Bitcoin Forum

When I had meet my friends last Sunday,We had discussed about this topic.We are friends based on our gambling interest and all of us are the gamblers.I had already mentioned about my friend who loss 2k in this below thread also take part in our meeting.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493038.0

He keep on playing the gambling with some loans from our friends circle to manage the 2000 dollars previous loss.But the result is both positive and negative based on his luck.One of my gambling friend said this “Gambling losses are the traps for the gamblers to get into gambling again.”He added when the gambling loss was increases,most of us will do the gambling to recover the old loss.Because no one earning money without work,So our wish will be to balance the old losses in the gambling site.Share your opinion on this.

With my experience,I had use to win and loss based on the time I am playing the game.If I had the gambling at the sleeping mood,most of the time.I had loss the capital money in the gambling site.The winning also depends upon the gambling experience,many gamblers use to play the game based on the game experience.But some gamblers think the gambling was based on the luck,So they only do the random betting in the gambling site.The reason for most of the loss in the gambling sites are repeating the same algorithm in the gambling site after the gambling site change their algorithm to the game.

Did you guys trust on gambling algorithms or do the random betting in the gambling site to check the current luck in the gambling sites…

Do not forget that casinos have house edge which is still the reason if they have higher customers, they will make more money because gamblers are losing while gambling than making money. This is what we all know and we do not consider it as manipulation. I only just gamble for fun because I can not trust any gambling site because everything they set is to make money for them from customers.

Since gambling sites and casinos are out there for business, they will always make sure that the system is programmed in a way that it will be in their favor most of times, amd this is why the say of the house hedge always win , because real gamblers knows this, that no matter how you think that you are smart in gambling, you will always run at loss, and they gamble for fun.

If you chase your old losses thinking that you will recover them, that is where the problem starts from because you will only have more losses and if you continue, addiction will the next.

I agree with the statement, "Gambling losses are the traps for the gamblers to get into gambling again." A gambler's loss will make him want to recover his previous losses, which is a trap for him because he can lose more money. The more often we gamble, the more we will lose money, and we will still have difficulty winning some money from gambling. That is why we really have to be able to control ourselves well when gambling. And if we lose, we should just accept the loss and not think about recovering from it. If we gamble another day, we don't need to think about our previous losses because that will disturb our mood when playing gambling. We might have the desire to recover our previous losses rather than enjoy the gambling game.

Losses aren't traps because anyone can know gambling will make them lose if they check and understand about house edge.

If people think losses are traps that make people to gamble more, it's either the gamblers are careless or stupid enough to not understand house edge. So, if you see a gambler that you think like an addict, you can ask him what's house edge and how do it's work.

That is not a trap, but your friend cannot accept the losses and still believes that it is impossible for someone to lose again and again in gambling.
And believe me, your friend will forget this “trap” thing after he wins something.
Then when he loses again, he will say that the gambling winnings are a trap for the gamblers to gamble again.


What you mentioned above is that you are subconsciously looking for reasons and justifications to gamble again when there are doubts due to previous losses.
Because by believing that you lost because you were cheated by a certain casino = the stronger your belief that you will definitely win if you can find a fair casino.

I do not trust gambling algorithms all the time. If I am playing in a new casino, without any reputation built yet. If I am playing in a very reputable casino, that I have played in over again I'll have some trust in their algorithm. But truth be told, the algorithm is not for all games. On some slot provides the luck I have are more than the luck I have in some other type of slot games. Some times it is so random, while at other times, I don't believe it is.

Betting strategies doesn't guaranteed someone winning at maximum 100 percent rather it's something that gets you close to Wining most time we lose at the point of trying to adopt to another betting strategies if the old style doesn't work better. People fails to understand that gambling is not about how professional they are but on lucky they could be that gives people winning.
When professionalism is included then losing is inevitable, most times one must not always trying to break the house but could space maybe after some while they can visit back the casino to gamble with this they are reducing and maintain a good gambling practice than keep revenge gambling try to recover what they had already lost.

No, although the algorithm method solves some problems in gambling losses, but I am not sure of the instructions and actions they provide, I am not sure the gambling site will be responsible for all of that, Even though it looks neat and convincing, gambling is gambling, failure and victory cannot be separated from a person's luck in carrying out a strategy or choosing the type of game.

Talking about traps for newcomers, I don't know about that, but I'm sure 100% of gambling sites every type of game there is an operator who controls all of it, they can set the direction of the game, that's what I know.

I am convinced that every casino has its own algorithms, and therefore it is better to avoid playing in untested establishments. The reliability and safety of the gaming platform is the main thing. I am willing to pay a large commission just to choose a casino with an impeccable reputation, for example Roobet.

Ultimately, it is important that the game is fair and reliable, and not just profitable.

I don't see any issue with this or if it is an issue. If you observe that a casino had something with their algorithms then you can take a break and master what you are gambling again. This is the reason it is advised to gamble what you can risk. You don't have to keep playing with the pace that you are playing if you have some trust issue or doubt with the system you are gambling on. There has to be transparent system before you continue. Moreover, always remember casinos have edge against you, meaning that they are likely to win more while you are likely to lose more. So if you are losing then you should take your decision not to continue for a moment.

I usually jump from one game to another.
My simple strategy is spend $2 in one slot game then jump to another whatever happens. Whether I lose or win, I will just spend that amount and move on to another. That's 20 rounds considering I am just betting for $0.1 per round.
If nothing works out, I take my rest and shift my focus on sports betting again. Place my bets on my picked teams and other kind of bets like parlays and over and under and then just wait for the game start. If it will start for 5 or more hours then I will just take a sleep and move on to my losses from slots.
Don't force it. I think this is where we get it all wrong, we are trying to chase our losses in one game that would not even give anything even if we play 500 rounds of it. We will just regret everything in the end.

Gambling loss is normal for people that understand the game but for newbies that are still battling with decisions,this can lead them to making gambling a habit, at this stage I have understand gambling as a mere prediction that works with luck, so for a gambler to adapt in the game of gambling he/she shouldn't rely on gambling or be too sure of the predictions made so far because changes are bound to happen,let not forget that even though history have it that team A won Team B in a particular year, it does not mean that such incident will repeat itself because the players that are present then may not be in the team currently that's why every one should see gambling as an unforseen circumstance that needed carefulness to be involved.

This is true, especially since casinos are not hiding this fact at all and the odds for their games are known to all, this is like tobacco companies selling their products, we know those products can damage your health, and there are many studies which have validated this information over and over again, but since those companies are open about this then it is up to each person to decide whether they want to smoke or not, and casinos follow a similar philosophy, because at the end we know that chances are that we will lose money while gambling, but it is our decision to partake on it or not.

Newbies who start to do things well are when they win , but when they see that they lose they do not accept it because they believe that they will always be lucky, so in View of this it can be seen that when mistakes are made they have to be corrected, and quickly so that it does not become an addiction later, that is what we must see, as a Challenge when we begin to generate Another type of thought About the casino, since it enters into the degree of responsibility of each person and the value that is given to them. It's about money, that's all that is taken into Consideration , in general I will always advocate having more responsibility to not lose money.

Yes to hold a break is good once one see that the game is too favourable and take another strategy, just as you said knowing the casino has edge of more win helps allot why playing it's very important to have a limit to which one Will play for the day to avoid playing above your budget there creating more loss if the game is not favouring the player.

Technically speaking, All gambling games statistics are declared in the form of RTP that frequently show below 100% meaning there’s a guaranteed loss when playing casino games due to house edge advantage.

Losses is not considered as trap if everything is declared at the beginning. I believe profit is more accurate to use as a trap rather than losses since we all know that losses is inevitable on gambling while profit is rare to happened so user can only be trpped if he is winning first then lose later on.

But losing in gambling is never a trap. It’s a clear outcome if you play a game with house advantage.

There is a way to check the fairness of the game if you think that the casino is resorting to manipulation, you never blame the casinos when you're losing you understand that the house has an edge, and you agreed to play with it, with a reputable platform they do not use a trap because everything lies within your choice to play and bet and you decide on everything you do, casinos are game of luck there is no algo to follow like the martingale.
Martingale is newbie alibis while they are losing when they think it's a proven algo to win a game when, in fact, it's not.

I make sports bets and I'm very happy just making sports bets, because in sports betting there is no fraud, the bookmaker posts the games with their respective odds, people choose the game they want to bet on and when they bet they wait for the result of the game, if the team they posted on wins, they win because they got the right bet. It is a fair and transparent scenario. That's why I like sports betting. Now when it comes to gambling games that depend on luck, then people should check that they are dealing with provably fair games before they start playing, when people buy that the game really is provably fair, then they can play. When you lose you shouldn't blame the casino or the game

because many times people purposely don't check if the game is demonstrably fair and when they lose a lot they start to blame the game for them having lost, this is because they don't want to accept the fact that it's normal to lose a lot, gambling wasn't designed for people keep profiting, even though they are provably fair games. but people refuse to realize this. They play a lot, play for many hours, lose everything, become addicted, all because of themselves, not the fault of the games or the casinos. a few days ago I saw a notice in a casino that I no longer remember the name of the casino, which told people to play responsibly

Winning does not depend on your gambling experience, this is how the site owner plays his role, The dealer certainly doesn't beat them all straight away, the dealer sometimes gives them a win in one or two rounds of gambling as if they won with his skill. This is what makes them curious or dive deeper into the next stage, No matter how good a gambler is, he cannot read how the algorithm or system works, everything is controlled by the site owner, the gambler becomes a victim, hopes too much or relies on getting money. from the site. there, or catch up on previous losses.

If you can be good with small amount of money profit and if you win ones in a day you will not gamble for that day again, you can go for 3 odd games and go for martingale for like $25. In any stage that you win, you stop gambling for the day. You can start with $1, then 3, then 9, then $18 and the last is $25. If you win only ones, you will stop gambling. I guess you should be able to win at least one time out of 5 times. But it is dangerous.

The system is "tailored" to "trap" gamblers in various ways. Whether winning or losing, as long as they like the game, they'll continue playing. For example, I mostly lost at slots, so losing shouldn't be a big deal for me. However, recently I had a lucky month where I mostly withdrew with profits. Then I played again and lost, and since I craved big wins, I deposited again and again and burned most of my profits...

It's easy to preach "have some self-control" LoL.

Either we trust their algorithm or not, we will still have to gamble regardless of what, so why the unnecessary stress that we will have to go through and later at the end it does not make or implement any change, gambling is for fun, we should know this in the first place, we are not to be expected of making a continuous wining while gambling, if we already have this kind of mentality, all these check and balance stress will not be of much concern to us than for us to find a reliable gambling platform and place our bet, enjoy their service and gamble.

When you are already in front of your computer, hard to stop playing especially if you are already on the losing side. This is why, it is always best to remind yourself on why you are starting your games in the first place. Do you have enough money to play with? Or do you have extra funds to access your gambling account? To what extent are you going to burn your funds in your betting games? What is really your goal for this day? These are just few queries to yourself so you are fully aware of why you are going thru this path. As no one will take care of your business, you should be the one looking out for your financial welfare.

The casino will always have the upper hamd when it comes to gambling. Though it's a fair business and controlled by algorithms, the casinos will want  to make a bit of changes to the game. New games offers different chances but not too far from the previous games available to play. They use similar algorithms to develop them. So winnings actually depends on how lucky you get when you play because the house will always win. They won't design the games in a way to cause them more loss than profit. So I think more gamblers loses more than winning when they play.

Gambling loses can be a trap to any gambler that is chasing after his/her losses. On the process of Chasing your losses you might win half of the money you have lost but the interesting part is if you are not careful enough you can still lose them all again because you are chasing your losses. The. Housing might be chasing after your money then you will be very busy chasing after your losses because you don't know what is ahead of the game as the games haven't yet ended. Gamble can be fun when you are winning but immediately you starts chasing after your losses you will lose everything and you won't find it any more funny because you have lost.

For me it isn't a trap, but a stopper if I already loss the amount that I deposited then it is time to stop.
It all depends on how we would view it, if you would only chase what you loss then surely you would be chasing forever, since surely after you recover it you wouldn't stop since there is no profit at all so it would either be profit or more loss.

This is not a trap because it is indeed a gambling algorithm like this you will have a lot of losses than wins from we can know that the casino is the one who benefits but this will not make us nervous because we know the gambling game as we know it.

In essence, never assume that gambling can produce especially if you are chasing losses, it will get worse by losing your money, so what I do is play on the slot for fun after that there is nothing to think about anymore, “streak thankfully if not not a problem”.

I will not consider gambling too much let alone discuss algorithms, because for me gambling you will definitely experience losses as well as wins.

I don't believe in such thing, You have a choice to decide whether you will get trapped or not as a result of that , Secondly before coming to gamble,  you should have known the reasons you are getting involved in gambling, whether you want to see it as a way of making money or just to play for fun, we'll whichever way that suits, you are entitled to quit anytime should your aim of gambling isn't getting achieved, I would say that those that got trapped as a result of losing in their first attempts don't reall have self decipline.

You should not employ the same pattern on many bets to extend your bankroll or win. It's a luck-based game. Everything depends on luck. You have to try and dare your luck. The house edge will play out, and there's no enjoyment or thrill in the game if you're predictable, In a luckj based game its good to be unpredictable in your bets

You should check the fairness. It's hard to play in casinos with doubts in your mind; you have to free yourself from anxiety. Trust is important in casinos. Trust that you are playing in a fair casino and that there will be no issues when winning and withdrawing a huge amount of money.

They are making business so it would really be just that normal that you would really be definitely be assuming that they will really be always that in advantage side on which they do have that HE on which we know that you would really be losing money in longer runs and this is their advantage and opposite into its players. This is why as a players perspective then it would really be always best that you should really be making  yourself that be able to realize on things on which you should really be gonna needing to do. So that you wont really be finding yourself that becoming too impulsive when it comes to gambling because on the time that it wouldnt be able to hit up your expectations then you would really be that too desperate on trying to achieve it, then this is where mistakes would be keeping on piling up until you would be busting it all
on which this is something that should be avoided.

It's true to some sense, but it only stays at "want". Doing it? Nah, pass. It's pretty easy to recognize how it's just going to trap you in an endless loop of "wanting" to get back your losses lol.

You lost simply because you lost, no need to overthink. If you think it's because of the algorithm ,by that same logic then all casinos would make you lose, so why bother gambling at all? Every algorithm for each game is designed to create a pseudo 50-50 chance scenario, simple as that. The sad thing is most people expect that if they lost once, twice, thrice, then the chances of winning the next one would increase. No, the algorithm doesn't take that into account in the first place lol.

Well, I cannot say that this idea is wrong. It is a normal response to frustration that whenever a gambler ends up in loss, he would either gamble again to get his money back or just accept things and just play on a reset for the next day. However, what happens on the usual, as I am also guilty of it, you'd have the urge to rush against your loss because it will be an unwanted mood if you'd just sit doing nothing. Although it is not representative to every gambler; there are some who still has control over things and their emotions.

With algorithm and house edge, we cannot do anything about it to be honest 'coz we re just consumers or users of their platforms. We cannot force winning in the first place and the only thing we could rely on is our luck.The only way to check this rate is to try it for yourself and see if outcomes would be salty or not, and if yes you are free to move to other sites.

