Exactly the money spent isn't meant to be seen as an investment. Most gamblers would think that the money, they've spent in gambling is accumulating such that one day they'll win it back. It's a wrong perspective as a gambler. Expecting money while gambling isn't a better means of gambling, it affects the way the gambler spends money. Hence, it's crucial for a gambler to accept, he's out there for fun and shouldn't get sad over how much he will spend or win in the process. The win can be used to continue gambling or withdrawn for other utilities that interests the gambler. However, in terms of money, as gamblers controlling a big amount of money, requires a strong will power. And not every gambler is able to possess such energies needed to control a huge win. That's why a good number of jackpot winners ended up going broke.

I've only seen few businessmen who utilized their big wins properly in helping their business grow and forfeiting gambling activities. That could be because of the amount of self-control they've got in running a business and making investments. Aside that, other big winners see it a hassle to hold the money for a long period, without lavishing it back on gambling or other rich lifestyles. That has nothing to do with the personality of the player, he's only living a life that suits his fantasies. Hence the brain is controlling him to spend based on those things he feels is interesting. In a nutshell a gambler needs to follow same routines as when they had low budget to when there is a high budget. Human behavior changes in both ways. Man can't think similarly like he used to when he had not much money, compared to when he's got a whooping amount of money. That's why the gambler also need to master self-control as a high roller.

I agree with that, I also agree with that everyone must want the best for themselves but the best is not done excessively as in gambling, because by gambling excessively it will not produce the best but can produce something bad such as losses because of the loss of a large amount of money and also we should be able to manage our finances well not spending a lot of money on gamblings because it is not a good, thing by this it is bound to wise gambling because peoples who gamble wisely I think they will not do somethings like this.

It's true, if we know how to deal with everything well then the possibility is that we can make a profit even if it's not much,  because many people don't deal with it well and also respond wrongly so that it is not profitable for them but it is detrimental to themselves. not only is it a unique thing but I think it really needs to be set in every time we gamble, because then we can do gambling properly. like having limits, including budget and time. and also gambling is a place to have fun, but it requires money to be able to do it, and the money used must be considered lost, like paying for a movie ticket.

A companion to watch the gambler's session and advise him to stop when he goes too far could work similarly to the roman tradition of placing a slave (auriga) near the roman authority to whisper on his ears: "remember, you are only a man", or "remember, you are mortal". These constant warnings were useful to prevent the authority (emperor, commander, general, etc...) developing megalomaniac traits and feeling superior, invencible, omnipotent, untouchable, what unfortunatelly are common characteristics among addicted gamblers who think to be able to overcome the casino, despite the chances being against them on long term.

You brought up a good idea which has already been executed by the romans with success in the past. However, for the modern man it's unlikely to work, because as you said: gamblers (and people in general) will never confess they need help... Modern human being's self has become overly proud of itself. Unlike the romans from ancient times, they don't remember they are mortal, that they are only men. If someone tries to give a positive and helpful advice, it's likely the addicted indivual immediately turns against him with offenses.

If more gamblers realized that they didn't need to set the goal of winning when they were gambling, of course, there wouldn't be as many gamblers who lost because they could understand that gambling is not a job that can make money. But gambling is an unnecessary entertainment taken too seriously. But the reality that has happened so far and perhaps will still happen in the future is that more gamblers will hope to make money from gambling, especially as they will more often see other gamblers making a lot of money. Such a mindset should have been changed after they read many articles or stories about the failures of gamblers who want to make money to prevent that from happening to them.

It would be even better if gamblers who could win only considered their winnings as a bonus because they had taken part in gambling, whatever the gambling game, so they would not think about trying to win other gambling games. They also don't need to force their winnings every time they gamble because gambling will not always give them a win but will give other gamblers a win. We can only wait for the win to come, but that doesn't mean that during that waiting period, we have to gamble more often, let alone use a lot of money, because that will only result in a lot of losses. If they are not ready or do not want to experience a lot of losses, they do not need to take the risk of gambling using a lot of money but only use enough money to enjoy their free time. After all, gambling is just an activity that can be done in our free time, while there are many other entertaining activities that we can use to get pleasure.

