Yeah, the big winning opportunities given by the gambling platform to the gamblers are what often makes more people interested in gambling there, even though the chances of winning are usually lower than usual, but that doesn't matter to them, because it's like a hope for them to try to get something that can change their lives. and even though they are likely to lose, it doesn't matter because at least they have tried and if they are lucky they can win big.

One of the reasons why people are so attracted to gambling is because of the big winning opportunities provided by the casino, sometimes there are always some of them who really bet large amounts of money or the last money they have, even though it is clear that the chances of winning are quite small which means the possibility of experiencing defeat is much greater.

Actually there is nothing wrong with gambling because in any case the bad impact of gambling depends on how a gambler treats his gambling activity, in the sense that if they bet with an amount they can afford to lose then the bad impact will not befall them, but unfortunately only a small part of the gamblers think in that direction, most of them always act excessively and recklessly in making decisions.

Another thing is that it is okay to be attracted to the big winning opportunities provided by the casino as long as you really understand and are aware of the risks so that significant regret does not befall you.

Well, the possibility of a big win is what usually attracts us to bet. It's like the EuroMillions lottery, the possibility of winning tens or even hundreds of millions if there's a jackpot is what makes you buy tickets, even if the objective probability of winning is very close to 0.

There are two different types of people on the moment that they do win up something big on which there would be those people or types that they do really want to flex or boast up their winnings publicly which dont care whether their friends or the public would really be able to see their winnings. They would really be that proud of on what they do have get or won atm. It will really be giving out that kind of feeling on which they will really be having those thoughts that it will really be something that proves out that they are lucky. For those people who do able to see around then it would really be that up to them whether they will really be having such
 kind of boost up of emotions on trying out to achieve on what those other gamblers been able to achieved?

On the time that you cant be able to control your emotions then you will really be that most likely be ending up on having such problem on where you would really be assuming that you could be able to get or experience
on the same situation or scenario into that someone whom you do able to look upon. If you wont really be that careful about your emotions and mindset then likely you will really be that desperately be doing gambling like a mad man on which you will really be having those assumptions that you could be able to win up on the same thing or situation.
There's a limitation on how we should be proud to our wins. It's understandable if someone speaks out loud in the public with the friends because it's probably that's just how natural the tone of their voice.

But if it's too much and you don't want to engage with any conversation to them, it's best to just go away and avoid them.

And never be too jealous to their talks if you've got your own successful bets. Your time will come at the right time and forum where you can discuss and talk about it freely with whoever you're right.

It's like the EuroMillions lottery, the possibility of winning tens or even hundreds of millions if there's a jackpot is what makes you buy tickets, even if the objective probability of winning is very close to 0. What you have to be aware of is how unlikely it is that you will win a lot in relation to what you bet, and not compulsively spend your month's salary because you hear that someone else has won a good amount.

Yes, that's right, the simple meaning is that no one will ever be interested in getting involved in gambling if there is no money behind it as a reward, especially if the amount of winnings is very large, and as you said that's what makes people interested in gambling.
On the other hand, as you said, what gamblers should be aware of is how small the chances of winning are, many people gamble at the same time to get the big jackpot provided by the casino and of course the chances are very small to be the only one or one of the gamblers who managed to get the jackpot unless you are really lucky, but unfortunately usually gamblers always feel that they are one of the lucky ones out of 100 gamblers who play at the same time, that's the disease.

Such psychological patterns are typical not only for casino games. And for sports betting too, and even for trading too. We know that, for example, in the crypto market, the bulk of inexperienced players come only after being impressed by the big wins of their friends or acquaintances. As soon as a large mass of inexperienced and non-professional participants comes to the market, crypto whales begin to unload their positions on them. Approximately the same thing happens in casinos. Big wins are relatively rare in casinos. But when they do happen, then the casino tries to advertise it in every possible way. People have a cognitive distortion - what attracts their attention seems to them to be an event that occurs more often.

That's why we said in life, everything is gamble. Other win big, maybe getting a car or a house. And so when we here it, maybe some of us would be envy of that person specially if we know him well throughout his life.

Similar in gambling stories that he heard, we can only wish that we are that person who won the lottery or the jackpot. With that, we will go and say to our selves that we will be the next millionaire. However, each of us are very different, our luck is not the same as the person who have won that lottery.
The worst mistake you would make as a gambler is to have inspiration from a blockbuster win you heard about and start gambling more with the intention of winning like the other person. You are heading straight to addiction and the possibility of the negative consequences are high. Also people share their success stories and never their failures, so before you believe that the person is so lucky, try she hear the ugly side off his journey to accertain if you can also beat possibly going through that dark part or even worse case scenario.

