The statement you made tends to refer more to gamblers who have managed to make changes that can eventually enter the suggested gambling approach, but on the other hand we cannot allow ourselves to not care too much about some gamblers out there who are still stuck in the wrong understanding and point of view on gambling, for them it is not easy to do something that you think is worth doing to become a healthy gambler by prioritizing fun over earning, But however there are still quite a lot of gamblers who experience adverse effects that make them lose balance in finances, there are those who have experienced or are trapped and there are also those who are just about to enter gambling based on the wrong point of view, and this is what we should pay attention to in the sense that beginners are the top priority to be able to have the right understanding so that the population of addicted gamblers can decrease slightly.

On the other hand of course it is true, that however precautions that come out of a rational point of view and mindset are the best to do and are indeed recommended in order to achieve a level of safety in the journey during the period of involvement.

I agree with that,  those who are addicted to gambling tend to become more stubborn individuals of course they will not easily accept advice from other people even if it is from their family or relatives They also tend to do things that can harm other people, because people who are addicted to gambling will of course be more willing to do things that are indeed negative things,  and can also harm themselves. It's true that what you say to do good things will not be easy for them to follow, such as leaving gambling that can harm them, but their thinking about how they respond to gambling wrongly has made them have high hopes for gambling so they themselves will not easily realize that what they are doing is wrong and detrimental to them.

That's right, win or lose, of course we have to be able to control ourselves, don't let us lose control so that it harms us,  of course to avoid losses we have to have good self-control. and the ones who have to do that are ourselves, not other people, because the gambling we do is our own action, not based on someone else's.

We definitely can not and should not misplace the importance of discipline in our gambling activities, and it doesn't end with gambling alone, alot of things we do in our day to day live requires some level of discipline, which if not well applied, we might find ourselves doing things above the required limit or below the required limit (depends on what we are doing exactly).

But also on the other doing, we also have to know the limit to discipline, for it is commonly said that too much of everything is bad, that includes discipline as well, being overly discipline can sometimes cost us some opportunities which would have lead to us winning some good amount of money.
So in all, we should never to hard on ourselves, we should learn to know the right balance in applying discipline in our gambling activities, after all, all work and no play makes jack a dull boy - if you understand what i mean 

Which will be very hard for you if you are not well discipline, one thing is that you might decide to start but continuing the process is another. Gambling is fun but at the same thing can be a destructive pleasure to you because it can make you do things that even you yourself will be surprised how it came to happen. So inorder to avoid this discipline is first the primary option to take because without self discipline disaster will replace your supposed fun when gambling.

I've encountered individuals who consider gambling as a challenge to themselves rather than a means of profit. Discipline and knowing when to stop are tested. Long-term, this strategy is healthier and more satisfying. Gambling is fun and offers delight, not simply money.

You suggested temptations, which should be discussed. Real and powerful. Always thought understanding temptations was the first step to controlling them. You suggested setting limitations and goals for fun to create a safe environment. The goal is to enjoy the ride properly and attentively.

Of course it is true that the size of the loss suffered by gamblers also depends on how they treat their gambling, especially in their approach to gambling, if they prioritize risk management over winning opportunities then I think they will not suffer too much but if on the contrary then obviously defeat becomes their best friend or that means the final result will occur more often which will indirectly continue to drain their finances, if we do not want to have such a fate then obviously like you said that we must be a wise and responsible gambler.

It's a good idea to be careful and alert when you're gambling because of course there are a lot of temptations and obviously these temptations are usually not always able to be missed by gamblers, in the sense that in the end they get carried away because they see something that looks like tempting. Another thing, one of the reasons why it is really not recommended to chase defeat because obviously there is absolutely no certainty and guarantee of anything and this step will only make the possibility of defeat even greater as you said. Therefore I think there is absolutely no other reason that seems reasonable in terms of chasing victory, and nothing else is more advisable than having a goal just for fun along with applying a lot of limits for prevention, this is the best for safety.

That's why we must continuously practice self-control so that we don't gamble excessively, especially when we see a game that attracts our attention and makes us want to play it. We cannot use more money just because we want to continue gambling even though we have finished gambling. Whatever results we receive from gambling should make us able to accept it.

Gambling is not bad as long as people can use it as entertainment so that they will not lose a lot of money, especially since it is their savings for the future. Maybe some people have lost all their money because they gambled too often so they didn't have any preparation for their future. That shouldn't happen, meaning we have to try to avoid it because we only gamble in our free time and don't make gambling the only way to get pleasure. When we gamble and can win, we must be able to stop gambling before we lose all the money because we want to continue gambling so we can get more wins.

