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.


Your opinion is absolutely spot on. For one to gamble responsibly, he must that narrative that to gamble is to lose the money used in gambling and that will help him to regulate the amount of money he'll use to gamble whenever he's gambling.
Gambling is something that consumes much of a gambler's time hence it's absolutely not good for anyone who's engaged in something that's personal meaningful to gamble frequently. Greed in gambling isn't healthy for anyone as it'll make anyone who's greedy in gambling to end up as a gambling addict

We shouldn't be greedy when we're gambling or we'll regret it, we should have a budget for how much we want to spend for gambling daily and have a limit on how much we can wager on each bet. I place my bet without any regrets, I don't mind if I lost or win but I try not to be tempted to increase my bet just because I feel I'm going to win that particular game. It's always when you feel you'll win that the house wins. Be comfortable with what you win when you bet and move to the next game.

I play sport betting more often and my limit is betting $50 for each game I want to stake on, even for games that one side is more favorites to win and I want to bet against the best team or for the best team, my wager would still be $50, doing this helps me to  not get tempted to increase my wager
Getting greedy while gambling is probably the number one reason why people lose way more money than what they had on their budget, as once they get some wins they immediately think about how they could change their life if they could keep those wins coming, so greed causes those gamblers to ignore a very important fact, that sooner or later that good luck will disappear and it will be replaced by bad luck and then the profits they had obtained will go down until they became losses.

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.

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.
Yes, that how gambling is, when we just test our luck and try by betting small amounts we can winner and this will make us regret that we can't bet large amounts so we can win by doubling the money many times over.
However, when we are sure to place a large bet but it turns out we lose, winning or losing is uncertain. That's gambling winning a bet can be called luck, but it is better for us to bet with an amount of money thats we can afford to lose so that we don't I regret this too much and it is better for us to win with a small profit than to lose with a large bet amount.

Aside from motivation of getting wins or money, greed comes with low emotion quotient, in fact gambling attacks your emotion after you lose. Have you ever experienced that you are talking to yourself whenever you lose a bet? Also, I guess greed is made by your instinct to win, it is always that thinking that you need to bet big to win big. But it is normal in gambling, if you're a gambler you know what its like and how it feels, losing after being greedy is pretty much common for all gamblers, because we think that it's all or nothing.

The greediness was come to the gamblers due to the continuous loss in the gambling.The gambler can’t control their emotion in the gambling.The gamblers who uses the emotion in the gambling,may use the money which he kept for the other purpose in the gambling.The emotion was even occur in the trading of the gamblers,So avoid of greedy was most important one to the gambler.The continuous game after the continuous loss due to the greedy to get big win may loss the entire money of the gambler into the gambling.

We can't avoid blaming ourselves when placing small bet if there's an instance that winning huge amount will be possible.
People will always blame themselves because they are greedy.
When they win $500, they will think why not place a bigger bet so they can win $1000. Or when they won $1000, they will think they must bet bigger funds to win $2000. Sure, greedy people will never feel satisfied.

Placing a bet should become a mindset, that you can afford to lose that amount of money in order to keep yourself free from frustrations.
Agree. We must put betting with a realistic amount of money, which means the safe money to bet. Betting with excessive amount, probably leads to a huge regret when we fail. Honestly, I usually just bet with small money if I'm not really familiar with the game/match. But when I'm quite familiar with the game and the teams who are playing on the match, I can increase the amount of money to bet.  Grin

The main reason is you want to make money, that's why you feel greedy and want to increase your bet in order to win big amount of money. To get rid from this you must gamble only for fun, this will make you able to control yourself. If you're in a condition lack of financial and want to make more money, you should try to get a side job or learning a new skill first, then you will have nothing to lose to gamble.

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.
That's actually martingale and you'll not like the result of it because you're going to chase your losses until you win. But as you're seeing yourself going continually with that strategy, it's better to stay with your limits.

If you have a lot of money then means it doesn't matter.

With all of those regrets, that's normal but that's only for a few seconds or minutes then you move ahead again to your next bet. Change your mindset about you should have bet bigger every time you win with small amounts.

Change it to like when you lose and then you bet with small amount and start thinking of what if you have lost with huge amount from that bet?

Interesting, what you say in this thread certainly also applies to some gamblers out there or in our community. Regarding greed in gambling, for me this depends on the perspective of the gambler himself. why do I say that, I will take an example, when we have got the highest win you have ever won, your win level will automatically change.
just like we work, at the starting point we only get a standard salary. Gradually as our position increases, our needs also increase according to our lifestyle. Is there a correlation with this, of course yep. as I said at the beginning, when you achieve the highest win you achieve in gambling. Whether you realize it or not, your level of play will change, whether it's the amount you bet or the target you have to achieve.

