Well, I can't tell if I able to resist to gamble since the bitcoin casino where I use to play is undeniably fun so it is hard for me to resist since it has a lot of games to play and a bunch of bonuses too but I think I can manage it sometimes, as a matter of fact, I never loss big amount because once I entirely use all of my balance I will stop playing. I think it is just a matter of discipline because if you can't control your emotion you could easily fall from it. I also never pursue what I've lost because as you chase it you'll only put yourself in a horrible situation.

Indeed. Playing gambling is undeniably fun but still we gamblers to be able to be a responsible one and to continuously enjoy playing gambling all over again must pay attention that we still need to resist the temptation of always playing the game because we must take into consideration the art of playing in proper moderation. I am also into the same crypto casino you were up to which is Vegas casino and I do agree it have lots of game varieties such as poker, slots, black jack and so much more to enjoy as well as their great deals of bonuses for doing deposits in terms of Bitcoin which gives me undeniably fun and convenient gaming experience in which I still do manage to resist to be able to play with proper moderation.

The feeling that you kept on winning makes you want more, makes you want to take risk. On the other hand the continous losing streak is so devastating but as they've said, don't bet something that you don't wanna lose. Sooo that losing streaks makes me think that nope I should not play, I should not bet anymore.
Actually the losing streak makes a person more greedy and they want to play more. They wins do make them play but the loss is an even bigger impetus. Nobody wants to lose you see, so it hits their ego and they go in for the next all-in bets. Resisting this is tough but possible if you are willing to. Remind yourself of the los if you win but for addicts its a tough thing to keep control of emotions so they will make this mistake.

If you lose 100% of your account and you can't access more funds from your wallet right that moment, it's very likely that you'll cool down before you get your hands on your wallet. Wink
In short, just chill and take relax when you get a loss in gambling. Relaxing in your mind and refreshing again will cool down your eagerness before you fulfill again your account and recover your loss. Then, right at that moment, you can feel the resistance of what you have a loss that you wanted to recover or else just move on and start with a new strategy.

What I'm doing with the stock exchange trading should apply here too.
Don't deposit more than what you're willing to lose and preferably make it hard to deposit more into your gambling account, for example by holding your coins in a hardware wallet which you'll put somewhere far from you like in the basement or your garage or something.

If you lose 100% of your account and you can't access more funds from your wallet right that moment, it's very likely that you'll cool down before you get your hands on your wallet. Wink

Have you been able to resist the addiction and not let gambling consume you?

Have you been able to control the urge to place that bet, spin that wheel or roll
that dice? For you to be able to go a length of time away from the adrenaline.

Would be interested to hear how people can control this.



simple things that I often do before deciding to play on a gambling site, first prepare how much capital I will spend, if my capital has run out while gambling because of losing, I will not add more capital to play. and vice versa, when I experience victory, I can target the benefits gained from gambling, if I benefit more from the capital I spend, immediately decide to stop playing to avoid greed that can cause many losses

To be honest, for me it is very hard to resist if you’re already addicted to gambling, ...
Don't allow yourself to be addicted in gambling so you will not face bigger problems.
Addicted gamblers cannot control themselves so they will not resist as their goal is just to play and play.

There are lots of people being addicted in gambling especially the young ones, we should know the risk and avoid that from happening.
Entertainment can only be felt if we are discipline and can control ourselves, and that's how it should be played.

The fact that many young people knowing what is gambling to be and trying to understand what is gambling, all they can understand that gambling is the way of winning huge amount of money, but, the risk? specially if their parent’s know they are playing gambling and spending their money is not a good thing to do.

We must just avoid for being addicted in gambling.

Have you been able to resist the addiction and not let gambling consume you?

Well, for someone like me who do not play gambling that much, yes. I am able to resist the urge to gamble. I think I am pretty much occupied by my chores at home, studies, and time with family and friends so it's somehow easy for me to say "no" or "wait" to gambling or any betting games. In other words, one can resist the urge if he draws his attention to different activities. I understand that it's kinda difficult for those who are hooked but if there's a will, there's a way. And who knows one might find himself more productive without gambling for a while.

You can say that in your situation.

I have a friend that is addicted to gambling for a long time and most of his friends, my mutual friends, that making him focus on other things might help but it doesn't. In fact, he lied to his friend that he is not gambling anymore but in his spare times, he still gambles. I told him that he is still gambling, his friend is not mad at him and they helped him by always asking him to go on a trip, on hiking and usually drinking. There is this one time that they even slept in their house which is really great.

They claim that it is fun because they can do nothing to control their addiction but to give in to it. They know for a fact that they are wasting their time and money but that gambler fallacy still runs wild in their minds. These people are mostly the ones who dont have a steady income because that is what makes people try their luck and gamble their earnings. Those who have a settled lifestyle prefer to stay away from it.

