Overall, mistakes are useful lessons. Embracing and learning from them helps us evolve. Indeed, ruminating on past mistakes hinders progress. Instead, knowing what caused these failures helps us make better decisions.

When gambling, this mindset is especially important. Each loss has been sobering but informative. I learnt to like gambling and establish limits. Being in the moment, experiencing the thrill, and understanding when to back off. It maximises delight and minimises losses.

Sharing my experiences helps turn past mistakes into collective wisdom. Why our mistakes can help others, especially in gambling, is fascinating. Acknowledging this can make gambling healthier and more fun. The game is about learning and having fun, not losing.
Experiencing mistakes is a lesson for us so that we can change our lives and correct those mistakes, and it can mean that we are getting something that can help us develop even better. Reflecting on past mistakes is okay, but we shouldn't get caught up in those mistakes so that we can't get up again. However, we must be able to recover from that mistake to fix it.

Regarding gambling, when we experience a mistake, we must be able to learn where the error lies and try to correct it so that we will not experience the same mistake again. This is important to mature our thinking so we can use gambling properly. We have to learn to control ourselves and understand how to use gambling well so that we don't make mistake after mistake.

Yes, we often share our experiences, whether good or bad, so that people can learn from our experiences and they don't have to experience what we experienced. However, we must be able to gain something from other people's experiences or our own so that we can be better at using gambling as entertainment.

I never buy my friend's bet, even if he offers it to me, especially if he places a bet on a team I don't know. That will give me the risk of losing even though there is a possibility that I can win. And @OP is the lucky person who can win it to get a lot of money. @OP dares to take the highest risk, but this really triggers adrenaline because he could lose and lose his money. But fortunately, he was able to win the bet so he could share the money evenly with his friends. Besides, I also wouldn't want to take a big risk like that, and it would be better for me to place a bet on my gambling account and not place a bet with big money because it's safer for me.

From what you said, you shouldn't be confused because you should already know the answer. When we gamble, we must understand that there are risks that we will accept where we can experience losses and wins. But we will encounter the risk of losing more often, and it depends on how much you bet because the bigger you bet or the more money you have, the greater the potential risk. All gamblers, whether they are rich gamblers or gamblers who are not yet rich, must be able to gamble safely by always paying attention to their limits so that they can reduce the risk of losing. Although gamblers who are not yet rich can turn losses into wins, this cannot guarantee that they will always win, and the same goes for rich gamblers. What is important is how every gambler can understand the risks so that he does not gamble excessively, making him lose a lot of money.

mistakes are valuable lessons that don't need to be regretted or even blamed yourself, it's not necessary.
with mistakes we have a very good experience to become a better self and if there is a gambler who hates himself because of a previous mistake which made him lose all his money I think it is not necessary and instead it should be used for learning and take something positive not to repeat it in the future.
every gambler here, I'm sure they all had bad experiences in the past, making them feel very guilty for making that mistake, but I'm sure that after making a mistake in gambling, they become very careful when betting and always remember their mistakes in the past so they don't repeat it again.
but if some of them still repeat the same mistakes, I'm sure they are not ordinary gamblers but excessive gamblers or gambling addicts who ignore everything related to the risks they will get.

there is no point in regretting the mistakes we made because we gambled because of our own choice and when something happens we should be able to accept the risk.
We should be able to learn from our mistakes so we don't repeat the same mistakes. But if we make different mistakes, there is still no need to regret it because everyone who can learn from their mistakes will develop into a better person. We don't need to blame ourselves for the mistakes we make because it might not allow us to get up to correct those mistakes. We must try to get up and correct the mistakes and try to understand where the mistakes lie so that we can avoid them. That is a good lesson for us, especially if we can learn from those mistakes so that we can share our experiences with other people so that they don't make the same mistakes as us. And even though the mistake is due to losing money from gambling, we will see that we can reduce the loss without making it even bigger. We can limit the use of larger amounts of money so that the losses will not become larger. Many gamblers have made mistakes, but only a few are willing to learn from their mistakes, so only a few can use gambling better.

