That is the greatness of the internet which is utilized well by the host in creating and organizing strategies or tricks to attract someone's sympathetic attention to enter the world of gambling.
That is, as the OP said, by making up stories to convince someone of winning big when gambling, these stories actually need to be looked at again and we also have to be careful whether the facts are true or not because it is impossible for gamblers to easily get big wins. just like that, maybe previously he often lost and the process of winning was very difficult and unpredictable.

Yes, making reckless bets may have happened once or twice, even several times, it's definitely here, because behavior like that will arise by itself, especially if someone is addicted to gambling, then obviously he will often make lots of mistakes as a result of not being able to control his bad behavior. that wisely and responsibly.
And if this carelessness will definitely make our hearts shudder and regret because we have done something inappropriate and it is possible that he will be even more careful in carrying out the action so that it doesn't happen again.

The key to engagement with gambling has always been about setting boundaries and nothing else, because no matter what, gambling will always be a risky activity regardless of whether you are an experienced gambler or a beginner. And we can see that there are quite a few gamblers who have gone downhill as a result of always trying to make gambling as a place to earn, or as a result of betting too large amounts in the hope of getting a big win.

On the other hand maybe gambling by taking too high a level of risk will not always end in a painful situation because there will always be one situation that makes you win when luck comes at the right time, but if the habit is done in the long run then obviously that will cause many disasters to come, so if you are too curious then there is nothing wrong with gambling with a high level of risk but make sure that you do it only once and only for an experiment, the rest is still betting not to exceed the limits.

You need to know that gambling is indeed a reckless act or activity, no matter how good a person is at gambling or betting, carelessness and mistakes will always happen, That's a natural law in the world of gambling, but if that happens we will automatically change our betting style and instead be eager to do it again.

Different from those who gamble without having skill or strategy, perhaps it could be said that it is a stupid bet, but that is not always the case for those who think professionally, they will correct the causes of losses and be willing to improve themselves in gambling, so that experience can be a basic confession for those who act stupidly in gambling.

If you will lose a lot of money , they have to pay all the bills but if you lose all your salary then that is uncomfort for them . Always remain in your limit and never exceed your limit.

 Your family is your life and do not take any bad step that will be dangerous for them . And play safe inning and always involve in low risk betting. you should bet in your limit. And if you don't, then you will find yourself in a predicament from which it is very difficult to get out .

I faced this sort of scenario after doing a lot of football gambling. In football you will quite often find low multipliers like 2 or 3, and you become accustomed to seeing these low numbers. After doing that for a while I was drawn into horse racing odds one day and those odds can start to look astronomical in comparison. I went in big with some horse racing bets and soon realized that the "favorites" often failed to win, walking away with some losses after learning that lesson. The best way to help this scenario is to start small and do it consistently, that way you could build up a feel for how a new type of betting style will work - instead of going in with a mass of bets and losing all of them.

People show emotions when they are losing too much amount of money. Although, people will be very happy and excited if they are winning but that is not the emotion that they are referring to while doing something risky like trading or gambling. It is about losses. The best way not to have such emotion, especially when losing is to use small amount of money to gamble. In casinos, you can gamble as low as $0.5 on many games, while small amount of money can be used in sport betting. But many gamblers will show emotions because they are looking for money through gambling.

I think should  someone, no matter whether he is novice or experienced gambler,   get immensely bad losing streak he/she will turn into common gambler who shows his emotion. To be an impassive gambler all the time at win or lose is almost impossible unless you are tight as a drum.

Sure, one should never reveal  his emotions to others  ,  but this is mostly true when gambling inside physical shops. But if he/she shows them in front of  his/her  display ( when gambling online in home) the latter will  remain as imperturbable as Buddha.  

Usually beginner gamblers don't know anything about gambling so they gamble carelessly. Even when I was a beginner, I also felt this and this is normal. And it can be used as experience for us to continue to understand gambling and try to do no longer carelessly as a responsible gambler for sure already know the important points to avoid and the important points to apply. Irresponsible gamblers usually tend to be careless because all they have in mind is catching up on their previous losses and continuing to gamble by trying to do lots of tricks in the sense of doing various things to recover their losses.

If you want to change any style of gambling, if you don't have luck, you still won't be able to win because gambling requires real luck. The most important thing is to be able to control yourself so that gambling isn't done carelessly because gambling involves real money, so it's better to be really serious and not careless the reason is because gambling also requires concentration, not just placing a bet and then ignoring it.

I'm 100% sure that all gamblers have experienced reckless bets, It is part of the game it is hard not to have one, in a platform of uncertainty there's always a temptation to take risks you will have one or more reckless bets knowingly or unknowingly.

Somewhat yes but I still welcome reckless bets because it is what makes the game exciting I just make it a point not to lose a lot of money because that will surely hurt my gambling experience so from having fun you will be depressed.

It's part of the game just don't make to many bets like this and if you do then you should ok with the outcome or results.

I think perhaps almost all gamblers have done something careless in gambling, but only in certain situations, for example experiencing continuous losses every time you place a bet, this makes a gambler's emotions run high and in the end they make mistakes such as wanting revenge and betting without thinking. to lose again because they hope that by doing this they will get good luck at the end of the game. Changes in playing style often occur in gambling and only a few gamblers are able to control themselves when placing bets.

Well they say experience is the best so I can relate this to your thread because I believe I have made some reckless gambling actions and it took time before I was able to realize myself but for me the damage wasn't all that big but to different person they just restructure their gambling habits and time so it can be more efficient while others say they completely stop the act but mine was adapting to a particular pattern in which I now stake only twice a week with a fixed amount of funds and if that funds exhaust, then its probably going be till the next gaming week.

