I believe it's how you treat gambling as of the frequency. If you make it so that's always going to be dependent on you deciding that you will gamble, you will definitely be affected and be addicted. I think some addicts think that it's going to be more chances so it's going to be more chances of winning but there's no guarantee in that.

You should be doing things to be productive.

I very much agree with everything you listed especially with the reason that the chances of winning will be very slim if you will place a bet on multiple games since the probability varies based on each game you decide to play or make a bet on, not the entirety of your bets combined. In result, you might also lose a lot of money in the process of attempting to make many wins and hit the winning prize.

One must analyze and calculate the percentage of winnings and from there, decide whether it's a smart choice to do multiple betting or just one to test out your luck. Proper calculation is necessary. If you want to profit while having fun, one of the key factors is to do not be impulsive and stupid.

The game itself isn't actually the problem, we can have multiple games if we want but we have to make sure that we are responsible enough to control our gambling activities. We should know how to put limitations in all that we do. We should know how to put limitations and control if we know that we are overplaying or if we are over spending.
Right from the beginning, we should also have the proper mindset towards gambling. It's fine to have fun but we should also be responsible at the same time so we won't fall for gambling addiction.

If you have the habit of playing and gambling on different sports and game, I think it is not good because of some few reasons like;
YOU WILL SPEND MORE MONEY ON GAMBLING.
YOU CAN BECOME MORE EASILY ADDICTED THAN A GAMBLER WHO PLAYS ONLY ONE GAME. 
YOUR CHANCES OF LOOSING WILL INCREASE, BUT YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING MAY NOT INCREASE.
YOU WILL SPEND MORE TIME GAMBLING.
Which other reason?

That’s where discipline should sink in. Gambling is obviously addictive and may ruin your future if you don’t play it wise. That is why before you start gambling, set your own budget that you can afford to lose. Once they’re used up, then there’s no reason to continue gambling.

 I don’t really think gambling with different sports is wrong, in fact as long as you know how to play the game, that would be your edge. But if you try to gamble in all sports all at once, and you did not set a budget for it, that’s when your decision to gamble has gone wrong. You will really end up with a huge loss, unless if you’re extra lucky that day to win all of them.

Apart from this, I don't find any other things as bad for the gamblers but even this is the mistake done by the user due to their negligence and mismanagement of funds.

But I can give you a valid reason for why someone should not bet on multiple sports at a time because it is really hard to excel at the stats which is really important to be successful in sports betting so don't try to concentrate on multiple games unless you have the photographic memory. Cheesy

Also you should manage time as well as same as money which is the main reason why someone becomes addicted to anything whether it's gambling, drinking or even studying and there is some saying that "Too much of anything is good for nothing", so keep everything under your control.

 I feel everyone does what suits them, after all, it's their cash yeah? Some may bet on just one game and it doesn't work while others choose several options. The more the merrier. Personally, I prefer to stake on different games than on just one selection but put in a small amount. Most of the time, it works more than when I play on a single game.
Another thing you should know is gambling can become an addiction only if the player let's it. Maybe the reasons Op outlined is what he has observed affects him but then making many selections can be exhausting to keep track of though.

If you want to win, just focus on a few games so you will be able to master them. However, if your intention is to maximize the fun, then the right thing to do is try different gambling games. Of course, the likelihood of losing is high because more games means more exposure to gambling. But as long as you maintain your discipline, you should still enjoy yourself and ensure that you never lose more than you can afford to lose.
It is true that if you only focus on a few games that you think you can play well and also master the game, then there will definitely be a chance of winning.
And there's nothing wrong if you want to have fun with other games or lots of games that you think are fun and the risks you will face will definitely be a lot of losses. However, if you are just curious, you should use very small capital. And in my opinion, it's just curiosity, which will ultimately make you return to playing the games you usually play because you don't want to experience a lot of losses.

Yes, directly maybe it will be able to slightly increase your chances of winning, with you only focusing on the game then indirectly it is true that it will make you more familiar with the spin there, so with that you will know whether the spin is good and does not drain your balance at all or vice versa, if it is good then you can continue it and if it is bad then you can immediately leave and find another game. I think that's the way it is and the phrase betting on multiple games at once I don't think is a good way to go because obviously your losses are very likely to increase because you're letting one of the games go but the spin in it is very bad.

Yes as I said above, my advice is that you can have fun in other games when the initial game is very bad and can make you run out of capital quickly, and also for capital it is obviously better to bring a smaller budget regardless of your goals, for fun or whatever, budget limits should always be used friends.

YOU WILL SPEND MORE TIME GAMBLING.
The real reason is still questionable as to why people spend more of their time gambling, even though this is not justified because of course they can use their time for other things such as working and other hobbies, why should they gamble all the time if the reason is just for money, why not work? or trading, I think it makes more sense than spending time gambling.

Everyone must have a reason not to bet too much at once because of course it will make people more controlled in refraining from gambling, sometimes when betting too much is not good, after all betting and gambling must be wise, another reason why you should not betting on too many things at once because of that you can ruin the future of your life when gambling.

