241  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Am I being restricted? Again? on: December 29, 2023, 11:22:53 AM
Have you considered reaching out to the casino's management or higher-level support? Sometimes, customer service representatives might not have the authority or knowledge to resolve certain issues.
I was also considering the same option, and that is by contacting the casino's regulators if he can't get in touch with customer service. They will be able to help him with any problems he may encounter in this way.

In addition, I'm curious in the reasons behind his actions and the restrictions imposed by Evolution Gaming. I don't think it's a good enough reason that the casino limited him because he keeps winning, perhaps there are other factors that we are unaware of.  If we play at trustworthy online casinos, they occasionally offer a fair and entertaining experience in an effort to attract new players. As it's merely business, it makes sense that certain casinos would place restrictions on their patrons, particularly the highly skilled ones, in order to maintain their earnings and prevent what they see as advantage play. What sort of strategy did he employ, as he also discussed using one? Maybe there's an error in his browser and the casino's website recognized it which is why he encountered that. Could it be that he is banned due to possible violations or fraud we cannot tell.

The future doesn't matter to such gamblers. They're now in the category of mentally disordered people and their actions don't have any feelings on them or their emotions. Gamblers only need to avoid that level of addiction because it gets chronic and gets too hard to avoid. As the case may be gamblers who do all sorts of immoral activities to help them fund their gambling mission, end up ruining their life and that of their family.

Even when they are aware of the potential harm their actions can cause to others, gambling addicts are unable to resist the compulsive need to bet. In addition to being more likely to lie and manipulate, they could also distance themselves from their loved ones or disregard their social and emotional needs.  Hence, in order to support their addiction to gambling, gamblers may injure other people or act irrationally. They really needed guidance and assistance from professionals, and it is challenging to effectively put their thoughts together because their brains aren't functioning well.
Such scenes, as the original poster stated, must be taken very seriously. The thought that awful things may still be done by people, despite the fact that they will put their own family members in danger and make amends in order to satisfy their urge for gambling, was extremely depressing. It's a harsh reality. Cry

Young people who are up to the age of 18 or the appropriate age meant for gambling in their nation should be taught about the ways gambling works. What they can learn from gambling and how to implement it in their daily life. We all have some gambler friends around us, and it's also crucial to help society by helping them not to get addicted. Any moment they are in a bad mood, asking them gradually to know what is the problem can help in stabilizing the emotion so the player does not graduate to another stage of anxiety, where the process of healing him now gets too difficult. They neglect good advice because nobody controls or helps them to stick by it or practice it when gambling.

Indeed, a lot of today's youth are gradually influencing others in a way that differs from how they were raised. Drinking and gambling are common habits in the villages of my country, and it bothers me to see that young people are typically the ones who engage in these activities, as it affects their health. And sometimes typical for young people to drink excessively and lose emotional control, it makes it easy to witness fights when they lose and get intoxicated, which leads to negative behavior and more troubles.
243  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't Know, But Can i Invest In Bitcoin? on: December 28, 2023, 02:42:51 PM
Hello everybody, how are you?

In this forum i am new and proud to be here as a member of this forum. Heard there is a lot of discussion about Bitcoin so I came to join here for my own needs. Hope you all will help me. I don't have a good idea about cryptocurrencies. I just know that investing in Bitcoin is extremely profitable. But I don't know how to do it. One of my acquaintance suggested me to invest some money in Bitcoin. I told him how many dollars to invest and he said as much as I am willing to invest. I made up my mind that I would invest $500 but i am confused. I don't know much about Bitcoin so the person gave me the link to this website and suggest me to know about the various opinions of users on various topics. Since I see that Bitcoin is always discussed , I want your suggestions about my Bitcoin investment.

Should I invest money with the suggestion of that guy? He told me that if I invest I will get good profit. He said, he will open my bitcoin wallet and help to buy bitcoins. Should I invest in bitcoin?
I hope you get the answers you need here, and welcome to the forum. The fact that a friend told you about bitcoin and even advised that you invest in it is great to hear actually. That being said, you should also be aware that bitcoin is unstable, which means that its price will change based on the market. Bitcoin can indeed be extremely profitable—but only if the market is high and you are willing to take the risk and hold for the long term.  But before you invest, make sure you read up on how it works and do a full analysis to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the investment and to ensure that nobody loses out.

