Gambling is just for fun and not to make money. And if anyone wants to earn or make money from gambling, they should think again because it won't be easy and they could lose a lot of money. And it depends on their goals in playing gambling because if they just want to have fun, they don't think about chasing the win.

Many people think they can recover their losses, but instead of quitting, they try to play a few rounds to see how good their luck is. But what is there is that they have experienced perhaps more losses than before.

And only having self-control can prevent you from losing a lot. But unfortunately, only a few gamblers can really control themselves while gambling so they can stop on time.

The idea of ​​gambling just for fun is the most ideal method, so that we avoid potential addiction. But even that is conditional, must be balanced with self-control and responsibility. maybe, for you, we, us, this idea is very familiar. but for most beginners, this kind of idea would not have occurred to them.

This notion too, does not necessarily mean that we cannot make a profit from gambling. there are many methods to make money gambling, even if the concept is just for fun. because, our goal in gambling is none other than risking our money and at the same time bringing in income if luck is on our side. but unfortunately, the concept of the idea of ​​having fun is mostly allegorical. because in practice, it's not uncommon for us to get carried away when doing gambling sessions. or even, it could be that emotions control us more. not infrequently, we are carried away by an atmosphere that ends in successive defeats. So how wise would it be if the idea of ​​simply having fun in gambling was balanced, with both self-control and responsibility. that way, at least we have more limits when conducting gambling sessions.
Your view of gambling as chilled-out leisure paints an alluring picture but not without risks. Things get messy when the initial excitement of risk-taking turns into a fixation. Saying that only a few gamblers can stay in control is a big understatement. Many studies reveal that most people can't recognize when they've shifted from a good time to an addiction. Their brains link the thrill of the gamble with happiness, complicating quitting. Though gambling for fun with self-restraint seems feasible, it overlooks the potential destruction of addiction. It's essential to highlight that for many, gambling isn't a simple toss-up between enjoyment and gain. It's a psychological trap causing deep financial and emotional issues.

It's a great approach to gambling.

I had times when I tried to beat the casino and sometimes it worked, but eventually I came to the understanding that gambling is only for fun, the only thing you need to control is the financial expenditure. Neither chasing after winnings, nor trying to win back past losses do not lead to a good thing, and the game for $50-100 a week is a great opportunity to unload yourself from constant stress and hard work.

To reach that level of understanding is ideal , but I know that many players when they get there it is because they have gone through very hard things in the casinos , many experiences , and very bad streaks to learn, obviously that sometimes takes a lot. money that is lost, just as there are very few people who take the advice of those who have passed through there and comply , I think that everything is to assimilate the teaching of others well , what you say is very real , sometimes a gambler sol wants to win and win , he forgets to have fun and what he wins is that he loses a lot more and then doesn't want to go into a casino Because he lost a lot.

If you have set 30 usdt to gamble and then lose and deposit some more money then it is a mistake not your responsibility because you cannot be sure that the money you have deposited can generate a certain amount of money because in gambling what will definitely come is defeat.
A family member can still gamble if he can control his finances so that what should be for the family is not lost in gambling.
A gambler must always have a sense of responsibility in making every decision so that what he does still has limits and is not too careless because gambling can spend any amount of money in just a short time.
Gambling is completely out of the question for me; I would never put myself in a position where I would set aside a certain amount of money to gamble, then lose it all and try again the next day, making more significant money, of course I would be upset with myself, because no money becomes pointless money; we make good use of it to solve our pending problems. Gambling without control means you're losing money and should exercise prudence before doing something delusional. I never underestimated my circumstance at the gambling stage and dealt with it on time inother to avoid addiction.
Well, if everyone had a mindset of that kind, I bet there wouldn't be any gambling addicts, but unfortunately, that's not the case. I wouldn't call responsible gamblers bad because if they can afford to do it and have some fun, there is nothing wrong with that. We all spend money on ourselves and on what gives us joy in our lives, so I don't see anything bad in spending a small sum on gambling if you enjoy it and if it doesn't make you gamble more.

But those who spend a lot of money on gambling and have absolutely no limit on how much they spend every week or every month are obviously doing it the wrong way. One shouldn't spend a lot of money on gambling only with the hope that they will make more than it because that barely happens.

Controlling emotions while playing is the key not to experience big losses in the game. When you experience defeat, it is a sign for you to immediately stop playing. And when you get a win, it's a sign for you to finish the game right away, don't let the wins you get run out to play again at the same time.

