Agree with your opinion, if we as gamblers when we lose are happy to accept it then we are wise gamblers because it is not easy for a gambler to just accept defeat, most of them will get angry and express their emotional feelings by gambling continuously. continuously in order to take revenge for the defeat he experienced.
And if you have thoughts like what you said, namely, if you lose, you should stop and not think about how to recover the losses that have occurred, then this is one of the correct self-control steps, if done well it will happen. . Hopefully it will be useful for us in the future.
Yeah, we should accept our loss and try to a wise gambler. We can avoid continue gambling because that can increase our loss and our emotion can also increase. Many gamblers experienced that so we must prevent it before we regret it. Gambling for fun will be better than gambling for financial benefit because we know that gambling will not gives much winning to us and even we can loss much money. We don't have to think about recovering our loss because that will not easy and we can loss more money. However, we must have self-control to hold our emotion increase and only used gambling for fun.

Being able to accept the responsibility that the lost money isn't going to come back soon, helps a gambler not to go for the lost money. Instead, it makes the gambler to observe closely on the game and begin to enjoy the process. As he'd win some time while on the game. Chasing on the lost money is like panic gambling, where the gambler doesn't possess any control over his actions. Gambling for fun is way too better than going for money. Why then do gamblers have a job or business? The casino is a place of fun and engagement, communicating with other gamblers in the vicinity. Some try to talk to us about their strategies or where we are getting it wrong in the game. Players who tend to revenge like Zuzie said, are not quite good gamblers. And they end up very sad and upset over gambling. Most of them brought the bad publicity moving around the society on gambling. Although the responsible players still exist, but the society now tag everyone as addicted due to the bad act of those who have the intention of taking revenge on the house. As if it's a world fight.

Every kind of addiction will affect us mentally, physically, and financially so don't just draw the line only under gambling. I may have seen videos of such kind but I don't remember any of it because it doesn't really relates to me and I know how hard to recovery from any addiction from my personal expereince (not gambling).

Addictions works almost similarly, regardless of where the problem is emerging from, most gamblers who got addicted weren't just careless, some happened to be responsible, at the end of the process they became addicted. Meaning that whenever, we engage into any activity that has some form of addicting vibe, we have to be careful about it and not run short of staying responsible in the game. We always have things we love doing, until we can't control the reason why we started doing those things. Hence, addiction sets in and the trouble continues to torment the victim, mentally, financially, and many other ways. It's not simple to escape addiction, due to the fact that we tend to enjoy those activities, which kept us addicted.
The addiction thing is really bad at the beginning of something there is no addiction it depends on the control power of the person. Doing something constantly will eventually become an addiction. Many careless people can't quit gambling despite the money and odds. Despite many attempts to stay away from gambling addiction many people end up not being able to stay away from gambling. It's like drug addiction. Betting is fun to be caught occasionally and addiction is less likely if you are careful.

Like drug addiction, nobody who takes substances that's strong enough or immune to getting addicted. Gamblers who are not careful about dealing with gambling will almost get into problem gambling. It's hard to escape gambling addiction alone, they need to open up to people around them that they're facing lots of trouble in their gambling activities. However, when a person practices something all the time, they can still control themselves to an extent and avoid getting addicted. That's why gamblers are advised to take a break or vacation after a while of engaging into a nonstop gambling session. Playing for fun still counts as the best form of gambling, but nobody is ready to be happy when they go home with no money left on them, hence gambling for fun requires that the gambler doesn't wager lots of money that will get him angry if he doesn't win.

In my perspective who want to enjoy money and pleasure in gambling have one motive and those who prioritise only money have another motive. There are many people in the gambling world who consider gambling as a source of income. There are very few people who operate gambling successfully out there. Professional gamblers are different from regular gamblers. For ordinary gamblers I think gambling can be nothing but a source of pleasure. Whenever we visualise gambling in a different dimension, we will suffer there. But if the amount of money we use in gambling within the control of a gambler then gambling can be enjoyable anytime.
Each gamblers will have their own motive and every people free to decide what is the motive they have. But they need to understand about the risk behind of that motive because many people doesn't want to know the risk and chasing the excitement of playing gambling. They use gambling to make money as a job they do but that is wrong if they thinks like that. They will only chase the winning without thinking that gambling is not a place to make money. Only a few people who can successful from gambling but they don't tell many people how they can do that. For ordinary gamblers, it's better they use gambling as a source of pleasure so they don't have an intention to chase the winning. They will control themselves while playing gambling because they know that is the only chance to avoid addicted to gambling.

