It's New Year here in our country and I happened to bump into an old friend who narrated a story about how he almost suffered a heart attack after he won a big amount of money in a casino, this was several months ago, he's lucky that his son was around at that time so he got the right treatment at the right time.

He did not know that his hypertension had gotten worse since he can gamble even if he has this, he is taking medicines and doing relaxation but big winnings must have triggered this.
My question is :
Do you know the status of your health while gambling and what do you do if you happen to suffer a mild or hard stroke?
This is why I make it a point to open my messenger and have my loved one that I can contact in case, whenever I'm playing alone.

When I gamble I usually start gambling by sitting quietly alone. Because I like to gamble alone so that I don't have my mind on the other side, I prefer silence all the time. But considering all your information it is very foolish to be alone, it is normal for a gambler to become addicted to gambling and later die. So I am careful from today that I will never be alone, even if I gamble with a small amount of wealth.

It's natural because every gambler has different habits in enjoying their gambling sessions and maybe you are one of those gamblers who prefer to spend gambling sessions in solitude, no one forbids because all decisions are in your own hands, and maybe by now you already know that deciding to spend gambling sessions in solitude will trigger things that are out of control to easily happen. One of the reasons is because in such a situation there will be no one to help you enforce some of the boundaries you've set, and chances are you'll get carried away when emotions get the best of you.

So maybe I don't have a problem with your decision to gamble on your own but I don't think it's a good decision because it can lead to out-of-control actions that can eventually lead to addiction, on the other hand, thank goodness you have realized everything and I hope you stay firm with your new plan.

Sometimes people are always addicted to playing gambling online and this has made them loss alot of funds, due to always topping up theire casino account with there debit card when they loose. and this usually makes them exhaust all there funds.

While those people playing offline in casino halls play with only the little money they have at hand, and that will reduce the risk of over spending. So now my question is this

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?
of course online casinos are more risky because all the methods to deposit money are now on our finger tips.
we can deposit whatever amount is in our bank account and if someday our mind get disturbed anyone can blow their all savings. people say play responsibility but sometimes our mind gets stopped totally.
also offline casinos are more fun then online casinos, and very enjoying experience there. it reduce risk in terms of spending too much.

But isn't it still a possibility if they don't keep the amount of money or all the money they have in their account? I understand that the times are getting more sophisticated and usually people have an account for transaction purposes but on the other hand there are still some of them who don't even have an account at all and that can break the idea that online gambling is more dangerous or more likely to cost you a lot of money than offline gambling. If you're asking about which one is more fun then I think it depends on everyone's level of fun but if you're asking about which one will cost you more money between online or offline gambling then obviously both types have the same level of risk.

So the bottom line in my opinion is that all gambling has the same risk whether it's online or offline and about whether you will run out of more money or not it all depends on how you approach online or offline gambling, if you have an excessive approach then obviously wherever you gamble then you will run out of a lot of money.
1543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 03, 2024, 05:52:19 PM
I do not trust any experts and this applies not only to gambling as even if someone has received an expert title for his past predictions it does not mean that his future predictions will be 100% correct. As we can see people are often wrong, so when making any decisions based on someone else's opinion, keep in mind that all financial risks are borne by you, not the expert you listened to. He bears only reputational risks.   

I don't think this problem is a difficult one to solve, in gambling all outcomes are always unknowable, logically it's not gambling if any of the gamblers could know the outcome at the end, and if they could wouldn't they be one of the richest people in the world? Obviously but the fact of the matter is most gamblers suffer defeat and only a few of them can get such good luck with winning streaks.

Honestly at first glance I laughed when I heard that there was an expert in the field of gambling, what makes more sense is that I would believe that person if they basically owned their own casino because obviously they control all the fate of gamblers about whether they will win or lose in every session they do, but if they are nothing more than the usual person who tries to convince others that they are an expert in gambling without providing evidence of winning consecutive transactions then obviously I would say someone is stupid if they believe everything said by that person. So the point is that in gambling you can never avoid the risk of losing.

In my opinion, it is clear that everyone who gambles wants a big win and many of them expect this to happen, but even though this hope they have will only make them addicted to gambling and those who are not satisfied with the winnings they get, of course they will have different motives,  namely their motive is to chase a bigger win on the other hand, in my opinion, by chasing a win like that, it will only make them experience bigger losses, because by chasing the win they hope for, it is possible that the win will be lost again and because This means they become annoyed which results in them making another deposit to return to gambling in the hope of recovering the losses that have occurred.

