201  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: May 05, 2024, 06:45:33 AM
Everyone who has developed his own gambling strategies will believed they are the best, i wont doubt about that because that is what we are using on gambling and still fetch us wining sometimes, however, there is more need to be able to develop more on some of this strategies, revise on them and make use of additional ones to help have more better gambling experience, which is one of the best reason why we need to developed gambling strategy, so that we can enjoy gambling each time we are doing it.

No gambling strategy can give you 100% winning ratio. This in most cases will just help to secure more winning. The funniest thing about this strategy is that what works for me may not work for you. Having one own strategy and working with it is the best when it comes to gambling.
because we have our own behavior and attitude towards gambling and our activities so one that applicable to others may not be applicable for us and besides  everything depends on luck that will be on our side so  all in all? we have no rights to claim anything in gambling not unless it already happened.

I agree with you and honestly I don't really believe in strategies in gambling (outside of sports betting), for example you play the same game at the same time with a strategy that someone else has that makes them win or sit together and play the same type of game and also with the same strategy, if for example from both bets between you and the person next to you actually produces a win then yes I will believe that gambling can be won using strategy but if for example one of the two people loses? I'm sure that means it's luck and the strategy is useless, which is where one of the two people lost even though they both played the same type of game, at the same time and also with the same strategy. In the end, it is clear that there is no need to be too complicated in thinking about how you can win, it is very simple that if you are lucky then you will definitely win, but the problem is not that the name of luck cannot be controlled and will not always come according to your wishes? this is the reason why gambling cannot be used as a place to make a living.
202  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: May 05, 2024, 06:15:12 AM
Gambling so much is not a strategy to win instead it will lead to so many loses that can cause one to be emotional which can lead to doing something crazy.
That's right and I agree with this, gambling is not just playing strategy. because there is also a luck factor there, and it will not be the same for everyone. It could be that people who bet $50 can double their money quickly, there are also those who bet $50 and at that moment they lose.

In gambling, winning and losing are certain, so keep having fun with gambling games whatever the outcome. and to minimize large losses, gamble wisely.

In fact, in my opinion luck is much more important than strategy, strategy is only a complement while luck is the main key to confirming victory, achieving luck is very difficult because indeed everyone will never know when they can be lucky in any case but the fact is that there are always some gamblers who waste their luck by instead continuing the session because they are unable to ignore the greed that is in them, in the end instead of getting a bigger amount but in the end they lose all the money they managed to get at the beginning.

Luck varies and everyone has different luck, especially when it comes to winning in gambling, so if you have managed to win $100 for example then you should not think of copying someone else's winning amount of $1000 because as I said above that everyone has different luck, which is a lot of evidence that we can see that someone who is greedy and wants to get a much bigger win like everyone else then in the end they lose everything, and this is the reason why everyone's luck is different. Another thing is that yes I agree with you that gambling is always about winning and losing, you can win a large amount but you can also lose an even larger amount, hence this is the reason not to put excessive expectations on winning because it will create a lot of excessive actions while winning always depends on luck.
203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you care about what people say about you gambling? on: May 05, 2024, 05:50:53 AM
I personally don't give a fvck about other people's opinion not unless it is a constructive criticism. It is actually none of their business and people always have something to say whether you do good or bad and that is natural for me so it doesn't matter. I am not that addicted to gambling before though I know I have mistakes but I never really heard someone had told me some thing about my gambling thing but instead I do constructive criticism to others especially if they are my close friend, relatives or even a family member since it's natural for us to be concerned about them doing something that is not right in gambling specially when I feel they are way too greedy or irresponsible.

Yes as long as you're not harming them or as long as you're not gambling with their money then obviously there's no point in paying attention to criticism from people like that, but yes like you said unless the criticism is constructive and leads you to better things, like for example they advise you to take a lot of precautions and gamble with only the money you can afford to lose then obviously it's not a criticism but a helpful suggestion that leads to precautions.

Actually, no matter what your situation is, whether you are addicted or not I think filtering out some of the criticism that other people throw at you is a necessary action, because for example out of 10 people who comment there are probably 5 - 9 people who give positive comments that advise you to for example be more careful or suggest other things that are useful for safety while you are involved in gambling.
204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cash out or let it ride? on: May 05, 2024, 05:21:32 AM


Good decision that you cash out since Milwaukee Bucks got massacre by Pacers on that specific match to end the series. It’s surprising that you choose to cashout considering how risk taker you are based on your previous bets.

