Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens.

Post by: Rruchi man on August 13, 2025, 08:00:44 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? One sign of maturity is taking responsibility for your actions. Individuals who still play the blame games are irresponsible gamblers who should not be gambling in the first place, and that is a sign of immaturity. These kinds of people are the exact kind of persons that you should be cautious when introducing them to an opportunity, not just gambling, even if they feel or have an interest originally, because at the end of the day they may end up blaming you for whatever the outcome of the action that they took with their own hands.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Oshosondy on August 13, 2025, 08:06:01 AM Not the government that I will blame for everything, especially when we are talking about money management. If I have money and I waste all the money on something like drinking, women or other things, I can not blame the government. So I can not also blame the government for allowing gambling. I only see it as having freedom in the country.
I can neither blame the gambling site but to just blame myself. But I have myself not to blame also because I gamble responsibly. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

But they forget one thing, it is ourselves that really get the blame here as we have been influence to gamble or if we decided to go into this world knowing the consequences. So there's no one to blame here but ourselves. And most likely gamblers not blaming them will fall into addiction as they don't want that responsibility within them that they should stop already as it really ruining their lives. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: joeperry on August 13, 2025, 08:18:59 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Gambling has been here for hundred of years, some of the gambling sites do legalized this and actually most of the budget or profit from the government comes from gambling. Now, before you gamble they always ask even in online gambling site if you are 18 years old, usually because this the common legal age where you understand the risk regarding gambling.If you lose, it's your responsibility and it's your decision in the first place. Though I understand that people blame gambling site because they are frustrated but in reality they know that it's their choice in the first place. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Joy- maker on August 13, 2025, 08:27:10 AM Not the government is to be blamed for allowing gambling in a particular country, nor the casino is to be blamed for existing in the first place, because gambling is a choice. You are the one to decide wether to be part of it or not, so if you decide to be part of it with your money then gamble responsibly and with the money you can afford to lose. So if you decide to gamble irresponsibly and lose all your money blame yourself for that act and not the government for allowing gambling to exist in your country nor the casino for existing in the first place.

I think the whole idea of trying to place blame in the first place is a bit misguided. You’re paying for entertainment, so if you are looking to blame someone for you not being happy with your purchase than I guess you could blame the casino for not being entertaining enough, but it would be better to just find a form of entertainment you do enjoy.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Kelward on August 13, 2025, 08:45:32 AM People who blame casinos or government for allowing them to operate when they lose are those that wants to reap where they did not sow. There aims are to double their money in casinos forgetting that the casinos also wants to make profit from them. They might not know that the casinos have higher chances of taking their money than they have of winning from the casinos. Gamblers should keep an open mind when gambling, they should understand that casinos wants you to lose as much as you want to win their money. There should be no hard feelings when you lose because if you win they are obligated to pay you.

There in gambling, the only form the casino or a casino is when they cheat players or behind the scene of outsider (s) succeeding to steal users funds of documents in their platform.It is the right of the governments to maintain orderliness in the society including the economy. Authority of the governments over individual could be limited so, we don't expect them (government) to always interfere at all course because we either don't like them deciding for us. So they are not to be blamed when gamblers looses so bad to be crying out unless they (government) are self centered overlooking reputations and their obligations to care for the people. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: danherbias07 on August 13, 2025, 08:48:09 AM I play the blame game, but only in my mind. I don't say it out loud. Sometimes I find online casinos super unfair with their RTP, and I think that should change.
Still, I don't want anyone to hear me crying about my losses because it's my own fault in the first place. It's ourselves that must be blamed for letting our emotions get the better of us, and sadly, it happens quite often. Blame the game, blame the government, or whatever. If it could somehow put an end to our madness, then do it. Just do not say it out loud to avoid getting into trouble. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Perfectbaby on August 13, 2025, 08:52:09 AM Before anyone gambles or join gambling they should at least try to bear the risk involved while gambling and also it's important to gamble with what they can afford lose and anyone who gambles with the amount that is extremely low or amount they didn't attach any meaningful things when they lose it they wouldn't for any day regret or blaming anyone for their loses that is why we must take responsibility while gambling. Gambling is sweet when you allocate smaller amounts and also gambling for fun without at least attaching so much meaning to money used in gambling.

This also help me checkmate my gambling activities on when not to gamble for a while after a big loss.If i don't take the responsibility of my losses, it will make me continue doing the same mistake over and over again, because I will always put the blame on people.

It's crazy for someone to even blame their irresponsible gambling behavior on something else meanwhile they are supposed to hold their self accountable for their actions. When someone does that, it means that the person doesn't even want to change from any irresponsible behavior that they are already exhibiting. I don't gamble with any money that I can not afford to lose but if I do and I lost the money, I can not put the blame on anyone but myself. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Bluedrem on August 13, 2025, 09:46:45 AM If there was no gambling, people would be addicted to something else. They would lose their money in something else. Most things in the world are made with a focus on their moral use. But people gradually turn it into a negative side. I know that the consequences of being addicted to gambling can be terrible, yet we often slowly become addicted to gambling.
Honestly, I don't see the gambling side of things as a cause of harm to people. In fact, those who are facing losses are themselves inclined to losses because they also knew that the consequences of being addicted to gambling would be bad. Yes, we can compare it with sauce, just as sauce makes food attractive. Different types of gambling sites also arouse people's negative attitudes more. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Post by: lovesmayfamilis on August 13, 2025, 09:53:22 AM Someone who understands responsibility and accepts their losses can be considered an adult who can answer for their actions. However, the world is such that it is easier to blame all your mistakes on others. There are many to blame: a difficult childhood, a bad country, and teachers who did not explain and educate enough. Gambling is also on the list of the guilty; some believe that it is not entertainment but a way to earn money. Blaming everyone around is childish behavior, and until people understand this, they will be unhappy, since the way out of their accusations lies within themselves.

We should blame ourselves on the risk of anything we do in life including gambling. However we would not have to blame ourselves if we know how to gamble responsibly. Start to find someone to blame including ourselves is just showing that we are not mature enough and we are not responsible enough because if we are responsible enough in gambling, we should have realize that lossing is part of gambling.

Every individual must be aware of their responsibility for their losses in gambling because they cannot blame others or the platform itself since they are just a business and we are customers, so of course we must be aware of that.

Other people or casinos might manipulate you into making big bets but they didn’t force you into doing anything. It used to be different for me though. I fell for those traps before and I blamed them for tricking me. It didn’t solve anything. I learned from that mistake and improved my habits and become the way I am today. You see those who say they wouldn’t blame others usually are the types that don’t lose big money to gambling in the first place. Those who lose big money, they mostly blame the casino. It is an interesting loop which most people can’t escape.

The government is collecting huge tax from this gambling site in their countries, the government really do not care about the amount you lose in gambling provided the betting companies are paying their taxes, and the government will not force you to play it, either do the betting site force you to pay. Its a personal choice to play or not, the outcome is your responsibility not the government. I take full responsibility for my lose and my gain, because no one force me into gambling, i registered the app on my phone and input my details, blame game wont stop the operation, if one is not favor in gambling step aside, it not do and die affairs, its a win to win game, when you win the bookies cry, and when you lose the bookies smiles to the bank.

Blaming others for your losses is a sign that you are an incompetent gambler. You can blame others when you lose badly or you play according to the advice of others and lose a lot. There are some casino sites where you may lose even when you are very close to winning, at that time it may seem that someone has deliberately beaten you. You should remember that the casino developers are prepared to make you lose, so you should be prepared to lose and gamble for fun. You should blame yourself for your losses in gambling. Blaming others may not be the right decision for you.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: crwth on August 13, 2025, 10:23:16 AM Everything that members have mentioned is that the responsibility lies within the individual; I agree with this.

There should be some ethical practice and education on this that you should accept and take accountability for. Find a support system or surround yourself with people who would say what you need to hear. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Blaming yourself doesn't count as blame game. Blame game is when you try to shift blame to another person, third party being intervening occurrence or object. But if you take the blame, it means you have also taken responsibility for the action that would have caused blame. Taking blame save alot of headache Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Cityhunter34 on August 13, 2025, 10:36:45 AM It's pretty obvious that gambling is a personal decision so there is no one to be blame, since you are not force to gamble, it is left for you to make informed decisions on your own and gamble responsibly. Because gambling is not something to rely on heavily since luck have the besic role in determining the final outcome, there is no need to worry about making a living through gambling because it is only when you don't have a self control in gambling that would going to put the blame on gambling without realizing that you are the cause of your losses and blame.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: danadc on August 13, 2025, 10:37:40 AM I agree with OP, it's the sole responsibility of anyone who decides to gamble, No matter what happens, they have to accept their role, whether as a winner or a loser.
It's not easy for some players to accept this, There are players whose egos are affected when they lose, and that's why they make decisions that have nothing to do with responsibility because they lose control, Things just have to be accepted, I didn't accept them before , but now that I know how the casino system works, I have to assume my responsibilities when I lose. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Y3shot on August 13, 2025, 11:07:45 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?

If you enter gambling with a mindset of greed, you are likely to lose all your money, and in the end, you will want to hold the casino responsible for decisions made by you. Understand how gambling works and accept it as it is, because nothing guarantees winning. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Of course myself out of my ignorance. What if it's a genuine site and I looses out of irresponsible gambling personality of me, who's to be blamed?

The reason why gambling is restricted to a certain age is because they want only people who are mature enough to take full responsibility for their actions to gamble.

Finally, at the end of the chain, existing regulations aren't to blame too, they are exist to save gambler from fraud. What should we do? we just needs to support them in quitting, if possible.

Before opening a gambling account, you should first understand the risks of gambling and then open an account. If you lose a huge amount while gambling, you cannot blame anyone but yourself for this loss.

Little do they know that it's their wrong decisions that's the reason why they lost their money. As for me, if I lose, I take responsibility and because I take responsibility, I just simply move on from it because at first, I already knew the risks and consequences of gambling, and I already knew that there's a high chance that I might lose my money. Gamblers who are blaming the casino or other people with their losses are those who can't take they lost. Those are the ones that have a different mindset, and think too much about winning.

