Actually, there is no need to blame other people, in this case, because the one to blame is ourselves, why do we want to try the gambling game ourselves, because at first we try, after winning once, we will feel curious so we do it over and over again until we lose and lose everything.

Without a doubt the environment can shape the beliefs and actions of a person, so in the places where gambling is forbidden by the culture, religion or both, a person will grow up thinking it is wrong and doing what they can to avoid it, but at the places in which the opposite happens and gambling is encouraged as a way to increase the economy activity there, then a person will grow up thinking gambling is a good thing and that they should be free to enjoy it whenever they want.
Even though being a gambler myself, I think it should be avoided at any cost. It's not just about good or bad. People may start gamble as a medium for fun but as times passes, the motives becomes something else. The money the greed the addiction, consumes a gambler destroying everything. Cultural and religious practices are important when it comes to young people. Yes you are correct. It helps gives them to give them a clean direction, a purpose, one that is beneficial to them.In fact, even though gambling is prohibited in some countries, it is related to the applicable laws and jurisdiction. even if it is covered by a religious prohibition, it does not prevent someone from carrying out their desire to gamble. especially, in the internet era like today. with just a smartphone and the internet, someone can surf to find online casinos in various ways. especially, in several countries that adhere to strict religious teachings. in several other countries, gambling is legalized and has become a risky form of entertainment. this condition is used by the state or government to contribute to or improve the economy there. plus, provides employment opportunities. and in this era, it should be time for gambling to be separated from negative things and become part of modern entertainment.
@goxcraft, if gambling is not good for you. as you said you should be able to avoid it, especially as you say, no matter what. and in my opinion, the point you are making is the opposite of gambling in the past. In the past, we didn't have a broad understanding of gambling. So, the idea that we have in mind is nothing other than what you said. Gambling today is not a matter of greed, money, or even addiction. but rather entertainment in the midst of an increasingly modern era. with common sense, and intellectually we can think more rationally.
and the point of the theme content of the title of this thread, not as in our discussion in this post. OP asks "Have You At Any Point In Time Blame Who Taught Or Led You To Gambling?" I would answer, not at all. and why should we blame someone who taught us, after all we are the ones who are interested in this entertainment.

I always wonder why I don't have anyone in my life teaching me something, it's always like people sees me like a rare one, and they decide not to ever teach me anything even when they know that I am suffering, until one day I had to ask my father, and he told me that I am special, that whatever I try to get or learn will always work for me the way I want it, I never doubted my father and I just kept going harder.
No mentor, nothing, the first time I run a node I grab the hardware from a local church member who have no use to it then, but for me to gain the experience I got it done, it was same with mining Bitcoin and investing, I have always been the boss of myself.
The only tool I could consider to be a good teacher for me was using Google search engine, it was even how I found the forum too, as for gambling, no one introduce me to it, in fact no one introduce me to anything in crypto space and financial investments.

I don't blame anyone for being involved in gambling because it all came from my awareness by finding out for myself. After all, I was curious about the posts, and every person who gambles, whether it was introduced by a friend, can't blame that person because the decision is still in your hands to gamble or don't gamble, and blaming other people for introducing you to gambling won't change anything because you are already involved in gambling and the important thing is to control yourself so you don't get too involved in gambling.
When people don't want to take responsibility for their actions, they always blame someone. Matured gamblers are the ones who can endure losses and enjoy gains. This is why I am sceptical about introducing people to anything. I prefer to allow people to make choices so that they will have nobody to blame. As much as nobody coerced you to gamble with your money, you should take full responsibility and not blame anybody. Recently a relative was chasing her 18yrs son's friend from the house. She was shouting angrily that her son's friend was the person who introduced her son to gambling and now the boy stole his grandma's ATM and withdrew a large amount. This woman shouldn't blame anybody for her son's misbehaviour because her son has reached and even passed the statutory gambling age in my country. Every adult should be willing to take full responsibility for our actions.

Until one gambles and losses what is more valuable and intolerable to loose, one would either find loosing funds in the gambling as fun probability a cause of an inability to realize how much have lost if accumulated.
My gambling beginning history is that I have been going to the gambling field with a friend who doesn't have a gambling budget. So sometimes he runs out of fund and will ask me to borrow him some money which I sometimes do and at then he could bet and recover all that he has lost untill he will be emptied again because he has refused to hear me when I asks him let's walk away from the gambling boards since he has recovered his lost stakes.
But he will always ask me to give him little time so he can count atleast some bit profits.
I was hope to believe that if I was to be him there is no way I can get lost on the gambling board so I decided to try bet with some tolerable denomination as part-time of waiting for my friend to finish up so we can just go home. Then I began to develop interest in gambling til I began going to the gambling board all by myself.
At this point of time I don't know how to classify how I got into gambling on who to be blamed but one thing sure is that I only regret gambling at when lost but always feels that joy at my winning .

