Recognizing the signs that it's time to walk away is important to prevent emotional and financial losses. Knowing when to stop requires self awareness, discipline, and recognizing when gambling is no longer enjoyable and sustainable. Knowing signs will help you set clear limits and help you gamble responsibly.

Your explanation makes sense. However, what I mean is friends who are fellow gamblers or people we really trust. so there is nothing to worry about. let alone just reminding you if you have exceeded the limit.
because if I had responded previously, it would have been because I couldn't control myself enough to stop playing.

That last part of your statement is something that needed to think about, bringing companion may lead you to blame that person if you lose your money and it will be another reason for you to try to keep pushing as you wanted to recover again the amount that you loss, from that stand point of view, you may break your tie with the person and not only gambling will be the problem but adding the problem with a friend or a companion that you bring to play with you.


Yeah, when the apetite to gambling got increase that's the beginning of having a big problem, you will be breaking the balance and that's the saddess things to happen as it will open the door for addiction to dominate you, having that right mindset and good control of your emotion definitely helps to avoid such things to happen.

Gambling is game, it have to do with the necessary runs in the system, not minding what's at stake but preached to ourselves to maintain discipline in the market. It become hardened the moment we master how tough and dominant we can be, we don't fall for lesser threats but keen on opening up our mind to take higher risks. Gambling is fun especially when you're milking the system and it does comes very easy for the big winnings. But when it comes to losing ends, we don't always apply our initiative because we become panic about the losses.

It is not a bad solution but it is not a good one either, this is similar to what we see when a person is selected as the designated driver and does not drink in order to have at least one person being able to drive and not cause any accidents related to alcohol, but this causes indulgence in people, as if there is such a person in their group, they feel they can drink as much as they want and someone will be there to drive them home or even take care of them, but back to your example, what will happen the day that person cannot come with you and you still decide to gamble? Since you have not learned how to control yourself then it is likely that you will bet a lot that day, and you may even blame that person for not being there with you when you needed them, when in fact the whole thing will be your fault for not being a responsible gambler.

Self-control during gambling is something to strive for absolutely every gambler. A real thrill can be obtained not only from winning, but also from the fact that you were able to leave the game after winning. And it is not so important how big a win you got. Gambling is primarily a game in which we fight with ourselves. If you do not learn to beat yourself, you will never win. This applies not only to gambling, but also to other areas of our lives.

Well, I like that approach, having a time limit to play seems very good to me, in the case that we are people who can try this strategy it Wouldn't be bad at all, when I was new I did have the errors that you mentioned, I played with a lot of money and when we lost I felt really bad, I didn't even want to see the game of aar anymore, I always played a lot at dice, and I felt like I Understood the game well, and that I could predict my way of playing to win, then I changed the method and started having more losses, so from that Moment on I learned that gambling has to be very careful, you have to have absolute control of the money and never Have all the money because if you lose it is Something painful.

Sometimes it is difficult for us to be able to recover the money we Have out there risking, but it is also easy that in a moment of having good luck we can win Big , only Because I Learned that how much you earn and it is something respectable to withdraw, you have to do it If you lose, have the maturity to accept it and assume the loss, but what I have been able to Draw the most is that even online casinos have to be treated like an offline or physical casino, every Money that is left Must be Extracted, Remove , it is not good to Leave it there.

Is there really someone who would really be doing it? Not unless if its your best friend or someone whom you do know then they could be able to play along side with you and trying out to make yourself that being remind
in regarding about your spending towards gambling. Its good if you do have this kind of buddy but if not then you wouldnt really be able to stop. Actually it would really be just that enough if you are the ones who do
completely be able to stop yourself on the time that you do play gambling on which you would really be needing no one to tell you on what you should gonna do. It is really just that there are people
who do fails on controlling themselves on the time that they do play gambling.

Knowing on when to stop? This is something that would really be crucial or needed because if you do fail on doing so then you would definitely be having those issues
later wards or on the time that you would really be experiencing those consequences on which you didnt thought that it could happen.

Well, that's one way to do it, it would be interesting to be able to do it, of course what you say is logical, if I bet little money, I will manage my emotions easier, because it is insignificant money and this could produce much more security in the person, then as If that's working, do you think that if I put more money to bet, my emotions will be more neutralized? you've made it? because I have used methods for counting emotions many times and it is very difficult for me to control, I think it is almost impossible, but that is why I prefer to control my money and leave my emotions on the surface, so that they manifest themselves in all their expressions, but when The time I have to play is over, because that's where the party ends, and with that I don't hold back at all and I enjoy it, I even enjoy it even if I lose.

