This is just many of the unreported and undocumented deaths that are related to gambling. Don't be a daredevil with such bet because you'll never know if there are some bad plans by the person that teases you to bet or some accidents are about to come near. It's not worth it.
Its really time for parent to step up. Online gambling now is so accessible to anyone.
Those kids that are into online gambling. they are hard to control because how secretive they are whenever they are asked. So, for everyone that gets the idea of how these bets from the example of op coming to the kids and teens that are gambling secretly. I agree that parents need to step up and always remind them with all their might not to engage into such activities.
