Avoiding gambling addiction is a must, but many people become addicted to gambling in the long term because they do not realize it. While they are at home and have internet access, a gambler will have much time to browse the internet and try to play online gambling. If they do not have another thing that can make them busy, they will busy in the gambling games and slowly, it will start to disturb their lives. If we can become responsible gamblers, we can avoid gambling addiction, and even we can play and stop gambling anytime because we know that playing gambling is just fills our free time.
The problem with the current pandemic situation is forcing most people to stay at home, and for people who are used to playing gambling.
So the entertainment options they can do by playing online gambling, if left in the long term can indeed cause addiction. I agree with you
we need to look for other positive activities, so that we can be busy and can prevent excessive gambling. Right now I try to keep myself busy
by exercising and reading a lot of books, so I limit my gambling time to every weekend only.
Actually, this pandemic gives that gambler privilege to play online gambling, especially for those who try to make money from gambling. But the problem is how they can manage their time not playing gambling all day long because they should remember that we need to be more active and search for other jobs that can help us make money. Hopefully, we always remember that we need that money and need to get new jobs and always prevent the addiction that can come to us anytime.

Those players who wanted to play online could easily do so even before the pandemic, because online casinos appeared long before the pandemic. The pandemic only attracted newcomers who were forced to spend their time looking for ways to have fun without leaving home.
Yes, online casinos appeared long before the pandemic but at that time, crypto online gambling is not too popular as these two years, especially when the pandemic starts in every country. So when the government asks their citizen to stay at home and work from home, those people will have more time to do many things, including playing gambling. That makes almost every online things become popular and online gambling gets more visitors because people come to their website because of the advertisement everywhere.

There are a lot of people posting here. In most of threads related to sportsbetting, most user just discuss about the match, how player performed, how they could perform etc but very few person discuss about odds, chances of winning a team and other factors related to bet.
Is it possible that most people only discuss here to fulfill their signature requirement? In my case, I don’t play games at casino. I used to play back in the day but not anymore while I'm still having sportsbet on most of the matches.
Be honest and share about you whether you post only for your signature requirement or you post because you are involved in gambling & you want to know or share knowledge.

I used to accompany my brother in physical casinos pre-covid but he eventually stopped due to this online setting.

I also tried gambling (via dota2lounge.com skins) and lost tremendous amounts of money from 50/50 betting. Whenever there are discussions about gambling and addiction, I try to relate and have a meaningful discussion since I relatively have experience on such field. I also witnessed my brother winning/losing large amounts of cash in a single night due to his greediness and lack of self-discipline in his ventures.

Yes this is right and this business had been already on a while and they had just increased out their player count as this pandemic hits because people are mostly spending their time online and to those gamblers then they don't have any options but to deal with online thing since physical gambling places is closed due to pandemic but since those businesses are started up to open their doors
then we can see those normal operations and statistics in terms of users in between places.

Im not a hardcore gambler where I do only spent an allocated amount which is simply an extra out of my monthly salary.Im trying out to spend as minimal as I can and for the sake

of  entertainment and leisure then those amounts allocated its just really that sufficient for my needs.

In general, people who play gambling are gamblers, even though playing gambling is not routine. Actually, it's not something to debate whether
we are gamblers or not, because the most important thing is that we are not addicted to gambling. Because if we get addicted to gambling it can
ruin our lives, playing gambling should be as entertainment. So play if there is extra money and can stop if we have experienced a large enough loss.
Don't let us think we can catch up with the losses we experience when playing gambling, this can initially make us addicted.
Maybe it will be okay if we are a gambler because as long as we can control ourselves and not use more money for any reason, we do not have to worry about becoming addicted. But be careful because if we feel we enjoy playing the game, we can tempt to use more money without realizing that we will have a chance to become addicted to gambling if that happens for a long time. We must prevent that by always taking care of ourselves in gambling games and always stopping gambling as soon as possible.
Indeed, there is nothing wrong with us being gamblers, as long as we can be responsible gamblers. As you have explained, we really have to know
the limits when playing gambling, don't let it be because we enjoy playing gambling too much, then can excessively gamble. Because it started
to become addicted to gambling, most gamblers are addicted because they don't realize it. They think by playing gambling all the time and not
disturbing others, it will be fine. The fact that it can make a gambler's life start to mess up, because people who are addicted to gambling will
definitely interfere with daily activities. Be a responsible gambler by limiting the time to play gambling, and also limit the money that will be used
for gambling, so that we can avoid gambling addiction.