But in my opinion this will make them experience considerable losses with a sense of dissatisfaction that they do is gambling without stopping before their finances run out because if they have a sense of dissatisfaction no matter how big the victory will not be the end of gambling,  the dissatisfaction that exists can make them a big loss, in my opinion it would be better when you get a win it's better to cash it in than to follow the dissatisfaction that will only bring disaster to themselves. so I think they have to feel enough with what they have got, don't go crazy when they win.
But how many times have you put aside your dissatisfaction, put aside your pursuits and annoyances to choose a small piece of luck like a pea that comes from gambling? How many times do we think clearly before playing like that but at the same time that's how many times we continue, there are so many explanations for the moment we don't withdraw money and double or even all the next time, even how many times we become childrenss haven't touched victory yet but have easily drawn many scenes such as richer, nicer cars and a more prosperous life

When you are one of those people who always overdo it and are also involved in gambling with the wrong understanding and mindset then in my opinion it is very unlikely for you to put aside your dissatisfaction with the final result, as I said before that winning is not the end of the game. gambling, when in a situation like that they will apply greed for the sake of something bigger even though in fact it is still uncertain, one of the things that makes them desperate to apply greed is because they are too  confident in something that is basically just a hallucination. Chasing a tiny bit of victory by sacrificing a ton of money isn't that unreasonable, isn't it? What we have to understand in gambling is that the more you try, the more losses you will experience because  after all, it is difficult to get lucky in a row.

Gamblers can experience changes when they are in a gambling session, which is what makes it difficult for them to maintain self-control and the boundaries they have set at the beginning and that can also be one of the reasons why they do not withdraw early when they have won. So all wins are still hallucinations if the final result has not happened.

~snip~
Errors in expectations have always been a major problem for most gamblers in the sense that they come for a win, usually the scenario that will occur is that when they manage to get a win then that's where they will start to further increase their hopes and beliefs in a win and get crazier in approaching gambling such as increasing the number of bets for a much bigger win later. And obviously that is a big mistake because in gambling there is absolutely no certainty whatsoever for the final result, believe me putting hope or increasing the hope of winning at gambling is the same as making the level of disappointment higher when the final result turns out to be losing.

Basically it is very difficult to be able to know the real facts in how gambling works if from the beginning they come with the wrong mindset and point of view, then what will happen and they experience is digging holes closing holes, or what it means is chasing victory to restore defeat, there is no time limit set if you have entered a cycle like that and that is the cycle of addiction that should be avoided, because the pressure of the many problems that arise such as financial ruin will make you really feel uncomfortable, down or not infrequently even depressed and crazy because they run out of all their property. I think the realization will really come when they have run out of everything.
It is a common mistake that many gamblers often encounter who think that they can win easily from gambling. They don't know that getting a win is very difficult, and even if they use more money, it doesn't guarantee they can win, especially if there are people who want to earn or make gambling their main income. He will certainly experience great disappointment because he failed before he succeeded in making money. Perhaps he can make money but not too big, but if he continues gambling again, that still doesn't guarantee he can win another big win. Many people have experienced losses even bigger than they imagined before they started gambling. But that doesn't stop them from continuing to gamble. And if that happens, they should stop gambling and think about what they should do when gambling. They should immediately decide to look for income from other places to get it.

It is difficult to realize the facts in gambling, especially if we have often seen videos of big wins from people on social media who say it is easy to get big wins as long as they know the secret. But whatever it is, gambling games, especially slots, depend on luck. With luck, they will be able to win easily. As you said, they can experience financial ruin if they don't have good self-control. Many people have also experienced financial ruin because they gamble too often. They must be able to reduce their gambling activities before they are drawn deeper into gambling.

It's a good idea to take a look at a few of the more common mistakes that people make when they're gambling, such as the fact that they've just been involved in gambling with the initial scenario of getting a win and of course all the hopes and beliefs they apply after that incident so that they can feel that winning is not a difficult thing to get, even though the previous victory they managed to achieve was none other than because at the same time luck also came so that it made the final result in accordance with what they wanted. However, the fact of the matter is as you said that getting a win from gambling is very difficult, sometimes we can get a win when we don't put any expectations on gambling, and isn't this a strong proof and reason that gambling is really about luck? I think that's clear.

