Topic: What I've learned so far as a gambler - page 15. (Read 2934 times)

But unfortunately, we are in gambling where the chances of success will be small compared to if we try from our business or job. We will only experience bigger failures and the harder we try, we probably won't be able to last longer at gambling because our losses will also be bigger. As gamblers, we should learn not to gamble excessively because it will only make us lose too much without being able to recover the losses. We can gain experience from studying other people's experiences or from what we have experienced so that we don't have to experience as many defeats as other people. We are the ones who have to limit the number of losses and be able to stop gambling before things change for the worse. There is still a chance for us to gamble another day so we don't need to force ourselves to continue gambling.

All gamblers definitely don't want to experience the downturn that many gamblers have experienced. If they can't control themselves, that's what will come to them and ultimately take all their money without any remainder. They must understand that defeat is something they will experience more often than victory, so they must be able to reduce the number of losses. And if they can learn from other people's experiences, it can definitely increase their knowledge about what to do when gambling and how to reduce the number of losses. As they train themselves to control themselves more and more, they don't worry about losing a lot of money because they already have signs that will warn them to stop gambling immediately.

Gambling is not entirely about luck, just like gambling is about luck, if you don't know about gambling, you won't know when to make a decision. And if the right decision is not taken at the right time, then gambling has more chances of loss than profit. Let me give you a simple idea, suppose you want to place a bet and the opponents in that bet are Australia cricket team and Netherlands cricket team. Now if you don't know about cricket and you can't figure out the strength of these two teams then will it be the right decision for you to just rely on luck? First you need to have proper understanding about betting or gambling then depend on luck only then gambling results can come in your favor.

But people do actually visit casinos to have fun. Some people in search for emotions are ready to spend any money. Some say that gambling is the cheapest way to get an adrenaline. You can spend few thousands to organize yourself a jump with a parachute, and you can feel similar emotions with placing a few thousand bet. In both cases you spend money, but in second you might get them back.

Yes of course, as in the business field, someone will not be able to achieve success if they never experience failure first at the beginning, none other than because it is the failure that they will make a lesson so that in the future they do not fall into the same hole, that's just an example and still I will not associate gambling with other fields such as business because in gambling there is absolutely no element of achieving success because everything goes randomly and always cannot be predicted. Yes, the only problem for beginners is their very limited experience, and maybe that's natural because they are beginners who certainly don't know too much or haven't experienced many things that are there.

But on the other hand it cannot be used as a complete excuse for them, because obviously on the other hand they can learn from other people's experiences such as seeing the downturn experienced by addicts, I understand that all gamblers do not want to experience a lot of defeat problems, especially in large quantities, therefore, especially for beginners, there is one way they can do it, namely by learning from the experiences of professional people, they are still fine and you also have to be able to do it like them if you want to survive and be fine. In terms of luck, novice gamblers can be luckier than professionals or vice versa, no one knows.

Reallife experience tells me that what we deceive is by simply sampling the trap without accepting judgment. I think it is the fairness of life, when there are agreements that are signed invisible and we ourselves do not receive the accepted behavior from whence it started.
I was also addicted to gambling, and witnessed many people close to me addicted to gambling, and we all accept the fact that environmental exposure leads to people with different understanding of the problem making different choices. Because in the end, gambling is just a small part of the countless areas that exist in life that serve people, no matter what angle you look at it, there is no need to evaluate them too seriously.

Let me start by correcting you that it's not a must for you to experience errors and wrongdoings by yourself, you can outrightly learn from the mistakes of others and use them to guide yourself to the right part. This is a smart approach for anyone both in gambling and outside it, it's a way to move ahead and also an effectual part of any advice given by the experienced ones. For the other parts, I believe that gamblers should sustain moral values of gambling and most importantly gamble responsibly. This context alone will go a long way in helping any gambler to sustain a very good gambling culture.

You do not gamble beyond your pocket, and not only that, even if the pocket is big, you don't gamble beyond what you planned to. Gamblers should be well-calculative and strategists not minding the popular saying that gambling is a game of luck. As much as luck could play its fate, the creativity, efforts and experience of the gamblers will also go a long way. Gamblers must be observant and never allow emotions in, once they are losing beyond their plan, it's brave to shun gambling immediately and take a break in days or weeks at times. With all these, I believe every gambler could be better in their games.