Allowing someone, even a buddy, to create a bitcoin wallet on your behalf is not acceptable in my opinion. Since your private keys, which are required to access and utilize your bitcoins, are contained in it. Additionally, you run the danger of losing your money if you allow your friend to open a bitcoin wallet on your behalf because you never know when they might become dishonest, irresponsible, or hacker-prone.  And You also forfeit privacy and control over your finances. It would be best if you looked up how to make your wallet. After all, you should learn about bitcoin on your own and be knowledgeable about it before trying to figure out how it works. You can search on YouTube or read the discussions here, especially the ones they provided you, as there are a variety of information sources available these days. I'm sure it will be helpful.

I'm in favor too, for the safety of others especially if a person is a legit and clinically diagnosed with mental illness, But if a person is being judged because of physical appearance and there's a proof that this person didn't do anything bad inside the casino/gambling shop then It seems like it would be unfair to them if they were suddenly banned just because of a misjudgment and the way a person dressed. Maybe the best thing to do is to tell and talk to the person about the dress code or the casino themselves should make rules about this matter, not to suddenly ban the person from entering the shop because people think he is mentally unstable even though it has not been proven yet .

Sometimes what you see is the truth when it comes to a person's appearance and you really can't help it because you're either being humane but you will be removed from your job so that's how it's going to be sometimes. Sure the dress code would be a good idea but the problem is that if they're really mentally unstable and they're looking like that then you're putting yourself in danger.
Yet, it is unfair and inaccurate to judge someone only on the basis of how they look; it is as though we are assuming things about them or making views about them without knowing anything about their character, behavior, or their possible situations. As you mentioned, judging someone by their appearance can be cruel and could result in our removal from our jobs. One thing is that we have no proof of their actions in real life.
People who are great pretenders, like wolves in sheep's clothing, can sometimes deceive others. There are also those who experience a gambling addiction without showing any outward symptoms or attitudes connected to it. You never know, though they might have been more likely to cause trouble from the area and the bar person did not pay attention to them because he might have believed that they were mentally stable even though they are not.

Therefore, we must always keep in mind that it is more fair and kind to approach others with understanding and make an effort to comprehend their situations and experiences before throwing judgement.
People are naturally judgmental, its not really that a shocker.  Cool. When someone do really visit out on a casino venue then everyone is really that free on doing so. Dont mind others gestures or on how the way they look and behave because we do really have different appearances and on how we do deal up with things. It is really just that normal that there might be some noticing others appearances but judging out is never
been that ideal or something that would be good into consideration. How you would be able to know if someone isnt really that mentally stable? The way they do behave? The way that they do looks?
You are really just that too judgmental if you are really that something like this. You cant really just that make yourself to have that kind of behavior or something not really that recommended at all.

Dont make yourself that having kind of views into other people so easily. You would really be that getting that kind of negative impression towards other peoples eyes.
We dont like into those people who are really that easy to judge.
As I mentioned in my earlier responses, I'm just giving everyone additional advise to stop making snap judgments about individuals based just on how they seem. People are highly judgmental, as you mentioned, but we should train our minds to control it and set boundaries. Similar to gambling, it is impossible to determine whether someone is mentally ill. Regarding the original question, there isn't really a definitive response because people's mental stability varies greatly and it's difficult to determine whether someone is mentally unstable. You can't tell, for example, if a gambler with a mischievous smile on his face and constant laughter has stable mental stability or not. To be honest, from what I've seen, some mentally ill folks still want to gamble. Those with mental instability attempt to act normal in order to fool others. Still, people make excellent pretenders. Okay, that concludes it.

246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job on: December 25, 2023, 06:16:50 PM

This is actually interesting, but I still don't dare take the risk of becoming a profession just as a gambler, like what happened to my friends where they really couldn't control their gambling, they became addicts and even spent a lot of their assets. If I think a little wiser than making gambling as a profession, why don't we work on a gambling website, either as an admin or own a casino company as well. it will definitely keep us safer from the risks of gambling with big money as a salary. It doesn't need to be instant, the most important thing is that our assets are safe.

The problem is not if one can work as a gambling professional and earn from it alone. Although there are people who do not care about the work they do in as much as it is legitimate and brings food to the table. But there are also people who values prestige and as such they ensure the kind of work they do is very much not only legal but also ethical.

