It is necessary to meet this sharing movement normally. If people enjoy it, they can always do it. We have to respect everyone's opinions. In my opinion; sharing such a share is a sign of self-confidence. It can also be called a little egoistic behavior in some cases. That's why it seems to me as unnecessary behavior, and I don't share like that.

Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.
I think it's a form of fun from everyone getting big multipliers and posting on social media. Now this does not become a reference if he is a gambler who is pursuing a target of defeat or vice versa. but this needs to be based on that it is just a thing to be happy when a big win can be seen by other gambling players. I do this often but there is no particular impact to suggest that I really have to struggle with getting bigger multipliers the next day.

First off, I think there's no need to post your winnings in social media, because it might back fire at you if someone gets jealous of your winnings and report you or whatever. Anyways, even if you didn't post it on any social media platforms, you will always chase your losses because winning feed your ego too much, that you must win no matter what.

That's why settings goals is important, for you to be satisfied whenever you hit your profit goal in a day or monthly.

Actually nothing wrong with it because we have different social lives so quite normal thing to do, but some people just do this to flex other people and some other just want to share like those things made their day, but of course  there's a possible risk with this like getting public your winnings with large amount and if someone has a bad intention to you there's a chance they wait for you and keep eyeing every time you do until they've got your money or other assets.

Technically speaking, there's nothing wrong with doing that. That's their own social media account and they are the only ones who will rule it. If those posts are being followed by their followers, they are nothing to do with it since, in the first place, there's no part of the post that is forcing people to follow it.

If you feel bad about it, better just ignore it. You can filter things that you don't want to see on social media or forums.

Don't take that freedom from them. If you are annoyed at those users posting their winnings on any platform, simply removed them on your circle.

I rarely use any social media platforms and I'd never post any of my wins, unless I was paid by the casino to do it, but that would have to be some big money.
My privacy is important to me and I wouldn't jeopardize that just to brag to my friends which is something I can do in private anyway. I don't need applause from people to know I did good.

I don't know if this is an addictive habit but it's obvious that people who post things like that without being casino promoters are attention seekers.

usually only affiliates work with the gambling site and share their winnings on their social media, some are arranged by the team from the gambling site to give winnings to affiliates in making gambling videos on their social media so that people are interested in signing up using a referral link them, sometimes not many ordinary people share their winnings on gambling sites through their social media
Actually I found it more appropriate to share winnings here in forum instead in social media because this is some kind of privacy though will not hurt them if they will share small wins .
but also this will lead them to be transparent from every elements in which some are seeking for potential victims using internet.
so better never to share our private activities in regards to crypto activities if we dont wanna lure scammers or hackers towards our accounts.

The best would be to just gamble, have fun while gambling and that is all, no need to share your winning.

I did like to share my winning in this forum years back as you can see in my post history, but it does not lead me into addiction. In fact I can reduce my gambling activity for more than a year already now. Sharing our winning is fun, it should be done for fun only and should not be taken as a must thing to do. Unhealthy or not, it depends on how you deal with your habit. As long as we can control our own habit, it wont be unhealthy thing.
I too think it is fun to share winnings, but is it appropriate if you share just your winnings without sharing all your bets too, I mean including the ones that are losses? I think if someone can not share his losses along with his winnings, not need to share anything. During those days that you share your winning, if you lose too, did you share your losses?

Yes in my opinion this is not a good practice and I would not encourage anybody to post a lot of gambling results on social media. First of all, why share your personal gambling experience with the whole world? Do you want to share your gambling results with friends and family, then I would rather send them a summary from time to time and maybe check first if they are really interest in it. It also makes it seem that you are heavily invested in gambling and your family and friends might become worried about you. In case I would share my gambling results with my family online, they would question my decisions and try to talk to me to gamble less. Then again, maybe you have a lot of followers online and positing your results is a form promotion or advertising and you receive money for it. It's important to not try and make more risky bets only with the intention to show them off online and try to look cool. We never know how legit the pictures are in the first place, and maybe someone only posts his winnings and hides all his big losses.

Personally, I don't see the point in sharing winnings posts on social networks, unless the person has a personal gambling channel where he helps to understand gambling, communicates with the community and shares ideas, reviews, etc. And if a person publishes his winnings just for self-affirmation in the eyes of the public, it certainly does not make any sense (at least for me). Besides, such behavior carries some risks for underage users of social networks.

