You know sometimes gambling can be this funny to some extent that one looses control of him or herself as a result of excessive wins or excessive loss. When this happens, you see a gambler being desperate to either win back their loss or continue gambling to win more but at this point, there should be some self restrictions from your own self. Limit your betting at that moment so as to avoid unforseen circumstances.

That is why it is advisable to always have a bet limit per game played for a day so as not to get addicted or hypnotized to betting more.

A gambler can become addicted for two reasons. One is an extreme win and the other can be an extreme loss. When a gambler wins he thinks he needs more winnings in the same way someone loses he tries his best to recover his loss. To avoid this a gambler must set a certain limit. If a gambler is able to keep control over himself, he will not become addicted. If a gambler gambles without being addicted to gambling, even if he loses, there will be no big loss. But when he becomes addicted, he loses everything.

It's more about the urge to win in my opinion and to trigger that, one doesn't need to win anything big initially but only the hope of winning something big makes someone gamble all the time and then they start becoming addicted to it, and after some time, they start feeling like they can't let go of it even if they want to.

That happens with everyone, the urge to win, but some people manage to control themselves from gambling a lot while others cannot do that and eventually become gambling addicts and then find it hard to come out of that.

If it is a friend or one of our family, we should try to help him escape his gambling addiction. Even though it may be hard, we still have to try.

It's something like a duty call since the person is close to us, if we can help him in any way that we can better to do and try.

Quote

Indeed gambling addicts will not think about curing their addiction instead they will continue to play gambling to satisfy their desires and to get lots of wins.

Gambling addicts most of the time continue denying this problem with them, they will not agree that they are already addicted and will try to find reasoning in defending their addictions, only a few are willing to admit and willing to accept the help in working it out to quit the addiction that they already suffering.

Quote

We also certainly don't want to see their lives destroyed because of gambling addiction, so we must continue to help them cure their gambling addiction.

Like what I've mentioned in my first statement, a kind of duty call because of love and care we feel about the person, even it's really hard to convince them but by keep trying chances to bring them back to reality and quit away from addiction is possible.

Gambling addict will not listen easily, they are drowning on their greed and they need proper assistance and medication, I'm talking about the worst case scenario of being addict in gambling. As much as possible, you have to help yourself if you are still in the early stage of addiction, it's not too late for you. These reminders are being posted here repeatedly and I'd hope that many are already aware about the possible risk of gambling and the threat of its addiction. If you can help someone who are into gambling, please do so because you can save his/her life by guiding them slowly but surely.

It’s certain that gambling addicts are not on their right thinking anymore. Instead of controlling their gambling activities, they even push their selves to the maximum limit just to be satisfied with their greed. So threads like this would not be helpful anymore. But what these gamblers literally needed are their family and friends to help them in their worst phase in life, if they can’t achieved that, maybe the help of medical practitioners would be the last option.

Anyhow we want to gamble we should just make sure that we do it responsible so that we don't later be a victim of greed that could make us to lose a lot of money due to the way to gambler irresponsibly. I have always make sure that I tried my best to bet in a way that is more profitable and less risky for me to avoid loses.

there's nothing you will tell me that will convince me not a gambler or per person who is a gambler is not a greedy person because from what I notice is that any gambling person more store have the signs of greediness and that greatness is what make them noto cash out what the win at appropriate time

I don't think so. I still believe there are responsible gamblers out there especially in this forum where this gambling addiction had been discussed a lot. They learned their lesson from their mistakes and they are now better gamblers who have not succumbed to greed.
Sports bettors especially, a lot of times we only gamble when there's a game and we don't really need to remain at betting sites for a long period of time. Just placing our bet is enough and then we rest and wait for the next game to happen again. Then, there is consideration like if we don't like the spreads or the game itself, we won't be betting at all.

It's tough to beat this addiction as it's needed to have huge determination to control and to avoid to keep moving forward, addicted gambler need mental help.

more on self-control and how you deal with your finances, it's a responsibility that you need to take care to prevent further damages in life.

That's correct. Discipline will be the key here. Without it, a gambler would just do it all in his own way without even thinking how much money he is losing in just one sitting. I've seen this kind of people and I think that is when I also learned to avoid becoming like them. IMO, that is an irresponsible way of spending money. Gambling is to entertain, not to empty our pockets/savings.

I've had a friend who was a chronic addict to gambling, I've had the opportunity of advising him several times, he does give a listen ear, and will even agree with you that all you said is true, and that he would try his best to adjust, or quit.

But the problem then is that, all those talks and advices, always end at where it was discussed, after we part, he will continue with his gambling, normally like before or even worst than he used to...
One time, he told me that he appreciates me for all my care and advices, and wishes to do all that I told him to do, but always find it difficult to get himself to do it.

So sometimes. It's not really their fault that they are arrogant, stubborn or so, addiction is really a strong force, that sometimes, takes extra ordinary strength to break free from, and such strength is very rare.

