Topic: Relying on gamble wins is dangerous to mental health - page 9. (Read 1157 times)

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.

Yes that's correct. Parlay is very mentally testing, especially if the case is like the one you gave, winning 9 out of 10 is very painful. I'm not a fan of parlays because the chances of winning are very few and too difficult even though they promise fantastic wins

Gambling always plays on the mental and emotional side, because when we lose our minds, we will experience many losses. If it's like that, it's better to stop for a moment and leave the house to get fresh air. This will improve our mental health so that we stay fit

Yes, that's right, especially if you can't limit it, it will usually become an addiction which is usually difficult to cure because it is important for our own mental health, why should we be obsessed with winning in gambling because it will only be a waste of winning in gambling, it's not easy to win or beat? Moreover, bookies restrain themselves from greed which sometimes often makes us lose a lot.

never rely on gambling as a source of income, let alone expect big wins, just enjoy the game because gambling should just be for entertainment, not something that has to make big money and can make ourselves rich in an instant, don't look at those streamers or influencers who gamble because they have Collaborating with casinos, just look at ourselves. Victory in gambling lies in the way we control ourselves in gambling and the way we think about gambling.

Greed will not do us any good, especially if it is gambling, and they will not get anything and will even lose all their money. But many gamblers don't pay attention to this and instead try to chase bigger wins. This will not be achieved easily because they have to face losses that could become bigger. That will only cause even bigger problems because they can experience a gambling addiction, which will be difficult to cure if there is no desire from within them.

Indeed, only a few can apply full self-control and responsibility in gambling. They want to get an even bigger win even though it is greed they are unaware of. And if they still can't realize it, they will get deeper into gambling, and their gambling addiction will get bigger. At that time, they will not think about stopping gambling but will gamble more often.

You're talking about parlay bets, right? Those can really get your emotions running, especially when the early games are going your way and then you stumble in the remaining ones. I'm curious, how many selections did your friend have to include to get odds of 2500? That's pretty darn high, to be honest. You'd need a whole heap of luck to come out on top in that scenario. The most heart-wrenching thing is when you've got a 10-legged parlay, and you're winning the first 9, but then you lose the last one. Man, that's a tough pill to swallow, and it's not something you easily forget.

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.

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.

But some cannot get that feeling if they are losing since they do risky decisions while they are playing that's why aside for thinking that way maybe they should know for theirselves to have limits or other precautionary things so that they will not came to the point that they get stress for unwanted scenario that they may encounter. We know how stressful it is when we talk about starting to lose so to skip those feelings maybe we should know some certain limits regarding on losing and we count how many times we lose so that we can think about quitting since its not good to continue if we cannot feel to win since playing on bad day can totally lose our focus and that messed up everything if we continue all of our activity without thinking about the right thing to do. Its not bad to rely on win if you have experience on how to deal with certain things and doesn't have any hardcore or risk taker attitude.

What always causes people to suffer from illness is their own thoughts, they lose track of time and don't realize when to stop gambling even though they have won before. if you like playing slots then you really depend on luck, rest yourself when you are tired because a fresh mind and body can provide greater winning potential than a tired mind and body.

When I read this thread and saw the amount the guy bet, I honestly confess that I don't understand why he would be depressed, given that the guy only placed $1 on the bet and if he made a multibet bet with many games then he should already know that the risk was very high of getting a bet right and in these cases of multibet bets when a person succeeds, for example in a multibet bet of 10 games with odds of 25.00 and that person manages to get 9 games right, then what is recommended is that this person cancels the bet and keeps the money you won from the 9 bets. but what has happened is that people get greedy and don't want to cancel bets even though they know they put in little money

For example, I have a relative who placed $1 on a bet with odds of 120.00 and he wouldn't accept canceling when he got it right and to make matters worse, he managed to get more than 80% of the games right and when there were only 3 or 2 games left while he he was already winning a lot, I told him to cancel his bet, but he refused to do that because he said they were games that he would win easily, I told him that even those 3 remaining games that had low odds, something like 1.15, he still had a chance of losing , but he insisted that he wouldn't lose a bet so he wouldn't cancel anything

but after he saw the result of the bet, he saw that he lost everything, the guy became depressed, his sad face was visible, then he asked me for money to bet more and the same thing happened again, so I stopped giving him money. I gave him advice and told him that I don't do sports betting anymore, because that was the only way to get him to stop doing sports betting, because his greedy behavior wasn't taking him in the right direction and I already felt guilty.

Gambling is an activity that always controls one's emotions and generally causes one to lose all his/her money including winnings. Generally, someone who earns money from gambling continues to gamble by relying on his/her luck and loses their principal including winnings in gambling. This is due to the person's inability to control their emotions and greed which subsequently causes them to feel psychologically bad and become ill. For this reason, in case of winning money in gambling the person must be able to control their emotions and not continue gambling by relying on their luck in order to avoid consequences that will negatively affect them.

Moreover, in such a situation both the person's health and psychology will be badly affected. For this reason, it is very important for the person to learn to control themselves and their emotions, and not to continue gambling greedily in order not to feel worse after this event and not to continue to feel bad constantly due to this situation.

