Topic: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. - page 29. (Read 4904 times)

Definitely, once you keep winning in gambling, you get addicted to the feeling of it, and it can be tempting to keep on going. But keep in your mind that your luck can change at any moment, or else you won't notice that you already lost all your winnings in one snap. Setting limits for ourselves and knowing when to walk away can help us avoid losing everything we've won. Gamble responsibly within your means and be mindful, to refrain from any difficult and stressful problem you may encounter once you get addicted to it. 

Obviously addiction started after you win some good amount of money and it will make you to gamble more by wishing you will make more money. Even though win some of good amount money is the first reason why someone get addicted, but multiple lose streak is another important reason of addiction. Because if someone didn't suffer multiple lose streak, it's mean the gambler is winning isn't?

It might happen become addicted despite never getting a big win, because everyone will have a different response to the results of the gambling they experience, some end up giving up because they lost, but it doesn't rule out the possibility that they are curious because they are involved in gambling because they see friends or anyone who wins by a very large amount, so you don't need to win to eventually become addicted and usually people who are addicted are those who cannot control their thoughts properly, so they always think of gambling and whenever temptation comes they will immediately do it because they have no self-control, but those who can control themselves will never experience any obstacles including when there is an opportunity to gamble but do not do it for other reasons and activities that are far more important.

No one can say that they are no longer committing mistake, even experienced gamblers sometimes exceed from their limits, what is good among them is they are willing to forget about it and manage to move forward after, unlike with addicted gamblers, they will do everything to continue up to the point that they will use the last money that they have from their savings, the mindset is far different between experience gamblers and those who are already addicted.

Experienced gamblers can control their lust and desire, while amateur will always think that they can take money if they will continue to try,

The rest of it will be dictate with what the outcome will turn. Worst, an amateur will turn to addicted gambler.

That's true and that's where you're just getting started and you're going to get more of it once you try again for the 2nd and more around.

The excitement just starts there and then when the taste of winning is in there, that's how it is going to go. You'll keep to do more of it and likely think that winning is easy and you can do it at most times, that's when you'll try more rounds until you've got nothing left anymore.

Yup, that's even more dangerous because you're craving to win and that's why you'll keep going until you finally get some wins.

Not really but everything that contributes to the excitement and crave that you're having, winning is one of it.

of course they will prefer to control themselves well even though they have experienced the same problem in the past but experienced gamblers will have good control in the future without doing bad things again unless addiction continues to destroy self control. but sometimes experienced gamblers sometimes still make mistakes in the future when one day a losing streak occurs and he loses control and is more emotional to be motivated to chase these losses but it rarely happens like that.
I think all of this is just about self control which we say is easy but very difficult to do because gambling risks money so when you lose the money regret and the feeling of wanting to take the money back is always in the gambler mind.

Well , I believe that this is what beginners luck says>? I remember those first days that I start gambling and indeed, I turn to be lucky but eventually as days gone by and gambling continues? I experiences losses and till now? i never remember that I gain more than how much I losses over the years.

so Indeed that gambling is a place where people tend to lose and not actually to win . there is a small percentage that people are winning and high percent that losing.

but eventhough? still gambling becomes one of the most in demand vices in the world.

so if you don't wanna face those cases then better not to engage more in gambling and just
use this to unwind and fiind happiness and never to be your source of Income because surely you will fail.

Depends on how the gambler control himself when playing. It's true that winning for the first time can lead to addiction but it doesn't mean all gamblers are bound to that situation since we have our own way of thinking. Based on my experience, if you win it's likely you'll gamble again due to the good experience you had for the first time. However, we're not all the same so the result for each gamblers are always different.

Indeed. If you gamble and become addicted, it's your fault for not controlling yourself and letting gambling influenced you negatively.

Exactly, any advice could easily forget if you are already gambling especially if you started with a win. The common thing you would do as a gambler is to gambling once again since you've won from the start then not knowing that you slowly losing all the profits from the win then your own money as well. It's like if you are in the battle mid fight where you can't think logically and would just swing your sword. The influence of gambling is actually on the process while you are playing to win, due to eagerness to recover what you've lost or wanting to win huge amount of profit. They couldn't even think about those advices here, it will be a late realization after the gambling. Sometimes despite that experience they would still gambling just hoping that they will be lucky to recover those losses.

