You are certainly right and I do not recommend using a casino every day to relieve stress, as well as poker and of course betting. All these activities, when used so often, often cause addiction, and therefore I recommend playing on weekends, or even better, every two weeks. To relieve a small level of stress. If a person is incredibly tense every day after work, then only a change of job will help him.
No, you can play, but very carefully. Not even every weekend. Why? As you already wrote, it leads to addiction, and also to the loss of money. There is a desire to win back what has already been lost. I fell into exactly this trap many years ago. It got to the point that I took out a loan from the bank to satisfy my unbridled passion. But at that time I had problems with work. Naturally, I lost all the money, and I had nothing to pay it back with. A terrible time came for me then. I had to go through so much that I remember those years with horror.

To gamble more responsibly, a person must have control over the desire to make money regularly because there is indeed no opportunity to make money in that way in gambling. When the desire to gamble, to be more controlled, allocate sufficient funds and stop when the money runs out, so that gambling activities will not have a bad effect on them. I make some considerations when gambling and usually allocate sufficient funds from the percentage of income at work that I get so that it does not affect the fulfillment of other needs for my family or myself.

Gambling as an escape will not provide a solution that actually adds new problems when we experience defeat and will eventually deal with loans to cover the money spent on gambling.
Self control will be needed by someone who wants to playing gambling responsibly. They must be able to control themselves by not over playing gambling and manage their funds by just allocation some money to gambling. They will not trying to use more money to playing gambling because they know the effect to that so they just use the money they can afford to lose. They know that they must avoids to use gambling as an escape because that will not be a right solution for them and even they can becomes addicted to gambling easily. Gambling as an escape just provide more problem to them besides of losing the money and addicted to gambling but they can ruin their life with their family.
Many people played gambling without a clear strategy and good risk management, so that in the end they are actually trapped in a vicious circle and it is difficult to get out, I think gambling can be very dangerous even those who initially only trying for entertainment are often addicted after getting their first win, it is undeniable that often gambling sites pamper their players with the ease  for winning at the beginning of the game,  But in the end bookies are no different from vampires who end up sucking everything we have  Grin , I never will not ban those who gamble but I just want to emphasize that self-control is very important for us to have if we really want to gamble although as entertainment, in my opinion gambling can be a fun entertainment if done wisely and within reasonable limits,  however, if we are has caught up in gambling then it will be difficult for us to escape
To escape from the vicious cycle you have to adopt many methods and be strategic and also consider gambling as a form of entertainment. Bookies are able to sense how addicted you are and accordingly begin to absorb from you and eventually begin to suffocate you. Be aware of your gambling habits and review how you can control yourself without finding a solution by not playing. Yes gambling is going to be dangerous for those who are not able to limit their money and time.

By having your confidence in gambling and making your decisions according to the situation you can reduce the tendency to lose extra money. Yes gambling can be a fun pastime if you keep yourself free from potential pitfalls and ensure proper use of allotted money and time. Trying to escape from gambling can be more dangerous for you and if you don't stay calm, you may have a mental breakdown.

The problem is that many people consider gambling as a sustainable way to earn money for a long time, but at the same time do not have an adequate gaming system. This means that they do not have a clear strategy, there is no risk management, there is no management of the size of bets, there is no good system for choosing gaming platforms. They have nothing but the desire to play and have fun. Of course, for many people it would be tempting to have a stable income combined with gambling. But gambling and stability are incompatible things. Well, or in order to combine them, you need a lot of experience. In fact, many players are only engaged in the fact that they gain this experience.

Basically, we should bet money with an amount that we can afford to lose or lose, this kind of behavior is indeed only owned by a few people who gamble because those who gamble irresponsibly tend not to be able to accept when the money they bet is lost in gambling even though losing money in gambling is something that is certain to happen but they still can't accept it of course that is wrong behavior because it will make them continue to be motivated to gamble again and again but does not change the defeat factor to be smaller.
For people who think wisely, of course they will not make gambling an escape when they get a serious enough problem, wise people when they find a problem they will find a way to overcome it and if they really need a break then they will do something that is not risky while if gambling is risky, it is not only the risk of losing money but it is possible to make the situation even more messy.

When we think of it as entertainment similar to a movie or something, we'll start spending occasionally, and we'll spend the money that is kept aside for time passes or fun and not the one that is essential for our daily lives. This is where the problem arises, and at some point, when the caretaker isn't able to manage the financial situation of the family automatically, there will be problems in the family.
As long as the money you will be spending is just a few extra bucks then I don’t think it’s such a problem to think of it as entertainment. Taking it seriously might even be worse because you would genuinely try to chase losses because the money you used is a serious amount. If we think that we can actually make serious money with gambling, we’d give everything we have if it meant having a bigger payout.

People never find gambling a source of entertainment. This is the reason why gambling is more addictive as well as more problematic. This applies to me as well, because we just believe it as a way of making money as well as multiplying the money we have in a simple way. Maybe this could've worked for a few gamblers, and for the same, we shouldn't have the hope.

It's only a person that is not serious will gamble from Monday to Sunday. If not for Eufa matches that are fixed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I'm not sure there are any important matches for one can predict to say that you are really betting games on week days, only on weekends you can bet on good games and also enjoy the matches along. Even if you are not used to betting, you can't enjoy casino games during the weekdays when you have work to do.
I don’t tend to agree with this apparently,
There would always be philosophical differences in this kind of stands to some ways to life of people.
You would understand that some individuals do take gambling for a career or means to livelihood (profession). Now how do you expect these sort of persons to go through life without having to gamble as frequent as it requires of them.
I don’t support having to gamble everyday, no, not at all. I’m just saying, it doesn’t necessarily means one is unserious should they happen to do so. Most especially, when they are profitable at it, it just makes sense to play.
I’ve seen people on this forum, have to argue about, frequent plays increasing success rate in gambling.

