I experienced this in lottery games. I quit playing since I cannot afford to lose over and over again. I need to save money instead of using it into gambling. The salary I got from my day job was just wasted on gambling during that time. I only got small savings for my daily needs. I might gamble back but with caution.

It's a good decision to quit gambling at the start when you realise that you don't want to lose money anymore. It's a good thing you noticed, and you wake up early rather than sinking yourself into stuff you know you can't afford. As you say, you only use your salary to fund your gambling. I advised that if you think you will not win in that game or if you know that it will not be a good path, then I suggest you don't come back again in that game. If you really want to gamble, maybe find another game that suits you. Lottery games only rely on luck, so you never know when you will win. You might win, but it may cost you a lot, which is not good. So I think you better find another game and, of course, prepare capital that you can afford to lose.

It is hard to change the games that you've been gambling on for several years. Like it's already on your daily routine or if you don't gamble a lot, that only means that you've been stuck on it and not willing to leave that game for so long. That's the reason why those games that I like I only gamble on, sometimes I try to gamble on games that I don't usually go on but they're not interesting to me because I just don't like the mechanics of the game and the game itself. That is the reason for those sportsbetting like basketball and boxing, these are like the main sports of the majority here in our country so it's like part of the culture already.

Yeah, that's partly how addiction is formed.

You start with something new, you like it, and then you continue doing it.

At some point it becomes your new normal, and actually not doing it feels wrong or negative. Then the withdrawal stage starts until you get a new normal again.

Behaviors can be as addictive as drugs.

I have always been a lover of sports and I mean football, both playing and betting. I've been actively betting in soccer ever since 2014. I bet on live games, bookings and viral soccer. However, in 2018, I decided to stop betting on virtual games because it  drains funds faster, like I lost hundreds of thousands of Naira in just one week and the more I lost, the more I was desperate to recover, leading to more loss as that was a bad day for me.
After virtual games humiliated me, I swore allegiance to bookings only and since then, I've had more peace with my betting life.

Did you stop playing virtual betting and move over to another form of betting? As it appears to me, leaving one's favourite game is really not an easy thing to do, but virtual is out of the uestion.
 
It has been proven that virtual is not the worst game one can get addicted to in a physical gambling shop. Things happen over there, and within a matter of 30 minutes, if you are constantly placing bets, you could be able to conclude 3-5 bet slips, and if the games did not play in your favour, you are counting losses in five different games.

Sometimes it appears that it's the fastest means of winning and doubling your earnings in a short period of time, which makes people always want to try it out, but it always turns out to be the opposite at the end, as most people always realize they have lost more than they planned to play with without even realizing it.

Yeah, they're still the games that I play because I am familiar with them.

A lot of people I've seen do the same thing, they try to buy as many tickets as possible thinking that it may increase their chances of winning but when something is totally based on luck, there is no point in doing that. Just buy a small number of tickets and wait for the results to see if your luck worked or not.
It's a strategy and I always see people do that within the lotteries that I used to see with the directions that I am going. Those that are buying as many as they can thinking that they'll have more chances to hit some jackpots.

Not just jackpots though but also good amount of winnings. Some are successful in winning but most of them are not.

In general, I almost like types of gambling games, both previous and current era games. In the past, gambling was not as sophisticated and popular in the era of sophisticated internet technology as it is today. I have almost tried many games, but the ones I like the most are Baccarat and Texas hold'em Poker type games, apart from football betting which is always a favorite. Of the two types of gambling that I like, for me Baccarat is a game that can get a quick win in one shot.
Actually, it's not much different from Poker, but Baccarat is a short game between Banker and Player or other options. Usually, people who like this type of game always use the martingale technique. However, it doesn't have to be every game that we have to fold I mean, this technique is combined with the situation and the game. At first I started to like it, this type of game makes it easy to make a profit. Unmitigated, I have made huge profits from my version. Unfortunately, the more I like it, I lose more than I win. and finally, just playing Poker.

The difference is, this type of game sometimes takes up a lot of our time. which in the end, I often neglect responsibility. "Please understand that at that time I was relatively young." which ended up affecting my other activities. starting from messy jobs, complicated relationships, and all kinds of things. At a certain stage, I left gambling for quite a long time. In short, we are in the crypto casino community, fortunately my understanding of gambling has broadened. and, finding the definition of gambling for me personally. and currently, there are only two gambling games that I usually play. one of them is a slot machine, but it depends on my mood.

Well, the bet that I haven't left behind until now is football. Luckily, I understand a little about what football is, and everything related to it. for me, it is quite entertaining and sometimes gives decent results although not every session. yes, let's just enjoy it, with the idea of ​​entertainment, nothing more than that.

Who spends their whole salary on lottery tickets, man? I know that people sometimes gamble and get carried away while doing that and spend more money than they were planning to spend, but lotteries are a bit different, the odds or the probability of winning are usually too low no matter how many tickets you buy, you obviously can't buy half of the tickets. So, what's advisable is to only buy a small number of tickets and try your luck in the lottery because if you are lucky, you will win it even with a few tickets, and if you aren't, even a million tickets won't make you win.

