I think that telling people who are susceptible to addictions, not to partake in habit forming activities like gambling is not very useful, as people tend to ignore the warnings of others, when there is something that they really want to do. The most effective way that people learn tough lessons is with personal experience. There is no way around it. Life is the greatest teacher.
I somewhat agree with you but I wouldn't like watch someone I love suffering through bad experiences. Well if I help him/her then he/she would never realize how dangerous it can be. So in other words its dilemma and very complicated issue. Sometimes I feel collective about it so I go warning people. But sometimes I also think individualist about it so letting someone do his mistake may be better. I always prefer to warn young people.

Seeing someone who near to you with something that you know that harming them mentally and financially, it's a call that you need to address, helping in the way you know that they will understand will be appreciated, I mean, doing something that will let them realize what's going on and give them the guidance and help that they needed to overcome or to try harder to work on it and escape from such kind of things for the betterment of their life.

I also have to partially agree with you. The best way to go about this kind of addiction is to allow the people to learn by experience because most times they dismay advisers and some do not even agree that they are being addicted. However, there are still people that listen to advice so such kind of advice me change them, especially when they are not very much into the gambling addiction.

Responsible gaming ends when you start spending money on bills, family or anything else important that you were supposed to buy, and then decide to spend that money on gambling. This is already a very serious signal that you need to consider - whether I decide how much I play, or whether I'm already addicted and I have no control. Lying to myself that I'm not addicted will only make my addiction problems worse. And if someone already wants to play for money that is not theirs - that is, for loans or, even worse, money given to us by relatives/friends for safekeeping or for anything else - this is the last step to tragedy. Because if you keep borrowing all the time, it will end tragically - the worst thing is when you realize that it's too late and you have no chance to pay back all debts, and family and friends don't want to know you anymore.

Rightly said, it doesn't take long for a person to become destitute when greed works between addiction and gambling. Dealing with addiction is scary gambling should be strictly a form of entertainment and no one should have to suffer the negative consequences of gambling. You should not gamble while going through emotional problems like depression. Try to maintain a good balance between gambling and other things in life. To help gamble responsibly, if you lose gamble with an amount you can afford to give up control is possible.

The gambling playing and the addiction had a very close difference,because the gambler had a control to play and play for the full day he is not the addict.The gambling addict is the addict who don't have a capacity to stop the game on their control.The addict always give the negative impact to the gambling itself.They will spoil the reputation of the gambling among the other gamblers.Because the gambling addict will play the game with emotion and lose the entire money.So the new gambler will consider this as the bad example and stop their more game in gambling.

Every addiction is psychological, and from what I noticed recently, people could be addicted to anything, only that most of what we are addicted to are not harmful or calls for too much attention, and that's why we don't seem to notice them. As it is in gambling, it's better to prepare our minds before we start gambling at all, which is why I will give it as an exemption to what you mentioned above about people becoming defeated by addiction if you advise them. This is not particularly true for all as the consciousness of gamblers helps in this regard, but that is when they could truly prepare their minds on what could possibly go wrong if they give in to gambling addiction.

This goes beyond merely telling them about the addiction to gambling but better educating them or the gamblers educating themselves on what could cause gambling addiction, the danger of the addiction and why gambling is the last place to look towards when someone is looking for a get-rich-quick scheme or trying to pay back debt. Desperation in gambling often leads to more loss. The earlier a starter knows this, the better for them unless they are foolish or daring themselves, then you let them learn from their mistake or wallow in their folly.
Doesn't someone claim morality today? Everyone's an addiction specialist these days, right? While you're preaching about gambling addiction's hazards, remember that a million other addictions are ignored because they're "less harmful"

You think gambling is for cowards? Uncontrollable urges? Wrong! A sport for the strong, bold, and determined. Some survive and flourish! As you said, education is vital. Not simply the dread and gloom you sell

