2221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How discipline are you in managing your bankroll? on: November 16, 2023, 09:50:11 AM
If what you are after in gambling is big wins and profits, then what you will find in the gambling you do is only regret, even if you win. You regret it because you think why I didn't increase the previous bet amount, if the previous bet amount was increased, maybe I would get a bigger win. Likewise, when you lose, perhaps the feeling of regret will be deeper.

So that we always have pleasure in every gambling activity we do, never have more expectations about gambling and assume that this gambling will give us profits. And keep playing appropriately and betting with an amount that we can afford to lose.

That's right, that's why the sense of satisfaction they feel is not resolved even when they win but there are complaints that you say "why don't I increase the amount of the bet".  This seems to be felt by all gamblers who play. With everything they feel there will definitely be a sense of dissatisfaction whether victory or defeat. And this makes them more courageous to continue the game by increasing the amount of the bet, because they hope that there can be another victory like they got before. But it will not be as easy as turning the palm of the hand to get the next victory, because in my opinion, if you have won it seems to be more difficult to get the next victory. By doing it like that, maybe they can also limit their gambling activities by adjusting the value of the bet so that there is no carelessness that will harm them, but most likely what they will get is a defeat that will make them upset because they are still not satisfied with the victory they get so that in the end they get defeat.

In terms of opinions everything have thier own explanations, it's true that somewhere along the way there's similarities and there are differences, it's beyond that gamblers personal experienced or basing from someone that they've known who expereinced it, you don't need to worry about it that much all you need to focus is to work on your own, if what possible preventions that you can have to avoid having that same bad expreriened especially those who got addicted and do things beyond their limitations.
Only we can prevent bad experiences like those experienced by other people because we must be able to protect ourselves when gambling and have limits in gambling so that we will not experience such big losses. We don't have to experience the bad experiences that other gamblers have experienced, especially if we can learn from their experiences so that it will be useful for us in preventing and avoiding these bad experiences. Moreover, we have been gambling for a long time and have certainly had many bad experiences so we can learn from those experiences. However, we must prevent ourselves from becoming addicted to gambling because it can make us forget what we have to do and just want to gamble which will harm us.
It is true that only we ourselves can prevent and also avoid every bad fate that could happen and we can use other people bad experiences as lessons so that we don't experience the same thing.
If you think about it more deeply, seeing other people bad experiences is very useful and makes us feel afraid so that we are always careful before deciding anything when gambling.
It just that we always underestimate all these bad experiences and sometimes we forget about bad luck or we become lulled because we feel happy or really pursue what was our goal in getting into gambling.

Even though there is no way to avoid gambling addiction, at least if we have lot of experience and always make bad experiences for learning, we will have wiser and more responsible thinking.

Yes that's right, just seeing other people's bad experiences can also be used as lessons, and after learning these lessons we must prevent them from happening to us. Because basically everyone does not want to experience bad experiences but it can be ascertained that everyone will or has experienced something like that. The rest depends on us to make lessons.

That's good, it's supposed to consider everything before taking the next action because what determines it is also yourself other people just comment, don't make people's comments the main reference, but just make it as input and advice and also have to reconsider. It has become a common fact that many gamblers do, and indeed this is difficult to avoid. So it's only natural that many gamblers lose the game. Because by not learning the bad experiences of others or their personal.
2223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: November 16, 2023, 06:24:43 AM
The chances of being able to stop gambling can indeed be said to be very slim, especially if they are already heavily addicted, of course it will be difficult to get rid of the addiction that has been attached and ingrained. Not to mention those who cannot accept advice from other people, friends or family, they can even rebel when advised because their brains have been quasi by gambling so they cannot accept when advised, the main key is in themselves. if they are sure and consistent to stop gambling maybe they can do it, but on the contrary, if they do it without really doing it, it will only be a waste of time.
It's true what you said. People who are already heavily addicted will do anything when they have run out of capital to gamble, even if it is at great risk to them, as you said committing crimes such as stealing or others which essentially with great risk, of course this is clearly endangering themselves. and in the end they will be confused themselves.
stopping a gambling addiction is indeed a difficult thing when an addict still has a budget for gambling and if it is possible that he runs out of budget he still has a way to continue to indulge in the desire to gamble and what I know is that a gambling addict will be able to stop if God reminds him.
I mean a compulsive gambler who finds it difficult to accept advice from other people, they will only become aware and have the desire to stop gambling when they no longer have anything, even they have lost their house, etc. as if they have become addicted and at that time the addict will feel sorry for their actions and want to recover from their addiction.

but all of that still depends on one own commitment because there are many people who have lost whatever they had by gambling and trying to steal, being caught by the police and in prison. after leaving prison, they are still gambling, which means that commitment is very important.

