Discipline and gambling are two different things. In our region gamblers are not appreciated and they always face criticism and distress.
But its very good to know that many gamblers are disciplined and they don't steal other people's money and don't have lust for taking advantage of other. I have hardly seen selfless people who are concerned about themselves and are not selfish at all.


That's just being an average, decent human being nowadays. Never knew that one can be applauded if they did the bare minimum of what being a human is. There are still a lot of gamblers that obviously know better, and problematic gamblers are actually a small percentage that requires intervention and outside help. Most people are still probably rational and know the consequences if ever they tried stealing to satiate their gambling hunger.
I got confused on your statement whereas human needs to do the bare minimum to be applauded. Do you mean, being a discipline individual whereas you only do moderate gambling activities? Actually, since human are prone to addiction and greed because it is on our nature to do so, it is great to be appreciated or applauded if you will be able to minimize and control your gambling activities since we all know that gambling has all of the characteristics for us to be addicted and for our greed to be boosted.
Self awareness and does have that strong self control and discipline on which it would really able you to stop gambling or whatever you are dealing with when you do already saw that you are losing that much.
This might sounds easy to say but it is really that hard to be done or would be a challenging thing specially if you are a person who is really that greedy.Well, we do have do have that greed inside
but there are people who are really good on controlling themselves and there are ones who cant. If you dont like for your life to become miserable when it comes to finances then you should really
be that sensible for any actions that you would tend to do. I dont think Pros can outweigh the Cons considering on how things been affected on this one.

Indeed, these two things are different but at least if you play gambling without having discipline, you will not be able to control yourself and you can even lose more money. If gamblers are not respected in your area, it may be because people in your area see that those who gamble are using money that they could have used to open a business or make ends meet. So by having discipline, gamblers can control themselves so they don't spend a lot of money just to gamble and to make money.

Gamblers literally don't need to stop. Just take a break every after a painful loss and they can return again in action.

Stopping to do gambling is not that simple and it needs a strong dedication to do. But in the very first place, there's no need to actually stop. Just take it slowly and make way to moderate our gambling activity. In that way, we are not fully falling down to the negative effects of gambling.

I know it's hard to resist the temptation of gambling and chasing our losses is always the thing on our minds.

But if we don't do anything to help ourselves, then big problems are ahead.
If we still do discipline gambling, I guess there will be no bigger problems waiting ahead. Just knowing how to gamble moderately and of course, putting it into action will still make us profitable in the long run. Just try to always control your emotions when you are in loss to avoid more possible losses, otherwise you will go home empty handed and leaves the gambling casinos always with a heavy heart.

Gambling makes you happy unless if you always winning in it , but if you're not a pro and your just basing your luck on daily basis then i don't think you will be happy and it will become your stress reliever after all. Lol many people are frustrated in gambling and that's the truth, wherein these perspective is clearly for those who have good experienced in gambling only not the majority of all people who use to gamble.
So you are saying that you feel happy when you lose? Or maybe you are saying that you feel happy when you are entertained. For the rest of us, what can truly make us feel happy is when we win huge in gambling. We won't stop till we get it but if ever we got busted then fine we can still accept it.

You do not need to be a pro if your only goal to gamble is to relieve stress and you don't need a luck either but both of that are only required if you are playing for a profit. The only reason why people are frustrated in gambling is because of their expectations that most of the times cant be met but only if they learn to lower it then they can feel a lot better.

If gambling didn’t bring some good health benefits at times, there would be no one ever playing. Just being in the thrill of a game with money on the line, even just a little can go a long way for someone’s entertainment value. That makes a difference in your overall health. Of course, all done in moderation.

True. It's a fact that negative emotions can weaken your overall health. Even your immune system is affected by stress big time. If done in moderation, each session of gambling can be improving your mood, thus making you healthier. And if you are less stressed, you can work better, so you can improve your financial situation too.
Gambling could only hit us negatively if we're not handling it the right way to the extent that we're abusing even our health for too much playing. Everything that's being done in moderation isn't a bad thing. We should know our limits and control when it comes to gambling so it will not harm or even affect our lives the wrong way.

Gambling in moderation is how it should be done, and how most people do it.

The pros put by the OP seem to me to be more marketing than anything else, although depending on the context they are true.

Most likely scenario of someone who is a responsible gambler is someone who comes in on Friday, goes to their local casino (or plays online). He spends some time gambling with an amount he has previously earmarked for that, and if he loses it at the end of the night, he's been hanging out. If he wins, he has extra money for the weekend that he didn't count on.