So there is no point in regretting mistakes because mistakes help us recover from those mistakes to be better in the future. And with these mistakes, we can learn to accept the risks of gambling because when gambling, losing money is a normal thing.
205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling sites and current transactions fee on: February 07, 2024, 09:35:28 PM
That's what I'm doing now looking for a casino site that uses stablecoins such as USDT or USDC using the BNB BSC or Polygon network which has relatively cheap transaction fees so I don't have to wait too long for my transaction to be confirmed by the bitcoin network, if I'm not mistaken it was several months ago I never use bitcoin for gambling anymore, because I prefer to use stablecoin for now, because I don't really like wasting money on large transaction fees rather than using money for transaction fees, say around $20, I'd rather use it for gambling.  Grin
The most of the casino site uses the stable coin for the mode of the transaction,So it help you to make use of the holding crypto currency for the gambling game,we no need to buy the senate coin for the transaction of the gambling site.The transaction fee for the USDT with the Binance smart chain network was low compared to bitcoin.
And it has become an option for many gamblers when transaction fees on the Bitcoin network rise. Yes, I also felt the increase in transaction fees and moved to use a stablecoin that uses the Binance network. That saves transaction costs, so we can send the money to the casino site we want.

When the transaction costs of bitcoin can decrease drastically, gamblers can choose to continue using stablecoins or bitcoin. Of course, gamblers will choose which coins make them comfortable when gambling. We prefer to move to other coins when bitcoin transaction costs rise high. But it's better when bitcoin transaction costs rise high, we can take a break from gambling first to avoid losing money and also the problem of gambling addiction.
206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: February 07, 2024, 04:52:53 PM
Gambling is gambling and it doesn't have to be up to a single percent or more than before we can know that it's gambling and the risk involved there as well, the challenge is for us not to only gamble when we think we are not in good disposition for taking the risk involved because as far as what we are doing is gambling, we are taking a long it's risk together in it to gamble with, and what we must do is to ensure going for what we can afford to bear, the minimum risk is to avoid taking the risk at all, but doing little is also the same as getting involved in every chances of risk involved in gambling.
As long as we can accept the risks, we can gamble with the money we can afford. And we have to reduce the risk so we don't experience too many losses. Each gambler must determine what percentage of risk he can afford so that he does not need to use a lot of money, which could lead to many losses. By understanding the risks he can get, he will always be careful in using his money to gamble because he will try to prevent losing a lot. After all, it is not worth accepting. And even though we can reduce the level of risk, we still have the opportunity to win because the opportunity to win will still be there no matter how big the risk is. So we don't need to think about how much money we can use to reduce the number of losses.
207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: February 07, 2024, 04:31:46 PM
As the gambling industry is evolving, I think innovations would have kicked in that can make someone create a career from gambling. I do not know how this can be achieved but I feel it is possible.

Making gambling a full time job might be seen as risky but I still feel one can make gambling full time job and a career.

What do you all think?
This is not gonna work so easily but tend to work for people that are lucky,cause eventually when their predictions hit their targets, they end up winning the game .
But in the other way round very difficult,for people who end up loosing each time you play.

Moreso you can't make Gambling your full time job, because like most jobs,u find your t.fare down there to begin the work for the day,fo what's needful and come back home .that's a normal routine job.but for gambling you find your way there,stake game,make predictions with money ,even yo a point of using investment properties to keep it going does it look like a career job? Nah..it can't be cause it will just make you worthless.
If the intention is to build a career through gambling, it will be difficult because people will experience more and more losses in pursuing a successful career from gambling. But if they can win from gambling, maybe they can be successful, but we also have to know that winning is difficult because we will only experience loss more often. Even though they are lucky people, it does not guarantee that they will always be lucky when they gamble, so they will lose again.

And if they also want to make gambling a full-time job, they need to be able to think about how much money they have to work with. Perhaps that will only make them suffer more losses. People should rethink their desire to build a successful career in gambling because it will never be easy to get there.
208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: February 07, 2024, 04:11:42 PM
It's hard to believe, but that's what happens to my gambling, where sometimes the number of wins I get in gambling makes me more confident to continue betting and believe that I will get bigger profits than before. At that time I forgot, that most of the winnings that gamblers get from the bets they place, to a large extent are influenced by the luck factor. Meanwhile, when gambling, it is impossible for us to get lucky every time we place a bet.

