Hello senior citizens and my fellow newbies gambler's, now I gat a straight forward question for you all.
How do I prepare myself for my first gambling experience?
What are the things I should expect as a first time gambler?
How do we react to my first gambling results be it winning or lose?
Thank you all for your helpful opinions.

Not a Senior Citizen but I reckon I could give you some valuable nuggets of knowledge you can use as a first time gambler.

1. Most of the preparation that you will have when you first gamble, is going to be mental and emotional in aspect. After all, losses are natural and honestly expected when you gamble. It's all about knowing how to control your urges to take the losses back and chasing wins that sets a stupid gambler from one who is more adept at what he does. You also need to prepare just enough money/bankroll when you gamble. Not preparing one is a big mistake as you won't notice just how much you're burning through your finances when you don't have a visual cue of how much you're spending when you gamble or lose.

2. Losses, that's the only thing you should expect.

3. I don't really care for how you react when you win or lose. You can be happy when you win or the saddest mofo on the planet when you lose but don't let these emotions control how you play your games. The moment you let the emotions get the better of you's the time you're bound for gambling addiction galore.

Hope these helped.

The first experience was a long time ago, when I was still young. Of course, I mean the time when I first tried to play for real money, and not free candy wrappers. It was roulette and I used the useless Martin Gale strategy. I myself came up with the idea of using it without even knowing what it was called and that it was known all over the world. I thought I was a genius lol. While playing, I think that now I will become rich, each time I managed to win a little. The excitement came to me with incredible force, this was the first time, I felt like the game simply swallowed me up in a matter of minutes. In general, I ended up losing everything that evening. I couldn’t fight this feeling that completely consumed me, but my brain became clear and I realized that excessive self-confidence leads to sad results. This later helped me with the games I started playing, because I knew how much you can be blinded by passion.

It is so easy to carry out, for a gambler who doesn't take gambler personally and doesn't put much hope on it, that "It's okay if they win or lose also" in gambling, no much deal.
One of the biggest mistakes a gambler can make is to bet everything in the hopes of winning big. It will now force them to gamble with money they cannot afford to lose.

Well, nobody can really give you exact advice. Nobody can give the best advice on how you will react to your losses and winnings; you should know yourself. But if you are looking for advice on gambling itself, on what to do and what not to do, That kind of advice is what you really need. First, you should know what your limits are when gambling. For example, you should set a minimum amount of money that you are okay to lose so that if you lose, it is fine for you. Also, you should set a goal; don't be too greedy when gambling, either winning or losing. People tend to get greedy because they let their emotions overcome their minds.

If you are a beginner, then let yourself explore gambling. You will learn from your experience, and you will eventually get used to it. Also, remember that there's beginner's luck; you might win some when you start gambling.

I tend to disagree on those points on which we know that gambling could really trigger out that kind of greed within you on which we know that on the time that you do get involved with gambling then the call for making money or simply being greedy would normally comes out and this why it would be best on having that strong self control.

You would really be doing tons of shit decision on the time that you would be giving prioritization when it comes to money.
Gambling should really be fun and not something to be stressful because this is where most people do end up.

Greed is an innate human attitude and nothing can really suppress greed when the person has an attitude that is not easily controlled, all gamblers have control over what happens but they cannot maintain it under certain conditions.
Gamblers will continue to make mistakes from time to time in each gambling session and they will not learn or think that it is wrong and must be changed or eliminated, gamblers will only see and imagine what it would be like to win bigger so that ambition and greed blind their own minds.
Don't we already know that many gamblers are like this and of course this is common disease experienced by most gamblers without exception, even professional gamblers have experienced the same thing.

However, with this awareness and mindset must emerge that we must be able to restrain or protect ourselves so that in the future we no longer make mistakes that might result in big losses or complicated problems.
Bitter experiences are very disappointing and truly cannot be forgotten, but we must take the positive side of every bitter experience that occurs by learning and trying to change everything for the better.

now I gat a straight forward question for you all.

My first gambling experience was not very good because I lost on the first day of gambling. I started my gambling in the legal online casino in our country where I register on an app and bet there regularly.But I have bet on various sports there sometimes winning and sometimes losing but more losses than gains after getting myself addicted to betting.

