However we control, when we are in a good mood and luck when playing. there's a greater chance we won't be aware of all the controls you mention. I'm sure that's how many gamblers feel, because I feel that too.
even though I limit my betting to a certain amount to keep me from playing deeper when I receive a loss. still, when the mood is good, it will be difficult for me to leave the game and decide to keep betting.
some gamblers may have good control when it comes to big wins. but when the game still doesn't show results, we can only play until our money runs out.

Discipline is indeed important when playing games and betting, let alone gambling, because that way you can make yourself more controlled so you don't get too deep and addicted, but before playing too deep, it's important to convince yourself whether you are ready for the risks you will get, because there are always risks. when betting too deep and gambling seriously.

It's true with your words of advice, that you should just avoid gambling if you don't want to face big risks in gambling, because gambling and betting have risks that must be understood, most gamblers always think that gambling can give you victory and wealth when in fact it's very difficult, gambling just be wise and enjoy the game, don't go overboard because behind it all there is a risk that must be borne even if it's just for entertainment.

Great point, there's always other alternative if you are really have that kind of discipline and you don't want to mess up with your life, especially in terms of finances, gambling at the beginning will be taken as a source of entertainment but if you mismanage your participation most of the time can lead you to addiction that will affect your finances.

Self-discipline might help, but if you are not a fan of taking the risk, it's better to find another way of being entertained and enjoy things
away from any gambling activities.

Anyone that has the level of self discipline you described above will not even gamble at the fist place. Even if we agree that gambling ought to be for fun. A highly principle person will chose to find fun in other things and not in gambling. No matter how discipline anyone is, if they start to gamble and gamble more offen, there is a great tendency that will begin to lose their discipline.
It is at this point that he is supposed to understand that they are going a bit far according to Op. If they don't retrace at this point,  they are heading straight to addiction which is the extreme of it all.

Totally agree on this one since you could eventually point out these basic things which we know that even using up your own common sense would really be that enough for you to be wary about the potential risks and what are the things that should be done for you to not to mess up with gambling activity but yet some people are already still that become devastated by it on which this had been the common cycle in speaking about gambling field. Each person does have their different personality when it comes to various things on which neither they would really be having that good self control and discipline or they would really be just simply tolerating on things
which arent supposed to be tolerated on the first place knowing that it do impose up some risks which it would lead up into huge disaster and ending up on having that huge regret. In overall, gambling isn't really that bad since its been built up because of leisure and entertainment but those casino or gambling site or place owners are really taking up the consideration on making this as an advantage since we know that they do always win at the end. Yes, there might be people who do got rich by gambling but the numbers are really just that less for us to boast on but naturally this had been the main reason on why some or most gamblers do have in mind
on which trying out to hit up a jackpot or huge win for them to satisfy their cravings and interest.

I guess it's good if you can help just one person, but in reality the people who are reading this advice likely already know it and the people who are not reading it are not interesting in seeking it out either. Most gamblers know the basics when it comes to trying to set a budget, but their habit tends to overrule any strict limits that they might have set for themselves. It is important to mention drink and drugs, because that can often lower your inhibitions and take you down a wasteful path when you're throwing lots of money into a casino. When you're talking about physical casinos, just to emphasize the point about how it loosens your wallet up, they'll often give away free drinks to players because they make so much back on the tables.

This is a good move and it pays to give a break from gambling which is one of the ways we can at least regain our possible and get a better strategy while we take a rest and wait for when we regain our strength. Gambling is not meant to be a continual attempt.

 it is very important for us to at least rest and so some other things that will help us to fix ourselves before going back to gambler especially whenever we have a big win. It is not always good for us to go back to gambling immediately whenever we have a big win. We are meant to take a rest and engage in other things that worth our time not always sticking and ready to make a bet.

For me what I do to maintain my gambling budget is that I do not gamble daily I set out Saturday and Sunday as my gambling days, If I failed to win on those days I have to wait for another Saturday and Sunday to gamble again. With this method, I always maintain my gambling budget and also be less addicted to it.

Learning self-discipline and implementing self-discipline are two different things IMO.  It is easier to learn self-discipline but applying it to our activity needs time and effort.  Those who practice it for a very long time have high resilience to gambling addiction while a person new to it can be easily tempted and give in to the temptation and pleasure of gambling.  They will have difficulty moderating their gambling activity until they lose their senses and become a gambling addict.



True that, since many gamblers tend to play to entertain, they put their guard down and play gambling to their heart's content abandoning the fact that gambling should be played moderately.