I was guilty of this when I was a teenager not on online casinos but in a popular game on Fiesta It is a color game using dice, I was introduced here by my childhood friend and I had a lot of losses with this game, I'm using my school allowance so every time I lose money I blame my childhood for leading me to this color game I do it in a fun way as if I'm just joking but deep inside I hate it whenever I lose. I struggled to fight the temptation but the excitement led me to play again and again.
How about have you at any time blamed the one that led you to gambling in your mind, or even told him face to face?

It's true, it's really hard to find good companies who are happy with your personal success and who will advise you wisely on the difficult moments. Not everyone find such good people on their way, but once you find, you have to care and cultivate this relationship the best you can, because it might be an unique opportunity in your life.Unfortunatelly, besides being so hard to find this kind of relationship, people who finally do end wasting this by being treacherous or careless with the friend or familiar who always lent a hand.
Regards gambling, sometimes a good friend or tutor is just trying to help by advising the person to stop, and instead of being thankful for the orientation, the gambler ends turning against the person for no reason at all.
After thinking about it, the best option is to learn individually to control every attitude, behavior and decision in gambling so that we can easily face all difficult situations.
That way we will not be dependent on other people.
Isn't it that when we experience something like that, it can actually be disappointing and maybe we experience an increase in emotions towards anyone, the worst impact is that we will lose our sense of trust in other people.
Usually they are someone who is also gambler, but they have had enough experience and have experienced the bitterness and sweetness of gambling so that they already know how gambling really works.
People like this will always give their best and will always provide the right advice and education when gambling.

Not really. I started playing slots with friends as a teenager, it's something we did together and I don't remember anyone specifically introducing me to it. We just watched other people play, some of us started to try it and we all tried it.
I guess I don't hold grudges because over time I got a good understanding of how gambling works and it hasn't given me any problems.
This mean that you don't blame anyone for the gambling you have done because you and your friends know about it yourself through other people's who play it and you and your friends try to access the gambling via their respective cellphones and you can learn about gambling yourself.I guess I don't hold grudges because over time I got a good understanding of how gambling works and it hasn't given me any problems.
I myself also don't blame anyone for the gambling that I do because it is my desire to get to know the type of games in casinos. Indeed, sometimes my friends tell me about bets that provide a chances of winning and I also bet on the game they say, but if it didn't works or I didn't make a profit. I don't blame my friend who told me about the bet because I did it with pleasure and we definitely know that everyone has different luck and gambling is a game that can be won because of luck.

But it is not easy to find people like that who can be trusted and have experience in gambling because not all gamblers who are also our colleagues are wise people.
It like you are gambling in an environment that is filled with people who like to gamble, but not necessarily one or two of them can be trusted and have wise attitude.
Moreover, when they actually exist, they don't necessarily want to help us in gambling to be able to control all aspects of gambling.
Nowadays there are quite lot of people around us who actually feel happy when we experience failure and they feel jealous if we succeed.
Trusted people are very difficult to find in this era.

In your case I risk saying it was good to lose on the first bet, so you didn't go ahead. Because if you had won and went further on the game, like your brother did, the fall would have been much more harmful later, once you had achieved a sweet profit, losing everything right after. Then you would feel much more tempted to chase losses, potentially accumulating more losses yet on the process. Maybe your father wouldn't let you do that too, so we never know.
What you have said is also true because when you experience your first defeat or bitter experience when you first enter gambling, you can be more careful with the fear of experiencing defeat again.This will work well in the future and can really help anyone who experiences it, but quite few gamblers who experience defeat on their first gamble try to recover and really can't accept the loss.
However, in my thinking I more inclined to say that whether winning or losing is the same and the impact, good or bad, depends on the gambler himself whether they have the right approach or not.

Between playing by yourself and partnered with a trusted person more experienced than you, I think the later is the best alternative, as he will prevent you from acting impulsively during the gambling session. That can save your life and your finances until you calm down yourself and start thinking rationaly once again.

I am of the opposite as I decided to stay away from gambling.
My father used to bring me and my brother to cockpit arenas to watch him fight various tournaments. Before the said fight, people would bet between the two (2) chickens, either "A" or "B" and the minimum bet was around $10 on our area. As you can see, my brother started with $20 and he ended up with $100; while I started with only $10 and lost the very first time I betted.
While I do understand that there were some moments when I still attempted to gamble and won a couple of times, I just cannot get myself to be addicted to a dangerous venture. Also, while others may be lucky, I just really consider myself as unlucky in these types of games which made me really decide to not to gamble.

