Probably one of the best strategies not to allow emotions to negatively take over one's judgement would be to do our research about the teams and the match in general, before even placing the bet, once we have placed the bet on the sport book, it would be matter of not paying attention to the development of the bet or the match, so we can allow ourselves to get distracted with other things instead, other things in your daily life.

I have seen people who also get anxious over the possibility of cashing out before the match finishes completely, because of the chances of even bigger earnings in the case of them doing the right move.
Whatever the case, I don't think I would pay attention to the option of cashing out earlier and just allow my luck to drive me further to bigger earnings or the loss of my wager. It is all or nothing anyways, in the most of occasions.

People don't like accepting that they are the problem, whatever they do is right to them, thats why you will see people defrauding others online and when you tell them that they need to stop they will come up with another story, shifting the blame on something else or the condition of their country or the lack of job in the country.

If we are suffering its right to steal and hurt others in return, and when someone tell us about how bad and evil we are we should blame it on the suffering? This happens a lot in my county and its a big shame, because don't care if what they are doing is wrong and thats what's affecting so many.

The day you start seeing your flaws is when you will start to get wiser, and if you like blaming others for your own mistakes you will never be able to do something good, because to leave a footprint in this world you need to face your mistakes and learn from it.

You have to keep your cool while you're gambling because if not, that's one of the fastest ways to just donate your money to the casinos. If you are there to gamble, have some fun and wins, all you have to do is always be on your mind. Be mindful at all times with your bets because your winning will also rely on your mood whether they're good or not by that time you have casted your bets. Like if you're greedy at that time of doing some bets, then it doesn't matter whether the odds are favorable or not but as long you are having that greediness within you, you are unsure with any outcome that your bets may provide.

That is the reason why making decisions and your mood are also connected. Don't make decisions when you are in bad mood because if you do that then it is associated with the results that you're going to do. Those bets that seems to be easy for you, they can result to some bad bets because you're not in your right thinking at that time when you've placed your money on those games or matches that you have been following. I agree with the threads about putting your time in gambling and when you don't have it, it's best to avoid doing it so that you are not in a hurry to place bets and make such decisions.

Gambling addictions are mostly suffered not by such greedy people, but by people who like to compete. They often look for the adrenaline and excitement that gambling brings. They may be risk-averse and strive to win regardless of the consequences. Playing in a casino or betting on sports can be a way for them to show their strength and ability to make decisions in difficult situations. Unfortunately, this can lead to serious financial problems and even gambling addiction. People who are prone to competition should be especially attentive to their attitude towards gambling and seek help if they feel that they are losing control.

That's a fascinating perspective. It's true that our emotions can influence our decisions, even when we try to be rational. Gambling can be very emotional because so much is at stake, including money, reputation, and even our sense of self-worth. True, there is no way to totally escape the emotional side of gambling, but we can try to manage it by establishing boundaries and learning from our experiences. Many gamblers have had ugly gambling experiences, but they failed to learn from them, so they continue to fall into the same trap.

a gambler must be intelligent and able to think rationally when they are in a gambling position. as you said, overconfidence, emotions, worry, fear, and being under pressure will affect how gamblers can think and decide things. when they are in this difficult position, it will definitely be very difficult to be able to think rationally and remain calm in making their decisions, which will lead to defeat that they will regret.

and because of this it is important for gamblers to be able to control their composure and remain calm and think rationally in any situation. even though it is quite difficult at first, if gamblers get used to it and train their emotions to remain stable, gamblers should be able to overcome these challenges.

I think every human emotions possible could be reasons to gamble as well. Even if we are happy, and we want to celebrate it, I see people going into the casinos and have some fun time and have the best entertainment. I'm talking about going into traditional base casinos here. There are bars, when you can go and drink with friends and families and live band to listen. That's why I said that emotions or controlling it is the key to stay away from gambling or at least you can manage and mitigate your losses.

