1181  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: November 23, 2023, 01:43:13 PM
casino's AI is to keep gamblers from winning and the gambler's AI is to keep winning. it will be a hell of a fight as AIs are getting sophisticated i think the dev can actually develop something that will deceive the other bot. AI industry will be the new industry that we are going to be working on.

AIs to predict sports outcomes might still be impossible to achieve for now. we have a long way to go since this depends on the athletes playing the game.
how much access will AI have inorder to predict games? personal life of athletes, health and team meetings. i doubt they are going to allow it.
Yes, this fight will never stop, as each casino and gambler will find a way to beat the other. And AI will become more sophisticated and give hope to gamblers so that they can be confident against the AI ​​of the casino.

AI still has a long way to go, and we don't know how it will develop in the future. And if there is still news being released, the AI can still get the data from the internet and process it so that the AI can provide a percentage and probability for a gambler to win the match. But I also don't know what this AI will be like in the future, especially since I have never tried the AI that several developers are currently developing.

I would argue that AI is already there doing its thing, now in the present.

Sometimes it helps us, and sometimes it helps someone else that wants someone from us.

It's better to learn a bit about all this and be more aware, because things have been changing in this realm for a few years already, now it is mainstream.
AI has indeed done its job, but it is still not adequate and needs further development to be able to achieve what humans want. Humans always have creative ideas for creating something, so humans will try to make it happen even though it is difficult. And humans can definitely find a solution by finding other things that can help the AI development process. So we can only wait for the development of AI for casinos and gamblers and see the results.
1182  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: November 23, 2023, 01:29:42 PM
As long you are really that having a good control with your finances then it should really be just that fine. There are really just those people who are really that getting derailed with their
gambling activity on the time that they would really be making themselves impulsive on the time that they would be playing. In my time or moment on dealing with gambling then i had never ever
made myself being a gambling addict.Why? I do only spend on the amount on which i do or can afford to lose and never ever go into going into beyond limits.
People do usually mess up on the time that they would really be that going past into those limitations on which it is something that you shouldnt really be doing in the first place.
Gambling could wreck up your life if you arent that thinking carefully or making actions that well.
This means that when gambling, we really have to have good self-control so as not to slip into gambling activities until we become addicted to gambling. Gambling addiction is a very big and serious problem that the gambler must treat before his gambling addiction turns worse. We can actually still control ourselves well when gambling so that we don't exceed the limits we have set. Only with self-control can we avoid all the problems that gambling will cause. Yes, gambling can ruin your life if you are not careful in gambling and managing the money you use for gambling.

If someone is gambling and believes it's too much and still has the self-control in it, that is not an addiction to me, it's a mere hobby for the person. You can engage in your hobby for as long as you like, but when it's getting to the level that you can't easily say No to it when you want to, and perhaps taking more of your time and attention thereby causing the lack of focus in better things of life, then this is the time you can call it an addiction and start fighting it. It's a very good thing for the person when he realises it all by himself, the next step is to start making efforts to restrain himself from it. It would always be easy if the person has a strong mind, this helps easily to pull out of addiction simply by letting go by taking a temporary break from it.

It is probably when the personal effort is not working that the person should proceed for external help where friends and family could be involved. And my advice to those who can't overcome their addiction by themselves is that they should not wait for too long for people to notice. When they can't control it over time, they should immediately call the attention of their friends or family or both to it before it gets too ugly.
Everything depends on the self-control that each gambler has so that if he can still control himself, he can still gamble well and enjoy gambling. But don't make gambling a hobby because it can make you forgetful and unable to control yourself. Having a gambling hobby can make you addicted to gambling, so it will only ruin your life until you are unable to get up again. But most people will lose control of themselves when they gamble too often and can't control themselves because the temptation of gambling is so great that it keeps making them gamble again. He had become addicted to gambling to the point where he couldn't think about himself and even lost track of time and everything. This is what every gambler must be aware of so that they do not turn into gamblers who are addicted to gambling, and it will only give them more problems.

