I really don't like gambling what I can't afford to loose. Sometimes when one Gamble's big money and looses, the person tends to increase his stake and the cycle continues.
Greed is what has affected so many today in gambling. Once a gambler is greedy, that is the first step in not being able to control the impulse of trying to recover, and as this keeps going on, it starts draining their emotions, getting control of the way they think and then they end up chasing what they obviously will not be able to get.

The best way to ever gamble is to accept that you can lose a lot in gambling which is why it is better to not gamble what one cannot afford to lose like you said. Also, it is best to see that cash you are playing with as something you are paying to have some fun, just like when you want to go to the movies but here, you can just be lucky to win something big and if you do not, accept it and walk away.

The necessary thing to do if you have lost a lot of money is to stop immediately and probably start another day. I think you would know the things that you would do if you have knowledge and experience. I think you shouldn't keep on gambling especially if you are always losing. Avoid trying to gamble if you do not have a lot of money to spare and never use somebody else's money.

You should never gamble funds that you didn't plan to, because it will always get yourself into a situation where you lose funds you couldn't afford to.

As you just said, you can win/lose funds you earn in a month.
If you are betting funds that is equal to your monthly salary, I would stop gambling at all.
You should gamble for entertainment, if you bet your whole monthly salary and lose, you won't have money for living and it is very dangerous situation.
Always be responsible at gambling.


Couldn't agree more. It's really hard to earn money to just use it to entertain yourself by gambling. Maybe, it's good if you were just trying your luck and not using your monthly funds. If you really want to gamble you should save some money for it so that, if ever you loose or win your funds for the whole month won't be affected.

Whenever i want to distract my self from gambling i try to watch a new series , especially the ones that already have 3 or 4 seasons with a health 10 episodes per season one Cheesy . It's a great time killer and will keep my mind off from gambling or any other disturbing activities .
I also try to convince my self that the money i earn from the hard work i spend is enough for a decent live and that greediness can have unhealthy consequences .

for me actualy, if i lost at online casino for playing poker dice etc i just take arest for a while and ill deposit some more, nbut im not try to gain what i allready lost that kind of action ussualy make me lose than winning.

and if you feel that you are allready addict and try to stop gambling, i suggest you to do something you love like reading book or fishing,  you can try to blocking site you ussualy play too.

remember dont gamble more than you can afford to lose
Reading book or fishing can never help a gambling addict. Most times, it takes a huge strength to be able to break away from that impulse and trust me; those activities will never do it. Most times, it is best you rely on friends to help you out as much as you want to help yourself out.

Yes, you will have to find a lot of activities that would get you occupied but it is not something you can do alone as the impulse will just keep coming back. The most important thing is to learn how to control it from the start by accepting losses cause breaking lose into the addict world is hard to come out of it.

I disagree, getting busy and putting your mind off of gambling is good therapy. This is the usual therapy used by psychologists to help addicts of any vice. The tip is to keep the patient busy so that he doesn't think about the vice he is addicted to. Then there would come a day that he will never look for them. But, the problem with an addict, is that it would indeed take a great deal of strength to get out of the addiction and never get back in.
Strong control and discipline would really be needed on these kind of scenarios and you are right psychologist to advice this kind of thing which they should really focus into other things that would deflect the aims of playing gambling. If you are really serious on quitting gambling then you do really persevere on what you wanted and not only that if you do like to succeed better to avoid on those things that are even just related to gambling and dont really get tempted.

With gambling when one starts to expect profit and spend time it will surely end up in loss. I prefer making a profit with gambling, same time I spend only that I can afford to loss. This lets me go with right prediction and feel lucky if I win big and if I lose the same won't affect the living.
And the craziest thing about gambling is that if you are new, it does not show you the red light first but some all greens. More like a welcome party and makes you to get so relaxed. I am not sure if anyone has experienced this or I am just the one, but that shit is crazy. Then when you are so overwhelmed with your winnings, BAM! That is when it all starts which is why you see some people feeling gambling is an investment when they are new.

sometimes gambling make life easier just spend 1 hours in front of my pc and i can get money same like i work for a month, sometimes i lost what i earn in a month with just a few click.
how you avoid loosing in online casino, if you lost your money what will you do ? deposit more and try to recover last lose or cry at the corner of your bathtub and regreting thing you do.

And if you become addictive to gambling and try to stop what you do to distact you from gambling ( i really need advice for this one)

You cant avoid loosing in gambling, it is the riskiest method in earning money offline or online, much better to avoid gambling if you do not want to loose your money just focus your self in other things, invest your money in trading than gambling, trading is also risky method but it is big possibility to make money by just doing regular trade in altcoin.

Most of the time I found myself depositing more that just crying on the bathtub.  Grin
If I the thought of losing never get out of me the whole day then that is the time my hands will go back to my computer just to try again and get it back.
I guess you can call that revenge but not addiction yet.
If you do deposit again after you lose that 2nd round then you can call yourself a gambling addict. That is a problem now.

These are a lot of questions. By the way, you are right to say that gambling can sometimes make your life much easier, but in the case of winning. There is no way to avoid the lose in casino mate, because it's all depend on luck, so you should be lucky to avoid to lose. Personally, If i lose some money, I stop and thinking what i should to do next time.

Your questions really got me laughing. Gambling in the first place should not be seen as a way to make money but as a way to have fun which would help you to curb most of the scenario that you have painted in case you end up losing. I am happy you know sometimes you win and then you lose, it is a 1:1 thing.

If you win, take your funds and run away, if you lose as well, accept your loss and move on. You cannot avoid losing and it is part of the game, so if you cannot accept that, it is better not to even try gambling at all.
It's actually not a 1:1 thing in most gambling sites. Since there is house edge then there is always 49:50 or something like that. That means the chances of you winning and losing is not equal. There is a higher likelihood of a gambler losing than winning due to house edge. It may look small, but statistically speaking that is not a number you should look down upon. It's actually a huge difference if there was no house edge.

Winning and loosing are very relative things in gambling and you are never sure of what will happen with your bets , it's pretty risky and you are basically throwing money to the wind in most cases .
The luck needed to get that very infinite probability of making a huge win is absurd , and beside that you'll endure lot of stress and frustration through your gambling journey  .
Trying to recover your money won't help at all , it'll even make you drown in more losses and thus more regrets . Get rid of that destructive habit before it consumes you and just forget about the money you lost , call it a day and move on with your life while you still have one .
Honestly, pro and con of gambling totally depends on each individual and how they really place gambling in their life. The reason why some people have gotten so addictive to gambling today is because they allowed their emotions and the gambling impulse to take over them, which usually starts from trying to recover losses just as you have said.

It is a crazy world that requires being careful and for those who cannot accept that they can lose more than they can win in gambling should not even start cause everything about it will scream CONS!

Don't try to recover your lost because it might become worst for you, it's like joining never ending marathon that you will never reach the finish line, to avoid losing simply just stop gambling and think that no one become rich because of gambling not even your friend and relatives but instead their life become  miserable in which they almost lost everything including their family. To refrain from gambling you just make yourself busy all the times by trying to join some activities like sports and charismatics movement because once you become bored it will trigger your desire to gamble again.

Addiction to gambling can have many factors that causes it especially the desperate neediness to money , and of course the thrive for the roller coaster of emotions that hits the gambler whenever he's practicing his hobby . Unfortunately , if a person gets addicted to gambling , it won't be any easy for him to get rid of this habit and other consequences can follow if the person is financially desperate especially if he's hopelessly trying to win back what he lost . And even if they manage to get a jackpot , they won't really get back what they lost entirely .

So people need to know if they got any addiction symptoms to not fall for such a trap , and these symptoms are usually similar to any other kind of addictions .
They'll like to keep low key about their activity , will be thriving to gamble even if they don't have enough money to satisfy their basic needs , and of course they'll feel that they can't stop anymore . Having therapy isn't a bad idea in such cases since you'll get taken care by a pro who understands your problem , knows how to guide you through it and especially you won't be ashamed to reveal your secret for him .

To have therapy is good and can help, but the most important is the power inside yourself. First of all you need to want stop gambling, otherwise nothing will help you to finish the addiction. There are many people who had therapy and it wasn't sufficient, because their problem wasn't only on their mind, but on their souls too. If a person is a gambler addicted, there aren't pros and cons, there are only cons and they will cause only negative effects.

Never gamble too much, always gamble under your own control and be sure to limit the money and time to gamble. With that I'm sure you will not lose what you've got for a month in just a few clicks.  It all starts from limiting yourself.

- Gambling never makes life easier and it is not the way of getting rich or getting constant income monthly as paychecks.

- Other than self control nothing can limit your losses and you need to stop playing with real cash to avoid losses in gambling.

- If you try to get back your past losses by playing more you will end up losing all you have, crying at corner might relief you emotionally but it can't get you your money back. You need to move on without remembering your past losses, try to involve yourself in something innovative.
