Topic: Know when to stop - page 14. (Read 4606 times)

Yes, but most of the time gambling with all the money you have is an action taken by gambling addicts, no other than because when you have entered the addiction phase, you have a higher sense of interest and curiosity than other gamblers, especially those who have not entered the addiction phase, But yes I also understand that this action is not only done by gamblers who are already addicted to me, but I think gamblers who are not addicted to doing that or gambling with the entire amount of budget they have is nothing more than their goal is just to experiment to find out whether they can really get lucky by using a large budget or the same. But sometimes there are also those who really get lucky when they use a large amount of budget but it is very rare.

I agree with you that I can't spend too much time gambling, it's not that I don't want to or I don't have the money but certainly I'm quite bored if I play for too long, on the other hand I never gamble for more than 1 hour whether it's gambling in an online or physical casino. On the other hand, I think I would conclude that those who spend too much time gambling are addicted gamblers.

It is bad for any gambler to enter the gambling house or bet through online apps without having any budget or plans, such will just be gambling with no control. Although I do not blame those who are gambling more, those who I blame are those that are just being controlled by it and do not have any basis for it. They are such that will continue to gamble without any calculations set in place to caution them. Such can be wasting money and becoming irresponsible in gambling.

Do you also think gambling the next day is the solution? It is not, it is all about the plans for the day, week, month, and even the year. If such exhausts it, it will take the next one before gambling should be made possible if such is strict about it.


Are you for real? Setting a time limit for gambling is not so cool with me.

I believe that gamblers should have their differences, the ways that will keep it their own pattern and not other's pattern. What works for me might not work for you, so that 1 hour is not a solution but our expertise and plans towards it. Also, it depends on the kind of game we are playing. Some will even take more than the 1 hour to get the whole games prepared.

What I think about this is that it is not always about addiction that makes a gambler gambling with all the money he has left with nothing before they can stop and go home. Some persons just have that feeling of using the last cash at hand to try their luck and it's funny at times (not most of the times) that the last cash trial could just be a saving grace for the gambler making a winning that puts him in recovery feat.

Spending so much time in the gamble house is not my thing though and I don't understand how those other people that spend the whole of their day in gamble house staking one game to another feel about their habit, or maybe they are without a job and just want to keep self busy spending the whole time there. I don't know.

Continue gambling until your money is finish in the gambling center before you can stop gambling, show that addicted to gambling is not far from such gamblers because the best way to gamble is to gamble and still remain some money to gamble another day.

If you want to make huge amount of money from gambling, don't spend more than 1 hours in the gambling center either winning or loosing because, the more time you spend in the gambling center, it can lead you to borrow money to gamble and it will make you regret.

Learning about gambling is learning about ourselves. People are wired for excitement and chase. The thrill is the same whether you win or lose. Real crux? Self-control. Without it, you're a leaf shaken by the wind. Prevention beats cure. But how many realize it before it's too late? Knowing when to stop isn't enough; you need the strength to do it. Honestly, that strength? It's rare. This win-lose cycle is brutal because of that. It exploits hope, greed, and desperation

So, the answer? Education, awareness, and most importantly, support. Stop praising the win and start emphasizing the cost: financially, emotionally, psychologically. Gambling reflects our deepest aspirations and concerns, not just a game. Realize it, and maybe you'll find the will to escape

Not only when they experience consecutive losses, I even think that when they win, they also can't stop gambling because they might still want to get a bigger win. However, of course the losing factor still dominates, so even though they have won and are still gambling, that doesn't mean there is no loss. defeat is still there and will even be more painful when the victory that has been obtained is lost again, because of careless actions that only think about victory, not thinking about the defeat that will definitely happen.

When gambling ends in defeat or victory, the factor of not being able to stop gambling is real, they will not be able to stop gambling if they do not have a good understanding of gambling. I agree with you, gambling is not a place to make money for sure. Therefore, when you win or lose, you should be aware and know when to stop gambling or take a break, don't gamble continuously which can result in big losses. Prevention is better than cure, that's what's important. because if you are addicted it will be difficult to recover.

Well, I think the thing is, it's all about luck, luck and nothing else but luck, I have come across gamblers who lost everything, then again, made another deposit and continued gambling, and they ended up winning back all the money they previously lost, and even ended that gambling session with a good profit.
In gambling, it's important for us to know that, loses don't continue and last for ever, and that a second or minute is capable of turning what was initially a long losing streak to a life changing wins, I guess this is what keeps those gamblers who know this; going, for they believe that at any point in time, things could turn around for their good, and fortunately, it does most times turn for some gamblers, but unfortunately for some, it ends as a continues loss.