Gambling in some countries is illegal and in some countries it is legal but not ethical. Who will be that friend who will be in the gathering of their fellow friends, why others are introducing themselves as programmers, lawyers, designers, they will introduce themselves as a professional gambler. That does not hold any prestige I mean.
Professional gambling can be emotionally and financially exhausting, so it might not be suitable for everyone. It's possible that those who try to turn gambling into a career will fail miserably and suffer large losses.
 Because gamblers are prone to developing gambling addictions, several countries have banned gambling due to social, cultural, and religious reasons. Also, maybe other nations may have done that to protect their citizens' health and avoid taking any unnecessary risks.

It is likely that the majority of people are searching for a decent, legitimate work. something of which you are proud and may confidently discuss with others as you are aware that it is clean and won't raise any suspicions. However, it is disappointing to realize that there are those who are not as fortunate and clutch to a knife blade in order to survive and meet their basic needs.
247  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Prove me wrong: Gambling is both more relaxing and entertaining than trading! on: December 25, 2023, 05:15:44 PM

I think trading is more tensed than gambling in gambling all you need to do is to get your games properly predicted to have a winning and to whatever prediction someone that is what they will get as in a return, and again gamblers already had this mindset that it a game of probability or chance based game and they wouldn't go that deep in putting their money to gamble even though there are chronic gambler who don't care about how much they spent in betting a game or multiple matches but we should they can't continually wasting such amount of money just make huge profits and even if they do we can term such people to be gambling addicts.

While in trading we have more pressure if that person is still a newbies trade s/he can easily empty their account at cost of trying to knows there stands maybe to make profit, although emptying account depends on individual they can still managed their funds possible gain little profit at point of that. Trading can be more preferable to to gambling since there are all possible best to still have your funds left with you compared to gambling were you place a bet and if the bet goes against you then the staked amount is gone.

Basically, trading is based on the desire to earn money, and gambling is based on the opportunity to earn money and get unforgettable emotions. Both there and there you can both achieve great success and lose all your money by getting into credits. Trading in this case is quite a lot of work
They both want to achieve the same thing and they are not different from each other. Their role as an instrument to provide you with profit, excitement, and problems alike is the same as yours as the investor or bettor. The issue comes from the fact that once you commit your time to this type of money-profit activity, you feel compelled to complete the task at the moment.

If you trade, you must control your decision-making and set a budget for your investment. While some people enjoy trading because it will challenge them and has more potential for financial gain, others prefer gambling because it offers the excitement of chances and the possibility of big rewards.  Because of this, it all depends on the individual's preferences and expertise in this field. If you partake in any of these activities, you should trade and gamble responsibly. Rather than acting in a compulsive manner, try to comprehend and analyze the circumstances.
248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: December 25, 2023, 04:39:19 PM

A decent gambling site should be transparent and fair, but we must still be watchful. While community strength is in numbers, personal effort is the first defence. A healthy and engaging gambling experience requires trust and caution in online venues.

This is true, we should know what we are doing, so in case we sign up to a gambling site to play, before we agree with their terms, everything that is written was already understood. Complaining in the end is useless because every casino might have a different rules, once you sign up, that simply means you agree to it.

Actually, for gamblers who doesn't really risk huge money, it's okay not to read the terms especially if they can just let go of their money in case their account will be ban and funds will be frozen. In the end, it's still up to our choice, and all the time it's important to be aware of the risk.
Reading the rules in the casino is at least a must, but we can choose whatever we can read. Experienced gamblers only look for the most important parts like deposits, withdrawals, KYC, bonus issues, wagers, etc. Some parts vary from one casino to another, so we must ensure that we understand the rules and will not break them. For those with little knowledge, reading the rules is highly recommended because they need to know the rules so they don't break them. Indeed, reading the rules is boring because the rules are written very long, so many gamblers need to be more active in reading them, especially those who are inexperienced. But that's the way so that we clearly understand the rules and can avoid mistakes later.
Indeed, it would be preferable if gamblers read the terms of service before clicking the "I accept" or "I agree" buttons. However, it is a sad fact that, from what I've read on this forum, gamblers hardly ever read the ToS since they find it boring to read and the lengthy phrases to be uninteresting.  To be honest I am also lazy, because reading those terms of service would merely take up more of my time. I would almost entirely ignore the most significant part of a game when I'm eager to play and place a wager.
However sometimes, though, when I'm new to a casino's online platform or app, I read about the minimum and maximum deposits needed to play.
Usually, all the games I play are recommended by my friends so for me why should I read the whole terms and conditions when I have them who can explain to me directly without any confusion on how to play it.

