Yesterday, when I was playing Crash, I have caught myself thinking that I watch on how much people bet, how much they won and lose. First I have felt envy, when I saw one guy bet 200-300 bucks all the time for half and hour and cashed out with 2+ multiplier. Among bets in range of 1 sat to a dollar, he was really standing out. Then I have noticed a guy who was betting a dollar and did not cash out until rocket passes 10x. I was also amazed how a guy bet 1k, and lost it when the rocket banged at 1.00x, then he immediately made another 1k bet and the rocket banged at 1.03x. Then I saw him winning +5k bucks.
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.
Absolutely, it's normal to try to look at other people's bets and maybe see if you could learn a thing or two. Every gambler has their own technique or pattern of gambling that works for them, and if maybe at some point you feel like yours isn't working anymore or at that very moment, you tend to pay attention and observe the next gambler's pattern and then compare which method you feel would be more effective and productive at that moment.
Again the next gambler's story or experience might also serve as either a motivation or a warning bell for you so yeah it's clearly normal to wanna pay attention to the betting details of other gamblers.
