Friday it's a usual weekend in my country, so how is your weekend going? Are you planning on going clubbing in the evening? Always remember to stay safe out there.

Today being Friday, I was reading articles while searching for a topic to write on, when I read @HappyBoy article about sports bet, you can read it here https://read.cash/@HappyBoy/sports-bet-8c4aad0d I decided to write on it

I remember years back when I was working as a cashier in a sports bet shop (bet9ja), I myself thought that the business (sports Betting) was a get rich scheme for the poor

Years back when I was a cashier in a sports betting shop

When people comes to play bet, they normally tell stories of a certain person who won millions of naira (naira is the Nigeria currency) in this sport bet and that is enough motive for them to continue playing sport bet, when the league it's over, most of them usually go into virtual betting and they will lose alot of money trying to win money, most times they win and be very happy,I worked there for over a year plus and I can openly tell you that betting it's like a spirit, when you are into it, it will only take the grace of God for you to come out of it, I remember one man, he was my regular customer back then, this man is an engineer, he refer playing Virtual sport to real sport, cause virtual sport brings out results early, this man was playing nothing less than 50 thousand naira daily that's about 140$ then, most times he will lose and sometimes he will win, the man was fully addicted to betting, he use to tell me that when he hasn't gotten married, that he always playing bet of half a million naira daily, that's about 1,400$ then. I was shocked when he was telling me, this man was still staying in a rented apartment back then.

The way he was saying it as if is an achievement for him, these bet companies know exactly what they are doing, according to @HappyBoy there's no one who has made it big through sports betting, they are just deceiving you, people, by providing invalid millions won.

One thing I have observed it's that you won't see any betting shop in a wealthy men environment, but you see more than 5 sport betting shops in the street of a local environment, These sport betting companies know exactly where their customers are, they call it Rewarding passion for sports instead of gambling, so it won't sound like an illegal way of making money. @HappyBoy also said that they now use football legends to brand the sports betting business so when the youth sees it they will like to play sporting betting more, same goes with beer companies also though.

I have also seen so many people going into debt through my days as a cashier on a sports betting shop, so used their standing fan to stake games and still end up disappointed, someone usually buys games from some people who believe that they can predict games very well, most times they win and sometimes they lose more, I remember there was this man who was also my customer back then, he came to stake a league game in the morning on suite (it was on Saturday morning) I asked him why did he wore suite this morning, he said that he's on way his way to his own wedding then someone sent him a game, he quickly told his wife to be that he left something at home and he has to get it fast (Saturdays are usually weddings in my country) I was surprised like what is really happening here.

Confession

I was into betting myself, you can't be selling food and still, be hungry, to be honest, the way of best it's extraordinary, you will feel on top of the world when you are winning and there's a spirit that always whispers to your ear to play more than you have high chances of winning, if you planned to stake 2$ for that day, you will end up staking 20$ and you will still want to play till your whole pocket it's empty, I remember I lost 15 thousand naira, that's about 42$ back then. That day the spirit of sporting betting left me, lol.

Closing thoughts

I don't think that they will ban sports betting anytime soon, because the governments are gaining big from it, Celebrities are becoming ambassadors to sport betting companies and they are influencing the youths more to earn big by staking their money, if things continue like this, I'm afraid that the next generation would see gambling as a career or a course to study.

While gambling and sports betting share similarities, they differ significantly in context and experience. Gambling often refers to games of chance with little skill involved, like poker or slots, whereas sports betting requires knowledge of the sport, teams, and players you’re wagering on. In my experience, modern sports betting has evolved with technology, making it easier to place bets on my favorite teams, like when I use https://1xbetbd.com bookmaker. It's exciting to engage with the game at a deeper level. That said, what do you think makes sports betting a more engaging activity compared to traditional gambling?

GGBET places great emphasis on responsible gambling and considers it purely as a form of entertainment. Therefore, you should also not forget about a responsible attitude to the game. If you want to know more about GG BET then visit their page. They make sure that you take regular breaks, set limits on your gaming account and maintain a balanced approach to the game. It's your choice, but I'm still more inclined not to make gambling the main way of making money. Have a nice day.

I feel like betting on sports offers more information to rely on for a successful bet. Statistics, analytics, match predictions. I'm still more into gambling. Plus, there are so many cool casino switzerland online platforms now that offer fair and transparent conditions for leisure, entertainment, and earning money. I genuinely have fun gambling, while sports don't interest me enough to get into sports betting.

For me, sports betting is quite different from gambling. At the very least, it's a more stable income if we're focusing on money. Plus, the mechanisms and processes are entirely different. The only thing they have in common is the excitement and risk.

For me this is not just an interesting topic, but also an important one. Naturally, when I was new to this field, I did not understand the difference between gambling and sports betting. I noticed that this is useful for many people to know. I figured out many things thanks to this source https://c24vip.com/bonuses/ I admit, this site is number one for me. Here I found information about the best casino bonuses in Canada. Now I know absolutely everything about different types of rewards and this is very motivating. As it turns out, there are a lot of them: welcome bonuses, reload bonuses, free spins and much more.

I don't quite agree. Gambling and sports betting have similar elements in that they both involve risk and the possibility of winning. However, in gambling, the outcome relies heavily on luck, while sports betting can be based on statistical analysis. I recently read about sweden, found an article about https://casinosanalyzer.com/bonuses-by-countries/sweden-swe and I like it better. I don’t really like betting on sports because I get very nervous. Then I can walk around and think why I did it this way and not otherwise, and so on.

If you risk losing the value you put forth suddenly and in a short time, it is gambling no matter what you do. Sports betting is also a gamble and involves high risks. There are very few people who can be successful, they have a strong will and intelligence. He minimizes the risk, determines the amount of risk he takes, and places his bet. When he loses, he does not owe anyone, nor does he have any financial difficulties. Because the amounts he plays are never hard on myself, he just hangs out for fun. It is a great danger for people with a target to wander around these channels. They will surely lose their target one by one.

Some plays it for fun, mostly when they have little cash that they can stake without having a problem if they lose or not, I have seen people who studied the game and most of their prediction was wrong too. You can't predict sport betting all the time. Never

Wait!😂 on his wedding day? People can go to the extreme😂. According to an article i read on the guardian yesterday, it's been recorded that out of the 100 winners of the biggest wager/gamble or casino in the world, only 2 was still rich after 2 years. The thing is 1 out of 100 win big but they end up spending the money on betting again.

That's just one thing about gamblers, they always think that because they did it before, they can still do it again and again, but they usually end up regretting it.