I believe everyone will agree that Cashout is indeed the right choice since you already have huge profit guaranteed using your bets while the risk involved on pursuing your parlay is very high since Bucks is incomplete.

Indeed cashing out would be the best decision any gambler would ever make in such scenario. The profit are high enough to cash out and be greatfull for so definitely only a greedy gambler would insist on leaving the remaining game to get full payout meanwhile that could be the odd selection amongst all games. Op I'm glad you cashed out from the game because that's shows you are a responsible gambler. The fact that the bet ticket got this far without having any loss doesn't mean it can still survive the upcoming games.

If you work then you have to spend a lot of time and sweat to be able to get that amount of money, then the question is why not be grateful for the amount and choose to cash out? I'm sure that this is a situation where someone is being dominated by greed, but think that if you don't secure the amount then you cannot be said to be safe and still have the possibility of losing all the amount without a remainder.

This is the importance of a gambler to have a healthy mindset and a rational point of view in every response to everything where I am sure that by thinking rationally in terms of considering then they will prefer to cash out rather than chasing something bigger but without being based on any certainty and guarantee.             
205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: May 05, 2024, 04:28:44 AM
the thing that makes some people to gamble is what we call a sustainable empowerment so most especially student do take the list to gamble in order to sustain them in university so gambling is not bad and why some people who think that the gambling is bad is because they have no any challenge that is facing them but when they have a challenge that is facing them they will not be able to be gambling is bad to embrace but I did not say that when you have not understand the procedures

They sees gambling as been bad because it's of two sides. Either for you to be more rich or you become poor. And in most cases the first one happens. If you aren't careful, you may spend all your life savings in gambling. Gambling involves great disciple on one self.

Yes and I agree with that because after all the name of gambling will always be about two things that are between winning or losing, as you said which is where a gambler can become richer in a short time but can also become a street beggar in the sense of losing everything they have in a short time.

Let's think with common sense and a rational point of view that gambling winnings in gambling has absolutely no consistent element and also has absolutely no guarantee and certainty at the beginning of the session to know whether you will win or lose at the end of the session, And with this it is clear that no matter how much you win, it is likely that in the end you will run out of all the money because of the losses that can never be tolerated but there is actually another way to really be able to keep the big winnings that you managed to get which is to quit as soon as possible from gambling completely and save the big winnings as your provision for life, but obviously most gamblers cannot make decisions like this and instead what happens is that they are even crazier in terms of treating their gambling activities and this is the reason why gambling has a bad viewpoint in most societies.
206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler avoiding friends after a big win. on: May 05, 2024, 04:07:55 AM
I think this really happens in friendships especially when they are gamblers who when they manage to get a big win in one of their sessions it is not uncommon or maybe even common that they will avoid their closest friends especially those who are also gamblers, and the reason is that they don't want their friends to ask for a share of the winnings so they hide information about their success and pretend not to have money.

This scenario also happened in my circle of friends where at first I did not know why one of my friends suddenly avoided me and after that I heard from one of my other friends who told me that the friend who avoided me had just won a big win in the type of slot game and this happened several times which made me really did not expect that he would act like that even though I had no intention at all to ask for a share of his winnings.
In fact, even the smallest win is worth celebrating with friends, but perhaps that only applies to gamblers who are only after pleasure, not the profits they get from gambling. I think it's true, that not all friends will ask for money or a share of their friend's winnings, so basically avoidance is more precisely called reluctant to share. Meanwhile, in a more intimate circle of friends actually avoiding when getting benefits is rare, because they often get reciprocity from others.

On the other hand, there are many cases where someone is reluctant to share, and that is not wrong, but it is also appropriate that he is not invited when we celebrate a victory with other friends. Personally, try as much as possible to not borrow money from friends who are lucky in their gambling, because it can ruin their winning momentum. Someone definitely has a tendency to share without us needing to ask, at least to treat us to delicious food.

Yes, it's true, it's more likely to say that celebrating winnings with friends would only be done by gamblers who don't really expect to win in their gambling or those who come with a priority for fun or entertainment so when winning is not a priority then when they are lucky and manage to get a win then it's reasonable to assume that they wouldn't mind celebrating their winnings with their friends. In fact, I've honestly had an experience where I was sitting at a table with someone else and when he won he treated me to some food and drinks, even though I didn't know him at all but he invited me.

