When I see a match/game and I can tell what I think it would play, I get excited to put on a bet slip watch the game. It's fun and when it pays it's more/double fun, how I gamble is gambling on games I know and even better if am going to watch the game. Sport prediction is my bragging rights -well with/between me and my close friends-.
indeed if you can enjoy the gambling you are doing then you feel happy but it must also be balanced with the big wins you can get because if you always lose then it will make you bankrupt, so we as cryptocurrency traders who like getting profitable then still must be able to make a profit wherever you are and with any gambling.

I know that there are a lot of people who have gone through the same fate as me in gambling and are even sadder. Tell me that if its gambling for money then you will only regret it in the end but if you make it a way to get pleasure then you can control your desires and your money over it.

I got into gambling through playing poker so I was a bit more concered with my bankroll when starting to gamble. My plan was always to save atleast some of my winnings so I could go never broke in the end. The real problem started when I switched into betting of esports games. I started betting my CSGO skins in a lot of matches and noticed how ingame pixel became money for me. Betting Keys or Skins instead of money came normal for me and I lost touch with the values behind it. Betting a knife seems normal, even though it had a value of more than 100$. Eventually I had to stop gambling like this. Now I am just betting with bitcoins and a little bit of FIAT.

You shouldn't be gambling in the first place since you earn enough to pay bills and meet your daily needs. This is the kind of mistake everyone makes. They think gambling can make them easy money. True it can make you easy money, but it can also take everything away from you within few seconds! Gambling should be seen as a form of entertainment, not as a form of money making. Even if you have "self control", you shouldn't gamble if you can't afford to lose.
Gambling is about money, but it gives me pleasure in anything I can win. Recording win and losses is very insignificant and completely useless. I have tried all kinds of trick and tips to increase win and chances, but none of them have been able to bring me a big win.
There is no such things as tips and tricks to make money by gambling. Those are just all gamblers fallacy.

After I read the experience of playing gambling in the opening post, I conclude that you are addicted to gambling. Never make gambling
a source of income, because it will make you addicted. Your mistake, playing gambling because you want to make money, then you keep
playing until you get a big win. although you can control so you don't play every day, still pointless, because your goal of playing gambling
is wrong. In my opinion, just use gambling as entertainment, at least that thing will prevent you from becoming addicted.

I have tried all kinds of trick and tips to increase win and chances, but none of them have been able to bring me a big win. Self-control is important and here I know that my main mistake in gambling is due to "money" purposes. I should have realized that if I made gambling a place to have fun then I didnt have to be excited about winning.

not really, there are things you can gamble without involving money. by definition as long as it has risk and doesn't know what the result would be it can be considered as gambling. but yeah, gambling can give a different experience for different people I myself enjoy gambling even if I don't win and I mostly play poker and I enjoy the mind games people do when playing poker.

well, tips and tricks don't always work especially if you are playing pure luck-based gambling i.e dice game and such but there have been people able to gain profit because of their own tips and tricks and yeah self-control is probably a huge help for their win. and gambling can be a fun hobby to have as long as you don't stress on always winning and it doesn't affect your life in a negative way.

Most of the gamblers could've got this experience with gambling. Myself isn't good with gambling, before knowing about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies I used to spend between friends betting on games. Our forum and the different gambling sites with cryptocurrency acceptance made me learn more about gambling. At times my mind finds it a way of earning, which is wrong. Each and every user has the urge of earning through gambling, but the people succeeding in it is very small.

It seems that with your experience, you have been numb about all the losses because you are getting used to it and forgot how much you should thank your money because you have it. I felt like this recently because I had a significant loss of my account, and I guess I didn't know how to react. I realized some things like:
  • You know the risk, you know that you can lose all your funds
  • You continue even after significant losses

I think at the end of the day, as long as you know what you are risking and how much of it you can afford, I believe you can be successful, maybe not right now but soon. You won't gain anything if you don't risk anything.

Of course, when we gamble, we always wanted to win some money, well there are players that says they play to have some fun, but I do believed, that in order to have fun enjoyment, you have to win. I also been gambling even prior to crypto, and I will say that I have a lot of ups and downs that really affected me financially. But I have matured from the years of playing, I just stick to sportsbet now but sometimes I do play my favourite game of slots, but that's just it.
Even though gambling is just for fun but if you lose the game it will be the same as it will stress us because I have lost a lot of money, I have been gambling for a long time but still at the core want to win because I want to change my finances.
But I now know that even though I have used the tips and tricks that have been given, I will not fully believe it because in every gambling game there must be gaps.
Gambling is not an easy to win money game. You are risking your money in exchange to earn money . Strategy and tricks will not always work so if you think you already lost a lot then know when to decide to stop or else you can also lost more having the will to win .

