Topic: Do you feel excited while gambling - page 10. (Read 1689 times)

If you don't enjoy gambling then leave. If there is no problem with you, it means you are not facing a gambling addiction problem. so you can return to playing or exit the game whenever you want.
Gambling should give you pleasure in the game. Even though I'm sure the obsession with winning still exists, gamblers should be aware that in gambling games there will be losses and wins. so if we don't win it means we lose and vice versa.

That is the thought of many (having fun and excitement) but it is also the reason why many people become addicted. I understand why because I was in that situation when first tried gambling but I'd never let my excitement push me to exceed my limit and be able to control my gambling habits. I will not say I was doing this for fun because I also wanted to win but I never chase my losses cause I know this will lead to losing more.

I was excited before but now, I just feel like a normal activity in my life as I do this not every day, it is when have free time. Having some gap in gambling helps to control and even stop falling addiction which I recommend everyone, especially for beginners.

It's normal not feel excited after some streak of losses in gambling, however gambling with the amount of money you can afford to lose would wouldn't make me to worry much or feel sad, however I would have to recheck my strategy if I experience some consistent losses though gambling is a 50:50 chance, however with regards to soccer bettings I needed to accumulate 4 or 5 games to get a odds of 3.0 and I always ensured that I was picky in selection of the matches so as to pick games with better chances of winning thus after staking I wouldn't bothered if I lose, however it can't be straight losses.

For someone like me to have thought of going for gambling alone is an excitement on itself because i will feel like having fun with gambling as am more in disposition for that during my leisure time, gambling is all about being entertained, the excitement should not only comes in when we are winning while gambling, we should always remember the purpose for gambling and the reason why we are going for it in the first place, this will be our courage each time we are gambling whether wining or not, we will be so excited

People get too much emotionally attached to the results of their games as a result of how much they spend to gamble, many of these people that usually makes these complains are either that they are spending beyond what they ordinary could afford to lose or because they took gambling so serious that they feel it's a source for them to make money and when that's not happening crazy emotions set in and they feel deeply disappointed exhibiting unhealthy and irrational reactions

I haven't had a moment I feel deeply bad for losing a game and the secret is that I have a budgeted set amount that I have trained my mind not to go above everytime I gamble because I feel satisfied that that's the amount I can lose without me feeling it. But when we do things without proper guidance the disappointed that follows can drastically hit us negatively.

That's what I kept on saying here in the forum. It adds more flavor to the game. Sure, sports have the entertaining factor especially if you are a big fan of it but sometimes it gets lame because two teams are not that fun to watch when the battle each other. Here is where the gambling factor comes in, it will make the game watchable and somehow we are cheering for the team we bet for even if we don't like them.

It's not always about just spending money and losing it. The entertainment factor is being enhanced by gambling and we get more excited when we put money on the line. Casino games on the other hand are the one that gets boring especially if we are doing it every day. There's really nothing to watch. I stay with Plinko because I like the satisfaction it gives watching the balls falling but when I am losing it takes out the fun. Unlike sports, the fun part is already there, we are just upgrading it with the use of money.

This is why we have always advocated for the need to set a gambling budget and stick to it. When you set a budget and stick to it you don`t have to worry about the number of times you win or lose because your gambling is determined by the budget and since this budget is determined by our income which is an amount we are prepared to lose it becomes easier to control our emotions. Gambling often involves high levels of emotional arousal due to the potential for winning or losing money. The thrill of taking risks and the uncertainty of outcomes can trigger strong emotional responses but this can be controlled when we gamble with a ratio of our income we can afford to lose.

Most gamblers don’t set a budget and others set a budget but find it difficult to stick to it because gambling can be an impulsive activity, and some people may find it difficult to resist the urge to gamble, even if they know they cannot afford it. This can cause the gambler to exceed his budget. There are also inexperienced gamblers who do not fully understand the odds of winning or losing, and they may believe that they have a better chance of winning than they do. This can lead to unrealistic expectations and overspending.

Perfectly said but many people will choose to ignore warning signs and rather choose to try their luck on the same thing that is causing them so much pain, fear, tension and anxiety. Will you blame them? After all their next door neighbours made  huges win from gambling, therefore they too can win . Most of these gamblers who permit gambling to cause them pain would rather prefer to learn from their own experiences rather than adhere to advices on how to gamble responsibly. To them, gambling is all about taking risks and they would foolishly take risks they are not emotionally prepared for. Gambling can never be fun for these kind of people,  they are here for the money and the money they'll struggle to get till it leads them into misery.

Playing gambling for fun is what we must do. But some people playing gambling to make money because their reason playing gambling is different from other people. When we playing gambling, we want to search excitement and fun in gambling and that is why many people still return to the casino and search for the other gambling games. I feel excited when gambling but I don't used much time just to playing gambling because that can cause me in trouble of losing the money. Feeling excited is something that people search from gambling but they must limit their money and time to avoid the big lost. We can't risk much money to gamble especially if we are playing gambling in our spare time.

