On both statements at the end of the day the casino wins its up to the gambler if they want to stop playing to assess themselves if they want to play more and still on their budget or not and take those as cut their losses and take profit. Sometimes players who win continuously wondering until where are their luck so they keep testing waters to assure if they are lucky today and if it is they will play as long as they can but if this break that's the time they will doubt if its their limit, same goes by if the player losses but it get worst until their capital getting loss they keep hoping they can win still with the last sort of their money.

A very lucky player would win continuously, but it's rare to see such people except for streamers. However, the psychology of gambling has to do with knowing when to stop. Testing waters is quite advisable, yet, not with two legs. Some players jumps into the game with the idea of testing waters and get carried away by the results of the game. When one losses, they tend to further their game hoping to win again.

It's a bad psychology because the mental strength of the player begin to dwindle down the hill. And he losses complete control of himself as a gambler. Setting out a specific limit for gambling would help in determining exactly when to stop. Hoping on results before we stop only sidetracks the self consciousness of the gambler and land him to problem gambling. If your designated time is 2hrs duration, stick to it, and stop once the timer hits 2 hrs.

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.

There are usually deeper and different reasons behind people who lack self control when gambling. It is often because they are in an unstable place in life and are looking for shortcuts to get out, however it's likely to put desperate people in a much worse place mentally after they are almost guaranteed to lose every session. The best time to be gambling is when you are secure in your life and understand how strongly the forces of mathematics are stacked against you ever winning big enough to overcome all your losses. It sounds stupid and is incredibly hard to break free from any ingrained habit, but ultimately that is the only solution - stop gambling and be aware of the triggers that will try to pull you back towards it.

Some people purposely put themselves in such psychological trauma that they can become so depressed and traumatized by the situation they put themselves in. I don't know if you read about the old topic where the man gambled with the money that was meant to be used for his wedding. The worst part of the story was that the money was not only his own but also that of his wife, but because the man thought he could win some bets and multiply the money, he spent it all on gambling and lost everything. After that incident, I wonder what the kind of psychological situation might be. 
I participated in this thread, it's a shame this happened. Anyway, gambling based on chance is a box of surprises and many times it doesn't depend on the player's performance, like slot games where it's 50/50. A weak psychology causes emotional dependence on games that directly influences the results (even more so!), as the player tends to bet more if he loses to chase losses and when he wins, he continues betting without stopping instead of withdrawing, returning to square one.

I think gambling should be seen as a hobby, you have to be willing to lose, that is, bet with money that you can afford to lose and not with money to pay the bills. But the adrenaline and high doses of dopamine when you are doing well in the game, make some addicted people want to take this risk.

Play for fun and don't see the whole thing as an investment.

Some people started gambling primarily for the purpose of making a profit, probably because their friends are making little profit from gambling. After they started gambling, they could not stop again, even when their decisions were always fruitless. I started gambling because my friends were doing it and making money out of it, but when I started gambling, I actually targeted it as a means to get small pocket money, but I later realized how the game was, so I retraced my steps. I cannot gamble with a huge amount, especially the money I want to use for some important stuff. 

Some people make the decision to start gambling but don't have an escape plan when things get hot, and that's why it's wise to only gamble with the amount they can afford to lose.

Our psychological state is always there whether we are gambling or doing any other particular activity especially when that activity is involving money or something precious. You can differ between a person who is controlling himself and psychologically doing well, and the second person who can’t control. The first person is going to be successful and managing to achieve most of his goals and loving a decent life, while the second person is going to be unsuccessful and struggling with his goals.

Gambling is a very risky activity, when it comes to psychological control not many gamblers success in that. Some people are trying their best to avoid it to skip the effort of controlling whenever winning or losing.

Psychological control
Emotional control

This is something which it isnt really just that limited on gambling alone or itself but also in other things or aspects in life on which these things would really be that relevant or something that you would really be needing up to consider because on the moment that you have forgotten these things then you would really be ending up on some disastrous condition. This is why it would really be that relevant that you do have
such control because on the moment or time that you have that missed out on doing such basic stuff then expect thati t would really be that relevant that you do end up on having that kind of
possible bad conditions in speaking about on the things that you are really that dealing on with.