Where can I make an example of this in sports betting, I give my money and wait for the result, of course there are other modes of sports betting where the player has the right or can change his bet if he considers it necessary, although I am not one of that either. type of player, but I think it's because I mix the emotions a lot, maybe that's why it's difficult for me to control them.

The management of emcoins is a clear example that if we manage to control it we will have many things to do well and without suffering much, sometimes this can control our entire body, heart and all associated organs.

if you are one of those people who can't stop and want to keep gambling to chase losses. It's better if you invite a companion when gambling. not for playing together, but just as a reminder not to overdo it.
So like this, when you have experienced quite a lot of losses and have exceeded your loss limit, you can tell your friends to remind you to stop immediately. That way you can still control your game and not keep chasing defeat which will later become a downturn

Yes, in other words, it means that firstly we have to bet with an amount of money that we are prepared to lose, and secondly we have to be able to accept the final result of a bet we place or a game we play.

Losing and winning in gambling or betting is a normal thing, but not everyone is able to accept defeat. Especially for those who gamble beyond their budget and are ready to lose, the loss they experience becomes very painful, and even makes them feel frustrated about the results of the gamble. Therefore, it is quite important to always ensure that the gambling we do is well controlled, implementing budget limits and playing time limits. Setting a budget limit, this serves so that we are always able to ensure that the strategy only gambles on the amount that we are prepared to lose, so that we will always feel relieved even if the end result is losing, and apart from that this can also help us to prevent a significant loss occurred. Meanwhile, by implementing a playing time limit, apart from this it can prevent us from getting too carried away with gambling and can also prevent us from endless gambling, this can also help us maintain the balance of our lives, so that the gambling activities we do does not become an inhibiting factor for other more important activities.

You're right but some people don't know when to stop, reason is because they don't know the implications of gambling, they keep gambling more often hoping to recover from there loses without knowing that the more they keep chasing after there  lost that's the more they keep losing more money.

Emotions can actually be well managed and properly put in place when gambling. The first step in managing emotions is in ensuring you gamble with an insignificant amount, I mean an amount that cannot wake you up from sleep. There have been times that I ever forgot I have some games running, this shows the money I put in was not what I need for anything serious, just a little fraction that I can let go or will not be bothered if it did not work. This way, my emotion is not tied to the gambling because I can move on easily after loss. If you have had series of painful losses, you will understand why it is important to gamble responsibly.

Really good points but probably much easier said than done
What do you think are some good strategies and tools to be able to enforce your rules and stop when these things start to happen if the person has trouble trying to control him/herself

Well, it's true, I also think that the secret is in discipline and knowing how to manage your money very well, why the emotions? That is a lie. It is almost impossible to manage emcoins. We are human beings and it is very difficult to manage such things.

I would also think that one way to be able to control or determine oneself is that the person has previously been subjected to strong things and that they have marked them for the worse. There are no worse things that people can or want to experience again, which is what should be avoided. .

Another way to stop is for the person to understand that if they become addicted they will lose not only money, but friends, family, everything, because there will come a way in which they will not be able to control themselves and that is what will lead them to an almost lost life, and in That's really not nice.

For many of us it may be easy to control money and have discipline, but for those who cannot control money or have discipline, they have to do other things with greater control. I would say that the only way to stop is to put money ready to lose. And now, if you lose it, then there's nothing to do, it's lost, and if the money multiplies, well, good luck, but if you lose, you should never deposit more money or anything, because breaking our own rules is the first sign of not being able to stop, so discipline is what you should have or acquire quickly.

When it comes to self control then this would really be actually varying into someones control and discipline. Results and outcomes would really be that reflecting into someones decisions whether they would really be continuing or not when it comes to their gambling dealing. Not all would really be having that kind of control on which it would really be causing for those disasters to happen due to lack of control.

People wont really be stopping not until that they would really be having into those conditions on which they havent been able to realize that if they wasnt been able to deal up with much
then it wont really be happening on them but on the time that it is really that something that they are experiencing then this is where self realizations would really be kicking in
and this is on the time that you would really be stopping on which this is something that you should have done earlier.