And this carelessness actually made me lose, by losing the results of a number of wins I had previously made, and making another deposit to empty my wallet. and if I don't immediately realize this, maybe this will continue to happen to my gambling activities.
This is normal because it often happens to many gamblers, including me. If I have a win, big or small, I feel my self-confidence will rise, which often tempts me to continue betting. I sometimes forget that it is time to stop, but because greed keeps coming and telling me to continue betting, I follow it, but the result is that I lose. Maybe that's what many gamblers feel, where they feel too self-confident and greedy, so they can't control themselves and instead continue gambling.

What we did was careless, but we must try to learn from experience and not do it again, even though there is still a possibility that we will do it again. That is normal because we humans can easily be tempted by greed. By continuing to learn to restrain ourselves, I think we can anticipate feelings of self-confidence and greed so that they don't bother us when we want to stop gambling so that we can stop our gambling activities easily.
209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: February 07, 2024, 03:45:13 PM
Yeah, you're right.

At the end of the day you have to be smart about your life.

If you are at work, simply work and don't do anything else, gambling or social media while working could potentially backfire at you, so why bother.

It's the safest approach to simply work at your work hours.

It’s surely the safest approach. Why do anything else during work hours than the actual work assignments and for which you’re being paid.
Social media would only distract you from whatever tasks you’ve got and you’ll end up burning more time than initially intended. Gambling in my opinion, is much worse at after placing bets and maybe losing out on the bets placed, it could emotionally affect the person which could in turn affect the work performance of the person.
I doubt anyone would still feel motivated at work after losing some good money while gambling at work.
When we are at work, we are required to work well with good performance, which requires focus from us so we can complete the work given to us. If we use even a small part of our working time to do other things, such as social media or even gambling, we cannot appreciate our work, which has given us money. Meanwhile, out there, there are still many people who are scrambling to get jobs that can make money, but instead, we waste this opportunity by using our work time to do things that are outside our work. And it is true that if someone has experienced defeat in gambling, he can lose motivation to work, which can cause his work performance to decrease. In the end, it will only make him unable to complete his work well.
210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Older men vs Younger boys in gambling, Which enjoys Gambling for fun the more? on: February 07, 2024, 03:20:27 PM
For me, older men tend to enjoy gambling more because. First, I think that they are financially stable, and for sure, they also have their savings with them. So whenever they lose, it is okay for them; they won't be frustrated when they lose. They can bet freely because they have the money with them. Also, I think the experience that they gained when they were younger affects them today. They are more mature and disciplined when they bet. They are not chasing money anymore; they just bet for fun.

In the case of the younger bettors, I think they can still bet for fun, but I do think it really depends on their money or financial capability. But most of the younger bettors tend to bet or gamble because they are building for the future. So it is really hard to gamble for fun. Especially if they always lose. So they need to take a break for some time and calculate the risk when they bet.
If older men have good self-control, they will be able to enjoy gambling as a place to have fun and not have the desire to try to win. Especially if they already have a lot of experience in gambling, they know the limits, so they will not exceed those limits. They know how to have fun by gambling, so they also won't use a lot of money because that could trigger them to lose self-control. They can also be disciplined with the time and money they spend gambling so that they don't chase after winning, and when it's time to stop, they can stop themselves.

Meanwhile, younger people who still have emotional outbursts when they experience defeat will be provoked to continue gambling because they cannot yet limit themselves to gambling properly. These are the ones who will use more and more money until the money runs out, and they don't realize that they have made a fatal mistake. But they must remember that young people will have financial difficulties because their finances are still limited. If they instead choose to make money from gambling, they will only be disappointed because they will experience more losses than wins.
211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I could have won bigger. on: February 07, 2024, 03:02:21 PM
A player is always faced with the problem of when is the best time to stop. It always seems that just a little more - and the jackpot will be obtained. And there is always dissatisfaction with the winnings and the thought that you can win even more. The hardest part is learning to be content with what you already have
Yes, this behavior can be called greedy behavior, so many gamblers get trapped and experience big losses because they feel no satisfaction from their winnings, so gamblers who always feel satisfied with their winnings and limit their winnings will be safe from gambling addiction, especially if they know when they having to stop gambling would be even better, basically an intelligent person must know when it is time to gamble and when to stop gambling.