Definitely the gambling loses are the main reason why people get addicted, because no body is happy seeing himself loosing alot without gaining. So in the quest to porsue the lost amount out of greed, they end up losing more than winning. They now see it as problematic to win often. So the problem of not regularly wining is just to gamble and recover the old loses which might not be possible. so we should bear it at the back of our minds that gambling should not be done as a form or retaliation or revenge, otherwise you lose more than win. Don't just panic when you lose, just be calm and do the right thing by seing those days you didn't win as not your lucky days and see those days you win as a lucky day, by so doing you don't gamble aggressively.

If you can't afford to lose, don't play with these amounts. It's not realistic to always expect to win.

Of course casinos operate on a house edge and won't let you win reliably. You need to account for losing more often than winning. Otherwise there would be no casinos. So to the people ready to risk life changing amounts for them, they have to reconsider. Winning something might help them but really if they lose the ruinage will be very costly too, and the psychological stress is never worth it.

If you think you're in danger of that, you must seriously consider stepping away from any gambling platform for a moment. Just do it with amounts that won't risk your security and only then should you continue. Otherwise better stop altogether.

Losses aren't necessarily a trap. Well, gambling is already a trap itself, but what I'm saying is that losing doesn't necessarily push a gambler to bet more. It's all a matter of discipline and control on the part of the gambler. Other gamblers stop even if they're losing. They don't even try to get back at the casino or recover their losses.

Gambling is generally based on luck. Results are random. Changing seeds don't even mean a thing. Casinos always have the edge. However small it may be, it will prevail in the long run. Don't cite cases of highly profitable and lucky jackpot winners. They're the exception, not the rule. Casinos remain a money-making machine. And they're making money out of gamblers.

I believe losses do not necessarily are always supposed to be a "trap" or encourage a gambler to continue to wager his money until to be left penniless. To some gamblers, specially those who have a minimum of experience, suffering from losses can be a wake up call for them to realize what they are doing with their money and whether it is appropriate for them to continue to do what they do in the long term... In the best case/scanerio, the gambler will decrease the total wager they accumulate during a single session on the casino and feel more comfortable with the potential wins and the losses in the future, it is the opposite path which could lead to gambling addiction. The alternative is always to dive deeper into loss chasing, and we all know how that ends up.

The actual "trap" when comes to gambling is not the losses but how those services, in a clever way, sell the chance of a jackpot to people who are willing to hold onto that possibility for much time.

with those who are trapped in gambling and experience big losses, it is because of their own mistakes, they misinterpreted gambling and were wrong in gambling, where they gambled inappropriately, if they could gamble appropriately, perhaps they would not be trapped in gambling that is harm them. but unfortunately they get themselves trapped in their own thoughts. What you said is correct, this is a matter of discipline, those who are disciplined in gambling will not gamble again after experiencing defeat.
considering that gambling is a game of chance, it is true that gambling is based on luck regarding winning. because victory, which is rarely obtained, is something that is difficult to predict, even someone who is said to be a professional at gambling, in my opinion, they cannot win with certainty, because winning at gambling is based on luck. I agree with you, indeed casinos are money-making machines, but that only applies to the host, while for players losses and losses are what is usually obtained in the long term.

I don't believe in the algorithms because the probability is always on their side to do most of the work and gamblers always make the worst decisions while playing. I used to play in every other casino I could find back then in hopes of getting better luck, but i'd say it's more or less the same when our luck can easily flip like a switch.

That's true, it's more about how we react to these losses since we're not forced to play after every loss. Some still fall for it because they get carried away by their emotions and struggle to take the hit in these losing situations.

That friend is right, losses in gambling tend to be traps for impulsive gamblers because they would go ahead and chase their losses right after they occur which in return makes them lose more money and the trap keeps getting deeper over time. Responsible gamblers are safe from this trap because they don't chase their losses but let them go and continue gambling normally like nothing happened which is what every gambler should be doing actually.

Winning and losing is barely about algorithms unless you are gambling at a casino that is manipulative or has evil intentions and has tweaked the algorithms to make the gamblers lose more than usual, otherwise, in normal gambling, it's all about you being lucky or unlucky whether you will win or lose, and the casino gets its fair share through the house edge.

It's easier said than done. I mean, as a gambler, do you have that kind of discipline or strong discipline that you will stop after a few games? I think not, because gamblers will not be satisfied until they play numerous games or sessions. The most effective way in order to minimise the losses or for the gambler not to become too addicted is that they play numerous games or sessions. The most effective way in order to minimise the losses or for the gambler not to become too addicted is that it will set a limit. For example, if I'm not based on the number of games, but on how much funds or capital I have allocated for the day, I have a rule that if I lose all that allocated money, then I will stop playing no matter what, and if I somehow win and I notice that I either doubled or quite earn half of my capital, then I will also stop even if I'm in the momentum.

The thing is, gambling expectations will always get people wrecked, if you have this crazy expectation that gambling will bring you fortune you have simply traded your possible dream for the impossible, for me gambling is not the place for me to look for that high amount that can sustain me for years in life.

I could get this result but I am not expecting it, that is why I will look forward to enjoying my games instead of looking forward to becoming a millionaire from gambling, when you start seeing people going for loans all because of gambling then they are not in their right senses anymore..





That is you man, the reasons why we all gamble is different, if you can't get a hold of yourself when gambling then it is YOU, I have seen a lot before I start gambling, I can still see a brother who was once a popular person in my street and gambling turned everything around for him, till this day he isn't balanced yet, it's easier said than done? Say it again.

Fear of gambling addiction is the beginning of wisdom, been a responsible gambler is not even that hard but what you believe in is what will determine if you can control yourself or not.

Yeah I don't think gambling losses are traps to gamblers,I rather see it as a way of letting you be discipline with your spendings and gamble with the the least of your income or finance, but then alot of gamblers ignore it and blame casinos for it.
It's simple understanding not to expect so much in gambling and your chances of generating losses are minimized.

Yes, it's not gambling but it's about us people, though for the many, I think it was the win (preferably a massive one) is the one that can be said like a trap to them because they will now come back and see if they can hit it again or bet more to win more than their previous record.

Beginner gamblers usually come because they are curious and they don't have a goal yet. If we think our goals or satisfaction has not been met yet, we don't feel like quitting and this is why we ended up getting addicted later on. Losing at first attempts are too early and even our selves, we will likely try again. It does not really equate to not having a self-discipline.

For novice gamblers, perhaps they just want to satisfy their curiosity, but by wanting to satisfy their curiosity, they will unconsciously become addicted, especially if they have an environment where the majority of gamblers are, it can make them closer to gambling, making them addicted to gambling. . Indirectly, in my opinion, they are beginners who definitely want to win, and after winning they can have the idea that gambling is indeed easy to make money.

In this way, it will clearly make them addicted to gambling and make them addicted. As time goes by, they won't care about losing money before getting the win they really want. with them like this they really don't have discipline or they forget the discipline they initially had.

It depends on the game you are playing because if you have a good strategy and analytics with the game itself like the table top games you can easily identify the possible risk and odds of winning the game base on the previous results, but if you are just playing with the slot games or programmatically games i guess its quite hard to predict or at least lessen the chance to lose a large amount. Another thing is you don't need to take loan just to satisfy your gambling needs you will just lead those to your debts that cant pay once you lose more than that.

For the casino to be able to make money of the activities of gamblers they have to make sure the algorithm is constantly in a changing cycle, that way they will be able to have the edge that will keep tham a step ahead of the gamblers and be able to make more profits off the gamblers but then some gamblers seem not to have understood this just yet so they literally just keep gambling until they are no longer financially capable again to probably be able to place a bet by virtue of them going bankrupt. It's very important to understand thst this constant change in the gambling algorithm keeps you are a disadvantage so you most likely can't be lucky hence utilize your chances and exit the casinos as soon as you can so you don't get stucked and have to loose all your funds to the casino to the point you probably get bankrupt.

It's always still much ber you apply caution a d know when to stop not to follow the trap that comes with loosing as rhst will most definitely always keep you at an disadvantage such rhst you can almost not be able to have a chance to win because you may be playing from an unstable state of mind due to your losses.

Having a system is great. Thats the first step to winning, trust me. Set bankroll-based boundaries to demonstrate self-control and financial intelligence. Fantastic and smart. Everyone loves the game, but the savvy victors know when to quit, whether they're ahead or behind. Nobody makes better decisions under pressure than me, not only while gambling.

Dont overlook the big picture. We love having fun, but responsibly. That requires recognising the game, the risks, and most crucially, your limits. Stopping when you've doubled up or lost your predetermined amount is excellent risk management, remarkable. This plan protects your money and mind. Enjoying gaming or any high-stakes situation requires discipline and intelligence. Thats how to win large and have fun. Just trust me.

I don't have to thinks about algorithms on gambling platform because I don't knows about that. But one thing that I knows is when we lose some money, we can tempts to deposit more money to continue our gambling activity and that can cause us lose more money. We will not realizes about what we do because our minds will keeps telling us to keeps playing gambling because we have the opportunity to wins the games. That can makes us to do what our minds says and will not thinks that can gives us the big lose. But that will not works for someone who can thinks about the risks doing that and will not deposit his money just to playing gambling. They will be more carefully when playing gambling and will not spends more money than they can afford to lose.

You are right to an extent, every of our actions in gambling has an implication on whether positive or negative as the case may applies, we have to be mindful that gambling is what we must do with caution, there is limit to everything, we shouldn't be found as those thinking in one direction towards gambling, we have to set limitation and be principled if possible from the way we are gambling, this will help us have a better gambling experience each time we are on it.

Gambling losses are traps for people who are looking forward for a life changing moment in gambling, where they will end up having everything they ever dreamed of, and only a few people shy away from gambling once they are in losses.

Normally losses should scare you away from gambling, unfortunately, this works only on female gamblers, some will say that it depends on what happen on your first day you start gambling, if you win you will likely feel at home, and if you lose you escape the possible addiction.

You will probably find yourself in this situation if you take loans to
gamble, remember you have to pay back? This alone is enough to make you keep gambling, thinking that you must make the money back.

If the money is yours you can feel the same way too but it is a bit easier to let go if the money belongs to you, the expectation from gambling is why all these are happening, gambling was meant to be a game of fun, it deserves few dollars not big amount and no to loan too.

You continue on the same theme, betting is a probability, if we flip the coin,it is 50-50, if it is between two friends, but when you add a third party, e.g. a casino, there is the HE, it is simple.

Then you adapt the above to each game, and you develop skills, to be close to what is known as breakeven, this in traditional games, in Poker, blackjack, sports betting, the focus varies a little more to include intellectual skills, experience , etc.

Betting is first and foremost a game based on probabilities, where even a 99% probability in your favor makes you lose.

In the case of the "management" of the probabilities or what is known as rigged, it is something that today with crypto casinos you can get out of your head with PF, and in traditional casinos, most traditional Fiat casinos are audited by third parties.

Just like what most people here say, casinos have a house edge which allows them to gain more profits than the players. So no matter how players set their strategy, they will not be able to beat casinos which have algorithms designed with a higher chance of winning. Because I know this, I consider that gambling is just entertainment - I don't use gambling as a place to make a lot of money, even borrowing people's money just to chase wins - I consider it to be entertainment to fill my free time.

Competitive games are more interesting. Playing undisputed in any game is quite boring and makes the player less concerned about participating in such game. Casinos provides a competition between the player and the house. When a player losses he'd want to win. Because winning is not common to him. He's tired of seeing those losses. I think coming up with consistency as a winning strategy should be the dream of any gambler.

The house still makes it to number one spot on the leader board of who wins the game. While the player struggles to win huge. It's quite a trap indeed, because the race wouldn't stop easily. Most players find it very difficult to stop when the losses are numerous. It happens to everyone but ”self control" is the vital factor or skill which helps players from avoiding such traps. However, the entertaining aspect of gambling means different things for a lot of people.

True, the fact is that no matter where you gamble and no matter what type of game you play, it is still a gamble that will ultimately refer to one of two possibilities at the end of the session, namely between winning and losing, and the main point is that anyone can never know about how the results they will get at the end of the session or simply as we often say that gambling is an activity that can never be predicted no matter how good the strategy you have.

However, if it is your time to lose then obviously you will lose and if luck comes at the right time then most likely you will win. I think this is the real fact about how gambling works and because of this also why we always suggest that never make gambling a place to earn because it makes no sense if you put your intention and goal to earn in a place that is completely unpredictable is a ridiculous idea that can never be justified. And like you said, it's best to have the perspective that gambling is nothing more than an entertainment game to pass the time when you're bored.

Chasing losses is risky in gambling because you cannot predict how the game will turn out. How can you chase what you don't have the capacity to catch? There are some gamblers who have successfully recovered what they have loss by gambling more but it is better to follow your budget.

In gambling sometimes you win and other times you might lose. Experience is important in gambling because it will assist in making good decisions since you have understanding. When it comes to luck, you do nothing to attract it. It comes once on a while when you don't even expect it. But depending on only luck to win games is improper, we should spend time in learning about the game. Always gamble when you are sound and not when you are high, sick or feeling sleepy.

It is a common habit for gamblers to revisit a gambling platform they think is favorable. Even in physical casinos people assume that some give them more luck than another. I don't know how to check gambling algorithm,I just ensure I bet with reputable casinos that is trusted by many gamblers.

I have previously stated that I called this the "cycle of gambling" where a player will most likely gambling again regardless of the result of his games.

For example, if a person gambles, if he either wins or losses, he would most likely try and gambling again his luck. If a person won in his games, he would at least attempt again to try his luck and just to see if he would win. If he losses, there is this feeling where they have this need to recover their losses by gambling again.

This urge and temptation are what draw people to stick into a gambling cycle until they are satisfied with their winnings (positive outcome) or if they have already exhausted their resources (negative outcome) for the day.


Well, I trust the casinos on how they handle their algorithms especially if they are a respectable and reputable gambling platform. I am pretty confident that they have all the algorithms within the boundaries set by the respective laws in order to prevent any kind of unfair advantage over its players.

The game is to win or lose and to be lucky or not to be lucky at any given moment, the only thing I always look for is to have good luck to win some money, when we are on a good streak I think we can all do things better, I will always say something, if we start looking for a way to do everything right we can win, but when we lose we have to stop and not continue playing, if we play and lose a lot of money it is viable to stop , those who continue playing Experience many losses and can Falling into addiction, that is something that we have to avoid falling into , that is why we Always have to consider things , it is better to be calm and have fun than to have a bad time.

Gambling is a game of chance there are no algorithms to think about. If the gambler can keep his mind calm and not be lured by the high surprises of the casinos he will have less chance of losing the bet. Most gambling platforms create traps with algorithms to increase the attractiveness of gamblers by increasing the chances of winning. But you have to be aware of the risks there is no exact guarantee of winning in gambling games so do your due diligence on the site before depositing your money. Gambling is a platform where there are more losers than winners.

Yes, that's true, indeed gambling is a game of chance, because there is no certain way to win in gambling. Just based on luck, we can win, but we cannot predict when luck will be on our side, because luck cannot be obtained according to our own wishes, luck will be on our side by itself. but what is unfortunate is that there are those who force themselves to win at gambling by forcing themselves to continue gambling because they want to win, indirectly they are also chasing their luck.
Algorithms created to be attractive are not strange because after all they will create ways to attract lots of people, including by placing advertisements that say how easy it is to win. but of course this is not entirely true, because winnings in gambling will not be achieved easily even if they force themselves to continue gambling, with those who continue to gamble, they are the ones who I feel are trapped by algorithms and advertising or lures that are created. by the host.

