Topic: Know when to stop - page 8. (Read 4606 times)

Running out of money will not make them stop gambling because people who are very addicted to gambling will use any means to get money. As long as they still have assets that can be sold, they will sell whatever they get, the important thing is that they can get it. more money to gamble.
The addictive nature of gambling that has entered a person will be very difficult to get rid of. Some are even worse because they suffer losses and have a lot of debt because of gambling. They prefer to end their lives because they will feel depressed when they are addicted to gambling.

That's the problem as long as the people who supports them continue to provide their needs the chance of changing their paths is more likely next to impossible,  they already been dominated by the addiction inside them and they just wanted to keep pleasing that desire to continue playing,  I know someone who have similar situation but not as like what you share, just a individual who lean on his parents abroad and continue using the money he got to bet on a sport gambling sometimes he wins but most of the time he'll lose and the cycle continues just leaning everything to his parents without knowing or intending to stop.

Yes, maybe the problem is because they get money without working. that's what makes them seem to feel calm about losing money every day because there is money that will be sent to them.
I can't imagine how bad a family like that would be. but hopefully, that doesn't happen to my family. The family may become more responsible in gambling when they no longer receive enough money to live and gamble. so they should probably realize that using their money to eat would be more important than gambling blindly.

If the question is which more people gamble without applying limits and controls with people who have limits and are able to control their gambling activities then maybe I will agree with the opinion of everyone here that most gamblers are involved without being able to control their gambling activities but they are the ones who are controlled by gambling in the record of treating gambling in a way that is not recommended. On the other hand I am not saying that there are no gamblers who are able to control their gambling but it is probably very rare for people to be able to do that because most of them are too focused on the chances of winning that they even go to the extent of justifying all means to pursue something that basically does not have any certainty and guarantee.

Like what you said about some people going to the casino where they come only for a few times and not to spend all the money they have, and this is the approach to healthy gambling where there is no element of excess. The point is that if the gambler is able to control the gambling activity properly and knows when to paddle and when to stop then it is those who are able to control their gambling properly or can also be called responsible gamblers. But on the other hand yes even if they are responsible it will not be able to completely rule out them from bad possibilities such as addiction over time, we don't know.

That's the definition of a gambling addict.

I know a family who does that. The mother, the father, and their son. They have a session every noon until before it goes dark playing cards with their neighborhood and it happens on a daily basis like it is their job.
Sadly, most of the time they go home as a losers and you will hear them screaming at each other because they don't have any money left for their dinner. After that, they will give more headaches to the people working abroad to send money to them so that they can eat.
They had been doing that for years not even realizing that they could've saved a lot of money if only they stopped at some point but even now that the son has 2 kids, he still gambles irresponsibly.
I don't think they know when to stop and I don't think they will. As long as those who work abroad will keep on giving money to them, they won't stop because they will have someone to rely to whenever they are in need of financial assistance.

I Don't think no one can stop gambling unless they ran out of money? it depends to a person because I've known some people who's just go to a casino to bet a few times and they don't let their budget money run out even if they experience a win, they don't make that a reason to gamble longer, there you can see how dedicated a person is to following his own rules when it comes to gambling, But I also believe that no matter how determined a person is not to become an addict, we can never predict what the possibilities will be.

Gambling is very attractive and unless one starts gambling with a fixed budget no one can quit gambling until they run out of money. a person who understands when to stop gambling and follows it properly can save himself from gambling addiction. And by keeping themselves away from gambling addiction and gambling for fun, they can protect themselves from vices and enjoy life.  And those who are more emotional and don't follow limitations are certain to suffer

Stop at the right time is necessary although not many people can do that because they are tempting to try the other promotions that they see at the casino. If we feel that are still far from that, we must learn to stop at the right time to avoids the big lose that can happens if we forget to stop playing gambling. Gambling is for all of the people but the problem is many people can't treat gambling as an entertainment and thinks that gambling is a way to make money. That's wrong thought because people will difficult to makes money. They will only have a chance to lose their money, especially if they can't hold themselves and don't knows when to stops. It's happens to many people so we must always control ourselves and knows when to stops gambling. If someone can thinks clearly about gambling and can accept whatever he gets from gambling, he will knows that gambling is part of entertainment and he should treat it like that. If he wants to make money, he can search for the other way and not from gambling.

The most important thing for a gambler is to stop at the right time. Experienced gamblers stop when they should, but there are some gamblers who become addicted and never think about such things. Moreover we have to accept that gambling is not for everyone but only those who have good luck can favor gambling. All the points you have mentioned here are important for a gambler but if a player does not follow these points then he is never a healthy normal person. If a healthy minded person experiences something when he keeps losing while gambling and can't quit then he is definitely addicted to gambling. So the most important thing for that person to abstain and stop is to always abstain from gambling. If that person is addicted to gambling to a large extent then he must stop otherwise he will gradually become more addicted and stop using strategy.

Thou you ha have to stay in control because it's  just a game but you can stop when:

1.when you gambling with more than what you can afford to lose

2.when you are down chasing your losses

3.you are no longer keeping tracks of time you spent

4.when you are under any forms of abnormal condition such as alcohol or when you are upsets.