Gamblers who see gambling as a side hustle are into a big mistake and would need to remove such mentally from their memory, not to fall victim to a bigger trouble. It's been made clear that the house takes most of the money, and gamblers are just being given few percentages of what they wager. Hence those who are experts or professionals that make money through gambling like it's a career, planned it all the way to the end. The process is not a one-day thing, and the professionals have lots of money to finance their gambling habit. That is, they have calculated the house edge and observed how much they need on their bankroll to venture into a long-term gambling without running out of money. When they are done calculating it, their money mixes with the wins from the casino, such that they'll never go broke in the process and most of them belong to comp clubs, with facilitates the winning process for them, by offering them points to use for food and hotel bills.
1144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The person who can’t control emotions in gambling will never earn money from it on: February 24, 2024, 12:33:11 PM
Even if you are someone who can control your emotions, it will not give you bigger chance of earning money from gambling. The ability to control emotion is good to help you in managing your gambling habit, but it will not help you to make/earn money because gambling is mostly about luck. Emotion has nothing to do with our luck, there are even some lucky people won big when they are angry while gambling, when they are frustrated, etc. Of course, having good emotion control is better as it will help you to avoid something worst like losing big or addiction.

Good point, I mentioned that in a previous response, and it's clear, maybe the writer wasn't aware of this, but to some extent we'd have to know his meaning behind the statement, or the context of the write up. Because if the lack of emotional control affects the player to lose, then self-controlling the emotions can help reduce the rate of losses for the gambler, thereby resulting to winning, I mean, if a person isn't losing too much, he'd be having a ton of wins, even if it's not from the game. A saved money is an earned money. Isn't it right? But in your context and reasoning you are completely right, yet it's fine to gain a different thought over everything we come across.
1145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: February 24, 2024, 12:24:03 PM
obviously we should need to be careful during gambling and should take this thing as entertaining and never set gambling as main source of income. Otherwise when anyone keep losing in gambling, he'll start gambling more to recovery and that time losing possibility will increase cause mind won't work perfectly that time and so people took wrong decision while roll over or bet. Even thus such thing could makes people addicted in Gambling which will be difficult to cure soon. gamblers should have a specific strategy as op said and should stop when they are losing too much continuesly, cause need to have some discipline which should be followed for self welfare

Playing under pressure to recover from loss is a bad idea and should be stopped. When once a gambler puts his emotions in front of his knowledge, things go wrong because you will eventually make the wrong decision. gamble is not a game were you relief your self from stress or clear your mind. The best time to gamble is when you are feeling ok and a bit of excitement, then you can catch the fun in gambling.  There is a saying that, we shouldn't make drastic decisions when we are angry because it could end up affecting our life. Gambling when going through a psychological trauma is dangerous to our financial health.

Gamblers are made up of many strategic plans per player. It's like soccer, when the game is not playing as planned everyone gets pressured. I know of a method shared in the forum, where the player expects to win at least 3 times in 10 wagers. Imagine working with this type of method, and the win doesn't come after wagering 10 times. The impulses on the gambler wouldn't let him stop. He'd try to go for the second ten, hoping to get all his funds back on the second run. Same applies to every other gambling method, and most times, if it's all about winning, instead of limitations, the gambler is mainly going to get into pressure. Thereby losing out lots of his money. Because whatever we do under pressure, especially in gambling, doesn't end up fine. Hence, gamblers are required to gamble carefully, as Op said. And watch out for their spending habit, not to get into debt.

~snip~
I see people place much hope on prediction sites but I see those stuffs as deceit though I have falling do this through my friend, he selected a slip from one of those reduction sites and it worked for him just once, so he continued but couldn't win again, so later introduced me to the site but couldn't tell me that it is only once that he win from the site, I fall to this trap because it was my early stage of being involved in gambling, I lost severally, one day I stopped and removed the site from my browser, from that day I realised that no matter how you think that their are specialist in selection, every one has the ability to do so but it all depends on luck.   