Too much comfortable and thinking that you already know everything I agree with you. We should be aware of what happens to other people when they've got that same energy when gambling. Too much confidence might lead you into greed and, instead of having that good control, you may fall into addiction as you continuously want to play and have that quick outcome.

We must consider all the factors that affect our gambling participation. Knowing the grounds and understanding the possibilities will help you to keep control over any emotions that may lead you to anything that may harm your finances and your mental health.

Making profits or winning has got a way of making you feel like you are just good enough and your decisions were just perfect and if you are not good enough to having self control, you may just jump into thinking that it's that easy and you can always continually win so no need of seeing what others are doing or even learning from their mistake.

You may at some point feel like you are not capable of making such a mistake so you just go ahead make your picks and stake without much consideration in to what the possible outcome could be because you may seem too sure of what your picks are. It's very important that at every point we should get to know what others are doing and also make sure to learn from their mistake so we don't fall victim of such thing happening to us aswell because we didn't take our time to observing and learning.

Well, that depends a lot on the financial situation that the person has, when there is a person who understands, understands well that things in casinos are Different , because we are people who always go to look for the best, I do not deny that things can always be directed to look for the best, the funds everything that is necessary to have a better life, with respect to the fact that we are the people who look for the best to have, because there are some who do not know about investment, they only know pure spend money, and that is something that sometimes we do not see, the eproansqeu have money all the time and they spend it all Because they are people who Perhaps have many Needs or it is because they will buy and need more , but it is because they will not control themselves if they have money If you spend more , it's because they don't have a good policy for things, the same thing happens in casinos, if we don't know how to Control it, we can't play in a casino, it's impossible because we won't spend a lot of money.

Partly when we are looking for ways to do things better in a casino I always come to the conclusion that I hardly want to reach much, and I have seen some in the forum who have achieved this, of course not for millionaire figures but figures that are resetable for any player in the world, in this order of things things can turn out in our Favor when we know how to face them , for those Reasons we must be very good at managing money for casinos and for any environment that has to do with platforms where money is Introduced , for this reason when we are inside, self-Control must be something unique, we cannot go looking for any type of event where it leaves us or decapitalizes us, I always look for places to have fun, but yes, I have a Balance to spend it, I see it as a Service , and if I earn money, it's fine.

Exactly as I said earlier that it is really not recommended to put the goal on winning if you are involved in gambling, as you said and I agree that the fact is that gambling is not a generating activity like a real job out there, it is nothing more than a game of probability that gives chances to every gambler, we must remember and understand that it is nothing more than a "chance" without any certainty, so that means that it is not certain that you can make the winning chance come true, this result really cannot be forced because it will come by itself without knowing.

Every gambler should think and consider that it is not a victory but rather a reward for their participation, so obviously maybe you also understand that the name of the prize is synonymous with something that you can not always get. So the point is that forcing a win in gambling will only make you end up worse or that means it will only increase the amount you lose usually because gambling is not something that should be taken seriously but it is nothing more than a playground to get rid of boredom. On the other hand yes I have said before that maybe we can only wait for the victory to come by itself because we really don't know when it will come, so with this of course it is better to focus on applying boundaries and self-control rather than focusing on something that is not certain.

If they could realize that something had changed about them and that it was not good for them, they should have tried to start reducing it before something changed. Those who believe they can make money from gambling will not give the results they want because it is gambling where there is a loss that is always waiting for them to take their money. Those who don't want to understand this will experience many losses and won't be able to make any money. Continuing to gamble without stopping will turn them into gambling addicts who can get worse and can no longer be stopped because the temptation of gambling will become stronger.