People who are addicted to gambling can look for someone in their family or friends to talk about their problem so that there is help that can help them get out of their gambling addiction problem. Hopefully, the person who is addicted to gambling can find someone who can really help him get out of his gambling addiction problem so that he can have a normal life again. It is indeed difficult. It is not easy to tell other people about the problem because it is related to gambling addiction, but he really has to tell it so that his gambling addiction problem can be resolved.

In my opinion that is one of the keys to gambling, with good self-control it will avoid addiction. because many people cannot control themselves when gambling and unconsciously they have become an addict because they continue to gamble without thinking about the losses they have felt, and when they get a win if they have good control they will cash it in without thinking about anything else or chasing back a bigger victory.

Because most of those who do not have good self-control, when they get a win they choose to continue the game by pursuing a bigger win which of course may be impossible to get, because not always luck will always be on their side. Even if they have friends who always remember not to gamble again, in my opinion it will not work to resist the feeling of wanting to gamble again because of the absence of good control so that they can ignore the words suggested by their friends. So really the key is good self-control to be able to limit gambling by not overdoing it.
Self-control is the most important thing that gamblers who want to gamble responsibly must possess. Unfortunately, many have lost their responsibility in gambling, so they actually become addicted to gambling and, even worse, gambling addiction. Many of them have lost money from gambling, and even their lives have been ruined because of irresponsible gambling. That's why we really have to take care of ourselves by gambling responsibly, but actually, if we can't be responsible when gambling, we don't need to take that risk because it could endanger our lives and those of our families.

Many gamblers who win choose to continue gambling even though they know and realize that continuing to gamble will not provide a greater chance of winning the gambling game. They are willing to accept the risk and actually continue gambling so that, in the end, they end up having a losing streak that wastes all their money without any money remaining. This is what we must avoid, especially if we want to be responsible gamblers, because by continuing to gamble, the risks we face will be greater, and perhaps we will not be able to accept it.

Yes, it would really be that worth rather than on giving into those addicted gamblers.I would rather be donating something on a charity on which it is really that something being useful into those people who are in need
and not into some addicted fellas who are really that tending to support their addiction even further?No one into their right minds that will really be making out such step on trying out to support
into those people but rather they would be something spending which into those who are really worth on getting such help. You are the ones who would held responsible into your actions
on which it would really be just that normal that you would be the ones who would really be suffering the consequences.

Helping out to those addicted person via giving out more funding? You are really just worsening up the situation on which we know that this isnt really he solution
on quitting gambling for good but rather it would really be adding up the overall addiction that you could potentially have. So better be wary and be careful on the things that you've been
dealing off with.
Giving money to people who need it can at least help lighten their burden and give them hope to keep trying. But if we provide help to people who are addicted to gambling, it doesn't seem worth it, but maybe if the money can help cure their gambling addiction, it's still worth it because it's for the sake of curing their gambling addiction. They also don't need to think about medical costs for the therapies they have to do because there is already assistance to pay the costs.

It would be more appropriate to give besides helping people who really need help because the money can be distributed to those who need it. So instead of giving the money to those who gamble, which will only add to their problems, we should give it to those who need it more, especially those who still have difficulty buying their daily necessities.
1184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: November 23, 2023, 12:45:42 PM
Of course both are the most important because gambling is a game of probability, so luck and skill are really needed.