The more people gamble, the more they become addicted to it. Gambling makes people greedy.I have come across many online casino sites where beginners are given profits at the initial stage which leads to beginners becoming greedy and gambling regularly.But when newbies get greedy and gamble with huge amounts of money, they lose.

Your experience is very common among novice gamblers because they bet carelessly and don't have much skill so they continue to experience more losses than wins, even long-standing and experienced gamblers also experience more losses than profits, so basically we shouldn't expect something that is uncertain because gambling is just a game of chance where the profits are not known for certain and if you are a beginner and continue to experience losses, don't ever chase those losses because you will most likely only experience bigger losses.

Not everyone who gambles is like that because there are also senior gamblers who are experienced but remain responsible when gambling so they don't become addicted, but for beginner gamblers they really need to be given guidance not to gamble excessively and not be greedy because greed can lead to addiction one day, later.

I do not understand why individuals continuously grumble about whether they lost or won in their most memorable betting encounters. Gambling is similar to a toss of the dice and it is possible that we win or lose. Gambling corporations are not driving individuals to become addicts. Everything entertaining, has excellent flavor foods, and smells lovely can likewise be addictive, and we players need to discipline ourselves. Furthermore, gambling did not make individuals greedy. Greediness is inside of certain individuals and not because of gambling.

You are have spoken completely well and I needless say that I agree with everything you said, it's rather unfortunate that most people in gambling seems to be gambling for the wrong reasons, and one of such wrong reasons I would say is, the need for money.
As much as it's very possible to make money through gambling, having a mindset that only thinks of making money through gambling is a complete wrong mindset, and this is why most gamblers still find it difficult to stop themselves from gambling, even for a while when they see that it's not working out for them, and they are also ready to see gambling as a fun venture.

And also speaking on greed, you are right, greed is inside of a man, if greed was in gambling, then no doubt, every one who gambles will be completely greedy, but for the fact that some of us who gamble steadily are not greedy, proves that greed is something that is inside a man, and it can be aroused, only the man himself can control it by letting it possess him or by putting it back to its place.

Thank you all for your helpful opinions.

My gambling experience was not a happy one but I experienced losing my first betting bet. It was a sportsbetting experience and since I had no experience in that experience, I made a mistake in choosing the team while placing the bet, which caused my first bet to lose. Since this was my bet on a football match, if my team selection was not correct I had no choice but to lose. But my first betting experience was a small amount of loss, so my gambling losses were small, so my experience of sadness was also small.

I would say you are lucky because I believe that people who often get addicted to gambling are the ones who manage to win some money in their first few gambling sessions. After all, this outcome creates a positive perspective for gambling in their mind and they keep thinking that they can earn money from gambling which makes them gamble more and if they don't stop, they eventually become addicted to gambling.

This is why, though it's kind of sad losing money, you shouldn't be sad because this notion might save you from a bigger loss by saving you from getting addicted. However, since you said it was on sports betting, I think sports betting is not as addictive as gambling games are, and one can barely get addicted to sports betting this easily.

Sorry to hear that your first gambling experience wasn't a fun one. Playing sport bet is quite fun and can yield profits for gamblers. As a first timer in the gambling niche, it's crucial to be careful with predicting matches. I understand we get naive and want to know what it's like to gamble and how much that can be made immediately. Looking at the responses of other members on their first day experience, I'd add that I wanted to see a fast outcome during my first day in black roulette game, but it ended up the wrong way. So, the problem that gamblers face on the first day, is as a result of the mood and curiosity of the player. Trying to know how it feels like winning lots of money in gambling. And gamblers also have it in mind that on their first day, that it'll be possible to make a big win. Those thoughts, also stays in them for a longer period, during their gambling journey. Whatever experience one had on the first day, staying calm and responsible is key.

Yes this is a situation where a gambler especially those beginners to experience a change in mindset and perspective on gambling just because they managed to get a win, as you said that in that situation it is possible for them to think and assume that "I have done the right thing that ultimately makes me manage to go home with a win", I think it is not uncommon or even many gamblers who eventually lose consciousness because they are too serious in taking the sensation of the victory they managed to get which in the end they unconsciously become so confident that they already know how to gamble the "right" way that can produce victory. And I would say that this is the initial scenario of a gambler entering the addiction cycle where they will feel strange when in the next session they lose even though they have done the same way as before when they managed to get a win, and this makes them unable to accept the fact that they lost which ultimately causes emotions that are the beginning of many out of control actions. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of risk in gambling because this activity is a game of chance that involves risk.

