Many gamblers you see today, started from their childhood to gamble, some games we played then, we thought it to be for fun without even knowing we were actually gambling. But when we started growing up to a certain age, then we realized our selves and either made it official or sneak to gamble. And at some point we even made stupid decision all in the name of making extra money for ourselves. But the most important thing is how you handle that behavior. gambling from childhood is either you become irresponsible gambler or you be a professional by knowing when to quit.

I agree with you. Most of us have been gambling since childhood. We didn't even know it was gambling then. I remember when I was a kid playing games like football, cricket or badminton we used to bet. A very large amount means we don't bet. Because we didn't have enough money then. Our reason for betting was to increase our interest in the match. And to make the match more exciting. But now times have changed. We now place bets on various matches through various online betting sites.

I don't remember doing anything crazy enough to bet. Because I'm not addicted to it. But once I bet my personal mobile phone. But it was limited to our friend group. I did it just for fun.

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Interesting question. I think betting or gambling does not choose any specific places like casinos exclusively. I mean we can bet in the sports bar, inside anyone's house, in the streets, and anywhere as long as there is something to place a bet on. So, I don't think there is a wrong place to gamble.
Gambling inside the campus is huge offense I guess? It could lead to an immediate dismissal (that's at least to most of the Catholic or Christian schols). Luckily, you and your friends had avoided such headaches to the parents. Well, that's some good experience in betting I can say simply because you weren't caught lol.
I have said this quite several times, but me and my friends had bet on how many cars passes by in one hour. The closest number gets the W.

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?
I can't recall any of that part, I'm the kind of guy to do what needs to be done when it needs to be done then and there so I don't think that I've even done it before. I also don't like mixing the activities and tasks that I do in one place, makes my work a bit sloppy and I end up getting frustrated when my focus is not on the things that I need to do, that's why I can't recall the time that I've ever done that kind of thing, it's a good lesson too because sharing this might help other people realize that there's times that you shouldn't be doing what you're currently doing and that you're focused on the wrong things, who knows, you might help people that would've otherwise still be doing this kind of thing.

Though many people have been involved in this kind of thing but one thing is sure those days you weren't in control of what you did considering your age and am very happy that you condemned the act, I have a friend those days that involve in the same act but his own has worsen now because he couldn't stop gambling, he graduated from middle school gambling to a pure addict, op you were lucky that you were able to get out of this, many addicted gamblers started just as you narrated it, gambling at a young age is very disastrous because at this age you are unable to control your actions, this may sound strange to many of us that weren't involve in this kind of stuff but I must tell you getting out of this behaviour isn't easy.

Hi community,

I remember when I was in middle school, we used to play cards almost every day, and our stupidity reached the point where we would skip classes while we were inside school. The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card. So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected  from selling cigarettes.
Of course, this is not something I am proud of and I do not recommend it to everyone, but it's just childhood memories .

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Oh, those childhood tales really do stick Grin
It's funny how those notsoproud moments end up being the ones we remember and chuckle about later on. I can't say I've been in quite the adventurous situations you described, but I think, we've all had our share of "what were we thinking?" moments. It’s all part of growing up and finding our way.

Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

I also have the same experience and yet not good practice but truly an awesome core memory. I won't be calling it wrong place at the wrong time either because every time I look back on the same experience that I have, I've got smile on my face and not shame. It's just me enjoying hanging out with my buddies in a train station, and random people would just interestingly join our game. Now every time I ride train, that experience will always make me smile and think of good old days.

That's also probably I'm still somehow play cards online, to entertain myself, and hopefully have the same excitement that I've had before.

Unfortunately, many people gamble with the hope that the gambling they do will give them a win that could change their lives drastically. like where they gamble with small capital and hope for a miracle to happen which can make them get a big win and then that win really helps them in many ways, especially helping them with their finances. Unfortunately, this hope actually puts them in problems, such as gambling addiction, which only drains their finances.
I agree with you, indeed in gambling self-control is very important to be able to avoid big losses, such as chasing losses or chasing wins, many gamblers gamble excessively so that it becomes a problem for themselves. The problem that occurs is because they don't have good self-control so they gamble excessively.

I can not see any significant changes in the control of gambling. When anyone locks his/her account by self-control option that means the person will not be able to play on this site for a specific time or permanently but who controls the user from creating an account on another site? I think when any person gets addicted then the person won't be able to control himself/herself from playing by the method of self control.

It is a fatal mistake if they consider gambling as a job, because there is no clear profit that can be obtained, only losses or loss of money that is clear and certain to occur. and it is very hypocritical if people gamble but their aim is not to win or make money, even though there are some gamblers who gamble with the motive of having fun but I think they also want to win, it's just that they can control themselves well so they have good motives. can cover its main purpose.
In reality, what makes them disappointed is losing or losing the money they bet on. It's a shame that they can't accept defeat which is certain to happen because their attitude like that will only make their emotions and feelings rise and maybe they will lose self-control and gamble more aggressively, such as risking all the money they have or selling some of their property. he has to gamble again with the aim of getting more money from the losses that have occurred.
No employment, just a bet. Smart deals have guarantees; gambling doesnt. No pay, healthcare, or retirement. You cant succeed in business by chance. Casinos strive to win, not donate. Hopes and dreams cant make you rich.

Even while some say its for the thrill, everyone wants to win big. Ambition is fine, just like in politics. However, planning and self-control matter. Those who gamble must know the odds, respect their limits, and quit when necessary. Management-understanding risk and the worth of your hard-earned money—is the actual difficulty, not beating the house.