I actually often pay attention to people who only gamble using luck alone, to be honest they will definitely lose, they don't know that the skill factor also influences winning when gambling.
Of course you are right, gambling requires both luck and gambling skill. If you have enough skill in gambling but if your luck does not favor you then you will lose the gambling game and if you only depend on luck then you will surely lose your gambling game. Skill in gambling helps you to take right decisions while luck helps you to win in gambling. Gambling skill is the first and very important step because if we make a mistake in the beginning we will lose the gamble even if luck is in our favor. So first we have to make the right decision then it is a game of luck. If we lose a gamble even after making the right decision, we have to accept that our luck was not helping us that day and try again later but with the right decision.
Skills in gambling can help us to have a greater chance of winning than usual, but without luck, it will not be easy for us to win. Actually, these two things are interconnected, especially in skill-based gambling games, because if we can play the gambling game but we are not lucky, we will have difficulty winning. And even if we lose that game, we can still win another game. But if it is a luck based game, we will never be able to win if we don't have luck, and that is why many people experience huge losses in luck based gambling games. And if we are asked which is more important, luck or skill, it depends on what gambling game we are playing, so the answer will definitely be different.
1185  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: November 22, 2023, 10:07:33 PM
There were times when I gamble too much. Maybe much more than I did now due to boredom or was trying to escape a difficult time. I was this close to being dependent on gambling. I knew I was already spending so much time gambling but didn't know it was that bad until it was pointed out my best friend. He saved me. If you are going through a tough time, it may be difficult to talk to someone about it especially it you are trying to be a man. However you must talk to someone to save yourself from self-destructive habits.
Gambling too much, but you can still have good self-control, which will not harm you because you can still restrain yourself from gambling addiction. However, not many will be able to do it because most people will experience a gambling addiction that they are not aware of, so without self-control, a person will be at risk of becoming addicted to gambling. You are lucky to have friends who have saved you from excessive gambling, and those who help you from difficulties will see and help you to get out of these difficulties before you get into worse difficulties. And we have to be able to tell someone about the problems we are facing so that they can know and help immediately.
1186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: November 22, 2023, 09:48:50 PM
~snip~
Of course, most people will hide their gambling activities from their family because they don't want to feel disappointed or unhappy with every gambling activity they do, considering that not everyone likes gambling, and quite few even think that gambling is bad activity.
Even though the family role is very helpful, personally I will not tell my family what he does regarding gambling and will continue to hide everything even though I am in trouble.

What he did was real form of effort towards awareness to be able to recover from gambling addiction and curing addiction must be based on one own intention and determination because no matter how many people give advice or suggestions, if there is no awareness or intention from yourself then things will become very difficult.
From the emergence of awareness to recover, he can also suppress every activity he does so that when he has the desire to return, he can think that his goal is to stop and recover from the addiction he is experiencing.
You really have to have better control so that you are not tempted to gamble too often, especially since you already know what the impact is on someone who gambles too often. We could hide our gambling activities and only gamble when everyone is asleep so that no one will be disturbed, but as I said, we have to have better control. Gambling can make it deeper and harder for us to reduce our gambling activities, and when we find it difficult to give up gambling, maybe that is a sign that we are starting to experience a gambling addiction.

A person who is addicted to gambling can recover from his gambling addiction as long as he has strong intentions and determination, and even though no one accompanies him during his recovery period, he can still live it well until he is finally free from his gambling addiction. This is indeed difficult, but it depends on the intention and determination of the gambling addict because, in fact, he himself can suppress the effects of his gambling addiction. Other people who accompany him only provide encouragement and support while everything depends on him. All people with an addiction, both gambling and drug addicts, have a second chance, but it depends on whether they can take advantage of their second chance or whether they will continue to reject it.

~snip~
People's thoughts are different, so they can have what they think is best for themselves, hiding or telling it in my opinion will still bring its own problems, because after all gambling is something that is not good in society. So there are those who hide their gambling activities because they are embarrassed if they find out about their activities, and there are those who tell it to explain their habits, depending on the person himself. And in my opinion, people who like to gamble tend to find it difficult to accept advice from other people even if they are family or close friends, sometimes they can also argue back because they don't accept advice.
To stop gambling is very difficult not only gambling all things that have become a habit that is said to be addicted will be difficult to cure, as you said, it takes a strong determination to stop gambling is true and I want to add, when an addict wants to quit the addiction then he will be determined with all his might to resist the desire to gamble. But if they want to gamble half-heartedly or there is still a feeling of wanting to gamble it will be in vain, it is better for them to continue gambling until they feel at the lowest point in order to fully realize the gambling that has made him lose a lot and not in terms of money alone. So in my opinion there must be a definite intention with all their heart first to stop. then they will be able to accept advice from family or people around them.
Yes, someone have their own considerations, so it's only natural that they still hide it from people because there are still many people who think gambling is something that is not good. Many people have experienced bad things because of gambling, and it cannot be cured easily. That is why those who are still hiding their gambling activities feel comfortable gambling without anyone knowing, and maybe they will still hide it for a long time. Everything will depend on how their self-control can protect them from all the problems that can arise from gambling. However, those who still hide their gambling activities must be wary of the tendency to continue gambling if they experience defeat. It can trigger them to become addicted to gambling if they cannot control themselves in gambling.