It's simple to detect that the people who patronize their services also get addicted to buying those predictions. Because they have won money through the method, hence they'll never back off, regardless of the increase in losses. Like your friend, he's into buying those games, and is now lazy to run his analysis and predict games himself. However, the goal is to win, but when a player isn't winning for five consecutive time, he shouldn't continue with the site, as they're just collecting money for nothing. They are not doing a great job with the predictions. Those who still use the site despite losing consistently, are into problem gambling and addicted to buying games. I think your friend needs some help to get over his troubles. As he's not doing that with his clear conscious. I understand how it works, the need to use them arises as a second and third chance. Just like yourself, who tried them a few more times.

Beginners luck is something that would really be strongly be able to influence you to play even more and this is something that you should really be that careful on this case because if you wont
then you are really that putting yourself on possible addiction. Usually noobs would really be creating that kind of beliefs and hopes into his mind that he's really that making easy money
with gambling but once that reality would slap into your face then you would really be having those realizations that it is really that not possible on having this kind of approach on things.
This is why it would really be that best that you should really know on what you are doing and dont let yourself get easily be hooked up by too much greed.

Both the luck achieved by beginners and experienced gamblers will make us easily influenced by what they get.
And novice gamblers are usually very ambitious in pursuing victory, and one day the novice gambler experiences defeat over time and then he realizes that he has made a mistake.
And I agree with you as a gambler, you should try as much as possible not to be greedy when in the casino, whether winning or losing will happen and we have to be able to accept it.

A newbie gambler who has won money wouldn't stop gambling easily. The gambling speed increases the moment they're made aware that the luck is in them, which makes the gambler certain he's able to win big someday. I think the casino purposely does this to keep the newbies on the trap of gambling for a longer period. Gamblers will definitely win, provided they keep on gambling. So, the wins are the reason everyone still gambles, and not everyone is contented with their winning result. Which circles back to greed and the meaning behind the chasing of loss. However, that doesn't make up for the purpose why a gambler should keep his habit a secret. Because if a player is struggling with self-control, he'd one day get into trouble, those who are aware of his habit are the best first aid for him. Hence, concealing the gambling habit, can only make the player suffer in times of trouble or danger. As nobody will know he's undergoing too many pains or understand why his behavior changed recently.

Addictions works almost similarly, regardless of where the problem is emerging from, most gamblers who got addicted weren't just careless, some happened to be responsible, at the end of the process they became addicted. Meaning that whenever, we engage into any activity that has some form of addicting vibe, we have to be careful about it and not run short of staying responsible in the game. We always have things we love doing, until we can't control the reason why we started doing those things. Hence, addiction sets in and the trouble continues to torment the victim, mentally, financially, and many other ways. It's not simple to escape addiction, due to the fact that we tend to enjoy those activities, which kept us addicted.

Well, we all just for fun and things will go smooth and fun as well but one who doesn't keep things under limits will fall into addiction of kind that we only understand how deep we are into the shit when it's become too late. In gambling people who desperate to make money also gets addicted and there are people who wanted to distract themselves from addicted and many more people but the worst of all is, this can affect us financially first then things will escalate to family/relationship and if they are not supportive then it will broke the bonding and we just do it hard to forget the emotional damage that they are going through.

Unfortunately, if the family of the gambler neglects him, that will be terribly bad and could affect his future behavior, after recovery. Because an addict needs love and care to get cured of his problem gambling. What is most important is the need to stay away from consistent gambling. Players own the responsibility of remaining responsible in gambling, but along the line forget about the pains of addiction and go astray. As a gambler, reminding oneself of the struggle addicts are undergoing, is enough to make us stick to the plan of being responsible in gambling. Compulsive gambling has never helped to improve the profits of any gambler. Why then do players tend to play or wager more than they're able to lose. It's painful and leads to anxiety which is the reason most gamblers are not able withstand the struggle, as it starts really strong on the player. The person realizes he's addicted really late, when it has eaten deep into his memory and bank account.

Controlling ourselves is important, it should be done before, during and after the gambling session to be better.
Some people may have good control before start but it may change completely during or after gambling so it can lead into something unexpected.


This is the most important thing that needs to be remember by other people who really wants to engage in gambling activities, It's quite difficult to do since even if we really want to control ourself, It's kinda hard to apply in action. Many gamblers does know how to control theirself but once they experience different things in gambling, just like winning big amount, there is a change because their greed that they tried to suppress from the beginning is starting. It is difficult to explain why it reaches that point because it is about our mind decision.only medical professionals can properly explain why this is happening to us.