Knowing on when to stop which does shows or reflects on how discipline you are or having that good control on the things that you are dealing up with.

Op this is actually a good decision making process for every gambler but it is not easy as you are saying it .There is spirit that comes when you are winning ,the spirit encourages you to continue that there are chances of you to win more and that innate idea gladdens your moral to stake more bets .

Again same thing applies when you are losing the spirit will also encourage you to continue trying so you can reinstate the money that you have lost. with this i will sincerely say that it is not their fault and not in their normal state to stop .

for instance , i have seen an addicted gambler that was playing snooker with his follow gamblers ,he won all their money and instead of him to leave the place he still borrowed them money back just to continue playing ,thus it takes self control and total avoidance to stop gambling because i dont think that there will be any alternative measures to quench their addiction.

Gambling can be a seductive siren, beckoning with the promise of excitement and a quick fix. It's a dance between pleasure and peril that can be difficult to resist. The dopamine rush associated with gambling is like a biological siren song. It activates the brain's reward system, making us crave that feeling repeatedly. This, coupled with the thrill of the chase and the suspense of the outcome, creates a powerful psychological allure, often clouding our judgment.

We fall into the trap of magical thinking, believing we can "beat the system" or "win back our losses." This delusional optimism, fueled by past wins or the stories of others, blinds us to the harsh realities of gambling. Sometimes, gambling becomes a coping mechanism, a way to escape the stress and pressures of life. It offers a temporary reprieve, a moment of distraction from harsh truths. However, this escape comes at a heavy cost, further exacerbating problems and harming our well-being.

The social and cultural context can also play a significant role. In certain communities, gambling might be normalized, making it harder for individuals to recognize the warning signs of addiction. Peer pressure and the glamorization of gambling can further silence internal doubts and prevent one from seeking help.

What he says is very true, and it is very easy to tell him that doing it because it is easy for anyone to say and have to do, but something else is what we live, or that we are there in the casino suffering from these types of events, me personally I have always said, when we were here from the side, many see the bulls from the sidelines, but others have suffered or are suffering from this problem, some want to stop, but they can't, but it is so difficult to change a person's mind. Telling them not to do it other than it is for their own good, they will not do it, they have to find other ways of doing things, that is what professionals are for, like psychologists, like psychiatrists, these types of pre-professionals and they can help a lot in better detail. to an person with addiction, and when you can't stop it is because there is possibly an associated Sddiction , they just don't say it, for that reason how to stop is the great unknown, for some it is very difficult to Stop.

Addictions bring many Problems, it is something that we Cannot avoid , if a person is like this I think that one of the things for which they can fight to achieve Something and start doing all the things, for example to do something to protect themselves , that he Gets tired of his Body , that he gets tired so that he forces himself to rest and sleep, and does not give him time to be in that addiction, perhaps sharing with the family, doing many things that take him away from the desire to play, for that reason It is because we must be very Conscious and tactful at times to say something here, to be able to stop a game of chance is not easy, I would like it to be easy, but each person has priorities under which they cannot fail, it may be the family, work, one's own well-being, excessive gaming, one has to buy something, or something, one should not Stop at once, but rather have gaming Sessions much less than one normally does, which Slows down the money flow, time expenditure and Addiction.

Yes, awareness of what gambling activities actually are must be really remembered and stored carefully in the brain, not only that because we also really need to apply strictness to awareness, none other than because gambling can stimulate the human brain and mind, which sometimes Even though you have a correct understanding of gambling, you also know that there are possible risks that can occur at any time, but sometimes there are always situations where you can forget all the limits you have made as a result of the understanding you have about gambling, this is in because as I said above, gambling is a stimulating activity, there are lots of things that look tempting there and this means that if we don't put firmness in maintaining awareness then it is clearly possible for you to fall into or be carried away by the current situation. is actually nothing more than a trap.

Knowing when to pull over? in fact it is easier to say than to do, it is not that easy to completely ignore a place that provides an opportunity to make money, even though basically the chance of winning is nothing more than a "possibility" but unfortunately most gamblers are trapped in their own expectations which ultimately give rise to beliefs so high that even they do not hesitate to carry out some too “serious” actions in a place that only provides “possibilities” and not “certainties”, in conclusion, it is the misunderstanding that is the problem.
