Topic: Do you set a specific bankroll before gambling or not? - page 2. (Read 2527 times)

Maybe we already have experienced using entire deposit in one day so that makes us become wiser to gambling. We don't want to have the same experienced as before so we will be careful and always manages our bet. Play a little will be enough for us especially if we don't like a big lose comes to us.

Settng a specific bankroll at least can help us to manage the deposit money we have. We will not place more than the deposit because that can make us forget to stop gambling. The more we gamble, the more the chance we lose the money so we must control ourselves.

We must obey our strictly rules to manage our bankroll. Besides that, by having a specific bankroll will gives us understanding that we only gambling with some enough money.

I hope you have a strong patience not just in gambling but in other things.

Train our patience will help us in all things so we can manage our emotion not becoming higher. We can also think wise based on the situation and will not make us in a bad situation. Maybe gambling has a positive side but we know that not many people can get that instead use a wrong way to treat gambling. They don't see that gambling is only for have fun and entertain themselves but they think that gambling is a way to make money. That will be a wrong thinking from them so must change it immediately.

That's why I said this gambling is one of the things I use to train my own patience, maybe this is only done by a few people but I'm sure everyone has one activity that they do to train their own patience, whether it's online or real. In addition, with good patience, of course there will be no excessive behavior such as allocating funds beyond our own abilities or exceeding the limits set as you said.
And actually I think gambling also has a positive side, but with so many people doing it wrong, this is what makes gambling bad in the eyes of many people, even though gambling is not that bad. I agree with what you said, we must be able to try to gamble sufficiently to avoid greater losses not only in terms of money but also in other things, because when gambling is done excessively  losses can occur not only in terms of finances, but also mental, health or even relationships.

I won't accept entirely that bankroll is basically used in sport betting alone because at some point you have to arrived at a conclusion of the fact that bankroll is basically applicable to all, because it is only at that point that one can make an attempt to control your gambling urge, this is why you have to set a bankroll at each of the point you set to gamble.


Bankroll is basically a term use to source and control the amount of financial involvement while gambling.

This is basically the very first thing one should do else you will barely have control over the amount of money that you would risk.
I don't wager more than 10% of my account balance in order to stay protected, I usually first go with 5% then get to increase it way up to 10% depending on the amount of odd given, also if I have some loses then I may go up a bit to do 10% to try catch a recovery game opportunity.

because I've been in that position and it makes me think not to be a person who is destroyed because of silly things. many people are similar but they have a hard time stopping and seeing that I really feel sorry, because there is not enough advice given to get healthy again. experienced people will understand better the attitude that must be applied in the world of gambling. now I just enjoy it as entertainment and allocate entertainment with money that is ready to be lost and do not mind

Yes, I think you are one of the gamblers who have a pretty good mindset by thinking long term and prioritizing your long-term safety so that you focus more on implementing many precautions than gambling blindly, and of course that's what a gambler should do.
Being wise and always considering rationally before you make a decision is a good approach, because when you think with common sense then you will most likely really know what is best for you to do and usually you will only make realistic decisions.
On the other hand, the biggest reason why we should treat gambling with great caution is because gambling has the potential to have a very bad impact on our finances and mentality, and it has been proven that quite a lot of gamblers have experienced this slump.

This is what happened to me as well, I ended up not caring about how much I was gambling and lost a lot when I first started gambling, which is why now I have a limit and I deposit a set amount every month. This means, if I end up losing all of the deposit in the first day of the month then I will wait until the end of the month to deposit again next month, and if it means I do not have to deposit and keep winning then maybe I won't even deposit again for a full month afterwards, which is great.

But, I never deposit twice in the same month, because I try to avoid these type of losses, if you chase your loss then the result will not be good at all and you are going to regret this decision and shouldn't decide your future. I did this once, and I am not going to do the same mistakes again. If you could learn how to gamble without losing too much money then you start to realize gambling isn't a harmful vice, gambling is a fun hobby which you can enjoy.

This is a great piece of advice about not going to extremes and necessarily losing the entire deposit in one day or winning the jackpot. I play a little when I think it is necessary or, for example, when there are big championships in the sports that I like and that is enough. But all players are different and everyone behaves differently due to their established temperament, some do not even understand that because of this they will never be able to control themselves, no matter what attempts they make. It is simply better for some not to touch anything gambling at all, because they are unstable, and accordingly, they will not be able to strictly adhere to the bankroll.

although it is natural but not everyone can do it, most of them prefer carelessness that makes them comfortable. although aware of the situation that occurs, their logic is less used, they take refuge from pearls of wisdom but are hypocritical with great false hopes in their minds. the destruction that befell them will come when logic is born again. the right thing is they let the money go with sufficient limits and not excessively, if they still hope to beat gambling they are still careless.