A lot of my friends believe that it is better to spin the Slots manually, because "Auto spin" are rigged by the casinos... but that is also a myth. A lot of things come into play when a bet is made and it has nothing to do with the "auto bet" feature. (Client Seed / Server Seed & RNG and RTP ...)

Have you pressed the "bet" button, before the reels have stopped.. thinking that it will give you a favorable outcome on your bet? Well, I have news for you... the outcome has been decided in milliseconds after you pressed the button for the bet, the GUI interface happens long after that to display the outcome of the bet to you.  Grin (Go into the developer mode of your browser to see this)

What patterns do you see and how much do you believe in it?

I don't. It is one thing if the slot or roulette wheel is rigged, but if it is not, which is what will happen if you play on a trusted site, there are no patterns. Each spin is completely random and the patterns are more like mental constructs that people make by drawing lines over the past but which are not useful for predicting the future, and if they ever match the prediction according to their pattern with the actual outcome, it is by coincidence. The results are based on pure randomness.

Not only are people trying to construct patterns based on past events, but they would very often neglect the house's edge mathematically. When they calculate the odds they often think that Roulette also having a neutral 0 when they bet on red and black could be neglected because it is statistically insignificant. But it isn't. As you said that are mental constructs and even tiny percentage numbers accumulate to very significant variables when they play repeatedly for a very long time. As a bottom line everyone should understand that gambling is a losing activity and suited for short-term amusement.

So many gamblers believe in the psychological aspect of gambling that we must have sensed it before betting that we are going to win whenever we are about to gamble, it somehow occur to us unconsciously that we perceived this feelings, it's what we have the indications for right from the beginning that we are going to have a better experience with what we are about to do after seeing all the information needed were already made available and that we are optimistic to gamble and see ourselves winning already even before the match begins.

If I give 30usd as an example , it is to give an idea of what is coming and how a balance can be managed within the casino , I think that the person who enters 30usd in a casino has to know that those 30usd are totally willing to lose them, but they are in the player to see how he manages that money , if he wants to make some bets with 1 or 2 usd , or if he bets more , that is already a matter of seeing how it is done or how he Wants to bet If the player takes those 30usd to 45 or more usd , it is already a profit , one should not think that in a short time he will take those 30usd to 300 , 3000 usd , I consider that this Requires a lot of time and Patience.


In a casino the balance cannot be managed properly because many unexpected things can happen so that to be able to make better financial decisions will be very difficult to do.
For example, if there is a very large chance of winning plus Odds that can be owned properly, even then a gambler's stance will falter and be tempted to take bets with larger amounts so that to be able to minimize financial management will fail.
You should be able to understand this kind of thing because a gambler's emotional level is always high and cannot be controlled easily when there is an opportunity in sight.

Yes , I completely agree with what you say, it may be that many do not control their way of gambling and that may leave them without money at a certain time , that is why I say if I have , let's say, 30usd willing to lose playing, I do it and I play with all the freedom possible, but without exceeding those 30usd, for me that is having responsibility, and it is as you say, when you have a wife, children, and you want to play in a casino , you should have even more responsibility, because you don't there is an excuse if someone spends the money that is earmarked for the expense of basic things or basic needs for them.

Asking someone to hold your money is a sign if you're have a bad money management and they should teach you instead of agree to hold your money.
I think the average gambler or man has bad financial management, I experienced that being a wasteful person and could never manage my finances. I once a few years ago my savings ran out due to gambling, but now my wife is assisting me to manage my finances because I entrusted her with it, so I can be more organized now to gamble even with small bets.

I think there's nothing wrong with entrusting someone or one of our families, be it our wife or mother, to manage finances so that they don't run out easily because of gambling or waste in financial management. I admit honestly that indeed I have bad financial management  Cheesy
Well that's true as most people with good financial management skills don't tend to gamble. They see it as unnecessary risk, and reward ratio is too low. But i personally know some people with good financial management skills that just love gambling so much that they want to take the risk. They are just good at keeping seperate balances for it so that they won't be blowing their budget. Not every gambler gets so addicted that they want to compromise their budget. Those are just the addicts you hear about. Lots of people with addiction that are battling against it every day can manage their addiction. And i am not at all downplaying others problem with gambling. I am just saying that it's definitely not for everyone.
Yes, even for gambling it looks like we need management so that it can be controlled, besides if you don't manage it is rather difficult to avoid losing a lot of money at gambling, I don't care about managing finances because I also often play gambling, but thanks to giving trust to those closest to me to manage it all be fine.

