When there are opportunities for rewarding labour-engagement, some ventures such as:betting, comedian, OAP, social media skills, MCs, ritual killing, terrorism etc; will naturally fade away.
The listing is not intended to give bad colours to some ventures, but like I said, "if it is rewarding and engaging for massive production-purposes; some persons will naturally not opt for the aforementioned ventures.

Depends on your approach and purpose, if you gamble you lose, but if you trade you make some profit.
If you follow a particular site whose daily game is about 1.4 or 1.5 odds and you're able to adopt a disciplined system for a month and you win at least 21or 22 games, you will have some profit.
For example adopting a 1 day roll over of 1.4 x1.4 will give you 1.96.
If you are able to stake 10k ,the next day if goes according to plan you profit 9.6k.
withdraw your profit and plug back the 10k.
if you achieve like 9 0r 10 successful roll overs in a month, you have made some profit.
Consistency and discipline minus greed is key.

cheesy

I used to do this from 2015-2019 during the days of 1960bet with colored slips after my first two accidental wins, and i became very serious with it in 2019


In 2019, I played only 1XBet and since i used to think I'm smarter that the rest, I usually analyze my games with the aid of some bet analytics like Windrawin, soccervista, Afootballreport and Statsarea yet nothing show


I finally stopped the day i used this 1xbet option 'Player not to score a hattrick" on Bernardo Silva and the game was Man City vs Watford.

City flogged them 8-0 or so and Silva netted a hattrick. Funny thing is, that was his only ever hattrick for Man City till date

Its a curse abeg. Stopped since 2019
These people you mentioned are working for the bet companies, just to misled you guys..

Bet is a game. Except youโ€™re just lucky, you can never win them!

People wey created betting, the sole reason why they created is to win and make money, not for the bet players to win!

I haven't done it before and I don't pray to indulge in it, don't like it from day1.



While growing up I saw how pool or whatever they called it then destroyed the life of a family friend. The man was a welder and all the boys he trained are big boys now but he's still in that shop welding tripod stand and other petty stuffs till today.

Maybe he was hoping he would win millions someday which never happened.

Betting is not for everybody. It's a big blessing to people that do their own research.

About 60 million Nigerians between 18 and 40 years of age may be spending up to N1.8 billion on sports betting daily, a recent investigation by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) revealed.
The figures are staggering

If it's not a curse how can a university graduate be praying for AC Milan to score at least one goal

It Is a weapon designed to destroy our youths and take them to sorry level in the nearest future, this is what happens when people are impoverished

Really you donโ€™t think, or probably you donโ€™t have the brain capacity to. If the teeming Nigerian youths are gainfully employed, who would play sport betting. The right question you should be asking is-

Are politicians in Nigeria a curse or blessing?

Governance in Nigeria have failed and collapsed and thereby pushing millions of people into different ways of catering for themselves.

It's both
Sometimes betting just saves you when out of the blues your last money staked, gives you nice profits

Other times, it wrecks you to your kneels that you curse the day you ever started such habit.

If you can quit it, quit it