Gambling should not be taken seriously as it is nothing more than a probability activity that provides nothing more than the possibility of winning without any certainty that you can win, everything is always random and therefore some people who think using common sense choose to make gambling a place to fill their time to get entertainment and relieve boredom, which means that if you feel that gambling is interfering with other aspects of your life such as losing balance because you keep losing then obviously you should be able to stop by yourself without having to be told by someone else.

In fact if you engage in gambling based on a correct and proper understanding especially about the difficulty of winning because it always depends on luck then I think you can definitely make decisions according to what should be done which leads to a better situation, and if you are one of those gamblers who really struggles to accept the fact of losing then I think you are an irresponsible gambler and I hope you can change all your mindsets about gambling because obviously the inability to accept defeat is something that can trigger a lot of out of control actions.

Gamblers don't care about anything. their aim is only to gamble. and for gambling they use borrowed money apart from their pocket money. the main reason for this is greed, they are very greedy because they don't think they will win the big jackpot and become rich fast. thus they become crazy gamblers and do not care about losses. so taking breaks between gambling should be frequent  It is certain that those who cannot keep themselves within these rules will become addicted to gambling and it will not be possible for a person who becomes addicted to gambling to take a break from gambling or quit gambling.

Any gambler which is doing that is shooting themselves in the foot, because most casinos forbid this practice as welcome bonuses are there to try to attract new clients, and even if those gamblers believe they are cheating the casino in this way, if the day ever comes in which they make a big win, you can be sure the casino in question will refuse to pay and show evidence of all the instances in which they violated this rule, so in their attempt to save themselves a few dollars, they may cost themselves the chance they have been waiting all along to make a big win.

You said it right,  with that kind of delusion many gamblers become addicted wanting to have that same fate with those who managed to make tons of money, they are unaware  that they already get engaged too much, without set limitations they'll just going to find themselves losing lots of money,  amounts that they can't afford to let go, with that same reason they will keep pushing forward trying to recover the money but in the end they will just suffer with the same outcome.

Without knowing how to stop, everything will be messed  up, you need to set up your limitations and always follow and not to exceed to prevent addiction to take place.

what does it mean?
that is one sign of being addicted and that is the saddest part of gambling addictions.
correct because you cannot be a winner or with luck all the day , because sometimes luck will be with us just a short period.
the first 5-10 bets that you did not get any win then better leave the table and rest.
maybe better Stop and take a rest for a while.

I have a friend who actually does that when gambling, he makes a deposit with a large amount of money to get a bonus or big cashback too, and the money he puts into the casino only plays around 5% when he wins or the money has been reduced 5% then he withdraws it and waits a few days to get cashback I think that's ridiculous but maybe that's the way he chooses to reduce the loss of money but still be able to gamble. I also often register at new casinos and there is a bonus selection feature, but sometimes it is conditional so I don't choose it. As often as I register at a new casino I always ignore the bonus option for some reason it just feels lazy.

Yes, I agree with that, indeed gambling for long sessions is not recommended, because in my opinion, with losses that are certain to occur, it is possible that if gambling is done for long sessions, it will probably drain our finances, unless the gambling is really good. increase the money invested in gambling, but still, if the gambling is good and can give you a win then there is no harm in withdrawing it.

Not many addicted gamblers are able to respond when to stop gambling and in fact they always think about recovering their losses on the next bet.
Gambling is always seen in a much more negative aspect, even though the fault lies with the individual involved and if they are able to control it then gambling can be said to be an opportunity to channel their hobby, especially in card games like this.

For this matter, it should be a decision and stop when you get a big win, then set aside the money back for the next gambling after they stop. But due to the effects of greed and irresponsibility, they actually spend all the winning money on the next bet and ultimately lose all the money.

I have seen a few guys who are the way you describe them, like they have gambling timing on a daily basis; no matter what they are doing, they just don't joke about the timing; they are ready to leave whatever they are doing half way just to meet up with their gambling schedule. 
 
This set of people don't just gamble because they are not just gambling for fun; they are gambling because they have a target to meet and a particular game that they plan to play at that moment.

They might think of bonuses because bonus are free money given to only bettor, if you are a customer you will receive bonuses sometime.
IMO I thinks that the reward to earn a bonus from betting depends on how active you have been on the casino website betting with your initial deposits. However it's possible that bonuses really makes gamblers happy wether you are addicted or not, if the money on your betting account is not from your bank account you will be happy for it. There was a day I mistakenly deposit money to my friend betting account unknowingly but my friend didn't bothered to check how come the money in his account then he used the money to gamble.
So that same day when I check on my betting account I didn't see any money, then I have to check were I deposited the money and that's how I new the betting account i sent the money to wasn't mine.
I am trying clarify that anyone who sees money in their betting account won't bother to check how come the money in his/her account, they will use it. That doesn't requires them to be either addicted to gamble or not, it's just natural.
Lot of gamblers makes sure to finish the money they brings to casinos before they stop gamble, even when they win they won't bother to say it's okay or thinks that as they are winning the next one might be for them to lose.

Someone who already addicted to gambling will not even thinking about a bonuses. The main target is playing gamble every time as far as he have money on their pocket. I agre with you, if no control there will be unnecessary decisions to continue playing on win or even loses positions. Because gamble is their need, not just for entertainment anymore. People only know when they have to stop only if they have a good emotion and control skill to prevent loses more money.
