We should learn to have patience while gambling, everything is not done well by rushing into it, at the end of being impatient we loose focus and miss out some opportunities out of our carelessness, this same impatient makes some gamblers developed a greedy taste for winning and they keep loosing instead, some decisions when gambling are not expected to be taken in haste conditions but we need to give a more closer and careful look and approach on them before final decision is taken.
I remember my mother's message that if you want to do something, never rush because it won't be good in the end, therefore every time I gamble I don't really want to rush into playing, enjoying the game is something I have fun because my goal is to gamble only just to look for fun and have fun not to multiply money also make money in gambling.

Gambling with a hasty attitude will allow us to lose more opportunities as well as money on the gambling platform, that's why I always advise anyone not to be in a rush in doing anything including gambling, because gambling requires money for betting so make sure to play to enjoy the game because in a hurry you won't be able to enjoy the game too, especially if you lose quickly.

That is why we must always have clear limits when playing gambling and never try to break them. It should be done by everyone who wants to gamble so that they don't tend to let themselves be swayed by emotions for any reason. And if our finances are insufficient, we don't need to play gambling, especially if we see that we are impatient in doing something so that we don't experience problems when gambling. The desire to win at gambling is normal because it also happens to everyone who plays gambling. But we have to look at the reality where many people have tried it but didn't succeed at all and instead had to lose a lot of money before they could win.
in simple terms is always able to control yourself in all matters of emotion. this self-control is able to provide patience in all matters related to gambling and betting.
like what OP did when the withdrawal was not finished he tried to gamble again accidentally started to get emotional and spent the money again.
mature thinking is needed every time in gambling.

People tend to use the word addict as if we were talking about a flu, it comes and goes, and it is not like that, if you are addicted you should not gamble, it is a problem-disorder, then gambling is not the problem, it is the individual.

On the other hand, patience is only one item of several necessary to have a happy gambler life.

The problem is, in gambling it is very complex. not only about addiction, not also a matter of patience or not. it all boils down to each individual, where sometimes there are times when emotions will approach us depending on the conditions and situations when involved in a gambling session. there are times, where we are in trouble either because of deposits or withdrawals with various factors that cause it. it all comes back to us as individuals, where there is always a risk involved. where dopamine will play an important role, where our patience will be tested and at the same time our psychology is disrupted. which in essence, what the OP said in this thread is a commonplace part whether in gambling or other matters.

But overall I agree with what you said, especially regarding the theme of our discussion about patience. Patience is really needed in gambling for gamblers, where when we are experiencing defeat, let alone streaks. there too, patience will be needed to temper our emotions so we don't do things that are out of control. Patience is also useful for me personally when I'm trying to analyze a soccer team that will compete. how should I do, gather all the latest information and then consider it. of course, it requires patience when doing research. one more thing, addiction is an individual problem and as you said. the point is the problem, not in the gambling. therefore, anything that is done in excess is not good. "in this case it's gambling"

"the point is the problem, not in the gambling" however it's the gambling that triggers that problem. Once that gambling becomes that cue, it will always be the initiator of that problem. I am not saying that gambling is bad. I am saying that those people that lose their life once in gambling will more likely to lose their life and funds again gambling. It's not just about the patience but how they see gambling as a whole.

If they always  rush and try to force things down to make things happen immediately. That people lacks patience and they are those who gives their money out to the casinos.

      -  Whether it's a gambling online casino or a landbased casino, it only becomes bad for a gambler if it brings him ugly results. But when it gives a gambler a win, of course it is a good effect of a gamble.

But there are gamblers who have been gambling for a long time but still haven't achieved the winning they are hoping for so they don't stop believing that one day they will recover or even more all of their losses one day.

Indeed.

If a person let his emotions control him, it will be a disaster. When emotions are involved, most people tend to be irrational. Sometimes, people have this tendency to let their urges win because they feel like it's the right thing to do or simply because it will make them happy and satisfied. But sometimes, it shouldn't be tolerated especially when it comes to financial matters. You cannot just follow what you want because it will make you feel better, rather you should prioritize your needs over your wants. In gambling, this applies too. You should only bet according to your financial capability and not according to how you want to.
That is why we must always have clear limits when playing gambling and never try to break them. It should be done by everyone who wants to gamble so that they don't tend to let themselves be swayed by emotions for any reason. And if our finances are insufficient, we don't need to play gambling, especially if we see that we are impatient in doing something so that we don't experience problems when gambling. The desire to win at gambling is normal because it also happens to everyone who plays gambling. But we have to look at the reality where many people have tried it but didn't succeed at all and instead had to lose a lot of money before they could win.
It's normal to have a desire to win, who don't want to, right? However it should not be your main desire when playing since gambling is risky and having an expectation to grow your money would not be right due to the said reason. It is wise to only play using a spare money, so that way even you lose, you'll not have regrets.

