Topic: What I've learned so far as a gambler - page 8. (Read 2726 times)

a positive mindset is very important in gambling and that what I mean, it is very important that we instill a healthy mindset to avoid any bad impacts in gambling and related to a positive mindset that will bring luck and victory, I think this can be done in sports betting only because with a calm mind and healthy thinking, we will be able to analyze more accurately to find the biggest opportunity on which team we will bet on to win.
but if we relate a healthy mindset to casino games such as slot, dice, etc. which are related to luck, I think we will get the same results and its just that a healthy mindset can protect us from bad things like chasing losses.

Avoiding gambling addiction is actually easy if we have boundaries and a strong stance on gambling, it's just that many people can't control themselves so they can't limit themselves in gambling making them addicted to chasing their lost money. the possibility of those who do not have gambling restrictions, they are easily attracted to gambling so they don't think about the risk of losing a lot of money. It is unfortunate that they are already addicted to gambling, of course this is not a good thing if they are already addicted to gambling. So we should gamble reasonably not to exceed the obvious limits that will harm us. As much as possible we should be able to have limits in gambling because that can help us ourselves not with others.

Many things will be harmed if you are addicted to gambling. Gambling addiction can occur because they cannot control their emotions when they lose, because they cannot accept the defeat they get makes them irresponsible in gambling. No one else is influential in gambling, because other people can only give advice the rest of the full control is in us. So it's best to accept advice and input from others for consideration so as not to become addicted to gambling.

The longer you stay gambling the more experienced you turn out gambling, but this still doesn't guarantee wins gambling, it only gives you an edge especially in making certain picks and mistakes which a novice would make naturally but with your experience you could avoid such.

Learning is something that applies all round in our daily activities in life generally, we don't only apply learning in gambling alone but aswell in other aspects of our lives. Staying disciplined is one factor that enhances responsibility, if a gambler isn't discipline enough they can never be able to gamble responsibly, they will be reckless even with lay down guides, but if they are disciplined, they gamble responsibly.

Can self-control always be trusted, especially in gambling environments? Gambling activates the brain's reward system, overriding rational thought, according to behavioral psychology research. The idea that luck will change can cause even the most disciplined gamblers to bet more and lose more. Are we overestimating human willpower in the face of sophisticated gambling system psychological traps? The recommendation to limit every budget and time sounds reasonable, but is it successful in gambling? Due to the addictive nature of gambling, many people struggle to stick to limitations after starting. The industry exploits this shortcoming. Given the risks and the design of gambling games to encourage risk-taking and continual play, isn't the recommendation to bet responsibly paradoxical? Could enjoy gambling be deadly because gambling contradicts responsible play?

There is no end to learning from gambling as you go up you will see both its success and its horrors. Some are getting success by gambling and some are so engrossed in the world of gambling that they don't think about their family and society they become worse day by day and make their life miserable. If a person is not responsible even if he learns it will not be useful. Learning about the downsides of gambling along with managing your life properly will reduce the damage.

I've experienced something like you before. And this is indeed the temptation of gambling that can make us return to gambling even though we have won quite a lot. But because greed comes when we win, we forget to stop gambling immediately and it makes us decide to continue gambling. This makes us experience big losses because we instead use the winning money to continue gambling without any desire to withdraw the winning money and only leave a small amount of money. We really become greedy when we win a lot of money. That is a valuable lesson that we must always remember so that we don't do it again and can withdraw the winnings.

Right. However, Gambling with a large amount like $200 isn’t bad or wrong tho. For me, I just don’t advise anyone to do that. There are some people who are really brave and love to take risk, some of them are usually lucky and things tend to work for them. But if you know that there’s a lot to do with $200 (like me), better don’t stake it in the first place because what usually hurts when one loses is the recognition of the problems that money could have solved.

About the irresponsible gambler title, it’s best to keep your winnings and losses to yourself. If you tell people how you risked $xxx, they’ll say you’re irresponsible and don’t know what to do with money. If you also tell them you risked $xxx and won 10x, they’ll congratulate you saying you’re a courageous person and they may even start telling you their life problems, so you can help. Best to stay on your own.

I agree with you that starting a gambling or depositing with higher figure will only make you to either have high wins or high loss, so its better to start with a small amount or gamble with small amount because, the feeling of playing more to recover from your lost might occur and you might end up emptying your account just to recover from your loss, I often gamble with small amount of money so as to control my the feeling of playing to recover, that feeling is one of the reasons some person are called irresponsible gambler and with that tittle on your head I don't think it will portray good example when your being described.

If you can control yourself when gambling, you will definitely avoid gambling addiction. We know that addiction is difficult to cure, which is why it is important to manage your emotions and control yourself when gambling. Don't be reckless in taking unnecessary actions when gambling, for example trying to recover money lost from losses. because it will only continue to drain more of the money we have.

That's why it's important to play responsibly and wisely in limiting bets when gambling so that you don't go beyond the limits which will end up playing emotionally and seem careless. Gambling is not just about money and winnings, but taking advantage of it. The most important thing is to always limit every budget and Time when gambling is very important to limit yourself.

Wow. So much guts to even gamble with $200 at once . I don’t advise anyone to directly stake their $200 at once. Instead of that, you can stake $20 and try to double that. I know that on your way to the $200 extra, you’ll lose some of the bets, but gradually you can get there. It’s better to slowly win or even slowly lose (if luck isn’t on your side that day) than a one shot 50/50 chance of losing all the money. But I get what OP is trying to say; don’t be greedy, don’t think you can build castles overnight, 2 times your money is enough to leave and be content, and I agree.