You missed the most important reason not to bet or gamble on too many games at once, that is you won't be able to keep track of them. I learned this from trading where it is difficult to manage many trades at a time. The same goes for gambling. It is going to be a pain in the A**, if you open many sports bets in a single time.

Also, this only applies to the bets that we make where we make a bet and the result of the bet is settled once the match is finished. On the other hand, in gambling games, you can play one game at a time, for example, it is not possible for you to play dice and slot at the same time, you will either play dice or slot and once that game is finished, you will move to the other game.

I think this is not completely correct thinking, for example if you only bet on sports betting for example on football you can still be addicted because football matches happen almost every day and you can bet every day, including tennis and there are only a few times where we will not find betting on these sports.
So that's not completely correct thinking, because you can be addicted for other reasons and most often because you can't control yourself well, and honestly I think this is quite a strange reason and a little far-fetched.

It's hard to do that you can be considered a compulsive gambler if you are into so many games being in so many games means you have to spend more money and more time responsible gambler limit their time and spend money that they can afford to lose, this is what differentiate obsessive gamblers to moderate gamblers so much depend on the number of games you're playing and the amount of time you're spending.

So we have to watch out for the amount of money and the amount of time we spend in casinos, obsessive gamblers never monitor they just play and exhaust themselves always trying to win back their losses.

If you have the habit of playing and gambling on different sports and game, I think it is not good because of some few reasons like;

This is correct but because of the reason you provided but rather you will divided focus and attention when playing gambling multiple games and sports at the same time. I experience this personally on live games by playing bacarrat, blackjack and crazy time. It’s stressful and confusing at same time since betting on different games with different results gives me mix emotion that addects my overall gambling experience.

I’m winning on the other game and lose on the other one. This makes me tilted to become aggressive on betting and the result is terrible. Winning gambling is already very hard when you are already focus on one game, adding more games at once will surely increase your risk since you are battling on multiple house edge that is fixed per games of your choice.

If I were you, I would fix the starting post and not use capslock anymore as many forum members don't like it. Your conclusions have nothing to do with logic and I can easily refute it.

1. Why would I spend more money betting on different sports if I limit the amount of money I can spend on gambling?

2. The probability of getting a gambling addiction does not depend on the sports a gambler bets on. Someone bets only on soccer and has a gambling addiction, and someone bets on several sports and does not have a gambling addiction, but plays for fun.

3. The odds of winning are always about the same regardless of whether you bet only on soccer matches or add cricket, horse racing, basketball and others. The odds of winning increase and decrease only from your knowledge and luck.

Maybe there are many other reasons but gamblers don't care about that because they will continue to gamble at every opportunity. Gamblers can continue gambling as long as they can control themselves because many gamblers have lost control of themselves and become addicted to gambling. If you feel unable or unable to control yourself and are afraid of losing a lot of money when gambling, you don't need to gamble and it's better to just save the money.

Gambling is a choice and each person will determine it. If they think they can gamble with self-control, they can gamble but if not, it's better not to gamble. Gambling or not gambling will depend on each individual and there is no compulsion to gamble. You are free to choose.

Which other reason?

Simply that if you try to do several things at the same time you are going to have less concentration than if you do only one, therefore you are going to gamble but and potentially lose more money.

In poker playing more than one table can boost your winnings but playing too many tables can reduce them, so you have to find a balance. In the same way it is recommended that you do not turn on the TV or check email while playing, as you distract your attention and your winnings will be affected.

In whatever place you live in, you may or may not have the luxury to gamble gamble on one game or more. I do not agree with your point of view because I think it is totally dependent of the individual. While some people may not be able to manage it for some reasons, some other people may be good at table games like Poker, and still love slot, and still fancy sports betting.
It doesn't matter as long as the person is gambling responsibly.

I don't think that there is wrong in engaging on different sports and games if your sole purpose is to enjoy and explore. In this way, the gambler can also discover what type of gambling activity is best suited for him and which game is more enjoyable. Because these are the very reason why different gambling games were developed and that is to have a variety where gamblers can freely choose from. Because it will be unexciting if you just stick into a single game. The only problem here depends on the person, if he/she was not able to control himself and that is your mistake. As long as you follow and stick to the budget that you set, there will be no problem at all. Afterall, the very reason why we engage to it is to enjoy and forgot our problems just for once. You just need to be responsible and have control.

Well, you are using (gambling-signature)
Are you a gambler? or not.
Yes. It is confusing. He is wearing gambling signature, but he is unlikely supporting gambling industry.  Undecided

To many thread like these, actually not really needed to be reminded and most the time people already know. Most people in here, I believe gambling 80% using the signature payment or freelance jobs.
Agree. It is something that average gamblers understand it enough.
People who often gamble must know that he will spend more money and time when they gamble in many gambling games or varied casino sites.

According to OP; I can sense that there is lack of strategy or organization. As a gambler, even while your sole aim for gambling is to make good amount of money; you need to have a strategy and a gambling budget one that you cannot exceed no matter what.
Indeed. Every gambler needs a certain strategy to gamble properly. He needs to have good financial management and never tries gambling excessively. So, I don't believe if a true gambler will gamble in too many gambling games. Each gambler is probably comfortable to play certain games. I'm sure they will focus to play in the games that they feel most comfortable.