If this one would really be applied in gambling then it would really be something that needs up to consider if you dont like to have that messed up condition
on which we do know that when it comes to this aspect then it would really be something crucial or mainly needs to consider out such stuff.

because of course the biggest possibility that can trigger someone's psychological problems is when they lose a fairly large amount of money or an amount that exceeds their limits if we talk about gambling, nothing else.

Some people purposely put themselves in such psychological trauma that they can become so depressed and traumatized by the situation they put themselves in. I don't know if you read about the old topic where the man gambled with the money that was meant to be used for his wedding.

Lot of people go into gambling without any concern about the psychological part of it which has to do with them. That is why some people will lose self control and become addicted, some people will take loan and spend it all on gambling without any other source of repayment. Most people see gambling as a means  of getting more income  but anyone that must take such decision should be aware of what gambling can do. It's not a get rich quick scheme, as a matter of fact, it can even make someone become poor in just a little time.

Actually it all depends on what and what their perspective is towards gambling, if basically they start everything on the right path in the sense of being aware of the impacts and risks then I think they will be able to think of various things or actions that can keep their psychology in check. because of course the biggest possibility that can trigger someone's psychological problems is when they lose a fairly large amount of money or an amount that exceeds their limits if we talk about gambling, nothing else.

But on the other hand, if they come without any understanding and only know that gambling can give them money then it is clear that they will experience various pressures and tensions in their gambling activities which can also disturb them mentally and psychologically, the meaning of which is that it depends on how they understand gambling because that understanding will later make them know what the best goals are to bring to the gambling activity.

Self control is really important on gambling since if we just play cool then didn't bother to think other thinks like taking precaution on everything what we do then provably that we are heading in something that put us on danger. Emotion is mortal enemy of the gamblers so they must know how to deal with something especially their expectation so that they will stick into reality then don't hope for any unrealistic matters towards their gambling activities.

What people need to know for theirselves is that if they can't afford to lose don't gamble since if they push their selves because they think there's easy money to get from gambling since this is what they see from people online then maybe they should think twice and verify those information they get for legit sources to avoid getting slap by reality that gambling is serious matter and there's no easy way to get money here.
That's why we must learn more about self control so we can prevents losing the control when playing gambling. We must to calm down our emotion in any result that we gets from gambling so we don't lose our minds and can enjoy the gambling. Managing the emotion in gambling is not easy as that will effect with any results that we gets but if we stay calm ourselves, we will not have an increasing of the emotion. We will see what we must do in gambling and we will quit gambling when we don't see any excitement anymore.

If they can't afford to lose, they don't have to playing gambling and stay away from gambling. They will finds themselves lose their controls and that can effects to lose the money. That's why when you playing gambling, you must have control so you can calm down your minds and your psychology will not gets the bad effects. It's about how you can enjoy the gambling games and will not gets the bad effects from gambling so you will not gets any problem in gambling.

Or just self discipline.
I cannot say it is not about winning or losong because greed and regrets will only originate from these two outcomes and it would be self discipline that will put end to those mentioned emotions. But yes, I agree with setting limits to both outcomes. It will always be the mindset of the player; if you lose accept that it is not your day and when you didn't secure a win, learn from it and do the opposite next time. Part of us being rational creatures is learning from realizations, so make sure to utilize it. It is notmal to be frustrated sometimes, to have the urge or desiring for more, but if it will be continuous then that is the time it would be a problem that needs to be aided appropriately. You also have to have the will to make possible changes with what you are doing.

Of course, because the biggest benefit of setting limits on our approach to gambling habits is that it will make us avoid regret and greed when you are in a winning situation, in the sense that you will be able to make truly wise decisions when you are disciplined towards the limits that have been set. you make.

When a gambler is truly able to follow all the limits they have set then of course when they win it will not be too difficult for them to decide to cash out the winning amount, and when they lose they will not be too sorry because the amount of the budget they bet is not too big. large because of the restrictions they have previously implemented.

Indeed, psychological control is good for people who cares for their finances and value money above all. There's always an exception for all of this when it comes to gambling, but for me this is always about a mindset of winning and losing, there's nothing else. People's expectation doesn't change because most often times they'll be subjected to promotional ads and other mind blowing winning experiences of random person particular with different social media posts.
Gambling nowadays is more transparent at main stream media, the information is getting easier and the access is more wider in every comfort zone of each potential customers.

