Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game?

I am bringing up this because a popular Canadian musician Drake posted the games he played today on Stake,


Many of his fans who are into gambling as well, may have played same game without thinking. As it turns out, the game did not go as predicted for him and his bet lost.
Not really. I still play with what I think I’m good and skilled at it. But if we share common interest, then maybe I will try to play the same game with him. After all, I never gamble for huge amount, just an extra amount from my budget, so that if I lose, I won’t be fully regretting. The fact that my money is at stake, I’m sure I won’t take the risk gambling in a game without thinking, even if most of the games are still luck based.

Drake is very popular and that bet was shared many times which I also noticed. Arsenal won over Leeds but Barcelona lost to Real Madrid. Drake lost near to 50% of his bet. I am no fan of Drake, I don't like his music and his genre. I am also not following any of my idol celebrities bets if they were showing tickets and betting advice. The only chance I follow a bet from someone is when their betting and advice history are having high winning record.

If you're just influenced by a celebrity whose skill is inferior to yours then you're just wasting your money, adoring your favorite celebrity and playing with your own money is different, you can imitate your celebrity, dress the way they dressed but play and getting influenced is very different, you should check if he is better than your analysis if he is good then you can go for wat he's betting, if not then do your own analysis.

I’m influenced by my favorite celebrities to a point. For example, I’m a big fan of Shaquille O’Neal so when I saw him launch an NFT charity project, I wanted to buy in to support him. I didn’t care about the performance of the NFT or if I made money, but you could say I was influenced to buy it because of his celebrity status. Does this mean I would invest in ShaqCoin or use a gambling platform just because Shaq promoted it? Probably not, but it would likely get me to check it out.
In short, we all could be influenced by our favorite celebrities in whatever they endorsed, advertised, or what they even do on a daily basis. However, it will be our own decision and critical thinking if we will do, copy or even buy what they are promoting. Just as you've said, If Shaq has made his own token such as "shaqcoin" or is gambling on a certain gambling platform, then it will be our own decision if we will be investing or gambling on the same platform, but we have already been influenced by them to check those out.

Actually its undeniable that there influence can really convince us to try what they are doing but for sure in short time span we will realize that they are just enjoying what they are doing while us trying to get some money base on their suggestion. But still it will all matter to us on how far we can take what they are promoting since for sure if we been realistic here we cannot copy what they do and for sure it will be different scenario to us then we may struggle while playing.

Bisq Market Day - March 20th 2023

Celebrities are ordinary people like you and me. The only difference is the money or exposure they have that I do not have. It does not mean that they are more intelligent than I am or that they are all knowing. I will not make my decision based on what any celebrity says. Turn the question around and ask anyone if a celebrity tells them to put their hands into fire will they do it? And see the reaction.

They’re human like the rest. They’ve just got more money to spend than the average human does. That does not make them smart or a role model to others. Celebrities sometimes make the dumbest decisions.
Besides, no celebrity could Influence my decision on what and whatnot to do.

When it comes to public opinions, the people also like to go with the known celebrities and there's no doubt their influence is as such that perpetuate OgNasty as well to buy and jey into the token been adverticed, cebebrities have this public influence that can move and persuade people for a particular thing as long as the celeb has the interest and mind of the people along, we could see also in gambling that many casinos now use the influence of celebrities to launch thier tokens and advertise their website all because of influence.

I believe professional influencers are a good type of people one can choose to go after with the acknowledgement of their delightful and deligent service in the field of their expertise, everyone want to live big, grow and develop in every aspect of life and so are people desperate enough in looking for whom to look on as a model for them to achieve theit m target goals in life, it has worked out for good in many cases for gamblers or any other person found involved inbthis category of being influenced, time will evident it how they have been through together with the celebrity they chose.

I have some actors that I like right but if they make a bet I won't follow their advice because I know it's not their forte. most artists bet based on their feelings alone not with careful analysis, that's different from the predictors that are spread out there.
Seeing some celebrities were wrongly predicting the result of some matches in EPL. that proves that if we shall not even believe with them. They were judging based from their opinion and we have the same right as them even if we are not influencer like all of them.
I will never try to believe in others. I trust myself more than anything. That's enough for me to have  very good decision based from what i have gotten in my analysis.
I think that we have experienced so many people can be influenced easily if they were blatantly believing without doing any research before.

