Topic: Mixing holidays with gambling how do you feel - page 4. (Read 1621 times)

During the holidays, we do have more free time, so we can do the things we like whenever and as much as we want, including gambling. However, gambling too often and for too long will actually bring us closer to the risk of addiction. Therefore, to prevent the risk of addiction, I will continue to gamble as usual, which is only once a week with a set budget. And maybe during the long holiday later I will spend more time with my family, because I haven't been home for a long time, they miss me very much and I shouldn't ruin this precious moment just because of my personal selfishness.

On the other hand, why I don't spend too much time gambling, the thing I'm afraid of is when it can cause me to experience many losses. Which as a result of these losses can make my mood unhappy and my mind restless, and this can ruin precious moments with my family, and can also have the effect of being lazy when I start going back to work later.

Actually it would really just that ruin up the mood on which on the time or moment you do play is that you would really be that not able to enjoy your vacation at the same time you can’t be able to enjoy on what you are doing because of the things you are dealing into. Bear in mind that you are taking some vacation to have some enjoyment or spending up some time with your family on which this is far more important specially if we do speak about family time and focus or bonding. You can gamble anytime but having a time with your family is seldom.

maybe because people who can do it consider the holidays as the most appropriate time for them to gamble. because they may not have really free or limited time like weekends or after work.
with that, maybe gamblers can enjoy their own holidays by gambling and other families can spend their time with a planned vacation. but maybe gamblers will realize that there is time with family during the holidays that will definitely disappear from their vacation plans.
however, we all have our own way of gambling and vacation activities. some can mix it, but some will not.

Yes, the ability to control everything we want or are doing is the main point, regardless of whether you want to engage in an activity in the middle of other activities you are doing such as adding gambling in the middle of your vacation or not, the point is to know and understand what we are actually doing and also know how to control it so that everything can remain balanced.

Basically being rational and maintaining common sense is the basis for long-term safety and that is what I maintain and I use every time I want to make a decision, always preferring to prevent rather than regret it has always been my life concept and I think this is something that we must always carry wherever and in any situation especially when we.

At first, I also thought it might be fine to gamble while on vacation. But in fact, I actually found it difficult to get good results when gambling online while on vacation. With such incidents, maybe not everyone can mix gambling with vacation, because not everyone has  good focus in the middle of a crowd like a vacation. Although indeed, I also admit some of them and some of my friends in mixing gambling with vacation and it is good for them, but not for me. Also, it has been difficult to control myself when on vacation, maybe it is because I am also too excited so that makes me bet like crazy without a clear target.

You are absolutely right bud, completely agree with you, there is absolutely no reason to treat gambling like its something special, for with the availability of internet and the possibility to gamble online this days, it's possible for any one to gamble at any time of their choice, whether it's a holiday or not.
I know some people who gamble into the late hours of the night through their phones or computers even after having a really rough day at work during the day and ought to be resting at that time of the night.

What I believe as the truth is that, gambling have no special time when it can be done, people gamble when ever they feel like, doesn't necessarily have to be during the holidays, except someone decided to use the holiday to visit a special physical casino, this usually won't be necessarily to gamble, but just to have an experience of the place, this is completely a different matter altogether.

Nowadays, don't have to go to Las Vegas (or the nearest casino reservation) to gamble; all you need is a smartphone with internet. Therefore, the problem of combining gambling and holidays is far-fetched. The problematic aspect here is time (and game) management, so as not to get too carried away by the gaming process, spending a lot of holiday time or losing your deposit (with subsequent attempts to win it back). In other words, if you set yourself a limit on the time and money spent (possibly won), then combining gambling with holidays is possible.

1: I avoid gambling not only on holidays, but in general.
2: If I were into gambling, I wouldn't see anything wrong with setting aside some time for it. Otherwise, what are holidays for if not to have fun?

I have been reading through all the comments here and the majority of them did state that gambling during holidays or mixing a little bit of fun into our holiday, this holidays is a kind of related to gaming holidays a d for me i think this holiday is most suitable for gambling because mass time is a fun time and even if you want to spend with family kids and so on you can do gamble with some free time that you get in-between so for me ops are good to go and all that he or she needs to do is to make sure he separate the times accurately to avoid mixing things up at the end of the day.

Gambling can roll with a lot of things and for sure only when you have some mental activities such as writing exams or driving a vehicle that you can't combine with gambling but any other activities, will go along with gambling very well, I will indeed spend some of my time on playing a few of those exciting games and also be getting engaged with sports betting as well.

But the bottom line is that, it's his call and he have to decide whichever ways is best for them since it an individual decision to. Make when it comes to this kind of thing so there is no need for advice so much.

I don't really feel anything about it. I will do it casually if I want to. If there are key events to bet on, that would be great, but it's best to have control over what you are doing. Many holidays are coming, so maybe you can do it in your free time. I think you could also treat it as a reward once you have been able to do something productive. Make sure that you are not addicted to it and can still control it. If not, then I suggest to avoid it at all costs.