But that has been said , the casino Houses now are backin business though limited people are allowed to enter and play yet gamblers can back on their feet and play back again with ambiance and with positive outlook.
not like when the closure is indeed in progress that players can only play online or in illegal meet ups in friends houses to sustain their gambling activity with life interactions .

People oftentimes makes mistake on what is a gambler is, some like that guy really think addiction and gambler is the same, which is not, or he doesn't really like to be called a gambler because he or she might be called addicted to gambling,

In my opinion, the are many kinds of gamblers but I am just tackling two

Seasonal gamblers or casual gamblers - I think this type will just play in moderation and this type of gambler doesn't have the desire to win but to just spend quality time with friends while playing a fun game on a casino,

Compulsive gamblers - well this is a disorder that may lead to a person's addiction towards gambling, but they often don't admit that they have addicted to it this kind of gambler doesn't want to stop gambling Chasing the loses that they attain, Compulsive gambling needs professional attention.
Only noobs and losers say that, I'm sorry but if you gamble without having the desire to win, you're not a gambler you're just a customer buying a pleasant moment from a casino. But I think it's a little bit sad to promote a casino in his signature while having such negative thoughts about gambling and casinos. If you don't know how to gamble you should learn, you will find out that you can be a regular gambler without being mentally ill or needing to consult a "professional" as you said. Strangely we never read this kind of words about trading here while it's exactly the same activity at the end.

I don't really think I am saying negative things about gambling but the facts about it, I am just stating two kinds of a gambler because all in all casual and compulsive is what I think needs an introduction, I know I am a  gambler I just play in moderation sometimes when there are sportsbooks that I like, and when it comes to casinos I often play when I only have free bets, But you can say that I surely want to win in gambling, but I am explaining types of gambling that doesn't have the desire to win or just enjoying the bonds with his friends, but I am not including myself to them, because I gamble just to win and earn,

I can say that I can control my playtime and often stay away from gambling when needed, and you are right I am promoting gambling and wearing the signature of stake.com but I am also promoting responsible gambling and always be responsible with your money if you don't have extra money don't make bets at all, always put gambling to the last of what you're going to do, and as I have said always have a responsibility not only to gambling but on your own decision, I surely respect what you are saying and you are right on the part that we can be a regular gambler without being addicted to it.

Maybe yes and no, because even if you are just playing for fun but then at least you have money and time management in gambling and for me that is still part of the gambler but not the addict. But yeah, I guess there's no problem about that whether you're a gambler or not, because the most important thing is to keep having fun from what you're playing and being able to share your experiences here I think that's enough and you don't need to be an addict to have experience.

In my opinion, you should see difference between the fact that someone takes part in a promotional campaign and what that person does on a daily basis. Of course, when it comes to promotional campaigns related to casinos, someone who does it should know about it. However, do you think that a good marketer should deal with only one field, or should he be able to arrange marketing plans in many (many, many) areas?

Being negative on gambling would not do good for the gambling industry and anyone who does have that kind of thought should not promote a gambling site or a casino in his signature as it's contracting to his belief. It's alright to talk about the negative side of gambling, and that is gambling addiction, awareness is very important but it doesn't mean we should hate gambling or avoid gambling to avoid addiction, in the end, it's still ourselves that we should control and if the time comes we know how to control ourselves, we will surely enjoy gambling. again.

If I am a gambler? I'll say No but, I gamble a few times.
You know, the word or name 'gambler' seems to carry a hefty addiction about it that, I feel not just anyone, not because they gamble a few times on a phenomenal bases are qualified to be called a gambler. Some of us just gamble when and if we have to. On this counts, I guess the name or word gambler doesn't apply.