All that glitters are not good and most especially in gambling, there is more possibility of recording loses than gaining, so we must be careful of the kind of motivation we welcome in our gambling life.

Yes, that is the use or function of self-control, which in addition to preventing you from the possibility of greed, can also prevent you from significant regret and also give you the opportunity to enjoy money from winning when at that time you managed to achieve a number of wins.
On the other hand, we must remember that different times will also have different results, or what is meant is even though for example now you have managed to win, it does not mean that victory will come again when you choose to continue the game because of the urge of greed.

Another thing related to choosing the right casino, of course, it should be done if you have the ability to distinguish between which casinos are safe and which casinos have the potential to commit fraud, meaning that we are advised not only to focus on various preventive measures but also to pay attention to various other things that can also cause problems.
Self control surely help you from anything bad that already happened to many gamblers. You won't that bad experience because you know how to avoid it so gambling will not be bad for you. There will be no urge to keep playing gambling especially for chase the win because you know that will not be easy for you or anyone. So you just playing gambling and enjoy your moment in gambling.

You can choose the right casino for you and avoids the casino that looks suspicious because you can learn from other people experience. It is better we prevent than have the problem because that will be difficult to solve. And when someone win from gambling, you will not trigger to try playing gambling using more money because you will reminds that playing gambling needs luck to win.

Sadly there is nothing for anyone to do to ensure that they will by gambling because most games in gambling are not skill based not even knowledge based. All you need is a lot of luck and it’s  not something you can acquire by force.

Maybe if we were talking about a specific profession or investment project then we can apply the mindset of “if he can do it, then so can i” but in gambling? Forget about it. It doesn’t work like that.

We know that winning is what everyone who gambles wants, whether they gamble for fun or just to fill their free time. Everyone who gambles definitely wants to be able to win a large amount, besides that, many people gamble with the intention and purpose of wanting to double their money with a small capital and wanting to be able to win big, but we must be aware that winning in gambling is not easy to get. The statement about having to risk a lot of money to get a big win is not certain, the size of the funds wagered will not guarantee that we can get a big win because winning in gambling is based on our own luck. I'm sure out there there are people who can get big wins with the funds allocated that are low and vice versa.

Indeed, there's no serious arguments against putting big risk is an assurance but that's what I've observed from random strangers I've known from different places. They're really exerting a lot of efforts just get that big catch of winning, eventually they'll taking successful bets and sometimes a failure. The more chances of winning depends on how a gambler managed his funds during the game regardless of how high is their potential of winning.
That is his statement and it is quite sad because the amount of effort they put in tends not to get them what they want, what happens is the opposite of what they want is a reality that often occurs. Sadly, there are still many people who gamble with the wrong assumption that they think they can get a big win easily and will make a good career, even though that is just the first door to their suffering.
With no clear certainty of being able to win, this should be one of the things that must be realized, even though we see our friends get a big win and hear, see, and maybe even feel the victory they get because they are treated to a drink by a friend who wins, but don't let us get carried away if we can also get what our friends get, because luck no one knows when it will happen, while winning in gambling tends to depend on our luck.

There's different between someone gambling for fun and someone who gambles for profit because the one who gambles for fun is not worried over lost bets but for someone who gambles for profit, they becomes sad and unhappy when they lose.

For a gambler to not be worried when he loses, he might continue to gamble and keep losing all his money. Despite what you're gambling for, you still need to be mindful of how you lose money or you'll go broke. Gambling for fun should have its limits and you'll have to quit when you're exceeding your limit.
A responsible gambler would know that setting aside a decent amount that will be used for gamble is a good method of gambling. No matter the kind of joy we get while gambling we still need to be conscious the kind of amount we use for gambling. However, even though the gambler is the kind of person that always win, he still need to set aside a resealable amount that he will use for gambling so that anytime he loses, he will not lose all the money that it in his bank account. One other important thing a gambler need to know is that staying longer in the casino house will make him lose more money.

That's one good way to address your gambling habit, because if you will stick to the allocated budget and stop once it is busted, you won't have financial problems. Would be hard to beat temptations but if you will consistently use only your spare funds, you won't be in a tight position.
The dilemma of most gamblers is how to stop when you are already on the losing side. Most will continue even if they are beyond their budget as the mere thought of recovering those lost funds is always here. However, you need to be strict with yourself. Otherwise, you will be in deep trouble afterwards.

