Topic: Gambling Distortion Pattern - page 3. (Read 5718 times)
I feel like gambling pattern 4 is what turns gamblers into addicts. When you gamble and complete one pattern mostly its gonna be called luck (by yourself of course). Give in enough time so you will one day do epic comeback for sure. It may take days or it may take years! But it will happen. And your brain will quickly consider it a epic comeback that shows your skill. Your chemistry will force you to play more and more. And you become typical gambler.

In fact this is something that novices can experience more frequently, I include myself there only when I was a novice, I had experiences as it appears on the chart, however now we as players who have a little more experience and know myself can say that things can happen like this but not with that behavior, sometimes we can stop the losses only with decisions that can make the difference between one play and another, perhaps because we already see the game as one more way to have fun and not to make money , since when we don't see it to make money, unwanted emotions enter, fear, stress, pressure and that makes us lose faster

isn't it interesting how expactations plays a role on relaxation during the experience?
if you have more expectations (wanting a particular outcome) it can make you more tense/less relaxed or more fearful, therefore more prone to mess up due to these emotional or thought conflicts
You are right.One time I was expecting to win the same amount of money as to buy a Mercedes CLS (what a f*cking idiot I was to think that) and once I started I was really relaxed calm,even happy as I was expecting to hit the maximum payline of my beloved slot machine at a certain bet most likely at 3 dollars for a bet.It started well it gave me the bonus round a couple of times and I increased the balance nicely only to lose it by continue playing as I thought the slot machine will keep giving me money (naive expectation) while in fact it took it all away and I become mad,tense and even nervous when talking to people.I do not do this anymore thank God.

in the end it's better to approach the world without expectations if possible
of course it's not the easiest thing, but it's possible.
in gambling it's hard to predict the outcome, betting in the hope of winning a lot and to keep betting with this belief is a recipe for disaster
That's right, and that lends itself to many interpretations, because I know people who say that you shouldn't be negative and it's not that it's negative, but rather that you have to evaluate the possible scenarios where that is going to be the case, it's more feasible than when one enters a casino that one can lose than win, that is something that is obvious, but there are many people who enter with the hope and make it in their head that they are going to multiply their money, and maybe if they enter like this and do so It is something that went well for them, but it is not a guarantee that it can happen again, so it is better to be somewhat more realistic, keep in mind that one must have the money willing to lose and not delude oneself with false hopes/gains.
Slot game will have a minimum bet of 3 dollars. In slot game we had a opportunity to get back the loss money. If we keep continue the work,it essential one to recover the loss. This is possible only by using the slot games. You should have a backup money to play the game continuously after the loss. You should have a mindset to play the next game after the loss of funds.
This is such a dangerous mindset.
If you will condition your mind to chase winnings after losses, you are most likely to lose than to win. This is because your mental headspace and capacity after a loss is not enough to handle any more stress and pressure that could lead to losing.
Even if you have enough fund, it isn't really advisable to bet based on your emotions and loss as your driven force. It's one of the great recipe for disaster IMO.
totally agree
what do you think is the best strategy if someone want to play?
maybe setting a fixed amount of money to bet and stopping if they lose it all or after earning a set %?
or maybe setting a time alarm to stop after X hours.
very common scenario or condition which a certain person would be having.When doing gambling then of course you should really be aiming for you to make out
some entertainment and winning is really just a bonus and as a person who do really mind about his finances then he should really be having
that control and could stop mid way if he wanted to.
yes, most popular strategies are probably on the realms of:
- limiting bank roll
- limiting total time available for gambling
- stopping after winning
- having a guardian angel to help you not to get to emotional
rational mind helps, but most of the times we aren't rational after all.

It’s essential to get back all losses. So you need to improve the game again and again for the longer period as compared to the essential one for the players. Loss is not a permanent one for the player involved in the game of gambling all the time.

