So, it is, well, not all players have the same perspectives, things have a different way of looking when they are shown to players who have more experience, as far as I am concerned, I have seen the attitude of some friendly players, they see the game almost like a necessity to do, it doesn't matter that it's every day in a moderate way, this makes things change in them, in their brain, it doesn't matter that things don't happen to them, even if they lose, I think finally They understand that the game is made practically for fun, that every time they play they have to have that money ready to be lost, but don't feel sorry for things to keep flowing, I say this from the point of view that I have a couple of friends, who always play street games, but it's a somewhat safe street game, because they do it with the cops.

The border police always let some contraband through, this friend is going to play with them betting on dice, and I have had the opportunity to see how he also loses and still does not lose control, I know he is angry , and he even swears at the Police, but the truth is that 100% of what he talks about, 90% is pure Rudeness , but they still know what he is like, and even though he has losses , he has had more gains than losses , That's something I don't Understand , however when they play he tells them that what they do is "rattle" and "rattle" is a word that means something like taking money from those who smuggle and that they also use that smuggling they have their cut, that is what the word is basically assigned to the police, and since everything is money in the world, these things are common in these third world countries and since it is the most Active frontera in all of South America , they are things that all the military, police guards do whatever it takes to be able to send them to that border, because in a matter of a day they are Capable of making up to more than 500 usd , they all fight to go there, so what I rescue here is that despite that players lose, there is always something they like about this type of game, whether on the street, in traditional casinos , or in online casinos , the attitude of a Mature player Always has to be one of acceptance and maturity in order to continue Maintaining afloat on this.
That means players like us have to set an example so that we can also moderate our gambling game and not cross the boundaries we may have made long ago to get back on the right track. Indeed some players can realize that gambling is made just for fun and not to make money, and they fully know that what they do in gambling is for fun. And for that, they always try to set a gambling budget and keep themselves on track. They can also stop before all their money is spent on gambling so they still have a balance in their account that they can use to gamble another day. That's what we really have to be aware of and follow to avoid gambling addiction, and we may not know when gambling addiction will come.

unfortunately it is very difficult for people to accept defeats, nobody likes to lose, even in a friendly game, with friends and that money is not involved, when someone loses in this game that person gets angry and hardly accepts that defeat. there are cases in which people soon resort to violence even if the same person they are attacking is a friend who always helps them, but as in the game he lost, he loses his head and attacks his friend. Right here in my neighborhood there are gambling and I have constantly seen people come in to play, they join a group of friends and after a few hours the confusion starts, they argue a lot and then they start to fight

and the most unbelievable thing is that the reason for the fight is because the guys who lost in the game of chance didn't accept defeat and the winners started laughing at the losers, with that the guys who lost started the fight, I can't sleep because of their fight , but as there are no police and no one strong to go and help their fight, so we are simply praying that their common sense prevails and they stop fighting. this happens even when people are playing in physical casinos, people who lose a lot leave the physical casino frustrated and sad and for that reason they even resort to the use of drugs so that their pain goes away, but when they do that these people start to get addicted to drugs

in my case, when I started playing I lost a lot, before each game I created a lot of expectations and made a plan about what I would do in case of victory, but when the game ended I saw that I lost money and I was sad and disappointed, with 1 months playing I realized that it was making me very bad and that's why I decided to stop playing and I only went back to playing after years and when I came back to play, I created rules that I follow, one of them is that I shouldn't put emotions in the game, to losing is part of the game and I don't create high expectations when I play
Indeed, no one likes to lose, and they will issue various expressions to show their displeasure to others, and they may even use violence to let others know that they do not like losing. But they should have realized that if it is a gambling game, they have two choices, win or lose. If they win, they can express their win; if they lose, they can't be angry and must accept it. After all, didn't the opposing party also use or express their defeat with anger?

Experiencing loss can disappoint and frustrate us, but we must remember that we cannot win continuously and will take turns with the opposing party. So we must be able to carry ourselves, including calming our emotions when we experience that defeat. And this is why we must be able to control our emotions wherever and whenever to remain calm no matter what happens. And if we carry this attitude over to gambling, we can certainly cool off our emotions, and maybe we can just leave the casino to calm the emotions that haven't been able to go away.

~snip~
A good point is to prevent that lust to keep playing, if you pause for a while or quit for a while you will manage to make good decision compared to keep trying and keep experiencing more losing streak, that will lead you to more money to lose, you need to be wise and have that clear mindset not to follow your emotions if you wanted to control your bankroll management.