Even when they have run out of money they can take out loans or worse, they can commit crimes that harm them and can even harm them. It is true that you said they will realize after losing money and all their valuable assets such as houses or whatever they have, it is difficult for them to accept advice from others who try to help them get rid of the addiction. But it's a fact and most of them are like that.

And I think those who have tried to quit will also be easily tempted again if they don't have a strong stance and commitment like you said, Even they can undo their intention to stop gambling because they see their friends who get big wins that all gamblers want, So does commitment play an important role in this? or is there something else?
I think there are many other important things and everyone also seems to know the important things related to quitting gambling.
2224  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed or risk on: November 16, 2023, 05:56:54 AM
Sometimes you need to take risks to get something bigger, I see something in the picture is more about taking risks. Someone who always believes in his decisions will always be confident in the results obtained, he hasn't thought the way you think, there will be the right time to cash in and enjoy the results at stake. What is seen in the picture gives rise to different speculations, but the final decision depends on the owner of the money. His decisions are very correct based on his ability to predict, he will feel like the luckiest person because the risks taken are in line with expectations.
I strongly believe that without risk there is also no reward to anything both in gambling or investment, risk are the main basics thing to be considered, so risky is the most important but when it comes to greed in terms of gamble then a gambler shouldn't let it over come the risk, the reasons are because if the greed is more in gambling all the mindset if the gambler will only be to hit big win that's all and still the gambler might still end up losing all if only he or she managed to win big money, so when it comes to the risk aspect, the gambler already have in mind that he might not win but just hoping for luck that's all.

Investment, business, business, or others certainly have their own risks, especially with gambling that many people are interested in today, so many people play gambling with the desire to win big. And as you said, the greed that exists in them will make everything chaotic so that a lot of money is lost due to gambling and unconsciously the gamblers can spend a lot of money just for gambling which will certainly gradually damage their mentality and mindset so that there is the potential to cause harmful effects from gambling if they do it excessively.

In contrast to people who can control themselves when playing gambling, and limit the game, for example, when they get a win, they will immediately withdraw or cash out the winnings they get and not continue playing because they already know what will happen in the end. At times like that they can realize, but if greed controls them when they get a win, of course it will be a different story, you can be sure they will lose and feel frustrated because of the defeat that has made their winnings disappear. Many people are not prepared for the risks they should face, causing periodic addiction.
2225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 15, 2023, 07:44:36 PM
Well, even now it's still too early to decide on the championship but for the mid-season and the end of the season too I don't think there will be much change here as the only possible additions are Dortmund and Leipzig which every year they are always in the Champions League zone and join the competition.
Last season there were a few other clubs that could have been in the mix but for now dark horse clubs like Freiburg and Union are still underperforming so maybe they will be excluded now.
For VFB they had a great start to the season and we saw that they improved a lot this season but in the last few games we saw how they started to have problems so I would also rule them out.
It definitely too early to decide the champion, so many things have changed in this season just as if they substituted each other, take a look at union Berlin that finished last season in fourth position are now in last position when match is still in 11 game while VfB Stuttgart that were battling not to relegate are now sitting comfortably in third point living behind second runner-up of last season with two points interval and Leipzig in the fourth position have one point in between, VfB Stuttgart performance this season show how serious the want to make it to champion league next season.

Football is just so unpredictable these days; most low-level teams are now performing really well and beating those considered to be of greater quality than them. The Bundesliga has always been a thrilling competition to watch, despite the fact that the league title has always been shared by Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, with Bayern Munich winning the majority of the time since the league's inception. However, due to how competitive the league is, the teams that hold the second to fourth positions are always rotating. I believe this season we will see new clubs that will make it to the top four and qualify for the champions league next season. If most of the smaller teams showing expertise in their games are consistent till next year, they will find themselves in the next season’s champions league.

