I met a friend who used about $1 to play gamble to win about $2500 in a game of different matches, all the early games went well but the last game cut which made him loose the game. This lose made him to be sick for 3 days, the reason for his reaction was not because of the money he used to bet but he felt so bad because he has already put all his hope on the money he would have won.

People needs not to put all their hope in games they are not sure of winning, because relying on it can be very dangerous to the mental health. Play gamble and remove your mind from the money that will be gained till it is achieved.

People need to understand that gambling is a two-way activity- results can go either way.

Sure, a person may experience a winning streak that may result to him winning significant amounts of cash. But that does not mean that his subsequent games will continue the fire- in fact, the more the person gambles, the more chances that they lose at the end due to the presence of "house-edge" or the edge that gambling platforms have for their profit.

If a person truly wants to capitalize on their winnings, then better to treat gambling as a form of entertainment rather than a source of money.

Every person needs to understand or at least needs to find his purpose or goal of doing gambling. To finding the motive of gambling in your life is too much important. If anyone is in the gambling to meet his daily day to day expenses then he is totally on a wrong track.

For sure he will not be able to win daily or consistently in gambling and when he knows that he has to get money from gambling in order to run his house , this will add a lot of mental pressure and can cause serious health issues for him.

Gambling if it is not curtailed will mess up the mental health of The Gambler. It is not a side hustle it is a very risky investment that a lot of people carry out with levity and expect a different outcome each time. I am going about the mental health aspect if you are not strong full company quit it immediately for the sake of your mental health and for all those in your family.

That’s exactly the reason why a weak person should not be involved in gambling because if he can’t control and discipline himself, he will really fall into gambling addiction and eventually affect his mental health if he’s not eager to set limits for himself. While some addicts have still managed to gamble responsibly, but mostly of them have resorted into levity and do things inaccurately.

Gambling definitely has some unhealthy effect on the mental health of anyone especially when it has turned addiction, it can cause ruin when not controlled and this is most common with people who have little to no self control or what we can consider a weak person, but the enticement to make money sometimes is the reason some of these persons could possibly not resist getting involved.

It's important people know how well their mental health can tolerate certain things before getting involved so as not to suffer issues resulting from such involvement in the nearest future, they should also understand that what they are about venturing into isn't a guaranteed money source so if for any reason it turns against them they should be ready to accept the outcome, that way they get to have less effect on their mental health as they were already prepared for any possible outcome.

I have witnessed this kind of scenerio too where the gambler was sure that his last game on the bet would be successful but it later turned out to be wrong. I his own case he had already gathered his friends in drinking joint to celebrate the expected victory while they were still watching the game live in that same joint and viewing center. The funny thing is that the bar tender didn't bother to stop any of them from drinking in the gamblers name on credit since he instructed them. Behold as the game of football is not determined until the final whistle (FT) , the game atmosphere changed and there was a deafening silence at the joint because the gambling was losing the game and finally, it ended against the bet and that was how he lost about $7,000 plus the debts accumulated from the drinks at the bar.

So your friend in question is lucky no expenses is incurred on him yet.. In the game of football , it is not over until the last whistle .

At the last game, people usually build that kind of confidence and expectation for winning the bet especially if it is a longtime you have been losing. But the solution to this is to cash out to avoid the pressure and uncertainty of winning.

I was also like your friend where I lost in a row and it made me sick because I thought too much about my defeat. We don't need to be too naive to say that a gambler must be able to control their emotions because that is a natural thing and the average gambler has experienced this. But as time passes and experience increases, I think a gambler can control their emotions and become more mature in their game.

It is very good for us to understand ourselves and make sure we plan ourselves before going for anything we want to do. Emotions is one of the things that had made lots of people to keep falling to loses after they have made some good winnings. We need to manage our emotions so that we can do things that would help us well as a gambler of not taking further steps to trying too hard to win when we can easily and patiently book games and go on with the luck of winning. Those that emotions had dealt with will understand what they pass through just to stay confidence non emotional.

