends on the type of loss or win. Regular lose with small amount doest trend but if a huge amount is lost, it will trend just like that of drake. It is also vise versa which means small amount won doesn't trend as compared to huge amount won. So invariably highest lose and highest win is most likely to trend.

There Is no need to feel jealous, afterall you said it was almost thesame game. Meaning that it was not thesame game. I can only wish I played exactly the same game with him but didn't play it unfortunately.

I feel more excited when I read about wins. Losses make the news too, but I can sympathize with losers, since only a gambler knows how it is to lose money gambling. Other people will not understand and will act like he deserved it.
When it comes to the second question, I'd feel some regret that's for sure, especially if my friend started bragging about it, but I wouldn't envy him in a wrong way. I'd wish it was me, but with no hard feelings towards him. He wasn't playing against me but the system and he won that fight when I lost it. I can only congratulate.

Negative publicity doesn't really work for the gambling in my opinion cause it is gonna bring bad aura to the casino[...]
Are you aware that some people are thrilled just right after you trip ? For the most part, nobody cares if posting their slips would bring a bad aura to them casinos. [Have you realized how publicized the news was when Trump was shot?, even a lost tribe might have heard of it].  Tongue

Well, I mentioned why it will work for an individual while not good for the brand though, if the intention is just to flash the name then being shot reached wide however if we talk about a place where we mostly hope to make money isn't exciting when we hear a news that someone lost huge money in that platform which is kind of exact opposite of what people hoping for and that's why we don't usually see news from a casino when someone lose big but when someone win there will be some kind of advertisement in anyway like twitter post or in their official website,etc.

Of course, casinos will give an emphasis to big wins and not huge losses. Big wins is to entice players on their site. But we all know the fact that it is not for all.

But for players to post huge losses, it can be a negative publicity but it will give the notion that the site can handle big bets, which is actually good for the site. Though Drake's losses and wins are quite outliers, because he is a high roller on stake, but his big losses were usually the topic of discussions here because people just want to discuss basically with anything especially if the person is a popular.

I doubt people are excited about a fellow gamblers loss. Drake's case is only popular because he's a celebrity if not gamblers don't give a damn about how much you've lost. News about how much a certain gambler has won always encourages most persons to gamble more giving them the impression that luck could also shine on them. Thier are betting centres where people even like gambling in because they've heard that people win more at such betting centres and more people would want to bet in such place with the hope of getting a good result from thier.

gambling is a game of luck and if you don't win, someone wins at the other end. If you're even lucky that your friend won, it should be a thing of joy and not something to become sad about. We know normally because you hard the chance of winning just like your friend did, you're going to fell a slight form of regret why you didn't bet Same game that he did but that doesn't change what has already happened. My friend has sent me a game that he predicted will play and gave me to place a bet on that game. I was just not moved to bet during that weekend and I less than three hours, he sent me screenshots of his win. The thought of regret came to me at that point but I just shook it off and allow it pass.

It's all great advertising for a casino, so the casino where it happened is trending. We are certainly mesmerized by big wins as well as big losses, that's normal... We all would like to experience some extra big win, and when we see that someone has lost a lot of money, we want to hear and see more about it, what is almost unattainable for us attracts us...

It happened to me many times, and every time I was happy when someone close to me got a big win through gambling, even if I played as well and lost. Then we know who is paying for drinks & food that evening. Smiley

Psychologists believe that people are more triggered by negative news than positive news. This why news outlets like using negative news like death, war, losses, and natural disasters, for their news headline. I also observed that I prefer to read bad news first even when there is other positive news to read. Drake has also won several times but his losses are more popular. There is suspicion that his bets are public stunts to promote a casino. If this is true, it explains more why his losses get more publicity because it trends more.

Everybody will always want to be the winner, there might be disappointment which might give rise to jealousy. But I have learned to deal with envy or jealousy. My friend should win rather than both of us losing because he can give some part of it to me or can even pay my bills. I prefer a friend to win than the house winning.

Loss was the bigger one then a ticket for the winning.If one person had loss the funds,it  mean the player had huge money from that player.If the gambler had won that much money like 800k it’s enough for the player to get settled in their entire life.Many players will share about their winning among their friends and experience of successful money making from the gambling site.If my friend had loss that much money,he will create a huge noise in my environment of friends circle.The gamblers loss because of their huge greedy to the game and money making of the game.

If I'm the winner of a huge amount I don't want it to be so highly publicized that people can trace me it will jeopardize my safety, but I'm ok with publishing if a winner is anonymous.

And what between losing and winning gets highly publicized, casinos want to sensationalize it because it's like promoting their business so that people can win huge amounts of money.

And those who hate gambling or have negative feelings about gambling are likely to publicize to teach people that you can lose your fortune in gambling.

The gravity of either the lose news or the winning news will be based on how it occurs and who is also involved.
 
There are people who play and lose money more than Drake does, but because they are not known by the media, even if someone makes a publication about it, it won't be as popular as the $500k that a celebrity will lose.
 
To me, it's not about how much was lost or how much was won; it's about who made the news public and who is also involved in that event.

I participate in a lot of competitions here on the forum and literally my competitors' wins are my losses, but I don't feel jealous or anything like that. This is part of the competition and if you are unlucky today, then tomorrow luck will be on your side. The most important thing is to manage your money correctly and not think about other people's  Wink

I would definitely curse my friend, especially if the bet was made based on my recommendation. But somehow I have to realize that it was his win, it's not good for me to be angry or jealous of my friend's luck. But just as a joke, I would definitely curse my friend who won. And maybe my friend would treat me to dinner.
That's a good one. Some friends can be so furious, even beyond your imaginations; haven't you read cases where a friend was poisoned or stabbed severally by an unknown person, just in a burglary struggle and at the end, the close friend is found guilty? In all, I still prefer a private life!