But there are genuine people who gamble once a while in a friendly match and do it for fun - these people are not like the daily addicts though.
It is a good assessment but the facts are far from the situation, you can see many prominent business personalities going bankrupt simply because of their gambling addiction, people who are broke does gamble thinking that they could recover everything in a split second which is the dumbest thought process to being with, i do gamble once in a while and not at all an addict nor i am doing it to make money.

To be honest, for me it is very hard to resist if you’re already addicted to gambling, for me there are very few times where I can resist not to gamble, I tried to divert my attention to something else but in the end still end up betting. It seems that something is saying I should bet on this and that maybe I’ll get lucky today and win, but now i’m really trying my best to resist it because I’ve lost quite a fortune already and the more I try to recover those losses the bigger it gets. I guess it just have to do with your determination of you really want to resist it or continue.

Gambling is so attractive way, where we could be addicted easily, if we not control ourself. However we should take step carefully then we could safe from addiction.
Because i see mostly gamblers now they have become addictive but before starting gambling they said, they will not addict of it, but time wise they have changed and now they have addiction of gambling.
So always use limited money in gambling, no need to use big capital and also we should control our greedy, it is not necessary that we always win in game.

Gotta agree with you being unable to resist gambling with VegasCasino. I was looking for some thrills to play and I was introduced into gambling by my friend and he introduced me to Vegas Casino to start up with. Being the beginner I am, I started learning how to play and earn money and thankfully, Vegas Casino had a few guides on how to start doing as such! Adding to the variety of games they have, it's quite difficult to stop my self from playing continuously almost every day! Off course, if you add the benefits they offer, you wouldn't have any reason to prevent yourself from playing it anyway so I went ahead and look at me now, Still here and playing games in it.

After a hundreds hours of gambling I found out that it's pretty hard to stop playing. Gambling becomes a strong addiction and has a negative impact on other aspects of life. I have tried to control myself over and over again and found out that the best way is to make a long pause to let your mind relax.

I think the best way for you is not just pausing but totally stopping for a while. You are getting addicted to it due to long hours of gambling. That is a bad thing. Quit while you are still in control. It would be harder to stop if you are full on addicted to gambling already.

I am afraid that he will difficult to stop for a while because he found out that playing gambling is fun and he continues to play. I think he will need to ask his friends or his family always to drag him to get out of the place. Or if he plays in his room, he needs to have a friend who can ask him to leave from his room so he can stop from playing gambling.
If we play gambling everyday it has became a habit and like some of us know it is very difficult to break bad habit.  I do strongly believe that many of those claims to be gambling for fun are seriously addicted to gambling and what makes it fun for them is coming back to play.

Those who play gambling often will find it almost impossible to quit it.  The gambling is addiction is very strong and even those people who are losing in gambling, they also do not want to leave gambling. It is the attraction in the game due to which nobody wants to leave it.
There is not much attraction in any game but the only thing that causes addiction is the thirst for making money by winning games. At the same tie there are gamblers who can control their selves and stop playing if they are making losses but they have also a limited amount that does not result in huge loss. For gamblers with no limit control and not much strategic in strategic games will be making losses.

Good thing I can still be able to resist on playing gambling despite of the fact that there are really bunch of games that I do play to keep me entertained. Well, basically I am not a typical type of gambler who is up into earning a lot of money through playing gambling because the main reason why I got into gambling is to explore and experience something new to me that I do not attain into the other online games I play. I still keep into mind that I need to control myself into playing and setting up my limits even I know that I am having so much fun into the bitcoin casino I am currently up to like you which is Vegas casino that is undeniably having lots of game varieties I do enjoy to play like poker, black jack, slots, and more and have their great deals of bonuses for doing my deposits in terms of Bitcoin. It is really the matter of discipline and self responsibility to control yourself into playing too much to avoid getting into the path of addiction because everything that is too much is truly bad. Playing gambling was really fun and entertaining but for it to be able to stay at the same way, every gambler must still learn to resist from the temptation because that is what a responsible gambler really does. Enjoying with proper moderation.

If you are addicted to gambling you could simply put your focus to some other things. Like reading in a book or either go out and smell some fresh air sometimes. The point is try to stay away from your gadgets sometimes so that you won't think of playing another round of poker or another 5 bets into a slot machine. Just make yourself busy.

Yes, i also have been able to resist myself from being getting addicted to gambling because i can manage and limit myself to play and bet too much in gambling, that is why even i play in a bitcoin casino like vegascasino.io i never encounter any greediness and addiction in playing gambling because i only gamble for fun and entertainment. Anyways,  I am also recently playing in a bitcoin casino that i have always played which it is very safe to play and it has a lot of casino games that you will enjoy like poker, baccarat, roulette, blackjack, and video slots. It also has a live bitcoin casino with live dealers that you will absolutely enjoy it.

This solution of yours will not last and not the very best solution for addiction. When you you stop for a while or pause your gambling activities will never help in the control of addiction rather will just suppress the addiction. Most of the causes of gambling addiction is, staying gambling for a longer time than it's recommended, so, ensure to limit your time spent on gambling platforms.