If you can master this, of course you can avoid gambling addiction because the scary thing about gambling is that gambling addiction is very difficult to cure and always has a negative impact on users. Someone who has won should know what to do and stop playing then withdraw all the money but for greedy gamblers they will never be satisfied and end up continuing the game when they win thinking that they will win big again after the previous win, but in fact it is clear that it is nil and those who experience a major defeat then make another deposit and continue gambling again until they lose their money Lots.  Grin
It is normal for a gambler not to be satisfied with the winnings he has achieved and still want to win even bigger. He will have the desire to pursue bigger wins by continuing to gamble. Unfortunately, it is not in line with their wishes, and this is where gamblers should understand that if they decide to gamble longer, they will experience losses that may be bigger than they imagined. Their greed traps them because they cannot tell themselves to stop gambling, so they continue gambling because they want an even bigger win. If they want to check the large winnings, they will see that other gamblers cannot easily obtain the winnings.

Those who cannot stop themselves from continuing to gamble will slowly become addicted, and that is not good for them because they will only experience greater risks than if they could stop their gambling activities. Those who have won should be able to stop gambling first to reduce tension after getting the win because they will become more excited and may forget what they have won. They should be able to be satisfied with what they get, so stopping gambling would be a good idea for them. Moreover, they can gamble again at another time after they have lowered their emotions and tension so that when they gamble next time, they will gamble without any burden.
212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit. on: February 07, 2024, 02:41:24 PM
Yeah that emotion also happens to me sometimes and basically, these feelings sum up when I win big after doing all in a gamble. So when I do all in and turns out it win I just want to do all in again and win again but sometimes you can face it big lose after win big and not withdrawing the money.

So to defeat the emotion after win Big I just withdraw the money. 
Not only occasionally, but these emotions will appear more often along with the results you get from gambling so that you may become even more eager to get a bigger win if you win. These emotions will also appear when you lose because you want to recover your losses so that you will continue your gambling activities. Many people will decide to bet all in, saying this is the last time I am going home. But because they have become emotional, they cannot think clearly and try to follow their emotions, so they decide to place an all-in bet. But the result is predictable. They experience loss and lose all their money in an instant, so they have to go home feeling very disappointed and frustrated.
213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Alter Ego In Gambling on: February 07, 2024, 02:26:59 PM
When you talk about being rich and saving money, there is nothing wrong with that. Just because someone is rich, it doesn't mean they shouldn't save money and spend a lot of money on their gambling activities because you might not stay rich forever, dynamics in life take no time to change.
Some people run out of options when it comes to spending their money just like what Andrew Tate said when you reach high and buy yourself a yacht, that's the end game and you don't have anything to buy anymore since there is nothing to buy literally. that's why we see lots of them in the Casino, not to make themselves richer but they find it to be the best place to spend their money and to show off and those are the ones who love to waste their wealth, unlike others who choose to build a foundation and used his money to help others instead and when helping others, you will find peace when you see the smile on their faces.
Yes, those who spend a lot of money when they gamble want to show off to people who gamble that they are very rich people who can afford to gamble with a lot of money. They can also accept their defeat well because they have a lot of money, so they will not feel like they have lost a lot of money due to their defeat. But we also don't know how much their total wealth is so that they can spend so much money on gambling, so we might just be amazed to see the amount of money they use for gambling. But some rich people won't use much money when they gamble because they don't want to see huge losses they can't afford. And that is in line with what they do in the real world, which always emphasizes living frugally.

