Well said, Who wants to be addicted to gambling? of course no one, so if you start gambling, you should prepare yourself immediately, you should control yourself so that you don't develop gambling addiction. to avoid this, we must know our goal once we enter gambling, we must also know the consequences that can happen if we don't take care of the things that can destroy ourselves in terms of mental and financial aspects.Gambling is tricky, at first it will give you the winnings but when it lasts and it feels that you are enjoying the game, it will gradually take back all your winnings until you run out so you should know your limitations especially in your spending habits here.

Basically, no one wants to be addicted to gambling to destroy their life, whether financially or in terms of survival, but if they do gamble then whether they are addicted or not is up to them, including what they think about responding to gambling. If they think that gambling can make money and give them money or can make them rich in a short time then that is a mistake that can trigger them to become addicted to gambling.
However, if they gamble appropriately and with good thinking, such as gambling just for entertainment purposes, it is likely that they will not experience problems with their gambling, such as addiction or losing a lot of money in a short gambling session.

Yes, all gamblers will experience great depression if they lose and are unable to accept it, therefore both experienced gamblers and novice gamblers must have a strong sense of responsibility so that when they lose they are ready and able to accept it because we will definitely do it. take a risk. from gambling someday. And it is true what you said is that beginners should look at the experiences experienced by senior gamblers because that is also one step to prevent them from becoming addicted to gambling.


It is true that this often happens in aspects of our lives when someone who does not understand and learn new or unfamiliar things in their daily life will feel curious and want to try doing it and dare to take the risks that will occur. happens because it will be fine because if you haven't experienced it then you haven't been successful and satisfied, so this is what is in the minds of prospective gamblers who are addicted.

This applies to most aspects of our life as well, the ones that know the least about an activity are often the ones that take the most risks when practicing it, since they are unaware of the real risks they are taking, and only once they suffer important losses they will realize how mistaken they were to underestimate gambling, thinking they could easily make money with it, now some of those people can change their ways and become responsible gamblers, but there are others that will fail to do this and unfortunately they will begin their journey towards addiction.

It depends on the individual, because not all beginners have a lot of money to be able to gamble with a large amount of bets. but it's true what you said, beginners usually only capitalize on courage, and even that courage in my opinion is unintentional, so they gamble with a complete lack of understanding of gambling. but strangely, I often see why beginners usually get a win, I wonder if it's a trick of the casino or the host to make them believe in gambling or what.

It's not just beginners, I think all experienced gamblers or beginners will experience depression and stress if they can't control themselves so that it makes them lose a lot of money. a possible way to prevent beginners from getting addicted may be to give them examples of the bad effects that have happened a lot to gambling.

Because they are equipped with a lot of money, beginners appear more confident in all the gambling games they see, and they don't even hesitate to risk large amounts of money. even though in fact the beginner has not really studied all types of casino games so only with courage and a strong sense of self-confidence he is willing to enter the casino just to get the wins and pleasure he hopes for.
However, in the long term, if a beginner cannot control himself and find out or learn from experienced gamblers, then he will suffer more in his life and can also experience the risk of severe depression due to the large loss of money he experiences.

Indeed, one's effort to participate in gambling should always be appreciated. Gambling is primarily for entertainment. People who love entertainment and like to be entertained love to gamble but some people get addicted to this entertainment game. Those who find this game too easy and a means of earning money become more addicted. It completely destroys life. I would like to tell every new and old gambler that gambling should be used as entertainment, not as a means of making money and that a fixed budget of income should be used in gambling so that if it is lost there is no pain in oneself. A person will never become addicted to gambling if he does not develop a plan in his mind after losing.

Newbies are naive and curious to win, they're also equipped with lots of money. Thereby they gamble not minding whether it'll finish soon or not, soon the whole funds disappear, and they start all over again. Repeating the same process that finished their funds. Till they get frustrated and agitated whenever gambling. Such feelings are a result of the emptiness of the necessary gambling information needed to gamble responsibly. It's never a one-day thing, gambling newbies won't learn immediately. But putting them on the right track is quite crucial in building a serene gambling environment. With well experienced players in the future.

Yet getting this job done is mainly a personal thing, hence newbies are not opportune to find experts unlike during the days of offline casinos.

These days online gamblers, tutor themselves and utilize strategies from random streamers. Even reading up on online content on responsible gambling is not as effective as working alongside an experienced gambler who directs the newbie player on ways to manage time and money. Limitation is a smart move in countering the uncertainty in gambling. The Well-known slogan gambling gives profits, circulates fast more than any other gambling information. Any newbie has this information first before gambling. He'd need someone else to show him other useful terms in gambling to help correct his thoughts.

there's also the interesting fact that life is a mess, it's pure chaos, life is not like a lasagna, life is spaghetti.
it's really pretentious to think that our path will be the best for everyone
our path is the best for us but each person will find their way to live, it can be completely different than our way and that's ok.

Newbies just starting to be gambling make the same mistakes that other have made in the past and got ruined by gambling as they didn't learn from the mistake others before them that are gamblers have made. When a new gambler doesn't what to take the advice from gamblers that have the experience due to gambling many years before them, they'll also make the same mistakes and get addicted to gambling which will make them to be constantly losing money.