Chasing old losses will not provide clear certainty that they will be able to recover them soon because what happens is that you will experience bigger losses again and again and you will have no end to chasing your losses if you continue to lose, chasing losses is something that It is very risky for anyone because they are likely to become addicts. If you don't believe it, you can ask people who are addicted to gambling. They became addicted to it because they were too ambitious to win big and because they thought too much about the losses they experienced and they didn't accept it so they continued gambling continuously to recover the losses.

This can indeed be said to be a trap, therefore, as gamblers who can think realistically, we need to be careful if we want to gamble and feel that if we don't want to lose quite a lot of money. It's better not to use big money just to win big because if it doesn't match your expectations then it will happen painful for you and you have to lose your hard earned money.

There is no need to trust them because that's already on them. It's up to you if you're going to keep on testing your through them despite knowing that it's going to be hard for you to know the actual truth about it.

This is pretty much what everyone has been doing. And luck is within us and not with the gambling sites. So, you test your own luck through your bets.

In that all you tackled in the topic with your friends ? the part below is what take my attention because it seems that your friend is truly desperate in taking back his losses and i believe that chasing losses is the stupidest thing that we must achieve.


try not to let him do such mate , because for sure he will be in vain if he continues to act like this in gambling world.

interesting, I think what your friend said, it all depends on our perspective regarding gambling. Moreover, it talks about losing in gambling and in the end the losses actually increase. well, for the first point we are talking from the perspective of gambling psychology. In fact, this is a common thing, especially if someone loses more than they win during their gambling sessions. Our brain will usually process it with excessive emotions, which in the end speculation and assumptions about our defeat become justification. In fact, we as gamblers actually know that the ratio of losses is greater than wins. This is not a trap for gamblers, but casinos are designed that way. simply imagine the opposite, what if more gamblers won than lost.

The second point, this is no less interesting. It would be very natural for most gamblers to think that gambling is based on luck, especially in games that are based purely on luck. I mean, one of playing slots. IMO, slot games are purely up to our luck, regardless of the algorithm in question in this post. If basically we are not lucky, playing randomly on gambling sites, most of the results are the same. In fact, this is what makes someone lose a lot from the random results of betting at random in many casinos. I speak from personal experience, so I speak from the perspective of my gambling experience. Whatever the site, we definitely have a lot of experience regarding gambling. do gambling algorithms matter? to be honest, I don't really understand it. Moreover, playing casino games. I am a football lover, even betting on football cannot be separated from luck. although, we always involve many variables to minimize the risk of defeat. But still the point remains the same, winning and losing are part of the game in the betting that we do.

Actually there is not much we can do to bring victory, because of course as I said above that only luck can ensure that you will actually win at the end of the session, whatever the strategy and whatever method you use when gambling I will say that these actions will never be able to guarantee your victory at the end of the session, unless luck comes at the right time, and anyone will never know when luck will come, so this is what makes us always advise about it is better to gamble with a sufficient budget and not put too much hope on winning.

Simply put, if luck comes at the right time then you will win, so it's better to gamble with the amount you can afford to lose, don't overdo it because losing will always be a definite possibility when you are unlucky, and it's also better to focus on various precautions such as putting a lot of restrictions on the budget, time of involvement and expectations of winning, because as I said whatever you do can never guarantee winning completely, and by focusing more on precautions then obviously we will be a little less likely to lose significantly along with avoiding the possibility of addiction.

@OP, you can read the quote below to see what a friend too actually said about addiction which I think is related to this matter.


When you loss in gambling or you win, it actually light up your brain and if you can not control what ever feelings you are getting at that moment. You might end up regretting later.

Either ways, if you win a huge amount in gambling and you can not control your self to stop, you might end up to also loss all your wining. If you also lose while gambling and can not control your self to stop, then you might end up to still lose more than you expect, you might even be forced to take loan.

Once we decide to gamble we trust the casino and their fairness... It's the same with slot providers, once we start spinning we believe that slot provider is not "rigged".

Gambling losses are not traps to new games, some people think that changing the game will help them win, and some of us like to try out new games. Many different things can drive someone to change the game, and I can't connect traps with changing the game.


There is nothing clever about these words... the guy got lost in gambling and thinks he can get his money back by gambling more and with higher stakes. In theory, it's possible, if you have a big bankroll, patience, and a cool head... but your friend is rushing into disaster with borrowed money to gamble even harder.

This is why gambling business is really that profitable due to this kind of cycle on which it would really be a never ending kind of thing or happening due to common human being behavior on which it would really be best that you do really need up for yourself to be that attentive on what are the things that you've been dealing specially with gambling. Gamble for fun and on the time that you are losing then  it would be simply that neither you would really be accepting those loses and move on or would really be comppletely stopping since you dont really like on losing money on which as simple as that.

It would really be that normal for a business to offer those promotions and bonuses on which it would really be adding up on the interest of those people or gambler who would really be able to see out
but we know that these things are really just that traps for you to lose even more. If you are really that aware on how it works then it would really be not something that could affect you out majority.

Most people do not take loses that easily and just forget about it.They get mad and don't accept that they just lost,especially when it is about money they want to come back and get back what they lost,they never think that they will lose again yet this is what happens most of the time,a few people that win big and post it in the chats of the casinos or on youtube/twitch online streaming services make other people want to comeback for more and win back what they lost dreaming about that max win.This makes it even worse as they are not fully concentrated and only think about getting the max win while they are losing again money.

I have picked a lot of things from this comment and I also expect some gamblers that doesn't know about this things you just said to better learn from the comments now. If I am not mistaken, I have seen some discussions here when some gamblers in this gambling section are saying that winning a bet depends on the strategy the gambler used for predictions. However I think that's from his/her own knowledge but to me I don't think that the guy is correct because from my very first day experience in gamble I have noticed that for a gambler to win a bet, he should only pray for luck and nothing else because only the predictions and strategies can not help anyone to win if luck isn't there.

I  personally do not see lossing as a trap. If I play and lose, I'll feel discouraged to play again so as to avoid losing more money. When I hear people say they are trying to recover their losses, I wonder the kind of motivation behind their decision. Winning in gambling is actually supposed to be a trap everyone should beware of. Winnings are very sweet, anyone who is not careful would want to taste that sweetness again. Those who claim they are trying to recover their losses will not quit gambling even if they succeed in recovering the loss. Whatever a gambler thinks is a trap to him, it is strongly influenced by greed and nothing else. Until he refuses to let greed control him, he will remain trapped.

If we think in that way then it will also be a trap to win like a guys winning repeatedly some times and that's why he get into greed and then he made more wager and then he face loss. So trap can be both way you have be wise strategy to skip them .

losing in gambling is certainly not a trap because I think losing in gambling is something that is bound to happen, with gamblers who experience defeat it is a natural thing, but with those who want to recover their losses they are the ones who in my opinion are trapped by gambling. where they will continue to spend money to be able to gamble, with those who want to recover losses, perhaps their motivation is winning because I think victory is all they want, they want a big win that can cover all the defeats and losses they have experienced.
That makes sense, winning at gambling can indeed be said to be sweet, but of course not everyone likes and wants sweet things. but with gambling I think all gamblers definitely want to win so they can feel satisfied and when they feel satisfied they will probably stop for a while and return to gambling, because as you said those who return to gambling may be because they want to feel winning again. that sweet one.

When someone can wins in gambling, he must realizes that he can't wins more money and needs to thinks to stops his gambling activity because there's no guarantees he can wins more. If he lose, he must not try to recovers his lose because that will be too difficult and can causes him loses more money without have a chance to wins. The traps in gambling is real so that's why people must be careful and not risks his money too much if he can't accept his lose. Many people keeps playing gambling without thinks about the risks that can becomes bigger and when they lose, their minds will keeps telling them to continue playing gambling. That will makes them gets lose much money but that doesn't stops them and realizes about what happens to them. That will makes them feels bad when losing all of their money in gambling.

When someone is inexperienced on something then they will loss more thrn a experienced person. here is same, when a gambler try to play and enjoy a new game then they are still not experienced on that game so there losing chance will higher. no one can guarantee anything on gambling So win of all games new or old will depend on luck.  So no one can avoid loss here.  If you gamble, you have to accept the loss.

Yes and I think what I said above is true because I said some of these things based on my own experience as a gambler who has been involved in several types of gambling for more than 2 years, and that is what I can conclude from the results of rational thinking above. the experience that I have so far, because the logic is that there is nothing that can bring victory other than luck if we talk about activities or games that cannot be predicted at all or you don't know what the results will be at the end of the session, and you have also experienced it and prove it for yourself from what you have experienced as a gambler where you agree with what I said above that in fact overall winning in gambling depends on how lucky you are during the session.

On the other hand, I also hope that gamblers, especially those who always overreact in pursuit of victory, will read the facts I convey above. I think we cannot lie to ourselves about the difficulty of winning and I am sure that you or anyone here has experienced it. you lose even if you use various strategies that you think are good and have brought you victory in the previous session, but when you try again it turns out you lose, and that means it is clear that only luck can really lead us to a definite victory, and one more thing what we have to understand is that luck can never be known when it will come, meaning you will not know when you can win, so this is the reason why I said previously above that it is better for us to focus on implementing various methods to minimize the possibility of losing. significant.

That's the belief of many of us do, when we're in total despair and losing streaks. The best thing to do is to either stop or change the game. Because if you want to continue but don't want to go with the same game, that's all you want to do or else you're going to keep on losing with the same game over and over again. With that, your best choice is to do things like changing the game and as you've said, just trust on the casino and the provider of these games.

Someone who doesn't understand the game they are playing well will certainly find it difficult to win the game, it's normal to experience losses on their bets and when they understand it well then there will be a possibility that they can win from the bets they play, I agree with You, no one can guarantee that we can win bets in gambling with certainty, as you said, the victory of every gambler really depends on their luck to be able to win their bets and it would be better when we gamble, we must be able to limit ourselves so as not to spend too much money on gambling.

      -   Every casino game, as far as I know, is programmed so that the house edge always wins most of the time. It is already programmed in their algorithm that the players who deposit money on their platform will often lose, and they will only allow a small amount of winnings.

I have never seen the players lose the house edge; instead, the proven and tested house edge is always a winner, and we can only count the winners in each casino on our fingers, and that is the truth—even gamblers know that it is okay for them.

Let me understand something, you deposit your real money into a casino and then spend your time and energy with no plan of making money because the fun is all that matters to you? If you happen to win, do you feel good that your accounts get bigger or the fun you got while gambling is enough? If you deposit and perhaps lose it all, you don't feel bad instead you fine money and deposit again and the fun continues?

Furthermore, don't like you like computer games, most of which have similar features like some gambling activities? That would have been more fun or are you saying that as money is not involved, you will not be able to feel the fun?

I catch fun while gambling but fun is not why I gamble. This is the reason I really want to know how you are able to remain a gambler if all you do is gamble for fun.

losses in gambling are not a trap for gamblers, because if a gambler returns to gambling even when he understands that he has lost a lot, it is not a trap from the casino, but the mistake lies with the individual who thinks that he can recover his losses by gambling. more money. because many people blame that casinos are fraudulent and evil because many people lose their money there, but they don't think that casinos are also a place of business where they have algorithms that benefit them. if they think that the casino can give them a chance to hit the jackpot every time they play at it, then it is a mistake of their mindset to be too greedy.

Whether you trust the algorithm of the game that you're playing or not, you're probably not going to be able to do anything anyway because you're still going to play. Maybe if it's proven to be rigged then you probably have an answer to it like a complaint to the people behind that casino, but that's rarely the case on this one because the way these casinos rig their game, they still make sure that you still have the chance or so they like for you to think. Maybe the reason why we think things are rigged is because we just can't fathom that we're losing so much money whenever we gamble that we need some form of mechanism that would make us think that there's some tangible forces behind that's conspiring to make you lose money.

That's what I think too, believe it or not we will still play it but actually the losses experienced by players are because the casino has a house edge, that is how they make a profit, but gamblers may think they are being cheated or trapped so it is difficult to stop, even though when it's hard for us to stop, not because we're trapped or entrapped, but because we can't control ourselves so we continue to want to play even though we've exceeded the limits of our abilities, and that's what often makes players continue gambling because they're trying to get back what they've lost, that's a difficult thing because there are pressure to be able to produce so that the gambler may make the wrong decision.

Experiencing loses doesn't mean that such gambler will be in loss all his time in gambling. Most time the gambler has not gotten himself familiar with the casino or the games in the casino platform. Yes, losing in gambling can make someone strategies a different approach to gambling which would make him win or lose more. Its not a trap because there is a probability that they may win in the process. But it can be somehow a trap since the gambler would turn out to be addicted if he continues to play no matter how many times he losses.

The gambler who loss the money surely play the next game to recover the loss.It’s against your principles,if you don’t play next game after the loss means.You should be happier that you are not the gambling addicted person.It’s my opinion towards the people who play the game with the gambling addiction.The gamblers who loss the money in the gambling will nog accept the loss in the gambling,So he will convert the holding fiat to the cryptocurrency and start to rebuild their victory in the gambling site.But the new game is based on the recovery of the loss,So the gamblers mostly take the big risk in this game.The game with more risk may not give you the profit all the time.


Well said,because gambling is the business and most of the gamblers thought it’s the treasure.So it will give more money by placing their money in the game.But the fact is gambling will allow the gamblers to win any money,if they fail to withdraw the money and started to play the game with the greedy will leads to the loss.The gamblers forgot the two things,the game will not favour him all the time as like he made the big money.Second was unique business tactics,if the gamblers failed to withdraw the money.The gambling site algorithm was changed and it may leads to the loss of the capital money.So it was essential after the withdrawal of the funds from gambling site.

Indeed, losing is not a trap, after all it is a thing that will definitely happen. Given that the chances of losing are greater than winning, it is not strange that many people are gambling and losing. True what you say, the fault is with each individual who has lost a lot and they think they can recover by gambling again, I think the casino does not trap the player but the player is the one who plunges himself into gambling so that he is trapped in addiction which means long-term defeat.
I myself do not understand those who think that casinos are cheating, when in my opinion it is clear that the gambling they provide is a paid game and of course they are also looking for profit, with those who gamble and lose or lose money of course it is not unusual anymore, maybe those who are obsessed with winning are the ones who think that gambling is cheating but in my opinion it is not like that.

If you check very well you will understand that no one who is a loser in gambling that likes to continue participating in same gambling platform, theirs is something I understand in gambling and also in gamblers, a gambler like to gamble in new platform that have a new game, mostly a platform that gives bonus any platform that is new and also gives bonus is the platform that gamblers always like to associate themselves to, so I know quite well that if you are not winning gambling frequently and you are experiencing much losses in gambling you will definitely change when new one comes out.

Well there are way to check if casinos are provably fair, but I doubt everyone here is doing their due diligence because we all know that gambling is based on pure luck and if we lose then we might as well shrugged our shoulders.

Which means we might not be concern of our losses as we might be thinking that we can go back the next day and see how our luck it. Maybe it will be very different as the last one and this time we are going to win big money.