On the other hand, I believe and I have proven that kindness is always rewarded with kindness, I experienced that when I did not have any money at all but one of my friends suddenly sent money to me by saying "taste some of my fortune" which scenario made me not hesitate to share some of it back with him when I managed to get a win and this reciprocal scenario applies in any case including gambling.

On the other hand yes it is true that it is not wrong if someone does not want to share the proceeds of his winnings because after all it is his right, but maybe there are some people or gamblers who sympathize with other fellow gamblers and I think this depends on the personality that the person has but obviously sharing can increase the relationship in friendship, and other things yes as you said and it is true that if for example they want to share it then they themselves will definitely offer without the need to be asked.
207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Streamers using demo account on: May 04, 2024, 10:45:29 PM

Yes basically we do not have strong evidence to make assumptions about the stremers who broadcast lies to really be believed, but I think we can here prove it ourselves with the experiences we have experienced while we are involved in gambling which in my opinion and maybe also according to most people involved in gambling where getting a win especially in large quantities is very difficult, especially in a row but as we see that the stremers do it very easily and casually they managed to win a very large amount and this really looks tempting. While as long as I gamble honestly I have never had such easy wins, although I understand that luck can lead us to such results but still the process will not be as easy as the stremers do.

So I'm pretty sure that the stremers are screening using demo accounts that have been set up by the casino behind the scenes which makes everything easy to win, as you said and I agree with it that everything can happen on the internet and in the end it's clear that we really have to take care of ourselves carefully so that we don't easily get trapped and fall into the trap.
We are really just that good on there on which making up some assumptions but there's no way that you could really be able to make yourself that be able to prove out that they are making use demo accounts.
If ever we do tell that they are fakes then there are videos that they are really that buying up some bonus spins on which we know that this isnt something that could be possible when dealing up with a demo account on which  you could really be able to say or tell that it was real and something that using up that real balance. Unless if the said stream doesnt show or start up with having that big balance and making up some direct play without doing any buy ups then you could really be able to say that it was really just that demo. Just like on what most people been assuming that they are indeed making use of demo then it could be true or not
but if you are really that believing then you could really just that simply stop and avoid them at all cost.

It seems like you are saying about a type of game that is purely about luck, where perhaps I would assume that your statement could refer to a type of game such as slots where we can buy bonus spins in all the types of games provided and this is interesting. What we have to remember and realize is that all the games provided by casinos are games created and regulated by the casino itself, they are free to make everything easy or very difficult as in terms of winning, and with this I will assume that the casino can also regulate the system in the bonus purchase feature.

At first glance, it looks like it's impossible, which means you might think that the spin bonus purchase can never be changed, but I think nothing is impossible because the casino is in control of all the rules and systems for how a game is provided, which means it remains the same. It is very possible that it seems like the casino has set up all the systems in a game promoted by the streamers (including the bonus purchase feature), because otherwise it would not be that easy for the streamers to make all the decisions into a winning streak.
208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: May 04, 2024, 06:20:12 PM

Of course, there is absolutely no way to save money when someone has entered or fallen into addiction, because no matter how much they have money, the first thing they think about is gambling, or that means there is no planning in terms of using the money other than gambling and gambling.

As we know that the name addiction means having excessive behavior towards something where they already have a very high interest in it, such as gambling and this habit can really cause a lot of problems in their lives, one of which is experiencing difficulties in meeting their daily needs or even experiencing family breakdown when they really cannot control or limit their gambling activities which can cause problems in the family economy. The point is that when someone is trapped or falls into an addiction to gambling then obviously it is a situation where they will experience many problems, especially in terms of finance and this is why we are always advised to always put a lot of restrictions on gambling, especially limiting expectations of winning.
gambling is an addiction that consumes people. People become so addicted to gambling that if they gamble once and win money, they become more true to gambling the second time. A family where a member of the family is addicted to gambling knows firsthand how much trouble an addict faces in his family. Gambling is an addiction that destroys people's future in a blink of an eye. Many people may win money once or twice if their luck is good. Their lives will not last forever. Second time they become addicted to gambling. So avoid such gambling as much as possible. gambling when someone is addicted it is very difficult to come out no matter how hard his family tries to get him out he doesn't want to come out so I have to have confidence in myself that I will come out of gambling.

