When they observe other people who gamble and are successful in making money, they think that they too can make money gambling.
And that led them to try it for a few dollars and they made their first profit.
That is the advantage for beginners in gambling but henceforth, they will not be as lucky at the beginning because they will face more losing moments than winning.
And when they instead continue to play gambling and even forget the time, they will only become addicted to gambling without them knowing it and will get deeper into gambling.
The responsibilities will be lost and they will not have good self-control so it will accelerate them to become a serious gambling addiction.

The after effect of curiosity and the desire to experience what other people have when they play the game, that kind of mentality is very dangerous as you wanted to try your luck believing that you can duplicate what others can do. Always remember that whatever strategy or whatever patterns that they've used, it doesn't mean that you will get the same result.

Re-assess after facing a defeat, instead of keep insisting on playing that kind of aggressiveness will endanger you to keep aiming for more.
That is why we must be responsible in gambling to avoid big losses.
Many gamblers lose control of themselves and risk a lot of money to gamble to get a win that they don't know when they will get it.
Gambling does not provide benefits but can even cause losses so we must always be responsible for ourselves and not use much money.
Let's just let people win because it's their luck; later, we can get our own luck too.
Play gambling casually, and enjoy the game. That's what we have to do.
Gambling is for leisure and you would really be needing to pay up for such leisure that you could be able to get through gambling.This is why its really that a bad idea for you on making yourself on getting
attached to it because if you are really that too mindful about on winning the game then this would give out that kind of desperation on which it would really be pushing you into your limits
or on border line. You should really be that responsible most of the time with your actions and decisions specially on gambling field or even on other various things in life on which it would really be that
so crucial when it comes to these type of situations.

On the time that you would really be missing out on being that responsible or being mindful about your actions then you would really be finding yourself to be on a big potential trouble later on.
Be wary and be cautious about  gambling because even if it meant for entertainment but if you arent that careful about it then chances on getting addicted would really be there.

The problem is, to have a mentality of responsibility is not an easy matter as we discussed, in practice sometimes we get carried away by the atmosphere and so on. in fact, what you say is a fact. "a lot of gamblers lose control of themselves and risk a lot of money to gamble and some of them don't know when is the right time to stop the gambling session". which, in the end, ends in a lot of losing.

Well, on the other point, I don't really agree  with what you say. if gambling does not benefit you, me, or us, it even tends to cause harm. preferably, the most appropriate step is not to gamble. that way, you don't need to involve responsibility, because you are not involved in gambling ideally. gambling for me is a hobby that is very risky in it. before we are going to make a deposit, know in advance that the money we are betting has a large potential to lose. thus, we can apply and involve self-control supported by responsibility, if we lose today, we can come back another day, maybe even the next week.
But one thing we agree on the most, we just enjoy every game session. and if the gambling session is no longer enjoyable, it is best to stop it and that is the most appropriate step to take.

Some people become addicted to gambling because of the way in which they view it; specifically, when it gets to the point where they are unable to control it any longer. For example, when someone gambles in order to make money or when they observe someone else making money from gambling, some people assume they become wealthy as a result. I have never seen someone who is wealthy through gambling and did not become addicted; the most of the individuals I know are gambling addicts. Imagine sitting down and imagining how money will come their way without working, which is, in all honesty, pretty rare.
When they observe other people who gamble and are successful in making money, they think that they too can make money gambling.

It's not entirely bad to feel the curiosity and to try it to see for themselves. What's bad is if they will gamble beyond their capacity and limitations since that is where the chaos starts. The moment you become greedy and start to crave for more without following your boundaries, there's a big possibility that you will suffer the consequences later on. Since after all, I agree with your statement, that not because others can do it, doesn't mean that you can too. And this is not to demotivate or discourage, rather than a concern advice because no one possess the exact same set of skills and luck. It varies per person, on how many experiences and how knowledgeable you are, and how much the fate loves you, to side on you to win most of the time. There's no one solution or method that fits all gambler.

Instead of pushing yourself to your limits because you want so bad to win, try to stop and pause for a while because taking a break can help you regain your strength and power to think more critically and logically whenever you feel tired or you feel like losing it.

But it's not just words of someone watching from the sidelines, it's stats, it's a fact that addicted gamblers constitute around 5% of all gamblers.. Check it by yourself.


I read some articles, and really saw that there are not as many addicts as it seems. Nevertheless, 5 percent is outdated statistics relating to 2018 or 2019 (judging by the latest articles on Wikipedia). But a year ago the statistics were updated, and now eight percent of respondents admit that they cannot control their desire to play. As you can see, unfortunately the number has increased (but in old surveys it was said that the number of addicts is only two percent).

