Thats whats important on which treating gambling as a form of entertainment rather than making yourself that thinking about making some sure or guaranteed profit or money because once you do have this kind of intent and belief on mind then you would really be that prone into those kind of possible actions that you would really be making due into that kind of belief and this is something that must really be avoided or else then you would really be finding yourself at great trouble which it wont really be just simply affecting only yourself but also affecting into  those people around you specially your family. Managing towards funds is really just that simple if you do really just make yourself that responsible and sensible towards on whats wrong and whats right on which you could be able to make up decisions according into that. Dont make yourself that too shit on making actions which you do know that it could really cause a havoc towards your family finances and this is something not really that
worth on doing so. Play on the amount which you can totally ignore if in case it would be resulting in a loss.

I agree to that, it's just needed to be a practice in order not to fall in that same situation, better to use the amount of money that you are willing to let go and treat as payment for your entertainment instead of thinking of gambling as source of your income, it's tough or maybe can say that next to impossible that you can make money out from gambling alone.

Either you are an expert or you have good control over your emotions, as even expert sometimes losses their control and forget about their
limits, you need to have that power of will stop when it's needed and not to fall with your emotions to push forward and keep betting.

Once greed enters our minds, it is difficult to control it, especially if it is right there in the place where that greed was formed. Although there is a proper process, and that starts with ourselves, of course,

Isn't it usually true in gambling that the root of greed is the desire to have a lot of money?
Greed is one of the things that irreparably destroys people. Those who can't control this greed are slowly falling into destruction, as in my personal example that day I was so greedy to bet on the Brazil vs Venezuela match that I got carried away. When Brazil scored first and still gave 40+ odds for the draw, I couldn't control myself at all and a fear started working in me that Brazil might win the match. When the match was a draw at the last minute, I started to feel bad that why I didn't bet on the draw. From here I understood that greed is a very bad thing that plays an important role in destroying a person.

This thing called greed is what we all have in our self, there is no one who will say they don’t like go see the amount they win from gambling big we all want that, and those achieve this we need to increase the amount we wager, the only individual difference that we have is that we can control this greed to some certain level base on how we train our self to it’s difficult especially when we have the money at hand, but it can still be controlled.

For much long now I have never place bet with a higher amount but there was a bet i placed few days ago and i was tempted to increase my wager from what it should be before, Let say i often gamble with at least 200 Naira and maximum is 2,000 for a multiple bets But recently something came into me to start increasing my wager above my limits due to a game that was predicts to me it gives me all possibilities that I could cash out big time. This now made me to come here to asked how do you control your greed with your bet amount, do you go ahead placing the bet as your minds speaks or do only maintain to your limits whether it plays or not doesn't matter.

Again why do you regret after putting smaller amounts and it happens the games went as planned and starts blaming yourself for not increasing your bet amount, maybe by now you could have cashed out big time. How do you control this thought over your ends do you keep to your regulations of always placing bets with some limits or you place bet according to your mind and regrets after losing that amount for not following your limits?

Lets discuss wisely and if something related to this post please point it out.. Maybe would devote time to study what has been written over there.

Isn't it usually true in gambling that the root of greed is the desire to have a lot of money? But this is not what an individual gambler should do in reality; instead, the only thing to do as a gambler is to play and enjoy; let the luck come to you spontaneously when you gamble; this way, for sure, even how can you fight greediness from another angle?

I have noticed that gamblers usually increasing their wagering amount exceedingly beyond their normal amount on bet predictions that were giving to them by a random person or the so-called VIP gambling groups. What's the inspiration behind that? Is it that as a gambler you don't believe in yourself being capable of predicting games that could have high stakes to play as predicted by you or you just don't believe in your luck shining for you?

Many gamblers have lost big money because they chooses to bind their hopes on predictions that were given to them by others and they ended losing it wholly unexpected of them. If you don't assume you can win all by yourself why gamble at the first instance?

