Topic: When you are not to gamble. - page 22. (Read 6771 times)

Your first point is extremely correct. Desperation can make your situation worse than it originally was. I’ve seen someone gamble with desperation and he said that he’s staking all he has so maybe the return will match the amount that he needed, and he lost it right in front of me. That’s the worst time to gamble, because you’re focused on getting that amount of money and you’re controlled by it.

Indeed, there are more gamblers who cannot stop themselves from gambling, because gambling has a strong attraction too, whether people are rich or poor, in my opinion it is the same, rich or poor does not rule out the possibility that they can be addicted to gambling. They can become addicted to gambling if they cannot control themselves when gambling. It's true what you said, they can't stop when they should, such as when they win and when they lose. I think that when we win or lose we must be able to stop gambling to avoid losses that could cause us misery.
I think those who lose a lot of money know what they are doing, but their mistake is that they expect too much and they chase things that are not certain (winning). If only they knew and realized that winning at gambling cannot be achieved easily, perhaps they would not gamble excessively so that they could lose a lot of money.

On a norm, when a gambler is experiencing these conditions he mentioned above, it is a very critical stage because when you gamble to get money urgently he even loses more instead of gaining and trying to recover lost funds will even lead to more deeper loss which leads to frustration and depression so in order not to experience this things going on a break at that material time is very important for the mental health of that person.

When someone playing gambling too often, he can becomes addicted to gambling. He doesn't realizes what happens to him. If someone have a spare time and choose to playing gambling, he must be carefully and have a limitations because gambling can tempts him easily. He will not stops playing gambling when he lose some money. And he will keeps playing gambling and recovers his lose because he thinks he still have a chance to wins. That's why if someone have a spare time, he must not use his times to playing gambling instead doing the other things so that will not makes him to spends money. We can playing gambling but we must knows when to stops ourselves so we don't have to lose much money. And we must remember to take a break from gambling if we thinks we already lose some money and to avoids more loses.

Addiction to gambling means that you are doing too much gambling and in that case, quitting gambling is not easy. If it was so easy, everyone would have taken a break from gambling for some time and never become addicted. I think it's too late for the gambling addict to follow any gambling golden rules because he is totally in control of his emotions.


You are following this strategy means that you are not addicted to gambling and you can think what is good and bad for you. A gambling addict only focuses on gambling and does not care how much time and money he is losing in gambling.
I agree that if we keep on following these small practices and also manage the risks, we will never become gambling addicts.

The emotions of gamblers can get injured by gambling. Not just about the loss of money the player faces, various factors like continually experiencing anxiety lead gamblers close to depression. The game is designed to lessen the emotional strength of a gambler till he's not capable of controlling how he wagers money. As you said, the emotional pain gradually spreads till the player is unable to understand what he's doing. That's the reason most gambler's emotional control is in the mud. Gambling processes that consist of ongoing losses rather than winning, affect probably the feelings of a gambler. Thereby, causing the player some harm. Which he never expected to happen to him.

The emotional struggle kicks out sadness and anger on the gambler, hence his decisions will be fueled by it. Playing with anxiety won't be fun, and the gambler has a low advantage in making nice decisions. In a battle context, the house handicaps the gambler not to have many chances of winning. The house wouldn't have made as much money as they do if they were seeking donations to help run the business. So, they devised a method that'll make gamblers enjoy the game and spend more time gambling. Thereby, yielding more profits for the casino. Enough to clear their bills and pay workers.

See if any gambler is faced with these three reasons or conditions you mentioned, he will automatically stop himself from gambling. Because all these situations are undesirable and can happen to anyone at any time so if he is an experienced and professional gambler then he must refrain himself from gambling in the above mentioned situations.
However, many times there are many mental disorder gamblers who do not pay attention to the above mentioned conditions and gamble only for the greed of money, so these situations come upon him as more terrible. So those gamblers can't stop themselves in all these situations and can't stop themselves from gambling.

This has been one of the greatest challenge of most gamblers but then it's actually not easy letting go because sometimes you may seem to respect and respond to how you feel much more than how you bare actually supposed to react and so it turns out that you ha e got only but very small control over yourself and habit too aswell especially while gambling, even experienced gamblers suffer this at times.