It requires a great deal of effort to break away from such addictive patterns, and many do not find the strength to do it until they hit rock bottom and they lose their jobs, family, friends, health and even their freedom, and there are even cases in which losing literally everything is not enough and those people get completely consumed by their addiction, and when that happens there is nothing you can do as no matter how much you may want to help this person nothing will work if they are not willing to help themselves.

Yeah, same deal with limiting your funds and participation with gambling. If you failed to control yourself and become an addictive
gambler, there are many things that will be suffered.

It's tough to beat this addiction as it's needed to have huge determination to control and to avoid to keep moving forward, addicted gambler need mental help.

Someone becomes a gambler addict, can be caused by many factors and reasons. the two you mentioned, are just part of the other factor. gambling, is part of the fun entertainment. a gambler, can become addicted due to many things. So, we can't infer from just two cases from what you said. in fact, someone who becomes a gambler addict can be caused by an escape from his problem. some others, becoming addicts can be due to their excessive activity, many of them do not realize that they are gambling addicts. so, we will find many cases related to gambling addiction. what you say, could also be a factor, an indication, or whatever it is.

Well, referring to what you said, to become a gambler who is able to control himself is a pretty difficult part. in fact, it is not easy. therefore, it takes responsibility and a high understanding of gambling itself. ideally, gamble within your means with money you can afford to lose.

If you are that someone whose in the verge of addiction then this is the time that you should really do your best on stopping yourself mid way on which you would be able to avoid on possible disaster on the time
that things gotten worst and dont wait for it to happen if you wont really be liking to regret for the rest of your life.People do usually learn things when its too late which they should have done it earlier.
You should be responsible towards your actions because if you dont then you would be feeling up the consequences.

Not only on gambling for you to be that responsible but also in other things as well on which you would be needing to be responsible and be mindful on whats good and whats bad or simply
been thinking on advanced on what would be the outcome or results if you do go further which is a must thing to have when you do really have that kind of dealing
on something.

I completely agree with you there that's why gambling addicts need help from someone close like a friend and family until that person is no longer a gambling addict. If you don't have someone to support you then I would be very hard to break away from being a gambling addict and if you ever did break away from being one but sooner or later you wi return to what you are before. Well, if a person always think what will if he/she will become a gambling addict won't become one just like other people who did it.

I was too happy because I got maxwin last year which made me even more curious about whether I would get maxwin again and try my luck by increasing the bet value in the hope that it would give me more wins to get in each round, thinking like this makes us go beyond the limits of abilities and limitations that have been previously set by myself, bad things happen and the game continues to continue by making deposits several times so that the balance in my wallet is very drained, and on that day I have a feeling of revenge and want a refund of the money that was bet before because the number is bigger.
That is what sometimes makes people addicted to gambling, and mature self-control is the key to getting out of such a bad situation.

Quote from: DevilSlayer on April 22, 2023, 12:35:26 PM

It is not bad to gamble, it will only be bad if we will let our mind control us wherein we are not embracing the risk and we are not managing our expectations very well. Gambling is for the people who have strong mental fortitude. Make a psychology test before you put your money in gambling if you want to not become an addict like majority of the gamblers.

I think people who use their minds are not easy to get addicted to gambling because basically they are aware of the situation and the pros and cons. What you might mean is that people who gamble use their passions so that they control their hearts and minds which makes them continue to be curious about winning and continue gambling.
That means I have to spend money first to pay for psychological tests.lol

Actually it is true that this thread is very helpful for those who are not yet gambling addicts and while gambling addicts will rather ignore this thread because usually addicts will find it difficult to take any advice.
Small gamblers like me will definitely understand better that gambling is a place to seek pleasure online and must gamble using small amounts and be financially responsible so they don't chase losses too much which can end up being addictive.
But for some small gamblers there are also those who become gambling addicts who find it difficult to control when betting and always neglect to gamble responsibly.

It is because of their lack of knowledge about gambling, or they have other motivations when gambling, such as trying to make gambling their job to make money. When we have become addicts, it is true that it will be difficult for us to accept the advice given by other people, we will even be angry because we think they are interfering in our affairs, that's what I learned from people who are addicted to gambling. They will ignore anything, they might even lose everything including family. Yes, hopefully here we become responsible gamblers with everything we do.

There's nothing wrong about this thread, but if you hope you can help an addict by creating this thread, you shouldn't hope to high.

Well, I guess this thread is made to create more of an awareness to those who still plan to enter gambling, but for those who are already gambling addicts, surely this will only be ignored. The only thing/person that can save them is their own selves. If they won’t admit that they are finding it hard to manage their gambling addiction, the people around wouldn’t know that they’re badly needed help. However, for soon to be gamblers, never see gambling as another source of living. Instead, gamble to entertain yourself and find pleasure in it.

We've all heard the saying a million times. Don't gamble more than you can afford to lose. If you're making a deposit to an online casino and thinking about how much money you're going to get back out, then chances are you're gambling too much money. People should deposit funds onto casinos to have fun. Consider it money that you just put into an arcade machine. You get to play and when it is all over you take the fun with you. If you did get lucky and manage to win some money, that's a nice bonus, but shouldn't be expected. You're paying for entertainment, not to get free money back.

