It's a fact, we as players , but first as Humans we have the Potential to make our own decisions, if we make the wrong decisions Everything will fall apart and there's nothing we can do about it, things can go well or bad, and the game is like that , and in life it is like that too, because of our decisions we are where we are at this moment,

My country prohibits gambling. But many gambling sites still exist. Prevention through socialization and blocking is not effective. Perhaps some disagree with this issue. But our country has ensured that gambling activities that occur in the community are more detrimental. There are many cases of people committing suicide because they have a lot of debt to gamble. Many house land assets were confiscated because borrowed money from banks could not be returned. This is why my country prohibits it, but this condition does come from everyone. They will have different thoughts, unqualified human resources also affect this problem. Many people don't want to work hard to earn money but they continue to gamble in hopes of making money.

Bad experiences or situations is something that could teach us on how reality works and on how it would really be affecting us on which its up to someone or an individual on how they would really be accepting those things or would really be that adjusting on what are the things that they should gonna do. It is really just that there are individuals who cant really just that be able to sensibly be able to make out some good decisions despite of the bad conditions that they are experiencing into. Gambling isnt really that bad on which the only bad thing on here is into those people who do make out bad decisions towards their gambling activity
on which this really causes for their lives to get miserable just because of the wrong decisions that they had made.


It's a fact, we as players , but first as Humans we have the Potential to make our own decisions, if we make the wrong decisions Everything will fall apart and there's nothing we can do about it, things can go well or bad, and the game is like that , and in life it is like that too, because of our decisions we are where we are at this moment, because where we have made different Decisions who knows where or with what people we Would Share , so this is like that with games of Chance , it will Always be something that is like Scrodinger's cat, it is there but it is not there if a condition is met , I think all this is connected in our lives and for some reason we should live as we have Done , I think that can be a Great lesson.

Yes, that is the reality we see today from the perspective of most people around the city.  when in reality not all gamblers are bad addicts.  some of them do not involve anyone in their gambling activities.  and it doesn't even involve other people's finances, which often happens in the case of gambling addicts. 
However, we as gamblers cannot escape from such judgments, just do what we need to do ourselves, as long as it doesn't harm other people.  we'll be fine.
Most people view gambling as a bad thing, but that is not entirely true. Because people who gamble correctly aim for entertainment, of course they will not experience losses or other bad impacts. and with the many people who view gambling as bad because they have seen many people experience bad effects or the destruction of their lives after getting to know gambling, however with those who experience the destruction of their lives it is because of their wrong thoughts about gambling which leads them to do things that are beyond their control. the limits of his abilities.

It's true what you say, even though gambling has a bad view from most people, if we gamble without causing harm to other people then just do it, after all we do it using our own money so there's no problem, it's just that we have to have certain limits to not do excessive gambling, because with its extraordinary effects, I don't think anyone wants to experience it, only those who experience the bad effects of gambling because they lose control of themselves.

The same happens in business, because very often a person cannot correctly predict the demand for the product or service he offers on the market.

I really like this approach, because I have seen trading and casino including sports betting in some way, what I have discovered until recently is that if trading and gaming are seen as a business then things are better, why? because the mistake of many players is that if they do not make much money then they are not happy, and I think that is wrong, but if you manage to find ways to win even if it is little, then it is better because little by little you fill your bag, that for me is one of the most logical ways to make money little by little, of course from time to time you can make compound interest bets starting from 5 usd, and so see up to 3 or 4 times and that's it, but that is already a more reckless strategy, but if you see gaming as a business with small profits then it is good.

        -     There is only one thing that I saw that you really said, mate, that I agree with, and this is that the majority of people in our society do not really recognize that gambling is good; rather, they think of it as bad. And we can't blame them for this because there are many reports that families are destroyed because of gambling.

And people do a lot of bad things because of a gambling addiction that ends up in crime, robbery, and murder. But our government here had a gambling charity legally operated but helped a lot of poor people who those don't have enough payment bills for the hospital.

Yes, that is the reality we see today from the perspective of most people around the city.  when in reality not all gamblers are bad addicts.  some of them do not involve anyone in their gambling activities.  and it doesn't even involve other people's finances, which often happens in the case of gambling addicts.

You shouldn't borrow money to gamble because not only is it not recommended, it also shouldn't be done. By learning from mistakes, of course, that is a good thing. Apart from that, we also have experience to share with other people who gamble in the same way to prevent them from gambling excessively with the aim of preventing even greater losses. Even gambling will not have a bad impact if we do it well and within set limits. with many people experiencing large losses or other bad impacts because they gamble without any set limits.

