I consider myself a "conservative player".

Now I am a very prudent and practical player. I have very tight control over the size of the gaming budget and the time allotted for gambling. However, this was not always the case. I used to be a compulsive gambler. I was completely obsessed with roulette and thought only of gambling. My addiction to gambling was in the nature of a drug addiction. I was aware of this problem and developed a clear algorithm for getting rid of this gambling addiction.

My method was based on the fact that one addiction can be overcome with another addiction. I managed to get rid of the gambling addiction.

Now I am a "conservative player".

That is a good approach - being a conservative player. Did you know in many cultures gambling is not allowed.
Because gambling is a very dangerous gambling you can lose your good amount saving in a jiffy. And when you get up in the morning and come out of the alcohol you get to know that what have you done to yourself.

Well I don't really know the type of gambler that I am but I think I am a casual gambler. I gamble anytime that I like with looking at many factor of whether I have to win by all means. I don't take gambling as too serious because I have other means in which I make money. Gambling is not meant to be taken too seriously because we can lose money anything if we are too greedy or too money conscious. Gambling is supposed to be taken light and not too serious just like as many of us used to see it. Lucky comes to us anything so winning a bet is not always certain.

That's why it's still better to just play gambling with no other thought but to have fun, if you win or lose it's okay with you, that's how a player who enters a gambling platform should behave. So being what kind of gambler you are is no longer important to you because it is just a hobby for you that is as simple as that.

Every casual gambler just understands what gambling is and there's no need for them to fall for that much addiction. If they lose for the day, that's already enough and they call it the end for that day. There's no need to be too good on it if you can simply gamble and earn some and win some and when you're done, you don't ask for more especially in losing because what's done is enough and you don't want to accumulate more losses and can try again the next day.

That is correct. Most of the people seem to be here are casual gamblers and they need to understand that the hard earned money has to taken care of and not to be wasted like crazy. However - gambling is a serious addiction it better to know when to leave if you are at the losing end.

As a casual gambler, we all know when to leave and stop when it's necessary and when it is okay to lose all that we've got. It's the mindset as a gambler and understanding your situation.
Because you just can't gamble with everything that you can if it's a random time when you gamble, it's okay when you have it on plan and you're very much okay to lose it all.

Interesting to see that majority of the poll answered that they are either: (1) casual and social gamblers; and (2) conservative gamblers.

Personally, I only gamble purely out of entertainment or whenever someone forces me to. In the event that I am also in a gambling establishment, I would most likely gamble away only a handful amount of my capital just to personally try and experience the thrill of winning/losing. Regardless of the result, I am satisfied with it since my aim is just to experience and feel the overall vibe on it.

Unlike other gamblers who specifically do such act for profit, they are the ones who are at most risk of suffering from addiction.

Honestly, I think the tendency to become a gambling addict is subjective. If we analyze why people got addicted to gambling, isn't it due to dopamine? Not because a person is chasing losses or wanted to win? And dopamine has something to do with the reaction of our body to entertainment. Thinking further, why do professional gambler has the least tendency to become gambling addict? Let alone these professional gamblers aim to get profit and not entertainment. I agree that chasing losses can create more losses but it is not the trigger for being a gambling addict.

Easy to say on leaving when at loss but we know that majority is really that impulsive when it comes to gambling where dealing with it is really something hard to resist specially when you are at loss.
When you do know that you do still have money into your pocket then most likely you would really be spending it until you do lost it all or comes to a point that you dont have money to be spent off
but if those amounts were really that intended to be used in gambling and lose it all and you are willing to spend then i dont really see much of an issue.
Each of us does have different takings about gambling whether some do believe that its an easy quick rich scheme or way but once they do face up the reality for themselves then they
would surely able to find out and realize on how people should be dealing with it.

By reading the posts I can see many members here are casual gamblers. Maybe people are getting smarter and are not interested in wasting their money in gambling where there are extreme chances - You are a winner or you're a loser. There is no mercy in this game as well.