There's nothing wrong to learn from other individuals and make yourself to be protected from addiction. Helping newbies to not get addicted will depend on the newbies as not all newbies want to be taught, they think they can do everything on their own without the help of others. Some of them get successful but it takes them time as they keep making mistakes that they could have known about and avoided.

If we are talking about someone who has never gambled before, we can't do anything to stop them from trying, because we can't be with them 7/24 so if they do happen to come across gambling and want to give it a shot, they can go 40+ years in life without ever gambling and then give it a shot one day and become an addict eventually. We heard stories about people like that from all over the world, it is not a new thing and it will never be a new thing.

What we need to arrange however, would be something that could become a lot bigger, something that could take sometime, which is why we should be careful about it. If they do start, and they are just newbies at gambling, that's when we can get in and try to stop them from going any further.

That's right, to be precise, he still has an extraordinary curiosity about new things that come into his life, then he will enter slowly following the flow in his heart and mind, then if he feels comfortable then he will continue and that is a normal thing that happens to novice gambler.
Yes, if he cannot really understand real gambling then he will experience extraordinary greed and this must always be taken into account by novice gamblers because he may not yet be able to accept the impact of the risks of gambling.

Yes, we might be able to look at other people's experiences in gambling addiction as a lesson for us. but sometimes something that doesn't happen to us doesn't really matter to us. Honestly, no one wants to be ruined by a gambling addiction. We have seen many t-shirts but still sometimes we make the same mistakes that other people do.
There are more cases of those who finally realize that they are addicted after they experience their own losses. not from other people's experiences.

Depends on a certain person when it comes to approach on things because there are ones who are delusional and there are ones who are really that realistic and sensible in towards their actions
and there are ones who do live in a dream and assuming that they could really be able to make money without having any issues on which on the time that they would really be able to experience
the worst things then this is where they would really be making those kind of realizations on which we know that once they would really be able to lose money then it would really be something
that make them realize that it was never been ideal for them to have that kind of thinking towards it.

Getting addicted is something that likely that would really be happening on you on which on the time that you would really be making up yourself on having such condition. You would
really be eventually making yourself having that delusional approach which it would really be leading into disaster later on.

In my opinion, if it is to be used as a lesson, just looking at the many cases that have occurred is enough, don't think we have to feel big losses such as addiction losing a lot of money, or other bad effects, with the many cases that have occurred, it can be used as a lesson for us not to do the same thing as other people who have shared their bad experiences about gambling addiction or the bad effects of addiction. I also think it is ridiculous that beginners want to feel the bad effects of gambling in order to stay away from gambling or are not sure about the many cases that have occurred so they have the thought of wanting to feel the bad effects.
 It is not recommended to make gambling as a means of survival by earning income,  for beginners it is hoped that gambling can be done by setting limits, as you said with discipline in order to prevent excessive gambling.

I will tell you one of the reasons why parental advice has no effect at all, because don't most people or young people always hide their bad habits such as gambling or drug consumption? Sure, so what this means is that it is not that parental advice or family members are not helpful at all in overcoming this problem but it is that usually most parents do not know that their children are involved in bad habits which in turn makes young people who are involved in gambling or drug consumption even more involved.

So the reason why the population of gamblers and drug addicts is increasing is because most of the parents do not know about their children's bad habits. On the other hand, as we know that gambling and drugs have a bad point of view in the eyes of society and there is also a risk that when someone is caught having this habit, the authorities will usually arrest them so this is the reason why most people prefer to keep it a secret, especially from family members including their own parents.

Most beginners are scared and curious. They will ask advice on how to avoid the dangers but there are also who only care about the profit and they will ask strategies on how to maximize their potential.

Some experienced people can think they already figured out a way on how to beat the casino but many realized that it's not possible to do it, hopefully I'm the one belonging to them. Even though we can seek information from someone else, we will still need to apply them and along it will allow us to discover more things. Asking is not wrong as long as we are not picky and rush only on the good part but I understand that some are shy and prideful to go on their own.

Well said.
Everyone lives by there decisions consciously or subconsciously which feels there activity. So we can profer possible solutions and our past experience is left for the beginner to decide to implement   his guidelines to safeguard him and also learn from people experience.

The truth is them having control over there expectations, and accept the fact of uncertainty in gambling. Thus helping them discipline and gambling with Moderation, and not see gambling as means of survival.
Having total control over there gambling habits should be prioritize as this reduces Addiction.

If the advice and warnings of parents really helped, we would not see so much gambling among young people, nor would we see such high rates of crime and drug abuse in many countries around the world.
Advice and warnings don't work as well as we would like them to because people always try to break prohibitions and each of us gains wisdom only through our own experience, whether it is about gambling, drugs or anything else. 

I agree with you, we should also be able to become gamblers who are responsible for everything that happens from the actions that we purely do ourselves with the gambling we do. The purpose is clear as you said it is to avoid or prevent bad things that will happen as there have been many cases of the adverse effects of excessive or irresponsible gambling. It is true that the key to prevention lies with ourselves who must be able to set our own limits, but many gamblers they cannot set their limits and are not disciplined in gambling, so they often experience serious problems.
My advice for beginners, they should be able to see the bad impact cases that have happened a lot, with this thread it might help with all of us giving advice for them not to do excessive gambling. Allocating money that we can afford and are willing to lose is a must so that the gambling that is done can go well.