However, we all know that it's hard, our hearts and minds are going to play trick on us and I think everyone would agree that sometimes we hear whispers that we should be playing, there is this temptation. And unless you snaps from it and took control, you just don't know, maybe you will go out and play or go online and deposit and it's going to be too late for you as you might be losing already.

Furthermore, people who have high greed in money are mostly those who fall from gambling addiction. Although I should say that all of us are actually greedy, but as long as we are gambling responsibly, and we’re able to control our emotions when gambling, then we’re safe from getting addicted in gambling.

Now talking about fear and anxiety, gamblers who have been dealing with this should not be gambling in the first place. Otherwise, they will result into compulsive gambling because of their uncontrollable urge towards gambling. However, there are certain strategies made to fight their urge in gambling, but first and foremost, a gambler should learn to admit his problem first so that he will be given appropriate assistance.

as long as you're human, you can't factor out the role of your psychological state while making any decisions but as regards making gambling decisions, emotion can put you in a corner where you break your set out gambling roles and maybe go above your limit if care isn't taken. But life isn't ideal and situations as that can be the one that might give you your best win or worst loss which will all contribute to making you more experienced and better matured to dealing with whatever emotional shit that will come your way while you're gambling.

   Like we know that's it's very very hard to control our emotions even when you are winning and when you are losing.
   Although it might be very easy to control the emotions when you are winning but truth be told that it's difficult to control the emotions while losing in gamble.
   Braking rules is easy for addicted gambler. Of a serious note, gamblers should give them self rules that they can be able to keep for a life time as long as they are still gambling.
   Gamble and drugs are the worst things that someone shouldn't be addicted to, you will spend your whole money and you might also sell of your property to get money you can use to gamble.
   People can say things but it's might be hard to keep them up, some days afterwards they are the ones that made the rules them self and they can still be the ones to brake the rules by them selfs.

Controlling emotions is a difficult thing for a regular gambler who has already become a bit addicted to it, it's like a challenge for them because they can barely do it. So even if such gamblers create a set of rules, they wouldn't think twice before breaking those rules and doing what they feel and all those feelings are driven by emotions, emotions that make them gamble more when they need to stop, it makes them try and recover their losses which is a never-ending chase.

So, it's easier said than done. We can say such things very easily because we are not in that situation, but if you ask someone who is inside of that circle, you would hear them saying they aren't able to control their emotions because the urge is stronger than their self-control.

I agree with this, it is true that if we do something with emotions it will cause problems by making careless decisions, not considering it first. In fact, I don't think it's only in gambling, in other things it's the same even if things are not. is related to money, while gambling is clearly closely related to money, and if it is done emotionally then what will happen is a big problem such as losing all the money we have, because the urge from emotions continues to require us to gamble whether it is chasing wins or recovering losses.
If something we are doing is starting to get messy then we should just stop, before everything falls apart due to explosive emotions. However, in my opinion, not everyone can control themselves, including controlling their emotions well. There are many gamblers who cannot control themselves or their emotions, which causes large losses. It's a shame if gambling is done with emotional outbursts.

Emotions work with the brain and psychology moves along with the body. A gambler can't focus on his emotions alone, that's intellectual prowess, he should also try out mastering his body. knowing what easily traps his body not to listen or work along with the information he's gotten from an intellectual document or article on gambling The stability has to be there to cement the player's confidence in gambling. One would say that confidence isn't great for a gambler, but that'll be excess of it. When a player is confident, enough, he won't fail or disappoint his limit. Gambling will be easy-peasy. Time is the greatest problem of every gambler. And lack of a coach. Gambling requires control, in all aspects.

Since a player isn't completely in charge of his emotions, due to the voluntary and reflex aspect of it, leveling up the body to withstand the involuntary actions to some length would make a huge difference to a player. The human system doesn't need the brain to act cautiously towards losing money. Those factors are there and can't be controlled or managed. Yet, a well-trained body can adjust to it, and learn to forget and act better next time. A body where the player is only focused on his brain, he'd act strangely every moment he loses in gambling. If he does chase loss, he'd continually progress in that aspect. But, if he's trained to withstand the pressure, sooner, they'll be no problem. We grew up being scared of dogs, sooner we got older and controlled our fear for dogs.

