Sport betting have really changed the lives  of many individual and have also leed most people to poverty in Nigeria am a victim also at first you will be benefiting from it thinking that you will be winning every Day.
Am advising any one who is involved into sport betting to avoid it now it's not good for you please

This is the mentality we keep having as Nigerians. You mentioned that at first you will be winning the game frequently, but it will not be for every day. So if I may ask, is there any form of gambling that has a full assurance that you will be winning frequently? The answer is no. Because in any fit of gambling the first priority is losing game, that is, whether you stop sport betting or not, in as far as you are betting of gambling you most have to lose. That is just the fact, so in some cases I will say that you created this thread as a result of losing gambling. That is why you are just wise not to see anyone as a victim of the loss you made.

People that do not have fun while gambling are people that are losing more

Well, in my humble opinion, it is the exact opposite. The thrill and fun (adrenaline rush) will keep demanding more money to gamble in order to feel good, which eventually leads to financial losses because of the negative expected value nature of all casino games. On the other hand, people who are not used to adrenaline spikes can more easily cope with gambling-related problems.

Did you know that adrenaline is a hormone that is responsible for immune balance, regulating blood pressure, response to stress, and other functions? If you are talking of boosting your happiness or having fun, then you are talking of dopamine, not adrenaline, so the hormone that is released to feel good and reduce stress is known as dopamine, which can trigger peace of mind, sleep,and a sense of pleasure.