Gambling in itself isn't a bad thing or much of a menace as most persons in the society might consider or look at it but, the intentions for which one gambles is what could make the measure difference. So, while we gamble, we've got to put our heads down, our minds straight and gamble responsibly.

You call yourself a gambler if you embrace what you are doing, it doesn't need you to be addicted to calling yourself a gambler. Just have fun, consider yourself a gambler and you'll enjoy gambling because you know the risk and you know how to discipline yourself.

Also, being a gambler makes it easy for you to share your experience, give suggestions or advice and that will be useful for the forum.

Consider it as your contribution.

People oftentimes makes mistake on what is a gambler is, some like that guy really think addiction and gambler is the same, which is not, or he doesn't really like to be called a gambler because he or she might be called addicted to gambling,

In my opinion, the are many kinds of gamblers but I am just tackling two

Seasonal gamblers or casual gamblers - I think this type will just play in moderation and this type of gambler doesn't have the desire to win but to just spend quality time with friends while playing a fun game on a casino,

Compulsive gamblers - well this is a disorder that may lead to a person's addiction towards gambling, but they often don't admit that they have addicted to it this kind of gambler doesn't want to stop gambling Chasing the loses that they attain, Compulsive gambling needs professional attention.

There are a lot of people posting here. In most of threads related to sportsbetting, most user just discuss about the match, how player performed, how they could perform etc but very few person discuss about odds, chances of winning a team and other factors related to bet.
Is it possible that most people only discuss here to fulfill their signature requirement? In my case, I don’t play games at casino. I used to play back in the day but not anymore while I'm still having sportsbet on most of the matches.
Be honest and share about you whether you post only for your signature requirement or you post because you are involved in gambling & you want to know or share knowledge.

Every few years I get the urge to try my skills at online poker, it usually starts off well with a small deposit - sometimes getting it to 5-10x after many hours of grinding. At that point I feel burned out and usually give back a few big pots, cash out and accept that eventually the sharks out there who have statistically mastered the game will eventually get the better of you. Besides that I have done some "matched betting" which involved risk free bets to unlock cash from welcome bonuses, made a few hundred from that. Now I just stick to the free bets weekly and some daily games that offer small wins - sometimes dropping tiny bets on long shots if I think the odds are decent.

I do not gamble often, just few times in a month, mostly on weekends.
Everyone has a choice and I think you are wise to gamble or not. What I think is that you should not become a gambling addict. It can drain everything you have. Be a smart gambler, have good money and risk management. If you have had that experience, I think it will make you even better. I've also done gambling but it's just for fun, and I'm not addicted.

I consider myself as not even though I have my fair shares of gambling moments where I maxed out my wallet. I just play occasionally when I have some extra money or sometimes when I get bored. I consider it as gambling for fun with hopes of winning. I'm not that into gambling so I do not consider myself as a gambler. But I do gamble with life.  Cheesy
Maybe yes and no, because even if you are just playing for fun but then at least you have money and time management in gambling and for me that is still part of the gambler but not the addict. But yeah, I guess there's no problem about that whether you're a gambler or not, because the most important thing is to keep having fun from what you're playing and being able to share your experiences here I think that's enough and you don't need to be an addict to have experience.

In general, people who play gambling are gamblers, even though playing gambling is not routine. Actually, it's not something to debate whether
we are gamblers or not, because the most important thing is that we are not addicted to gambling. Because if we get addicted to gambling it can
ruin our lives, playing gambling should be as entertainment. So play if there is extra money and can stop if we have experienced a large enough loss.
Don't let us think we can catch up with the losses we experience when playing gambling, this can initially make us addicted.
Maybe it will be okay if we are a gambler because as long as we can control ourselves and not use more money for any reason, we do not have to worry about becoming addicted. But be careful because if we feel we enjoy playing the game, we can tempt to use more money without realizing that we will have a chance to become addicted to gambling if that happens for a long time. We must prevent that by always taking care of ourselves in gambling games and always stopping gambling as soon as possible.