Can you tell me about how to check whether a casino is fair or not to the gamblers? I've never heard of such a way so far, and I don't think it can ever be done if your goal is to get results in gambling. No need to be too complicated buddy, simply put only luck can lead us to victory, meaning that we can never measure whether the casino is fair or not in terms of giving winnings to the gamblers involved, because that's like you are looking for statistics about the luck that is in everyone while as we know that anyone will never know when he will be lucky to win, meaning I think there is no justice if we talk about winning in gambling, the point is that if you are very lucky then you will win more often than other gamblers.

On the other hand, not worrying too much about the losses that have been experienced maybe that is a good mindset, but however we should not put excessive expectations on the next try, because however the results at the end of the session now will never affect the results at the end of the session on the next try, meaning that it does not mean that now you lose then tomorrow you will win, we must understand that the results of gambling are not influenced by history in previous results, still anything can happen including losing again.

Its strategy, not luck, to know when to hold and fold. We all adore the adrenaline rush of winning big, but the genuine winners arent lucky. Smart people. All of us try to recover from losses, right? To avoid that downward spiral, know when to stand back. No one wins by chasing loses. Smart money understands when to go and return. Allow me to be sincere about algorithms and random bets. Doing that is a recipe for disaster. True players know the game well. They adapt, not merely throw money at the problem, seeing trends. So they win by playing their way.

participate in the same gambling platform? From here you should be able to learn and be aware of your logical reasoning, from this valuable experience you can find out how their system works that they control everything and you don't repeat the mistake a second time. If you repeat this, you are just stupid and trapped in the same abyss. That's the bookie's way of attracting gamblers with their newest games, even though they provide various types of bonuses, for example. Do you know all the gambling systems controlled by them?

When he mentioned about experience, I laughed I'm my mind because the casino owners are aware of you're having such experiences and that's why there's more than one algorithm to service users. They change it occasionally to avoid you getting your patterns very right and exploiting the casino. They thrive more on people's loses and ensure they're consistently having gains from user funds. They run software updates and tests regularly to ensure they're on their best composure.

Experience is good for basic understanding of the game, but its not in any way a determining factor for your continuous wins at the casino. If you fail to gamble responsibly because you've figured some kind of magic to exploit the casino, you're getting close to addiction as soon as your pattern fails and you'll pay the ultimate price for your indiscipline.

Understanding what you are telling the truth, things with experience are very good, but even so with all the experience you may have you can still lose and that is something that cannot be avoided, games of chance will always be given to luck. Strategies They are ways of being able to play, but they do not ensure that they can make a difference, this always happens in games of chance, sports betting, if a person believes that he will win just because he has experience , then he is in Maybe you have spent a lot of money, because that will not help you much in a game, because experience will help you know when you should withdraw from the game to avoid Losing more.

It's not because losing at a casino will be a reason to try another game, I don't think the casino intended that kind of strategy, but it's up to you what you do if you experience a loss, because many of us want to try different gambling because their mindset is only focused on gambling, they don't think that when we lose, we should give ourselves a break so that we can better think of a proper strategy for the next session to be played.

Of course I completely agree with you because in gambling experience is just lesson for much better attitudes such as how to minimize risks and also betting strategies, this will not guarantee safety but can make gamblers careful to reduce losses.
But I think some people have different perception, they think experience will be one part of winning, but if think about it logically then all of that won't be able to change the gambling algorithm.
Although it is true that experience when combined with knowledge and intelligence can create much better predictions, this still does not provide guarantee of victory, only greater increase in chances.

Gambling algorithm is random, the way gambling works is to provide very small chance for the gambler to win and what actually have to do is just be careful and try to continuously minimize excessive losses.

Losing at a casino can be a sign for gamblers to stops their gambling activity and not keeps playing gambling. They can loses all of their money if they decides to do that because when they lose their money in gambling, they will gets tempts from gambling and that can makes them keeps playing gambling. Many people are not considers stops playing gambling when they lose because their emotion will becomes high and that can attracts them to moves to the other gambling games and play that games. Maybe that's a trap for gamblers who can't controls themselves in gambling so they still gets tempts to keeps playing gambling. If we already knows that keeps playing gambling can cause us lose more money, we must avoids that and will quit gambling immediately before the temptations becomes bigger.

As I said in my last post, before people decide to play, they need to do a lot of research about the casinos and games they want to play and they also need to research how they can know if the game they want to play is provably fair, there are many sites that have good articles on the subject of provably fair and why people need to care about it, but here I will post just 2 articles that I think are good on this subject:


source: https://www.nsoft.com/news/provably-fair

It is very important that people know what is in this article, then people need to be aware that if they place sports bets, when they lose a bet, it was a fair defeat and without cheating. because there is no way for the bookmaker to cheat customers. Therefore, when people have this information, they play and accept defeat when they lose and do not complain about the casino or betting house. but there are scenarios in which people were recommended by a friend or relative to get involved in gambling and when these people who were recommended by their friends or relatives lose everything, they keep accusing their friends or relatives of being to blame for the losses they suffered. . People always try to blame someone else for their own mistakes

These guys are addicted to the sunk cost fallacy and win thrills. Primal, animalistic behaviour. In essence, gambling is risk management, and these guys are lousy at it. They delude themselves into thinking they're playing chance and experience. Luck is random chaos, and rigged games encourage you to lose. They should concentrate on odds and numbers. Gambling is like that. You can't chase losses, you gotta understand the game and know when to walk away. This isn't just about gambling, it's about life. People stay in poor relationships and jobs because they're too invested. Same dang thing. Breaking free requires discipline and focus.

When a person is addicted to drugs, he forgets the knowledge of good and bad. And gambling is such a terrible addiction. People always have a bit more interest in anything taboo. Gambling is the game of the dark kingdom. And no one can ever prosper in the dark kingdom. Dark Amanisha's day ends one day. At the end of the day, the accounts are empty. And this idle gambler destroys himself as well as his family.

Your friend is right and that's what most gamblers practice. In real sense, it's not suppose to be that because that's practically lose chasing and every gambler know what chasing lose can do. Losing is not supposed to be a trap to gamble more in order to recover the lost money, you'll end losing more money if you try to gamble more to recover your loses. Losing in gambling simply means that you could lose everything and you should gamble responsibly, not a motivation to gamble more. Gambling is interesting when you are doing it for fun and entertainment and not when you have a mission to achieve and expect to double the money.


Winning in every gambling actually depends on series of factors but regardless, luck can not be separated from it. Some gambling are strictly luck based and does not require single experience. Experience is very necessary in every game but it is actually not a determinant for winning but luck does. However, despite that luck plays an important role in winning, it's not a good idea to do random betting without a careful study because both experience and luck work hand in hand to secure you a win.

A casino company will never operate at a loss. Before gambling, never forget that the casino systems you are gambling in are designed in such a way that their profits remain and the results are more in favor of the casino. While playing casino games you must be a lucky person because luck is very important here as the systems are designed in their own way and the result is definitely nothing but luck. I always say that if you are gambling make sure you choose a gambling category that requires you to have some skill in gambling. If a gambler gambles based on his own skill, he can never gamble and say that he lost because luck was not on his side. For example, a sports bettor who plays must bet on sports based on his skill. Because if you don't know about different teams, you can't bet about sports.

Well, addicted people barely feel sad or anything, they just don't realize anything, all they do is keep gambling and when they lose everything, they immediately start looking for more money that they can use for their gambling activities.

Those who are not addicted to gambling would know that they can't earn money constantly from gambling and even if they win once, it doesn't mean that they will keep winning again and again. If a gambler doesn't know this when they are getting into gambling, they will tend to become addicted to it very soon because they will keep gambling even after winning which isn't a recommended practice for any gambler.

Only gamblers with no prior experience try to recover their losses.

Well, concerning this particular topic, your friend may not be too far from the truth,  and this is because, people are actually different in several ways, and I can't deny that there are people who definitely will get hooked to gambling because of their loses, while there are others who actually get hooked to gambling based on their winnings.

Like myself for example, I can never be hooked to gambling based on my loses, in fact, loses are a turn off for me, that is, if I am playing a game and I keep losing, I easily will get tired of playing that game, and if after some time, I still can not win, I will completely lose interest and stop playing totally, this also applies to gambling.
But however, just as you have said, some gamblers will sure get hooked to playing a game they keep losing on, and this due to their strong determination and desperation to win, and most of the time, this not only draws such people into more loses, but it also leads them to becoming addicted to the game.

Casino algorithm are already set up in a way whereby a gamblers winning totally depends on luck, and sometimes, for most of this casino, that luck is made to be controlled by the casino's algorithm, which simply means that the casino algorithm decides when a player wins and when he or she does not, but this is not a fair game on the players, as I believe that this algorithm will naturally be setup to favor the casino more, over the players.

Gambling is a business activity so trusting those gambling sites will only make you fall on their traps. The reason why I do my own gambling predictions or analysis because I have more confidence in myself rather than relying on casinos algorithms and still end up with their highest advantage to win and own our funds.

However, trusting some gambling casinos isn’t actually bad as long as you very it first through your own analysis and weigh things properly, and that’s where you’ll decide if you want to take their side or stick to what you think is right for you.

The knowledge is crucial, at least doing things like reading, analyzing and team review could help when placing money on sport games, yet it has no guarantee of winning the game. These skills as you mentioned helps a long way in teaching the player ways to gamble, it also keeps the gambler ahead of people who don't do any of these things, still doesn't mean the other players wouldn't win because they didn't analyse their bets.

Moreover, harnessing skills from gambling may include but not limited to money management, time limitations for slot players, and emotional self control. These things helps a gambler in all walks of life. Not just in the casino. That's a better knowledge from gambling for a person who is not interested in knowing about sports analysis. He'd be able to control how he wagers money into gambling. This will also put the player away from getting compulsive or toyed around with losses; playing more for the sake of losses. However, it's right that losing makes a player to go for more, yet with the control in place, the player wouldn't do that for a long period.

Yes it is possible but I am sure that someone who has entered the phase of their addiction will certainly experience various pressures in his life, especially in terms of finance because as we know that usually an addicted gambler certainly tends to always act excessively which makes the potential for financial problems more likely.

On the other hand, I agree with you that gambling addiction always occurs because the gamblers do not have a correct understanding of how gambling actually is, or the point is that someone who only sees gambling as a place to earn then it is a mindset and point of view that will ultimately lead them to addiction faster without realizing it, and you have explained that someone who has a correct understanding of gambling will certainly not do various things that make no sense, such as stopping when you have managed to win by immediately cashing out because you know that gambling is not just about the chances of winning but also has the possibility of defeat that can happen at any time.

It is true that the casino industry almost never experiences losses, because everything is arranged in such a way that the end result is always in favor of the house, so the house always benefits.

But here I don't really understand how to be a lucky person, because luck is beyond our control and we can never be sure when luck will come to us.

In gambling, losing is something we will definitely get, while winning is only a possibility, and it also depends on whether we are skilled enough at gambling. and I agree with what you say, that in gambling we must choose the type of gambling that suits our abilities and skills, because by doing this we can increase our chances of winning and provide a better gambling or betting experience. However, behind all of that there is something more important than just chasing victory that is not certain to be obtained, namely limiting the losses we experience. The way to do this is to always make sure that whenever you gamble, it is within reasonable limits, bet only with the amount of money that you are prepared to lose, and gamble only in the free time that you have.

There is advice that says that stop gambling if it has made things from bad to worse, because in fact there will be no more pleasure in it, there will only be mental stress and financial difficulties which will ultimately make a person stressed. Anyone can experience gambling addiction, and of course this is influenced by how much time and money is spent gambling. It's true, that many people don't understand the purpose of gambling well, they sometimes rely on gambling games to make a profit, even though that is very wrong.

In some cases, as a result of gambling addiction, many people ask friends for loans, and pay them back when they get payday, or if they are lucky they win gambling on the same day. If the level of addiction has reached that level, in my opinion you should stop immediately, before you have problems with friendships and problems with work. However, there are also many people who are brave enough to take risks, in order to continue gambling regularly every day.

That's an impact to people who addicted to drugs and will makes his lives ruins and difficult to cure it. That will be more worst if that people becomes addicted to gambling and will makes them can't thinks clear about what happens to them but they will still addicted to drugs and gambling. When someone lose in gambling, he must not thinks to keeps playing gambling because that can makes his loses becomes bigger. When he had two addiction in his lives, his lives will ruins faster without he can realizes and that will also impact to his family and in the end, it's difficult to fix everything. If he can't realizes what's happens to him, he will not have a chance to cure his addiction and even he can gets deeper in gambling and drugs. That situation will becomes worst when all of his family abandon him and lets him alone.

Those who addicted can't feels anything about what happens to him because he is too busy with his addiction. He will not thinks about his family and even himself because his focus is change into his addiction. Nothing will be important to him excepts his addiction so suggestion from his family will not makes him realizes with his condition. He will lose much money and even his family's money will be used for playing gambling and left his family without any money.

That's why when someone lose gambling, he must control himself not to keeps playing gambling instead to quit gambling and leave the casino immediately to stay away from the temptations of gambling. A wise gambler will knows that he doesn't have to playing gambling anymore, especially if he already lose some money. He will not wants to see his lose becomes bigger so he will decides to stop playing gambling.

Quitting is always the best advice if we talk about gambling, but the problem is that most of them are always unable to accept the fact of losing or losing which makes them feel emotional and when this scenario really happens then obviously gambling will no longer feel fun but the atmosphere of gambling in each session will only be filled with pressure and tension due to defeat along with the emergence of problems in their finances due to treating gambling in the wrong way or tend to overdo it.

On the other hand, yes it is true as you say that if someone has entered the addiction phase then yes usually they will always make loans as the best alternative to fulfill their gambling desires and usually the closest people will be their target to borrow money and pay it when they are payday, and I also have one friend who is in this situation which is sadly sometimes he does not get a share of the salary he earns because most of his salary is only to pay his debts. and at first glance it is clear that I am also right - the closest people will be their target to borrow money and pay it when they are payday, And at first glance obviously I also really feel sorry for him and I also often give advice that reduce involvement in gambling, but he is really difficult to advise, and he is one of the typical people who are easily provoked so that when for example he loses $10 then he usually dares to spend $100 or even more just to catch up with the $10 loss and when he is unlucky then obviously the amount of defeat is much greater, so this is why it is always prohibited to catch up with gambling losses.

I say that experience is very good in any job in the world, because no one wants to give Training in a job, but in casino gambling it is something else, as I said before , you can have been playing for 20 years and the person if not Improvement continues to fall into the same Mistakes and its success rate will always be linear , because even so with its experience it continues to give the same results or worse , so when one has that success rate you have to do Something to change it, there is something that is going wrong, well at least I would do it that way, so experience in the game Sometimes helps when you Know how to use it, that's the key.

He is pertaining to the reliability of the casino games that they will not cheat against users when he said “do you trust gambling algorithm”. I think you are describing a casino suggested betting patterns or given odds which is not the gambling algorithm in subject here.

Most of the casino is closed source which means there’s no way to verify whether their games is fair or not. That’s why we are only relying to trust on companies by choosing reputable casino to ensure that they will not jeopardize their integrity since they are already having profit with simple house edge.