People's behavior is often irrational - someone buys a watch/car on credit that he cannot afford in order to brag to his friends, someone draws attention to themselves in a different way. Apparently, those who publish their bets (wins or losses) have found their niche and in general this is understandable - if they are involved in gambling, then this topic is of interest to them and it is natural that they will make publications in this area.
For example, I don’t like some things, but I understand people who are fond of them, I remember that a couple of years ago some celebrity was exposed who had a “secret” account where she published methods for making onion rings. Sounds pretty weird to me but I can understand it.

I don't know if this is an addictive habit but it's obvious that people who post things like that without being casino promoters are attention seekers.

Thinking about the scenario, the person loves to brag about his winning, it is the character of the person.  From that, he is inspired to post his wins, and when time comes that he isn't avail to get huge winnings from his gambling session, the pressure ( from ego) of not being able to maintain his bragging piles up which can lead to the person chasing not the losses but the possibility of winning huge.  This kind of activity will have an impact in the long run.  It will make the person depress when he doesn't meet the thing he wanted to achieve and a great joy if he did get huge wins.  

We know that gambling addiction has something to do with emotions and dopamine secretion.  The ups and downs of the emotion of this person can somehow trigger an addicting effect to gambling which can lead to gambling addiction.

For me, the Italised part is were it all makes sense  as per how the habit develops in this circumstances. When you've got people following you on what ever media your using.

There is always a burden that comes with having people looking up to you. You've got to be current and at your best to keep them updated. No one wants to be using old tricks or be following up on a looser.
This would in turn put you under pressure to increase on some aspects to your betting and even frequency to always end in profit which could always be the reverse in most cases $lose.

It's a strategy not worth considering.

I must be honest with you, i think this on a higher percentage depends on the individual, i for my self know that i can never chase loses for the sole purpose of have some winnings to show to my followers, i understand there are people who would go out of their way to please their followers, that is, giving them something to talk about always.
I know of someone in my area who posts fake winnings on his twitter are Instagram page, if for like two or three days he's not been able to secure any win, he will use the photoshop tool to edit his previous winnings just to have something to share with his followers, i honestly would not advice any one to go after their loses all in the name of trying to have something to share with their followers, in this process, they can end up loosing even more money.
There are people who do really love on getting praised by the people around or on social media which it do really satisfied him/her.This is why we do see that some do really eager on playing just to have some

show off into their profiles and be praised which they do really like to hear out.Some doesnt care and some do really matters, this is why it do raises up some question on why the hell they would really be doing
that which they do know that they could really be having huge losses if they do keep on playing and chasing wins?

This is indeed a habit and if you dont have that good self control and discipline then you would definitely be putting yourself into problems.

I do not think its a good idea to train yourself to bet for social media clout to become popular.

When it comes to betting, there is no such thing as "the most popular" way to bet. Its just not possible because the only thing that decides if you win money or lose money is luck. Or more clearly said, mathematical probability.

The probability of winning in the lottery or sports betting is much lower than winning in simpler games, such as Blackjack. So this might be "most profitable".

But either way, you should not go into gambling with a "I am doing this to make myself a social media star" mindset. You are only setting yourself up for failure and catastrophic, emotional betting after said failure.

There are different reasons why anyone would do this..

1. The person might be doing so to promote the gambling website, maybe the dev are paying him or her.

2. The winnings might not be genuine, they might be doing this to lure people like you who can't take their eye off others winnings online.

Also someone talking or posting their winnings doesn't mean they will end up losing I have never heard of such before.
1. If he is influential enough, there would really be casinos that would pay him for his reach to his own personal profile. But, casinos would only do that if he's truly famous.
2. Well, with winnings, I don't doubt anyone with it as it is their success. But when they're only sharing it and not transparent with their losses too, there's something wrong with them.

I personally don't like to share my winning to my social media and this forum because if I post my winning amount, the losses amount is higher than my winning, so it's just make me to not show a real condition of my gambling history. As a gambler you will keep losing since the house edge always on the casino side. Only few casino have a happy hour promotion where the house edge is 0%.