It’s hard for the gambler like this to spend the full money in the gambling sites.Not even the gambling addicted person will do this type of all the income to the lottery game.The important reason was the gambler should need of the money for their next day meals.If all the full money to the gambling sites and loss the money leads to the big loss for the gambler in the lottery.The lottery was the ancient gambling game and used by the most of the old age gambler because of the addiction to the lottery as compared to the other game in the gambling.The lottery is based on the random number generation for every user,using the random number the person winning will be announced.

Is it the game you started playing as a gambler that you still play till now? Is there any gambler in this place who was used to playing a particular game before but never was successful winning or did not win enough and then made up their mind that it was time for a change in the game you gamble on. Which game did you change from, and what did you change to? how long did you play the game that you are deciding to stop playing because of the bad outcomes?

I started playing sports betting many years ago, and it's still one of my favorite games to this day. However, there have been times when I felt like I needed a change of game. I tried with other games, such as poker and roulette, to see if I could find something that suited me better. While I did enjoy those games, I always found myself coming back to sports betting.

There are times that we get bored especially if we always do such activities just like what we do on sports betting that's why we choose to play on another type of game to ease our boredom and this is normal activity done by anyone since not all gamblers can able to stick on one option only. Maybe other people bet on single type of betting when they are new but once they discover that there are so many options for them to have fun especially when there's no big event on their main site they are betting on for sure they will explore and try to participate especially if there's a running contest and prize set or given to their potential winners is huge. I also play poker on some site but usually I always kill my time on slot games since for me this is more entertaining to play.
This isnt really just talking on sports betting but also in other things that we're involved into whether on gambling or with those typical activities that we are really that been doing.There are really indeed moments on which boredom would hit on which changes would really be there and it would really be that depending on someones interest because not all would really be that having on the same choices when it comes to things.For me then it would really be depending or basing up with your mood because it is really just that a normal reaction for someone to do repeatedly doing things which you would really be having those kind of times that you do get used up to it or really that boredom hits you which it is normal that you would be finding for something new.

Basing up on my experience towards gambling then there are lots of games which i had tried already which from casino based games until to card games until to sports betting and vice versa.
As long i do have the money and im on the mood then selection of games would really be entirely be depending on your preference on that certain
point of time thats why it would really vary on this case.

I remember when I used to play dice to increase my account bet and lost certain amount of money without any return.
This was ridiculous experience and one I would never repeat again.
Yes, I have also already tried doing this through dice game to increase wagered amount on my account to reach further ranks on the casino and have access to higher benefits, especially superior rakeback, but it ended that the risk you have to take to increase your account's rank doesn't worth the return... It's better to gamble normally without focusing on wagering goals, so you won't lose considerable amounts on money in vain, rather you will build your account within time, reaching further ranks progressively.

Some people prefer doing minimal bets in order to progress their wagering requirements, however it demands a long time which also doesn't worth in my opinion.
It is likely that the only time it makes sense to try to rush to move up a rank, in terms of the benefits that you can receive out of a casino, is when you know great bonuses are about to come and you are close to reach a level which will allow you to receive those bonuses.

But other than we need to ignore trying to rush our way through the ranks, as if you like to gamble then you will eventually reach your appropriate rank, and even if the bonuses could be on the small side, this is way better than gambling more money than what you can afford to lose.
I've been around the block a few times and have witnessed individuals, fine people, fall victim to the temptation of those glittering casino ranks. You are entirely correct. Sure, maybe, just maybe, it makes sense to push a little if there's a big, massive bonus on the horizon and you're just a hair's breadth away from attaining that rank. The only condition is that you must be certain, totally certain, of those incentives

But let me tell you something, rushing through ranks? Absolutely not a good idea. You'll reach your rank if you really, truly, love to gamble. You'll do. It must happen. And those bonuses? Even if they are minor, negligible things, they are still preferable than going bankrupt. Always keep in mind that playing smartly is more important than climbing quickly. Never, ever gamble irresponsibly. Spend only what you can afford to. It is very, very simple

I have been playing dice since 2015 and have tried several games to see if my luck will be there and probably stay on that, but my luck in other games is even worse compared to dice. That's why I keep on coming back. Also, I have experienced winning decently before in dice, so I'll just persist until I win a significant amount again.
I also started gambling with dice games but to be honest it was a bit boring when I experienced a losing streak when using the martingale strategy technique and that caused me to change to trying other games such as Limbo and Crash, actually there are lots of fun casino games besides dice and you might want to try them. occasionally so you can get other luck in the game, but it all comes back to you, the point is don't focus too much on one game

At least you have the opportunity to get lucky in other games, I know that you may find dice games more fun because you can use strategy and don't rely on luck, unlike slot games which many gamblers have played recently, you have a strong commitment to playing that dice game so you still want to go back to playing that game, but my advice is to try other games that might also please you, there's no harm in trying.  Grin
Starting with dice games is a popular way to get into the hobby, but sticking with one game over and over again can get old. For example, the martingale approach seems easy at first, but for many people it turns out to be unsafe. What is the minimum number of losses one must experience before spreading out? Many other games are available, such as Limbo and Crash, each with its own rules and tactics. Why put limits on oneself?