What I personally have stopped doing is blame gamblers for not quitting when they were losing and losing and losing, for if the situation was the other way round, like they lost but didn't give up, and eventually won, I would call them heros for not giving up,  why them should I blame the one who did exactly the same thing (not giving up) but only ended up in more loses because luck wasn't on his side?

a losing streak can always be the main cause for gamblers who lose control and will ignore stopping gambling at the right time because a losing streak triggers very high emotions and anyone will definitely be tempted to try gambling again and at that time a gambler already has a mindset what is wrong is that he should not have done this because gambling is just a game that can entertain oneself and does not need to be pursued even if it is a losing streak.
and all of this also has other causes, such as gambling with money that he cannot afford to lose, so that when a losing streak uses up his budget, he will definitely continue to chase his losses depositing some more money after losing and regretting it.

at the time of regret, all gamblers must think why didn't I stop betting instead of chasing losses until they lost more and it is at the time of regret that gamblers have awareness because their emotions have started to decline after losing more money and they only have the thought that it is very important to stop gambling when they lose continuously.

If everyone do knows on when to stop specially when losing then we wont really be seeing this gambling field to be so much profitable into those platform owners or simply their numbers wont really be that as big on what we are seeing now.It is really just that it did really do the opposite thing on where people do easily lose that control and doesnt know on when to stop due to that gambling urge
and influx of emotions on which it is really that normal for a human being to have those reactions since we do love money and losing money is never been giving that good feeling.
Once you do become that impulsive then this is where decisions changes.

Even if you do say that you would be stopping once you do reach up your threshold but it wont really be something to be finalized
because once you do know that you do still have money to spare then its likely you would really be making more deposits.

Playing gambling must have carefully because if you can't, you will face much losses that you don't want to see. But many gamblers can't stop themselves from playing gambling game after getting losing streak. They are trigger to continue playing gambling using more money but they end up by losing much money. Actually, after they experiencing a losing streak, they can realize the situation and must stop gambling. It's better they leave the casino rather than losing more.

That will not worth to do because they can't use gambling as it was and only want to get winning. They should already know that it will not work because gambling is not a place to make money but only a place to play many games using money. That's why we need to learn self-control so we don't get deeper in the gambling like the other gamblers.

The best aspect of therapy is interpersonal relationship. A gambler who meets a close friend for help, will easily listen to the person and adapt to a new lifestyle. More like a peer pressure or influence. It's crucial for a gambler to trace back to those people whom he had good relationship with, and they'll help him laugh out his pains, by telling him old stories, and reminding him of his personality as a younger person in life. Those memories help to recuperate the brain and puts the player to thoughts, and rethink about himself. Asking himself questions like why he's changed really quick.

The only strong barrier is that the gambler will not realize meeting his old time or childhood friends can help him. Gambling addiction convinces the victim that nobody can help him not even the therapist. They tend to resist any form of help. The healing only starts when the addict decides to change, then his senses can direct him to a therapist or a friend who is willing to help him out of the trouble. One good thing, they are people, genuine, who are indeed ready to help a friend or family member out of their struggle. They are always right there by the corner, receiving lots of resistance from the victim, but they keep persisting, until the addict gives in that he actually needs help and is in a huge trouble.

When we gamble and are very excited I think it also triggers those who gamble with enthusiasm so it is not easy to stop, and maybe with the enthusiasm they have, they can do gambling which may even be done every day. And in my opinion, too much enthusiasm for gambling can also be a problem, of course, with the fact that gambling will only give defeat, of course it can trigger emotions, if you often gamble, you are sure to lose often and can make us angry like you said. I agree with you, indeed controlling emotions is difficult, especially facing things that can have the opportunity to profit, of course, we can lose control when we don't get benefits. But if it can be controlled properly, maybe big losses or other problems will not occur. It's just that many gamblers cannot control themselves when gambling.

