Topic: While placing bet what comes your mind - page 15. (Read 1962 times)

I think such feeling or thought is just as normal as it can be, it is what every gambler feel or think from time to time, I said "from time to time" because this not a feeling or thought that comes to a gamblers mind all the time, like myself, i do have such feelings but not all the time, I usually have such feelings or thought when placing bets on some games I am most convinced somehow, that I would win, so, when placing bets on such games, after seeing the amount i could possibly win, I usually get that feeling or thought that that amount is too small, why don't I increase the bet amount, so as for the potential win amount to as well get higher.

There are times I've actually listened and acted on such thoughts, and at the end of the day, I lost all the money, and I blamed myself for not going with the amount i initially wanted to bet with.
And again as well, on the other hand, there are also times I end up winning, and I still say to myself, had I known, I would have increased the bet amount even much more higher  , a true confirmation that humans can never be satisfied.

I will agree to this because most newbies gamblers prefer to see gambling as a way of making money, it is the losses they saw that makes them to later change but some will continue and that will make them to become an addicted gambler that is wasting money on something that is not giving them benefits no more. Gambling should be seen as an entertainment and it should not go beyond that, gambling is not a means of making money.  When I start to gamble, this affected me as I want to use it to make money. I lost so much until I stop this bad mentality of gambling can make me rich.

That's how gambling is, and the gambler, as much as they want and as much as they let their minds take over, they will keep on betting until there is no one left. The thing is, how can you control yourself? Maybe for first-timers or beginners in trading, they will keep on betting or, at worst, raise the wager that could lead them to addiction. Why addiction? As long as the gambler loses, they will keep on betting until they recover what they have lost, but the reality is that it will never come because as long as you keep on chasing the losses, they will keep on adding, leading to, in the worst case, losing all money or assets. The mind of the people is also their enemy; there will be voices that urge you to do things that are beyond your limits, and if you can't control them, then it's your own fault; you are your own responsibility.

For most gamblers, after placing a bet, the first thing that comes to their mind is that they can achieve a sizable win. Because after placing a bet, sometimes the hope arises that by placing a bet we can multiply our money many times over. And this is quite normal and normal. However, when we are unable to control these feelings, expectations that are too high sometimes cause us to become out of control when betting or gambling.

And it's true, when we expect too much or have too high hopes for gambling. Because this can lead to disappointment and greater financial risks, which we may regret later. So it would be better if we viewed gambling only as a form of entertainment, not as a way to gain wealth. Because expectations that are too high can encourage irrational betting decisions. So it is important for us to have a realistic mindset and understand that gambling always involves an element of luck.

I think I am going to say that I have two most popular thoughts that come to my mind when I am placing a bet. First one is how I am going to spend money I would won. I think everyone have such though and plan or dream how money are going to be spend after withdrawal. Second though is rather controversial, I start planning my next bet. "If I win, then I would make my next bet as...". This is close to OP said he was thinking about. I doubt that gamblers have different thoughts. All of them are more or less the same.

Right? Use a small amount that won't dent your wallet. Once you start chasing losses or upping the stakes, that's when it gets tricky. Keeping it light and within budget makes the whole gambling scene way more enjoyable without the financial stress.

I say this thought only comes into the gambler's mind if they have fantasized about it before. When they were alone  and not gambling. They must have had this type of conversation where they said, what if I increased by bet size, will I win bigger than I used to win? This thought doesn't spring up from no where. It is always premeditated.

Of course yes. But if you have a plan and maintain discipline these thoughts would hardly last a second. Best way to overcome these thoughts is to not gamble regularly. Reduce the days and hours spent gambling. Be active in other activities outside of gambling. Be opened about your gambling with trusted friends. They are majorly the ones would can talk you out of giving in to such thoughts and gambling irresponsibly.

That's why it's important to control yourself when gambling and manage your mindset correctly, every gambler feels the same thing and often feels like pressure inside of us trying to force ourselves to play beyond the limits of our abilities, that's why it's important for us to limit each gambling budget and be consistent so that Don't exceed your budget limit when gambling, every thought and feeling about increasing your bets should be avoided so you don't get addicted to gambling.

I often feel that feeling where I sometimes feel bored with the game and want to finish the game with higher stakes to immediately spend my budget money, but I don't do it because I know it won't make my feeling of boredom go away because I will just feel like never satisfied to continue betting, after all, by following our feelings within ourselves it will only mislead us from playing responsibly. Gambling must be wise because that way it remains in good control.

But the most important thing is to stand on our mindset, sometimes if our mindset is not right then we will think about unnecessary things by betting high recklessly, our mindset must be like rich people where gambling should be for fun so there are no thoughts. to be too eager to increase the bet and want to win gambling quickly. the best way is to ignore what forces ourselves to win big. because it all started from there.

That is how gambling is, as someone is gambling, a thought like this will come to the person's mind. The person will want to increase the money to gamble. Infact, this is one of the main reasons gamblers easy lose money while gambling.

We have always say that gamblers should use little amount of money to gamble and they should not go beyond their gambling budget which should be a very small amount of money to what they re earning.

Yesterday was trying to place bet and during the process something in me keeps telling me to increase your wager do you know if you would hit something you never won before.. I was like is this how other people are being controlled by gambling or is it how it works? I said, no wonder some people gamble and finishes their allocation for the week or month. This can even lead someone to also go borrow if this feeling is not killed and stop, you can also see that this attributes in gambling addiction.

However, have you had this feeling while gambling before be it offline casino and online casinos?
