I think that all these bad habits certainly have a bad effect on human health. But many people cannot imagine their life without smoking a cigarette every day. Same with gambling. It was interesting to look at the statistics, but I think that the global gambling turnover is increasing every year. I would like to know how long this will last, because many people end up suffering from the fact that they have lost a lot and after this families break up, and the addicted gambler must be sent for compulsory treatment.
Over my years of gambling, I have understood a lot, but one of the main things is that we and only we control the size of our bet. We are responsible not only for ourselves, but also for our family. Therefore, if we do not limit ourselves in the game and play a responsible game in which we know our loss limit for this evening, then we can call ourselves a weak player who will lose everything in the end. Remember this and learn from the mistakes of other gamblers.
Topic: What I've learned so far as a gambler - page 5. (Read 2926 times)
Yeah, we're even tired of telling the other gamblers to stop being greedy and when they need to stop, just stop completely so that they'll not wasting their money.
But that's how it is going for most of us, even if we're seeing people don't obliged with our advises, we're continuing to give them the advise that they need to hear so at least they've heard or read us give that tip of care to them.
To be honest, I also feel that boredom, which means when the people we advise really don't follow what we have suggested. I have one friend who is also quite active in online-based gambling such as slot machines, in a week he can be involved up to several times, more or less maybe 5 times a week, he is one of my close friends who often spends time together and I am very tired of telling him that don't put greed and it's better to cash out when the situation is in his favor or he means he managed to get a win. But he always says "just a little bit more", he sets a winning amount, like $200 and when his winnings are still below that amount then he won't stop. A few minutes later I'd ask him again "has it reached that amount" and he'd say "it's all gone again" and I'd honestly just laugh at him. It happens a lot, and so the point is sometimes even though we have given advice quite often it always cannot be denied that the advice we give will be completely useful, greed really makes them like closing their ears and not listening to some of the advice that comes in even from the closest people.But that's how it is going for most of us, even if we're seeing people don't obliged with our advises, we're continuing to give them the advise that they need to hear so at least they've heard or read us give that tip of care to them.
We will never get that profit if we're not contented in the first place. Whether it is a hundred dollar profit or less than that if the gambler doesn't see its worth by that time, they won't withdraw it.
Yes that's true, but sometimes there are always people who think that the greed that they apply at that time will be able to make them smile broadly at the end of the session in the sense of reaching the amount of victory they want, simply put is that they assume that "this time I will not be one of the people who are adversely affected by greed", that belief is always the initial problem. I think the main problem is in the expectations they put, if indeed they put excessive expectations on gambling then obviously something that we always consider dangerous maybe for them it doesn't hurt to try or even with a few tries, the cause is due to expectations that make their confidence even higher. But if we understand overall that greed can always be bad in any case then I think they will object to doing it and prefer to cash out early.
That's the difference of greed for them as per description. If it helps them to have that satisfaction at the end, that's good for them but for the majority, it doesn't really do any good. ~
This is called cautious gambling and it is actually wise. But you must not forget that casinos reap the most profits from addicts, not amateur gamblers.This would be clearer to see if we could get statistics on the number of active casinos versus the number of gamblers. I am sure that the number of gamblers is small compared to the number of casinos, which are considered large. The idea is that the casino can achieve large profits even with a small number of users, given that a significant percentage of them are addicts and will spend all their money.
The actual number of regular gamblers may be relatively small in comparison. This imbalance allows casinos to generate substantial profits even if only a fraction of their patrons are frequent, because they are high-spending gamblers. The concept of cautious gambling may not significantly impact the casino's bottom line. Cautious gamblers who set limits and approach gambling as a form of entertainment may not contribute big to a casino's profits as addicted gamblers who are willing to spend beyond their means. This discrepancy is not solely due to the actions of the cautious gambler but is also a result of the casino industry's reliance on addictive behaviors to drive revenue.
Despite the small number of consumers of gambling services compared to other sectors such as alcohol and tobacco, it is considered a promising sector and capable of providing fantastic profits, even with a small number of users.
We all want to win, and the desire to win is part of the game, and if we don't enjoy the game, we can't try again next time. There is no bad thing about trying to win; the only place where I see something wrong is when someone allows their desire to control their decision and their gambling habit.
We can still be lovers of the game with a high desire to win and still be in control of how we gamble. It's possible, although it's easier said than done, but everything is just based on self-discipline and control, and nothing more than that. If you decide to be in control, you can be in control of why you love the game, and anytime you win, you take it that way and still hope for that big win you desire.
The gambler should learn to live like the Phoenix bird who raise again and again in the sun.It was the story in many circle of the world,once their was the bird which fly towards the sun.As we know the birds doesn’t have capable of making the fly in sun,this over heat cause the birds to die after nearing the sun.But every time the Phoenix will get the new soul from the dust of the birds.Like this the gambler should start from the ground to reach the top winners list in the gambling site.The self confidence was the essential one to get into gambling after the big money loss in the same gambling site.The reason is the gambler get huge experience along with the loss.
At least gamblers must be able to be disciplined in their behavior when they have to decide to leave gambling because of winning or because of a losing streak.
Often we as gamblers enjoy the game too much. and always want to get bigger wins. that's what gamblers sometimes miss.
I agree that every gambler must be disciplined in gambling. that's what separates an addicted gambler from a wise gambler.