Yes, money is always something that everyone wants and needs and the object of winning in gambling is money and this is something that is always pursued by most gamblers, especially if at the beginning of their involvement they managed to win, which is the situation that brings them beginners are in the wrong mindset in terms of how gambling really is, which ultimately makes them move and progress on the wrong path. In fact, winning in gambling always deceives gamblers, especially those who do not have a correct understanding of gambling, which in the end, some of them think that gambling is a place that can provide income.

Overall, gambling is indeed an activity that tends to have more negative things, especially in terms of bad impacts, and this is why most people's viewpoints are very negative towards this activity, and also on the other hand, the impact of gambling is not only destroying finances and family affairs. but it can also make them end up stressed or depressed when they are unable to withstand all the pressure from various problems that arise, therefore it is clear that you have to think repeatedly and consider various angles when you want to get involved in gambling, simply if for example you are not ready to lose anything then it is clearly better to avoid gambling.
209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: May 04, 2024, 06:01:11 PM
....

 Why many individuals get addicted is because they fail to know when to pause, some might think when they take a break they'll miss an opportunity of winning a game but they should remember that there's also a possibility of losing as well since there's no 100% assurance in winning, gambling addiction could lead to a mental disorder therefore one of the best remedies is taking a break when you notice you're becoming addicted.

....

this is a mistake many gamblers think because they have the mindset that the more often they gamble, the more they will be able to find patterns and get closer to winning. even though on the contrary, this will bring them closer to addiction and losing more money, since gambling has a greater chance of losing than winning. so gamblers need to arrange when they can take a break and rest from their gambling, because good gamblers are those who know when to take a break and when to gamble.

True I agree with that, and it is a very wrong mindset that will ultimately only lead them to a much worse situation, the question is doesn't winning always depend on luck? of course, and I think we should all know and understand how luck works, which is always impossible to know because luck always comes suddenly and without warning and also luck doesn't always come in succession. while the possibility of defeat will continue to lurk you at any time, this means that the idea of gambling every day is not to get you closer to winning but to make you experience a greater amount of loss.

Honestly, I don't understand the mindset of gamblers who think like that, it really doesn't make sense to say or assume that gambling every day can increase your chances of winning, and I think if this idea could really work then it would be clear that there would be many people gamblers who managed to achieve wealth just by gambling, but the fact is? yups, clearly what happens is the opposite, where the more often you gamble, the more losses you will experience, which in addition, as you said, the percentage of losses in gambling is much greater than the percentage of wins because this is a business for casinos.
210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Use your winning responsibly on: May 04, 2024, 05:32:36 PM

I am not fully agree with you, keeping yourself under control is important when it comes to gambling. those who can control themselves put their money on gambling sites but stay within a limit without panicking and using it. But I have seen many cases of people who can't control themselves and become addicted to gambling, who sometimes even sell their houses to gamble. so while gambling always make sure that you are enjoying gambling but not addicted to gambling.

Self control play a vital role when it comes to gambling and all that , those who lacks normally endup making rash decision that may initiate more losses or affect them in a negative way . Like for instance someone going all in at once due to the fact that he has made countless losses, so he or she want to get back those losses , going all in with his hard earn funds his a sign of no self control. While an individual whom has made some losses during his gambling section may decide to give it a break so that he won't endup making things worse , shows that the individual have good self control.

That's right, because only with self-control can we at least avoid the much worse consequences of gambling, everyone can be involved in gambling but it is a fact that not everyone can control their gambling activities and in fact most of them are controlled by gambling and not those who control the activity while gambling always has risks that can never be completely avoided so it is natural to experience losses that are sometimes very large.

I would say that someone who cannot apply any precautions in their involvement in gambling is those who completely come with the intention to make a profit so of course they always do some actions that tend to be excessive, such as betting all in where the goal can be different - different, such as to get a big win or to return something that has been lost previously, and actually the impact of gambling will always depend on how you treat the activity.
211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does the game of luck in gambling really works? on: May 04, 2024, 04:46:26 AM

Maybe it is a positive mind sort of but it is not just certain to say if you have a positive mind then you can attract luck to your side, otherwise everyone would like to be in that positive mindset before gambling because it would be a criteria for luck to come to you. Luck just happens most times, not because we are with our friends or loved one, it could be because we are just favoured to be lucky at that point.