That happens if we experience consecutive losses so that we will lose self-control and even our emotions will increase along with the loss. We normally feel angry and sad about loss, but we can prevent consecutive losses by immediately stopping after losing several times. That is also what makes us have to learn about self-control seriously to know when to stop gambling before experiencing consecutive losses. By always practicing self-control, we can prevent those losing streaks and can even control our emotions so that we can become more mature and will not try to recover from previous losses.

There is the cashout button in most well reputable casinos and not only in cryptocurrencies ones but also in the FIAT casinos,they let you use a cashout button in the middle of the games that are being played.Your friend should not let it run during all the games the ticket,if he won the early games he would have done the best to cashout whatever amount the casino where he placed the bet offered him.If such casino didn't offer this option then immediately stop playing there as it means they are not giving all available options to play for.

Letting the ticket run and hoping to have already won the ticket is the worst mistake a gambler can make.

One several occasions I have been trying able to grab a substantial amount in cash out from my current casinos stake and this have to be properly calculated and if you must profits from this cash-out feature then you have to be very calculative enough to be able to make something significant more so it helps not to lose the entirstsked amount in a situation where the current game result is already negative against you as the gambler.

More again one needs to be very active in both the casinos and watching the live matches because that is the way you can easily walk your way around it to be able to arrive at a good position either taking profits or cutting losses.

Most of the time, be for I use any sport bookie, I first of all check to see if their have cash out the feature before I register, I try as much as possible to avoid casino that doesn't allow cash out in their sports bet session.

You are right that using the cashouts feature will allow you to earn some money, but you must be very strategic and anticipate when the feature will work in your favour. No matter how analytical you are, you can only take gains that are significantly lower than your potential winning when using the cash out feature to cut losses or take profits.

I can only speak for myself, but I don't think I'll use the cash out feature any longer because I don't think the profit is worthwhile, and if I lose the game, it wasn't my fault because I already consider the money I bet as money lost and no longer in my plans.

$1 to get $2500 in sports betting is very difficult to happen because he will need to choose a lot of matches or choose high odds whose chances of being correct are very difficult, so he should already understand this so that losing doesn't make him suffer just because he lost $1, because profits that have not yet become money that can be withdrawn are not profits so it's cannot be said to be losses
If a gambler has difficulty accepting defeat, he will gradually experience mental disorders which will also damage his physical health. It is better for you to advise your friends to be more mature in responding to the results in gambling because there is no guaranteed win in gambling.

Yes, that's right, this is an important point in gambling, namely setting limits so that it doesn't have an impact on our mental condition and financial condition.
If gambling causes your financial condition to worsen, of course it will have an impact on your mental condition.
If it cannot be handled well, we will experience continuous stress. don't let that happen to us, we must be able to be disciplined and responsible gamblers and be able to create boundaries so that don't overdo it when gambling because gambling can affect our condition if we can't controls ourselves, and will cause addiction, this will be detrimental to the family and will be difficult to cure because this is a serious case for gambling addicts whose mental health has been affected.

I understand his situation and the most painful part of his experience is that he was close to winning big. How will one put his trust in what he is not sure of? It like counting the chicks when the eggs have not been hatched. Gambling is a game of luck and gamblers should understand that it will not always go the way they expected. This the main reason why relying on gambling to meet a personal need is a big blunder.

Your friend has to forget about the past and move on. It is nice that he just feel sick for few days and recovered. There are cases where gamblers fall into deep depression and abnormal mental state. If these these health issues are to well handled it could lead to even severe medical situation and even suicide. When you are making you plan never include gambling as a source of revenue. If you are lucky to win, use the win and meet some need in your budget.

This feature of cashing out balance is the reason why I choose Stake over other casinos since its cashout features have helped me to take profits in bets a lot of times.

Cashing out and taking profits is not a bad idea at all it’s helps recover your staked amount and probably a little profit from the game but these casinos are so good that they will still weigh the game and the possible outcome and will never never let you cashout a reasonable amount. There was a time in my early gambling days when i was never lucky and experienced a long losing streak, i played a parley bet just as the friend of OP did and after multiple selections my game was moving just as planned so all games entered so i was left with just one game to go so i got scare and didn’t want to experience another loss so I decided to cashout and take profits just as you said but little did i know that it would have been the end of my losing streak. I cashed out 7k in my local currency where I would have won 35k, the game later ended as I predicted i was so angry with myself and since then I vowed never to cashout no matter what since I already have in mind that any money I gamble with is money i can afford to lose.

