Unfortunately, greed comes when they want to stop and tempts them to go back to gambling for one more round and only then can they stop. And it turns out that the gambler was tempted and took one spin but apparently, he failed to get a big win and instead lost. This made him curious and he continued one more round so he had already used up the two rounds that he should have been able to stop after his last win. And everything turned into many losses because he lost all his money, including his winnings.

We need to exercise caution to a certain limit while gambling which can be able to help withstand the urge for addiction or greed that may comes in through continuous gambling at a stretch, gambling is not what we should blet our emotions get on us so that it wouldn't cause ue making repeated mistakes over time while we may be thinking of giving several attempts for a win in gambling, honestly this story started well but ended being pathetic because he eventually lost the whole money at the end.

if by chance my memory serves me right , back in the days when i am still active in local gambling in my former location ,
there is a time that I gamble for how many hours putting big amount in jackpot number combination but sadly never come my way, but when I lose everything and need to stand from the table? then that number combination comes out.
I know this is not too similar in your question but for me there is similar answer.
because the feeling is mutual and that is we wait and pray for that win , yet did not come my way .

You are definitely not alone in that and it happens with everyone at some point. It has happened a lot of times with me when I was playing roulette and betting on numbers. Whenever I place a bet on a number or maybe on multiple numbers, none of them hit and I feel really bad, and when at some rounds where I just have a feeling that maybe 3 will come this time but I don't bet, and surprisingly, that number comes at that specific round only to make me feel bad even more.

That is basically how gambling works, it is not going to make you win just because you are making large bets or thinking that you need to win something big. If you are extremely lucky, you might manage to win something without having to bet high amounts but if you are not, you won't win no matter what you do.

Something that may change my life forever? It must be talking about something big but the question is, what kind of game is it? Is it like betting in sports with huge odds? or betting on any other games with huge bet amount but will lower odds? I ask this to make it more real and to compare with my own gambling limit. Since I'm a small gamblers only, I think I will never have the opportunity to win something that may change my life forever. Lets say I have the opportunity to win in something like a guarantee win but I have no money to stake, I'll try to get some money but not from a loan. Maybe I can sell what I have but I will not bet more than I used to bet even though I'm pretty sure that I'll win the bet.

Much better to use the money from something that you own, instead of borrowing or loaning that might adds up to your problem if things turns against you, even there's edge or maybe some little assurance that the bet will win, we are still in gambling and no one can guarantee that the outcome will always be at your side.

Though, it's really a risk that you needed to take if you wanted to have that opportunity to change your lifestyle.

All on your own assessment and how willing you are to embrace whatever the result of your actions.

These places that let you bet and gamble count on that little voice that says, "Just one more time!" People and luck are not always friendly with each other. Like when you find a great treat and think, "Maybe just one more bite!" even though you're full. You ate the whole cake, bam!

As you said, quitting while you're ahead is the smart thing to do. When you reach your goal, take a moment to relax and look around. Getting better at self-control is more important than the money. Like a diet, you dont have to completely avoid cake, but maybe dont eat it all at once?

Yes, that will happen; many gamblers have often had experiences like that. They thought playing one more round would be okay, so they continued gambling for another round. But the reality is not what they think because, with one round, they often end up losing. And many of them in that last round use rather large bets, hoping they can take home more money. But instead of winning, they lose a large amount of money that they have used so that the previous winning money will not be the same as before because it was used to bet the last time.

Stopping gambling at the right time must be done and these gamblers must really pay attention to this to avoid losing again while they have already won. But we know that this greed will keep coming to them to want to continue gambling and keep whispering in their ears to play one last round. Only wise gamblers can really stop gambling because they will not think about winning again after winning previously.

Yes, that's right, because behavior like that is only addicts and stupid people who do that sell whatever they have just to gamble, sometimes even steal to gamble, if you don't have money, why force yourself to gamble, whereas gambling is actually only for people who have money to have fun, that's a middle and upper class game, so don't force yourself to look for fun in gambling, let alone money because it will be in vain.

I probably wouldn't gamble if I didn't have money because I usually spend my time working and gambling only on work days off at weekends, I only use a little money as a small bettor just to have fun and if I don't have enough money I never will. gamble on that day, after all gambling must be with money that is not used and also gamble with money that we are ready to lose.

