The psychology of sharing wins but not your losses

[Dave1]

Are you that kind of gamblers that only share their win with their friends and the hide how much you lost overtime?

Or are you that gambler that are transparent to anyone. We humans by nature, wants to hide something that could affect our status or our ego that's why I have meet gamblers who didn't tell everything. And when he is not around, me and my mate will talk about it. Not to attack the person, but just being brutally honest that before he won the kind of X big money, he might have lost a lot to in the process.

Taking about losing though, the society or even close friends might just you as stupid for losing big money, or being careless or simply weak as you don't know how to win.

Everyone like to show off their wins because it makes them look good and I think that is normal human behavior, but when they lose, they will just keep quiet, because it will make them look careless or weak. Losses makes you feel like you don’t know what you are doing, and i don't think that's a good feeling tho. To be honest, it's not only gambling, people really do that in life too.

But when you only show off your wins that is actually giving people the wrong picture that you're winning all the time. Not knowing that you have already lost × 10 of that money. For me, I think it’s better to be honest with the people around you, whether you win or you lose, it's all part of the game. No pressure ,no pretending. Hiding your losses doesn’t change anything. It just hides the lesson you’re supposed to learn.

No gambler will like to share his sad story with anyone because humans don't like to be seen as losers. They will only share their wins because they cannot hide their happiness from people and want to talk about it.

I don't care if my friend didn't tell me about his losses, if he is a responsible gambler. I will only ne worried if he gambles carelessly. I don't hide my losses from my friends or family members because it's an amount that I can afford to lose. Some people will mock you after you tell them how much you've lost to gambling.

Bro let's be plain and human, the process story isn't readily appreciated when shared like the success story. People are less motivated to share their losses since nobody celebrates you for the losses you incurred, people are only interested in your winnings.

Success drives interest, when you're losing and trying again, no one is interested in your story but when you win huge, you become everybody's celebrity.

Talk to a random person about the funds you've lost to gambling and they're least interested but repeat the process about your big winnings and see them want to overhaul you with admiration. That's the way the world works, we can't do shit about it.

I do not share my wins or losses with other friends and hide it. They don't have to know I am playing gambling. If we can hide our gambling activity from them, they will talk about it behind us. They will talk about other things but not gambling because they don't know whether we gamble or not. There is no point in them knowing we gamble or not but if they know we gamble and lose, they may easily to say bad things about us.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Sharing only my winning with friends tells quite the opposite of what gambling is, gambling is about winning and losing, so if I'm telling someone about how much I have won, I should also be able to tell the person how much I have lost, so that the person will understand that gambling is not one sided, the person needs to know that even while I win, I'm also facing losses most of the time, if not more often than the wins. I feel that when you keep telling someone about just your winning, you are deceiving them to think that winning is very easy in gambling.

When you understand that most gamblers will be more interested in showing people that they are winning in gambling and will rarely post losses, you will not be easily influenced by wins posted by any gambler or even a group where the claim to have a high win rate.

You will be less likely to gamble more or even join a group because they appear to always be winning.

I am the opposite lol, I like sharing my failures with people the most, why? Because this is a good way of knowing who you call friends, my intentions is to reveal who they really are.
If all you know about me is good news you will probably want to mingle along and be joyous about my wins but I won't be able to figure the real you out, but if I keep telling you about my losses you will reveal who you are.
So far it always work, right in front of me or behind my back, gossips will fill everywhere. Atleast you won't keep bad people around you without knowing what they are.

Are you that kind of gamblers that only share their win with their friends and the hide how much you lost overtime?

Nope, I am the complete opposite. My friends whom I played with on the same gambling center knew when I'm winning because my facial expression and my body language was too obvious, but the thing that they didn't know is how much. So, I'm like going to declare 50% of the total winnings I had. That way, I could only share a very small portion and keep the rest to my pocket.
The only time I'm being honest with the numbers is when I lost.

[Justbillywitt]

I talk about my losses and my wins with my friends as we are all gamblers and have nothing to hide. A true gambling won't judge you for losing money because a gambler knows that you either win or lose in gambling, so there's actually nothing to hide. But one thing I don't do is talk about anything gambling with people that don't gamble because we don't share the same interest in that aspect so there's no point discussing my losses and wins with such people. But to my gambling friends I share everything with them and they share theirs with me as well.