It was a dark time at school. And I've done it too. I warned in advance this cannot be an example and it is not a good thing to do. I used my pocket money to gamble at school. Several times I missed classes that I didn't like just to gamble. I gamble on games like chess and cards. Of course it's hard to bring poker to school so we use paper that we draw on. I even understand the game of chess because I want to win at gambling. It was a bad experience and not to be imitated.
I was lucky because I realized my mistake when I graduated from school. I think if I continue my gambling hobby then I will get addicted and believe me it will not be good for your life.

Yes indeed this is a bad thing to do even if we have money we shouldn't do something crazy such as risking money with a large amount of money, we must be able to see the side of the loss that is definitely happening. Leaving the activities that we should do for the sake of gambling in my opinion is a bad action, because you should not also defend gambling desperately. Gambling with when you have free time, don't let gambling disturb your other activities that might be more important than gambling.

Gambling can indeed be addictive, many young people who live messy because they are too excessive when doing gambling, they are addicted to gambling, while gambling addictive is not a good thing, because by being addicted to gambling we will experience continuous gambling that can make We lose a lot of money. Because the victory in the gambling cannot be obtained easily, most likely what will be obtained is only a defeat that makes us lose some money and if we are addicted, the gambling that cannot be stopped with other meanings is the same as our money that will be drained a lot by doing gambling endlessly.

We all have our past and as our memories have that some of us use it as stepping stone for the future while others live in that same faith and does not making any good movement for their future .
we also have our gambling style when we were younger and yeah youngsters are creative to have their gambling ways hidden infront of their parents and teachers ,.

Yeah, it's a risky business.

Some few lucky people might win the jackpot, but the vast majority of people will end up paying for that, and way more actually.

That's how casinos make their massive amounts of money. By having gamblers pouring all their life savings into them.

Mmm, I think that's why some people think of gambling as a job.

They are there because they want the money. Some gamblers genuinely don't enjoy their time there. They only want to make the money and go.

The reality of course is different, and most actually end up losing money.

So, as I said, it's better to have some fun while at it at least.

There’s little point in indulging in the activity if you don’t get some form of entertainment from it. You’re more likely to lose money than to win some so there’s little point if you’re playing just for the money. Perhaps having constant hopes of winning some big money someday keeps people going.

I wasn’t one to skip school then to go gamble and I haven’t really done anything crazy in order to place bets; There wasn’t any reason to.

It never works for greedy people (just like me before). Maybe I was wrong or just said some people have the same experience as me; the moment I think about winning, ain't happen but losing. That is why I'd never thought about it since then.
Indeed, these casinos always win because they know that gamblers always lose control of their emotions which gives them no chance of winning. Gambling responsibly is always a reminder to us from casinos but unfortunately, only a few gamblers got into it because of the wrong mindset. 
One of the things you will notice if you stop to think about them is that the biggest losses you have ever suffered always come preceded by losing control over your emotions, and this is not a coincidence, as long as you can remain in control of your emotions then your losses can be kept down, but as soon as this is not the case and you begin to make some wild bets, it is just a matter of time until luck is not on your side anymore and you lose all of that money relatively quickly.

It's true that the biggest losses always start with losing control of your emotions which in turn always makes someone do some actions that they can't afford to be responsible for such as risking large amounts because they want to get a big win or want to reach the recovery phase, and if we talk about losing control of emotions then surely the context is that you are unable to accept defeat in the past which in turn emotions and makes decisions based on desperation and feelings of resentment.

The purpose of controlling emotions and expectations is not to increase the chances of winning but it is useful to minimize the number of losses that certainly no one wants, and previously I have often said on several other pages that it is not a real victory if you basically have not made a decision to cash out, which means that the greed aspect can still control you in the winning situation which if you really fail to manage greed then yes obviously wild betting will definitely be done by you which is usually as you said above that it is a matter of time and luck, which usually gamblers return to lose their winning money because luck does not last long because they are unable to ignore greed.

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?
It was the time of reading but you spent that time betting which is very bad whether you made any profit or not. I don't think any students should do this. It was too crazy based on the time as well as the location selected by you for gambling.
I've actually done something crazy to bet but mine wasn't related to educational studies rather, it was about in business. Years ago I was a trader who was introduced to gambling by a friend and because I was fortunate enough to win big in my first day of gambling, I thought I was always going to win but little did I know that gambling doesn't work that way. What actually happened was I went to the place I usually go to trade and on reaching there, I wanted to use the nearest rest room and ease myself but on my way to the rest room, I saw a gambling shop and went in to gamble because I thought I was going to win big as well but unfortunately for me, I lost everything I had and even went as far as borrowing to gamble and before i could get back to my trading place, it was already a closing time and I had to go back home with my goods

Almost every person who has gambled once in their life must have experimented with that, having dreams and building skyscrapers in the air while thinking about gambling and how they can win a lot of money from it that will change their life. However, it mustn't have taken a lot of time before they realize that it is not possible and they are not going to see any success coming in their lives through gambling.

You get this realization when you get together a budget for your gambling activities and you aim to make a lot of money with that budget. You plan everything, how much you will earn each day and how you would stop after a certain point, you might even see your plan working for the first few days, but then, everything seems to fall apart and you eventually lose everything to the house.

Yeah, I think that is part of what the casinos want to create.

A reality in which you as a gambler can generate money by just being smart and gambling on the right bets at the right time.

No one else knows how to do it, but you are special Smiley