You have done the right thing because you can control the time when you will gamble, you use your time to do real work and gamble just for fun and you don't use enough money to gamble because you already have a good mindset. That gambling will lose the money we bet and we must be prepared not to regret it in the future and that can be said to be a responsible gambler and will not make you addicted to gambling.

Of course this will be something that I will definitely regret if it were ever to happen to me. But there's no point in sulking and crying over spilled milk. After all, if you don't really have the means to place a bet and play, you shouldn't. Because there's also a possibility that you will lose. And if ever you did, where will you get money from? Loan? Borrow from a friend? It will just bring you trouble.

Just do better next time. Work smart so that you could have savings and spare for your hobby and other activities that could bring you joy. This way, you can bet freely without worrying and thinking about what ifs - what if you will win or lose and just calculatedly risk it because now you can afford it.

In the end everything is defeated by greed, right?
indeed the biggest enemy of gamblers is only greed and emotionality which sometimes prevents gamblers from getting their big wins and what is worse is a gambler who almost never gets a big win and has spent a lot of money on betting at one time to get a big win but unfortunately that greed comes to dominate his mind with thoughts of wanting get even bigger and end up losing again like before.

basically, all gamblers must have good control to know the limits of when is the right time to stop to avoid evils such as addiction and greed, but this must also be supported by high commitment.

Yeah, you're right. Greed will defeat gamblers and they will experience a lot of losses even though if they could stop in time, they would not experience many losses and could even enjoy their winnings. Greed and emotion will clearly prevent gamblers from getting their big wins because they won't know when they should stop immediately, even though they can win a lot of money. They should immediately stop right after winning a lot of money, withdraw their winnings, and leave the casino to enjoy the winnings.

Unfortunately, greed comes when they want to stop and tempts them to go back to gambling for one more round and only then can they stop.

Just like you and likewise other people, such feeling is one that won't go away easily when you miss such opportunity but like every incident and phenomenon that happens, time is the only thing that will heal it.

I have lost some bets maybe twice that wasn't my fault but it happened not to favour me in that bet, I think benfica was in my both bets slip and they lost against my prediction, although not a life changing bet but I felt bad during that time. Yes we are human and missing an opportunity to have your life experience changed for better is really excruciating but time will heal.

I don't think that there will be anyone who will not keep regretting losing such an opportunity if it truly happened as you come up with the story. Whether you are a regular gambler or playing for fun, if such a thing happens, you may not get yourself for two days because you keep having the imagination of why you have won the money.

This type of thing has happened to me before, despite the fact that it is not the amount of money that can change my entire life, but it is also a big amount of money to me. It happened like this: I predicted a game, and when I wanted to deposit, I was having issues with deposit due to a weak network, so in a few hours the games started, so I was unable to bet it, so I just forgot about it. Later, three days later, I tried to check to see if maybe which game would not come as I predicted, so when I just checked it, I discovered that all the predictions were correct.

Well the story is a very common one and I've experienced this on several occasions where there was no money for me to place a bet and fortunately all the bets and games turned up to play and I can relate with the pains that comes losing out from a possible winning.
Well as a gambler, there are alot of things you'll experience, from losses and winnings and what matters is the lessons you get from all of them.
People really have to learn how to let go of the past and focus on winning the next game but it seems you were really pained from this incidence because this is already the second related topics with regards to this and I'm sorry all you missed out and if you want to be successful in gamble or a core gambler then you should always be ready for any opportunity that comes.

People like those (me) who don't gamble for fun have this question to answer: how will you feel when you don't have money to stake a game that you predicted and better winning games you predicted played the way you predicted it and when you checked the winning was something that could have changed your life for ever if you didn't gambled again after such winning?

This question can be very tough to answer, but believe me, many people won't stop thinking of that if it happened to them, so I want to know your opinion about how you would feel if it happened to you.

If it happens to me, I can't stop thinking of it, but definitely one day I will stop thinking about it and see it as history or not yet, my time for big wins just like how it happened to me when I lost a bet that would have given me long-term smiles.