I am sure that this is due to the fact that digitalization has made gambling much more accessible.
There is no way the data on this gambling addict can be accurate anymore because we now have online gambling, if someone messed up his life through gambling it could be hidden and the person can pretend like nothing happened, and if friends and family ask questions he can easily lied that financial crises took place and he lost some money in an investment that was supposed to work out fine.

Some people can't withstand losing a lot of money and everyone around them will know that they lost money in gambling while some know how to hide their shit, they will smile at people's faces and cry in their closets.

I agree with what you said but for now there are many naive people like this who are used by some small sites to attract enthusiasts in several ways such as using streamer services to make their sites better with some settings in it because they realise the ambition of many people to gamble just because they are obsessed with seeing other people winning games with large amounts so they try their luck there.
Whereas if examined further everyone has their own luck and does not mean that when other people get big profits then we also get the same thing because it will be like the opposite.

Re-assess after facing a defeat, instead of keep insisting on playing that kind of aggressiveness will endanger you to keep aiming for more.
Quitting when you lose can be more difficult than stopping when you win.
Defeat can have the effect of increasing emotion and a sense of wanting to avenge defeat so that gamblers forget about limits and control over themselves.
Even though at the beginning of the game session gamblers can be calm and play well, when defeat occurs, everything can turn 90% into gamblers who are panicked and ambitious.

It's better to enter the casino with a small amount of money and leave when you've run out or won so you don't lose a large amount of money when you're not doing well.
that is why it is important to set a budget for gambling, for example if you want to gamble you can limit your budget not to run out more even though it is true that stopping when you lose is very hard and difficult   but this is where it is important to understand that gambling is full of risks and always convince yourself that gambling is not a place for gambling. make money let alone multiply money.
Permit me to disagree with you on the part of your comment I bolded..
Stopping Gambling after losing is easy, very easy, it all boils down to the individual involved, deciding to stop gambling after experiencing some rather unexpected or unprepared for losses, (even if the gambler prepared for the loss) is very easy if the gambler is disciplined with himself, we as humans can do and achieve what ever we want, all it takes is determination and the will power to take the first step..
Many a times I've stopped myself from continuing gambling after losing for a while and seeing there is no hope of winning in sight, i still force myself to quit for that day even when there are voices telling me to bet one more time, that that could be the winning bet I've been waiting for all the while - I've grown to the point I know that listing to such voices will only lead you to an empty bankroll most of the time.

The desire to avenge defeat is always there and it is difficult to control, but consistently, namely convincing ourselves about risks and budget limits, will make us realize that playing with emotions will make us lose more, not succeed in chasing defeats, but on the contrary, make us lose even worse.

Well said, but let's not forget that there are still some strategies that is not dependent to any individual, this is simply means that anybody who catches the the strategy and apply it while the strategy is still in play stand a very high chance of getting the same result as the person who first applied the strategy, or the person who discovered or formed the strategy..

For example, like when we were much younger, we have a local lotto that was also very young at the time, to win the lotto, one of us will come up with e cheat code, if he applies the cheat code and it worked, we all that have the information will apply the same cheat code, and as long as the company has yet to discover the cheat code and block it, we as a whole that applied that cheat code will win.

Looks like it's just copy trading, huh? What you said is right, of course those who have the right system used that is why they got that kind of income. That's why it's still good that our own way or strategy will come from how we'll actually earn money.

That's why if you don't be smart and responsible in playing, the end result is that you will lose the capital that you use to match every game in the casino.

Well I can recall that saying of Jose Rizal back when people here in our country are still somehow showing the traditional manners, but shit has changed a lot even for kids. At the age of around 8 y/o, you can see most of them doing TikTok vids already. That already made me lost my belief that youth, at least in our country, is still a sign of hope.

About the scams happening, surely even kids are purely going to be easily scammed by them although they're not just that aware yet about the usage of cryptos.

You are right, for sure, that was still relevant at that time, but now it is very difficult as we know that most of the youth are the ones who like creating chaos. We see a lot of violent youth that are involved in crimes, some of them without remorse. But again, they are really the future because, without them, there are no innovations because most of those old people have already died and they are the ones continuing them.

A matter of self realization or having that realistic approach on things would really be able to help you out because if you arent really that sensible into the things around then most likely you would really be going into a
path on which believing into something which it isnt really that really good on doing so.Being responsible and having that common sense would really be able to help you out on making good decisions and steps and since you've been aware about the potential risks or danger on playing too much gambling and trying out to believe on what people been showing that there's a strategy that do works then it would really be molding up that kind of impression on which this would really make you desperate instead. Find yourself on going into a path into those realistic approach towards gambling and dont put yourself into something being delusional
on where you do believe that there's some sort of holy grail method for you to take advantaged on.

