That's what happens where they think that gambling is just for fun but in fact, some of them can make regular deposits which of course is something that is excessive or addicted. Even though they don't make it as a source of income but when they make deposits regularly, then of course this habit is a bad habit because after all they are just playing for fun which of course doesn't need to be done as often as possible.

Exactly right - when you stop feeling gambling is fun, there is no point in playing anymore.

So many gamblers that I know view gambling as a tool to recoup past investment losses/make short term, quick profits. But they don't understand that each bet they have has a negative EV, which is why the house is willing to take on that bet with them in the first place.

Sometimes a little mathematical literacy is all you need to poke through the delusions that have been formed by the mind. This is one of the prime examples.

Some of the people didn't too much notice they are getting addicted into playing of gambling because it satisfy themselves but afterwards being to much gambler they already deposit and wasted a lot of money on that time they urge more to earn because they want to take back their money again. This is the reason why having a self control when everytime we gamble. Gambling is just right there but the money is hard to earn. We know that there's a statistical formula if you want to play gambling but if you are good with numbers and probability there's a chance you win the game but if you are just hoping for luck i don't think so with it.

Make money from gambling is obtained by a few and this must be understood. A gambler must understand why he is gambling and how much it costs him. If he enjoys gambling more than other comparable types of entertainment and it does not result in a serious reduction of his finances, I do not see any problem with it. If his loved ones suffer from this hobby, then he needs to stop gambling.

Some people could bet without even knowing the amount of time and money they have invested in gambling which could look obvious and call for estimation. I gamble a lot and sometimes I don't even know if it's becoming excess not.

The real problem here is, the excess amount is not having any universal standard but it is up to individual's income dependent hence one gambler may wrongly assume by watching how much another gambler spends in a gambling premises which might lead them to go excessive in terms of both time and money.

In my opinion, we must have self control and discipline on how much we need to spend based on our individual parameters. This will help anyone to gamble responsibility which must be the first step toward avoiding excess gambling.

Well addiction can be risky in gambling but can also help to make money especially when one is a pro in the business.

@Desmong I don’t think so, addiction have no advantage remember casino have house edge and will do whatever it takes to drain the gambler all the winning even as a pro you can’t survive an addiction the only way to destroy an addiction is total stay off. Even if you are making good profits from gambling, there should also be a limit set so that you can checkmate your involvement in other to constantly review your time spent on gambling it helps most at-times.

Yes, he doesn't know what he's talking about. There are no pros in gambling, unless he's talking about poker but that's not what he's talking about. Being addicted can only lead you to lose money because you are not in control and even when you get a mini winning streak, you keep playing more and more until you lose. And I completely agree that for the gambling addict the only way to beat the addiction is to quit completely, in the same way that for the alcoholic the solution is to never try another drop of alcohol.

Excess gambling means gambling addiction,whether it is good or bad.I don't think there is any possibility in being addicted to gambling,all I know and see are it's negative effects.Gambling addiction seems to be a spirit that cannot be controlled.When the urge to play a bet comes,even one's last dime,he or she is ready to use it in gambling.

Excess gambling results to frustration,stealing,depression and so on.when one looses a huge amount of money in gambling,the feeling of frustration that comes thereafter is one that can lead to depression.
We should try to limit the rate at which we gambe,else it consequences will befall us.

I have seen people gambling with positive vibes of them winning at all costs. I could remember when I started gambling, I was always optimistic of winning high bets that will later cool my mind and cover all my accumulated loses. I believe the same thing happens to other people making them to bet more, becoming addicted to gambling.

Some people could bet without even knowing the amount of time and money they have invested in gambling which could look obvious and call for estimation. I gamble a lot and sometimes I don't even know if it's becoming excess not.

Those are clear signs that you are losing control of the situation and that you are descending in the spiral known as gambling addiction, however it seems you have a chance to get out of it and my advice is to do it while you can, after all once an addiction is completely developed it is way more difficult to get out, so it is better to take preventive steps to avoid this to happen to you and maybe it is a good idea to forget about gambling for a few months so you can leave those feelings behind and you concentrate in doing something else to entertain yourself.

Don’t gamble excessively because it leads to strong addiction.

Indeed. When we often gamble excessively, we probably are addicted already. And if it continues for years, we may have a heavy addiction. Everyone must avoid a heavy addiction since recovery will be more difficult. For a heavy addiction, it should get special treatment from an expert (doctor). And to recover from this addiction level mostly takes a longer time.