Well this is human psychology ig, we don't like to share how much we lost . For me , I don't share how much I lost today, but usually share how much I've won. This leads me to my friends have an Idea that I always wins 😁.

No gambler can won a big multiplier without losing a certain amount of their deposits. I remembered when I hit 3000x multiplier I did lost 20% of the winning previously. So do the math.

If you are telling your pairs about your gambling lose and they see you as stupid or careless for losing, it means that they are not gamblers and you don't need to share your gambling records with people who are not your fellow gamblers. A fellow gambler will understand that losses is part of the game and will not blame you since they must have experienced many losses too, but when you tell a non gambler how much you have lost, they will think you are stupid for taking risk in a game that doesn't have assurance of reward.
It's like a normal thing now, those non gamblers in the society always see gamblers as stupid people who are wasting money unnecessarily, they don't see gambling as a necessity, that's why they criticize.

With friends, I am actually transparent. They are like brothers to me, and I know that they will know if I am lying. Whenever I lose a bet, I tell them, and honestly, it's a good thing because it starts a discussion, and then I release my frustration on them. It's a win-win situation whenever we share our bets for the whole week.

For us, it's better than losing it all with slots. There's nothing to talk about slots, but there's so much when it comes to sports. From one story to another and then it goes deeper.

I don't brag about my wins and I don't complain about my loses. Sharing money-related stuff with other people can be dangerous.
Some people really can't keep a secret and I don't trust anyone(even my friends and family members). Bragging about your wins can draw the attention of people, with whom you don't want to mess around(criminals, thieves, thugs, etc.). Complaining about your losses can portray you as some kind of desperate gambling addict, who is ruining his financial situation. Keeping your gambling financial results for yourself is the best move.

[Haunebu]

This logic literally applies to anything in life and not just gambling where it's far, far easier to boast about your wins when compared to talking about your losses. Pretty simple psychology if you think about it.

I appreciate the ones that are willing to share their losses way more than the ones who share their wins since it takes a lot of guts as I mentioned.

[Botnake]

Are you that kind of gamblers that only share their win with their friends and the hide how much you lost overtime?

Yeah, because there’s really no point in telling them about the losses. It’s not their burden, and I don’t want to pass the stress to them. But winning, of course, that’s something you celebrate. Especially if it’s a big win, I wouldn’t hesitate to share it. And not just by showing the ticket, they’ll feel it anyway when I start buying them drinks.

First I do not owe it to talk about my wins and losses to my friends. In fact, I prefer to share my losses than my wins because if makes no one entitled to ask me for a loan rather it draws sympathy for me. I have noticed that this is what most gamblers do. We share more of our stories of losses than we do of our wins -  it is our default. And interestingly, gamblers are desensitized to it and will just have the mindset that such a loss cannot happen to them. These stories doesn't in anyway make to think about being more careful in gambling, rather they'll think they are immune to it.

[bakasabo]

I am the kind of gambler who does not share or try not to talk much about how much I won, lost or bet. I see no reason why others should know that information, because first of all it will be useless for them, second reason I dont want to receive any comment or reaction on that information. No one would be honestly happy about my wins, no one would help me to get lost money back.

[coinrifft]

Nobody wanted to hear losses and as a human, yes, it's like it has been ingrained in our mind that we shouldn't tell everything specially if we are a gambler and then we losses regardless of how big or small it is.

And gamblers have this kind of thing, bragging rights to tell everyone that he have won in this kind of games or sports betting. We have had one thread about his huge parlay bet and the money he won.

I have a long history of betting on my bet profile but not even my friend knows I bet and it's not limited to betting, there are things I don't like to share to people because privacy they say gives you and hedge because people only say things they know, they don't talk about things they know nothing about. When you show wins to people, they will want to take that opportunity so you can show them but they don't want to ask about the loss, that's because people loves money.

There are influencers that feed on this lies and deceitful lifestyle, it's only God that will judge those guys. They show their win to the public to create an impression that they are winning but they are not winning, the are actually losing and by the time they have enough trust they open a premium group for people to join, these are group you pay to join, it's after you join you now be seeing the beast they are mad of because you will never win anything from the group, you may win but maybe lose 5 and win 1, bad math's.