The more you stay calm, the better you can think. If you pause for a while and let that bad vibes to pass, maybe you may find ways to start winning back, just maybe, but no guarantee as you are into gambling.
By stopping for a while, at least you can take a deep breath and relax your body and mind to relieve your emotions that you may be unable to hold back. Usually, emotions will peak when we experience consecutive losses, which can cause us to rush into gambling, and there is a possibility that we will increase the number of bets because we want to get a big win at once. But without good self-control, we will not be able to calm down and lose self-control even more to experience even more defeats.

By stopping, we can get peace, especially if we can drink fresh water, giving us freshness. And there is indeed no guarantee of winning when gambling, and we must be aware of that.

The first thing that makes many young people do this without thinking twice is because they think that there are still parents who can give what they ask for, they can even rely on their parents to demand their needs and lifestyle so they don't think clearly in the long term and often just ignored.
Indeed, the needs of a child are the responsibility of parents, but at least every child should be able to think and consider what he is doing so that there is no disappointment from the parents when they find out that their child has done something wrong.
Providing education to young people about understanding the risks of gambling and investing, in my opinion, is a good step so they can think about which one is better and can provide benefits in the future because young people have a long life journey.
In addition, providing insight and education about financial management is also very important and can make the younger generation have a more educated soul to think about how to develop themselves to make money without having to pay a lot of money.
This will go back to how parents can educate their children because if parents can educate their children properly and correctly, their children will not disappoint their parents and will do the best for their parents. But the reality is that parents have done their best to educate their children but because their children have the wrong association, they have chosen the wrong path and disappointed their parents. Perhaps parents need to tell them what risks their children will face if they get involved in gambling so that their children can think about the impact on their future. If there is good communication between parents and their children, there will be no misunderstandings or serious problems. And providing insight and education to their children from childhood can give them the awareness to have a more educated soul and think about how they should act, including when they are with their friends. Her children will not go wrong and can even become role models for their friends.

that all because online gambling is very easy to access from anywhere so its very easy for someone to continue gambling and its difficult to avoid gambling and on the one hand its related to diverting activities so you do not constantly think about gambling in so many ways, like having a business or side job or something positive. which does not harm other people but can divert our minds not to think too much about gambling. like I myself choose to play video games in my spare time and I think I've said that before.
and it all comes back to each others mindset because everyone has different thoughts and as long as they have a strong determination to live a better and healthier life without gambling its better to have broader thoughts.
If someone can control their mind by having other activities, I don't think they will constantly think about gambling and can handle it just fine. But usually, thoughts about gambling will come when we are relaxing or doing nothing so we immediately think about playing gambling while relaxing. It depends on each one because when I'm relaxing, I enjoy my leisure time and don't think about gambling unless I really want to have fun playing gambling, then I'll just gamble right away. I used to play video games often, but it could keep me from playing for a long time, so I stopped playing games and chose to do something else.
2544  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do wager affect outcomes in any provably fair games on: August 12, 2023, 01:23:32 PM
and if we feel something is unfair, we can look for other places to gamble. because it is a game of luck, what is displayed is a random result, and we cannot always win and also always lose. maybe it will be different if you play on a demo account, we can get a higher percentage of wins. that's how I feel. and on a real account, we will just have fun with the game. if we have bad prejudices, then all casinos can be bad.
Feeling unfair when we lose is normal because we are losing, so we think the casino is cheating us. Even though this is not so, the casino will win in the end, and we as gamblers, will lose. We might be able to win, but it won't be too often, especially if we play a luck-based gambling game where we have to rely on luck to win. And even if we increase the bet amount, it also won't change the result for the better because we need luck again to win. And instead of getting frustrated thinking about the loss and wanting to recover from the loss, it's better for us to stop and end our gambling game so we can manage our emotions so they don't explode.

Definitely, sure it did help me a lot. You just have to realize what you're chasing and if it's worth chasing. Because once you realized that it's going to be worth it then you have to think again and it's okay to gamble but don't make yourself addicted. We're all to have fun and do stuff, sometimes we're for the chase of losses and sometimes we want to earn some and win. It varies and sometimes random ideas come to our mind like being lucky within the day and it's gonna be the day you want to gamble but you're also defensive to yourself. And that is when you're aware that you can't handle the heat of yourself. So, with emotions playing away as you gamble, you have to rethink for so many times so that you won't be problematic once you're dealing with and you have recognized it.
Yes, we all have fun playing gambling, so don't let gambling make us addicted. We must be able to take care of ourselves while playing gambling by always being within our boundaries. And when we can play gambling comfortably and are not tempted to chase victory even though we are in a losing position and finally decide to stop, it means that our self-control is better. That's because we don't think about recovering from previous losses and can also feel that our gambling game has had enough and it's time to stop before we lose self-control. It's better for us to stay conscious keep our emotions in check, and stop playing gambling on time.

