When gambling you need to be a god damn lion dude, think about it, the odds are already stacked against you. The casino wants to see you fail, and so the game is designed so that you do. Don't make their job easier by being a pussy.
Hahaha exactly what I wanted to say. We are so stupid really. We just don’t care about anything. We are becoming a source of profit for them. And in this profit, we made big losses to ourselves. We always lose and make their profit increased because as you have said, gambling is all about fixed on the side of house. They always win and make us losers and earn big profits from us as well.

So being shy is already a psychological disorder? I don't think so. Probably something that had happened to make you feel embarrassed if you make a mistake could be one of the reasons but not a mental health problem. If you think that shyness is something that could be cured, it can be, in my opinion, especially if you practice yourself to talk to other people.
I agree to this, shyness can be cured for sure. Personally, I was also a very shy guy in my twenties. With time, I have evolved and completely a changed person now. Now, I can give speeches in open and I get appreciation for that. Shyness is usually a condition that arises due to lack of exposure.

It's weird that there are people who are shy when they are playing gambling. There is no reason to be shy because the money that you are using when you are placing your bets is yours, so why being shy? unless the money that you are using when you are playin gambling is from illegal activities, like you stole it from someone, well if that is the case then you should be really shy on using it.
Have you ever felt that you didn't play just because you were shy? I have felt this in casinos, and I just felt the pressure, but there's no need to be because everyone just minds their own business in gambling. Probably some people even pushed you to start gambling. I just thought about this because when I tried gambling for the first time in casinos, I don't know if it's okay to sit in tables whether the game is blackjack, poker, anything in the casino just so that I just felt shy because I'm a newbie.
Have you felt this way? I don't know if playing online casinos would have that effect also. What do you think?

Yes there's a great effect when you started playing online casinos. So if you were planning to get involved with gambling I would rather say not because it will never give any benefits or you can't earned as high as we can earned who joined signature campaign. Don't pushed yourself in gambling because once you engaged in gambling and became addicted then its hard now for you to give this up.
I felt shy to gamble in front of my parents when they are generalizing gambling as evil. They grew up as religious people and we all know that gambling isn't allowed in religion and that made me shy to gamble not because of the religion and gambling is prohibited. But I'm shy because during that time, I'm unemployed and I don't do anything but to follow my will and everything I like. My money is coming from them and that's really one of shameful part of my life.
Gambling in front of your parents ? Why would you even want to do that in the first place ?Feeling shy is totally different entirely from feeling ashamed of yourself or feeling some level of guilt that you are doing things that are against the norm of your society or the principles of your parents.
I do not know how old you are, but I am sure there is a certain age someone must have gotten to, to be able to make decisions, and unless you are not yet there, and you cannot own up for your actions, then you should really not be gambling in the first place.
If you don't gamble because you are shy then you probably have some psychological problems in your life that are not necessarily related to gambling.
Most of the casinos giving you the feeling that you are at home, everybody accepts you and care about you, which in fact all they care about is take your money.
if Shyness blocks you from gambling then go ahead, whatever blocks you from gambling is acceptable.

Don't gamble because of shy is not a psychological problem, it's actually a normal thing. Acknowledge the fact, gambling is considered a bad thing by most people so embarrassing to gamble is common to some gamblers. People in the casino will accept you because they are gamblers too, you will not be embarrassed. Unlike the people who do not gamble and they talk about you, you must be ashamed unless you can ignore it.

I am a shut in that is the reason why every time I go in casinos or wherever the people is there, I am Shy. But, I think this is the reason why I overcome my addiction to gambling.
Even though I am shy, most of the people there already knew me so I just sit wherever I was called by them but most of the time I am alone and even though there are some that knew me, they can't see me since they are busy gambling either losing or winning, I don't care really. I made a lot of mistakes inside a casino and that just made me more shy and the more I became shy, the lesser mt addiction is.

At some point it could be consider as one. There are people who are afraid to communicate with others and it's a fact. Pyschologicaly speaking being shy could be a syntom of a person in a state of depression. I'm just speaking in general, since shyness and psychological were included. Which I think is really possible.

This does not only apply in gambling when you start to do something you never do before be it either hobbies or going to an interview, you will feel some awkwardness at first only after a while when you are more comfortable then awkwardness will go away especially when meeting strangers for first time be it either a date or online friend.

I think we don't have to feel shy when we are playing gambling and we can play gambling online in our room so no other people will know what we did. and this is what I do when I want to play gambling, I open the site in my room and playing the games and when somebody coming to my room, I can close the tab of the game and pretend I don't do anything except browsing only 
I think I can hide my activity in gambling games and so far, I can play gambling without anyone know.

That means you are afraid if your activity is known by others. Which means you will feel ashamed too if your secret is revealed. It applies to me as well. Gambling in my place has already got a bad name. So caught doing it will give a social effect which is very bad.
Yes I actually had that exact same feeling before, I felt so shy gambling in casinos and I would even look out if I know someone who’s playing too so they wouldn’t see me. But that feeling of shyness eventually fade away as I grew older especially when my aunt bring me to casinos with her whenever she flies back here in our country. But on gambling casino sites, at first I was afraid to gamble but after my first attempt I wasn’t shy at all and I was thinking no one knows its me not unless I announce it on the chat box.
Maybe you really should not be gambling then, because since you are not proud of what you are doing to the extent that you do not want a fellow gambler to see you whether you know them or not, then why do it in the first place. Have you forgotten that the person you may know if present in a casino actually came there to have some fun gambling in the first place and you would rather both just accept your fate and see that you both share something in common without any form of being shy ?The social impact that would have been caused if we were caught as gamblers could sometimes be very uncomfortable. That's why so many people are trying to hide their gambling habits from the people closest to them. The embarrassment we will receive may be very oppressive.

Personally I think being shy can majorly play to your advantage. Especially in a game of texas hold'em. Being shy might give you and edge as being hard to read. Unless of course you've got some major tells..I think it can make you a bit of a wild card and if you play it right can be used to your advantage.
I really don't see why people have a problem with shyness in gambling, particularly on gambling websites where they can't even see you.
You need to be a lion when it comes to gambling, you are already up against the house edge, you need to turn the tides in your favor and be as aggressive as possible, particularly in social games. As shyness can often screw you over when it comes to betting for big pots.
That's if you're talking about online gambling but if you go to Land Based casinos where you will face different people who you don't know, you don't want to make mistakes. I see your point. It's different when gambling online and you need to be the strongest that you can and possibly learn so much more with the mistakes that you have done and hopefully you could learn more strategies.You need to be a lion when it comes to gambling, you are already up against the house edge, you need to turn the tides in your favor and be as aggressive as possible, particularly in social games.