You're wrong, not every individuals gambling is doing that to make profits, some individuals are just there to have fun but if they make profits that's a bonus they won't reject. Take celebrities as an example, some of them are been paid to use some casino to bring publicity to the casino. They might be having fun but you'll think they're trying to win. It doesn't matter if they win or lose but they'll still get paid, some casino go as far as giving them the money they lost back.

This are also how some wealthy individual do, they gamble for the excitement it gives they don't care if they win or lose and some regular individuals also do this and not just the wealthy individuals. Gambling should be considered a form of entertainment and not what you do for the purpose of making money as you'll be disappointed most of the times. If you want to get income, look for reliable things that can give you that like a job that you'll get paid for doing.

From this experience, we can learn a lot so that we can avoid the problems that many people have experienced. We can also learn from our experiences to increase the knowledge we have and know what we should do. Beginner gamblers may not have much experience, but they can learn from other gamblers, especially preventing large losses or managing their finances. If novice gamblers can learn from their experiences and the experiences of others, they will be able to control themselves well and will make fewer mistakes in the future.

If it were luck, we probably wouldn't have the same luck so maybe novice gamblers could have better luck than other gamblers. We can only try to be wise gamblers in gambling and always try to control ourselves well so that we don't suffer big losses. If we can do this, we will become gamblers who can enjoy good gambling moments and will not chase wins or want to recover losses.

What are the lessons we can learn from gambling? First, of course, the things that other gamblers have done wrong, I guess. We can learn from the wrong strategies or things they have done in gambling. As surely as the winner is the loser, which should be stopped and come back another time.

What are the other things I learned in gambling? Let's not chase our losses just because we want to get them back when we win again in our betting. If we are unlucky, we should stop and instead take a break first.

There's a lot to always talked about when it's all about gambling, leaning never ends as we all commonly believed, in gambling also, I've learnt alot regarding taking risk i gambling, using money for gambling, fighting at the course of gambling, earning with gambling and losing money as well in gambling, all these would have taught as many of us a lifetime lesson we may never forget when it comes to gambling because we have witnessed how everything is being done when we fall into the category of those affected by one of them.

I think your idea about gambling is absolutely wrong, entering to a casino with the idea of winning or profiting you will 99% of the time lose yoir money. Personally, winning in a casino means having good time and spending your money to get adrenaline rush.
Well, winning 200$ with only 200$ balance is doubling you account and I think it's enough to leave or at least withdraw a part of your balance and continue with a small sum just for fun and try your luck more until you lose. But the idea of winning always is so wrong and may take you to chasing your losses.

Do you think that talking a lot and thinking so much about how to gamble can effect you badly? For me, when I have time it's good for me to have a session of gambling.

If you carefully observe the behaviours of recent gamblers on how they carry on forward the delusions of existing gamblers before them you will wonder if they really give a damn about the ugly experiences. I'll suggest that gamblers don't learn from the bad experiences of other gamblers the only time they learn is when it's a personal experience that happens to them where they lose big money due to how they refuse to leave when they had a big win, or when they were after their loss or when they had to escape from gambling addiction by some means. Etc.

Those who win jackpot in gambling are those who who don't take gambling as serious and if they win so its okay otherwise they are not in an addiction to recover money back and play more and more. Successful traders have minimum budget for gambling and they never use more money than this limited amount. If a person know that in gambling he cannot get anything but is losing money everyday then remains a constant participants of gambling after that will attract him towards other bad activities. I don't think that gambler will ever regret for his activities because his mind losses the ability to think positively.