I don't understand, playing for fun is normal. I do that too. I usually bet to make the entertainment more exciting. Imagine watching a game between two teams that are at the bottom of the table. Betting will help liven up this ugly game.

lol there are times? that you think about winning ? are you serious so meaning most times you are not wishing to win instead accept the faith of being loser?

hope you will win sometimes without wishing.


well , even if I know you are lying that only playing for fun yet let us support your plans .

the emotional condition when losing at gambling as if there was no luck whatsoever is very normal for all gamblers, even though responsible gamblers or professional gamblers will still experience emotions when luck is not on your side and it's all about self control.
when I understand what you have said, you not only feel emotional, but you also feel anxious, so you better get rid of your anxiety which encourages you to continue betting, because if not, anxiety will push your emotions deeper which can affect your own mental state.
I say this because I have experienced it before and I managed to get rid of that feeling of anxiety, even though defeat made me emotional, but I was more able to control myself because I no longer felt that anxiety.

emotional hormones can actually still be controlled unless you have anxiety such as being afraid of losing more money and wanting to chase it again or you will even feel depressed if emotions and anxiety become one.
as I said before, when I play slots, even though I lose without winning, I still feel emotional and enthusiastic to continue betting, but not beyond the limits of my ability that I had previously planned.
so that the budget I have can be used to gamble again in a few days to try my luck again.

so in conclusion, it's better to immediately force yourself to stop betting if you feel emotional or anxious and force your mind to divert to other activities to forget about the defeat and set limits for yourself.

Not playing poker, not for quite some time. It's the best way, play as rationally as you can. The last times I felt it was when reaching the final table of a multi-table tournament, or when climbing levels. But I've been playing only cash games at the same level for a long time, so the excitement level is practically 0. And well, although nowadays I control it quite well, it is also inevitable at some point when you have been on a bad streak for a while and in a certain session a retard who has no idea how to play keeps winning everything, I have a kind of tilt but at that moment I realize that the best thing I can do is to close the session and that's what I do.

Apart from gambling if you are loosing in anything generally you definitely feel bad and disappointed because it's normal human instinct to expect success at the tail end of every thing which you have embarked upon to do so if you at any point begin to fail at it, it normal that your reaction would be to feel disappointed and UN satisfied but what matters most is your total reaction in the long run, if you allow that to weigh you down so much that you couldn't focus on something else asides that.

Our response to disappointments and failure usually matters a lot most times even much more than the failure itself so it's usually not reasonable to make up such reaction that may worsen situations, if you are gambling and you are loosing, it's very foolish to think that you can just get over the losses buy increasing your stake on the next bet and if you win you will be able to recover all at once, it's even best if at the moment you quit especially if you have exhausted your gambling capital because if you decide to win back that which you have lost, you may end up in mores losses and probably bankruptcy which may further lead to indulging in unhealthy practices if you don't stop almost immediately.

Gambling should feel enjoyable if we are able to go through it without emotional feelings, and if you see a change in yourself when you no longer feel pleasure and continue to experience losses then you should immediately stop before things make it more difficult for you to continue betting if the outcome always makes you emotional. In fact, gambling is indeed a game of chance where losses often occur, therefore if you expect to win then it is better not to gamble because the way gambling works does not always match your expectations, namely making a profit.

I am not an emotional gambler even though my gambling experiences more losses than wins because my goal is only to seek entertainment and I always use what I can afford to lose so I never think about having unpleasant feelings, unless I am in trouble and I Taking it out on gambling will cause new problems and make it difficult to control myself, so when I'm feeling bad, I avoid gambling for a while.

I suspect gamblers who gamble but become emotional about the losses they get because they gamble beyond their limits, for example making a deposit with an amount they can't afford to lose and placing a bet with an amount they can't afford to lose, and if they consistently lose then it's better to stop for a moment because if you continue to force it you might make other mistakes because you are too controlled by your emotions.
So far I am still able to accept everything, but that doesn't mean I don't feel annoyed or mad when I lose, but it's only for a moment because I understand that feelings like that will only interfere with us in doing other activities, and in my opinion, because there are gamblers who gamble because they want to get pleasure, then when you don't get it, it could be that you are too controlling, for example you are too eager to make a profit.

It is interesting to always play with the right pretensions and expectations. Otherwise you will be frustrated. For example, I always play looking for fun and, if possible, profit. This way I have fun and still make a profit, sometimes.

You can only be excited when gambling when you already know that the ending of the gambling will a Land you at the advantages site of gambling or a process whereby you gambled and at the end you made it in gambling so that is when you can be excited through a gambling but I believe that when you are playing gambling frequently and you are not making any profit from gambling I don't think that you'll be excited in gambling due to the numerous lose or loss you experience in your gambling so you can never be excited because of you are not gaining from gambling rather you lose everytime

I have learned to always accept any result I get from gambling because the results are not guarantee that it must be a winning slip. I feel happy any time am gambling but my mood can change if I have series of loses. I will get angry for losing my bet but after some minutes I will just feel ok again. Gambling is fun but you can not do it without losing money, so if you don't want to lose money, stop gambling.

I agree, because if you continue gambling and pushing your luck, it is likely that you will end up disappointed with the outcome and lose more money than you anticipated. Taking a break from gambling is also a strategy that can help you unwind and regain your composure. It can also provide an opportunity to reflect on your decisions and make better choices when you return to gambling, which can increase your chances of winning.