I don't know what some sort of gamblers stand to benefit from announcing themselves tobthe public than doing them much harm beyond expectations, as long as I can't post all my losses made on social media then there's no need to begin to announce myself online, this sounds a little of being inmature enough, those little things like that get some gamblers freaked to the extent of loosing control in excitement, winning such amount maybe consider as nothing to some because they have bet with higher amount to the one he just won.
They can do it for marketing purposes and to grow their social medias and channels. The more people following them, more money they can make through referrals and advertisements. In order to do this, they have to show positive and progressive results along the time, so others will follow them in an attempt to reproduce the same results. I believe it doesn't lead to addiction, because people doing this kind of content are aiming profit through increasing their audience. If they become addicted to gambling, they won't be able to profit from this activity anymore and won't be able to keep uploading content to their public, since they will be bankrupted at some point.

Maybe it means a lot to those who often flaunt themselves, getting big wins from gambling. I often saw a friend of mine who did it often, either in gambling or trading. And sadly, they don't want to say much about how they got it, so many of us don't like it.

It would be fine if they could tell them what it would take to make big profits like them and not appear to brag about their abilities. Remember that many experts are better than them or us so we don't have to brag in public.

There is a type of person who is very fond of showing off on social networks no matter what. Their main goal is to make everything beautiful. Someone sees a beautiful car and takes a picture next to it, saying that he won this car. Others, however, know that money loves silence, and in order not to frighten off luck, it is better to be modest, rather than letting your vanity scream to the entire world. 
Firstly, it is very correct for your own safety, and it subsequently relieves you of the stress of showing people how lucky you are, although luck can turn away at any moment.

TBH, I don't know the feeling of it because aside from the fact that I only gamble a few times, I'm not posting anything on social media at all.

It depends on the person I guess because there are some who are just posting their winnings on social media because they wanted to. There are some who are posting it on social media because they want to brag their winnings and that's very unhealthy if you will ask me. I also have friends on Facebook who is posting their winnings in gamble such as Dice, Bingo if you are familiar with and Roulette, but most of the time I only ignore it.

I also don't know why in the hell they are posting their winnings. I mean isn't it dangerous because posting it means you have more money and more money equals more attractive to criminals?

it is the attitude mate, even without posting in social media but if you are a kind of person that don't wanna give up easily? then you will keep chasing no matter what.
but for  me? why need to post in social media when your friends and family may find you winning and will ask you for tips lol.
Its like flexing what he achieve for the day and maybe they don't worry about doing those because maybe they know that their family members will just ask low amount or will not care about those money. But its up to the person since  there are people who can handle things and by simply posting it will just feel them more happy.

If your goal is to build a good statistics and then you are planning to show that off in social media, then yes you will chase or recover your past losses but that is something that is hard to do and can only lead you for more losses but if your only goal is to show off a win then that is more doable.

I think you will know if someone is following you or admire your gambling post because they will like your post, comment or message you privately about it. It's important that we will be honest and humble. Admit to them that you cant always pull off a win because this was gambling and not some kind of an atm machine. That way you will not be pressured and try too much.

Aside from it's a bad habit since it can develop into addiction in the long run, it's really not good to post your winnings because you also put yourself in danger. Unwanted people like criminals might monitor your movements and possibly harm you when they get the chance. Even your relatives are at risk because someone might use them as a leverage to extort money from you.

To be honest, sometimes I post screenshots of betting on social media, in this case football betting. not infrequently too, I post parlay bets on social media, there's nothing wrong with that.
and IMO, it's no different than posting other things that are still related to betting. similarly, when I get a big profit from trading BTC and then post it on social media.

this is purely just personal satisfaction without being influenced by the motive of wanting to look cool, great or anything like that.  so I guess, related to the OP's post, everyone will be different and go back to their own individual. as well as how you see it, the perspective will certainly be different.

Regarding habits, anything in excess will have a bad impact.

People that always do thus are media influencers. It could be that they are paid by some gambling companies to always post and advertise their site. Another thing could be the person gives people prediction and takes money. So they will post more and more winnings so that people will believe them that they are very good in winning bets, by then they will have more customers and make more money than they win.

No, I disagree.. it is not just paid Social media Streamers that are doing this... there are a lot of people that are not streamers, but they simply want to brag with other gamblers about their winnings.

