Topic: Do you stop gambling in a time of crisis? - page 2. (Read 1805 times)
It's really hard to stop when you are addicted to such a thing, because it has been your daily activity for long. But considering our current circumstances right now, we should know how to stop ourselves from further losses. We need to have some grown-up plan and some savings to stock some important things like food and medicines. let's put aside our bad habit and starting today, let's think of our family. In that way, we can stop our self from gambling and we can also provide for our family even though a little help, it will count as we are contributing.
These days we're suffering an economic global crisis and in my case, I do stop gambling. For some, no one can stop doing it because they are financially supported. So it really depends on a person capable to do gambling when crisis happens.
Even a certain person is financially capable to do gambling but if gambling places were closed then he wont have any choice but to take a breakunless if he do consider on playing online then no one can stop him but the thing here is that not all physical places gamblers do prefer on
playing online for some due reason.
If our resources is only little and will support your family enough then why consider gambling when there is a chance that your family will be Hungry if you risk the money ,i think better not to gamble and just focus in real life chances and not by luck.
practicality wise?make living easy without gambling ,there are no much happy if you and family is full and not being hungry specially in crisis .
Its just a dumb thing for you to decide if you do risk up your families survival just to fulfill your satisfaction of your gambling addiction.practicality wise?make living easy without gambling ,there are no much happy if you and family is full and not being hungry specially in crisis .
You are an irresponsible father and a husband on that case.
And besides irresponsible gamblers is what they are so there's nothing new with that.
It is global crisis si yes. I will stop gambling for a while.
This crisis that we are facing right now it affects my business and also the income of my family and we needed the money specially this coming months.
Yups and you can do other things for a while like having time with your love ones and just come back playing when the crisis ends. This crisis that we are facing right now it affects my business and also the income of my family and we needed the money specially this coming months.
Well, it depends on case to case basis, how People have their different nature and they have a different perspective in living. That means that with the situation about the COVID where everyone is in their respective homes, there is a possibility that one could just stay and watch the news and others are feeling bored. Good thing that we have a lot of gambling sites online that offer cryptocurrency for us to bet, this boredom will not be a problem at all.
For me, I still play despite of the situation, and I think my playing rate gets higher as I don't have nothing to do aside from reading on our forum, so, that leads me to enjoy playing more, but what good is that I know when to stop playing especially if am near to breaking my limitation.

Indeed, it depends.
If you are considering your fiat money as your gambling fund and there is a strong economic crisis happening where your income is impacted negatively then you are going to decrease your gambling activity.
If you consider your crypto money as your crypto fund and you have dedicated a portion of them for your gambling activity then you might be happy with a downfall of the market prices as you will bet with less money that has a potential to grow in value in the near future.

Guys, in moments such this we are living, with a crisis just ahead of all of us, do you stop gambling?
In my case I have to admit that I will stop for a while.
When I see some crisis or a decrease of my salary (I have my own business), I immediately cut some stuff and gamble are one of the first I stop, like going out and trips too
So, what's your opinion?
Yes I will, there are already a lot of real life casino gambling that are temporarily banned by the authorities to avoid crowded places because the virus can easily transfer to the people especially if it is crowded places and as we all know real life casino gambling is always a crowded place. I prefer to play online gambling as of now to prevent interacting with other people. In my case I have to admit that I will stop for a while.

So, what's your opinion?
Yes I will stop gambling because of being afraid to get the virus, playing in real life casino is not advisable as of now, as what we are facing right now, it is really alarming because the virus can transfer so easily to you especially when you are around to the infected person, so what I do now is I play online gambling, even though it is not that so happy playing online gambling, I would still choose it compared to real life gambling to prevent interacting with other people. In my case I have to admit that I will stop for a while.

I realized something though.
I gamble online after my job. When the pandemic started affecting our country and working home is in effect, it is hard to gamble online and I feel like I am bored doing it for a longer time, it is like I got tired of gambling. I am not addicted, I do it for fun and well, the idea of me gambling doesn't really change but while in quarantine I just got tired of it though I still do my job properly. I don't know how that happened, maybe some of you felt the same?

