Topic: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? - page 7. (Read 2919 times)

If someone targets themselves for a certain amount of winnings, this will actually be a thing that will make them an obsessed person and I dare guarantee that they will not enjoy gambling because they are gambling only for the target they want to achieve and of course this is not something good.
Not only about addiction but the risk of losing is getting bigger in this case even though gambling defeat can be said to be one of the things that is certain but when coupled with obsession and profit targets in every gambling that is done this will make them experience greater defeat in terms of the impact produced.

There are very few cases of being able to think freely and escape the narrow area of thinking about winning and losing in gambling, you may be a lucky case, not stuck and free from chaotic thinking in gambling while others still maintain a gambling regimen to this day, I have even seen a few people who have lost count of their failures. Their life is simply that of a person converting their labor into gambling expenses and repeating it every day, I felt that they understood the evil of gambling but the light and a warm embrace to pull them back didn't seem to exist.

Because with that mindset, he will try to achieve victory after victory, which will not be easy to obtain. A wise gambler will not want to take a big risk like that, where the loss will be very large compared to the win. Moreover, he won't know when he can win because he just keeps trying to win. There is a factor of uncertainty about what he will get so he will continue gambling and the winnings he gets may not be too big so he will not be able to achieve his winning target. And that's why gambling is not a source of income because we don't know when to win. So they have to change their mindset and just try to enjoy gambling and stop when they've had enough gambling.

Yes, that's right, when we get angry because we lose it usually makes us deposit more money to play again and again, and when we get more angry we will lose self-control and increase the bet continuously in the hope that one win will return everything, but that is a stupid act and way which is great for spending money faster. I've experienced that, and spent my entire monthly salary in one night, but I've given up and don't want to do it again. This is very bad for me because I don't have any more money until next month. But that's in the past, I don't want to be stuck there

I think that when a gambler has the mindset that he needs to have a winning amount target, he may eventually become addicted. Because we cannot say how much we will win in gambling,  we can experience winning here without knowing when it will happen. That's why most people rely on luck because there is no technique here in playing gambling, so it cannot be considered a source of income because luck is the only reason why we win here as a casino player in gambling.

I agree with the set winning limit target but we should be flexible in our approach and should not be rigid they we will only quit gambling for the day once that target is reached.

Sometimes the luck is not on our side and we loses more games. A gambler should be focused enough to know early that today is not his day, and he should quit gambling before reaching the targets else the chances of making more loss may increase.

Adding on to my previous post as I've often pondered this very question. In my eyes, setting a "winning amount limit" isn't just about discipline, but also about enjoying the experience. Think about it: nabbing your gains when you're up is like respecting the good hand you've been dealt. We all know the thrill of a win, but it's easy to get carried away, thinking the next bet might be even bigger. By setting a limit, we're not just safeguarding our winnings but also savoring the moment. It's a nod to the idea that gambling is, at its heart, about the fun and not just the funds. Always play safe and remember it's okay to walk away when you're ahead.

Yeah, if you set your target to a higher position, chance to lose first before reaching it is very possible, better to keep it low
and make sure that you will add that patience and good judgement when the time is needed for you to stop.

There are many factors that can affect you during your game and having a set target will allow you to enjoy and yet gain decently if
you continually practice and follow your set goals.

Possible to make money and lessen the chance of losing huge amount of money.

Set a higher winning amount for a certain time, isn't a good practice. Cause for that, you need to continuously rollover until reached the milestone which force you to take high risk what causes lose! Better practice is, always set lower your winning amount, keep patient and try to selft control , learn from pasts and then fine go ahead. Moreover, it is better to roll over on few selected game rather than keep playing for hours randomly. Cause thus playing more and more could result lost due to several attemptions of recovery. So i try to follow this rule

Well that's right, everything has its portion and they can earn a living by working like other people in general, well it might look tiring but if you want money then you also have to contribute to the company that pays you. Do not let you become a lazy person who does not want to work but wants to earn income then you reach out to gambling as a diversion for income, obviously that is a very bad assumption. It's true that gambling is just for fun, as I said before everything is created according to its portion and as a reward if you are lucky then you will be able to win, but it's like once in a few tens of tries, it's natural because it's just a prize based on luck. And if then you are still desperate to set the mindset of gambling for income then it can be sure I think not the victory or money you get but even the opposite, namely your finances will be increasingly difficult due to the many defeats there.

Yes, as you said above, it is absolutely true, never rely on income from gambling because the fact is that the bookie will always win not you, your advice is very good by reducing the budget for gambling, it will be very useful so that we are not too bad if we lose. Use the money that you can afford to lose or you will not mind if the money is lost, then think healthily so that if you do lose in the end you will still feel fine there.

But it's not by gambling that we can make money to survive because there are still other ways to make money to survive in this chaotic world. The point is, never rely on winnings from gambling, it will give zero results, the dealer will never lose. So playing wisely is the right solution. Limiting your gambling budget is also very important, but don't limit your winning numbers, it's not really good.