That's right, that's why I like to bring my example because that was a product of my irresponsibility at that time, so in this order of ideas when you already have a family in your care where you are the only person who works for them, you can't fail, because you are the head of the family, then you have to solve it somehow, sometimes in the forum we come across a series of problems that we do not air, but somehow we can get ahead, and in those moments it's incredible the amount of things that come to you, even the forum system itself with some toxic Users also affect in some way, but the important thing about that is that you have to know how to get ahead, sometimes you have to make sacrifices just to avoid failing, that's why it's important to be responsible Above all , because in some way when you have a family, you can't fail.

The person feels guilty about the money he lost, because he realizes that he could have spent it on something that could have benefited him. Only if we go back to the moment when he has money and a choice will he most likely choose to gamble again, because gambling causes much more emotions than even buying something useful. Any gambler sooner or later feels a sense of guilt and it is quite normal, because this kind of feelings appear at the moment of realizing their mistakes.

I see some gamblers who cannot control their finances and emotions so they will be in the situation you mentioned. To be honest, I don't like someone who uses their daily grocery money or most of their salary to gamble. Especially if you are an employee and think about becoming a successful person. One must save and invest. They also have to be able to manage their finances. Especially if they already have a family. It is important to be able to manage finances and manage emotions well. I think guilt is proof that you have indeed done something wrong. You have spent all your money on gambling and you should be able to buy something useful. Start managing your finances well so you can see how much budget you have for the fun you have.

I absolutely agree with you, but I've been gambling for over 15 years and I'll be honest with you, even though I once had a hard time with gambling and alcohol, I don't regret that I ever started gambling. I believe that the more diverse experience has a person, the wiser he becomes. Experience gained in gambling may well be useful elsewhere. Many people learned about cryptocurrencies, and accordingly began to invest in this area because they were gambling, and at some point many casinos began to accept BTC.

Every player should have enough knowledge about where they invest their precious assets to gain or lose. Every step here is very important. Therefore, it is complicated to win this game without prior knowledge.

People who have become addicted to gambling in excess can never win at gambling. Every resource is valuable to every human being. Instead of losing wealth and becoming a beggar on the road, one should invest by gaining sufficient knowledge before investing.

Knowledge is important in gambling because with a valuable information, a gambler wouldn't make mistakes concerning their gambling activities. Those who get into trouble while gambling are always ignorant of responsible gambling. The ignorant players actually are the ones who bring in bad publicity to the society regarding gambling. This should also encourage the distribution of responsible gambling knowledge. That's if the society wants to reduce the rate at which people get addicted and destroy the life of their loved ones. Communicating with gamblers about the need to stay responsible and limit how they gamble, will help the new players to have prior knowledge on the game before doing deeply into gambling.
Yes, when gamblers try to achieve a goal rather than taking gambling as entertainment, gambling creates a major setback for those gamblers when they lose. A gambler then harms himself and the effect spreads to his family and, in turn, to society. Gamblers who experience harm often refer to gambling as negative. But if gamblers could practice responsible gambling, they will not considered negatively. A gambler's failure to practice responsible gambling is his own responsibility. Although gambling is not seen as positive in society, the uncontrolled gambling of some gamblers has a greater effect on society.

Any gambler sooner or later feels a sense of guilt and it is quite normal, because this kind of feelings appear at the moment of realizing their mistakes.
In that you are right, so when I was a newbie and I played a lot of dice that feeling always appeared, so when I was playing and I lost I always thought about what I could buy and that filled me with rage at myself, of course that is a thing of the past, now I do things differently, not with the same intensity, now things have changed and are seen from another point of view, a more mature point of view, where my secret is in putting up the money to lose in a casino, I don't put up more than that money because that throws everything off, so I think that all those mistakes, feelings and things that I went through helped me a lot to mature my game.
Good for you, most people don't learn from their mistakes and they keep repeating the same mistakes again and again, especially in gambling. You will often see gamblers losing a lot of money in gambling, they may feel bad about it and curse the casino and themselves due to the heat of the moment, and they might even stay away from gambling for some days, but after a few days, you will see them gambling again, and if you ask, they will smile and say they couldn't help it.

For me, I have also changed a lot. When I first started gambling long time ago, I had no control, I used to use strategies such as martingale because I used to think they work and you can recover your lost money or points by doubling your bet after each loss, it used to work sometimes, but pretty soon I realized that it is nothing more than a disaster strategy.
Basically, gambling addiction is due to failure of the person to learn from his mistakes because he is so addicted to gambling that he does not understand the right thing to do, so he is constantly addicted to gambling. In fact, when a gambler wins money once, he gambles twice as much because of his addiction to money, and at one point in time, he has no money left to repay the gamble. A gambling addict is a great danger to his family. If a family member has a gambling addiction, the family members know very well how much danger an addicted person can bring to their family.

