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

Yes that's right, everyone has their own experiences in whatever they have done and maybe in gambling involvement where everyone has different experiences, as you said that someone is very likely to gamble in the wrong place and time such as at work or when they are doing other activities that are more important in life than just gambling and this can also happen when you enter or get involved in irresponsible casinos that can make you disappointed like some cases where the winnings of gamblers are not paid by the casino which in the end usually their accounts are frozen.

If we talk about gambling at the wrong time and place such as gambling when you are doing other activities then I think it is purely your own fault for not being able to divide time for each activity, But if we talk about gambling in the wrong casino which in the sense of an irresponsible casino that ultimately makes us disappointed due to some problems that occur then I think I can't fully blame the gambler because obviously the error is like 50 - 50 between the gambler and the casino itself where the casino is indeed irresponsible and from the start they already have bad intentions to make gamblers disappointed because they don't process payments from their winnings, but events like this can also be used as a lesson which as you said that we must be more careful and try to gamble in a casino that has a good reputation and is trusted.

What you say is correct, because indeed the odds or percentage of winning that are set for gambling have already been determined, for newcomers or gamblers, they only have a small percentage of being able to win at gambling while the percentage of losing is bigger, so from the number of gambles carried out it is certain ended in defeat. and if they can't accept this then addiction will become the problem. However, with those who gamble wisely, including with their minds, they will not mind the losses that occur because they already know that this is something that is certain to happen in gambling, so they accept it well, without any resentment, wanting to gamble again to chase wins or recover losses.

When their thinking is not clear then it is clear that greed will arise in them and it will be a problem for them, whether it is financial loss or their health. What is clear is that when they are addicted, they can dare to do things that take big risks when they don't have any more money to gamble. driven by addiction, they can carry out actions that are detrimental to other people, such as stealing or robbing, and maybe borrowing, but sometimes gamblers who borrow money will not pay it back even though they already have the money, they think about gambling again to make it double, just keep going like this. That's because their thoughts only think about winning.

It's ironic to see people who are still at school opening gambling sites. It's better to finish school first and focus on the lessons given by the teacher.
After everything is finished, it doesn't matter if he wants to gamble because that is his decision and hopefully he won't be depressed because he is addicted to online gambling. By the way, how is the condition now? Does he still like doing online gambling or not?

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.

It is very possible for us to have the experience of betting in the wrong place and also at the wrong time.
Maybe the story is not like yours, but gamblers who gamble at work or during other important activities can disturb concentration because the gambling result can be said to do it at the wrong time, and also gamblers who are deceived by casinos so can't withdraw the winnings, it can be said to be gambling in the wrong place because we are not careful and are too tempted by bonus offers or also playing at a casino that we don't check the term and conditions anymore, it turns out that our area is on the list where playing is prohibited, so our account is frozen and we can't withdraw our money, so it is very important to be careful in choosing a casino to play at.

Gamblers are more likely to never win, if they can accept this they won't gamble almost all the time and they will not always expect to win, which in return is better for them, they will not be addicted to gambling.

I believe that only a small amount of gamblers are really enjoying their games even though they are not winning, many people still have their mind on winning some money.

Greed is the biggest enemy to self in gambling, since its obviously not easy to be lucky in gambling I still don't know why some people go extra miles because of gambling, they say that mistakes brings back knowledge if you learn from it, but in gambling your mistakes doesn't improve you in anyway than learning to stay within your capacity.

I will never be against gambling but I will never support relying too much on gambling like it can really turn your life around, if one becomes a millionaire today, hundreds of people have lost their money in gambling, the fairness isn't cutting it for me.

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.

I think the most important thing of all is that from a young age you became aware of what you were doing and that took you to another level, to a higher level of learning, as something that should not be done, I consider that those things are 'to give you an example' like those things that should never be done, and the good thing is that you gave it as an example that despite being a child you rectified it, and since you rectified that behavior as a child, I am sure that you are a good man who contributes to the world , so that's what it's about, sometimes unfortunately one learns more from mistakes than from any experience, so it's good that you bring it to the forum, because I know that there are people who have that thing about stealing, some due to illness, but it is something very bad seen, and in general here in the forum that is repudiated, but wow it was crazy.

That happens to everyone, if you bet on red on the roulette then black comes next, if you bet black then red appears, and if you bet both then the zero or the double zero appears, so I do not think this is just a matter of the casino cheating you, this is just the way gambling works from time to time, still if this were to happen a lot to you then it is possible that you could make a crazy bet to try to recover the money you have lost during the session, so you need to do what you can to prevent this from happening to you.