That is why we must be able to make gambling entertainment so that we will not lose a lot of money and can also prevent gambling addiction. Gambling can bring joy to them, but they must remember that this joy can disappear at any time and be replaced by sadness because of the loss of money, which can become bigger if they still cannot control themselves. They really have to change their mindset so they don't think that gambling can make money. They should be able to forget the desire to use gambling as a way to make money and make it a way to get entertainment and once they get it, they should stop as soon as possible.

When playing gambling, we should not use gambling as a way to make money so that we will become eager to win. That will be difficult for us because gambling is not a job or a business that can make money. People who use gambling as a business should be aware of it immediately because it can make their lives a mess and they cannot recover their losses. There is a chance to win, but we can only force ourselves sometimes to win because it is difficult to achieve. We shouldn't have high hopes for gambling so that it will cause problems for us. By always limiting our gambling activities, we can prevent excessive gambling so that we will not experience more losses.

To get the win, we can only wait for the win to come by itself. We don't know when we will win so we are better off just gambling for fun. Loss after loss will come to us if we force ourselves to gamble continuously so that we will only lose a lot of money. This is where we need to realize that we cannot make money from gambling because a factor of loss will come so we can only gamble to get entertainment.

By seeing and learning from other people's mistakes, at least we know how to be responsible for ourselves so that we won't experience losing money like them. We should gamble just to spend our free time while waiting for the time to do other activities so that when the time is almost here, we can stop our gambling activities and move on to other activities. That's the point of limiting what we do when gambling so that we can avoid the problem of gambling addiction that many other gamblers have experienced.

To the list of advices mentioned here already, I would add that gambler should find or try to find a person that will monitor gamblers experience. Such person is needed to stop gambler from going far. Some kind of a mentor, observer. A person that does not involve into process, but when the situation gets tense, he will advice to take a break, pause, say that it is enough for today. Why such person is needed? Because gambler will admit that things have gone to far when they are already far. Gambler will never confess that he needs help.

of course gambling can change someone who gambles from their attitude and behavior if they gamble excessively, and obviously with their finances because gambling is tied to money. also with those who gamble responsibly, those who gamble responsibly of course they will limit their gambling as well as with their budget, of course they will set a budget amount, and when they lose they will not increase the budget again to deposit back in the casino and gamble again.

My advice to those who have gambled too far, they hope to realize that excessive gambling is not good, so they should be able to limit their gambling so as not to spend their money in vain, because even though there is a victory in gambling but it will not be worth the defeat that has occurred. maybe it can happen jackpot but it is very rare.

Learning from others mistakes it good. But how many people do it. Its rare that people learning from someone mistake. Everyone think that he knows everything and he is the expert when he or she make some profits. But but that over confident pull you down because for that confident you take wrong stape and for that wrong stape you lost your money because of that you must follow if you have someone experience who can give you advice. Or otherwise you are alone then learning don't try to be an expert at the beginning.

Good point! Better to learn from those mistake coming from other people, if you don't want to lose more money you should play with full resposibilities of your actions, there are people who intentionally playing just to kill some time and they are able to manage not to exceed from it, better to work with your limitation and not to follow the emotion to avoid getting too much engagements that will lead you to any type of gambling addiction.

I don't think gambling is responsible for changing the player's mind, money did. As human we tend to spend higher when we have bigger money in the bank account. It's rare to find a billionaire who would be comfortable staying in the slums. Same applies to every aspect of life, as gamblers we may have drafted the amount of money to wager per game, but due to an unexpected win the gambler can easily increase his budget. To control this the gambler doesn't need to have access to the money. However, with a good self-control the person may handle the wins without adding any extra money to his designated wagering amount. Moreover, if the player is influenced by alcohol, he'd have a hard time with minimizing his gambling costs. Gambling with our self in control, not having any other substances added to the brain, is quite a better advice to share within the gambling community.