Influence is a broad thing. But given 'idols' have the power to encourage people towards or away something, there is a high tendency that some people would be affected or influenced by celebrities into such activities. Gambling perhaps is an example; those who are not into gambling could be persuaded to try which means there would be a chance for them to be hooked up with such activity one their attention is carried away. Factors such as trustworthiness (which I deem to be the biggest), could boost the confidence of those who are not really into it. There are many gambling sites to choose from but given someone they know promoted it, it could be something which could make them choose that specific website.

That's good because at least you can choose what's good for them and not always follow what they suggest. They are people who have more money than us and they will easily be able to get money in many ways while we have to work hard to earn more money. They can easily place bets because they have the money. If they lose, they must still have a lot of money. We cannot follow what they are doing because we have to manage our own money and not take risks like them.
Gambling should never be conducted by following a favorite celebrity on sports betting or other gambling platforms. We all believe that winning and losing in gambling depends entirely on luck. So before following someone compare with your own standards. If it matches your criteria then no problem but if not then research between the two opinions ‍and then you can bet wisely.
So true. If we just follow what our favorite celebrities do, I'm afraid we'll suffer a loss that we can't even accept and maybe we'll get depressed seeing the number of defeats we get. Maybe it would be better if we gamble only using the money we can afford so that if something bad happens, for example, we lose, we won't lose for the big amount. That would be more acceptable than following favorite celebrities because they have money, whereas we are not like them.

Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game?

Influencers/celebrities promoting a gambling platform became a trend nowadays since most of the people now have access on the internet.

Same as trying new product, I would definitely try the gambling game they promote and I guess it's normal to be influenced by the people we idolize. It's also hard to resist the temptation of not trying if those people are showing some good gains.

Honestly, in my country promoting online gambling platform from celebrities and vlogers are very trend as it was some project facilitator pay them to introduce their game. Which is when other people's see that their idols or thierb favorate celebrity promoting that then they will also try. So as I say that many people in my country got influenced in their idols in the internet or in the TV show.

This is a sound reasoning, but an interesting nuance is that if we take a professional in some field and he tells us his opinion about the bets or shows his bet on the upcoming sporting event (boxer on boxing, football expert on football, etc.), then we shouldn't listen to him anyway. Firstly, this is a money issue and here we can rely only on ourselves so as not to shift the blame on someone else. We must clearly understand that we ourselves make the decision. Secondly, even a professional in some kind of sport still cannot beat the bookmaker. Otherwise, we would only hear about how professional athletes or experts do it.

When I was a crypto newbie I used to think that the best projects always come from celebs, if the project isn't shill by a celeb I have no interest until John McAfee shot me in the leg, I trusted this man but one project I released was scam and I lost a lot of money, your money is your money do not trust celebrities.

Bad experience isn't it? if you try to listen to this so called influencers. Maybe it's really the psychology that this celebrities are bringing in the table like Drake and others that we have seen in Youtube or in Twitch. Watching them bet huge and makes us do the same.

The outcome though might be different, so yes, it's our money, so we need to be careful where and how we spent it in gambling and not just listen to this influencers.

Influencers are also promoters and they are just making a money thru the video they created so listening on what they are saying or doing then follow then is kinda not good to take. Maybe its a good basis to look at what they do but don't get hook with them since for sure they will not cover you up once you lose all your money. We need to be more careful on following them and only trust our instinct.

I definitely agree with this, we must not forget what these influencers do for a living. Companies are seeking for them because aside from their fame, they can promote their products as they knew exactly how to sell it by using some sweet words to the public. In reality, even these influencers rarely use what they market, so it's not really a good idea to follow what they are sharing. It's still good to find the answer yourself because it is your own responsibility, not theirs.

Not Your Keys, Not Your Bitcoin
It is a good thing to learn or follow up with the celebrities in sport generally because there's a taught that could be learned from their professional charisma but we must be very careful through which what we learnt from them, take the good and drop the bad ones, negative influence is bad and must not be encouraged at all means, we got some people who has been under follow up with their celebrities and later build their dream from it, we must only be vibrant enough in deciding forbthe good and not the bad characters from whom we follow.

Nobody is arguing that being influenced is bad, but when do you believe a fan should disregard that influence and follow their own judgment? Gambling is just one of the decisions that some people find difficult to make as a result of celebrity influence, as Drake has proved with the recently concluded EL Clasico. This wasn't the first bet Drake has placed and lost, and many of his fans have copied him in the hopes of making Gucci belts out of it. Who knows that it is a condition of agreements signed with stakedotcom to use Drake's name in marketing to sell a few tickets; in reality, Drake didn't lose any money.  Cry