Basically as I have said before that  putting hope and increasing confidence will only make you feel excessive disappointment at the end of the session when the final result loses, if you still have such hopes then immediately realize the real facts, because I'm sure there will be  a lot of experiments that you do and of course it will make you experience more and more number of defeats. Well true, there are so many things that will make us affected such as other people's winning videos that can certainly make us more eager to pursue victory, and maybe like I said that they will realize if  they have run out of everything..
1546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you care about what people say about you gambling? on: January 02, 2024, 10:25:07 PM
If you're asking that then maybe my answer is pretty much the same as some of the other people here in that I don't really care what they say, plus lately I've been spending more of my accountable money to engage in this type of online gambling like slots for one, weekends are the perfect time for me to risk a little of my money, to be honest I very rarely gamble outside or in public places even though I basically gamble using a cell phone (to reduce the suspicion of others) and I mostly gamble at home in the middle of the night by enjoying a cup of coffee on the balcony of the house when all family members are asleep. So while I don't really care what other people have to say about my gambling activities, the gambling I do is always private so it reduces the potential for other people to find out what I'm doing on my cell phone.
1547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: With gambling, it's probably easier to quit cold turkey on: January 02, 2024, 09:18:37 PM
Addiction is still the main problem for regular gamblers, even tough compulsive gambling actions will lead to destructive behavior let's not forget the possible consequences for those who can't control this "funny activity". Quitting gambling addiction is not easy for some gamblers it is as easy as just banning the casino account on online gambling platforms. Decreasing the gambling activity has some positive effect on this purpose btw, so it depends on the person how he wants to quit gambling.

It is clear that addiction is always the worst impact that exists in gambling, someone will do anything for gambling and they will not be able to make any considerations in common sense, simply put people who are already addicted they will never stop doing various ways just to gamble. Obviously for the problem of consequences can never be tolerated, if you are involved in gambling then that means you must be prepared with all the risks that are clearly certain to occur, you can get a win but the risk will usually occur more often.

Of course, quitting or getting out of the addiction zone is difficult and even almost impossible for some people who do not have assertiveness in themselves, all they will feel is a lot of pressure as a result of addiction such as  experiencing financial problems etc., which is why we must always be able to apply self-control and some limits, every gambler can recover from addiction and they have their own way but unfortunately not all gamblers can do it because it is difficult to achieve awareness when the mindset is dominated by hopes for victory.

I think That's what they have to realize, many of them have big hopes in gambling even though if they have hopes in gambling it will only make them disappointed in the future with losses that will occur and be experienced by themselves. The level of difficulty in winning at gambling is clear, because I think many people who gamble only lose, and in my opinion it is clear that the chance of winning is slimmer than the chance of losing Also,  sometimes the money they spend to win can be a lot, while the winnings they get usually cannot cover the losses which have caused them to lose a large amount of money. for those who gamble in pursuit of victory, in my opinion they will not achieve success even though there is a chance but it is almost impossible, therefore I am sure they will fail by gambling and will not be completely successful, let alone successful.

Many of them go crazy about gambling because they themselves gamble excessively, and obviously something like this will certainly harm them financially. You are right that at a young age they should work hard to get a clear and steady income,  but don't let them fall into gambling which can trap them, because with current technological developments it is easy for many people to get to know gambling by just seeing it on the internet. can trigger them to gamble which could make them addicted to gambling.
It is better for them to erase their big hopes in gambling. They can feel disappointment because they cannot achieve what they want. They already know that the level of difficulty in winning is high and clear, but they still force themselves to continue gambling as if they think that they can win if they continue gambling. That will only increase the number of losses, and ultimately, they will lose large amounts of money. Those who have managed to win should not chase their winnings anymore because that is enough for them even though they still have other losses. At least they should be able to stop gambling so they don't experience defeat. Often, the losses they will experience if they continue gambling will be greater than the number of wins they have obtained. That's why if we can win, we should immediately stop gambling and leave the casino before we experience bad things.

However, if they prefer to continue gambling, they will only fall deeper into gambling and will end up running out of money. They must be aware of this. After all, gambling is just entertainment that should not be taken too seriously. Otherwise, they will not be able to enjoy gambling because they will think about winning big. Those who want to use gambling as a source of income will experience disappointment because it is not what they expected.

Errors in expectations have always been a major problem for most gamblers in the sense that they come for a win, usually the scenario that will occur is that when they manage to get a win then that's where they will start to further increase their hopes and beliefs in a win and get crazier in approaching gambling such as increasing the number of bets for a much bigger win later.

I think the realization will really come when they have run out of everything.
1549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and health concern on: January 02, 2024, 07:52:11 PM
This is the more reason we have to be careful while gambling. It has always been advised that we go for health check up once a year to know how our body system is doing. It's also important we visit a health consultant, because gambling is an even that is capable of changing our behavior and mood. The outcome of our gambling can either make us happy, shocked, sad, etc so it very important to consider your health condition before embarking on any gambling journey. Your health is more important than any pleasure life can offer, so why risk it over small benefits of merit life can throw at us.

For that problem, of course, applying caution and vigilance when we are in a gambling session is indeed recommended because however prevention must be prioritized to minimize so that the amount of our defeat is not too large. Checking health consistently every certain period of time is good because with that, the state of our health will be controlled but do you know that only a few people will care about their health? usually such people are those who have good finances or rich people, while isn't gambling for everyone? obviously, meaning that the situation is not as easy as you say because maybe some people are busier for other things, and also for poor or middle class people they will be more concerned with other things than doing health checks, the limited money factor is one of the problems.

