Topic: Alter Ego In Gambling - page 3. (Read 1253 times)
I don't think I have one, but I also know some individuals who are like your friend. They are too simple in other things like their looks, but they spend big on gambling. I'm also a simple man myself but I don't spend much on gambling. I gambling moderately. So even if I don't eat at expensive restaurants or don't wear branded clothes, I'm not spending the rest of the money in gambling. I sometimes bet big but that's not at the expense of my other needs such as food. I don't sacrifice my other needs just for gambling.
I'd say I pretty much do the same, only in reverse. In real life, I'm much more likely to take a risk which might or not pay off. When I gamble tho, I tend to be more cautious and reserved, as I understand chances are against me, and substantial losses could happen quite quickly. The attitude helped me save a lot on Roobet and Dplay, and only once on Stake I actually lost some money I considered to be something I didn't want to happen again, so that only reinforced my future behavior.
That’s why the best is to only gamble money you can afford to lose and that won’t make a big difference for you
I know its not the coolest and most exciting strategy but better safe than sorry
What do you think?

How about you Are you gambling in a way that is very different from your true personality,
I think when he gambles, his true personality is revealed, because only when doing things directly related to life or money can he reveal his hidden personality. Sometimes everyday life forces him to create a cover and not live up to his personality, and he is satisfied with his personality when playing because no one is looking at or judging him. In everyday life, sometimes I also have some different personalities which depend on different situations. Mostly I have to live for my family, so when it comes to spending or investing where my wife knows, so I have to be very careful and cannot take risks. But when I gamble, or invest in crypto (this is money that my wife and family don't know about), I can feel comfortable taking risks, because if I lose, at least it won't affect to my wife and family. I think many of us also have different parts of our personalities where we play things that are not looked at or judged by others.
Personality changes are normal when we are on a different side which I think happens a lot nowadays. Young guys especially, because they have their own different characters when they are online but can be silent when talking to people personally. They can talk more when they are unseen while they zip their mouths when facing another human being.
I think the same goes when it comes to gambling, especially those who are active in chatrooms. I've seen characters that I don't think can happen in person where they get so aggressive at talking to other people and sometimes asking for a fight. That's because their faces won't be revealed so their courage are so high that they think they can say anything.

I think yes. In real life, I'm very practical in terms of finance, that I don't usually spend on everything that I see. Be it food in the streets, shirts in the mall, some unnecessary items in the grocery, etc... . But I'm quite amazed on how I can spend a lot of money in gambling. By that, I regret too, and question my self on why I can't do that outside or at least spend small with them?
I'll tell you from my own experience. Gambling has taught me to be more relaxed when it comes to spending $2-$3 on street food. Previously, even if I was hungry, I thought it's too much for a snack, I'd better eat something at home. And now I think, "I can lose those $3 on slots in less than 2 minutes easily, even betting with the smallest amount possible. So, I think I can afford it." And my life has become happier.
I only want to earn small profit in gambling but it's just that it won't happen when I badly needed it. As a result, I keep coming back to recover what I previously lost, only to see that the result are still the same. Risking small in gambling can still give us a big win if we are lucky. We only need to choose the right game for it. But the chance of getting them is even slimmer than usual, and this can still make someone else to bet more.
Just don't do that. It's always a bad idea, trying to recover anything through gambling.

Each person has their own preferences, so as long as you are spending your money in something that you like then your behavior is acceptable, what can be a problem is that it seems you like chasing your losses and this can be dangerous, because the more you gamble the more losses you will get, which in return will create a stronger desire to keep gambling and so on, so try to control those feelings, and if you do then you will be free of that issue and any negative repercussions that behavior could have brought to you.I only want to earn small profit in gambling but it's just that it won't happen when I badly needed it.

People would really be that normally be that emotional on which it is really that having those reactions on losing money.No matter how fine you are or really that too
be cool but on the time that you would really be losing money then these reactions would really be just that so normal.
It is really just that people should be having that kind of acceptance on the time that they do deal with gambling on which these reactions
are really just that common or something that you could really be able to have that kind of after effects.
In order to accomplish our goal, I believe we need to make it usual to put needs before wants. Yes, gambling can make these people happy, but we should be careful with how we spend our money. If we continue to gamble as a habit, it will be hard to break because we will keep looking for lost money and thinking of ways to make more to support our addiction.
In my opinion, spending excessive amounts of money on unnecessary things could make you feel good temporarily, but it might not have a big impact on your happiness down the road.
I just discovered a friend's personality, who in real life is very thrift and very conservative but once he played online in casinos he became very reckless and loved to play the risks because for him when it comes to gambling if you cannot take a risk you don't have a chance to win big, that's a big contrast from his real personality for him he has alter ego when it comes to gambling, so his outlook and decision is very much different when playing.