But unfortunately regret always comes at the end of the action when everything is already answered, and of course regret comes to confirm that the actions they took before were wrong, after all it is not uncommon or even very many people who advise and recommend to avoid acts of greed, especially in gambling activities, sometimes not only in this field, even in real life if we put greed then usually the final result is more disappointing, so that's why the importance of being grateful for whatever we have got. Greed is like you're negotiating with fate where basically fate has already said that that's the amount you should get in that session but because you're not grateful and instead put greed into it then fate will say something else, which is defeat. Let me know if the analogy isn't quite right.

Yes although overall greed does not always result in something worse but still if the percentage of disappointment is more often due to greed then it is better for us to avoid it. True, regret will always be a painful thing, and of course as you said that we can make it a lesson so that we don't go back into the same hole for the umpteenth time. If they have fallen in the same hole several times then I guess I have to suspect their mental health. 
Let us not give a number but let us say it this way that overall of it, the majority that are greedy doesn't end up good when they gamble.so true. the only real wealth is the casino owner. I'm sure there is a lot of manipulation in the initial profit part of the strategy. Here we have to really be in control and really know when we can stop. Unfortunately for addicts who are even willing to spend their assets, they always think this is something that can generate wealth. without realizing they are having their assets drained. no matter how rich we are if we are gambling addicts it will make our assets run out no matter how people will take them. I always make this entertainment, play for fun without involving real assets.

To be honest, I'm not sure you can control it, because it's quite difficult to leave once you're enjoying the game. 
Playing poker is an option to play fairly because you are playing against other players, not the dealer.
Once again, what we need to know is that gambling is not a suitable place for one hit one run.
The most important thing is how you control your capital so that it doesn't run out and can still enjoy the game for a long time.
It is indeed difficult to control gambling activities, especially when we can get pleasure and we may even find it difficult to stop ourselves from gambling. Playing poker requires skills to win against our opponents, and learning these skills is not easy, so we are always required to learn to improve our skills. We also have to remember to practice what we have learned to know what to study further and what else we need to learn. Having self-control when playing gambling allows us to enjoy gambling games and also know when we should stop gambling. With everything we learn, we try to become wise gamblers in gambling so that we don't lose a lot. Playing poker is an option to play fairly because you are playing against other players, not the dealer.

Well, some professional gamblers really knows how to control theirself, they can manage well their finances and spending habits and I think they really learned from their past mistakes experience that's why they are used to it when they experiencing losses now. They don't need any advices from other people because believe me, they are aware. We can call them a professional gambler but we can't deny the fact that possible they have a chronic gambling addiction.
In fact, without trying to advise people, they will definitely learn from their experience in gambling, whether it's learning from losing and how to control their emotions properly when gambling. Professional gamblers started out as beginner gamblers who always experienced many mistakes in controlling themselves when gambling. That's what is called taking. lessons from failure because without failure we will never learn to know ourselves.The way we know ourselves is to learn to understand how to control ourselves well when gambling. It is important to understand our character so that we can know what limits we have to make to be able to control ourselves, for example limiting each budget and time for gambling so that we don't get addicted to gambling easily, that's must be studied as a professional in gambling.
However, it is true that self-control and learning from mistakes when impulsive and compulsive behavior occurs when gambling is bad behavior, and we really have to be able to make ourselves aware when emotions peak and refrain from making another deposit when we lose, which I almost got a big win but just one mistake was ruined.
I have an interesting way to control yourself, namely meditation, this will trigger your logic and soul to evaluate whatever you have done, so that you realize the mistakes you have made and then you can anticipate making those mistakes. again in the future.

successful gamblers are gamblers who know their limits and when they should stop. most gamblers only know how to hone their skills and how to win the game, but they don't learn how to stop themselves further, so that makes them make mistakes which make them lose their money, even though they should be able to make a profit. and therefore when a gambler can stop himself from gambling again, there he can be said to be a gambler who has matured in gambling and is not influenced by things he shouldn't.

so true. the only real wealth is the casino owner. I'm sure there is a lot of manipulation in the initial profit part of the strategy. Here we have to really be in control and really know when we can stop.

