Topic: Gambling should be play with care - page 21. (Read 5657 times)

Making mistakes is part of life, so losing a few times more money than what you thought it was possible for you when gambling will become a learning experience given enough time, however the issue comes when people are unable to learn quickly enough, as in this way they keep making the same mistake over and over again, to the point they could begin to develop an addiction and that is when things could get really ugly, as overcoming an addiction is something very difficult to do.

We are not greedy but while we are on gamble and earn some money or lose money then we become greedy as a result we cant get succeed and we become only losers. And I think gambling site started their business based on our greed.

Not all gamblers become addicted, but only those who have a psychological predisposition to it, or those who do not have willpower, but such people also have a way out. If a person realizes that he can not cope with gambling addiction on his own can turn to professionals who will help him.

I gamble most of my life and I can not say that this hobby negatively affects me or my family. Yes, I have lost large sums of money, but we all know that bad experiences make us see our mistakes, realize them and become better.

Well sometimes you can't control your emotions and you really have to think very hard when you start gambling because once you are in, it's very hard to get out of it. And also, if you have been addicted to gambling and really wake up one day to wanted to quit then maybe that's they right now to stop your addiction before it's too late. And with that, we admire those who really learn how to quit early. But for some of us here, maybe they are still in the height of this addiction so it's very hard for them. And there should really be like life lesson first, before the understand what gambling will do to them if they don't quit right now.

Gambling need a lot of care and if we are not that careful, we might end up going broke at the same time trying hard to make money from gambling. The need for us to plan things well whenever we gamble to make the process easier for us. There are people that had been in the gambling industry for long but still don't have anything to write about because of there continues loses over a certain period of time. This is why some persons will keep becoming addicted to gambling because they want to make profits from the market by force.

Yes, but they still gamble even though they are aware of the risks that will occur if they play without good self-control and play without being careful. That is the consequence if they are addicted to gambling.
I agree, it would be good if we started gambling, we have a good plan, with this planning of course to minimize losses and minimize our gambling so that we don't get addicted.

Loosing  control is just pure greed nothing else people are always not satisfied and always wanting even without considering any other thing but all they care about is the money, its good to make money but not at the expense of allowing greed take over. And from that mentality of i will get lucky next time have drained a lot of pockets and if the variation of the lucks and the unlucky you will clearly see that the unlucky is more than the lucky, the mentality is a bad one. Clearly, I concur with your arguments. Before harm has been done and regrets follow, it is impossible to predict the effects of addiction.

One of the main differences and plus those common ones;

*Lose in an instant
*Recovery is unlikely
*Greed is more intense

Their similarities

*Involves risk
*Chance could mess up your finances
*Could potentially make you rich


But trying out to compare in between investment/career on an entertainment thing doesnt have no sense because we can already
picture out on what are the things that they do differ and what are their strengths and weaknesses. We arent that dumb enough
or naive ones which wont really be able to point out those things specially if we do experience it for ourselves.

Yes, maybe this can be equated with trading but for me it is a little different from gambling because trading loses it balance value gradually when the price falls but for gambling it loses the entire balance if we place our bet incorrectly, but still both must have patience and good thinking be careful when doing anything that is risky to avoid losing more.
For me, practicing patience or placing bets carefully doesn't require doing things that are too difficult to do because not everyone understands the method you mentioned because the best way for me is just knowing how the gambling business works.
With this understanding, I think a gambler will always be careful with every bet they want to make because they already know that gambling is only for fun, as I said before.

Once playing this "game of luck" gambling, the player will gradually lose control and become addicted to gambling. After each loss, they will have the mentality that they are unlucky and will be luckier the next time they play. Gradually get caught up in the addictive game without the player even knowing.
Gambling addiction leads to unpredictable consequences. Players should know how to control themselves, control their actions, and not let things go too far. Remember that this is just a place for entertainment, not a place to get rich.

Jumping  on this, I will say that the advice I got from all of this is to have a budget for gambling and not gamble only what we can afford to lose as money lost in gambling doesn't come back easily as there is nothing certain in gambling.
On the other hand,  I've  always known that it is very difficult  to have a budget for gambling especially  if one isn't a heavy or frequent gambler and I'm saying this precisely from my personal experience because I know that since I don't gamble frequently expect in some cases, what i do is just use any available money I'm willing to risk to place the bet at that very time.
I heard of a story of a boy who lost out of a sure game simply because he had a limit on his gambling amount for the day and this is a case of strict self discipline.

People who are addicted to gambling really knows what they are into but they can't just help themselves to stop because addiction is beyond control. Addiction can make you not to consider if you are doing things wrong, that is why it is very important for people to treat gambling with care because going into it without good planning can lead to addiction that will be so difficult to get rid of it. People can overcome addiction if they are concerned about not getting addicted and minimise gambling activities.

It is difficult to keep track of expenses,lost and won amounts because even the gamblers who start doing so after they hit a huge win they get way to enthusiastic about it that soon after they forget to update their expenses spreadsheet.These type of gamblers are very few nowadays and no matter how good you are at keeping track of lost/won amounts,creating a budget to stick to it and other related things no one can assure that he won't be caught in by the adrenaline of the emotions when you gamble especially in slot machines that they will overdo and spend much more than the allocated budget.These advises help of course people who want to achieve some sort of self control during gambling.

