it's a normal thing with most gamblers to share prediction with themselves and some will believe certain predictions to the extent that they might even decide to give you some money to make the stake if you are not with one. Most sports gamblers bond like one happy family because of the normal gambling shops that brings them together and so it's normal to ask for help when they don't have money to gamble at the moment.

Generally, it's not a good practice to gamble to a point were you have to beg others for money to aid you in your gambling but let's say the person has no choice than getting the help from me, I won't hesitate to give him/her. Have I ever given anyone money for gambling? Not one I can remember. Has anyone ever asked me money to be used for gambling? Yeah, but he was a reckless gambler and I didn't even take him seriously so I refused him.
