Controlling emotions is not something everyone can do, to me it's not that easy, and when it comes to online gambling I only make sure to set some pace for myself, some boundaries of dos and don't, instead of battling with emotions all because I want to make money I prefer using my level of understanding to handle things like gambling.

Of all the risk investments I know, gambling and trading are the worst of them all, simply because they can get you rekt in a short period of time, they are too risky because you are predicting what price action will be or what results will be, this is what gambling is.

Trading is a bit better because you can use analysis, trading tools and charts at your advantage, such isn't available in gambling.

Instead of trying to control my emotion, I understand how risk these type of money making ways are, so I use very little money to try my luck with them, because that's what they are, I don't allow such things in my head.

The only thing I allow in my head and take very serious is investing money on Bitcoin, I even choose to invest in other assets apart from Bitcoin, gambling and trading is something I still do but occasionally, probably when I have the money to take such risks.

Do we have to mixed up emotion with gambling, i don't think we need to take such huge risk.
 Emotion has no place in gambling since it going to ultimately leads to losses in the long run and for a gambler who is looking to win any bet he must first of all depends on intellectual calculations and not emotions, because emotion is just a feeling but intellect application will birth right decision and possible game-winning along the line.
Maybe anyone doesn't want to mix emotions with gambling because it can have a significant impact on betting and the chance of losing but without wanting it realizing it we always bring up emotions when we lose or fail to win large amounts so it's impossible not to mix emotions with gambling.

Controlling emotions can still be done to pressure ourselves to act more calmly and less recklessly but emotions are an innate attitude that every human being has so they cannot be eliminated in any way.

Moreover controlling emotions also influences the luck that can come and by having emotional control gamblers can be more patient in waiting for the right time to risk money in order to reduce the chances of losing and increase the chances of winning even though it is not guaranteed at least there is an effort made.

Those endorphins tell us, “Do it! You’re going to be rich!” So, of course, we do it and then, when the 49ers beat the Cardinals by 30 we fall into a survival depression because we realize we needed the money we bet to pay rent.

Doing something like the above doesn’t mean we have a gambling problem. It means we have to understand how our brain works. Then, we have to realize that our brain doesn’t understand things the way our mind and consciousness do.

We can then pull our brain back by saying something simple like, “Brain, calm down.”

      

Probably every gambler has heard his inner voice trying to tell him to bet larger and go for more risky bets. That is greed talking and we all can be affected by it. It's important to understand that our brain likes to play tricks on us and how we can avoid falling for them. Many people are struggling with it, it's not only the gambling community. There are many courses on how to meditate, control our breathing, autogenic training or try to control the activity of our brain. They are all helpful and everybody should give them a try to see what helps them personally the most. In case you don't have the time or money for such a course, the best idea is to take a break, go for a walk and get some fresh air. A change of scenery helped me a lot and it brings up a lot of new ideas. The thing with online gambling is that it's always around, there is no urgency to gamble right now at this time. Taking a break for 2 hours and coming back in the evening is no problem. It's going to be same type of games and the same winning chances; we are not losing out on anything.

And do you think it's easy to do as you said it now? Easier said than done actually. We all know that mixing emotion with gambling is very bad but the question remain how can we do away with emotions while gambling? You know human mind and emotion are naturally joined and can not be easily separate especially when money is involved. Thinking of what to do with the money if you win or what you should have done with the money if you lose the gambling is the reason emotion set in while gambling. The highest we can do is to minimize the emotion and not allow it overwhelm us since we can not entirely do away without it. The fight is now to focus on how to control the emotions and not how to gamble without emotion because virtually you can not do away without it.

Yes we need to have a balanced emotion to take a proper and reasonable action in our gambling life. Some gamblers are only focused on winning and when they don't get it that way then they begin to lose their emotions that brings in anxiety to want to keep playing in expectation of winning back their money.

