Best form of advice is to quite when you are going too much on a roll, this is because, most at times players think that the ability to chase losses gives Them a chance to recover not knowing that the more you chase after a loss the more you tend to lose more, this is a fundamental truth about gambling losses.

Motivate yourself when you think things aren't going well with you again in gambling, try to pause a little to cross-check and do an overall assessment on yourself on recent success you might have been through while gambling, opportunities you have missed and weigh them to each other, take a review on your lifestyle entirely, try to define your category of gamblers and reposition yourself to the best way expected for a positive results, gambling is not to frustrate but rather to have and create fun through it.

There have been many examples when a gambler has no limits when playing gambling to become bankrupt, and that is a lesson for us to always remember that we must apply good management of our finances while playing. I am also a bit of a gambler in that I only play with money that I am prepared to lose. I'm thankful I can suppress my urges when I want to gamble but I don't have extra money to play with. The reason is if I force myself to play it will disrupt my financial flow in the end. So I do my best to control myself when I don't have money to play with.

It's good if we know that gambling is just fun and we don't have to pursue that pleasure to the point of spending a lot of money. And when we realize that we are only playing with money, we are ready to lose and will not chase to win because we know it is not easy to get. And I agree that we must have good self-control to avoid being tempted by the many casino games. We must limit ourselves to gambling so that we are not affected by gambling where we can experience gambling addiction.

From most of the people I ask, especially in my environment, they have a foundation of understanding about gambling is only limited to pleasure, they understand the gambling budget restrictions and when I ask whether you really do the principle completely or not, and 9 people out of 10 people What I asked about it was very difficult to control when their gambling game almost got a victory at the end of the balance they had, it made a gambler have more ambitions and destroyed the principle he had built before, self -control was very important as a gambler because of that Having a function to suppress unreasonable ambitions that can kill themselves when in gambling, health/logic awareness is needed to hold fast to its principle.

Gambling should indeed be considered as a form of entertainment rather than an investment strategy. It's akin to paying for a movie ticket; you pay for the thrill and experience, and not because you expect a financial return. Your mention of self-control is crucial. It's like the anchor that keeps a ship from drifting in the tempest of emotions that gambling can stir.

However, there's an inherent psychological aspect at play in gambling which you've pointed out: the near-miss effect. This phenomenon can lead to distorted thinking where a gambler might start to believe they're getting closer to winning, causing them to bet more aggressively. This is where responsible gambling measures, like setting loss limits, can be crucial.

Let me draw upon the Martingale strategy, a well-known betting system used in games of chance. It suggests doubling your bet after every loss, which sounds appealing because it seems that a win would recover all previous losses. But this could also lead to exponential growth in betting amounts, making it risky and potentially catastrophic in a long losing streak.

Well, in gambling, the more one gambles, the more the person has a desire to play more, with the thought that every time you fail to gamble again, it is the right opportunity to gamble and win. It goes on and on in the person's mind, and it's left for the person to decide within himself or herself if to stop or not because they are losing so hard. It can be very easy to chase losses because when you want to stop, you will have that inner voice say to you, "Don't leave now; you might win this next round; try this last time." It only takes one who is so self-disciplined and exercises self-control to make the decision to stop when winning seems so tough.

But it's very hard to do if you're gambling alone. After all, in this case, it always seems that you are about to get rid of. And victory awaits around the corner - but no, and another loss comes.
Therefore, in such cases, I advise you to be in touch with family or friends. Any situation is always better seen from the outside, and they will always say if there were enough losses for today.

If there is no opportunity to be not alone, then it is better to know your maximum loss level for today in advance.

Quiting is almost an Impossible task, most especially for somebody who have become addicted to the game, and also have mastered the act of chasing after loses..

But then, for those who are not addicts, the act of gambling and going too much in a roll is already a sign of addiction, such will definitely need the help of maybe family or friends to come out from The addiction immediately or else. It could get really messy.

I totally agree with what you said that gambling is just fun that should be done without spending too much money and avoiding chasing defeats.
Actually it's quite easy to gamble responsibly, but people think too much of gambling as a place to multiply money and always expect to win.
Even though this gambling is like a game where there are always wins and loses without having to win continuously, gamblers ignore this problem.

It's actually not easy to gamble responsibly, and only those who gamble responsibly themselves can say such a thing. It is just like if there is a pro gamer who always wins in any game, he says that it is easy to win while all other gamers who are average will never feel the same way because it is not easy for them and it is looking easy for the pro gamer because he knows how things are done better.

