When they are addicted to gambling, they can do things that can harm other people, one of which is by borrowing money to gamble again. I think when they are addicted to gambling and borrow money to gamble, of course it will be difficult for them to be able to pay off the loans they have made because remembering that gambling will only drain their money is real, and usually when they lose at gambling they will not think about loans. what he has done and of course it could lead to their families being affected. I also think there have been many cases of households being destroyed when one of them was seriously addicted to gambling because his finances were only focused on gambling.

We should be able to take responsibility for all the actions we take, including gambling. If indeed gambling has made us lose a lot of money, then stopping is the best choice, not by borrowing money to gamble again with the dream of a miracle happening that can make them win and be able to pay off the loan they have made. Gambling responsibly is a must.

Players are not mainly prepared to be responsible on the long run. Some meaningful attitudes that some gamblers exhibited at the early stages of their gambling journey, always diminishes accordingly as days gets gone by. What is most crucial in gambling is being able to understand how energy intensive gambling could be in a player's brain. Hence, it's a game that's meant to be prepared for before engaging on any session.

Negligence on responsible gambling is on the increase due the weary gambling journey players get to face after some months in the game. Once a players is no long emotionally stable as a result of getting exhausted in gambling, he gets to wager recklessly and play lowly just for the game to get over. Gambling will no longer interest the player. Hence, his choices will be greatly affected. Such decisions could then land the player's family in trouble.
162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Betting. Why the Distinction? on: May 22, 2024, 08:36:17 PM
For me, both gambling and betting is the same but with different ways in placing the money as the bet. Both gambling and betting using money and although some people says that's different. Maybe gambling is a game that is an activity that related to casino while betting is placing money to other type of casino. That casino can have sports betting for the activities while other casino have many games such as slot, cards, and other gambling games. But we knows that some online casino have both casino games and sport betting and that's the different. I thinks that can confuses many people about gambling and betting while I am not sure they will thinks about that. They just wants to playing some games with their money in the casino and that's also what people do for place their bet in sports betting.

I think there're synonyms with different applications in a sentence. Gambling is also understood as betting. The search results  showing for each words is gotten from the keywords different sites use in writing about the both words. The classification are best organized to fit into the sentences such as to increase readability. Sport betting sounds better than sport gambling. Yet, both words means similar things. I don't think they mean different things.

Between they're lots of synonyms that can be used to mean same thing. Whenever a person hears of gambling he'd remember or think of betting almost immediately. So the complications are not much, it's just a misconception for too many people. Wager also is a word that can substitute betting. In an ordinary level of reasoning, I'd add that gambling is a broad term for the niche. While betting is the act of spending money in gambling.
163  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stop gambling if you don’t have free time to do it on: May 20, 2024, 05:43:59 PM
that's what gamblers should do, that they can play, but they also need to manage their time and set limits so that gambling doesn't interfere with their activities. if they have to stop, then they just stop, and when they play, they know their limits, so they don't use too much money and it doesn't disturb their psychology. this can be said to be a responsible gambler, because responsible gamblers are those who can control their gambling, not vice versa, gambling controls them.
Some people don't even know when they can gamble or when they can be into serious things like their work and school hours and give their family time. Most gamblers that I have come across sometimes always believe that when ever they are in their right state of mind or have a game that comes to their mind to place a bet on (especially on sports betting),
 
They should leave whatever they are doing to play that game; you can't tell if that's going to be the right game that will change their life or not, and if you don't gamble at that time, you have to urge that you might miss the fun of gambling even if it takes the person to suspend whatever they are doing at that point in time.


Gambling requires enough time ready before a gambler can think properly on his moves and the right techniques to implement in his gambling game. However, some people get carried away or deceived that a specific time could be the better moment of gambling to increase their chances of winning. This false admittance will only affect the genuinety of the current work or task the player is currently working on. Gambling is not meant to be rushed. It's a simple game that's supposed to be calculated and the right choices made to avoid confusions or disputes on the long run.