When I gamble, I don't take it seriously because my gambling is really just a hobby. If I win, it's fine; there's no problem if I always lose. Because I do it just for fun and sometimes just to relieve stress.

That's how I treat gambling here in the crypto gaming business. So I know for myself that I will not lead to addiction. This is something that sometimes I don't understand with other gamblers: why they let their passion for gambling lead to addiction when they can control themselves if they really want to.

I will feel excited to know that my predictions at least comes to pass even though I did no make a stake on the games, and also for that I will be sure that anytime I have the funds to stake games I will at least use some of the experience I gain from that game analysis, because the last accurate prediction will give me the boldness to have the right frame of mind to chose my next games.

Knowing fully well how unpredictable football games can be and how we have to rely mainly on luck and other factors that come along with analyzing and predicting accurately, in some cases.

Hey this gambling anyways you have to be prepared for whatever outcome and only stake an amount that wont put a hole in your pocket, sometime may be lucky to win and most times we record losses also, but in both ways, we have to maintain one reality which is not to depend on gambling too much that a failed bet could affect our well being.

Regardless of the outcome of a game, I can just feel excited or remorse for a moment but not for long.

Why are you so sure that by betting on something you will get certainty and guarantee victory. Also, why are you so sure that after winning you no longer want to gamble? Generally, because of the uncertain nature of gambling, thus encouraging us to become increasingly curious and ultimately fall into a position of irresponsible addiction.

What kind of feelings should we show, disappointed, angry or very sorry? Of course people will think about it, but I think something that is not ours doesn't need to be mourned for too long because it can make us dizzy and lose our enthusiasm to continue other activities and let's just say it's not our luck.

That's true and has happened to many gamblers who have achieved big wins but because they continue gambling in the hope of getting another big win, they end up experiencing big losses. It will be an unpleasant experience where they should be able to get a big win and now enjoy it but can't because of their own greed. Even though they rarely get big wins, when they do, they don't stop but continue gambling.

That shouldn't happen if they have clear boundaries and especially should have strong self-control so that they know themselves and can stop immediately after getting that big win. And if later we are given the opportunity to get that big win, we must remember that it is time for us to stop gambling and immediately withdraw the winnings before everything changes. If it changes, we will only regret it.

In the end everything is defeated by greed, right?

Man that was confusing as hell, could've just gone with a bet that could've changed your life but you didn't take (or weren't able to). Disappointed though to answer it, 100%. It might be something along the lines of "if it wasn't yours then nothing was really lost" kind of idea, but still, the "if" moment that it could've been yours. It happens a lot of times in our life, just much more apparent when money is involved. I often have the feeling for a few days and I just move on though. I'd remember it every once and a while but then the disappointment wouldn't be as big, probably around a few hours only by then.

If we don't have money, we shouldn't force ourselves to gamble because whatever work we do is forced, bad things could happen and we can't predict the outcome of gambling, win or lose, we won't be able to know. If a gambler wins, of course he will not stop gambling, it is possible that he will bet bigger than before, and if he loses, he will not necessarily stop gambling because he hopes to win. Maybe with self-control a gambler will play carefully and there will be no regrets for them if they gamble well and correctly because they are aware that gambling carries the risk of losing and winning and must be ready to accept all these risks.

Yes, that's right, because behavior like that is only addicts and stupid people who do that sell whatever they have just to gamble, sometimes even steal to gamble, if you don't have money, why force yourself to gamble, whereas gambling is actually only for people who have money to have fun, that's a middle and upper class game, so don't force yourself to look for fun in gambling, let alone money because it will be in vain.

Get over it, this happens to almost every gamblers out there, there are days where I predicted some matches and they all come alive, just like I predicted, but unfortunately, I don't use money to place the bets.

It's all about luck, you just missed yours on such days by not placing the bets, It can also work the other way around, like placing the bet and winning nothing, do not take it to heart, it's very normal for such things to happen.

This is why I hate hoping for money through luck, it can mess your way of thinking up, I prefer doing the hard jobs and learning a niche to make more money, if the money isn't enough I will prefer to improve myself, with a demanding skill you will be a walking gold bar, as people will always want you to work for them on something, and more money will just flow in.
