I understand and i somewhat experience this situation and now i tend to stay away from casino because i dont have self-control. I learned to accept losses because chasing it will only lead me to more losses which will sink into me when i spent all my money.

Good to know that you know this and you have decided to quit gambling. You can develop the skills and self control and then again resume the gambling. Gambling will surely eat your money and make you sad if you do not play sensibly.

Yes, we have to gamble it wisely otherwise surely it will damage our money, even though we gamble it perfectly everything will hurt us a lot in some cases. Some times due to loos in gambling makes us more headache about gambling and for that, we have to refresh our mind by gambling free games.
The statement is correct after facing with some certain lose in gambling that is exactly resulting in eating your brain as well as your money. This factor does work for all the gamblers as they know that they will either win or lose a specific game. No one will realize it before facing with any lose in gambling for the first time they are doing so. Refreshing your mind with free games is what it means, it is mainly for fun.
Gambling should not make you depressed, is the main function is to make your mind happy and refresh isnt it? not make your mind more dizzy. the point is don't use your saving money to gamble, use special money to gamble, so even though losing it won't stress you out

If you are not careful gambling can consume much of your time brainpower and money.
There are so many online casinos to play at and with all of these playoffs occurring in EPL, NBA and NHL there is tons of games to wager on.
It is not a good idea to go into a gambling mood without eating.  I find myself to be making irrational wagers when i am hungry.

Some say that playing without taking meals makes you more productive but in long term, you are  slowly dying. This is too much, don't chase any losses and sacrifice yourself just to achieve it. Gambling can eat your brain if you play not good, don't blame gambling for being like that because you are the one who made it try to play without greed.

Many people think that gambling is a way to make quick money, but that's not the case. When i started gambling, i was quite happy, as i won a few round and make some quick money, but as the time passed I just lost all my funds.
I am one of those people who strongly believe gambling as a place to make money. If I am not doing it with the aim of making money, why then am I now playing? I am not disputing the fact that the game is interesting and can as well be entertaining, but the goal of playing is always to make money.

Most of you all that always blame people not to see gambling as an avenue to make money are not always been sincerely to yourselves. You incautiously play for money but you are not aware and that is the reason you feel sad whenever you make loses. If you actually play for fun alone, then you wouldn’t feel bad when you lose.
Keep believing gambling as a place of income and you will come out of your nightmare the day you loose an amount that will take you months to recover from the hurt. Gambling is meant to be an entertainment and if you trace down to the history of gambling you will realize that people who played then did it more for fun.

I am not disputing that you cannot make money from gambling but don’t let your mind see it as a place for money, otherwise you get thorough hurt the day you loose and that mindset can make you commit big money because you want something big in return. Just be wise
Maybe a lot of people will agree with you. We not means if gambling is something that make money. But if someone already think gambling is be something that can be income source, he will end with bad.
I don't think so, actually I think that besides being entertaining, I hope for win and profit too in gambling. which means, I hope gambling is my income also, but in reality gambling does not make nightmare to me, I draw the conclusion that there is nothing wrong with your purpose to gambling, the important thing is you know the limits and controls
Gambling as your income source is something making yourself foolish, you can never get success if your purpose is to make money. If you are investing your money in a source, the source should be responsive and there should be less or no chances to lose your money. Gambling is ways either lose all your money or win it. So, it a very good place for enjoyment, fun & entertainment and brain practice as well. In contrast, it is yes, eating your brain and money.

Gambling losing streak,

I’m into gambling for about months now, and in my first game I was able to generate profit enough to be happy, I continued for the rest of my 4 weeks of playing, sometimes its breakeven but I know its ok.

My friend invited me to play with him in casino this time, I have enough money to play for so I decided to say yes. Bad luck comes to me this time, at first my loss was about $500, so I know it is still fine and decided to continue, but the moment we stopped I think its too late now since I’ve already loss $3000, a very bad day for me. I’ve lost the money I’ve worked hard for.

This is an eye opener situation for me, and I’ve realized that gambling was slowly eating my brain and my money. Now I’m broke but still kickin, this can be the proof that chasing your losses is not good at all and it should be avoided. Have the same experience with me? Don’t hesitate to share and give some thoughts for those who are suffering from sitution like this.  Sad

The untoward incident as you said that was really bad day for you. Also you have taken a big risk about $3000 on one day. Then definitely you have big loss in a day. But if you use your brain and stop gambling on right time, when you have only loss $500 then may be you could save you from big loss. Actually sometime our greediness wise we have loss our all money in gambling, But perhaps you are right, gambling have more power than us, it can eat our brain and money easily, but if we control ourself then may be we could save ourself from this loss.

Sports gambling is not a king of game that will consume much time for a gambler, however the amount risk at this kind of game is bigger compared to other forms of gambling in the internet. One can bet over $1,000 for every game or bet, and that's huge enough and you can be addicted especially if that amount is not anymore within your range, or you chase your loses.