Time management is needed here, because we should not disturb the vacation time that we should spend more time with family, instead we spend it on gambling. There are times when we gamble and there are times when we have to take a break from gambling, one of which is when we are on vacation.
However, this goes back to our respective views, because we cannot force our views on others and of course in this case they have their own views.
However, for me personally, I prefer to spend the time that I have planned for a vacation and enjoy it. Because there is still a lot of time if we want to gamble after finishing the vacation.

Who says gambling is bad when mixed with the holidays? I used to gamble even on holidays, and I don’t see any bad thoughts or effects on it. But if you are a gambler who never stick into your budget and is always chasing for bigger winnings, I must say you are not actually a responsible gambler. Whether it’s on holidays or not, if you gamble like there’s no other day, you will never be productive in your gambling activities. Gamble not to win, but just gamble for entertainment, winning is just a bonus.

Depends on how long the holiday if you ask me, if it is only few days like 3 days then I will spend all my time for the holidays with my small family so I can have great family time.
If the holidays is a bit long like a week or more, maybe I can try to spend few hours to gamble when my family's members are on their sleeping time so it wont disturb our togetherness during the holidays.
The most important thing is that I should not take the time that I have to spend with my family for gambling because family time is much more important than gambling time.

Gambling is all about risking only the amount that the player can afford to lose and not to try and gamble with a big amount that will affect their emotions after the game goes bursting. So, if one gamble with just a small amount they can risk losing, they not feel depression even if they lose.

I think it seems like you have a pretty good job where you can arrange everything as you please without any rules or pressure from your boss and maybe that way you can be free in arranging when you have time to rest and when you have time to work, everything is in your hands when you have a job without any pressure and rules from your boss or company, but the point is the question here is does it look good to mix your vacation time with adding gambling? As I explained above that when for example you enjoy your weekend or long holiday by traveling for example then in the middle of that vacation time you add gambling then there is a possibility that in the end the fun of your vacation time will be disturbed by gambling activities, but that is also only when you cannot be a responsible gambler, because if you can be responsible for everything then adding gambling in the middle of that vacation time should not be a problem.

Yes, we will not enjoy our vacation because we lose from gambling which makes our moods also change. We should know that we don't have a big chance to wins even if we are in our vacation. So we must control over ourselves by not playing gambling while we are in our vacation to avoids the changing of our moods. It is better we enjoy our vacation and focus to have and and relax with our families. We can prevent the losing money and can use the money for the right things.

That is why we should enjoy our vacation and use it to relax ourselves and release the stresses. We don't want to comes back to our daily routine with a frustrate and stresses because we lose our money by playing gambling when we are in our vacation. That will makes the situation worst and we can not enjoy our spare time and release the stresses. We should remember that playing gambling can gives us the losses so when we lose, we may change and that will makes us in a mess situation which we can not handle.

But that will depends on each people because they should know what they need to do while they are in vacation. It is better they let them free from gambling for a while and just enjoy their spare time and have fun. That will helps them to enjoy the vacation and comes back to their home with a refresh minds.

It's true what you said, by going on vacation sometimes we can get new ideas about things that are burdening our minds, this is real because I myself felt it when I ran out of ideas to promote my previous job, I admit that at that time I was stressed, and I asked my boss to go on vacation and during the vacation a new idea came up that made me able to promote my job interestingly and it is true that the results can attract many people to visit the coffee shop where I work.

Maybe it's okay to gamble during the holidays, it's just that I don't think everyone does that, even with people who like to gamble, there must be some who don't gamble during their holidays.
Now the problem is the fear that there will be a desire to recover losses, because when that happens, what will be done is to continue gambling and slowly it can affect our feelings and the atmosphere becomes more messy, unless you promise not to do it continuously, whatever the results, it might not be a problem.

I don't think it matters much since it often boils down to personal choice. No path is bad as long as you make the most of it. For me, It would be little to no screen time that means I'll be AFK and not indulge in a couple of things — trading, gambling and what not. The only exception to this is if I spot a really good opportunity that collide with the duration of the holiday then I'd be forced to take it. For instance, there are usually PL fixtures on December 26th which is a holiday but I'm inclined to make bets, I did last year.

Gambling has a lot to do with emotions and in most cases one tends to allow his or her emotions to have the better part of their decision-making when it comes to gambling, so for that we shouldn't deviate from the fundamental truth that we have two kinds of gambler's those that gamble for funs, this set of gamblers does not attach any expectations to their bets.

But also we have those set of gamblers that have chosen to gamble with the sole aim of winning some amount from the analysis and speculations this set has the feeling expectations of the outcome of the bets

It would be very fun if you get a win but it will be very annoying if you get a defeat, I have done it several times and yes indeed affect your heart when vacation both losing or winning and equally positive and negative.

Better advice is not gambling when traveling, unless you are good at managing yourself and your mood, it might not be a problem.

Even if we may attempt to gamble during holidays our emotions should be put in watch because irrespective of wether we are gambling for fun or for profits when we have much losses in gambling it affects our emotions I mean nobody feels happy when at lost, winning and loses comes with different excitements, it is best we understand our psychology in terms of gambling during holidays as not to overly do it in such a way it will ruin the purpose of the holiday which is to maximize the pleasure of staying off work by doing certain things that will make us happy.
