The most important thing in gambling is for us to be self discipline and be conscious about the way we are gambling. There are so many people that have lost so much funds in gambling due to reckless lifestyle when it comes to gambling activities. Discipline has really made me to do better in gambling and I have fully control our my gambling activities which does not urge me to gamble when I don't want to gambling. Gambling is profitable and I think when we have self control one would be able to control every corner of gambling and live a better lifestyle as gambler.

Easier said than done... Where do we get all the regrets and awful stories from then? The same people that will vow with their lives never to gamble again, after being in solitude for the most part of the day, will be found wagering secretly... Self control isn't built in one night; you can have so much wealth and live in affluence but still avoid being extravagant.

What you call the URGE - so to speak - is nothing way different from addiction. That's a byproduct of it; it grows and evolves your mind in a way that you can't resist a whole day without doing it. Whenever you choose to gamble, there's always a thought of positivity no matter how awful your previous experience was.

Online casinos are now easily accessible and anyone can create an account and play.
Profits and losses can happen easily.

And at every moment where gambling exerts psychological pressure that makes me sometimes unable to control it.

When Win: When a bet or gambling game that we do gets a win, Greed will appear and this will influence a person to keep playing with a higher target.
Even because someone is too greedy to never make a profit and continue to put all their money into gambling, until in the end everything is taken back by gambling.

When losing: Defeat will indeed be a moment that will make a person's mentality and psychology down, and even it will interfere with their psyche.
A deep sense of disappointment due to an unwanted defeat makes a person tend to be more emotional and want to take revenge for the defeat and ultimately make bets and gambling games without any restrictions.

These two moments of winning or losing will be the reason where a person's psychology will be played in a gamble.
Someone really has to know how to manage their emotions so that they don't get into situations they don't even want.
There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.

Problem or negative impact of gambling are very often found in irresponsible gambler. The characteristic tend to be easy to recognize and one of them is that you don't know how to stop when you win and how to control your emotion at certain moment. Losing and winning are part of gambling - while the gambler must be aware of how he can be a responsible gambler.

In consequence - many casino have warned their customer to be responsible gambler, rollbit has also warned that to each of its customer. It's just - I admit it's hard to be a responsible gambler.

I quote it to you: Gambling With Responsibly

Responsible Gambling and Self Exclusion

Responsible Gambling

Gambling means entertainment, fun and excitement for the majority of our users. But we also know that for some of our users, gambling has negative side effects. In medical science, pathologic gambling has been recognised for many years as a serious sickness.

Since our first day, we have thought about this problem and try our best to help where we can. Under “Responsible Gambling”, We understand multiple steps of measures, with which a gambling provider can help to reduce the possibility of negative side effects appearing. -In case they already appear, we also try to take active steps against them.

The most important instruments against negative side effects from gambling are knowledge and education about the risks of gambling to support our users’ self-control.

Otherwise with some discipline, gambling is easy for sure !!

I sometimes find this very disturbing as anyone whose focus and imminent intention is to make lots and lots of profit would easily fall for it... But, that's exactly the essence of the casinos creating such pathways; one thing you gotta understand is - These casinos ain't really fair enough to the point of allowing a user to win 100% all the time. So once you start feeling like there's a way you could maneuver, you'd certainly lose everything without realizing it.

what stirs their interest the more isn't the fact that they're losing, it's the fact that each time, they tend to see a possibility of winning; so they wager with $10 and win a little, what follows next is a big regret for staking less and, that's how they increase their stakes and lose everything

For me it's much deeper than just winning or losing. I usually bet to either feel more excitement and adrenaline, or treat it like a social event, to have more fun with friends. It's a game after all and games are best played in good company. The way I see it, you need to get some joy from it, otherwise you'll feel miserable after a while because when you lose there will be nothing left to hold on to. I can at least say I had fun, or I bought myself an adrenaline shot. Someone who started betting his last money so he could pay his debts is going to be devastated after a loss.

If a gambler has only one target, which is usually to win. Then, more than likely, he will be on the depression side if he couldn't achieve it. And let us admit the fact that winning is not always on our side. This is gambling and winning is usually slippery.