As a fully aware gambler, i have never regretted the bets i made, the phrase "what if" never crossed my mind, i think that in all the gambling activities we do, we must be in control of it.  

i also wonder whether by regretting it, time will turn back and i would have made a big profit if i had placed more bets at the start!!  

anyway, you can't regret all the decisions you have taken, just believe in yourself and you have played safely.

Managing greed when gambling is simple. Just assume that you’re going to lose and think about the added enjoyment from playing. If losing that bet seems like it will suck more happiness from your life than winning would add joy, then you’re probably gambling for the wrong reasons and would be better suited pumping quarters into an arcade game.
We're into the system to lay our hands on the require profits that are available. One of the most terrifying challenges that gamblers encounter in the system is managing greed. Trust me when I say that not all gamblers can withstand the environment as a whole. You're just saying it to make it easy and pleasurable for others to hear. Greed cannot be completely eradicated from the system, although it can be minimized based on the gambler's mentality. Since greed already exists and tends to target gamblers who are typically and steadily earning respectable sums from the system, it is tough to eradicate.

I agree since greed is already available when a person plan to gamble.  The want to increase one money by taking risk of gambling is triggered by a person's greed.  If a person is not greedy then he will just be contented by how much he has in hand.  Gambling his money to get more money is a simple representation of greed at work. To be able to manage greed, we need to limit how much we have to lose trying to win some money and stopping when that limit is reached.

If losing that bet seems like it will suck more happiness from your life than winning would add joy, then you’re probably gambling for the wrong reasons and would be better suited pumping quarters into an arcade game.
Agree about thinking to lose but why will we need to think of the enjoyment as well? I think that's contradictory and we can still end up playing that way. We should rather think and/or say that gambling is boring or dull. Like you said, putting a quarter in the arcade game are more enjoyable and it can give us a nostalgia.

I am sure every adult loves that feeling. I'm not only sure if there are still arcade games (cabinet) that we can find in the malls because in our place, it was replaced by rides for the babies and kids to play around. There is still nothing wrong playing gambling for fun or using small amounts only. Losing it won't be a big deal to us.
Thats whats important on which treating gambling as a form of entertainment rather than making yourself that thinking about making some sure or guaranteed profit or money because once you do have this kind of intent and belief on mind then you would really be that prone into those kind of possible actions that you would really be making due into that kind of belief and this is something that must really be avoided or else then you would really be finding yourself at great trouble which it wont really be just simply affecting only yourself but also affecting into  those people around you specially your family.

worth on doing so. Play on the amount which you can totally ignore if in case it would be resulting in a loss.

I think even if a person see gambling as an entertainment, it is still fueled by greed since the person aims to win while indulging himself to the entertainment gambling brings.

I don't have a fixed amount of money that I use in gambling, I stake based on what I'm good at losing each week, secondly, I stake odds that vary from 3 -to 5 odds, therefore I do stake based on the availability of odds from a choice of games in a given slip,  meaning the lesser the odd the higher the money and the higher the odd the lesser the money, verse versa.  
Having that limit too so I wont be greedy when bad things happen especially your emotion can be tricky too and being greedy is not good at all. Well, if you are going to see a better odds every time you place a bet then it can be good, but then again you have to do your analysis because there are bets that is not worth it and it can be risky as well. If being greedy is your problem, then have your strategy in place and make sure that you will follow it.

At the start of your bets, you don't need to think of how positive you are going to win because everyone has been doing that, and yet, you'll never know the results of it. And when you bet, just put whatever is the amount that you can attain to lose and don't have any regrets at all. That's where the bad thoughts come from when you seem to be regretful when you've won because of the small amount that you've won there but the feeling of winning, you're ignoring that part. Do not be greedy and you only need to look at the brighter side, if you win, you win. Then if you lose, you lose and there's no regret whether you win or lose big amount because from the start, you're already aware of what could be the outcome is and you have just that thought of having more but it can't happen the way you expect it to be.

Betting random amount suitable for casino games such as dice, roulette, and slots whereas you should be careful with poker games where you have to raise the money and beat the opponents so it's different so the strategy comes into play also should be different on what games you are betting at. Simply if you want to control the greed then just skip the bet and that is the honest way in my opinion.