This is something that people should remember, an addiction is something that can happen to anyone no matter who you are, so we must keep our eyes open whenever we engage in an activity that may have a reputation of producing those kind of outcomes with some regularity, and while I am sure the rate of gambling addiction is probably very low, as if we compare its probabilities of producing those outcomes to the odds of alcohol, tobacco or drugs to produce them, then we will find out those probabilities are way lower, but it is important to still be careful, as this will ensure you never have to go through such difficult experiences.

Something that we must always avoid at all costs is not to fall into diction, because addiction is the worst thing that a person can suffer, that is why before entering a casino I think that each one should know their interests very well, both on an emotional level. as economical. , it is known that when it comes to money you cannot exceed it, and the most important thing is that the house edge is something that cannot be forgotten, the house edge is something that the player will always fight for, yes. In some cases you can win and in others you can lose a lot and that always has to be considered, that is why in this case it is considered that each of us must be very responsible when playing, I believe that in games there are no cheats Only the house edge guarantees your winnings.

Quitting is without a doubt the best thing an addicted gambler can do but it's easier said than done because it's extremely difficult for an addicted gambler to stop gambling because they can't do it, the urge to gamble for them is stronger than their ability to think about quitting. Besides, most addicted gamblers don't acknowledge the fact that they are addicted to gambling and that they are ruining their lives with it because they lose the ability to think critically about things other than gambling after some time of the addiction.

A gambling addict can only stop gambling and get away from it if they get help from someone else like a friend or a family member, and this can only be possible if they acknowledge the fact that they are addicted and they need help, otherwise, it is not possible to force them to stop gambling.

If we plan to gamble then we should plan gambling toys that way. If we consider gambling as a normal game then we will be wrong because gambling is not normal like other normal games because if something goes wrong here all the money can be lost. I prefer to rely on my own skill in gambling rather than relying on direct luck. As you said if we bet on sports we must bet on those games that we have an idea about. Like I like to bet on football because I know enough about the game of football and I know enough about each team and player of the club and national team, if I bet on a football match then I must think enough and then make the bet. Since I will think and plan several times before betting on football, the results will definitely be more likely to be in my favor. If you rely on your own skill, if nothing untoward happens in the match, then skill will surely win.

To answer your question, I will say that checking the algorithm on a gambling site and hoping to beat it is the same as trying to paint the sky. Algorithms are created for this purpose so that owners earn money. They are built in such a way that in the end gaming casinos (or whatever) remain in the black. It doesn’t matter what algorithm you use, if it’s an online casino or something like that, then in the end the betting will remain in the black.
Regarding your friend, who borrowed money to close his losses, I believe that sooner or later he may have problems. With this strategy, gambling can cause him headaches. You can't use money to gamble that you can't afford to lose. It is especially forbidden to take out loans, borrow money for this, or use money that needs to be paid for bills.
Good luck to you and your friends.

Gambling is more than throwing chips and hoping for a miracle. A calculated dance with probability and human nature. Of course, skill matters, especially in sports betting, where knowledge is everything. No matter how skilled you are, luck is always around. If a star player gets hurt, a ref makes a terrible call, or a freak storm hits, your "sure thing" bet is gone. Gambling is like that. Skill can help, but it's still luck. Accept the crazy ride, manage your risk, and don't rely on skill alone. Know the odds, set limits, and realize it's a gamble. It's the truth

I don't think gamblers will put their money where they don't understand how to play the game. Usually they see the game first how to win in the game and usually because they are curious they want to try it and seek their luck in this newest game. Winning or losing is not a trap for them, they have shown their abilities but luck is not on their side. Their addiction is usually very difficult to get rid of. The feeling of wanting to chase past defeats is much greater than wanting to stop.

And I will also say that until whenever you or anyone will never be able to find out about what algorithms are applied by the casino to each game they provide, because surely they will guard it very tightly, because obviously if the gamblers know about the algorithms or formulas applied by the casino then obviously it is likely that the casino will experience a lot of losses, and so far I have never heard of this incident, meaning that it can be concluded that the casino applies algorithms that can never be known by gamblers except the casino itself.

Another thing is that I also believe that someone who always tries to chase losses in gambling will eventually suffer a lot of problems like what you said and it's true because I think it's a common thing that many gamblers have experienced many downturns when trying to carry out the idea to achieve recovery, and the downturn can be even more tragic when the money you use to chase losses is money borrowed.

In a way, it is. Gambling is a trap for addict players who cannot control their urge to gambling frequently.
It becomes a trap because the gambler loses all what he has got in the process of recovering losses.
It's not necessarily the same for others. It's a fun thing and a good entertainment for many people.
So it becomes subjective as the same thing might be good for one and bad for the other.

If a star player is injured and leaves the field, then the remaining 10 players will remain in that team to perform and a player will be brought into the field instead of that star player. I would certainly not be wrong if I bring Real Madrid as an example here.
Suppose a weak team is playing against real madrid and in that game one of the important players of real madrid gets injured and leaves the field in the middle of the game then do you think real madrid can lose against that weak team. I don't think Real Madrid will lose against that weak side because if one important player is out due to injury then 10 other important players will play in their team as well as a substitute player and they will definitely not let their team lose. During the match we can see some undesired wrong decisions by the referee but a referee does not always give wrong decisions and strong teams must have the ability to defend even if there are undesired wrong decisions. So I would say it is more important to focus on your own skills rather than depending on luck.

We must be careful when playing gambling because we knows that gambling can tempts gamblers to keeps playing gambling and will not thinks to breaks for a while. Gamblers will not realizes that they already make a mistakes because they are having fun in gambling and spends much money.
But when gamblers can treats gambling as well, they don't have to worry with the trap because they can sees that playing gambling too long can makes them loses their money. They will stays alert with the temptations that they see in many places and always trying to control themselves.
After all, we must control ourselves and always remember that gambling is just for fun. We can't use gambling more than that.

People arent stupid. They wont waste money on unwanted items. The unknown, testing their talents, and sometimes luck are what makes it exciting. Sometimes they win! People dont always lose. The boundary between fun and addiction is smaller than you believe. Wins can be highly addicting since the brain craves rewards. Its brain structure, not intelligence. Like a powerful undercurrent, it pulls you in. There's no shame in confessing when its too much. All of us have vices, but we must know when to stop. Help is available for the unable. People, admitting you need help is brave.

The most results that gamblers will get upon chasing losses won't be good, we can be the living proof of it because whenever we chase our losses, nothing comes good out of it.

I agree because the problem might be bigger than that when a gambler develops that thought of chasing losses. And not just borrowing money but even selling important things that they're able to buy through saving and hard work.

Each person is really that different when it comes to things and the decisions that they are making, whether they would really be that stopping on the moment they do lose money or they would really be that tending to continue just because they are aiming for some big wins or trying out to chase their loses? On the moment that you are losing then it would be that a common human being nature that you would really be tending to break even. This is something that cant be avoided because even if you do say that you are just that playing for fun but deep inside you would really be that basically be still trying out to be a winner.

This is something that what makes this industry becomes that profitable due to the fact that people or gamblers would really be tending up to chase into something which we know
that it could potentially be losing up even more or simply not really worth on doing so.

I strongly believe there is no way possible for anyone to actually track and successfully get a whole of the algorithm that casino used for setting the games because if that's possible then that would mean that gamblers can easily win this casino's out of business which is never actually going to be possible because the whole system itself was built and designed in order for you as the gambler to lose then they make profit although there are times when someone or even me can get Lucky and win something big in the casino but that too doesn't solidify and guarantee that they are ways to make this a positive everytime.

So the best one can do is actually to wager the little he can and enjoy the betting rather than making it a possibility that you must win because that's only going to get you more trapped and even probably lose more money.

Considering that it has an advantage in the house, the more we gamble online, the more likely we are to lose. The advantage of the casino is not that high, of course it varies depending on the casino, but I know it is low. The important thing is that you spend a lot of time here, even a small percentage has a high probability of winning, which becomes a dead end for those who spend a long time.

Usually, when you lose, it's emotional and you want to get back what you lost, but that only puts you in a worse situation. Sometimes it is best to stop when you lose, but when you don't know how to stop, you start taking loans left and right.

That's right, I also experience that, but after learning from my mistakes and realizing that gambling is not all about winning, I realize that I should be more realistic a build a good bankroll that is intended to last a long period. Gambling is only risky and someone might loss control if it's not properly planned, see that losses coming as it's inevitable and then learn how to handle the feeling so you'll not be stress.

When you are gambling and you think this  one bet you make is a sure win, or you are too confident, that will likely result to big losses as you might not be able to accept the outcome and you'll be more aggressive to bet more than you can already afford, believe me I've been there that's why I try to find the solution to control myself.

First of all, I'd like to give out some piece of advice to  him through you; Tell him that nobody has ever made a good outcome from refusing to listen and learn. Secondly, there are a whole lot of things that you can't do without being oriented.

I'm wondering why your circle of friends would wanna lend him money, when they know he's only gonna gamble with it... How are they intending to get a refund?
The so-called algorithms were created by the casinos themselves... Are you aware of this?.. It's better to make your speculations and wager at that - if it's cuts, better!

The way and manners we are gambling is very important so we don't keep playing games when we don't have any winnings. Those who are gambling need to be wise and make good decisions that will be helpful and will not allow them to keep losing frequently without taking decisions that will be very useful to limit the way they gamble and how frequently they do it. Gambling loses are a big trap to many gamblers they are not very conscious on the way they are gambling. We can always gamble at every pace but being disciplined is one thing that we need to make sure that we are very careful of every steps we take to make this money.

You are right, mate. As we've said a couple of times, addiction should be avoided at all costs because it is worse than one can imagine. Take, for example, a man who took gambling more seriously than paying for the school fees of his kids, someone who preferred gambling over the needs of his family, someone who prefers gambling over his loved ones, etc. 

I read a headline where a man was arrested somewhere outside the country. The reason for the arrest was because he left his little kids alone in the house and went to gamble at a casino far from his house. It's terrible how gambling addiction has treated some people. 

I believe gamblers keep playing after they lose money, because they think it was just a streak of bad luck they had, so they start a new game hoping to be luckier this time. However, they just ignore the house edge impact over their gambling results on long run. They see this as solely about being lucky or unlucky, although in fact we know it's not only about luck, but also mathematics, as the house has a slight advantage of 1%-2% on every games, which inevitably makes gamblers lose money the more they play.

Some may consider it a trap, and that is understood, but at same time we can't deny it's public information, so every gamblers could be aware about it if they read the mechanics of the casinos before depositing and playing.

The casinos arent managed by fools. They have industry experts designing these games. To believe you can outsmart them with an algorithm is absurd. No doubt, I enjoy a challenge. Gambling is about understanding the game, not rigging it.

No strategy wins every time. But thats its charm! Unpredictability and excitement keep us coming back. Instead of searching for an algorithm, enjoy the moment. Practice, play intelligently, and who knows? Maybe you'll win the jackpot. Maybe you dont, but its not always about winning. Traveling, having fun, and telling stories are important.

I don't think so that gambling losses are traps to gambling more It's all about responsibility and self-control of that gambler if that gambler can't have control on this emotional and if he chasing for win then you can say losses are traps to those irresponsible gamblers. And I will say not only the losses are trap for them wins are also gonna be trap for them because if they have don't control on their emotions and mind wins can make them greedy and fall in more losses.
And taking about their algorithms they buy from the software companies or made by their own programmers have to be on well certificate or open source.

It's not a trap, but it just a psychology that make your friend to try new game and he think the new game has higher chance to win. The reality when you keep losing in the current game, it doesn't mean you will not hit huge multipliers and you could suffer lose streak in new game.

At least moving to new game is nothing wrong, but there are still many stupid gamblers choose to create new account and say their old account have low luck, the thing is many casinos forbid of multiple accounts usage.

      -    I agree with your friend when he said that gambling is really a trap, because if others have lost a lot by gambling, they will not allow it to be recovered, so they will really come back to recover what they lost. 

Until now, there are still many gamblers who have that habit, even though they know they always lose when they play gambling, until the amount they lose just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
And I think this is already like a sick for the gamblers, isn't?

In general, losing in gambling is a trap for everyone, no one is excluded. However, after experiencing defeat, there are those who stop not to do it again and there are also those who continue by wanting to bet again in a larger amount or what is often called chasing defeat. This means that in gambling, the perspective of every defeat is to teach you to stop or keep going. Sometimes I take a break, as I did a few days ago, closing my casino account for a period of 2 to 3 months with the intention of unwinding for a full season of football betting. I want to try to reflect on myself, go out to breathe the cool mountain air, and enjoy the holiday. There is a positive side that we will be on holiday for quite a long time until next season starts.

Seriously a gambler is not meant to think his predictions are always right because these are the mistakes that causes losses for a gambler. In the game of money it is never easy to earn it. Hence, in gambling, however, winning is not also simple for players. Winning, in all aspects of life, is also very difficult to get. Gamblers need to get used to the ways the game works. Just like on your experience where you learnt from your mistakes.

Many other players may not be able to handle such controls as you did. That's why a lot of gamblers fail to realize how losses is the trap that awakes gamblers to make more mistakes. Terrible ones at that. When I lose money, definitely I'd try again, but not on a regular base as most player who don't remember they've been playing for a long time due to losses. Indeed, it's a trap, and when a person falls into one it's his duty to plan his ways out.

On the other hand I will not conclude that chasing losses in gambling will never work, because everyone will always have a situation where they are faced with luck in themselves, in the sense that there is a possibility that when in the stage of chasing losses their luck comes at the right time which could be that they get a very large win that makes them succeed in achieving recovery, although it rarely happens but the possibility will still remain, but the problem is that most of the gamblers who managed to reach the situation wasted the situation instead, or in the sense that instead of securing the amount of winnings that managed to make them recover but most of them continue the game which means they cannot ignore the greed in themselves and when it turns out that in the next session the results are not appropriate then this is where the problem will continue where the amount of their losses is getting bigger and they get more emotional when faced with the situation, so this is another reason why chasing losses is always not recommended.

Chasing losses is always a bad idea that is always forbidden by everyone, and when someone chases losses using borrowed money then it is clear as I said above that the problem will be bigger when everything is not what we expected, and the biggest problem is the possibility that someone can get into debt, because I am not sure that they will only take a loan once, and also because in some cases the loan is always used as an alternative by gamblers to fund their gambling habits, they don't think about how they're going to pay it back and it's because of this kind of thinking that they end up having debt problems where a lot of loan services are charging them by coming to their house which is a situation that will continue if you don't pay all your debts immediately and obviously what this means is that gambling with borrowed money will eventually make our lives full of unusual tensions and pressures.

True. But the way I see chasing of losses is different from your view, a gambler cam decide to chase loss which I see as gambling again after a loss is incurred as far as his limit for that day or money allocated is not exhausted. I do not see that as chasing loss, but when your money is finished or you have reach your limit still you breach it then I can say a gambler is chasing a loss, simply gambling to recover is not a problem and I don't see any possible damage there.

The truth remains, self discipline, moderation and Money Management over everything when it comes to gambling.

If you have a gamble budget for the day and you gamble without winning any of the game till you exhaust your gamble budget for that day, does not mean that you are chasing your losses because you are discipline enough to have a gamble budget and you will not go beyond it, no matter the losses you incur. Loss chasing refers to gamblers who does not have any gambling budget, but rather gbke more than the amount that they can afford to lose. Since it is the amount that they cannot afford to lose, this will trigger their emotion and they will want to gamble more believing that they can win back what the have lost.

