Quote from: Orpichukwu on August 03, 2024, 07:48:54 AM

If there is a chance of getting more, then I will be happy to grab it with less risk, but for the most part, I'm okay with the kind of profit I get with the little I gamble with.

Let's say, for instance, that I make a deposit of $100 into my casino budget account, which is what I expect to gamble with for the rest of the week or probably my monthly budget.

If I can turn that $100 into $150 alone, it's very much okay with me as I don't go for too much, and sometimes I don't even account for any good profit, so the 100% self is a big target for me. Talk more about expecting a 100%.

I guess allt of persons especially those from outside of our country wouldn't understand this but let me take some time to explain with figures just as op already suggested.

now let's say one gambles with $100 which when converted to my local currency gives a roughly figure of about 160k which is already a big amount to gamble with as a typical Nigerian and of having a profit margin of $50 which is roughly 80k in my local currency as return on thr invested capital, then it is said to be a good one for an average gambler and I had to take time to break this down because I totally agree with thr vice of orpichukwu on this very one.

There's no need "we need to understand it better" because it's a personal preference.

If I choose to gamble 5% of my monthly income, but you choose to gamble 20% of your monthly income, it's fine.
If I choose to end my gambling session after reach 100% of my bankroll, but you choose 1000%, it's fine.
If I choose to gamble on sports, but you choose to gamble on slots, it's fine.

Anything is fine as long as you're not get addicted and you didn't harm other people, we're happy with our own choice, so why it matters?

Nice one and Very well, gambling at your lowest percentage of income has a higher level of keeping you at peace with your dealings than spending above the preferred amounts.for me 2% is enough for me to gamble with cause I don't have to regret if definitely I loose in the game.

But what I know is it's all about everyone's choices and decisions,we all have different reasons why we gamble so in that angle it should be fine for those that really want to double the money and like you said it's happier if one don't turn an addict and cause havoc while Gambling which is all that matters.

I am interested to know your personal perspective and experience as well. I understand that as gamblers, we have different financial statuses in life. Some gamble for fun, while others are very serious about it. Can you relate to the question and answer it? How realistic is your target profit when gambling? Are you already happy with a 100% return, or do you want a 1000% return? Please use figures in your explanation so we can understand it better.

I think any thing you invest money and get X2 of your capital is called business while if you want to get X100 of your capital is called Gamble. Gambling can become productive if we remove the idea of being greedy and be comfortable with any amount we win. Like for instance if a gambler stake $200 in sports betting and their target is to get $400 you will see that the risk will be lesser and the chances of winning will be there because all what they need do is to make accumulations that will give like 2 odds which will involve very few events and possible selection of the outcome or just pick up a single event that will have 2 odds unlike someone who stakes with $200 and expects a potential winning of $5000, you will see that they will make a lot of accumulations before they meet up the total odds that will match up with that amount which is unlikely to play accordingly due to the number of accumulated matches. Even though we all complain about how winning in gambling is very complex it is actually because of the greedines of gamblers like they basically want to stake with little amounts and win huge.

Doubling my ten bucks to twenty bucks is something that I'd be happy about. Who doesn't want to double his money as a gambler?
We don't get that often and that's why who am I not to get happy when I'm able to double my money or more than that?
We are no longer kids that are happy for something extravagant, whatever comes to us and make us win is already how not so deep our expectations are and how much we want to win. As long as we're not dwelling in small or huge losses, that satisfies us already.

You are right about that because doubling our money in gambling is difficult so when we can have that chance and winning much money from gambling, that will be the best time for us. We may difficult to meet that moment in the other days so we must appreciate it by withdrawing the money and quit gambling. We need to understand that double our money is difficult so we don't have to continue playing gambling instead just enjoy the win money.

There will be another time for us to win the money but we can not expect that can happens in the near. All people will be happy if they can double their money but the problem is not many people will satisfy with that and many of them will trying to winning more money. That will cause many people lose their money and even their win money will be lost too.