I agree with you, gambling should be done with money that is already willing to lose because it will definitely happen in gambling, losing money and defeat is something that will definitely happen with us doing gambling. But if we are not ready to lose or lose the money that is bet, we should not gamble because it can trigger us to deposit money back into gambling, the bensr that you said the money in the casino must be guarded and not to think like that, because rather than inviting problems, it is better to find safety. We should not spend money uncontrollably, because that is a disaster. Do not gamble with a loss of self-control that can lose a lot of money in a small amount. Because the truth is that we gamble to win, even though there are those who gamble with pleasure but I am sure in their hearts there must be a desire to win not always wanting defeat. Therefore,  as much as possible we must be able to protect the money that is placed even though it will definitely be lost, but there is nothing wrong with us being able to protect the money that is placed.

I agree with you, games of chance, casino games, anything that has to do with chance, by pure inspection will always be exciting, and that is what makes it look like that type of entertainment concept, for that reason When we go to a casino it doesn't hurt to make a plan, because it is the best, remember that here what we are dealing with is money and what we will be risking is money, and what we are looking to win is more money, so since this is so delicate and everything that is money indicates that you must bring your effort, because it does not hurt to make a good plan, but not a plan that is about how to play, no, that is sometimes a lot of luck and sometimes luck+skill, yes If we put these two things together we are capable of doing something very good to protect ourselves, if all we need is for our money in a casino to work, not to be spent, a plan is necessary, because if we play in an uncontrolled way two scenarios may occur. , that we win and leave with our pockets full, which very rarely happens, almost never, but if we lose we have to accept and still leave with the satisfaction that we did well.

In this case, we can make a plan with our money, and our handbrake is money, if we have 400usd in our pocket, we will only risk 50usd, and from there no more, with that 50usd it is the money ready to lose , which means that those 50usd will not be needed later, that is what must be established, and respect that if they are lost then not put more money, that is the healthiest way to stop, and not to fall into addiction.

I know that there are players who experience other types of things, such as self-control, or entering and betting several times and when they reach a certain amount they will not play anymore, but sometimes that is a double-edged sword because if we do it that way we will still be to spend much more.

The problem starts when people think that since people keep saying that games should be seen as fun, then there is only gambling as the only option to have fun. when a person is playing every day, then that person is no longer playing for fun, when a person is playing every month then that person is no longer playing for fun, that person is already placing himself in a position as a professional player, and when you put yourself in the position of a professional player in a market where you don't make a profit, you just lose and only rare cases of people who have had great luck and who have managed to stop playing while making profits, then this person who started playing as a professional sooner or later would be frustrated

I have already given many examples of this, of people who, when the end of the month arrives, take their salary, pay all the bills and then leave the money earmarked for fun, but in that part earmarked for fun, that person is unable to separate it and see other entertainment options, like going to the beach, traveling, going to the park, going to watch football, basketball, tennis... this person just keeps looking at games as the only option to have fun, when this happens the person plays and loses, gets irritated, she plays again and loses and gets angry. She starts chasing losses and loses even more, becomes addicted, loses her job and ends up with a lot of debt and ends up in jail. This is the end of many people who abuse games

The most important thing that all people should be aware of is that when they say that games should be seen as fun, they are not saying that people should play every day and forget that there are other good things in the real world that can be done and They are fun, rich people who play games rarely become addicted to games because they have many other things to have fun with, I always say that. When people are happy, they rarely become addicted to gambling, and they are people who play with a lot of money, but they don't get depressed when they lose because they have good bankroll management and they know that there are other things to have fun besides games.

The main thing that we should be controlling is our emotions because once our emotions is on high level then our thinking would really be definitely be gets affected and this would really be resulting on having no control or losing up that reasoning and assessing such situation whether you are already doing the bad or good thing.Knowing on when to stop might sounds very basic or simple to be done but when you are
on such condition then this is where things turns out to be hard because it is really that something that you cant really be able to make yourself make such direct decision because there would really be moments or times that you would be still having the urge to gambler more whether you are on losing or winning side. As long you do know that you do still have funds into your pocket then you would really be continuing to play.

Exactly for this reason I say that we cannot control our emotions, when we are advancing in our game and we start to feel that we are doing things right , we get more excited, we do not have more optimism and that optimism is not good, first because It is one of the ways we have to make ourselves more susceptible, our Morality is at stake, if we win, because we feel invincible, if we lose we begin to experience feelings of rage, of impotence, of repentance and of things that are not good, so generally negative, for me it is very difficult to control emotions because sometimes they are what makes us more human, for that reason it is more reliable to control what we can control, it is money, we can control that with a good plan we do it well.