It is bad to chase your losses and the fact remains that you cannot recover what you have lost, this is the wrong mindset that some gamblers have. The reason why I said so is because if you think you can recover your losses, it will trigger you to continue gambling even when you have exhausted your gambke budget. This will lead to lack of self control and addiction because you will be gambling whenever you think you can recover your losses.

Chasing losses can happen in two ways. The first one, which you have explained, is when the gambler has spent all the money intended to be used for that day and goes ahead to add more deposits so they can continue gambling if they can win back what has been lost. 

The second one, which I think happens to some gamblers, is the foolhardy gambling pattern. From the beginning, the gambler can be cool and managing his bankroll effectively, but because they have encountered several losses, they get upset and want to take a break at that moment, but yet they are not convinced to stop; they feel that if they leave, that was when their luck might have come, and with such a mindset, they will keep gambling revengefully; they don't apply good bankroll management again; they are just 100%submissive to luck at that moment. If you ask them why, they would say they have tried their best to be cool, but they didn't win, so let them try something crazy. 

On the moment you do make yourself bust all the capital or bankroll you do have on that particular day and didnt able to make out some other deposit then this do simply means that you do have that proper
control towards yourself and with your emotion on which this is really that a common that you might be able to changed up your mindset on the moment that you would be experiencing loses.
You would really be having that kind of hard time on the moment that you would be trying out to stop on the moment you've find yourself having that urge on playing more because you are trying to chase up your loses. Just like been said by others is that on the moment that you had find yourself having that kind of approach and mindset then it would really be that so hard on trying out to sustain yourself
and might be depositing even more.

Yes, you are right, losing is a trap for someone who gambles, not just addicts, even those who are not addicted feel lured into making deposits and chasing their losses, and over time it can also lead to gambling addiction, and usually if they are lured into continuing to gamble, they we will increasingly lose control and lose the finances we have, therefore we should not easily get trapped if we have experienced defeat, it is better to stop gambling when the initial capital has run out and not try to chase these losses and stop for a while to calm our minds.

People who experience defeat are usually filled with emotions and find it difficult to control themselves and they are easily caught in the trap of continuing to play. It is indeed difficult to control ourselves when we have experienced a big loss, therefore before deciding to gamble, it is better for us to prepare ourselves mentally. be ready to face defeat that will occur so don't just think about winning but also think about the risks faced so that we remain controlled so as not to do things that are more detrimental because we are too chasing defeat.

Gamblers should think about the money they use for gambling as already lost, after all if you buy a video game, you do not really try to find ways to recover your money from the publisher if you liked it, you are just happy with what you got and enjoy your time playing the video game that you bought, and people should do the same with gambling, this way by considering that money as gone already, they will not be tempted to chase their losses, which is one of the more important factors which could lead a person towards addiction.

Its not really that a trap if you do really just that simply make yourself not to fall out with that kind of emotion on which you would really be letting yourself that out of control specially on spending up your money
on gambling because if you are really just that sensible on the actions that you are making then you wont really be finding any problems even if you do deal up with gambling. Gambling should really be just that for fun and entertaintment.The only issue for most people is that they do really lost control at the moment that they do lose money. If you arent that good on handling your emotions then most likely this would really be ending up on being a trap on which this could really that urge you to play even more. This is why gambling business is really that profitable into its owners because gamblers are really that trying out to break even on what they do have lost.

Chasing up loses is never been that good and at the moment you do find yourself on such condition then consider yourself to be that gradually addicted with gambling on which this isnt something good
or something that will really be that recommended. Dont make yourself comes into a point that you would be losing on everything. Moderation and control would be the key
so that in the end you wont be finding or making any problems in towards your finances.

All I can is that it's easier said that done. It's easy to say to a desperate gambler not to chase after his loses and it's even more easier to tell him to stop gambling but the real deal is that, is he even going to give you a listening ear. Sometimes gambler get so trapped in the act that they totally forget whatever they are doing even if what or where they are going is completely showing and reeking of red flag, they find it hard to stop untill they have successfully seen the end result to their actions and that's why my only advice is that people should just don't regret whatever actions they take when gambling because it's all part of the process rather learn how to know when things are getting all spoilt for you @losing streak.

But that's the thing right, if you gamble and keep chasing losses then it becomes a habit which eventually turns out into addiction.
Once a gambler gets addicted then gambling becomes a trap for him as I have mentioned in my previous post.
I find it applicable only to those people who cannot control their emotions in gambling and run over budget towards gambling.

One of the things that we must have before carrying out any gambling or sports betting activity is that we must not leave aside what is important to us, such as our family and especially our children, what that person did was a great irresponsibility, I believe that in any country what he did is punishable by law, what he did is a fiasco, I would never in my life leave my children alone, irresponsibility is something that we should not admit, so in this aspect we must be consistent with our actions, obviously a person who has left their children stranded like this and a person who cannot have guardianship of them, addiction makes people do crazy things.

What you do with money when you’re a gambling addict is pretty much definitive in itself. But when you’re not addicted to gambling? It can definitely be a spectrum, and highly dependent upon your general vibe during the moment you lost the money.

As for myself I might actually just leave it at that, I have a threshold per se of how much money I’d be willing to lose willy-nilly, and losing that much with me being aware of it? I might just actually give myself some stern talking to lol.

If it’s smaller than that the high-rolling gambler in me will prevail. Might even throw a little encouragement on myself just so I continue gambling lol.


In any case it’s definitely a spectrum for me, but for people who already dug their own graves, it’s something else.

With my own experience, the more you lose to gambling and try to recover the losses you have made over the past, the harder it will appear to be. You will keep on losing and win a few, and the losses you record will continue to increase, which will reduce your chances of recovering the money to the minimum level.

Those who don't understand that chasing their losses will only end up incurring more losses to themselves.
 
The best I always do if I find myself losing much to the game is to take a break and never recover those lost funds in my mind. I just gamble whenever I see reason to, and if I win, I take it as my profit for the day without using my previous losses to condemn what could have given me joy.

This could be true to ignorant gamblers. Why would someone wants to chase their losses when it is obvious that gambling is risky and when we are attempting to chase loses, we could end up losing more depending on the actual bet and the pattern used to bet. Gamblers are meant to be responsible and be wise when taking some certain decisions. For us to keep making money, we can always endeavor to take risk that we can afford to take so that we are not going to be losing in betting. Gambling is more of luck so we don't need to think that we can be making profits every time when we don't have the luck or the right strategy.

All I know is chasing loses is bad and can result to lose of more funds, it should be controlled and its not right you use pressure from loses to try to gain your money back cause your emotions are not right for you to make right decisions.

Well, the privacy thing is already something that is discussed in "" (quotes) because things in all the casinos are already requiring KYC, and for me that is the end of privacy, in addition to the exchanges, most do not have monero and it is the currency that gives the most privacy and anonymity, personally I am a person who will always not doubt crypto technology, Bitcoin for me is the best invention of man, because it is the best alternative economy that could have been created, there is no other, and it is something that has helped many, however, everything that is done well, well we cannot deny it, but privacy and anonymity are already biased.

That is the justification for most cases so that they'll be pushing themselves to gamble some more to have that double purpose.

First, is to recover their losses.

Second, to keep the fun going. Gambling is fun but when it's too much, you have to deal with the consequences and losing isn't fun and that's why you have to control yourself in that regard.

Otherwise, losing more money is one of your considerations as you do it but I guess no one wants to lose forever and the cycle repeats back if you can't notice it.

My brother, you are right; gambling addiction can actually make people do crazy things. I was really surprised and annoyed when I read that story. What was just going through my mind was, "What if the kind had harmed themselves?"" We all know how a child can be when they are playing; if there is no attention from a guardian, they can accidentally injure themselves. I really cannot exhibit such an attitude around my kids.

In my country, there was a woman who lost her child to a domestic accident. The child ingested a drug, and it was an overdose, so even before they could rush the child to the hospital, he had already given up the ghost. This is something that can happen when parents shift their attention away from their children, and if a gambler is exhibiting such an attitude, it can cause harm to the children. 

One of the reasons why chasing losses cannot always be justified is because gambling does not depend on anything, and also the results in each session carried out by gamblers will always be different, or in the sense that if, for example, now you lose, it does not mean that in the next session you will lose. will be able to win with the intention of pursuing these losses, or simply in different gambling times the results will be different at the end of the session, and I think that is a natural thing when we talk about gambling.

Because after all this is what is called an activity that does not have any certainty or guarantee to produce victory at the end of the session, meaning that victory is nothing more than a "possibility" and defeat is part of the certainty that will continue to lurk, on the other hand I am not saying that every time if you chase losses then you will always lose, because basically if you are lucky then you will also win, but if this idea is carried out in the long term then that will be a disaster that makes them experience a greater number of losses.

3rd is to make money.

These 3 would really be the main reasons on why gamblers do really pushout their limit and plays gamblign no matter what because of those conditions on which it cant really be denied that there would really be that kind of persistence at the moment that you do have that kind of mindset specially on the moment that you are chasing up your loses on which this is something that motivates you to play plus having those kind of hopes on winning big then it would really be adding up the overall feelings that you do have on which this is something that you should really be that careful or something that you would really be needing up to have that control.

At the moment that you cant be able to resist such thing then the moment that you would really be consider on stopping is on the moment that you would be able to experience those huge loses on which
this has been a typical thing to happen. Regrets do always come at the end and it would really be better that you should really know on what you are doing if you dont like that kind of
disastrous condition.

All gamblers know about the 2 things you mentioned above, but unfortunately they don't prepare anticipatory steps to avoid gambling addiction, they are emotionally affected in gambling sessions because they don't get the expected wins. This defeat will have an impact on one of the factors above, they bet to recover their losses or they continue to gamble just for fun without setting a financial limit for gambling.

I think privacy is denied for third party programs attached to the technology. Bitcoin is quite decentralized and should be seen as a technology that allows privacy. The government capitalize on centralized exchanges to regulate how citizens spend their funds and open traces back to them. The problem is also about the hacks and scams relating to those cex which occured frequently. Allowing such things to go untracked leaves people losing out money oftentimes. Gaining full privacy through the technology requires participating fully in the Bitcoin technology as a developer. In terms of gambling platforms, I don't think they'll be a better means of gambling privately without KYC.

Well, personally, if I am asked, I did say that for gamblers who don't earn as much income, there isn't even a need to set financial limit to their gambling, since naturally, this limit is already set by the limited amount of money they earn from what ever they do for a living.

Using myself as an example now, I've never had any need of setting financial limit to my gambling activitiea because I do not make that much money from my source of income, and when the money comes, by the time I remove money for very important things, amount remaining won't even be enough for me to gamble with as I really want to.
So, in the end, we discover that becoming a gambling addicts, or losing too much money in gambling is not really about setting financial limit to the gaming activities, it's more about the mentality or mental state of the gambler.

There are people who have been gambling for several years now without any financial limit, and yet, they are not addicted, meanwhile today, someone might start gambling for the first time today, and by the next 30 days, he or she is already hooked, can no longer go a day without gambling.

I believe that one of the reasons why a gambler often violates limits or other precautions in the approach they have to gambling is because they still cannot make themselves firm to follow all the limits they have made before, and also because they are too tempted by the chances of winning in gambling, and usually some excessive actions are often triggered by various motivations that they see such as seeing other people or friends who have won big wins which indirectly they also want the same results. In the end, when it turns out that the results are not appropriate then this is where their control will be tested, and if in the end they enter the addiction phase then that means they are not strong enough to withstand their emotions and curiosity about winning in gambling. In conclusion, even if you have implemented some precautions, you still have the possibility of getting addicted if you do not apply firmness to your self-awareness that gambling is nothing more than a game of “possibility”.

You know that the gamblers that are even aware of avoiding gambling addiction could be the likely ones to contain and become one. That is because emotions that are uncontrollable can be the trigger of that. If you have been gambling and happily enjoying it, you may not even think of it even if the signs are already appearing on you based on your behavior and the activities that you have been all over this time. And with that emotion of feeling that defeat, all you wanna do is to conquer that and don't become a loser and at least recover some of it.

Now, that's where how it starts. It looks like that the fun is there and you are not capable of losing more but even so, you're continuing because you think it's fun and the trap is already on you without noticing it. Even with limiting yourself with such everytime you gamble, that's not going to help you when you are already trapped and addicted. You don't even want to admit that you're already addicted to gambling and you will not tell anybody on how much you have already lost because it's such a shameful thing for most gamblers to discuss about our losses.

All of us are emotionally when it's comes to games that has a staked money. That's why for that reason, we're able to put emotions to each bet that we make.

And sometimes, it's hard to move on with every lose that we get. So, the emotional being of a gambler plays a role why he/she can't move on and instead of having a good day to start, when it's been thought about the most recent losses, you couldn't careless with that.

That triggers us to recover whenever we're convenient but are we mostly successful with that? not everyone does.

Well, to me the simplest way to separate emotions from losses or posible losses is to step down the over-exposure some gamblers have to their favorite games, you know,.the typical phrase repeated even by the staff of the casinos: only gamble what we are willing to lose or can afford to lose. That is one of the messages, I even wonder there are willing to say so by some laws in certain countries or jurisdictions.
On the other hand you have casinos and bookies advertising those big winners who hit the jackpot or those lotteries giving a giant check to a new billionaire who managed to get the numbers right, all out of pure luck.
Before reaching dominance over our own feelings while gambling, first we have to set your objective straight (assuming one can even consider other than having fun) and then act on it by using a wager which goes with that level of comfort we want to keep.
It is more difficult to reach a deal with oneself if the terms are not even clear from the beginning. don't you think?

I agree, don't overexpose yourself if you want to get out of the trap or you don't want to be convinced if ever you're desiring to stop.

There will be a lot of temptations all over the places you visit since it won't be gone asap. But you have to do your thing of avoiding in visiting those places or websites.

With your own initiative, you're helping yourself to contain that trap that is within you. No one is there to save you if you don't help yourself out.

True, everything happens because there is money involved, the fact is that everyone needs money but everyone doesn't like losing, while gambling is always about these two things that can never be separated, you or anyone can win a large amount but we also have to remember the other fact that we can also lose any amount. So I think if you are emotional because you lost then in my opinion it is an action that you should not do, or the point is that you should not be emotional because you lost because it is clear that risk will always be a part of gambling.

Letting go of losing is an action that is really difficult for the majority of gamblers to do, but there are some gamblers who are still fine and do not experience emotions even though they lose, and they are someone who realizes that losing is normal in gambling, because they know that even if they act to chase losses then surely it is quite impossible to achieve.

The trap is undoubtedly the money. This has kept most people in the casino endlessly tapping the slot machine. Lots of time is lost in the process and as it creeps by the energy of the player dwindles rapidly to a lower dimension. Whereby the player wouldn't have a bit of control to decide his moves; stopping or calling it a day. These actions from gamblers has left many to be broken financially. Such traps has nothing to do with the machines or the videos of rolling objects seen on casinos. If a player has staked his money his behavior would be controlled by the results of the game.