Controlling yourself when Gambling is actually not an easy thing to do but if you successfully achieve it, then you can say for sure that you have been able to get a good habits that will actually help you gambling and to be able to maintain such you must be able to keep to your routine probably what you have decided to do and what not to do than you could be specific about even the Amount of money you have aswell spent too gambling for the day or probably for the week so its all about you planning and most definitely it will turn out you can gradually maintain a good habit.

Controlling yourself is something one can actually started gradually because habits are things that are very hard to drop but way much easier pick up especially the bad habits that will cause use to even not to be able to properly think of the opportunity the good habits Avils so we be able to put them into consideration and be able to see if it's something we could actually get  controller gradually.

I say just don't gamble when you're supposed to be doing something else.

You have a problem you think gambling could fix? Don't gamble, you got something on your mind that you think gambling could take you out off for the meantime? You check out other stuff first before you go depend on gambling for company. Thing is, there's nothing that gambling could specifically give you, that other sources of enjoyment couldn't. I'd argue that gambling is even more detrimental to you than just thugging the problem out and facing it head-on, if you're having problems that is.

Gambling is something that you can only do for fun if you wanna be successful at it and not get addicted, you can only see gambling as a one-off rendezvous so to speak, something that's there for when you need it, not something that you need to have all the time.

The moment you make gambling a bigger deal than it is, and start particularly looking for lists like this, you're already fucked and you're probably halfway to being addicted to gambling already. By then I suggest you look introspectively and actually quit.

Most of the people gamble due to their greed so if they win in gambling then they are not thankful for that reward but utilise that sum again in gambling which does not guarantee that he will win this time also. If a person accepts both win and loss then he will not gamble regularly but will gamble in limited timing with limited cash.

At first everyone will say that he has control over his gambling abilities but when the loss and greed increase he will lose his control over his feelings and will feel happy after each opportunity that he will find after a loss.

Controlling emotions for a gambler is very hard and gambling acts as a poison that spread slowly and its toxicity increases with the passage of time.

It is not difficult for gamblers who have good motives, those who try to pay off the borrowed money after taking it. Moreover, if the gambler has the ability to repay his loan, then there is no exception. But nowadays no one trusts gambler because they mostly lie or cannot follow through on their words. No one wants to pay such people because no one wants to lose their own hard earned money. I don't trust gambler because the kind of promise they make to me is not possible for anyone else. I personally don't trust Gambler to lend money because they can deny it at any time. However, it is not possible to say that everyone is entitled to the same type of personality. There are many who try to match words with deeds. It is not bad for them to lend.

self control in gambling is a good way to handle our losses cause if we don't have self control then there's a chance that we will loss a lot of money because of the reason that we are too greedy that we can't handle ourselves and bet as we can without knowing that our bankroll is run out of money.  But anyways there are many gamblers who can control themselves and they didn't loss a lot of money in gambling and that's a good example of a responsible gamblers.

That is unfortunately very true. I have seen people lose houses at gambling, they were rich people anyway but the fact that they couldn't stop themselves shows that casinos are so addictive and people fail to stop when they should. I understand losing some money that you decided to gamble with before you start gambling, that way you would know your budget and you will not gamble more than that budget.

But these are not the same things, we are talking about people who end up losing as much as possible, we are talking about a situation that is a bit bigger than that. I believe that most people end up losing a lot of money because they do not know what they are doing and they fail to stop, which causes a lot of trouble later on.

That's right, those who gamble continuously, I think they can't even will themselves, with them like that they will only complicate their economic situation or complicate their lives by only thinking about gambling. With them like that it is clear that they are already addicted and indeed when they are addicted to gambling they will not easily be able to get rid of their gambling habits. In fact, I think it is almost impossible for them to get rid of their gambling habit. Also with them being addicted it will make their finances a mess they can spend a lot of money on gambling.
I once thought when they can spend a lot of money on gambling even in a short time, if the money they allocate to gambling is saved by collecting maybe the results can be seen, with a considerable amount of money. I'm sure you know demo-based slot gambling, my friend did a way that sounds ridiculous but he managed to do it, when he wanted to gamble he put the amount of money he was going to bet into savings and he opened demo-based slot gambling. With the beginning I doubted him, but when a few months he managed to collect the money that was allocated to gambling. And the results are quite a lot even indeed a lot.

Yes, that's a difficult thing for a gambler to have and usually there are always some of them who just claim that they are responsible gamblers, whose confession is to avoid themselves from a lot of criticism, but maybe yes, I think there are some gamblers who are really right. - really have good responsibility in their gambling activities, and they are lucky enough to be able to manage and control their gambling activities so that gambling does not have a too bad impact on their lives.