Having a stable emotion is pivotal to the success rate in gambling. I have seen gamblers who keep changing their pattern of bet especially in soccer because they lose from previous strategy. But those who are consistent in a particular strategy accept it when they lose from time to time because they understand it is the way the game is.
That's the point of having emotional control so that we are not influenced by things that can make us emotional. Gamblers who only want to chase win will experience defeat after a loss, increasing their emotions. And if they continue gambling when their emotions are high, it only makes them more emotional and ultimately, they won't think twice about controlling themselves and their money. And finally, they are trapped in a situation that will make things difficult for them because they have experienced losses before and their emotions have run high.

They will find it difficult to win and even if they can win, they will think about recovering previous losses, making them continue playing without thinking about stopping gambling. All they can do at that point is immediately stop gambling and leave the casino and don't look back because that could make them return to gambling again. Those of us who are used to gambling must be able to control these emotions and if we can win, it is better for us to stop gambling first to rest while lowering our emotions.

Without money, I'm sure people wouldn't gamble, but seeing that possible reward gets people interested because they think they might get lucky. This is one of the fundamental factors in gambling. Additionally, if we cannot manage our emotions, we must be prepared to be consumed. Without certification, you become ungrateful. Furthermore, people are not always willing to let go. It is best to leave things as they are if you play a game and lose because it is not a life or death situation. We all know is natural to feel bad when you lose a game but trying to do revenge gambling nah its risky. And those that gamble and win money are wise and always know what to do it all comes down to attitude if it doesn't work that way, altering course can be helpful.
The answer is maybe, but if they see that their friends can win from gambling, they may borrow money from their friends first to gamble and later return the money when they win. But instead of winning, they experienced defeat and couldn't repay the borrowed money. This often happens to many people and they start to experience difficulties in their lives which were previously fine.

But we know that if we can control our emotions, that also doesn't guarantee that we can win because, in gambling, we can't always win. That's why we have to be careful when gambling and not be tempted to continue gambling, especially if we can already win. It's better if we stop immediately to save the winning money that we have earned so that we can withdraw it and enjoy the winning money.

Good emotional control does not have certain limits. If there are still limits, this means that we are not able to control our emotions when we carry out gambling activities. And it is true that luck is the main factor in gambling and I cannot deny that. However, if we only hope for luck then it will be difficult for us to win. Indeed, when we talk about gambling it is about "fun" not "profit", but winning is still our desire and hope when gambling. So when carrying out gambling activities, especially in sports betting, don't rely too much on luck so that you make predictions haphazardly. So first make maximum effort in analyzing the match before making a new choice. Later, after we are sure of the results of the analysis we have made, you can leave it all to luck.

By the physical excise one can increase their emotions and self control habit.The self control is needed for the human being in many ways,for the drinking addict.It’s essential to control the consumption of drinks,for the people who use to take more junk food should be control using the same self control.The same self control can be used by the gambling addict to get away from the gambling addiction.It’s very hard part to get away from the addiction immediately.But with the practice one can slowly get away from the addiction and back to the normal gambling habit.Quit the gambling will be big task for the gambling addict.So slowly from the gambling addiction was easy one compared to full quit of gambling.

Agreed, most of the time emotions play major role when the gambler had lost successive bets. As stated one should be more logical while choosing the odds. In reality people have different thinking when we see the higher odds on teams. On different factors gamblers used to go with different choices. In such scenario luck used to be the major factor. Being emotional is good, to some extent, losing control is the bad thing. Particularly this happens much with casino games.

There's no better thing than been on the winning side. We're betting because we have objective that we want to accomplish in the realm of gambling. Winning has always been and is bound to remain one of our system's most important goals, but it's complicated to accomplish if we don't make appropriate templates regarding how to execute it. Emotions should be avoided at all instances when dealing with the system. When emotions become apparent, we should recognize what's beneficial and understand the entirety of the circumstances.

More than 70% of the gamblers have their gambling statistics with more winning bets than losing bets. If the profit/loss were considered, majority of the gamblers will be in loss. So, winning more bets is possible whereas it is hard to be on the profiting side.

In what all way you control yourself, it is all about the luck that makes a gambler successful and losing in gambling. One could stay safe in gambling if the prime reason for their involvement is entertainment. When the prime objective changes, automatically the risk need to be addressed.
It means that people bet on things like 90% chance to win, which means that if you win 8 times and lose 2 times, you have more winning bets, but the result is still a big loss. This type of betting is usually for increasing the wagering, so that people would make more money, that allows you to end up gambling more, if possible people would play 1% chance to lose games, because that means if you lose even just 2 games out of 100, you would be in a loss, but at the end of the day you would have wagered 100 times and that's how people approach wagering.

