Topic: Don’t push playing more (Read 853 times)

I don’t consider my post as speech  because it’s too formal but rather just a sharing of opinion and probably to help other gamblers here especially newbie that encounter struggles when they are pursuing gambling journey.

The popularity of signature campaign for casino in the forum makes the participants involved in gambling as part of their requirements. It’s very to ignore the curiosity to gamble when you are promoting one and consistently reading post about gambling. My main goal on my recent share of opinion is specifically for newbie like you just in case this scenario hits you hard.

I experienced a lot of losses including many huge losses due to my mistakes. I’m proud now that there’s no major losses happening to in most of my gambling game due to my lesson learned from my experience in the past. I will lock now this thread to avoid further unnecessary discussion.

It may be true that some gamblers do not have a clear budget so they prefer to spend their money only on gambling but if this continues of course they will become addicted to gambling and continue to do so without caring about other things and will have a bad impact on themselves with curiosity, selfishness, and greed that arises in themselves. In fact, in my opinion, at a sufficient age we must have our own needs even though we cannot earn our own income yet.

Even with constant practice and also being helped by encouragement or support from those closest to them to stop, it will be useless if they themselves are still hesitant to leave gambling or there is still a sense of wanting to gamble with a high thirst for victory and emotions. If they can control their emotions and control themselves when playing with the aim of just entertainment, maybe there will be no bad effects that can spend all their money. Even if they have a budget that they must pay, in my opinion, for the addict it is not something that can prevent him from returning to gambling again, he can borrow here and there to return to gambling.

That's the thing, gambling is as dangerous as alcohol drinking, if not more.

Of course it can be done in moderation, but the moment it is done beyond moderation, it is a big problem, and not many people are prepared to confront that.

However, they really need to control themselves and have a clear budget before gambling so they will not fall into gambling addiction. If gamblers could have those things, they would not be addicted to gambling and would use gambling as they should because they realize that gambling is just entertainment.

This requires continuous practice because we have our weakest moments as humans. And when we are weak, that's when we can be tempted. But the temptation will not increase because we can immediately remember that this is gambling and we should not just follow our desires.

By having a budget, we can remember how much we can use and not exceed the limits. Otherwise, we will only lose more money and also lose self-control.

In addition to all that you have said, self control and budgeting is paramount to help any gambler stay healthy in the game and not get to the point of addiction. It's often not emphasize by most persons but the importance of these can not be overly emphasised as when applied the results will definitely be pleasing and Worth trying, it's tried and tested to work effectively.

If a gambler is able to control their shelves as it has to do with their habit in gambling, if they can control themselves enough on how often they visit the gambling site, offline or online, they could set rule's to keep them from often visiting and try to stick to the rules, if they could attain that level of self control such that they don't do what they don want to do at certain time then they would most likely gamble responsibly

Budgeting is important aswell as you know how much you are willing to risk before visiting the casino and you try to stick to it well enough not to spend above your budget at the casino. This helps you save money and cut your losses aswell.

We all can remember it. The only way we can forget it is if we have an amnesia but I think this is a rare condition. The only problem is many of us are hard-headed and can't seem to learn from our past mistakes. Gambling for a while can also mean for a short period of time, so why stop immediately? But if you mean if we are already gambling for a long time and it was mostly the disadvantage is the one that we experience, then yeah. We should stop now even if it's already a little late.

Though I'm not that big of a trader, I still get the reference and I can definitely understand how difficult it can be to see your trades hitting the stop-loss when you obviously want it to hit the sell target and give you some profit, but when it comes to gambling, stopping actually saves you from incurring more losses whereas in trading, you might not incur losses without a stop-loss but you might get your capital or a portion of it stuck in that trade, especially if you are trading in the spot market.

So, it basically becomes a necessity for a gambler to put a stop to their gambling if they see that it's slowly eating up all their belongings and they are not seeing any profit which isn't the case with trading because one of your trades might fail but you will eventually recover from it and you can get more successful trades after that.

Totally quitting in gambling is indeed very hard to do but pausing a game is easy if you have a conditional breaks setup on your game. I list a lot of scenarios that triggers me for a lose game. I use this experience of mistakes to make my game more control now even in the presence greed.

The word quitting is really impossible to do by a gambler that already exerts a lot of time and effort on gambling because they will keep want to play and win more even if they are losing.



I’m glad that some user appreciate my share of experience. I will contribute more of this later as long as someone here might use this in future when they encounter same scenario.

People believe that alcohol addiction games have completely different foundations, but in fact they are very similar. The fact is that in each of these cases, a person is trying to achieve a special state of his nervous system, a kind of trance. With alcohol addiction, everything is simple and clear - I got drunk, became drunk. as for gambling addiction, a person tries to enter a state when only he is the master of his life, when everything is simple and clear: here is the bet, here are the chances. And the casino helps him in every way in this, the gaming service pretends to be a simple tool to achieve goals, but in fact the casino of course pursues only selfish goals.

Yes, I know this isn't a long enough break but this process is sufficient for me since I gamble for fun and don't exceed the limits I set without violating my own rules and have low losses. In addition, because I gamble not frequently and regularly but in certain periods, I take such short breaks during these periods. Especially when I examine the last few months, I see that I have had very low losses most of the time and this indicates that gambling is not a problem for me but it's fun for me. Since I'm definitely not someone who always wins at gambling I know when I should be happy if I win and when I should be sad and I don't ignore the games I constantly lose.