If he doesn't do something foolish, then let him be, ignore him, and respect his privacy. Knowing that you ask the attendant, she readily confirms to you that he doesn't misbehave and that, despite his appearance, she was already at ease having him as a frequent customer.

In a situation of mental instability, it is possible that a person has developed a gambling addiction while under the influence of alcohol or illicit drugs. Moreover, it goes without saying that a bartender may have an ethical duty to step in and stop a mentally unstable customer from partaking in risky activities if they see that person is unstable and likely to be harmed by gambling. We should not determine someone's mental stability based solely on their outward look. We don't have the same perspective, and I'm aware that a lot of people may judge you by the way you look or make judgments.  As many have said to me, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should security be employed in local bet shop? on: December 25, 2023, 02:48:32 PM
For those persons who prefer gambling in local bet shops instead of gambling online. I know that most times some persons carry huge sums of money to come to gamble and I understand that if it was a local casino there would be securities. Now, in the local bet shop, why are there no securities? I know a local bet shop close to where I reside. There are no securities there and there are people who act strange and mentally unstable there. They could cause fights, noise, and cheat. So for other persons to feel safe betting there I think securities should be employed there.
I'm not sure why yours lacks security when, in reality, safety comes before happiness. Well, in my country some local bet shops have a security to monitor the people inside and of course to ensure the safety of everyone. To prevent robberies and other criminal activity, they would also install a CCTV in order to determine the culprits. Naturally, there are many other gamblers near you, so you never know when someone may be holding hatred towards you and be waiting to attack when you're placing a wager.
For that reason, whenever you attend any public place, regardless of security measures in place, you should always be aware of your personal safety and security.
251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: December 25, 2023, 02:19:25 PM
~snip~
Yeah, I agree. Doing office work and gambling should be separated. It really just needs the right sequence of time management. Also, a self-discipline in order to follow those time management you’ve created and also to avoid future difficulty regarding to our real work and office life. We must remember that gambling combines luck, intelligence, and the strategy that you need to apply. Its assurance of making money out of gambling is just below 10%. While our real work in life is the one who assures to give us the amount of money, we need in our real life which we call salary. It might be dangerous to gamble at work since it can put our financial security in jeopardy.
Some companies have strict rules regarding their workers; if they observe you engaging in extraneous activities that could interfere with your job, they may take disciplinary or ethical action against you. I prefer that way though.
We have to be able to manage our time so that we don't disturb each other. When we are in the office, we have to focus on our work, and even though we are taking a break, we have to use it to rest and not gamble, even though some people can gamble and are not affected by the results they get in gambling. However, an emotional factor will affect their work performance, and when they experience loss, it may affect them that day. After all, we have more time to gamble if we are at home, so we can use it to relieve stress and fatigue or just want to relax by gambling. The important thing is that we understand when to gamble and don't need to force ourselves to keep gambling when working. When we work in an office, we can make money from our salary, while if we gamble, we may not be able to make money. From there, we should be able to think about what is more appropriate to do, and that's where we have to be wise in using gambling.
Yes, gambling at work can indeed divert your attention and lower your level of productivity. It could also result in mistakes in our job and make it more difficult for us to meet deadlines. In my opinion, if you lose at gambling to the point where it affects your work, you are being unprofessional, which can harm your reputation. As as a consequence, you may not be able to grow in your career and may pass up opportunities. For example, if your boss notices that you have potential for promotion, you may be given the opportunity to do so, but you change abruptly because of your new vice and start gambling.
You still run the risk of losing your job because you are poor at time management and even include up your gambling habit. Therefore, it is preferable to avoid gambling and instead find a way to manage your stress at work without having an impact on it.
252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to ride and stop! on: December 25, 2023, 06:45:24 AM
Fella should know when to ride when you are on a win streak. You can test the water first by betting slowly until you get the tempo of winning streak then slowly increase your bet while you are still winning. Stop immediately when you encounter a lose or two because there’s a high chance that you will be tilted and chase loss until you lose everything.

