Topic: When you are not to gamble. - page 14. (Read 3367 times)

Yes, it's true that everyone has experienced a phase where when they need money they have to try gambling to make money so that when they lose they continue to chase their losses and even try to recover their losses, but if they gamble for fun they usually won't be trapped trying to recover their losses. , I recently made that mistake too, namely trying to catch up on my losses because I needed money quickly but it's true that it just wastes my money unnecessarily, sometimes even though I've consistently played responsibly I still often get stuck with that.

But I feel that it depends on the purpose of our gambling because as long as I gamble, so far I just have fun. I never think about trying to recover my losses even when I experience consecutive losses, unless it was my mistake yesterday because I needed money quickly, my gambling became worse. I didn't control myself when I gambled and experienced defeat. In fact, I chased my defeat and tried to recover it. It really won't return all the money I lost. I thought it would work. It turns out my suspicion was correct that gambling is not for making money. but fortunately I realized sooner so as not to lose more, this will be an important lesson for me in the future, I think everyone should also be able to gamble responsibly because it can prevent us from making mistakes.

People will hardly understand this advise because once they start gambling they never become tired of it but wants to continue gambling just because of having earning way. There is no doubt that at start people are gambling just for fun and if they become successful at first bet then their interest increases because they think that their luck is shining which will always help them to win in gambling.

People start to accumulate money from others just to continue gambling and they don't think how they will return that loan amount to the owner but without any worries play again and again just for the hope to win more. They avoid problems but cannot leave gambling but I think we should avoid gambling just to make our life prosperous if we are not successful in gambling.

I have always said that gambling is a very different category of fun than the many other things that people can use to have fun. For example, a person who has a very stressful job and when he comes back from that same very stressful job, he is sad at home, so he always chooses to play a video game on the computer and this act has made that person relax and feel very good to the point of start to laugh and be happy. see that what this person did to relax was come back from work and play, but as he keeps playing video games that don't involve money, so he doesn't feel any pressure during the game and he won't feel sad about losing during the game. At the end of the game he had forgotten about his job problems

but if that person had come back from work with a lot of stress and thinking about all the things that happened at work that made him depressing, and he gets on his phone and goes to play at some online casino, takes $30 and starts playing, during the game this person will be playing thinking that they shouldn't lose that money, and that in itself is an increase in pressure and worry and in the end the person loses everything and when they leave the online casino this person will be more worried than before they started playing at the online casino. In other words, this person didn't have fun, this person didn't forget the stress of their job, on the contrary, after finishing playing, this person had more stress. There are things we need to think about very carefully before we do

When people have financial problems, they should not look for fun that involves spending money, they should stay away from things that are a waste of money and focus on simple things that they can do without spending money. for example, a person with financial problems should not get involved with alcohol, gambling, expensive trips, expensive tours. This person can focus on cheaper trips, such as trips to the beach, trips close to home and places like amusement parks that are cheap, they can go to relatives' houses and friends' houses, they can watch TV at home, you can go to the cinema, you can play video games

Yes and the initial trigger is always about losing control because of a loss that they cannot accept the fact that in the end they are stuck in the cycle of chasing victory to restore something that has been lost, actually this cycle can never be stopped or that means you can never chase something that has been lost if you don't stop it yourself provided that you must be able to accept that you have lost money.

And I believe that the gamblers who end up stuck in this cycle are those who have the goal of chasing wins or earning while on the other hand gambling is not a place that can provide you with consistent income because there is no element of consistency in terms of winning, so it is a fact that all wins that are in gambling will only occur by "chance" and anyone will never know whether they will win or lose at the end of the session unless they have ended their gambling session. So I hope you change your mindset and goal of earning in gambling from now on, it's all for your own good in the long run.

That is something that always need to be on the back of our minds, the truth is that even those that know that chasing their losses can be a dangerous thing can fall into this behavior if they are not careful, since losing control of our emotions can happen to anyone, even to professionals, and even a single mistake like that can be enough to carry you a great deal of trouble, and if this happens frequently then this could even ruin a person.

That would be fun if you really don't have the desire to get a big prize or jackpot. That's a bonus and part of the game. So thinking that gambling is a game will prevent you from using gambling as one of your sources of income. It is wrong logic to think that gambling will give someone extra money. In gambling you have the opportunity to win and lose. So how is it possible to think about earning money when needed from gambling? I think if you are a responsible person, of course you can borrow from your friends, instead of the bank. That's much better than thinking that with $10 you will get $50 from the casino.

Want to chases losses is a serious problem faced by gamblers. I found various articles where gamblers were trapped in negative things, especially fraud and other crimes, because they wanted to win after losing in gambling. It's a sad fact, even professionals may experience situations like this, although not as often as newbies. However, this has been mentioned in this forum, that we should never try to chase losses. Let you have lost due to gambling losses, just disappear. Because that is the risk of gambling. unfortunatelly, when we are active in one session, we forget this advice.

This is good mate and we must have this kind of mindset also if we will win in that specific day and stop then make sure we will not go back on playing in that the same day cause our Luck will leave I assure. Cause once we will win on that specific day then gamble again there's a chance that we will loss and all our winning will go back to the casino. And also I will strongly agree with this that once we are chasing our losses then we will loss more and more and it will lead us regret bin the future so it's better to control ourselves.

When I was trading forex, I do enter market when I have urgent need for money but I never won. I believe this will also be applicable in gambling.

Chasing losses or chasing wins as it might be called is a proven way to lose money in gambling. It will be looking like the next step will be a win while it is more depth of losses.