Being that too optimistic or really that hopeful that you could really be able to win up that big or simply having that fixed mindset that you would be able to reach out that condition or state and on the time that reality fucks up on the thing that you do have in mind then this is where extreme anger would kick in and you would really be ending up on doing actions which arent supposed to be done. Tolerance of risks and handling out various conditions on which it is really correlated with emotion then not all would really be that good on handling this one out and this is why we do be able to see that there are ones who could be able to handle themselves and there are ones ending up on miserable.

Gambling should really be for fun and not for stressing yourself and this is why it would really be that ideal that you should really be that sticking into its basic principle which is that it is really for fun
and making some income or profits is never been the main essence of gambling in the first place. On the time that you would really be molding up yourself on having those kind of intentions
then most likely you would really be ending up on getting frustrated basing up on the things that you would really be able to experience inevitably and this is something that will really make
you that realize on how it should really be treated up.

When you gamble, it's either a win or a lose. Reasons nwe get vexed or angry is because we're simply over expectant. Though, I've been in such conditions twice I know what it feels like and it sucks.
But why worry for too long on things you cannot control no more? If he had the opportunity to cash out and he didn't then that would have made everything worst.

I learnt it the hard way, I won't let greed stop me from taking profits no way.
Having too much hopes on gambling and winning big is bullshit, that big win you want might still not come your way. Gambling is best wom when you play it with fun.

When I am talking about gamblers who are gambling for the sake of interest (profits and winning), the person that you mentioned is one of them. Some might gamble just for fun, but other gamblers can't or will not gamble for fun. Even if a gambler is gambling for fun, there will be a limited time for the fun and when the losing starts, that's when the person has gone low on funds.

However, it is not good to depend on a bet because it can make someone get health issues (mentally ill) when thinking of money that one has lost or thinking about the money that you might have won from gambling, but something happened that made the bet to lose. The gambler starts thinking about it, so putting hope on gambling is not a good endeavor. I have experienced such things, but in my case, I didn't regret any action or think about my loss because it was gambling.

I have always advised against playing bets like this. nmd it is a real rule that I have adopted since a while with decent results.

Of course there is... a mathematical explanation, no more and no less.

I would suggest your friend use tools to optimize profits.

Another solution is offered by gambling exchanges... if you haven't this option in your country just bet "against" a certain event" that allow you to win (much less of planned but it's still a win).

Over dependence on something or someone without knowing how to deal with disappointment can be very bad. Disappointment is what as you mature you need to know how to handle it because it usually comes and can mess with the mental health of a person. The person in the story depended too much on the money and maybe the loss got to him more because maybe that was all he had left, or had already made serious plans for money that has not come. Gambling is not a way to make money, so gamblers should learn to handle losses when they experience it.

As we know in any case, if you instill a sense of greed, it will usually lead to things you don't want, such as downturns, especially in gambling, it is very dangerous if you bring greed to gambling because it is clear that winning or losing greed will always bring problems for you, especially in finances and also mentally will definitely be disturbed there too. For gambling itself, greed is usually for those who have experienced addiction, are never satisfied with what they get, as you said above and always want more. Basically it is very difficult friends if the person is already addicted, it is difficult to resist that greed even though well indeed avoiding is a better way, but their curiosity always encourages them to continue their gambling.

I think only a few can apply full control and responsibility in their gambling. Agree, if you have won then it is better to immediately make a withdrawal, greed comes out of your curiosity and of course for the final result will not always be in accordance with what you want, it is even very likely that you will lose the victory again. So the point is even though your winnings are a little no problem, it's better than you lose.

In this case there is really no way to feel something different, because to turn 1$ into 2500$ and lose everything right after, without enjoying the money is a real golden opportunity dropped on the garbage. That is the price he has to pay for his own greed, as every actions have consequences. I hope he is able to pass through this process and get better, but I'm aware it's a tough one.

When you get in touch with him, tell him that he will be able to earn much more than 2500$ by working and developing his career in another ways which don't involve gambling. Tell him the most precious good we have in life is health, not money, and if you have health you can persue the money you need to thrive. Recharge his hopes and expectations about the future, without forgeting past experiences which proportionated him learnship and self-awareness.

That is the result of greed and your friend is greedy because he wants more wins. If he had stopped in time, he would not have lost all his money and now he could still enjoy his winnings. But it has happened and your friend should realize his mistake and not repeat it again.

If that happens to you, you should be able to stop and leave the casino. That is the best advice you can do so that you don't lose your winnings and can enjoy it with your friends or family. Greed will only give you defeat, especially when you are gambling, so you have to really understand it.

That's why it's not important to aim to win at gambling, because to achieve that there will definitely be defeats which will damage your feelings and mentality, so gamble wisely, just enjoy the game as you should, use a healthy mindset to be able to limit yourself so you don't become addicted, because If so, it will damage your friend's mental health. So don't rely on winning gambling.

Just think of gambling winnings as a bonus, don't use it as a reference and target to achieve something, the point is to play gambling to enjoy it, don't rely on winning at gambling, because if you want to have money, you should work or trade, because gambling doesn't always make you money, instead it just drains your friends' money. You, make sure your friends can limit their budget when gambling. that's the most important thing