Gambling should only be for fun and not use it as a source of income, every loss we experience should be used as experience so that we can learn to be more responsible in playing gambling, one more thing is always to use a healthy mindset when gambling so as not to target winning, at least we can know when we can stop gambling and withdraw money. 

Well what you say is right my friend, but the main problem is that they always put too much ambition there, like for example they lost and they will try again thinking "hopefully now win to replace yesterday's defeat", they always have assumptions like that but they do it not only once, even every time they gamble and the cycle will continue to fight. Well that's right, I think indeed they should take a short break and think about what exactly is happening to them, doing research is not bad because they also know what is best for them, quitting completely? it's impossible for someone who is already addicted, but yes if they don't want to lose too much there the only way as you said is to increase self-control and limits there.

Honestly I understand they find it difficult not to gamble, but there are other ways that can be done to ease the burden, you can reduce your budget when you want to gamble, lower the nominal bet and increase the rest time is very good. Rather than you continue to be there chasing victory, I'm sure you must be tired of all that and you can try the method as I said above, hopefully you succeed and be consistent.

That's right, what he needs is to learn from his own mistakes and self-control. Whatever he do if he can't control himself from chasing his losses, this mistake will happen again and again. Instead of spending a little money from his income, every money he owns will lose. Most gamblers happen to do this mistake without notice which is easy to say, but it is really hard thing to do.

as @rahmad2nd has said, all of this involves knowledge and of course experience which can provide a very wise mindset as I explained before because for reckless gamblers this scenario will be meaningless because they only think about gambling and winning without thinking about limits losses must be managed before placing a bet and many have become addicted because they ignore limits like this. and for me there is nothing difficult as long as someone has the desire to live a healthy life, I mean keep gambling but do not lose too much money and dont chase wins that exceed the limits that have been determined and the rest has been explained by several people here.

the existence of this thread is to make us all remember that in gambling there is nothing big that we can get and if we want to be healthy gamblers we have to understand that and set limits on our bets, that is the key.

I understand you because we are just human beings living in this messy world where we need to survive every single day, we both know that it's not a realistic move because you ended with nothing but losses but I think, somehow, it's understandable as you're just trying to gamble to have more than your supposed budget. The thing is, we should just learn from our mistakes so that these situations will be avoided in the near future. I mean, at first, it's a mistake but doing it again is already a choice.

Well yes it should be like that, before we play or gamble we should do research first talk to ourselves, do we understand what gambling is and also of course along with the benefits and risks. If your intention is to make a profit by multiplying the capital you bring, I think it's better for you to avoid gambling because it will only make your money disappear just like that, and also obviously I will say like you said, gambling is just a real type of game based on luck, nothing more than that so don't overdo it. Honestly, I don't even see any insight there, it's just a game for your leisure time. Well that's right, so with us knowing that it's just about luck alone you should also go only with the aim of having fun, the various strategies that you bring will have no effect at all there because it's just a matter of how lucky you are, and yes it's true unless it's sports gambling that we can slightly increase the chances of winning by doing some analysis of the development of the club we choose. Honestly, I quite agree with you.

First, the question is, what are we talking about in this gambling. whether a type of game based on luck, or gambling that involves insight, experience, even knowledge. If so, we can think carefully and make a clear plan when we want to gamble. For me there are two scenarios in this discussion, if what I play is a slot game. I don't have a plan or concept when I want to have fun with it, but if the betting is football or sports, I will think carefully and create a clear scenario when I want to gamble.

for example, I will bet on a parlay option, or a single bet. and for sure, there will be scenarios that I have to do first before placing a bet. I mean, to minimize losses, there are several things I have to do. in short, conduct research and analysis. different from other games such as slots, because this game is based purely on luck, I will only play as I am ready to lose. because in the scenario, the probability of winning that I have is lower than the loss that I will receive.

Regarding emotions, this depends on each gambler. It could also be, as you said, that this is related to the character and attitude of each gambler. Well, at first we also did the same thing as you said in the last point. The first time we gamble, we are interested in trying our luck without thinking about the concept or planning something. but gradually, there are those who learn from their experiences and there are many who don't care. The point is, in gambling there are two possibilities, if we don't win it means we lose. The problem is whether we stop it or continue.

Gambling cannot be targeted if winning is just a matter of luck, but sometimes when conditions are not good, you often lose because you are emotional when you do it. However, if you are in good condition and play casually, you won't lose much because you can control your expenses and emotions, so when you gamble, it's better when you are in good condition, rather than when there is a problem, it will cause you to suffer a lot of loss.

This is called revenge gambling where a gambler get emotional on his loss and he injects more money to gamble again with a hope to recover his loss.

In most cases, gamblers loses more money when they play to recover the loses. Lost money in gambling is usually not recoverable. Don't know why gambler's don't realise this and think that they can only make money through gambling.

Correct, depositing more money on your casino wallet after you have lost demonstrates a behavior that is impulsive and myopic, and while I can understand if someone got mad because they lost their money after an unlikely series of events, depositing more money and lose it is not the solution to that loss.

What we need to do is to take some time to think about what happened, sometimes all what we need are a few minutes to calm down and simply accept that what is lost is lost and there is no way to recover it.