We must know that there are also many poor people who gamble but are not at all concerned about their health, it will all come back to each individual, if they think health is more important then they will definitely do frequent checks but if they are more concerned with other things such as gambling even though basically it is an activity that is not recommended then surely they will still choose it. On the other hand, I'm sure the person mentioned by the OP is one of the people I mentioned.
1550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online or offline gambling which is more safer? on: January 02, 2024, 06:39:37 PM
It doesn't really matter if it is online or offline gambling, if they want to continue they would.
In online gambling they would top up every time they would lose, in offline gambling they might borrow money just to continue.So it doesn't really matter if it is offline or online it all depends on how they could control their self.

From both types of gambling offline or online still both still have the potential for bad possibilities and also the possibility of winning, so if we talk about the concept of gambling then obviously offline or online has the same percentage of possibilities whether it is in terms of winning opportunities or losing risks, and the conclusion is that no one is safe between these two types of gambling, still if you bet in an excessive way then obviously bad possibilities will be experienced in your gambling activity involvement.

You already said what actions they will take when they overdo it, as you said if they are involved in online gambling then they will top up again when they lose and if they are involved in offline casinos then one of the things that might happen is obviously they will borrow from the casino agent or some people they know there. So if you ask which one is safer then I can't answer to give a choice, because obviously both have the same possibility of bad risks, the point is that if you really want to be safe and avoid losses then obviously you are better off not gambling.
1551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling game is not good and everyone should stay away from it on: January 02, 2024, 06:17:29 PM

It depends on each person who gambles. If they can use gambling properly, they can control themselves and will not be affected by anything they see in gambling. But if they want to use gambling to make money, it is not a good choice because they will experience losses. The loss could be greater if they lose control of themselves. Besides that, they also have the opportunity to develop a gambling addiction that is difficult to cure. So they should think first whether they really need gambling to serve as entertainment or whether they can look for other means of entertainment besides gambling. There are still many things they can do to get entertainment and not just play gambling, where in gambling games, there is a risk of loss, which they may not be able to face.

True, because every gambler has a different approach and management in his gambling activities, I think such people are only those who come with a goal that is not excessive, such as maybe just to fill their empty time when bored and get some entertainment from gambling (not including victory). On the other hand of course it is true, for people who come with the aim of earning then usually the opposite happens, in the sense that they even experience a lot of defeats and even in a row, none other than because for such people they will make more attempts to get a win while on the other hand luck is unknown and it is difficult to be able to get luck in a row.

With excessive action in pursuit of victory then surely they will find many things that upset them such as losing and of course obviously it will make them more emotional and will never stop gambling while having money to bet, and if they can't stop from such situations then obviously addiction is in front of their eyes, their days will get worse and worse in gambling, most likely some valuable items will be sold for gambling and they will only stop when they have run out of everything and at that time then regret comes with a little bit of awareness. Right, so making gambling as entertainment is really more advisable because after all this is a risky activity.
When viewed as a lighthearted kind of entertainment, gambling can be enjoyable. Like during a game night with friends, the experience is more important than the result. Moderation is the key. Those who bet only for fun and with little risk frequently find betting to be a delightful diversion. Acknowledging that it's a random game, they accept the odds

Conversely, striving for consistent victories when gambling is pointless and annoying, akin to attempting to nail jelly to a wall. As luck is a fickle companion, chasing win can easily turn into a vicious cycle of setbacks and mental anguish. Keep in mind that casinos are not made on wins. The edge is always with the house. Remember, it's all in the game, and let's keep it light and enjoyable. A shrewd gambler understands when to fold, when to hold, and most crucially, when to give up

Now that's a good idea, I agree with what you said that gambling is only allowed for light entertainment activities, because obviously even if you come with the intention of just having fun it doesn't mean that you will avoid the possibility of risk, so the risk will not be completely avoidable and with the idea and it is very possible that one day you can also get into addiction unconsciously because you cannot limit the activity even if your goal is for fun and if you are too often involved then it is the same.  "light entertainment activities" and also being able to accept that gambling is nothing more than a random activity with an understanding of the risks is really recommended.

