Topic: Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling (Read 3586 times)

By the way, this is accurate.  
Quite often, after some break in gambling in some well-known casino, probably caused by ordinary everyday circumstances, even an experienced old player returns to the game and does not even remember that the conditions and individual rules in ToS during this time could have changed significantly.  As a result, such carelessness can present an unexpected and unpleasant surprise.  
The experience of many players, I think, clearly tells us that in matters that relate to money or cryptocurrencies over time, nothing good ever happens directly for the user, the player.  These changes are always directed against the player and his usual and familiar knowledge of the rules.  
This, of course, is most associated with the tightening of financial laws and the tightening of control over money among the population around the world.  We all see very well how the attack on the anonymity of payments is underway through the introduction of KYC everywhere.  This, in my opinion, is a completely wrong step in the development of civilization.  
Moreover, I think that none of us in the future expects the requirements for control over our finances to be relaxed.  Everyone is only waiting for these requirements to become stricter.  And this is bad, this is a modern version of the onset of financial enslavement of people.  
This is the road in the development of civilization in the opposite direction.  
This is the way back to the slave system.

Beginners who don't understand the terms and conditions of casinos usually always ignore the terms at the beginning before starting a gambling game, because maybe they are lazy to read and the most important thing for them is just being able to get a bonus or voucher at a casino that is carrying out promotions so they just want to gamble and hope for money the freebies can be doubled so that you don't need capital or spend a lot of money to gamble, even though in casino bonuses there are certain requirements. Even if you win, you can't withdraw it straight away because the bonus is only prepared by the casino to lure you into continuing to gamble and hopes that you will spend money to deposit and continue gambling games on the site.

Yes, old gamblers are also like that because they feel they don't need to read the terms because they think the casino terms remain the same so they ignore them even we have a bad experience due to not reading the gambling terms, before gambling on a new site we should analyze them first so that we don't have another bad experience happened while gambling.

or maybe not just chasing losses but instead chasing winning? because sometimes even when they are already at win , yet they  dont wanna stop and continues looking for more winning.
then that is the reason why as of going home with money? they lose constantly and zero balance when stand up in their table.
so lets not always blame the chasing losses but instead chasing more and more wins.
and that is why addiction comes net to them.

everything will be bad if it is done excessively, such as gambling which has a bad impact if you cannot control yourself in a disciplined manner so as not to make mistakes which result in gamblers having a negative impact on their gambling.
I fully support what you say it all comes back to the gambler's mindset, whether they want to get lost in the world of gambling and find it difficult to get out of the addiction zone or just want to enjoy gambling safely and comfortably. if it is the second option that they think is better, of course they will always be able to control their minds to understand that gambling is just a moment of fun that does not need to be taken seriously like making money because gambling is not how it works and a gambler who can understand how gambling works will definitely always have a positive mindset that will continue to gamble safely and comfortably.

all of this is just about how easy it is or how difficult it is for someone to understand gambling and if a gambler is able to understand more deeply how gambling works they will certainly have whatever limits it may have to be able to maintain strong control not to pursue anything that can have the impact of addiction and for gamblers who just thinking instantly about gambling they will fail to understand how gambling works and will never be able to gamble safely.

A gambler who has gambled too often will not want to listen to advice from other people because they think they can still gamble safely and control themselves. They also don't want to learn from other people's mistakes so that they may experience problems more often than other people. Their ego may be higher than others because they cannot be careful when gambling and only want to win. That's what makes them experience even greater difficulties than other people. This is what we have to avoid so that we don't experience the same thing as him and can enjoy gambling well and not lose a lot of money. But we are the ones who often complicate our lives so that we experience problems.

Sometimes, it's really us who make our lives much harder than it should be. Some players have this kind of mindset that they keep on being stubborn because they haven't experienced bad thing yet. Instead of learning from the mistakes of other people, they rather experience it first-hand to know the harsh reality. Perhaps it's really a matter of perspective and how discipline you are. Some have an attitude problem which makes their ego their priority instead of what's practical. So they take things on their own way which turns out to be difficult and wrong in some ways. They'll only listen once something happened, but by then, you can no longer turn back time, so regret and wishful thinking is often present after the worse events. So it's really on you if you want to make it easier or you want to suffer in gambling.

If you use large, trusted and reputable casino, you will never have any problems because all the team at the casino will always prioritize the service and comfort of all their customers.
What more, if you never break the rules then no problems, no matter how small, will occur.
So far I have never encountered any problems that made it difficult or disappointed me with the mainstay gambling site that I always use.
But adding the step of activating 2FA also doesn't hurt because this will make you more confident that you can get all the security properly when gambling or using the site.

A gambler who is greedy and has the ambition to make money will never care about any warnings because they will only do whatever he thinks is right, he does not consider any warnings even though they are warnings that might be good for him to listen to.
Facing gambler attitude like this, it is much better to just leave it alone and wait for him to have problem that is difficult to solve until he regrets it.
That way his mind can return to normal and he will try to do things that are much better for himself.

I also think that this invention called 2FA is overkill when it comes to gambling for some relatively small amounts of money, which ordinary gamblers consider as normal expenses. 
Perhaps such protection makes sense for some people who are very concerned about their security beyond reasonable limits, but I think that, for example, in my case, using 2FA will only create unnecessary actions and at the same time the additional security guaranntees that it provides have practically no effect  no meaning useful to me.  And also, when using 2FA, do not forget that you are providing unnecessary additional information about yourself to unknown people. 
And as you know, all information leaked onto the network is potentially not stored securely enough and may well be stolen, hacked by a hacker and sent to public access.  And it is unknown how and who can use them. 