What I believe is that you must be ready for luck to come to you. Being ready is also to try something before you can talk of being lucky. No risk no gain, if you decide not to play and to be there in your comfort zone and be scared of losing your money then luck won't have a chance to locate you.
Losing money in gambling is normal but to be lucky you have to be in control losing control is the end of everything. Although luck is an important factor in casino gambling especially when playing slots and related games other factors can affect the outcome of the game. Players can increase their chances of winning by developing their skills understanding the rules and managing their bankroll efficiently. Also if you sit down to bet and bet hoping you get lucky chances are you will lose far more than you will win.

Yes it is true that losing is a common thing that happens in gambling wherever you gamble and in any type of gambling, but if we talk about the type of slot gambling then I don't think there are any skills that will be useful to increase the chances of winning, you have said that luck is very important in this type of game and that's it, I would say that skills would be useful if we were talking about the type of sports betting which has a track record that we can analyze, but the type of slot game has no such thing, this type of game is completely random and can never know about the results at the end of the session.

But I will also say that luck is still an important factor in all types of gambling and if we are talking about slot games then this is a type of game that depends entirely on luck and there are no skills that can be used to increase the chances of winning except skills that lead to precautions such as risk management, some limits and financial management.

213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you cashout or wait for the game to conclude? on: May 04, 2024, 03:32:13 AM
That is equivalent around 143 Million rupiah and with that amount of money you can buy piece of land or brand new car so if the question Would you cashout or wait for the game to conclude? Im 100% going to cashout tho if you still want to play the game you can cashout 85% and go with the game with 25% if you can earn that amount of money Im sure you can do it again hahahhah. Dont let the greed consume you right now

Yups it looks like we are in the same place with that amount, and if I were in that position then yes obviously like you said there is no other decision I would make other than 100% cashing it in and going to the building store to buy things to renovate my house or buy something useful like a vehicle or something else. In my country that's a lot of money and I would say that he was really lucky to get that big win, although yes there are much bigger wins if you continue but of course we have to remember that gambling is gambling after all, meaning that the possibility of losing will always be a possibility, Therefore, it is clear that there is no other wiser decision than to cash out as soon as possible, because we must think that if we continue the game then we might lose all the money that we could have won, and yes of course something based on greed will usually produce disappointment or regret more often.
214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't make your bets when you're tired on: May 03, 2024, 06:36:35 PM


Relatively right, if you are not feeling okay then it affects your brain not to function well, the focus is being divided and for sure your decision making will suffer, it's best not to proceed when you have that kind of situation, it's better to take a rest and forget about pushing yourself as instead of taking some relaxation while betting it might cause you problem after making mistake with your chosen picks.

It's your position to take and better to choose what is best for both your finances and health, there's always the best time for your gambling so you can take both the enjoyment and possible earnings if you are good in the kind of gambling that you are involve.

Instead of pushing forward the good practice is to take your rest and chill out doing other things or take that rest in form of sleeping all day..

If a person is suffering in other mental health and emotional problems, it should be treated or assess it first before doing something because it may affect your decisions and actions, it is also possible that it will lead you being in a not so good situation. You should go somewhere and relax your mind. It's not easy to forget what you're suffering right now but breathing and meditating can help you to ease your problem and it will gives you a healthy way of thinking as well.

Right, the best thing is like you said which is to deal with the problem that is being experienced and if the problem is that you are experiencing pain then obviously it is better to focus first on your mind and yourself for recovery, or when you are in a tired situation where obviously there is no other better and wiser way than to rest to calm down and loosen all the nerves in the body so that our health can be maintained, and yes of course as you said that however the situation and condition of ourselves will greatly affect our thinking which in the end our minds will even produce something that should not be used as an idea in terms of decision making.