Take the Stake.com English Chat for instance... people post their latest wins all the time and then people will start the "begging" for rain, just after it was posted. A lot of those people are doing it... for self gratification ....and others are doing this to show the other gamblers that they won against the house.  Roll Eyes

Posting your own wins isn't bad on its own and it's possible that it could encourage you to chase losses but I don't think it's always the case based on the winning posts that i've seen. Others post their wins as a way to promote the site then there are some that post their wins so they could share their experience. Every winning post doesn't always show how much they've lost before hitting that win but I just think it depends on the person's mindset for example if they require themselves to post their wins in every session.
Yes, I do agree here, sometimes you need to share your experience and post your winnings and your bet before hand. But I don't think it will led to gambling addiction. Maybe the gambler itself is already addicted that's why he keeps posting.

But for those who are not, I'm sure posting will not be an issue for them. And I don't think that they are also going to chase their losses, it's just the experience that they are sharing.

I think it is stupid if you do it on social media, unless you make a living from it by being a gambling Youtuber or something like that. On forums you are more anonymous, so it makes more sense. I see more advantages than disadvantages. It is one thing to answer a specific thread on the subject, but to give an account of it as if it were the income statement of a company does not make sense. It is better to maintain privacy.

Sometimes it's normal to be proud of your winnings because it can give you joy and satisfaction.

I think this is human nature where always proud for his achievements,

Are you aware that, with very few exceptions, the results of casino games do not depend on you? It's like being proud of rain or shine.

Because if you have this habit of posting your winnings, you might be pressure to gamble often to win and it's not really healthy since gambling is risky and there's always a high chance to lose your money.

Hence much better to refrain from posting and dont make it a habit because it can affect the way you gamble.

I'd honestly consider any sort of sharing personal info on social media as unhealthy. It's not really a matter of "chasing loses", just that it's, well, you really don't. If you were trying to copy celebs, streamers, and other sorts of famous people, their entire lives center around being public, not something I'd honestly recommend, but well their jobs revolve around that anyway.

But well, if you're account was anon, then I guess it's fine. The mindset of wanting to chase more winnings isn't you posting at fault imo, I mean in the first place before you got that win, just imagine how many losses you had before? You've always chased for a win, whether it's due to wanting to share it or not.

Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.

I believe this habit of posting your earnings came mainly from players who stream.
However, they often have the purpose of earning some commission for the advertising they are doing on the site.
Ordinary players do this for the simple pleasure of "having to" share their winnings.
I see two problems there... the first is security because many give up their privacy and post these results on social media like facebook and twitter where many know the player personally.
The second is exactly what you said... the "need" to play more and more to keep posting more and more frequent and biggerwinnings.

One of the main reasons I prefer online or crypto gambling is because it promotes privacy. Posting my wins or losses on social media is a no-go area for me because my gambling life is even secret. Secondly, I don't think gambling is a very good habit that should be exposed or publicized. Most social media platforms don't have policies that restrict underaged users from accessing them. Your post might reach an underaged child who might see your wins as a motivation to start gambling. And children are more prone to gambling addiction.

I don't also think it is ideal to chase your losses. Trying to recover your losses can lead to more losses because gambling is unpredictable. It could also lead to financial recklessness and gambling addiction. It is far better to have restrictions and see gambling as a form of entertainment and not a source of income.

Posting your own wins isn't bad on its own and it's possible that it could encourage you to chase losses but I don't think it's always the case based on the winning posts that i've seen. Others post their wins as a way to promote the site then there are some that post their wins so they could share their experience. Every winning post doesn't always show how much they've lost before hitting that win but I just think it depends on the person's mindset for example if they require themselves to post their wins in every session.

It is actually not good to post our gambling wins in social media.  One of the reason is the possibility of people having ill intention to the posters.  Aside from that, if the intention of poster is to brag then it is possible that a person will keep on gambling just to have some winnings to brag for.  I agree that I might develop a habit of chasing losses but I think it still depends on the person.

This is the first time I've ever even heard about someone doing this.  First off, the number one rule in finance should probably be  DON'T TALK ABOUT YOUR MONEY TO OTHER PEOPLE/OUT LOUD.  It is no one else's business how much money you make, how much money you gamble, or how much money you win gambling..

Keep things private, don't talk about what you have or won, it's no one elses businesses.  Plus there's a million other reasons it's simply not a smart thing to do.

This depends actually since you also mentioned about posting only your "winnings" and not your losses.

