Yes, having a limit in gambling will helps you to prevents the losses so you don't have to spends much money to playing gambling. You will know when you must stop playing gambling, especially if your money is almost runs out and you will not force yourself to continue playing gambling. You will not deposits more money to continue playing gambling because that means can makes you lose more money. You will stick to your rules and not playing gambling excessively because that can makes you forget about your rules and that means your losses will becomes bigger.

When we can stick to our rules, we will prevents the lose and not trying to playing longer than before because we can loses more money. We will not trying to breaks the rules because we really care with ourselves and considers that gambling is just for fun and not have to be too serious in playing gambling.

If you ask me for money for something reasonable, if am having then I will give, but if you ask me for money to gamble, then I will never give. It doesn’t make sense to me, if you don’t have money to gamble, then don’t gobble, you shouldn’t go to the length of asking people to give you money to gamble, it doesn’t make any sense to me. When you don’t have money to gamble, then stay away from gambling.

Sure I have the amount of money which I gamble with weekly, immediately I exceed my limit, then I will have to stop gambling for that particular week. If you don’t discipline yourself when gambling, then you will end up turning to an addicted gambler without you even knowing.

Na matter how rich I am, I will keep on gambling, because gambling is not either for the rich or poor, and am not the type that gamble just for the sake of money, I gamble for fun, so even when am rich, I will keep on gambling whenever am bored and I want to feel relaxed.

👉 how do you view women gambling in your area:
I felt like people that are questioning about women into gambling aren't exposed in the modern world. What is the difference between a man and a woman betting anyways?

👉how do you view notorious gamblers:
We need to gamble responsibly. I have seen people gambling with huge amounts. We do not know them personally. They're rich people so I assume they are successful in their own careers. What we consider as big amounts are small to them.

👉how do you really feel when you lose money on gambling?  Do you feel bad or just lie to yourself that's it was for fun?
Lying to yourself is an act of immaturity or ignorance. Don't bet if you're just lying to yourself.

👉how do you spend your gambling wins:
It depends. Most likely around half of them remains in my betting portfolio. I usually do not have any cravings so the winnings could be spend to anything or just leave it in my wallet.

👉how do you feel when peopel ask you for money to gamble?, do you gamble with debt?  Or would you never indulge in such no matter how sure you are about the game ?
I now assume that OP knows little about betting. There is no such thing as 100% sure in betting. And it is basic understanding not to borrow money with interest in order to bet.

👉Do you set rules or limits on how much you stake per week to control your addiction or you are disciplinedenough to know when to stop?
A responsible gambler has a rule even before starting to bet.

👉behind the mask of loving to gamble if you get rich would you still gamble or never again?
I did not even think of becoming rich because of betting. I bet on the sports, teams and players that I am following so becoming rich is not a factor.

If you get rich and then stop gambling did you ever really love the game you were playing, if you do stop thats kind of sad because you are now with less in life after somehow having more that seems negative.   Play for the game always the money should be secondary and if you dont love the game dont continue because this situation really doesnt deserve a win its against the grain to hope you would gain from something you dont even enjoy.

Its a fair argument you could be so rich and busy with other things you no longer could have the effort left to enjoy gambling.  All or nothing kind of approach but I wouldn't stay away completely.    I can believe some people find no special buzz from gambling anything then large amounts but personally I dont need to risk need financial death to get a thrill from it, the win alone is what I like and the rest confirms the win.

This is a common case in many aspects of life, especially the activities that need to spend money. The lower prevalence of women in gambling is caused by societal norms and expectations that play a significant role in shaping behaviors and attitudes towards certain activities. Gambling has been perceived as a male activity, and cultural stigmas may discourage women from participating in gambling to the same extent as men. This societal pressure can indeed influence women to prioritize other interests and activities over gambling.