Don’t increase your bet when you are losing because it will just amplify your loss immediately once you are in bad streak. Always test the water before you increase your bet.  Wink
Setting goals and deciding on a target profit is essential. A gambler must exercise self-control in order to achieve this. However, because there was a strong belief that the winning run would continue. It's good that you use a pre-established betting plan or strategy that all members of this forum can employ easily. I think it's a good idea to start the game with a small wager that we can afford to lose, and if we win gradually, we should raise our stakes. However, if we lose, we shouldn't rush into making a big bet that could result in more losses. Thanks to you OP Cheesy

Because of the thrill and glamour of money, some people might lose control of their emotions. It's crucial that we maintain our composure and avoid allowing our feelings to influence our decisions by becoming overconfident or taking needless risks that might jeopardize the profits that we make.

To be honest, the choice to ride a winning streak is personal and is based on your objectives, risk tolerance, and personal preferences.  However, it's important that you play responsibly and that you always put the enjoyment of the game over trying to earn more money consistently.
253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner needs your advices in gambling. on: December 25, 2023, 03:08:35 AM
Self-control is a lifelong talent, like a mental muscle that needs continual training. Individuals must work on this skill. This is very important in the gambling industry. The thrill of the game and the promise of winnings are seductive yet dangerous. We must teach newcomers the difference between a safe bet and a risky one. Don't only prevent loss; foster a mindset that regards gambling as enjoyment, not an income stream. This viewpoint must be emphasised!

The recreational nature of gambling cannot be stressed. We must fight for this! Gambling should be fun and fun, not obligatory. It's about the adrenaline, excitement, and socialising, not the money. We must teach newbies that gambling is like going to a movie or concert: a method to relax, not a way to gain money. We, the experts, must teach beginners this mindset. Remember: responsible gambling as a hobby may add colour and pleasure to life without threatening financial security.
Indeed, we must instruct those who are new to gambling on the dos and don'ts of the game since they may gamble excessively and lose self-control. We have to instill in them the idea that practicing self-control when it comes to gambling would enable them to better control emotions and make thoughtful judgments rather than acting on the impulsive of the moment.  They can keep gambling and other various aspects of their lives in check by practicing efficient time management.

They must also learn to set boundaries, such as understanding when to give up gambling even when luck seems to be on their side and resisting the want to keep going over their set limitations. However, as you pointed out, it's difficult to resist the urge, particularly when they start talking about money or add more.  Some gamblers develop a habit of gambling and feel obligated to continue playing even when no one gives them orders (unless they are in debt, in which case they would naturally find other methods to pay their creditors and may believe that gambling is the only option available to them). Sad

Gambling for newbies is like what they see and assume the streamers do on their channels; win big money and hit financial freedom. Everyone wants high finance in today's world, hence they can do anything possible to hit the funds. Gambling came as a way of fun, with rewards, but the players prioritize the need to gamble for money. And it's wrong to have the same mindset that has ruined many gamblers. It's a difficult process of making money. Because gambling only gives transient riches. The players only have fun, relaxation, and life strategies, issued to them as a way of earning via gambling. Addiction increase is only due to the love for the money in gambling. Many gamblers who didn't have the money in mind, end up earning big via gambling. They follow important routines and procedures in gambling that help them escape addiction and make the right moves in gambling. Newbies who begin with efficient time management can succeed in gambling and won't have a reason to regret gambling, that's if they don't lose control.

Like I'd always say, gambling has different ways of dealing with addiction and strategies. A gambler can be focused on using some strategies, and along the line things change, maybe financially in his life, he'd want to try another means of making some funds in gambling, thereby losing out on his previous gambling ethics. The house also works strides ahead to destabilize a gambler's strategy, hence luring more newbies who started fine to chase losses. Hence, the right thing for a newbie is to always have a break, whenever they're not comfortable with the results they see in gambling. It only takes different factors to escape gambling addiction, which includes all the above-mentioned criteria like gambling for fun, followed by doing what's right in the real world in gambling. Not spending recklessly and being calculative in all our moves.
Because they may not be familiar with the rules and strategies that apply to gambling with the particular game they play, some beginners of the game are frequently easily influenced by online streamers. Also, some online streamers can establish a sense of proof by showcasing their success, therefore, newcomers may be more likely to trust and emulate themselves after someone who seems to be successful in their gambling endeavors.
These people need to change their perspective because it will cause them to become irrational and believe they will earn large sums of money while remaining unaware of how much they will lose.
Addiction has also increased because of their mental trap, which produces a dopamine rush similar to what gamblers experience. Some also suffer from mental health issues, while others were exposed to gambling at a young age and developed addictions due to peer pressure or family history.