Question: would she be so disheartened and mad as this if the son had won the bet on a multi million price?
Dear fellows, let's assume you are the mom, what would be your state of mind on this context?
My response as a parent is that I am very angry and very disappointed with children who steal their parents' money just to gamble, even if my child wins a big bet I will not care about his winnings. Because in my opinion something like this is a very bad action for their future lives. If we let this happen to our children, in the future they will definitely continue to do it, so we as parents must be really firm in giving warnings and lessons for their behavior. That way, incidents like this will not happen again to our children in the future.
As parents, we will be disappointed to know that children steal their parents' money. We should educate them well and not to steal or do other bad things. That's why we really have to educate children well and instill the understanding that stealing or taking something that doesn't belong to them is wrong. We can also punish children so they are deterred and won't do it again, but don't let it hurt them physically. But we have to be careful in punishing them because the punishment is only so that they know it was wrong and will not do it again. It is indeed difficult to educate children, but we must continue to try to make them able to differentiate between right and wrong, especially if the stolen money is used for gambling. That was a mistake.
215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investment in gambling on: February 07, 2024, 01:47:09 PM
~snip~
Of course, because the real meaning of investment is buying number of assets or shares and saving them for the long term to let the assets or shares work by themselves to have higher value, this is way to generate profits and is often called letting money work to produce money.
But in gambling, some people consider investment in different way, there are those who consider gambling to be good investment because they are risking money, there are also those who consider investing by giving money to other people to bet and can get share of the winnings.
Assumptions and points of view regarding investment in gambling have many things that cover them and these differences depend on the mindset and point of view of each gambler, but I think they have the wrong point of view about investing in gambling.

I have also stated several times that gambling is very different from investing because gambling is full of risk and uncertainty, after all in gambling the risk that occurs is losing all the money as whole.
This is clearly different from investment performance in general, investing is making profits with guaranteed security of assets for security rather than risking money and losing it all.
Some gamblers who have different and wrong views on investing in gambling must be able to change it. Investing in gambling can truly be said to be the perfect investment if you invest money in gambling site with an agreed profit sharing.
That's how investment works, so it's different from gambling, and people who gamble are not investing but are gambling where they will experience losses more often than they win. In investing, people can get benefits if they choose their investment program or choose to invest in bitcoin so that they can get big profits from holding bitcoin for a certain time. But in gambling, once they lose, they have lost their money, and it is difficult to get the money back even if they deposit another amount of money. They may be able to invest in the casino by staking certain coins and getting a return. It is an investment because the funds they use to invest are not lost but instead are staked in the casino. And they can get profits after the investment time is over.

I used to invest in casinos using bitcoin and other coins, and that gave me additional returns because, at that time, I used quite a large amount, so my returns were also large. At that time, the price had not risen much, but after I sent it to my wallet and kept it for a while, there was a very high increase in the coins, so when I sold them, I managed to get a big profit. But if there are people who still say gambling is an investment, that's up to them because we can't change what they believe. But they should also be able to find out the truth because, after all, gambling is not an investment. And if there are still casinos that allow them to invest in their casino, they could use it to increase the number of coins.

That is due to their previous winnings making them too proud to try another game and it turns out they are not lucky at that time. However, during that time, they can't easily stop as they have a goal of paying their debts. They will continue their game and end up losing all the money they have. That's why many people who gamble feel lucky when they win some money. They often fail to realize that their luck may not continue in the next round, and they should stop gambling immediately. If they continue gambling, they may end up losing all their money and being unable to pay their debts. This always happens if they keep gambling after winning, only to experience a big loss that costs them all their winnings. Such a situation is likely to leave them feeling frustrated and regretful because they had the opportunity to stop gambling but didn't take it. Sadly, once they lose all their money, they won't be able to continue gambling, even if they wish to do so. It's crucial to understand that previous winnings shouldn't make one overconfident to try another game, as it may turn out that luck is not on their side this time. Therefore, gambling to pay off debts is not advisable.it is not advisable to gamble to pay your debt.
Yes, that's right, because as they win, it makes them forget to stop their gambling activities, so they intend to get even bigger wins. But apparently, it's not what they imagined, so they slowly experience loss, which, if they don't realize it, will only waste their money, even all their money, including the winnings they got. They will no longer be able to enjoy the winnings because it has all been used for gambling and has even been lost in gambling. When they can win from gambling, they should be able to stop gambling and leave gambling while taking the winnings with them. But because greed got the best of them, they lost all their money and could not pay their debts. They will be chased by people who lent them money because they don't pay their debts, so they have to work very hard to have money to pay their debts. But if they still intend to pay their debts through gambling, they will experience difficulties because gambling is not for making money and is just for fun. They will only become frustrated because they cannot win, so they will return to gambling to be able to win the gambling game. But they will still find it difficult to win big because gambling will not allow them to make money easily.

That's a very good argument.

Anyone selling you data or any kind of signal or whatever, clearly is not making money from their thing.

