You are viewing gambling comfortably as negative while it’s should be the proper way of playing gambling since you just wanted to be entertained when you gamble while being comfortable will help you to calm your mind and play properly.

The danger comes when the newbie is already agitated when gambling since he might bet recklessly just to chase losses which in this case user is not comfortably playing but rather intense playing in their house.

Playing in relax mode makes you think properly for a better decision making on your bets.

Beginner mistakes that often occur in gambling.
1. Join in gambling, without studying and asking those who are professional and experienced.
2. Greed, many beginners come to gambling without calculating their ambition to win a game that they actually don't understand what they are playing.
3. Beginners are often tempted and influenced by casinos that offer lots of bonuses and many beginners do not consider the reputation of the casino they visit and in the end of the story fraud occurs.

The three reasons for the mistakes above are common among beginners who gamble, perhaps there are many other reasons why beginners always experience problems when gambling.

My advice for beginners, before gambling, find out about the relevant gambling sites and ask people who are experienced in gambling, which gambling sites are good and which are not, then don't be greedy and learn about the risks that occur in gambling.

However, nowadays everything is online. we are given easy access to everything. but as a result, it will become increasingly difficult to control. that's what is the problem.
In terms of experience and knowledge, beginners in gambling are lacking. Most people start gambling because they are curious about friends' invitations or advertisements. starting gambling without knowledge is the worst. at least knowledge regarding the risks of gambling.

Gamblers who are not emotionally ready should not access gambling. It will only result in irresponsible gambling. it will be detrimental to gamblers and other people.

Personally, some of my mistakes are not setting my desired betting amount, sending fund to wrong wallt address, betting and losing an amount equivalent to my whole month salary, and engaging with some unknown gambling platforms because of their unrealistic offers turning to a scam. Mistakes for sure comes in many forms but in the first place it won't be called a mistake if you did not regret such thing to happen. It is a norma thing to experience making one inside and outside gambling industry. Necessary I guess to one's growth and what matters is that you learn from it and to avoid its occurence afterwards. It'll just be a shared laughter knowing that other people have made the same mistake as you did.
You can name as much as you want but it will all boil down to the idea of stoppage.

One major mistake they make is being too comfortable gambling because they are gambling from the comfort of their homes and it is easily accessible. You know when you have your gadget with you all the time, all you need to do is go online, stake a little amount and gamble as much as you want because no one is watching and no one is going to judge you, gambling in secret becomes very easy. Gambling this way is very dangerous and it is the fastest ticket to addiction. The fact that online gambling platforms are easily accessible is a big trap already, newbies should not get too comfortable gambling online, rather they should gamble with care so they do not battle with issues later

They think this because beginners always win and then feel like it's going to last forever if they build a good strategy but the truth is that they win because they are newbies and don't know the game well, they play with pure luck. I think that you can't beat a mathematically built game with a strategy and that's where beginner gamblers make the biggest mistake. I believe that in order to beat the house, you have to follow pure luck.

Another big mistake that new gamblers make is that they don't do research to find a good and trustworthy casino, they just google casino and visit a random website, then they get scammed and come here to open threads in the scam accusation section. Most of the time new gamblers don't read the terms of service page too and then they are scared.

Gamblers also want to earn a living and a fortune by playing slots and other casino games. That can't happen, casinos were created to make money, not to give it away on every member. It's gambling, the luckiest wins and unlucky people lose, it's not a non-commercial organization.

Nowadays people now are seeing gambling as could be a source of income there's a lot of streamers right now promoting their different sponsored casino and we know how the social media is so powerful with that credited amount of the streamers they can now easily make a fake wins and losses but most of their promotion of course is wins as being paid, so people who doesn't have a really understanding with the online casino see a fake opportunity that they can earn like streamers does. Sooner or later because of their losses they want to make a revenge game or make more greedy game play.

They don't have power to rid the temptations that comes to them as they also lack of self control which is needs when they playing gambling. They underestimate about having self control in gambling and not thinks about the other things that they must have to prevents the big lose. They don't learn from the other gamblers or reading many stories about gamblers who lose their money in gambling. They drag into their excitements without thinks about to take care of themselves while they playing gambling. They even don't see how much they already lost in gambling because the excitement that they gets from gambling makes them forget to check their balance. If they wants to avoid that things, they must learn about self control and the other things and always use limitations while they playing gambling so they will not have to lose much money.