Something that cannot be predicted accurately, although there may be some indications that make some fans believe that in the future one of their favorite clubs will be able to perform better but it can always not be made fully confident, because of course the change of a team is always not fully predictable, we can see how Union Berlin is now, they are at the bottom of the table, it is very bad, even though last season they were able to impress in the competition in the top five area of the standings. Teams that were originally strong can turn out to be very weak and teams that were originally mediocre can become tough competitors in the race like Leverkusen and VfB, but yes, naturally it is a change from every team, but on the other hand I don't see that with Bayern Munich, and that's why Bayern Munich can always dominate the title at the end of the season, none other than because they are very strong in terms of performance and have very good consistency every season.

Yes this season looks more interesting than last season, there are many surprises from some newcomer teams to make the competition at the top of the table more interesting, it's good because of course I also want to see other teams involved in the end-of-season trophy hunt, not just Bayern Munich and Dortmund.
2226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard about financing a gambler? on: November 15, 2023, 06:54:56 PM
Honestly it is very difficult to recover or even just to return the initial capital that has been lost, so with that I think my statement is quite reasonable and financing gamblers is not recommended because of the above. And also yes that's good, it's better to put that money towards your other life interests rather than funding gamblers whose end results are completely unpredictable, that's all buddy.
Yes I agree with this because of all the people talking in this thread may also think it's not a problem to support someone who is a professional gambler or great in their field to earn money, but I think it also has the same risks no different from us betting with our money ourselves, that's why it is very risky to finance anyone we trust to use our money and bet.

I would rather use my money to bet with myself or use it for my living needs. Even though I lose in gambling, it doesn't mean I have to take another step by paying other gamblers just to recover the money I have lost, because I know that gambling is full of risks so I lose. is a normal thing and I have to accept it gracefully, at least I have enjoyed the game. So there's no point in entrusting our money to other people.

Honestly, I never thought of giving my personal money to them to gamble with the agreement that if they win, we will share a few percent. It never crossed my mind to fund those gamblers, no matter if they are experienced or not, and also I will not accept if they provide some evidence that they have managed to get a big win in the past. Let's discuss this logically and use our common sense. Are you sure you're going to give them money for something so random? What if you lose, will they reimburse you? Even if they say they will reimburse you, it's honestly not a good way to make money. We have common sense and I think only stupid people would agree to such a deal.

Yes that's right, you can be an example to others, it's better to gamble with your own hands than to finance others, the fact is that no one can increase the chances of successive luck, it is always unexpected and unpredictable. And or you'd better not touch gambling at all, it's better to keep your finances safe. It's better for the money to disappear through your hands if you really want to gamble than to give it to someone else, the casino doesn't care about that at all.
2227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A tip for staying resposible while gambling. on: November 15, 2023, 06:22:09 PM
it's not easy to be a gambler who is responsible because they have to fight themselves. even tips like this are actually not helpful if it is not based on the discipline of the gambler itself. it was formed from a young age, if a person is used to discipline and understand his responsibilities, it certainly will not be difficult for him to be a responsible gambler. but if he is not used to discipline and tends to not be able to control his behavior, it will be difficult for him to be a gambler who is responsible.

This tip might be effective to some gambler because everybody don't act the same way. For me a picture of my immediate family members at the front of my screen will be more effective than sticking money on the system. Seeing my dependants will always remind me that I have bills to pay which will help me to control my gambling behavior. Some persons might react differently to this my strategy, the picture might be a motivation for them to gamble more because they will think that gambling more will give them the chances to win and take good care of the family.

Yes and one of the things that makes the tips useless is that they don't bring any discipline to their gambling and also like you said everyone has different ways and brings different feelings to their gambling. I guess that could be the reason why some of the effective tips seem useless. You have a good way of putting your family and responsibilities in front of the screen, which can indirectly make you think twice about putting money into gambling.