I am not a gambler who is too serious so it is impossible for me to become an addict, sometimes gambling just fills my free time, I don't make gambling a source of income either, give trust to the people closest to us if we can't manage finances so I don't lose a lot of money.

I guess this is a case to case basis. It's not really about gender roles. This is all about discipline.

If you are responsible and disciplined enough, then there's no need for someone else to manage and budget your money for you because you can do it yourself. If you know how to prioritize your needs and wants in a proper manner, you will have lesser troubles. Comparing to those who lack self-control and lack of financial literacy, you'll be in the advantage side because you know how to limit yourself - when to stop and continue gambling. With this, the outcome will be so much better too. You won't need to be bothered by excessive gambling habits because you have a healthy habit to begin with. In line with this, you won't get addicted and you won't spend too much money and too much time gambling that could compromise your well-being and the time you spend with your family.

Whether you are a husband or a wife, always remember to be disciplined and responsible especially when it comes to money matters.
I don't think it's a gender issue. But when you are married, you share everything with your wife or partner. There are no secrets (although there are some things that the wife/husband doesn't need to know) but it's best for financial matters we can leave it to the wife. But maybe it could be different because there will be further communication to manage our household when we get married.

It takes responsibility and discipline, but usually, the wife will be better able to manage financial matters than the husband because I have seen it in many married people. And if you feel it is each person's responsibility and discipline, that's also okay Grin

And with regards to gambling, I think a husband may have a certain budget to play gambling but it must be remembered that the gambling budget may not use money used for daily needs. You can freely gamble with the budget you have so they don't interfere with each other.

When I play for fun I immediately withdraw like 80% of the amount and I keep playing with only 20% of funds and whatever happens happens I will not be sad,
It's actually fun when you play with ease and you're having some odd, ill-fated inconveniencs to feel bad about...
Most things really works out when your mind is free and stable -then I think at that point, you'll be able to think we'll and take up the right options to wager with. It's also good to control your habits as that is really a red flag when it goes above the bands... Thirdly, when much funds is seen in personal gaming accounts, it motivates and gives the feeling that staking more time would make it cut.

That's a good strategy for gambling for fun, you don't let the entire amount of what you've started with to lose all. When someone forgets to gamble for fun, that's the common thing that happens and that is to lose entirely the money that we've started as a bankroll.

this is what I call to play for fun which usually involves playing little money compared to when you play to win it big you need a much bigger balance for that and that is the difference between the two.
The difference in playing with big money is that you'll be able to stay longer if you wishes so. But when you're too emotional and even if you just stayed in the casino for a few minutes and you've been triggered, you might still lose them all if you're careless.

I once a few years ago my savings ran out due to gambling, but now my wife is assisting me to manage my finances because I entrusted her with it, so I can be more organized now to gamble even with small bets.

I think there's nothing wrong with entrusting someone or one of our families, be it our wife or mother, to manage finances so that they don't run out easily because of gambling or waste in financial management. I admit honestly that indeed I have bad financial management  Cheesy

Man, I'll tell you, entrusting your money with your wife is not wrong and never was. What's wrong is, when you're not sharing your money with your wife. I mean you two have conjugal property, what you earned is also her property. Women who don't have day jobs and a full time mom usually has a very good financial management. So these wives are most probably going to help you control your unwanted spendings in gambling. Therefore, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Also, if you're married I don't think entrusting your money to your parents is necessary. Not sure about your culture, but in my country that's definitely a big insult to your wife, except for a wife who has bad financial management, usually these are the kind of wives who would also like to gamble.
And even more wrong if he did not entrust his money to his wife but instead used it for gambling. It was a fatal mistake and he should immediately change his habit or stop gambling. If he can entrust his money to his wife, he will find that she will try to use the money from him to support the needs of the family and she may also prefer to save the remaining money so they have money for urgent needs. Usually, women are more adept at managing family finances so that the money we give will be enough to meet our family's needs. So if you are married, it is better to entrust money to your wife and spend less time gambling because family is everything to you.

I guess this is a case to case basis. It's not really about gender roles. This is all about discipline.

