Topic: When you are not to gamble. - page 16. (Read 6771 times)

what you suggested above is correct, It's better, if we play just for fun, at least we play freely without burdens and when they lose they don't mind it too much, and are ready to lose what they bet on. If a person hopes too much to get positive results from a gambling game, this is the person's mistake. This makes every gambler continue to play there and makes the gambler even more addicted to getting what they want.

But it is very difficult especially for people who have a very large winning experience, their greed is much greater until their brains work very irrationally about gambling.

Maybe those of us who can talk like now have gone through a difficult time with gambling where addiction and not wanting to stop playing causes a financial mess that in the end we realize that gambling should only be based on fun, no other goals, then there will not be any burden when gambling, such as frustration because they want to win and what happens is only defeat and defeat.

But it becomes very interesting when we are feeling addicted and then that day stop gambling for up to a month, you will find more peace.

Points mentioned in OP are very true and I would like to add that people shouldn't gamble when they are sad or angry.
Sometimes people become sad or angry and keep betting without any control over themselves.
Besides that, I believe people should only gamble when they are in a good mood thus having more consciousness on gambling.

          -   Then I can just add to what you said, mate. I hope that other gamblers too, when they lose a large amount or no matter how much they lose,  will forget about it. They should not think that the next time they play gambling they will think that they should regain what they lost in the past.

Instead, it should be a new phase of their gambling if they ever return to the casino to play; that's the only mindset they should have so that it doesn't get worse in the end, which can affect their personal behavior later.

This is true, but I noticed that the promoters of casinos and betting platforms understand this very well too. They try to make sure that the gambler, when trying to forget about the casino, constantly remembers it anyway. See what an example I have from my life that happened yesterday: I was watching memes in an entertainment app, and there was a mobile advertisement for a certain casino. I turned on YouTube, but there was an advertisement for this casino in one of the broadcasts.
Then I went outside, and there was a car with an advertisement for the same casino.

In general, the platforms responsible for gambling are trying very hard to remind themselves from everywhere.

That's why you must take care of your minds not to poisoned the temptation from gambling because that can makes you difficult to stops yourself from playing gambling. Many people are lost their minds after they gets fun from gambling and comes back to the casino to playing the other gambling games. They don't remember that they don't have to keeps playing gambling many times, especially if they have many activities in their daily life.

They must thinks that gambling can gives many problems to them if they can't take care their minds. When you are not gambling, you must avoids thinks about gambling and keeps yourself busy with many activities so your minds can focus with other things you can do. That will prevents you from wanting to playing gambling so you will not spends money to that activity and only do your daily activities. You have time to playing gambling so you don't have to playing gambling too often to savings your money.

The most basic thing when gambling is self-control not to get too far into the game, this is a simple thing but it will be difficult for a gambler to do when at the table, too engrossed in gambling itself will break the rhythm of the game, there are times when we have to stop for a moment and calm our minds so as not to get emotional in the game, professional gamblers will bet at the right time according to their feelings. And based on their gambling experience, each professional gambler has their own strategies and ways to minimize losses when betting, although luck is the basis of the gamblers' victory, this is what some stupid gamblers should do to avoid bad things that will happen to them in the future.
In general, casinos target such people who are easily tempted by big prizes and people who have difficulty controlling their emotions, so these people are addicted to gambling and casinos benefit from it.

It is too late for gamblers to reduce gambling activities when they have gone too far into the game, and have damaged their finances, this will affect their minds and look for ways to restore their capital by gambling again. Reducing gambling activities should be done at the beginning of the game when gamblers start gambling activities, we must first know what are the negative and positive effects of gambling when we start doing it, in order to avoid the disease of addiction too deep should be as early as possible know this,

I agree specially with your last statement that gambling shouldnt add to anyone's burden, and to add, I did say that gambling is supposed to be a burden lifter.

What you said in the first part of your comment is not exactly correct in my own point of view, personally, I've always viewed or seen gambling as one of the ways one can relieve him or herself from stress, can be what ever type of stress, maybe stress from work or business place, I mostly gamble to ease myself some burden and keep myself away from over thinking, gambling is a good way to pass time most especially in the evening when one has nothing to do, I usually just sit on my couch and Gamble into the night, having fun.

But then, the truth is that not very many gamblers treat gambling that same way, some are often gambling for money, and this totally removes all the fun, gambling is best enjoyed when winning money isnt a priority.

Emotions and moods are always adjusted in the most appropriate way right from the start but the transition again always happens too quickly based on the circumstances that are happening at that time. Typically stories of unexpected losses, joyful inspiration are deprived by this factor and that is the story behind the preparation, it's a way of suddenly changing emotions and once integrated into the story, the final development is the scene we need to experience. Unfortunately, a noble mind was poisoned by cruelty and fearfully transformed by gambling

Absolutely right. But I would advise to look for other hobbies, or if someone have skills for something outside of gambling, then take up this case. Gambling is not the best hobby.
After all, for example, drawing or watching movies cannot cause severe addiction. I think the author has listed the right reasons for someone becoming addicted to gambling. But the reasons for gambling becoming a problem do not end at the above points.
In general, it is better to try to develop your skills given by nature and try to succeed in them. And anyone can always go back to gambling, it don't disappear anywhere.

True, it is a good plan of approach to gambling, one of the reasons is because gambling is a risk-taking activity where if you make the wrong decision such as when you are having personal problems that make your brain and mind not working properly then it is very likely for you to take aggressive actions and decisions. And also added in gambling a lot of things that look tempting that can tempt us unconsciously, which when it turns out at the end of the session we lose then it will be very possible for us to vent emotions, especially when our state of mind is not calm due to other problems that we experience.