Likewise, any government that cares about the well-being of its citizens must approach the problem of gambling addiction seriously in a way that enables people to self-disconnect from gambling and to provide them with professional help if they ask for it.
Gambling should be fun, it should not turn into an addiction that benefits no one but only creates a big problem. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

This is because people who tend to blame the game most of the time have the higher chance of having the urge to deposit more and eventually lose it all in trying to collect back what the game took from them. As a gambler is important for you to accept the loss even before the loss comes that way will you face no emotional draw down if you eventually lose the game.

I believe those who are into gambling today knows that gambling is a very risky game that also work with chance and luck so i see no reason why we should be putting the blame on something when we already know about this. I take full responsibility of every loses that occurs, and that is because I know that in gambling there is nothing like confident or sure game, if you predict and it works just see yourself as a lucky person in that initial time because you might try the next minutes and fail. Though some person's fail to understand this before going into gambling that is why whenever they experience lose in gamble instead of taking responsibility for their lose they would want to transfer the blame to the team.

We also need to understand that the outcome of gambling is often unpredictable and that the possibility of losing money is part of that responsibility. When someone begins to feel like they're losing control, it's important to pause and evaluate.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: reagansimms on August 13, 2025, 02:30:38 PM Being responsible is an important part that must be done so as not to blame other parties when losing in gambling. Gambling is not for individuals who are weak-minded or easily frustrated when losing, everyone needs to have a strong mentality because gambling never guarantees victory for anyone. If you want to find fault, then you should blame yourself, that's what every gambler who often loses should do. If you feel the risk level is greater than the luck, then never approach gambling.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Dareo on August 13, 2025, 02:31:42 PM The more you are able to accept your losses and take responsibility of it the better your gambling life. This is because people who tend to blame the game most of the time have the higher chance of having the urge to deposit more and eventually lose it all in trying to collect back what the game took from them. As a gambler is important for you to accept the loss even before the loss comes that way will you face no emotional draw down if you eventually lose the game. Accepting to endure losses is a large component of self-control in gambling. Continuing to blame the game will only serve to make a bad situation worse as you would simply continue to chase losses. The fact that we can lose at any time would imply the ability not to panic, but to think of more logical actions.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: bitzizzix on August 13, 2025, 02:33:27 PM While everything is interconnected, the most important factor is the individual. Gambling is a personal choice, and we must be aware of and understand the potential negative consequences if we don't gamble responsibly.
Casinos also play an important and responsible role. If they advertise transparently and don't operate in inappropriate or unsafe locations, there's the potential for minors to become involved. And if that happens, it's not the children's fault, as they are still very young and don't yet have the mindset to gamble responsibly and play cautiously, which can negatively impact their development. While parents also play an important role, careless and fraudulent casinos can negatively impact many parties, even reputable ones. And governments have a crucial role in regulating and strictly enforcing laws regarding the legality or illegality of casinos in their countries. Furthermore, governments should continue to educate and advertise more about the dangers of gambling on social media, television, and other platforms where many people use or watch it, helping them be more cautious. I don't think we should entirely blame ourselves or individuals. We gamble because it exists and is available. If neither of these existed, we wouldn't be here, and this is what makes me say that everything is interconnected. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: dwyane36 on August 13, 2025, 02:38:45 PM It's pretty obvious that gambling is a personal decision so there is no one to be blame, since you are not force to gamble, it is left for you to make informed decisions on your own and gamble responsibly. Because gambling is not something to rely on heavily since luck have the besic role in determining the final outcome, there is no need to worry about making a living through gambling because it is only when you don't have a self control in gambling that would going to put the blame on gambling without realizing that you are the cause of your losses and blame. A gambler may reach a point where their conscious decisions suddenly become emotional decisions. This usually happens when gamblers start to tilt due to a long losing streak. It's obvious that in this state, they will start to blame the casino rather than themselves. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

I can't blame anyone including the person that introduced me to gambling because the final decision is left for me.

I gamble consciously, with my own devices, time, and money. There is no need to blame anyone because losing is indeed part of the risk that I should be prepared to accept. From the perspective of a family with a member who has become a gambling addict, they will likely blame the casino or the government for not enforcing strict regulations on gambling. However, they do not understand that the problem lies with the gambler, not the gambling place. They only think that if gambling is prohibited, gamblers will no longer be able to gamble. In fact, that is a big misconception. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: aioc on August 13, 2025, 03:21:10 PM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Playing in a casino isn’t for you if you tend to blame others. You’ll end up shaming yourself if you lose, and then you’ll blame the casino. You should understand how a casino works, what the house edge is, what gambling is and the probability that you are going to lose. Without understanding, you are likely to blame the casino, ignorant of how a casino works, excuses no gambler. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Whether you win or lose, you must be prepared to accept the consequences and not blame others. Simply put, casinos never force you to gamble, they simply create marketing narratives to make their platforms appealing. Whether you’re tempted by the promise of big wins or enticing bonuses is entirely your choice. The most important thing is that you fully understand how to register and play on their site, and when you lose then don't blame them. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

But some gamblers will become childish and put the blame on the game or that the game is rigged. This comes from a false perception that it is possible to beat the casino at its own game.
With proper knowledge of how these games work, it might even lead to that gambler stopping gambling and opening a casino on their own to operate. If you understand the math, you will reconsider playing at all. If kept under a lid, it can be fun - then you would not be blaming anyone. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Gambling is a choice just like every other thing in life, you can either choose to engage in it or you don't. Despite the fact that we have a lot of people Gambling, we also have those that don't engage in it.

Post by: Tmoonz on August 13, 2025, 03:39:17 PM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? One sign of maturity is taking responsibility for your actions. Individuals who still play the blame games are irresponsible gamblers who should not be gambling in the first place, and that is a sign of immaturity. These kinds of people are the exact kind of persons that you should be cautious when introducing them to an opportunity, not just gambling, even if they feel or have an interest originally, because at the end of the day they may end up blaming you for whatever the outcome of the action that they took with their own hands.You are right about this not being able to accept responsibility of our actions is childish and such person has a long way to go and when it comes to introducing anyone to an opportunity it is best you throw it at them at a sight for them to make their own personal decisions after the risk and the potential benefits has been made known to them, gambling is never and should never be done by force, it is very simple game where if you can't risk it don't gamble it so you don't blame anyone at the end when things didn't work as expected, it is only natural to think and do anything in the direction taken responsibility for whatever becomes of the outcome. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Davidvictorson on August 13, 2025, 03:46:07 PM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? I take full responsibility for all the losses I have had during the time of gambling and also all my wins too. I hate the blame game and it is actually stupid to blame a casino for one's losses. It tells me one that that the person is not mature enough to gamble. I do not even blame the government for it. Why should I? Even the governments are doing their best to make sure that casinos are regulated. The other time, I think it was the government of Brazil that put in effort to regulated casinos so as to reduce underaged gambling. Gambling is about taking full responsibilities for one's action and if a person is not ready to do it then, they shouldn't be gambling. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Brave to recognize the losses received instead of blaming the casino or country that allows gambling.Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Blame the casino for the loss of money because we play gambling, for me just like blaming the parents who have given birth to us.

But I don't see the need to blame for losing in gambling, it's for entertainment, so the result should be no one get blamed. If a government completely ban gambling, I don't think it's a right thing because it forbid people to get fun or explore their potential, not to mention there are so many illegal casinos now. What's the point to forbid people to gamble in legal casino, but they gamble in illegal casino right? Title: Re: Who do you blame?

It's natural for many people to always blame others for their failures instead of blaming themselves. Just look at how those at the top of government behave most of the time. They blame their failures on others. So, society itself has developed this sad habit of believing that the blame must always lie with others. Consider the case of the countries that banned Bitcoin; their governments claimed gambling was to blame. They simply ignored the fact that each person has a brain to think and make decisions for themselves, and that gambling is just computer programs; they don't speak or think. It's the people who misuse the program (gambling) who are to blame. But the governments of these countries don't care about that. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Let me ask you a question- with all the freedom in the world that you have, do you commit any crimes like murder, thievery, and other related crimes? The answer is obvious: NO. With all the freedom and discipline that a person has, he/she will not commit any crimes because we understand that there are consequences with our decisions. Same in gambling- if you tend to over commit and lose your self-control, then there is no other person to blame but yourself. Sure, gambling can be access easily but addiction can be avoided if a person exercises all the self-discipline and responsibility of their decisions. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

The real problem is all about risking too much than they can handle, they got greedy and the nature of gambling dealt with them good, if I lost a lot of money to gambling it's all my fault, I've never blamed a casino before, there are times where I gambled for weeks and noticed that I don't win anything, I quit for a whole week and came back later then things changed a bit.

If I murder someone it is not my fault, I will blame the gun for existing. Genius. From realist point of view advertisement by the capitalists is a violation of human right because what you might not like to buy or participants but because of the way it is presented to you, you buy the product or participate in the service which ordinarily you might not like to do it. So I blamed the casino for the loss of the gambler. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Fredomago on August 13, 2025, 07:22:28 PM Most of the time if a gambler doesn't want to admit his mistake he'll find ways to blame someone, as he can't admit that everything happened because he allow it to happen, and to excuse himself he'll not going to take the blame and not to take full responsibility of his actions, though there are also gamblers who can simply admit things out and move forward knowing that there's nothing can be changed even they blame someone it won't take back their losses.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Dickiy on August 13, 2025, 07:23:07 PM That's the ridiculousness of people. Blaming something that can only harm someone when they make a wrong decision is unreasonable, because after all, the decision rests with each individual gambler.
Furthermore, there is no coercion or even threats from any party, especially the casino, to gamblers to continue gambling or to pursue winnings. This means that every action taken is based on the gamblers' own decisions. It's incredibly frustrating to see gamblers blaming others for their losses, even though it's clear from the start that such is the risk of gambling; they are the losers. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

I am done in the blaming the game or anyone that I just want to point out for my losses. It makes no sense when we're older and have grown already.We are to blame ourselves with all of the losses that we're making because no one is there to do that to us. But if it happens that someone is blaming us for their losses as well, we'll counter react on it and we'd tell them to stop gambling. And that will be the same scenario for us if we are to blame anybody for our losses. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

If casino's were really at fault every person on the planet would be gambling or addicted. Since this is not the case, the valid conclusion is that it is the responsibility or fault of the individual.

Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Fuso.hp on August 13, 2025, 07:52:34 PM If a gambler blames the government or blames the casino system after gambling in the wrong way or blaming the person he has learned about gambling, then I would say that the gambling has very little general knowledge. But no casino has requested a gambler to gamble with personal messages, but that gambler has gambling or gambling or using an online casino to gamble. Before gambling, the gambler must have known that the result would be some amount of profit in favor of the result, but if the result is against, the more money he gambles with the more money he will lose everything. After knowing all these things, if a gambler starts gambling with a low understanding of gambling and if he loses money and if he blames someone else for losing this money, he will make himself a fool by doing this.
Title: Re: Who do you blame?

All the decisions and control lies with the person himself. Although there are external factors that attract a person to gamble, advertisement and promotions, it is not something that coerces him to do something against his will nor blackmail him to follow the gambling platform to gamble. It is the person own voluntary action to gamble. If the person does not decide to gamble himself, no one can force him to spend any money and gamble it away regardless of the session result. Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? It is my own decision to gamble so definitely it is my responsibility, whatever the outcome is. Blaming other people or the casino for my own decision is not a moral thing to do and will have a negative on me in the long run. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

I don’t think everyone should be responsible for your own losses because you knows exactly what gambling is and you went straight to bet or put in your money; irrespective of what happened along the line, you have yourself to blame even if there is a system error because you know it’s a very risky game and if you win you will take the money.Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens.

Casino platforms are increasing everyday, I don’t think government can take control over it anymore because people will have to bed despite the restrictions, that is why you can’t blame government cause if they completely restrict gambling, you will blame them; therefore, take responsibility of what you are into yourself because you are not an underage that don’t know what he /she is doing.

So no one is to blame for losses in gambling, not the casinos and not even the government. Blaming another for losses is even looking like a sign of irresponsibility.

As for me, i don't see the need of placing blame on anyone or anything, because the final decision in gambling lies on us, which is our own personal discretion in deciding on whether to gamble or not, so why should the blame be made on anything around us that does not constitute the decision making process before we place a bet, we are to also have in mind that gambling should be taken base on our affordability on it, which some may be able to take the risk to play a bet, lose the money and take the fun out of it, because that's how they see it.

Shame on those gamblers that until now, with all of the years they have been gambling and still tries to find fault to the others with all of the mistakes and decisions that they do for their bets. There is nothing wrong for accounting ourselves with the bets that we've lost. We can try to recover it somehow but better not to expect full recovery and lost bets, should have been considered no recoveries anymore and shouldn't be chased.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Abbatty on August 13, 2025, 09:30:18 PM For sure you take responsibility for your loss, you are not being forced to gamble, you can’t blame government on this. There are people who are gambling as job, they see it as a means to escape poverty and there are others who just see it as fun, they just enjoy the cruise in gambling.
So any individual who takes his/her money to gamble is being held responsible for whatever the outcome is. You are not being forced out being manipulated to gamble, it your choice and you are fully aware of your actions. When you lose you look for who to blame but when you win you give yourself personal praise and spend the money alone. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: robelneo on August 13, 2025, 10:02:23 PM .

Post by: AYOBA on August 13, 2025, 10:16:03 PM If there was no gambling, people would be addicted to something else. They would lose their money in something else. Most things in the world are made with a focus on their moral use. But people gradually turn it into a negative side. I know that the consequences of being addicted to gambling can be terrible, yet we often slowly become addicted to gambling. Normal even has the gambling exists; there’s still something else that some of the people are getting addicted to; it’s just that the gambling has become obvious because a lot of people are into gambling. That’s why they see it as the only thing that most of the people are getting addicted to, and even the reason why some of the people are losing money in the gambling is that some lack good orientation or a lack of understanding about how the gambling is operating. And that’s why they found it very easy to be addicted to gambling. Why? Because they’re playing their bets without limits, and if a person is into gambling and it doesn’t have limits on how he bets, it will definitely lead him to lose, and then from there he will try to recover whatever-he has lost back. That’s where some get affected by the gambling addiction quickly. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Naturally I'm not the blaming type but someone that takes responsibility for all their action. I won't blame the caisnos, government or anyone else but will just consider everything to be part of experience. Let say I allowed my greed to get the best of me and staked more than I usually would had, then I'll just have to learn from that particular situation then make better choices next time. The blaming isn't bringing back my money or giving me the rewards I was supposed to have won so what's the essence of wasting all those time blaming.

If I have money and I waste all the money on something like drinking, women or other things, I can not blame the government. So I can not also blame the government for allowing gambling. I only see it as having freedom in the country. When someone loses at gambling, they usually find someone to blame. In fact, there's someone to blame for other losses, not just gambling. Many people do this. Someone who admits they're incompetent at managing their money is doing themselves a favor by realizing it. I can neither blame the gambling site but to just blame myself. But I have myself not to blame also because I gamble responsibly. I also like that casinos are legal in countries. That's how it should be. People need to take responsibility for themselves. The only thing that needs to be done is for casinos to be properly regulated. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Hispo on August 13, 2025, 11:11:22 PM To me it is kind of silly there are gamblers who genuinely can reach a point in their expectations in which they gamble their losses to casinos. It is similar to people who smoke, and then proceed to gamble others for their poor health and the consequences of their actions, from the beginning their are told about the consequences on their actions on the long terms, as gamblers are told from the very beginning casinos are a place of entertainment and all money being exchanges by chips are to be treated as lost.

I am not a gambler for nothing, but I’m responsible of whatever I’m capable to gain or even on part of losses. And since losses are obviously inevitable, though we can always minimize from losing our funds, but taking such blame game is an act of desperation and stupidity. If you think you’re weak, then stay away from gambling. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: viljy on August 14, 2025, 05:49:14 AM ~ Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? You can only blame yourself. Even if you suspect that the gambling could have been rigged (hypothetically), you should blame yourself first of all (for the fact that your decisions led you to such a dubious casino). It seems absurd, but only at first glance. In fact, this is the only position that allows you to manage your life. This position is easier to accept if intruders (and scammers) are perceived as natural phenomena, as challenges that must be overcome. If you personify them, then instead of making constructive decisions, you can get bogged down in the search for those to blame, which subsequently threatens to turn into shifting any responsibility to everything and everyone. P.S. Of course, this does not mean that scammers should not be held responsible. But this is their fate; it is important that their fate does not control yours, including through shifting the blame. I hope the point is clear; I expressed the idea as best I could. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Questat on August 14, 2025, 06:09:18 AM This is supposedly what we put in our minds.

Casinos create ads to attract gamblers, but it doesn't mean they are forcing us to gamble. Therefore, making them a tool to blame our losses is not a good practice. Instead, blame ourselves for being fools. Being a gambler is not just knowing how to gamble but also knowing responsibilities. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

You’re paying for entertainment, so if you are looking to blame someone for you not being happy with your purchase than I guess you could blame the casino for not being entertaining enough, but it would be better to just find a form of entertainment you do enjoy. If there's anyone that's going to be blamed here it's the gambler, it's a sign of irresponsibility to blame the casino for your own entertainment that you clearly got into by yourself. Sometimes I think it's frustration that makes some gamblers think like this, they can't accept their losses so they start regretting and doing the blame game.

Just as I have freedom over my own money and property, and as I am free to use my wealth, if I use my money for gambling and if I cannot control my greed then my destruction is inevitable. Blaming the country or government is just an excuse. The government of a country does not know how terrible your greed can be, so the government can only advise its people not to gamble. But you must be know how to start gambling and where to stop.

I gamble at a specific time every day, now if I cannot control myself then who should I blame, of course I will blame myself because it is a question of self-control. Just as I have freedom over my own money and property, and as I am free to use my wealth, if I use my money for gambling and if I cannot control my greed then my destruction is inevitable. Blaming the country or government is just an excuse. The government of a country does not know how terrible your greed can be, so the government can only advise its people not to gamble. But you must be know how to start gambling and where to stop. No gambler should blame any other person or even the casino because gambling is something that is done voluntarily gambling is controllable so it's expected that every gambler should have a limit to his or her gambling activities that is why every casino will even advise people to gamble responsible Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: dezoel on August 15, 2025, 03:31:24 PM No one is going to be blamed for this because now good awareness about all things rehab working if someone still feeling not good he needs to be had some more activity other than gambling which keep his busy, and he is not able to through for this.
Peoples with strong mindset feel this as entertainment never blame anyone because they always understand about this but peoples those always enter into this with addiction or want to end their poverty never stop playing blame games. In most countries, sources are not enough for having better life which is also causing this and increase addiction here who to blame because stress playing his own game which is always dirty. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Distinctin on August 15, 2025, 03:41:50 PM If the gambler isn’t responsible for his losses than who is? I think the whole idea of trying to place blame in the first place is a bit misguided. You’re paying for entertainment, so if you are looking to blame someone for you not being happy with your purchase than I guess you could blame the casino for not being entertaining enough, but it would be better to just find a form of entertainment you do enjoy. All casino games are entertaining, so you can’t blame them for the reason that you aren’t entertained at all. Except if your own concept for being entertaining is that you should also be in profits, then you are looking it the wrong way. Casino is a business, the more losses the players obtained, the more profitable the house will be. It’s good to say that casinos are bound to make us lose, winning is just a bonus. So any gambler shouldn’t be blaming the casino for their losses. In fact, no one should be blamed, except if the gambler itself does not clearly understand the concept of gambling and how it works. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Versatile_choice on August 15, 2025, 04:02:39 PM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Yes ofcourse, I took responsibility on my loses. As anyone enter the gambling scene they should be ready if ever they took a hit or big loss. Blame game are for those crying users who dont have the guts to accept that gambling may actually made them lose. A gambler is supposed to take responsibility in whatever outcome they get from gambling whether good or bad they have to take full responsibility, I believe no one is forced to go into gambling. is individual's choice to gamble and before anyone will think of gambling is assume that they are already aware about the risk that is involved so I see no reason why we should be blaming anyone for our loses, is only those who are not ready to go into gambling that would want to transfer the blame to someone because they just choose to go into gambling due to the success stories they heard online they may not know the risk that is involve, most of them think that gambling is all about wining wining wining not until they give it a trial and discover new things. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: kryptqnick on August 15, 2025, 05:03:55 PM Gambling does carry risks, but it’s important to look at the bigger picture: the problem is not just the game, the casino, or the advertising, but how a person handles risk and money. I support the focus on personal responsibility, as long as we are talking about adults who can make informed and conscious decisions. The government and the industry should create safe rules and provide information about risks, but they cannot be responsible for someone's emotions and choices.