Gambling is also like the trading,when the gambler set the tactics for the win.And the winning also occur using that tactics is the most important one.When we made a loss,we should keep secret and play many game to recover the loss.But all the using money must be the free money to avoid of further loss.When the gambler had a good job,it's enough for the regular betting.The emotions should not get interfere in the gambling after the loss by the gambler in a row,need to wait some time for next bet.
But we must realize that gambling is not trading because the more we want to recover losses, it does not guarantee that we can do it and can get back the money we have lost at the gambling table. And it's different when we trade and lose because when we are in a losing position, we can keep trying to recover our losses by looking for other coins that are more profitable.

Meanwhile, young people under 18 years of age usually do not have good enough self-control and are still easily provoked by their emotions, especially if they are playing gambling with their friends. They could have continued gambling at the suggestion of their friends and forgot to stop before things turned bad.

Sometimes it's easier for us to understand something when we learn from experience. playing poker with different people in this way can form mentality and personal character in gambling, in land casino games mental strength is needed which when facing each opponent can provide different tension, especially if we know that our opponent has gambled often to win, which where this can make us give up before starting the game. However, you can only get this sensation at land-based casinos because at online casinos we are not dealing directly with our opponents.

Because of the great impression in gambling, apart from making big bets, we also face opponents who are superior to us and we can win the game. it was a great feat in gambling.
We can get more lessons from playing poker in land-based casinos than in online casinos because by meeting and against other poker players, we can see each other and how they play. And after the game is over, we can evaluate the results of our game to find out how far it has progressed. Or we can learn from someone we know and are in our environment which will be useful to us when we play poker with other friends.

Yes, it feels good to win a poker game, especially if we beat opponents who are superior to us. There is a feeling of happiness at that time; what is important is that we can get useful lessons for developing our poker game.
feels good

~snip~
Obviously, in offline casinos there is nothing to do if we intend to try to guess the hand of our foe.

It can be difficult, but it is not impossible and  rather than a distraction, I think it can be an advantage if done right, specially if one is playing against people who are at our same level of skill. There are people who just can't help and react to good things or bad things.

It is like when you are asking something to a child and you can tell they are lying because how they talk, move or the fact they are looking away, avoiding to directly look at your eyes, as they grow up and become adults, some cannot get rid of those patterns.
At least we can also learn patterns that opponents often use so we can try to use them. It might work when we use it against other opponents, which means we can take lessons while playing poker. But learning well takes practice and time and will take time. People who are skilled at playing poker also need time to become an expert at playing poker.

Looking into their eyes can also be helpful because eyes don't lie but that's difficult because we have to know how other body movements are. Of course, to be able to master the game of poker properly, requires a lot of practice, and being able to get opponents to practice can help us master poker.
2548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sudden Wealth Syndrome (SWS) In Gambling on: August 12, 2023, 11:44:52 AM
No idea that it is called of such thing, I only recognized it as greed. Gambling is believed to be a bad thing for the society but why do people still continue engaging into it? Money. The impression of getting rich in an instant is because of money involved. Some are even having thoughts of going all out which is why they tend to be in huge debt. Many rich individuals have gone broke by doing so. Many average people got pulled below. But some wend from lowest to highest and this is what drives most of the gamblers crazy. Many gamblers percieve this industry as an instant or shortcut to being rich. Remember that our intentions affect our actions.
Sudden changes in a person's financials is never a good thing. A poor person who became rich in a very short time will have difficulties to adapt to the new reality. I think it is probably better to get some professional help in a situation like this so you can prepare yourself for the future. Most people don't do that however. They dive into coke&blow&lambo right away and sadly this is the best way lose their newly found wealth. Some people on the other hand become over-cautious with their money and these people never spend any of it... This is not healthy either. What good is money if you are not right in the head?
Some poor people become rich overnight but fall ill and cannot use their wealth. To respond to it, we must have peace when we get something, in any case, to see what's behind what we get. But getting professional help is possible because they can understand and advise us so we don't get confused when we get something better. And for people who succeed in getting money from the lottery, they really have to be able to use their money well so they can make changes in their lives, and they don't have to buy the lottery again because they already have a better source of income.
Professional help would be the best tool. Unfortunately, not all gamblers in such phase has the courage to do so and some are even doubting their condition. It is all in our minds. The way we see things is what we become. Accept how luck plays in gambling.
It depends on how a person can think of what he can do with that much money. If he is not ready with that much money, he will not be able to use it properly and tends to spend it without thinking about preparing for his future.