The way you use it is quite good, but what we have to know is that not everyone can do the same thing, what you think is effective enough to prevent yourself from gambling but it is not necessarily useful for other people who have different personalities, and also yes it is not uncommon for them to think wrongly, as you said that there are also some gamblers who are actually motivated by their dependents' situation which makes them end up even more crazy in gambling because they always think that it will give them a win to help make ends meet, but the actual fact is not at all.
2228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How discipline are you in managing your bankroll? on: November 15, 2023, 05:46:44 PM
Could you please share some of your honest experiences here and how you became a disciplined gambler, particularly in managing your bankroll?
Discipline in gambling is something that I have been able to maintain over the years, Once I remember the responsibilities I have to keep and bills to sort out with money, it becomes easier to manage my bankroll and reduce the number of times I gamble as well as my spending on other things. Gambling should be for fun and not to put your finances in jeopardy, if you start finding it difficult to manage your bankroll, you can take a break from gambling and try out other fun activities.

Yes, it may be easy for you to do, but we have to see in general that there are many people who have difficulty in managing their finances, especially when they are involved in gambling. Although what you are doing is very appropriate and it seems like there is no problem at all in doing it, but not everyone can do it even though we have suggested it as hard as possible. The problem is in the mindset, if only they had the mindset like you who gamble just for fun then they would not be likely to have difficulty in terms of management, that's one of them.

Basically, limiting or reducing is what every gambler is better off doing in terms of budgeting for gambling, lucky enough for people who don't have high  hopes and aren't really interested in gambling, because then they will have a good balance in their finances. Yes that's right, the fact is that there  are still a lot of other things that are quite fun and not risky, but whatever everyone has the freedom to choose whatever they want even without careful consideration, it's really out of our control.
2229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For Newbies Interested in Gambling on: November 15, 2023, 05:26:55 PM
For any newbie who has an interest in gambling, firstly don't make gambling a business or your priority, don't see it as a money-making activity, and don't give it all your precious attention because it isn't worth it, you can be ruined if care is taking, make sure you use your savings for gambling because the possibility of losing such fund is on the high side.
Gambling is addictive in nature, it can make you do anything to satisfy your urge for it, thats if you don't control yourself, if you must indulge in such activity, you must set a daily budget for it, make sure you don't exceed the limit per day, there is nothing like responsible gambling, all I know is that gambling is gambling.

Your advice is very good, friend, but whether beginners will be able to do what you say, the answer is only a small part, because most people who have entered the world of gambling will unknowingly experience a loss of control, who knows when that will happen.
It is true that gambling is addictive, if someone is not strong enough to resist the temptation that exists in gambling then he will easily become addicted and tempted by what he sees there, even if it is not immediately stopped or reduced, he will be addicted. and become addicted to gambling, and that is the case. we should avoid it as much as possible.
Yes, gambling is gambling, but here how we can control our behavior and try not to be affected by gambling is the most important.

Basically we should be able to see what can exist in the human mindset, let's open one of them, most people see gambling from a win, casinos provide opportunities for every gambler to get a win, when someone gets it then they will feel an extraordinary sensation, and it is very likely that in such conditions they will tell some of their friends who have never gambled at all that he has managed to get a win. And do you know what is in the mind of his friend who has never gambled? Yes, they think that they also have to gamble in order to have the same fate as his friend who just won. So let's conclude that most people come to gambling to be able to win or earn, in my opinion that is a true fact, and you have said that very few people will consider that gambling is just for entertainment.

The cycle will continue to happen and run, of course for the next problem is that they will spin on the cycle of gambling for victory and the result is losing but not up to that, they will never give up even though basically the percentage of winning is much smaller than losing. The temptation and addiction factor has made them even crazier. Therefore you must really consider, it's better to avoid it.
2230  Economy / Economics / Re: Small Scale Business Ideas on: November 15, 2023, 02:59:03 PM
...
Yes, building or starting a business is definitely full of challenges in running it, besides that, the risk of failure will definitely come, and when you start you won't always be successful at the start. Yes, it's true that we have to have a strategy to compete in the field. It's not just capital, thoughts and energy are also involved in it or people's consumption targets must also be in mind. Creative ideas are also very important, so that they are different from other competitors.