Yes, it's clear that gambling is high-risk, but all the problems that arise, such as addiction, are not the casino's fault, but rather the player's own. Irresponsible gamblers ignore the risks and focus solely on winning. Instead, they end up in a phase that is very detrimental to themselves.When this happens, the blame lies solely on themselves for their bad gambling behavior. If they were disciplined in their gambling, these problems would not have occurred. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Fivestar4everMVP on August 15, 2025, 06:25:56 PM Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines. The most annoying part of this whole blame game is that gamblers normally are happy and do not blame any thing or anyone when they win, they are happy and celebrating their win, they do not thank the casino, neither do they when remember the government that didn't ban gambling, but would rather complain if they are asked to pay task on the win, they keep and enjoin their profit alone with their family.Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens. Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? But when it comes to the part of loses, they start looking for some one to blame, this is not ideal and should be condemned in its totality, gamblers should learn to take responsibility of the out come of their gambling decisions and choices. Personally, I've always taken responsibility of my gambling actions and it's outcomes, I mean, why should I blame anything or anyone for losing, when I don't pay homage to them when I win.. I can only blame a casino or anything else for my lose if they clearly are the reason why I lost. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Sometimes I think it's frustration that makes some gamblers think like this, they can't accept their losses so they start regretting and doing the blame game. This is why I always say that gambling isn't meant for everybody Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Blame game are for those crying users who dont have the guts to accept that gambling may actually made them lose. If anyone trying to gamble and he wasnt ready enough to take on potential results then dont try one cause money is important especially if the users got family that might be affected with it. Nobody is to be blame but yourself for your actions and outcomes in gambling. Gambling has being in existence since inception, you made your choice to gamble without being forced to, so why shift the blame on government or casinos . Gambling has rules and regulations which are to be followed and when not followed and failed they start looking for who to blame . Most problem we have is that we want to manipulate gambling to suite us instead of follow the rules of the game, we fail to understand that is for entertainment and not for fund making that is the main reason alot of persons incure losses Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: rachael9385 on August 15, 2025, 07:00:00 PM Not the government that I will blame for everything, especially when we are talking about money management. If I have money and I waste all the money on something like drinking, women or other things, I can not blame the government. So I can not also blame the government for allowing gambling. I only see it as having freedom in the country. I can neither blame the gambling site but to just blame myself. But I have myself not to blame also because I gamble responsibly. Just like other things you made mention of drinking alcohol, women and so on these things are there and it's your choice as an individual to indulge in them irresponsibly or be responsible. The government has no right over what we choose to do because no one is under slavery, so they should not be blamed for allowing gambling. No one is to be blamed but that gambler that's irresponsible Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Alpha Marine on August 15, 2025, 07:17:06 PM There is no one to blame other than the individual. You can't blame the casino for seeing a business opportunity and you cant blame the government for not banning something that is not illegal. The gambler was not forced, he has the right to decide how much he wants to bet with or not bet at all, so he carries all the blame.
I am a gamler, and not for once have I ever blamed anybody for losing money in gambling. Sometimes in sports betting, I may get angry at the players or the referee, but I cant blame them for my loss because I willing placed the bet, even before the match started.

Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Wakate on August 15, 2025, 07:25:04 PM The losses we incur due to gambling are driven by our own desires. No matter how bad the situation, we should blame ourselves, not others, even if it was initially encouraged by a friend. We are the ones who make the decisions and choose to gamble. If we gamble in the first place we must accept the losses. Blaming others for the losses is unethical. I have staked several bets just today because I have the fund and I believe I'm going to make some reasonable profits from betting today. There are people that even though they do g have the fund to gamble, they can go extra miles to get a loan just to place bet that has no guarantee of winning. We all have to be very careful when gambling so we don't become too addictive to it urging us to gamble more even when we don't have the fund. No one will be blamed when you gamble with all your money and finally start begging for more when you have nothing. I'd be quite ashamed if I suffered losses and blamed or took it out on others. This is an unreasonable act. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Ultegra134 on August 15, 2025, 07:39:58 PM Those who are blaming everyone else but themselves for blowing away their money on gambling, are going to face issues in the long-run, not only with gambling but in general. Such behaviour sets the ideal conditions to end up addicted and in debt. Who's responsibility is it to have a budget and limit ourselves? It's only ours, and i despise those who do not take accountability for their own mistakes. I understand it's a defense mechanism, but we need to be realistic with what's happening around us.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: coolcoinz on August 15, 2025, 07:40:50 PM I always take responsibility. People who don't are cowards.
It's funny how we attack the government for interfering and not allowing us to move our money around, and then when we lose money we blame the government for not protecting us. You should go with one or the other. Personally I'd like the government to stay away completely and allow people to do what they want, so gambling should be allowed, as well as all forms of investing. If you get scammed, you weren't careful enough. When it comes to gambling, we should educate so that people know the risk, but if they lose money it's all on them. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: silpersurfer on August 15, 2025, 07:51:09 PM If we are inherently careless and unable to take responsibility for our actions, then even if we don't gamble, we will still suffer losses due to our carelessness.
There's no point in blaming the gambling sites or venues we visit, because they will never compensate us for our losses, and they likely won't return our deposited funds, except in the form of winnings. There's no point in blaming ourselves for our own mistakes. Stop being childish and try to reflect on our own carelessness. Casino sites never force their visitors to gamble; we come and deposit our own money. Blaming the gambling sites for our losses when we lose is tantamount to defending our own stupidity and defending our own carelessness. And if we continue to behave in this way, there's no hope of ever escaping gambling problems, including gambling addiction. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Jaycoinz on August 15, 2025, 07:52:00 PM As an adult you aren't supposed to blame anyone for the choices you make especially when they are bad ones. The casino isn't in control of your gambling activities so whatever you lose is just your responsibility. A lot of gamblers that end up losing come up with the excuse that the casino is a scam but this is not really the case, gambling is a game of chance and luck, you can either win or lose that's why it's always advisable to gamble responsibly
Title: Re: Who do you blame?

So many people more especially gamblers are used to putting the blame game on their failure to win in which they are at fault and everyone should be clearly responsible for the choices they make so having a blame game on things is seen as unusual cause for gambling you're aware of your chances of winning being limited and baed on luck. Regardless the issue of blame game should be put aside. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Why blame a game when I already knew right before I even started gambling that there is a high probability of me losing my money to the casino? To me it doesn’t make sense and if anyone should do this then I’d think of it as just a mechanism that they use to try to lessen the mental stress of them losing to the casino, because I think all gamblers already know that the outcomes of gambling isn’t certain and no matter how good the setup or preparation may look, there’s still a high chance of you losing to the casino. I have never put the blame of me losing on the casino before, as long as it’s provable that I actually lost then there’s no need to start witch hunting the casino. I simply just take my L and hope for a better outcome next time. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

However, I also understand the people who puts the blame to either the casino or the authority If they have not done their part to the growing problem of gambling addiction. Sometimes, when people are out of control, the things they got hooked up to is the one that needs a reform or regulated to somehow put a control over those people who can't for themselves. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, it is us who are responsible to every actions and decisions we make. Gambling is not for the weak minded, otherwise, you'll get addicted to it.

You can never blame anyone in gambling. On the one hand, gambling companies are promoting them in various ways to grow their business. And when I go there to gamble, all the profit and loss are my own responsibility. If someone asks you to jump into the fire, will you jump there? You will never do this because you know that you are certain to die there. But even knowing that you can lose when you gamble, you gamble because you have greed in you. Why do you know that you can win a lot at any time? So where you will be very happy if you win, you will have to take the responsibility if you lose.

I think the opposite is true: if a person understood that the casino was to blame for their losing their money, then it would be a mistake to blame themselves.

That is why, in gambling, you need to prepare your mind; it is a game that can't be predicted. You can see what you didn't expect. That is why it is important for gamblers to use the money that they can afford to lose in gambling, because sometimes the game might seem so difficult when one is already losing. Whether the game is difficult or not, there is no need to be angry with the game because there is no need to expect much from gambling. When one has already planned to gamble with the amount that can be afforded to lose and is not expecting anything, no matter how the game becomes, there is no need to get angry.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: alastantiger on August 15, 2025, 11:48:50 PM Very correct dude! We don't have to blame people that introduce us to gambling when we are not doing well as gamblers. This is always our fault because there is no one that forced us to gamble, it's all our decisions to gamble and when we start making profit, most times we don't thank people that have helped us. The only time that we should be blaming people that introduced us to gambling is when they didn't introduce us correctly and made us go through paths of wrong thinking. When someone tells you that gambling can make you rich and then you begin to have this mentality then they have lead you through the wrong path and without finding out on time that your doing the wrong thing, you'll be lost that it becomes difficult to help you again. Gambling can make you money but that shouldn't be your main reason for doing it. Do it as a way of having fun and you won't be carried away with the temptations that come from seeing others winning big rewards then wishing you can experience the same outcomes.