As a gambler the urge of making more money is always there, but one has to realize that you can't make all the money that will satisfy you in a day. I will be fine if I make 100% of my money in a day. Looking for more is like being too greedy, so I will take the one I have made for that day and go home. If I go to a casino with $500 and within few hours I made extra $500 that's amazing. A responsible gambler will take that and go his way. Looking for that 1000% means you will spend more time there and there is a possibility that you will not even get that percentage you are looking for, and the chances of losing your money also set in because there is no guarantee of you making up to 1000% if you keep playing further. That's why I will take the 100% already secured.

Since all strategies do not last for a longer time, I am happy with whatever wins I can get within the timeframe I set for gambling daily or weekly.

There might be opportunities to win more after the first win, but ill rather not risk gambling because there is also an opportunity that i may lose the little wins I had. I purely believe that as a gambler doubling our capital in gambling is a big profit. Imagine betting with 10k dollars and then making 20k dollars in a day. It's pretty much good and should be satisfying to any gambler unless he/she is extremely greedy.

There are many strategies that last a long time. For example, when playing dice, divide your deposit into 100 parts and bet on the odds of 1.1 and after each loss, tenfold the bet. To lose everything, you will have to catch 2 losses in a row, which will take quite a long time. If you apply the same strategy to divide the deposit into 1000 parts, it will take even more time.
Of course, you will lose all your money if you play for a long enough time, but for a fairly significant amount of time (in fact, 99% of the time you will be in a small plus). Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to achieve doubling using such a strategy.

I see the game as entertainment, I can lose a maximum of $100 and I won't go any further. I'm not greedy for a refund. If the game is not going well, it is better to stop.

Gambling is not just for anyhow people that don't know the rules. We keep losing money in gambling because we are never ready to respect and utilize the rules in the way that would be beneficial to us. It is not always a rosy journey that is why we need to be prepared for the sunny day when things might not be going as planned. Once we noticed that we have been making consistent loses, it is better we take a rest rather than trying too hard to get everything back. Things do not always work like this and it is important we keep making adjustments to better benefits from the system.

I don't know your worth but 100 dollars is not small amount compared to my status that why I can't wait to lose the amount before I can stop because to me his very huge to be maximum, I only considered maximum to be like 30-40 dollars because per dollar in my own currency is enough to take care of a plate of food.

$100 is viewed differently for different types of individual because of the country they are living in. I can not lose $100 too because that is a big money in my country, I think people in the United state, UK or Canada can say they will lose that amount but still continue gambling because the money is small. These countries have a high salary and people can make that amount from just doing some grocery store works in a day or week the most if I was to do that same job, it can take me more than one month before I can get paid that amount. As gamblers, we just have to avoid being greedy and we would not be losing soo much when gambling. I can not say an exact amount that is okay to use in gambling so that when you double it, you should stop but everyone should do what is best for their money.

As much as I know that many people want to gamble for money but will say they are gambling for fun, I will say confidently that I gamble for the money, if I want to have fun I know exactly spot to do that. There is no fun in gambling to be honest but there is fun that comes with you are winning the money and I'm happy with whatever I get as long as I don't lose my stake or wager, to win and minimize loss isn't what we all want in the first place.

The main objective of gambling is to win and making money, that is the fun of it and if you can make it, then it's justified that you are not losing any of it. If I can double it, I will be happy and if I can make more, I will gladly take it. It's only loss I wouldn't tolerate at all.

Are you already happy if you can double your money, or do you want more? The answer for this question might different from one to another person but for me if you ask that I would answer that I already happy if my money double like x2 from initial investment but as a human sometimes we never feel enough and want more and more but the keys today is after I win x2 Im gonna take profit the initial investment and rerool the game hahahh because sometimes greed is entering body and want more and more

That is a very good approach which I think is a good one when you are playing slot machines.Anytime someone makes x2 of his bankroll should withdraw the original deposit and continue to play with the winning amount.I also think that this is a good strategy to be used also when playing Poker for example.However I also think that the human nature is never satisfied with double their investment and they want more,personally I am not happy with just double of my deposit as when I start to play surely my objective is to hit a massive win like a big max win in my favorite slot.Anybody has his own objectives but I can confidently say that most gamblers are never happy with doubling their investment as surely that is not their original objective when they start playing.

