An irresponsible gambler usually ends up with a gambling addiction and an unsuccessful gambling journey wherein they see gambling as a source of stress rather than a source of fun. We should have the proper mindset and preference when it comes to gambling so we'll know how to deal with it properly.

This is an interesting point and one that can help a person to very quickly determine if their gambling is under control or not, if gambling has stopped being fun and instead of being a source of entertainment is a source of stress then this is a problem, as this most likely means that some kind of gambling issue is developing, if it has not fully developed already, so anyone which makes that realization must stop gambling immediately and look for help.

Yeah, if you can identify that situation and are still in control, better to stop and not to continue your engagement. You are about to enter the possible addiction stage and if you continue to proceed, lots of worse things are waiting for you.

If you already feeling that pressure and stress and most of the time it's only gambling that circulates
inside your brain, better to assess yourself while you can still break that and choose to be wise in quitting
the situation.

One common mistake of frustrated gamblers is that they gamble without limits. They continuously play despite losing hoping that they can recover from their losses which leads to disappointments and regrets. Right from the beginning, gamblers should know how to control and set limits so they would know when to stop and when to continue.

.

Most times at this stage, gamblers almost gamble out of frustration. They are gambling and having wishful thinking to recover what they have lost. If you are in this state, you are like someone seeking escape route while under the water. This situation is not really palatable for all gamblers and not everyone can have the emotional control to stop because that feeling of loser will be hanging around the gambler. But the best is to muster the courage to give up and try next time.

I’ve been gambling for a long time which make sme experience tons of losses and gains at the same time. On this topic, I listed below the typical scenario whenever I experience loss. I notice this before but I’m ignoring it because I don’t want to believe that it’s really the cause.

Scenario when I lose in gambling

Waking up early morning to play gambling without eating any breakfast
When someone badgering me behind while I’m playing
When I already on adrenaline mode after losing more than 50% of my bankroll and start chasing losses using huge bets.
Gambling late night while I feel already sleepy
Playing gambling after a recent huge win
When I already huge amount while I can’t withdraw my balance due to my pending deposit
Chasing small bets lose while I’m already up by huge profit just to close my balance to nearest whole number
Playing different games simultaneously while you are already winning to other one

I’m still tracking all my human error that keeps me giving a regular losses when I’m on this condition. Do you have something like this?

hunger can damage your focus not only when gambling but also when you do your work, so until now i have never missed my breakfast even a day. The most painful defeat i ever experienced was when i ran out of all my capital even though previously i had won big, at first i thought it was just a myth ^{(losing after winning big)}, i continued round after round because i was trapped in my mind that my luck will not run out, in fact my luck really stops and my capital slowly continues to run out until it is zero.

Still, when done responsibly and in moderation, gambling can be a fun way to kill time. But you should always be mindful of the dangers. Step back, take a breather, and if it stops being fun, just walk away. Tongue

This is the simplified version of responsible gambling which I really appreciate. Many people devastated in gambling just because they keep playing even though they are not enjoying due to there chasing loses. I can't blame since it's very hard to walk away in the casino if you still some money left in your balance while you are in loss.

This is the struggle which gamblers should passed in able to gamble responsibly or else they should just keep off from the casino.

Everyone can imagine why someone would hit the slot machines in a casino - the player might not get the image needed to complete the combination. And the big win passed him by. This way you can get into financial problems almost simply due to your stupidity and imbalance.
But slot machines are the property of the casino, and if you break them, you can let off steam, but then you will have to pay a huge amount for them. And in casinos there are always cameras, and it will be easy to find a rowdy person, so this is a very bad way to calm down or try to influence the situation. Therefore, it is better to leave the casino and give free rein to your emotions and feelings.
The casino is a very emotional place, and there you can lose everything what you’ve earned in your life, or get a "life change".

Hitting slot machines? It's completely insane (and fun too). You're not risk yourself; you're also making matters far worse. Casinos are not only passive . Every move and every second is recorded by cameras. Do you believe that you can smash their property and get away with it? lol

Responsible gaming is more than just a word; it's just important. Knowing where to draw the line is important. The excitement, the rush, and the high are all intrinsic to the game. But it should continue to be treated as a game. A pastime, not an obsession that destroys your life. Tossing away all of your accomplishments at random? Devastating. For what purpose? A "life change" that is more frequently a negative spiral than a real benefit? A waste of time.