No need involving medical professionals on this, it's natural with the spending habit of human. The richer a person gets the higher his expenses, and how he spends money. That's same with gambling. When a gambler hits a certain significant amount of money, that makes him feel like a high roller, he wouldn't wager like a low roller anymore. The self-control disappears at this point. I think gamblers at some point would need help with managing money. Especially with people who are not strongly backed with the knowledge of money management skill. Everyone has an atom of greed in them, that's why many still fall for Ponzi schemes, hence in gambling a player who has won enough money, definitely doesn't get satisfied and may need to wager away his money for more profits.

Mind control and emotional intelligence is required in gambling. The issue with gambling and gamblers is that it's freely made, anyone, anywhere will participate in gambling. Few people will only develop the urge to understand it better, while many others would focus on the funds. Playing without any experience on ways they could control their behavior. And stay clear from problem gambling. So, it's crucial for gamblers to learn from the mistakes of others and implement strategies that would help them not be in some ill problems with law enforcement agencies. Gambling was not created for players to commit problems in the society. Although it takes a large share of the blame, but the gambler knows he was careless about his moves and strategies. Instead of building up such bad records on gambling, it's better for newbie gamblers to focus on learning better how they could be good, responsible gamblers.
Playing gambling without any experience or not wanting to learn what is needed when playing gambling can put you at greater risk of losing money. Many people have experienced it so we don't need to try it because it will only make us lose even more money. We must not be careless in using our money and must always limit our money for gambling. Otherwise, we will only regret it when we see that all the money has been lost on the gambling table while we cannot recover the losses we have experienced. And instead of us also experiencing other big problems where we can become addicted to gambling because we don't have self-control, it's better that from now on, we have to learn better so that we can control ourselves when gambling. We must be able to understand that gambling is just entertainment, and there is no need to take it too seriously. We must always know that we have boundaries that must not be violated. That can prevent us from gambling excessively and can also prevent us from bigger problems where we can experience gambling addiction.

The journey for every gambler is quite different. Those who wish to have a safe experience need to back it up with some knowledge of what they're doing. It's not a thing of competition, but a self-game against our thoughts and brain. Gamblers have nothing to bother about the house. Instead, reverse remains the case for most gamblers, they end up trying to defeat the house. Not every gambler has this type of orientation. Hence, they end up going through the harsh route of gambling, putting themselves into hardship. What matters is to enjoy the process and wager what we are able to lose. If not, I don't understand any other reason why a gambler shouldn't mind his funds and stay careful about how he wagers it.

Many are in a hurry to hit it big. While some are for the fun and learning critical techniques, others have the intention of stopping after a huge win, and many others who have their individual reasons of playing gambling. That's why it'll be hard to control the attitude of the numerous gamblers in the world. Millions don't have the backup knowledge of the need to be a responsible gambler. Nothing can be done about that, it's an individual journey. And no gambler is clean. Any player can be a victim. So, the safety routine should be practiced on daily basis. Gamblers shouldn't think that they're good and can't get into problem gambling, that could be a big lie. The whole time we gamble, we need to respect the rules and manage our bank roll.

Every player who started a session should be able to know how to end it, if not the session will help him put it to an end when his funds get exhausted. Waiting for our funds to elapse before we rest isn't a good gambling practice. Being able to control the bank roll is crucial for every gambler. Speaking of cross addiction in gambling, it's a better method of escaping problem gambling, but it's not simple to achieve especially in gambling. A gambler has multiple reasons not to avoid gambling. His money is there, and the brain has been accustomed to gambling most of the time. Hence, staying in touch with people who can help the player divert his attention, also works fine for the gambler. Trying to achieve it all alone, is not conducive for the gambler's health, he could get lost in the process and wouldn't realize what he's suffering from. It's like a gravity, the addict need another force to distract the body from engaging into gambling again.

With someone's help who really showing care about the person they both might find a good alternative to prevent playing back or to prevent in keep participating in any types of gambling, It's an idea where the person who are engage into gambling can find a good way to divert his attention, though it's not an easy task to someone who already have that addiction inside but if there's still a self-will which can be use if there's a corresponding help that can be provided.

Keep in mind that there's always a way to stop if you are really keen and you are really aiming to achieve in moving away from gambling.

The best aspect of therapy is interpersonal relationship. A gambler who meets a close friend for help, will easily listen to the person and adapt to a new lifestyle. More like a peer pressure or influence. It's crucial for a gambler to trace back to those people whom he had good relationship with, and they'll help him laugh out his pains, by telling him old stories, and reminding him of his personality as a younger person in life. Those memories help to recuperate the brain and puts the player to thoughts, and rethink about himself. Asking himself questions like why he's changed really quick.