So of course it is best to prioritize something that should be prioritized, after all I think you can still gamble whenever the point is when you are in good health, and if you are tired then it is better to rest first and when you have finished resting and are in a good situation and condition then you can gamble and I think all these actions will only be able to be done by gamblers who view gambling in moderation, because honestly I think it is quite difficult to do so if they have entered the addiction phase.
215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: May 03, 2024, 06:16:27 PM
In life, their is always a starting point to everything including gambling, so i can tell you to the fact that so many of us gamblers have our own side of our stories how our gambling life style all started, to me gambling is not a bad thing if you can gamble only what you can afford to lose, because by doing so it wouldn't get to your head, once gambling start getting into your head and you start seeing it as a means of income, that is path to addiction.
There are many people who can earn profit from various gambling games but they are never greedy.  If greed is at work in gambling, no matter how much you win, you will think that if you continue to gamble, you will probably win more and continue to gamble to lose all the money.  However, gambling can be a very good experience for some and a very bad experience for others.  But one thing everyone should always keep in mind is that he will not have a bad experience in gambling only when he bets the amount he can afford to lose.

Exactly, it means that everyone can get a big win when they have very good luck but in the end it won't mean anything if you can't ignore the greed in you, because after all as you said above that in the end all the winning amount will be lost very quickly when someone applies greed, On the other hand I understand that greed won't always lead you to a disappointing end result but overall it's usually the case that most gamblers experience losing all the amount they've won before because after all it's gambling so the percentage of losses is usually higher than wins. However, greed is not a good thing in any case, especially when it comes to gambling where winning only depends on luck. Therefore, this is the reason why we are always advised to take prudent actions such as cashing out when you get your first win rather than chasing something bigger but there is no certainty that can guarantee victory.
216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 03, 2024, 05:48:16 PM

Every parents want the best for their children and hiding to play games shows that there is something wrong with what you are doing, I could remember some families while growing up where the first son will have to steal some local currencies from the mothers bag just to go and play WHOT with his friend and still he will come back dry or either beaten up by his senior gambling colleague. So when I see some people hide to play gamble , and when I remember what some people said that gambling is for fun . I will be confused because you cannot be having fun and you are hiding so there are so many things behind their actions which they do not want to unveil .

You are right and most of the time that kind of curiosity push you to seek for more information, what more if you are just a kid and you see that someone who are enjoying with something but they are trying to hide it? I guess it confused in many ways, but there are always a reason behind on why a person will hide this kind of activities, and the common on is they don't want to argue or to take care of someone's opinions about their gambling participations.

It's a self- decision which will not uncover to whatever extent, they want to hide it becuase there's reason that they wanted to keep
and it's their rights to observe whatever they think that will be good for them.

I think there are quite a lot of factors as to why they hide the activity from the public eye especially from their children, the first is probably because gambling has a very negative viewpoint in the area so they hide their involvement in order to avoid some negative criticism, the second is they know that it is a negative or dangerous activity that should be avoided which makes them hide their involvement from young children because they know that gambling can destroy a child's life in the future.

Of course everyone has their own reasons as to why they hide things from others, and if we are talking about gambling then yes one of the most common reasons I think is what I have said above, because if for example you are involved in one of the things that are natural and reasonable then there is no way someone will hide it, meaning there is always a certain reason.

Go home whenever you're loosing in gambling after several attempts to make win, you don't have to force it coming when the luck is not there for the day, if we did not make it that same day doesn't mean that we cannot have more opportunities on other coming days ahead, we should know that gambling is not only a win for win game, we have to win and lose combination to add up to the fun to always have to discuss about it.
That's right, never force yourself to return the money you have lost from gambling by doubling your bet.
When you lose, it's better to be aware and admit that you have lost, then fix everything by working.

There are still many gamblers who use their basic money to gamble. that's a very bad thing. A gambler should have their own money to play with and even a small portion of their income, so that when they lose they will not make decisions that tend to make them worse off.

This is the importance of having responsibility as a gambler, all gamblers have the chance of winning and also have the possibility of losing and after all that is what gambling is always about two things namely the chance of winning or the possibility of losing which one of the two things will always be the answer at the end of the gambling session that you have done, meaning that gambling is not only about the chance of winning but the possibility of losing can never be separated, after all this is the system that exists in gambling which is always about winning and losing.

So maybe I would say that you are a loser if you only want to win but are not ready to accept the risk of losing, after all chasing losses will always be a bad idea which actually in the end will only harm yourself because there is absolutely no guarantee of any success when you chase losses in gambling and in some cases the opposite happens, instead of successfully reaching the recovery phase but what happens is that the amount you lose is even greater. Another thing is that I agree with you that try to always gamble with a budget that is not used for other needs in your life, prioritize the needs of your life that are more important than just gambling, and if for example you have some money that is not used then yes it doesn't matter if you want to allocate it to gambling.

