I am not enjoying gambling until now if I don't have control.
I understand that gambling is a high risk kind of entertainment, so if we are not careful here, we will not get entertain, instead we will allow gambling to ruin our life. I know how it feels to loss control and loss the money that aren't suppose to be for gambling because I experience that many times when I was still a newbie, but eventually as long as we are willing to learn, we will become more matured and we will make a wise decision.
Topic: Do you have control or not? - page 19. (Read 3759 times)
Control is a rather mythical thing that everyone aspires to, which I think is right.
But to achieve control, or rather, to realize that control has been achieved, you need to put yourself in a situation in which you usually lose control, and this time hold it.
In my opinion, control is an opportunity to stop gambling painlessly following your strategy during an irresistible desire to continue.
Therefore, it is so important to have a well-developed plan, following which you will not lose control.

If you win you will encourage to bet more, if you lose you will also encourage to bet again because you want to regain the money that you lose. Before we gamble our money, we should know our limitations. We should know when we you are going to play more or when you are going to fold. We are playing probability and there is no sure money in gambling. Improving self control is important skill and most of gamblers are lack of it.
You are quite right with that point, I just wanted to ask because some consider playing gambling and betting as having an effect to the mind of a person. It is some sort of addiction when they play regularly, but based on my perception, gambling daily is a passion where people put their time and effort daily, it is their way of having fun and self control would be just a bonus if they could control their betting frequency.
Control is very easy to achieve if you have discipline in your self, 'cause control is made from discipline. You can't quit gambling if you don't have discipline in yourself that will 'cause no control and will lead to addiction. If you have a mindset of setting the mode as entertainment only then I think it will just be fine 'cause everybody is spending for their own satisfaction.
The only wrong thing here is when you're getting addicted and trying to win and win.
If you win you will encourage to bet more, if you lose you will also encourage to bet again because you want to regain the money that you lose. Before we gamble our money, we should know our limitations. We should know when we you are going to play more or when you are going to fold.

Yes, of course, gambling every day will have an effect on the mind of the person. And that can attract that person to get addicted in a long time so he will not think about his money because he will only think about how to win the games. Gambling daily will give a passion to that gambler so that he will not think about the fun and to enjoy the game, but he will think about the games and the money. But if we have a control for ourselves, I am sure that we can prevent the worse thing that can happen later.

If you bet only by the game itself then you have control, if you bet by the money in the blind hope then you have lost control. I would say the very simple measure to take that would actively help regain control would be to write down the bet for risk vs reward in plain pencil on notepad and decide how it compares contrasts to alternative bets. The really risky thing is to bet in a rush not take the time to consider which is the best bet that evening and has the best prospects vs the wager.
Anyone with a written strategy of some kind and especially if you stick to a set budget, that person is in control. The fevered betting without stops, while drinking or stopping to think, that leads to the worst losses and can be described as out of control.

Can you consciously and willingly stop gambling at any time?
Yeah I can because I made sure I have to stick with my budget or capital at any gambling session, that's my style to stay discipline. If you can do the above, you have great control and discipline, of course you are not an addict and you deserve to gamble as much as you want.
If not, clarify your ways of stopping gambling.

It took time for me to learn and be discipline, when I started, I am easily get tempted and the adrenaline rush of the game is killing me and my bankroll, glad that after many losing experience, it made me more matured to understand that our chances in winning in gambling is lesser and the only way to enjoy it is to gamble with fun.

I have always considered gambling as my side hustle or as way to earn more pocket money during my education times. I guess I have good if not complete control on my desire to gamble. Last times I stopped at will was when I had my summer project going on
But still, you need to be careful when you gamble because if you think that gambling can be a way to get more money, then you will be disappointed in the long term. Gambling is not designed as a source of income, but it's intended for entertainment. So if you hear or know or meet a person who can win from gambling, then that person has the luck. You cannot be like him because we have different luck, so you need to have control of yourself.
To be honest the answer to your question if you can control or not is depends on the person, if a person really want change he will do what is right
control his emotion and mental to stop his self from being addicted to gambling, also he also needs help from the family to be able to cope with it
yes anyone can say i can control myself but in reality, he really can't why? because its already there, what a person can do is think of things that
make him hate gambling in that way he can feed that to his mind from there he can control it and totally stop gambling

Gamblers can have a problem, however, without being totally out of control. Problem gambling is any gambling behavior that disrupts your life. If you’re preoccupied with gambling, spending more and more time and money on it, chasing losses, or gambling despite serious consequences, you have a gambling problem.

Personally this is the only aspect of gambling I have no control over, at times having a straight four wins I wouldn't stop until I loss two or more bets before realizing that my emotions isn't controlled , I promised to myself to shut down my device after hitting my daily target or after having a three straight losing streaks.If you can do the above, you have great control and discipline, of course you are not an addict and you deserve to gamble as much as you want.

there is no wrong if sometimes you cannot control your playing habits because this is enjoyable but if all the time same issue?then there is a problem on yours.
I agree, instead of shutting down your device or deleting the application, why not remove your internet at home and live like it's 1995, don't stick your nose too much in gambling, try to walk out of your room and refresh your mind to be able to make more better decisions in your life. It is a disease if you can't live a single day without the internet, you have to be aware of that, it could damage your brain if you spend too much time in your computer sitting all day without doing any exercises and not eating on time.
You have to control everything, not just in gambling but also your daily routine in your life, it is important and a must.

I am not that addicted to gambling and I know how to control when I am playing gambling. If I want to play gambling, it is when I feel that I want to and there are no specific reasons. Some other gamblers are playing because they wanted to win a huge amount but in my case, I play if I just want to.If you can do the above, you have great control and discipline, of course, you are not an addict and you deserve to gamble as much as you want.

Looking at the jackpot prize, can't deny that people getting much interest in gambling.
May in your part is different but basically, we do gambling just hoping for our luck and won the prize. Though we say, I do gambling just for fun but if we lose, I'd never think that we're happy about the result.

I beleive I have control over gambling & can stop whenever needed. Recently, I took two significant breaks of about 1 month each , first I was busy with my project at work & other where I took a vacation of about 15 days and then few errands at priority. I consider gambling as an option for my pocket money & do have a job to support my main financials.

I am sure you are not addicted to gambling if you are able to keep your cool and control your emotions. If you ever feel gambling is taking out time from other activities you should check yourself but how much time you are spending and how much bankroll you have spent. It would be best if you stop gambling for a short period and engage in social work and social life. Often bad things happen to people and they take wrong steps and go into gambling spree. Its important for them to be kept in check by their family members. Its tough for them but it is always possible to reform their ways if they wish to.
I'm not lucky with gambling so I rarely gamble but whenever I play, I always set a certain amount of money that I can afford to lose and never ever add another funds. Sometimes if I get lucky, when my funds became double or triple then I will keep my capital + some earnings then just play along with the remaining.