Of course, having the right understanding and knowledge that chasing winnings is one of the actions that will waste a lot of time and money in my opinion such a notion will only come out of the mouth of someone who uses common sense, because it is almost impossible for gamblers to be able to achieve such good wins, It's a business for casinos and it's obviously their goal to make a profit from losing gamblers and that's one of the reasons why more people lose than win when you try to chase the win, if you don't believe me just count all the budgets you've bet, I'm sure you'll be shocked when you see the number of losses is much greater, so it's better to gamble with small money and also with a time limit, anyway if luck comes you will also win.
1552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: January 02, 2024, 05:56:49 PM
Its actually correct. Playing gamble in front of your kids potrays a bad image in them. Because definately it will surely affect them as they grew older. children are very captive, meaning they have that skill of capturing things quick at a little stage, and that is the main cause why they should be avoided when gambling. Addiction is easy but very difficult to pull out. And when. It has gotten to that extent of not being able to stop them it become a prayer point.

That's right, small children are very easy to pick up on things quickly, therefore it's best not to gamble in front of children, even though gambling is allowed in your country, it's not good if you do it in front of children, because there are countries that allow gambling. It is done in general, but in my opinion, of course gambling has a bad impact which can make a person change quickly or slowly, this of course must be avoided, because changes in a person that occur because of gambling are not good changes, but bad changes. .

I think someone who gambles should hopefully not do this because this could make them familiar with gambling before they are the age they should be, because even though they will later learn about gambling themselves, that doesn't mean we have to tell them at an age they shouldn't, because if they are educated with the wrong method, of course their future will likely be chaotic, therefore it is best if you really want to gamble, just do it yourself, not in front of the children, because this will bring disaster later.
1553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 02, 2024, 05:34:58 PM
I don't believe on experts but I believe on luck,,, hope you understand what I mean?
If we are talking of experts that means the whole time they played gamble, they will win and not lose even one round but when I talk about luck, I mean that you are not losing enough money but gaining more money from gamble.
However even if someone gives me a game to bet and he or she said I should bet big amount of money in it, I will only bet the amount that I can afford to lose and not over stake. Just in case the game lost I will not have to regret my actions.
Finally, even if I win the game, I will be happy for the little I have gotten.

That's clear, I think only fools believe the experts when it comes to gambling, for the problem of results is completely unknowable or and maybe just a few indications such as the spin looks to be good but that also cannot be used as a reference that we will win. And only luck can really ensure that you get a win, nothing more than that. Honestly, I never thought that in gambling there is such a thing as an expert, and there is a point as you say if they are experts then obviously they are great at getting wins in gambling, but in fact, yes some OP friends have lost and isn't that stupid? obviously, the promise of 100% victory that the experts say is just nonsense.

The point is gambling is only about luck in my opinion, because the final result is always about winning and losing and anyone never knows when he will win and lose, so everything is still gray, if gambling results can be predicted then wouldn't many people become billionaires? of course but the reality is not like that. On the other hand, I agree with you that it is better to put only the amount that we can afford, because there is no certainty of winning, so it is better for prevention so that you do not lose a large amount.
Absolutely, it seems you already knows what on my mind.. with this I can say that we are all on the same ship,,, the important things about gambling is just to know the source of your winnings, it you don't know the source of your winnings that means you should get ready to start losing money in gamble.

A lot of gamblers thinks that they are an expert when it comes to betting predictions but that's not true the really reasons they win is that the luck of winning is with them at that time and anytime the luck of winning is no more with them, they starts losing.

Obviously because for people who have or think with common sense then all of that will not make sense, especially what we are discussing in this context. So do not be easily tempted by anything that comes to you especially some of the offers made by experts by giving some promises that look very tempting such as a 100% winning percentage. You said a good thing that all gamblers are in the same boat and that means the chances of winning and the risk of losing will also be the same but the difference is that we don't know when the victory will come because only luck can ensure it, so don't put your trust in other sources such as experts, it's too stupid and I'm sure you come to gambling without having any understanding of what the gambling world is and how it works so you get caught with some offers that look tempting and end up regretting it because it's all just nonsense.

I think they are too focused on someone who is called an "expert" so that with that they can already assume that the so-called expert is clearly certain to have understanding and knowledge that can be trusted even though in fact there is no evidence that can confirm lol. So of course we have to go back to the initial understanding that however in gambling it is always about winning and losing, no matter how good you are there is still no 100% accurate prediction.
1554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: January 02, 2024, 01:50:11 PM

This can happen to people who are not satisfied with what they have got, because those who are not satisfied with the winnings they have won will deposit money again and perhaps with a larger amount because they feel it will be easy to get the winnings again. so they bet again with a large amount. and if they can't control themselves, maybe they will do this continuously without realizing the risk of losing a large amount of their money.
and the wins they get make them believe they can win again if they gamble again, but what they should realize is that the wins they get are based on luck, and luck certainly won't last long with us, that's what we have to pay attention to. that's clear, especially when they get a win they can think it's a chance they can get a bigger win by exceeding the win they've already got, of course to get a bigger win they will increase the amount of their bet to get a win, and the possibility is in the next round they will only experience defeat which will make them lose self-control and make everything chaotic.