Take for examples, the thread of the dude who lose $1.4 million dollars in a single bet, that thread is in the gambling board and it's more than 50 pages of discussions already and it's still counting, how many thread of the opposite (winnings) have had such huge followership and discussion participation on this forum?
This is an example of what I've been trying to picture... 50 pages and Still counting? WTF are people discussing about if I must ask??
For the person behind the huge loss; I understand that people do alot of shitty things behind their web can, but how's this fun?? $1.4 million?

Like you said, the topic is self explanatory, we all know that the world we live in doesn't really care about your wins, they don't really care about your happiness, they don't really care about the positive things that happen to you and your life, and this is why it's often advised that no matter what in life, try never to be a victim of circumstances, do not be a victim in ugly situations, because being a victim to any ugly situation gives the world a reason to negatively talk about you, whether your name is attached or not.

Negative things move the world people much more than positive things, so also, less people are likely to talk about your $800k winning ticket, much less than you will have people talking about the same if it's a lossing ticket.

Take for examples, the thread of the dude who lose $1.4 million dollars in a single bet, that thread is in the gambling board and it's more than 50 pages of discussions already and it's still counting, how many thread of the opposite (winnings) have had such huge followership and discussion participation on this forum?

You can definitely feel if you are in a place that you usually use to share stories with your friends will be noisy with laughter when you hear or see a bet from one of your friends lose. It's fun and very entertaining, but we have to remember to share our limits. There are parts that we don't need to tell our friends about our gambling.

Certainly, a big amount of bet is the most trending of all and that is why Drake is so popular whenever he shares his ticket. I don't think it's easy to match that.
But there are also tickets that are popular especially a winning bet that is made by a long parlay and the multiplier is way too much that it's almost impossible. I've seen those kinds of tickets before.

Now about the last question, I don't think I will approach a friend who won and not me. Why would I? He also risked his money to make that bet and we both just did the same. Just tell him congratulations and move on.

a golden rule, is to stick on own affairs  Grin .
I mean, if my friend is performing well isn't my business at all be envyous of his result.
Maybe I can try to understand some suggestions on the matter that's all.
That's why online gambling is always the best.
It's discrete and no one can have details on your activity / full privacy.

I think Winnings trends more. A gambler can win $800k today and he will post it on his socials to celebrate it, but this same gambler has been gambling almost every week for the past 5 years and he has never posted any of his bets because they were lost.
As for Drake, surely we can't say he never wins if he's a steady gambler, but we only hear about the huge losses he incurs because bad news is also more interesting (if you get what I mean).
Everyone knows the truth as a different level of transparency -- atleast on the gambler's end -- is assured to anyone that falls in that category. You can't blindly convince me about something and expect me to get enticed; the joy of winning a wholesome in a row is sickening...why? If y'all wanna sit down and calculate your loses, it's alot more than that. Drake maybe serving less or more like a "mannequin" in a fashion parlor! Atleast that's what I've been thinking!

We all gamble aiming for bigger winnings, so if you are one of those who hit jackpot prizes, you'll definitely be the trend and people can't resist wishing they'll also win a huge amount. However, losing could be somewhat become a trend most especially if you have lose a huge amount, but since gambling means making a lot of money, so people will talk more and focus more on the winning stories rather than sticking to some huge losses.

Negative publicity doesn't really work for the gambling in my opinion cause it is gonna bring bad aura to the casino but for an individual who wants to stay in the spotlight obviously sell them whether it's a win or loss as long as the amount involved is huge.

There's nothing to be jealous off, we lost and he won probably if we can go back and turn things then I can think about it but it's not possible so there is no use in feeling worried about a close call in gambling which is different when we are talking about taking risk with our career.

In my opinion, within the gambling community and ecosystem, it is more likely for a jackpot or hug win to be made viral and highly shared on social media. Much of it is consequence of the fact casinos and betting houses help to advertise those big winnings and jackpots, so more people will feel attracted to also wager some money on their webpages.
On the other hand, I have got the impression each time a big loss is made viral on Twitter or Instagram, it is because the person behind the betting is recognized (like in the case of Drake) or something specially tragic happened to the person who placed the bet in the beginning.

Also, There is no point to feel jealousy on other's wins, nothing good comes out of it...

I believe gamblers are more excited to read about its wins. It gives a sense of hope that you can actually in big too one day. Losses in gambling are normal things, every gambler loses, not as big as Drake, but they also lose. What's more interesting is that you cannot lose as much as Drake, but you can win as much as Drake.

I will not be jealous because it is not the same game since you used the word similar. I will only regret not playing the exact game he played to be a winner like him. Gambling is luck and I believe that it is impossible for two gamblers to play the same game and one wins why the other did not. So in this case it shows that I am unlucky.

A similar thread was created few months ago of two gamblers who the one that predicted the results added few matches to his own slip and lost the bet whereas his friend which he gave his predictions played the games exactly as he got it. It is good we should be happy and celebrate with winners, so that it will open doors for our own luck.

I think gamblers promote losing gambling more than winning.  Because at that time they are depressed and share it with others to relieve their depression.  But when they win, they try to keep it hidden because it is safe to keep hide their financial status

First of all money is true because money is the root of all happiness.  So when a close friend of mine played the same game at the same time as me and won and I lost, it's natural to feel a little jealous of him getting the money.  Because of this, one has to always keep one's gambling hidden and gamble alone.