No, it's not greed because we don't think about getting more money but it's like we are confused about what to do with that much money. We can't see what is and isn't necessary, so we tend to want to fulfill our desires at that time and feel that with that money, we look "more" than the people around us. That's why we should think about preparing for a better future while we have a lot of money and we should be able to prepare better.

Risk is the common one in the gambling,people are not ready to handle the risk of losing money.But it's essential one to hold the money and use in the gambling after learning of gambling,if you just do gambling without the knowledge it leads to complete loss.So find the legit gambling site before using the gambling was the important one.
People must learn to accept gambling risks if they want to gamble. The risk of losing money is something they will encounter in gambling, so they need to prepare an amount of money that can run out at the gambling table, and they will not be too disappointed because they already know the risks. But if it is borrowing money from the casino, it is highly not recommended because there is no guarantee that we will win even if the money comes from the casino. We may experience a loss with the loan money, so it makes us unable to pay the loan money.

~snip~
Getting used to trying to plan funds for gambling once a week or twice a week will be much better because if they are used to it they will master self-control and have better financial management not to think too much about gambling and gamble only to seek luck when they have more money.
In this case, someone is often forced to continue gambling to catch their losses until they have to borrow money with the thought that they will make money after that to cover previous losses.
Such thinking clearly very bad and it is clear that they themselves are at fault because gambling only provides a place to gamble and have fun but someone thinks is a place to multiply money is clear that it their own fault.
If we want to gamble, we have to set up a special budget for gambling that won't be mixed up with things like expenses, savings, or others. That will allow us to manage how much we can use for gambling and not interfere with needing money elsewhere. This requires financial control and management because in gambling, we will not always be able to get the win. And if we can't always get a win, that means the money we use can run out or we can stop gambling before the money runs out. And they also didn't need to think about recovering their losses because that was difficult.

Without deeper knowledge, the chance is slim to win in both sides, but likewise, if you know how to work with gambling or with future trading the chance is good to make money, not all or there's only a few gamblers who can manage to earn from both gambling and futures but it's not impossible that you can if you equipt yourself by right knowledge and do your research the way that will give you more hints and not just placing your bets or your position basing only from what you heard from someone who call themselves experts.

Your effort to find good venues to learn more is what will help you to win decent from either gambling or future trades.
That means it's all about how we can have in-depth knowledge about both futures trading and gambling. But I still feel that future trading can make more money than gambling, especially if they have analytical skills. Meanwhile, in gambling, one must have knowledge about the stakes, and it seems that sports betting can be a place where he learns to analyze by gathering various information about the game. But it is still easy to make money from both futures trading and gambling, and it takes more than knowledge to succeed.

~snip~
Choosing any of the two or none is one's personal choice, but knowing about both of them is important for everyone and everyone should also know the difference between the two. Futures trading is risky, I totally understand that, but that doesn't mean it should be compared with gambling which is totally based on luck and there is absolutely no influence of anything else on the results of gambling, while the results of your trades in futures trading is also dependent on your knowledge and experience other than the market movements.

So, someone who chooses futures trading because they think it's like gambling, they are wrong, and they might lose more money than they might lose in gambling. But someone who understands what futures trading is and does it the way it should be done, won't lose every time and they can be profitable in the long run which can't be said about gambling.
Yes, it is a personal choice, and we also cannot say that future trading or gambling is better. Maybe those who choose future trading feel that future trading can give better results than gambling as I feel. Even though I think some people will succeed in getting income from gambling, it will not be too much because in gambling, more people will experience losses than gain.

But futures trading is not gambling. Maybe if someone doesn't learn anything about futures trading and only guesses the market's direction in trading, it will be like gambling because it is not based on analysis.