Posting your winnings and the amounts that you received respectively can most likely influence other people from gambling as well when they see your winnings. The potential danger here is not about chasing your losses but actually influencing the younger generation in this destructive habit. Maybe to balance this out, you should also post your losses as this can be considered your "wake-up call" in choosing NOT to gamble further.

In my opinion, it would be better if we didn't post anything related to what we got, including the results of trading cryptocurrencies, the results of crypto payments from any program, and our investments, including the results from gambling.

The reason is for the security of our assets or account itself. Apart from what the OP has already explained, posting on social media will attract more hackers to find out what we have and where. And the online world is sometimes very cruel, where hackers can easily hack what we have. So, to reduce the risk and increase security, it would be better to avoid posting on social media.

What's more, posting gambling results will also make judgments in our social environment, and other people's perspectives on us. Especially if we live in an environment where gambling is something that should not be done. While we may be indifferent to our point of view, what about our families?
Plus, what if the authorities find out about our gambling activities? This will be problematic mate, especially if gambling is prohibited in our country.

Posting the losses on social media is not good for any gamblers. This lets them have a reminder to gamble, even if the user finds a way to stay excluded from gambling. This will make surrounding people judgemental over our activities. Addictive Gambling happens when the gambler is emotionally down.

^ You can try it yourself and do an experiment with this.
But on my side, I won't do that thing for my own reason, I prefer to become low-key and don't tell to anyone that I have won. The reason could be your security and your life may be put in danger if they know you consistently win in gambling. Social media won't be a place where everything your activities people know, all your life happens people know because possible, this lead to knowing more you if there is someone who has a bad interest in you.

There are people who do really get proud on sharing up their winnings in public which would really be giving out that kind of motivation for them to play and feeling up being contented because they do able to hit

some winnings but of course it is something that would be always happy days because there would really be those losing moments but eventually those frustrations would be entirely be wiped out

once you do win again.I do somewhat partly agree that having this kind of mindset would really be motivating you or be pushing you to play more which is something
that you could be able to post up something on your socmed.

Aside from this, you’re putting yourself on a bigger risk so I’d rather win secretly than to expose it.
I see a lot of my friends sharing their winning trades, and this is their way to market their other crypto agenda and I think if you are working online, this might help but when it comes to gambling better not to post it because many thinks differently when it comes to gambling activities. You can share your happiness on a different way, but don’t post your winnings, it’s too risky for me.

In this community? I sometimes posts my winning in the sports that I bet, but it's very seldom. I post it to show that I did have a bet on that player because I have mentioned it before the game, but I hide how much money I bet, not good to brag how big you put in. But in social media? no, I don't want to exposed myself and why would someone do that? unless you are really into gambling and that you have a lot of money and followers in all of your social media account. And as far as getting addicted, still base on the individual itself, maybe he will be push to show more of his winnings to keep up with this social media "status".

What people are really looking for is result and this had made lots of persons make more loses because they will want or be like a particular person without knowing what the person had undergone to have such kind of result. Everywhere is tight and some newbies gamblers are not really calming down to learn the strategy or relax enough to gain experience before urging to make bigger winnings even when they do not understand the way things are going.  Gaming is very difficult but some persons still think that everything is always based on luck which is very very wrong.

I see no reason why you should post your winning on the social media, their are somethings you should keep personal, I think it's really bad posting your wining on social media, if you keep on winning and people starting noticing, then some people might start tracking you and will want to harm you or steal from you, that's why I think anything that has to do with money should remain personal.
Am sure the person will only post his winning and won't post whenever he lose, so he will want to gamble always so that he can win and post it and whenever he lose he will keep on gambling so that he can win and post which at the end the amount he will lose will more than the win, just because he wants to impress people.

It's really subjective though, I mean though perhaps those who are posting are like social influencers and wanted to show their winnings. Or they are really a big whales and they need to flash and show their money around. I remember Floyd Mayweather always do that, mentioned how much he bet on certain events with pix of the ticket. If not the ticket then the whole winnings itself, the money in front of him.

But for normal gamblers like the majority of us, I don't think we need to post our winnings. Yeah, perhaps some, but not everything should be exposed. Just keep the winnings for yourself and if someone ask then tell them that you either win or lose.

because if you are only posting your winnings, the pressure will always be there to chase your winnings. however, in doing so, you may end up spending a lot as winning is not always be at your side. also, ask yourself, what's the reason why you are posting those results publicly? is it to boast  your winnings to the public? because if the reason is just too shallow, better not to. you are also making yourself prone to online fraudsters. there's no need to post your winnings via social media channels. much better if you can just celebrate it on your own and you will be more at peace with yourself.