I don't think gamblers should derive joy by gambling in a way that doesn't promote responsible gambling. This will only affect their finance on the long run. And put the player on a stage where he could continually wager money like this till a bitter moment of losses and financial break down. I admit the notion that gamblers should always wager when they have enough time to play. Unless the player is always busy with work and only has few moments to gamble in a day, it's always great for a player to observe his moves by offering enough time to it.
164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: May 20, 2024, 05:31:13 PM
I think it is very simple to say that all gamblers should not or are prohibited from taking risks that exceed their abilities regardless of whether they are rich or poor, because however rich or poor still have the same chances in terms of winning or losing, or that means rich and poor gamblers also have the opportunity to win but also have the possibility to lose.

Casinos never see or never care about a person's financial condition in life, the point is that if they are involved in gambling then they will have two possibilities at the end of the session which is between winning or losing, and also the amount of budget that is bet can in no way be used as a guarantee of victory at the end of the session which means that no matter how much risk you take there will always be a possibility for you to lose at the end of the session if you are unlucky. So the bottom line is that all gamblers are always advised to only take small risks or risks that they can afford at the end of the session especially when they lose regardless of being rich or poor.

Admittedly, unlike the general society, gambling has no special treatment for the rich. Everyone possess same chances of winning or losses. Nothing like who makes the most risk. The risks players take doesn't make any changes in improving their winning opportunities. To bring the argument down to the ordinary level, gamblers only need to wager what they have. If a rich gambler decides to wager huge amount of money, it must be what wouldn't affect his finance on the long run.

Aside money talks, which brought about the rich and the poor, gamblers have same tendency of behaving similarly according to their gambling category. A rich compulsive player will behave just as the low income compulsive player. I think the comparison should be focused on the financial status of the players. Rather on the behavior of gamblers.
165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling losses are traps to new game on: May 20, 2024, 04:00:58 PM
A casino company will never operate at a loss. Before gambling, never forget that the casino systems you are gambling in are designed in such a way that their profits remain and the results are more in favor of the casino. While playing casino games you must be a lucky person because luck is very important here as the systems are designed in their own way and the result is definitely nothing but luck. I always say that if you are gambling make sure you choose a gambling category that requires you to have some skill in gambling. If a gambler gambles based on his own skill, he can never gamble and say that he lost because luck was not on his side. For example, a sports bettor who plays must bet on sports based on his skill. Because if you don't know about different teams, you can't bet about sports.

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

Moreover, harnessing skills from gambling may include but not limited to money management, time limitations for slot players, and emotional self control. These things helps a gambler in all walks of life. Not just in the casino. That's a better knowledge from gambling for a person who is not interested in knowing about sports analysis. He'd be able to control how he wagers money into gambling. This will also put the player away from getting compulsive or toyed around with losses; playing more for the sake of losses. However, it's right that losing makes a player to go for more, yet with the control in place, the player wouldn't do that for a long period.
166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How has big wins and jackpot stories affected your gambling habit? on: May 20, 2024, 03:48:45 PM
we know that apart from the fun that some gamblers enjoy while gambling, the majority of others gamble basically because they want to make money from gambling, and in doing this, I have come to notice that gambling stories play a great role in determining if a gambler will reduce his gambling, go more aggressive in terms of the amount used in gambling or even quite gambling momentarily.

I've read and watched stories of people who hit a big jackpot and from a first-person point of view, the first thing that comes to mind is that " I wish I was the lucky person" and the effect of such an experience has always been to keep trying with the hope that I might get lucky to win my jackpot.

I just want to know, How have jackpot stories affected your gambling routine?

Have you ever increased the amount you normally used in betting just because someone you know won big by betting with a greater amount?


I'd admit that at a time, for the sake of winning big, I was momentarily trying a strategy I had in mind to utilize long ago but hesitated to use it. That is the thoughts of winning big made me not to hesitate in giving the strategy a shot. I think the thoughts of winning big played out to be a catalyst which pushed me to try out the long awaiting strategy. However, it was just on a strategy not on money. Although it'll have to make me wager a bigger amount than usual. Yet, that doesn't mean I'd be going compulsively on achieving the big wins. It's all in me that some day it'll show up, don't know when it'll be.

Contrarily, I've never been in a situation where I wished I won just like the other guy next to me. Because, I know, somehow, the end of the road for the money, myself inclusive. I used to think of being a better person when it comes to handling the money properly, but have been opportune to understand how the jackpot works by learning from others. Then, it came to me that anybody can easily spend out all their winnings in a short period. That didn't or wouldn't stop me from expecting a jackpot, as it's part of the game and fun to hit.