The horrible part is that some of the gamblers start analyzing their moves in case of losing. "What have I done wrong this time?", they think, "What made me lose?" And if you are searching hard enough, you'll "find out" eventually. It can be "wrong" time of the day or week. Or wearing "wrong" clothes during your gambling session. Millions of things.

That's right, I believe that what you're saying is a fact that people do experience when they're in a losing situation, trying to identify their mistakes in ways that sometimes seem absurd to most normal people. The point is, if you are always looking for something in the sense of trying to find what you did wrong that made you end up losing then obviously I think your actions are completely futile, and you will only create your own excuses which are basically not the real reasons that made you lose.

However, as I said before, these are the things that you will feel when you come without a proper understanding of gambling, you will look for anything that you think is reasonable enough to be the reason why you lost at that time. This is actually a completely absurd action because the randomness of the algorithm implemented by the casino makes it impossible for us to identify the location of the error, so don't take gambling too seriously, because the name of gambling is always about winning and losing which will always be the answer at the end of the session, it's actually very simple, if you lose it means you are unlucky.

First gambling experience is usually a little different from regular experience as a gambler continues to gamble. The best way to gamble is to gamble responsibly. Now when we discuss gambling responsibly it actually goes down to discipline and prioritization. A responsible gambler should be disciplined when it comes to how they stake and even how often they gamble.

A responsible gambler should learn how to prioritize the Right things over the others to prevent unnecessary addictions and losses. Yes gambling is viewed as a fun activity and should be taken as such.

The most important thing a beginner needs to understand in gambling is to play responsibly. The problem most beginners alwsys have is that they do not understand how to play gambling, which they think playning is by using a big amount to play and playing with such amount will bring profits . A beginner also needs to know their limit of playing gambling, because some gamblers thinks winning gambling is about the more you play.

The first gambling experience is not about how big of an amount that is used in playing gambling but the important thing is to have understanding of playing with the amount you can afford to lose. Gambling responsibly is the best start for any gambler and this habit can also affect one lifestyle all through playing gambling.

I totally agree with your emphasis on responsible gambling for novices. Many learn the hard way. Its about knowing the stakes and when to back down, not the number of bets. Too many think more play means more chances to win. This untruth is hazardous.

My advice is to gamble what you can afford to lose. Self-preservation goes beyond money management. Game excitement can cloud judgment, leading to regrettable judgments. In gambling, setting a limit is a strategy for longevity, not weakness.

Indeed, adopting this approach from the outset might mold one's gaming lifestyle. More than protecting your pocketbook, its protecting your health. Gambling wins are not losing more than you can handle.

Gambling is about luck and for be a new person in gambling will not give you the chance of losing or the chance of winning, two things are involved in gambling either you lose or you profit in gambling so what is important in gambling is to know or have in mind that is something of disadvantages and advantages neither you are an old gambler or you are a fresh gambler, it's an opportunity we use to win anything that do with gambling, its doesn't necessarily mean that as an old gambler you have better opportunity to win gambling or as a fresh gambler you also have opportunity to win gambling.

The experience and the knowledge was the essential one for the gamblers to place bet in the sports betting.The analytical skills was the important one for the casino games in the gambling site,but some people think that the analytical skills for both the casino and the sports betting.The gamblers who had more interest in the sport betting compared to the casino should skip the casino game altogether.Because the gamblers should be focused in one game,this will help the gamblers to make the good betting.Because the betting quality was the important one for the good results at the end of the game.

Gaining experience from placing bets can give us something to know that we still need to learn a lot about analysis to guess or predict which team is likely to win. These analytical skills must be trained continuously so that we don't have difficulty finding the team and don't need too long to analyze. Gamblers who frequently place bets on sports betting must always learn about analyzing matches and find out where they can find the information they need so they can add to the data to be analyzed. By improving their analytical skills, they can immediately analyze each match to place a bet.