Wagering a lot usually means you will get rewards from the casino, and people want to cover the difference with that, and to do that they have to have high wagering amount.

Learning to control our emotions is very useful for us to still think clearly in all situations. We can think of solutions and make good decisions and not rush because we will think everything through before making a decision. This is why we must always learn to control our emotions, which are useful when we gamble and useful for us in other situations.

Depression is real, Negativity is real, Emotions and fear also follows but we are built to go through all this, it's what makes us human, These are things that we can't all escape, and on the other part of us we are programmed to learn from them and grow.

The problem starts if you fail to learn from your falls, you can be in control but the payment is been disciplined, when a child comes into the world they don't talk or walk, it was all a gradual process, we fail so that we can learn.

You lose to your emotions so that you can learn how to control them, you get into the wrong hands because you are weak and the lesson is to become stronger, like I've said already, this is the only way to learn as a human.

Every mistakes is fine but not learning from them is wrong, Reshape yourself and be a better person.

An uncontrollable emotions is what lead to so many crises that we face in our life as human and even in gambling,  trading and investing,  emotions play a significant role in all of that aspects,  let say that if you can be able to put your emotions in check and minimizing the rate at which you react to things it will go a long way in solving numerous problems for us.

Take addictions for example,  be for one slide into gambling addictions,  their first of all get involved overly in gambling and instead of pulling out at the right time,  they allow their emotion to control them too much and in the end are forced to become uncontrollable addicts.

But if one can put such tendencies in place and limit/control yourself from getting to much emotional towards those activities, one will still be able to come out safely.
Humans often lose their emotions in many aspects and not only when they gamble and they realize that they have to learn to control their emotions. But they still repeat it and can't control their emotions, so it has a bad impact on them, such as being unable to make good decisions.

If they are gambling and losing, it could be the beginning of losing control of their emotions because they will see they are losing. There will be a desire to recover their losses immediately. This loss of emotional control will escalate when they experience more losses and some gamblers intend to end it all by betting big one time and in the end they really lose.

Learning to control our emotions is very useful for us to still think clearly in all situations. We can think of solutions and make good decisions and not rush because we will think everything through before making a decision. This is why we must always learn to control our emotions, which are useful when we gamble and useful for us in other situations.

What I mean by limit is that when you make a coupon with 5 odds with, for example, 100 dollars a day and repeat it every day in a simple way, if you are a good analyst and if you are lucky, you will earn 400 dollars a day. I usually want to play a high amount with an ideal coupon, that is, a coupon that I do not risk too much, rather than playing at a high rate, so that maybe I can have the chance to earn a passive income daily.
This mistake is the same as wanting your favorite team to win all the time and betting on it, so you need to be realistic when betting and determine your own risk. If you set a daily bet limit and betting rate and in return, if you are going to bet, we may have the chance to get a more careful and less risky gain.

When placing a bet we need to take out the emotions for our country, for the team we want to win and rather focus on the team which is strong and have more realistic chances to win the match and therefore we win the bet.

Many times if our national team is playing a match against some other opponent so we will naturally want our team to win it. Sometimes it becomes extremely awkward if you place a bet on the opposite team and then you will start wanting the opposite team to win the match.

In cases I will usely not place a bet when my national team is playing and I know that the opponent is stronger and would win the match.
Normally, this is how it should be. When we act with emotions, we actually determine the winning side in our own minds. What should happen is to find the right choice according to this analysis after making a general analysis of the match. Let's not just connect this to the national team. It can be any team we support in our country and this team will lose in the derby match, but if we act with our emotions again and play considering the possibility of the team we support winning the derby, this will be a really wrong decision.
That's why when gambling and betting, it is necessary to put emotions aside and make the most logical decision. Your heart is actually playing the bet with emotions and greed.