In most cases, it usually is. at this point, one could say that greed has started to get the best of us as gamblers. However, it all comes back to you and how you respond to it. Usually, you will no longer be interested in betting on small bets, that's why you want to place bets in large amounts. things like that are commonplace. That's a sign that you're not gambling for fun but aiming for a big win. However, there is nothing wrong with that and most importantly, you are ready for all the risks.
On the contrary, the second point you said is highly correlated with the first point you said. because you often or have had big hits, then when you win a small amount you regret why you didn't bet a large amount. For me, overall what you say is a common problem that occurs among gamblers.

Well, it's my turn to tell you how I gamble. Firstly, because I like sports, automatically the bets I often make are on sports. at this point, I usually limit my bankroll to my version of gambling. I bet as usual, if I win I can bet on another match, the bet can be doubled. or, according to the situation and my confidence at that time. in some big matches, like big matches, or the world cup, I can bet large amounts. but with the condition, before that I will set aside a little for betting later. So, if I lose, I will not harm other parties or eliminate our basic needs and obligations. for other types of gambling, for example slot games. I only usually use a small bankroll, play just for fun as entertainment regardless of winning or losing. Well, that's more or less the gambling style that I apply as my personal terms and regulations.

Only ever bet what you are willing to lose. You don't want to lose the shirt off of your back! Go in with a plan and don't stray from that plan, especially when you're gambling. If its a one off and you're absolutely sure then go for it, but don't make that your norm if you can't afford it.

A person is not in control of himself when he becomes addicted to gambling. More winning and greed work in their brains so people take decisions in life which cause loss for life due to excess emotions. Awareness is needed to control emotions in some situations you can't control yourself notice them. If you can identify the cause of negative things like anger anger frustration restlessness etc. it will be easy to control emotions and there will be no trouble.
More wins will make them greedier to get more wins and they must not try because losses can come when they decide to continue gambling.
People decide to continue gambling because of excessive greed, so they place big bets and don't know whether they will win or lose.
They feel that they are just placing bets and gambling and leaving the results to chance and if they lose, they will place bets again.
And when they win, instead of choosing to stop, they will continue gambling and often run out of money.
Every gambler should avoid this so that they do not lose a lot of money due to their greed.
We, as gamblers, must be able to control our greed because it can result in losing large amounts of money.
The most important question that you should ask yourself before you go to gamble is: “Why am I coming in?” We need to understand this clearly. The vast majority of users come to relax and have fun after a busy work week. So this is what you need to do, and not break down after another loss and exceed all kinds of limits and try to win back. You need to know that this can happen to absolutely anyone and to you too. You need to be prepared for this. And at the moment when you want to get even, say a firm “NO” to yourself. It is at this moment that everything is decided. Managing your greed is in this moment.

We all know that greed is one of the feelings that sometimes take over us as players when we are on a good streak. It is not difficult to handle but it must be done quickly because if you give it too much time things can get out of control because you can't. things can always be handled well , I do not advise playing in a casino and drinking alcohol, because that way things are more difficult , it is to play in your right mind, when things are Going on a good Streak that is when greed comes in the most, you can predicting that many are playing in favor of it and it is not the best decision, although it may have good luck in circumstances, it can be said that things when They go in that direction can turn around and go out of order, unless everything goes wrong, so it is not advisable I believe that when you as a player start thinking, you get more money because the more you have and the more you love each other, in this case it doesn't apply, the casinos, the game is not meant to be taken lightly like that, because the money can go away. Very tough, the best thing is to have a lot of restraint when playing, and I think that every time you have the thought of betting much more than before, thinking that you can lose, that it is better to come out positive and not negative.

In the management of funds in our balance there must always be a mental alarm that we should not exceed a certain number or It is to be something profitable in games, not to be so open that greed takes over because I have seen and read here in the forum how greed can make strata in people, even addicts can become, to avoid this type of acts I apply Something, the first thing is that Every time I play and I get a profit, no matter how small, I leave it there, I don't continue playing, because I have learned to see the game as if it were a business, I don't know, but so far it has worked for me , starting from the fact that the casino is a company , we as players must also see ourselves as Companies.

Most common reaction inside gambling, when you supposed to close your session because you already have some wins, then you decided to continue because of greed inside you, thinking that your luck is unstoppable and you already know how to play with the strategy or patterns that you believe will give you more wins.

And once you start experiencing losing streak, that desperation inside you will lead you to keep playing and the next thing you know
everything is already out of hands, and the outcome ain't in your favor and brings stress and regret to yourself.

We can't avoid blaming ourselves when placing small bet if there's an instance that winning huge amount will be possible. However, if you're greed comes so high most probably regrets comes after if losses tend to occur with highest percentage.
Placing a bet should become a mindset, that you can afford to lose that amount of money in order to keep yourself free from frustrations. Always be satisfied of what decision you've come up with.
Definitely if there's a possibility we know how a game will turn out, either a winner or a loss we would place probably a better stake on the bet but for the sake of been on the safe side we mostly tend to place small money to get bigger ones and it could be seen as a way of managing risk, or better still called a risk management strategy to cut down on our losses.