You can't say you're having fun when you're losing money that could've been used for other valuable things that'll increase your lifestyle. The difference between those gambling for fun and those gambling for profits is that the profit seekers are always after the victory which they still don't get and then they become frustrated that they might begin to gamble in an irresponsible way that turn out to be harmful to them because they get addiction and other problems from that one decision that they took. We should be mindful of how we gamble inspite of why we decided to gamble.

The amount staked on a bet in gambling does not guarantee that a gambler will win the bet. Someone might stake high in a bet with low odds and still lose the game, another might stake low and win the game. The odds of winning are based on how lucky we are in the bet. If we are lucky enough to win when we stake a huge amount, of course, our winning will be huge and the same goes for when we stake low, the winning will cannot be compared to when you staked high.

Of a truth, no one wants to lose even when we say we are gambling for fun. The exciting part of gambling for fun and gambling for profit is when we are winning. Those gambling for fun tend to be more careful when they are gambling.

For sure staking with huge amount of money does not guarantee winning but it is wise to reduce the risk of losing with a lot of accumulations and staking with low amounts. I have staked different slip of bets with the belief that one of them will be a won ticket but i ended up losing all whereas i have used the amount that i used in staking those different bets to stake on a single event and i won it even though the winning wasn't huge. We should take gambling more like a business where even if you are able to win X2 of your wager amount you should be comfortable with it instead of staking to win huge and losing all the time. Winning huge with a little wager amount is more dependent on luck than someone who staked huge to also win huge, the options you will select for events will be less riskier.

There's different between someone gambling for fun and someone who gambles for profit because the one who gambles for fun is not worried over lost bets but for someone who gambles for profit, they becomes sad and unhappy when they lose.

In my opinion, small winnings can interest only a few people. Most people receive wages for hired labor, sometimes they also receive bonuses for production results. Small winnings - this can impress few people.

Another thing is when people read in the media that someone won in a game of chance and instantly improved his quality of life - bought an expensive car, a large apartment or went with his family to a fashionable resort. Such information boggles the imagination. Many fairy tales that children read in childhood tell about quick enrichment, because such stories evoke very strong emotions.

So, yes, when people hear about big wins, their willingness to take risks increases (in order to hit the jackpot in the long run).
It's envy.
We envy those who claim big prizes and so an emotion will be switched on that we also want the same thing to happen to us. This is why the online gambling business has been a successful one, especially for those who have many gamblers sharing their experiences and winnings on social media.
Little did we know, a lot of them are planted by most gambling sites so that it can urge more people to play but when you are in it, it's hard to win such a thing, it's very rare to hit a multiplier that you can tell yourself you can go out and enjoy it. Most of the time, it's just small wins that won't even matter if we withdraw so we gamble more and try again and it becomes a never-ending cycle.
We are just humans and we are really that emotional beings on which there's always that chance or possibility that envy could really be felt out on the moment that we are seeing someone whose really that winning big. There are people who do really that become impulsive on the time or moment that they will really be seeing someone whose really that racking up with some profits on dealing up with gambling. Of course you will really be trying out to make yourself as a winner too on which you would be also trying out to mimic on the things that they've been doing on which this is really that very wrong.
People would be only realizing on the things that they've done on the moment that they will really be experiencing some non good situations or simply on losing moment or time.
Dont make yourself get desperate then you would really be just that fine.

I don't feel like being pressed, but I do hope I'll be winning same with others winning thar huge amount of moeny from gambling. Urging ourselves is not a good mindset, but what hinders us from playing same with other people is due to money to invest with.

Rumors of impressive wins spread at the speed of light and this undoubtedly excites the minds of gamblers, and also spurs them to challenge the casino with an internal emotional response "I can do it too". But the problem is that in this gambling system it is impossible for everyone to win. In gambling, it is very important to maintain a sober mind and suppress emotions, including when you learn about such large wins. You should not recklessly and headlong try to repeat the success of these lucky ones, but continue to adhere to your gaming strategy and style of play.

Also, don't forget that you most often don't hear rumors about large (and not only) losses, because gamblers try to keep silent about this, because it is a manifestation of losing. Although such stories undoubtedly exist more.
It's true that rumors of impressive wins spread at the speed of light, but rumors of colossal defeats stay hidden under the bed. A few days ago, a friend of mine won approximately €250 through sports betting, on football matches, if I remember correctly. I was quite intrigued, to say the least, as the amounts I'm winning are usually below €100, depending on the match and how much I'm betting, but no one, including my friend, discloses how much they've lost. After discussing it for a while, he revealed that he has lost over €200 the past two weeks, so this win was a blessing, as he managed to recoup his losses and achieve a minor return, provided that he didn't bet the other €50 already.