Yes, it is not easy but if we can practice that over and over, we will  have a good chance to have patience. That will help us to control ourselves and will not pass the limit that we set it up. With patience, good control, and discipline, we will not lose too much money more than our bankroll because we will always aware if we almost reach that amount.

Our goals in gambling is just to enjoy our time by playing gambling and not because of win the money. So we can stop gambling when we almost reach our limits. We will think that we can continue playing gambling in the other days and not have to use all of the money we have in that day.

We remember that playing gambling needs to be moderately to prevent the big lose.

Another thing is to set the initial capital before gambling, this is probably done by everyone but the difference is when you have got the results that occur, for example the results that occur are clear defeats that make players lose money in their gambling, and maybe for players who do not or do not have enough experience they will not be able to control themselves by going back to gambling again because they do not accept the reality that the money they bet is lost.
You are right, what you said is actually no need for prior experience in gambling, also beginners do not mean having to seek experience in gambling by gambling excessively, that is not a solution and not a way to do it. With those who are new to gambling, they should know the risks and bad impacts that will occur if their gambling is done excessively

I'm not sure though, in my end, when I do go out an play in land base casinos, most of the time, I went over budget, Lol, maybe I was just really enjoying the atmosphere and having fun with your friends and families. But at least it's manageable though, I mean I don't like overbudget x2 of my initial capital.

But if I play online, specially with crypto, I have a budget, and If I win I withdraw everything obviously and enjoy it. However, I think for addicted gamblers, gonna be hard to control for sure as they their mentality is very different from those who are playing to have some fun after a week or two.

I admit that it is indeed not easy to train patience, especially with gambling, emotions can usually increase, but it also depends on us who have goals. When I first got to know gambling and gambled, I was most likely to always experience uncontrolled emotions, but with an incident that made me aware that until now I gamble properly. And setting limits on all corners is also good, emotions can be maintained very well. This is a very good improvement.

You must be able to control everything very well, for better goals in the future. With what you have experienced, you often lose money and maybe in large amounts, you must be able to learn from it, and think about how to minimize it, you must know how yourself because all decisions are up to ourselves.

Yes, of course, if everyone wants to play, they will definitely determine the amount they spend when playing. What you said is true, if we experience defeat in several rounds and our capital is eroded, it is better for us to stop playing for a moment, even though we have exerted our abilities in each round and in the end defeat continues to come to us. I think it is not recommended that if we continue to deposit again, don't force ourselves too much to chase losses or reverse the previous capital that has been lost.

Its a common sense thing and no one really like on messing up their lives or their future because of some financial devastation because of too much gambling because of having those delusional approach.
We do know that each person does have their own thinking and on how they would really be trying out to deal up things basing up into the things that they do have in mind.
Setting out bankroll is really that too basic but there are tons of people who do really failed out on doing so just because they've been just that too positive that they could really be able to beat up gambling or betting on which sooner or later, they would really be making out those kind of realizations that it was never been worth on trying out to deal up with things which it cant be possible
specially in speaking about luck based dealing.

I am a gambler and like to bet but I always prioritize a good future. so that my life condition is maintained mentally, common sense and family communication is always well maintained. because people who understand will do the same thing. being wise in playing betting will foster perfect control. managing the allocation of betting money is very important

But that will not easy to train patience in gambling as the emotion can increase anytime following our results. We can lose our patience when we lose our money many times because that happen to me

But with setting a bankroll and trying to control ourselves, I can reduce my losses but still enjoy my gambling time. That is better for me because I don't lose much money like before. But I  know that needs to be discipline to always stick to my bankroll management to prevent the big lose.

This is simply brilliant! The more we are prepared, the better for us. We should not just prepare but prepare mentally, financially, and skill-wise etc, which are what would help us to know the right gambling system, budget, management and plans that would coordinate all that we know to help us risk and still keep our gambling account safe. Discipline is also important here, you will always be tempted to go astray from what you know or plan to do as time goes on, that is gambling for you. But with discipline and determination, you will always stick to your plan and eventually prevail.

the experience of a lesson will not be doubtful and make sure with the truth with logic growing well, the test can be our identity stronger when hit by a storm but not carelessly. but experience is very difficult to accept people who have not felt the test of their destruction, they avoid it by having to happen first before making believe. so that it does not happen with destruction again. start by managing finances, betting allocation strategies well

Setting bankrolls before gambling is essential because it helps to maintain your incomes and savings without disruptions to achieve your goals.

To me the 5% to 10% should be a maximum but there are circumstances bettors could be occupied with financial response which then may even demand lower percents like the 5% and the 10% because there are more other financial responsibilities to deal with than the gambling which may lead to lost of our funds at the course of chasing funs or profits instead of using it to solve the present challenges.

We as gamblers really need to be careful with our bankrolls so that we don't get carried away.
