Topic: Gambling with a winning amount in mind - page 9. (Read 2995 times)
It's a funny idea to set a specific goal for winning at gambling. To me, it sounds like "the more, the better." But our expectations don't always match our capabilities. And the sooner we begin to understand this, the more intact the funds we didn't expect to play with will remain. It is necessary to bet real amounts and not exceed expenses if such goals are not achievable at some point.
Gambling with high expectations is not advisable the game is supposed to be for entertainment and not to get your hopes high on getting money to solve your problems. Anytime I gamble with the mindset of planning to use my wins for something it always ends up going sideways. You can never control the outcome all you have to do is gamble responsibly and don't think about an amount of money that is not in your possession
Almost any gambler playing gambling wants to win money, as only this brings positive emotions. In my opinion it is impossible to get dopamine or adrenaline if for your gambling session will not be at least one win. If everything was different everyone would play gambling in demo mode and do not spend money. Try to offer to play in demo mode to someone who says he gets pleasure from gambling. I'm sure he will refuse.
Most gamblers plan to win, betting until they win the bet. Many people do not stop their game even for a short time after winning the bet, but they continue it.
That's a foolish assumption from someone who believes that gambling will make them wealthy. It is very unfortunate, but I guess they have to experience it to realize that they are wrong. Quote
Basically in this regard I think because of the excessive greed of all these players they can't stop betting, instead they keep on gambling. And those who do so are certainly in danger, rather, they are sure to face harm in the future. Because we know that winning and losing in gambling should take a break from gambling for a period of time which would be the right decision for a gambler. Moreover, gamblers need to understand that if they cannot stop gambling, then they must face losses at some point.
Greed, temptation, etc.—it is all about the love of money, and this ends in no good but suffering losses. A true gambler enjoys their life gambling without the hope of winning, but those who aim to win have lost. That is how important it is for them to understand carefully the nature of gambling rather than getting fooled by those influences who say that they easily make money when it is just manipulated. hero member

Having a plan to win is normal but gamblers needs to realizes that is not easy and many times they will lose their money if they can not controls themselves. Many gamblers lose much money from gambling but that doesn't makes them stop their gambling activity because they still thinks that they can win for some money. If they can not realizes about controlling themselves in gambling, they will still losing their money without winning any money.If they can win from gambling and can stops their gambling activity, they can control themselves in gambling and holds their greedy not to becomes bigger. Winning for some amount in gambling is something that many gamblers waiting so they must appreciate it by stopping from playing gambling and takes the money. But if they want to win for some money from gambling, they must realizes that will not easy to happen because gambling will not allows them to win easily.

I agree with you. Gambling with the thought of winning and making it a goal is a big mistake in thinking. As you said we cannot control the amount of winnings. If someone has lost $100 and then thinks of targeting a win of $150 and stops, believe me you will not really be able to stop spinning your bets. You have to think that gambling will cost you money because it is part of having fun. The winnings you get will be used again in future bets. So stop thinking of earning money from gambling if you are a daily gambler.

A gambler with a winning amount in mind, gambles much more and can become easily addicted than a gambler just gambling for fun and without a particular winning amount in mind. In essence the thought process a gambler focuses on during any gambling activities will determine if such a gambler would gamble much more or lesser than normal and also, if such a gambler would become successful at their gambling endeavors.
Having an amount that you want to win in your mind will make you to gamble much more and that is true because it has happened to me before when I gambled because I wanted an amount of money to use for something very important to me that I have already used the money that was meant for that thing for something different. I lost all the capital I had because I did not know when to stop. You can deposit $100 and have in mind that you want to win $500 but you can lose everything despite making $300 profits but just because you want to complete it $500, you will continue to gamble and by then you have already been too involved that you can not stop gambling regardless of what is happening because all you want at the moment is to complete the amount in your mind.
I'm more comfortable gambling when I know what I'm aiming for, like the amount I'm anticipating to win before even putting my stakes on it. The specificity brings more mind relaxation to me and I can calculate myself properly with my stakes breathing in mind the outcomes.
Gambling with the goal of winning a specific amount in mind is an attractive idea for many, but in reality it is a false and unrealistic idea. Gambling is a game of probability, and there is no guarantee of winning a specific amount regardless of the size of the bet or any such a strategy to be followed.
Focusing on achieving a specific amount while gambling can easily lead to addiction behaviors, where the individual becomes driven by his urgent desire to recover possible losses or make more profits even if reaching that amount in mind.
It is always advisable to deal with gambling as a hobby, set a limit in advance on the spent amount (better to allocate a specific budget and not exceed it), and the most important one is not to try to recover losses.
with those like that tend to only become addicted as you said, the desire to win that is in them of course becomes a motivation for them to continue betting and betting, whether it ends in losing or winning but because of the desire to win they will continue to bet. doing gambling as a hobby in my opinion is also better not, I mean do gambling properly by not making it something that tends to be important or needed, like a hobby. because in my opinion a hobby is something that tends to be important and needed to be done.
I do think that gamblers who take gambling activities seriously have their motivation come from the amount they envision and hope to win, hence why they remain persistent in gambling instead of quitting after winning a little.