Especially when he thinks he missed a quick opportunity of winning one of his gambles. Many a times gamblers exhibit strange behaviors that actually tends to make them look strange in the vicinity they found themselves. So, when gambling, like myself, I tend to get emotional after losing my money. But, lately, I chose to think of it a game and enjoy how it goes. Although, I still feel a bit of the losses, emotionally, yet it doesn't control a bit of my action. It doesn't stop me from actually stopping when I wanted to. It's just a game. Falling for the trap of losing more money and trying to gain it back, doesn't stop it from being a game but this time the player would face more troubles along the line.

Just a random bets mate because I don't trust anything aside from my own decisions
And habit in gambling section ,since gambling online turn into table and served many
Gamblers? I start focusing only here and almost have no time in visiting physical
Casino that I use to play more back then.

            -   This is often still experienced and done by most gamblers here in the crypto space of online casino gambling in this era. I also really noticed that the majority don't notice that they do it most of the time every time they experience a loss.

No matter how many times it happens, they still do it, and that is because of the addiction that has developed in their personality as gambling addicts. And it's hard for them to lose it, especially if they themselves don't want to fight to lose it.

It is true that most gamblers who have experienced a loss will certainly make them curious and this will make them return to betting and it is very unlikely that they will be able to win, if they continue to place bets it will certainly make them addicted to gambling and this will make them addicted to gambling and I agree with you that it is not easy to get rid of the gambling habit if we ourselves do not have the desire to stop.

It is very hard to accept defeat and you'll even hear that from people that thinks you're addicted. They cannot be blamed because if the signs are appearing and you're also seeing that, the problem within you must be solved within you as well.

If losing is an emotional matter to you and you're changing attitude towards that, then you have to change a bit with your approach through it. While it's true that there are gamblers that do not experience bad emotions through it.

The possibility is that they're able to overcome what this kind of gambler is facing right now.

I remember years ago when I was in school, it might of been high school, basically a year or two right before we would become legal drinking and gambling age, there was a seminar about the dangers of gambling, drinking, drugs, etc.

Anyway what I remember very clearly when they talked about gambling was that. If someone goes to a casino and loses a bunch of money, they will go away and most likely won't come back. The scenario where people become addicted are those that go to a casino for the first time and they win, they basically realise its easy money and they will become addicted to it.

I guess you call this beginners luck, they realise its easy making money in a casino and they will keep doing it. Eventually they lose their wins, plus any other money new money they put towards winning it back. So its the opposite of what the OP described.

This isn't true at all. Most games do not depend on experience at all. Luck can be more or less the deciding factor, depending on the game. It can be 100% of the outcome, or just 40%, but usually it's al there's needed to win.
Have you ever heard of this thing called variance. There are books about it. It's basically the way the outcome of the activity changes based on outside factors like the cards you get in a poker game, or when it comes to a football game, whether it's hot or cold that day, or if the ground is completely dry or not.
The way it works, the best poker players lose because they get bad cards, but in 100 games that variance will play a much less significant role because skill will show, but if you play one or 2 games and stop, it's role will be much bigger and actually deciding.

Luck would be always the determining factor if we do speak about gambling whether it would be strategic or something that do talks simply with those casino games on which it would really be always the main thing.
The difference is on the moment that you would really be dealing up with those casino games then there's no such thing about strategy that would really be working because even if you do make out those rolls
without applying any strategy on which if you are lucky then you would really be winning up that moment on which this is really that truth about on doing or playing gambling. Loses would really be that inevitable and this is why you should really be that making yourself having that control because if you cant be able to make yourself having that moderation in speaking about spending money then you would really be having that struggle.

Loses arent traps but rather these things could make you that desperate. Losing is part of the game, it is really just that there individuals who cant really be able to resist and this is where
they would really be that deciding to play further and trying out to recover those loses on which this is really very wrong thing to be done.

There is definitely something important in the words of your my gambling friend. I thought that it is like a funnel of water that sucks us deeper and deeper, and when we do not have enough air and we are ready to do anything to swim out of it, then we do actions that can be destructive, for example, jeopardizing friendships with our friends from - because we borrowed money from them to play. In which almost everything is decided by luck, it’s irresponsible, I understand that, but I couldn’t help myself.

Never play in a sleepy mood because you will lack concentration and you may do things that are not normal for you. The same applies to alcoholic drinks; a separate topic was even created about this. I am convinced that we need to play a little and only with a clear mind and after a good sleep, and also so that we are not distracted by friends who want to have fun or children who need attention. I prefer to do this only separately.

I think that the main goal that a person can get from gambling is to have fun. Many times I heard how people tried to make gambling the main tool for making money, how people tried to mathematically calculate the chances of success and make money on it, but all these attempts, I think, will not lead to anything good in the long run. This is my opinion, maybe there are people who consistently have a good income from gambling, but I personally don’t know such people, most likely they exist, but there are not many of them.
Once gambling stops being fun and becomes a passion or addiction, problems arise.
To answer your question, I would say that for me, entertainment is where I have fun and what I don’t take seriously. This is a very important condition, do not take it seriously. In order not to take your bets seriously, you should only use money that you can mentally part with and that, if lost, will not cause any problems

Whether someone is addicted to gambling or not depends on how someone treats gambling, it depends on whether they can control themselves or not if they accept defeat, someone who is not ready to accept losses usually cannot accept defeat and tends to be trapped in a situation where their mind wants to chase their losses and decide to gamble again and again without realizing that they are losing more and more money due to chasing losses too much, unless at the start they can accept defeat, it is likely that they will not experience deeper losses and prevent gambling addiction, playing gambling continuously can also cause someone to become addicted.

Even though gambling addiction itself is described as a compulsive gambler, they believe they can gamble and win a certain amount of money and usually those addicted to gambling also don't realize that they are becoming addicts because they are trapped in their own minds and can no longer think clearly, therefore we as gamblers really have to respond to gambling wisely and must not get caught up in games that will lead us to destruction if we experience a gambling addiction.

For what I have observed this is the way it works, the people that I have seen getting terrible results on their first gambling experience will hardly gamble ever again, as memories of that session will come back every time they think about gambling again.

But those that obtain positive results, learn that gambling could be a way for them to earn money and do so while obtaining some fun, and such thoughts are often the basis of a behavior which could later get out of control.

Losses can trigger a gambler to play again to recover what he lost with a high hopes to win. This mindset of a gambler who's unable to accept the result is not actually unusual since many gamblers are doing this believing it is the way to get their money back. One of the problem of gamblers who engage themselves in gambling not knowing the risk. Because if you know how gambling works and afraid to lose your money, then you'll not use a fund that you can't live without. Learn to control yourself by setting a limit if you don't want to face a serious problem due to your behavior towards gambling.

If he is a true friend tell him to stop gambling. Right now. And to never gamble again. If it's hard for him to ask for help. Your friend has a risk of ending up in a very bad way. Gambling and loans usually end up with the person having to pay for years what he lost in a binge. Or even worse if he resorts to some private moneylenders.

This is what I know, in the case of users or people who are just getting involved in gambling for the first time, won't they be given a winning percentage in terms of gambling, even though it counts and provides a sense of comfort in gambling, if the user has enjoyed gambling, that's where the losses start because of the site.  It has created a high curiosity effect without us realizing it when gambling, that's why the target currently targeted by gambling is new users, the rest are just people who fill the void, after all, if gambling results in continuous losses, it is impossible, of course the winning percentage will be high.  given that the gambling site definitely exists, the gambling site will realize that if they only provide a small winning percentage, people will definitely leave the site, correct me if I am wrong in my interpretation..

Beginners in gambling will gets winning without they can predict and that can makes them gets deeper slowly or fast without they realizes. That's what happens to beginners that doesn't learn about self controls and they will only lose their money and will traps to other gambling games. Beginners will have a high curiosity about gambling games, especially if they lose much money in their beginning so they will still search the other gambling games that can gives them winning. But they must realizes that playing gambling is just for fun and not for makes money so they must have controls over themselves to avoids the traps in the gambling games. They must responsibility to themselves and always limits their budget and time to playing gambling so they will not gets many problems in gambling.

The fact that your friend took money from their friends shows that they are addicted gamblers unable to control the temptation and hence the rest of your group should be careful. Most gambling circles end up like this, one person taking loans from everyone else and none of them nite the bullet to inform others of these loans at all.

Also I don't agree with the statement of trying luck on casinos. Casinos don't have any fixed "luck" metric. It is random and gambling on one is equivalent to gambling on another because you either lose or win.

I would say one of the reasons why it is difficult for a gambler to accept defeat is because they come with the intention and goal of earning, and as we know that if someone puts the intention and goal to earn something then when it is not achieved then there will be resentment. It's gambling where when you can't achieve the win you want then that means you lose money and that's why they get upset or emotional. So I think it's clear that this is the reason why we always discourage gambling as a way of earning, it doesn't mean you can't win but there is absolutely no certainty and there is absolutely no consistency in terms of winning and when you don't win it means you lose money.

As you say we have to change our approach to gambling, and in order to do that we have to first justify our understanding of gambling, the bottom line is very simple in my opinion which is for you to accept and realize that gambling is an activity that can make you lose money regardless of the chances of winning.

Agree with your opinion, starting a new approach regarding awareness and proper understanding in analyzing gambling activities that there is a very bad risk if done incorrectly and we can also conclude that it is not easy for us to win quickly because we need a long struggle first like the frequent defeats that we will get when playing gambling. Therefore, having good thoughts and awareness really helps us in preventing and minimizing the loss of a lot of money so that we do not feel too great a loss and regret too high.

Of course we are just humans on which you would really be having that kind of trigger that you could really be able to make deposit because the main thing that you do have in mind is to chase up those loses or would really be that tending to chase those winnings and this is something that give out that kind of desperation. This is why it would really be best that control and moderation would really be they key. It isnt really that a trap if you are really just that having that discipline because you would really be considering it to be one on the moment that you would be finding yourself
that spending up too much because you have lost your control on playing gambling on which this is something that could bring out that huge disaster into your finances.

I agree with the message in general, but not really with the part of "regardless of the chances of winning", unless you consider that casinos are dishonest and they won't show you the real odds, which cannot happen in provably fair services.

The key to me would be understanding how odds works and realising that, with no exception, they are always slightly against the gambler. If we acknowledge that, most probably we will stop looking for strategies, rituals and who knows what other deliriums about earning a steady income out of mere gambling.

Indeed, the opportunity sounds very good and good because it is possible that what you have said is true that the chance of winning will only be detrimental to a little in gambling because if we realize that then I think we will be able to learn more and explore new opportunities or strategies in running the existing gambling game or vice versa as you have said it is better for us to stop for a moment to focus on thinking with good common sense that gambling is indeed not a place to find money quickly and precisely but there are many risks and obstacles that will often occur in it.

Well, if you gamble with the intention of earning money and making profits, you will have a hard time moving on after every loss. This is the reason why a person should never gamble with such intentions because you don't get anything out of it except for sadness and a lot of stress. We should consider gambling a source of entertainment and get ourselves entertained by spending a limited amount of money on it that we can easily afford to lose.

When you are easily afford to lose an amount, you won't be sad or worried when you lose a bet or even if you lose the whole amount because you know it was allocated for this thing, so if you have lost it, you have at least had a good time while you were gambling and that is what's important.

The bad habit most gamblers have is not tracking their bets
Tracking helps so much in so many areas of life because you can look at what you are doing, study, improve and iterate on that
Tracking compounds. It’s really important

Technically they are, I mean if you look at psychology of gambling, most people don't really want to be a loser and so they try and do their best to make it right and the best in this case is that they need to play again until they get a win so big that it offsets all of the losses because small wins doesn't really count for them, it also is a trick in the brain, you're winning so you might be lucky and then you try again and then you lose and then the cycle repeats.

Yes, that's the main reason why most of us gamble. We're in it for the profit and there's no other reason behind that. And those that are doing it wrongly, think that the money they gamble there is an investment, no it's not.

A bet is a bet and that trap of mindset is giving them their food for thought that they should recover it once it's lost.

Acceptance of losses and to come up with another plan on how you should recover it through other means is a better way. There are nice stories that we hear from other gamblers on how they're able to recover and win but that's their stories and not from us.

You're right, I personally have always said something, if the game Obeyed simple mathematics I think there would be very Good people at this and they could make some Money , but in games there will Always be that random factor that changes Everything , you can have the best Prediction of all, but there is a minimum of Data that can make Everything go well in the End, so in this Order of ideas things can be generated Better if we see it from the closer point of view that the game is just luck , that there are strategies to win? Yes, but they are not safe , they are just paths and it is us who Decide whether to Follow them or not.

That's correct. The hate of defeat.
Ego, pride, or whatever it is called, it is because we want to go home as a winner and not as a loser. Even if it's just for a small amount, it's still a win.
Mentally, we tell ourselves that we will stop once we hit the amount that we lost but the truth is we cannot follow our own decision and we just keep on pressing that bet button until everything is gone. And that's the only time we are able to stop because we cannot bet anymore.
That's why I have been telling on other threads how it's easy to say to not chase the losses but it's so difficult to do. It's not like we want to end up going home thinking about our losses while we can still fight with the spare amount that we have. It requires hard discipline.

Yes, it is one good way to trap most gamblers. Not every gambler can be able to control themselves whenever they loss in a game. They believe they can still recover their money back and get a little profit. Of course, some are lucky to get their money back but i still believe only few are that lucky, most of the still end up losing everything along the line.

This is unbelievable. I never knew that there are people with so much pride that they would want to continue betting because of they are bigger than losing. In gambling no one is above losing, everyone must experience a winning and losing streaks in gambling. I think this is part that they would say 'pride comes before a fall' This is because such gambling acts the gambler is certain to lose along the line. Pride doesn't help in gambling; one must be responsible and adhere to the ethics of gambling to be successful in it.

There is a big mistake there, because governments should not worry about how citizens spend their money, because it is their money, governments should not worry about that, because when we start to see how the other payments can be made , we only have to look at those who make or have part of their money in Bitcoin or any other crypto , when it is like that, then things simply go to another level because they are put on a list where they always have to pay more money in taxes and Possibly risk having to pay more and more, this is something that will be noticed not now but in the future.

Therefore we must be able to control our thoughts so that we don't get trapped in thoughts like that, I mean so that we don't get trapped in a repetitive cycle like you said because that will make us experience even bigger losses if we gamble continuously to cover up our losses what we experience makes us increasingly out of control and in the end we will become increasingly losers because it is possible that we could become addicted to gambling because in gambling we will easily be provoked if we experience defeat and cannot control ourselves, therefore we have to be careful and don't get trapped easily in the gambling cycle.

In gambling we have to be good at controlling ourselves so that we don't easily get caught up in gambling which makes us lose even more, if we experience defeat we have to be able to accept it without having to chase defeat. Indeed, if we lose we will feel like a loser, but if we chase defeat too much, we will actually lose. If we experience even greater losses, we should not act too much like losers from the start because losing in gambling has become a natural thing because it is a risk that we have to bear.

I totally agree with your opinion, indeed, gamblers usually fall into bad behavior because of the lack of research or tracking first, they do not understand how to run gambling properly and correctly, they only see the bad side from the experience of other gamblers so they do not try to do tracking actions first which are actually very helpful in running gambling activities so as not to experience very big losses. Therefore, the tracking method is very important and has a big influence on gamblers in every action they take in making decisions in gambling

If a gambling player starts to think that after losing in gambling, he will restore his deposit by continuing to gamble, then this is a very erroneous conclusion.
Of course, you can easily understand this logic: the gambler sees how quickly and easily the balance on the casino account is changed, the deposit can be changed to the amount of several average salaries. And after losing, of course, gambler believes that luck is about to begin to accompany him.