In my opinion, winning should not be made the main goal and focus in gambling because this point of view is something that is always the starting point of many problems that are likely to occur, starting from the wrong point of view which ultimately makes them gamble in the wrong way, such as forcing something (winning) too much, I understand that there is a possibility for the chances of winning to become a reality but all of that is out of the gambler's control, you can't force it by doing a lot of experiments because obviously there is no certainty whatsoever for winning at the end of the session, we can see a lot of gamblers who are stressed and I say that because they put too much hope and high expectations on gambling which ultimately makes them feel even more disappointed when the final result turns out to be losing again.

So for the problem of winning I think you can only wait for it without the need to force it by doing some careless or even stupid actions that you think can increase the chances, the way gambling works is not at all what you imagine, and what you do is nothing more than something out of hallucination that makes you seem to believe and believe but the final result slaps you again.

In my perspective, gambling is about enjoying the game, not winning big. Gambling should be seen as fun, not an income stream. Similar to attending a concert or sports event, the purpose is enjoyment, not profit.

You're right on strategy. A well-calculated strategy that matches one's betting style and mental state is essential. Approach it methodically, not impulsively. I usually advocate balance: betting within one's means and setting reasonable expectations. The play, not the outcome, should thrill.

Finally, winning surprises are fun. A surprise win is like finding a treasure - unexpected and more satisfying. Be cautious, especially after a win. Winners can get carried away, but smart gamblers show control. Aim for continuous fun with occasional wins as a bonus.

Nothing should stop a good gambler from gambling again if they plan their gambling style very well. I do not entertain fear here as to stop because of winning, it is the mindset of the bettor that matters. A good calculation in gambling is also important and this must be cordial with the betting style of the person and with a very good mental state. Once the three can agree and the bettor is not thinking of huge money to gain in every bet, everything is going to be fine. The fact that they believe they can make huge money in gambling is the beginning of their problem and if not cautioned from the beginning, it will aggravate and the end is not always good.

As you said, it is good to view gambling as a means of entertainment and not a means to make money, anything short of this will not end well, it has to be lightly taken in our minds and not the way most people take it. If it is taken that way, who knows, a big win could come from it. But the gist and the most encouraging part is that the bettor wouldn't have put his mind there, so nothing would be pushy due to his betting mindset. And when the good gain is hit, it will just be a surprise and I still implore the bettor to take it easy at this stage of winning so that emotion will not set in and greed will cause all the won money to be lost again. Such should continue with the entertaining spirit and continue to have fun at the same time even as any winning games will continue to show once in a while without the bettor pushing it too hard.

that's true, there are some of them who gamble with a target when they are going to gamble, but when they have gambled and got a win they don't cash it out but continue the game with a higher bet amount, with this I think gambling can influence thinking. someone who plays it, where someone who has a target can change their motives if they are already in gambling You are right maybe this is because of greed that drives them to take this risky action and indeed I have also experienced this risky action, I think this can be avoided with self-awareness.

I've felt what you said, where I gambled with the aim of not winning but just getting bored and I also didn't care about the money I deposited so I played without being careful,  but in the end it was the same as winning because I won. which was quite large and at that moment without thinking twice I immediately cashed it in, because that was the best choice if I had won.

Of course, if we want to win again, it won't be easy because many people have tried, but they haven't succeeded. Maybe only a few people can get that win because they can get lucky, but no one knows when we can get lucky. We can only try to gamble but there is no need to try hard because gambling is not a place to make money. And we indeed need self-control when gambling so that we don't experience as many losses as other gamblers experience. We must pay attention to ourselves when gambling and must always be careful when gambling. We also don't need to experience experiences like other gamblers who have lost a lot of money because as long as we can control ourselves well, we can prevent that loss.

The idea of winning back and going back is very common and that's a mistake we should stop if we want our gambling habit to stay intact, have you ever observed people like this cause have observed them and I decided to ask them questions and I found out that people who win and replay with the win don't win back rather they end up losing the money.
Self control is needed in gambling and anything even in our investment self control is necessary, people who become addicted to gambling lack self control and when they lose they always want to go back and gradually the person is turning to an addict, that's why we hear people say I gamble everyday to become an expert, that's a big lie.