If we play with the emotions,it mean we are the losing side is my opinion.Because the bet using the emotions will be failure all the time.If we bet on the football and you are betting on your national team with the love towards your country.But if they won't failure no problem,if they fail in the football.Then the gambler are forced to loss the game.But be practical in the game,if you feel your team will win the game.Then bet on your money in your team or else you can do bet on the winning team,because you are using the real money.But your nationalism should not allow to lose your hard earned money.you should be more practical in betting.

If we are loosing bets just because of our inability to how we can control our emotions then there's a need to work on that and readjust the approach used that always led to this failures, this begins with being calm, patient, taking enough time to review, researching more about the bet or game, avoiding hasty decisions and so many other things which we can do to help us get over it and not be emotionally controlled while gambling.
Maybe we need to learn how to control our emotions first and not gamble for a while until we can control our emotions well. This aims to ensure that we can overcome every time there is an increase in emotions because we have lost so that we can reduce further losses. But few are willing to stop their activities and start learning to control themselves and their emotions because they have found pleasure in gambling so they don't care that they have problems controlling their emotions. But if they are willing to take the time to learn to control their emotions, it will be useful for them not only when they gamble but also for other things because they can be calm and not make hasty decisions.

On the time that you would really be dealing up with gambling then it should really be just that normal that you should be thinking up first about those probabilities on encountering such decisions on which i could say that it would really be inevitable knowing that gambling could really be just neither be winning or lossing which there's no other things which you could really be ending up to.The thing on here is that when dealing with some games which the house or platform would really be always having the upperhand on which it would really be just that normal that losing would really be more rampant rather than on winning and this is something that you should really be accepting for yourself about this damn truth about gambling in the first place. Emotionless kind of betting? Its hard to maintain or not really be able to lose your compusure even if you do say that you do have that sufficient experience but since we are just human beings who do hate on losing money then having no reaction would really be impossible. In the first place on which
gambling is really just that for fun but due to those hopeful mind and emotions  then people do really end up on being desperate which is really that evident basing up on the current numbers
and situations where gambling industry is rising.
Gambling is a realm of risk, and the house typically wins. Many reject this hard truth because they desire money and cheap dopamine. Gamers struggle to stay cool. People detest losing money, making it nearly difficult. But it's worth practicing since it can help you avoid rash decisions out of hope or desperation. Gambling should be pleasurable, but winning money drives people crazy. Growth in the gambling industry proves this. Participants must recognize the chances, be prepared to lose, and control their emotions
Gamblers must understand that to some extent these are mind games. Casinos or other gambling sites know very well that the vast majority of people won't be able to control themselves. Gamblers will always want more and never stop. Even if he wins the jackpot. The casino knows that after a while he will return and give it back and perhaps bring even more money. The main thing I would like to say is that you don’t need to be like most people. You need to that very small % who will say to himself: I stop and leave at any moment, regardless of loss or win. These are not just words, this is exactly what needs to be done.

Gambling addiction is not just about the brain, their other things that are involved for gambling addiction.  The major cause for addiction is that many has taking it  and set their mind towards it as the  easiest way to  make money. Some people see gambling as if they are not far from money, so they must play gambling to make money. People just develop interest in it that leads to addiction and it is too difficult to  get rid of it because of the  interest they have develop overtime.
Gambling addiction is something of brain because its the brain that process the information of gambling and it motivate us gambling frequently, people who is gambling addictive they are addictive in gambling because they have nothing else doing except gambling, when you offer someone who is gambling addictive employment the length of its gambling will reduce, so therefore I believe that gambling is where young youths and adult's who lacks employment hope to earn a living, so some many of gamblers, gambling has ruined their life and they release their mistakes very late
in other words, gambling addicts have a greater influence on someone who is unemployed and not have a job?
I slightly disagree with your opinion because even a big businessman or someone who has a stable job is also addicted to gambling, who initially gambled for fun, became addicted when the casino made him comfortable and this comfort is what makes it difficult to stop betting. so the factor of having job or not is not problem for other people to become addicted as you said if it is all just a healthy mindset for each gambler.

and all of that is still related to controlling emotions. if a person is able to control himself to control his emotions well, I think he will win himself without approaching gambling of any kind.