Lack of emotional control : Gambling isn't a charity organization so you don't engage in it with a mindset of only recording wins, there are times you would lose and lose badly and that's where your emotional abilities are put to the test. Avoid chasing loses out of frustration from losing streaks, normalize quitting the session when you detect your emotions building up so you don't get into bigger troubles.

Not having gambling budget : Always set funds aside for gambling and never go beyond that. I'll advise you that your gambling budget shouldn't be more than 5% of your income weekly or monthly, as soon as its exhausted, do well to pause gambling until the next inflow.

Excessive Spending after winning I fell victim to the excitement that comes with winning and spending without thinking multiple times before becoming wiser. These were for the fact that I never knew about accurate funds management and had to learn it the hard way. When you've won here, plan before spending to avoid unnecessary wastage.

Gambling at the wrong time : Plan your day properly  and assign a time for gambling, don't gamble before attending to the major activities of the day and don't gamble at the start of the day.

High expectations: train yourself to expect nothing from gambling, If you win congratulations, and if you lose, the journey continues. Have other sources of income and never make gambling your occupation

All the  above suggestions would safeguard you from what is called gambling addiction which is a state of gambling without limits or discipline. Excessive gambling has dire consequences on both the Gambler and his loved ones and is such you wouldn't want to experience.

Beginner's mistakes yeah, I don't think we can generalize this to every novice gambler. however, in general, most novice gamblers, especially online, think that gambling is easy to win. usually, most people are interested in gambling when they win. whether it's watching what the streamers play, seeing when a friend or family member wins the bet they made. or, anything that inspires a beginner's interest in gambling. From my point of view, this is actually a common thing for beginners. why, yeah, because they don't understand it or lack knowledge about gambling itself. I say this based on personal experience, because initially the attraction of winning which seemed easy made me get involved in gambling. Even though I started gambling in traditional gambling, gambling is actually easy. yeah, I said it again. betting is easy, easy to win and easy to lose. whatever the type of game, they are all the same based on my point of view. Apart from that, the luck factor is also involved when we carry out a betting session.

Well, the main point for beginners is not the biggest mistake. but how to realize what we actually do from gambling. what is ideal for us about gambling, for example to have fun or to earn extra income. If so, know all the risks, whether it's just for fun and doing it for fun. or, those interested in earning an income from gambling.  beginners must know everything first, and the importance of knowledge, insight, regarding gambling itself. Thus, at least, once a beginner starts gambling, he will not easily lose direction and get carried away in excessive euphoria.

Perhaps the biggest mistake that beginners make in gambling is that they lack risk management - they tend to gamble according to their wishes and don't care whether their money is sufficient or not. This lack of risk management makes them gamble without knowing limits, chase losses too aggressively, and become emotional, which affects their financial condition. Beginners can avoid this by learning to manage their money and as much as possible to regulate their emotions, so that it does not affect their psychology to gamble continuously and make gambling activities something that is detrimental to them.

Of course, gambling is a get rich scheme. Anybody who wants to patiently get huge amount of money should focus on his skills or improving his business so that he can earn more. Because gambling is 50/50, most person come here directly to make quick money so that they can settle their urgent needs like providing money for feeding in the family, paying tuition fees, hospital or electricity bills. Debt can also be one good reason why a gambler would want to double the money he has so that he can meet up to pay back the debt on the day he promised.

Gambling can never be a sure source of income because it involves predictions which may be true or may be false. There is not certain amount of money to be expected every month as a income this is why any one who has a family should look for benefitting job and not rely on gambling to take care of his family.

It's true, we can't just say that it's the beginners who always have the wrong mindset that will endanger themselves in gambling because in fact there are still some gamblers who can be said to have been involved in gambling for quite a long time and have also experienced this very often. - significant bad things such as experiencing a loss of large amounts of money but they still maintain that wrong mindset. Of course, whatever the fact is, as you said, gambling can never be used as a profitable place, uncertainty and lack of guarantees when running a session is always the main reason and it has been proven that winning only happens occasionally and by "coincidence" when you being lucky.

