When it comes to advertisement then we have seen tons of this one online on which at the moment that you will be able to see these things then there's no way that you can be able to avoid yourself on becoming that curious on what it is all about. When you are a noob then you will basically be thinking that its a way on making money on which at the time or moment that you do find yourself that its possibility to make money then this is where you would really be trying it out. Its not really that bad to gamble as long you do make yourself that responsible. The main issue on here is that whenever someone is making up such engagement is that they do really lost their control and that what makes them to deposit even more and more specially on the time that they are chasing up their loses. People do usually lost up their control because of too much engagement and its something that must be avoided in the first place or really should be looking up with this aspect. If you cant be able to do so then you are that prone into that possible addiction on which it will lead up into an unfortunate condition. Its always be that best that you should be looking up on the thing that you are really that dealing into and be sensible into the things that might happen ahead and not really just that playing out without having any considerations on what lies ahead.

Those who start gamble will know the reason for playing gambling because of curiosity, nothing else. They see many advertisements in their social media, they become curious seeing how easy the streamers win the money and that is a big money. They want to have the same experience from those who wins so they keep playing gambling and not stop gambling for a while so that makes them become addicted to gambling in the long run.

They lose their responsible in gambling because they underestimate the temptation that can be big if they can not stop their gambling activities. But if you can stick to your rules, you will not gets that problem instead will have fun in your spare time. You will not thinks about winning the game because you realize that will be difficult for you. You just feel that is enough to playing gambling for some time and then quit gambling because you want to avoid the problem that can occurs.

Questioning your "why" matters. If you don't know why you're doing something, then you shouldn't be doing it. From time to time, ask yourself why you're gambling. Is it for fun or profit? Keeping yourself in check is crucial. Without a clear reason, you'll waste time and resources.

When you ask yourself why you gamble, your answer might be that it's a stress reliever, a way to exercise your intellect, or a means to make small profits. That's fine. Knowing your "why" helps you maintain control. Even if you gamble for profit, you'll need your intellect to succeed, so you'll avoid destructive habits.

As gamblers, we should regularly ask ourselves, "Why gambling?" There are many people who don't gamble and have negative views about it. By questioning our "why," we can caution ourselves and maintain a healthy approach to gambling.

I find it unlikely, to the point of impossible, that something like this could happen for the simple reason that only wins count for everyone. If they were talking about their losses, they would most likely be talking all day—every day! It's common and logical to have losses in gambling.


You don't get addicted to gambling more easily when you're alone. Your addiction is what isolates you, when it starts destroying those around you through yourself, you see it but you can't "stop" it. And unfortunately, you don't hear anyone. Like drugs, alcohol, etc.

An advice should not be 100% followed anyway. It’s just an advice. Another perspective for you to look at and assess the situation from but not necessarily to follow completely. You shouldn’t follow anyone completely anyway no matter what they are telling you. Just use those advices to make a best decision possible from multiple perspectives and sources.

This has been one of the best way of trying address issues that has to do with gambling, that you don't only take advice about what to do as it regards gambling because they may only be giving advice from their own angle of taught which may not be professional enough, even the "responsible gambler's" sometimes need advice at some point and they literally meet professionals to get the best advice that they need for their gambling activities, no single person completely have that independence to absolutely gamble but at same time not all the time is it relevant to gamble listening to other peoples idea.

The last point is something that a lot of people would neglect but it's complete facts. Gambling under the influence of drugs or alcohol can affect your cognitive reasoning thereby propelling you to make irrational decisions, this is why alcoholic drinks are always free in land based casinos. I came across a story of a gambler that lost more than 50 thousand dollars in a day because he was drunk. Apart from the other negative effects alcohol has the most important to worry about is what it does to your brain. When you are under the influence of alcohol do not engage in gambling or better still stay away from alcohol.

It's easy to plan before playing but when you are already in the situation chances that there are lots of changes that can happen, just like what you said discipline should ba applied and execute in the right timing, if you know how to treat things and there's a good limitation inside you then you can take advantage and enjoy the benefits when you manage to win decently.


Most ends up losing as they think that luck already in thier side and they will keep winning and instead of make that hard stop they'll try even harder, then lose everything back and regret the decision you take.

If the limitations are been laid and implemented by the casino gaming sites then I think there'll be some kind or orderliness and discipline amongst gamblers.Since it's quite difficult to administer self consciousness and self control towards over their gambling habits,this could help fight and get rid of unnecessary anxiety, impatience and enhance focus.

That's also going to serve them as part of someone that gives them a reminder but I agree that it will be more effective if someone does that for them personally. There's a focus on how they should do it and if these reminders won't give a direct hit to them, it won't be that much anymore. So, someone to guide and stop them will give them the thought that there's a person that worries about their welfare and how they're doing with their gambling activities.