We know that stopping gambling is difficult, but we can try to reduce gambling activities because by still trying to control ourselves by reducing our gambling time and money, we can avoid gambling addiction. Something that has been done repeatedly will form a habit, so if someone wants to reduce their gambling activities, they have to form a new habit so they can start reducing it. A person must have a strong intention and determination to start, whereas if he still wants to gamble, that means he must start practicing his intention and determination so that he can stop himself from gambling. But if he loses money and no one in his family knows that he has been gambling too often, he could become seriously addicted to gambling, and no one can help him.
1187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Conclusion after losing millions! that games are rigged. on: November 22, 2023, 09:10:28 PM
~snip~
I think that the games, the sporting sense and all the clean analysis that can be done in a specific sport, we as bettors and with the initiative of doing our best analyzes seeing some of the criteria that we can, because we always base ourselves on what we We know and what we have learned throughout our lives, as I said before, in soccer, the classic example of soccer, how many times as a teenager I was wrong with the results, or at least saying who wins or who loses. ? But after uncovering the pot of great corruption that was in FIFA itself, how do we know how many soccer matches were not fixed? and many of us making good bets, maybe winning but rigged? It is something sad and it is like hitting a wall, but the manipulation is not even a big deal, it is within the very top of those who direct this, we do not know what forces move them, we know what things may be present.

Now, when we now stick to anti-corruption tools such as games when the VAR is consulted, which still does not have much corruption, it is very difficult to control an arbitration panel where all the power continues to be maintained by the main referee of the games, If a main referee is sure that he has ruled something, the VAR cannot prevent or intervene, that is why there are so many fights now, 'because a referee, no matter how close he is to the things that happen there, is human, and can make a mistake. the senses, due to the degree of emotion, of fatigue considering that the main referee runs throughout the entire soccer game, these types of things are what we must Consider and make them see as something main, then if the tools are and continue Giving more power to corruption is difficult, there are many things that seem to me that football is still corrupt, and many things that can lead to bad decisions , and that must end.
We will never know how many football matches are clean and unfixed because we, as spectators, only know that the match is between this team and that team and hope that our favorite team will win so that the sports bet we place will also give a win. We also don't know whether we can win in the next round or whether we will experience defeat, and it all depends on the results of the analysis we do. But when the match is fixed, we also cannot predict it or predict it, especially if it is a secret from several parties who arrange it. We only know that there is manipulation in many sports matches, but we cannot investigate it because we are just ordinary spectators who need entertainment by watching football matches.

With VAR technology, everything can be revealed, but again, if every referee is bribed, of course, it will affect the match, and the match will never be honest. Unfortunately, if the referee is also bribed throughout the event, it will only make the event no longer interesting because each match is based on something other than the performance of each player. It is indeed difficult if there are still parties who can commit corruption, especially in sports matches, because they can never show the abilities of each player because the results are clear. There needs to be awareness from all parties, but it will be difficult if there are some parties who want to take greater advantage of each sporting event.
1188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The love in football on: November 22, 2023, 05:54:51 PM
Football was my favorite as a child, and I often imagined myself joining the national team Grin

I also used to like watching football matches with my friends, even though it was in the middle of the night. So it's normal that many people like football, and it has become one of people's favorite sports. You can have a lot of fun when watching a football match with friends. But now I don't watch football matches very often.

There's a saying in my neighborhood that says, "it's hard to gather people to discuss something but if it's football, there will be lots of people willing to come and ready to discuss," hahaha.

Gambling is not to be used as a source of income, we should remember that always, yeah OP, only the owners of a casino may it is online or offline are going to be rich, those who gamble will surely lose, that's why when we ask those losers their answers will tend to mean that they only gamble for fun so they never mind their loses.