Still, when done responsibly and in moderation, gambling can be a fun way to kill time. But you should always be mindful of the dangers. Step back, take a breather, and if it stops being fun, just walk away. Tongue

It's too easy to say "just be self-disciplined."
Nobody knows all his inner demons. We perfectly see the weaknesses of others and their examples from life are always obvious and simple for us, but in fact we ourselves have neither the ability to look at ourselves from the outside nor self-control. Imagine that you won a large sum with the first bet.
Will your inner state remain the same?
I wrote that it's better to keep friends around, or write down your limit, or have only cash. The next time I go to the casino, I will definitely follow these rules, because you need to be especially strict with yourself.

That's exactly the thing, having self-control or staying within your limits is not as easy as one might think it is because if you are gambling regularly, you will probably find it hard to maintain a limit if you haven't been practicing that from the beginning. When someone wins a big amount or maybe loses more than they can afford to, that is when they don't remember about any limit or have any self-control, they will either become greedy and want more or will become angry and try to recover their losses.

And we all know what happens in both situations. When you get greedy, you will most probably lose what you have managed to win so far which is unfortunate, of course. When you become angry or emotional, you will deposit more money and try to recover your losses and lose that as well in most cases.

That's why I recommend the methods described above. Psychologists advise you to come to the casino without credit and debit cards, but only cash, the amount of which will be equal to the limit that the player can lose. Let's say such a person sits down to play slots and then if he loses everything, then no matter what emotional state he is in, he will not be able to lose more, because he simply will not have more cash.

Also, of course, a very valuable advice is to come with friends to the casino, the main purpose of which will not be to play games, but to make sure that the player remains in self-control.

That's actually a good method to limit yourself by just bringing a limited amount of money into casino. I think it's people nature to feel risk anything they had when they've lost the first time, it would really depends on the person on how they could handle their emotions and decisional making. Plus don't ever get provoked into someone in gambling that would lend you money cause it might be considered a loan which could worsen your situation, like getting held in the casino. I also suggest if the person couldn't handle their emotion, exit the casino, find a comfort space to release your emotions cause if you do something like broke the slots, yeah its worse, cause I've literally seen one where he got detained.

Of all the activities that are often associated with compulsion issues, gambling should be one with the lowest rates of addiction, and this is most likely the case because people deep down can control themselves very well when they gamble.

Now a person may lose control once or twice, but they will learn from those experiences and never make this mistake again, after all if the percentage of people which were addicted or on their way to become addicted to gambling was really 80% then we can be sure gambling will be banned by now as it would be impossible to have a working society otherwise.

You know, when talking about addiction to hard drugs, it's like something that is demonic (although it's not) because it can derail someone mentally, emotionally, and health-wise. It can just turn someone's better lifestyle into nothing, and that's why it's greatly kicked against, because if it's allowed, society will be full of mentally ill people. Speaking of gambling addiction, it doesn't also mean that there are no compulsive gamblers who are really, really terrible, but since gambling is for fun, it cannot just be ban easily because it's believed not to be destroying their lives gamblers like hard drugs. But the thing is that every addiction has its effects and impacts.

There are always difficulties when we make a decision, but we will not know how difficult it will be when we do it. Often, what we think is difficult is not as difficult as we imagine, so we don't want to do it. It is indeed difficult to control ourselves, but if we don't try, we will never know how difficult it is. When we can win big, we must immediately stop gambling, and even though there are thoughts of continuing to win because we want a bigger win, we will not be tempted and prefer to stop gambling and enjoy our winnings. But when we prefer to continue gambling, we are likely to lose, and the loss will be bigger if we lose control.

Your set limitation is where you will find the comfort. I think if you can control such emotions, then you are good to go while you are still playing. The problem is when you already engage too much.

There's something inside that is really hard to resist, both when you are winning or losing
that lust to keep betting and to keep aiming for more time to play, your mind is being polluted
of every gambling strategy that circulates inside you.

You get the point. Implementing "self-discipline" is not easy for most people. I often experience this, not only in gambling but also in trading matters. Often I violate what I have set before gambling/trading. In gambling, when we lose and greed becomes a "demon" that makes us break the rules we made for ourselves before gambling. When we are losing, we should stop, but the real conditions is adding deposit to gamble again. But in winning moments, when we should to stop and happy with that amount, we want more till lose again. If it happens, self-discipline no longer applies anymore. Our inner demons is the winner to control us. Cheesy

When talking about the issue of discipline or self-control in gambling, it is actually easier said than done because we know not only about gambling but in everything where theory is easier than practice.
But on the other hand, we also have to realize that even though it is a difficult condition, we still have to try to say it at least to be a reminder to ourselves that healthy gambling must be accompanied by good self-control and discipline.
In the end, it is things like that that make us able to minimize what we do at the gambling table.