Aside from patience to wait for the time that you can withdraw your winnings, it's much important to have self-control. So you can refrain yourself to use your funds to gamble again since the result is not always what you expected it to be.

This topic is already long open and being misunderstood the purpose. The patience he is talking is the wait when your account doesn’t have instant withdrawal. He lose all his profit including bankroll just because he can’t wait to process his withdrawal and continue gambling until he bust.

I see... I did not get clear about the story in the end. He had balance, waited for withdrawal, but still made a deposit. What was that money circulation all about?

Anyway, does it really called patience? Wasnt it simple greed? It would be about patience, if he would hit withdrawal, confirm everything, close browser and wait. Maybe spent more money on CPFP or replace by free to get money quicker. Maybe cancelling previous withdrawal and creating new with a faster withdrawal. Thus made his withdrawal stuck for investigation. That would be the reason to talk about patience and impatience in gambling.

However, while waiting, he decided to win even more, which ended with loosing everything. His story is about greed. Just another 1,000,001 case of one persons greed.

everyone is different.. patience is needed in gambling.. if we win of course we take the prize and leave a little for the deposit.. if we lose we don't need to rush to play again.. wait for the right time to gamble.. keep us away out of greed.. let's just say that we gamble just for entertainment in our spare time

when many people hear that you need to be patient, they think that even when they are losing they should not give up, on the contrary they should keep playing and putting more money to recover the loss, but unfortunately time is just consuming more money and they are psychologically draining and they even become addicted to gambling, but even when they are at rock bottom, they still have the spirit that they must be patient and that eventually they will start winning if they only manage to find out where they are going wrong

what makes it sadder in all of this is that as people don't like to comment or say that they have problems, they don't say that they can't stop playing, they don't say that they need help, so their problem of addiction to video games bad luck will only be discovered after a long time when the situation becomes serious and most of the time it is discovered when it becomes difficult to reverse the bad mental health condition of the person, it may happen that the person goes crazy and is no longer able to speak and think straight due to the fact that I spend many hours with gambling concerns and this serious health condition is difficult to cure

Yes everyone first starts gambling for free time but gradually when he gets addicted to gambling he doesn't know. I started gambling for a little entertainment to spend my free time. I don't like gambling much now because I am a gambler.  I lost a lot of money playing.I was totally addicted to gambling then. So I didn't understand anything then. Now I understand and regret a lot.
I'm sorry to hear that you lost a lot of money, but it believe that some gamblers can actually exercise self-control and avoid falling into addiction. There are various rules you can set for yourself to prevent addiction like for example;

you can establish limits on the amount of money and time you spend gambling each week and in addition to that it's really important to refrain from making unnecessary bets that you're not sure about. Like in sports betting, for example, it's advisable to avoid gambling on teams that you have little knowledge about. Instead focus on teams that you are familiar with and have more information about.

I don't like gambling much now because I am a gambler.  I lost a lot of money playing.I was totally addicted to gambling then. So I didn't understand anything then. Now I understand and regret a lot.
I've completely abstained from anything related to gambling; I won't even go near or visit online gaming sites because I don't want to be swayed by the high odds and games that I'm familiar with. Before everything cools down, we have to admit that what we are getting into is wrong and completely out of plan, gambling leads to us to use our budgeted money for another unnecessary thing, which is to wager on games, and at the end of the day, we record either loss or profit. Gambling has become a huge obstacle for youngsters of today, driving them to compromise their concentration and do things that are incorrect.
The key here is that we should really be having that self control because if we dont really have this kind of behavior then most likely we would really be ending up on using up those money into gambling.
It is really just that a matter of control and mindset on things on which we do really have our own will on how we would really gonna handle up ourselves when it comes to this manner.
We know that it would really be that a waste if we do really engage on it out specially with gambling and making bad decisions would really be ending up on losing money which is something that should really be used on
other means. There are really people who are really that sensible and wary on whats happening around or the actions that they do made but there are really also those people who are really that dumb
and tolerate out those things that they do have in mind without trying to look and assume out on what would gonna happen in the future. We know that there are really things which we do
really need to avoid to avoid disaster in our lives.

