When someone wins, do not copy them, it's the time for them to get lucky, not yours, many gamblers think that when their friends win it is a sign that their wins is also around the corner, gambling doesn't work this way.
What I've learned as a gambler is you can not be a empty man and think about starting with gambling, you have nothing in your bank account, you owe a lot of people money, even creditors, even your family, like what kind of life is that that? Do not solve your income problem with gambling, start making money from working, not gambling.
When you gamble too much it doesn't just take everything from you but also can kill your precious life and respect that people have for you, learn to take a break from gambling, the more time you spent on gambling the more of a loser you become.
Some people can't help themselves to stop when gambling, if you are like this, after losing everything do not go back into gambling, unless you learn how to control yourself, those who can't control themselves are not safe in the hands of gambling.

No one actually visits the casino to have fun, you gotta trick the mind, I like to think of it has a fun night out and I am going to spend a few hundred dollars and have a good time and if I win it's a bonus, like I've said, you gotta trick the mind.

There is no need to deceive your own mind, in fact you are playing for fun. The question is, how does it work, is it effective, after all we will always involve emotions in every game session, whether it's when we win or vice versa. Let me take an example, there was a couple who was having a wedding, they went on holiday abroad and then accidentally visited a land-based casino. they play it for pure fun, then end up losing. After that, they will go looking for other entertainment as part of the tour they are doing. well, clearly they weren't tricking their minds to have fun.
Inversely proportional to what we do and so are you. we are fully aware that we are betting for and hoping to get something, apart from pleasant things. After all, each person's definition of fun is different. for example me, I like to bet because it's fun. it would be natural, if I expected a reward for what I bet. but if the opposite happens and in other words I lose, that means it's no longer fun. In this phase, we will involve understanding, experience and self-control. if I wasn't tempted, then I would stop. Apart from that, whatever game you play, you can have fun with it. Remember, fun starts with taste. But if it's no longer fun, it's best to stop. for me it's that simple.
Gambling companies have created gambling sites in such a way that people only get more attracted to gambling. People want to gamble even if they lose and people want to gamble even if they win a gambler takes the maximum risk of money and considers the profit and loss and then tries to gamble regularly. Many people think that what is there to learn about gambling I will gamble with my money and if I am lucky I will win money if I am not lucky I will lose money there is nothing to think or learn. Such a notion is wrong for gamblers because there is a lot to learn about gambling, just as gambling profits and losses depend a lot on luck, your gambling skills are a huge factor behind gambling profits and losses. One should try to gamble without becoming addicted to gambling and also one must have one's skills in gambling then only that gambling will bring good things for a gambler.
I don't think that gambling was created that way. Getting attracted to gambling is an emotion that every individual gambler gets because they like the feeling of winning. It is our own personal emotion that makes us go back to a gambling site. Even with losing more money, people will continue to gamble to experience the enjoyment of winning in a gambling site. I disagree, gambling casino is created to make profit. And in order to make profit, these casino should be interesting and be able to capture peoples interest and attention. The fact that gambling casinos offer a chance for individual to win huge amount, it is not due to the person's emotion that triggers their interest, but the offer made by the casino. The gamblers emotion just follow to what the casino offers.
Yes, pursuing a win is difficult for all gamblers, even pro gamblers. For those who realize it, they will not want to try to chase their win. They will finish their gambling game and leave the casino and not think about it.
It is quite difficult for games that relies on luck but on games that is greatly influenced by skills like sports-betting, it is somehow easier for those who have the knowledge of the sports.

You've done a good thing by not gambling when you have a lot of money in your wallet. This is a preventative measure so that you don't lose money from gambling. If the gamblers out there understood this, of course, they would not experience as many losses. The more money in his wallet, the more he will think about gambling for a long time. They will think that I still have a lot of money so I can use it to gamble. But they forget that there are daily needs that they have to fulfill with this money.
It is a matter of discipline that matters. i believe. It does not matter whether a person have huge bankroll or have a small one, as long as he has self-discipline, he can alwasy gamble responsibly.
What kind of experience does gambling provide? First of all, the ability to manage your emotions and the habit of careful analysis. The ability to listen to your inner voice. Those who have not achieved this do not stay in the gambling industry for a long time
Yes that makes sense and I agree with you about the way professional or experienced gamblers do it, they are not careless in making decisions, surely before that they have done some considerations, none other than because they have experienced things that have a bad impact on them, so over time they know what to do and what not to do, all of that they do just to minimize the chances of losing, it doesn't matter if they only get a small win but what is certain is not to let the number of their losses be greater. If indeed the betting they do is like sports then they must have good skills and analysis, I'm sure they will continue to study it for prevention and maximize the final result.
But still for the final result always depends on luck and they understand that, and all the preparations they have prepared are nothing but just to minimize if indeed at that time they are unlucky then the loss will not be too big. Of course, not only that, in terms of when to come in and when to go out they must also have known, along with the amount they had to bet. That is the importance of experience in any case even in gambling but it is still needed to be taken into consideration, and yes we must make it an example.
That's what professional gamblers will do because they have more experience in gambling and are able to adapt themselves well to every gambling situation. He may feel that he cannot continue gambling because the situation has changed and he does not need to force himself to keep trying. Professional gamblers also know that they will have difficulty recovering their losses and will not try to recover their losses. Most of us as gamblers can only continue to learn from our experiences and those of others so that we can improve our own abilities in gambling. Our ability here means that we can have good self-control, which can prevent us from experiencing problems that ultimately only give us a gambling addiction.But still for the final result always depends on luck and they understand that, and all the preparations they have prepared are nothing but just to minimize if indeed at that time they are unlucky then the loss will not be too big.

