Yes, I do self-control when playing gambling because that's the thing that can preventing me from big losses. I have a bad experience playing gambling without self-control in my first time playing gambling and that's feel bad for me. Having good self-control in the gambling can gives us prevention from the big losses so we can enjoy gambling as fun activity in our free time. Gambling can change our thinks and our minds can tempted to continue playing gambling without control. When a gambler can't controls his minds, he will not cared about controlling himself or using limitations in playing gambling. Many gamblers already used gambling for a way to make money but not many of them can get money from gambling. We don't have to follows them to make money as gambling is not a place to make money and only place to have fun. That's why we must practice our self-control to prevents from big loss so we will not to be like the other gamblers that losing their controls in playing gambling.

Self-control makes gamblers be careful when playing gambling because they know that gambling is just an activity like the other activity. A gambler will be wise when they playing gambling and will not used much money because that can cause them losing much money without they can recover their lost. He will aware that playing gambling needs responsibility to prevent the big loss so he will not use much money because playing gambling is a have fun in his free time.

True, the problem is that it is not that easy to do some of the actions that are recommended and also the best to do for good, one of the reasons is because as you said that there are so many temptations in gambling that it can make a gambler even forget some of the limits that they have made before and also as we know that everyone has a "forgetful" nature in him, so it is very possible that they forget some of the limits or controls that they have made just because they see and are tempted by the many temptations that are in every session they do.

I think one of the keys is "decisiveness", you need to really apply this to your boundary planning because this is the only way you will at least be able to realize that everything you see is nothing more than a temptation that ultimately makes the situation worse, like when you are in a winning situation where most gamblers apply greed that ends up in a much worse situation.

Gambling is a really bad idea for the middle class as their money is very low and a person will never be able to afford a car easily by gambling. Losing is more likely than winning here if the middle class loses it will be demoralized and family life will be in turmoil. It is completely different for the rich they have a lot of money once they lose they can bet twice as much the next time but this is never possible for the middle class. It is better not to take the risk of the middle class in gambling not only you will destroy yourself but you are also destroying the people who are involved with you it is better to find other alternative ways of work other than gambling.

Yes, that's right, with strong self-control in a gambler, they will try to behave well and always be careful in all activities or actions they take, because they know that in gambling more people will lose. than those who have a lot of money so that he remains aware that he must maintain limits in betting as best as possible so as not to cause big risks.


Yes, this can be beneficial for yourself if you implement it as well as possible. Yes, the majority of gamblers will not be able to do all that because it could be that in the future they will be faced with temptations that can fade their good behavior. .
And this also greatly influences changes in his behavior, when he is on the right path then he will be on the wrong path because he has exceeded the limits in the gambling bets he makes, that is, he often loses money and the regrets he will get. .

Behavioral changes occur uniquely per gambler, I think nothing is wrong with the daily experiences of the player, before he gambled. If a gambler had a harsh day, his gambling session wouldn't be fun, and he'll get sad over it, coupled with his bad day. That's why it's important for gamblers to play when in a stable state of mind. Because most often our thoughts affect our games, when we aren't focused, the games we predict won't be well thought out and can return as losses. On the other flip, if the gambler only feels sad while and after gambling, he's suffering from anxiety and frustration. Which can be tackled by taking a break from gambling. Because addiction puts a gambler in this type of mood, he'd find it difficult to take a break. A gambler who is not addicted, hardly, will experience this often times, maybe once a while, after a huge loss.

I see you always say self-control, my question is, do you do that?
I agree with you that we should be able to have good self-control with the gambling we do, because in my opinion gambling can damage our thinking, where our thinking can change with the gambling we do, if we misinterpret gambling, maybe the impact will make us change our attitude. , maybe we can gamble excessively by spending a lot of money just for gambling where the winnings are not clear.
However, in my opinion, not all gamblers have strong self-control, because gambling itself has strong temptations, in fact I think someone who gambles with good self-control can become annoyed if they always lose. Having self-control is not easy, so if we gamble we should be able to exercise good self-control so that we don't spend too much money. Of course, as you said, we have needs that must be met.