The only strong barrier is that the gambler will not realize meeting his old time or childhood friends can help him. Gambling addiction convinces the victim that nobody can help him not even the therapist. They tend to resist any form of help. The healing only starts when the addict decides to change, then his senses can direct him to a therapist or a friend who is willing to help him out of the trouble. One good thing, they are people, genuine, who are indeed ready to help a friend or family member out of their struggle. They are always right there by the corner, receiving lots of resistance from the victim, but they keep persisting, until the addict gives in that he actually needs help and is in a huge trouble.

The most realistic house edge is around 98% the gambler takes only 2% of his wagered money. Casinos generates lots of money across the world, and the players are just given a tip of the iceberg. That's the game, and the players need to stay prepared not to lose much to the casino. Players who want to win more than the casino, fetches most of the money for the casino. Thereby, helping the business to move for more people to participate. However, gamblers are not expected to go for the money, since they are aware of how casinos operate.

Such experts only need more publicity to reach out to more naive and curious gamblers who are seeking to make money by all method or strategy. The fastest way of getting a naive gambler's money is telling him that you've got correct predictions that could yield him more money. Those experts who do this, definitely wouldn't run out of such gamblers, it's a broad niche and can't end anytime soon. Because more people keep joining and those who has been into the trap of such experts, still keep on trying to find the best person to purchase their predictions. Gamblers only need to focus on their own predictions, and feel happy whenever it works out great, and add more money to their bank roll. No meaningful profits can be made by reaching out to unreliable experts to get predictions for an unpredictable game.

I have always made something clear in my points of view, for me people who are dedicated to games of chance and who for me are professionals will be professionals if and only if they handle money figures of $1M in adulthood, whether in the casinos. or in sports betting, but let's see the logic of this, the predictions have to be in derpotvia bets, for me they believe in a "professional" of this, he has to make the bets that he sends to his group and bet heavily, however, on see if he really wins or not, then he does win, and he has a success level above 85% for me, well, I could believe that person, but yes, he has to show me his mistakes, wins and losses, not show today and another tomorrow, no, the professional has to place his bets and his signals show that he is serious, because right now there are many liars and scammers out there, on telegram there are many, that's how As much as the traders who give their signals, yes I They show their balance all the time of profits and losses, that is when we verify if they are real or not.

It is very easy to get audiences and a community quickly with all the marketing strategies that exist, whether paid or not, but there are ways to get fake Insurance that makes a Difference in what they show out there, that is why I am always I'm very Delicate about these things, in fact there are some that give trading Signals like sports betting and the entry is free , to sweeten the Clients and then when they give some or other signals they demand payments, so that doesn't make sense to me , because I have seen that they live off of those Monthly payments of theirs , so I don't understand it, if they live off of trading or sports bets then they have to be very emphatic with that and always give proof, in fact they do have a lot of live betting better and that they make lives with this type of things to demonstrate that they are actually Transparent , but what I Demand so far no one does it, or well at least I don't know them.

What you want is quite hard to get, most of the people running such business are con artists, only few are genuine, and they need to be on top dollars to be giving out accurate prediction. I also understand the niche to be some collection of chains of providers from the genuine down to the least that most gamblers can afford. Because a lot of money is going into the business, and it's been forwarded to the people at the top. Getting to the right chain can be difficult, but it exists. However, gambling remains what it is, one can't expect constant wins from this method, despite following the right people. Showing you their mistakes and statistics, can be strange to them, because of how connected they are, most of them may not be playing those games, instead they focus on advertising their channels to be able to generate more money to advance into a better chain of the business. And, as I said, getting to the main source of this prediction group is quite difficult, they are the only people who provide the things you need. The people on telegram, most, don't follow such routines, they come up with any prediction that hits their memory, and also find a way to defend their mistakes, the channel members have no option than to try again on the next game.
1155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit. on: February 23, 2024, 06:46:21 AM
People can never enjoy financial benefits from gambling. It can be fun if you bet with your friends all of a sudden but when you bet with a lot of money and do it regularly it becomes no fun anymore. Those who get idea about gambling gamble for fun in the initial stage and when they win gambling they gamble regularly and become addicted. There are also people who want to become financially independent from gambling, which makes them gamble regularly, which may be a mistake for them because gambling can never become financially independent.
I agree it's really stupid to think of financial benefits from gambling there is no guarantee that you will make money from it. Chasing money will become an addiction. Many people lose control of their lives while gambling and their entire lives are filled with problems because of this behavior. Leaving all the important activities of life they only look for gambling opportunities and immerse themselves in gambling. Should be played through fun if fun don't worry about any financial loss.