Having discipline in gambling is something very rare to be found, most people just start gambling and then they don't get a grip and continue it until they realize they have become addicted and that is only because they have gambled recklessly and spent a lot of time on it.

Some people become addicted to gambling because of the way in which they view it; specifically, when it gets to the point where they are unable to control it any longer.

I have never seen someone who is wealthy through gambling and did not become addicted; the most of the individuals I know are gambling addicts. Imagine sitting down and imagining how money will come their way without working, which is, in all honesty, pretty rare.

And they receive the money, yet it is still used for gambling. I think if they ran another business and made money from it, they would consider starting a new venture to increase their income. However, they have gambling addictions and continue to gamble with the same amount of money, which forces them to return to their previous financial situation.
In the case of a beginner in gambling, I think it's normal if he can't control his gambling, especially if he immediately wins at his gambling for the first time, of course he will find it difficult to control his ambition to win at gambling, especially if the environment is like you said, many people who wins from gambling, surely he will be proud to show his victory to his gambling friends.

It's a difficult thing, I've experienced that too, playing and then winning and I received the money, I didn't think I should open a business, because the consequences of doing business would be tiring, while gambling is easier and less sweaty in practice.

But if you have been in gambling for a long time and have had many losses, I think you will naturally become aware and try to control yourself so that you gamble responsibly, and you need to remember that it takes time to achieve this.

The fact is that from the outside everything seems easier than if you do it yourself.
For example, if you look at the cryptocurrency trading market, or for example at the forex currency pairs chart, it seems that it is obvious where the price bottoms and price tops are. And it seems obvious where to buy and where to sell.
So in life, when you play in the present moment, you will never be able to understand whether there is an addiction or not. At the same time, it will be clearly visible from the outside. And of course then everything will seem simple in words.

But it's not just words of someone watching from the sidelines, it's stats, it's a fact that addicted gamblers constitute around 5% of all gamblers.. Check it by yourself.

Sometimes greed can play us in different ways, because when we see that there are many options to win, we decide to risk it or not, it has happened to me when I play that it makes me want to bet more, but on other occasions I have listened to that type of thoughts and I end up losing almost everything, so that is not a good idea, when I try to ignore those thoughts, which are rare, I leave with some gain, not with what I would like, but with something in my pockets, at the end of it all, it's the best I can do to be able to come out happy when I play, it's better to come out like this than with losses , the feeling is much more satisfying.

We all have those moments when we can't stop and we lose more than we can easily afford. We act as addicted gamblers during those times, and one might ask "What's the difference?". And the difference is that it happens very rarely with us regular gamblers, like once in a year or even less often, and with addicted gamblers it happens all the time.

Playing with control and a healthier mindset will enable us to play gambling more thoroughly and responsibly, gamble with money that we are ready to lose and don't chase high wins, enough to have fun and enjoy gambling will keep the desire away from continuing to gamble with a healthy mindset will help prevent us from becoming an addict.

Since this is possible then why do we keep seeing some people being under addiction or found with one or more abnormality attached to their gambling lifestyle experience, we have some benefits and advantages meant for us to have by default without any more discomforts coming in along with them than when we on our own way introduced some to our gambling experience, we have the control to this and what we determine to see is what we do and put in more efforts which turns to be either we are gambling responsibly or not.
This happens because people still have the choice to do whatever they want, even if this goes against their self-interests, and in fact this is very common and starts from a very early age, after all who has not seen a kid which does not like to eat vegetables or that refuses to go and see the dentist?

A parent could explain why doing certain activities we may not like could be for the better, but at the end the kid still does not want to do it, and this is the same, we all know what we need to do to keep our gambling under control, but if a person does not want to follow that advice then that is their decision and we cannot do anything to change it.

Still ends up with the self-will of the person, I like that example and it was a good comparison even it's clear in our mind that gambling can harm us without proper control we still continue and we still test our limitation, to the point that we exceed from the target and that's where the problem begins, without strong system inside you to prevent or avoid yourself to engage that much, you are still prone to addiction, we cannot conclude anything as it's really self acceptance and self base opinions.
Very good point, gambling in itself has always been a self will thing, I've never come across any body who claimed to be forced into gambling..
Gambling is always a self made decision, atleast until the gambler becomes addicted, that time, we cant say for sure if it's still a self made decision, like a friend of mine who was heavily addicted told me one time that he wants to stop gambling but don't know how, I told him to just stop, but he said he tried several times, but only time is doesn't gamble is when he doesn't have money, as soon as money enters his hands, he only comes back to his senses after he has gambled the whole money away, this shows how bad gambling addiction can be.