         -    The only thing I remember is that when I bet on the hi and lo dice, when I stay on the lo, it doesn't come out, and when I bet on high, it comes out on the lo. Does that seem like the game provider can read what I'm doing and where I am going or betting?

until I really thought that the house edge was in control; it's also their decision if they want you to win with your gambling, until I feel very annoyed at the end. Where emotionally I got control my anger to this matter.

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.

This is normal in Highschool mtime mate , like yours we have different way to gamble but indeed we always lose classes and even money just to gamble and enjoy lol.
and betting in wrong time and wrong place? of course i am mate because many of chance that I lose money and skip my meal just to gamble.

What a story! I am glad that you are now an adult and you can be smarter when you are parenting your children. It will be easier since nothing children can do now that we've not probably done during our time. Though we are not proud of most, nevertheless, the experience is there, and in my case, it made me wiser and smarter. We all have our stories, and for mine, mostly, it is my friends that did those rubbish things, I could only be informed of some and fully aware of the others in most cases, but I do not follow suit. I always have this conscience then, so I try as much as possible to stay away from trouble, especially those things that are only worthy to be done by adults.

However, the thing I knew I did worst was when I was an adult and it was my sole decision. It wasted so much money even as I lied to my parents to collect huge amounts of money to achieve it, but it never affected my academics, and that was trading. Mehn, I wasted enough money in trading to the point that when I flashback, I regret my action. Nevertheless, it is now a mixed feeling because I have made way more in trading now. And if I did not follow that dangerous path then, I would not be calling trading as one of my income sources today. For this, mine is still positively impactful.

No parents will allow their kids to indulge in gambling. I was exposed to gambling very early in life because of the kind of friends I had then. I started it as fun and soon it became part of me and I was gambling the wrong way and wrong time. I started lying to my parents just so I could get money to gamble. This affected my academic performance and soon my parents started asking questions to know the reason for the decline in my academic performance and so the teachers and my elder brother began to monitor my activities in school. This made me stop because I can't stand the anger of my parents.

What I am saying in essence is that most of our behaviour will be frowned upon by our parents but as a child, we keep it hidden from parents and until the activity starts bringing negativity into our lives they will not know. my advice is that parents should always make an effort to monitor the activities of their children whether at home, school or any other place to be sure that their child is not lured into gambling so early in life.

We usually do this on our school gymnasium during our P.E(Physical Education) when we have sports subject that time. We usually made bet against other section that has same subject with us on same period.

My teacher doesn’t have any idea that the class matches between 2 section has a money bet on it that’s why the game is too physical even though it’s just an exhibition match just for fun. I’m facilitating the bet that’s why I almost got kick out in the school after my teacher found out. Luckily I manage to escape punishment by tricking my teacher that the money involved is not that huge and we use it to purchased class project for him. All involved still received a disciplinary action but not a severe punishment such as kick out from school.

Just imagine with me how it's tough when you growing up in deadly society with poor conditions where everyone don't care about you no one, you can answer your self brother , thank you.

I haven't experienced this kind of situation where I need to skip classes to place a bet with my friends. This is the only thing I always try to avoid to at least make myself be responsible when it comes to my studies. I don't think I would be able to finish college if I did this kind of activity while studying.

The only thing I can experience is every time my relatives gather, we often gamble together, and our favorite game is the lucky 9 and in-between. That's the only thing I consider a crazy bet as we gather to have a vacation together and gamble at the same time.

If it is just a little misbehavior to gamble, then i have and a lot of people have to, i even missed classes to play football and others did for different reasons too, as long as it didn't become a habit, neither did it make you lose focus in life, then i can say it is good to learn from such mistakes. I have not done anything too crazy to gamble and i don't recommend anyone to do so, you may fast turn into an addict if you continue doing crazy things just to gamble.

Am I the only one having a different interpretation of the part I bolded? Like what do you mean by selling cigarettes at that age? Well, I know we all did some naughty stuffs during our childhood days but this got me curious. I remember skipping school several times just to play around and end up receiving beating but funny enough, I will still repeat it again and again. One of the crazy things I have done just to bet was trekking 5km far to place my bet in one of the offline shops. On a normal day, I won't trek that distance even if I am been offer money to do it but behold, I did it for gambling. What hurt me more is when I discovered the ticket got bursted even before I return back to house. I slept until evening time to regain my senses. Those childhood experiences were very crazy and funny but glad we learned and realized our mistakes. At least, we can tell when our kids are making same mistakes and caution them in time.