Even in sportsbetting, it is just for fun but sometimes we get out of hand and we lose our focus and discipline thus resulting to a bigger loss, seldom we see users here bragging that he always wins in sportbetting and sort of making this as an income generating activity.
Totally agree. Casino owners always have the last laugh against gamblers. Winners always talk about the good side of the story and what we don't know is the behind the scenes. 😁 Gambling is really not a good source of income and this has been tackled many times. Gambling is designed only for fun not as a cash cow.
Yes, it is the casino owners who make money from irresponsible gamblers, so here we need to protect our money so we don't use it too much because we only consider gambling as entertainment. If anyone uses gambling as a source of income, they will only regret it because it is far from what they expected, and they can even lose a lot of money. Yes, gambling is designed to provide entertainment to people to relieve stress from their daily activities so that they can return to their activities well after releasing their stress. But in reality, many gamblers actually use gambling to make money, which makes them lose a lot of money. This is what gamblers must be aware of so that they can control themselves while gambling.
1190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would You Crowdfund for a Gambler Who Has Gambled Irresponsibly? on: November 22, 2023, 04:43:36 PM
You can be considered an irresponsible individual,  if you help crowdfund an irresponsible gambler, it's his fault that he loses his money so he should be the one to look for a solution to replace the money that he loses and not beg for money, for all we know he will use the money that people gave him to gamble again.
We should ignore these kinds of people who are not responsible for what they do, the first rule in gambling is only playing with money that you can afford to lose, this means he doesn't know what's money for playing and what's money for important needs.
We should distribute the money to people who need it rather than to irresponsible gamblers because, after all, it is difficult for irresponsible gamblers to change their habits. He needs to realize his mistakes and start changing them for the better so that if there are people who want to help him, the help will not be in vain, and they can actually use the money for things that are more useful than just gambling. Those who have gambled irresponsibly should be able to realize that they have crossed their limits and should immediately return to their original goal, especially if they have lost a lot of money. They must remember that when gambling, they must be able to gamble with the money they can afford, always limit their money and time, and be able to be responsible with themselves while gambling.

It seems I have forgotten who taught me to gamble for the first time. I started gambling as a child, teenager, or playing online gambling, but I can't remember who invited me to try my luck at gambling. Moreover, if I knew who it was, I couldn't blame him because, at that time, I didn't know anything about gambling and just used my free time to gamble.

And now that we are all adults, we shouldn't blame the people who asked us to gamble. We have to realize that gambling too often can make us addicted to gambling. We must try to limit the time and money spent on gambling so that we can avoid the problems that can arise.
1192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: November 22, 2023, 03:42:44 PM
In a way that AI has been helping us in many different ways, I think this is not applicable with gambling like taking all the factors to predict the outcome. AI does predict outcome by analyzing previous data, in short its prediction is from the pattern, pattern that a human can't see or comprehend and I think that's cheating. Gambling isn't made for such technology, perhaps it is the enemy of gambling. If AI continue to upgrade, enter all the industry that it could be then it may be a disruption for some causing some boundary and may be a new age of security detecting AIs in some area.
In the future, AI will help us in various ways so that we can benefit from AI. AI is currently still in the development stage so that it can be even better and can reach a level where it can provide the results desired by humans. However, casinos will not just watch the development of AI but will prepare AI to fight AI too. And later, there will be competition between AI involving casinos and gamblers who want to win. But it looks like casinos will still make the most profits because that is their business. Meanwhile, many gamblers still experience loss because they are not yet able to use AI.
1193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this a good advice? on: November 22, 2023, 03:21:09 PM
I must say that anyone who tells you that the more you gamble, the closer you are to your jackpot does not really know what they are telling you. You asked your friend a good question, though, and that was very smart of you. I believe the question took a down tone on him, making him rethink his gambling life and what he has just asked you in person. Most times, people just say things to promote their brand without thinking of the repercussions. They must know what they are doing and get at you just to join them and become addicts, and I must say that your friend did that so you could give in to his casino and become a gambler with his casino while earning a referral bonus from you if I am not mistaken.
That's true because they want to see us experience more and more losses by continuing to gamble. They actually don't want to see us win, so they tempt us to continue gambling. They or even we can indeed win from gambling, but the problem is, we and they will not know when we can win. We may only be able to continue gambling, but we have to control ourselves so that we don't experience too many losses. It won't be worth doing, especially if we use more money than before. And if you gamble too often, it can make you addicted to gambling, and maybe when you change your goals, the gambling addiction will actually come. Those who spend more time in the casino will not be closer to winning, but they may be closer to losing. If they remain unaware, they will regret it once they know the truth. So pay attention to yourself and always limit your gambling activities rather than experiencing a gambling addiction.