It seem to have happened every time. I deposit $20 for dice and then turned it into $50 and the next hour all are gone through the losing streak. This doesn't happen in sports betting though so there is a chance that you may successfully win in more than a day in sports if luck permits.

You just gotta withdraw every time so you got your capital back and no regrets in time when you lost it all.

Isn't it more healthier to believe that you will lose your money everytime you gamble? I also do the same and when the unexpected happens I am always shocked and I slowly click on withdrawal to get the money out until I am ready to gamble another day, the reason why you win when gambling is to brainwashed you into thinking that you are just getting started, more winning on the way.

Before you know what's going on, all the money you just win will be taken from you again, you don't want to mess with the casinos, they know what they are doing, so when win comes unexpectedly it's time for you to take your profit and maybe quit for that day and try again on another day.

Gambling is not an asset that you can invest your money on, it's gambling, basically a game of trying your luck, it's all written over it, meaning you won't always win every time, I wholeheartedly believe that playing with small amount of money makes you the best gambler, don't get your mind fixed on winning and don't use what you can't afford to lose.

They will make you win at the first time and I think that's what makes it more inviting. Just recently, I won like 10x of my capital even though I am betting just small amounts. I was also shocked at how it happened because I was expecting to lose all the time. But, when you keep on betting, gambling sites will definitely take it back without us realizing it because our aim is to just get our money back.
I even questioned how the RTP works but you cannot do that, especially in a risky environment like gambling. It's not an investment that we can fight our way for management to answer our questions. This is gambling and we should know the risk we are taking while making our bets.
There's no such thing as winners in gambling unless we know when to stop. Discipline. But I doubt that can be seen in gamblers because we are always greedy and want better profits than what we already have.

What you did, that's good. Doing gambling while enjoying the fun is not everyone can do it, only some people do gambling like that. Because what I know is that they gamble by chasing wins that make them crazy, in the end the same defeat they get. Then what causes loss and frustration?
Gambling can be fun if their goal is not about winning, but to find entertainment in the game. The thrill in the game can actually be found by making them happy with the game, but as far as I know most of them are gambling to pursue victory. Fun gamblers have limits they don't gamble by going crazy with the winnings they get, they won't deposit continuously when they lose, they will take a ledge to stop when they lose and rest themselves, and can come back next time, to find fun with the other side trying their luck.

It is more important to gamble responsibly than to gamble following greed. Gambling responsibly obviously has a good attitude towards gambling, whereas gambling following greed, it is likely that they will not find a point of satisfaction, even if they get a big win if they do not feel satisfied then they will continue to gamble out of their control.

Therefore, the fault is not in the gambling, the fault is in themselves who cannot control themselves properly, because of that there are some people from them gambling madly. They do not think about the losses they have experienced, and the losses they get do not make them stop gambling there, because they cannot control themselves so they gamble beyond normal limits.

People who are wise in gambling, they can control themselves when they win or lose, because with self-control they are able to limit their own gambling.

There are many lessons to be learned from gambling, but most of the time we see lessons from the grim picture. We cannot learn anything good from the life story of a gambler because he causes so much miserable in his family that he brings bad name to the rest of the family. In our country, gamblers are looked down upon in the society so much that people do not want to associate with them, even the movement of others. So for the time being, those who are not addicted to gambling should not be tied to this terrible and deadly addiction.

A few things I would like to know that is when you gambled, did you keep it under control or did you lose your money hoping to get more? I have seen many gamblers who continue to gamble when they win more than gambling and blame the gambling when they have another big loss. It is completely foolish to expect gambling is only for win. Because gambling means uncertainty. If a gambler does not accept gambling for passive income rather to spend some time then they are the ones who are suitable for gambling. There are no rules in gambling where there is any chance of earning money regularly but it is natural that those who try to get extra money will lose here. Generally gambling involves the amount of money that will not cause any loss if lost. But if one loses the necessary money by gambling then he must suffer loss through gambling.

First of all no matter how much you lose in gambling whenever you play a new game or win a new bet you should come with the positive mind set. The reason is that whatever work you do or the game you play if you have positivity they are more chances that luck will favour you and you will win that bet.

Yes there are many things like money management , being responsible but one thing which analysed that will make you healthy gambler and a positive gambler is that when you gamble you should always come up with opposite frame of mind.

this is the bad impact of a gambler who has the wrong mindset towards gambling which should be considered as entertainment to try his luck when he only has money left, but gamblers who have a negative mindset regarding gambling as a place to double their money will definitely experience initial addiction or even very severe addiction. it even harms people around them or their own families and there are lots of crimes that I have seen recently in the media, some young people steal money just to pay off their debts because they previously had a loan somewhere to play slots.
In this case, gamblers should be aware and really understand cases like this and not ignore them because even though this is only a small scenario, it is very important for their mental health to avoid addiction.

maybe there are also gambling addicts who have truly recovered and are no longer addicted but still gamble with very high commitment and consistency because they have had very bad experiences and these experiences provide very valuable lessons for gambling healthily.

Gambling teach us lot of things but matter of sorrow we don't noticed it . I'm just kidding gambling the the life chenger if we learn it what gambling try to teach us. I don't know what people think about gambling but in my opinion gambling is the game which teach us how to lead life how to be responsible in life. Without being responsible in life and gambling you can't do nothing etc or other things.

The gambler who can control themselves in the gambling after getting addicted in the gambling will not affect the society in any way.Because they can control their own addiction itself using their self control tactics to the gambling play.The gambling addict will destroy their own future by doing some crime activities to get the funds for the gambling.So the gambling addicted person will be jailed and loss of their own life.The gambling addict also affect the peace of their family members because of their addiction.So the gamblers should understand the fact gambling is for entertainment.