As you pointed out, this is why taking a break is so important since it will enable them to think things through and determine whether they are on the right path.  also, for them to control the urge to gamble and the money they spend through gambling would not be wasted.
254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does casino streamers have influence in your gambling life? on: December 24, 2023, 05:35:11 PM
I came across on YouTube where a gambling casino social influencer was streaming about a casinos platform.
He literally brought out his phone and was illustrating to the audiences that it is just few steps to take the winning on your games which is making choice of your predictions, choose amount to bet and also indicate his hashtag referral code and click on confirm.
Immediately you get credited directly to your account that just you won.
I just smiled but I want to ask, how many of you guys develops interests on a particular casino platform due to the influence of the casinos streamers?
When I was searching YouTube for ways to generate money, I came across this situation. An influencer introduced an online casino platform, and they would teach you how to play the game or offer you hints. It was as though they would reveal to you a pattern for how to play the particular game they engage in. In essence, the game was too simple, yet you still had to predict what would appear next. I follow his instructions since I was curious and excited about the prospect of earning "easy money" at that particular time.
I download the app, use his referral code to log in, and play the game he has been showcasing on his channel because the amount you needed to cash in is so little. I win initially, but after a while I realize that the pattern he displays on his channel wasn't the same as the one I was playing in. I gave up on the game after realizing that I had already lost and that the money I had invested in it had been wasted. So far, I only experienced it twice and I promise to myself that I would never do it again. It was like 5 years ago.
255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: December 24, 2023, 05:13:54 PM
Office work give you income and you should not compromise of the office work because of gambling. Sometimes you complete the office work and have time, then you can gamble. but if there is a pending office work and you start to gambling, and ignoring the office work, then it is not only unethical but also you are not faithful to your job and duty.
This is true. Those of us who already work in office jobs should not do anything that could violate office rules. We have been given a salary commensurate with our work, so we shouldn't waste it just because we want to gamble, which we can't resist. We should be able to separate the desire to gamble from work at the office so that we can only focus on work at the office. Apart from that, we can gamble again when we go home or after we get home from work, we can go to a cafe to gamble. Gambling at the office is not worth doing because we only risk losing our job. And if we were fired from our jobs just because of gambling, how would we explain it to our families? That will be a big problem for us and our family because we will have difficulty meeting our daily needs. After all, we have lost our jobs at the office, so we no longer get paid.

Yeah, I agree. Doing office work and gambling should be separated. It really just needs the right sequence of time management. Also, a self-discipline in order to follow those time management you’ve created and also to avoid future difficulty regarding to our real work and office life. We must remember that gambling combines luck, intelligence, and the strategy that you need to apply. Its assurance of making money out of gambling is just below 10%. While our real work in life is the one who assures to give us the amount of money, we need in our real life which we call salary. It might be dangerous to gamble at work since it can put our financial security in jeopardy.
Some companies have strict rules regarding their workers; if they observe you engaging in extraneous activities that could interfere with your job, they may take disciplinary or ethical action against you. I prefer that way though.

Self-control is important in the life of every gambler and newbies need to utilize the opportunity of being informed of such a strategy. But it's quite difficult for the newbies to learn all these in one go. They need to practice the process through gambling and it's not simple to be a gambler who wouldn't face a strong urge to break free from the strategy we knew about before gambling. As a newbie asking questions is cool, but the best advice I'd give to a newbie is to open up to his close friends about the new habit of gambling he's developed. Because the online community may not be able to save the player if they begin to make mistakes in gambling. The advice can't work. Even when a person gets addicted, and wants to change, he'll also fight against it. I mean some addicts begin to find it hard to accept, that gambling addiction could be curable. In the long run, gambling with caution and reading strategies online is a secondary thing, the primary aim is being close to gamblers or nongamblers in real life. Who can talk to us first hand. Face to face conversation helps faster than just reading books or online articles.

