Should we be disciplined in gambling, does it mean that we are better at gambling, or that we put less money at stake with more enjoyment, less fear, adrenaline, etc. ?
When we implement morality and other stuff for your kids you will teach them the qualities of life and discipline means you live a pious life without hurting anyone and have a good life but what is discipline when it comes to gambling the only thing that comes to mind is never to gamble with the money you cannot afford and there are many assholes who take a loan and gamble the money.

Gamblers give no importance to the maintenance but it is the most important thing a gambler should know. Working hard really matters just don’t give up and keep gambling. A gambler must have command over gambling. We should join good gambling places. You should follow the market moves and be disciplined.
I think this things as easier said than done and from my observation a lot of advisers aren't even good gamblers or not even as disciplined as they claim to be.In my opinion, there are no rules to gambling. It is important to gamble freely and gladly but with wisdom. The wise will know when a game should be paused, when they have to quit and when it is necessary to increase a bet. This has nothing to do with written rules.

I have been gambling for as long as I can remember and I can't remember ever reading or studying rules, I have only learnt to apply wisdom in playing and this has greatly been of help. I am not saying discipline is not important in gambling, a wise person would definitely be disciplined since they are both work hand in hand.

discipline i think dont help too much in gambling because itll wont make you win when you wanted to win big because you are controlling yourself to bet more or to bet big   .
this is not about winning, discipline means you have the control over your behavior to avoid further losses in the long run, it seems you misunderstand the whole thing here.
Point taken. No doubt that with limiting yourself from betting big won't pretty much do any help to make you win big. But gambling is not always about winning big. There's also a side to it of minimizing loss.

Obviously, we all want to win big, like jackpot big to the extent that we forget that we also need to consider the idea of minimizing our losses. We just allow ourselves to be taken over by greed not knowing that as we let that happen, we also let ourselves lose money that we cannot afford to lose. And that's where discipline comes in—controlling ourselves thus reducing the amount of our loss. And I think, in the end, it's better to win small rather than to lose big.

a strong character knows how to accept defeat whether if its small or huge  . strong character does not limit himself to gamble because if he do that , that will only make him afraid to loose or weak when it comes to risking himself on playing a gambling  .


Strong character also knows when to stop, it doesn't always mean that you have to be brave on taking the risk, it is about how you analyze the situation to figure out what is the best thing to do.

Control could help you in so many ways, and without a doubt, it could be your way on winning in gambling, it might not be a big jackpot win, but if you are going to add your winnings in gambling, that will be still big as jackpot.

It is okay to be brave in taking risk but know your limitations. Limitations meaning you have to know when to stop if you have to, being brave is not enough if you want to succeed, one should also have discipline while gambling because if you only have bravery then tendency is you will keep on betting without really realizing that its not the right path anymore. Having discipline does not only prevent a gambler to addiction but it can help a gambler maintain it's focus towards that game and when a gambler has focus then he/she can make the best strategy and is successful.

I also don't really understand why discipline can help you in gambling because when you play gambling, you only determine your victory or defeat when you start. the thing that might really help you in this regard is your readiness in losing your assets  Tongue
You should learn to be a Gambler first before commenting such stupid message,why not try to read at least few post above you to find what others says and you might find ideas about what discipline can do for a gamblers success or failure

It won’t make you win ,but it will help you also to lose small amount if you know how to manage and being disciplined

This depends heavily on the personality of a person,people like militaries can quit gambling more easily than a drunk person for example.Having said this though keep in mind that gambling can remove your personality within minutes if you are not careful and we have also seen suicide stories because of gambling so surely control can help but in gambling you really never know until you try.

Once we enter gambling, we must already know the risk especially when losing stake is already starting while playing. So, discipline is the best armour we can have when we already know we are already losing when playing. Discipline is depended on us on how we will discipline ourselves, like, less our bet or maybe less your times of joining games. We must know our weaknesses when it comes in gambling especially being greedy.

I got that experience before. I say to myself that I need to stop after 30 minutes in a gambling game. But the fact, I even continue playing gambling until 1 hour hahaha. The first time I gamble, I don't manage my time so many times I played more than 1 hour, but then I realize that I need to change my time in the gambling game. So I start to control myself in gambling. I learn about discipline in gambling because it is hard for me to stop the feeling of playing more.

After practice in many days, I slowly can manage myself and handle it without a problem. Yes, discipline will help you to follow the schedule you make so you can stop at any time without a problem. With practicing discipline every day, you will have the power to yourself to limit the time in anything, not just in gambling.
I have also been through this and I can relate absolutely. I think there is just a mystery behind this game we are yet to uncover because I can longer recall the number of times I tell myself I would be timely and more calculative in playing and I end up derailing and this can be very disappointing.

In trying to be disciplined we should learn to be appreciative of the time already spent on the game and the amount won or yet to be won because that's how we can be disciplined and understand when to say no. Gambling is seriously addictive, there was a time in my life I couldn't stay 5 minutes without been on a game either on my PC or phone. I didn't see anything wrong with this at first but eventually, I admitted it wasn't a normal habit and I gradually helped myself out of the addiction

What exactly does it mean to discipline yourself in gambling (in the narrow sense)?
Should we be disciplined in gambling, does it mean that we are better at gambling, or that we put less money at stake with more enjoyment, less fear, adrenaline, etc. ?
Me interested in answering the last question?


Controling your self is the one you need in gambling. You need discipline in gambling does not mean you are be a good gambler? No discipline can give you a control to your self and you can enjoy gambling if you have discipline. Many are getting addicted in gambling because they are lack of self discipline.