In the past one may be gambling with reckless abandon but right now, that would be a stupid thing to do.

Every gambler must who desires to be successful must be intentional about it. Their approach and attitude towards gambling should not be governed by spontaneity but by a well-thought out strategy which would include creating a budget, having an spreadsheet to record how much they spend on gambling and other healthy habits that would help protect the finances of the gambler.

That is why they really have to guard their boundaries and themselves by controlling them while gambling so that they will break them for their own good. It may be difficult because there will be temptations from gambling that will come to them but rest assured, they will not be affected with control and can even treat gambling as entertainment. Continuous practice will strengthen them to have good self-control so that they don't have to worry about the temptations that will come. They can handle it because they have learned much about self-control so temptation will not work for them. Reducing the budget from the start before starting to gamble can be done. Still, they must always stick to it and this is difficult to do because they must be able to restrain themselves from depositing more money, especially when they lose. But it is with self-control that they can handle it and will not want to deposit more money just to gamble.

We do that because we don't want to experience many losses. If we can keep this in mind, we will not encounter difficulties in gambling and of course, we will not gamble continuously. It is very important to have limits when playing gambling, especially since we are committed to protecting ourselves from losing a lot. We will only be lost by lust when we decide to increase our gambling budget and will not be able to stop at the right time. We may have to calculate how many wins we have had and compare it with the number of losses we have had so we can see how it goes. And at that time, we will definitely be surprised that our losses are still greater than the number of wins.

Well there are those who can be strict with the limits they have set until the end of the game and there are also those who are just like nonsense, at the beginning they are so strict on themselves but when they have experienced conditions like that, which means that some temptations have come then maybe they will violate everything they have previously prepared. In my opinion, most of them always violate it on average, that's why there are so many now who are getting worse in gambling. I understand the temptation there is very strong and rarely can you let go or not be tempted at all, therefore in my opinion one solution that you can use is to reduce your gambling budget from the start, so even if you end up still losing it's just a small part that you are ready to lose, and with a small budget maybe you won't be too hurt by whatever happens to your money. Yes you say that for those who are able to overcome all the temptations out there, but we should also try to find solutions that can help to minimize the losses.


Yes you have chosen the right decision by not increasing your budget there at all, obviously it is not the right decision if you try to increase your capital, as I said above it will only add to your problems. If you try and lose, you're not going to accept that and I'm sure you'll spend everything you've got just to get revenge there. In my opinion there is nothing to gain even if for example you can get a win by increasing your budget, because the point is that it is very likely that your lust and greed will get higher, and when you want to gamble again, you will definitely continue to increase the amount of your budget because you think that small wins are like nothing, well that's what friends are afraid of. Therefore, it is best to limit everything, especially your budget there. 

Yes Gambling should be played with care because it can have a significant impact on an individual it is essential to approach gambling in a responsible manner so as to avoid gambling related harm, responsible gamblers understand that gambling remains a positive form of entertainment because it helps to create a safer and enjoyable atmosphere for gambling including the gamblers and these around them .

Yes, if they talk like that in the beginning, maybe they won't be able to do it and it will look like bullshit. But I think there are gamblers who can do it because they care about their money and themselves. They don't want to experience bad events like other people have experienced, so they always try to stay within their limits and will not try to break them because it could have fatal consequences for them. They will not even try to borrow from friends if they do not have money to gamble because they realize that returning the money will make it difficult to pay it back, especially if they do not have a steady income that can provide them with money.

I also never try to increase my budget for gambling anymore because I have experienced incidents where it was not the right decision because I ended up suffering many losses. And I never imagined that before so after that bad incident, I tried to really set a budget for gambling and never went over it. Increasing the amount of the budget can make someone lustful and increase greed, especially if, at that time, we can get a lot of wins, which will tempt us to continue the game. So it's better if we just gamble in moderation.

Self-control will reduce the number of defeats we will experience so that we will not exceed the limits of what we can afford. We also will not follow our ego by continuing gambling just because we want more profits. We just want to gamble for fun so we won't get into trouble.

Casinos work for business and we just want to have fun where we don't need to chase wins because we won't always be lucky. We can only try to play and use the free time we have. Who knows, we might be lucky enough to win. If we gamble to win, it will be difficult for us so we don't have to try hard to get it. We will only lose if we try hard.

Practicing self-control is important because it lets us know when to stop and feel like we have had enough of gambling. Playing with gamblers' psychology allows casinos to gain profits from gamblers and if gamblers are influenced, gamblers will continue gambling and will not remember their time and money. They just want to gamble and maybe chase a win so that it will keep them coming back time and time again.

What is clear is to minimize all existing risk percentages because no matter how careful we are we still often experience unwanted things when gambling and from this it can be concluded that no one can truly avoid risk if being unlucky.
Caution is included in efforts or actions to minimize risk and that is the only thing every gambler can do to minimize the chance of failure.

Even though there are several methods that are said or suggested by many people in fact they do not provide guarantees and one of the most effective efforts in my opinion is just to make more considerations and use money within reasonable limits so that when problems occur we don't experience disappointment or the loss is too great.