Indeed. It is the individual choice whether to join gambling or not. We can't blame the casinos or government because it is our own choice. The casinos never force us or invite us to join the gambling games. It is our own interest to go to casinos and chooses the gambling games. If there is something bad happening, it is surely our own responsibility.Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? If we don't want to lose money in gambling, we shouldn't go to casinos. Not everyone deserves to gamble because gambling isn't for the people who can't control emotion and dream too high. In many occasion, we already discussed many times that a gambler should have good self-control and think realistically. That's why underage can't join gambling because they still can't control emotion and have no realistic mind. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Many people are used to apportion blames on others and is very bad, it doesn't speak good of you as a person but rather it blindfold you from the actual truth.
But taking responsibility in every actions in life only gives you a chance of repentance and making corrections to was a positive change. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Although, there are times that it will give back double what you spent which is really surprising. The thing is, we don't really know what could happen so if we want to feel good after losing then we can blame the casino for it. That way, it could maybe lift some of the stress that we felt while we are gambling and losing.
Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: @nn@_pen9 on August 16, 2025, 04:30:24 AM As an adult you aren't supposed to blame anyone for the choices you make especially when they are bad ones. The casino isn't in control of your gambling activities so whatever you lose is just your responsibility. A lot of gamblers that end up losing come up with the excuse that the casino is a scam but this is not really the case, gambling is a game of chance and luck, you can either win or lose that's why it's always advisable to gamble responsibly Yes, whatever we do, of course we do it consciously, right? And I agree with you, we shouldn't blame anyone except ourselves. When we make a deposit and before playing, it is important to consider it carefully and be prepared to face the consequences of that decision, whether we lose or win. Yes, by gambling responsibly, we can control everything, be it emotions, finances or anything else, and also realize that gambling is a game of chance and there is no guarantee of winning or getting rich.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

It's part of some people in the gambling industry.If we consider being an adult with age then we can say that age is nothing but just a number because we actually have this set of people around they of age enough to be regarded as adults but all their behaviors will proves otherwise, being able to accept ones responsibilities of actions is called maturity and it has a lot to do with being in charge of your own world whether in good or bad conditions without sentiment or blaming anyone, you can't take credit to yourself when things are good and blame anyone when it is the opposite, of course there are forks like that which is wrong.

Does the blames eventually bring back their money to their personal account? This same people that ends up blaming the government, the casino and the game, still ends up going back to the casino to gamble more the next day.

If you think differently, you'll see that problem gamblers often blame the bookie & regulators for not doing sufficient to ward off harm, not just a matter of personal choice. We could also see the responsible gambling message as a strategy that defend the industry while placing blame on bettor.

Gambling is not a way to make money for entertainment or a get-rich-quick scheme. Gambling can never be a part of our lives, so I don't blame anyone for losing while gambling. When our greed works, we are forced to make wrong decisions and then the risk of losing our money increases. We cannot say anything specific about the future, it is not possible to say for sure whether I will win or lose by betting. Therefore, a person who gambles normally and maintains discipline cannot blame anyone for gambling. If I lose money through gambling, I don't blame anyone else for it. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Is your comment exactly correct, those who gambling often blame Casino. But they ever say they lose all the money for their mistakes. However, there are many reasons behind the government will legalize the casino, such as getting a large amount of revenue. Moreover, the government always wants to collect taxes in different ways. That's why we can take several steps. Such a healthy brain gambling has to be gambling, so that I can protect myself.

When I lose in a single slot I blame that slot and I say to myself why I am such an idiot that keep playing this slot, when I keep losing in a lot of slots from the same provider I like blaming the provider especially Pragmatic since I almost always play their slots because the lowest possible bet.

But in a situation where a person understands that they are unlikely to be able to outsmart the casino, it is normal to blame themselves for being naive.

In my opinion, you have entered the gambling game prepared for any outcome of winning or losing. In that situation, if you are defeated by manipulation, it is a regret and at the end of the day you will be responsible for yourself. In conclusion, it can be said that I like to gamble through my favourite casino site, so if it deliberately loses me, I do not blame them for that.

Blame shouldn’t be placed on casinos, the government, or other people , at the end of the day, the outcome depends entirely on the individual’s own choices. It will always be an individual's responsibility because it is our own choice. The government and casinos never force us to gamble, it is our own decision to join gambling. So it makes no sense if we blame the government or casinos. We are free to join gambling or not, it purely depends on our own consideration. For example, you don't gamble because you have your own reason to avoid gambling. Choosing the option, you have no consequence to accept from the government or the casino.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Ricardo11 on August 18, 2025, 05:00:00 PM Laying blames on casinos or even the government won't change the idea that the bet is made by the individuals. Outside control may affect, but the decision to gamble is mainly a personal one. I believe that taking responsibility for any lose is much a healthy approach, if not you continue going round errors rather than learning from them. And once a gambler is too much biased and doesn’t want to take responsibility for their own decisions, then it becomes a major problem for them to grow from that level that they are, as they will not only be good at doing that with gambling but also with other things. They will always look for excuses to blame others for their actions instead of taking the fall and learning from their mistakes so as to avoid it next time.They will continue to walk continuously but still they will not be able to let go of their expectations, that is, they will always have their false expectations, and because of this false expectation of luck, they continue to gamble more and more. And this matter certainly causes a lot of deep harm for them. If people do not learn from mistakes, they can never improve. And thus, those who fall into this cycle of gambling and if they do not understand the right thing in time, or if they do not think of getting out of it even after understanding, then it will certainly cause a lot of deep harm. Here, the power to decide is completely yours, casinos are never forcing you to gamble, you can refrain from it if you want. But if you continue to ignore the right thing, it will never be a reason for your good luck but rather a cause of more disaster. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Odusko on August 18, 2025, 05:02:07 PM For me basically gamblers should grow to a point where their understand that gambling is a high risk thing and for that they must prepare themselves to the point that their can build the bases that keep them at a stable position at most regardless of what happens,. I believe so much that those that complain about losing and blaming casinos are the guy's that came into gambling with aim to win at most and coming in with sure bets that eventually disappoint them.

The government can not force anyone to go into gambling neither can they stop everyone from gambling no matter how hard they tried it can not be possible. The problem with people is that some people went ahead to abuse gambling by going to the extreme where if they don't gamble they will become restless and might even want to borrow if they have gone far or dip in it.

Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Personal responsibility is so crucial in life but many governments pander to the masses who fall for scams or instantly blame others for their personal issues. Nobody is forcing people on to gambling sites, people make many choices and decisions before depositing money, along with every time they decide to participate in a game - they are free to stop at any moment in time, but think they are smarter than the casinos. They are not smarter and casinos make millions of dollars every single year from all these small acts that collectively mount up to huge profits. You are the person in charge of your own destiny, stop expecting others to protect you from wasteful ways that you can spend your money and take control of your financial decisions.

It is very important because no government wants its country to face economic disaster and always wants a country to be self-sufficient in economy, that is why they allow some prohibited things or objects. For example, no matter how harmful smoking or drinking alcohol is, the government of a country does not oppose it, rather they allow it for business and trade, for production. Similarly, the government of a country earns a lot of revenue from gambling, from which a country can reduce a lot of foreign pressure. So no matter how much drug addiction or gambling is one of the main reasons for the destruction of the youth in a country, the government will never ban it, but rather allow it. But even then, if someone personally destroys himself by being addicted to gambling or drug addiction, no one will be responsible for it, not even the government. He himself is responsible for his destruction.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Pandu Geddon on August 20, 2025, 03:30:10 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?

They never expect it will help them in having anything positive, people who play for fun and have a solid strategy rarely experience problems like these, as they understand the consequences of their actions and are prepared this gives them peace of mind and better results. A healthy mentality is crucial in casino games as it allows gamblers to maintain balance and make informed decisions, however this approach never works for everyone as there are many different views and arguments about casinos and losing to them.

Even if we consider the example of a guy traveling, who is thinking between two activities on the weekend: to go to a casino or to play billiards, then having learned that casinos are prohibited in the country where he ended up, he will simply shrug his shoulders and go play billiards.

Post by: Fiatless on August 22, 2025, 06:26:16 PM This is normal to put frustration on oneself, feel disappointed for making the wrong picks and sometimes shift frustration towards players and clubs for casting a bet slip and turn it in to a normal football banter for that week and that's all for those of us who play only soccer bets. It's okay to be frustrated and sometimes angry when you don't win. You blame coaches for their faulty tactics and referees for wrong officiating. But what makes you a mature gambler is taking full responsibility for your actions. Blaming the casino for the outcome of games is wrong because you were not coerced into placing bets. If everyone gambled in a way most of us do, there would be fewer pointless lawsuits against casinos. Some lawsuits against gambling are mainly because of accusations of scam or poor services and not necessarily because of addiction. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: mvdheuvel1983 on August 22, 2025, 06:27:40 PM It's usually newbies that will rather shift blames on the casino instead of taking the responsibility for their gambling decisions and results. The blame they shift on the casino probably makes them feel satisfied or less frustrated but at same time it builds up problems for them such that they would not want to learn from their mistakes and it is very bad character to exhibit. Not just newbies but most gamblers blame their losses on the casinos when they lose big instead of accepting defeat and putting taking the blame for gambling with the amount they could afford to lose, it's no longer new that casinos do not force people to gamble and the rules is very clear the casino doesn't force anyone to continue gambling when they are losing but the greed of wanting to win back the amount that is lost has always been the reason why gamblers end up losing so much in gambling. Gambling is risky every gambler should be mindful of the mistakes they make and take responsibilities instead of shifting the blames to the casinos.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Mame89 on August 22, 2025, 06:38:47 PM Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines. Yes. I gamble consciously and don't blame others. Because gambling is a personal decision, blaming others is incredibly foolish. Even when we register on gambling sites, they ask for age and then there are signs stating that the decision to gamble is a personal choice, not coercion. The reason for the age restriction is because age influences our decision-making process before gambling.Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens. Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? We humans are logical creatures all actions and decisions are based on rational consideration. Therefore, human decisions and choices are influenced by information and careful consideration, including when it comes to gambling. When we gamble, it's our choice, and the consequences are our responsibility, not the government, casinos, or anyone else. Furthermore, gambling has existed since ancient times, so every decision to gamble is your own, including the risks involved. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Yablee0 on August 24, 2025, 03:41:16 AM Someone who understands responsibility and accepts their losses can be considered an adult who can answer for their actions. However, the world is such that it is easier to blame all your mistakes on others. There are many to blame: a difficult childhood, a bad country, and teachers who did not explain and educate enough. Gambling is also on the list of the guilty; some believe that it is not entertainment but a way to earn money. Blaming everyone around is childish behavior, and until people understand this, they will be unhappy, since the way out of their accusations lies within themselves. Sure, many people are always looking for where to drop their blames, nobody want to take responsibility of their actions and that's the problem we are having, casino or other gambling companies never for a day call or force you from your home to come and play rather you walked by your self to their own office and play it all by yourself, and if anything later goes wrong you will be looking for who to be blamed, that is unreasonable, casino or any of the companies always indicates in their terms and conditions that you must be up to 18year, which simply means you must be an adult, up to the age of accountability and being able to take decisions by your self.So in essence is that let's try and build up that mindset of being held for our own actions, It only makes us a better people.