Gamblers whose aim centers around money still wouldn't understand the type of problem gambling they've been into, not that they won't lose or win. But the reaction on the brain could get the player high, like any other substance. At that point, he will be addicted and won't be able to come out of the addiction. The fear of change and the core hurt of addiction correlates then confusing the addicted player to think that addiction is impossible to heal. It's the hardest form of curing an addicted person. To save newcomers from getting addicted, some practices like having a second signatory to their bank account can help reduce the bankruptcy rate of the gambler. It's better to save the player's money, and then begin treatment, instead of losing the money and the mental control. It puts the gambler in more severe pain.
Yes, self-control is important for everyone and plays a role not only in gambling but also in everything around us. And especially for those who gamble, they need to have good self-control so they are not easily tempted by whatever they see while they are gambling. Learning self-control is difficult, but it's worth learning so those who gamble can avoid losing a lot. Moreover, with good self-control, they can avoid losing a lot and won't gamble excessively. In learning self-control, a person must continuously practice it until they really have good self-control and can play gambling calmly and enjoy it as entertainment. Those who are still beginners need to be able to learn this self-control so that they don't get into the serious problems gamblers face. They don't need to gamble too often just because they want to have fun because they can still get pleasure from other things that don't involve money. And those who are beginners don't hesitate to ask people experienced in gambling so they can learn from them.

Those who want to make money from gambling should not try it seriously because they will have difficulty getting it. And if they keep trying it by gambling more often, they must be prepared to experience gambling addiction. If they already have a gambling addiction, it will not be easy to recognize it and many gambling addicts cannot stop themselves from gambling. That is why novice gamblers need to master self-control well and we always warn them to limit themselves in gambling so that they do not experience any problems. And don't forget always to have a healthy mindset when gambling. Always remember that gambling is just for fun and not to make money. By having a positive mindset, they will not try to win but will only gamble moderately and try to be responsible gamblers.
Self-control is a lifelong talent, like a mental muscle that needs continual training. Individuals must work on this skill. This is very important in the gambling industry. The thrill of the game and the promise of winnings are seductive yet dangerous. We must teach newcomers the difference between a safe bet and a risky one. Don't only prevent loss; foster a mindset that regards gambling as enjoyment, not an income stream. This viewpoint must be emphasised!

The recreational nature of gambling cannot be stressed. We must fight for this! Gambling should be fun and fun, not obligatory. It's about the adrenaline, excitement, and socialising, not the money. We must teach newbies that gambling is like going to a movie or concert: a method to relax, not a way to gain money. We, the experts, must teach beginners this mindset. Remember: responsible gambling as a hobby may add colour and pleasure to life without threatening financial security.
Indeed, we must instruct those who are new to gambling on the dos and don'ts of the game since they may gamble excessively and lose self-control. We have to instill in them the idea that practicing self-control when it comes to gambling would enable them to better control emotions and make thoughtful judgments rather than acting on the impulsive of the moment.  They can keep gambling and other various aspects of their lives in check by practicing efficient time management.

They must also learn to set boundaries, such as understanding when to give up gambling even when luck seems to be on their side and resisting the want to keep going over their set limitations. However, as you pointed out, it's difficult to resist the urge, particularly when they start talking about money or add more.  Some gamblers develop a habit of gambling and feel obligated to continue playing even when no one gives them orders (unless they are in debt, in which case they would naturally find other methods to pay their creditors and may believe that gambling is the only option available to them).

Right game is not enough, the right startegy is important as well as that will give you the win, a consistent win that we are all wanting for. One shot or big shot win could make us make big money but we will still come back to gamble, and that will eventually result to losing what we won, so it's not working, we need some kind of consistency to gain that profit.
Right games and right strategies is not really enough depend luck or not with gambling platform to be winner, I don't sure consistency only can't guarantee to gain high profit in gambling platform because many gambler have tried thousand kinds of strategies, bet with the right games based on their skill until keep consistent repeat on the same game but not get lucky yet with consistent win the gambling.

If not lucky in gambling waste your time, strategies and all thing required in gambling because the only one important thing in gambling is about lucky.
Given that luck will only be significant in the short term, we cannot simply rely on it. Knowing the odds of each game and basing your decision on probability are both crucial. You will be able to assess what will happen next while getting additional information in this way. Because the odds usually favor the casino, relying solely on luck can lead to huge losses. Depending just on luck could result in rash decisions because you would only be following your instincts, and chasing losses could quickly turn into a dangerous gambling habit if you were to lose.

