2641  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: November 05, 2023, 08:46:49 AM
I don't think that only the loneliness can make a people addicted to gambling. In my opinion people get addicted on this kinds of things for their own cause. They fall into addiction for their own fault or mistakes. And if anyone say that he become addicted to gambling for the cause of his loneliness then I will say he is lying. And in case of your friend there are many signal are already done by him that he is getting addicted or already addicted gambler from the before.
Loneliness, boredom and also not having anything to do are one of the factors that cause someone to continue coming to gambling sites to entertain themselves and have fun in casino game.
But such feelings will never make person addicted to gambling because he is only looking for activities that are fun and can be used as cure for feelings of boredom.
And when they are addicted it is because they have ambitions or other desires that they are truly pursuing in order to get it at any cost, so that every time they have money they will definitely come and come again even though they have suffered repeated defeats.
Things like this usually happen and they are too happy to pursue their ambitions, making them forget that the initial goal of getting into gambling was to eliminate boredom in solitude without any other activities that could entertain themselves.
Yes those with high aspirations and high levels of greed are more likely to become addicted. Also many factors may contribute to gambling addiction including desperation for money, the desire for thrills and highs the social status associated with being a successful gambler and the recreational environment of the mainstream gambling scene. There are many recreational situations other than gambling to relieve loneliness it depends on the individual's own will to become addicted to gambling.

It's not other than the greed that comes because from the beginning they have the wrong perspective on this gambling, they are too serious in seeing or interpreting what is meant by the opportunities that exist in gambling, even though on the other hand there is absolutely no guarantee for anyone to 100% be able to take advantage of these opportunities by winning and also absolutely nothing is certain. All rounds in gambling are random and the only thing that can determine when you win is luck, nothing more than that. But strangely why they are so ambitious in pursuit of victory, it is quite strange as well as the reason. And the point is that it is certain for anyone who is too serious in gambling and even by applying greed, it is clear that they will definitely experience addiction.

Of course, several other factors are also very influential and can cause someone to be addicted to gambling, as you said and for the problem of money of course it can also greatly affect, such as those who are wrong in allocating money with a large enough amount and they cannot be accounted for, meaning that for those who put money quite large and more than they can lose it means that they expect victory by putting hope in the money, of course that is one of the traits possessed by addicts and for them as well as potential addicts. It's better to find other alternatives in my opinion.
2642  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Out of curiosity, how much you wagered recently? on: November 05, 2023, 08:31:36 AM
I saw people wagering a lot of money, but this guy took it to some higher levels... How can we compete in some wagering wars and competitions against players who wager so much? Do we even have a chance? Smiley
I wager just little amount of money anytime that I am gambling. One thing that you should have in mind is to never follow what other people are doing because we are not rich the same in life. $500 may be the weekly earning of some people, but this may be like $1 or less in amount  of money to some other people. While some people will earn $500 or more in just every single minute. Wager with the amount of money that you can afford to lose.

That's better my friend because in my opinion this is just a gambling activity that is not at all recommended to prioritize in your life, getting involved in a small amount is better because indirectly you assume and agree that gambling is just an activity for profit and to just try your luck. I will not focus too much on how much their weekly or monthly income is and certainly even if for example the amount of your income is quite large then it is better to budget only a few percent on your gambling, and yes it is true that we should not think of following others, whether it is in terms of the method or the capital they allocate to gambling, of course on the other hand if your income is much smaller than your desire to allocate a budget to gambling because you want to follow the way like others then obviously it will only cause some financial problems to come to you.

500$ for a rich person might not mean much but for us it might cost us a few weeks of living, so the point is like you said, we should be able to allocate a budget that we can be responsible for whatever the outcome is, it's better for prevention and with that I say that you are a pretty responsible gambler.
2643  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: November 05, 2023, 08:02:41 AM
This often happens to people who work at night, like security guards or employees who watch over companies during the late hours. It can get really dull during the quiet night if there's no other entertainment, but it can also be a bit challenging. gambling might become a common pastime for those working at night, as long as they don't draw too much attention from their boss as long as the situation remains safe. It seems like their boss is sound asleep at home, so there's no chance of a surprise inspection or getting fired for being active at night.

For those who work during the daytime, they might have to hide their gambling activities or do it during lunch breaks. the most important thing is to be careful with security cameras and also to be mindful of the money you put into gambling. Don't let all your hard earned money from a day's work go to gambling alone. that's not a wise move.

But once you're working at night and gambling at the same time, there's a tendency that it will affect you either the work or gambling because this may results to out of focus. I agree that working at night is not that strict when it comes to your daily productivity and working behavior but it depends on what type of job do you have, example a Customer service representative, you aren't able to gamble while working because there's a required productivity/vall log counts needed and a lot of pending task that you need to be done. I suggest to focus on your work and gamble once you're shift is done.