Your opinion is absolutely correct, that someone who is not satisfied with what he has obtained will try to pursue it again until his desires are truly achieved and in accordance with his expectations. It's like in gambling, if someone has won, he will not necessarily be satisfied with just one or two wins, maybe he will chase it until he is tired and feels satisfied. Then slowly he will experience defeat and that is the result if he is greedy in gambling. Instead of making a profit, he will experience a lot of losses there and that's what actually happens in gambling, it's just luck for the person who gets it.

In my opinion, it is clear that everyone who gambles wants a big win and many of them expect this to happen, but even though this hope they have will only make them addicted to gambling and those who are not satisfied with the winnings they get, of course they will have different motives,  namely their motive is to chase a bigger win on the other hand, in my opinion, by chasing a win like that, it will only make them experience bigger losses, because by chasing the win they hope for, it is possible that the win will be lost again and because This means they become annoyed which results in them making another deposit to return to gambling in the hope of recovering the losses that have occurred.

But in my opinion this will make them experience considerable losses with a sense of dissatisfaction that they do is gambling without stopping before their finances run out because if they have a sense of dissatisfaction no matter how big the victory will not be the end of gambling,  the dissatisfaction that exists can make them a big loss, in my opinion it would be better when you get a win it's better to cash it in than to follow the dissatisfaction that will only bring disaster to themselves. so I think they have to feel enough with what they have got, don't go crazy when they win.

It's true, gambling is based on one's own actions, there is no element of coercion from anyone, after all, gambling is clearly likely to get a defeat which is certainly detrimental, and I think those who gamble should not think about let alone question the losses that have occurred. because it is a natural thing, the name of gambling is sure that there are losses that will occur, and this loss can be felt by all those who gamble without exception, because the chances of a big defeat become more dominating than the chances of a small victory.

someone who is used to gambling maybe he doesn't mind the loss,  but one day he has a friend who wants to know about gambling because all he knows is about winning, obviously he becomes curious about gambling, and maybe the person who is used to gambling tells him everything in gambling is also very sure he tells about the victory that is difficult to get  so in my opinion if someone is gambling and experiencing harmful things it is natural, but if they blame friends or other people for the losses they have received it is not natural. then it's better not to gamble.

People tend to forget that the act of gambling is a conscious and intentional one. You barely have anyone point a gun to your head to gamble, you consciously put your own money into your oen choice of game without no one telling you to. The question is, why would you blame someone who is entirely out of the gambling equation for the loss you incurred while gambling?

If anyone talked to you about his wins in gmabling, it is still within your power to toss his counsel into the bin and walk your part

Gambling is indeed a game of choice despite if your are being persuaded by anyone to join but if you are into gambling and incurring too many losses the best is just to quit or limit your gambling rate rather than putting blame on someone that introduced you into gambling, in every thing in life, it is your decision to choose either get involved or not that's why most gambling inscribed their gambling sites with ",play responsibly" as you are responsible for any action you choose to take.

I think That's better, those who experience a lot of losses should be able to think that the losses that occurred were because of themselves. If they really want to blame, it's better to blame themselves because that's more natural than blaming other people, even if it's blaming the person who invited them to gamble in the first place. and it's true what you say, rather than blaming other people for the losses that have occurred, it's better for them to just stop, that's a quite reasonable solution, because not only will the losses be avoided, but it's also possible that they won't have problems with their finances, because there are many people who experience financial problems by gambling.

Apart from that, we should be responsible for the actions we take, because of all the things we do, of course we ourselves have to overcome and face the results of the actions we have taken, whether it is a loss or a gain, it is best not to blame other people. because it can trigger arguments, where they will not accept that they are blamed for our own actions. So it's better to introspect yourself, don't throw stones and hide your hands, because that's not a responsible action, in my opinion it's the same as a coward who doesn't want to admit his mistake.

