Black sports fans & sports gambling

["It Was Always Jerry"]

I thought it would be more too, but it’s
Just like a table game of blackjack or something. How many people do you see in the high limit room v how many people you see at the $5, $10 table. Most people doing long parlays is what he said

That's a great point. The higher limit table be damn near empty when I would go to the casino.

That gambling shyt is being pushed any and everywhere.. I even hear women talking about gambling, its gonna be a major problem soon if it isnt already, everybody been bought from major networks to the smallest podcast..

Brehhhhh....full disclosure I don't bet at all. But it must already be a full on epidemic because it. Is. EVERYFUKKINGWHERE. And I see people talking about it who I know just a few years ago had never followed a sport in their lives.

I'll admit I can't watch a full game of sport without having money on it even if its 2 dollars

this is currently me

 

[Ghostface Trillah]

I put $45 (min.) at the beginning of football season in my online wallet to start the season.

I haven't won anything and I think I have like $5 left. I only do parlays tho and usually one team spoils it for me. That frustrates me to the point of not continuing, lol

Don’t do parlays bruh. They’re designed for you to lose. You’ll be better over a longer amount of time doing single bets. That’s why they advertise and promote parlays.

I realized I like people that gamble way more than the regular die hard fans that have an opinion on every game, in every league in the world. Put some money on it lil nikka. If you know Dak gonna choke every year or it's rigged for Alabama to win the championship WHY YOU NOT GETTING MONEY.???!!!!!

 

[Rocket Scientist]

I heard of a dude with such heavy betting problem he lost his whole barbershop

 

[Braman]

I thought addictions were a joke until I started doing parlays. So let me get this straight I can bet $5 and win $1000 ……I havent hit yet

But I’m betting like $30 a week. And I bet kinda long odds. And even for me I’m like I’m down $120 in 2 months I gotta chill . To think there’s people losing thousands is insane


A shorty told me her coworker, a breh, had to report himself so he wasn’t able to make bets

 

[hashmander]

the british isles are our future with this shyt. and that's not a good thing.

 

[GoldenGlove]

It’s over breh. Sports gambling has a choke hold on everybody no matter race or gender. It’s only gonna get worse too. The money is endless so they can pay anyone to promote it. Be prepared and monitor people close to you cuz I’ve seen some folks really get down bad off sports betting addictions.

My brother just started this shyt. I told him to track his the amount he's spending. He won 2500 on a 20 parlay the first time he played, so I'm already knowing he thinking he invincible. That bet BARELY hit too

 

[LurkMoar]

Everybody and they mama talking about Parlays now, shyt is like the new lottery

Bingo, and it’s crazy cuz parleys are literally the worst bets

Gambling is no worse than any other legal vice, the only difference is it's the one you can come up on if done smart or out of sheer luck. The other vices are pure time/money sinks

The bad part is, he is a casual fan. So when he showed me what he bet, I was like that's going to be hard to get. Had Tobias Harris getting 20+ and this was EARLY in the season before we got to see the Nurse effect really impact him. (October 27th )

He hit on that bet, but he said he had spent like 160 on betting that night. I was like, be careful because imagine spending that much every night on bets. That shyt will add up real quick

 

[AceDeuceTrey]

What’s worse is that in some states (like Cali) you can ONLY do parlays on prop bets. shyt makes zero sense why they prohibit team spreads and single bets but let folks piss their money away on low probability parlays and random chance props.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

I had to stop last year. I was getting in too deep like Mekhi phife. I was on that deviant shyt betting on Filipino basketball over unders shoutout to @Buckeye Fever It’s over for these kids tho they growing up on this shyt and gonna get hooked easy

You just reminded me that I haven't seen any of their games on FanDuel in a good while