In gambling, it is clear that every gambler has to take the maximum risk of money, if we can accept this fact, then we will never blame anyone else.
Winning and losing in gambling is a very normal thing, but when the amount of losses is much higher than winning, then we actually have to take a break for a while and think about why we are losing regularly. There are actually many reasons why a gambler loses in gambling, such as he may not be able to make the right decision, he may not be able to choose the right team while betting, and he is in too much of a hurry. If these common problems are the main reasons for losing, then I think that if a gambler takes a break in between gambling, at least he will not have to lose later due to this problem.

Those who blame others for their losses are plainly irresponsible. Yes, they're irresponsible and are not likely to make any progress. Gamblers should own up to whatever the outcome of their actions is. There's a reason gambling has age restriction not to allow minors into it. One of such reasons is taking responsibility for one's actions while on it. Why pass the buck when things go sour like the biblical Adam but take the glory alone when it goes well? I like those who blame themselves for what action(s) they should've taken that they didn't take or what action they took that they shouldn't have taken. That's the way to go. Those ones are men enough.Avoid anyone who shifts blame so you can guard your peace of mind. They will blame you for not even brushing their own teeth. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

However, if this behavior continues, it’s worth seeking professional help, it will be cheaper in the long run.

People easily try to shift blame in order not to be held accountable for their losses, they thing it is something wise, but they’re just killing their self confidence and it will affect them outside the scope of gambling.

This is the best way to think as a gambler, if you can't take responsibility for your decisions or actions then you should not be gambling In that first place...taking full responsibility for your losses also makes you become a better gambler and this happens when you start learning from your mistakes and becoming more careful with that decisions that you make when you are gambling, blaming others won't help Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: ChocolateBitcoinK on August 24, 2025, 10:48:24 PM I think that there should be no such thing as blaming someone for our losses , because we must be responsible for our actions, If we play in a casino and lose for whatever reason, it is our own fault, and no one else's. Actually, there is no logic in blaming someone else for your loss, did someone give you too much hope for gambling? Did they force you to gamble? It's your money, so if you wanted to stay away from gambling, could they have done anything? No, in fact, we have no logical reason to blame others, you gambled with your money with full knowledge, so if you lose, you will be the only one responsible, there is nothing to blame others for.Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: tread93 on August 24, 2025, 11:33:27 PM Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines. Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens. Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Oh yeah I take full responsibility and beat mhself up for it pretty bad when I do stupid shit in general but especially with gambling. This is my secret trick to help me stay away from gambling for long periods of time ;) I mean dont get me wrong sometimes casinos and games can definitely mess you up but at the end of the day its all your own choice Unless someone has a gun to your head literally forcing you to gamble but when that happens you have bigger problems to tackle lol. Yes the blame game is a complete cop out, there is no excuse other than your own stupidity and losses I am with you 100%. I hope the folks who can't control it get a grip because when gambling you can't play games like this with your money if you can't afford it Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: danherbias07 on August 25, 2025, 11:15:16 AM Accepting losses is one of the things that shows maturity in a person’s gambling activities. For those who accept their losses, it becomes easier to control themselves and avoid falling deeper into gambling, such as chasing losses that only lead to even greater losses. But unfortunately, not many gamblers have the maturity to accept their losses. Most tend to blame the platform or the game they are playing, suspecting it is rigged or involves cheating intentionally designed to trap them. When in fact, the main problem lies with their own inability to control themselves, which causes them to lose more than they should. Yes, I agree with that. We must first accept losses before we even try to blame another. I mean, it's our decision to gamble in the first place, and I think we also knew the risk before we even tried to gamble our money. The house edge will always get the upper hand, and as long as we have accepted that fact, then I guess we can enjoy gambling more. Of course, we can win sometimes, but it's up to us whether we will keep on going or not. Another decision that must be made, and we cannot blame anyone if we make the wrong one. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Fredomago on August 25, 2025, 11:20:47 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? I take full responsibility for my loss.

Post by: iBaba on August 25, 2025, 11:46:43 AM You must take all the responsibility in gambling. Because here you are gambling knowing the risk, so you cannot blame anyone for your loss. And you cannot blame anyone for your stupidity because it is completely your personal matter. If you cannot control yourself from gambling and cannot keep your limits, then it will be completely your personal failure. And no one will take the responsibility for this failure. It is definitely good if you have some unique strategies that can keep you away from the deep addiction of gambling. Because without good strategies, you cannot control yourself because there are many accidents in gambling and because of this you cannot control yourself easily. Unless someone has a gun to your head literally forcing you to gamble but when that happens you have bigger problems to tackle lol. Yes the blame game is a complete cop out, there is no excuse other than your own stupidity and losses I am with you 100%. I hope the folks who can't control it get a grip because when gambling you can't play games like this with your money if you can't afford it Honestly, that's why knowledge, discipline and self control are everything you need to be in gambling because if you cannot be able to set boundaries and limits to yourself then at the end you will pay the price for your inactions and the prices you pay for gambling is grade by grade, especially depending on the amount of money you have staked into it. It's more money, more risks and more failures, more damages. People talk big about building strategies when gambling but the biggest kind of strategy you should build lies on your ability of quickly knowing when you should continue or stop and making such decisions immediately instead of allowing your emotions take control of you. At the end of the day gambling is a personal decision you make to your self and your taste so whatever comes thereafter you should be able to take the full responsibility of the consequences instead of playing the blame game besides nobody forced you there in the beginning so you should be bold and man enough to take your responsibilities with full chest. In gambling, never allow anyone to persuade you into taking any responsibilities when it is your money and investments at stake. This is the best way to think as a gambler, if you can't take responsibility for your decisions or actions then you should not be gambling In that first place...taking full responsibility for your losses also makes you become a better gambler and this happens when you start learning from your mistakes and becoming more careful with that decisions that you make when you are gambling, blaming others won't help True, acceptance is very important to move forward, if you can't accept and you can't take the blame then better not to gamble or not to involve yourself to any gabling activities, pointing fingers to someone else only shows that you are at huge risk in losing more than you can afford to let go, as you'll keep on pushing forward even you already loses a lot, you will find ways to justify the situation just to continue playing. I've learnt that once you stop blaming people and you begin to take full responsibility of your choices, it will automatically make you to start to learn grow and make smarter moves when taking subsequent decisions. I believe that the moment you begin to shift blames to others by allowing others to control your decisions in gambling, trust me, it is the moment you should agree that you are setting up yourself against losses that are worse than the ones you have encountered in the past. So, you've got to learn how to accept your mistakes, identify the solutions and move forward to the next challenges ahead. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: junder on August 26, 2025, 09:45:16 AM Human nature though has it very difficult to accept defeat, in our daily lives, in our jobs we are always in competition with other people and we want to always do better than them which will lead to recognition and prestige. The same in gambling we as human beings have difficulties to accept losses there and most people simply cannot accept such outcome, they continue to play hoping that one day they will turn the fate to their side and they always blame the game, I was one of them that used to blame the providers and never once until recently blamed myself, since blaming myself, I have greater self-control and I can stay without or with gambling as much time as I want or as I see fit to. That's true, especially with the so-called profit, which of course when we experience a loss, we might not be able to accept it. I mean, most people seem to be like that, but we have to look at the circumstances first because in gambling, I think the losses we can experience are something that is absolutely certain to happen and cannot be avoided, so we should be able to accept it. Moreover, if we can't accept this reality, it will probably make things even more difficult for us. And if it does happen, don't look at others, but look at ourselves to blame.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

For example, when all the cards on the table are opened in a one-on-one game after an all-in and the one who had a good combination of cards in his hands loses.
I have seen this even at international championships in Vegas and it is always a show. But the one who could not win will then remember this for years and regret it. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

If you want to help start with a calm nonjudgmental conversation where you point to specific changes you have noticed. Offer to help find a counselor Gamblers Anonymous or a debt adviser. Help reduce access to money by removing saved cards or asking the bank to block gambling transactions. Set firm boundaries so you do not cover debts or hide losses. Keep records of threats or violence and call emergency services if someone is in immediate danger. Look after your own mental health and talk to someone about how this is affecting you.

A series of sudden wins at an online casino can break the psychological defenses of even the most prepared gambler. Because in fact, such a gambler will be preparing for the fact that the results will, at best, show 50/50: wins and losses. And if suddenly he wins once, then a short time later a second time and immediately a third time, then most likely he will relax a little and think that today is a Lucky Day. And this will be the first step towards the gambler not having a completely cool head when it comes to online casinos or betting. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Just like you said Dr.Bitcoin_Strange that gambling is a game of chance and one can't be too sure if he or she will win or lose, gambling should be done for fun and not just for the money, if you are gambling for the money you will always blame the team that you played to win and they lost and you may also blame the gambling company which is very wrong. However when you are gambling for the fun and you lost you will always blame your skill of prediction and you will just try to improve more on yourself, I really don't like when people blame gambling companies for their lost it is a game so when you lose don't blame anybody because when you win you don't blame people.