~snip~
It's clear that they definitely have thoughts that will be able to win in the next gambling game. Hope isn't wrong, in my opinion, but sometimes the hopes they have can make them become addicted periodically, especially if they have thoughts that can earn income. Still from gambling, it is very unlikely that this can happen smoothly, because in my opinion there will definitely be a phase where they lose and this will clearly happen. also with the losses they will experience more often if they make gambling a permanent source of income. In my opinion, it will be difficult for them to realize this, and if they can realize it, it is also because they themselves do not receive advice from other people, because someone who is addicted to gambling usually does not want to accept advice from other people.
That's true, at a young age I think they should be aware that being at a young age can enable them to get a decent job with a clear income too. not by just being lazy and gambling, because that will not change their situation completely. And it's true what you said with today's young people, many of them want to produce quickly without wanting to go through the process, that's a shame, because to be able to produce, of course there has to be a process that goes through.
If it is gambling, they should be able to think that high hopes can disappoint them, so they don't need to think about winning the gambling game because the level of difficulty is very high. They also have to think about how much money they have to use to get the win they want. Instead of experiencing losses that might be bigger, they are better off using gambling as entertainment and not gambling excessively because losses will come if they lose control of themselves in gambling. And if they want to make gambling a job or even want to make it a source of income, they may incur even greater losses. Many people have experienced failure from using gambling as a source of income, so we don't need to try it. Otherwise, we will also experience failure. In the end, we can go bankrupt and lose all the money.

At a young age, they should try to find work in many business fields or create their own business because nowadays, young people cannot just rely on work. They are required to be more creative in making money to develop even better. And now, many young people are starting to start their businesses, individually or with their friends. And with their still productive age, they can get good ideas to apply so that if they can create a business, they can reach their generation and develop their business even bigger.

I think That's what they have to realize, many of them have big hopes in gambling even though if they have hopes in gambling it will only make them disappointed in the future with losses that will occur and be experienced by themselves. The level of difficulty in winning at gambling is clear, because I think many people who gamble only lose, and in my opinion it is clear that the chance of winning is slimmer than the chance of losing Also,  sometimes the money they spend to win can be a lot, while the winnings they get usually cannot cover the losses which have caused them to lose a large amount of money. for those who gamble in pursuit of victory, in my opinion they will not achieve success even though there is a chance but it is almost impossible, therefore I am sure they will fail by gambling and will not be completely successful, let alone successful.

Many of them go crazy about gambling because they themselves gamble excessively, and obviously something like this will certainly harm them financially. You are right that at a young age they should work hard to get a clear and steady income,  but don't let them fall into gambling which can trap them, because with current technological developments it is easy for many people to get to know gambling by just seeing it on the internet. can trigger them to gamble which could make them addicted to gambling.
1557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you lose on slots? on: January 02, 2024, 12:05:02 PM
That's right, gambling is clearly done by them of their own accord as well as with what they do with other things, and if they do it accompanied by drinking alcohol it is likely that they will not do it completely by considering it well, because they are under the influence of alcohol which can makes them not focus on carrying out an action. Even if they gamble without the influence of alcohol, the chances are that they will lose, and if they gamble under the influence of alcohol, they will probably gamble out of control without considering everything properly.
That's what must be avoided, don't let us lose when we are enthusiastic about making another deposit, this needs to be avoided, because even without being influenced by alcohol, this can happen, especially if under the influence of alcohol it is possible that everything will become chaotic, because we gambling while completely unconscious.
It's a very bad mistake if a gambler before carrying out gambling activities drinks large amounts of alcohol which makes him lose himself, whereas if the gambler plays slot games, I'm not sure he can last longer or even just a few spins, he loses without being able to control his mind because of the influence of alcohol. of course, you will continue to increase the number of bets or maybe bet all in in one spin or buy spin bonus.

I very rarely see gamblers who are affected by alcohol playing in slot games but usually they play in card games but if it is done in slot games I can't imagine what if he will run out of his savings in just a few hours because as you said if If you can't control your thoughts, you will definitely make another deposit while playing this slot game without being influenced alcohol. a gambler can lose control, even if he is influenced by alcohol, his savings balance will definitely be destroyed.

I think This could happen because under the influence of alcohol, of course our minds are not fully conscious, especially if gambling is related to money, this will obviously result in huge losses, perhaps that is so, because many people gamble without being under the influence of alcohol, they can lose self-control. especially if they gamble while drinking alcohol, of course this is not a good thing, I often lose when gambling on slots, and I am sure that 80% of all people who gamble on slots experience losses, not wins, because slot gambling itself was founded to make a profit, not give any win for all gamblers because if it were like that, maybe there would be many people who gamble and always have a profit, but unfortunately all of that is not real, in fact many people get more dominant losses.

Even though they gamble without being influenced by alcohol, I'm sure they have done things they shouldn't, such as making another deposit when they lose, and maybe it's clear that if they gamble on slots and are influenced by alcohol, they will gamble without being able to control their emotions, chances are they will always be emotional. with the gambling they do, so they don't see how much money they spend in a short period of time, maybe if you drink a little it's not a problem, if it's to calm their mind, but I think if you really want to calm your mind it's better to drink alcohol but Don't gamble, because that can reduce the risk of your own losses.

It must be a really big amount that triggers the blood pressure. Hypertension causes stroke whichever feelings a patient may have so long as it is a burst of feeling I guess it could cause stroke or death at worst.

