I must have learned to gamble when I was in high school. I just remembered that I was very addicted to gambling because I always won at that time. The bets were small because I was still in high school, but for me at that time it was a big deal. But of course you don't always win at gambling. That's where I learned to steal money from my parents just to gamble and my parents found out about it so they scolded me and told me that gambling is bad for children. I don't remember the others but when I was scolded that's when I stopped gambling.

It's fun and exciting, but it has bad effects when you get addicted to gambling, but of course I was still young then, now I can control myself.

It was a good experience from your gambling case, but of course you need to learn something from there and not repeat the same mistakes again. Gambling addiction is a condition where you may fail to balance your spending on gambling and your income, this is clearly bad financially so that in the end you will do silly things like steal to fulfill your gambling desires.

Some gamblers also have the same problem, but if you manage to balance it then you may have less to chase after winning than to have fun. In the end gambling will be bad if the gambler fails to be responsible for his gambling, while conversely you will not have a bad impact if you are a responsible gambler.

Responsible gamblers are those who can control themselves and gamblers should not delegate their responsibilities to others. It is very clear how the effects of gambling can be a high risk for those around us if there is no self-control from ourselves. Maybe there are still a lot of people out there who still can't take responsibility for themselves, but that will definitely get better if they can do positive things every once in a while to refresh their minds from gambling.

That's right, responsible gamblers can control themselves because they take less risk and should also keep close control over the amount they bet and be prepared to bet they can afford to lose. But those who can't take responsibility basically crave the thrill of playing, the sheer joy of winning and the experience of achievement, the brain craves over and over again. Similar to video game addiction but more intense making money is not the main thing here. For example even if someone gives him the same amount of money, he plays in the casino which leads to more losses.

I have the same experience in sports betting. The higher the bet, the higher the chances that I am very serious about it I followed the sports or team or player a lot and I also did additional research to support my bet. Although the amount is still something I can afford to lose. Dust amounts are like yolo bets to me and I do not feel the urge to make some serious analysis just like when we play at casinos.

So we all have different memories of our first gambling experiences. What matters most here is we are enjoying it and without regrets if we lose the money we are betting.

As long as you can analyze the match well and find a team with a higher chance of winning than the opposing team, you can increase the stakes so your wins will be even bigger. But if not, it's better not to increase the stakes and stick to small bets. And what's important is that regardless of the amount of the bet, it's an amount that you can afford so that you don't have any regrets if you lose that sports bet.

And yes, memories from the past when we first encountered gambling, whether using crypto or fiat, will indeed become memories for us so that we can still learn something from those memories. And if our memories in the past have experienced more losses, we can learn to gamble less so we don't experience more losses. That's all so we avoid repeating the same mistakes we've made in the past. Especially if we can be wise in using gambling, we won't lose a lot of money playing gambling.

Sure, its great to analyze matches, but relying solely on analysis is like shooting a three-pointer with your eyes closed. I enjoy a decent gamble as much as the next person (if not more), but lets keep things fair. Betting more on a team because you 'think' it will triumph is a slippery slope

It is nostalgic to recall the early days of crypto or fiat currencies. What about losses? Yes, I've been there and done that. However, rather than simply reducing wagering, why not eliminate it entirely? You know the saying, "Go big or go home," but sometimes it's best to... go home. Let me conclude by imparting some wisdom: gambling prudently is an oxymoron. You truly desire to be wise? Perhaps use the funds for something else.

not bad, my initial experience in gambling was when I accidentally made a bet and it became x2 of the existing capital, actually I wanted to review gambling sites but it made me win and it was quite fun. well unfortunately victory is not always forever I can also experience defeat. for just gambling games it's fun.

It doesn't last long most of the time. I am quite fond of using the auto bet feature and all I can tell is that gambling sites most of the time give you some win on your first 20-50 bets and then take it back on the remaining bets that you will make.
It will make you feel the greed of winning more thinking it's your lucky day but all of those are just lies and soon they will be taking it all back little by little without us even noticing that it gets big in the long run.

I was also lucky on my first time playing casino games but sadly, I was sucked by the invitation of greed to win more and I gave up all the profits including the capital. Well, shit happens if we cannot control it, discipline will always be the key to getting the upper hand against casino sites.

Yes, of course, our first gambling experience can be enjoyed more than the game after getting to know gambling, because it prioritizes winning and achieving the target to return losses, I also think we all have different experiences and definitely remember them so we can get here in the end as gamblers true and active in the casino also in this forum.

Everything will be meaningful memories for valuable experiences that will always be obtained from starting to play gambling until now, every win and loss is part of a risk so that matter is definitely understood as a gambler, it is a normal thing to happen because gambling is not always talking about profits but also losses in gambling are definitely experienced by all gamblers.

The sports betting was the most used platform by the gamblers,they bet on football maximum because of knowledge in football.When the betting amount is high,the probability of Winning is not the feature of sports betting.It also the common one for other betting in gambling,In other betting people uses multiple bets.Multiple bets bring more possibilities to win on one game as compared to other small single betting.The betting amount in gambling should be like it was affordable to loss,hence the value of betting should be low for the more affordable.The first betting will be the dice of most of the gamblers.