For me the essence in gambling is to have fun. If I just play for money, I would always be under pressure whenever I lose it because then I will have to play to recover those loses. Instead, I chose to have a pleasure in the game of gambling and anything which is winning amount is something extra for me and helps me in different ways. Greed is what drive many to keep gambling which is wrong as per me.
Sometimes ai play gambling because I am bored and I don:t have something to do or I play gambling because I am in pain or I want to unwind. For me playing gambling is just for fun only and it is not a job. I don't play gambling most of the time co'z I am avoiding the addiction. I don't want to be an addict co'z I have a lot of things to do and to think and I don't wanna waste my whole time just for playing.

Gambling has made me forget what money is and even seem worthless because I am so desperate for more.
Yes, especially after a big win. Sometimes I would think, "why I work so hard and not just gamble to earn the same/more money," then burn the winning money to purchase useless stuff.

That's why hard-earned money will last longer than "dirty" money.

I should have realized that if I made gambling a place to have fun then I didnt have to be excited about winning.
You will still be excited about winning, but the change in mindset about gambling is an entertainment and not a money-making machine, will help you decrease your playing time.

Who goes out to the movie theatre every day?! Conversely, many people do work every day.

Well everyone feels the same in gambling especially if you started to get hooked on it. The amount of money you win or lose is insignificant once you get hooked on it. You'll start craving and looking for it and all that matters is you play and satisfy your cravings.

I had come to the point were I spent almost my whole day gambling and felt I wasted it by the end of the day where I was first winning and ended up with a loss.

I fit definitely into the social category given I'll only go to a live Casino for a night out / dinner & entertainment etc.  True there are those who make a living out of gambling, but they aren't the norm.  You really need to sit down and firstly work out what the various "types" of gamblers are before you start labeling them as dependent gamblers or even in my case lite gamblers much-less anything in between.

Gambling is about money,
Depend on your intention why you gamble,because if it is like you?then sure it is for money but for others this is for fun ,Yeah they are losing money but those losses are only payment for the fun and happiness they got when they are playing.

This is what we need to learn before trying to gamble,Learn to control your desire because in the end of the day this will lead you to losses.

People who are approaching gambling for the first time has a lot of expectations they come to gambling because they were inspired by their friends who brag about their winning but not their losses, some gamblers are like that, bragging their winning but never mentioning their losses.

So we approach gambling thinking that we can do better if your friends can why not you, until you realized that it's not really that easy and your expectation is very much different from reality and you become to question if you can really make money in gambling, but unfortunately you lost a lot, everyone here has this kind of experience it's a learning process that makes us think that gambling is only for entertainment.

I was hooked in gambling because at first I am earning good profits and I thought that I could keep up with it and use that money to help my family because to me, helping them is what matters. I've been gambling as a student but please don't think that I am spending huge money because, to be honest, I don't have enough money to start with. It is just about 5000php or more likely $90 to $110.

In our province, that is huge money and as time goes by, I met my partner in life and that is when it hits me. I felt the pain, me being so useless at that time and gambling is tearing me down because I thought I am doing this for them but I am just doing it for myself. Some therapies which I don't actually tell if it is and with the support of my partner and family I did get out. I am always saying this but my experience is not that deep compared to the real gambling addiction still I am so thankful to have my loving and caring family and partner and I knew this is not something to underestimate. People are actually struggling because of it but usually, it just starts as entertainment, that I could confirm.

Gambling is about money,

Its about entertainment mostly, thats the primary purpose and people like the money element to add risk and reward.   I think theres some self deception to believe it will always be profitable, its a game that pays or can pay and people like the feeling of the payout.   Its a perfectly justified activity on the basis of similarly drinking or smoking or various costs to taking part in any game or leisure, most games we dont expect to profit from it but just enjoy taking part.   I think thats a more reasonable take,  I hope to come out even and theres always the chance I will make something and I have done on occasions but its a nice bonus that feels kinda amazing at the time for me personally.