It's strange to hear that someone who is very thrifty is able to have an alter ego that is so wasteful. Usually someone that takes care of their money stays far away from gambling, but I guess if it's new to them, it's possible to get caught in the allure of easy money and thinking you can actually turn it into an income stream. Unfortunately as with many things in life, you can try to educate someone and steer them towards resources that might help them out, but they will have to make their own mistakes to learn from them. Sometimes the pain associated with making a mistake can be the only thing that will stop someone from repeating it, as it can be burned into their psyche from that point onwards.
Yeah! You should be allowed to spend your hard-earned cash as you see fit, without judgment from others. As long as you're not gambling away money that isnt yours, then there should be no issue. Point is, money gets people feelin' some type of way so don't judge others because you dont know their story. Just focus on your own wallet and everything will be gravy.
That true, but if it related to things that have risks, such as gambling, we still have to be able to maintain it and have limits that are appropriate to our ability to lose that amount of money.Don't let us be like the saying that today we can have fun uncontrollably but tomorrow we hungry.
A person needs money to live their daily life and we work to make money with the aim of having an adequate life to be able to have decent life and not experience misery so there must be control over the use of money.
Don't feel like we earn money with hard work and can spend it according to our hearts desires and then we can lose control, remember that when we get old we need savings and preparation to face conditions that will not allow us to be able to earn more money.
Gambling should use money that we earn ourselves, it is not appropriate to gamble only by relying on other people gifts or borrowing money.
Gambling will have significant impact if there is an appropriate approach and implementation of all aspects of management that are needed.
We have the desire to be able to constantly have fun, which is normal, but on the other hand, we have to think about the long term.
We have to be able to have number of assets and savings which might later be of great help.
There is no need for an alter ego for this. It is enough to be aware of where and how you should behave. Your friend may be conservative in his daily life, but being conservative in all areas of life does not make him different from one place to another. I think your friend knows the rules well. Because the way to win at gambling is to take risks, and if you remain conservative when you gamble, the only thing you can do is to get your daily allowance. If gambling is gambling, it has to pay off and the necessary risks have to be taken. Every person's character can change when gambling or react differently to each event. In fact, it is wrong to identify this with alter ego. Changes in character, especially when gambling, can be linked to reward deficiency syndrome.
One thing I noticed about playing online gambling is that when you are playing you play like someone who is playing with free money or like someone who is using a program money in the system to play. And you don't care to know how much you would spend for a game. Let's take for example when you have cash at hand and you want to play game maybe you are holding like $30 playing it all to gamble will be like a reckless person, but that same $30 can be funded on your online betting app and played the game without given it a second thought. I think physical cash have a great role to play in gambling. And when it's funded you start having that ego or pride because nobody is seeing how much you play online and wouldn't ask you or advice you. But playing with cash at hand will expose you to too many questions.
Yeah! You should be allowed to spend your hard-earned cash as you see fit, without judgment from others. As long as you're not gambling away money that isnt yours, then there should be no issue. Point is, money gets people feelin' some type of way so don't judge others because you dont know their story. Just focus on your own wallet and everything will be gravy.
But there are somethings that we choose and like doing on privacy and won't want anyone to get involved on it majority of us, despite the fact that we work and own our money, we still spend it with discretions, so for that there are some lifestyle that we may counsel from others amd making us have am alter ego which is what majority do and experience.Just like others have mentioned how many people around them don't know that they gamble but in reality their call gambler's which is what we are discussing.

I don't have an alter ego. In reality, I love moderation, that is, I try not to take things to the extreme and I have applied this in my gambling. I always control my stake and the potential outcome since I believe in building gradually and not by winning big.
Trying to win big is an attribute of greed in my thinking and so I always want to win little. I know that nothing is certain about gambling and this universal truth has also helped me control how I gamble.
Staking high does not guarantee winning but rather results in pain if the bet is lost. Hence, no need for panic gambling. Stay in control.

Definitely the negative repercussions that can come with such continuing gambling habits is most definitely addiction which will beat problem to both the gambler and his closet related People around them. Gambling for fun too can at some point turn this bad too aswell where you will crave for wins after too many losses and with the hope that you will win back your money.Sometimes there are things you like and spending your money on them because you like them , will never be acceptable because sometimes that could be at the detriment of other people, so before you venture into spending your money the way you like make some reconsideration, the concept of chasing losses is one very dangerous end in gambling that most gambler seem not to take note of how dangerous it can be because they are yet to be hit by it's adverse effects, sometimes it could possibly lead to addiction without out the players consent.

I think it's not alter ego, but your friend have just showed the real of his personality. If you think you're know your friend personality very well because you've knew him for 3+ years, working together, eating together, hangout together, playing together etc you're wrong.
You need to take av vacation with him and involve him with money, you will know his true face.
Reminds me of someone who used to be friends, but when all involved with big money, his true nature emerges and that's his true nature. You need to take av vacation with him and involve him with money, you will know his true face.
It's not in gambling, but it has to do with what you say about someone's true face.
The alter ego in gambling is just a mental problem, it's about being on the good side and the bad side.
All will be seen when you start playing gambling and get a loss or victory.
Because every emotion of a person will not be stable when receiving shocks when losing, or when receiving a big jackpot.

Well, aside from the fact that most people around me do not know I am a gambler, or that I engage in gambling, this people are actually people who are very close to me like my wife, neighbors and so on, they could consider this am alter ego of my very self if they ever get to learn that I gamble, most especially my neighbor who actually owns a betting shop, and never for once have I ever stepped my feet in there or asked him or his wife how the business was going, to them, I am completely a no betting or gambling person, as I have never spoken about it to them, or showed in my my behavior, and even when they are come up with discussion of some one who won a big amount of money in their bet, I usually instantly act uninterested in such discussion.
So, aside from this, I wouldn't say that I have any alter ago towards gambling, but for this my neighbors, I doubt they would believe this if ever they get to find out that I actually gamble, but who's gonna tell them anyway.?
