Topic: Do you feel excited while gambling - page 12. (Read 2350 times)

As humans, there is no way we can stop the good and ill feelings about gambling. We can only control ourselves but they will surely happen based on how we play, the risk we take and the outcome of our gambling. Yet, it is good that we avoid or limit issues to avoid ugly effects for ourselves. Gambling is not a child's play and no matter the outcome of our gambling, it could trigger emotion in us. I am talking about the emotion in the sense of greed if we are winning and the winning has become consistent, we would want to play more even as we are happy to do it. Some as well, won't get to the point that they will even win consistently, still, they will not win once and stop but would continue to play due to greed since they do not have any viable plans but are just playing.

Before they knew it, they could have lost back what they won and even lost more. Also, the same scenario is applicable to those who lost and entertained fear (emotion) due to it. At this stage, such a gambler should have taken a break but would want to revenge for what was lost even as fear has also taken the whole mind of the gambler. The result can't be surprising but will end in losses because such is gambling not with his sense but with the emotion in him which now controls him. This can now continue to push due to the view that an act of revenge can recover back the money lost for him, but in most cases, more money would be lost instead until the account is ruined and the eye of the gambler will clear.

This is why we should moderate everything in gambling, we should not be too excited when we win or feel too bad when we lose so that the two will not ignorantly take hold of us and cause us to make mistakes

Yes, that is a big mistakes if they used gambling as a sides job. They will lose big money if they force themselves. Many ways to make money so they should search it by themselves. But many people doesn't realizes about that and still trying because they still see the chance to make money. If they can't feels excited while gambling, instead just feels want to make money, they become greedy and that can leads them to lose much money. Even if some gamblers can used gambling to make money, those people doesn't have to follow them because there is a big difference between them and makes them can't makes money. They can only used gambling as parts of fun and treats gambling as an entertainment and not for making money. We can't be like those people who can make money, especially if we don't have much money to be used for playing gambling.

I think the emotional component of gambling is what makes it really interesting and one of the most important part of it but a lot of people has actually ignored that fact.
For some people, their emotions can be a source of excitement and even a thrill, but that can also lead to people feeling disappointed and even depressed when they lose. While to others who approach gambling from a place of fun, curiosity and enjoyment, they may be less likely to feel negative emotions if they eventually lose. It's definitely a matter of why you play, whether to win or just to enjoy yourself.

Yes, gambling is entertainment but many people take it as a profession. For that many people feel excited! what will occur the next because they're addict more in gambling. I think people should take it entertainment. If they take it entertainment then they will get 2 benefits. One is enjoy the game and 2nd is chance of winning. Here emotions are most important for a gambler. If emotion control brain then people will excited or if brain control emotions then people feel enjoyment. However, gambling is just a game for enjoyment. Everyone's need to enjoy the game from heart not excitement.

Easy to say and looks that simple but majority of gamblers cant really be able to do such thing. Why? because they've become that greedy and they are becoming that hopeful on becoming
rich and this is why it would really be that best that you should really be knowing on how to distinguish on whats just for fun and whats for serious dealing.
People do mess up their lives on the time that they are really going overboard with those limits specially on spending money. If you wont be careful then for sure you would be ending up miserable.
Gambling should be for fun and entertainment and not something that would really be stressful for you because thats not how gambling should works.

I always use gambling as entertainment. I never use gambling outside of entertainment. Also more excitement more emotion harms people more the more emotion and excitement can be avoided while gambling the better. Here I say though I take gambling as a pastime but still I have some excitement while gambling I always keep that excitement under my control and sometimes participate in gambling. There are many people who cannot control their emotions and get too excited in gambling.

when someone so emotionally attached its definitely addiction added with the other reason like can't stop gambling for a while thats obvious addiction and that person needs helps.
gambling is finding excitement and thrill, people that are in it without even thinking about  the consequences are definitely people that don't know about gambling at all.

personally I think the most important thing about it is finding excitement you see watching sport without putting something at stake just make things boring but when you are at stake you will be more committed into watching the sports like watching football for example even if the match is mid, if you know you have something at stake it will become exciting i think that what most people find in it.

the thing is that its only becoming problematic if they just trying to make living out of it, an odd thats 50:50 is never good for making a living out of it.
people should know if something should be for entertainment and something should be for taking seriously like career in being an employee.
you can be betting something to lift off real life burden but you probably will make bad decision if you are making living out of it.

If you control your emotions at the beginning, I think everything will be really comfortable, but your emotions are completely understandable. Continuously losing bets, especially with large amounts of money, can make you feel uncomfortable. Everyone feels sad and disappointed. It is good that you are aware that gambling is a game of chance. It is entirely possible to bet multiple times without winning.

I think you should also consider switching to other games. There are many games that provide fun and entertainment without having to bet money. Remember, the main purpose of gambling is for entertainment. If you don't feel happy while playing, stop immediately.

Everyone have a road to happiness. None of this winning is consider small, rather we push harder to filled in the holes of our dissapointing results. Honestly, gamblers exists to accumulate huge profits and also, they should be considered traditional. We gamble because there are small needs that's ought to be accomplished in the system but due to work, we just have to keep striving for excellent performance. I can't be excited when gambling, because there's either way it will end in the pocket or out, meaning one fan either win or lose.

When you're feeling want to quit but you just can't, it's because you're too emotional on it and that can be helped at the moment.

The sooner you realize that you have to stop and you actually did, means that you're not yet addicted and attached to gambling because you're able to control that emotion.

It's hard to get by with that situation and it happens to many gamblers. Being excited as you gamble and thinking on how much you're likely to win for this day, I don't think of that much because I know it's always like 50/50 or 30/70.

