Yeah, it goes all to hoping but temptations are so powerful too that it is so hard to get them right out of us. I think while you are not that deep from gambling, better keep yourself from betting your money and hoping it will be greater if you bet it. Better invest it so you can have good money in the future.

The temptation is really powerful and especially those that have only been in gambling quite recently wont be able to get out of it. If you get out it sooner then you might be able to completely control it . Alot of people fail to control their greed and they will spend alot more when they are greedy because they will want to win more money in the end

How to control greed on gambling OP asks. By not gambling? Lost 3 BTC once in bustabit even with what I thought it was a "infallible" strategy and never gambled again. If you want to gamble then It is better to gamble your money on the altcoin market.
If you decide to leave gambling for good then that is fine, but we do not have to be like that, one way to leave your greed behind could be to play some friendly gambling games with your family in which the most important thing is not to earn money but to  relax and have a good time, with time you will get used to this and you will have the same attitude in a casino.
It may work for some but not for others. If a person is looking after money only, then it really does not matter who his opponent is, the intentions will remain the same. It could be that he might enjoy the game more but he would still want to win and earn some profits.
Actually it is the matter of greed. Human is greedy and it is natural, everyone is. So as you said, whatever you are against, whosoever giving you lessons for not being greedy still you are ending you looking for more profits and easy money.

Still many can control themselves and majority got victimized of this greed, it happens. Still hopeful for not being greedy.

For me it is simple. There is no control when it is about gambling.

You are wrong, there's control in gambling. Only the gambler is the one that can do that control and if you are thinking that you can't do it, then expect what will be the output of that way of thinking. And for sure that will be a negative result because you don't have plans of controlling and instead of looking some better ways you are judging yourself that you can't do it or there's no way for you to control greed.

If you could control yourself you wouldn't be gambling in the first place, everyone knows you will very likely lose the money. You never really know when you are about to lose or win so after you start betting there is no such thing as controlling yourself because you don't control the odds, you might very well just lose very fast or win a lot, how do you manage your ''greed'' in those cases? You cant.

Don't say like that, control means that you have the power to take over into something. And if you wouldn't be gambling in the first place then you don't have an interest in gambling and that's the simplest answer why you are not into gambling. You can manage greed believe me, if you are a responsible person and you had bad experiences from the past then for sure you'll be able to make it.

You cannot manage greed, you are either greedy or not, there is no such thing as managing greed. You could start playing dice and tell yourself, ok I want to win 40$ if you win 40$ and you keep playing, does that make you greedy? Maybe, however you can always lose way before you win 40$, are you greedy in that case too? Yes, you are greedy the moment you play those type of games knowing very will the odds are against you.

even when you have a plan already sometimes that greedy could come up naturally.

as it is the human nature , you can not really release it from your habit and yes it is just the matter of time only. sooner or later even you have successfully deal with your greedy and passed it all , sometimes you will have to face that greedy and regret it later.

I agree with this one. Even if someone has already set limits of until when he will gamble, there will be times when he will be tempted to continue because of the greediness and it is human nature. The purpose of gambling should be for fun only because if someone has the intention to gamble for money, he will always be tempted to earn more because of that purpose and greediness cannot be controlled. Maybe for sometime, he will be able to control it but then eventually he will just give up and continue to gamble because of the possibility of earning more.
that time when you think struggle to get out of your gambling habit as you have done everything , and yet the efforts did not lead you to control gambling and just make things even worse than before you should consider to looking for a serious help from a professional.

i just think the percentage people completely successful control over their greedy in gambling are so low , more to always failed.
Most of them do definitely failed on controlling their-selves specially when the addiction is already severe which you cant really control no matter how hard you think that you should stop.Our minds is the most powerful thing which can really make us stop even some say that having a strong mind will already made you stop but this is really a case to case basis on a certain person since not all people do have the same control.
Controlling greed is like controlling a wild fire. It takes time and energy. People really get blind once they become greedy. Even some forget about their families, relatives and close friends also. This is how dangerous and powerful greed is.

Indeed, money can make friends and foes. If someone wants to get control over this greed, he must keep on telling himself that money is not everything.
As one of the player in gambling my comment is simple, it's hard to control the greediness because when you are on fire in one game and you feel that your condition was in good. You cannot stop your self to continue the game and you can't notice that your capital was also including in to your loses. Stop gambling to avoid greediness.

Of course the greed and the craze to have more money that they have is what normally drive greedy people to gamble and it's unfortunate most of them lack self control and so they tend to be victims of addiction if it doesn't go the way they anticipated.

Its not actually right to limit yourself to have fun specially on playing gambling since there are people who are willing to spend some limited portions of their money to seek entertainment but self control would be crucial on here,once you do forget already on the set limitations then for sure you would end up on messing things in the end.

Those fun seeking gamblers are just jokes, they seem to not have any excuses for their failures in gambling and the best way is to lie that they are having fun. To be serious with gambling you ought to set limits for yourself and have a clear cut plan or strategy that you will follow no matter what.

Exactly they lied not only us, but you what's the really thing is they really lied to themselves actually. All of those excuses were just a diversions that gambling associated to fun as excuses from those happy go lucky gamblers. Setting limits can be discarded when the reality of the bets hetting hotter of current situation

It is one of the most difficult tasks to be done in our life - CONTROL over yourself even when you know you are doing something wrong.
There are a lot of things in the world which are weird and gambling is one of those things doing which a person loses his capability to stop himself from continuing it, under the influence of addiction. When such things happen, either should you see a guide to help you get out of it or to help you do it for fun and not living, or you should start doing things and keep yourself busy with them which will help you to recover from the distraction it creates in your mind.

well you have to learn to accept reality and if you do then you can easily control your gambling habit and greed. Alot of gamblers are not realistic enough and they set high targets that are unachievable and so they tend to loose everything in the process of trying to achieve the unrealistic target.

You are absolutely wrong, me as a gambler who are addicted and can't quit gambling since 2011, I assure you that with experience you can arrive at a stage where you can control your greed, but this level cost me you much money and much time.

This is the kind of thing I real like you are raised with, if your raised to be a greedy person I feel like no matter what your always gonna push it a little when it comes to things in life and gambling probably is not any different. There are some methods I use that help, simply set aside a certain amount of money to gamble with and make the others inaccessible for the night. Also, its important to have session goals when you sit down to play anything at a btc casino, from blackjack to poker to slots. If you hit your goal for the session, the red lights should be going off. You get burned enough times not cashing out when you need to that your greed takes a backseat to better decisions.

If you are feeling greedy, the right thing to do is not to gamble at all. This kind of game is designed to make greedy people lose money. People who play for fun, on the other hand, have less chances of losing a lot of money, since they do not feel pressured to play over and over again.
I think if we want to control our greed on gambling we should swear first to do not achieve our limits in any kind of cases. We must sets some rules and follow it. I think there is not obligation to quit gambling at all, also because it's not easy. So greed can be avoided by using mind and heart, and think about the results.

Although it is great in theory it rarely works in practice. The reason for this is because when you gamble, and you win, and then you lose, it's like you are high on crack. Your reward system in the brain is all over the place and you can't really think rationally, this is why it's so damn simple to get stuck in a gambling addiction. That's why it rarely works giving yourself promises or swearing things prior to gambling.
