Topic: Has this ever happened to you as a gambler? - page 6. (Read 1879 times)

This situation is absurd, but one thing is clear to me: we cannot put the things that we have now and for which we have earned and saved. If you start pawning such things, they will give you a very small part of the actual value. Because whoever offers something like this clearly sees that the player can easily give away such things and take advantage of the player’s plight. Of course, any self-respecting person will not do this, but under the influence of greed or addiction this can happen, I have heard about this more than once. And there are no decent gestures here anymore, there is even a joke that in this way you can lose your last pants.

Generally we don't like to be seen as a loser, we just want to get back what we lose and in gambling it's not really possible in that way so one more lose then we lose entirely. They are ignoring the basics of betting which shows the are ready to do anything just to achieve the results which can be due to greediness or addiction according to the situations.

When I play I also look to win, there is nothing wrong with that, the thing is that you should not lose your way, if you lose in the casino you have to accept that that is the only safest thing that can happen, in the casinos We must see that some movies are worthy of pure luck, if we do not try luck we lose, unless we are in a sports bet that already influences the knowledge of the player, but in casinos playing with roulettes, with crash that is pure luck, There is no other option, for me that will always be what we should do, be very lucky to achieve things.

Those who lose a lot of money are because they will not control themselves and Emotions are something that can lead us to do things wrong, lose money and the least we should try is to lose money, but quite the opposite to win it, that's why controlling emotions It's super Important.

Addiction and Expectation is the cause of such situation, not really greed, they gamble putting there expectations in line so they play with all hopes. That's the reason why gambling with your huge expectations is bad, you believe and trust that such game will be a win, before you know it you risk more than your initial plan.  

Moderation and Discipline should be encouraged, if neglected the end result is always disastrous, so the proper orientation newbies have the better and responsible gamblers will emerge.

Initial excitement with gambling can be a real trap for new players. New exciting experience for newbies can get them caught up in the wins and lose sight of the bigger picture. Beginners are more susceptible to addiction because of the initial thrill. The lack of understanding about the odds or the potential consequences could make them ignoring their affordable limits.

Being new in gambling makes them have bigger desire to win that can cloud judgment. They might not realize they're developing a problem until it's too late. They might not even notice the warning signs of addiction creeping in. The sooner someone stops gambling, the easier it is to avoid addiction. They need an early intervention, It's a tough situation, but recognizing it's a trap is the first step.

The point is that gambling must always be done based on common sense, a rational attitude and maintaining awareness, everything will most likely remain fine if for example we are able to manage and control gambling or whatever activity we do, and of course you have thoughts. a good one where you always message or remind other people, especially your friends, about the bad phase of addiction in gambling, where everyone has the same chance of ending up in that situation. Because on the other hand, gambling can be very entertaining and can also be very exciting and there are quite a few gamblers who end up getting carried away because of the many things that look tempting or tempting so that in the end they fall into it and gamble on the following path in the wrong way, all of that is very possible to happen when you start not being able to maintain consciousness while you are running a session and I think all gamblers have the same chance of experiencing this. Therefore, we are always advised to exercise full caution and vigilance and always maintain a level of awareness so that we are not easily trapped and carried away by the current.

Addiction of course, on the time that you are already addicted to gambling then you would really be potentially be able to make those kind of acts which is really that obviously getting in line with addiction. We do know on where this one would really be ended up and we do know on where it would really be that going into which settlement could neither be solved out or not
because once that an addicted person will really be able to experience tough situations then this is where they would really be having that kind of realizations on the wrong things that they have done.
We do know on where these things do really start and on where it would really be ending up. The main thing that you should really be avoiding in the first place on the time that you do gamble
is not to make yourself that addicted. Once you do find yourself having that kind of problem then it would really be that hard to get out.

Most likely in situations as this it's just have to be gambling addiction either playing out or gradually setting in and the gambler is yet to get into full blown addiction and it's the best time to get them help because beyond that stage it becomes even more difficult to ever render help to them because they now have too many triggers and at every slightest chance that triggers them they get to return back to their old habit.

