This is a powerful trend. Betting plans is actually a good management plan and having a budget before betting would help limit breakdown after a loss.

I prefer it if what is lost is what one can afford to loose on a day to day base. Pretty cool its nice to have a plan and stick to it

And that includes your time, how long you should be staying whether your not yet out of funds or you've won a lot. There's no sense of enjoyment for others if the time will be the basis and limit.
But we have our different satisfaction and plans. So, if you plan to stay for long, you should determine how long you want to manage yourself gambling and what's your plan on it while having the budget with you.

definitely a great point to bring on.
time is a scarce resource, its our most limited and precious asset, better to spend it wisely.

OP even brings up the possibility of taking debt to gamble
one should never do that.

never invest more than what you can afford to loose.

I don't think gambling is something that can be given a budget. because gambling is like a suggestion. if you win you will always feel you can win more, if you lose you need to spend more budget to restore previous losses. Yes it's something that is hard to control. Gambling is more fun if it's just a hobby,not an exaggeration for sure.

The problem is, most of the people who used to play lightly are now playing excessively. It's because they already lose some huge amount of money and they want to get it back. As I read some posts here in this section, people lead to play excessively when they lose their money that came from debt and they wanted to get it back by playing like there is no tomorrow. They better stop themselves before it results in that kind of nightmare or else they will suffer a lot more than they expected.

This is a very basic cycle of gambling, always starting with a short timeline then progressing over a longer period, partly due to the lure of profits, another part starts from taking too much loss and pouring more money to mine back to the profit but the basic idea of the light of tomorrow affects too many problems. Instead of stopping to get out of the gambling siege, the player becomes more disruptive within the limits but this breakout is never good when that is the purpose gambling creates, they want us to follow this thought and end up in them

Many gamblers may be very impulsive and have issues to control their money when playing, but it doesn't mean it's impossible to set a limited budget to play daily/weekly/monthly. It depends on each gambler and how organized his financial life is. What must be done is to break the cycle you mentioned, so there won't be serious negative consequences for the gambler later.
Losses play a big role in gambling, and to try avoiding them desperatly will surely end in deeper losses. So a gambler must get used to them in order to survive on this industry on long run.

These businesses wont really boom out if people were to mindful towards their actions when we do talk about finances.Houses would really be making out things just for their

players to prolong on making out some gambling until they do realize that they dont have money left into their pocket for them to play.

Limiting out your gambling time is a must but majority of gamblers do really missed out or fail to do so even if its too basic to hear on.

This is about how do you make sure that you are gambling in full control. There are many people who are easily brought into gambling beyond fun and that is a problem for them and also for the gambling industry, because it is for them that there are limitations in many countries.

Do you actually...
- Have a weekly budget to play and do not ever go over it?
- Not ever get in debt for gambling?
- Have an allocated time for gambling and never exceed it?
- Gamble only socially with friends of relatives?
- Have someone helping you control your gambling?

Answers on questions:

1. Yes, I have a weekly gambling budget. That's 10 percent of my weekly income after tax.

2. I try not to borrow money. Borrowing money in order to gamble is a taboo for me.

3. Yes. I play on Thursdays and Fridays from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.

4. Usually I play alone. Sometimes in the company of friends or beloved girls.

5. I rely on self-control. Sometimes I have to control other players myself.

Pretty much many have their different ways of getting into gambling and what kind of gambling they take, if it is a casino or sportsbook gambling will still be gambling but I think Casino gambling will definitely burn out mostly all the time all of your earnings on your wallet, well, base on my experience and sports betting could become a saving grace for most, I really like Sportsbet's than Casino because I tend to lose more on Casino than with Sport bets, mostly I only have $2.7 USD on my wallet and in sports bets, I can surely increase that $2.7 dollar to $5 in weeks or analyzing and betting for my favorite team or a fighter.

If you can afford what you will lose in gambling, you do not have to regret if you lose your money in gambling because that is what we will get if we gamble. Making betting plans will be necessary, so you can know how long your time to gamble and you can quit gambling as soon as possible. Most people will forget their plans to stay at the casino soon after they can win for some rounds and if they still gamble, it does not need too long to lose the win money. In this matter, having limitations will be an important thing that a gambler should have.

Moreover, people who gamble for pleasure tend to lose control of their money.

You don't right lol. If you're playing for pleasure and entertainment, you're mentally, already accepted your potential loses. And if you trying to "win"m when you will not stop until you're lost everything or if someone else send you to the gambling addict clinic Sad

Exactly, you accepting the fact that you're going to lose the moment you start gambling technically means that you don't care about your money anymore, that's why somehow we could say that we lose our control towards our money.