Controlling the betting amount and staying under our limits will work to some extent but with greed, I don't want to take any risk and I am not going to lose anything if I am not letting the greed take over my common sense.

I am more conversant with sport betting than anything other game out there, that is the area I mostly indicate interest on the rest mentioned games I do find difficulties or do I say since I don't pay attention to playing games that could be the cause. I can devote time to watch football but can not spend time to play games. Just as I said only gamble with 200 Naira which is about 0.2$ with the current rate of dollar today and maximum of $2 I think with this amount is fair enough to use and gamble.

The easiest way to do this would be to make sure that you are not getting into your savings, if you have some money aside and you are trying to gamble with it then the result will allows be disappointing and you will hate yourself if you lose it all.

The smarter way of doing this would be making sure that you are not spending it all and you are not reaching into that when gambling. Just have some separate amount which you think that is for gambling and to lose. If you agree to lose the money even before you gamble that would not make things harder for you and you should be happy about it. I personally do not imagine it would be too hard, and when the gambling stops and you end up losing it all, you can't possibly be upset, because you knew it even before you started.

I just keep my bet fixed since I only play slots, I only bet on minimum $0.10 or $0.20.  I only put a small amount as my bankroll so that I won't be tempted to bet bigger than I planned.

I manage not to regret whenever I hit huge multiplier by not thinking the words "if only I bet higher" since thinking that kind of word can possibly trigger our greed.  Then if we become triggered by greed, we will lose all our sense of limit and bet higher thinking that we can get higher amount.  This kind of thinking is devastating because players end's up losing more when luck don't smile at him.

This is normal in betting there is the tendency to get tempted to increase a wager, of course you have to be sell disciplined to avoid such habit remember there is no sure bet because gambling is a 50:50 chance thus there is a possibility of losing that bet after you might have increase your wager, personally I have a fixed rate for my bet and I only needed to manage my wins and be consistent in winning my bets therefore I don't feel tempted to increase my wager for example even I knew that team A will win team B because they are a very strong team I will sticked with my normal rate of wager, however I add to more games to increase my odd.

It's not greed but rather you just want to test your luck. There's actually no need to discuss how to manage that.

If you feel that you will really nailed it, don't hesitate and just place your bet.

Good for me to lose as I tried it in the place rather than to feel regret when that bet won.
That's why before we gamble, we have to have a budget or know how much money we want to use for gambling. This is called a limit, so we will not violate the limit and try to be careful in placing bets. If they win, there is a possibility that greed will make them place another bet, and that has happened to many people where they end up losing, which may be more than the amount they won previously. And yes, they can place their bet if they think they can win. If not, it's better not to gamble because you might not be prepared for the losses you will receive later. And rather than regretting a small loss or win, it's better not to gamble.

Never get into a position where you turn gambling into a career, some people turn Poker game into a career and that's why I don't involve myself in games that are too hooked, where you need to develop the skills of reading the other player and their possible next move, I can do this only if it doesn't involve money but in gambling is not good.

I prefer playing the easiest games that don't require my time and focus, I believe that adding time and focus with gambling is wrong, that should be diverted into something you have going on in real life, businesses, or your goals.

Always remind yourselves that to gamble is to lose, this will make you think about the money you are about to lose, if it's too much or you can't afford to lose the money you will control yourself to take out of the money before making deposit on the casino, gambling is a test of luck, no other explanations makes sense than this.
This will be a big problem for those who take up gambling as a career. Although there are some gamblers who have taken up gambling as a profession, not everyone has the opportunity to do so. Uncertainty exists in all types of games so no specific game should be expected to do so. It is best to try to control our self and get only entertainment from gambling. I would say the same to you who gamble must be willing to lose. Every gambler must remember that if the win comes then luck is good otherwise there can be no room for regret. If I am not greedy for gambling money then I will definitely be able to control my gambling activities.