Winning and losing are the results that all gamblers will get and it depends on each gambler's attitude because if they are wise in using their gambling, they will not want to try to recover their losses or chase their winnings but will continue to stop gambling. They don't want to experience more losses; even if they win, they also won't want to chase even bigger wins. We have to be careful when gambling and whatever results we get, it can make us continue gambling because the temptation of gambling is very strong to attract us back to gambling. Only good self-control can prevent us from stopping our gambling activities because we are trying to prevent bigger losses.

Recovering the losses we have experienced will only increase the number of losses even greater and it is not worth doing because it means we can lose even more money. If our goal in gambling is just to have fun in our free time, we can stop gambling even if we lose because losing when gambling is normal. Even when we win, we will not try to chase a bigger win because we know that it could cause us to experience a loss that could take all our money, including the winnings. We cannot continue to chase victory because it will be difficult and there is no guarantee that we will be able to win again after winning. We can only stop ourselves from gambling and rest to reduce tension because there will be increased emotions after getting results from gambling and that is what we must avoid.

It seems like no family member wants that to happen to his family in order to further destroy his family condition, especially if he sponsors it using his money, isn't that very stupid? because he wasted his finances on gambling which did not produce any profit. Unless the person is rich so there is no problem continuing to encourage his brother to continue gambling and making his addiction worse and it will be difficult to cure, TBH a brother who really has intentions like that is a brother who has a very bad character. .

Someone who is addicted tends not to pay attention to their family, especially if they are married because all they think about is gambling and betting, their nature also tends to be temperamental so that the wife and children are very disadvantaged if their husband is a gambler and if that happens in my family and I am in the position wife would be better off leaving him and starting a new life with my child, let him (who is addicted) be destroyed in the darkness that surrounds him and he also has to bear his own mistakes.

Those who are addicted to gambling are one of the most difficult people to advise. People who are addicted to gambling are often difficult to advise because this can make them less responsive to advice and help from other people. This addiction can actually make them compulsive and can influence their behavior and decisions negatively. So those who have an addiction to gambling, it could be said that they are in a really difficult situation, because they are invited and advised by people, they don't want to, while they themselves don't have the desire to become a better person.


That's right bro.. before the situation gets more difficult and complicated, then keep trying to be able to control our gambling well. And always avoid bad behavior in gambling... because if you don't, the end result will be a loss and deep regret.


And before this happens in our gambling activities, we must try as much as possible to remain calm and in control, whether we win or lose. By remaining calm and controlled, this can help us make better decisions in gambling.

What happens is that when we are in a casino, we want to keep things on the right track, we always want to participate and be part of good things, we all pursue winning, and nothing else does anything but that, but to win What is needed is to be able to have the determination to do things not only well, but also to have a prior plan, not something so radical but something with which we say that things can be done to be able to be okay with everything, for example every time We play with the money we have to lose, we have that money to play and possibly to increase it, but not to play in a single direction, that is, if we go one way, we will go there until we see where it takes us, no, we will always take various strategies, or change the way of thinking when it is convenient because it is the easiest way to work things in casinos.

We are people who all the time are thinking about how to win, and although many say that they do not believe in strategies, I am one of those who say that strategies are good to apply to see what comes out of them, strategies are just opinions that we have in order to be able to win. establish different ways of playing, because we cannot make a game in the casino that is very flat, because it is something that will not work, it is something that does not make sense either, so in this order of days things must go in the direction Correct, for this we must do many things, first we must consider that our money is only the most important, that without money we cannot do anything, because when we are in a casino, when we are doing anything else, what risk do we take? money, and that's all it should give us, and I hope that every time we play we can win, but it's not like that, most of the time it's difficult to do it without us fighting so we can achieve it, it's something logical.

Yes that's right and exactly, after all gambling is about winning and losing at the end of the session, whoever it is whether you are a beginner or even a professional you will still be able to end up finding one of these two answers between winning or losing, simply put if you are lucky then you will win but on the other hand if it turns out that you lose then obviously that means you are unlucky, However and anyone can never completely avoid the possibility of risk because gambling is something that runs randomly and without any certainty, so this is the reason why we must remain careful and vigilant and also along with applying self-control to minimize emotions due to defeat and also limit everything such as the amount of budget in each session we do.

This is because this is the only action a gambler can take for safety. On the other hand chasing winnings to restore something that has been lost is really not recommended, maybe we have not heard often that we must be a gambler who is responsible for whatever results will occur at the end of the session because it is not easy or even very difficult to chase something that has been lost in gambling and we have seen a lot of evidence that people who take this action end up losing more, The reason for this is because as you said, gambling is not a place to earn but only an activity for leisure and this is also the reason why we must remain firm in applying limits and self-control, we must control gambling and not gambling that controls us, because this is very dangerous.

