When you have decided to gamble, you're already taking a big risk and you have to realize that before you gamble. Enjoying is always the excuse that we can use but we don't know how long we can take that excuse for ourselves if there's no good effect anymore and most of the results are not that good enough. Your money control lies on ourselves and there will be no other people that are going to do that for us even though we cannot dictate our fates.
Precisely, there's no one who can dictate aside from your ownself, if you already out of excuses then the next thing you know is you also out of money.
You've got to limit yourself and that so called enjoyment and budget the amount of money that you are willing to stake within this entertainment activities.
Doing that, you are also limiting the chance of losing huge amount and being to engage and addicted.
You budget your enjoyment and you still need to control that because if you're enjoying too much and you don't think of the consequences as you win or lose, you're still out of control.
Most gamblers do not know the effect, especially if they have already been gambling for a long time. What they can feel is only enjoying the game and that makes them hard to stop the game. If they continue playing gambling without realizing how much money they already use, that will be only a matter of time for them to lose more money. The risk behind gambling will be bigger, and most gamblers still do not care about that instead of continuing to play gambling. They will realize the risk when they lose all of their money, but that will be too late for them.
I don't think so. For experienced gamblers, they're or we're aware of what we're doing. The excuse of enjoying is just to avoid the pain when we're losing and that's a good argument if you're doing that strategy but I doubt that experienced ones don't know of the effect.