Agree with what you have said and of course all of that will be part of the gambler being able to be in comfortable or safe condition from some of the bad influences of gambling, but I would say that gamblers are not able to apply all of that.
There will be times when under certain conditions gamblers are willing to spend larger amounts of money which of course is an unacceptable amount, they will do so when they really have different view of the opportunities that are present.
I have many gambler friends and I myself gambler, we have limits set aside for our gambling allocation each week but sometimes we go beyond all limits and bet larger amounts.
Only difference is that no matter what happens there is no regret that drags on too long and assumes that what happened will disappear because everything cannot be returned and it will only be an attempt at something stupid if it continues to be regretted as the desire to restore it arises.
This is change in the behavior and attitude of gambler, even though he is wise and responsible gambler, humans have an attitude that easily makes mistakes and no gambler is immune from the mistakes they make.

With learning self-control, a gambler will not trying to break his control and limitations because he knows that can impacts to his finance. He will not spend too much money just playing gambling as he doesn't want to see many losses because he only want to having fun by playing gambling. He will hold himself by his limitations to prevents the losses and anticipating the risk becomes bigger. He will thinks to use his money to fill needs first and will allocate some money for gambling so he doesn't use much money for playing gambling. He will always try to prevent himself from changing his behavior before and after playing gambling because he knows that playing gambling doesn't have to be too serious.

It's clear that with casinos everywhere, their goal is profit, so no matter what, the advantages that casinos have are very big and difficult to beat, we have to be able to accept statements like that. with those who become addicted to gambling and experience many problems, the main one being financial losses, in my opinion, it is because they cannot accept the fact that casinos definitely always win in every gambling they do, if they can accept that reality and be aware of the meaning from a gambling casino, it is impossible for big losses to occur, with the awareness that we have of course there will be no excessive actions. Of course we definitely want the gambling that is carried out to last a long time, in other words the money that is wagered in gambling is expected to increase so that it can This makes the gambling sessions last longer, but if they don't have self-control over gambling when their money increases but they can't wait to win and start to dare to increase the amount of their bets then there is a big possibility that the money will be lost again, as you said. . It's best if the money in the casino you are betting on has increased to at least double the capital, then just be safe by cashing it out, because a loss that will definitely occur can cause all the money you have earned to disappear again. Of course, that's not what gamblers want.

I agree with you, addiction and big losses and the problems that occur are not basically because of gambling or casinos, they happen because of excessive self-action. If we gamble appropriately, not excessively, there will be no such thing as addiction or Big losses are also a problem. However, with the many cases that occur regarding the bad impacts that occur due to individual actions, they are not caused by other people and casinos, and moreover, casinos do not have the element of forcing anyone to gamble excessively. also because they cannot control their emotions, they themselves are in a bad cycle, the risks and consequences of gambling are clear, but this can be avoided depending on how we respond to gambling, if we respond wrongly to gambling then it is not surprising that there are many bad things happen.

Yes, the casino will always have its home advantage, and this is something that we must accept, there is no other way, that is what a casino is for, that is why it is a business and Obviously a company, they have to ensure their profit, in this order of ideas we cannot be thinking that we are going to beat them, in any case, as I have seen on many occasions in the casino sometimes opportunities to win present themselves, and those Opportunities when they are won, we have to see if it is necessary to withdraw the money to feel it, see what he wins and obviously things are like that, he sees it with a different face, the rest is very difficult, for now the ocsas have to be menajeated in that Way, in case things can generate another How to save money to play , that's up to the person , but I don't recommend it, usually you always save money to win but you end up losing everything.

And precisely thanks to this issue, there is a lot of speculation that the addition is largely due to the casinos, and that is not correct, the addiction is firstly the responsibility of the player for not being able to control his emotions and secondly for having to Spend his money in that way.

If the player is clear about the advantage of the cases and also considers that the addiction is not the fault of the casinos, he would have a much greater maturity and not many mistakes would be made, because each mistake leads to addiction, and if the person does not control either your emotions or your money, well nothing to do.

Learning self-control regarding limits when betting is a step that all gamblers should take. With these limits, we as gamblers will certainly not spend too much money when placing bets because what is important for us is to meet our needs first and then use the rest. to gamble if you want to play.
So with this we will not be at risk in gambling because we have implemented disciplined and wise behavior as a gambler who is not excessive or addicted to gambling in general.