Post by: TelolettOm on August 30, 2025, 10:49:09 PM Gambling is not a good idea to get rich by gambling. Gambling is not a way to make money for entertainment or a get-rich-quick scheme. What's your point?Sure, gambling isn't a proper way to be rich because the chance isn't quite high. If someone wants to be rich, it is better to focus on investment. Gambling is a place for entertainment purpose although there is a chance to win the jackpot (big money). It is better to gamble with the money we can afford to lose because it is not possible to predict anything in gambling. If you follow the right rules, it is much easier to avoid losing extra money and maintain self-control. True. Gambling must use safe money. It means we use the amount of money that we afford to lose. Although there is a chance to earn money, there is no guarantee to get certain amount of money. So, we just try luck and enjoy the games with small amount of money.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Sup, I agree, gambling is 100% an individual's own choice and any financial losses are their own responsibility. Although there are some exceptions, like if a casino has exempted a player from gambling at their establishment/platform on request of the person themselves, due to a problematic gambling addiction, then the casino is in the wrong to having let that person gamble again - assuming the person was not hiding his identity and made his name clear to the casino.

Before you decide to bet your money, you should already understand the consequences and rules of gambling. If you're of legal age, you don't need anyone approval to bet, and in my opinion, people of legal age certainly have more logical thinking when taking action. I mean, they're no longer easily influenced by others or even by gambling ads. I think many people have experienced frustration due to consecutive losses, but in that situation, the right attitude is to stop temporarily, not to blame others or the bookie. Therefore, never use gambling for purposes other than entertainment, as it will cause many bad impacts on daily life. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

And unfortunately gambling has slapped a minimum age of 18 because as humans we believe a person at this age should be grown enough to make their own choices as an adult, if age isn't the barrier then whatever greed that follows that pushes people into gambling addiction is on the player themselves and never the gambling platform!

It seems to me that everyone has some kind of limit. The sad part is that some lessons come at a very high cost, and this doesn’t only apply to money but also to close relationships. I can’t fully understand people who break their relationships with loved ones for the sake of gambling, what drives them in such moments, and how they can be helped. After all, gambling is something that can be controlled, it’s enough just to be able to calculate how much money you earn, how much you need for living expenses and essential needs, and what remains for everything else, including gambling.

This is the reason why it's a must to know what you're getting into before playing. Because losing is inevitable in gambling. Hence we should know the consequences to become prepared if worse case happened. It's the same way: when we gamble, we must be prepared to lose the money we deposit. That's why it's important to assess our financial capabilities. Betting within our means is sufficient. Furthermore, blaming or venting emotions for lost money on others is completely unreasonable.Playing in moderation, self control and acceptance (in facing losses) are crucial. If you can't bear losing your money and will just blame the casino or others for your losses, then better to not gamble at all. Unreasonable but expected. Ranting, blaming, venting negative emotions, either through chat or through different means is a way of a gambler to release his madness. Sure, it's not right but there are worse things that could happen if a gambler cannot release that emotion. I've seen streamers who destroyed their keyboards, monitors, and there's even one who smashed his smartphone due to frustration. These kind of actions can be prevented if they can rant their emotions in a chatbox or maybe a channel where it will be welcomed and accepted. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Bitcoin_people on September 01, 2025, 09:00:39 AM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? People never blame themselves but in my opinion people face losses due to people's mistakes. Gambling is definitely a person's own choice if he gambles as he likes and then loses then it is his fault not anyone else's fault. Gambling side does not force a person to gamble but people play there of their own will and if they lose then they blame gambling it should not be done at all. But there are some things that we can blame like the government of a country cannot control everything properly here it makes many kinds of mistakes when we blame them. But in our case we should not blame others but if we focus on what we like later if something goes wrong from there then it is our fault. So I think we should blame ourselves for whatever we do if it is due to loss. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

I mean, excessive greed can manifest itself so much that it makes us weak. And those who were confident yesterday will hate themselves and be hated by their surroundings today. Therefore, if someone doubts, even by 1%, that he will be able to maintain self-control, then such a person should stay away from gambling. After all, this can become the most difficult test in his life, which he may not pass. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Ofcourse people will always have something to put the blame on because it is possible for something to be a reason why one became addicted to gambling to gambling but no one has an excuse to give because because their are people who found their self in the the same condition they never become addicted, if these people can be discipline that means anyone can also be discipline to, so no excuse to give . Instead of looking for who to blame or what to blame it is just better to try to make a change and to to try t be responsible in gambling. If an underage gambles, we blame the government for not setting and implementing laws against children gambling. We also blame the parents for not raising responsible children. When adults get addicted, they blame their peer group, they blame the casino for designing addictive games and possibly blame their family for financial burden. As a rule, stories about strong addictions have many variables and, of course, the gambler or bettor himself is to blame, but the fact is that the environment, as well as education, and upbringing by parents - all this influences him. Of course, no one forces us at gunpoint to press a button in an online casino to place bets or deposit money, but this is not an absolutely 100% decision of a single gambler. I believe that to a certain extent something pushes them to do this. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

I agree, blaming others for your own losses is a sign of irresponsibility...This is true because any gambler who is with his right senses will never blame anyone for his or her lose, how can you possibly blame someone for losing when the person is not there with you when you were seriously making your prediction. Though sometimes you May be getting opinion from people around you or friends more especially in offline gamble but you have every right to stick to the one that is suitable for you. And Yeah, that's how it is sometimes when making a prediction your friends may be bringing suggestions and sometimes you can get distracted this is why I don't team with friends when making prediction I don't like taking other people's prediction, though I can remembered taken my friends suggestions and it failed but I don't blame him for that because I know that gambling is just a game of luck.

This shouldn't happen, even for the beginners. I'm sure the beginners must understand the consequence when they decide to play gambling games. I agree that playing gambling games is basically our own intention. So, we must blame ourselves if we did mistakes such as losing huge money or addicted to the games. It is just strange that gamblers blame others because there is no element of compulsion to play the gambling games. Well, in my own opinion, everyone who wants to gamble, they must ensure that they are matured enough. That's why at least someone should be 18 years old to join gambling.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Yes we should actually do take responsibility for every loss of ours, because gambling is not a thing anyone can be forced into doing it. Tho some game's don't go as expected or predicted taking football for example a very big team get beaten by a small team, which isn't supposed to be when that big team has over 70% chance of winning at the end of the day we will want to blame the game we played on but the truth is we it's our responsibility and nobody cause it's a won or loose game, one must definitely happen, that's why so many people see gambling as a game of luck. So blaming the government or even casino doesn't change the fact that you made the choice your and not forced into doing it. My advice for any new gambler have this in your mind you own your win and you also own your loss, so take responsibility it nobody choice but your choice.Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens.

And obviously, they're the target of these gambling platforms even if you check some statistics, majority of those who lose money are people who are in the poor side while wealthy people and are financially literate are not the common victim of gambling platforms. These people who gambles are those who are hoping to have a life-changing win from gambling and that's the reason why they gamble.

Because in the end, it becomes a selfish way for some people to pretend that they are not guilty for what they have done, and this is actually the most cowardly way to avoid admitting the mistakes they have made.Many gamblers do this because they cannot accept defeat but also do not want to be blamed or held responsible for their own mistakes, so they try to shift the blame to a third party, especially the website that manages the gambling. In the end, if they realize that this is a foolish thing to do, they should try to admit that they made a mistake, but their ego seems to be much bigger than admitting the mistakes they have actually made.

So many people just don't have what it takes to handle certain things especially failure. If everybody's expectation to get a win is fulfilled, then the gambling industry will collapse in no time. I actually placed my betting on hold recently after experiencing consecutive losses. That is literally the best way i could help myself because i understood that betting is far beyond a 50/50 chance of winning.

Post by: Mahanton on September 02, 2025, 11:17:31 AM Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines. In this case, nobody should be blamed for anything of these thing whether the government, parents, gambling platforms, or the stations or events promoting gambling casinos. Everyone that is into gambling should understand that this activity is not triggered by more of what we see but more of our interest to make money from betting.

Taking responsibility for losses is part of the process blaming others only creates excuses and avoids accountability anyone who chooses to gamble needs to understand the risks and accept both the gains and the losses as their own decisions the reality is gambling is built so the house always has the edge so without discipline and self control the chances of losing increase dramatically. Instead of pointing fingers its better to focus on self awareness and managing impulses those who set limits and treat gambling as entertainment usually handle it in a healthier way while people chasing fast money often end up with regrets in the end no one is forced into gambling the decision rests on personal choice and mindset.

Post by: iBaba on September 02, 2025, 12:16:39 PM We all have to be accountable on how we are gambling and not that we shift blame on others, gambling is more of a personal decision than shifting of the blame on other people, we should know this, that whatever happens in it, we are going to be more responsible for it, because its all about us and we should not allow for the others to take the full responsibility of what we are expected to be in charge for, also, we should not shift blame on anyone for any failure experienced in gambling. Sometimes gamblers shift the blame for losing to others or the casino because they are frustrated which is normal but we must learn to own up to our mistakes snd decisions..gambling is something that's done out of your win free will, for the fact that no one is forcing you to do it simply means that you are responsible for the outcomes of your actions...this is common with beginners because they are not mentally mature yet In life generally, if you're found of shifting blames to people on certain steps you take in your life you will always find yourself in a situation where you remain in the loop, swinging between the bad and ugly side of life. There's no point hiding from the shadows that cast the light of truthfumess in you by shying away from your responsibilities. The worse part is, if you keep shifting blames to people, you will get to a point where you cannot grow in life because it only means you're not bold enough to face your realities.

To be fair, that ""it's all on the player"" perspective is too straightforward. Although individual responsibility is important, casinos intentionally create bigotry by allowing near-misses and ""losses disguised as wins"" to keep employees working even when they are losing. regulators are actually reducing these because they increase the intensity of play. Additionally the house edge means that the longer you play, the closer you get to expected losses, chasing is not just a lack of self control, it is a mathematical calculation. so yeah when I own my bets sometimes, of course it is naive to act as though oversight and environment design are unimportant.