That's supposed to be the path that we gamblers should follow. However, there are gamblers who don't want to learn from their mistakes to improve; they seek shortcuts to success, looking for tipsters that promise consistent winning bets. The question is, is it realistic? The answer is no. If these tipsters could provide consistent wins, they wouldn't have risk themselves. The reason they want us to subscribe is to transfer the risk to us. If they were truly skilled enough, they would keep their analyses to themselves and potentially bankrupt casinos.
If they don't want to learn from their mistakes, that's their choice, but at least they already know that looking for shortcuts won't yield good results. Realistic or not only they know because they live it and we don't do what they do. It is better for us to learn from various sources to have good analytical skills rather than relying on a group of people we do not know well. It will pose a risk of fraud if the group members disappear or run away after they get money from people who subscribe to use their service. By learning to analyze ourselves, we will not depend on anyone and can improve our analytical skills.

Bitcoin is known for being a volatile cryptocurrency and that's how it will always be, we should forget about the cases of instances whereby we experience dip and bull in bitcoin market and we often say much on the bear than when we have the bull, have we even consider it that it was during the bear market that we have fear of missing out to be very common, even some people holding will try to sell if think otherwise, but bitcoin has always been this volatile base on it demand and corresponding supply and the two will always have effect on the market.
Bitcoin has had its volatility for a long time, so it's not surprising that the price goes up and down a lot, and even when the price falls, we wouldn't expect it to hit a lower price. We often talk more about bears because we want to know how deep the price analysis people are doing so we can be prepared to buy at that low price.

You don't need to worry about the price if you are used to volatility. You just need to know when to place a purchase order and leave it until it is filled. Don't worry if the price drops again, maybe even down to a few percent, because that is a bonus for you to buy bitcoin at a low price.

Most of the gamblers hide their gambling habits because they lose money in gambling.
If people would win money from gambling they wouldn't feel shy or guilty to share their gambling habits.
It's only when we lose money we get concerned over what people might think of them and that doesn't happen when we win.
Even if they won, they also kept it hidden from others. Many of them feel uncomfortable telling others that they gamble and win some money because there is still a view that will say that gambling is bad and can cause problems. Well, those people are true, but as long as one can take good care of himself during gambling and keep himself under control to stay out of trouble, I think that's fine too. But hiding or saying that he is gambling is each person's desire, and maybe they are comfortable with hiding their gambling activities from others.

Gambling need of people with more knowledge and self confidence.Because this two people will survive in the gambling as compared to other less experienced people.Some gamblers says the gambling is also like the trading,it need of some tactics to win in a row.But in gambling they say the tactics as the probability and in trading it's prediction of market.Since the salary from the job is guaranteed one,the gambler can use the salary for the source for their gambling with certain percentage.
But we know that there are not always winning streaks, and there are only losing streaks that lead one to the frustration of experiencing them. Perhaps it's true what people say about gambling, like trading, but when we lose, we really lose. My point is that we will have a hard time recovering the money we have lost in gambling and if we keep trying to recover it, we can lose a lot more. And when they use the salary from their job to make money, they may be disappointed because they can lose their money quickly.

I stopped chasing losses long time ago because I have seen on how it has affected me a lot. I am still a gambler but I am no longer addicted and I've got a control to myself. That's a hard part to be managed because with what we're usually seeing is that, there are gamblers that do struggle in maintaining their posture and control when they gamble. They think that they can handle themselves but when they're on the situation, that's when things don't go accordingly to what they have planned for.
That's great for you. I'm glad to hear you've overcome your previous gambling addiction problem. You have to defend it from gambling addiction again, and by looking at what you have experienced, I think you can still avoid gambling addiction. Indeed it is a difficult part to manage, but as long as we want to change it and deal with what went wrong, we can do it. What's important is that now we can better control ourselves when playing gambling and won't be easily carried away by emotions and won't be tempted by any offers.

The technology you are referring to, isn't only limited to AI, because Web3 features and the network on which it operates is inclusive.
Technology has changed everything, including gambling, and with technology, gambling is increasingly popular and makes it easy for people to gamble. And whether this AI will be used in gambling, we can only wait, and perhaps we can find out more about AI that will be released in gambling. But I'm still curious how this form of AI can be incorporated into gambling, but if this AI is used to find more detailed information for sports betting, it looks like it will be very interesting to try. Moreover, we can get more data useful for analyzing the competing teams.

Try to enroll on poker courses if you are really interested on enhancing your skills because that’s the best way to learn from expert instead of watching random video tutorials online because they don’t proper flow of learning unlike courses that guide you properly.