That is the importance of experience in any case even in gambling but it is still needed to be taken into consideration, and yes we must make it an example.
Indeed, the final result will depend on their luck, but they can really reduce their losses so that they don't become bigger than other people. They know what they have to do to avoid big losses. They just need to limit their gambling activities and not gamble excessively. That way, they can avoid big losses and can even enjoy gambling like other people do. We must also be able to learn from those who can control themselves well so that we can also apply it to ourselves.
As I said above, luck will never be seen whether you are a professional gambler or not, but the luck percentage may be the same as for beginners, or I mean it can't be known at all, but what differentiates it is the method and management that has been done. professionals are good enough to be used as examples. That's right, we can use the method they did as an example to emulate so that we don't always get worse with an increasing number of losses. That's a good alternative to choose, I think.

That is what he was saying at the end of his sentence, to have fun, while he was also aware that there are gamblers who are the opposite, so he also gave a tip on what they should do to make them more successful. Chasing a win is truly difficult, not only for you but for all of us. That is because the house always has the advantage. Accepting any kind of loss for me, is hard. This is why I never gamble if I have lots of money in my wallet.I will wait first for the time that I will spend all or most of them, and I will leave something for use in gambling. This is in case I lose, I will never have a reason to return in the casino again. Each of us has their own lucky time. So it's also possible for us to recover what we have lost. The only problem is we have no idea if when it will come or it's already in us by the time we lose our first, second, and so on... deposits.

They will think that I still have a lot of money so I can use it to gamble. But they forget that there are daily needs that they have to fulfill with this money.
That will only be experienced by gamblers who cannot control themselves. As gamblers, we must be able to learn from what happens while we gamble and learn from other people's experiences. It will mature our way of thinking so that we will only use gambling as entertainment.
Gambling is dependent on luck, but we can be on the profiting side if we know when to stop and take a break. Most of us don't follow it, just the wins keep us high and we go for increased bet value. The same ends our wager at the shortest. To be on the safer side better choice is to spend on sports betting than casino games.
I think a gambler should set limits. Because there is no end to winnings in gambling. After winning a bet, gamblers are interested in winning another one. So if limits can be set then a gambler can take a break after one win or two which will help him to conduct smooth gambling. Maybe many people who are new to gambling don't want to take a break, they try to continue their gambling until they have as much bankroll as possible. But when they lose again and again, they can realize this.and impulsive reaction or response could be avoided.
Dont let yourself experience those disasters and huge devastation first before you would really be making any learning. You would really be able to avoid
things if you are really just that making yourself that wary into others experiences as well.
Setting limitations on gambling games like slots is good at managing people's money. But, the problem remains if the gambler would keep to his goals of limiting his fun for 5 hours for instance. I think once a player is tired of sitting down too long on his PC he'll have to stop playing. The fun of playing games most times removes those pains, from our brain, of sitting too long. Less disciplined players looking to garner quick money won't stick to the plans if they've not won a significant amount. Players fail to understand that, sometimes we'll win and other days things will get different. When the parallel losses come earlier than they expected, and towards the end of the limits, they begin to win, it'll be hard to quit at that very moment. And it's the hardest aspect of setting limits. Using the Esport players as another example. They can easily blow up their wins, and wonder about what led them into such a mistake. It's always an uncontrollable action. So, to be better off, by limiting our money we have to stop when no wins are available, and continue when we win eventually. Thereby, playing the game with the amount of money we've won. Unless the player is there strictly for fun; then he doesn't have any reason to bother about win or lose. He'll just have to play until the money set aside for gambling is exhausted.
If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.
Maybe if most of us haven't experienced having this kind of temptation we may not really understand what's at stake for taking a decision in a critical time like this, the more we gamble the more we will always want more with gambling because no one would wanted to settle for less when they are having the opportunity to make more despite the high risk being involved, yet yiuy will still found out that some are taking their eyes away as if they don't know what's at stake.