You are absolutely right in this matter, it's really hard to gamble if what you have in mind is to win a huge amount of money here, this mindset is not a good habit as a player in a casino.

This is exactly what to gamble to have for fun and not to be your viciousness that is difficult to lose. Because if it was just a hobby eventually it would be a normal game that you didn't need to take seriously. And if you win and this is a bonus we play on the casino platform here in cryptocurrency.

The problem is that such things are most likely very easy said but not done.
Even though what has been said is true by prioritizing fun in this case, when applying or when we are in the middle of a game, sometimes we are in a frenzy and the desire to win is always the greatest desire compared to the pleasure there is. always say from the start.
Gamblers clearly know that and indeed there is a role to be played in self-control, I don't want to be naive because I am also still involved in the game that is being carried out but precisely with that we can make it little by little so that our self-control becomes better.

-snip-

Gambling addicts does not play just because they are winning. They are playing because they already developed an uncontrolled urge to gamble. Uncontrol means they will continue to gamble whether they lose or win.

It's true what you said friends and the majority of gambling addicts they are willing to do anything in order to be able to continue betting even the worst negative impact is committing criminal acts such as stealing, robbing or cheating in order to get some money to gamble.
Even though some come from wealthy backgrounds, no matter how much money they have, if they become a gambling addict, it is very likely that they will be destroyed and their assets will be lost without a trace.
In fact, the beginning of gambling addiction was because of the desire to continue to win and get a number of benefits and because of this it is a pity not to chase after a win and to be wiser in dealing with actions when gambling.

Unbalance mindset towards this activity, there are chances that you may fall to this level of addiction and do things that will really harm yourself if you won't be able to control yourself. Not only your finances but more on your mental concern, gambling addicted person no longer thinks about anything. They are more on how to continue gambling, to the point that they will commit criminal things to satisfy the lust or desire to continue playing their gambling games.

If you are someone who isnt really that good when it comes to self control or discipline then you would really be that prone to errors and mistakes which is something that we should really be avoiding
because if you arent aware on what you are doing or having that unbalanced mindset then you would really be get easily fall into gambling addiction which is something that we dont really like to happen.
Gamble for fun and dont aim for money or getting rich because this would be mainly the thing on why it causes for us to get desperate and pushes ourselves to play even more or further just because
of that kind of mindset then you would really be having that kind of probability that might happen later.

You need to balance both entertainment and your budget, if you will push yourself trying to aim for huge amount of profits then expect that chances to be engage too much and get addicted is really possible, gambler needs to understand the risk when playing or when you involve yourself into gambling.

If you don't want to lose a lot better to keep the entertainment and not to aim for big amount.

Quote from: shogun47 on April 24, 2023, 01:38:17 AM

I think it is also about personal disposition when it comes to addictions. Or perhaps also about existing circumstances that you are in in a specific moment. Gambling responsibly could also mean to not gamble at all if you know that you are in a psychological deadlock for personal reasons. It is much like alcohol usually isn't a solution when you have huge problems to solve. Gambling is similar to that as you would probably do it to compensate for something else if you find yourself in trouble and decide to go for out. If it is for pleasure only, gambling responsibly just refers to the relative amount that you are putting on the line compared to what you own and need for your life to continue as usual.

I agree, if you are not a fan of losing your money, it's always the best option not to gamble at all, else, budget your money if you like to use this venue for entertaining yourself, if luck permits then enjoy the winning profits.

Gambling addicts does not play just because they are winning. They are playing because they already developed an uncontrolled urge to gamble. Uncontrol means they will continue to gamble whether they lose or win.

It's true what you said friends and the majority of gambling addicts they are willing to do anything in order to be able to continue betting even the worst negative impact is committing criminal acts such as stealing, robbing or cheating in order to get some money to gamble.
Even though some come from wealthy backgrounds, no matter how much money they have, if they become a gambling addict, it is very likely that they will be destroyed and their assets will be lost without a trace.
In fact, the beginning of gambling addiction was because of the desire to continue to win and get a number of benefits and because of this it is a pity not to chase after a win and to be wiser in dealing with actions when gambling.

Unbalance mindset towards this activity, there are chances that you may fall to this level of addiction and do things that will really harm yourself if you won't be able to control yourself. Not only your finances but more on your mental concern, gambling addicted person no longer thinks about anything. They are more on how to continue gambling, to the point that they will commit criminal things to satisfy the lust or desire to continue playing their gambling games.

I think it is also about personal disposition when it comes to addictions. Or perhaps also about existing circumstances that you are in in a specific moment. Gambling responsibly could also mean to not gamble at all if you know that you are in a psychological deadlock for personal reasons. It is much like alcohol usually isn't a solution when you have huge problems to solve. Gambling is similar to that as you would probably do it to compensate for something else if you find yourself in trouble and decide to go for out. If it is for pleasure only, gambling responsibly just refers to the relative amount that you are putting on the line compared to what you own and need for your life to continue as usual.