Women often bear greater responsibilities in caregiving roles, such as raising children or managing household finances. This may leave them with less time and disposable income for recreational activities like gambling. Women may approach money and risk differently than men due to societal conditioning or personal preferences. Women may be more inclined to view money as a resource to be managed carefully and invested in necessities rather than as a source of entertainment through gambling.

It is certain that there are fewer women who play gambling, there are women who gamble, and of course there are also addicted women to gambling, but the thingare women who gamble, and of course there are also addicted women to gambling, but the thing is, compared to the men, there are just a few. We don't know why, but I guess it's because women have more priorities and interests than men, and they are more careful and treat money as their valuables that they can't afford to lose, compared to men who like to play, so they automatically get hooked on gambling games because it has an added thrill, which is staking money. And based on norms, seeing a woman who gambles is a shame or not acceptable in most countries, which is not good in the sense that the views of female and male are still not the same. Anyway, it's more good that there are fewer women who gamble because it means not all people can be addicted and waste their money on gambling.

If we lose a lot in the casino the best thing to do is to buy, not do things just to do them or because we play with a lot of money we have to win, that doesn't work like that, we do lose a lot of money to avoid the pain, the sadness, maybe the stress and pressure of not having that money already available to us, what is recommended is not to play with so much money and avoid playing too much in a casino, playing all day in a casino is not good, playing in a casino should be done once a week or maximum two, but a month it would represent at least 6 times and that is enough.

In addition, we must know how to play, we don't have to go crazy and be very careful with our money, because it is very easy to spend it but it is very difficult to get it back, those are the things that we must see to avoid going through bad experiences among those losing money.

I never spend my money on gambling. This means I never go all out all my cash to win a bet. I only use a few pennies to gamble and of course it's just for fun. Those who lie to themselves by saying that it is just money for fun are those who use most of their income to gamble. That is a mistake made by irresponsible gamblers.

That's why I never spend my winnings on something like buying branded clothes or my favorite shoes. Because I really didn't win a few thousand dollars from gambling.

I play online, so I do not see women or men when gambling, I see usernames and that means I do not know if that person is a woman or a man, and to be fair I have never cared about it, it is just not the part that I care about.

Big famous gamblers are fun to follow, they are actually quite entertaining because they are gambling with amounts that I would never be able to do, so that makes it fun, like I do a proxy gambling via them and have fun with their money when watching them. I do not get upset too much of course but it is at least fun and I get to end up being a lot better with it over time. These are some personal questions that's true, but I do not really get the results of it, like what does OP get when they learn the answers?

Friends who gamble together will not see anything wrong in sharing predictions. It is common for me and my friends to share predictions. We believe that gambling especially sports betting isn't something that should be predicted by only one person. Individuals view games differently and so when friends come together to analyze and exchange predictions, it brings them closer to winning because factors capable of influencing the games can be unraveled by one of the friends in the course of analysis.

I can remember vividly when during prediction, a friend gave a reason why a particular game would not produce the outcome we intended and so we considered the reasons he gave and avoided the game completely to avoid regret. Luckily, the game we played won and the game we removed would have spoilt the ticket.

it's a normal thing with most gamblers to share prediction with themselves and some will believe certain predictions to the extent that they might even decide to give you some money to make the stake if you are not with one. Most sports gamblers bond like one happy family because of the normal gambling shops that brings them together and so it's normal to ask for help when they don't have money to gamble at the moment.

Generally, it's not a good practice to gamble to a point were you have to beg others for money to aid you in your gambling but let's say the person has no choice than getting the help from me, I won't hesitate to give him/her. Have I ever given anyone money for gambling? Not one I can remember. Has anyone ever asked me money to be used for gambling? Yeah, but he was a reckless gambler and I didn't even take him seriously so I refused him.

You shouldn't be feeling this way at all, this is revealing how much you are reckless with your gambling activities, like I used to tell my friends, if you are feeling hurt after gambling you are using too much to take risks on gambling and you need to check yourself.