This is same thing applicable to gambling where gambling is allowed by the government, it's been tax by the government and the gambler gamble away with momey.

Essentially, once we decide to gamble, it's a choice we've made, so we should be prepared for the risk of losing our deposited money, especially since the chance of losing is greater than the chance of winning.

And in order not to blame anyone, play only with the money that you can afford to lose. No one forces you to gamble, it is your decision, so there is no point in blaming anyone. Gambling requires order, like any other business involving money, if you manage it chaotically, you will lose more than you earn. What does chaotic mean? Isn't the game process itself chaotic? We can't control it. We can only monitor the bet level and nothing more. For example, take the same slots. How can you determine when you'll win? That's chaos, isn't it? So there's no point in observing anything. We came to the casino to enjoy the game and have fun. We pay money for that, and sometimes we even win something.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Gambling is sweet when you allocate smaller amounts and also gambling for fun without at least attaching so much meaning to money used in gambling. this has been my advice to people in gambling, anyone who is into gambling knows that gambling is not something will assure of I believe that in gambling will have to know that the risk that is involved can occur at any time, so management of risk is what makes us to be a gambler and the controlling of our emotions whenever we lose is also what makes you a gambler be because you know quite well that gambling can be good or bad at the same time because it's not every time that you Gamble that you will get a profit a profit in gambling is something that comes unexpectedly so therefore gambling is not a sure thing that you will benefit from it.Title: Re: Who do you blame?

On the one hand, we can understand gamblers who try to blame others for their failures, because human psychology is such that they do not want to feel guilty. But on the other hand, every person earns money through hard work. And if he is ready to lose this money, then he must understand that his work will be in vain only because of his own actions and decisions. No one presses the buttons for the gambler, only he himself. And if the casino does not allow you to win, then the money will be reset and the gambler himself will have to experience poverty, and it will be only his fault. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Yes, blaming the loss on the gambling site or other people is not really healthy. In the end, it's the decision of each person, and they have the responsibility to take the blame of their actions.

It's really a choice indeed. If my friend give me a booking code to try and I eventually did, but unfortunately I lost the bet. There is no point in ignoring the person and there's also no point to plain the person either. Gamble is for fun and sharing a bet with other gamblers is also art of the fun. Of course, if you blame me for giving you a booking code that put you at loss, I wouldn't give you any booking code again because it shows that you are not a matured gambler. Blaming someone for your losses wouldn't bring them back because he didn't force you to bet on the game. You wanted to win and don't know how to go about it was why you listened to him so why not blame yourself for listening to him. I find it crazy if they blame us since after all we cannot control the result. Maybe better if this situation occur we should explain it to them so well that even if we give those codes to them there's still a chance that they might lose their bets. With these for sure their expectation would lower down and I think there's no situation like blaming us would gonna happen. If they still blame us despite of those efforts we made I guess I will stop talking to them since they are so immature for doing those actions. But if those situation to me I don't blame anyone since I am liable with each actions I made so hopefully other think the same way to avoid getting in trouble. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?

When your emotions kick in, you don’t care about whatever plan you prepared once you hit your limit, especially during or after a red streak. Nah, it’s easier said than done to control your emotions in that situation.

Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Cookdata on September 03, 2025, 04:56:24 PM Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? For the very fact that you took the decision to gamble you should be responsible for anything that comes both positive and negative but basically most gamblers always prefer to shift the blames from themselves to the gambling sites or whoever. Buts it's required to gamble responsibly and at the same time it's applicable to take responsibility for any outcome be ot a loss or a win when the time comes. Blame games is a waste of time you know. If the casino isn't manipulating your games, there is no reason to blame anyone but yourself who wanted to gamble in the first place. I still remember a cousin brother that went ahead to gamble his masters school fee when he was supposed to be in Canada by summer few years back, he used the money to gamble until there was nothing left and he attempted to harm his life but was later rush to the hospital. He is a change man now but till date, he regreted his actions because we didn't know what he was thinking in the first place. You are gambling with school fee that was raised by family for 6 months struggle so you can have better but the next thing he thought was to double the some amount, that was how he was doing until there was nothing left to fall back to until he decided to threaten his own life, I never knew life is that easy for some people or probably he was looking for a way so they don't blame him for his actions but that's was crude.

They expect to make a profit, and so in my opinion, the payout percentage isn't exactly fair. Well you cannot blame the casino completely at the same time because for them too they are out there to make profits and ofcourse the gamblers will have to loose a game for them to start counting their profits as a business. As a gambler it is important to understand this and make sure to protect yourself that you are not loosing to the point you have to start looking for whom to throw the blames at securing you feel you were deserving of a win and lost, knowing you are depending on luck ti an extent, you should put to consideration that you are going to manage your bankroll to the point whereby you do get chance with your bankroll been in the best position to make you money and not you loosing all to the casino at once. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Rabata on September 03, 2025, 06:03:46 PM Gambling plays a major role in our emotions.

This is why gamblers should always keep their emotions in check and bet small amounts. Controlling emotions in gambling is a difficult task. Those who are able to control emotions can certainly do well in gambling. They can control their greed. They can prevent excessive gambling. They can prevent loss chasing after losing. Gamblers are basically driven by emotions. Those who can control their emotions in gambling will reduce the chances of getting addicted.

Every gambler should limit their activities, and play responsibly, the casino does not force anyone to sit at the game table, a gambler cannot quit gambling solely because of his greed and emotions. Everything depends on your own responsibility, if you really want to quit gambling, you can definitely do it, but if you give more priority to your greed and emotions, and always have the desire to win through gambling, then you will naturally never be able to quit gambling at the right time. The problem is only in people's expectations and mentality, if someone plays with a limited budget for the sake of entertainment, and strictly controls himself, that is, limiting the amount of play and stopping gambling at the right time in any situation, then it will definitely be under control, and will not be a cause of addiction. But when someone thinks of it as a means of income, then the main problem arises, then he cannot accept every loss in any way, and this is why if someone keeps losing regularly or in large amounts, it is the result of his own decision, so if you want to avoid big losses in gambling, you must play responsibly, set limits, because winning or losing in gambling is all a matter of luck, so expectations must be limited here.

It all means nothing because each individual does it without any coercion from any party, the attitude of a gambler must actually be able to accept whatever happens after gambling. There's no benefit to blaming others for losses; it only escalates the situation. Imagine if the person being blamed doesn't accept what the main perpetrator did, and physical contact might occur. But if the person being blamed becomes emotional, it's understandable. Blaming others for losses is unreasonable, as gambling is essentially voluntary.Losing is a delayed luck (in gambling), moreover the result will always revolve around two axes (winning and losing), so there is no one to blame other than yourself who willingly risks money that you cannot afford to lose when you lose the bet. I think those who blame others should reflect, as this kind of action is highly unethical. As you said, it's done without coercion. Even if a friend forces us to gamble, we can still refuse. Title: Re: Who do you blame? Post by: Sonia_123 on September 03, 2025, 10:50:12 PM But why will a gambler only gamble with just the mindset of winning alone without making plans for failure? Gambling is never a one way thing, you win today and lose another day that's just part of the industry. And someone who loses a bet shouldn't be ashamed, as there is nothing to be ashamed of, because I haven't seen any gambler who hasn't lost a bet, so feeling ashamed is not really ideal. I know that someone who just lost a bet do feel bad momentarily, but after that moment a gambler should pick himself up and try again next time. In gambling self control should be the ultimate so that you don't end up shifting your blame to anyone. Having a budget and setting a limit in time and bankroll should be your first priority in other to help you manage your gambling activities properly because as soon as you avoid these first important steps,there you start having problem for yourself which can lead to addiction and we all know it starts from chasing your losses, not spending what you can afford to lose, borrowing to gamble e.t.c.

That's correct. It is important that we understand that they mean business, which also means that they are going to make profits, and it will come from the gamblers. Not the other way around. If we can accept this fact as soon as possible, it's easier to accept losses because we know they are not a charity that will just hand out some money for us. If we are lucky enough, we can win and walk away. But if we come back, that's when mistakes could happen. All we can do is rely on luck and be wise about the winnings.

Thanks Promocodeudo, there are people who don't like what i say, and it seems really absurd to me since i think i speak with grace and rationality.

This means that we need support or evaluation from a psychologist to see how our mental state is, so that we will know what to do. But it seems to be more complex and a beginner who plays then becomes an addict will never come to a psychologist, they just keep playing without caring about anything.

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game? Whether you know the consequences or not is assume that you know it before getting started take so instance you start gambling without knowing the consequences unfortunately you run into trouble, did you think if they are judging this case that they are going to consider the fact that you didn't know the consequences? I'm sure that the answer will be no, no, so anyone who is into gambling should get ready to face whatever outcome he or she will get whether in the near future or maybe decade. So I see no reason why we should be blaming someone for our misfortune when we already know the consequences about gambling, even though some people may not know the consequences but you don't necessarily need to put the blame on something. And even if I'm close to such person I would ask him or her that what were you thinking that made you not to read the terms and conditions before going into it. Title: Re: Who do you blame?

Ultimately, as you said, the main thing is to enjoy the game and learn from each experience. This makes everything healthier and more fun!

Most people do not like to accept that they were wrong, that it was their fault that they lost, it is something that many see as natural, not me , I am not ashamed of that, in casinos and games it is normal to lose, what is not normal is to lose a lot of money, because to bet you should only do what you are willing to lose and nothing more.Though it's really hard to admit it when you are in the situation most of the time gambler find someone to point their finger, especially when they are losing money, instead of keeping the full responisbilities inside they will find other option to deny their failure in terms of controlling their emotions, it's always better to keep in mind that gambling is risky and needs to be minimize using spare money, it saves your butt losing what you can't afford if you have that kind of mentality.

And let it lead to nowhere for him. You need to have strength of character and intelligence to understand that we ourselves are responsible for our future and it is we who live in the world that we create with our decisions and actions. Unfortunately, many deny this and continue to live, trying not to burden their conscience, but to shift responsibility to others for their incompetent actions. |