It's very easier for newbies to get addicted because some of them stay excited for the longest of times and are definitely going to get into addiction before the get to realize it. All that which you did mentioned as been associated with gambling addiction is most definitely not far from the truth but the problem has always still been around the fact that people will still allow greed set in and not get to the point they will be able to understand that they could possibly prevent such from happening to them if only they can quit gambling early enough before they turn addicts.

Most gamblers have gone through this situations that is been caused by gambling but quitting has been their biggest challenge and it's almost always looking  like they can't quit because they are already too addicted to the game and they just continue bro adjust regardless of the pains and stress they go through gambling and that has been the biggest challenge to most gamblers even the experienced gamblers.

Unfortunately, this is how it works. A casino is a place that shows the essence of a person like a mirror, and everyone can learn a lot of new and unpleasant things about themselves. That's why I always remember about addiction and advise my friends not to get too carried away. But at the same time, those who are weak in character easily become addicted and at the same time pervert even more. Become thieves. I'm not saying that this happens to everyone, but unfortunately it happens, and we all know many such cases. And every such case of problematic addiction is a broken family. After all, everyone has a wife, mother, and brothers.

As long as we still like gambling and placing bets, there is always the possibility that we could get addicted. And although the final outcome of gambling is full of uncertainty and unreliability, because gambling is full of surprises, many people are willing to spend their money, leave their jobs and also ignore their obligations in order to find these surprises and make a profit. However, because the final result of gambling is very difficult to predict with certainty and we never know when luck will strike. Many people without realizing it have experienced many losses and become addicted just because they are waiting for luck that never comes. They have lost a lot of money due to the gambling they do and the bets they place, and if they decide to stop these activities, then the losses they experienced previously will never be replaced, so they continue their gambling activities even if they have to take out loans or sell goods. personal items, because who knows, in the next gambling and betting session, victory and luck will be on his side.

The issue of gamblers starts the moment they believe they can make money from it. It may still be limited in risk in that sense if the gambler is wise to have approached it carefully, but the moment the gambler allows desperation towards the earning of money through gambling, then the main issue starts. This is why you would see gamblers losing and do not know it is the right time to quit or take a break for fresh breath to be taken. Gambling should never be done in desperation, this will only bring in emotion, and when the gambler is emotional, anything could happen. This can now be aggravated depending on the kind of mind the gambler has. If the gambler is such that has a weak mind, then anything can happen. I've seen a gambler who needed to bet just $25 in the whole gambling session but ended up wasting $1115.

This is simply because such a gambler allows emotion to rule him. He must have thought that his luck was in the next game, but before he knew it, more losses were just piling, and his eyes must have cleared when he had lost that huge amount of money with either no more money to wager anymore or a friend/concerned people near to him cautioned him before he got his mind back. This is how gambling could be so devastating if we are not careful.

This is more reason why we should be disciplined as gamblers, as it's what can help us preserve our sanity towards it. We should have those calculations, budget and management, and also have viable plans that we should never deviate from no matter the situation on the betting floor.

While I agree with the most of the things you say and also about the importance of one having control over one's finances and budget to gamble. This does not exactly has much to do with the story which was shared to us by OP, as far as I understood what he said, he was talking about how someone in a betting shop decided to use their smartphone as some kind of warranty or collateral, since the person in questions did not have the cash to pay for the wager he wanted to place.
It is basically about using one one does not have to continue betting. I have seen situations like that one in movies and series, when one of the main characters runs out of money and starts to use his clothing, rings and other valuables as collateral to continue to play poker against his friends.
Though, I have not witnessed anything like it in real life before.

I don’t know if this is obtainable anymore because before a gambler leaves the house , he has budgets of the amount of money he is going out to spend .placing bet above my budget has never happened to me maybe probably because I book the game online and go the betting shop to just print it out and in my time of gambling I have never seen or heard such .But in most case if the person is addicted to visual games then this scenario can actually occur because most of the Time gamblers are addicts and they don’t stop until they end up owing the betting shop and this might result to collecting any of their gadgets or shoes just to recover their money back .
But it is every embarrassing that people will step out of their house to gamble only to spend more than their budgets, and end up owing a shop ,this occurs as a result of lack of emotional control and the quest to recover the previous lost amount .