More often than not we get to see people with various blame-game lifestyle wanting to transfer responsibility on someone else when they fully consented to gambling without any form of coercion. It is considered a childhood approach to living from my perspective.
Gamblers should be fully aware of the fact that gambling is 80% luck and 20% skills, no matter how skillful you are, it is not enough guarantee that you must win or constantly enjoy winning else the gambling world wouldn't even exist.
Don't blame no one when you loose in gambling and if you feel like that after your loss then it might be an indication that you are not yet supposed to be in the gambling space.
I very much agree with what you say, for me to be in the position of the person who told me or took me to a casino for the first time, I don't blame anything, I don't know if you have ever Been in your life other than in the field of gaming. They have shown you a dangerous activity, but you have had the power to know how to control the activity or simply to say that no, since I was very little I always went out and played soccer, in fact there is no better way than playing Soccer in the street , because You learn not to be afraid of anyone, not even adults, nor anyone in the way you play, in my case I always went out to play, but one day a couple of young people played with us, and they had the peculiarity of being very well dressed, with a lot of money, and they had the skill to ask if we wanted to have money like that at our age, obviously everyone said yes, but as they did, the business was simple, just carrying drugs from one place to Another , I remember very well the astonished faces of all of us, we were 8-9 years old, the kids who arrived were About 15 years old , but all of us told him no , thank you very much but no , so everything in this life is about Taking Decisions , and Knowing how to say no.
It may be that this decision leads us to success or failure, but even if they show us what is available, we must know how to choose. In the event that they take a person to a casino and that person becomes addicted, it is not the fault of the person who took it led him , it is the fault of the most person, because that person did not force him to play, he only led him and showed him another world, where you see a lot of money and it is possible to win, there is nothing wrong there, we must always have an attitude When faced with certain events that arise in life and if we make decisions , we have to face that decision and not blame others if things went badly for us , because it is our Own fault , so that is Applicable to the topic, to the casino and to life.
Choice is our responsibility alone. Blaming others? A shelter for the weak-minded. With open eyes and a clear mind, we must approach every event, including gambling. Why label gambling harmful? Not so! It entertains, tests skill and luck, and teaches probability and psychology. Daily, every decision is a gamble. The true gambler knows risk and reward in life's big casino, not sitting at a blackjack table. Acceptance is everything; criticize is for those who refuse to grow and learn.

At some point it occurred to me. I wasn't really knowledgeable about gambling way back and was just enticed to try because there have been so many good feedbacks from those who tried. But unfortunately, it didn't work out well for me. It became an expensive lesson learned. There were times before that I had regrets that I trusted someone's judgment, but of course I do know that I'm still the one responsible for my own decisions. Eventually, I accepted it and was able to move forward by thinking that money can be earned again, what's important is that I experienced, I learned, and I decided to do better in the future. No more resentment or any bad blood towards the person who introduced it to me.

I cannot blame anyone for showing me the way to Know how to gamble, rather i will be thankful to such a person because he wanted me to be happy in having fun through gambling and there's no bad or evil intention in that, atferall he never forced me against my wish, but after then, how have i been able to gamble responsibly, how was i able to make my decision on the kind of gambler i want to be, i can't blame someone else because of my personal attitude towards how i accept gambling.
We should be the ones responsible if we want to gamble, but in reality, many gamblers end up falling into gambling and maybe if they meet the person who introduced them to gambling, they will start to blame them. But actually, we are at fault for using gambling as a way to make money. We must remember that gambling is just a pleasure that requires money so we must really limit the money. And when we know that it is gambling, we should also be responsible for gambling or we can avoid gambling so that we don't get into trouble from gambling. December 02, 2023, 06:57:21 AM

No never, my grandfather was the one that introduced me to gambling and taught me about some of the casino games. I would never feel bad about his experienced he shared with me and all the stories he told me. I don't really see the point of feeling bad towards someone that introduced me to gambling, because in the end it's always my own decisions and I shouldn't search for blame after my own actions. Also, my grandfather has always been open towards me about the risks involved in gambling and that I should never use too much money at the casino, lottery or other gambling activities. I learned a lot from him and it was a strong bond we had for all the times he brought me along when he went card playing with his friends. All the issues I have with falling for short term temptation and not controlling my gambling habits is my own fault.

It seems a little crazy to be mad at the person who put you on to gambling. That’s a dangerous attitude to have where you blame others for your personal decisions. I think people would be much better off learning to accept responsibility for their own actions and taking the consequences without trying to find someone else to blame.
But sometimes there are people like that, when they lose they blame the people who used to invite them to get involved in gambling, or in short when they experience a lot of problems and downturns as a result of their uncontrolled gambling then they will blame the people who used to invite them whether it's their friends, relatives or even people who are less familiar with them. That may happen, and usually people like that initially the people who invite them do not explain in detail about what is actually in gambling.Or it means that the people who invite them only explain the chances of winning which are very tempting but on the other hand they do not explain that there are worse and greater risks that will certainly always be able to happen especially if they lack self-control and limits. Therefore, inviting someone to get involved in gambling is really an idea that is not recommended, none other than because later it will definitely be like this, or that means when defeat dominates the person you invite then maybe they will look for you and blame you, so it's better to gamble alone without involving others. And also on the other hand if there are people who invite you to do things that look very tempting then you should be suspicious about what is behind all that, we must be more careful.