It may therefore help you keep your mental composure and avoid suffering unnecessary losses if you have a plan and make informed, well-informed decisions. Being aware of the game is crucial since you might be able to boost your chances of winning, but you should remind yourself to set limits in every gambling activity that you bet on.

Correctly! Gambling environments, especially in casinos, are often designed in such a way as to create an attractive and tempting atmosphere. Bright lights, loud sounds, and flashy colors can affect a person's brain, making him trapped in an exciting atmosphere. All of these elements can make it difficult for people to stop even if they already feel like stopping. Moreover, associations with fun and rewards can make people forget the risks and negative consequences of gambling. As a result, someone can become complacent and continue gambling without realizing the negative impacts that may arise.
Yes, in addition to its lively ambiance, casinos offer a large range of games and betting alternatives to suit your interests. It's almost like the atmosphere itself tempts you to play and have fun.  Because there is a lot of social interaction, like talking to other players or taking part in tournaments, you will never get bored easily. Aside from having fun in casinos you can also make friends and discuss gambling, it is an opportunity to share each other’s tactics of what field they are experts in.   Bonus points if they serve refreshments that can make you feel at ease.

But we must keep in mind that gambling establishments, like casinos, are designed to stimulate your curiosity and may promote compulsive gambling and risk-taking. It is therefore essential to place bets sensibly and pay attention to your surroundings. We can't predict when someone will trip you since gamblers reveal a wide range of different behaviors and attitudes of people.
259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one did you use to gamble with more on: December 23, 2023, 05:40:16 PM
I prefer staking before matches start when I started to gamble as a newbie. I later prefer virtual matches. I left both to staking on live matches which is what I gamble with most on bookies now.

This is just for fun. Let us post and have fun to know which one that most people on this forum that are posting on this gambling board like most.


Do not gamble more than you can afford to lose.
The ability to see the game and judge the current level of play before placing my bets is one reason why I would prefer live matches. It will provide me with some new perspectives on the situation. Even though live betting is unexpected and might go quickly at times, I find it to be quite entertaining and exciting. Since I was only playing for fun and spending time with my friends who are my fellow bettors, I only risked a small sum of money to avoid losing too much and avoid being too depressed about how much money I lost in this kind of event.

Since I don't bet on football games very often, I don't think it's important to take the game too seriously since if you do, you won't have as much fun. Dismay, anxiety over winning or losing, and intense emotion to the point that you're exhausted and no longer enjoying the game are more likely to take its place. Therefore, I would rather keep my peace of mind and watch the game while placing a tiny bet that way, I can observe the game more freely and won't care if I win or lose. If I win it's a stroke of luck; if I fail, I simply believe that now isn't the right time for me to succeed.

Here are two things to take note of before gambling
1.have a budget:it's very crucial to set a budget, decide how much money you are comfortable spending on gambling
Always stake what you can afford to lose. Have a limit and stick to it, doing it this way wouldn't put you under
Pressure and anxiety
2.Take breaks:This is a very important point..gambling can be very addicting especially when we start excepting a lot from it
From the first point I made I said you should always stake what you can afford to lose but it's important to
Take regular breaks especially when your losses are more than your wins.give yourself time to recover cause it's all about maintaining a healthy balance...I hope this helps someone out there
I've seen several topics about responsible gambling. Everyone is aware of this topic, and we frequently warn people about the dangers of gambling and advise them on what not to do. However, I wanted to add that, in addition to setting a budget, it's also important to establish a time limit for how long you'll spend gambling. To avoid conflict with your work, family etc. Additionally, it's crucial to avoid borrowing money to gamble with because you run the risk of losing it and wasting your money. It will also result in a lot of debtors and financial problems for you.

It has come to my attention that certain people engage in illegal gambling, whereby they combine their vices of drugs and alcohol. Such people need to use their winnings from gambling to support their unhealthy habits. An action must be taken immediately.

That is why it is important to take a break and do some stuff that can divert your attention, like setting a daily time to exercise, go out with your friends and spend more time with your family. It is common knowledge that gambling should not be our primary source of income.  It is important to have a realistic expectation and understand that the house always wins.