Gamblers face too many challenges during any gambling session. Many therapists have mentioned that no gambler is immune to addiction, due to the constant change or challenges coming up while gambling, hence we all need to forget about chasing money or seeing gambling as a venture for financial freedom. Nothing is wrong in being a moderate gambler. The point of earning huge amount of money from gambling moves around the brain of any player who has been into gambling for a long period of years. This thought is generated from the common issues people have with gambling, loss of money. Was discussing with a friend and he mentioned that he is going to win huge amount of money some day through gambling. I didn't say a word, because it's achievable, but when, and how long would it take? that is not certain. So, what keeps lots of gamblers in the game is the big win day. That thought removes the need to safeguard their fundings, they wager too hard just to hit the jackpot, forgetting that the funds belong to the house.

These guys aren't really doing themselves a favor. They are just bringing themselves closer to a lot of losses financially. Better to gamble sane and with full focus and knowledge of what you're doing rather than letting drugs or drowsiness take control of your logic and decision making. I really don't understand the rationale behind using drugs or alcohol to fuel some activities. They're just foregoing their control to some chemicals luring them into the false sense of being invincible.
I think gambling is permissible if their financial condition is good and they can earn a very large amount. Gambling can be used as a place to find entertainment or relieve fatigue from daily work, but you need to know, don't be too addicted in gambling places and you have to take care not to addicted to gambling places because it has the potential to quickly use up all the money you have.

Gambling in such a condition only worsens the rate the gambler loses his money during his gambling session. One can't stand the pressure of gambling while high on alcohol, I've seen TikTok videos of a woman that lost lots of dollars in gambling, because she was drunk. Imagine the casino also provides drinks to gamblers, but it's quite a thing of self-control. A gambler shouldn't take up all the alcohol in the house just to gamble. The stress to think and make good decision will be much, and the person will wager carelessly and recklessly. However, since no player has ever achieved a big win through wagering on the influence of alcohol, other players need to look into their mood of participating in gambling. It's a game of calculation and prediction, playing without our self-consciousness, intact, the player will end up in dip trouble when the alcohol clears off his memory. The person needs to work on two huge troubles, alcohol and gambling addiction. That will be a whole big fight for freedom. Because when a player can't avoid gambling while high on alcohol, his problem gambling will be tremendously hard to cure.

Op has made some good point on his explanation about gambling for fun. It's not a big thing to understand. The trouble with people is that they forget easily about the importance of gambling for fun. Like Op stated the whole process of gambling is closely related to how we spend money on other utilities. The same thing applies to giveaway, paying for football matches, going to the mall or park etc. Such activities take up our money, and we don't regret paying for the fun we've earned there. Gambling isn't an exemption; the difference is the money casino promises to players. More like if a restaurant pays people for eating, lots of humans would overfeed there, just for the money reward. That's what is going on in casino. People are meant to enjoy the moment there, but due to the money it's quite hard for the players to focus and stick to the exact time for them to leave the vicinity. Which causes harm to the emotions of the gambler, and his loss of money.

If gambling can be enjoyed then financial losses may not have a major impact. But when gambling turns into an addiction, a gambler will face a different situation as well as financial losses. The gambler will continue to gamble even after losing his money, which will affect the person to a greater extent than the loss of the money. Any addiction can affect people negatively. There will be no mistake in saying this in that direction. Addiction is certainly more harmful than financial loss. When a gambler loses financially, it can be recovered later, but the losses the gambler faces due to addiction cannot be compensated with money.
In enjoying gambling, we must be able to control ourselves well so that we don't experience too big a financial loss. Most gamblers cannot control themselves, which causes them to experience large financial losses because they have lost a lot. This is something that must be avoided because whatever money you use for gambling will only run out and you will not be able to enjoy gambling as entertainment. There will be a desire to avenge the defeat you experienced, so it will trigger you to gamble excessively. And if you gamble too much, you will only experience bigger losses and it will be difficult to recover from them. Apart from that, there will be a problem of gambling addiction that befalls you if you remain unaware of it because you are getting deeper into gambling.