As long as it is kept once a year trip to Vegas with a limitation on the total budget to spend, it should be good. Then there are those who go there and don't come back, which is a horrible thing.

For online gambling, the easy access to the site means more regular attendance from gamblers.

It's all there just to make things easier for the addicted gamblers. Those who don't gamble don't care at all about so many casino websites.

Yes, some players go to Vegas and don't return due to lack of funds. I've read of a man that got to a casino, with his wife just about checking in to the hotel, she received a call from her husband that they'll be going back immediately, he already wagered everything on a slot game. Such experiences also shows how people get carried away during gambling. Gambling is highly addictive, regardless of the settings; online or offline. Online gaming is just an optimized form of gambling that provides the player a casino on his palms, nothing else.

The behaviors and mistakes are similar. It's a modern entertainment I'd admit, because most players also derive fun through online gambling. The wrong aspect of it occurs per player. Generally, to some players, gambling is addictive, and some, it's entertaining. I would add that gambling has its definition embedded on individual players and the definitions are never similar for every gambler. Hence, to me, gambling provides fun and also challenges me to waste time playing games.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? on: May 20, 2024, 02:41:12 PM
It really depends on the type of player. Some people are most prone to getting addicted on games like poker because of the social aspect. Others like the patterns on slots and chase the max win they have seen which is also very addicting.

Some other people think they will get lucky on docr or roulette and spend a lot of money there. I think the most addicting is video slots but nowdays you can find them in both casino that is land based and also online. Frankly the land based casinos also copy many of the games that are successful online and earn large revenues. So I'd say video slots online and also physically are the most addictive.

Contrarily, I don't think offline casino copied games from online casino. The machines you see in offline casinos had always been in video form before the integration of online casinos in the gambling world. However, don't know particularly if they're some new online games which was never in the offline casinos. Slots have multiple providers and hence would have varieties of gaming patterns, but I still consider them slots regardless of the graphics or how they look. Talking about addiction, slot players face a more tempting opportunity of getting addicted. Due to the nature of slot games.

Its fast results, easy to learn, and fast wagering method also helps in sticking players back on the machine for a long time. Thereby, exposing the player to compulsive gambling and then addiction. The other games like poker are mostly addicting in online casinos than the offline settings due to the social advantage as you mentioned. I don't think other gamblers would comfortably watch a fellow player in same table go compulsive without giving out a helping hand. Maybe after the game is over. On the other hand, online players wouldn't get such help due to the solo mode of online gambling. All player to himself, that's risky on the long run and mostly get the players addicted.
169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: May 20, 2024, 02:27:24 PM
Despite the aggressive publicity on gambling around every environment lots of people still don't engage into gambling, due to the type of training given to them by their parent. Unfortunately, some parents tell their kids ill things about gambling which scare them away from the act. It helps but it's not right to tarnish the image of gamblers in your kid's presence. However, parents who gamble around their kids, also, are not getting things right because of the disadvantages this will cause in future on the children. We all need to draft a specific time for gaming especially when the kids are sleeping or away from the house. I don't seem to understand why some players gamble openly.

Does it mean their rooms are not enough for gambling. Kids are mainly trained to spend time in their own room or the sitting room. They rarely stay in their parent's room. It's always okay for a dad or mom to gamble in their private rooms for the safety of the children. While, still, educating them on the needs to stay clear from gambling and how rough it could be for young people. This is necessary because of the society we find ourselves, not all parents care about their kid's wellbeing, if we don't gamble in the presence of our kids, other people could be doing this, and we don't know who they are, if same kids from a home with such parental training spend time with ours. So, preparing the kids to repel on any advice from whosoever, regarding participating in gambling at a tender age, is important.
That's good if kids not involve into gambling because they already gets information from their parents that gambling can gives bad impacts to their lives so they will not gets into gambling. Their parents just shows the bad impact to their kids because they see many kids involve in gambling and makes their lives ruin because of gambling.
They don't wants to see their kids lives ruins too so they always guides their kids in the right track and makes sure that their kids really stay away from gambling. They will not shows to their kids when they playing gambling because they don't wants their kids follows what they do.
Parents can sits together with their kids and talk each other to have a warm relationships and makes they have a closer relationships. But the fact is not many parents can do this because many parents have busy with their works so they don't have much time with their kids.
That can makes their kids feels alone and will gets closer with their friends which can gives a bad impact to them. Parents can't educate their kids with right if their kids is not closer to them and their kids will have a rebellion to their parents and makes things worst.