To feel less disappointed about bringing nothing home. It'll be better to first think that, you'll bring back nothing, then play to win something home. This way the player would be more calculative about his moves and try his best not to lose. Unfortunately, if the win doesn't show up, then the player won't have to bite himself with anger. Because, when we think of our games going to bring us more win and it doesn't it's more painful. Hence, if a player doesn't want to accept that gambling is for fun, then he should face whatever results he gets with joy or sadness. These two only have a thin line and is controlled by choice. Not the results we get. We've seen other experienced players who don't feel bad after losing out in gambling. Just because they chose not to be sad. I don't get it why people would choose to be controlled emotionally by win or loss in gambling. Such a person isn't expected to be a gambler, or should be completely categorized a newbie. Everyday we lose money, ranging from food, transportation, bills etc and it doesn't get us sad. But, once it's about gambling, the facial reaction begin to change in anger. Who then is the brain deceiving? when the decision is on our own side. Whenever a player notice he's about to spend more that his emotions can't control. Then, to stay happy, he should stop. Imagine if the player gambles everyday, and losses each time he gambles. Does it mean he'll never see happiness all week round? That means his gambling journey will lead him to a different dimension of life, where he can't mention to anybody; addiction. As he'll be chasing happiness, until he's no longer in control of the race. Happiness should be from within, win or lose shouldn't have the authority to change it.

You are completely right, I believe that alot of gamblers actually got into gambling solely for making money purposes, not just to have fun, if gambling was all about just having fun, then we did have a lot of gamblers gambling around the world, but as it is, many have tried gambling and lost money, and probably weren't pleased with the way they felt, and they stopped gambling and never returned to it again, while some others like some of us tried, lost, we still felt we should try again, and we did and won, then continued and lost again, and won again, and lost again and so on.

That is exactly how gambling is so many people, gambling can make someone a millionaire over night, same way it can wreck one overnight as well, but as much as we all know that we are here to make money and not all for fun, it is still important to practice responsible gambling at all times, so we don't end up becoming problem gamblers.

That art of knowing when to leave the casino is what most gamblers has failed to master and they have to pay darely and lave the casino with nothing but regrets every single time because everyday would be a loosing day for you, even the days that are meant to be your lucky day would end up being as bad as other days because of the inability to know when to call it a quit when you make some good wins.

Some people just walk into the casino, just to give to the casino and they see absolutely nothing wrong with that, and these folks are the high stakes. X2 is not a big win for them, X5 still doesn't sound like a big win for them. The whole idea is to recover in that day every cent they've lost to the casino in the previous days and at the end loose everything until they're left with nothing. I think that's a very irresponsible and immature way to gamble.

The gambler will earn good knowledge from the gambling sites,even they had loss some of the dollars due to the bad luck.As we know the luck may change and help the same gambler to get settle in their life using the knowledge in the gambling sites.My friend had loss over 10k dollars in the gambling sites in last 6 months,many people criticized him for the big loss in the gambling site.The wife of my friend had left,nearly it close to the divorce for the big loss.Last month he trust the gambling sites and play the gambling using their life saving money of 1k dollars.You don't believe this,he had won the biggest jackpot from the lottery and earned 60k dollars in the same gambling sites.Now he owned the new company based on logistics and his wife back to his home.So the single win in the gambling site will make the entire change in your life.

True. There are ways to have fun without spending a dime. We gamble because we want to go home with more than the capital we bring, it could be double or triple but will always depends on your luck. In short we want luck unfortunately it is not that easy and there is no guarantee to have a winning streak, the opposite might possibly happen. Instead of bringing home more than your capital, you might end up bringing nothing.

Honestly, it was quite difficult to drive our minds to think that this is just for fun because our main goal is to win the jackpot prize and give most gamblers a reason why they are here. We live is such an assumption already that gambling makes someone rich because we saw some lucky gamblers win the jackpot prize in lotteries and totally change their lives then more people got the courage and hope they could do it as well. Unfortunately, what they got is only losses and desperation just like what I felt before but I realize that was wrong.

"if you want to make money with gambling, own the casino" is a proverb I can never get over with, when I first came across this proverbs, I think I paused and read it over and over again for over 10 times or more, and I think this indeed overly changed my initial perspective or perception concerning gambling.

It is particularly true that we are mostly in gambling to make money, and not entirely to have fun, but just as you have correctly said it, it is still very important for us to trick our minds to believe that we are doing it to have fun, this is actually very important for our well-being, it is the same as believing that a money is lost before it's actually lost, one doesn't feel too bad since he or she only lost money that was already lost, this are things we trick our minds to believe, so that we can ultimately enjoy gambling, and even if at the end of the day, we do not win anything, we don't regret it that much.