Forget about what you plan to make from gambling, it's all about what happens to you after losing some money, you should feel nothing and also be able to enjoy your gambling activities.

People tend to take higher risks that's why they feel bad when they lose money, even if it hurt to lose a dollar, it means that you can't afford to lose that dollar, take the amount down to half a dollar or even lower.

Casino is a place where anyone who is above certain age allowed to gamble but the nature of gender in the wider scale have their own preferences that lead to lack of their activity on other field but as always there are always exceptions and that's how we find few women in casinos. I haven't witnessed them in public casinos but here women even own casinos too so gender doesn't decide what we can and can't do, our preference does.

Well, I've seen quite a lot in all different types of gambling, and no they are not pretenders they are actually there for the game and the pot money. The only worst thing that I've seen is when a woman ran out of resources that she won't be able to continue betting, she's gonna bargain her body in exchange for some cash. That is actually a quite popular scenario in movie scenes, but it is happening in real life.

Irresponsible? Obviously yes. Pity them because they are just a victim in gambling addiction? Maybe a little, since upon entering the gambling world, we are all well aware of such possibility to happen, so that made us a willing victim. Can't do much about it though, it's their life, their rules, and their sufferings as well.

I don't know if I'm lying to myself sometimes when I feel like "it's fine that's how gambling works, I lose today, I might win back tomorrow", so these lines and thoughts made me feel at ease even after a lose. However, most of the time when I lose I feel bad and frustrated. I think that's just a normal reaction for a person who lost.
I'm not a materialistic person so I usually spend it with foods and drinks. Foods for my fam and beverages or liquor for office mates and friends.

You are talking about two different types of gamblers here where the first are those addicts who always overdo their gambling activities such as by putting a budget amount that they are not able to account for which ultimately makes them end the session with various frustrations and regrets, but it is a fact that it keeps repeating or meaning they always repeat the same mistakes which ultimately experience the same situation of regret for the umpteenth time, and the second type of gamblers are those who treat their gambling activities reasonably or in terms of moderation and no excessive actions where they come with the intention only to seek entertainment in the middle of boring leisure time so obviously their main priority is to fill the time with pleasure and as you said that they consider that losing is a natural part or a natural thing that happens in gambling.

From the two types of gamblers above, it is clear that we can see and conclude that the second type is those who have a correct understanding of what gambling activities actually are, one of the reasons is because there is absolutely no certainty that can guarantee you to always win in gambling and if you overdo it then obviously you will only experience many bad things such as losing a lot of money, and this is why the goal of entertainment is more recommended in gambling than earning because gambling is not a place to solve financial problems or not a place to make you rich instantly.

In the case that you mentioned above about the scenario of dealing with losing situations when you gamble with other people or friends I think you are right here, which is that togetherness can indeed reduce the disappointment of losing a little, the reason I think it is because the situation of togetherness indirectly makes the situation and circumstances exciting so that maybe they are not too fixated on the loss they experience, this is possible regardless of whether you are a responsible gambler or not.

There are multiple means of dealing with it, and seeing a woman who gambles doesn't make many differences. Reaching out to them is fine, but not all the time, as the woman could be there with a spouse. So, may not need much attention from you. Although your contribution to the game is quite needed going for some answers to questions regarding her habit, will return void. However, it's not unusual to find a woman that spends her time gambling. Even before the introduction of online casinos, women gambled in casinos. I developed the habit of asking women if they gamble, when on a conversation with them. It helps me chime in my view and get a quality answer from the lady.

The casino is not a better place to hold such a discussion. You may be surprised to know that a female friend you've been in touch with is a gambler or close to becoming one. When I see a woman in a casino and want to discuss, it'll be based on the game and what she should wager. The gambling niche has been open for all genders to participate. Unless in some regions where women think they shouldn't gamble due to their beliefs. However, the government doesn't have any rules against women for gambling. Hence in your context, while moving ahead to attract her attention, be prepared to offer her a winning decision one that'll yield her money. That's if you are prepared to pull her attention towards you.