Yes, I think this is a fair statement. 

Gambling requires attention and concentration.  When you post about your winnings on social networks, forums and instant messengers, you are not focusing on gambling, but on communicating with your subscribers. 

This can lead to negative consequences.  This applies not only to gambling, but also to trading.  Many traders have reported a decline in their financial performance after they started blogging about their trading experiences.  There is a saying - Money loves silence.

In my opinion, you shouldn't brag about your gambling winnings.  This can lead to financial losses.

Unfortunately people can be rather fickle creatures, so if you are vain enough to be posting your wins then it is very possible that they will chase the behavior that you're suggesting. However I'm not sure who considers this normal if you are an average wage earner? Maybe if you're a millionaire celebrity who can afford and manage the losses, it might draw in a certain sub group of new subscribers who find that sort of content interesting. However if you are a "nobody" just posting to friends and family, you might find your friend list shrinks as people see it as destructive and anti-social. It's likely the habit formed for other reasons than feeling the urge to post such content in most cases.

I believe it depends on the person. Suppose they are fueled by how social media works, like with all the likes and reactions on a single post, it's going to be troublesome because if they are going to be constantly going in for the likes, there could be a chance that you are going to be so desperate enough that you would either hurt yourself by the image that you want others to see. If you cannot have that, then you will have a problem. It will affect you financially and mentally with all the dependency on gambling, making it even more attractive to gamble. That's going to be hard if you aren't going to be managing yourself with the possible addiction.

I think you could have a point about posting your gambling habits online. Although I could agree that posting losses would be more harmful, I don't believe that posting winning will lead you to chasing your losses.

Chasing your losses is a really bad habit. It has been proven time and time again that it is a losing strategy as it leads to bad play and is a sure way to lose more money. The best way to stop this is to take a break from the game when you are on a losing streak. It means that once you have lost a certain amount of money, stop playing for that session and move on.

Some gamblers do post their winnings on social media probably in a bid to form or create a telegram group where some gamblers will subscribe to that channel by selling betting tips having convinced members who are willing to join the group with confirmed and consistent winning streaks on their social media platforms, because I think those who do so has ulterior motive in doing so to achieve a certain aim, personally I wouldn't do so to protect my indentity and wouldn't want to expose my anonymous online gambling to the public and by doing so might also entice newbies without any experience into gambling to lose their money.

yes that's what i thought and i said also that it's not healthy to share it on social media too because we don't know someone else is watching and trying to play without asking us anything about the gambling site we share, if that person loses a lot of money that too It's a pity, so it's better to be a closed person it would be better or sharing in this forum with other gamblers it might also be okay

I think that everyone who is familiar with gambling understands that if a person publishes only winning bets, this does not mean that he only wins. It is impossible to always win, but everyone loves to brag about winnings more than about losing, so often in the media space there is an impression that almost everyone wins. Perhaps this can push a beginner to make a bet.
As for those who publish their bets, of course they are dependent to some extent - they are used to making content and receiving feedback from their audience. But if they don't have winning bets, why not post a losing bet (and get public compassion)?

Posting or showing off your winnings seems like you are trying to prove them something or even trying to please them with your gambling results. Things like this shouldn't be posted on social media and must be kept private. It will only attract criminals to stalk you and scam you in ways that they know. It's better to be lowkey and keep your winnings private because your gambling journey is a confidential matter. It isn't needed to prove to people that you're earning or winning in gambling because others won't feel happy with your success in gambling and some of them might just wish you bad luck. You don't have to please anyone so you better enjoy your gambling journey without others knowing it.

I don't think it's a bad idea if someone decides to post his or her winnings on social media or a forum for people to see because most times people are motivated by the winning of others and they become zealous to keep trying hoping to also win in their gamble some day. When it comes to posting winnings on social media, I don't fancy the idea rather I prefer to see the games posted by the bettor before posting the winnings because a lot of winnings you see on social media are mostly copy-and-paste winnings posted by scammers to attract greedy gamblers who will be willing to pay certain amounts to be given some games to play. Post your winnings but also post the games before they start so that other gamblers will also smile with you after the win.