In this world, nothing is easy to achieve success, everything requires struggle and hard work, fight until you can reach the finish line, because successful people will not know the word give up. Because results will never betray a process.
People who want to achieve success will never know the word give up, I agree with this opinion. Achieving success is not as easy as turning the palm of your hand or it can just come without consistent effort. Failure in business is a normal thing and often happens, even people who have achieved success are not immune to failure. When failure approaches you, never give up and despair, you keep getting up and trying again because failure is not the end of everything.
 

Always remember that when you give up on something you are building then you are starting from zero again. building a business is not easy, it requires hard work, especially with the emergence of many competitors today, we must have a different strategy from other people to attract market interest, so, always prepare yourself mentally when you first start a business, also prepare knowledge about risk management and financial management so that you are not surprised by all the possibilities that will happen when you start running your business.

right with what you said, with so many competitors today it doesn't matter if the product or business we run is the same as everyone else as long as we have a different strategy from others to attract customers with unique ideas maybe it can attract market interest like you said, and also if they can market it well maybe it will attract more attention, by holding discounts or what is important is different from others.

By preparing everything carefully, it will reduce the risk of doing business if not reduce at least we can handle existing problems properly and not panic because there are lessons that have been understood at the beginning about things related to the business being run.
2231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling Generally An Illicit Activity? on: November 15, 2023, 08:27:05 AM
~snip~
As long as you can take care of yourself when gambling, you certainly won't worry about the problem of gambling addiction because you can prevent it from happening to you. Those who live in the same country as you can use online casinos if gambling is prohibited in your country. But you should be careful about the impacts that can be received by people who gamble frequently, especially since many people have become victims.

It's normal that many people in the area where you live think gambling is bad. Maybe they have seen what happens to someone who often gambles so they don't want one of their family members to experience the same thing so they are always alert. But, indeed, people should always be careful in gambling because they will not know when they will experience gambling problems.
Yes, even though gambling has a bad impact, I still use it responsibly and can manage my finances and time well, online gambling is really popular with many people nowadays, apart from being easy to access, everyone can also use it without having to worry about other people knowing because This activity can be done quietly.

Yes, maybe that's what causes people in my area to think gambling is bad, even though in fact we can't blame gambling because it's actually the fault of users who go too far when carrying out their gambling activities, and certainly not all gambling users like that there is responsibility and there is also carelessness, gamblers who behave badly cause people to judge other gamblers negatively.

It's good if it's like that, all gamblers like you should be able to be responsible with their time or manage their finances well. I appreciate that.

Gambling is currently busy everywhere, especially with online gambling which can now be accessed easily, as you said, it is an advantage for gambling companies because they can gamble without having to go to a gambling place, but I have seen incidents of people who arrested for gambling, maybe because in my country gambling is an activity that is prohibited because it can have negative impacts that will spread. It's true what you say, we can't blame gambling, but the fault lies with excessive users who cause dangerous impacts that harm themselves and can even harm other people. With the current popularity of online gambling, this seems to be commonplace everywhere, to the point that some people play openly in public places, and of course this is also wrong because gambling looks bad in people's eyes so it is not strange if people criticize someone for their gambling activities. in the open.
2232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: November 15, 2023, 07:35:49 AM

Gamblers who are addicted to gambling, if they win at gambling, they want to continue gambling because then they think that they will always win and become rich in gambling and if they lose, they continue to gamble and they think that they will win later and recover the loss. And will be more profitable. People who are addicted to gambling cannot convince themselves how dangerous gambling is.  They think that gambling is a very easy way to earn money and hence they can't stop gambling and don't want to take anyone else's advice too

Because the addict only thinks about the satisfaction and desires he wants to get immediately, even though in fact he is willing to make sacrifices by spending a lot of money, but if what he wants does not work, then the addict will not easily stop, it is said because he cannot control himself in gambling. . by seeing gambling as a place to make money. Yes, it is very difficult if someone has become an addict, it is also not easy for them to be given good advice or understanding in gambling, even from those closest to them.