So I consider 2FA unnecessary for ordinary everyday gamblers.

        -  Almost everything the OP mate said is correct; maybe what I haven't tried there is to activate 2FA in a casino. But so far, I haven't encountered any problems at the casinos I play at.

But I also just noticed that when a gambler has greed in his character, for sure the reminders that Op said will all be ignored because what is in mind is to accumulate a lot of money in the casino here in the crypto space.

Indeed, sometimes beginners always ignore the terms and conditions of the casino because for them getting a bonus is free money that they can play with after winning and then withdraw, that is a mistake so there are often many negative accusations at the casino that are thrown by beginners because of their ignorance. about the terms and conditions that should be read to get the bonus fully.

For me it is normal to make mistakes like this, after all this often happens to us old gamblers too, I'm sure not many of us read the casino terms and conditions which are quite long sometimes making us lazy to read them so that experience is what makes us come to know and finally tell beginners to want to read it and I'm sure in the end they know not because they read it but because of their experience. 

To my great regret, during all the time I used various applications, and not only the sites of different casinos, but also other applications, for example, various financial applications such as wallets, in about half of the cases the changes that the devs made were either not particularly necessary, or  generally worsened the consumer properties of this site.  For example, such a change as the introduction of mandatory identity verification under the KYC procedure where payments in cryptocurrency are used exclusively.  It is  clear that this is caused by changes in legislation, but this has clearly worsened the consumer properties of such casinos.  And there are quite a lot of changes that do not improve sites, but rather create unnecessary complications for the player. 
Basically, of course, casinos comply with the requirements of regulators, but in any case this is a deterioration in the consumer properties of this service. 
And by and large, this can even be said to be a deterioration of human rights.

yeah right, things that gamblers assume which let the trust to site as they use it as the main access to play games, that's really something which creates doubt when gambler starts to think that they are recieving unfair treatment, I like the way you pointed it out and it's true that there's changes that happen from time to time so better to make sure that you are not assuming but you are taking your time to read and understand what things are behind the bonuses and promotions casino are offerings.

It's easy for them to make you feel comfortable so it's better to keep an eye and always be updated.

This is a very good compilation but unfortunately, OP has not logged in for 2 months already, the thread is updateable for new guides being recommended by the community but since he is nowhere there is no more to add to these guidelines, threads like this should be created by high rank members or someone who is actively posting here and will likely stay, hopefully, he will log in again and update this thread for additional guidelines about gambling.

And while gamblers should read the TOS, the changes on the TOS that happens from time to time and the conditions set forth by casinos on the bonuses they give, the reality of the situation is that this is something that hardly happens, as people in general seem to have an aversion to read that kind of document and instead they prefer to simply assume that the casino will abide to their own common sense when taking decisions, a big mistake without a doubt.

Yeah the exciting part may be altered as instead of trying to enjoy the game there's a kind of urgency which you may feel each time you place your bet, as you are aiming to meet the criteria and you wanted to make a good use of the bonus trying to collect that money out from your balance, with that kind of pressure most of the time you are going to deliberately place a bet to acheived the wagering requirements and keep focusing with how you will reached it.

Reading is essential especially if you are only aiming to have some fun and not really after the money that you can possibly take.

Before register to the gambling site should check the website is good or bad,because the gambling site which had less bankroll try to get the gambler money to their site by announce of the more bonus compared to the reputed gambling site.So the gambler should not get into the web of the scam gambling sites.The money of ours was more important one compared to the bonus we are getting from the gambling site.I had not mean all the gambling sites doing this,only few sites and we need to check the background of gambling sites.So only by the background check we can come to know more about the gambling sites.The experienced gambler will do check of the gambling sites before using their real money to that gambling sites.Every gambler should check the gambling sites which give bonus.

Only newbies would really be falling out with this kind of mistake on which they would really be eagerly trying out to get those bonuses without even trying to read up those terms and conditions
until they would be able to experience some problems when it comes to withdrawal or would really be making out those questions on how the heck they cant really be able to withdraw?
They would really be just look like clowns on the time that they would really be making out some complaints just because they do make use of bonuses but expecting that they could easily
withdraw which is really that laughable.

This is why it would really be that important that you should really be wary about casinos terms and conditions on whatever they are offering because it would really be just
that so normal that they would really be setting one because they cant really just give out bonuses or free money easily without a catch.
So expect that there would really be those requirements before you could be able to make some withdrawal.

Before accepting any promotion or bonus gamblers really need to read the conditions set forth by the casino, and if they think the conditions are too difficult to fulfill then it is better for them to not accept the bonus and to just keep gambling as usual, as I think we all have at some point accepted a bonus before without reading the conditions and then we had to dramatically alter the way we gamble just to have a chance of clearing the conditions of the bonus, and even if you did I find difficult to believe you will be satisfied with it as most of the fun you could have gotten would have been replaced instead by a sense of urgency.

Out of greed you will forget to read the condition behind that bonus, it's a great tactic that the casino mostly use to allure their players, who would not bite that promotion right, thinking that by luck it will be an easy money to take away after you wager, but in reality it's a big trap to your money, you can't get anything unless you'll risk and reach the wagering requirements, which is really hard if you are not good in controlling yourself and your emotions while playing.

When I was new and made account in greed of 200% bonus, I was thinking that I will get 2x me money after depositing. but after depositing i knew that i need to wager 15x times, then I will able to collect the bonus,
because of this i took big bets and after some days made my balance 0, after that I deposit more and lost that too,
after losing I learned the lesson hard way. and now telling people to stop gambling if they are not responsible.