Using the casino every day is already a stress on its own based on my own experience. I also prefer to gamble within the weekend when I have freedom from work and other activities, but sometimes I just gamble based on the mood I'm in at that moment, but I have never gambled every day straight up in a week; some weeks even during the weekend I don't gamble at all.

Excessive gambling isn't good for ones health, you don't have to bet everyday to win big. If you have high staking power or can even wager reasonable amount of money, you can still make good amounts of money also the fun or even use it to kill time if you don't have anything you want to do for the weekend. Sometimes, you should also take some rest, as a gambler if you don't bet you wouldn't die and your money wouldn't reduce.

Gambling shouldn't be a burden for anyone. Gambling is for fun, it is not a place for a serious matter. If it makes you stress, there is something wrong with your gambling habit. Sure, it is not need to gamble every single day, it may not be an effective way in gambling. If you have spare time in weekend, kindly gamble at that time. To have fun in gambling and to play it optimally, you need to play it without any pressure. I also the same as you, I prefer to gamble when I have spare time at weekend. However, I don't always gamble on weekends. I sometimes don't gamble when I have a plan to hang out with family, go for a walk, or do other important things.



Problematic gambling start's from when the gambler begins to take gambling outside what gambling should be taken for which is fun and nothing else, I don't know why a gambler instead just doing it for fun will choose to chase after the winning and that is a very serious case that have resulted into the issues of gambling addiction, alot of those who end up with this kind of situation and outcomes are all because of they over involvement of money into gambling and also depending on gambling to make some frequent profits.


Some even go as far as taking gambling to be a means of making end need and a source of income, some even go as far as taking a loan from bank just to gamble with, and thinking they will make a good profits at the end of the day, but opposite is the results in most cases and if all things being equal the end up in debts at the end of the day because gambling winnings depends on luck and the house is always at advantage.

It is not like that in our country, there are different traditions. I will be honest, yes, there are times when I gamble when I am bored and I go there to get away from my troubles and end up getting even more I'm worried literally.
So, it's better if you just don't gamble at all whenever you're bored. I think it's human instinct whenever we don't do anything, we try to look for something.

And when we have found something to do like to gamble, that's when the worry and trouble comes.

Well, that happens when we do things that we're looking for when we're bored but then, you've killed the boredom but it has some counter parts.

Well, sometimes I don't deny that I sometimes use gambling to temporarily forget about the problems I'm facing, because it gives me peace of mind so that I can somehow think properly.
I feel relieved when I do this even once in a while when the problem or problem I'm going through is quite heavy.

And I don't see anything wrong with that, even though I lose when I play gambling during the time that I have a problem that I am facing. That's fine with me, it is because the most
important is I can think properly and think the solution wisely.

Perhaps it is because when we play those casino games and we pay attention to sport betting, nothing besides what we are currently doing and the money we have wagered cannot get our attention. Though, I must say it is quite impressive to me you can continue feeling relaxed and have a good time, even if you are suffering from a bad luck streak. In general I also get distracted from all the problems of the daily life, but I start to lose my cool when I accumulate losses in my session and I feel the urge to chase them, as soon as I lose my cool and feel I need to chase those losses I log out my account and move onto other things to spend my leisure time in. Ironically, those little bad experiences have helped me to grow further in bankroll management and realize there are certain casinos games I feel more comfortable with than others.
We all that had been gambling for years have had some experience that are remarkable and will always remind us of those days when we were still making mistakes chasing loses so we can regain the losses we had then. The story had been something else and I think we need to advise the current newbies so that they may know the problem they are putting themselves into. Gambling is not for those that are emotional that's why we ought to know what we are doing when we are so urged to double our bankroll. So many bad experiences then with money to make money but we never knew that risk management is the key actually.

The point is to be a responsible gambler you can only do it when you do not make winning your main priority and also only when you understand and know about what and how gambling really is, or maybe I can also say that the ease of controlling yourself and making yourself a responsible gambler also depends on what and how your purpose of gambling is.

Yes, making gambling an escape will most likely only have a bad impact, because usually an escape is an action with the intention and scenario to vent annoyance due to something else and if the place you choose is gambling then of course it will be very risky.
Making it as escape? How is it not an escape already?
Escapism is basically anything fun, so if gambling isn't form of escape, what is it and what it should be? What's the "purpose" you are talking about?
Because i would recommend that no one should consider it as earning a living, as that would be one of the most irresponsible ways to do earn it.

Imho gambling is escapism and should be only escapism, because there's nothing wrong with that. It's like netflix, you don't binge watch that either, because you want to experience the reality, fill taxes, or talk with someone. You do it because you want to take a break from reality and fun. It's an escape.

Yes I understand what you mean buddy, and maybe I will say that there are several forms of escape in quotation marks there are people who make an activity as an escape with the aim of venting the anger that is in them due to other things and there is also a form of escape from boredom such as when you are having boring free time then try to make gambling a place to fill time to entertain yourself, do you see that previously I said and directed the idea of ​​escape that I mean into the category of venting annoyance due to other things experienced by someone? Yes, so it does not mean that I am saying that gambling is not a form of escape but what I mean is we should not make gambling a form of escape to vent anger and annoyance due to other things that we experience in life including making it a place to earn a living as you said.

Yes, that way we can anticipate not to get addicted to gambling because not all gamblers can behave well when they have entered the world of gambling, when you can make an agenda when it's time to gamble and how big or small to bet on the platform, then that's very good for you.
It would be nice to gamble when we are feeling bored with what activities we should do to entertain ourselves quickly and easily, one of which is gambling and this activity can also be an event to have fun, not to make extra money because that is a big mistake.