The environment you have while gambling online isn't affecting much of your feelings though whether you lose or not. I think online gamblers are safe unlike those in the arena or on-the-table games.

True, with what he experienced or what he meant to have a heart attack due to the surprise of the victory he managed to get then here we can already conclude a little that the victory must be very big for him, even though it was a very happy thing but he had a disease that was easily affected by situations such as stroke, The heart attack was triggered by the unusual burst of endorphins felt so that the shock caused the brain nerves to be disrupted and triggered the recurrence of their disease (for those who have), on the other hand fortunately he was in a fairly favorable situation as the OP said that at the same time he was with one of his sons so he could get timely treatment.

I think wherever you gamble whether it's in an online or offline casino it will still affect your feelings, the shock of victory does not know the environment where you gamble, I have one friend who is involved in online gambling, a few days ago he managed to get the maximum win on the type of slot game, he was surprised and the reaction he gave off was extraordinary which eventually made his gatget thrown and broken, that's one example so no matter where you gamble, the reaction from the sensation you will feel is still the same.
1559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino games and the house edge : Players odds to win? on: January 01, 2024, 04:04:01 PM
I remember enquiring to the customer service of one of the crypto-casinos years ago about the house edge for some of their slot-type game (if I remember correctly) and not only the customer service could not give me an answer - they didn't even know what the house edge was.
I bet you mate they know, oh yes the customer service correctly have an idea of the house edge but only pulled up that professional stunt to  dodge from giving you the answer you seek. It could be that the ratio of their house edge could be so discouraging for any gambler to believe that they can stand a chance if they should have knowledge of it. What I think every gambler should be doing is observing how much you lose on a particular game of a casino despite all manner of strategies used, in that way you can judge for yourself if the odds of winning in terms of the house edge is actually fair or not.
When it comes to slot HE then it isnt something that you would really be asking. Why? it would be understandable that it would be that huge comparing into those typical games like Dice or other similar ones. We do consider out that there are factors that would be affecting those things specially into that different RTP percentage and other similar stuffs on which it would really be that affecting in overall
winning chance. This is why on the time that you do make some gambling then it would be always better that you should really be that mindful or really that making up some realizations that house do always win at the end unless if you do really get engaged with those strategic games then it might really be that needing that different approach.

Basically it is very difficult to be able to get a type of gambling where the house only takes a little profit, especially if you are involved in a type of gambling like the slot you said where the percentage of winning is very much smaller than the risk of losing which usually often happens in a row and we can see that there is enough evidence that most people who cannot keep their involvement safe then usually they will lose unexpected amounts and even lose all valuable assets or go crazy.

Speaking of RTP machines I think it's a foolishness and deception made by casinos to increase the confidence of gamblers who want to play, if you believe in the percentage of RTP machines then I think you should immediately change your belief, the logic is that RTP machines are made by the casinos themselves and obviously I think there are quite a lot of suspicions that we should think about, honestly I have tried several RTP machines at several online casinos which turned out not to be in line with expectations, such as for example RTP shows a high percentage of around 90% and above and when I try several times it turns out the same results still lose. So don't trust easily because winning always depends on how lucky you are at that time, and also on the other hand be careful and firm on self-control and the limits you have made, don't focus too much on winning but focus on preventive measures.
1560  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: It will save your capital more than you can imagine on: January 01, 2024, 03:43:08 PM
Simply put, this is the science of capital and risk management. you are right this is necessary. It's just that before that, I believe we must first learn to control our emotions, this is even more important because with controlled emotions our decisions will definitely be very wise. we become less anxious about taking any risks. We can always accept the results, usually this method is successful in achieving profits according to the target, this depends on how we can control it all. Be careful with greed, it is very dangerous for our assets.
You are right there mate. It’s hard to resort into cut loss when your emotions are against on it. Most of the  time, our emotions control our decisions that’s why we lose consistently in the process. Cutting our losses is a big decision that will change the outcome of our trades, but if we think our trades will not head into positivity, hence we should go cutting our losses. And we can only do that if we can manage our emotions as well so that the outcome of our decision will not be compromised.

Of course, because emotions become one of our biggest enemies when we trade or mean involved in the world of trading, it is always a big problem when the results at the end of the session are not as desired or mean the strategy they use misses so they end up losing, but that's natural because after all this is trading where risk always cannot be avoided completely.

It is not easy and even very difficult for most traders to be able to manage their own emotions when such situations are happening and most of those who do not have any management and planning on their trading engagements and that is why many end up with a large amount of losses that eventually make them give up and fail. So the most important point is that management and self-control really need to be emphasized for prevention when you are in such situations.