But the only sure way out of the situation is to earn an honest living at a regular job. This is the only way for him to restore his economic position.

In fact, what should be done is like that, but it is precisely the opposite that most people who play gambling make gambling sites their staple food for seeking additional income. It is possible for someone who does not have a curious nature to stop when they experience defeat, but it is different if someone has  High curiosity, of course the gambling game will continue to be played until the money in his pocket is completely drained, that is the criteria that gambling sites are targeting today, looking for someone who has a nature full of ambition in silly and eccentric things.

That is so much bad, it is not guaranteed that a gambler will win their bet anytime soon, so when a gambler makes gamble a kind of thing that he calls his side hustle he is making a big mistake because winning is not guaranteed. No matter what the odd is, how big or how small if a bettor is not in a good position to win a bet he can never win. However some online gamble companies are not there to provide means for entertainment to their customers, they only need the whole money that's inside the pocket of their customers, so it's also a good reason for anyone that is gambling to know how to gamble responsible so that he won't spend all the money he have.

Yes I admit that most gamblers always put the intention and goal to earn in gambling, because it is clear from what they experience that they especially gamblers who have now entered the addiction phase experience various bad things in their lives such as losing balance in finances, family destruction to stress due to the pressure of the impact of their gambling and I think that is enough to be used as a sign or reason that they are gambling the wrong way.

On the other hand, of course, someone who does not involve excessive curiosity about winning in gambling will certainly be easier to stop in any situation, and I would say that a gambler who has a high level of curiosity about winning in gambling is those who most likely only see gambling in terms of winning opportunities, so it is only natural that they continue to bet without any limitations because greed and the desire to get money are always a priority in their mind, and it is a fact that in the end this mindset will only lead them to regret when they have run out of everything.

Yes and one of the reasons why I suggest to first justify our understanding and perspective on gambling is so that we have a really good approach and in accordance with our abilities, and I am sure that when someone has the right understanding of gambling such as realizing that there is no certainty and any guarantee to always produce victory along with realizing that the risk of loss will continue to lurk as long as we are involved in these activities then surely they will not dare to take various decisions and actions that are beyond their abilities.

And if we talk about the purpose and benefits of having a correct understanding of gambling, which is like what you said where we can minimize various unwanted possibilities such as experiencing large losses or various other bad possibilities, and other things by having the right understanding then I am sure you or whoever it is will easily apply various restrictions, because you know and understand that gambling is not an activity that should be prioritized.

Gambling itself is a trap because once we used to it we will crave for it we will find ways to gamble again same as chasing losses just because we wanted our money back or maybe we are hoping to hit the jackpot as that is what our purpose of gambling instead of gambling for fun. We are chasing loss one after another that is why we are caught in that emotional trap because the system/casino owners knows how greedy gamblers are.

It is better to use gambling as fun because there are many good and reputable sites in the gambling market but no site can be trusted completely they can cheat us very easily through their algorithm.  So it is always better to use gambling as fun, otherwise gambling can cause a lot of damage to us.  For this gambling should always be used as fun as it can give us pleasure in different ways.  But if someone uses gambling seriously then it can take a very dangerous form for him.

Yes it really true that some of the serious gamblers nowadays are those that have lost a lot in gambling, because of the amount of money they have lost they try to get back what they have lost and they start to gamble repeatedly and this make them lose a lot and sometimes they also win but one thing I should advise is that we should not let our losses be problem to our gambling lifestyle, what has gone has gone there is no need to start trying to get back what that have lost and you will definitely lose more and more to my to my knowledge because you will try to get back what you lost

Yes, if we can understand and understand that gambling is not a place to make a lot of money, then we do it not too focused and prioritize the activity. but we just have fun filling the empty time with the aim of entertaining ourselves so that we will not expect too much from the results of gambling which certainly cannot be guessed by all gamblers. so if we apply that good thinking, then we play gambling will feel comfortable, nothing burdens our own minds.

We have to be poetically responsible, whenever we get excited in the game we fall into simple traps, childish traps, like chasing losses when we have lost a lot of money, the other thing is that other types of events can occur, such as staying up late playing in a casino, leaving drunk, all this about alcoholic drinks in a casino is for that, to make you lose control, concentration and control is what should characterize us in order not to lose our way, I think that if a person has good consideration for that, he will not have to worry about anything in the future when he is in a Casino.

It's a wrong if people used gambling sites to seeks additional income because they will not wins easily in gambling games. Instead uses gambling like that way, they better uses gambling to have fun and accepts the outcomes that happens to them so they will not try so hard to wins the games. It's normal to have a curiosity about the wins but it's not better if they keeps playing gambling after experienced several losses.

They must thinks to stops playing gambling immediately after losses for some rounds. That means, they will not have a big chance to wins but they will gets more losses. They must realizes that gambling is just for entertainment and not to gets additional income because they can search for the other ways to make additional income.

Well said, I agree with you talking about Gamblers Accepting any outcome which is true, even in our everyday life we must also learn to accept whatever that comes. The truth is if Gamblers seek fun all the time through gambling, there is possibility of addiction in essence Discipline over everything.
Sticking to rules and plan, I see chasing losses, when a gambler continues to gamble after exhaustion of his daily allocated amount for gambling.

When gamblers can accept any outcomes, even if they lose, that will not makes them trying to chase their losses because they have aware that they can lose anytime. They will only use the money they can affords to lose when playing gambling because they knows that if they use more money, they can lose all of their money.

If gamblers just seek for fun in limited time, they will not trying to use much money and just playing gambling moderately. They will discipline, use limitation, and not gambling longer than other people. When they lose, they will not trying to recover their lose because they knows that will makes them lose big money. They will trying to prevents the big lose and will not lets them gets deeper in gambling because that can cause them gets more problems.

A responsible human being wouldn't do anything bad even if they are involved in something that isn't generally considered very good. Many people think of gambling as an activity that can be harmful to anyone which is not true because it all depends on how you handle it and whether you have enough patience and self-control to stay in control at all times.

Responsible people don't get addicted to gambling or alcohol or do things that can be financially or mentally harmful for them. You might see a responsible person gambling in a casino, but you wouldn't see them drinking and losing control over themselves and then becoming completely reckless with their bets and even their body or behaviour which is a bad thing because one should be under control at all times.

When you win you become addicted and when you lose you become even more curious. That's how gambling works to trap many people into staying in it. When they win they become more and more addicted to gambling until they lose what they have earned, and when they lose they become more and more curious about gambling until they lose all the money they have.

When we cannot control ourselves and the gambling activity itself well, all we get are losses and losses.

And if your state of mind and heart are not okay, or you feel hesitant enough to start gambling or place a bet. It would be better if you chose not to gamble or place bets. Because this will only bring you a loss. But on the other hand, you also shouldn't equate instinct with luck. Although instinct can provide guidance, the final outcome in gambling often depends on luck. Relying solely on luck without strategy or control can lead to huge losses.

When it comes to gambling then this one isnt really that bad, the only bad thing is on the moment that human beings do really make out bad decisions basing up on the things that they do have in mind on the moment that they do gamble. Come to think off that gambling is really just that for the sake of leisure and entertainment but since gambling could give out that kind of chance in speaking about profits or winning then this is where they are really that focusing into and this is why they do make themselves that being too desperate just because they've been expecting into something on which this fuels up that kind of desperation just because
you've been that trying out to be profitable and on the moment that you do gambling and if you do able to experience the opposite then this is where disappointment would be kicking in.

This is why on the moment that you do play gambling then it would really be always best that you should really be just that playing for the sake of fun and not for the money. Usually people do end up miserable due to gambling is into those people who are really that trying out to push into things which arent something that could be possible.

Thats the best mentality to go with when gambling because if you know that the casino house itself is meant for business then you would know that every business man would like to make profit from his business and you losing is exactly the way they actually make profits so don't ever feel you have the upper hand at this just go simply with the fun mentality towards gambling.

Gambling is an activity that could be done by a group of people for the same purpose of making more money. In a day people must make money in a casino. But, it's not so often for many to benefit everyday. People also think being consistent will hasten their wins. Such ideas seem wrong and proves right your response about the house interested in making money as well. Games like slot are being controlled by the house and is regulated for members to earn or win randomly. Gamblers are like individual who have no much reason to blame the casino for their losses. The decision to continue losing wasn't quite taken by another person for us. A trap is actually falling into a danger you weren't expecting or told about, mainly tricked. But gamblers already know about the losses involved and still falls for the trap.

It's how the system is built to be; the casino industry is not just growing and expanding just because they have customers; it's because they have more gamblers dancing to their turn, and only a few people actually escape the trap they set for them. 
 
That pattern of when you lose a game some days up to the extent that you will almost exhaust what you budget for the day just in your last bet you will happen to win 1 or you will nearly win which will motivate the gambler not to give up instead they will deposit more money thinking they are close to winning something big but at the end of the day it's just the same story.

Indeed it is like that, a person who is responsible above all else does not get drunk, he knows that he has to manage his money very well so that things do not get out of control and for a responsible person his family and his children come first, I believe that if a person does not have a family or anything yet, he is not going to spend so much money and be left empty-handed, that is something we cannot accept, besides we are thinking humans, and we have logic and we use reason, besides it is free to use, so there is no excuse, you have to consider all these types of things before playing in any casino and doing anything that has to do with money.

If we have full control over ourselves, we will be responsible gamblers and not easily trapped when we experience defeat and we will not try to chase losses because losing has become part of the gambling game and it is not a trap for us to continue playing but it is gambling has the potential to lose. When someone feels at a loss, they don't accept it and want to return the money they have lost, but without realizing it, that is what makes someone lose self-control and end up getting trapped in the game they are playing.

Indeed, when we are too excited, it is difficult to control ourselves, but don't let gambling make you uncontrollable, you have full power over yourself, don't let gambling control your mind to continue gambling when you lose, because thoughts like that will make the gambler become less responsible because chasing defeat too much.

This is a very bad decision he made, such that he's bound to regret and no doubt he's regretting it now since he didn't achieve his aim. His gambling addiction led him to going too far to pursue loses. I think the person that loaned him the money for gambling made the bigger mistake unless he's not aware of his intentions.

This is true when you don't gamble in moderation, you fall into the recovery pressure trap, just like your friend. I really think you guys should talk or motivate this guy into quitting gambling for now before things gets out of hands.

It seems he's also unemployed, which makes him see gambling as an earning opportunity and this is the architect of his problems.

It is kinda easy to motivate someone and give advice to stop gambling but the problem is how to convince him to forget about gambling and change his mind. In fact, many people did this and only a few of them went successfully while the majority failed to change their gambling life. This is how addiction makes someone become blind and not know what is wrong because what is their mind is to gamble and no matter what it takes, they don't care.

Some people choose to gamble because of desperation and hopelessness. Some jobless take this and think that gambling could give them better opportunities to make money but it ends up nothing. Instead of making more money, they are now suffering losses which is the worst thing happen.

In fact, both parties are committing wrong actions, gambler is not advised to borrow money as betting capital and everyone even if they are close friends is also not advised to give loans if they are only used for gambling, there will be repercussions bad for both.
If an addict can get loan, it is clear that they will go further and take ambiguous decisions without first thinking about the risks and impacts of their decisions.
Moreover, when someone gives loan, indirectly he is also providing support to his friend in the problem of addiction that has occurred, this kind of thing should be reduced significantly.

What is clear is that money is very difficult to get, in fact everyone has to work hard and do business diligently to be able to make certain amount of money and when they lose it, they will never easily accept or give up the lost amount of money.
There is always desire to be able to recover some of the money lost and they will act greedily when they win, this is an attitude that always occurs and very rarely gamblers are able to suppress it.
Moreover, the fundamental thought for gamblers is that they consider gambling to be the right place to make money easily and quickly, even though in certain conditions they are aware that what they do only results in losses due to losses that occur.

The people who choose to gamble because they are depressed and hopeless would not make money from gambling, they will always end up having nothing as gambling does not work well with depression. Depression will trap you to keep gambling and you will never be contender with what you are earning. Depression will make you an addict and this will make you to never stop gambling despite if you are winning or not winning. Gambling losses are a trap for new games because it will make you to want to gamble more and the more you keep losing is the more you will want to gamble because you do not want to lose but it would not work out in that way. To avoid this mistake, when we lose when gambling we should accept our defeat and not gamble more or you will lose more.

No one comes into business to lose or for charity, so I hardly believe any gambling casino isn't Programmed to make themselves rich, that's why I don't play any virtual or simulated games form any casino, I rather stick with real live events like football matches that they have little control over.

It seems to me that the most unfavorable scenario in gambling for an ordinary player begins with his big victory, because after this event, the player begins to think that this will always be the case. And after that he starts playing and catching loss after loss. At first, this is nothing unusual for him, because he is simply sure that nothing bad will happen to him like with other players, because in his opinion everyone else is stupid or losers except him. And so the losses continue, sometimes allowing him to win small amounts to keep his hope alive. After a while, his own money begins to run short and he thinks about where to find more or from whom to borrow this money. He ends up borrowing from his friends and ends up in debt. I think this classic path of the gambler is the most dangerous and it is very difficult to get out of such situations, because you can become an addicted gambler without ever finding a way back to normal life.

I think you are describing an irresponsible gambler. A responsible gambler limits his deposit to avoid losing more money than he can afford to lose. He will never take a loan for gambling, because gambling is not an easy way to make money, but entertainment, for which you have to pay. Even if a gambler does not realize it immediately, it will come with experience. Of course, it is better to learn from other people's experience, but it is not given to everyone.

Your friend is right about gambling. Losses that gambler experiences while gambling can act like a catalyst to either make the gambler continue gambling again and again until they lose all the money or it can force the gambler to stop gambling. Losses in gambling can act in those two ways, depending on the attitude of gambler, you know that everyone have different attitude and morals towards life, that is why we react differently to some changes and situations.  If some gambler lose more than four times, they will stop immediately but their are some gamblers that will always continue no matter their losses.

They will only losses more money if they still playing gambling and not thinks about search for the other solution to lets thems leave the gambling. Their depression will becomes higher until they can take care of themselves and they can gets in a trap to new game if they still playing gambling. That can triggers them to lose more money and not realizes that they are commit a big mistakes. They will difficult to realizes to stops from playing gambling and keeps stay in gambling and trying to playing another gambling games.

If some people lose in the gambling games, they will curious and will try to moves to the other gambling games. They feels that their luck will comes if they playing the other gambling games but that doesn't always happens to them because gambling is not like that. Gambling is just an entertainment and not for earn money.

Gambling is fun, its exciting, but it aint a get-rich-quick scheme. The home always win. Always. That is how they earn their money. They are merely playing the chances, which are always in their favour; they are not cheating. So, what does this imply for you? It says you must be intelligent. You need to know when to walk away. It is a loser's game to pursue loses. It is a trap. It'll draw you in and then dump you miserable and broke.

You know, winning in gambling is knowing when to give up. Budget, stick to it, and accept that you will lose. Another day always comes. Never forget, enjoying yourself is the main goal. Wealth is not the goal. You will be ahead if you can remember that.