It seems like you have a very good sense of gambling and if you gamble with some techniques, your 100$ amount may last for a long time. As a tip, better to plan as how much you will gamble with in each game. If you spend only one dollar per game, you will have 100 games to play. It is sure that you won't lose all 100 games. Even if you win half of the games you will be accumulating money while winning and losing and i think since you have already accessed the maximum loss, you will always be entertained. Wink

My priority is not to lose a lot of money and I am happy, making my money 2x in gambling is a bonus for me.

Do you know what often makes us end up with big regret?
That's because of "Greed"

I several times made that mistake, by not feeling satisfied, because of greed, and finally experienced a big loss. and that's when I started to manage my own risk.

I'm enough with my first target to take the gains or profits, even if it is a double return, it's enough for me, rather than being greedy to get double again but high risk. I'm happy with that.

Nobody will be angry with 100% return.of their gambling games. Even those who gamble for fun will not like to lose and they are happy which is the fun will be interesting when they win. And if they lose that fun will not be there. And I think this has been said in many times. And every gambler target at winning big and not to lose. 1000% return will be too greedy and 100% is okay. If a gambler used $100 to gamble though all depends on the game and the casino in sport bet the gambler can win up to $2,000 or more but in spin or slot games it will be $300 that even you have lucky.

It all depends on the bet size. If you got x2 but it's still beer money, then you're unlikely to have experienced adrenaline while the event was happening (and the outcome was unclear), although a small win is also psychologically pleasant.
Another thing is if it is a big bet - the winnings will also be big. If you made x10 with beer money, then this is also a cool event and you will definitely remember it (will receive positive emotions) for some time. In general, the more winnings in specific money, the better, percentages do not matter.

Everything will depend on the amount we want to double, if it is only 100 dollars, then it is clear that this is too small an amount, but if it is several tens of thousands, then this changes everything and doubling such an amount would be enough for me to be satisfied and want to withdraw the profit. But the problem is that I am not so good at gambling to play for such a large amount of money, so simply doubling cannot be the main goal, although this is also not as easy as it may seem at first glance.

What happens most times is that you might be playing the wrong games and this is the reason you think you are not good at gambling. Have you tried playing only luck based games and not skilled based games like sports and poker. Try this different types of games and you might find something you are good at because gambling is for everyone, there is no specific people that are created to gamble. Gambling is more than just doubling our capital, gambling should be fun and not all about money because when we make gambling all about money, it can cause us to do things we are not supposed to do and we end up losing money. Most people chase after the profits but only get losses because they do not have the right mindset of a gambler. Gambling should be done for fun and when we get profits we use it wisely.

It practically described my gambling history. I had a similar case: a long time ago I received a promo code for slots and it included several spins with a bet of 20 cents (I think it's not a small amount). I spine it all, and after several small wins, I eventually zeroed out my deposit. I feel my self like a real looser.
And this story repeated itself many times, after which I finally became disillusioned with slots.

But isn't all that natural human attitude that can't have little satisfaction with what is obtained and is always greedy in anything, only people who can think well and responsibly are able to control all of these attitudes.
Basically, if we talk specifically about gambler, it is natural that most of them are still pursuing bigger win even though they have received several wins that are quite worthy to be accepted.
It will be difficult to stop when you still see very good opportunity, these gamblers will feel adrenaline and great desire to take advantage of the opportunity again and be able to achieve more wins.

I think only few gamblers are able to accept victory without having to have the desire to get bigger win, if look at the percentage, maybe only 10% or 20% of the total all gamblers.

I agree with that, indeed it is a natural attitude that must exist in every human being, but that does not mean this cannot be changed or improved. I think this can be changed but it takes a long time to process, we know that everyone's character is different so there must be someone who is stubborn but can still be helped to improve his attitude and maybe there are people who are really stubborn with irreparable other than that everyone must want to have a lot of money or want to get a profit so it is natural when many people want more than what has been obtained, it's just that the risks must be great and sometimes those who are stubborn tend to ignore the risks and this is actually what must be addressed.

It is true that you say that maybe only a few gamblers can accept the winnings that have been obtained by not having the desire to get more, so that is why it is important to realize that the risk opportunities are greater than the benefits.
We must be able to control ourselves when we win, so the real gambling winners are those who can control themselves well whether they lose or win.