People who consider gambling as a pleasure will definitely make financial arrangements to be able to gamble every day because it is not recommended for everyone to gamble with all their money so that they cannot enjoy delicious food and cannot support their own family. I also agree more with the advice you say because from what I have seen, some people who are starting to get addicted to gambling also have to manage their finances well before they really suffer because they experience more losses when gambling.

this is a debate that always sparks a thought for me regarding biological determinism and free will
if we can really choose or if we usually fall prey of our instincts
would love to see studies on gambling, addiction and genetics, but these are a bit hard to find.

It is indeed not recommended to use your daily spending money for gambling, because that is an action that in my opinion is considered excessive. People who gamble using money they shouldn't, such as using money for shopping or savings, of course they are people who gamble with emotions attached, because they can't control themselves well so they dare to do things they shouldn't. also because they gamble by spending all the salary they have earned, I think they gamble without being able to control themselves so they can become confused because of their own emotions which lead them to misery.
It's true what you say, it is important to be able to manage our own finances and emotions. because it determines what the future will be like, if we cannot control ourselves and our emotions then destruction or major losses cannot be avoided, this will definitely happen when there is no good self-management.

I disagree with most of what you said...

Depression and suicide, any vice is addictive, it's dopamine hits, and without the "reward" signal triggering in your brain, life is meaningless/depression. Too much, is the same thing, loss of interest/dopamine overload. The golden rule in life is balance.

Banning gambling, or regulating it more, isn't the solution, where would it end? Food, tv, games, social media, sports etc... everyone would be living like monks.


I think the solution is educating people who have addiction. For example, gambling is more addictive than other vices... but why does it affect some and not others?
Because different amounts of dopamine, look at a lot of gamblers. Those without problems are aware that it's more likely they're going to lose, and it's more about the entertainment value of risking what they can afford to lose.

Those with problems, usually have very little understanding how it works. "I've lost xx amount of times, statistically i'm gtd to win with the next bet" "I created a strategy to beat the house" "i lost 8 times straight with 50/50 odds, games are rigged" It's a pattern, It's the delusion that they're gtd to win before they even play that makes the rush so much more intense. And it's all because they gamble without fully comprehending what gambling is.

So i think the biggest problem is that most people are aware of these issues, you mentioned, And some people will say it's bad, or support the habit. But no one explains the importance that it's only a form of entertainment, not a quick easy way to get rich. Esp in America, you will hear about a dozen lottery winners before you hear a story about someone losing their house.

 I know the majority of people see addicts as the "victims" and some blame the providers.
But you don't become a gambling addict after one game, there are few things that make you instantly hooked. And gambling is not it. You're fully aware if you like something "too much"
Or to put it simply, everyone is aware they're going to have a problem before they actually have the problem. If ignoring these signs results in domestic abuse, making your family homeless, or assault. The issue isn't that gambling is allowed, it's the mentally weak pos hitting their partner.

A "hobby","entertainment","fun" is exactly how everyone should view gambling, ive never met anyone with a gambling addiction, who didn't think they couldn't beat the house or get rich. That's the issue.

Gambling can affect self-esteem, relationship's, physical and mental health,work performance and social life. It can harm not only the person who gambles but also the family, friends, workplaces and communities.

So with all this I think if they put an restrictions on gambling it's not a bad idea at all, first why is gambling a problem?

Gambling can stimulate the brain's rewards system much like drugs or alcohol can, leading to addiction. If you have a problem with compulsive gambling, you may continually chase bets that lead to losses, use up savings and create debt.

You may hide your behavior and even turn to theft or fraud to support your addiction. So with my conclusion and my observation towards this gambling is really cousin harm to the life of those ones who are addicted to it most their families.

 Secondly what are the social problem caused by gambling?
(1) Depression and suicide
(2) bankruptcy, family-break up
(3) domestic abuse
(4) assault, fraud
(5) theft, and even homeless
Addiction to gambling is link to a range of serious personal and social harm such as those things I mentioned. These effects can be devastating to the individual as well as their friends, family, workplaces and community.

This are the harms and with all this are the reasons why, they see people who gambles as a distraction towards the society and the most people who are into all this are the addicted ones. So how is gambling harmful to the society, ills associate with problem gamblers are widespread and often go beyond and addition to gambling.

People who gambles can be at risk of this following categories of harm.
(1) Financial harms
(2) Erosion of savings
(3) Filling for bankruptcy
(4) Relationship conflicts
(5) Neglect of relationship with significant other
(6) Neglect of relationship with children
(7) Extend family and friends
(Cool Social isolation
(9) Emotional or psychological distress

So I don't really blame the people who sees gambling as a bad thing to the society, meanwhile If the younger ones take of the steps of being addicted don't you think they'll experience all this as well. So gambling it's bad to the society nevertheless it's also helping in the other hands, to ones which are benefiting and earning from it.