This is the right idea, because there is an opinion that gambling addiction begins when a player wins a huge amount. For example, you earn 500 dollars on full-time work, and you have earned 50,000. Of course, you will have a complete devaluation of your past work at work "why did I work so much if you can get money like this?" Therefore, this is a very dangerous moment - winning at the initial stages of gambling.
It makes sense that they would think or assume as you said "why am I working so hard but the returns are so much lower than the gambling winnings", I'm sure this mindset assumption would be in every person who just got a big win. You probably already know what they will do next, chances are they will quit their job and focus only on gambling to win like before. But here I will ask if you can always get a win in every session you gamble? I'm sure the answer is no, and that means there is absolutely no consistency and guarantee to earn right? I hope you use your common sense logically to think.
Of course, a minority of players will receive such a prize.
But then what will make them play on? And I will answer: this is the expectation of such a win. Especially when such a gambler has a friend with a copious win. And envy will only drive this "loser player" harder to make money, so that fate will also give him money as soon as possible, in the form of a casino win. And so justice will be restored in his eyes.
I believe I have answered your question. Do you agree with me?

It depends on each person because I only use casinos to have fun with some money. I don't chase wins because it's very difficult for me. If I lose, I will just walk out of the casino and maybe I will return to gambling a few days later.
I didn't think about recovering my losses from the previous day. I even forgot how much money I deposited the previous day. I always make sure to deposit an amount of money that I can afford to gamble with. So far, I am still fine, even though I still often gamble and experience defeat.
Don't ever think about chasing victory or recovering from defeat because it is difficult. Many gamblers have tried it but only a few of them have succeeded in doing it.

It's easy to say but it's hard to do. You won't understand what's the actual feeling in that situation if you are just a casual gambler.
Hard to resist stopping when your bankroll just doubled playing. There's always in our mind pushing us to continue playing since we are lucky that time. Why should we stop in the first place is always dominating our minds. If the gambler was really able to control themselves to stop on that session once their bankroll got double, then good for them.
For me, it's fine not to stop right away after getting a big profit in a session as long as we just have to make sure that later on, we will cash out some of our wins.
Good for you OP that you learned something good in your gambling experience.

True, even outside gambling it is always easier said than done. And I see nothing wrong with people continuing to bet even if their capital just got doubled. Responsible gamblers already have fixed budgets and some others have their time limits. It will only become a mistake if the player loses his budget yet decides to continue or his planned time runs out yet stubborn not to follow it and continue.
If I were in the situation, I would also continue playing. Maybe I will risk half of my profit until I feel the need to stop or until my scheduled time runs out.

If you are person whose really that not good on controlling your emotion and mind then it would really be that a big problem or a huge one which it would causes up some disaster on the time that you would really be putting yourself on such difficult situation on which it is really just that right that we should really be that careful on making up such decision. Learning isnt necessary considering that gambling is really just that good for fun but if you are already that making it as a source of income then this is where problem do exist or happens. You would eventually learn up things according on what you do experience, if you are that really having that kind of impulsive emotion then it is really just
that right that you should really be having a good control of it.
If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.
Many people think that to be successful in gambling you just need to set a maximum loss limit and that when this limit is reached it is time to stop, when in fact the maximum gambling limit is also very important or even more important than the spending limit.
In any case, I believe that a 100% limit is too little and that it should vary from one player to another.
It is "normal" for a player to be able to double his winnings in a few plays and I don't believe he should stop playing at that moment. However, I think it is quite prudent for him to at least reserve 50% to 80% of the amount won and not bet any more, that way he can still try his luck by winning even more, but if he is unlucky, he will not lose everything he has won.
As gamblers if we don't let the game take control of us we won't be carried away to still stay and gamble despite after having a win that has multiplied our money. If we all can exercise the hit and run approach as gamblers the issue of losses will be a thing of the past but a lot of gambler get greed with each winning they want another, and then another, forgetting that luck is not constant and with each chance you have it at your side you gat to use the hit and run approach because you can't win all the money you're aiming for in one day.
But what happens is that people let gambling games dominate their minds, and it makes them return to gambling more often than before. They forget the self-control they have exercised and do not realize that they have lost that self-control. They just want to recover the losses they have made from gambling or win another big win even though they have already had that big win before. They also don't realize that they need to rest first before they continue gambling again. As gamblers, we can learn from other people's experiences, which can increase our insight into controlling ourselves so that we don't get involved in gambling because only we can restore our awareness that gambling is just entertainment.You would eventually learn up things according on what you do experience, if you are that really having that kind of impulsive emotion then it is really just
that right that you should really be having a good control of it.

This is actually true, if you are lucky in the first few hours then get out. As luck wouldn't last for hours in casino, the longer you play the more you are losing. Same as the more greedy you become the more greedier you'll become.This thing happened to me, got lucky my $20 becomes $200 then ended up to $40. I know if I continue to risk it, it's either I go home double my money or ended up nothing.
