Also, never try to recover losses immediately because that\u2019s when people lose even more money,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>He recalls one evening in April when he attempted to recover Sh800 in losses but ended up losing more than Sh2,000 before the night ended.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the money, he says betting has also strengthened friendships among his social circle.<\/p>\n<p>Together with six friends, they created a WhatsApp group where they discuss matches, share predictions, and joke about failed bets.<\/p>\n<p>The group, he says, has made football more interactive even when members are watching games from different parts of Nairobi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomeone might notice a player injury or a weak goalkeeper and immediately alert the group. It makes everyone pay closer attention to the game,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid financial problems, he says he limits himself to Sh3,000 per month for betting.<\/p>\n<p>Once the money is finished, he continues watching football without placing any bets.<\/p>\n<p>While some months bring profits, others end in losses, something he says bettors must accept.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not saying betting will make anyone rich. People should only do it for entertainment and never use money meant for rent or important needs,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The rise of mobile betting platforms in Kenya has continued to attract many young sports fans, especially those looking for new ways to engage with football and other sporting events.<\/p>\n<p>However, experts continue to warn against irresponsible gambling and encourage moderation and financial discipline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya May 22 &#8211; A growing number of young people in Nairobi are turning sports betting into part of their daily entertainment routine, with many saying it has changed how they watch football and interact with friends.