It's true. Both ways can make a gambler an addict to the game that he plays. Either it's losing or winning.
But I think I will focus on the factor of losing because that's the normal thing that will happen if you start playing in gambling sites. Like they say, the house will always win.
Here is an example.

When a gambler is in that position, he tends to wait for the RTP to click and it might take longer before it happens, depending on the seed and the time. It could take an hour or two or worst, many hours. The other thing that might happen is stopping at that position and increasing the bets which I think is not recommended, that is reckless gambling. I tried it before and it just made things worst.
So, as he goes on trying to chase the loss, the addiction might already be triggered and if the RTP doesn't hit he will try to chase it on other games.
This is the reason why I don't like calculating losses, you tend to be glued to how much you want to chase and it makes you greedy.

A person who comes to gambling for the very first time may feel a lot of excitement but at the same time, he may be fearful too of losing the money. He would have mixed emotions initially.

I think if he loses his first few games, he may say bad words about gambling or maybe quit it for some time but if he wins, he would be happy but he would not become addicted to it. Addiction only starts when you play too much gambling that all the losses won't matter to you and you still keep on playing. I would call it a state of mind, where the gamblers fail to understand the drawback of excessive gambling.

I believe this has already been discussed in similar threads in the section. Yes, what gets you hooked is winning, and especially winning a big jackpot, not small prizes.


I think you are wrong on this. What the OP is talking about is the scenario of someone who gambles for the first time, and what you say is true but when he has been gambling for a long time. So someone who has been gambling for a while and has developed addiction or other problematic behaviour if they have a losing streak will try to chase their losses, go for more money or even borrow it, but someone who is starting out and losing money gets bored and doesn't gamble when they lose the money they have decided to gamble.

I also think so, for me a person who is going to fall into addiction does not start when he has a winning streak, in fact, for a person who has the profile of a winning streak and is very addictive, it doesn't even matter. This is very important, because in the brain of that player he will only have to play and play so that his profits are maximum, he is that type of person who, if they do not have impressive profits, will not leave, and that is where the problem lies, because it is something that is practically impossible to do in a casino, unless you have a very large balance and try to take it higher, it is something that at least I do not see as viable, less if it is done in an inconsistent way, which is not play well, make bets for the sake of making them, and anyone looking for big wins in a casino is wrong and yes, you could be heading straight for addiction.

I would think that the addition begins is when you have a losing streak, because in the winning streak the player is fine, he is calm, he knows that things are going well for him, but in a losing streak things get ugly, the person does not He accepts that he loses so much, he says that it is unfair or that even worse, he lacked money to recover everything, because he already knows how to play to recover what he lost, this is a mistake that addicts make all the time, when you lose you create that need to win to win back, or in retrospect, you create that way of playing anyway because the casino shouldn't beat that person, and fighting or seeking revenge with a casino is the worst thing to do.

In addition, if the person in question runs out of money, he will immediately look for a way to get more money, and that's where a problem starts silently, but you have to pay attention, that's how it starts, and the player when he gets that money , play and lose again, the despair will be greater, because you know that with more money you could have recovered, and that all develops into a difficult problem, which if it is not cut on time, with whatever reason or method, things end very badly, and that is not the idea or what is sought.

What you are referring to can be anger, frustration, or whatever you call it because you have lost money and you want to get it back, that cannot be called greed because greed is when you have got something but you want even more. So when you are winning in gambling, but you don't stop and want to win even more, and for that, you keep gambling and lose everything you have already won, that is what you call greed because you were already in profit but you wanted more.

And, what you mentioned might also become the reason for someone to get addicted to gambling, but that barely happens because most of the time, when you try recovering your money, you tend to lose even more, and most gamblers stop right there because they see they are getting nothing out of it.

That is a tough thing to do mate because remaining composed doesn't have anything to do with guts as this outcome is just a result of being consistent from setting your boundaries, you may plan to do that, it's fine, but once you go overboard, you will start from scratch again because consistency will be a key so that it will be stamped on your brain without even thinking about it. After that, you will always be on the safe side and will prevent yourself from losing beyond control and will end the day with an entertainment experience.

