Topic: Gambling habits that will cost you - page 12. (Read 6231 times)

Considering gambling as an entertainment...it is really hard cause it is addictive in reality. People aim for instant rich and that is the mean reason why they keep on gambling everyday. They are just motivated how others win and hoping they'll still have luck for this. We can't blame them of course but I'm just a little bit disappointed when they put their money at risk which is supposedly it could be in their family  

Is important to start with a goal, and if we are up but we have reached the goal is important to ask ourselves if it really worth it to keep trying, i have seen people losing bog money chasing the last $5 for the goal. So, don't be greedy and if you have a bad feeling then quit playing.

How is gambling ever a good habit? I mean how can you make that analogy? People gamble away their homes, money, parents, wives, lives, you name it.
I find it ironical that as human beings we are incapable of handling the pressures of gambling yet somehow we are drawn to it. Like flies to the light in the midnight.

And that thing you said about friends. A gambler never has enough good friends to pull them out when required. It's rare.

Yes, that is right, and I already have those experience, and that is hard to stop the habit if we don't have a strong mind to control ourselves. All is about to control ourselves so we can slowly turn the bad habit into a good habit and that will need time before we can stop it. We need help from a friend who will stay beside us to take care every time we play gambling and remind us to leave the gambling if the situation becomes worst. Gladly, I have that friend so that I can leave some of the bad habits in me.

- Don't gamble at all.

- Live a productive life.

I mean it may sound like counterintuitive coming from a guy that spends so much time here in the gambling sections but I sternly believe people should give up gambling unless they're doing it for living. Even then they should take care that it stays professional and never - NEVER - becomes a habit or addiction. Then you are screwed. No list will have any value then.

The emotional part really triggers us, I've done that before and regret what I did. And I'm sure that many also experienced this though it's already a lesson learned for me.

I would like to add also that do gamble with legit crypto casino's only. I've seen many complains about those gamblers who deposited to the fake and scam casino and most of those casinos were newly created.

Gamble only if you have money that you can afford to lose always so you will not think about it even you lose another thing limit your bet with that because the long you gamble then high chance that you will lose in the end of that,Moreover always practice before do risk here like you need to do what you practice to make better here like high chance that you will win

Don't follow tipster choice if you don't know what you are betting for.

Especially at sports betting, newbie gamblers will just follow tipsters because they saw how good that tipsters was without knowing that this tipster actually have a lots of bets on-hand at the same time so in case of a loss on a certain game, they also have other chance to win on other games. Unlike those newbies who just follow a single bet and will lose in one single bet.

1. Totally correct. It happened with me few 100 times if not thousands.
2. That's when I lost most of my money.
3. Luckily it never happened with me. I never had to loan for Gambling
4. Man! I can not count how much I lost in these folds. I am too greedy.
5. Happened with me several times and always lost the money. I can not remember a win in this kind of situation.

The bet time for winning for me was/is always when I am cool and unbiased.

6. Do not get excited with the win and bet with the winning money thinking that it's okay to lose. You will find yourself lost the winning and then again you are betting with your initials.

Edit:
What I do is, I request for withdrawal.

- Quit while you're ahead.

- Don't make a new deposit to recuperate losses.

Those that have been gambling for a long time will agree with some of these bad habits (if I may call them this) which I have found to have a negative effect on our gambling experience.

Any comments or additions, drop them in the thread

1. Cancelling a withdraw because the sportsbook takes long to process it or because you saw a game you think will bring easy profit, stop right here.. my advice don't even think about cancelling this it's a trap that will leave you with no money to withdraw.

2. Don't gamble while you are intoxicated, for obvious reasons judgement is impaired and you will be reckless with how you play.

3. Never gamble with money that isn't yours, this includes taking out loans for the purpose of gambling  because this always ends in you losing all the sourced funds and will result in putting yourself in bad books with friends and family.

4. Avoid accumulators, sometimes these are good but if you in it for the money avoid them! I know many will say if you don't risk it you won't win or say something like "go big or go home" but honestly think about it , you place an accumulator with 3 games and 2 games with big odds of 5 and 7 odds go through and you are left with the multiplier of 1.2 odds which goes on to lose I guess you get my logic

5. Avoid gambling when you are angry or feeling emotional about something or someone, this too affects your game. If it helps talk or see someone before you do something you will regret.