Anyone who does not notice all the signs you have mentioned is an addicted gambler, but new gamblers should definitely follow all these information. Gambling attracts people because many people have fun with money here and many people come to earn money. Basically, those who enter gambling to earn money are the ones who are mainly affected by the highest peak of losses, if you want to gamble, you must do research on that match or game, and by using these strategies, you can definitely get rid of gambling losses.
 Saving your money and your research can free you, if you face losses, you must learn to hide yourself and retire from gambling. I would like to add one more reason, then after gambling, regardless of the profit or loss, you must retire three days a week. Retiring three days a week can definitely get you rid of gambling addiction.

There's also a change in yourself once you are aiming to win what you experienced before until your mind changes and wants to recover all of your losses, which leads to eagerness to keep gambling.
Other people might be able to experience recovering all of their losses, but most of the people end up losing everything just to recover all their losses, plus he wants to experience winning again with a huge amount.
Most of these people are trapped on the same cycle and can't escape because of the addiction.

Being victorious in a decent amount is better than losing everything but people choose to go for unrealistic amounts that they can't win. They run away from the realistic ones. Responsible gambling is obtainable but we have to win the battle of greed and revenging our lost before we can be gambling responsibly. Having the right budget and not to abandon it when it isn't giving you victory is necessary as it'll help you to stay on track in your responsible gambling path. Discipline makes a responsible gambler hence discipline is one character that gamblers that wants to make good profit need to be having but lots of gamblers aren't disciplined because they don't have discipline away from gambling hence there's no way we should be expecting them to have it in gambling.

Mate,the points you listed on responsible gambling practices are valid,most gamblers became gambling addicts all because they failed to apply the practice of gambling responsibly.However,gamblers have different perspective and ideology for gambling,but the main purpose should be for fun and not making money.I want to make more emphasis on responsible gambling practices from where you stopped;
1.Set your limits:A gambler ought to be disciplined.A gambler must have a fixed budget he normally use for gambling.When a gambler has a fixed amount for gambling then he's gambling responsibly and gambling on fund he can afford to lose.In everything we do we must set a limit because excess of something is bad.
2.Don't borrow money to gamble:A responsible gambler wouldn't borrow money to gamble rather he'll gamble with his fund.When a gambler borrows fund to satisfy the urge of gambling he/she look irresponsible.Some persons go as far of selling their properties just to gamble,that is also an irresponsible way of gambling.

That kind of experienced will trigger the adrenaline inside you, instead of keeping yourself away after winning decent amount you'll think that it's easy to repeat that and you'll aim for more, there's something inside you that's wanting to experienced that same feelings again, and eventually you'll notice that you are losing more money compared from what you just won and the sad truth, there's already addiction that triggered thats already causing problem inside you.

Indeed, we can't rely with positive advice all alone but in reality people will only get inspirations from experienced gamblers through their winning legacy. They don't rely on how these professional gamblers value their milestones of success, all the hardships, failures and struggles. What innocent people only put into mindset was positive scenario, ignoring the dark sides behind all success. Learning to control ourselves doesn't always depends on how experience matters, its our attitude on handling different situations.

Addiction cannot be prevented if you have already tasted a huge win on a game. If this happens, he will continue to play until you notice that you are constantly losing money assets, including your financial status, which can destroy your relationship with your family.
However, casinos are constantly reminding people about this, and everyone should responsible.

Any body can be a victim of this shit called addiction. It is easy to dish out advice but difficult to abide by the same principles we preach
 Being responsible starts with the mind not even an advice can change a soul who has made up his or her mind to engage consistently in gambling. This addiction stuff do start with a lure to recover losses and or greed to hit a major jackpot and slowly it grows into a habit the  matures into addiction.

 Yeah casinos do their best to warn their customers about been responsible but the greed and insatiable nature of man will always swallow up this advices. Every one needs a quick money and a major jackpot so their greed keep calling them until it becomes a problem at the end of the day

I hope this would be the mindset of all gamblers, but sadly, most of the time, especially newbies, find themselves out and lose their emotions leading to making bad decisions and betting habits. Too bad to think that we usually commit mistakes first and lose a lot of money before realizing our wrongdoings. 

I'd hear a lot of gamblers promise themselves to control their gambling habit, but yes, as usual, they still fool themselves and break their words. So I would say that it is a natural happening in gambling, and that is probably because we have emotions. 

Great, the points you raised are extremely important, and I would like to add a few more that I believe are equally important as well....

Education and Research: Before you start betting, take the time to educate yourself about the games, odds, and strategies. Research different betting platforms, read guides and forums, and understand the risks involved as education is a powerful tool for making informed decisions.

Time Management and Gambling Sessions: In addition to setting time limits and budget, consider planning the amount of time you are willing to spend in front of a screen betting. Schedule time dedicated to gambling, treating it as a leisure activity and not a daily obligation, and you will see that this will help you keep your gambling under control and ensure that other areas of your life are not negatively affected by gambling.

Diversification and Strategy: Instead of focusing on a single game or type of bet, diversify your approach and try different games, strategies, and types of bets. You'll find that this not only makes the experience more interesting, but it can also improve your chances of success in the long run.