So for most gamblers, it is not easy to gamble responsibly and they forget everything once they start losing except the thought that they have to get back what they've lost and with that thought, they lose even more. Hence, it is not easy to gamble responsibly.

Intentions play an important role, but we are humans and we need stuff to makes us think twice when these intentions are being obfuscated by our own "humanity". Recognizing and acknowledging these tendencies is an essential step in practicing responsible gambling and it is in our hands to use the best resources and share them with others here.

I guess you are right, intention is a big factor when starting yourself in participating in this kind of activities, the way you handle that intention will reflect in every action that you are taking, if you can continue limiting or focusing yourself without exceeding from that intention then sharing the best practice will be usable.

This information on how to completely limit yourself with that intention can be used as a basis and for sure, many people will benefit as
it can prevent addictions if being practice in the right ways.

It's pretty difficult to teach addicts what's the right way to use such information that can help them, most of the time, they don't even consider themselves to be in a problem and they think they are just gambling and having fun which is basically just an initial display of how gambling addiction begins without the addict noticing how deep they've fallen in this will.

The intention of a gambler in general is to win a lot of money, and in pursuit of that, they become addicted, and instead of winning anything, they gamble away everything they ever had in their lives without even regretting it.

Maybe some are realizing things after suffering with huge losses, but I see your point that there are people or gamblers who can accept the defeats and consider that they are just enjoying and they will continue to proceed in pursuing the chance of hitting the jackpot or making huge amount in winning the games that they are playing.

Those are things that also needed to consider, gambler who are still in the denial stage will go deeper and engage more with gambling.

Without the acceptance and self-will expect them to lose more and more until they already emptied their financial savings.

Silence, which means leaving the casino in person or offline, is the best way to quit the game, aka taking a break or taking a break so as not to continue playing and spend all the remaining money. most people will continue to play the game because they are still in the casino, so they will continue to be tempted to try again to chase their previous losses.

I often do this silently and don't talk much when I lose and then leave the online casino and then do other activities so I don't have a feeling of desire to continue the previous gambling game because I experienced defeat. but really don't ever try to continue the game if you feel you have lost a lot because it will continue to drain our money until it runs out. Cheesy

Sorry, buddy, but it's not that easy to do because when you experience defeat and leave the gambling site, someone will keep thinking about their defeat and can't feel any information at all, even when they want to rest to sleep, it's difficult because in their minds there is only a certain amount of money lost because of losing and then there will be a desire to return to playing and get some money so that the defeat can recover a little.
I can speak like this because of my own personal experience when I was unlucky and suffered a big loss.

If you can do that, that's a good thing because not all gamblers are able to do this, even I myself, who has had a lot of bitter experience in gambling, sometimes it's always difficult to do that.

This is just the basics, but anyone should be aware of it:

Budget: set it BEFORE you start gambling and stick to it.
Have a break from time to time, it is important to let your brain stop and consider.
Avoid drugs / drink as much as possible, they will make you loose some control innevitably.
Seek help if you feel you are no longer in control. Make a phone call to a friend or go out and speak with someone.

Anything else anyone can think of? Like... read this post before gambling? Tongue

It’s always not as easy as you just said it but I’ll add these 3 (even if it may not work)

1) have a hustle that gives you money outside gambling, most gambling addicts are people who literally depend on it to earn a living, so they gamble like their lives depend on it

2) Don’t gamble every game you see, some people plays every bet that comes their way, relying on hope/faith to make it boom, making them spend extravagantly on gambling

3) Work on your mind, if 3k is your budget for gambling, do not exceed it for any reason, with that, you’ll have a minimal expense on gambling

Most gamblers already know about this philosophy but fail when implementing it because gambling is often out of control.
Players have a budget but often fail to comply with it, especially when the usual casino where he plays is giving tempting promotions even though at that time he has exceeded the budget.
Players often feel the need to quit but losing or even being in a winning position gets in the way because thinking it's not the right time to quit until eventually running out of money is what forces them to quit.
Drugs or drinks are only carried out by heavyweight gamblers and maybe even they are addicts, be they gambling addicts on drugs or liquor.
Not many players dare to admit that they are not doing well because of gambling, maybe because they don't like being advised or being blamed.
There are many things that other people can think about including considering gambling as a way of multiplying money or as a way of earning, anyway thanks for advice.

We are only humans and we can't resist things especially it is entertaining and can provide us additional source of income. There is nothing wrong to play gambling but what is only wrong is if you can not stop playing it that it already interferes your life. The stuffs that you mean there must be a distraction to prevent us from playing gambling. There are lots of them. The most common that people on my age group use is online games (video games) like dota 2.