You mention all things that needs to concerned when we playing gambling and I agree with all of that. Yes, using limitations or betting limits can helps us to manage the money we used to gamble and when we use small amount of money, we will see the losses is not too big. We can also prevent ourselves placing a bet with bigger money because we know that will only gives a big loss. We don't want to get a large losses when playing gambling because that can makes our money will runs out quickly. We must prevent the big loss, especially we only use gambling for playing gambling and not make money.

Therefore, if we want to gamble, we should be consistent in maintaining good control, determining the betting limits that will be used for gambling, only using a small amount of money so that we do not experience large losses due to losses when gambling. .
And don't just hope to win, but there are so many losses that we realize that gambling must be controlled properly and precisely.

Usually, the desire to gamble in a family and the poor or middle class is dictated by the fact that people from such a family want to win money and solve their everyday problems. Buy a new car or house. And rich people play to amuse themselves. They have seen a lot of good things in life and it is very difficult for them to get vivid emotions. Therefore, they take the risk of losing some of their money for the sake of fun.

Yes, it's not a problem if he uses gambling for having fun but if he can't control himself while he playing gambling, sooner or later he will get a problem and his behavior will change following the result he gets. Many gamblers already change their behavior because of the results and that's impacts to people around them. When they win or lose, they can over reacted without thinking about the other people. That's why we must controls ourselves when we playing gambling so we don't give any impact to people around us, especially our family because they don't deserves for that. We can only use gambling for have fun and not because of the other reasons.

We can't generalize but I do agree that those who are already wealthy knew how to handle gambling if not all most of them is not dumb who will allow losing their hard earned money, same with you, most of them are only playing on some cases or reason to give some pleasure or kill some time, they are not really engage to seek for money, though again can't generalize as there are wealthy individuals who are well known to have engagement with gambling and they are really killing it.

End of the day, behavioral changes depends from how you handle your gambling participations, if you lose there's regret and mood swing while when you win, there's joy and celebration that you'll going to acquire.

no gambler wants to lose by gambling and no one wants to lose their money, so it is clear that if they cannot accept defeat, which is a reality that will happen in gambling, then they can change their behavior because they are not ready to lose their money. on the line. It is possible that they will become annoyed and return to gambling with the aim of recovering losses, but this will only put us in addiction and greater losses. I always emphasize that if we really want to gamble then we should be able to accept the fact that defeat will make us lose money. It must be accepted well, because it will happen. Don't gamble if you are not ready to lose or are not ready to lose money.

Don't think too much about the defeat that occurred because it won't be able to change the situation for the better. To make everything okay, we should be able to accept the reality of the defeat that occurred and think smartly not to take actions that lead to impulsivity. It's true what you said, handle ourselves with the discipline we have and also with good thinking so as not to take big risky actions such as depositing money back, because that's not the solution and it won't solve everything for the better. What you have to do is operate yourself, be aware that gambling is only a paid game, nothing more than that.

Yes, if the person enters the gambling area because he just wants to have fun to entertain himself, I don't think that's a problem as long as he consistently maintains good control, and if this is done well then I think it's not a problem. his behavior will change for the worse, but he will gain happiness. for the fun he had.
That's right, if someone pays attention to us by advising us to behave well, it would be good for us to consider this carefully and not reject the advice so as not to create a misunderstanding in a friendly relationship.

I think the OP is taking about gambling and how it can have an effect on your behavior. Aside other factors that could affect your behavior, I think gambling as an activity could have quite an effect on the behavior of individuals.
Like the OP noted, people cope with wins and losses differently and those emotions could then have a spill over into other aspects of our lives. Imagine a gambler who’s on a losing streak and his finances being in the red, tat person would likely be frustrated and would have a not so pleasant interaction with others.

They shouldn't have to experiences it if they can realizes that playing gambling doesn't needs too serious because playing gambling is just for fun. They will feel happy when playing gambling because they see that gambling is not for making money and they will not feel that their behavior changed because of playing gambling too long. Yes, the other people will also feel the impact to their lives as a gambler comes home with their feeling that they've got from casino.

They should think about the other people's advice so they will not have to playing gambling excessively which can make them hold their emotions. They can calm down while playing gambling and not rush to chase the win because they will think that the win will comes to them someday.