I’m using Pokerstar application to practice poker skills. I agree that most players play recklessly but you will find a decent opponent once you enter high level table.
Thank You. I'll try it later when I have free time. But if the poker course fees are too high, I may reconsider enrolling in the course.

I'm just worried that if I learn poker later, I will spend my time just learning because I'm the type of person who is curious about something I don't know yet Grin

But it's a great idea to try the Pokerstar app. Is the app for mobile or computer?

I think playing poker and being able to learn how to win goes a little bit beyond of knowing specifical people you can play with. It is more about noticing the physical cues, expressions and reactions your foes may have.

Sure thing, one can play against someone you know very frequently, and eventually read his expressions and reactions, but it is different when you face strangers in a tournament. That is the importance of not only knowing the theory of poker, but also the different kind of things people do when they are anxious, eager to wager, etc.

It is not so exaggerate like some movies make it look like, but such cues indeed exist.
It might apply to poker games in offline casinos, but if it is tried in online casinos, I'm afraid it won't be easy because we can't pay attention to all the cues. And that might make us confused and can only guess.

I seem to have noticed some of those cues in movies but don't quite understand them. Sometimes the cues are so subtle that they can confuse or even misinterpret them.

Paying attention to cues from opponents is a difficult thing to do because they sometimes just distract us. And if we don't have much experience, maybe it's hard to beat them.



Apart from everything, watching streamers to get entertainment from them might also entertain us when we don't feel like gambling. Or maybe we can watch it when we're free. It can eliminate boredom because we will see many things from them. But we don't need to follow what they do.

A gambling budget should be made in such a way that losing bets does not cause too much loss. If you are always indulging in gambling while gambling then you must refrain from it for some time in case you lose control. Many times it can be seen that playing gambling puts a special pressure in the brain and a lot of emotion is lost by losing the bet. In such a situation, if a person cannot control gambling then he must refrain from gambling so that he does not break down mentally. And some important things like not gambling excessively and not taking drugs or drinking anything to the max will further lose control. I think if a person is addicted to gambling or drugs in such a way that he should go out to get his control back. Or talking about it with the person's friends so that they can give him good advice only then a person can solve all these problems and bring them under control.
That's why you must manage or have enough budget to gamble and always stay within the limits. If not, you will find it difficult to manage your finances and your family, and when that happens, we can't imagine what we will face with our families. Stopping gambling when you feel that the tension is mounting is a suggestion you can try because stopping and resting can refresh your body and soul, and you won't think about gambling. Do not take drugs because drugs can cause long-term dependence. We have to find the best solution from many references about what we should do when we feel that we have gone too far in gambling so that we don't become addicted to gambling.

yes, I think the main problem is avoiding to see reality as it is
many people approach gambling as a way to make easy money or relying on it as income when in reality it should be entertainment.

if it's too hard for someone to stop gambling they should seek help.
The important thing is that they can open up by telling their problems to people close to them before going to a professional to get help. They need attention from other people close to them so that it is with the openness of gambling addicts that they can see that the people around them are still there for them and are always ready to help them. By doing this, the gambling addict can get help immediately, and if the people around them cannot help, they go to the professionals for more help.

it will not be difficult if we understand how gambling works and it will be easier when we are not yet a gambling addict. for example, like you are a bettor but have no signs of addiction and this method can be used to prevent you from becoming addicted. because if you know how gambling works, of course you not let too much of your money go into gambling and always bet small amounts.
But on average, if someone has started to know gambling, he will experience a gambling addiction again. And even though he is a bettor, he might also experience the same thing because this is a gamble that can make someone go back to gambling easily. But before we become addicted and addicted to gambling, we should be able to feel that we have started to get addicted, so we have to reduce the time we gamble and divert our attention to other things. This is to avoid addiction that can increase at any time, and we can also have good self-control from time to time.

To simplify, you have the choice of gambling either for enjoyment or as a way to earn money. These two approaches involve distinct attitudes towards gambling. When you gamble for fun, you don't necessarily have a long-term objective; you focus on the present and relish fortunate moments. Conversely, when gambling serves as a source of income, consistency is crucial to achieve long-term profitability.

In both cases, discipline remains a key requirement, which already explains a lot.
We should have the choice of gambling for fun than gambling for money because the first choice can avoid the desire to try to win. That will be difficult to get because gambling is not designed always to give gamblers a win. And gamblers should also know that they are better off having fun at gambling to release tension after their daily grind so that they can be more productive when they return to their regular activities. And as long as they don't fall into the trap of returning to gambling, they can return whenever they want.
