Those who have regrets are those who risked a lot of money on gambling and they haven't make a lot to recover all they have spent, now they are all in regrets, you see, that's gambling for you and that's why it's not worth risking a lot of your money on.

I mostly take my time off gambling at times because of risk funds aren't available, my mind isn't always about what I will win you know, I only take risks on gambling when I can afford it, this way I already accept the possibility of losing the money.

If you can't afford to lose your money, you can either quit or lower the amount

Whenever a person does something they didn't plan on doing, they'll regret it, if the action doesn't have a positive impact. Gamblers who out of loneliness or boredom spend money in gambling will have regret or remorse. Especially when other neglected financial responsibilities begin to pop out of his mind. The blame goes to gambling, for taking all the money meant for other utilities. Hence, gamblers must have a rethink before gambling. Maybe, have other events to distract the mind from going to gamble. When in that condition, boredom, hanging out with friends are also an anti-dote for compulsive gambling, which may lead to problem gambling. Because, if they try to reduce the amount of gambling, the player still has control over the money, he can still increase it, till all his budgets get swept away. Even, during shopping, we do have a budget, but most of the time, it changes when we find ourselves in the mall. The same is true with gambling, discipline, and self-control matters. Those who lose control can windup the initial plan of spending a specific amount in gambling. There, the regrets begin to erupt.

Many criterion contributes to regrets in every gambler's experience. But, we all are expected to accept the responsibility of wagering money in gambling. The decision is ours and not of the casino. Blaming the casino or gambling for our mistake isn't helpful to the gambler. If a gambler blames himself, it'll help him avoid gambling much money next time. But, because they don't acknowledge their mistakes, the urge to repeat the same mistake can't be stopped or controlled. At least stopping when the initial funds, set aside for gambling, have been exhausted is a reasonable idea, in battling addiction. As you said, any gambler that's self-conscious of his gambling self-concept will not regret gambling, for any reason whatsoever. Some gamblers even when they can't afford to play, try as much as possible to do anything within their jurisdiction, including borrowing, to gamble. And if a gambler stops to regret his bad habit, I think he's already on his way to addiction.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.
Regretting and being angry with the person who introduced you to gambling will not have any good impact on you, if you feel that after getting to know gambling it makes your life difficult then leave it but if it is also difficult to do because maybe you are already at the addiction stage then ask help the people closest to you who you trust to take you to an expert to start counseling so you can get out of addiction, because I'm sure someone who has introduced you to gambling is just doing it accidentally without the intention of making you addicted.

Someone introducing us to gambling may be unintentional, But there are still many cases where they are taking advantage of us. They introduce us to gambling so that they can get referral bonuses. This is deplorable.
But in the end, the fault is still ours. Our money and the right to decide still belong to us. If we are addicted, it is because we cannot control ourselves. What we need to do now is to find a way to escape addiction. Asking the closest person to help us is a perfect way because people with an addiction will not be able to escape their gambling addiction on their own.

Yeah you read the question correctly.

I got this taught while involved in discussion with some of my friend today, it was round of friends and we were practically catching up after some old memories in high school so discussion led to discussion and the issue of regretting to ever knowing how to gamble came up and believe me it was a very serious issue as one of my friend was practically blaming the other for the whole problem is currently going through right now as he constantly gambles his money away and at what avail? was the question being asked to the friend who actually inviting him to a gambling house during highschool. The matter looks childish  at first because the whole table of friends there were all gamblers including myself but we all never reached the height of complaining or blaming someone for our gambling ethics.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

It is not really any different than regretting drinking alcohol or smoking. If you have a weak personality you will get addicted addicted to something else if it is not gambling. There are many other bad habits in the world. Gambling is just one. Drugs are also have millions of victims all around the world. These people also say the same thing probably. "I wish I never knew about this shiet."  

I also learned about gambling in high-school. At first it looked like I could get rich of it by outsmarting the others but guess what, i was too stupid to realize that I was the one getting outsmarted. The sooner a person solves this mystery, the faster he will realize this simple fact: You can't get rich from gambling.

We all here have memories here from our time at school, whether they were good or bad impressions, whether gambling impressions or other things, regardless of who taught them in the past, let's just say that at that time our minds and thoughts at school were immature, maybe it's something rational, we don't need to blame our friends or other people for our activities, even though currently gambling cannot be separated.

Quote
Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling?

I don't regret it, because unlike before and now, there are many people who are successful in everything, even though they knew about gambling before, The point is to keep thinking professionally, of course that has passed in the past, now we have mature minds to choose what is best or bad for them, there is no one to blame each other.