For some it can be watching a movie. It's also a good idea to be productive like find a job which earns you money or plant a crop in your background. This should help us to stay away from gambling. If we have problems with it.

We arent perfect but doesnt mean that we should really play dumb and tolerate things on which we know that it could really put us up on harm. Every aspects in life does really really need up that good decision
making because we know that once we do miss out on doing that then for sure it would bring out unfortunate ones specially if we do deal up with gambling or betting which it is really just the same.
Just like on what most people been saying that gambling is for fun only, it is really just that people are really that hoping that much about gambling could make them rich or someone who
do really get addicted and doesnt mind already on the money that they are spending which is already beyond their limits which it is something that should really be stopped midway or before its too late.
People do usually learn when they had already experienced those unfortunate stuffs.

Many people really go too far when it comes to betting or gambling because they are greedy, and they let their emotions slide, whether they are continuously losing or winning. So my advice when you are going a bit far in gambling is to learn to be contented with your losses and winnings and learn to control your emotions, which means you shouldn't make sudden actions just because you feel lucky or you are going to win a round. Sometimes it's okay to let all your losses disappear in gambling because it helps you learn that not everybody will go home with their winnings, and this will help you to be satisfied or be contented with your losses or winnings.

Yeah right, but for sure it's easy to say than to make in action, just like what you said due to greediness and the emotions that controls your mindset during your gambling sessions, it's a hard battle with you that needed to control, if you manage to beat your own lust then you are good to go, as you can tell yourself that you are quitting for a while to rest and to refresh yourself either you are winning or losing with your gambling participations.

I totally agree with what you said that gambling is just fun that should be done without spending too much money and avoiding chasing defeats.
Actually it's quite easy to gamble responsibly, but people think too much of gambling as a place to multiply money and always expect to win.
Even though this gambling is like a game where there are always wins and loses without having to win continuously, gamblers ignore this problem.

When we can win several times at gambling at different times, our minds will automatically think that this is a good profit that we can get, so we will think about continuing to gamble. But unfortunately, it makes us lose and the amount this time will be bigger than our previous victory. We must be aware of this so that it does not happen to us and must prevent it before we experience it ourselves. So gambling can only be fun for us without being a way to make money.

Quote from: Wiwo on May 21, 2023, 06:26:24 PM

Will the gambler ever accept the fact that gambling is for fun, I don't think the number of gamblers that have that line of thought is much and we must know how to set the priorities right and by doing so we must learn how to control the phr emotion and never to go above our boundaries.

Setting a timer could help, but having self-control helps more since that will have psychological effects on your mindset other than a timer.

Whether they accept it or continue gambling for fun and money is up to them. We must control ourselves and not indulge in our desires to continue gambling because that will harm us. We will lose money and become addicted to gambling after playing gambling for a while.

Yes, I agree that self-control can help from all the bad possibilities of gambling. And even though it seems difficult, we must convince ourselves that we can do it.

If you are really starting to get addicted, timers can help, but without self-control, it is still a problem as you continue to gamble, and that is really a huge problem as it is difficult to practice it. That is why others tend to find some hobby as well as keep themselves busy so that they don't have free time and can't think to gamble. But again, if the person has already gotten addicted, there is no way that you can stop him unless you seek professional help to make the gambler go to rehab.

I agree to manage time and keep myself busy so that don't have thoughts of gambling and can forget about gambling in order to prevent over-addiction.
But to find a professional and go to rehab I'm not sure I can succeed because so far there is no rehabilitation for a gambling addict moreover it all depends on one's own will if an addict really intends to stop he can forget about gambling and never come back but if a gambler has the desire to quit gambling but his heart and mind are still heavy to leave gambling so it is difficult for someone to recover from gambling addiction.
So far, there is no effective way to overcome gambling addiction except on your own volition.

Make no mistake, even a gambler who doesn't have the desire to stop gambling if his family cares and takes him to a psychologist, I'm sure he will get well soon and have the desire to stop gambling.
If understood in real terms, it turns out that gambling addiction is very dangerous and can damage a person's future if he is unable to control himself to stop gambling.
So before addiction becomes a threat to us it would be better to always be consistent and think that gambling is not a place to double money.
Because if you are already a gambling addict, it will be difficult to stop and you are not even aware that you are a gambling addict and it will be very difficult if you do not have self-awareness to stop avoiding gambling.