It is this order of days that we can conclude that when we have money that is willing to lose because it is the most efficient way to do things better , we can control only that, but as long as we play with money that is willing to lose our emotions can come out. from the heart if you want, only with the proviso that when the money destined to be lost runs out, because it was lost, we have the maturity to Accept it, and not to deposit more, because if we break that rule, we simply have not done nothing, we will spend uncontrollably, we will lose control of the money, the Emissions and that can result in it but, as in addiction , loss of our money, and that is a total disaster , we should not think like that, but in an efficient way , money in a casino must be taken care of , because it is the only thing that makes us have life there , without money we are nothing in a Casino.

Gambling can indeed bring problems that can harm us, what's more, we ourselves cannot control ourselves or control our emotions, because the gambling we do can trigger our emotions. By gambling and being prepared to lose the money you bet is quite a good thing to do, because it will also determine us in the future. With this, maybe addiction will not happen, because not being ready to lose the money you bet can trigger us to become addicted, that's the strategy. This may be enough to implement in order to avoid losses. It's true what you say, we all have our own way of stopping, but in my opinion, the time to stop is the same, when you win or lose.

In my opinion, everyone will definitely do what is best for themselves including gambling. They can do what is best according to themselves but sometimes the best thing is only detrimental. And I think even someone who is not stingy will become stingy when they get to know gambling because it is very likely that they will only use their money on gambling.

If in fact one of the keys for us to be able to perform better is to have the best self-knowledge, but in part if this does not occur in the very difficult person who can achieve it, I no longer live by being self-controlled, just by putting my money Being prepared to lose is enough, it is very difficult to be able to control the emotions, it is very difficult because we are people whose emotions sometimes lead us to make decisions with a certain ease, in this aspect I am a person who will always allocate my money that way. Well, if they used that strategy, the addiction would not exist.

But to be clearer, each of us has a method to stop in the game , either When you see that you will run out of money and the fact of having a family , or the Fact of running out of money and not having to buy your things later Basics , that is something that We have and that Everyone Knows their pocket and knows how far they can go.

But going beyond the degree of responsibility is something that Cannot be Allowed , that is , we are people who must generate more ways to do Things better We know that if money can be lost in the casino, then why bet and risk ? so much ? A person who is stingy does not play in a casino, very difficult, but why does a stingy person not play? Because your money hurts and if your money hurts you won't play for anything in the World , sometimes each person has their own way, it is very difficult to show that there is a Method to Stop  , each person has their own very different way of thinking.

Yes at that time I tried as much as possible to convince my friend that what he saw was nothing more than a temptation that looked tempting but he would not find the same thing when he tried it himself, fortunately at that time my friend's situation was still in a normal situation or I mean he was in a good enough consciousness so that he could finally believe in some fairly reasonable ideas from me. but if he was in a drunken state like you said then maybe yes he would force me but still I would  never give him a way to realize his wishes by not giving him a loan at all, but maybe it was still possible to happen to finally believe in some fairly reasonable ideas from me, but if he was drunk like you said then maybe yes he would force me but still I would never give  him a way to realize his desire by not giving him a loan at all, but maybe it's still a thing that can happen to eventually try to do it to someone else or borrow from someone other than me.

True, what the stremers or influencers are doing does look quite natural and they are doing the views well and I think what they are doing is natural because their main purpose is to promote some sites so the influencers or stremers  are doing the views while creating an atmosphere that makes most viewers quite comfortable but without knowing that it is their marketing trick so that more people are interested and follow the way they do through the affiliate links that are shared.

For my friend honestly until now I still give him some advice and direction along with explaining that the winnings that the stremers or influencers get that look tantalizing are actually not real winnings, but nothing more because the casinos they promote have arranged everything behind the scenes and he also said that as long as he gambled he never got such good winnings that in the end he believed that what was done by influencers and stremers was nothing more than manipulation.

Every gamblers who can feels they have greed must be able to suppress it so that they don't fall deeper into gambling and end up by causing problems for themselves. They must realize that greed will not be able to help them win from gambling because greed will only give them losses which will be more than they can imagine. They will not be able to recover their losses easily because it will only increase the number of losses even more until they become addicted to gambling.

Regret will come last when they can realize that what they did was wrong and must be gotten rid of immediately before they lose all their money due to greed.
Gamblers who continuously try to recover all their losses will only feel their losses increasing so much that they will not be able to see their many losses. But gamblers who realize their mistake and fix it will not face much losses because they see how to prevent much losses.