I agree, I see nothing wrong with having enjoyment from gambling as long as someone knows the risks. The problem is someone that can't control themselves. I think if momeybis an issue during this time then people should stop, but if nothing has changed for someone and they enjoy it then it is not wrong to continue.
Yes, you are right. Many people become addicted to gambling because they lost control when they played. They tempted with their greediness, so that makes them play more and more and try to win the games. No matter if we are in the crisis or not, we must control ourselves in gambling because we cannot always win the game, but we can get the loss many times.
During this time, people who play gambling at casino needs to stop from playing gambling because many casinos have shut down temporarily, and that is a prevention to avoid the virus spreads to many people. It is better for them if they can stop for a while, and that can be the way for them to reduce their time in gambling, and they can stay at homes with their family.

So, what's your opinion?
I only gamble the extra money that I have so in times of crisis like this one, I will surely stop gambling if I have no extra money. Gambling is only good if you have nothing to do and you have extra money in your wallet or account but if you are going to gamble the money that are allocated for your needs then it is not a good idea. In my case I have to admit that I will stop for a while.

This time of crisis like a total lock-down will happen within a month or more than, then it is best to save up any money that you have and stop/pause your gambling session so you are prepared to what happen in the future and for you to sustain also your needs.
It depends on the person if they are really addicted to gambling even in a crisis situation they can still use the money provided for their daily needs. I know many people that they work for gambling and that they do not care about their families and that their lives will eventually be ruined and gambling addicts should avoid it.
That's the very reason why we need to avoid being gambling addict when your very own family is already suffering from it. I think on my end, it is ok be a gambler as long as you are not affecting other people's lives and you still know yourself. But if others are at stake other than your life, I believe this is the time that you need to re-assess your situation. If you still need to follow your gambling impulses or your family's future?

I personally had so much to think about during this time that it was basically impossible for me to think about gambling. I really wanted to get some sort of games going around so I can watch them and feel a bit relaxed but they are cancelled as well. People talk about the gambling but I really miss just getting few beers sitting in front of my tv and basically going numb for couple hours while watching the games, that was my relaxation, now thats gone and I have to find something else.
In any case, I do not think about gambling, that wasn't even remotely in my mind, I think about all the ways I might be screwed financially because of this corona virus thing and how much it may affect me, when you consider stuff like that, you are literally in no position to think about which game you want to gamble.
On contrary I think people gamble more in times like this, maybe not too much but people who are really hardcore gamblers must be gambling even harder, people who didn't had time because they had to take care of stuff like work or job or their business and whatever that goes outside and does something and come home to gamble, will now have all the time in the world to gamble.
Definitely, there could be some gamblers who stopped during this time but the hardcore ones must be cover the difference and then some when they gamble even more, people who gamble less than 0.01 btc must be not thinking about this right now but people who gamble like 30 btc a month must be gambling like crazy. When you take away all the responsibilities from a gambler and give them all the time in the world, you will get more wagered.

No I only limit it right now I still gamble but only a little unlike before the corona virus spread out.
It is one of my stress reliever and one of the things that I enjoy doing while I have some free time.

Same here, even though the global crisis due to the corona virus does not really affect my life (in case of economical thing) but now I gamble less than what I used to do before.
It is obviously to prepare for the worst case if the global crisis goes even worst unexpectedly.

Well I pretty much exclusively play poker at brick and mortar casinos, so I will certainly be completely stopping that.
That said, I won't be stopping entirely.
I will use this time to finally find out which HUD is the best, and will probably start taking up online Poker.
I've always avoided it since I've heard about the rampant cheating, but I guess it's time to give it a go.
poker and casino in my opinion has its own interests because on the one hand you will definitely feel curious and when gambling in poker and casino there is a pleasure you get when playing it so you will always be interested in poker and casino as it is today. That said, I won't be stopping entirely.

in crisis there is no one is financially supported unless you are a son of a very high profile person or government personality lol.and also there is more important thing to prioritize than gambling in time of crisis,storing foods,and maintaining our family safe and fed.
I see no reason to stop gambling if everything is fine with your financial side. In addition, during a crisis, it can be very pleasant to pass the time for gambling.
BUT the majority has the opposite situation, business is suffering losses due to quarantine, which means that people have less money. Rational use of your resources will help to pass crisis times much easier.

lol "Very Pleasant" to enjoy in gambling while others are starving?why not try to go around and try to help others than spending money to gamble?this ways are more pleasant than gambling IMO.