The problem is that there are those who misunderstand gambling, many of them make gambling a place to make money and of course this is not the right thing, because basically gambling or casinos are a place to have fun even though there are opportunities to make money but that does not guarantee that it will be easy to get. and also with games that make them confident of winning so they can make money quickly. There is nothing wrong with that, but if they make gambling the main income in life, of course they make the wrong decision in gambling. And when gambling they cannot control themselves so that they can become addicted just because of a game that has made them addicted. even they can fight when given direction or advice as you said it is difficult if they are addicted. This is a problem that has become rampant with their inability to control themselves when gambling which makes them addicted to gambling. So basically, gambling or casinos are not a place to make money but to find pleasure by using money as a medium of exchange.
2233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: November 15, 2023, 07:03:15 AM
You are the only ones who could really be able to stop such possible addiction towards gambling on which you wouldnt really be putting yourself on such risks if you are really just that responsible towards your actions on which it would really be just that needed for you to have that control so that you would really be able to get away with that potential addiction which is something that you might be that ending up on a disaster if you arent that mindful towards your actions. Addiction is something a huge problem that you would really be potentially be able to experience if you arent that
something that would really be that responsible towards your gambling activity. You should be aware and you should really be that careful so that you wont really be ending up
on something that most gamblers been experiencing.
Maybe for some people this is not a big problem because they have not yet entered the realm of gambling addiction. However, when someone has become an addicted gambler, it will be very difficult to stop and also to manage it. Not everyone consciously wants to manage themselves to be able to control emotions, enthusiasm, and also various things related to gambling when they are in an addicted condition. this is quite difficult to do. Even though it is possible, the percentage may be very small.

Many cases are found to be the result of addicted gambling, it is true that even worse, they can commit criminal things because they are truly addicted, and have nothing left to gamble on. Because of that, in fact, if someone is really addicted to gambling, one way is to control and also help from people around them and also therapists or psychologists or whatever their names are who really have the skills to handle addicted gamblers. This is not only for online gamblers but also offline. but unfortunately not many people choose to go to them.

The chances of being able to stop gambling can indeed be said to be very slim, especially if they are already heavily addicted, of course it will be difficult to get rid of the addiction that has been attached and ingrained. Not to mention those who cannot accept advice from other people, friends or family, they can even rebel when advised because their brains have been quasi by gambling so they cannot accept when advised, the main key is in themselves. if they are sure and consistent to stop gambling maybe they can do it, but on the contrary, if they do it without really doing it, it will only be a waste of time.
It's true what you said. People who are already heavily addicted will do anything when they have run out of capital to gamble, even if it is at great risk to them, as you said committing crimes such as stealing or others which essentially with great risk, of course this is clearly endangering themselves. and in the end they will be confused themselves.
2234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed or risk on: November 15, 2023, 06:41:20 AM
Yes, because of the greed in him, he didn't immediately take the opportunity to take the money in front of his eyes, because he hoped that if he bet again, the money would be more.

If someone has won at gambling and he is still waiting for the gambling to end while placing a small bet then subconsciously that person will slowly run out of money because he is unable to control his behavior when gambling, he should go home and enjoy his winnings by having fun. And it is true that if someone is greedy, it is very difficult to have a good mindset not to continue gambling and we still often encounter behavior like this in the field.
Yes, that's how it is for a greedy gambler because he is never satisfied with the winnings he has gotten and will try to win another big win so he will continue gambling in other gambling games.

If he continues gambling by placing small bets, it doesn't guarantee he can win again and even if he wins, he can only win small. He will definitely experience small losses many times so it will use up all his winnings until there is nothing left at all. And when all his money is gone, he will regret it because he has indulged in his greed to chase a bigger win even though it is actually not easy to get. He must start to change his behavior and thought patterns so that he no longer follows his greed and can know when he should stop gambling, especially after winning.

With a sense of dissatisfaction that controls them so that they can experience continued losses, and of course with a mentality that will be disturbed and can even be damaged because of the feeling of wanting to gamble again that controls them.
I think the mindset that must be changed as you said, they must have a game limit that certainly will not  be detrimental to themselves, and if they have a game limit also they can enjoy the small winnings by cashing in without any thought of continuing the game that is controlled by greed that is not necessarily going to give them a big win. By continuing to play even with a large or small bet value, it does not rule out the possibility that they can lose, the loss or defeat they feel will certainly bring resentment and want to gamble again with the belief that they can reverse the loss or victory that has been lost. This has become a major problem in every gambler. So I'm not surprised that many of them waste the opportunity to cash out even though the winnings they get are not big.

