Gambling is for everyone who wants to gamble in any casino, regardless of their reasons, the important thing is that they can get what they want to gamble in a casino.

Because gamblers have different reasons, some players gamble just for fun, and others gamble because they consider it a source of income, and others gamble because they have an addiction to it.

That's right, of the three types of people I can say that, people who only aim to have fun he knows when to stop and when he has to play and he also uses money he is ready to lose. The type of person who makes gambling as a source of income, at this level becomes more dangerous because usually they will continue to play until he really wins and he forgets the limits when he loses and has to stop. And thirdly, this is the most dangerous, because people who are addicted will usually do everything they can to make their desires play fulfilled and usually people like this will quickly be destroyed by gambling, because they really don't know when to end the game while they still have money to bet.

He cannot undo it anymore. Hope that your friend learned a valuable lesson from that experience.
I've been there too, there were times that I thought I can make gambling as my source of income but it turned out to be the opposite.
Just enjoy playing. Set limitations and remember to follow them.

Not all gamblers are strong, some really fall into this trap and become more greedy, unfortunately a lot of bad news already happened before with gambling, i believe they are too emotional and loss a lot of money. I guess we all have this kind of scenario where we chase losses and thought to play more, again many didn’t succeed on this one. So if you have a friend who most likely will gamble like this, better to remind him and tell to your friend to move on and forget that losses. Being too emotional are not good as well in gambling, avoid such emotion.

That's what gambling does to you. You lose and chase the loss. It's like a carrot hanged in front of a Donkey and you are riding it. In the Donkey case it does not lose anything but the master gets what he wants. But in gambling you lose your hard earned money, bookies get what they want.

Gambling is for donkeys unless you are paying for the fun knowingly like you pay to watch a sport.

I think everyone will experience that kind of irritation and sudden change of mood if a person was soaked in gambling. I have strong will and good control on my bank roll but still I experienced this kind of mood whenever I lose my bank roll despite I’m playing moderately. The only difference on your friend case was he might be experiencing too much loss that usually result to long term depression and mood swing which is very hard deal.

Human mind is very hard to measure if we can handle gambling effects or not therefore it’s impossible to categorize if we are strong enough or not.

Gambling is for the strong and sturdy.
I got this caption based on what happened when I visited an old friend of mine as it's been long since we saw, and so, after a little time out together with random discussions I discovered a sudden change in his mood while we're still chatting. With a steady look on his phone in his hands for about a minute or more as he scrolled up and down the phone screen repeatedly he shrouded his shoulders with a simultaneous regrettable look all over his face.
I took the phone from him only to learn that my friend has been calculating the whole series of losses he has made from all the bets he has placed from one of the gambling site he patronize. He had made a multiples of losses in almost all the games he had placed bet on right from the start of this year, even to the current bet of that very day.

But then he asked me' bro assuming I had gathered all these money I have lost through gambling and channeled it into some sort of a little business or project, wouldn't it have been better! At that moment I never knew the exact word to give to him as I never expected such deep a question, for the least I replied him was "hmm I can't really say".

With this, I wondered if other person's here in the forum that are into gambling too has at any point in time thought or felt that way, particularly when the losses are becoming overwhelming. And in that case, should such person stop gambling and rather divert such monies into something else since he/she ain't making corresponding wins or more, checking his bet history, Or he should carry on with hopes that winnings will start creeping in someday gradually?

Gambling is meant to tempt any person whether they are a gambler or not. Because gambling is for everyone and no one chooses it in my opinion. Especially with online gambling.

All money and possessions should not be consumed just for gambling, because all excesses and shortages do not help us. So we should only gamble with the extra money we have and not because we just thought. So we should only gamble responsibly without affecting the family we have.

Well, he already is regretful, he could start self-exclusion this time and see if it does work for him. It's always not good when things are done too much. Just as what they are saying, it starts within the self. Casinos are here to enjoy, anything more than that and done so chronically could mean more loss. So it's up to him if he fights the dream to win big. It's never wrong to dream for the future. Cheesy

first, when you want to play at the casino, you must have financial strength. so that if you lose, your finances will not be affected. it all depends on the control you have.

Next, come to the casino to have fun. not adding stress. what your friends are doing is playing with big ambitions. so the more he loses, the more challenged he is to win. and when he realizes he's got big exhaustion, he's going to get pressure.

however, there will be more money we spend on gambling than what we can win from gambling. when a gambler is aware of that, then they will not regret their loss.

The important thing is to play gambling with responsibility because we use money. Even though it is free money, we still use money. And if we already feel that our losses have increased, maybe it's time for us to stop gambling, maybe forever because we didn't get good results. If we can divert the money to other things that might be more useful, we will get the benefits.