That's a challenging aspect of such a societal problem. Most families handle two jobs just to meet up with their family financial responsibilities. Parents rarely get involved with their kids due to business and work. However, the workload doesn't occupy the whole day for a gambler. It's all about fatigue and tiring work activities that really separates parents from teaching their kids. Amidst the difficulty some gamblers who make out time still, to play games can funnel the energy towards tutoring their kids. Maybe make out time twice a week to help the kids stay away from wrong influence. Those who then due to whatever reason it is, gamble in the midst of their children are to be cautioned to stop it.

This won't be as a result of being busy in the office or anything else. It's all about negligence and a poor parental training. I do see them as people with symptoms of compulsive gambling. Kids requires consistent training to learn and once they do, It sticks to their brian for a long while. I could, myself, think of some early training received at a tender age, indirectly I was told about the need of saving money as a gambler. Due to a friend who was into a gambling activity that consumes his funds leaving him with no funds. So, instead of telling me not to gamble, my parents used the family friend as an example to teach us the bad impact gambling has on players.
170  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: May 20, 2024, 01:29:25 PM
At least with good or bad experiences from other gamblers, we can learn how we can carry out gambling activities wisely and always be careful. Indeed, not all gamblers will easily continue to immediately take correct and appropriate actions based on what they have seen from the experiences of other gamblers, because basically every thought and understanding within a gambler is not the same and this is determined by each individual. . If the gambler is addicted then this is very difficult to accept and do, but if the gambler is still a regular person then I think there is a possibility that he can apply this to gambling.
Holding on to the experiences from other gamblers is a nice means of learning, not in gambling. As you said, it depends on the individual and how he can adapt to changes through experience. However, things could change along the line and gamblers who are in trouble will learn to seek for help. When a player is in need of our assistance, not financially but emotionally it's our duty to take them to a better place where treatment would commence. I'd prefer running something like a first aid to see if it works.

Taking them on a different trip to a location where they wouldn't engage into gambling for a while. Or advise the person to hang out with old schools friends who could fix him into some other interesting emotional activities. Therapy would be a second choice after this and hopefully it'll work. Gambling is risky indeed, and not all gamblers are aware of the type of risk that's been talk about here. So, educating them on the risky factors like mental disorder, attached to gambling can help scare away the need for the player to go compulsive if he had that in mind.
171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When I'm emotional, I LOSS! on: May 20, 2024, 01:08:24 PM
from the gambling system, there is definitely competition. You definitely know that when you lose, it causes you to suffer a financial loss, which makes it inevitable that from an emotional perspective, you become disappointed and it's hard to get out of your head, but it's a normal thing and the risks of gambling and you have to be prepared mentally, when losing makes it a burden on your mind and you always think about it. when I lose, but now I can control my emotions, I am more stable than before and it is progress for myself, making every time I gamble, the results are not bad thanks to my peace of mind and it is better now.
That's why I'll advise that before any individual goes into gambling they should 1st kill their emotions, before even making a decision on staking any amount of money in gambling you should be aware that the outcome of the event might be good or bad, that's the concept of gambling, you either win or lose, that's why before you stake your money into it you should consider the amount and if it's something you could afford to lose.

 The more reason why most get emotional when they lose their bet is due to the amount they staked imagine an individual betting with about $5k plus and end up losing such individual would feel very bad or even  bad and might even break down especially when they had the mindset of doubling their money through gambling to make more, that's why gamblers should bet with what they can afford to lose.

Gambling consists of processes or stages that a player need to bypass. It's normally usual to see a gambler who gets emotional after losing funds in the game. This has to do with the type of money the gambler wagers. A player who puts in few dollars wouldn't get emotional for losing the money. The only difference between gambling and purchasing items in the market is the physical presence of the purchased items, which can be sold back if the player feels emotionally drowned for purchasing an expensive product. Gambling losses has no other means of getting it back, except for trying again another day or session.