Honestly I really agree with you, it should be in gambling discipline needs to be done and they should be more focused in paying attention, for example they bet well but they see every round they get is very bad, then they should move to another game and look for some rounds that look better. Most passions will attack us when we are too determined to get a win when the spin itself looks very bad, so utilizing all possibilities will be better even if you still lose in the end. Basically whatever preparations we have prepared beforehand such as self-control, in the end we can still forget all that if we are mentally and psychologically disturbed and will eventually get emotional, most of those who lose a lot of money in gambling are none other than because of too great ambition.
So, well actually it's not too complicated, just do it with a relaxed mind and enjoy it, if indeed you are lucky then victory will definitely come.

Not many gamblers can have good self-discipline because when they start gambling and find pleasure, the average gambler will forget to have or maintain self-discipline. They will forget to stop because they feel that this is the time for them to get win, and this causes them to continue gambling. Tips for self-discipline are always mentioned when playing gambling because that can help us prevent many losses and not become addicted or addicted in the future. And it is true that if someone is an addict, he will do anything to keep gambling.

It does. Different mechanics but the same principle. Because both derives from risks and also does same driven with participant's beliefs and emotion.

On trading, you timed it, you pick a direction going higher or lower. You set your stop loss, your take profit, and you maximum risk. So does when you play poker or slots. You have your own game or strategy. You time when you will participate also. You set how much you are wiling to lose, you set you qouta too for your wins and how much will be your exposure. Almost same is it? Same with the emotion, same deals with greed, fear, because guess what? money is involved.

A good response and indeed to apply self-discipline is not easy as we speak because to apply self-discipline can give rise to a feeling that might make a person become anxious because they have to give up quite a lot of bad habits that have previously been done so easily.
Indeed, sometimes we need to experience big losses or get really bitter experiences so we can think well and not be careless in using money or actions when in the gambling industry.
Many people start trying to apply self-discipline and also always think several times or make considerations for every action so they don't take one wrong step, but in reality it can't last long.

anaging those chips like a boss while some of us are chasing losses. But seriously, your level of self-control? Major envy here

But here's the thing: most folks don't run their lives on Excel sheets. They're just winging it and getting high off those blinking lights and jackpot sounds. For them, it's not about testing self-control; it's the thrill, dude! So, while you've got this gambling game on lock, many are riding the rollercoaster without brakes

For the newbies here, listen to Mr./Ms. Disciplined over there. Use the darn self-exclusion, will ya? If the chips are down (literally and figuratively), get some help. ASAP. Don't wait for the ship to sink

The problem is that self discipline cannot be learned just like that,in theory we all have self discipline but when it comes to applying it most of us are driven by the rage and greed and not the logic which is nearer to self control and self discipline.That is why we have several addicted gamblers nowadays because they have lost this sense and self control nowadays can only be learned the hard way,one should have a really big lose impacting his financial status which will in turn make him think more cold headed and will definitely lead to self discipline in the long time.

You need to have a lot of self-discipline to play gambling games otherwise you are a loser from the start. Otherwise, you'll want more and more, and that's an addiction. When someone is addicted, these tips will not help much, because then the addict will do everything to keep playing.

Why should a casino try to prevent a gambler from gambling excessively because casino are operated to generate profits and if gamblers doesn't gamble how then will the casino run their business,  we're will their liquidity come from and how far can their go when it comes to paying players.

Casinos can place some for of limits and features that allow users to self-exclude themselves from going too much gambling but more also,  it is all about the business and the casino may not pay too much attention to developing what can help the gambler to monitor or control their gambling activities.

I have never seen a casino where they try to prevent a user from excessive gambling with bots. And they will never take such steps. If they take any such initiative they will lose their profit. In view of business they will suffer. If any casino sets such limitations they will lose their clients and those clients will move to other platforms. A gambler has to know about himself and should be taken the right decision. No casino will restrict you for gambling loss.

Yeah, when you are already doing something that is not usual, a good example is when you are selling something or you are loaning to have some money for your gambling, unlike before you are using spare but when you are being push into urgency that you need to keep playing/betting, that's something that needed to address it's showing that addiction may now being develop inside you.

You need to act as quick as possible to avoid getting engaged and to avoid such control inside you. It will create bigger problem if you failed to notice the kind of change in your gambling activities.

Of course, there is no casino that will calculate your limit for you, you are to be responsible enough to know when and why to stop. It's good for gamblers to do this often so that they will be able to test their self-control. There is a need to have your plans and calculations in gambling and be very strict with your periodic budgets. I hardly exhaust mine because I have a lot of profitable engagements, I just go to gamble when I feel bored and it has always been fun. These are my personal doings, plans and calculations and I might not even gamble for a whole week and I will not feel it. But one thing I noticed is that when I give in to gambling more often, I get carried away by it before I start retraining myself.

By this, I don't spend beyond my limit, still, I sense danger for those people that are not strong in mind and plans. My advice to those who are also out of control and could not do it by themselves is to first use the self-exclusion feature if available and get help as soon as possible, not until that red line is finally closed.