Well addiction can be risky in gambling but can also help to make money especially when one is a pro in the business. All business or attempt is risky but it depends on how one is able to understand is levels when it comes to risk taking and executing one's aim. You wouldn't ague it that what has disadvantage will also have advantage which is the reason why life is not balance. After criticizing some particular fields of life, we'll see that many are still making it in such field which relate life to be sophisticated.

We will never last a year if we are too addicted, gambling does not have a limit for losers, only for winners, so if you keep losing, you are most welcome because they make money from you, and if you are not enjoying, then most probably you will just chase and time will come you'll steal money just to gamble.

Yep, if someone has been addicted, he probably won't last a long time. There will be complicated problems both for his funds and his attitude in life. That's why we must be very careful to avoid being addicted. We already know that some addicts ended with a bad story, although many of them can recover from addiction and be normal again. But don't ever think to experience addiction, it will be a too bad experience!!

Yes, gambling can destroy a person's life in some cases, as I believe many of us have seen. The addictive nature of gambling can affect a person's state of mind, as well as have serious psychological, physical, social, and professional impacts on individuals as well as on their families. Although gambling negatively affects a small but significant number of people, research has shown that many compulsive gamblers resort to drugs, alcohol, and other harmful activities in order to cope with the anxiety caused by their gambling habits. It is all about cause and effect, because once the cause has been identified and prevented, no harmful effects will occur.

there is this formula I adopt recently, and that is to set a stop to lose your gambling lifestyle always try to have a limit to whatever you are doing I know some things can be highly addictive but again you need to help yourself out of getting too involved with gambling.

People react differently to addictions. Gambling excessively is a mental disorder that need nobody but only you to disease from. Gambling has the same thing like drugs and other substances that can stimulate the brain leading to addiction. This kind of addiction might want you to risk out something you value hoping that you’ll get something greater or higher. With this mentality, you’ll lose bets and have debts that might be life threatening and you’ll start involving anything to aid you. The need for controlled gambling is key.

Either ways gambling platform still make a profit but the one at the receiving end is the gambler because you have to make deposits since you are constantly playing games, I think every gambler need to come to a point where they decide what are the motive behind they gambling life, if you are gambling for fun then I don’t think you need to put in excessive efforts but if you are gambling as a business then you need skills and constant gambling.

You cant really tell because there might be treating this as some sort of fun in the beginning and turns out to be chasing already for some profits later on or simply they had already changed up their mindset.

People cant really be predicted because it all matters with self control and if youre someone who doesn't really care about making money and just seeking for pure entertainment then dealing with
gambling wont really be giving any issues.

Anything excess would always be harmful so you should really watch out.

Quote from: danherbias07 on August 09, 2021, 10:33:56 PM

I disagree. Whenever something is done too much it always goes to a bad scenario. I can use my own experience as an example when I gamble what I worked for with a signature campaign. Let's say I loss 50k sats and want to win it back, yes you can win it back but something tells you there must be a little profit before you end the game. It's fun at start but it gets stressful if it goes too long. You just want that little profit but yet cannot achieve it until it just goes back and forth and you are already wasting more time instead of just doing something else. It's not just money being wasted and then you are starting to have a bad temper.

It's not like you're unable to set a time limit, just that make the budget the highest priority when it comes to limiting what you want. Besides, it's a lot easier to quit midway due to the wins and loses being back and forth, instead of quitting midway due to the time limit being reached. The former is honestly easy tbh, but the latter? When you're enjoying gambling or in a state of enjoying the thrill or adrenaline, having no money limit but instead of a time limit can quickly siphon your funds without any limit on the money that you can spend. Honestly, I'd rather prefer getting frustrated tbh since it means I can stop early.

No that's a common misconception, but in reality casinos are mostly making profits through the house edge they take on their games, so on the long run it's not a good thing for them if players lose too much and get burnt too quickly. Because if they give up after only few months, the casino will not receive anymore its house edge from them.

We have seen many cases where people become gambling addict and why so? Because they put themselves in conditions where they went mile extra in gambling and place bets in excess or say your budget was of $100 monthly but suddenly you can't resist yourself and put $200 or more it will be called excess gambling if you can't afford it.So it's better not to indulge in any such excessive gambling and becoming addicted to it as consequences are really bad which you can learn from stories of gambling addicts.

Simply they do go overboard into gambling on where they are already spending on the amounts that is way more than that they could afford to lose.If you do go past to your limit and
ending up on taking some loans and having big debts then this is where problem do starts to become big.Anything which is excessive is really bad and this is why its important that
you should know on how to control up yourself and able to stop mid way and if you do tolerate on what you are doing then expect the consequences that would happen.