I understand that this can be a very difficult situation for you. Feeling addicted to gambling can be overwhelming and lead to serious financial and emotional problems.
You have already realised that gambling is bad for you. This is an indication of your strength and determination. Now you can build a healthier and happier life.

It's good that you've noticed and you're able to acknowledge that you've been once an addicted gambler. It is a hard thing for a gambler to accept his faults and admit that he's already too much and considers himself as an addicted gambler. While you've been through, a lot of realizations for sure has happened.

The scenario of yours and OP isn't that far at all. You need to assure yourself that you're only gambling for what it is intended for and what you've planned for.

When it's time to withdraw profits, do not forget about it and remember that being too much on it does have a lot of bad effects.

You are obviously right that patience can most of the time be rewarding even if it's not doable all the time because it needs a lot of willpower, but when we talk about Slot machines, I believe someone needs to have a clear understanding of how they work if they don't want to lose a lot of money since we know how quickly they can finish our bankroll, that's why we need to keep a target and be focused.

Generally, when you are playing on a slot machine, you should be able to know if it's going to pay up or not just in a few spins, but still, one should do some more just to be sure. Doing 50 or maybe 100 spins should give you a clear idea if you are going to get something out of it or not.
There is a limit to patience in every person, when you have just started and then get defeated, it is certain that your psychology will be disrupted and patience will be difficult to do. Yes, sometimes there is a bit of doubt about this slot machine, because I saw some of my friends experience failure when they wanted to make a withdrawal when they won and the casino didn't pay for it, there are lots of fake slot machines that don't pay when gamblers get a win. What I always do when gambling on the slot machine that I just tried is I will withdraw with a small nominal first if I win and do it about three times at different times, and if it goes well then I will play with a nominal bigger and make bigger withdrawals. I will not look for many online gambling sites for me to visit, I will only stick to one site that can be trusted.

Patience, my friend, is indeed a bitter plant but it bears sweet fruit. Your lack thereof seems to be the cog in your wheel when it comes to gaming. Casino bonuses require the tactical approach of a chess grandmaster and the serenity of a Tibetan monk. You need to strategize, hold your nerves and not just throw your hands up when the going gets tough.

Sometimes, playing for more than 3 minutes might just be the key to unlocking those pesky winnings you've been after. Quick gratification is a millennial myth that's been ingrained in our psyche. However, reality check - it doesn't translate well in the casino world.

Slot machines are designed for entertainment, sure, but they also reward patience. So, while you're not wrong in using it as a de-stress tool, try to approach it with a bit more patience. You might find more joy (and maybe winnings) in your gaming experience.

Its quite normal to have regrets but in your quest of regrets, you should also learn to let go because the moment you start pondering on those looses the feeling of wanting to get back your money falls inline with your thoughts and before you know it you are chasing your losses like a mad man and in so doing losing lots more again.

Patience is not the most important factor gambler needs. For example I got recently hooked by crash game. I can patiently wait until the rocker crashes immediately (at 1.00). It might take minutes or hours before that happens. Logically and under theory of variability, the next rocket crash should not happen at 1.00 and gambler could let if fly higher, but I personally got two 1.00 rocket crashes that came one after another, and have seen it in game history. I think that luck is the only important factor.

This topic is already long open and being misunderstood the purpose. The patience he is talking is the wait when your account doesn’t have instant withdrawal. He lose all his profit including bankroll just because he can’t wait to process his withdrawal and continue gambling until he bust.

Patience on playing crash game is different and that game is very intense that even people with patience will obviously lose because it’s a complete luck based game on when you will cash out your bet.

On the other hand, patience is only one item of several necessary to have a happy gambler life.

But patience related to what? If I place 10 bets per month and thought a lot about it and only placed 1 bet every 3 days, I can still be a "patient" bettor, but lose more than I can afford depending on what my circumstances are. I think it is overall self-control and honesty with one-self. What are my limits and over timeframe?

You are absolutely right that addictions aren't a flu and another difference is that a flu is an obvious state of the physical condition which can't be overlooked usually. Whereas an addiction can also have to do with ignorance and go undetected for a long time. I know that it could also be that way with a flu, but I hope I made my point.