Once we start thinking in such ways and not paying attention to what we think and convictions in our bet then we are bound to lose if luck is not on our side. Sometimes we need to have good expectations, but we shouldn't let it cloud our reasoning and selection when we are gambling if not we may end up choosing the wrong picks and odds.
It is always advisable to deal with gambling as a hobby, set a limit in advance on the spent amount (better to allocate a specific budget and not exceed it), and the most important one is not to try to recover losses.
Is there any advantage to setting gambling as a hobby? Don't you think that may lead to addiction? For me, gambling should never be taken as a hobby because a hobby is addictive. Instead of setting gambling as a hobby, I think regarding it as a source of passive income is much better because that will mean the gambler has a way of settle his bills and surviving and is only using gambling for to get income that has no atom of desperation attached to it. This is exactly how to gamble without fear. 
What you mean, on a personal level I think it has happened to me too, and they are bets that one says that one cannot and should not lose, even so things happen for a reason, this reminds us that in the casinos we are people who can lose at any moment, and in fact it is only more Likely , that is how things work for casinos, we have to Start from the fact that they have their house advantage and apart from that they are a business, that is something that we can never change, in the case that we do not want to feel that way, then we should put less money in the bets.
Gamblers feel this reflexive thought over time. We all know the cons and pros of wagering high amounts, but it won't stop trusting our prediction unconditionally. Players could develop rational reasoning from the brain and individual experience. It's not enough to work with feelings alone. Combining feelings and experience will enable an easy understanding of how gambling works under probability.
Having the probability aspect in mind removes the surprise, mistakes, and frustration of losing. Accepting what we feel can push a player to wager a huge amount, and will end in a high rate of losses. Your advice of reducing the amount we wager is valid for all types of gamblers especially those who can't balance their thoughts and experiences.

There are some important bets we do have high expectations on and most time we end up losing the bets not dye to luck but the kind of the expectation and money that was involved could have made us to preferably lose some of these bets.

I don't think it's bad for a player to have a maximum winning limit, the problem is when that's your only criteria to stop playing.
Not maximum limit but a winning amount. Maximum limit is completely fine, the problem starts when you start gambling thinking how much you need to win to stop and the farther you are from that point the worse you are mentally and the more pressure you begin to feel. Gambling under pressure is always bad and it's very easy to overestimate your win chances by setting these win amounts.
For instance you want to double your money and will not stop until you do, but you get close to it at 190%, but that number in your mind will keep you going and risking it all for a very small additional win of 10%.

I do think that gamblers who take gambling activities seriously have their motivation come from the amount they envision and hope to win, hence why they remain persistent in gambling instead of quitting after winning a little.
What do you think about the fact that this envisioned amount of winnings can be greatly overstated, and the total amount of all envisioned amounts of gamblers who are serious about gambling is many times greater than the budget of the casino they play in?
A gambler with a winning amount in mind, gambles much more and can become easily addicted than a gambler just gambling for fun and without a particular winning amount in mind.
But it seems to me that the problem of gambling addiction has a different origin and is not connected with the imagined amount of winnings or the time spent gambling.In essence the thought process a gambler focuses on during any gambling activities will determine if such a gambler would gamble much more or lesser than normal and also, if such a gambler would become successful at their gambling endeavors.
Whether a gambler will play more or less will depend on the "thickness of his wallet" and luck (RTP). 
With what you have said, I might say that you are a gambler who has a correct understanding of what and how gambling really is, I can't say whether you are a gambler who comes to have fun or a gambler, the reason is because I don't see you mention any aspect of fun above but you only say about the approach you have which leads to an approach that is not excessive by only targeting realistic wins.
That's too much because I'm not someone who understands gambling too well, but I'm just someone who enjoys every gambling game well at every opportunity because gambling is not a field for me to find a source of income.
All aspects must be realistic, including gambling. There's no way I can force myself to reach the target if there are no opportunities and chances.
If I lose in the game, it's a sign that I shouldn't force myself to keep winning.
If we approach gambling with rational thinking, then I am sure that we will all say that gambling is not the right place to find a source of income, and placing realistic expectations must always be maintained, because gambling is full of temptations that can indirectly make a gambler fall unconsciously and continue to force himself to pursue victory, and avoiding various excessive actions must always be based on realistic thinking.

That's why I enjoy football betting more than others as everything feels natural and direct for me and I understand it better since I play too, so it feels like normal activity tho me .

But what happens when you, for example, reach your goal? Do you withdraw your money and never play again? And what if you lose? Do not stop until your goal is reached?
It seems to me that there can be no such goals in gambling (unless it is a jackpot), the most important thing is the average loss/profit. If you win on average, say, 50 dollars from each thousand you bet, then this is a success. If you lose, then no matter what goal you set for yourself, on average you will be at a loss. My idea is that the goal is not some specific amount, but to be a profitable player.

Agree with you, although the winning target may not be a large amount, but at least by calculating the winnings by adding it to the existing balance, at least it will be more interesting in making bets. But even though we have such a target, even though the results may also lose, at least it could be because we can feel pleasure in gambling, so even if we lose at least it doesn't frustrate us.
But indeed, when losing of course there will always be a sense of disappointment experienced but still,because we can enjoy betting at that moment then at least we will also remain fine. Because after all, basically we also only bet with money that is ready to lose. So yes,the point is interesting when we take into account the number of wins that become a certain target in a bet.
- We gamblers should have the habit that once we experience a win, we should stop and come back another day to play again. Twice or thrice winning should be the target to stop for a while in gambling.
The problem with others is that when they win, they feel like they will lose the house edge, which in fact will never happen, and it's still unclear as a blow to the moon. Greed shouldn't exist in such situations, that's all.
Greed is more influencing the person when they are in the winning streaks, thinking that they can continue winning, more gamblers unable to control their emotions as they wanted to keep rolling and keep gaining more, but when they start expreincing losses they got frustrated and more aggressive, it's going to tough especially when you already reached your target but you choose to play and lose after, where regret mostly the next thing that happened.
Difficulty in controlling emotions I think is a certainty and natural thing because defeat is not the desired result for gamblers who come with full intention to produce, maybe I would call them losers who always want to win but are not ready to lose, in the end the idea will only bring more significant regrets.
