Why gambling with friends is so much better

Why gambling with friends is so much better

The ultimate guide to gambling with friends 

When people think of gambling, most people think of solo gambling. They don’t even consider that group betting could be an option for them. 

They picture James Bond alone at the poker table. But where would Bond have been without all those bad guys to play against? 

If you have a group of friends that love the same casino games as you do, then why not consider gambling together. Here are 6 reasons why you will have a better time if you do. 

You can make an evening of it 

A night in with your best friends playing Poker is in our humble opinion, far more fun than hitting the town. But nothing beats a night out together in the casino. 

Well, we thought that until we discovered online casinos and gambling at home. A night in with the lads playing Poker online combines the best of both worlds. 

When you don’t have to pay $10 for a beer and you can bring your own snacks, you end up with a lot more money to gamble with. 

So, really make a night of it. Have everyone bring their best snacks, favorite drinks, and you could even dress up like you would if you were hitting the casino. 

You can spend time with long-distance friends 

Gambling with your friends from home is also a great way to spend time with friends that live a long way away. 

Thanks to the wonders of the internet, you can now set up a table at an online casino to play against both your friends and strangers. 

If you have long-distance friends who you want to spend some more time with, why not give them a call and invite them to join you at one of these tables. This system works just as well as playing with friends who are in the same room as you. 

You Can Pool Knowledge 

One of the keys to consistently winning bets is to understand the subject you are betting on. 

You have heard the saying 2 heads are better than 1. But what about 7 heads who all love playing poker week in and week out. 

As a group, you can share your knowledge, improving your odds of winning a jackpot.  

When You Win, You Win Together 

If you gamble on a site like https://www.stardustcasino.com/ as a group, you’ll be having fun together. And in a way, you’re all winners. 

If you’re looking for actual winnings (rather than just friendship and happy memories)  then you may want to consider putting together a group budget to bet with. At the end of the night, you can split the winnings equally. If you work as a team and play to your individual strengths then you can all walk away with some cash. 

If you win, you win together. 

Friendly Competition Makes Everything More Exciting  

If you’re not the type of friendship group that goes all in for group activities then we may have another way to make a night of online gambling more exciting. 

Have a friendly competition to see who can earn the most in one night. Everybody starts with the same amount of money – $100 for example – and they have 2 hours to turn it into something more. 

Do you play it safe knowing that most of your friends will have lost their $100 within the first half an hour of playing, or do you risk it and try and win big? 

Either way, it will be one unforgettable night.  

If things go wrong you have a support network to keep you accountable 

We don’t win every hand we play. Every bet we place doesn’t come through for us. Sometimes losing repeatedly sucks us into a nasty cycle of chasing losses. 

When you’re gambling with your friends – whether they live near you or far away –  you will be surrounded by people who can support you when you’re doing well and when you’re doing badly. 

The people closest to you are often able to spot when you’re making a mistake, even when you can’t tell. By betting with your friends you can keep yourself from making any bad decisions.