Desire is one of the reasons that causes a person to become accustomed to doing certain things such as gambling, I don't know the purpose but certainly if we talk about gambling then in general the idea of earning is usually the main goal of gamblers. Gambling is an activity that can make us addicted which ultimately leads to addiction where someone will find it difficult to ignore the slightest time not to gamble, and for the matter of gamblers who cannot control their gambling activities such as in terms of time and finances then in my opinion it seems that they have a goal to earn because obviously the desire to make money is greater than the awareness to prioritize preventive measures.

On the other hand yes it is true that one way to overcome problems like this is to identify what the problem is, but unfortunately very few gamblers realize to do self-introspection, because usually they feel that they are not experiencing any problems in their gambling activities even though they are basically in a zone that endangers themselves because they have the wrong approach and mindset on gambling, and also this is the importance of telling your gambling involvement to one of your closest people such as a friend, because obviously I think they will be able to help advise you and also tell you that you are very excessive in gambling.

You are right.
Gambling often becomes a habit because people can experience adrenaline and excitement from gambling. This can lead them to gamble more and more without controlling their spending and time. The way to combat this is by first recognizing the problem and admitting that you have a problem.
It is also important to seek help from specialists who can help develop control strategies and teach them how to manage their desires. Remember that gambling can negatively affect your life and relationships with loved ones, so it is important to combat this addiction.

It's not only in gambling, but in everything.

When someone is really focus with his activities, it's better to not disturb them or ask a thing because human only have one brain, so you can't force someone to be in good performance when they do many thing at once.

When someone in a good mood, they're become brave and positive.

When someone in bad mood, they're become coward and think everyone is bad.

If you think about it, rarely is everything going well for anyone, because stress at work and in the family has become commonplace. Many people think about how to feed their children, pay off loans, fix a broken car, how to help old parents and much more. A bachelor without loans and a car, who has a place to live and has money for 1 year+ or passive income, can feel completely at ease. I think there will be very few of these. Moreover, I noticed that the best decisions made in gambling are unemotional decisions. I also turn off all the sounds in the game and try not to react to the bright images of the game, this helps to maintain balance. And if we scream, worry and run around the room with every lost bet, this will lead us to emotional imbalance. . And this, in turn, leads to a natural loss. In general, I would advise those who consider themselves emotional to enter the game very rarely.

Its a fresh air to see some humane idea about gambling here. To be honest, even if we all claim we can control our emotions and decide like "ice-man" its never completely true. Setting emotional limits, for example, may never work for some people who just have extraordinary desire. Humans are very complicated and gambling completely works under this notion. It calls for our basic instincts. That's why we find gambling enjoyable. I guess completely -the best idea- is to limit yourself, not only by your brain, but also enforced limitations of gambling websites. "1 week break" option may be good.

You are completely correct; heated emotions can lead to rash actions and irrational choices. When we are emotional, our prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for decision-making, may become less active. This makes it difficult for us to consider the ramifications of our actions and make sound decisions.
To keep our emotions from clouding our judgment, we might take a step back and try to examine the matter objectively. This is known as "emotional distancing," and it can help us make more sound decisions. We can also try to recognize and classify the emotions we're experiencing, which can help us understand why we're feeling this way and how it's influencing our thinking.
Finally, it can be helpful to take some time to calm down and relax before making a decision.

It is true that experienced gamblers are successful because they know their gambling strategies and have the ability to control them and do not exceed the limits. Professional gamblers can easily manage betting settings for much faster games. Know the rules before playing for real money and practice on the demo table. Gamblers who are tempted to expand their bankroll's gameplay potential find it much harder to recover everything.