I agree with the both of you, but something we must also understand is that, lack of discipline in gambling has every thing to do with addiction, it is obvious that gambling addicts don't know what the word "discipline" mean in gambling,.

And as for a gambler who is not addicted to gambling and does not discipline him or herself in their gambling activities, such person is also on the highway to becoming a gambling addict.

So when you say that only 20 percent of gamblers are disciplined , I assume that what you mean also is that. It's only 20 percent of gamblers who are not addicted to gambling, I might not want to believe this though .

Of all the activities that are often associated with compulsion issues, gambling should be one with the lowest rates of addiction, and this is most likely the case because people deep down can control themselves very well when they gamble.

It's easy to say but difficult to do.
Yes, all of that is true and I also doubt that someone who is very easy to say be disciplined will not be able to control themselves, even when they get a big win someone will not easily stop gambling and leave gambling but instead will continue betting in the hope of winning bigger and without them realizing that it was the beginning of the defeat that awaited him.
Just imagine when someone says discipline is very important and it is very surprising that he gets a big win and in 1 hour he loses it all because he tried to stop but couldn't which is caused by greed which always defeats all discipline and for me there are only 20% of gamblers who are disciplined .

I agree with the both of you, but something we must also understand is that, lack of discipline in gambling has every thing to do with addiction, it is obvious that gambling addicts don't know what the word "discipline" mean in gambling,.

Fortunately/unfortunately for me I have experienced most of what OP has listed in the opening thread and this is quite interesting to see how much external factors put a punter off their game unknowingly...which makes me think gambling needs concentration without any sort of disturbances to play with your A game or maybe we playing the blame game thinking we can always be winners Roll Eyes

When gambling we can feel quite high adrenaline we can even feel curiosity and satisfaction when we win but if we lose in large amounts we might stop without realizing it but most likely we won't stop because there is still an emotional feeling of winning the game that makes us losing even though in that position all the money they have has run out but everyone always racks their brains and looks for shortcuts to make money so they can keep playing.
In casino games concentration is not really needed except for poker games or other skill games that require intelligence or dexterity but it seems like what you are saying is that there are several important points presented here.

I’m still tracking all my human error that keeps me giving a regular losses when I’m on this condition. Do you have something like this?

Btw it's safe to say one factor that is usually overlooked but plays a huge role in how one plays or wins has to go to emotions...if your mind is distracted and not fully invested chances are high that you can not make sound choices and hence the losses that follow...

Yes that is human nature and is certainly experienced by most gamblers but it is true that every loss is caused by mistakes we make ourselves unless there is luck which we don't have. Shocked

On average the biggest mistakes are related to finances where we are too greedy in risking finances so that what should have been a small loss and could return to betting instead we lose everything in one game or bet.

But what OP did is to create a track record and to review. That is on key role in any type of business. Remember if you want a successful gambling, you have to approach it as a business. It is paying attention to details. The journaling of negative traits to get aware of what attitudes and behavior make him more lose into the game. By reviewing, he become aware of what things to prevent and more to practice on moving forward.

It's too easy to say "just be self-disciplined."
Nobody knows all his inner demons. We perfectly see the weaknesses of others and their examples from life are always obvious and simple for us, but in fact we ourselves have neither the ability to look at ourselves from the outside nor self-control. Imagine that you won a large sum with the first bet.
Will your inner state remain the same?
I wrote that it's better to keep friends around, or write down your limit, or have only cash. The next time I go to the casino, I will definitely follow these rules, because you need to be especially strict with yourself.

It's easy to say but difficult to do.
Yes, all of that is true and I also doubt that someone who is very easy to say be disciplined will not be able to control themselves, even when they get a big win someone will not easily stop gambling and leave gambling but instead will continue betting in the hope of winning bigger and without them realizing that it was the beginning of the defeat that awaited him.
Just imagine when someone says discipline is very important and it is very surprising that he gets a big win and in 1 hour he loses it all because he tried to stop but couldn't which is caused by greed which always defeats all discipline and for me there are only 20% of gamblers who are disciplined .