However, the chances of winning again remains slim and the player would have a tough time earning back the funds without losing some of it. Hence, when gambling it's mostly important to check carefully if the amount about to be wagered will affect us emotionally if lost. Same thing happens to the Op, he actually gets happy after winning and worried when he losses. Allowing ourselves to be this type of players is not wrong, as we are humans. But, overdoing it would get a player, probably, into trouble. Because human emotions controls how the person behave. Getting obsessed to get back the lost funds is one idea that could be fueled by feeling emotionally down as a gambler.

You have your answer mate and that is given and that is Online casino because the vote
stands 35-1 and that means there is only one from here that hyper focus in physical casino lol.

but comparing the hours given when in each casino? of course I spend  more in physical casino
you know why? because of free drinks that we shared by friends while losing our money haha.

Lol those compliments from the physical casino indeed seem to be an interesting reason why some gamblers spend time in the casino. Consuming those drinks a lot can get the player drunk and cause him more losses. However, it's just a good thing to go along with friends to the physical casino. It's all fun, but not surprised to see that lots of people chos the online casino over physical ones.

They are multiple reasons to it, one being that this is not the right place to make such comparison. A lot of online casinos exist online and everyone here prefer doing things online. Assuming in a place, where it is made available, a good number of offline gamblers you'd notice a difference in the results. Online casinos also provides easy access to the casino and doesn't require much effort to begin. I mean nobody teaches a new gambler how to wager his money online. It's all simple and the process isn't ambiguous.

(5) DON'T LET GAMBLING INTERFERE WITH YOUR WORK OR WITH YOUR DAILY RESPONSIBILITIES.


a gambler must understand their job and what their responsibilities are. they must be able to prioritize their work and responsibilities above their gambling, because that is what is most important. because when a gambler prioritizes their gambling compared to their work or other responsibilities it will become a problem that can impact the gambler and also those closest to them. many gamblers have experienced dismissal because they gambled inappropriately, and other gamblers should take this as a lesson that they must understand their responsibilities and not need to prioritize gambling.

It's a wrong choice to pick gambling over our working activities. I've faced such challenges in the past, after gambling, during work I get tired. Such things made me to stop gambling much during the weeks, so as to focus on my working ethics. The misconception from many players is that gambling, to them, seem to offer more money than their work. These circulating false thoughts amongst many players have pushed lots of players to lose out focus on their work. Gambling is exhausting, not just on money, but energy.

The strength that would have been used to work efficiently in the working place then diminishes drastically. Thereby affecting the employee's quality of work. It could reduce his credibility in the office. On the other hand, taking loans to gamble is a wild behavior and a gambler shouldn't pick up this means of gambling. As it could lead to a painful life situation. Who will pay off the debt if the gambler doesn't win? His family of course. That's a form of building tiresome troubles for the family. And diminishing their finances in large scale, could cause the people involved, some anxiety. Taking loans to gamble also is addicting. I think it's super good to be contended with what we own as gamblers. No need going over our financial threshold.
174  Other / Off-topic / Re: Know when to stop on: May 20, 2024, 12:13:12 PM
But I don't think that a gambler will want to quit for entirety because no matter what reason we have, we'd still be back and try to chase losses and to win some as well.

That's the fact. There are some gamblers, who no matter how hard they try, get back to chasing losses even after they have already lost more than their budget.
Expecting such gamblers to quit after some time is hard. Quitting gambling at the right time needs strong will and discipline.
A person who follows his rules is the one who can control emotions and make the right decisions whether it be related to gambling or any other thing for that fact.
Gambling should have a stopping time, but quitting is not simple. Every gambler stops at a given time, some would choose to end the game when they are tired or have something else to do. While others wouldn't mind stopping when their bankroll is exhausted. Personally, I prefer to stop when they is need to handle other tasks. Maybe exercise my brain or build a better strategy. Gamblers who are not comfortable with stopping when needful, may get into problem.

It's also an insidious behavior which later on puts the player into a more severe problem. I think gamblers should be cautious of the type of choices they make regarding a stoppage time. Because the behavior develops gradually and then occurs consistently. Just like in chasing losses, the player doesn't get compulsive immediately he starts going after his losses. Sooner the problem begins to escalate in the player's brain causing him more troubles on the long run. Hence, gamblers are advised to stop at the right time, not when they've exhausted their bankroll.
175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Casino Community Service Possible? on: May 19, 2024, 07:41:01 PM
I acknowledge that some casinos are indeed resorting to launching anti-addiction campaigns as a way to deal with problem gambling. The effort involves detailed analysis of addiction-related aspects and establishment of partnerships with clinics for community-based conferences at state levels. It is not a legal requirement for all casinos, but it is an initiative that some are adopting as part of their social responsibility.

