Topic: Recording gambling activities - page 4. (Read 1234 times)

In terms of business, a yearly profit or loss is calculated by calculating how much I sold, how much I bought, how much product is left, and I think it should be calculated in the same way in gambling. Like how many gambles I played in a month, how many results went in my favor, how many went against me, how many matches I won, how much profit, how many losses, how much loss. If we can calculate in this way then at the end of every month we will have a clear idea whether we are moving in the right direction or in the wrong direction in gambling. I think most gamblers do not calculate this but it is very important for every gambler.

What ever it is, recording of gambling activity would do for the rich same it'll do for the low roller. Nothing differentiates these players when it comes to strategical moves. Money is the only unique thing about these two types of players. Hence, if a low roller learns to track his gambling activity, he'll get the following benefits; documentation, change in wagering habit, if.high, and references. Gamblers who keep records feel a bit more accountable to how much has left them for gambling reasons. This can minimize the rate a player involves in the gambling. Players who don't keep record may not have the hardcopy of their gambling activities. Casinos also shows on dashboard how much a player has spent gambling.

Something just came up in my mind and I feel it will be good for me to bring it up here because it can benefit some people to make a better decision or adjust gambling habits.  

Do you take record of every game played for the year or month or week, then calculate the number of total games that was won and lose. I feel calculating the total amount of lose can help one to adjust gambling habit of playing frequently and also to reduce the amount of money that is spent on gambling. I think when the amount of lose is too much in gambling it is either affecting one financially or turning one to become addictive to gambling.

The only reason for recording gambling activities imo is to track how much is lost and to realize when to stop, when it is enough for this week or month. All other stats are so random and unconstant, that it is impossible to build any analisys on that. I hope everyone understand, that there is no win strategy from result analysis in gambling.

Partly, you have a good point with your opinion but that doesn't fit to most gamblers not all people can adopt with your mindset. We can't motivate a person by just saying don't let emotion affect the game plan, yes it really will affect by most weak hearted individuals. Their aim is always winnings, because they always thought gambling could profit them all the time, that's why frustrations always happens just because they're ambitious and got a wrong perspectives. It's hard for a gambler to become smarter enough, maybe if they'll mature enough and experience should be the most important aspects.

Not necessarily. You can still track your gambling activities even without starting with a small amount. It’s up to you. As a gambler, sometimes we ambitiously think we can turn gambling into a sustainable activity, like making a living from it. If that is the goal, you cannot just start with a large amount of money without ensuring you can already do it. You need to be consistent to be profitable, so you need to experiment first by starting with a small amount and then gradually increasing when you feel confident that you are making money.

What's important is that you don't let your emotions affect your game plan. You need to be smart and follow your strategy with discipline, so you won't panic when you experience a losing streak.

This is a great way to get a gambler away from gambling. Everything in history is recorded or stored. If records or data are to be kept, a gambler keeps a record of his losses or wins. Then he will come to realize at some point, the difference between his victory and defeat and how he has destroyed his own life. With this record book, a gambler can easily take account of the profit and loss happening in his life and he can easily wean himself from gambling by seeing this information.

Most or I would say all casinos now have the betting history and records of your bets inside their platform, this feature is very important in all casinos and would show you detailed betting information for last 6 months or more. Usually most gamblers are using different casinos at the same time, so all you have to do is calculating the total amount from all the casinos. I really suggest for anyone to keep record on your gambling bets and activity, for a main reason which is monitoring your activities to control them.
Personally, I have even recorded video clips on my bets, especially higher stake bets, eventually, having a total statement about that would happen you adjust it much easier. Mostly, you would see how much did you spend and how much you could withdraw from gambling.

When I make investments, like a few ones I am currently into, or if I add more money to my business, I always keep track of the monthly turnovers. If I am making a budget for my needs and spending every month, I keep records on frequent occasions, but in terms of gambling, I don't keep any records. I can only have a budget to spend $5 today on gambling, but after that, nothing like record-keeping. I can't even remember the exact amount I won in my last spot bet unless I go back to my casino to check for the record there. 

I don't actually think that keeping a record of one's gambling activity can help the person be a better gambler.

Yes, just like me on which it is really something that i dont want to do on the moment that i have lost money on which i wont really be tending to look back because it would really be that making things worst on which on the moment that you've seen that your loses are becoming bigger then it would really be that impulsive and the worst thing is that you would really be that playing even more on which it would be causing even more loses.
This is why it would be important that on the moment that you are playing gambling then you should really be that not tending to look back on how much you do lost. Just make it sure that the amounts that you are using is really just that only on the amount that you can afford to lose and not something that spending your life savings on which majority is really that been doing and this is why they do mess up.

You should really be that careful when it comes to gambling whether you would really be tracking your activity or not. The main key on here is that moderation and control with your mind and emotions.
Because if you dont have these things then most likely you would really be that losing money and something that could mess up your life if you wont be that careful on the actions that you are taking.
This is why you should really be that considerable on taking up such decisions or steps.

I this is only applicable for those huge capital gamblers in order to monitor their progress, keeping a record is safe and secure as well as the visibility will be more clear if a gambler got massive wins or loss.

Rather than recording the number of losses and the number of wins, I’d say record the amount you lose and the amount you win. This is how you can truly tell if you’re on the winning side or on the losing side. And I know that this will help curb gambling addiction and activities if the gambler notices that over the past months, despite not feeling like they’ve been losing, they have actually lost a lot.