Trying to take the wins from the house by force is a fight greedy gambler can't win the house is in control of the game. Why would a gambler try to win using any possible means, to an extent of wagering all his money. The endless effort of chasing loss without any result only leaves the gambling wondering about his incapabilities of winning. Hence, he'd continue, until he gets addicted. Any amount of money that gets to his way will go back to gambling. Addiction and financial loss are incomparable, but one can't get addicted to gambling without losing lots of money in the process, maybe in his venture of wining back his lost money. Since there work hand in hand, gamblers in order not to get addicted, need to be careful about financial loss. Hence self-control can limit the amount of money a gambler loses while gambling. The anxiety of losing too many puts lots of players into problem gambling. But in a literal sense, addiction is way too bad and also requires finance to get cured.

When people study, they always say that they are studying to achieve their dreams, but when people become adults and need a job to earn money, then people focus on studying courses that are most sought after in the job market. , and when they get a job, they say they are working because they love that job, but in reality they are working because they need money. They do their job well and are compensated with money, which in this case is their salary. It's a win-win situation for both parties. On one side we have the owner of the company who needs employees to do certain tasks and on the other side we have people who need jobs so they do the tasks of the place where they work and receive salaries.

in casinos it's exactly the same thing, what we have is that on one side there is the casino owner who needs customers to make a profit and on the other side we have customers who are playing for fun and who also want to win money, I usually I play for fun but I try very hard to make a profit. Of course, I don't exaggerate and I manage my bankroll in a rational way so that I don't get lost in gambling addiction, because the search for profit is what has made many people follow the path of gambling addiction, and I don't want to this for me. But it's a reality that most people play because they want to win and make money, and that makes perfect sense. It wouldn't be fun to lose

Great analysis enjoyed reading your write up, its easily understandable why people get into confusion while gambling. They spend hours gambling for the money, as if they want to achieve their dreams. But the aim is for the money. They end up losing out lots of it, and keep on trying to earn few more funds, through gambling. While the casino boss is busy doing his parts on the Ads, looking for more gamblers to fund the business. This shows how simple it is to understand how the gambling niche is been managed. Also, why people shouldn't think the money wagered on gambling is an investment. As it's not what they think it is, gambling is for fun purposes and for the need to relax after a busy day or week.

That's the technique for getting more traffic, which affects the bank roll of the low roller. Moving forward the player begins to lay blames on the streamers for being the reason why they lost all their funds, gambling. It then starts to affect the emotional state of the gambler that he'd begin to lose control and get problem in his gambling process. However, when a high roller is watching a streamer play, he could be following his moves without much problem because the high rollers has the sufficient funds to take care of himself, without running broke. The low rollers, find it so hard as the money is needed to solve other financial responsibilities. So, the viewers who has enough money can play like the streamers, while those who don't have enough should focus in saving up money for other things. It's wrong to go short of money, due to gambling.

that's true, it could happen, with the fact that the strategy given by the streamers and them imitating it ultimately only leads them to defeat, maybe they will blame the streamer, but that's no use, what is clear is that it can trigger their emotions increase which could make them have a grudge against gambling which could also trigger them to big losses, because with the grudge they have it can make them lose self-control which leads them to take actions that are beyond the limits such as depositing money back in pursuit of winnings.

Sometimes it is true that if someone has lost self-control because of the gambling they do, they may gamble using money that they should not use for gambling, for example money that is designated for basic needs, this can happen, because heightened emotions make it possible They will continue to gamble with the aim of getting a win that can cover the losses they have experienced.

Having grudges for the streamer doesn't solve any problem for the gambler, because he, the player, wasn't taken by his hands to gamble like the streamer. Removing such thoughts can help the player relax his nerves and focus on wagering few amounts of money. Gambling is not meant for people who are on the search for quick profits. And that's the weak point the streamers are utilizing while promoting big wins on their platforms, with money sponsored by the casino. Nothing comes easy, but newbie gamblers think that money can be made easily via gambling. However, they end up finding out that their thoughts were wrong all along, instead of accepting the responsibility they end up blaming the streamer. Since they don't take it on themselves that it's their fault, they'll want to prove it by wagering more money to get their funds back immediately. Some also conclude that they must hit one max win before quitting gambling. Numerous self-determination that keeps gamblers to continue chasing losses.