I realized how adrenaline gives off a great feeling when gambling. Especially when you are making a long winning streak, the feeling is that you are so powerfully lucky that you can easily beat the house, and you want to mock and laugh at it. And when the losses are taking over the winning streaks, you will feel so challenged that you want to continue betting and rolling, you want to put the house in a ridiculous position. In the end, you will find yourself losing and left with nothing. Adrenaline is fun but surely a killer in gambling.
I am more on the opposite side, when I am winning, I always think of stopping but when I am losing, I can't control myself because I want to chase my loses and this results to bigger loses. This attitude is still within me and I know without self discipline, I might be able to experience more loses that could put myself into bankruptcy considering the worst case scenario.

How strong does a character need to be to set aside some amount of money on a weekly gamble?
What needs to happen to make it happen?
Does the great loss solidify our character?

Enjoy is always there. But money isn't. Yes happiness is something we cannot buy anywhere but that doesn't prove that we have to over enjoy everything. Happiness know no boundaries but money knew, it has a limit and we have to remember it. That is why discipline exist not to be a hindrance for our enjoyment but to notice us to act properly and exactly to what we can really afford.

The question is, does gambling have to do anything yo improve one's self or to practice discipline? I think it should be the other way around. If you're a well disciplined person, then gambling ways and routines shouldn't be a problem at all. Knowing limits and priorities are automatic for a disciplined person and yes, it helps in basically everything including gambling.

You are right, it should be other way around. Disciplined person is already a developed person, someone who have experience and knowledge. That kind of person will not rush into gambling with all the money, he will check the games, he will try some things, generally he will not lose a head after few loses, disciplined man knows his limits and his wishes!
I`m not saying that is hard to sharpen yourself with gambling, but that`s a hard task due so many variables in gambling.
You can be a 100 times disciplined player and only once succumb to excitement, which will lead to large losses for the budget. Because any player in certain circumstances may lose control of their emotions.

Discipline really is what a gambler needed to have a strong mentality over a lossing streak. Yes you get excited whenever you win multiple time but you would also want to regain your money if you loss. That's why without disciple, a gambler would end up broke and lossing everything just to win back what he lost.

How strong does a character need to be to set aside some amount of money on a weekly gamble?

You just need to be mature, think of your wants and needs, and your responsibilities as well.

What needs to happen to make it happen?

Simple, this answers your last question, you have to be well disciplined, if not, you know what will happen.

Does the great loss solidify our character?

Nope, it's like "age doesn't define maturity" your losses will define who you are depends on what approach you are going to do next.

What exactly does it mean to discipline yourself in gambling (in the narrow sense)?

Quit gambling, if you are not winning, winning once is not counted.

Should we be disciplined in gambling, does it mean that we are better at gambling, or that we put less money at stake with more enjoyment, less fear, adrenaline, etc. ?

I am sure that a disciplined person is a real professional gambler.  In my understanding, adhere to discipline, this is primarily when a gambler adheres to certain unwritten rules, the framework of which he never violates on his personal convictions.  Not only in gambling, but also in any life situations, you can repeatedly be convinced that if a person goes beyond what is permitted, then the discipline of his perception of the situation is violated and very serious problems appear.  I believe that gambling is no exception.

aside from setting up some money to gamble , a stong character/gambler should also know how to set his own limits ( e.g set and pick a time of the day to gamble )  . we dont need to loss/big just to make our character improve because we can always improve right at the start but the most common that happen is that many gambler will only adjust once they loss  .  to the last question , i think you already answered it  . that should descipline gambler means .

I think mature gambler does,not unless they learned nothing from the beginning and until now they are a possessive gamblers then they are not part of this topic because they have no future at all

What we are talking here are those gamblers that willing or ready to accept being disciplined and don’t wanna risk all their life just to play this continuously losing game.

Yeah it’s hard to follow,but if willingness and dedication combined?for sure they can managed to have that kind of life in treating gambling

snip..
as I know, discipline in gambling is not greedy. Stop when the money runs out and know when to stop.. I've seen greedy people destroyed by themselves, they borrow money and even sell private assets when they lose just to gamble and stay for days without knowing the time at the gambling table..  we must be really good at controlling ourselves when gambling, don't be curious and greedy when you lose, just be sure that in the future luck will be with you.
When someone gets into gambling for the very first time, surely he'll be lucky to get a bigger profit out of gambling. People easily get into greed, by this time very few get to understand the start and stop point of gambling. Most gets to miss the chance out of the greed, another thing very few get to know about money management. From my learning keeping ourselves self controlled is really a tough task with gambling. This happens when we continue to loss. Good is to have a break for the moment and continue to gamble. With gambling discipline is a must, than that we need to be clear on our necessity and the possibility through gambling.
I don't think everyone is destined to win his first bet. This also poss’ that he loses and being honest, it is better for a gambler to lose his very first game. But then your words also hold some truth. House tries to gain trust of his customers at first by making them happy with wins. No matter what the circumstances are, a gambler should always put a limit to his gambling habit and the money used.

Well that's right a solid answer, that's why a person with discipline will not just play without thinking but in other opinion, im not saying gambling is totally bad or dirty but if a person that have discipline will not play gambling why? Well because as you've said that person will not rush and think first, so that person will not play gambling at all because he/she's going to think a head on what consequences might be or it is have a good impact or bad impact to it's self or maybe to it's family.
You can't simply think that those people never engage in gambling, they could still be but they set their limitations and strictly follow on that. Not they look gambling as an opportunity to gain instant profit but instead, they'll just probably trying to be one of them and feel the difference when spend a lot time here rather than to be having a stable job.
Yes that's right we cant blame people that cant live a day without gambling or im sure all people experience gambling at least once in their life, and maybe some treat gambling as entertainment to lessen their stress or kill some time.