Otherwise they would just keep quiet and continue making money with it.
And if we obey their wishes, we will be the ones who suffer losses because we cannot win the game. We can no longer analyze and only rely on these "experts" to be able to place bets. Meanwhile, we also don't know whether they are truly "experts" in analyzing or just bragging about their abilities, which may not be very good compared to our abilities. They will continue to make money from the people they have successfully deceived, so they will never stop looking for their targets because they believe that they can get new targets. They believed there would be more people they could deceive with their abilities.
218  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making too many picks reduces chances of winning. on: February 06, 2024, 09:33:53 PM

On the other hand, it is also true as you say that we cannot continue to depend on other people's predictions by just hoping "hopefully this time you win" without knowing what underlies your victory, and by having our own understanding and skills, it will make it easier for us to make decisions that we think  are really right, because the fact is that usually there will always be differences in choosing something, or I mean that everyone has their own beliefs and beliefs in choosing and that means that not necessarily the underlying things that are made a reference by people who provide or share predictions will match our opinions and beliefs..

So I think for this problem back again to each person, if indeed they do not mind to start learning from a beginner until they can have a pretty good understanding and skills like the professionals have by passing a long time then go ahead. So go ahead, because all your decisions are in your own hands and you will also feel the benefits when one day you manage to prove that the results of your learning are not in vain by being able to produce more wins..
That is why we must be able to have analytical skills so that we will not depend on other people and can directly analyze the match. When we can improve our ability to analyze matches, we will have more choices for placing bets because we already have better analytical skills. And even though we can still look for predictions from other people, this is all to support the analysis techniques we use to know the basis for other people's predictions. Besides that, we also have sources of information that we can use to add the data we need. We can continue to learn more because analytical skills will never stop and will continue to develop according to the circumstances that occur.

If people want to learn to analyze, they will have good skills in analyzing matches, and they can immediately place bets without waiting for predictions from other people. But people who are still waiting for predictions from other people will continue to do so without wanting to learn to analyze. They will never be able to analyze the match forever because it will waste their time, even though that is not the case. Studying analysis now and continuing to hone it will allow this ability to develop well, which will benefit us in the future because we will have much better analytical skills.

~snip~
The challenge in gambling is not about having the ability to analyze or having no difficulty placing multiple bets or not placing a bet because we do not feel confident in our predictions but the question is after analyzing, reading articles and sports news and avoiding games we are not sure of, are we going to win? most of the time we still do not win. It is not a matter of preparing yourself for loss because we will always lose. Of course, you can have a winning streak but one big loss can throw you off balance. In my thinking, it is not about winning a bet and thinking you got the strategy it is about profiting in the long run.

I have gambled for so many years and I will say spending time reading the history of teams and checking H2H record and positions in the league, doesn`t guarantee winning it just wastes your time and in the end, you will be tricked by your mind that you were so close to winning and the next day you continue analyzing and wasting your time for something that will be determined by luck. Most people who won big didn`t devote time to analyzing and checking so many details. Luck fell for them and they won. There is nothing I haven`t tried yet I cannot be regarded as a successful gambler. I have subjected myself even to rollover for one month with a 1.20 odds. I still couldn`t hit the target.
People can place multiple bets if they want, but they have to be able to know what the risks are because it can cost them money in one go. But if they can place bets according to the amount of money they can afford, they can accept whatever happens, and if they lose, they can accept it well and will not try to recover their losses. If they are not confident to place a double bet, they do not need to try it because it is the gambler's choice and they do not need to follow what others do. They just need to place a bet according to what they can afford and leave it until the match ends. Or they can cash out their bets if they can see a temporary win from their bets.

The important thing is that we know how to analyze, and how we analyse will differ from other people, so there is no specific standard for analyzing a match. Moreover, we have different sources of information from other people, which will also determine whether we win or lose. By trying to analyze the match and continuing to hone this ability, we can improve our analytical skills so that we can have better analytical skills in the future. We also don't need to set targets too high if we are still learning to analyze and get just enough wins because later if our analytical skills are even better, we can get big wins.

If you bet without thinking about winning or losing, you don't need to analyze any team and just blindly putting your bet which not make sense at all. There are many gamblers talk about speculations and analysis, they're looking to win, but not necessary it must win.