It was a nice flashback when I read the OP, it's a very good one for me as I made x5 of my deposit in the first month of my gambling experience and the withdrawal was smooth as well. This experience is running to two decades now when there was nothing like cryptocurrency. I started betting in sports, football to be precise and it has been my favourite since then.

From my experience, I will always prefer it when I want to bet with huge amount or get serious about betting. Otherwise, I gamble the rest for fun, I'm careful of the money to lose, so I can't really say there has been a good experience in my casino part, it's all for the fun.

You were so close to actually win against the casino.

First you need to win more than what you have paid in your lifetime, which you just did.

The next step was to stop gambling forever. But that you didn't do

Before,there was no much games online,but now there are a lots of games to bet online,which will not even require you to go to a casino hall to place your bet.Most of those games are sucking blood,it will suck your money till you go bankrupt.The invention of these online games has done more harm than good to people who love gambling and placing bets online,however,there are people who are happy about these games because they know how to predict the outcome,and how to win.
The moment my friend showed me how to gamble online,I knew there was going to be a problem about savings,and ever since then,saving money has been a big problem to me and also other persons that love online games.

In the previous gambling without the emerge of the crypto currency,very few game was their.That few game was dominating the market,this allow us to enjoy the multiple games in the online itself.Before people use to go to the casino hall for the game.Their will be some class partiality in the casino hall.The high class people alone allowed to play on the casino hall.The online casino allow the people to play without any partiality.In short the online casino had eliminate the class politics in the casino hall.In online casino,all the class people was given equal opportunity.

very good point and this is like good advice for someone who wants to try gambling for the first time, you have to think about your mentality, mind and readiness of mind not to place too much importance on gambling in the future after entering the gambling room. because if you do not have the right plan at this time there is too much online gambling and wherever we can access gambling and if you can not regulate or prioritize gambling then surely that person will have problems saving because he will continue to gamble and ignore saving for the future.

We have priorities in whatever activities we indulged in, just have to cope with good earning stream. We ought to control ourselves whenever we're in the gambling center, and we should always bet on what we can afford to lose, not grieving after losing. It means nothing but to developed the mindset of revenge, that's one terrible path one shouldn't wished to take, because it will never end well. Gambling is only meant for the working class peoples, because if one is not working to earn income either weekly or monthly, it would be a difficult situation for them. They tend to use every penny they lay their hands on to wager which is absolutely wrong.

overcoming income streams is the same as managing financial expenses and income or simply planning a budget for gambling, is that true?
always planning a budget for gambling it is indeed the responsibility of a gambler to reduce losses or expenses that are too much than income and gambling is not intended only for the working class but all people have the right to gamble as long as he can afford to lose the money that will be at stake as what you said. there are so many gamblers out there without having a job and just being unemployed but still determined to do this activity because sometimes someone thinks of gambling as a job to generate income but that is a bad idea.
I understand your point about gambling for the working class in the sense that people who have a job can make up for the losses they make for gambling with the income from that job.

I found something quite interesting recently:

Quote from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling

A 2020 study of 32 countries found that the greater the amount of gambling activity in a given country, the more volatile that country's stock-market prices are.

I find this fascinating, the whole economy of a country is in a way dependent of the amount of gambling that the citizens of that country have.

It kinda makes sense though, as some people might see the stock market as a way of gambling as well, even though it is not.

This statement hit me differently but then, I think the US gambles alot and not just betting, they do plenty of casinos but their economy is one of the best of the best, their stock market is not volatile except when there is global problem which usually affects not just a single but all the countries, so I am not sure if that quote message do any justification to places where there high rate of gambling activity.

However, when I look at my country, there is high level of gambling that happens here and high volatilty is very high as well with stocks but again, is not all, there hardly been more profit or loss in stocks because of lack of growth but of recent, the new government policy is transforming the country in different form, I think that statement is only applicable in few places.

I'm not sure if there is a small percentage of gamblers that are addicted because others won't accept that they are addicted to it; we just haven't noticed it. Right now it is really rampant as they can't control themselves in doing gambling activities because of the fun, and again, let's say that they got lucky to win, but comparing what they lose, it is still more that they lose money. That is why having a habit is really helpful for all gamblers so that they can transfer their attention to it.

That's right, many gamblers refuse to say that they are addicted to playing. I myself have never said that I am addicted to playing slots before. From initially playing once a week to playing almost every day for several months. I judged myself not being addicted at that time, but along with the many losses I experienced, I tried to find wins, until I kept playing every day and realized that I was addicted. Lucky for me, at least I'm not playing too intensely anymore, and trying to realize that slots are not to be used as a winning competition against the system. luck is luck, can't be chased.

I completely disagree with you. What makes you think gambling is for the working class?

We all know dozens of gamblers who are very successful in life. Many people tend to hide their gambling hobbies and I am sure that among rich people and politicians there are many people who gamble and hide it from the public in order not to feel the censure of those people who are far from gambling.

In my opinion gambling has nothing to do with the wealth of a person.