Why do we see gambling as a bad thing, I believe nobody forced down gambling on anyone with a knife to gamble by force, it was a voluntary act and you love it, don't you? Why regret now or fume about it, even if you ever had the passion wrongly, it should have died by now I think. Most of the time when I see people complain about gambling this and that, it's always people who thought they could make a fortune from it but were disappointed because they didn't win anything as they expected it.

Gambling can be brutal, just yesterday here I had about 3 bets each including Manchester United, one with Home over 0.5 goals, which means I expected them to score at least a goal because they are at home which will be at an advantage for them to fight back, I had another one with a win or draw as double chance, the third one with Bournemouth with under 2.5 because I don't expect them to have more than  3 goals in old Strafford but guess what, they disappointed me big time and I am ashamed to ever trust Manchester United but did I regret ever selecting them, No because that is what any sports bettor would have thought but it is what it is because I'm going to try today result. It's fun though because I don't know what else I will be doing with free time if not for gambling because I'm introverted these days.

No!
Because I discovered gambling with freebitco.in and I confess that it was a very good time when I won a lot of money, it was my gateway to the crypto world.
I know, we can't consider that site exactly as a game of chance (mainly because at the time it was just a faucet), but I complement my answer by saying that I've never been a game addict who lost a lot of money or time on it.
So, gambling is a moment of leisure for me and I would certainly be spending that money and time on other equally "futile" things if I hadn't discovered gambling.

Gambling hasn't brought anything bad into my life or routine, I don't regret having known about it.

Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling? The simple answer is yes, especially when you have a lost streak and never win.  Grin oh everyone here might now how it feel and at the moment like that there is a glimpse of "why I'm doing this. This is bad for me " etc. at least that is how i feel it. It can be different tho for someone else.

But you can also feel like "God Damn it. This is crazy I can make 100$ in less than an hour" so yeah sometime Regret sometimes feel gambling is right.  Grin Grin

Yeah you read the question correctly.
Many addicted gamblers who have lost a lot to gambling will be the ones to regret most of their decision to start gambling because of the looses it has put them and how it has badly affected their lives. For any gambler that has benefited like winning a very big amount of money that changed their life, they will always bless the day that they knew what gambling is and the day they started playing. The person with regret is always the person with a bad experience.
Yet, they decided to gamble which means that they are willing to try unfortunately, they are not lucky and lose their money. But if they were too lucky at that time, I was expecting that they would say thank you to the person who introduced gambling.

Honestly, we don't need to regret or blame someone for our losses because at the time to decide to gamble, we think that it is okay until we find it wrong.
And because of these social media influencers showing big winnings, we also then think that we can also win that amount. Unfortunately, gambling doesn't guarantee winnings but many people try to chase their luck, gamble more, and lose more.

For a person to go back to the beginning and start blaming the person who introduced him to an online casino, he is a very angry man who couldn't move on. I would also assume this man lost everything from his house, and car, and his own family ditched him for his addiction. Maybe the person who introduced him to gambling has this intention that that person has taken his wife.

Sounds like a Korean movie already.

But, just because I would have been richer, or spent it somewhere else doesn't mean I regret this decision neither, I am quite happy about the fact that I am gambling because I am having fun and I have always said to myself that whatever amount I am losing, unless it's more than I agreed to at the start, then I am going to be fine about it because it's money that I am spending to have fun. Think about it like some guy going to football games every week, he spends some money and has fun, so do I.
Agree with you, that's the correct mindset, let's just say we are paying for something fun, whether it's watching a football match or going to an entertainment venue, so there must be a budget for that and we will definitely lose money just to get entertainment, for example going to watch football costs it cost $100 to buy tickets for other necessities and it was spent without any regrets as long as it was fun.

$ 100 is used to gamble but regret it even though it should not be much different when we spend $ 100 on gambling even though it is a different place but if our mindset continues to equate it as entertainment we will definitely not regret it, this does not mean throwing away $ 100 with It's easy, what this means is that gamblers should consciously not regret any of their losses if that has become their regular daily gambling budget. always remember that gambling is only for entertainment, not to make money.

in the first place, if you really do not want to gamble is up to you. there's no one to blame on your habits but yourself. maybe somebody introduced gambling to you, but at the end of the day, the decision will still come from you. if you are firm with your decision, no one can change your chosen route.

No, I won't blame anyone for introducing me to gambling. As a kid it became part of our lifestyle like every fun we will have there's a bet that was included so I can say it was part of growing up. It will depend on each person with how he will absorb it. Some people are too absorbed in it that they forget it's a high risk kind of game that needs some careful handling while others do think it's just an addition to their entertainment.
There are cases of addiction but like I said, it depends on an individual with how he can control it.
I don't regret knowing about gambling because it somehow improved the entertainment factor of the sports that I love. But I bet as moderate as possible so that I won't get too hooked with it.
Same here, I said to myself that if ever I experiencing huge losses and negative side effects of gambling, I will not blame the person who taught me about it because afterall, It's all your decisions. they are out of whatever is happening to you unless up until now they influence you to gamble more but whatever the reason is, It's your choice, decisions and will to decline everything they offer to you.