I wonder why you want to post up your winnings on social media in the first place when people have been advised many times to keep their private life off social media as much as possible.
I get it when people are overwhelmed by their feelings especially if they've won such an amount. But even if the amount is not that much as long as it's a green and wins, it's a proud moment for us gamblers to share it publicly.

If someone has no problems being seen by their friends and relatives sharing things related to gambling, that's a good situation and it means that you're free to express your gambling activity.

I guess that sharing on social media is just pure joy.

show off on social media and something that has risks like for example the person can win in a game and then post it on social media and then the thieves go to the person's house and steal from him and even kill him, I've seen cases of people in mine parents who got rich and started posting and the thieves went to steal from their house and tortured her, but they were lucky they didn't die. there are special cases where a person creates a channel on youtube or twitch and the person has to play live and show their victories to have more audience and earn more money, that is a business or work so it makes sense that people post them there their earnings, what people need to do and be careful when posting wins, going to post on facbook or instagram or whatsapp is not a good idea unless the person also wants to give some betting course

If they won more than they lost, maybe it would be okay. But we are talking about gambling where we will not always get the win and the loss will happen. And if they did that, maybe they've thought about only posting their wins on this forum and not going to post their losses. We can't do anything because maybe it's their habit to show off their victory to the public and it makes them feel satisfied. But importantly, if you follow that person, you better always be careful not to show your winnings on forums or other places and keep it to yourself.

Just showing off the victory, of course, has a purpose to continue to be praised about his ability to always win, even though defeats occur more often and are never posted. This has indeed become a habit for gamblers who are obsessed with winning and don't want to experience defeat. This is a start for the overly extreme casino junkie. People who follow him on social media certainly don't know what's really going on.

Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.
I don't find any fault if you're posting your winnings in a forum because nobody knows you there. But if you're posting that in social medias, you'll just going to extract all of those negative energies that might be from your friends that don't want to see you winning.

You may get some secret desire that you should incur losses instead of winning from your friends on social media. Although, I don't see anything wrong if you do that at most times but, try also to practice to post your losses if you're sharing your wins but it's fine if you want to just keep them.

Because of reputation? depends on the individual. The tendency to chase losses depends on the drive of the gambler and his resources as well. There are times a gambler who's suffering from loss will continue playing to get back with his losses which sometimes being referred as greed. There are also times wherein no matter how the gambler wants to recover from his loss, he willbe forced to stop because of his capital. In terms of posting social media which I believe can be or relevant with 'clout chasing', i think it is not a strong basis because users could just post their winning bets or recycle past winnings if they are just into clout. There are ofcourse times these variables would correlate but most of the time with weak relationship.

Of course, the nature of posting winning gambling on social media or on forums tends to be public and can pose risks that can harm other users, Maybe unconsciously, many people think that gambling sites or individuals win professional gambling players, of course other users will try their luck and try to place bets on the gambling site, based on the post information.

In general, information about gambling winnings posted on the internet is generally permanent, other users are quite easy to see and access, but as far as I know this is a phenomenon and a gambling problem that has been around for a long time, For this reason, even though there are those who think that gambling wins are professional bettors, other users should look at privacy and information elsewhere to be able to avoid and not rush to draw negative and positive conclusions.

Without having to share or post the winnings you get, you will always be motivated to catch up on the losses you experience after losing during the betting session.

so, I don't think that there is anything wrong if someone has a habit of displaying or posting every win that he gets in every betting session. there's nothing wrong with that, the only thing that is part of the problem is "motive" if someone has a motive just to look cool, to be great, or to show off. as you said in this post, that's the problem.

In football, we are used to many members sharing screenshots of their betting. some people win bets as they predicted, some others don't get lucky. and I think I personally, this is commonplace.

It's immaturity to announce your winnings on social media, why don't you do the same whenever you loss the bet? its an act of low level of seriousness to be doing such, there are alot of risk associated in doing so, no privacy and it does not help retain the level of respect and extreme pedigree placed on you in the public, gamblers are now common with social media advertisements and displays but what i think is that the casino may post winning bets to advertise themselves and not the gamblers doing so because it also bring about another interpretation on people's mindset towards you the gambler.