And later on, when we realized that our money could've been more worthy to lose if we risk it to something else, like in a business or buying a property, so what's gonna happen next is you'll gamble again but not for pleasure, you're gonna play gambling because you wanted to take back your losses which is impossible and yes, you're going to be addicted on it while chasing your losses.

I'm limiting myself very much lately both because I am working like a maniac and also since I'm focusing only on sport; I'm basically betting only on the major European leagues. I miss playing dice a lot but I don't have time to concentrate on that at the moment,

It’s quite hard to limit gambling if were not busy, there were times I opted not to play but then I still play since there were some free time. So as much as possible I write activities to do to focus myself in other things other than gambling, I somestime put big mark of check whenever I finish a task to keep me stay away in gambling especially if I have other things to do, others do schedule their gambling but it doesnt work well with me especially if Im winning.

That's true, especially now with the pandemic and the quarantine measures, we have plenty of leisure time, thus it's easy to get tempted and start gambling, or spend a lot more time than you usually would. I try to keep myself from not spending more than a couple of minutes each day.

I have a full time job so I can't really spend much time gambling. I have a very strict bankroll management and like I already specified I only bet on sports and mostly for fun. I'm not a pro, I usually bet together with friends and colleagues and that is good to me.
Already lost a lot on dice on my own..... over and done.

I do not have something like a Gambling time, what I do have is extra money beside the savings. That money I do use for gambling every once in a while , I do believe that time should not matter at all. If you are playing well then you can use much more time , but if you are not playing well and loosing then you should wait for the next paycheck. You should never spend perse much more time, but rather set beside a different schedule and your money should be well managed. You have to understand that there are various things available on the sites , for example on the gambling websites there are things available to limit the account itself and you can also seek professional help if needed though.

Yes, I do have a budget to play. I has considered gambling as a form of entertainment for many years but it is hard to follow it if you recklessly deposit your money just to buy the happiness. And when you realize you are out of money, no fun anymore

Quote from: paxmao on April 13, 2021, 06:33:12 AM

- Not ever get in debt for gambling?

I have never get in debt because of gambling. I understand the rudimentary idea that we cant afford to lose much money, especially if it belongs to others. Consequently, I never borrow anyone money. But I do lose a huge amount of money which make me reconsider the meaning of gambling throughout many months

Quote from: paxmao on April 13, 2021, 06:33:12 AM

- Have an allocated time for gambling and never exceed it?

Of course. Gambling too much is not good, even if it is only for entertainment. We have to work, eat, sleep and obtain knowledge from our activities. Gambling is just a relaxation for a short time so I have to limit my time in order to do other things

Quote from: paxmao on April 13, 2021, 06:33:12 AM

I have met many new friends on the internet thanks to gambling. So the answer for the question is no

I fix everything mostly by myself, or youtube channel. I do not want to become a burden to anyone, even my family. Be responsible for any consequence you have made. That is my rule

Yes, I agree. This is the main reason why it makes sense for governments to set a maximum limit of time and/or a maximum of money, which can be lost. To be fair: It's nearly impossible to create such a law, because of different providers. But in general at least some losses are covered if you prohibit some players to risk all of their money.

Yes, I gamble with an budget. I usually set aside between 50 and 100 bucks per month for gambling, and if I manage to win some money I increase my budget a little for the next month. Usually I cash out with cryptos half of my larger winnings and leave the rest as new bankroll. Sometimes I exceed my limit and then I use a little bit more from my bankroll, but I try to not use borrowed money for gambling. I once asked a friend for 100 Euros in an casino to play more Roulette, in the end I lost it all and felt quite bad for losing his money. So now I try to avoid to gamble with other peoples money. At the moment I only gamble online because the casinos are closed.

You did the right thing by avoiding to keep asking for loans, friends and family members do not really have a problem with helping you when you are in need but if they find out that you are going to use the money for something like gambling then they are going to lose trust in you and most likely when you really need money for something more important they are not going to be willing to lend that money to you and that is never a good thing.

For me personally gambling has always been a "just for fun" type thing. I love to gable and have been doing so as long as I can remember, but for me it's never turned it to anything more than just a little bit of fun here and there. I do however know how easy it is to get addicted to things and I never take for granted how easy it's been for me to not go overboard with gambling..and I certainly wish the best for the those struggling with the addiction.