People are hooked whether they win or lose because of the rush and adrenaline, right? Too many of my friends have thought they were on a roll just to watch it all come crashing down. And those retaliation wagers? They're like leaping into a shark-infested pool with a cut on your leg, man

Let's not, however, generalize about all gamblers. I mean, some people (like me) have a plan and a cap. We set a spending limit and adhere to it while having fun. It's similar to going to the movies in that you are aware that you are spending money for amusement but are not doing it to support yourself. It all comes down to having an unyielding will and boundaries. So, my buddy, always remain composed and learn when to distance yourself. Whether you win or lose, the game will be played again

Lucky those who have an environment like you, of course if you hear or are close to someone who has ambition like that you will tell him to stop first and let him calm down before continuing gambling, cases like this are quite dangerous if we cannot control ourselves, we need assistance from a friend who has maturity and responsibility in gambling to remind his friend.
I didn't remind them, because I was researching their behavior in gambling before, but after a few samples I found those who did gambling like this who started with big wins, seemed on average to be impulsive in gambling, and after that I reminded them and gave guidelines for responsible gambling.

They need to change their mindset that by making another deposit, they will get a win because that doesn't guarantee they can get it. What is there is that they can experience more losses and even the money they deposited can run out too. That is why when they have lost in a row, they should immediately stop and leave gambling so they do not want to deposit money again. Or if they get a win, they also have to stop immediately so they don't get greedy because they want another win.

After it's all over, they also have to be able to deal with their increased emotions and maybe they can do some relaxation to reduce the emotional tension. Greed won't give them anything so we have to try to prevent it from getting bigger and we can't control it.

So almost all gamblers who have been gambling for a long time have almost the same experience and keep trying to chase their losses. But when they want to chase wins or try to recover their losses, they are not successful and even if someone manages to get their money back, there will still be losses from previous gambling. But some gamblers can realize their mistake and try to stop it as soon as possible before they get another loss. And that's where they come from, the gamblers try to practice self-control so they don't interfere with their gambling and can still enjoy gambling. And since then, their gambling goal has changed, not chasing wins or recovering from losses.

That's very true because greed makes us forget ourselves and won't realize that what we are doing is a mistake so it can make us lose all the money we have prepared as our budget for a week or a month. To overcome this, we clearly need to learn about discipline so that we can stay on track and we can really have good self-control in gambling. In addition, we must also have a plan for gambling so that we will not sink into gambling. And with all that we learn, we can make gambling entertainment.

If we say otherwise, we do gambling to earn extra money, or make it a living. isn't that also not better. so it would be very natural for someone to say that gambling is fun entertainment, or we can say for fun. after all, now this type of gambling is included in the category of modern entertainment. well, let's be honest. Don't we really realize that gambling has risks in it. if, someone does not want to lose his money at the gambling table. ideally, never even to do gambling. because gambling has a risk in it, if we don't win it means we lose.

It cannot be denied, there are many gamblers who become addicts to it. but not all, gamblers are addicts. interestingly, the point you made was overly dramatic. I thought, it's simple. if you do not want to go down a steep slope, you should not climb the mountain. the phrase "have fun" is a notion so that gamblers don't get stuck in the powerlessness of addiction. With this idea, someone who does gambling does not have to target winning every gambling session. someone who has such an idea, can control the gambling he does. provided that, has limits in each gambling session. or, just spend a few dollars in each session. thus, someone will avoid big losses and even lead to addiction. after all, every gambler, has his own way of how they get around gambling.

Different from compulsive gamblers, usually they will find ways to fulfill their gambling desires even though they don't have money.  the point is, how do you define gambling for yourself. you are free to express it, be it for fun, or according to your understanding and desire. Most importantly, we are fully aware that gambling always involves risks.

Definitely! Developing a gambling addiction is entirely possible, regardless of whether you've scored any winnings or not. Various factors, such as psychological or social aspects, can contribute to gambling addiction. Winning can undeniably play a role in fostering addiction, as the thrill of winning and the allure of more wins can drive a compulsive urge to keep gambling. But, losing money can also be a trigger for addiction, as individuals might chase their losses in a hope to recoup what they've lost.

Yes, the adrenaline rush or that surge of excitement you experience while gambling can frequently contribute to the addictive nature of the activity, but it's only one piece of the puzzle.