You shouldn't forget risk addiction. Most gambling addicts betting high amounts, are doing it  because they are addicts of the risk feeling actually. It's a very dangerous addiction, way more dangerous than a simple gambling addiction. And in my opinion, authorities and some organizations are frightening people by talking about this risk addiction while it doesn't concern all gambling addicts, but just a small part of them. Most gambling addicts won't finish ruined, they will lose and win and finally on the overall they will lose not really more than the house edge of the games they've played at the end.

Underestimate- nothing
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.


If anyone can control their self with gambling then they have solve half of their problems, that is the first step to be able to aviod been addicted because people will play and the same time they want to always want to win. And those that are addicted will always have something to justify them self that they only want to make money. Gambling is not bad but the fact that some people go to extreme, because if you hear some people's how they have lost a lot of money. So it is better to have serious self control so that we don't increase the chances of becoming addicted. Qnd what some people don't understand is that they don't need to gamble everyday to win. Gambling is something you do everytime. It is better to get a job than use gambling than wanting to use gambling as a source of income. Since your winning is not assured  it is better to use your money for something else before you use everything to gamble.

That is why gambling should not be abused, but should be used extremely rarely as entertainment. Any activity that turns into a routine spoils the psyche. Gambling should be entertainment, but any normal person will agree that entertainment, which occurs quite often, is simply harmful to health. Therefore, on those days when you have an amount of money that you are ready to spend merely, feel free to go either shopping or to a casino or restaurant. But when playing, do not go beyond the money with which you sit down to play. It’s better to win, stop, and buy something useful for yourself than to lose everything under the pressure of greed, even the amount you came with. If there is no understanding of your control, it is possible, in order not to undergo treatment for depression, not to start gambling at all.
Many gamblers' expectation are like that - they only use gambling as entertainment, but in practice it is different. Most people turn into addict - some become compulsive, some even have to receive treatment and rehabilitation due to increasingly severe addiction. Advice is certainly easier than practice - but advice is still advice that in time will be useful to someone or several people.

To prevent compulsive addiction, every gambler must be aware of his financial capacity and capabilities. They must be responsible gamblers and not gamble beyond their financial mean. At least this is advice that I always think about and say to anyone who gambles - this is also valuable for me personally.

.

Actually that only happens when there is a pre-established ambition or expectation from the person to be able to profit out their gambling sessions, the most responsible gamblers will not experiment that kind of reaction when  comes to losing, because they do the right thing and view those deposits as lost money at the exact moment the decide to send it to the casino, that could be translated that money is actually not necessary for them to continue their daily routine and so on.
What you just described sounds rather like the reaction a newbie in the world of gambling would have in their first sessions, in which they do not know the pros and cons of gambling.

Don't get me wrong, any human being would be dispair and they would feel dread when they start to see their money going away and losing it to the casino for mere bad luck, but the tricks comes with the mental control of not allowing those feelings to turn I to action and start chasing losses, when the sadness and dread appears, then it is better just to log out and take a break from gambling, until one feels better.

Win or lose --most gamblers still lost control of their emotions.
When a gambler wins, they gamble more thinking of making more money. When the gamblers lose, they still gamble in the chase of their money. Both of they has a psychological effect on us and we tend to control it but sadly, we can't because what is on our mind is making money, not of having fun and pleasure.

What we feed into our minds has a significant impact on our decision-making and actions.
How to do this - psychological control? No other than but started manipulating our minds into thinking that we are gambling for fun, not for money. Otherwise, we give a reason why it goes this way --losing control.

It's difficult to manipulate our minds but it can be done. I agree, win or lose we will lose control at some point especially when we are on the losing streak.
As a gambler for a long time and always looking at myself whenever I lose so that I will have a clear mind before I deposit again, this is something that is not easy to control. We tend to be eaten by revenge or the chase for our losses because we want that money back so badly. There was even a time I told myself that RTP would kick in and it would give me back everything but it's very rare to happen.
Imagine leaving everything to RTP, that's one bad decision a gambler would make. There are lucky times when I got it all back but still the wound it will leave being stressed at those moments is not easy to forget.