It is important to know and accept that when the gambling you do can affect your mental stability and health, where you feel quite uncomfortable because of the losses you experience, it could be a sign that the gambling you do is no longer a healthy hobby. and to prevent the situation from getting worse, it would be better if you seek support, either from your family or those closest to you, and even if you need to seek help from professionals, then do it, because this is for your own good. and on the other hand, it seems that you also need to take other preventive measures, namely by implementing and setting limits on your budget and playing time, so that apart from this it can help you manage your finances and gambling activities well, but this can also help you in reduce stress and tension when gambling.

I advise you, remember that gambling should be a pleasant pastime, and if you don't get it anymore and this activity can even have other negative impacts, it can also disrupt your life balance and mental health, it would be better if you were able to stop the activity. gambling, and trying to find other alternatives that are healthier and less risky.

I think he/she should be a greedy type that want to make huge money from gambling. Gambling isn't fun anymore immediately you gamble using important money that is meant for something else to gamble. I such games lose out, one becomes frustrated and may keep thinking. With this you can never be excited when gambling.

Of course, it's normal to get excited about gambling, especially if you predict correctly in gambling and you win. It's also normal to lose in gambling one after another, that's really part of the game, so you must control your emotions so that you don't get too affected when you feel like you're having a bad day. You need to have a budget so you know when to stop and when to continue. It's okay to try to quit gambling if you know you're overdoing it, it's better to quit while you're not addicted to gambling and you know yourself that you can stop it.

There's this thing called hedonic set point. It's the very thing that stops us from enjoying the same thing over and over again especially if we've done it in multiple successions across different instances. This doesn't just go for gambling either, so if you're having concerns about your mental health or whatever be at ease cause this is a real thing that happens and it's common.

Now, you're probably in the burned out phase where you feel like there's no real incentive in what you're doing at this point and it's not that fun anymore even if you win, what I would highly suggest you do during these situations is to actually quit gambling for the meantime, and substitute it with a more interactive activity that you would do for extended periods of time. Perhaps sports, video-games, talking to friends over on Discord, or anything really. All you have to do is to make sure that you're spending the time you would've used up for gambling onto something that is worthwhile, not mind-numbing, and active. Eventually you'd feel the pull of gambling back and when that happens, take it slowly, play a couple games per day on limited bankrolls or whatever, micro-dose yourself in oxytocin and dopamine instead of pushing for instant gratification, and you'd suddenly feel healthier, more in control of your life, and of course, happier. Trust me, I've been in the same situation as you have countless times due to the nature of my work and the lack of personal interactions it entails but as soon as I realized I just have to make sure I control my hedonic setpoint instead of having it control me, I've had a more fulfilled life.

I think you should try to limit the amount of money you use for gambling. Moreover, you said that you experience defeat more often.
Actually, this feeling of displeasure arises when your money is continuously eroded by losing at your own game.
If you can reduce the amount of money to the point where you feel fine, I think you will also feel happy when playing even though your potential winnings are small.
Many people enjoy gambling and find it fun because they are not at all bothered by the losses they incur, they just want to play honestly.

Gambling with what you can afford to lose is just a warning to make sure you don't use funds budgeted for other important uses for gambling. And I think it's normal to feel bad if you're not winning especially if you're new to gambling, but you've to take it easy with yourself and re-strategize. If you bet often on sport betting, you've to reconsider trimming your bet on a slip to increase your chances of winning. After taking this step and you're still getting the same outcome, then you may want to take a break or quit.

Yes, I think that when gambling some sublime emotions are expressed naturally, there is no suppression, of course I can only play gambling and some other betting games on the weekends . I think it's a good spiritual food for stressful, tiring working days. The feeling of a great winner. Of course, you should not pay too much attention to winning or losing with huge sums of money. it will be more easily irritated and easier to knock itself out.

Gamblers who see gambling as a side hustle are into a big mistake and would need to remove such mentally from their memory, not to fall victim to a bigger trouble. It's been made clear that the house takes most of the money, and gamblers are just being given few percentages of what they wager. Hence those who are experts or professionals that make money through gambling like it's a career, planned it all the way to the end. The process is not a one-day thing, and the professionals have lots of money to finance their gambling habit. That is, they have calculated the house edge and observed how much they need on their bankroll to venture into a long-term gambling without running out of money. When they are done calculating it, their money mixes with the wins from the casino, such that they'll never go broke in the process and most of them belong to comp clubs, with facilitates the winning process for them, by offering them points to use for food and hotel bills.

Each gamblers will have their own motive and every people free to decide what is the motive they have. But they need to understand about the risk behind of that motive because many people doesn't want to know the risk and chasing the excitement of playing gambling. They use gambling to make money as a job they do but that is wrong if they thinks like that. They will only chase the winning without thinking that gambling is not a place to make money. Only a few people who can successful from gambling but they don't tell many people how they can do that. For ordinary gamblers, it's better they use gambling as a source of pleasure so they don't have an intention to chase the winning. They will control themselves while playing gambling because they know that is the only chance to avoid addicted to gambling.

Demo account gambling doesn't give the real life experience you get from gambling, you won't be at a risk of losing your money when gambling through demo accounts therefore you won't be scared of risking more but when you're gambling with real money it's a totally different feeling. There are some individual that they been using demo accounts to practice but when they use real accounts they lose everything that they have as they didn't have real life experienced of gambling before.

You can use demo account but also try gambling with little money so you can have real life experiences too. Being over excited can make you to lose many amounts of money when gambling as you'll be over waging as you'll be thinking that you have more chances of winning but you don't have them and your brain is only deceiving you. Gambling shouldn't be done with over excitement, be realistic with your bets.