This is a bad habit that any gambler can develop it's more like dopamine you feel excited and feel rewarded every time you have winnings to post on social media and forums, chances are you cannot keep up and you will never keep up because there are more losses than winning in gambling and you will always pressure yourself to win to the point that you will gamble money that you cannot afford to lose and this is where addiction and misery started.

There's nothing wrong on chasing achievements because it's something that you can’t do on daily basis. The problem is the the place that you will share it because there might be a chance that someone tract you and attck you personally since you are showing your winnings. This will only advisable if you are using a social media account that doesn't contain any of your personal information to protect ypu from doxxing.

And also Casino has a chatbox meant for this kind of achievements sharing so that your audience will be related to whatnyou are sharing.

It's actually their right if someone keeps posting to social media every betting result because no one is harmed, but the habit will be judged by many who see it like an addict.
and the positive side especially winning posts will motivate other gamblers to win like that person and should include good advice to win, and the negative side will be followed by other gamblers who are actually his luck to win. And even though it's followed doesn't mean other people have the same fate, even though it's the same way and also has a long process to get their luck.

there are many people doing this to impress followers. attention is addictive just like the LIKES in facebook post, social media kids today feel sad when they see only few people liked their post.

it could get worse when you don't get likes from followers especially when you post a small amount win. the bigger you'll bet sooner to impress them. my suggestion is before you dive deeper into a hellhole. stop it.

Definitely, it will, you should never chase your losses or gamble just to show your winning, and if you are uploading your winning you also need to upload your losses, in fact, you can educate your followers if you upload or show everything, your winning your losses and your experiences but not to the point of chasing your losses or extending your gambling session in the hope of winning so you can post your winnings, you should be a responsible gambler.

I don't think so, because it could be that when posting the winnings just to express happiness and I see a comparison of those who post wins with those who don't still have more that don't, I'm sure they-those who often post them also don't always post the whole victory especially on this forum because they have considerations

It's very possible if there's a gambler who have this kind habit become an addict, but not all of them will become addict. Usually they're share their winnings on social media or this forum in order to let anyone know if he's lucky on that day. No one force him to share his winnings, except there's someone who keep asking to provide big winning amount everyday which will make him get pressured and gamble more.

It will put pressure to the player who always post online or in social media his winning. It will be frustrating if there were days that he can’t win and will tend to play more just to win and to have something to post to the point that he will not notice that he have more losses than winning. Many now post everything they do online for fame, it either people admire him or hope he will win or not, any of the two we will need to be responsible in our action and know when to stop when losses and winning happens.

Its kind of an update to the followers wnd then followers also expect updates. If this is what your followers like then you really have a community of gamblers.

So post an updates ofnyour loss also, I'm sure those followers and not expecting you to win all the time. You have no duty to keep updating but gamblers knows casino house always has the advantage.

This is not exactly why I gamble first but to me this is a consequence,I play to win so that I can share it on social media.The problem is that most of the time I don't win and keep losing the money but I have great self control and do not play more than 100 dollars a week,money I can afford to lose.

If I win I love posting it on social media and I love it more to post here in the "Slot101" thread where we discuss only slot machines there and different games plus strategies.The only problem is that is several months I am not winning a big amount while I am losing every week some money.

Anything that is excessive and you are doing it to impress is risky, especially in gambling, gambling is a game of luck you cannot force yourself to win because of the habit of trying to impress other people you are tempted to push yourself to win and this will harm your pocket and your mental health, in fact, we need to be discreet whenever we win a huge amount of money, gambling is not something you can use to show off how good you are.

If you want people to be following your prediction, you can do that. But can you be perfect about this, I do not think so. There are days of losses and days of making profits and I will advice you not to do so

As for me, I do not think about gambling this way, I just gamble little and I do not have to let people know about my profits or losses. If you lose and play more for you to let people see that you will, what if the losses continur? It increyase the chance of you losing more.

In my opinion, if a gambler is still trying to win back his losses, it is absolutely irrelevant whether he will publish information about losses/wins in social networks, because it certainly will not change his principles. In fact, such people only need to understand that losing at the casino or betting is a completely natural phenomenon. And if you look at the statistics gamblers lose much more often than they win. So it's better to play for fun and not to keep track of their statistics.

Maybe there are several factors that made him do that, especially for posting material or also being able to tell everyone that the gambling place he played was a real win, not as if the gambling site was unfair, that it meant to tell, the possibility 2 factors in my opinion...