I never keep a record of my gambling activities because as I mentioned I have not had a loss that I would regret in a very long time and I think it isn't fun if constant records are kept. For this reason, I don't have any gambling records of my own and I only monitor my gambling activities by checking the deposit-withdrawal and gambling-betting history provided by the casino. Also, since I have long considered gambling as an expensive hobby rather than a method of earning money I definitely don't play for profit.

Just as you stated in your last sentence, I see gambling as a means of fun and for this reason I prefer to play games only with the amount that I will not be upset if I lose, usually until I consume my entire balance and I don't keep a record of this in any way. In the very rare case that I win several multiplier my money, I transfer that money to my wallet and use it again later when I want to gamble or use it for my personal expenses.

We can salute them but we must also be like them in trying to refrain from excessive gambling. We want to avoid experiencing so many losses that we must be even stricter in managing our budget. This is all for our good so we will not experience gambling addiction.

Maybe it is difficult to do, but we must keep trying. That's all we have to do so that we can get used to controlling ourselves from excessive gambling. And we can be responsible gamblers like others have done.

Self-discipline is difficult but we can do it. And don't forget to have other activities so we don't think about gambling. We can also limit time and money for gambling.

Yes, exactly.

It's a powerful addiction in the end, just like alcohol.

"I will never drink again", and then the addicted person goes and gets a drink. There's never a last one.

It's the same with gambling, the gambler goes and thinks the next one will be the last one where they win big, but that last one never arrives.

Quitting gambling is as hard as pressing stop loss in trading. If traders read me, they will understand. Admitting that you are losing more than you are winning is the first step to stopping and stopping spending money on the game.
As a rule, psychologists say that almost all players are real fighters by nature. I mean a strong character and an unwillingness to give up, a desire to go to the end at all costs. And this character trait plays against the personality itself, since in the context of gambling this is nothing more than giving all your funds to the casino. And then - debts, microloans, lies to loved ones and an unrealistic desire to recoup. Push off from the bottom and ascend, but this moment never comes.

Nothing else can help you except limits and self-control, if they don't apply to their gambling then I'm sure they will have the same fate in terms of downturns as those who are already addicted. I think most of them forget that self-control because they are too cool to play and too focused on chasing victory there so that they should stop but instead continue to play because they are tempted by what they see until finally well defeat happens to them again.

It should be like that, as you said, indeed we must be a responsible gambler, whatever the results, especially defeat, we must be able to accept it gracefully, because obviously if we are carried away by emotions then we will continue to play without taking into account how many defeats and losses we have experienced. True, regret will always come at the end, so it is better from now on we think about it and avoid something that should not be done.

You're right, control and self-limitation are very important when it comes to gambling and most people often forget that because of the excitement when they get lucky in gambling, want to get back what they lost, etc. There is nothing wrong with having fun, just don't overdo it and don't forget the responsibilities so you don't regret it later. We know that regret always comes last.

If a person has a serious gambling problem, he needs to either stop gambling completely, or learn to control himself and his money while gambling, and not to take breaks.

Any gambler who has long abstained from gambling, well remember the greedy feeling with which he returns to the game after a break. Sometimes at such a moment you can spend even more than you were going to spend at first.

Controlling your interruptions helps if you do not have a gambling addiction and want to reduce the likelihood of having one.

I agree with you, yes, if we lose from gambling that day, we should take a break the next day or the next few weeks. Sometimes many players find it difficult or difficult to control themselves and continue playing instead of getting the next opportunity to get lucky in gambling. This is where we need to take a decision to stop controlling our finances and emotions in gambling games.

This can be yes or not sir, because I have tried it several times, although in different results, the time span of hearing is the possibility we get a victory, I also feel strange why it can happen, the longer the gambling is the more likely to get a big multiplier in the slot game For example, yes agree with you that a true victory is when we get a big victory then we choose to stop, that's a fact that I cannot reject about your argument.
It's just that it reaches a big victory, the time to bring in victory requires a little more time and makes a random choice to increase the possibility of victory through a random multiplier.

Well, you know, one reason why i think its extremely important to take a rest after winning a significant amount of money from gambling is that, after a gamblers wins a tangible sum and continues to gamble.
First, there is a high chance that such a gambler will enter into a very long losing streak with very minor wins from time to time, this i believe is an algorithm the casino has set in order to help them get that money back from the gambler.

Secondly, the tendencies that the gambler will also increase the betting amount since he or she now have huge funds in the gambling account, is very high, this the gambler will be tempted to do in a bid to win even higher amount of money just in case he or she gets lucky again, which often times is not always the case but the other way round.

So for me, if for any reason i get so lucky and won a huge amount of money through gambling, I don't mind staying away from gambling up to a month before i come back again.

I think one of the bigger fallacies is that once someone wins a big jackpot exactly because he took more risk than usual, it may lead that player to believe that it was right to take the higher risk and in essence the player is right about it. Because if he stopped just one minute earlier to calm down, the jackpot may have never happened to him. That's why gambling requires a limit that a player adheres to no matter what. Winning jackpots when actually you know you should have long stopped can also be a dangerous trap for the mind. It's what you will repeatedly say to yourself next time because it worked out last time.