I do this sometimes when I’m having a good time with dealer when playing live table games. I frequently do some unique move such as risky double down and increasing my bets just to impress the dealer with my profit due to his good luck.

My approach is the opposite of what OP doing as suicide bet just to impress since a dealer will be more happy if you are winning rather than losing it all on an almost impossible odds to win.

I never play roulette but betting on straight zero is a thing that I don’t consider to do in roulette or any straight bet because it’s very to win with a lot of choices available.

There was one moment where I experienced this when I had a bad connection to the Internet but forced to play crashes which in the end the bet I did was lost without a remainder and stupidly I did it several times because of the ambition to restore the balance that was previously lost even though my connection was bad and I tried to force this

This is the stupidest thing I have ever done in gambling but indeed for now I think of it as silly and always a joke for my friends who know it and the good side is that we can actually be more aware that in the end forcing something that is not really possible it will not work so with the experience I did, for now I am more careful and pay more attention to several aspects because in the game everything must always be good not only in the mood of other things as support such as the Internet as well as feeling must be better so that we are not easily trapped in gambling that is done.

Even after making such reckless decision in gambling and experiencing huge losses I do not believe that it will really affect the gambling style of a gambler permanently because human beings are very quick to forget. The loss may affect them temporarily and force them to make changes to their gambling habit but within a week or two or after a short while they often forget and may go back and remake the same mistakes.
If it is a random individual on the Internet, you may not easily be influenced and can shake off the feeling but, you will be more influenced as a gambler to try more gambling when we see that someone close to us wins a bet. A friend or a family member.

The carelessness that occurred in my gambling changed my habits. I used to think that if I bet a large amount at once I would win a large amount according to the odds, it turns out that was just not a good choice.

When playing slots, rarely play normally with large bets but always play by buying free spins. This is not effective because maxwin is not always obtained through the buy free spin feature. Now, I'm not like that anymore. 2/1 or 3/2 means buying 1 free spin and 2 times playing normally.
In sports betting, I have changed my skills. As in soccer betting, there is no longer any ambition in chasing the total odds.

Gambling just enjoy.

Yes, I think it's a common behavior among new groups. In that early stage, a new gambler can always get confused about analysis, how to know the clubs with the best players, getting to know how many points the club has, their next match, and the club they are going head to head with, and when a new gambler cannot wrap their head around all this area before they can make a possible prediction, it becomes a problem for them, and the person can just decide to make a foolhardy bet. 


Most newbie is mostly concerned about winning than practicing, they just want to make the quick profit that other gamblers has made without realizing that it is quite difficult to archive it by foolhardy bet. You must understand how the system work before you can hope for luck while applying your strategies too.

It's very natural that when you start gambling, you do random gambling like that because you may not know about analysis before making a bet and there are also lots of choices if we want to place a bet on a club. When I started gambling, I was quite confused and tried things that I didn't know but of course by trying small bets just to understand what is meant so that we can broaden our insight into gambling in the future. Beginner gamblers who don't like asking questions to other people usually always try it themselves but if they understand they will eventually have the knowledge they have so they can start Bet seriously and not carelessly so you can make a profit.

This is not something stupid because seeing other people win makes us also want to win and want to try it, but basically winning at gambling is not easy to achieve, so why should we be affected by other people's wins, and we can't change our fate if we rely on gambling. It's better to master the game and gamble responsibly so as not to be careless or make stupid bets.

Haha, I bet you did make an impression! Was it a dealer at the roulette table or just some random attendant who was also playing? I wouldn't be surprised at that point if it's done deliberately. That was a deadly combination; alcohol, along with the presence of an attractive woman, can easily influence your behavior and make moves than you otherwise wouldn't. I personally haven't been in a physical casino, so I can't relate; thus, I haven't ever been lured by a female, but have suffered the consequences of alcohol somewhere similar.

I believe your example was a decent explanation of what a foolhardy bet is!

What you say, I'm sure most gamblers have experienced something that had a fatal impact on their gambling. In fact, it is often done repeatedly. whether it is purely the result of a mistake, or purely due to the emotion of anger that controls our thoughts and the bets we make. So, this point for the word "reckless" can be repeated by gamblers. yeah, it all depends on the conditions and situation. As for what changed my gambling style, it was a long time ago. In short, in the past I gambled without thinking and most importantly was satisfied. the problem of losing, that is the umpteenth part that I think about. Now especially as I get older and more experienced, I see gambling differently. The point is, learn from the experience and essence that I get from the gambling that I do.  We don't need to discuss winning or losing in this post, because that is an inseparable part of gambling. However, it is more about how we can always be safe when gambling. The meaning of safety that we are discussing is so that we are not affected by something problematic. There are many risks involved, but most gamblers ignore them.

With experience, I changed the style of gambling that I do.  In the past, where I thought about how to get money and fun from gambling. Nowadays, how can I have fun without having to sacrifice a lot of things. for example, know that the money we spend is purely side money or what we have budgeted for which will not interfere with other, even more important, needs. more importantly, as I've changed it, the importance of responsibility and the importance of awareness. Unfortunately, without discipline, everything will not work as it should. However, in practice it is not as easy as I said. So, every time we bet, it is something new and we must be able to discipline the rules we make for gambling.

Yes, I highly agree with you, it's just waste of ones time and money to chase big jackpots. I know some of us can be very lucky and might win such jackpots in our lives but such type of winning requires a lot of luck and money. I believe instead of chasing those jackpots one should do his/her research well and place bets on sports events which could be profitable if research is good.