What is the mindset of a gambler? On my opinion pathological gamblers play the cope with a life stresses. Near-misses and personal choice give some gamblers a sense of control, winning money. Others believe they can beat the casino and win real money.

So the mindset are those things that attract harm to them and the society because they are focused on the money, and that's why I said it's also helping some people in other hands and it's also killing some people right now in the society. Behavior also involves that makes it look bad to the society, while trying to get back lost money by gambling more( chasing losses) lying to family members or other to hide the extent of your gambling.

Risking or losing important relationships, a job, or school or work opportunities because of gambling. Asking others to bail you out of financial trouble cause you have gambled money away.

So what I'm trying to conclude is that gambling isn't something you should take as a hobby or as a means of earning just to make a living. So what are your thoughts?

You have many things that's been triggered by excessive gambling, gambling is social activity as such it is not suppose to be bad to the society, is just that the excess of it thats frowned at, gambling sites has put up minimum wage for individual gambler which starts from 18years, i believe that the reason for this age stuff is to prevent the underage to engage themselves in gambling as adulthood satrts from 18, every adult knows what is good and bad unless the ones that allows what they do to control them.
On a general note, gambling triggers addiction which is very risky to humans in general that's why it advisable for individual that doesn't have self control not to be involved, safe control is what every gambler need to overcome addiction, once a gambler conquers addiction, then he or she is good to go, athough i have never seen gambling as a hobby but the fact still remains that it is a social engagement that needs individual carefulness to be part of it.

I realized a long time ago that if a person doesn't limit themselves, it can lead to problems and this doesn't just apply to gambling. I had a lot of negative experiences in my life and it lasted until I learned to limit myself. Restrictions though deprive me of some desires, but in my opinion they bring more benefits and save not only my money, but also my health. Limit your gambling and then it won't develop into any problems.

The consequences of irresponsible gambling is very high and it can make the addict look unkept like someone insane. This is why as a gambler, you should be able to have prevention measures on addiction in order to gamble happily and enjoy the fun in gambling. I agree with every points that you highlighted, but the problems lies on the people who see gambling as a means of making profit, and they will go at extra miles to make sure that they continue gambling even though they are running at big loss. Such people needs to quit gambling and go on a long break, if not they are doing more harm to themselves. If most gamblers can key into the rules of gambling and only gamble for fun, we will have less gambling related problems in the society.
When a gambler becomes addicted to gambling then no sense of responsibility will work in him as he gambles irresponsibly due to which he loses a lot of money and returns home empty handed. If a responsible person takes to gambling, he would never gamble irresponsibly. There are thousands of families who suffer the consequences of gambling addiction. Gambling addiction is a bad habit that puts people in danger. When a person becomes addicted to gambling, they gamble until they lose all the cash they have. There are also cases where gambling is seen every day and he has no money left to repay till the end he has to pay his debts with his life so everyone should refrain from this kind of dangerous gambling.

A gambler then harms himself and the effect spreads to his family and, in turn, to society. Gamblers who experience harm often refer to gambling as negative. But if gamblers could practice responsible gambling, they will not considered negatively. A gambler's failure to practice responsible gambling is his own responsibility. Although gambling is not seen as positive in society, the uncontrolled gambling of some gamblers has a greater effect on society.
This is something that is being lost on society today, whenever we find out that a person is behaving in a way that is antisocial, the first thing that many people do today is to try to find a third party to blame, when most of the time, the only one that is responsible for the way their life is going on is that person.

So people learn that no matter what they do, they are never at fault and this is a dangerous attitude to hold, since those people will never learn to take responsibility for their actions and will blame anyone for their lack of self-control when they gamble, when they are the only ones that can stop themselves and change for the better.
That's because searching for other people mistakes is easier and no needs to takes too long. They can start blaming that person and even judge with many bad words. When someone playing gambling, he must takes responsibility for himself so that will not impact to the society arounds him and no one will follows him for playing gambling without moderation.

If more people follows what he did by playing gambling excessively and only wants to make money, that can makes them feels sad because they may lose much money. If their lose makes them become temper and effects to their relationships circle and their society, they will gets a bad assessment from their society. Their society will gets the effects of some people who treat gambling with wrong.

Yeah, the thing is that if you live your life with a mental view that everything is your own fault, then you can actually change your behavior and therefore change your world.

If you assume someone else is responsible of your life, then you will have a hard time trying to change other person, hint, you can't.

So, in any way, I think it is better to think it is your responsibility, even if it doesn't seem like it.
