Topic: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? - page 12. (Read 6130 times)

True, someone who is an adult should be able to consider everything they want to do before finally deciding, and if you have made a decision, it means that all the impacts that will occur at the end of all this are really our responsibility and become something that we must be able to accept because from the beginning we have agreed with ourselves to do it, on the other hand not all input and suggestions will always lead to goodness and therefore this is the importance of considering first before deciding, After all, someone who is an adult should be able to distinguish what to do and what not to do, and on the other hand, if some friends invite us to get involved in gambling by force or even threats then I think it's only natural that in the end you blame them when you experience a lot of problems as a result of gambling that you do under the coercion of others, but if at the beginning they did not force at all and only invited then we should be able to think that everything we did was based on our own willingness and availability, meaning that no one can be blamed except ourselves.

that's true, everyone who gambles of course wants to get a profitable win, and this is clearly what all gamblers want to get without exception, in fact, in my opinion, people who gamble with the aim of just having fun also definitely have little desire to be able to win. get a win, but they can still restrain themselves from the madness of gambling, because many gamblers want to win, they become crazy about gambling, which causes them to experience big losses.

gambling with your own desires and with the losses you get, it is not natural to blame other people, unless we are forced to gamble, but in my opinion no one will force us to gamble because it is an incorrect action. We hope that we gamble with money that we can afford to lose, because many gamblers gamble but are not ready to lose their money, so it creates problems for themselves. Also, they become addicted to gambling or experience a lot of losses because they themselves are not good at controlling themselves, so it is not natural to blame other people for the losses they have experienced.

Things like this often happen and it would be shame because other people who don't know anything and are not involved in the betting session they are carrying out are affected by the mistakes that cause them to lose.
If I saw such gamblers directly, I would strongly emphasize that the fault lies with themselves and not with other people, that way they will realize that it is not appropriate to blame anyone for the losses they experience.
After all, they lost because of their own uncontrollable ambition and emotions, so blaming other people will only cause more complicated problems.
I sure someone who is blamed will definitely not be able to accept it because they didn't do anything but have to bear the consequences of their defeat, maybe there will be dispute.

It would be much better to have sense of responsibility for every decision they have taken, they decided to risk money in gambling so that they also have to accept the risks and consequences.
If they don't want to admit mistakes in every decision they make and have lost some money then don't even think about trying gambling again.

Yeah, that's the best way of dealing with loss, and life in general to be honest.

The main issue with that it's that it's a difficult thing to do, so most people won't do it.

The majority will always do what's simple and easy instead of what's right. That's why most people live an average life.

Yeah, one of the reason is to try recovering the money that they already lost or they both addicted and just wanted to keep playing, and when they notice that there's nothing left they start to point finger to other people making it more look like someone access the account and move the money to a gambling site, which is not hard to prove nowadays as there's already security check that may allow the investigator to look on the devices and geophysical location where the last access has been done.

They can't just blame someone and let the investigator believe that they are not the one who are in-charge on those transactions.

so in essence they are suing the person for getting access to their opay account and transferring the money to their sports betting account? Wow! Isnt it funny.

I don't see a reason why they should be jailed since the money belongs to them. The only reason why they could possibly be sanctioned is because they had to drag someone to their mess. How on earth do you continue gambling snf you have Lost up to a million naira plus and you still continue gambling? This is why it is very necessary to set out an amount you wouldn't gamble above so you wouldn't end up losing all your wealth. I guess the reason why they continued playing until the lost such amount of money could possibly be that they were expecting to recover all their lost money and had to gamble until the unexpected happened.

I don't think anyone should be blamed for losing a bet just like losing money while trying to invest, the same thing happens with gambling and the truth of it all, is that no matter what you venture into there will be a little amount of risk in it. And i feel every single person should be responsible for their self. And everyone knows that is either you win or you lose when it comes to gambling. So as you been positive of winning also know that at the same time you can also lose that money. Gambling is a self made decision and  and that is why what ever it comes with should be taking like that.

I don't blame anyone and even if you blame someone, what's the point of doing that anyway? Will the money that you've lost because you've put an all in on one of the spin because you were feeling lucky that time? If that's what happened when you and I blame someone, I think that everyone that's been doing that would've still be gambling non-stop to this day because they've got the infinite money glitch that will make them gamble forever. Also, it's really immature of us to blame people for what we've done because that's the shittiest thing that you can do and at the same time irresponsible because you don't have the guts and balls to face that it's your mistake and that you're not such good person after all.

Gambling will be entirely at my own discretion it is not right to blame anyone here if you lose by betting. We need to be realistic and think for ourselves before betting. Whether I can succeed in this place or not if I think I will be harmed then it would be right to go away by myself. No one can force you to play against your will. If there is a possibility of losing money instead of blaming others try to deal with it.

This is why it would really be always best that you should really know on what you should be doing and it would really be that just right that you should really be realistic on the things that you've been doing because
if not then you would really be ending up on miserable specially on doing gambling. You would really be just that making yourself laughable on the time that you do blame someone on the things that you are the ones who could really be just blamed on. When you do gambling then it is really that depending into your own decisions on which no one had been that making you force on doing gambling. On the time that you do make
out some bets and make some deposit on a gambling site then it is really that actually your own choice and not theirs. It is really just that there are people who are really that loving on blaming
someone basing up on the things that they've been dealing with specially when they do get wrecked which is really that laughable.

As you said that people gamble because they want to double the money, so if they really win and double their money who will be the beneficial for this ? Of course the gambler who took the risk will be the beneficiary. And will he share his gambling profit with anyone ? Of course Not. Will you give credit for your winnings to someone? No way.