I am glad that we live in the era of the Internet where you can read everything about gambling habits and thus be prepared. And the more I learn about how addiction appears, the scarier it becomes to me, because internally I understand how close I sometimes was to gambling becoming a permanent and uncontrollable part of my life. Any big win at the beginning of the use of games and then it is very easy to become obsessed with gambling. But even knowing all this, I often recognize myself in the guys who give interviews about their addictions. Their stories are often similar to situations from my life.
From there, we can actually learn from what we read and watch so that we can avoid it and prevent it from happening to us, and we can actually use gambling as entertainment. We will not chase wins or recover losses because that will only make us addicted to gambling, especially if we do not reduce our gambling activities. Yes, it's scary if we imagine that we have a serious gambling addiction to the point that we don't recognize ourselves as having changed because of gambling. Winning is certainly fun, but we have to be able to control ourselves so we don't try to chase more wins because it will never be easy. We have to be patient that we are just ordinary gamblers who only want to use gambling as entertainment so that we don't have to experience gambling addiction.

Many of us cannot earn a steady income by gambling. That is a reality that we must accept so that we can start reducing our gambling activities and switch to other things that can provide opportunities to make money. We cannot depend on gambling to make money because gambling is just entertainment. If you continue to insist on gambling for the reason of wanting to make money, you will likely feel disappointed, especially if you end up losing most or even all of the money. You should work somewhere else that can actually make money, so you don't have to lose money. If you are successful, you will only use gambling as entertainment and enjoy gambling as it should be.
1196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you lose on slots? on: November 22, 2023, 02:22:11 PM
I have to update my view on this, as i used to love slots, i just was just losing way too much that it would have kept my interest. The bright colors and the music is somehow calming and exciting at the same time, but only jackpots from time to time make it interesting. And i wasn't getting those for a long time so i am having a break and moved to sports betting. I guess that's interesting too when i watch it real time, but not as relaxing as slots.

I might move back to them sooner or later when i get bored on sports again.
Slot is a nice game but I don't think I really know how to play it till now. This game need a lot of practice for one to be good in it. It 8w good for one to venture on different kind of games so that we can get aquatinted to it and with time becoming a good player. One thing I have realized about gambling is ability for us to understand when and how to take risks. Everything we are doing has it own risk but when we don't know how to take the risk and when we should take risk can be a big problem to us. We can make profits from betting when we realize this and work on ourselves.
It's very easy to play slot games. You only need to choose one slot game from the slot provider. You determine the amount of the bet, and I suggest you choose the smallest. Usually, the smallest bet is $0.1, depending on the provider. After that, you can buy a Bonus or press it manually or automatically. If you buy a Bonus, you will likely get a high return, although it is still not guaranteed. If you don't want to buy a Bonus, you can press the button. If you want the spins to be automatic, you only need to choose the number of spins you want, and you have to wait for the results to come out. But be careful because this slot game can really tempt you to play it longer until you don't realize that you have been gambling for quite a long time and using a certain amount of money.