So if you want not to get ruined by this activity, have fun at least. Which means, you are also using your spare funds so you won't be on the chasing side of losses. Gamblers start to carry their burden when they decide to use their funds coming from their basic expenses or taking a loan from somebody else.

Lack of psychological control actually causes the whole winning and losing syndrome. Sometimes our mind get indulge in some things we try very hard to avoid which is the chase of loses and when you can't control that you can just end up losing your focus and mental health also, it can affect emotionally and in so many ways too.

Chasing losses is the common dilemma among gamblers. That is because they want to recover what had been lost especially if it is not their money in the first place. However, truth be told, it would be hard for someone to recover it if you are playing luck-based games in particular.

Basically, gambling is given to users who already understand the risks that each of them will experience, that's why every gambling site emphasizes the word "Play Responsibly", that is meaning that you have to understand all the worst risks that can happen to you. And in fact, many gambling site providers provide certain features for their users to stop gambling, i believe this is aimed to players who cannot limit themselves in gambling, or fall into addiction.

Actually, many posts are similar to this, but i keep supporting any kind of posts like this continue to be always still exist, because i am sure that there are still many people who gamble but don't know the limits, so they don't play responsibly.

Yeah, I've seen people going through that emotional roller-coaster, especially after losing because it leaves a mark on your brain that isn't easily removable, and this happens to some people and not all, but those who this happens to, they go through a lot of emotional torture because they can't forget about it. Such people might try to not make more deposits or try and recover their money, but they can't help it because their brains don't let them focus on other things.

They get out of this situation only if they make another deposit, manage to win and recover their money and exit with the money before losing it again. If, unfortunately, they lose the money again, they start getting deeper into this and this thing starts affecting their mental health to another level which can sometimes be very dangerous.

This is why gambling isn't recommended for people who don't have much control over their emotions and actions.

It's all dependent on a person's mindset. Someone who gets into gambling should have their thoughts and understanding about it clear, they should know that gambling is a risky thing, you are safe as long as you are in your senses and don't overdo it, as soon as you start becoming greedy or try to recover your losses, your downfall in gambling starts right from that moment, and those who know these things and have them in their mind at all times wouldn't get in situations that they don't want or can't handle.

I gamble as well, sometimes, but I have never spent an excessive amount of money or time on gambling. Why? Because I know what gambling is and what I can and can't achieve from it. If I'm trying to become rich from gambling, I'm out of my mind because that's a rare occurring and it doesn't happen to every gambler, and if I'm lucky enough to witness something like that, I wouldn't need to spend a lot of time or money on it but I'll be blessed within the amount of time and money that I'm spending without overdoing it.

The psychological factor is very important in our next decision based on those situations. In any case, the choice will not be correct if we are in a time of turmoil or pressure for any reason.
Everything about gambling is just feelings. Thus, you can enjoy entertainment, hope of profit, enjoy being among people, or certainly spending time on slot machines. But there are other feelings and imotions, such as anxiety, remorse, and somewhat guilty, that most people feel at some point, even if only for a short time. It is easy for a person to forget this aspect of gambling, but often these feelings accumulate, even if they do not happen many times.

This may not happen immediately, and many people do not understand the effects of gambling. But a person should be aware that gambling is not only about money, but rather realize how he feels and acts with it.

yeah, gambling was never just about winning or losing gambling is connected to psycology. a lot of things that you do in gambling can affect you mentally if you do not have control of your emotion. its also why a lot of studies being done on gambling specifically to gamblers are related or connected to psychology.

While keeping yourself in check and controlling your emotions is key, the truth is that this is very hard to do for the majority of people out there, and this is because they are not used to carry themselves in this way, so when they find themselves in a situation in which they must do so or suffer terrible consequences, they have no idea about how to do it, which explains why despite people knowing what to do in order to not lose too much money while gambling, they still fall victims of it and lose money they could not really afford to lose at the time.

To learn how to control emotions is also a skill which can be developed and improved by individuals along their personal experiences, especially the aversive and challenging ones. Not everyone learns and improves with each mistake they commit, but the ones who are able to do so, are going to be rewarded by their efforts. Besides managing their funds with more efficiency, they are also going to achieve superior psychological health, while knowing themselves better.