Moreover, there are certain casinos that offer donations to the most affected populations by various global issues such as war. This can be seen as part of their community service. Although not all casinos take this path, there are some striving to make a positive contribution back to society. Therefore, I find these actions depict that there are some casinos which do take interest and involvement in the community seriously.

Aside that it'll help the publicity of the casino positively, the impact of helping addicted players in the community is quite broad. Most addicts after getting revived through the help of the casino will still go back to gambling. But, may be, this time, responsibly. A lot of compulsive players also don't get to afford therapy sessions, but with the help of casinos lots of willing addicts will get cured. Allowing them unwatched or uncared for, will bring more trouble to the society or community where they inhabit.

It's also a better moment to correct the perspectives of non addicts to avoid completely compulsive forms of gambling. On the other hand, casinos in multiple numbers could be interested in rendering this help like their competitors, but not all casinos are strongly firm. Some could go bankrupt if they don't carefully make out the best time to render the community service. Running a casino is not simple. So, I don't expect lots of them to join this notion of giving back to the society. Yet, I'm impressed with the ones who have decided to help the addicted gambler in their own little ways. It's most appreciated.
176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Naturally Chase loses in gambling.. on: May 19, 2024, 07:17:08 PM
As you've said, It is a natural act from a gambler and ideally they want to gain back all the money thay they have lose. I mean, who wouldn't want to try to recover from their losses? everyone's already did it especially if they can't accept the fact that they already used up all the funds that they only have. We can say that greed is the major reason why people continue doing gambling because there's an instances that a person already won but because of greed, instead of gaining additional money, they ended up having zero in their pockets, So it is highly advisable to check ourself and learn how to stop when we already won.
In life, they say that there are also bad times apart from the good times. People who have heard and believed on it are the ones who don't try anymore to recover their losses but I think it can also be subjective and there might still be things that are more worth winning and they are more possible or the risks on them are not that big enough. I think a lot of experienced gamblers are also not attempting to recover their losses anymore. Greed might also be different from simply avenging our losses.

There are truly people who are like that. They think they are superior and can't accept any types of defeat. There are also non-addicted gamblers but are only willing to risk it all in order to earn more than just coming home with an already sure small amount of money. There is no need to worry about them.

To my surprise, some gamblers claim to be experts and feel their strategy is the best in beating the house. But they continually loss out a lot of money in gambling. Yet, they persist on trying their strategy. I get disappointed to find gamblers who still think of a strategy that guarantees consistent winning in gambling. Such believes are caused by influences from other gamblers who claim to have won big using a specific strategy. Greed is a factor but deceits from people who sell those strategies can also be another factor which affects the way some players choose to chase losses.

New players also fall victim to such false methods of gambling to generate steady income. Venturing into gambling for the first time with such information as a backup is wrong. And causes more trouble to the player in future. Hence it's quite important that a player focuses on managing his times and restricting his moves from going after their losses. Also accepting that more money can be lost in gambling, will help the player rethink his moves before placing another bet.

That's what you called greed, the person in the post experience the luxurious life of having more money but the thing is he didn't think much and spend a alot in so many things, it can't be helped maybe he is just fullfilling his childhood wants or dream but the thing is the most practical is that the person in the post should have some money for investment or anything that could make his money grow, execpt gambling, see that example because of the taste of winning a lot of money drive him to gamble more in order to win again, little they know is that the more you have the taste of winning in gambling the more you will want to bet more, see rhe example, from a lot of money to none, its because they didn't learn to control themselves and let the greed and desire take over and that is a common mistakes fron those new in gambling.

You are correct in what you just said and that is why we always advice everyone to seek for help or support from an experience counsellor, families or friends to help them or preventing them to fall a victim, because with the help and support will make one not to hastily make decision when they win and wants to have quick money through the means of gambling which is bad and might leads to destruction if their dreams doesn't come to actualization.

It's mostly rare to find a gambler who could control having a jackpot. The player above seem to be possessing such an amount for the first time. So, those things which he ever thought of having, he has to possess them even if he doesn't need it. Looking at the run down of how he spent the money, you'd notice how poorly organized he was with the money. That's not his fault. Hitting a whooping amount of money with no backup income to regulate how the money is being spent will cause excessive expenses.