But we can also keep gambling, but with a note that we have to be very responsible with the money we use and really can't exceed the limit. Maybe this time, we have to be more strict in using money to play gambling and be able to control ourselves as well as possible.

don't think gambling will provide a way out, moreover it can be a job that provides a definite income, your friend may already be an addict and it must be stopped before it gets worse, so far there have been many cases for example SBF betting FTX money at online casinos and maybe many other cases so don't expect that gambling will bring you a lot of money. play with what you can afford to lose not because you are a strong person.

Once you asked this to yourself then you are not gambling to have fun and you are not comfortable with the money that you are using to gamble, once you gamble and you lose money the right mindset is to forget it because there is no such thing as free entertainment you're buying it on casinos, that is why casinos whether online and offline promote themselves as an entertainment portal, not an investment site.
You only regret the money that you lose in an investment company but not in gambling because in their terms they tell you to play with money that you can afford to lose, if not then it's your fault.

I feel like here the mistake is that he only sees the losses and not the wins, I don't think he is in profit for the long run but his loss can't be calculated just with the sum of all his lost bets, the wins must be part in that equation.

And if he is feeling that way, maybe he is in time to quit gambling and start saving money to invest in a project, if that way is more profitable and less stressful for him, then it is time to take action.

There could be a chance that there is/are individual/s here who have felt the same way like the friend of yours. Moreover, can't really answer it for them but if you try to divert your attention to other stuff fully then you can possibly do it, with persistence and discipline. Gambling in fact shouldn't be considered a way to ease your life, yeah it could be but thinking normally it shouldn't have to be considering the high risk involves in it.

Gambling Is for anyone that is interested and not for the strong only. That your friend is a chronic gambler from the way the story is narrated. Your friend have to know in gambling the more you gamble the more you loss, out of 100 games played by a gambler, it is only one to three is likely to be won. And the last statement of the last paragraph in your has completed your friend's mind. That is the only slogan for real gamblers, so even you advise him to stop gambling definitely he will come back again because it part of him now. So I will only tell you to advise him that he should reduce his betting rate so money can be diversify to do other things in his life.

Likely your friend is an addict that have spent huge amount of money on gambling, the best would be to just channel huge amount of money on something else. If he is feeling tempted and not able to use a small amount of gambling, he should leave gambling for many months without visiting any gambling site or place, he should focus on business.

I suspected the same because only an addict will gamble to the extent of spending their entire life savings on gambling after all, we all know how gambling intensively and consistently can ruin one life, so we are advised to gamble with an amount we can afford to lose.

Ops is in the worst situation and only total withdrawal from gambling will help him.

If you depend too much in gambling you'll end up drowning in regrets later on. I haven't had that feel, neither have I ever sat down to calculate all the money I have wasted in gambling thorough out the whole year and even if I did I'm sure I won't feel anything because of the amount I have used. After all gaming should be for entertainment not for a means to earn passive income.

When we are asked to always allocate a certain amount for gambling, there's a reason for it. When you're able to control the amount of money that goes into gambling at the end of the day you won't have much regret, but if you're the addictive type that does not know how to control yourself I'm sure you'll end up in Op friend's shoe.

Based on your topic, gambling is a general thing and not for a specific kind of person, apart from those who are underage. Either weak or strong, anyone can gamble so long as they have an interest in gambling. Your friend is regretting his losses, but he should have known better that gambling is not a consistent source of income. If he probably likes business, then he should invest in business and then use his profits for gambling (just a suggestion, not advice).

There are people who find it difficult to handle losses in gambling, but when a person can't handle losses, the best option is to quit.

Gambling are for those seeking for entertainment and not for those seeking money source. Gambling is designed that house will always win no matter what kind of strategy player has because all the gambling games is based on luck.

Even a strong mind or will find gambling a very difficult game if he is looking for a source of income rather than for entertainment only. Only Poker and Blackjack that card counting is applicable are can be categorized as source of good funds if you have skills on it.

There come a time in the life of a repented gambler and he will start thinking he is not going the right part for him and that is the stage that your friend is and this is because he is not making profit and having a quiet moment to having a rethink with you as a second party seeking approval. He simply needs a help and willing to try the help but remember a gambler is always a gambler, he might still go back to it and this time with greater commitment with the brightest hope of winning big. However, if he will win big or not depends on his renewed strategy.

There are people that will go through that because it is normal to do a check on yourself after sometime but in gambling, the real addict don't see anything wrong losing because they always understand there is a winning day for them. Gambling is getting more popular and it is as old as humanity so you always have more numbers of newbies than the numbers of quitters and quitters later rejoins.
