What about you? Do you also often treat others when you get good money from gambling? Or you also think that there are better ways to spend the money you got from gambling?
I don’t see anything bad in giving other people money when you win some good amount of money, you are not giving them so much amount of money that it will end up affecting you. Just a little amount won’t stop you from doing other things with your money, just imagine you win like $100 from gambling. I don’t think anything is bad in giving out $10 to people close to you or people you see at the place where you gambled, there is love in sharing. But I see it as a choice, you might decide to give, and if you're not comfortable with it, then don’t give.

The same for me. There's nothing wrong in giving out some of the winnings but we must always think of our family first before we think about strangers. Will there be enough money for the family if I give a portion of this winnings? Will they even accept the fact that I have given some of it?
It's not wrong as long as it is sincere and you are not stepping on someone else. There are people who don't like being given such things or money because they feel like their ego is being stepped on and so we must be careful about the people we choose to give the "balato".
As a Filipino kid, this was already a thing for me, we play cards and when I win I will give back a part of my winnings to the kids who are cheering for me. It's a traditional thing that already happens even when you are young.

I think I read something here in the gambling discussion where his friend who gambles was told that if he wins the jackpot, he will be rewarded and before his friend's bet runs out, he suddenly won a large amount, and the one who was promised to be rewarded with the win is gone, the promise that was made to give "BALATO" was immediately forgotten,

Anyway, like you said, it's right to immediately put family first if ever you experience a win in gambling before giving cash to other people because you won in casino gambling.