On the other hand, it is also very possible for someone who gambles when their mood and mind are not calm to end up allocating an amount of money that they cannot afford, or an amount that exceeds their limits which can make them experience a worse situation and mood. So the bottom line is that there is nothing wrong with gambling as long as you can gamble at the right time and under the right circumstances, especially when your mood and mind are calm.

professional gamblers of course they know when they have to bet, I once saw in an offline casino shop someone who was silently watching the process of betting on a ball being rolled, I watched the game and paid attention to that person, until when he placed a bet with a large enough amount he immediately won, and maybe this is what a professional gambler can say, but I don't think that means he can always win, because even his winnings were due to luck being on his side so he placed a bet at the right time. For casinos, of course they like people who are not good at controlling themselves, including their emotions, because with players like that, the casino will make a profit.

That's true, indeed those who reduce their gambling activities are of course because they are aware of the bad impacts of gambling. but it's good when they realize it because they shouldn't be trapped forever in gambling which is detrimental to their lives. although there is a possibility that they will return to gambling, perhaps they already have set limits not to gamble excessively. When you don't gamble, of course your finances won't be too messy, because many of them gamble to the point where their finances become a mess, but in fact, when we can't gamble well, it can affect our financial situation.

I also often think about the players who were able to win and leave, there are very few of them and I’m sure that they sometimes think about trying to do it again, because such a positive experience will be remembered for the rest of their lives. If something bad happens in their life, it can unsettle them and they want to fill these emotions with positivity and it is precisely such events that can lead them there again. Probably many of them experience an internal struggle throughout their lives not to go there again.

As for me, I can say with confidence that I don’t have a great craving for games and winning due to the fact that I don’t play often, gradually, and the main thing is that I already experienced a lot in gambling when I was young, now I want more peace of mind and absence of non-standard situations both in games and in life. I understand that these are games of my mind and I have to be stronger than my emotions, I have been able to do this easily for many years, thank you for asking me such a question.

Your point of view is absolutely correct, as a gambler it is better to gamble when you are in good mood and not bothered about other things, gambling shouldn't be done with anxiety or even over excitement in other not to incur unexpected loss.
As you said, gambling should done without greed, it is advisable to gamble with what you can let go if you eventually become unlucky, most gambler forget the warning of casinos that said gamble responsibly, although they may not have explained it in details but it means gamble with caution, don't be excessively involved with what you can forfeit, for me I just think that gambling shouldnt add to anyones burden rather it should be an activity that people should engage with smallest amount of money to avoid regret.

This is the reason most  times its adviced we should gamble for fun because that way you are not goin to get too emotional about your stakes and will not have to get too attached to the game such that you don't find it easy or you get heavily hit whenever it is you loose your money to the casino but then its always better you are gambling without emotions so you don't have to struggle with the outcome knowing how well it could turn out, because you have got an open mind to whatever it is you are doing as a gambler. trying to see gambling as a place where you are going to get rich quick will only expose you to addiction and in the long run disappointments because gambling has always been originally for fun and rewarding for having fun and not intended to be a way of getting rich quick or possibly getting to make money as a job opportunity.

Nice to see you made it quite early out of addiction. Noticed that gamblers are actually addictive when they wager a huge amount of money. As a friend analyzed today, he mentioned that gambling offers wins to players waiting on behalf of the huge amount they'll wager soonest. People are greedy and would want to double their money. Notwithstanding, the risks involved.

Bypassing such a difficult time is required of people who are still putting on such a heavy tight show, tough to remove. The best of the advice from me, is not to gamble when we are desperately in need for money. That's the worst moment for gamblers to take part in the game. They may end up feeling eagger to win the money. Such feeling actually affects the player's control due to the lacking relaxational spirit in the player.

Well atleast you realize yourself and that's the most important thing of all because they are so many out there that are still facing the struggles of gambling with the intention of getting Positive results always. This is simply what breaks you down because your whole mentality would be placed on how can I get the fast and quickest possible money from gambling where as you are just gonna waste time and make get losses even the more.

Pro come in with a game plan, not to put on a show, but to maximize their edge. They know when to double down, when to walk away – that's the difference between the pros and the suckers

Casinos love emotional gamblers. Those are the guys chasing losses, throwing good money after bad, hoping for that one big score. It's like a drug, man. Casinos are dealers, and they're pushing dopamine. The house edge isn't just math, it's psychology

People change their gambling habits for a reason. If someone cuts back, it's not because they're bored, it's because they're waking up. They're realizing the toll it takes on their life, their relationships. It's about taking back control, man. Every time they don't place a bet, they're flipping the bird to the casino, to the chaos. They're making a choice

I think the enemy of the casino is a really wise gambler, where they bet with a small amount of capital but when he gets a win without further ado without thinking he immediately cashes in the winnings, maybe this is the enemy of their casino I think gamblers are like this smart with everything, with the budget at stake and with the actions he takes too. However, with players who are not intelligent in gambling, they easily get emotional so that their desire to continue gambling is an advantage for the casino even though the casino does not show directly what the player's desires are, but players who are easily tempted by the lure of winning seem to be what the casino wants, because with they really want to win, of course they will continue to gamble and this is where the casino profits are obtained.

Do you feel the same way by reducing the amount of gambling you do, that you are no longer interested or obsessed with winning so badly?
Or is there something else that makes the amount of gambling you do change? whatever it is, but if it gets better here and there then that's good. because it is not a good thing if we continue to gamble with the desire to win, because it can drain our finances consciously or unconsciously.

We are both in the same shoes, I could remember when I was an addict, I thought that gambling can make win a huge amount of money buy i was wrong and run ay big losses regularly because I am always gambling all the time chasing my losses.

It was after i learnt a hard lesson that i realized that i have the wrong mindset towards gambling and i started hambling for fun with a little amount of money and this was how I bever gambled for profits anymore.