As you said, one of the benefits is that they will not spend or lose too much money in gambling because they have a good approach and are advised which indirectly this approach can prevent themselves from bad possibilities such as addiction, but on the other hand I don't can fully say that they will completely avoid the possibility of becoming addicted to gambling which is full of temptation, which means that they may experience changes in thought patterns over time which will trap them in an impulsive approach which ultimately leads them to addiction.

Gambling with borrowed money is not a better option than staying without a gambling when with no funds. Excessively engaging in gambling, puts players in this shoe. They're directly and unknowingly doubling their problem gambling. Paying the lender will be a fresh thought in the gambler's mind. The money may not be won before the time elapse for paying back the loan. Dying minutes as this pushes players to make cussed decisions like taking a loan to repay another loan. Moving from one lender to another, seeking for refuge in settling already existing debts, is unacceptable.

Being contented with what we've got is an important gambling strategy, that reduces such annoying decisions. Enough to get the player's family into trouble, and devastation. On this ground, it's best to stop going further with the loans, and stay contented with the no-gambling decision. When there are no extra funds left for gambling. Nothing to gain in gambling with loans. Even if the money gets doubled, paying back can be a delayed, till the money is exhausted again.

Gambling is not worth borrowing money for to place a bet unless the need arises. Let's say, for instance, you have a game that you want to place a bet on; maybe spot games, and the game might start any moment from that time, and you have the money in your bank account.
 
But due to a network issue, you are unable to fund your betting account. In such a situation, one can easily ask who ever is close to them to help fund the account with the same amount they wanted to wager with. Once their bank network is free, you can easily send back the money to the owner, but whereas the money is not even available but you want to borrow and expect to pay back with the game profit, it's one hell of a stupid move to be made by any gambler.

Well, one of the things that I have always said and insisted on is that one has to see the loan as the last option to do in a casino and I think even in life itself, because a loan implies having a lot of responsibility to be able to solve our problem and having to respond on time, because the person who lends the money thinks about helping, so the least that is Expected is that they can be paid on time, given this, lending money to play in a casino is the worst thing you can do. do when it comes to financial needs and decisions, I say that loans are good to take when there is a need or urgency, and for something that you clearly deserve, but when it comes to games, pleasure, it is not smart to do so, that's why I I focus a lot on the comment you make when you talk about loans, since many players do it.

This is arrant nonsense. Gamblers should always write it at the back of their minds that they can't beat the house. And if you can't beat the house, why are you trying to play a superhero? Imagine the gambler that had made the mistake of believing gambling is an avenue to make money and tried it the first day, the second day, the third day, until months without hitting a tangle success through it. Is it not enough reason for him to know it is not easy? Gmabling has never been easy but we enjoy it better if we take it lightly. Good gamblers know the right time to engage it and the right time to halt, this is called responsible gambling and that will be possible only if you tell yourself the truth about it.

The admittance of what gambling really is is the first step to be taken by every gambler to avoid issues, and the moment you realise this without deceiving yourself, you would know that you can only have fun in gambling which is the most realistic part of it. And if you must make money at all, do not allow that desperation of it get to you, if not, it will ruin you. And if anyone is facing financial challenges, I always say gambling is the wrongest door to knock on. The best is to look for financial freedom elsewhere. The person can start with menial jobs until God answers his prayers instead of losing the little he has gambling.

Of course because in any case anything that is done in excess is a bad action that usually leads to disappointing or even bad results, and especially if you apply such excessive actions to gambling which is a probability activity or an activity that has absolutely no certainty whatsoever for the matter of results at the end of the session. Gambling is always about winning and losing which is a much smaller percentage of wins than losses which means that when you treat gambling in an excessive manner then it is certain that the number of losses is much more than the wins which will only happen occasionally and by chance.

As you said that obviously an excessive approach to gambling will only cause a lot of problems especially in terms of finances. On the other hand, I think that the population of responsible gamblers or those who have a correct understanding of gambling is very small, because most of them come because they see the chances of winning in the hope of multiplying the money they bring which makes them ignore other aspects of gambling such as the possibility of risk where losing can never be avoided and will actually happen more often, while responsible gamblers are those who gamble based on a correct and proper understanding which will make them limit their gambling activities because they know that there is a possibility of losing which is potentially greater than winning.