Gambling can eat your brain and money if you don't know what you are doing.This happens to persons who become addicted because their braind does not think about anything else except for gambling, this opens the way to losing your money too.If this happens only professional help can cure such person.

Exactly, gambling is eating our brain and money or even worst our life if we cant control ourselves. It has been suggested many times already that we should gamble responsibly by having our own limit as well as having a self-control while gambling. Gambling should be considered as a fun way to spend our money instead of something that will make money for us. Recently I lost some money in gambling continuously but I do not feel that bad becuase what I have lost is still under my limit.

To be honest, I don’t think it is gambling which is eating our brain and our money, but it is your over expectation and your green which tigers you toward lose and does not gives more earning than that you expect to have, gambling has positive impact in our life if we are losing it is our own mistake we will have to manage our internal greed for profit only, gamble with your fully senses and play with interest and enjoyment so it will make your mind even more sharper.

It's good that you have learned your lesson in gambling, what's unfortunate is that you have learnt it the hard and expensive way. Most gamblers get addicted to it because they thought they were just having fun, but as time goes by without noticing entertainment becomes greed. You keep losing and chasing for those losses makes you waste all your hard-earned money.

Play with moderation and just enjoy gambling on your free time. Do not waste too much time and money on it.
I really don’t know why we always have to learn from personal experience. Regardless of all we learn about how to avoiding loses in gambling we still end up falling victim and it sometimes looks mysterious. There’s just this thing with gambling, that makes players think they are always right in playing until all money is gone, not everyone loses out of greed, I call it determination to win.

I lost greatly in my last game and I don’t think I have learnt any lesson but rather, I am seriously contemplating on new strategies to apply that will enable me recover all that I have lost, and it will be wrong of anyone to call me greedy in this case.

I don't think so. I don't really believe in this. This will just apply to those people who are greedy to won and make money. For us who wanted to just have fun we are not like this. We will not let gambling eat our money and brain because we know our limitations.
That's what all say at the beginning but most of them end up losing all their money on gambling because they think they are too strong mentally. Gambling is one of the most addictive things and even though it's not as addictive as drugs or alcohol you will still lose more if you start doing it rather than just not gambling at all.

The limitation should be applicable to gambling and your self as well. Don't let that happen into your life while you are at an early stage that will possibly be avoided. These things will possibly happen to people who always wanted easy money those greedy people that want to have instant income through hoping that they will have to earn huge income. Chasing money on gambling make things worst and might you become a gambling addict.

Our limits are decided by our pockets and gambling is such addictive that it calls us towards itself and waste the money from our pockets. Also here, majority of peoples gamble to have profits and not just for entertainment purpose. We can treat gambling as a mean of entertainment only if we have our pockets and bank accounts filled with billions.

It depends on each individual whether he/she knows their limit because going extreme our limits even if you are already in bad debts is the start to end up being bankrupt. Gambling is something where professionals can fill their pockets whereas newbies would empty their pockets.

I understand and i somewhat experience this situation and now i tend to stay away from casino because i dont have self-control. I learned to accept losses because chasing it will only lead me to more losses which will sink into me when i spent all my money.
I'm happy for you because you learned how to control yourself by stopping and staying away from gambling. To be honest, there are times that I'm getting greedy when I'm gambling especially when I'm losing money. My mistake is I don't know how t stop myself when I'm losing but that is when I'm a beginner. Now I can control myself already. Just be disciplined and self control Smiley.
Learning from our mistakes is important, that shows we are matured enough to accept our defeat and adopt with a new strategy to still enjoy gambling but being able to limit our loses. Discipline will help us do it, not only in the losing situation but also in the winning situation.
Healthy person will always have a motivation to change the mistakes that he made before. Especially in gambling, just 1% you will avoided to do a mistake and the rest 99% some gambler will do a mistake thing. I always make an evaluation when I have played a gambling, either the money thing, strategy and psychology thing cause these factors will guide me to make profit or to make my money loss, so these are very important to make an evaluation in order to when I play again later I won't do a same mistake and by the way this way works for me.

Agree too, when you are falling out of self control in Gambling, no one should advise you before you do becasue in that process gambling is eating your money and at the same time eating up your Brain. Basically, in my own case am able to control myself whenever am in action(gambling) depending whether am at lost or on the winning side, self control still the best in gambling.

In this situation your greed showed up and you had to face a major loss due to it. The first time you had profits should be the time when you re-invest 50% of your earnings into your next move(gamble) so that even if you have loss you won't mind. Did you play in a physical casino or a online casino? There are times when we invest major amount of money in honor of our pride and greed in mind which mostly leads us to face loss as you faced one.

Loosing $3000 is not that small thing and it is good that you learnt from it. Learning your lesson was much important so don't think about the loss now. It won't come back but instead try to cover that loss in other activities.

In this situation my recommendation is to never get back to gambling because you will quickly get back to your old habits and you will lose self control again. Even tough for now you probably think you can control yourself once you start gambling again in your mind the same kind of feelings will be triggered and your money will be lost again. If you were able to stop now then end this here and forget about gambling.