The real education is playing the game, knowing the dangers, and being smarter than the ordinary Joe. The strategy, calculation, and exhilaration of winning matter. Who are you to judge someone who gambles to get rich fast or pay off debt? People have changed their fortunes like that

excessive gambling
  Excessive time would be the main cost to the actual game playing and the rest of the consequences is about the money allocated.   Be sensible in the amounts, go for regular play over one off amounts, never promise yourself you will win as part of a budget to planning the potential money spent and its all likely to work more often then not even if not winning the bet or gamble.  Solve the problem of spending too much and you can draw a line under the gambling as a negative overall
greed and impatience have always been the destroyers of many gamblers without exception, i often hear news about people embezzling money, debts to loan sharks, robbery or fraud just because they want to continue gambling, and damn they will continue to lose because greed is a barrier for them to win, take a break, calm your mind or go on vacation with your family first when you lose, don't be reckless...remember that tomorrow is still there and will definitely be better than today when you lose gambling.

There are many different factors why gamblers are getting addicted to gambling but yeah it's a problem that can cause additional problem. Psychological problems is one of the factors why gamblers are getting addicted but one thing is for sure, being addicted will contribute additional psychological problems.

Psychological problems is one of the factors why gamblers are getting addicted but one thing is for sure, being addicted will contribute additional psychological problems.
We need to also consider that some people simply have greater chances of becoming addicts due to their personalities being geared towards a short term kind of thinking, as in that case they will not bother to think about the long term consequences of their behavior and will only care about what they feel at the moment.

This kind of personality can easily get into the path of an addiction and only realize too late this is the case, while someone that is more used to think long term can see that their behavior is leading them in that direction and take the necessary steps so this does not happen to them.


Yeah, when you are fully attached into something that you feel the adrenaline it's not impossible that you will be falling into addiction, there's always that lust and desire that will keep you to move deeper or lead you to take all the chances that you have just to please that eagerness inside you to play or to bet with the game you love.

Though just the same, it's more on the person on how he will handle the pressure and how he can manage his emotion and treatment

It is our responsibility for us to comport ourselves and gamble responsibly without causing unnecessarily drama or putting ourselves in a bet that will make us lose big. There are people that are still gambling uncontrollable that is resulting to addiction and lose of funds due to mismanagement and greeds. We need to always have a strategy as a gamble that want to make money from betting. If we are consistent without greed, we can become a profitable gambler with huge profits only if we have a good money management and better strategy.

Better to learn about being wise and responsible keep pushing yourself, thinking that you can add more with your winnings will just turn everything to dust, instead of having some decent amount of profits it will lead you to lose everything. If you learn and practice good control of your finances and also good control with your emotions, the chance is better for you to enjoy and to have some money out from these activities, else, you will just keep repeating same mistake and you will lose more money if you stay long and if you keep coming back.
Learning to be wise and responsible, at least it will be useful for us in dealing with problems that can arise in gambling. And if you can control your finances well and don't get emotional easily, you can enjoy gambling activities and won't cross the line. And you can handle using the money for gambling so that you will only play enough gambling and can stop at the right time. Having self-control can protect us from losing money at gambling. And when we can have that self-control, we will be able to enjoy gambling as we should and will only make gambling as entertainment.

There may be hope to people who are affected by greed and impatience to change their way without the help of any third party and just by simply correcting their way.  But if the person had already developed a gambling addiction and is deeply rooted in it, it would be hard to change their way since they already have this uncontrollable urge to gamble which renders them helpless when the urge strikes and demand them to gamble continuously.  So in time, we felt that we are not in control anymore, we better try our best to regain control and try to gamble responsibly by moderating our gambling activity.  If we can do that, we can gamble as long as we want without affecting our finances negatively.

Gamblers who gamble excessively face many problems in the future. Especially when they become highly addicted to gambling once they play craps, they feel more inclined to gamble. When a new gambler is interested in betting in the first place he needs to know the details about gambling otherwise he must lose a lot of bets which will make him emotional. So it is good to know about going but can be successful in the future, but we know gambling is not for everyone who spend long time to gamble only can earn from gambling. But there are some people who are not very good at gambling, but they go gambling and eventually lose their money because of which they become emotional. Therefore, excessive gambling should not be done by those people who are still raw about gambling they should refrain from gambling otherwise they will eventually become addicted to gambling to a large extent.
There is no need to wait until the future to see gamblers who over-gamble get into trouble because once they are done gambling, they may end up with problems right away such as losing more money until their balance is empty, not being able to go home because all the money is gone, or other. A new gambler does not need to lose much money by placing a bet because he can just stop gambling and leave the casino. But usually, they tend to have a high curiosity about why they can lose a lot of money. They should be able to realize that it is due to their impatience in gambling and not being able to see that they have enough to gamble. And if they can't learn to control themselves after that, they will still lose more money and even if they do win, their winning money will be lost because of the desire to have more wins. So it's better to learn to be a responsible gambler and to be wise while playing gambling.

