That is how the idea of this topic appeared. I watch others gamble, I watch how the bet, I start to think about betting more than usually. Do you have such feeling also? Do you have a feeling that if others make large bets, that you also must bet large, otherwise you would feel like uncomfortable, or feel like a poor among rich, or something of that kind.

I've done this before and it was really bad.
Why? Because we see a lot of people winning, generally we can only watch or only want to watch the success stories. Of the 1000 people who are playing, we can only see those 10 who are winning, or we purposely ignore the other 9990 who are losing because they are far from our focus of interest.

What is the result of this? When we try to replicate the bets of those winning people, we see that we are hardly part of the 10 successful players we were analyzing, in fact we only increase the amount of the 9990 who usually lose by making the same type of bet.

My advice... observe others, that's good, but also observe the bets of those who lose... also learn from other people's mistakes, not just from victories and after all this, place YOUR BETS based on what you can bet and what you are willing to lose.

Thanks for the comment. I really searched for something like that. I just watch, gather statistics, enjoy my game. Probably marvel their result. I feel sometimes envy when they win big, but when I see they lose big, it is sobering me. Maybe that is why balance is still not zero.

I would say, that I have tried copying others gambling strategies, and it never worked well for me (to those who still think I watch others to try to find a key to always winning).
In the end, in what I have experienced in a case like this, because I have also done it, maybe I think everyone has done this kind of thing by looking at other people's bets and trying it. in the end I sighed and thought that everyone has a difference in terms of profit, the logic in luck inherent in the side of every human being cannot have the same fate or the same end, it must have a difference or even the opposite.

In the end, I also rely more on myself in any gambling decision, both in quantity and strategy or whatever it is, yes, although sometimes I still pay attention to how other people gamble but I prefer to be in my own hands, it is much better than imitating other people's gambling which in fact will not find similarities in our gambling if applied.
