Here are my guidelines on how you control your temper when you are gambling. This will help you a lot to not be addicted in gambling.
1. If you are playing gambling set a goal or a profit goal so that you will not be greedy at the end. Greediness turn you to be a loser.
2. Playing twice a week or thrice week makes you feell better and lucky because you are in the greedy mode.
3. Small amount of capital in the game which play bombs like satoshimine makes you in a chance of winning because it is easy to double your money into that game.
4. High amount of capital in the dice makes you advantage note that your initial is his your house makes it sufficient to win the game.

1. Not only set a goal for profit, but also set a "goal" for loss. If you hit a certain loss, you should stop and not try to win your losses back.
2. It is all about luck, limiting your playing will not make you feel better or more lucky. I do think it is good to limit the amount you play to protect yourself.
3. The size of the bet does not matter, it is all about scaling your bets to your total bankroll. Never bet too big a % of your total bankroll.
4. The total size of your bankroll does not increase your odds of winning. The only time you have an advantage is if when you win big early on and decide to call it a day.

I have had a similar problem when I gamble, the want to bet more despite losing money on a gamble.

I just block the site using a blocker as soon as I am done hitting my goal on the amount wagered on any site. Another thing I would suggest is to block away the rest of your btc for extended hours to not impulsively get that introduced into betting.

Your solution was quite good but also not that easy tho. Because here we are talking about controlling our temper during the game so basically blocking would varies only after winning your desired amount right? How about if we are going to lose

I think whether you win or lose money in gambling, you should fix some amount for the day to gamble then it is easy to control your funds otherwise you may overspend due to greediness. In this way you can control you daily spending for gambling.

Your guidelines are good I think, people should be carful with gambling. When ever we lose temper, and that happen in the game, we start to force and push and that often finish with lose. 4 easy steps to not get addicted and lose too much.
First step is smart one, setting a goal can make you gambling more profitable. Greediness is the number one reason why we lose money on gambling. Playing couple time per week is also good, we forget about time while we play, so with limiting the time, we limit how much money we can spent on gambling. Small amounts of capital, or better to say everyone should play with maximum 10 % of capital they have. In that way we can try something more then once, with that we get more chances to win something.

yeah it is really hard to control yourself, especially when you are winning you want to play more and more

Self-controlling is not the only problem while winning but also while losing many people want to recover their lost money as soon as possible so they will play with more and more money until they lose everything they have in hand. So self-controlling is a very big challenge for all gamblers.

My advice for people who want to gamble but have problems controlling their temper is just to avoid it. Let's face it, gambling is not for you and you would be losing your sanity by doing it and then losing your money. Where is the fun in that?

I was an avid poker player back in 2006 and ended up quitting back in 2012. That final year was brutal. I kept losing and I wasn't having fun with the game anymore, and the money started to matter a lot. If you feel and see those signs are showing when you gamble, just quit and stay away from for a while.

Based on the experience that I had when someone wins in gambling even one time he will come back again to gamble
They are just imagining the win if the loser will try again with the same expectations "win" Cheesy

I'm not so sure there is a way to control the temper when gambling the best way is to go away from gambling

its a very good guidelines, its really important to control your emotion and your ego in gambling, if you are unable to control it, its better to stop gambling or you will become bankrupt, setting a limit is the most important things in gambling, and play gambling for fun when you start gambling just consider you already lose your money, so you wont stress out when you lost

I do tend to rage hard when I gamble alot and lose.
I punch the laptop monitor thinking it will help the wager go my way but it doesn't.
I should really stop because I tend to also rip out my hair when I getting close to losing and I am thinking if I continue that I will be bald very soon. Lips sealed

Better to set goals for both profit and loss as its also better to leave gambling when you reach the loss level you are comfortable of lossing.

There's a rule of drug addiction that says if you have to control it, it's already out of control. If you have to do these steps here, you're basically bailing water out of the Titanic with a spoon. But hey, good luck. Maybe you'll be the one who proves that mathematics is a bunch of crap.

You cannot abstain from passing the profit limit you wanted to reach every week. Also, what are you going to do if you're going to lose all? You never know when this happens. If you set a 1BTC/week limit, you will ALWAYS want more than that for different reasons. You better just limit the amount you play with. I mean STRICTLY limit it.

Planning doesn't works, i have gambled plenty of times with a plan but in the end i lost. when you start losing you want to get right back up to profit no matter what, so you'll start betting higher amount and lose all your bankroll. just gamble with small amount and enjoy your gambling session.

From my opinion never get greedy because gambling is not to become rich in a day, if we don't have any control over our emotion than we have no life and no space in gambling.

I am playing with very hard limit as I know this very well there is no chance to get recover if lost because of our mistake, so that I had a lesson after losing a big amount when I was greedy in past, now I am very responsible with gambling and playing a amount with daily limit.

I don't have for what to disagree whatever you wrote. The problem is other as all these rules are good for theory but on practical grounds you forget every pre-determined plan or strategies under extreme situations both when you are keep winning or loosing you desperately play. You can have control most of the times but when needs of it there we loose control.

I know this is a good idea some time I also use the same strategy but this did not work when I followed a contest
until now I did not find the safe way to control emotions when gambling I mean related contest

This is basically still a strategy of gambling it self aside from number 1 which is true that you really should have a goal or a target amount then quit and withdraw all your funds..But the other numbers are i think not a process of controlling your self