I would add that some jackpot winners even go as far as resigning their work and focus on spending the money and gambling. Investment thoughts rarely show up, the player expects another big wins in few days. No investment will generate, immediately, such an amount like the jackpot or big wins. People who can control themselves from recklessly spending such an amount already has an experience with handling a big amount of money.

hiding gambling is based on your own understanding within your environment so many people who hide and the Gamble they do that based on did not like people to notice that yes there are a gambler I have not seen anything wrong keeping gambling in secret on your own so I basically known gambling is all about what you planned for and what you want to achieve
Keeping gambling a secret from other people is a very natural thing even though gambling site owners actually really want more people to gamble so that their gambling place can be known by many people. Because sometimes the people we keep secrets from are also gamblers, even though maybe they don't gamble in the same place as we have been doing all this time. But still, if there is someone who doesn't want himself to be known as a gambler, then he starts to create walls between other people about this, even though for me this is a normal thing and doesn't need to be done as long as the environment we live in is still safe enough.

Gamblers who secretly engage into gambling are not making any other mistake than isolating their gambling habit. Which idea, is not good and could affect the player in future. This is necessary, because gambling addiction doesn't give a warning before it affects a player. However, the need to stay hidden when gambling can be to help other non gamblers to stay away from gambling. They are some people who would know about our gambling habit and will join immediately. Hence, it's crucial to play where nobody will see us only when we have such purpose of safeguarding unqualified people like kids from engaging into gambling. It's also good for a player to share his gambling habit with his friends, expecially fellow gamblers. Who can relay any trouble that arises in future to the gambler's family.

Yeah right, responsible promotion helps to avoid getting more people to this alluring offers, though we all knew that promoters are all after with the potential profits that they will gain from the site that they are working, it's more on referrals or an actual offers from the casino to bring more people to use the platform. Discovering about the player's addiction is the most work. As he'd keep it a secret from acquaintances.

We don't have any control on how this streamers will promote the site and most of the time, we also don't have that capabilities to monitor our love ones from time to time.

It's something that we really need to extend our hands if we want to protect those young audience and the people who we care about.
Isn't it harder currently when nobody is easily watched or observed when gambling. It was easier before the institution of the online gambling platforms. Today, most addicts struggle alone due to the  isolated life they lead. Staying all in doors and wagering away money. So, working on the limitations, it has to be physically done not online. Addicted players don't have the luxury of reading articles on ways to avoid compulsive gambling. The streamers are only executing their tasks and expects to earn bigger amount from the casino to easily fund the next video.

Young people only need to obey the rules. Someday they'll hit the appropriate gambling age for their country. Those kids or young people is surrounded by gamblers contents. They'll hardly be a to stop young people from seeing those ads. Thinking of it now. Because of the different algorithms on those medias. A very viral post can be passed across a wide range of people including those who never configured their gadgets to see gambling contents on their timeline.

Every result comes with a risk, so that is not something even in gambling or some aspect of life so you have to risk instruction to see how the result is going to turn out for you. It’s not that easy I believe Risk is much but all I want to do is I will pay the ricks and it will be a calculated risk I want just gamble just for fun or even when I I am sure that I will win, but I still lose. It’s not just the end. I will just try again because there is no easy way out there to make money you have to take the action

Calculated risks is quite beneficial, it inspects the habit of spending in gambling. Reckless gambling I think involves  uncalculated risks. Gambling operates against the player's aim to earn big and makes the process hard for the gamer that he'd find it difficult to take the right risks. Gamblers, expecially beginners, who don't mind the importance of observing all their gambling expenses will lose a lot in the process. Any gambling risk that turns around making more money is a wrong risk that can mess up the finances of the player. When gambling it's always crucial to focus on staying away from such risks.

Some players feel or are confident, or convinces others that their strategy 100% guarantees winning big in gambling. Such things are false and doesn't work. The house is already in charge of the game. Risks of wagering huge amount of money and hoping to win,  is not right. While we wager it's a fine thing to level the results.  Hold a bit of control. No casino is designed to also win 100%. The little chances players get should be used intelligently. An increase in losses should be followed with a brief break. Playing  on such risks unbalanced will affect the