Whenever you are under pressure, you are definitely not gonna make good decisions. That is for sure

I agree with you, this misunderstanding makes them trapped in a cycle of addiction which makes them experience many losses, especially financially. with many cases of people experiencing big losses because they misunderstand gambling, when their finances are unstable, they force themselves to gamble using the amount of money they have left and hope that the money they bet can produce profitable wins that can help their finances. but the reality is not like that, of course the host will not let anyone win easily, the host also doesn't care about the situation that happens to the gambler, even if they go crazy, it's none of the host's business.

by continuing to gamble because they want to recover their losses it will only be an impulsive action where they will not care about the losses that occur, they only think about gambling and multiplying their money, moreover if they respond wrongly to gambling and they continue to gamble it will actually make them even more mentally depressed which it could possibly make them mentally ill. I agree with you, it's better to stop than to continue gambling with the wrong understanding, because that will only make things worse.

I can't say whether I played for fun, because every time I gambled at that time, I couldn't control myself. So I often make several deposits in 1 session. LOL  .
Now I no longer gamble for entertainment reasons or anything else. However, returning to the concept of gambling for the main job, slots may not be the right type of gambling. Maybe, playing cards or sports betting is still possible if someone have more money and control to gamble every day. Of course the risks is higher than crypto on bearish phase, Once again, this can only be achieved if someone can gamble with good control and have a lot of money to gamble everyday and can afford any loss.

Yes, just having fun would be better, but if it is balanced with good self-control to perfect it, if someone enters the gambling area just to have fun but is not equipped with good self-control then the results will be the same. the same thing, that is, it can become a habit. or you could become addicted. and good self-control will form a good character in controlling emotions when in a casino so that it is likely that gamblers will carry out their gambling activities with discipline and caution.

The best way to gamble is just for fun so that when you lose, it won't make you depressed by losing the money you have because, when you enter a gambling place, you should already be aware of such risks, so if you enter a gambling place, you end up feeling depressed. very high because you have lost a lot of money, so what you did was wrong, because in a gambling place you have to be able to control your emotions well so you don't spend too much money and end up making yourself feel depressed.

Two things that leads to addiction while gambling;
1> If you made first winning ( At this point it seems like someone are being initiated into taste of gambling and at all time they would want to gamble to increase their winning.)
2> Total lost ( As a gambler or someone who has been gambling for long and you calculated your lost and profits if they think their lost is more than their profits they will keep gambling to make sure they restore some of their winning without knowing they are gradually becoming addicted to gambling.)
SUM; Anyone who manage these two can actually skip gambling addiction.

For some people, gambling is their main job. For those of us who don't have the ability to manage every loss/win, it's best to gamble just for fun, and set gambling limits. I'm sure that I will never be able to make gambling as my main job. Considering that my emotions is not stable, I don't want to get caught up in negativity anymore. Just a 3 years ago, I experienced this, and I don't want it to happen again. However, for those who have good management, I don't think it's a problem for them to make gambling as their main job. I am sure they are ready to take all the risks by making gambling as a job, not entertainment for fun.

I agree with you. Gambling requires a stable mindset. When a gambler`s mind is shattered, it becomes difficult to make sound judgments and good predictions. Show me a gambler gambling when he is not in his right frame of mind and I will show you a gambler who will incur more losses because such a gambler will make poor decision-making which will result in unfavorable consequences.

I need to sound so realistic here. Is it possible for a gambler not to gamble when he needs money? Even though it is the ideal thing to do, it is nearly impossible. I understand that gambling involves so much risk and so gambling when you are in dire of money will make you lose the little you have because you will be gambling under pressure and pressure gambling creates more problems than it solves. It is essential to strike a balance between taking risks and exercising caution when it comes to gambling for financial gain.

People that gamble because they need money are misunderstanding what gambling is, and it is such people that will become victim to addiction and great losses. This is because they will lose and when they lose, they will not quit, but rather continue chasing their losses that can never be recovered. They will borrow to gamble, and when they are with other people's money they will gamble with it, because their mindset is gambling to double their funds.

There is no point gambling when you are under pressure, be ause you would not be able to bring out the best result s due to unstable mind. Also If you are frustrated due to your loss, it is better that you just quit the game instead of to continue gambling so that you can save yourself from more losses. Gamble in a stable mental state

Gambling should be for fun; it is not right to consider gambling a job. Instead of getting a fixed income from gambling that they expect to happen, they will spend even
more because gamblers are usually losers.

That's why we must be responsible for every decision we make. It's really a big mistake to think of or consider gambling as a job, because even an employee's job is not a game.

👉👉when you are in need of money urgently

This is the time that you should really be stopping yourself on trying out to play on gambling on the time that you are really that needing up some money.
Making gambling as your main source of income or money making? You are really just that taking up a suicide decision on which this is something
that we must avoid as much as we could.

Gamble for fun and if you are on such conditions like being stressed, or hurry in needing money then this is the best time to skip out.
You are playing in desperate conditions and not for leisure and with this then this is actually the moments on where you are really that
too emotional which would really be resulting on such being impulsive.

It is too much to say that one player is proud to say that they can outwit and beat the croupiers or some sites because after all it is an impossible situation, unless there are some conditions such as negligence due to human error or technical errors in the system itself and the most possible is that the victory is given to make them seem as if they can beat the gambling site or casino.

We must understand one thing in this case because gambling is based on luck and actually on the one hand our luck is regulated by the bookmakers because there is no way they create a business to enrich their customers in the end so it is certain that when the site is created, the business is used to enrich those behind the scenes of casinos and gambling sites so that no one can fool them because of temporary wins considering that it is one of the tricks to make customers feel they are in a favorable situation and spend more money on the sites they have.