I always make this entertainment, play for fun without involving real assets.
I agree it's really hard to make a fortune from gambling if you can't control yourself. Gamblers will not have any fear of losing their wealth if they play on the gambling platform as a means of entertainment. Addicted gamblers can't control themselves so they suffer losses but you have to understand that there are risks involved this does not mean that you will lose all your money but it is not a guaranteed strategy for prosperity. When it comes to gambling you only need to take the right steps and use the tools or resources of your choice.For gamblers who are addicted, over time they will lose their wealth and for those who are able to control themselves even though they continue to gamble, this will not be a problem as long as they limit their expenses and do not spend large amount of money to satisfy their desire to gamble because the risk in gambling is losing.
At least gamblers must be able to be disciplined in their behavior when they have to decide to leave gambling because of winning or because of a losing streak.
Often we as gamblers enjoy the game too much. and always want to get bigger wins. that's what gamblers sometimes miss.
I agree that every gambler must be disciplined in gambling. that's what separates an addicted gambler from a wise gambler.
from my experience as a gambler, discipline is indeed very important, but all of this must be done with the encouragement of a strong commitment because without the strength of commitment, discipline will not be strong and you can always be tempted by something in gambling and the commitment itself must be strengthened with a mindset or this is healthy assumption because anything related to money can definitely destroy our minds, while gambling is always related to money which can damage our commitment or discipline.Often we as gamblers enjoy the game too much. and always want to get bigger wins. that's what gamblers sometimes miss.
I agree that every gambler must be disciplined in gambling. that's what separates an addicted gambler from a wise gambler.
and the easiest way is just to value your money, bet a small amount that you can afford to lose and always keep the thought respecting money, of course you will continue to bet with the smallest amount and if you are lucky you will definitely stop soon and I call it a wise gambler.
It may seem very trivial, but if ignored, small things like this can pressure someone into becoming addicted.
Discipline in gambling is not simple for most gamblers. We read it every day, but practicing it can be a mission impossible. Due to the power gambling has on the human brain. When the losing streak follows, most gamblers won't be able to let go of the truth that they've lost in the process of gambling. Hence the game continues and even when they've won a certain amount of money, the gambler will still wager them back to the house. The self-control we are looking at as gamblers must be mastered or learned in gambling. Discipline should be the aim of gamblers, instead of money. If a player learns this, he'll be successful in every action he's about to take in life. After a few wins, I notice the brain sends out impulses that trigger me to wager more money, maybe the win could get bigger. Sometimes the instinct keeps battling with my predictions. Hence, leading me to think I'm not good enough in following my instincts.
But to a point, I found that in gambling following our instincts matters only when it tells us to stop gambling. But in terms of prediction, the house knows the trick they are using on gamblers to continue gambling. The main reason gamblers try again is that the game plays a number that we wanted to choose initially but tried another one. The player wants to get it right at all costs, believing it's his fault. But the game is controlled by the casino or the machined has been programmed to release a few wins after a player has wagered a certain amount, which obeys the house edge. Newbie gamblers need to understand all these and apply discipline as a strategy. Thereby developing rapport with the house. One can't learn what he's angry at doing or blame for his loss of money or condition. So if a gambler is performing well by enjoying the game, he'd love gambling and make good moves and predictions.

Let us not give a number but let us say it this way that overall of it, the majority that are greedy doesn't end up good when they gamble. Take the money and go away and that's going to make you happy already. Most of the gamblers are not satisfied with just a few bucks to hundreds of profits.
And that's why that instead of taking out money from the casino and be satisfied with it, many are not.
That's the reason why they keep on going on and they will have their own reasonable lessons when they've experienced these times.
Yes, that's what they should do if they manage to get a win or that means being in a situation of pretty good luck, but unfortunately most of the gamblers can't do that, the urge out of hope for something bigger always appears when gamblers are in a winning situation, instead of withdrawing or cashing out to enjoy but what they choose is to apply greed by making previous wins as capital for a much bigger win, but the question is not that it is still uncertain? Or does that mean you don't know what the next session will be like? Obviously, it's nothing more than a hallucination that comes out of the excitement of being in a winning situation.And that's why that instead of taking out money from the casino and be satisfied with it, many are not.
That's the reason why they keep on going on and they will have their own reasonable lessons when they've experienced these times.
Usually in any case if you apply greed then usually the final result will always be disappointing, it's a fact that often happens if you choose to act greedy instead of cashing out and going to enjoy it. Therefore, if you have already won then I think the best option is to cash out rather than losing all your previous winnings because of applying greed and regretting it.
Greediness will not bring us any farther. It will only teach us to be the best decision makers because we don't want to fall with the same emotions that we have. If you fall for the 2nd, 3rd or more time.
You are aware of what you're doing and you are not learning from your experience.

No one actually visits the casino to have fun
How about people that will have $200 to have fun and using just like $0.1 on every game so that the time they are gambling can be prolonged? Did you know that some people will use the whole $200 at ones and see if they win or not.
The best approach that I have thought of is to use not more than your gambling budget but with the mindset that all can be lost as long as you can afford to lose it. But after winning, it is good to just quite for the day and not have the fun again.
The greed eventually starts to kick in and those people start raising their bets. Gambling with really small bets gets boring after a while.
I know this from personal experience and I'm a very moderate gambler.
Some gamblers start chasing loses while others start chasing bigger profits. Both options are totally wrong. The longer you stay at the casino, the bigger the chance to lose more and more money. I'm not criticizing gambling in general. Everyone is free to waste his money however he wants.
In my country, if you get into an offline casino and you accidentally win 10K, the casino owner will bring some thugs and they will kick you out of the casino without paying you any profits.
That's why I don't want to visit any offline casinos. Most of them are probably owned by mobsters.Jump to:
