I may sound like a broken record but people need to understand that gambling is type of fun and that fun you pay with your looses. Now there is a possibility to earn money but that is just a possibility. If you look at it like this you will be fine.

Yes gambling is fun but we need to understand that we needed to be very observant to get what we want so that we are not going to end up losing everytime. The people that are making money from gambling are those that understand the system very well and know how to find their way back to get what they want.

If you leave the observation to chance and personal control you may end up being defeated and being unable to control your gambling habits, the best possible formula to use is to try to set a stop time on your gaming session, that way, you allocate a specific time and once that time is exhausted, then ther will no choice than to take a break from gambling.

So many gamblers have slid into gambling addictions due to a lack of proper time management, and it is not good to gamble excessively simply because you have free time, that practice is bad, but then having a stop time is the best standard practice if you feel you are gambling excessively.

do you know that you did this people now that is misunderstanding gambling because gambling is for adult is not for use and it is something that people who are rich use in the name of play but this time around we take that balance very serious more than any other thing which will use everything we have to ensure that we have played gamble in order to make money and I believe that that is wrong from my understanding gambling is a kind of play use for play

Anything else anyone can think of? Like...

How about have the mental strength and willpower to say no! If you are single and still in your 20s where your decisions don't affect the lives of others that much, it's not that big of a deal. You are only doing harm to yourself. If you have a family and kids who look at you as their superhero, start acting like one, at least when it comes to knowing good from bad. Your actions impact those around you in so many ways.

It's a different matter if you are single or a family person.
being single because the only thing that can be felt usually facing defeat is that the only person affected by what he or they did and everyone knows that.

But when it's called gambling, it doesn't choose whether you're single or not, instead we choose it. That's why it's important for a gambler to know where his gambling limit should be, because when the limits are exceeded, there is a problem, because as the op said, you didn't even have a break. Which is where you should first break and relax even for a moment to think normally.

Budget: set it BEFORE you start gambling and stick to it.

Also that the budget on gambling weekly should not be higher than 2 to 5% of the gambler weekly income.

Quote from: paxmao on May 11, 2023, 06:03:57 PM

Have a break from time to time, it is important to let your brain stop and consider.

Gambling should be for fun. It should not be what someone should consider to give a break for, but to be done at a very short period of time weekly.

Gamblers should not chase losses too

Do not stress yourself trying to win over gambling. That will not happen as gambling will always have an edge over its players. And always remember that gambling is designed for solely entertainment, and not a get rich quick or an avenue to give you fixed amount of profits. So never be fooled in gambling, learn to control yourself and just gamble on the amount you can afford to lose.

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.

These are really good tips, especially the one about staying away from drink and drugs, or any intoxicant is important. Even the stimulation from something like the caffeine in coffee or coca cola can be bad for you - even if you get hyper focused at the start, this could lead to mistakes or you could even get a sugar crash later, it's better to keep a balanced demeanor throughout your playing session. You should definitely limit the total overall time that you spend on this activity as well, even if you are taking breaks, because it's super easy to lose concentration (thinking of poker) so better to limit yourself to 3-4 hour sessions, go get some fresh air or simply do something else with the rest of your day.

Set the limit to the budget. I reckon people should have a budget set for entertainment or money set for expenses you'd use to spend for yourself, take a small amount from that instead of separating it.

It might also be useful to read self-exclusion terms in a casino, maybe try to put it in a easy to access button like bookmarks (or anything if you have something easier and faster).

Lastly, don't be dumb enough to chase for wins/losses. Just take what you can get imo. It's not a job, sure you can feel frustrated if you lose but limit it to that.

Be reminded that you can never beat gambling, it’s always the house that will win in the end. So never chase consistent profits, as it’s always impossible with gambling. If you can set a budget limit for gambling, enough that you can be satisfied with your gambling experience, then much better. And always know that gambling will never give us sustainable income, so we should not let our emotions be in controlled with gambling games and betting. Otherwise, you might be regretting in the end wishing you did not enter gambling in the first place.

Live with peace and enjoy life!

Never panic and just try to control your emotions as much as you can. Otherwise, you will end up into gambling addiction that makes you hard to control yourself anymore especially if you want to chase bigger profits or you want to recover all your previous losses, which I think is quite impossible already considering gambling is more of a loss than a gain. And always be reminded that gambling should never be taken seriously since its purpose is just to give pleasure and entertainment to us, and is never capable of making us profitable all the time. So discipline yourself before it gets too far in betting and gaming.

So in gambling, make sure you know why you are doing it and the purpose of it, and are you doing it for the long run?

For the purpose of entertainment, gamblers surely stick to their limits and self-control. But if they consider gambling as their source of income, no way that they will follow our advice. Instead, they even spend more and gamble more without thinking about the mental and financial effects on themselves.
I agree that only a few gamblers will take their time to listen to advice but rather expect the majority to ignore us and do what they think is right (even though it was totally wrong).

Most of the time people start gambling as a form of entertainment. This is true, but when timepass automatically people start to concentrate on earning out of their gambling activities. The lucky part, gambler wins and withdraw the winning. The negative part money lost and running behind to recover what one have lost through gambling. It is the time when a gambler should have self control to limit spending. Take a break and think how fast he/she had lost funds. Only through loss real understanding of gambling experienced. Further limiting the loss or just go bankrupt is one's own choice.

