I've been in a few months making bookkeeping for every deposit / withdrawal i did. Sounds a bit stupid but I feel the benefit of it all. Like I can resist my desire to gamble after loss much or after get huge wins. did you wanna try my way  Wink

Worth a try though not sure it will work, basically if I get it right you think by creating a book where I note down all the profits and loos and then I basically arrange it as my account statement so I stay away from gambling maybe if I see i have incurred looses but what if I see that I have incurred profits, won't I be more eager to gamble more. It will work both ways and not only one way we see it. But will put this idea into implementation and see how this works out, if any one else is going to do it post your results.
Yes it would not only work on one way but either both ways but still its not a bad idea to make a book on regarding to your loses and winnings on a certain game you do play.If it works on Op then proceed as long it do make positive outcomes to yourself when it comes to gambling.This method might work for some and but majority in my own view doesnt have this kind of traits.

Sounds like a really good idea & a very responsible way of gambling. I salute you for it, you're far more likely to be a sensible & calculated gambler this way.

Well done.

Keeping records and giving yourself accountability is always good Smiley Will keep your gambling in check

Yes but keeping your gambling in check doesn't necessarily translate into victories as there are a number of gamblers who normally reflect after a loss and have records of their gambling history but it doesn't stop them from loosing subsequent bets or games.
At least know what your limit is, it will help you enable to minimize your loses in the event you are not getting any winning moment, most of the gamblers gets frustrated and they were not able to follow their plan so they lose more. If we gamble we need to make a plan of action on how to achieve the victory and and how to minimize the loses so gambling will not ruin your life.

Thats good to have a plan to avoid big loss, but the thing wont you risk a bigger bet knowing you can get a bigger reward? Gambling does plays with our mind, and we get the ilusion of the lucky on our side and usually risk more then we should.

So you basically record every deposit and withdrawal you made that way you could control your gambling habit cmiiw. That's a nice way of managing your money but I think it'll consume too much of my time if I try it. Limiting my bet amounts should be enough for me.

Actually, limiting bet amounts is best way to controll your money, much better than keeping track of  what you deposit/withdraw imo, as at least i know how much i deposited or withdrawed this month, while when you limit your bets you can stop yourself from losing more which saves your funds.

Indeed mate.. this is what most gamblers do they know how to control their bets so that they won't lose big time. I also apply this when I'm gambling and this helps a lot and make sure that I will not lose my ground.

I see you plan as a normal thing and what anyone should imbibe as a culture and not only in gambling because any activities one is engaging even in business, there is need to sit down and compute the cost and benefit been derived and with that, you know whether this path is the right one or its leading me to early destruction. As a policy too, I am actually intensifying effort to be more prudent in this rule.
well that's right knowing limitation will be applied not only with gambling  nut also with other way around, as we needed to compute our benefits and loses to make sure that we are moving forward or if we needed to change our plans its an effective ways of doing good business and its should be a must for everyone who loves to have self control.

Self control is a good thing but people lose it while gambling that's the problem. It's easy to say the words but in reality sometimes we just can't stop betting until we lose it all. That's why it's important to never deposit on a gambling site more than you can afford to lose.
We should learn from all whether it's the experience itself or that we read from other people's stories because if we won't to learn to control ourselves then gambling will only make you crumble.

Yes, gambling can be a pleasant experience if you will not be abusing it. And we can learn from other gamblers what the abusing means regarding to gambling. In short you are abusing gambling when you play with amount which is too big for your budget and another thing is when you gamble all the time, when you losing all the time you have to gambling.

I have a similar system but I use a "higher-level" spreadsheet and don't do much micromanagement within the 2nd level. For me, Level 1 is the main gambling "portfolio" (Sports, casino, high-risk).

Then, I have a second-level deposit into a new account/site under each and record the date and amount. I commit this as an automatic loss. When it reaches 200%, I withdraw.

I don't keep the books within each 2nd level:)

It does work and it's a good way to discipline yourself. Gambling isn't an investment for me as much as it is entertainment.

keep record of all the gambling you're doing it is good you are more able to control yourself not to gamble excessively if you look at your record. I'd rather manage my bets because to seeing my notes that most likely lose it's hurts.
When you will be seeing your track of losses, don't you feel recovering them as early as possible ? Like a typical non-self controlled gambler, I may go for recovering it. But your idea has enough possibility to be successful as gamblers never get chances to summarize their gambling performances and when they get chances to see such tracks, definitely might lead to stop gambling at least for some small period of time.

Well this is a good idea, my mother is always doing that to avoid  extra expenses. Im not really a gambler because i only gamble when I want but and I will give this a try. The problem here is its not always up, there's some losses too, and i think its hard to deposit something when I have nothing to deposit at all.
Your mother is very smart woman.
I am doing the same thing every month, and because of that i don't live like we say in our country - from month to month.
Good bankroll management is great thing for sport bets and poker, but when we talk about pure gambling like dice slots etc., it's somehow best to go full and win or go home crying(with money you can afford to lose of course), because the more you play using small bets more likely you will lose in long run because of house edge.
If a person does not know how to play or does not know how to do it, but I do not think that in the shorts of the ear, he will be able to make some results and regardless of what rates he puts. Whether it's small or big, Mutual behind it is losing.

Sure, there's the need for consistency when it comes to gambling bankroll but the failure to control our emotions whether happy or sad gets us to do the absurd and we end up losing everything. If I had my own way i will strictly force everyone to see a psychologist before you begin professional gambling.

Not only for professional gambling but, I think, for gambling in general. The thing is many gamblers see themselves as "professional gamblers", they overestimate their abilities big time and what they really need is an advice from a good psychologist.

controlling our emotions is really hard to do because we've always too greedy when we can see that our chance to win is wide open and because we can win the games with easy. i think gamblers will go to psychologist after they realize that they need to leave the gambling place but they are getting hard to do and because they want to get win but in the reality, they can not win. after some after time they playing gambling and can not win at all, they will go to other people to share their experience and i think they asked for help.