So if you lose in gambling, it makes no sense to blame someone else for your loss. Unless you are playing on a scam site, that's a separate thing but if you are playing on a trusted gambling site, both the win and loss is yours and not you have no rights to blame anyone and also not the gambling site for your loss.

When someone decides to gamble, of course they want to double the money they have to make more money and if they are lucky they will win the bet they placed and if they lose then they must be able to accept it well, lest after they experience a loss on their bet they continue to make mistakes. What's even worse is taking other people's property so they can use it to gamble again.

What you say is very true, if we cannot afford to lose the money we have in gambling then it would be better for us not to recognize gambling. Indeed, not everyone can win consistently from their gambling and if they have lost from their gambling then they must be able to take responsibility with what they do, don't blame other people if they lose from their gambling.

Betting is in another way looks like trading and investment and in the process losing is inevitable in this three things I mentioned, because when looking at it from your own way of understanding and your own of doing anything concerning gambling, its seems that at this correct time if someone lose in gambling the person will find one or two blames for itself in gambling, so therefore in gambling you have to stake what you can afford to lose and same thing is an advice given to a trader to trade and invest what they can afford to lose to avoid blame from anyone, their is way you will gambling or spend your money and you start thinking that someone maybe you have rubbed or someone manipulate you, what happens is that you are curious that is why you gamble or bet what you can afford to lose

Indeed, it is not the right action to blame friends or relatives, but it has happened, and that is why we must always be careful before deciding. And if we already know that the risk of gambling is losing money, it is better for us not to gamble and immediately divert our attention to other things so that we don't think about gambling. Curiosity will arise within us, but if we can divert it to other things, it will disappear. And by keeping ourselves busy doing other things, we will never go to the casino to gamble because we already have pleasurable activities. But even if we gamble with a certain amount of money, even though we know that gambling carries the risk of losing money, we should be more careful in spending the money to gamble. And because we already know the risk of losing money, it will make us more careful when gambling and always prevent more losses.

It is better to stay away from gambling than to experience the severe effects of gambling, especially since many people have experienced it. Some already know the impact of gambling, but even more want to gamble because they see the potential to win from gambling, so they decide to gamble more often. But if they decide to continue gambling, they must not blame other people because it is their own decision, and they must accept all the consequences and risks. They should be able to prevent this from happening because they already know what impact gambling can have on them, but they still want to gamble.

We are the ones who have to accept the risks and consequences of the decisions we make because we are gambling, and of course, we are also the ones who will feel the impact. If we don't want to experience the impact, we should not gamble and just leave it without any desire to try gambling.

We follow our views, goals, and assessments, not external influences.

I've seen friends gamble too. Some jump in headfirst, drawn by the thrill and possible benefits, while others, like you, think strategically. Gambling reveals our values and decision-making processes, which is fascinating. Our individuality and self-discovery tale continues with each win or setback.

Your conclusion is correct: blaming others for gambling results denies our agency. Gamble for fun, profit, or the thrill of it - our choice. This awareness enhances our experience and promotes personal responsibility. We learn, adapt, and most importantly own our journey.

Your statement contradicts itself. Initially, you mentioned that you think it's acceptable to hold your friend responsible for forcing you to bet, but then, you stated that it's still your own self is the one accountable for everything happen to yourself if ever you lose in gambling.

Even if someone pressures you to place a bet, if you don't agree with the decision, you won't end up in that situation. If you do agree, it means you let that person control your decision-making and ultimately gave in to their pressure. In this situation, you shouldn't blame your friend but rather take responsibility for your actions.

Yes, but I think it's more of a psychological and emotional behavior in their part that's why they tend to blame someone, and can't take their losses. But there could be also others to take their responsible for their losses.

Or it could be something that we call self-preservation. I mean it could mean that individuals will likely protect themselves, not just in gambling, but anything in life and not attributed the bad decisions they made to themselves.

Being an adult means being accountable for our actions. By this, no one can be blamed for our actions as we have grown to decipher what suits us or not. This is also related to gambling. People gamble because they want to gamble and not because they are lured to gamble.

Before I started gambling, I had a friend who was deeply into gambling and he has always tried to talk me into gambling because I am a sports lover. Most times when we discuss he throws up gambling discussions and even ask me about my opinion on certain games just to get my analysis and follow my prediction. Sometimes he wins and other times he loses. All his efforts to make me gamble were futile.

I gained an interest in gambling on my own when I felt that I could be making extra cash from it. In summary, nobody should blame another for losing in gambling because he wasn't forced to play under duress. Thus, every gambler should be accountable for his actions.

That can indeed happen, because in my environment this happens too. When I gamble and a friend of mine sees me gambling, he pays attention to every round, and by being lucky I get a win, and indirectly this definitely makes my friend who sees the gambling I do interested. and with his curiosity he asked me to explain step by step how to do the same gambling as me.

but before that of course I reminded him and suggested not to try it, because what I was afraid of would be that he would become strongly addicted to gambling, up to now the one who often gambles is my friend rather than myself, this is what I don't want to happen, but it's good that he doesn't blamed me for the many losses he suffered while he was gambling. I myself don't want to be responsible for him being addicted to gambling, because I had previously warned him not to try it. and I hope not will not blame me for the gambling he has done.

self-responsability is a must, you are the main character of your life and you are responsible for your decisions and actions
no one else to blame


even when a friend enters our lives we are responsible for letting them, for ignoring some of the gut feelings and all
nobody can force us to gamble after all