The problem some people have when it comes to gambling is they don't know when to stop. Learn to set a limit before gambling, and stop when you've exhausted your limit or budget.
Also, understand the game, know their odds, and winning
I hear people sell valuable properties to gamble when it isn't going as they planned some find solace in drugs making things worst for themselves.
Thanks for this piece, I hope they see this and make a change by playing responsibly.

For a gamble not to know when to stop gambling is tied to the fact that he or she feels that they can make huge earnings from gambling and that to win is a must for them which is not suppose to be so. Gambling is a very tricky act that needs to be kept in check at always because the moment you allow it turn an addiction I can bet you it can take a whole lifetime to stop such ill behavior and it can destroy all your years of hard work in just a split second when you are drown in that feeling of lost.

And that's true, few may take the advice and change the direction of their gambling involvement while the majority will ignore and will proceed and continue what they've thought is better for them, something that we can only provide our opinions and there's nothing that we can do about it, that's their money and they are free to do whatever they think might give them the entertainment and the possibility of having some decent profits if luck permits them to win.

I've been in your situation before, and it sucks to bet your last card on a game that will result in a loss at the end of the day. Most gamblers have become addicted because they spend the majority of their time looking for games to stake their money on, and this is especially noticeable in young adults. Between the ages of 18 and 20, youngsters tend to put unneeded pressure on themselves in order to earn more money for either their wants or for tangible things. It has become a common event in our modern day, and one of the most important pieces of advise I would give to any gambler out there is to take a deep breath and wait, because new opportunities are available every day, and we should grab what is accessible as long as it doesn't affect our finances stability.

See, if we are not very careful, gambling will get the best out of Us, sometimes, when some gamblers gamble, they use the wrong money and that money was not meant for gambling in the first place.

We have other things to use money for but, when you lost the money you will want to get it back and you start using some other money that was not meant for gambling again and before you know what is going on, you have lost all the money and you will go back home with zero money on you.

The first rule of gambling is to use the money that you are ready to lose and if the money is gone, do not try to chase what you have lost because in the end there is a chance that we even lose more money.

Till this day this is why my mother always say that gambling is evil, because it is more like something is controlling human beings that are into gambling because when you lost your money you are supposed to stop gambling, but you won't, you won't be able to control yourself you will lose control, You will want to keep gambling thinking that you will make more money that's why she thinks that can be in his evil.

Do not borrow money to gamble online
Do not use money that's meant to solve some expenses in your life.
The perfect money for gambling are extra money that has no use.

Gambling has an addicting factor to it this is why there are many people who we can refer as an gambling addict. Disciple in hard when you feel the intense adrenaline rush came to your body. Many gamblers feel this at the first time but there are people want to constantly feel it that's why they become a gambling addicts. The feeling that people receive on the first time they gamble is the one that I believe can make them uncontrollable. There are people who can control it but there are other that can't. This is why it's hard to introduce gambling to a people that has no good self control because they can be addicted. We all know the feeling of winning and the frustration of losing, The discipline of not coming back to win again or to comeback in losing is hard for them.

And from the experience they got for the first time in gambling, is what makes many of them want to get other experiences. They want to feel what it's like to win, so they keep gambling until they get a win. And even after they get a win, that doesn't make them stop immediately because they want to increase the number of wins. This is where good self-control is needed so that we don't get stuck in an atmosphere that can make us unable to stop. By having good self-control, we can know when we have to stop and leave the casino.

Quote from: piebeyb on May 14, 2023, 10:14:34 AM

Talking is easy, especially just to advise, but to do so will usually experience difficulties, just like gamblers who are sitting at a casino table, usually they are always like that when they run out of money and lose, playing gambling, they are getting out of control, even though we have planned to start controlling it.

I was once like that advising someone but I myself sometimes find it a little difficult to control myself, the only way is to place a deposit with a little money so I make sure I don't hold any other money so I don't make another deposit when I lose gambling I have to really limit spending. save the rest of the money with my wife so I can limit my spending on gambling every day.

That means you have good self-control before advising others because they will see that we cannot control ourselves either. They obviously won't want to obey us to stop gambling and instead blame us for being unable to stop.

But if you can control yourself well, they may still want to listen to you and will try to leave gambling. And if you can also invite them to do other things that have nothing to do with gambling or invite them to a place to enjoy the atmosphere, they will probably obey you. And that's where you can control those who want to continue gambling because they will get a different experience.

Exactly.Sometimes when the rage is getting the best out of me I think immediately of my daughter that this money which I am trying to recover lost amounts can be spend in a much better way by providing to my family and specifically to her,this gives me an enormous will power that in 3 years out of addiction I may have overdone it only 2-3 times and this with money I could afford to lose of course.

As long as you are single you will get bored and sad yourself but you are not responsible for others around you and as you say it is not of a big deal.

Good advice. Having a set budget before playing can prevent you from spending beyond your limit. Learn to have discipline, self-control and don't let your emotions influence you on making a decision. On the other side taking a break can help to think clearly and less pressure for yourself.

Quote from: paxmao on May 11, 2023, 06:03:57 PM

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.

This is a must if you want to overcome your addiction. Don't hesitate to seek help because the support of family and friends are necessary to encourage you on changing what you used to.

I'd like to add, for gamblers, before you play be aware of the risk and the possible thing that can happen. If you can't bear the idea of losing your money in gambling, then don't ever try to gamble. Gambling is fun and you can win huge money but if you have no discipline it can create a negative impact in your life.