The result of gambling will really influence to our mental and also physic. I am sure that everybody has different conditions when they win or lose from gabmling. Some people may be so frustrated when losing from gambling, difficult to sleep and eat, and being sick because of the loss. On the other hand, some gamblers may be too easy to eat and sleep whenever he is frustrated because of loss in gamlng.
So that when they are winning gambling some people may be too happy without considering the next result rpobability. But some are able to cotnorl teir emotion when winning, by still amnaging the feels during gambling.
If they don't think too much about how to make money from gambling and can accept whatever the result is after they gamble, they will not experience what you say. It will depend on how we treat gambling and we should consider and use gambling as one form of entertainment with more risks than others. Retaining emotions is a factor every gambler should have if they do not want to lose more money. By being able to contain their emotions, if they get a win from gambling, their reaction will also not be excessive and they can enjoy their victory.

It is always better to assess your activities especially when it comes to spending out your money.
If you think about it, gambling is more on losing money rather than gaining money.
So you do need to think if you can afford this kind of lifestyle or just allot the money to other worthwhile activities.
If you know your limitations, you can possibly enjoy gambling. However, if you go deep, that's when trouble starts.
As long as people understand that they should gamble for fun and not for profits then gambling can be really affordable especially if they bet with cryptocurrencies, after all the minimum bet on a physical casino is very high and not many people will be able to afford it, but in the market of cryptocurrencies the minimum bet is so low that as long as you only gamble occasionally the amount of money spent will still be on the low side.

Engaging in gambling in moderation will greatly save us financial losses compared to engaging in entertainment outdoor.  Aside from that, recreational activities such as picnics, watching movies, and playing arcade games often have our finance in an outflow system.  The only reward is entertainment and happiness whereas, if engage in gambling there is a chance of getting back what we spent since gambling always involved a chance of getting back what we bet in a certain multiplier. Of course, we are talking about gambling in moderation.  Besides this kind of control, we are far from developing a gambling disorder.

This is the most interesting part. I think many people in their lives have met people who criticize gambling (or other "bad") spending, but at the same time have an expensive hobby that eats up a lot more time/money. Moreover, if you point it out to them, they get angry and say that "this is different" and cannot be compared  Grin
In general, everything is obvious: any activity that brings pleasure is good if you do it within reasonable limits and do not become a fanatic/addict.

I fully agree, that is why any activities in moderation will always save us money.  Imagine if we go out every day to party up with people and moderate it making us join the event twice a week will save us 5 days of spending money on that party.  The same goes for gambling.  If we moderate our time playing, not only do we save money but we have more time to do different stuff that will greatly help us to keep a tab of ourselves from gambling addiction

We do have different situations and status when it comes to financial aspect which means that spending and earning  income would be totally different to each other.
Some do earns big which they could able to sustain their other activities specially on leisure without affecting that much since they do know that they could earn
still big not like into those average earners which their income is really just good for their daily living.It would really be that dumb and no sense if you do still gamble
hard despite of the condition or financial status you do have. Try to balance everything and dont go beyond with your means and leisure times because this would really
be putting you into big trouble if you do tolerate it.

Now, I love sports betting because it honestly hypes me up whenever I watch the game live with my bet being on the line.
I can say, I am now relieved with the stress and regrets that I experienced before.

It does hype you up most especially when the game are close and neither of the team may win. But it would be a different story when you bet on a team that's been down by a huge margin. That's actually very frustrating to watch. Your favourite team will have to lose with a big lead from the opposing team while your bet is on the line.
I've had it a handful of times and  i turned off the TV and went outside to vent out my frustrations lol.

When you know that particular game is over then majority of us do really have or ending with the same behavior where we do usually walk out away neither taking up some cigarrete or would be distracting ourselves on doing something that will really diverged out our anger and frustration on the said bet.Yes, even though we do bet for fun and thrill but cant really be avoided on things that would really makes
your frustrated or getting annoyed with it which is something cant really be avoided but its not something enough for us to stop completely. Play in moderation and play fun
and as long you do have control into your finances then you wont creating any problems.

Regarding what you say about sports betting, you are right, for me betting on sports the chances of winning are much stronger than winning in a casino game,

Aside from that, sports betting is not just gambling but entertaining us well especially if we are familiar with the sports and to league itself.

The gambling part is a bonus for me since the sports I always bet on are the sports that I really liked since my childhood. Now that I can afford to do gambling, I step and advance a bit to take advantage of my favorite sports which might bring good profit to me.

But of course, gambling is gambling regardless if it's casino games or sports betting. Don't engage if anyone doesn't understand the risks.