How true is this rumor? This is very popular on our local streamer comment section that streamers is just using a demo account with enhance winning rate on all slot games to showcase huge win while they are playing.

I knew that only slot game provider has the power to change the RTP of the slot games but some of the comment is from other streamers that has same experience on using demo account.



I understand what you are talking about. Personally, I have not caught the hand of any of the streamers and I have no proof that they are doing this. But I am initially distrustful of such things. Of course, they can use a demo account to show what is actually not there and to achieve their own interests. He can use a demo account, and the person looking at this will use his real money.
Everything that happens on the Internet, especially related to gambling or cryptocurrency or various types of earnings, should be treated with caution.

Yes basically we do not have strong evidence to make assumptions about the stremers who broadcast lies to really be believed, but I think we can here prove it ourselves with the experiences we have experienced while we are involved in gambling which in my opinion and maybe also according to most people involved in gambling where getting a win especially in large quantities is very difficult, especially in a row but as we see that the stremers do it very easily and casually they managed to win a very large amount and this really looks tempting. While as long as I gamble honestly I have never had such easy wins, although I understand that luck can lead us to such results but still the process will not be as easy as the stremers do.

So I'm pretty sure that the stremers are screening using demo accounts that have been set up by the casino behind the scenes which makes everything easy to win, as you said and I agree with it that everything can happen on the internet and in the end it's clear that we really have to take care of ourselves carefully so that we don't easily get trapped and fall into the trap.

If you're a gambling addicted user then it will be hard for you to make a savings from the ways you have been gambling because things will always be more attractive to you in gambling like to always have a continued process in gambling not minding on how it has cost you or the implication on the damage it could cause after which you're left with nothing more after gambling.

Of course, there is absolutely no way to save money when someone has entered or fallen into addiction, because no matter how much they have money, the first thing they think about is gambling, or that means there is no planning in terms of using the money other than gambling and gambling.

As we know that the name addiction means having excessive behavior towards something where they already have a very high interest in it, such as gambling and this habit can really cause a lot of problems in their lives, one of which is experiencing difficulties in meeting their daily needs or even experiencing family breakdown when they really cannot control or limit their gambling activities which can cause problems in the family economy. The point is that when someone is trapped or falls into an addiction to gambling then obviously it is a situation where they will experience many problems, especially in terms of finance and this is why we are always advised to always put a lot of restrictions on gambling, especially limiting expectations of winning.

Gambling everyday only means two things, it's either you consider gambling as a source of livelihood or you're walking your way to addiction ( that's if you're not already an addict).
Either ways, both are still at your own detriment and at your own very expense, because considering gambling as a source of livelihood would even make you more committed because you want to make money out of it, and this often leads to getting your emotions stuck in the game, and we all know that when you gamble with your emotions, you could end up making some uncalculated and illogical decisions that could eventually cost you a lot.

And when you're on your way to addiction, it won't be the fun or the thrill that'll make you gamble everyday, but the irresistible urge to gamble, and this urge only leads to addiction and its better to avoid falling imto addiction at all, than sort for means to break out of it.

      -     Gambling every day is only good if you always win at the casino, but if you don't but instead you always lose then it is not a good habit or vice. Because it is possible that eventually it will end up in a task that the end result will not be good.

This kind of addiction is actually a serious addiction and it is difficult to get rid of it. Instead of looking for a good life, what is happening is that everyone relies on luck to earn money through gambling, which is very dangerous.

Yes but gambling is not about winning because however the possibility of defeat or loss will always be a part that can never be separated in gambling, meaning that no matter how the chances of winning will always be followed by the possibility of losing and that is natural because the name of gambling is always about two possibilities at the end of the session, namely between winning or losing,  And in addition there is absolutely no guarantee or certainty for all gamblers to be able to produce a win at the end of the session unless they have completed the session while on the other hand the possibility of defeat will continue to lurk, so that is the reason why you are prohibited from treating gambling excessively such as planning to gamble every day because in the end it is clear that what happens instead you will feel a lot of disappointment and regret.

The other thing is actually whatever type of addiction is still something that tends to always be excessive and something that is done in excess is always not good, especially if we talk about gambling where victory only depends on luck while the possibility of defeat can never be avoided completely and of course making gambling a place to earn is really dangerous.