If you are responsible and disciplined enough, then there's no need for someone else to manage and budget your money for you because you can do it yourself. If you know how to prioritize your needs and wants in a proper manner, you will have lesser troubles.

Whether you are a husband or a wife, always remember to be disciplined and responsible especially when it comes to money matters.
Plus we do really have that own will which we are already that matured or old enough on how to differentiate in between the good and the bad and its really impossible that we cant really be able to see on

what are the imposed risked that we could really be able to experience on the time that we do make out bad decisions.Its really impossible that we cant really asses on potential effects and outcome
if ever we would really be tolerating too much about its risks and dont really minding it and would really still proceed despite of the fact.On the time that you would really be putting yourself on
such condition then this is where self realizations do happen and this is where regret would kicked in. This is why if you dont really like to experience
such  thing then it would be better that you should really be careful on choosing up situations specially if its really that money spending thing because problems caused by this is something not that simple
to solve out.

If you play as much as you want, you are not limiting your self already. Maybe there are people who are not really in to gambling and they think betting minimal amounts for 20 to 30 rolls in a casino game is already too much for them but most people are not like that. They always can't get enough when it comes to gambling.

These people needs to limit their selves before it interferes with their life. Other than that, it will be better if your wife hold your money for you. If you don't have a wife yet, then you must still have your parents, or other people that you trust the most because once we see our balances, the temptation can always kicks in.
Yes , I completely agree with what you say, it may be that many do not control their way of gambling and that may leave them without money at a certain time , that is why I say if I have , let's say, 30usd willing to lose playing, I do it and I play with all the freedom possible, but without exceeding those 30usd, for me that is having responsibility, and it is as you say, when you have a wife, children, and you want to play in a casino , you should have even more responsibility, because you don't there is an excuse if someone spends the money that is earmarked for the expense of basic things or basic needs for them.
Having a limited bankroll in your casino account can surely help you stay in your limits when gambling especially if you are losing, but the actual thing is to be able to control yourself from the inside and don't follow the urge when it knocks on the door of your mind, because if you can't do that, as soon as you exhaust the money in your gambling account, your hands will reach out to your crypto wallet to deposit more to continue gambling.

The real success in being a responsible gambler is to control the urge and don't let it make you gamble more when you have already lost the bankroll that you had set for your gambling activities, it's difficult, of course, but it is doable, especially if you have a family that you care about.

I once a few years ago my savings ran out due to gambling, but now my wife is assisting me to manage my finances because I entrusted her with it, so I can be more organized now to gamble even with small bets.

I think there's nothing wrong with entrusting someone or one of our families, be it our wife or mother, to manage finances so that they don't run out easily because of gambling or waste in financial management. I admit honestly that indeed I have bad financial management  Cheesy

Man, I'll tell you, entrusting your money with your wife is not wrong and never was. What's wrong is, when you're not sharing your money with your wife. I mean you two have conjugal property, what you earned is also her property. Women who don't have day jobs and a full time mom usually has a very good financial management. So these wives are most probably going to help you control your unwanted spendings in gambling. Therefore, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Also, if you're married I don't think entrusting your money to your parents is necessary. Not sure about your culture, but in my country that's definitely a big insult to your wife, except for a wife who has bad financial management, usually these are the kind of wives who would also like to gamble.
And even more wrong if he did not entrust his money to his wife but instead used it for gambling. It was a fatal mistake and he should immediately change his habit or stop gambling. If he can entrust his money to his wife, he will find that she will try to use the money from him to support the needs of the family and she may also prefer to save the remaining money so they have money for urgent needs. Usually, women are more adept at managing family finances so that the money we give will be enough to meet our family's needs. So if you are married, it is better to entrust money to your wife and spend less time gambling because family is everything to you.

I guess this is a case to case basis. It's not really about gender roles. This is all about discipline.

If you are responsible and disciplined enough, then there's no need for someone else to manage and budget your money for you because you can do it yourself. If you know how to prioritize your needs and wants in a proper manner, you will have lesser troubles. Comparing to those who lack self-control and lack of financial literacy, you'll be in the advantage side because you know how to limit yourself - when to stop and continue gambling. With this, the outcome will be so much better too. You won't need to be bothered by excessive gambling habits because you have a healthy habit to begin with. In line with this, you won't get addicted and you won't spend too much money and too much time gambling that could compromise your well-being and the time you spend with your family.

Whether you are a husband or a wife, always remember to be disciplined and responsible especially when it comes to money matters.