I can see why strategy can be appealing when playing dice, but its a mistake to think that strategy means definitely winning. Meanwhile, slot games have recently become very popular, even though they are very random. Why? As a result, they provide a special thrill. If you love dice games, try venturing out of your comfort zone every once in a while. You might be surprised. As the saying goes, life is all about trying new things and enjoying different tastes.

Dice, Poker, and BlackJack. While I had my wins, I pretty much sucked at poker and blackjack. Dice was, well, just pure unlucky. I tended to go insane with bots back then with Dice and they never really went above the normal win/loss ratio, with losses being a bit more than wins. I've also tried increasing the odds cause I wanted to hit it big a few times, boy did I lose money real quickly instead. I switched it up to Crash nowadays, fell in love with it when I saw how it worked and it's mechanics. While it wasn't all wins, it's a lot better since I enjoy it regardless of it's simplicity.

There weren't many gambling sites that I first knew and bet on there, I can count them, only 5 gambling sites that I still use to bet on now. but only three are the most active.

There is something interesting about the online casinos that I know and play at, they always bring out various kinds of new games that are fun and worth playing, but all the gambling sites that I register and play on all have sports/soccer betting, because lately I rarely gamble on types of games such as slots and others, for that reason I only focus on one game, namely sports.

Thus, for now there is no intention to stop, because football every day there are updates in every league that is played, so it only changes from other games to sports, I mean focusing on just one game, namely sports.

Mine was from Crash games to dice, I lost a lot of money before I realized that I had to look for other games that I could also enjoy and at the same time had a chance of winning so I could maintain my bankroll and extend my session.

And that's a good decision on my part, sometimes losing a lot or having a long losing streak is not good, we know that there is such a thing as a house edge but not to the point that you will have a long stretch of losing.

Playing is good and fun but it will take out the fun if you feel that you are so unlucky that you cannot come out even with a single win and that's something I felt when I concentrate on playing Crash only.

Moving from one gambling game to another doesn't surety that you will make wins in the new game you have chosen to gamble, you just got to device a dissimilar way of playing the game while you commune for your luck to shine brightest. If we're changing to a new game for derivation of a different taste of fun it's understandable but if we are doing so because we are not getting streaks of win then we're doing that to a fault as the results will be same.

We can move from one casino or sportbetting site to another if we suspect a fishy and lack of integrity in the services provided it is necessary and reasonable to leave for a new one.

When I started gambling online, it is the game "Crash" that I loved. Why? It's because it is you who controls the game. If you can control your greed and cash out at the right time then you will probably be a big winner there. It is a hard task to do that if you see how much multis it could give sometimes. x2000 was the highest I have seen but I cashed out early.
Now, I am not playing the game anymore just for the reason that you will need to be active to create profits in it. Leaving it with automatic cash out is not a good idea, in my opinion.
I have never came back to the game yet, I think it's just too much of a hassle for me unlike before when I was excited to play the game.
I once played Crash and it really made greed come early when I saw a big payoff. But I delayed taking advantage several times which caused me to lose the money. Playing Crash requires better self-control to stop the game in time and take advantage. And because at that time, I was still often losing at Crash, in the end, I moved to other gambling games and got bored because I often lost.

Maybe I'll play Crash again another day, but really, playing Crash requires self-control so you can stop on time. Only people who can do it can get high profits.
Yep, that's correct and this is the reason why it's difficult to go back on that game. It's not like anyone can survive there when they play continuously unlike other games like Keno, Dice, and Plinko. Most of the players that I see in Crash are one-time bets at a big amount. I don't do that. I like playing small amounts even if takes a long time as long as it's on an automated feature. Chasing the jackpot, that's my goal for now. The Jackpot in Crash takes a long time before it comes out. I saw multi-wins there before like x2000 and x3000 but I got so scared that it might crash so I only took x200 on that. Decent but I was not able to maximize the winning chance. Unlike when we play Plinko, it's based on luck where the ball could fall in multi-wins anytime and I think that's also the reason why I switched to those types of games rather than in Crash where we have no idea when it will stop.

Sport betting has been my favorite since I started betting and I don't think I will consider switching to other aspects of betting now or anytime soon. I attempted other games like aviator and the likes but I don't see myself doing well in it and I abandoned it to continue with sports betting. I actually enjoy spending time on aviator either playing or trying to observe how the whole system work so I can find a way to take the advantage but in the end, I realized that there's no strategy of winning in aviator because even after applying all I think is the way, I will still get hit by them until I finally stay away from it. Sport betting to me is the most simplest form gambling that winning is much more guaranteed compared to others due to it predictability. Sports betting can definitely be a fun and exciting way to make money. Though, It's important to remember that just like any other type of gambling, sport betting is not completely risk free.