You wouldnt really be ending up on a disaster if you are really having that limitation and being aware in towards your actions.Gambling is for entertainment but it do turns out that majority is really having that wronggood point

impression and beliefs that they do mold on and this is the reason on why things becomes being more desperate and on the time that they've been fucked up by gambling then this is where realization begins.
Dont make yourself that desperate on getting wins because in gambling there's always a slim chance for you to make yourself get out with profits.
Most of the time you would really be that empty handed which you should make yourself that prepared.
Indeed. All it takes is discipline. However, the sad reality is that, not everyone possess it. Which is the reason why a lot of gamblers suffer from addiction.
Some people have a hard time setting up boundaries and limitations. And they even find it more difficult to actually obey and follow it once they have made it because they don't have the discipline to do so. They tend to crave for more and instead of suppressing it, most of the time they give in. There's really nothing wrong in gambling and betting as long as you are doing it moderately and responsibly. It just turns out bad the moment you prioritize it over anything else and put it in the pedestal of your life.
Chasing winnings should be a no-no too if you want to keep your sanity because being desperate on winning and being greedy on taking the prize will just cost you so much. Remember, gambling shouldn't be your thing to rely on to earn money. It could be an additional stream of income for you, but don't let it be your main because it has so many risks and it isn't really guaranteed you'll win everytime. Always prepare for the worst, so never ever bet all of what you got just for the sake of having "fun".
I suppose it has a lot to do with genes, dopamine and emotional control
some people are just better with dealing with stressful situations and can control better after facing losses
others engage in revenge betting to try to "make it all back in one trade"
so forth and so on

Just like myself where i do already picture out on what are the probabilities for me to be get addicted with gambling which i didnt really let myself get involved too much or spend up much money.
Tendency and chances would really be there and this is where you should really be careful with it.If you dont like to be get addicted then you shouldnt really make
yourself engage on it too much.

People who is losing gambling and people who is winning gambling it is dependable on them or how they predict their own game so I believe that nobody is one of the most things that before you mean it you must understand the concept so they are form nobody should blame or give any draught that the dishes are gambling goes for someone to me I believe that it is good to give your own reasons it was meaning of gambling and does not gambling

3. Gambling Distortion Pattern III
Next is a picture of the third gambling pattern of course when you first make a deposit you get a total win, but here the problem is that you lose control and are too confident that the victory you just got is just the beginning and feel confident that there will still be many wins ahead. Conditions like this push you into a trap that motivates you mentally to continue to have big ambitions. As a result, the wins are getting smaller, little by little loss but still accompanied by uncontrollable ambition, finally, all the balances owned are lost.

I'm sure many can relate to this illustration. Almost most of the crypto gamblings, when there is a new depositor on their platform, will first give it a win as a trap for new gamblers.
I was one of those who experienced this too because the gambling platform made me experience winning no matter how much, but in the end, I still lost. But even though that happened to me, I thought that I might experience winning like that or more again, this is what was planted in my mind, but that didn't happen. It's always a loss if experienced and if I win maybe only 2 times out of 10 plays.
some say the difference between the poison and the medicine is the dosage
supposing someone can control themselves and gambling is just something they do for entertainment, not an addictive behavior, it should be fine
but I'd agree with you that most of the times it's not like that.

Perhaps this is a subjective impression, since we do not know all the statistics, and the news is mostly negative. For example, we can easily see a news report about how someone lost everything in gambling and killed himself, but we never read the news about how "John Smith visited the casino today, drank a couple of glasses of beer and after a couple of card sessions went home satisfied".
not so hard to imagine for these ones
I'd guess that the bad effects of gambling (people losing more than they can afford and everything that comes in this pack) will be bigger than the good effects (the fun people will have)
but I don't know, would like to see more data on that too

There's no wrong on still continuing to gamble as long you are really still in good control in your finances and behavior then i dont see anything wrong or making yourself that addicted.
Gambling wont really be a problem if you do really have that good self control because if not then you would really be having a huge problem which would really be in related with addiction.
Dont make yourself get control nor tolerate these things because it isnt really something worth on destroying on someones life because of gambling.
Everything should be in control or in moderation.

First, I'm sorry Sir, I'm going to contradict what you said a little bit. First, we know as a gambler that gambling is really bad. We just say that there is nothing wrong or bad as long as we don't apply it to our fellow man. But because we think that if we have control over our gambling it becomes correct in our assumptions and opinions.
However, since we can't stop ourselves from gambling because it gives us pleasure or happiness, it turns out that it is not bad or wrong in the eyes of us gamblers even though we know to ourselves that it has risks in the end...

Lack of self-control and self-discipline could ruin our lives and if we don't apply these things in gambling, we could create wrong decisions based on our emotions. Gambling itself isn't bad but things will depend on how we deal with it.
yes, I'd say gambling is a tool or a "thing" that is available" and is probably somewhere between the neutral and the bad zone.
managing oneself in terms of emotions and actions being in tune with what they want for their own lives is key.
really important.
