Once you do chase up on winning on gambling then you are just basically putting up yourself on potential trouble with gambling addiction because it shouldnt really be treated up this way.
You are really that putting up yourself on such big trouble when it comes to gambling addiction. We've seen tons of those stories about addiction but only a few do able to recover
some do really have that kind of situation but majority do really mess up their lives just because of too much addiction and this is why it would really be best that you should really be
that wary on the actions that you are making if you dont want to mess up your life then you should really be that responsible on the things that you are dealing on.

I agree with you that winning in gambling is not to be chased, because by chasing it it will actually make us lose more money, also with losses that will occur more often at the end of the gambling we do. Apart from that, we also have to be aware that when gambling is done, there are wins and losses, and we have to be able to think about losses that will occur more often with many people experiencing big losses because of gambling, maybe they forget this, so when they gamble they only think about winning so that when they lose they still think they can win by gambling again.

I think I can say that with 10x the gambling done, it will probably only result in winning once or twice, or even not winning at all. I agree with you that's right they should be able to realize that hahaha.
Of course the casino wants every player to be addicted because that way they will make a profit and they will not gamble with what happens to the person who is addicted, even if their life is ruined, because their goal is only profit.

At some point when someone is an addicts, it means that they are uncomfortably involved in the addictive activities and can't help themselves,  sometimes it will be due to the way they act and behave that make people to know that they are addicted,  and at that point they will be needing help externally,  the addicts vital contributions will be if he wish and have recognised his helpless state and ready to come out of it at some point, this is what gives them the motivation to be able to fight through the process of overcoming they addictions on the long run.

Sometimes also taking gambling as a side hustle is totally wrong and such mindset is what have contributes to the high rate of gambling addictions that we recorded lately.

I think no one wishes to become addicted to gambling or anything in general because every person knows the fact that addiction is a curse and you wouldn't your personality to carry a curse with itself. However, some people lack patience and self-control which is the reason why can't control the urge once they start to get deeper into it even if they hadn't planned to do that at the time when they were starting to gamble.

A person might know that they can get addicted to gambling if they gamble a lot, and if they still do it, it is simply because they aren't able to control their emotions and their emotions are controlling them and driving them to do things that they have originally planned not to do.

What gamblers must do is be aware that victory is not what must be pursued when gambling, if indeed that is the main target, gamblers should be mentally prepared when they experience defeat, when playing gambling they must know that besides winning there are also losses, that is why it is important to be aware of this because not all gamblers are aware of this, most of them want to win without wanting to lose, even though everyone who gambles will definitely lose and will not always win.

If you just look at the statistics of playing in a casino, the number of losses is definitely much more than the wins, why is that because casinos were created for entertainment for rich people and most poor people try their luck to make money on gambling sites which in the end actually benefits the gambling sites when many gamblers are addicted to gambling, they are happy that there are many gambling addicts because without them casinos will be empty of players and will not have a steady income, it would be a lie if there are gambling sites that want and limit people from being addicted to gambling, they really want all gamblers to become addicted. people have to be aware of that 

You might be right but I could not agree with you as many people can't gamble with his/her own money. Instead of owning money, the person uses his/her parents as well as relatives' funds when the person has no option to use his/her money. And even fall into various abnormal activities to fulfill his/her gambling addiction.

Addicted to gambling can ruin your life without takes too long. It's already happens to many people out there even many young people already addicted to gambling without they realize about that. Their minds will not thinks about doing another thing besides of gambling because that is not important to them. If someone already addicted to gambling, he must realize about this and have intention to solve his problems with the help from other people so they can cure their addiction. But many people can't realize about their addiction and still playing gambling without control and that makes them becomes deeper in gambling. They don't have someone that they can trust to asked helps so they still in gambling with their addiction.