Better to learn about being wise and responsible keep pushing yourself, thinking that you can add more with your winnings will just turn everything to dust, instead of having some decent amount of profits it will lead you to lose everything. If you learn and practice good control of your finances and also good control with your emotions, the chance is better for you to enjoy and to have some money out from these activities, else, you will just keep repeating same mistake and you will lose more money if you stay long and if you keep coming back.

Yes, it can happen, but only a small proportion of the majority of gamblers can because the surrounding and social environment also affect it, for example you decide to stop or reduce gambling, but you still often hang out or hang out with friends who like to gamble, so indirectly as time goes by when you have a high chance of wanting to return to gambling and it will definitely happen.
Association and the environment are very influential on oneself, many are influenced by wanting to gamble because of association and friends who like gambling, if you have an investor friend you might also be influenced to invest and start learning to be a small investor, I think that's a difficult way of life for us control unless the intention is in oneself not to be affected.

Sometimes I am also very lucky to be someone who is an introvert where I don't really like hanging out with lots of friends and other people out there, occasionally to meet just to say hello, never go and hang out with anyone except my family, in fact I have been doing it for a long time because almost the average environment from my friends I'm also a gambler, so avoiding them is the right way even though it won't affect me either because I'm very controlled when gambling.

When we dive into the origins of why men first began gambling, it seems they were driven by a desire to test their luck and secure financial gains. However, these reasons are not the only ones relevant to today's context.  Gambling has evolved into a form of entertainment, a shift that prompts reminders from others that it's meant to be a source of fun. Another reason people gamble is for escapism. Therefore, let's avoid assuming that everyone has the same motive for gambling.

Sadly, even now, many gamblers still perceive gambling mainly as a way to make money.
What I know is that reviewing the origins of gambling from the past was only used as entertainment and more precisely as you said to test your luck but all of that was based on entertainment when at every event there must have been some people starting to gamble even though they were in places of entertainment such as drinking beer with friends but still doing betting.
Most gambler today think that gambling is heaven for earning or think of it as place to multiplier that money because sometimes someone thinks instantly when they get big win or sees someone get a big win instantly people think it very easy to do but if all gambler want to calculate the total winnings that have been obtained in the amount with the previous losses, I am sure they won't be equal.

I've never used Stake before maybe that's why I missed this quality advice they give gamblers using their platform, I am really surprised,  because I always believe that even casinos want people to recklessly gamble on their platform so that their customers can lose a lot of money.

I was like, giving advice to gamblers about how they should be gambling will lower their earnings per day, I am still surprise that a online casino like Stake can do this.

Between, this is impressive, coming from a online casino.

Tips to gambling safely are:

Your gambling is balanced with other recreational activities/pastimes you have.
Before you start to gamble, you have a plan in mind of how much you want to spend gambling, and how long you will be gambling for.
Betting with money that is affordable to you.
Taking breaks or stopping gambling for the day.

Stake dot com did very well telling these to their customers, I am impressed, I can end up using Stake myself, thanks for sharing this.
Understanding the odds and knowing the risks associated with gambling.
Not being overly upset and angry by losses when you are gambling.

I've been saying it for ages - they're not like the other online casinos that just want to milk you dry. You say you're surprised? You shouldn't be. It's about time an online platform stepped up and offered real advice. It's what winners do, and Stake.com is a winner

Your former belief that casinos want their customers to lose shows your limited understanding. The real smart players, the best of the best - they know how to balance. The advice from Stake.com? It's gold. Only a fool would ignore it

But let me clarify: if you do decide to play on Stake.com, make sure you're ready. Don't just follow the tips; understand them. Play smart, play hard, and remember: you found out about the best from the best