I sit on both casual and a conservative type of gambler. I only gamble when I miss the thrill of it and open to explore more games that will catch my interest. I would love to go to a real casino and try the games there that I just only know by name. I know that some of those games are already available on a computer or mobile device but going to a real one is really different because you will know personally how those business works and meet people that are really rich.

They should be more and not interested in wasting their money on gambling because the losing factor will be greater than the winning factor. This is already better than just playing gambling and spending money on gambling. If we can maintain this and not get caught up in gambling, it can also make us avoid addiction, which can happen at any time. That's why we must be able to take care of ourselves as well as possible in playing gambling.

that is very correct - setting the boundaries in life and gambling and even in every stage of life is very important.
Loosing hard earned money with your own hands is like burning money with your own hands. Lets get a bit more serious toward life and set the boundaries straight.

That is true, there is nothing bad in gambling, but when using what you can afford to lose to gamble, when it comes to risking high, playing more than normal and becoming an addict, it is not bad for such person to just quit gambling. But if someone continue to gamble responsibly and not addicted to it, using few cents to gamble is not bad at all.

Quote from: Rengga Jati on July 08, 2022, 05:59:51 PM

Yes, of course this is normal. Especially when someone gambles, in fact he should be well aware that he will not always win. Losing in gambling is very common and often occurs both on a large and small scale. That's why it's important to have risk management and money in gambling. Even though gambling is just for fun, it is also necessary to have these two things in order to keep ourselves sane and not to feel frustrated when we lose continuously. Especially regarding readiness for the various risks of gambling itself.

Gambling is just for fun but we can not deny the fact that some people find themselves in gambling addiction. All gamblers should always have it in their mind, be checking themselves to know if they are addicted to gambling. Gamblers should avoid addiction. Like you also said, gamblers should know they can not always win, but better for gamblers to know that they will lose more if they gamble more.

but now base on what I have read from this thread base on the explanations you made here ,I now fall in the category of professional gambler because they said experience is the best teacher, I'm into more of the business side now than before.

Maybe you shouldn't go professional as that could bring back your old habits as I read previously of you been an addict in your topic you started. Maybe just go causal, only gamble for fun and entertainment as this won't turn you back into an addict again and cost you funds which could lead to depression. Do note that, the business side of Gambling could be very addictive as you would have to gamble frequently.

Gamblers shift to different phases as their stay in the industry gets longer. Someone could have started gambling just to catch fun but as he/she begin to see some revenue coming from his bets he might begin to get tempted to invest more time and probably money as well.

It is difficult for me to know at what level a professional player is considered, which is very different from trading, because I consider that a trader is professional when he handles figures of $1M and above, and if I take that amount as a reference, I think I am very very far from it, so it does not apply there, I would rather say that I am an occasional player, sometimes social, because there are times when I am interested in playing thinking like in the case of sui poker and only if when it comes to tournaments PVP, but when they are games like slots, I would be a player of enjoyment, who uses the slots with some money (little) that is necessary for enjoyment.

This may be also as me, Casual Social Gamblers is more suitable for me although I am playing gambling not exactly for fun only. But this is the nearest for me.Gambling with small bet or money, not really significant to be gambling, only sometimes when I want to gamble, not a daily activity routine.
Well, but although this is type of me, Ima also willing to win when gambling to add or boost the fun Grin

I ma sure that everyody will bemore funa nd happier if we can win gambling, right? Grin

But if I am losing some money, it is also not really significant beause it is only small amount to loose.

Yes, I confess what you said is plausible!
I started gambling here on Bitcointalk, before that I had a little bit knowledge in gambling, practically 0

Nowdays I got involved here on this forum and I started to enjoy gambling!
It's nothing too serious, just to pass my time and distract my mind.

It is logical that when it involves money it will be something interesting lol
But I believe that money itself is a consequence of the performance of the person who is gambling

Not in the whole forum but the majority who voted in the poll is more of a casual gambler which means that almost all of us here had the right mindset when it comes to gambling activities. Winning is a good thing to experience but even in that situation, it's highly suggested that we must keep our boundary and try not to cross it so that we won't regret something in the end.