What I can conclude here is that we should get prepared for the worst as gamblers, we should know that gambling is risky and no one can ever have it all no matter how good and lucky they are doing it. Fine, some aspects of gambling are better blesser than other aspects. Take for instance, I do have my consistent winning which is against your view about sports betting, which makes me believe that the aspects and options we opt for matter too in terms of the risks, and we can't entirely say that we can't achieve our aim in gambling. However, the sacrifice here is that since I opt for the low-risk kind of option, the money I make is also little. But it is fine because it is better to win little that is consistent than to gain high in an inconsistent manner. This inconsistency could even put the gambler in trouble if care is not taken and cause the ruin of his gambling account.

Above all, let us continue to bet smartly, and the best way to do this is to know the best aspect of gambling that has the money and also the minimal risk possible. Even with that minimal risk, we should still get set for the best managerial approach that will make it even less bitting if we ever lose through it. Doing these can make us better gamblers, but due to greed, people often shun them. I can still count many people I informed about my gambling approach but due to the low money being gained from it, they often shun it and opt for the risky ones that would deliver to them higher money. The end has always been regretful for them since the higher risks make them fail. But still, they do not change as they believe that gaining huge at once is better than the consistent winning approach. This is in fact a poor mindset towards gambling and I wonder how they can ever be successful gamblers by shunning a safer approach to it.

No one is a kid anymore, we deal with different kind of scenario every day. A single person gambling, especially the young that's not even up to 21 years? That's the actual end of developing phase on his or her end because everything valuable will be push to gambling and we know how hard it is to gain financial freedom down here. Stigmatization comes in because there's no significant changes for gambling addicts, instead they grown to become worse than the present state.

Most gambling stories are similar, and start of the same way as everyone else's

It begins with them just playing casually, with some even playing just for the hell of it and not really because they want to earn money or something. And then they lose, which makes them frustrated and hungry to take back whatever they lost and win some more in the process. It pushes them to spend more, and more, and even more until such a time happens when they find themselves revenge gambling not only their initial bankroll, but even their savings, money they owed from someone else, and even more.

By the time they realize they have been addicted to gambling, they think it's too late and the guilt and shame of losing everything over a stupid thing makes them commit to it even more, instead of stopping and quitting gambling by the instance they realize shit just got real, they play some more in hopes of getting that bag that will never come, and it never comes.

The cycle continues until they finally stand up for themselves or die, that's the gambling addiction story. That's how it goes for everyone. Now, do you want to be a cautionary tale, or do you want to discipline yourself from gambling too much? Make the choice before gambling does it for you.

The point in this case still comes back to our own self-control so as not to make the situation complicated in the end.
We already know what gambling is like and its effects will be very dangerous but when we can position ourselves well, it is possible that the results that become misery can be minimised because we do not need to risk more in gambling because after all we know that defeat is a sure thing even if it is based on luck. Not that we don't believe in luck in this case but we need to be more selective about the reality of the existing gambling system.

It's just that this kind of thing is also still very difficult because however when a game in gambling has become intense in the end the rationality we have will disappear over time because we cannot control ourselves properly.

in fact, more and more people are finding it difficult to get out of gambling addiction without losing something valuable as their finances become worse. or even a broken family.
Being a responsible gambler depends on the gambler's views and principles. if they cannot control their gambling activities, then it will be very bad in the long run.
Therefore, it is important for a gambler who has just started his activity to be informed of the risks of gambling. so they will form a principle that will limit the gambling carried out.
I don't know how many gamblers have managed to control their gambling well. but I see that more people receive the negative impacts of gambling addiction.

Gambling can be fun, but it can also be dangerous. Some people can become addicted to gambling, which can make their lives and the lives of their loved ones really hard. Getting over an addiction is tough and usually takes a long time. People who are addicted to gambling often need help from their family, friends, or professionals to get better.
It’s important to be careful when gambling and to know the risks. People should be taught about these risks and how to gamble responsibly. This means setting limits and knowing when to stop.
Gambling can indeed be enjoyable, but one needs to do it safely and not let it take over your life.