To lose much money gambling once it's not a decisive mistake. It's the recurrence of this action which makes the mistake to be fatal, because when it happens, the person has even more difficult to control his emotions, because besides the bitter taste of the present loss, there is also the accumulated frustration and trauma from past losses which add to the current suffering, becoming a big snowball of problems ready to smash the individual's psychological.

gambling is something that someone should think before going in, because when you start it it'll be very difficult to leave it and one man usually say that the casino gambling as a spiritual control over it. That they'll have a peaty with you from the starting and give you some winning so that they can buy your mind into it, but not knowing that with that you're gradually getting addicted towards it but all I know is that the casino gambling doesn't work with any spiritual control or something. Why I say this it's because they gave everyone their points and they also give a tips about it, that it's all about risk and luck and it's because of this two elements that makes people get out of limit when gambling.

When you win you become more addicted to gambling, while when you lose you become more curious about gambling. Humans with their greedy nature, they have lost what they should get. The big wins we have had could tempt us to bet bigger amounts than before.

And of course no one feels happy when they lose in the gambling they play or in a bet they place. Disappointment will certainly surround us, but in gambling or betting, defeat is a certainty that we will get. But instead of realizing this, the curiosity to start the game again and place a bet continues to haunt our minds. Gambling is full of surprises, and stupidly we always assume that gambling and betting in the next session will be better than the previous one, even though sometimes the reality says otherwise, where only defeat and defeat continue to follow us. And if we cannot control ourselves and our emotions well, then we will not only lose what we should get, but we will also lose what we have.

People who have a bad personality and do not know how to control their emotions will certainly be easily influenced by whatever the gambler gives, whether victory or defeat, this is how all psychological disorders are influenced. But unfortunately some gamblers are always motivated by their greed and also curiosity that makes the gambler continue to play until the money runs out in his wallet.

To anticipate all of that, we need to have knowledge and be able to control ourselves, how to not be greedy and not curious about losing, fix the purpose of why gambling, people who have emotions like that usually they pursue money and pursue victory from gambling, so they are always motivated to do more in gambling, and never stop until they feel satisfied, even though in the end they never feel satisfied.

Wait until you hear about dark patterns hehe Grin

People with low self discipline and maybe a not so stable mood are very prone to lose big amounts in gambling. It's so easy to deposit anything and lose it these days.
Of course gambling platform have an interest to keep everyone hooked and they'll use everything to their advantage. If something gives you a dopamine hit, gambling platforms will use it to their full advantage to keep you coming back again and again.

So it you can't keep yourself under control and have seen yourself falling victim to all these practices better just abstain altogether. Relapse is a real thing, and addiction doesn't just happen to drugs and alcohol. It might very well be gambling too and the effects can be bad as well.

Gamblers has some type of gambling pride that makes them not wanting to without fighting back accept the agony of loss. It's that feeling of been defeated without having to try to do something, that probably a flick of luck may happen to change things. It is that gambler with an intact psychology that will be willing to accept that losing and winning is part of gambling and any of the two that upshot has to be accepted without struggling about it.

Accepting the reality of loss makes you a better gambler because if you are ready ready to accept that you won, then you should be prepared to accept loss too. In fact, the moment you stake or wager any money on gambling, you should know in that moment that the money is gone one, you can only consider it as yours if the game really won something you place as prediction, this is the statement that says "stake the amount you can afford to lose should be remembered"

Quote

And same thing with the winning, when it comes you accept the quantity that comes up and walk away immediately without wanting to press for more, that's where the test of psychology which could also be referred to as discipline becomes necessary

Greed is all I see. There is nothing bad when you set limit to your rules in gambling, it saves you from losing games and when you don't even need to gamble in the first place. Phycologically, you will look stress at some point when you over gamble and you will lose money when you do this, most often you may not even make anything when you gamble when indeed you don't need to even gamble in the first place.

Gambling is all about understanding and when the understanding is not their in gambling, when one wins in gambling they can easily lose the money because of lack of understanding by allowing greed to take over. And when one is loosing and their is no understanding one would think if he keeps playing their will be chance of wining money. Having a good understanding about gambling will really help gamblers to have a food mindset on how to go about gambling. But when the understanding is not their one would want to play the way he likes which can really affect one's life negatively.