If he plays responsibly, then increasing the amount at his disposal should not negatively affect him. But personally, I think that after winning the jackpot you should withdraw more than half, more like 90-95%. If this is money that can change your life or just a significant amount, then it is better to keep it for yourself, and have fun as before, playing for the same amounts as before.
Without a doubt this should be the right decision to take, but often what happens after a big win is that people begin to get greedy as they think of all the money they could make if they keep gambling and they increase the size of their bet, and then when they follow that plan they realize their luck has finally run out and they just wish to recover the money they have lost so far, only to keep losing and eventually wasting what it could have been an opportunity to improve their lives.

And it's a habit of many gamblers to continue playing when they get a win. Greed takes control of everything and makes things chaotic because of the belief that the next win will be obtained, but the reality is not that easy. As you said, many of them experience defeat after continuing the game, here they should have a limit to play so as not to make the wrong decision when deciding to continue or cash out, but it cannot be hidden that the feeling of wanting to win more is definitely felt by all players and gamblers when they get a win, because maybe they think when they get a win they are lucky so they continue the game thinking that luck is still on their side, but the reality is reversed as you said. And continue like this then lose again and lose again, without realizing they have lost a lot of winnings in vain, maybe there is an opportunity to win big but it will not be easy to happen even though they pursue it desperately in the sense that continuing to gamble does not guarantee a big win they will get.

.

I know about a friend who has been on the loosing gambling table but he keep having this interpersonal believe that somedays he would win and when he wins it is going to be a big winning that would pay him off from all he has lost in gambling with an interest and then he would just stop gambling.
That's an addicted or on the road to addiction type of gambler. Most people who lose often are off this mentality because they feel all the stories and news they see online which portray people are actually true, well some are true but making this a base to your upsession will just make things worst because with this kind of mindset, nothing ever plays again in your mind except the winning mentality which is like a dream that might or might not be possible someday.

Not only does it cause addiction, these people usually tend to be unwilling to accept advice, easily stressed, quick-tempered, and frustrated when they don't have the capital to play at the casino.
It is good for gamblers to be optimistic, but optimism alone is not enough if you gamble without having good management. It is important to keep gambling under control. If the person only continues to focus on aiming for big wins but without considering the amount that has been spent in a certain period of time, it will be very dangerous for his mental health.

Real Madrid has had an impressive start this season. Los Blancos are undoubtedly keen to strengthen their squad. Real Madrid is scouring the market to find a long-term successor for right-back Dani Carvajal. But there needs to be official information saying they are ready to recruit Alexander-Arnold. The La Liga giants need to strengthen their plans to find the next new coach. This is the most essential thing for them.

Talking about Alexander-Arnold, Famous for his excellent playmaking ability, he has become a mainstay in the Liverpool squad. During his career with Liverpool, Trent has established himself as one of the most talented right-backs. In addition to his excellent defense, Trent is known for his unique ball-handling skills. His contract will expire in 2025. The coming months could reveal whether Madrid offers a deal attractive enough to attract a star like him to the LALIGA tournament.
Madrid cannot avoid the transfer market next season apart from looking for options to replace coach Ancelotti, a striker who they really need, then a defender for Carvajal. Currently, Alexander Arnold's position is Liverpool's tough defender, in fact his presence is very vital and is able to maintain the back line solidly. Madrid needs to seduce Liverpool and this offer will not be easy to get.

Looking for a new coach, there have been rumors of two well-known names, Zidane and It's just that for a coach like Madrid, the decision will be very difficult considering that controlling a big club certainly cannot be rushed and Perez needs to consider many things according to the quality of his track record.