Basically for the initial stage I think all gamblers must have an agreement with themselves about readiness for whatever good or bad possibilities will occur, especially defeat, or you can say that you must be able to become a responsible gambler by bringing the right understanding so that you can accept whatever results will befall you when you are involved. And also on the other hand it is true as you say, this is a choice and everything is up to you, after all there are also many who gamble but do not feel the downturn like you feel, and that means there is something wrong with what you are doing, it can be in terms of gambling goals or the way you gamble.

Even if you come with someone's invitation in the end you can't fully blame that person, because after all this all happens with the consent of yourself most of the responsibility you will bear yourself, the bad effects of gambling are very common and I think from the beginning you should have known the negative side, and if you really don't know about all the risks involved in gambling then it seems like you are not smart enough to think by coming only because you see the chances of winning and without thinking or just suspecting about what negative effects are there and which will very likely happen.

Not really, I would say it would have been a better life for sure because I have lost some decent amount of money gambling and if I didn't know gambling then I would have owned that money, would have probably spent it on something else by now and not save it.

But, just because I would have been richer, or spent it somewhere else doesn't mean I regret this decision neither, I am quite happy about the fact that I am gambling because I am having fun and I have always said to myself that whatever amount I am losing, unless it's more than I agreed to at the start, then I am going to be fine about it because it's money that I am spending to have fun. Think about it like some guy going to football games every week, he spends some money and has fun, so do I.
By not regretting it, we can accept the information given to us so that we can process the information about gambling. Actually, when we get information about gambling, we can think about what impact it will have on us so that we can decide whether to continue gambling or leave gambling when we haven't gone too far in gambling.

That is why when making a decision, whether it is gambling or not, we must be responsible for that decision. And if we decide to gamble, it means we are ready to take the risk and are able to bear whatever will happen to us in the future. By always considering everything carefully, we will not go the wrong way after making that decision because we know that gambling is dangerous if we don't have good self-control. And when we know what the risks and dangers are, we can be careful so that we can avoid danger and the risks will not increase too high.

I don't regret it, and if I tried playing gambling here in the crypto space, then it's another choice of mine why I did it. Though, even though the bottom line was that I was just jealous of a close friend of mine who often wins, I still don't regret it, to be honest.

Then one, gambling can only do two things to us: first, we become bad or we remain good. And so far, I haven't experienced being addicted to it because I know that it's not good, but it's also good because my reason for gambling is just to have fun and nothing else.

Its matter of choice and same of you I don't regret to know gambling  since from here we can relieve our stress for long day of work and monitoring the market moves. You will just regret it once you do to much about it and lose a lot of money. But if you are careful enough to know the worse about it and also know your priorities in life for sure you will never came to the point that  we will hare or regret about that.

 I guess its just people emotion since maybe they are just frustrated with the result they encounter but once they get over with it and move on for sure they find gambling as fun space for them to enjoy. So we just need to be much careful dealing with it and always have plan regarding on the amount we used intended for gambling to have system in terms on our spending.
There would be no regrets if you do find yourself not to be addicted with it. People do usually ends up on regretting on the time that they are experience those hardship but when its not then they dont really care at all.In my case, i didnt regret on knowing gambling because it do really makes me enjoy specially when making up some bets and i dont see anything wrong with betting
as long you do make yourself that having that good control with your finances. Regrets do always come at the end and if you arent that careful when it comes to your actions then
you would really be able to experience these kind of disasters. You would really be that making yourself that experience those unfortunate events and this is why you should really be
careful on the things that you are dealing with.

No, fortunately the first time I found out about gambling, I didn't immediately try it, even though at that time there was a high level of interest and hope of getting the jackpot like the one in the advertisement. However, after reading various sharing and experiences, it turns out that maybe 99% of it is just a dream that rarely comes true. And then I felt and realized that my luck was not that good. Therefore, from the start, we didn't really go into the deeper realm of gambling, just for fun with a limited budget.

The point is that whatever we know, as long as we can control ourselves and manage ourselves, it will protect us from excessive interest or in this case gambling addiction. In fact, what is dangerous here is the addiction to gambling, because if you are addicted, it will really affect many things, not only our way and quality of gambling, but also the risks are too big. Usually we will find it difficult to control ourselves again and manage risks if we start to become addicted. because we will always feel that we have almost won and will win. So, make sure we are careful so as not to contract this addiction.