With these facts, it is clear that gambling cannot be used as a place to earn money or as a medium for gaining instant wealth. They are nothing more than losers who want to be rich but don't want to work and just depend on luck in the wrong place, which in the end is very natural for them to experience many bad impacts.

That's right, gambling is freedom or it means that anyone is free to get involved in gambling if for example they have money to gamble, but often most people are trapped and misunderstand what gambling really is, all because they only look at the chances of winning but not considering the other aspect that gambling has a level of risk that can be much higher when treated in the wrong way, the point is that it makes no sense if you dedicate yourself to making money in a place that only depends on luck.

This is very common even to long time gamblers who until now have not achieved the right mindset of a gambler, that gambling is never a get rich quick, and gambling can never replace the position of having a stable job. Although you can win big from gambling, but that is only rare to happen as losses will always outnumber our gains or profits.

There is no wrong with gambling actually. What makes it wrong is that when we start seeing gambling as a reliable source of living when in reality it will never be. Gambling is purely based on luck and chances, and it’s not all the time that we get extra lucky and win our bets.

This is a common thought not just for old time gamblers but also for the beginners that have started their ways to gamble. They think that it's the easiest place to make money and that's why many becomes addicted to it and they start some common habits that many aren't noticing that they're doing. And one of it is becoming optimistic for every bet that they do, they think that it's going to be a good start when they'll be optimistic with their bets and even if they're already on the losing streak, they're not going to stop because they're optimistic.
So, so much optimism is also bad when it is loud and clear that you're on a bad day and losing streak that keeps on coming.
When you won't stop at that day, you'll incur more losses and that's a mistake that many does, so there's no exemption on it and the acceptance that you're having a bad day with full of losing streaks is a pill that's hard to swallow.
You think that there's still ways that you'll able to recover which is true but you have no idea if those ways are going to give you full recovery for which most gamblers have accepted it that when you lose, then forget about those and start somewhere else. Many will agree that it is one of the biggest mistakes that many are doing, thinking that gambling is like a cash cow to them where they'd just land and get money with just few bets but in the end, the opposite happens and they're losing more money instead.

How then should a beginner choose the right casino. Even on this forum, 1xbet was advertise and other casinos that users have complained of scamming them. I think that choose a right casino is to ask the right questions to the right people. The right person to ask is an experienced gambler.


On the other side of not creating a gambling budget is not tracking your gambling expenses. They look the same but they are not. Some gamblers have their gambling budget in their head, some wrote it at the back of their bet slip all of which are susceptible to loss and damages. I think the right thing to do is to keep track of the gambling expenses on a excel spreadsheet. I am using excel because it is the simplest to assess. At the end of 3 months the beginner can return to the sheets and know how much has been spent and how much profit they made form gambling.

One common mistake I've seen lots of gambling newbies make in online gambling site is, that they are beginning to develop skills and wining strategy by studying the game, which will make them gamble more, and each time they come up with a mindset that they have learnt new strategies. I often laugh to my satisfaction whenever I am being presented with these idea by newbies. Unknown to them that they could easily get addicted if they keep on thinking they are learning winning strategies, while the major overall outcome of their gambling experience is a huge loss. The earlier they realise that gambling is a game of luck and not a skilled game, the better for them.

OP, what did I tell you in my first reply in this thread? Lots of boring lectures and blah, blah, blah posts about responsible gambling and budgeting - exactly as I predicted. Hahaha!

Or simply being that too greedy on which this is something the most common mistake that every beginners or even with those older gamblers or veterans on the time that they do gamble on which there would really be that common urge on wanting for more profits on which this is something that you would really be coming after as always. This isnt really that shocking thing on where you would really be aiming for profits.
People would really be only making out those kind of realizations on the time that they would really be suffering with those unfortunate conditions but on the time that they arent still that experiencing such stuff
then they would really be continuing no matter what on which this is really something a mistake. This is why it would really be better to be wary with your actions if you dont really like to mess up yourself
because this is where gamblers do usually that experiencing those life unfortunate conditions when you do tolerate that much in speaking about gambling addiction due to greed.

Beginners luck.  A lot of people win right off the bat and think that's how easy it will always be.  A lot of those players get hooked and make dumb decisions trying to replicate the same experience.  It's tough to tell someone that like that how easy it is to lose because they base their decisions on experience and greed is terrible to try to overcome.