I have lost several times in gambling large sums of money about the spending of which then very sorry.  I think that this happens to every gambler at least once in a lifetime and I believe that all the blame for the excitement, greed and inability to control their finances. It seems to me that at such a moment gambler is so seized by excitement that he poorly understands what is happening and what can lead to spending all the money. After I started to limit my gambling budget this problem stopped bothering me. Now I lose small amounts of money that have a minor impact on my financial situation.

Well, for me, it's difficult to state for certain what was going on in this situation. However, I believe it is crucial to acknowledge that this type of circumstance is not unusual. Gambling addiction is a very real and severe disease, with terrible implications for individuals who suffer from it. One of the most important things to know about gambling addiction is that it involves more than simply money. Gambling addiction is frequently associated with depression, anxiety, and relationship troubles. It is critical to get assistance if you or someone you love is battling with gambling addiction. There are several services accessible, and there's no shame in contacting for help. Also we should also be cautious of greediness, as it may lead to highly damaging behaviour if we are not vigilant and endeavour to prevent.

Gambling is a game of chance and is at best a type of entertainment. But the false image of gambling inside the brain of many common people is that it can be used to make loads of money. This is similar to stereotypes and hence needs to be broken and the reality put in front of these people.

However it is tough to stop such people when they addicted over time even if they might actually realize that they are having losses more than they win, it is too late.

They will deposit more and more and lose more, eventually ending up in debt and putting their entire family at risk. But this can be prevented very early.

That's not a good idea if someone playing gambling until he lost all of his money without calculate how much money he can used. He can gets deeper in gambling. He will thinks that gambling is the only activity that he can do. He must changes his minds and not thinks about gambling as a source of income because that can makes them losing much money. A gambler can becomes greedy or addicted to gambling when he playing gambling for a long time and don't thinks about stop gambling for some time.

That's why gamblers must controls himself while playing gambling and prevents him not to playing gambling for a long time. A gambler must learned about self-control and other things to prevents many problems that can occurs because in gambling, someone can changes his habit and behaviors and else when he can't stop himself from playing gambling.

Even if all of those are huge factors that make someone to move towards addiction, most likely the very first mistake they commit are the false expectations they have out of gambling.

For example, when it comes to myself, the only thing I expect out of gambling is to have some fun with it, I do not really have any big plans of making a huge amount of money with it as I know it is not possible, however I am sure that many of those that became addicted had a very different attitude, and deep down what they wanted to achieve while gambling was to obtain some fast profits, and when this did not happened, that is when they began their downward spiral towards addiction.

The inability to accept the fact of losing and greed is always a trigger for someone to end up in a cycle of addiction, the inability to accept the fact of possible risks makes a gambler trapped in many actions that are driven by their own emotions and also dissatisfaction about the amount of winnings that are generated can also make them apply greed and all this happens because they gamble with the aim of earning which is actually instead of earning but in fact they suffer a number of losses that can be even much bigger when they are unable to realize their mistakes to stop the action that is not recommended.

That's right, that when someone has entered the addiction cycle then they will find it difficult to ignore the time and money at all not to gamble, it all happens because they put hope in winning so that every time they only think of ways to gamble with the aim of realizing what is in their minds such as big wins, and also when they don't have a budget to gamble then usually what I see is that they make loans as an alternative to financing their gambling activities, but actually that is not an alternative but an action that will cause new problems such as getting into debt.

I agree with what you say, because depositing a lot of money is not the solution, when you play in the casino and you don't win, the player must always evaluate his options, that of winning and if he is not successful, then at least you could have fun spending a different time that should be enough, casinos with their house advantage guarantee their own winnings and that is something you must accept and know, you cannot think that when depositing a lot of money in the casino, the casino has to respond with a big win for the player, that is not correct and is one of the things that many newbies think.

I do not recommend playing in a casino with a lot of money, but with the money that you can afford to lose, because when you lose a lot of money the first thing that happens almost instinctively is to recover it, and that is a difficult task for gamblers who take it as revenge, they can achieve the goal of recovering that money, because it is among the options that can happen, but if that does not happen, it can be a direct path to addiction, so these types of acts should be avoided at all costs by a player, which is why When it comes to spending money to play you have to accept that loss, and in the casino losing is not a reason for shame, it is the most normal thing in the world.