I wouldn't say that Chelsea's defense did too badly  against Manchester City. Because from the beginning of this match, we have seen that Chelsea played completely attacking strategy. It is very difficult to play attacking strategy while keeping the  defense strong. Moreover, opponent Manchester City's attack is the best attack in the Premier League. The way Chelsea played against them was good enough. Although Chelsea conceded four goals in this match, they managed to score four goals. I saw the performance of both the teams in the match. The way Manchester City attacked, if Chelsea's defense did not do well, Chelsea would have conceded several more goals in this match.
The attack and defense strategy worked very well, it was proven that Manchester City was overwhelmed in that match. The victory that should have been scheduled long ago to belong to Manchester City was finally dashed by a brilliant performance from Chelsea, even the defense which was known for being strong was destroyed by the Chelsea players. I think this is the best strategy battle between coaches so far and the results are very commensurate with what they showed. However, each team conceded 4 goals and of course it was all because the attack lines of both teams were so dangerous.

The statistics are enough to prove that the performance of these two teams is quite equal in the match, I honestly did not expect that Chelsea would bring a big change in the match, Chelsea managed to take 17 shots at Manchester  City's goal by producing 9 shots on target, and Manchester City under them, Guardiola's squad was only able to take 15 shots and 10 of them were on target, so with this I will slightly conclude that what you say is true that Manchester City was overwhelmed by the attack of a team that they initially might think they could not do anything.

Pochettino has shown the impact of the true contribution of what he has applied to his squad, and this is strong enough evidence, basically it is very difficult to be able to fight Manchester City or just to survive, but Chelsea can break some assumptions that they are no longer a team that can be  underestimated this time. Although yes the final result is a draw but it has been a very good achievement in my opinion for a club that is experiencing many problems, especially in terms of consistency.

While Bayern Munich are moving on without point loss Leverkusen are not so different than them either. Xabi Alonso's team have been incredible so far. When it comes to scoring productivity they are the second biggest team currently as well. Bayern Munich's statistics about that is just something else though. 

All in all it looks like Xabi Alonso and his students are determined to stay in this league title race until the end of the season. I would really love to see that honestly because I'm also fed up with seeing the same team becoming the champions over and over again.
Bundesliga became bored and uninteresting when Bayern Munich remained the only team that lifted the league crown with so much ease effort, the only contender they has was Borrusia Dortmund who have fallen our of the race. Bayern Munich have dominated Bundesliga and have remained Champions in the past decades, there's more work for Thomas Tuchel to do this season. He's having present challenge with Xabi Alonso who have proven a competent contender for the Bundesliga championship this season, we will witnessed top performance between both teams this season. Xabi Alonso have become one of the prominent coach for Bayer Leverkusen this season. There's a whole lot of action to watch from Leverkusen this season.

Indirectly it is true, that indeed the results at the end of the season are quite boring if we only see the same team that can always win titles like Bayern Munich, some assumptions arise that indeed this is quite boring as you say. How can it not be because in a decade we only see Tuchel's squad that always manages to lift the trophy. But I think and maybe most people can also feel that this season is very different compared to the last few seasons, this time we see there are some clubs that come suddenly with a very strong level of consistency, as you said, namely Leverkusen, no longer about Bayern Munich and Dortmund but there are several clubs who are in top form who join the top five of the standings.

Leverkusen come as a team that poses a significant threat to Bayern Munich through their consistency, it is clear that on the other hand Tuchel will not easily let other teams break their dominance at the end of the season. Therefore, of course this season looks more interesting, we will see several strong teams that continue to provide intense competition to break the dominance of Bayern Munich, hopefully Xabi Alonso has prepared many things for more surprising results at the end of the season.
2240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: November 14, 2023, 02:20:13 PM
I think it just depends on what kind of gambling you're going to choose, if you want to gamble on bets that are really purely based on luck then yes the answer means you need full luck in that session, but the question is that anyone will never know when they will be able to get lucky and go home with a win, that's the initial problem. Another thing, if indeed you choose to gamble on some bets that really require skills such as one of them may be sports then yes obviously you must at least have some skills that are needed there, have basic analysis and knowledge of the sport you choose which indirectly it will be useful to increase your chances of winning.

But on the other hand even though these two things look separate, still in any bet basically you will really need the luck factor, because obviously for the final result will still refer to how lucky you are. So in my opinion the two things above cannot be completely separated because everything will be involved in each other to achieve quite tantalizing results.