There's a difference between gambling as best as possible and gambling only to make money.
Placing a bet without thinking about winning or losing still requires analyzing the match to determine the choice. Even though we don't think about the results, we still have to analyze because this will help us improve our analytical skills. And with improved analytical skills, the chances of winning will be greater even though we still depend on luck. And when we can win, we will be happy, and if we lose, we will not think about the loss because we placed a bet with the money we can afford.

Many gamblers want to win, so they will use many ways to win, including waiting for predictions from other people instead of analyzing them themselves. They think waiting for predictions from other people can shorten the time so they don't have to analyze like others. However, they will be unable to improve their analytical skills and will continue waiting for other people's predictions. Even though other people's predictions do not guarantee you can win.

That's how it should be, gambling for fun and considering that gambling is just a form of entertainment. However, sometimes with the time we spend gambling, this view can change a little, namely when we get a number of wins that are quite large, which we have never had before. Where sometimes this win can change our paradigm towards gambling and can change our behavior in gambling. As we see that gambling is the easiest place to multiply money and make a profit, so in the end we gamble more than the reasonable limits that we have previously determined. Therefore, it is quite important for us to be able to control ourselves and our emotions well, so that this can make it easier for us to control the gambling activities we carry out. Another important thing is for us not to be too enthusiastic when winning gambling in large amounts. Big, we have to be able to act normally and if possible, when we win, immediately decide to withdraw from gambling to just rest and calm our emotions.
Yes, gambling is just for fun, and you don't need to bet big money to have fun. We can only enjoy gambling as entertainment, so we don't need to try too hard to win. Just let other people who still want to try hard because maybe they have other calculations than us. By being able to use gambling as entertainment, we will not think about gambling beyond the limits because that will only make us experience more losses. We must really be able to control ourselves when gambling so that we don't spend all the money we have. And gambling is not a place to make money, but gambling is just a place to have fun, so we should not forget that and not be too serious about gambling. If we are too serious, we will not be able to enjoy the atmosphere of gambling and also not be able to enjoy the free time we have. For this reason, we must also be able to have self-control and other important things when playing gambling so that we will not encounter problems when playing gambling. When we can win some money, we should not chase other wins because that can cause us to lose self-control and result in losing a lot of money.

Isn't it true that the many problems that have occurred are proof that almost the majority of gamblers forget or are negligent about the increased risks involved, they will pursue what they have targeted without any more careful consideration.
Indeed, the impact is an increase in the number of bets and money that must be lost and in the end borrowing money becomes the last option for them to achieve the results they have targeted.
This is mistake in the mindset of every gambler and this is also what causes many cases where gamblers always experience difficult problems, whether it is addiction problems, losing money completely and also the problem of piling up debts.
When everything happens, gambler will have new problem, namely psychological problem because they cannot accept and resolve what they are experiencing.

After all, if they just aim to have fun then they won't do stupid things that harm themselves and I sure they will still be in safe condition.
But unfortunately what actually happens is not what we think, most gamblers are too careless and more often make mistakes that cause serious problems.
They cannot set limits and also have the right goals when gambling and this is reality that happens very often, I not surprised, especially since it is always a gambler who experiences problems at any time.
Yes, gamblers who experience many problems forget about the increasing risks they face when gambling. They are too fascinated by gambling and thirsty for victory that they forget about self-control and other important things that they need while they are gambling. And for those who borrow money to gamble, it will only make the problem bigger because they won't be able to pay back the borrowed money shortly, and they will only be chased by the person who gave the loan. They don't realize that borrowing money to use for gambling is not a good idea because when they lose, they will have difficulty paying back their debt. They also don't have any money anymore, so they really have to find a way to pay off their debt. And if they still try to seek debt from other people, it will only make the problem even bigger, which is a fatal mistake.

Those who gamble for fun will not want to do such reckless things because they will think about how to pay back their debts. Those who want to have fun gambling will prefer to use enough money to gamble, and when they have had enough of gambling, they will immediately stop gambling and leave the casino. They don't want to continue gambling because that means they have to deposit more money, which will only increase their losses even more. They can still be wise in gambling and always try to follow their limits because they have seen what happens to people who gamble excessively, so they don't want that to happen to them too. When playing gambling, they are always careful in using their money because that means they always try to prevent their losses from getting bigger.