Absolutely mate gambling can make us happy of course we all know that thing and also we know that gambling can make our life misserible. Cause being addicted to a game we can not say that we can get out easily in short it will take years to leave in gambling world once we involve in to addiction. And also it can not happen with our own it will need some people, a family member, or a friend to get over it cause addiction can not be beaten by the asdi t himself.

No matter the kind of decision anyone is taking in this life, put your family into consideration because they are the most important people in your life, whatever that happens to you whether good or bad your family will be the first to get to you that is why they should be treated with higher priority before any other thing. Gambling have disorganized many peaceful homes, caused conflicts between one another and has ruined a lot of people so it should be followed with caution.

It is always difficult to quit gambling when you have started playing but if you apply wisdom while gambling, you may not face too many problems. The major reason why some people becomes addicted is when they feel that gambling will change their situation if they win and such people continuously plays gambling with everything they have and at the end of the day nothing to show for, instead of winning they even get into losses.

Gambling is wild, trust me. You cant just start; you need knowledge. This game hooks everyone, good and bad. Control is the key to success. Self-control. Believing in oneself.

Allow me to clarify. Gambling isnt job-related. Its like those risky stocks everyone talks about but nobody understands. You assume its a side gig for easy money? Thats a loser's mindset. Smart money realizes this game is unfair.

Im not completely against gambling. You want fun, okay. Limits are the way. You need limits. Know when to quit and never overbet. This is amusement, not pay. The casino and house have the advantage. Play wisely, play safe, and you may win.

In my opinion, we should also be able to be responsible for the actions we take ourselves, if we really dare to act then we should be able to take responsibility for the actions carried out by ourselves, not by other people, including gambling, gambling which is more domain ends in defeat because of our actions. also with the losses obtained in gambling which is done on the basis of oneself, the losses that often occur must be accepted well when the money is gambled in gambling we must be able to be responsible well, be able to think about the big risks that will occur if we gambling excessively.

What you say is correct, this is often forgotten or put aside, because when gambling, it is very likely that gambling can influence our thinking. and can make us forget about other things. If we do gamble, we must be conscious, conscious here means being aware that gambling cannot give you a definite win, being aware of the risk of losing for sure, and being aware of the bad effects that can occur if we gamble too much.

The fact that you can earn money by gambling on a regular basis is a myth, and the most important thing here is that even many adults want to believe in it. Thus, they escape into the reality they created, but this is all an illusion. They begin to understand this when they reach the bottom, but no one is to blame for this except them. Of course, men must set the right priorities in their lives, and there cannot be a higher priority than family, at least for me. And gambling is something that can lead a morally weak and dependent person astray from the right path. Although I admit, sometimes I had thoughts of giving up everything and putting all my money on a bet that would change my life for the better. But here you should always remember that a worse outcome is possible, which few people think about when they enter the game.

First, we have to understand what gambling is, if we understand that, then it will be easier for us to classify it. I mean whether gambling is safe if done without restrictions or not, and of course if we understand gambling we will definitely say that gambling will be safe if we do it with very strict limits. Because if not then we will lose everything.
The reason is quite clear and basic, because gambling is something that is very risky and the chance of winning will not be greater than the chance of losing and this is also very related to luck. Luck is something that cannot be predicted, and in gambling if you want to win it requires a lot of luck. Meanwhile, we know that luck only comes once in a while and that is what means that in the end we will suffer more defeats than wins.
Therefore, we must still adhere to what not to do when we gamble, this will really help us to be responsible gamblers.

Playing gambling in the hope of winning will not gives much chances to them except have a chance to lose their money. Many people are trying doing that but they can't win from gambling. That's why they must control themselves and not thinks about trying to win the gambling games. They can win from gambling but they must realizes that will difficult as gambling is not a way to make money. If they can win, they must thinks that is a bonus for them and not thinks about to continue playing gambling because that can makes them losing their win money.

They must control their greed not to become big so they can still playing gambling in the other days. But it's not easy if they already addicted to gambling and wants to recovered their addicted to gambling because they must trying no matter if that's difficult. It needs more power to lift the problem and cure the addicted to gambling and needs more time if they don't gets more supports.
