$20 every week is my budget and I do not go over that amount most weeks. There have been times where I have gone above it but this is rare and has only happened when there are big events on like the Euros a couple of weeks ago. I think it is healthy to set a budget and only go above it sometimes when there are special events on.
This is the way it should be done, having very clear limits about when and how much to gamble and remaining the majority of the time below those levels is the healthiest way to gamble, many people do not like this because they think it interferes with their fun as they cannot any longer do whatever they want and they feel they are missing some of the fun they got with their gambling without those limits, but people like that should use a budget as that kind of thinking could easily lead them to become addicted to gambling.

I don't actually have a betting budget. I know it's surprising but it's true, I just based it on my mood for example in sports betting if there are some good events of course I increase my budget to it and if there's something like football competition or wagering competition I increase my budget to that but that varies it's around $1000 or more.
Not sure about $1k, as gamblers who don't have the budget to gamble will at least only be playing with money ready to lose which means it's not a huge amount. A gambler who has a regular or calculated budget, it is easy for him to prepare a large budget for gambling. But for players who only gamble occasionally in my opinion, I'm not sure that such a gambler will spend a lot of money just to gamble for a moment.Every certain competition will of course have a budget that already knows how it should be spent.
I am sure managing the finances will give us a chance to know how much our free money is and how we will use that money. If we have free money that we do not use for anything, we can use it to gamble, but of course, we need to limit playing gambling. Otherwise, we will use more and more money and we will lose it in the gambling games. If we can limit our money to gamble, we do not disturb the other money that we already set it every month.
Limitation is always a key, it will guide you not to lose more and it will also allow you to win over the house, if you have good limits with your gambling activities either ways, win or lose just know when to stop and you are good to go.
Taking some portions from your budget and allow yourself to be entertained, but always know when to quit that's your advantage dealing with this activity.
Value your money and set only the amount that you are capable to let go.

Waoo! This is my first time of hearing that some people do have budget set aside for gambling on a monthly basis. This is a very nice one but I don't have a budget for gambling maybe I will start now since I have making little money out of my gambling this days.
I'm also surprised that you don't have a budget for gambling. I think you don't really manage your expenses every monthit's a good thing if you want to try to manage your finances while gambling so you can know how much your monthly expenses are
One of the keys to not losing in gambling is being able to manage and control finances

Not just in gambling; everywhere be must keep track of how much we are spending and how much we are earning for that we could have control over our economy. Moreover, maintaining expense details will definitely help to find out what are the expenses are not necessary so that we could have better saving for securing our future.One of the keys to not losing in gambling is being able to manage and control finances
I don't think so. Managing your finances will help you to have less spending for your gambling but that definitely got nothing to do with your losses in gambling. But at the same time, if you are less spending for gambling then there will be the better chances for less losses in the end.

It depends if I don't have expenses for the current month, I increase my gambling budget and sometimes I get my expenses from my betting budget if I managed to win. This is really a nice discussion since trying to budget your fund in gambling is one of the really important things since it will let you be a responsible gambler.
Gambling winnings are a bonus.
It is logical to spend them on something unusual, and not just to finance running costs. Make your dream come true.
For example, flying in a hot air balloon, scuba diving, traveling, going to an expensive restaurant.
This will allow you to organize an interesting Life Style. At the same time, it will not give you the opportunity to develop gambling addiction. In addition to gambling, an interesting Life Style awaits you.
Focusing on Life Style will save you a lot of trouble.
Your suggestion seemed expensive, but of course it will help if you have the budget, but unfortunately, most people who are addicted in gambling are those who does not have a financial freedom, they got addicted for trying to win big money as they think it's an opportunity to change their lives to improve financially in just a short period of time.
We do not need to adopt expensive life styles to get ourselves free from gambling. You can visit to parks or have candle light dinner are enough to keep you from gambling addiction. Its in our mind will, that we want to treat gambling as a fun activity or make it a deadly hobby which may lead towards our poverty. A very useful advice would be not to make gambling the primary source of income.
I think people always agree with themselves in the beginning to set a limit for gambling. But what do you do when you want to go over that limit, since you have lost your bet? Then the problems often start that can no longer be foreseen.
ya.ya.yo!

There have been actually doing that if you read a few posts back then. They are gambling with a budget on a monthly basis and others do that as long as they've got spare money.This is a very nice one but I don't have a budget for gambling maybe I will start now since I have making little money out of my gambling this days.
If you want to gamble and you don't have a budget yet, might better allocate and wait for your money to come. 
3% or 5% means you truly manage your gambling budget since degen gamblers don't care after one point how much they spend to keep chasing losses. Personally, I prefer to do it around 10% of the total passive income I get and I never mix the main income source with gambling since gambling addiction can have a huge effect on it. Long story short, just gamble for fun and for fun having a spare extra few hundred dollars is enough, IMO.
Some people prefer to gamble half the salary and they keep believing recovering the loss is possible in a single session. Having decent money management requires to recover the losses of previous dead sessions slowly, for example, I prefer to recover the losses in two weeks rather than doing all in few days. Rushing to recover the loss in short timeframe will make losses double, so gambler are supposed to make a bigger deposits which can be a another loss for a day.

Budgeting gambling capital in my opinion is very important and to avoid you losing a lot of money, but all of that must be supported with high discipline and consistency because it is not easy.when you bet within the budget for some time you set and when you lose and your budget runs out you don't add any more.
And if you have several wins, you can use the winnings for other purposes or to prepare for the next budget capital and you stay consistent and play with the budget that has been prepared until the time limit runs out.
This is something that you should stop right away when you are still on midway because if the problem would even becomes worst then it would really be a regretable thing that would happen into your life.
If you dont like to experience it then better be mindful towards your actions and be sensible on any situation.

That is the only way prevention that we can do to prevent the big loss. They have different monthly budgets, and I am sure they will not try to break the budget because if they do that, it can lead them to more losses. You can hope to make little money from your gambling, but I suggest you do not try hard to make money from gambling because the result will not always be what you expected. Maybe you can limit or set your budget by playing gambling so you do not feel curious about winning.As a gambler, we should be honest with ourselves as that's the only way to know our real capacity, whether we are just for fun or for serious business.

In fact, the main paradox of gambling addicts is that even if they win a large amount of money, they still continue to gamble (usually up to a complete loss) instead of actually changing their lives. I have heard many such stories, plus stories where a gambler who won a lot of money spent all of them on entertainment. But I don't remember a single one when the lucky one would open a business or do something serious.

Fixed betting budgets are a great thing. It enables you to bet within your means and don't risk money that you can't afford to lose, which is perhaps one of the most important skills of a successful bettor. The odds will sometimes not go in your favor and you feel as if you're simply losing wager after wager. This leads many people to increase their stakes to try to recover their losses when their luck returns. Unfortunately, this rarely works.

Which would really be a wasteful act and would definitely result into problems later on when you do spend much above into your budget.You shouldnt really be having that kind of behavior because if you dont like to experience problem then you should be mindful about your spending.
Budget should be only sufficient on your leisure needs because if you do make it as a source of income then you would likely to be spending more on the amount that you had allocated.
In result? You would really be get addicted at the same time you would really be having some financial problems later on.
Mismanaged of your funds will surely harm you in the long run, you should always stay with your allocated budget and never to exceed with it, responsible gambling saves you from getting addicted.
If you set a certain amount with your gambling leisure best to keep it that way, please your desire but control your emotions.
When you're done using your budget then it's also time for you to quit, take the enjoyment and experienced it will give you good vibes not those regrets when you overspend your money, amount that you are not willing to let go.