There are varying perspectives for people have regarding gambling and their reactions to losses. People who feel sad because of wagering more than they can afford to lose. This can lead to feelings of regret, frustration, and even guilt, particularly if the loss has significant financial implications. There are other people who focus more on the enjoyment of the experience rather than the financial outcome. For these people, the entertainment value of gambling may outweigh the negative emotions associated with losing money. They may view losses as a natural part of the gambling experience.

The social aspect of gambling, such as betting with friends or enjoying the excitement of watching sports events, can also influence the perception of losses. In these cases, the camaraderie and shared experience may mitigate the disappointment of losing money. Regardless of people attitudes toward winning or losing, the key to responsible gambling lies in maintaining control over their impulses and behaviors.

It's a very interesting thread, because the truth is that in my area there are always women who go and play, but they usually go at certain hours, most of the time they go around 6-7pm and that I know surprises me because Basically They do it when they leave work or at that time they are unoccupied, but I am surprised that they go to the casino and do not last more than 1 hour, it is as if they were against the clock all the time and when they do, they always play the same games , they do not vary, at least that is the only thing I have seen in the 2e go to the physical casino where I sometimes play.

On the other hand, in those places they are free, they don't Interact with anyone and they play very punctually, I don't see them sad or making faces that cost them a lot of money, I think they are very careful with money, and that's something that shows.

Regarding what you say that there are women who are more in the whtas app or in any social network, it is something natural, the majority of us who are in this casinos are men and many of them dedicate themselves to looking for these women to try to conquer them and that is something that Sometimes they don't like it, on online platforms you rarely know which woman is, and even so I don't care, I think they have the right to play whatever they want.

It's unusual for women to gamble and stand in shops because I don't usually see that in this area, so maybe if a woman gambled in a physical shop then it would be considered bad but there are no traditional casino shops so I've never seen it.

Looking at the most famous gamblers, just looking at the Internet with millions of dollars of bets like Drake and other streamers spend the game with a lot of money.

Losing money in gambling would be upsetting... But again, this is just fun, of course, losing should be considered normal in gambling, not too deep in resentment or emotion.

Will not spend the winnings in gambling again, I might buy things that I like or invest again if it is a large amount of winnings.

Will not ask for money to gamble.
Will not borrow money to gamble.
Do not care even if the game in the match will win.
If I do not have money, I will not gamble.

Nothing unusual with that. Women are no different than men on this matter. They are citizens with the same rights and duties, therefore gambling will be disponible for them, just like it's for men.

I see them as lucky individuals who belong to the slight percentage of total gamblers who achieved profit and a career through this activity, or as charlatans who built fake reputations by using their influence to lie to people about their personal experiences with gambling and to deceive people on what they can expect from gambling. It really depends on each notorious gambler, individually.

I felt bad when treating gambling as investment, because that way I put a burden over my shoulders that I must have made profit from it in order to hit determined financial results. As consequence, I didn't, so I felt really sad about it, but at same time I learned I shouldn't gamble with that purpose in mind anymore, neither chase losses, because it would in fact bring me further losses. If you want to play, do this for fun, or don't do it at all...

If you are able to profit from gambling at some point, a good idea is to invest the profit in order to generate more money in a relatively safe way, without involving the random risks gambling exposes us to. Don't spend all your money with clothes, accessories, dinners, fancy items, because you won't have an income to maintain your luxurious lifestyle later, anyway.

I don't lend money to gamblers. I don't borrow money to gamble. Doesn't matter how secure I'm regards a match result, I would never take a loan in order to place a bet on it.

Limits are a must for every gamblers. That is the most essential rule of gambling: just risk money you can afford to lose. If you don't follow this basic guideline, you are busted.

Yes, especially because gambling is an activity mainly for rich people, since they are the ones who can afford to lose money.