For me hiding ones gambling habit from the kids is not to good because whatever thing you're hiding from your kids one day they will definitely find out what you're hiding away from then so when they are aware of things you do that isn't really that good it will enable the kids to abstain from such practices when they are growing up. Even if they are to partake in that habit but they will be responsible in it since they've been taught about the do and don't by their parents.
I actually don’t see anything wrong in parents trying to keep away from their kids the fact that they gamble. After all, it’s not everything you as a parent, bring to the notice of your children.
There are adult activities that kids shouldn’t be allowed to do or even know at a certain age cause their minds are still young and may not be able to understand clearly about such activities. So it’s best to coach them about certain things at the right time and age when they’re matured enough to understand fully what they’re being taught. Parents keeping away from their young kids certain activities, is perfectly reasonable as they are quick to copy and imitate such activities without having adequate knowledge about those activities.
There are things that children don't need to know about before they grow up, including gambling, so some parents think they don't need to show their gambling activities to their children. But if their children ask about what gambling is and want to know more, their parents can explain it according to their age and also explain the impact if someone always gambles and eventually becomes addicted to gambling. These children also don't need to see what gambling games are like, especially if they are not old enough or not yet fit to know about gambling. Maybe parents can teach them about self-control and emotions, managing their money, and the things that are needed, which will definitely always be needed when they grow up and not just when they gamble.

Have you ever thought of giving back to the community if you ever had a successful gambling run? One of those punters on X, who usually wins large sums of money from betting, is giving out about 25 laptops to folks who cannot afford them, and he recently paid for someone's cybersecurity online course. Do you think this is something that you can do—give back to the community from your gambling runs?

When I was gambling and winning on Bitsler, I was always giving away some free bitcoin airdrops and was always tipping people with some satoshis, which was at least 0.0001BTC but back then this wasn't much. It's really fun and rewarding to give away some part of your winning because it makes me happy when I see how happy others get from my tips. To be honest, I have never won huge enough to reward my friends and relatives. It's good that there are people who give away laptops and necessary things to people who really need it. I think if that person build marketing about this event and makes youtube channel, he will make even more money and will be to give away even more.
Yes, you are right. Seeing other people happy with our gifts also makes us feel happy. We can share a little with other people, which will definitely make them happy to receive the gift. The person who gave the laptop and other necessities donated them to people in need. If more people do the same thing, it will bring changes to the people around them, and that will certainly bring more happiness to them. And yes, it's true that if he could create a YouTube channel, there would be more money coming his way so he could provide help to even more people.

When you do really put up yourself on the time that you are already that become addicted to gambling then it is really that safe to say that you are that someone who would most likely on losing up control on the time that you are playing gambling. Why? you are already that out of your sense specially when making up decisions specially with gambling. When you are already making
tons of losses but still you are deciding that would really be still playing then its a solid indication that you are already addicted to it on which this is really something that it is very bad.
You wouldnt really be able to assess whether its good or bad because you are already addicted to it on which you would really be always believing that you are really just that basically
doing just fine.
Yes, that's what happens to many gamblers, where they can't control themselves until they finally become addicted to gambling, and it's even worse than they imagined. It is true that when someone is addicted to gambling, they will not realize it and are still fine even though if other people saw it, they would think of them as a gambler with a serious gambling addiction. We will lose control when emotions provoke us because we have experienced many defeats. We can't imagine a gambler who can initially control themselves, and finally, after gambling often and experiencing more and more losses, they slowly lose control of themselves.

The importance of the role of family, no matter how bad it is for us to gamble, don't ever leave your family, let alone not be honest with them that you are a gambler, no one cares about your life, everyone may only be able to give advice and even that may be difficult for you to accept, because addicts will not can be cured only with advice without encouragement from those closest to him. for example, his family is very important.

I know how the process of healing gambling addiction is because I saw my friend do it himself because he had exceeded his normal limits as a gambler so he had to start from himself without having to involve other people, his family only gave him encouragement so that he could recover from his addiction. Finally, after several years, he managed to recover. Now he enjoys life without gambling and is happy with his family.
But there are still many who are not honest with their families, especially when it comes to gambling. They feel it is better to hide their gambling activities than to tell other family members, even though hiding their gambling activities from their family members can cause problems that they will never realize. And yes, if someone is addicted to gambling and gets advice from other family members, maybe they won't be able to accept it easily, and maybe there should be someone else outside the circle of family members who can advise him so that he wants to reduce his gambling activities.

Your friend is willing to realize his gambling addiction and is willing to learn to heal himself even though there is no family to help him and only encourage him. But maybe for him, that was enough, so he continued to undergo the process of healing his gambling addiction until he finally recovered. It requires very strong determination and effort, and perhaps only a few can do it.