Placing a bet on something you can afford to loose is such a risk that is unhealthy and can cause some one to definitely go in to unhealthy practice after such losses, so it's always responsible to just place bet only on what you can afford to loose so you have less emotions attached and you get the fun and entertainment that come with gambling.

We can manage our greed level by setting a certain amount we aim to achieve with every bet we place and sticking to such limits so we don't get greedy, sometimes it's all good to be very realistic with our bets and aswell position our selves with options that are possible, don't let your hunger for bigger amounts cause you to place bets that are not realistic and you end up loosing instead of winning.

Exactly, it is very difficult to escape from such wrong instincts, even though initially you have managed to get a win but surely the assumption will come out that "I have to continue playing with a larger number of bets so that the winnings are also getting bigger", and after that your money including the results of the victory will run out, it usually happens when they have won. And then especially if you lose, as you said they will not accept the results and surely the first instinct that comes out is that they have to get their winnings again with a larger amount in order to cover the previous loss, then they will make another deposit with very high hopes and a little emotional feeling of revenge, but what happens? Well lose again, that's a fact that often happens and of course must be avoided because it is clearly very dangerous. The fact is that most people who end up addicted and end up with all the downturns start with problems like the ones I have said above.

I think it's just nonsense even though they initially said that they would make full control with some restrictions there, because of course it is very unlikely that they can do it when conditions are not good - okay. Cycles like this will continue to happen and only a small percentage can get out of a zone like this, so set the right mindset when you are new to gambling, don't be tempted by anything because it's just a trap, there is no certain victory but only defeat will continue to dominate.
People typically think they're resistant to gambling addiction until they're hooked. Though "I'll control myself" or "I won't let it get to me" is easy, our brains have a weird way of justifying our actions when we're losing. We say, "Just one more bet and I'll win it all back" or "This time, I've got a feeling it'll be different." But does it ever change?

Healthy gaming involves much self-awareness and discipline. Limit your gambling. Leave when you reach that limit. No doubts. Otherwise, you'll keep losing. Casinos and internet gambling sites are meant to hook you. Do you control yourself or do they?

I think it's just a defense for all the mistakes they've made. The fact is it's just a saying and very unlikely to be done by them, they will try again and as we know the percentage of defeat is higher than victory, but their mindset is like turning things around, nothing but that because their hopes are too high there. I agree with you that usually even if they lose they will say "one more try and I will definitely win to restore the previous loss", but the fact that it still happens is like that "losing again".

I think that's the main reason why they've been stuck in that cycle for so long, the casino is just doing what they've always done and the fault lies with the gamblers themselves who, despite losing, always remain curious to try. Cycles like this have no set period of time, if they still carry that mindset then they will be stuck there forever. Yes that's right, this habit is very dangerous and we should do a lot of self-control there, don't hesitate to quit even if you are upset because of losing but it's a better end result than you keep trying it and experiencing more losses, so use your logic.

Greed in betting is easily limited by the thickness of the wallet. If the wallet is not completely full, then this will moderate the ardor with the bets.

Regrets, self-blame and other emotions are not appropriate in gambling if you are chasing a big win. Emotions will not help, but on the contrary, they will only harm, therefore, it is necessary to restrain them as much as possible and adhere to the strategy. Only a systematic, prudent and balanced game. It's like you're on a secret mission and one wrong move with your bet will reveal you. Smiley It is more prudent to place bets in accordance with your limits, determined in advance by the strategy and initial action plan.

Better yet, for your wallet, is not to gamble at all. And then, all the above-described problems and questions become irrelevant. Smiley
But the thing is we cannot avoid these emotions, we can only manage it. All people has this kind of emotions , some people can manage it very well but for some people they cannot do it because their emotions controls their brain, their decision and they cannot think properly because they only think that they need to win no matter what happen and it will cause them so much trouble.
A person is not in control of himself when he becomes addicted to gambling. More winning and greed work in their brains so people take decisions in life which cause loss for life due to excess emotions. Awareness is needed to control emotions in some situations you can't control yourself notice them. If you can identify the cause of negative things like anger anger frustration restlessness etc. it will be easy to control emotions and there will be no trouble.

The answer is obvious, I am trying to avoid going broke that's why I am very careful with gambling, it's not new that gambling can make you lose your mind and get addicted, these type of disease 😷 must not get into my body, I am scared of greed, I know what this can do to a gentle soul, that's if you let it, even if you want to be greedy, gambling isn't the right thing to be greedy about.

Everyone wants to make money, through luck and not their business or hardworking, that scares me, this is why people lose themselves to gambling and turn addicts because they don't want to move on without getting their losses back.

Chasing your losses will just prolong your addiction with gambling and it's possible that you will never get your money back and you will not be able to move on, it's really scary and I don't want to be this friendly with gambling, my money my rules if I am not ready to lose the money, I am not gambling.