Absolutely,I think the reason why people normally get addicted is lack of self control.as a gambler you can decide not to bet more than one ticket today but when you get to the office you notice that there are a lot of games  that very day,then you decide to bet more than one ticket,more especially those people that play virtual.they can decide to try with just 2hundred once they lost they keep trying and trying to the extent of betting with there phones,some person even bet with there vehicle no self control.

Sometimes this set of people end up stealing someone's property so as to get a staken power as a result of been addicted to gambling.

However there as also a lot of people that bet online using there bank account to fund there betting wallet, there is this friend of my that was addicted to a point that he doesn't have savings in his account all in the name of gambling. I'm not saying that gambling is a bad thing,gambling
has  helped a lot of people, of which I'm a living witness of the person that was reformed with gamble but he was not addicted to it,he used his initiative,as a gambler you're suppose to do the same not rapping it all over your head.
 

The results we get from playing gambling can be winning or losing, depending on our luck so we must be able to accept it sincerely. We should not try to chase winnings, let alone recover winnings, because gambling is not for such purposes, but gambling is a place to have fun. That is why we should not gamble too often so that we can still control ourselves well and not place too much hope in gambling or want to seek pleasure only from gambling. We have to realize that we don't need to use gambling to get that pleasure because we can get pleasure from other interesting things that we can do.

Sometimes gambling is a good source of income and sometimes it just ruins the life of a person here my conclusion is that gambling itself is not harmful, the gamblers who are gambling make it harmful. When a person who gambles every Sunday and cashes out a handsome amount of money while on the other hand, a person who can do gambling every day goes into debt. Both are the person one wins and the second loses all the things, the main difference between them is that the first person manages his mindset while the second does not and gets addicted. Remember once a person gets addicted he/she will never take care of anything the only thing to focus on is to win the gambling again and again and we all know that a person can not win all his shots sometimes he will win and sometimes he will lose.

It's possible that it could happen, especially if they are addicted to gambling, then it's possible that it could happen. Why is that? because in my opinion, people who are addicted to gambling tend to become more stubborn individuals, in other words, they cannot accept what other people say about the things they do, especially if they are under their age, maybe the addict will say "don't be so clueless." ". I don't know if this will happen or not, but what is clear is that I think people who are addicted to gambling tend to be stubborn individuals and will not easily accept what other people say.

That's right, because they have been gambling for a long time, they should be able to remind or direct new gamblers who are gambling not to gamble excessively, because by gambling excessively, bad things can happen. Because prevention is better than cure. isn't that right, friend?

I agree with that, because the winnings they get can make them more confident in gambling, because those who win at the beginning may have thoughts about gambling that winning is easy to get so they can get a lot of profits.

but of course this is It's not true  because it's just a trap for them to continue gambling even though the end result is only losing and losing.

oh, you're right there's that, sometimes a situation starts slowly and all of a sudden you see yourself trapped with no way out
addiction is a serious matter and it's always good to cultivate healthy habits and have a support network around with people you can count with to share...

you know what I mean?

Yes, I agree.

Specially with the point that it is a gradual thing. It's very easy to slowly move yourself into that kind of position.

You don't realize it until you are so inside that it is hard to get out.

It's still possible to change at that point, but it is easier to do so earlier on in the process.

I had watched Tunisia's match against South Africa, which ended in a goalless draw. This is the result that prevented Tunisia from being nominated for the second round because South Africa had guaranteed the nomination since the second match in the group stage. All observers emphasized the defensive steadfastness of South Africa in the face of many attacking opportunities that were available to the Tunisian team.

South Africa also did not appear to be at its best, as despite the success of the defense team, it was not able to score despite the exhaustion of the Tunisian team.

In this type of situation, the person has lost it entirely and they need some help. Any family members who still want to give them money to sponsor their gambling behaviour don't like them, and they are just wanting them to get their lives ruined more and more.
 
And when you say they don't care about their family aside from them just gambling and making some win and lose every single day, if this kind of person has their own personal family like a wife and kids, I think they will be able to feel some human in them. Most of the time, they don't just start a day and get to that point that same day; it's a gradual process, and it's when the people who are close to them don't give them that attention that they end up completely lost.

This behavior is almost uncontrollable because those who suffer from it have a psychological tendency to become addicted. This explains that most gambling addicts are also addicted to other habits such as smoking and drinking alcohol, in parallel with the spread of drug consumption in general.
For example, it can easily be seen that gambling addicts have money management problems: money management problems, such as accumulated debts or a succession of market recessions that cause losses, can increase the risk of developing gambling addiction.

If you think you or someone you know may be at risk of gambling addiction, it's important to seek help. There are many resources available to help treat gambling addiction, including individual, group, and family therapies.