What’s fascinating is how he can can be sure to the point on relying already to the potential profit to a bet which has 1:2500 odds of winning. It’s small chance of winning which you can safely considered your bet to lose after it was place due to the difficulty of that bet to win.

It’s not wrong to think about the possibility of winning but not to the point of being sick after the bet lose considering how low the winning rate is. I will understand if he place a million dollar bet to a 1.01 odds to win since this kind of bet has low chance of losing and it’s really upsetting once you still lose with that kind of odds.

ofc reliable income through gambling is not sustainable. Be careful tryint to use bonuses to earn also.

It’s not only sustainable it’s also highly unadvisable because we will be filled with disappointment like the Op, one thing is that we should always have a source and means of earning and gambling can just be use as mean of trying luck if we can win extra money which can help us grow.

Bonus I see that as one of the annoying way of scamming gamblers we get deceived by the amount that’s giving to us as bonus but the wager that is required to clear off that bonus is one thing that looks like we are just working for the casino, bonuses unless for those who are always lucky enough to clear up the requirement if not I see it as a means of reducing winning chances.

Bonuses in some cases make you unable to withdraw the little wins you are able to have gathered at times, because the wager on it will sometimes require you to win almost twice the amount and in most case the chances are very very slim so you may end up still loosing everything to the casino, it's more likely a bait to attract more gambler to their platform so they can make more profits.

Winning doesn't really affect the mental health what really does affect the mental health I think is losses, when there is a continues series of losses, the person experiencing such tends to loose their minds aswell and in some cases try to want to get back at the casino by staking bigger in oder to win big and probably recover all they have lost o far and most times they end up in even more losses than they would if they were not playing with such mindset, it's always advised you play for fun and play responsibly that way you keep yourself at lesser risk .

Become reliant on anything can be argued as a bad thing. I know a guy who is over 30+ years old and still lives and relies on his mother. Is that a healthy thing? No. Neither is relying on gambling is just as bad. Perhaps even worse. People need to learn how to discipline themselves, because the main problem is that these dysfunctional adults do not actually care about setting up frameworks of making themselves into better people. Therefore they have no rules set in place.

emotionally immature or irresponsible people should not gamble in the first place.

People who do this are people who badly need money and are looking to make money from gambling, hoping to win is something you don't or never apply in gambling, it is a game of chance you never know when winning is going to come or it will never come at all, people who still believe that there is money to be made in gambling are deceived they are motivated by people who show off their winnings and try to duplicate it in their session because they believe that if other can do this why not them they think they are better than the others or they are the next luck winners.

We should free ourselves from the thought that we could be the next lucky winner in gambling, if it's going to happen it will happen, and sometimes, or most of the time it happens when we least expect it.

No matter how seriously one needs money, relying on gamble wins to get financial aid is one of the dumbest things for anyone to do and one of the easiest ways to attract mental disorder. When you place ur hope on winning gambles, it's very likely that you might not end up winning and it'll go a long way to ruin such persons mental health since he was hoping to solve his financial problems from the proceeds of his gambles.
Some people believe that they're sure games that whenever you gamble on them, there's a guarantee that you'll end up winning such gamble and that is a belief that's rendered many useless. There's no such thing like sure games and that's why whenever one gambles he should always have it at the back of his mind that he's likely to lose his money instead of relying on wins

Gambling cannot be a means of making money. I personally think the probability of making money from gambling is 30%. And the probability of losing money is 70%. If we bet on a game, and I bet that the stronger team will win, considering the odds, I can't be safe. I am likely to lose money. And I myself have lost money in many football matches. And so if anyone considers gambling as a means of making money, he is living in a fool's kingdom.

Gambling should only be considered a game. It cannot be relied upon. You can do this for peace of mind. But if someone wants to make money from gambling then I say he should stay away from gambling. Because I have seen many people who win the first few bets. They win small bets. And yet they have become more greedy. And when they bet a large amount of money, they lost all of theri money. So, stay away from gambling if anyone thought that this is a source of income.