Well that's right of course guys, I don't think it's a good option for them to gamble while doing other activities such as work, it's obvious that even though they may think that they will only be involved in a little gambling at that time but still it will be quite annoying especially if the final result is not what they expected, and after that they will usually lose the spirit to do or continue work activities. Honestly, I don't really care how much money they put into gambling and I wouldn't care if they gamble just to get rid of boredom when their night job doesn't really occupy them because as you said, they can lose focus and enthusiasm.

In my opinion, whatever their job is, even though it may not be too strict in the sense that they have enough time to gamble, this gambling activity is really not recommended, after all there is still plenty of time for them to gamble, whether it's when they get home from work or fill the time during work holidays. So the point is that we must really be able to divide time according to its portion, if you are doing an activity then focus on that one activity and don't think about doing anything else whatever it includes gambling, it's better.

Hoffenheim could equalize in the second half and the 2 goals they created were only 2 minutes apart, in the 56th minute and in the 58th minute. But in the 70th minute Leverkusen could regain the lead through Grimaldo's goal as well as the second goal he scored in this match.
Entering the extra minute, I thought Leverkusen could maintain this lead, and it would be a shame if they had to concede again and make the score equal again. They must focus in crucial minutes like this, otherwise the victory that is already in sight will disappear in an instant.

Leverkusen won 3-2 against Hoffenheim and another big win and they are still undefeated. I think they can win the league if they continue with this tempo. They dropped their guard today but were able to win in the end and now have 5 more points more then Bayern Munich that goes away to Dortmund.
Yes they managed to win the match with perfect points, 3 points. This is the result they were hoping for and makes them firmly at the top of the standings for the time being. Although Hoffenheim can provide quite a fierce resistance, but they can finish this match with a victory. Xabi has really taken this club to a better direction and now they even occupy the top of the table, which is usually occupied by Bayern Munich. If they can maintain their current performance, then it is not impossible that Xabi will be the coach who will break Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga so far.

The points difference between these two clubs is 7 points with Al Nassr still having 1 game they haven't played this week. Looking at Al NAssr's opponents this week it looks like they will win the match and make their point difference reduced to 4 points. 4 points is a pretty tight point difference considering the remaining matches in the SPL are still very much. And also the meeting between these two clubs can make the situation change. The meeting of these two clubs is scheduled to take place in the next month and it will definitely be an interesting match.
Al-Hilal has moved 7 points clear at the top of the Saudi Pro League. But it's still too early to make the final call. Just like Arsenal could have won the EPL last season.

Al-Nassr is in the second position, with a game in hand. They are on the rise, and who knows, they might just surprise us? Al-Nassr has to win their next game, by the way!

The league is gradually becoming more exciting.
Yes it's like what I said before, that there are still many opportunities for Al Nassr to catch up with their points from Al Hilal, especially since these two clubs will still meet.
All possibilities can still happen, and the possibility is not only for Al Nassr to catch up with Al Hilal, but Al Hilal itself can stay away from Al Nassr's pursuit.
Apart from that, the way to forget other clubs who are also competitors in the standings, we cannot underestimate names like Al Tawoon and Al Fateh for example and other clubs that are in the top flight now.

One of the problems when the World Cup will be held in the US is that it is difficult to get a visa there. I think there will be policies that will ease access to watch the World Cup live. FIFA will also definitely find a solution to this, because one of the things that will make the World Cup lively is the presence of many people watching from abroad. If access to it is still difficult then don't be surprised when the next World Cup will not be as lively as usual.
The designated country must also be more able to adjust, because this is a party that everyone is always waiting for.

I'm not a lawyer and I don't have much information about taking a visa to other countries but from what I can see people usually complain about taking a visa to the USA because it's much harder for them compared to the other countries.
I think America should make special rules for the World Cup visitors in this country and they should understand they need to make it easier for people to get a visa when they need to watch the World Cup games in 2026.

\Yes as I said before, there should be a relaxation of policies when the World Cup takes place, because easy access to it will also have a positive impact on those who act as hosts. There is always a negative impression when the World Cup is held in a country, the World Cup that has passed also has its own impression, be it negative or positive. But don't let things like this become something that lasts later, because if access is difficult when going there and there is no policy that will make it easier for the audience, it will certainly give a negative impression and I we will imprint it for years.

Without realizing it, our conversation about group A is a very intense one, and for now it trumps our conversation about group F, which is considered a group of hell in the Champions League this season. I think it's because Manchester United are in this group which has an erratic performance from every match they play.
Apart from that, they are also a big club that has experienced great success in the Champions League, especially when they were still managed by Sir Alex Ferguson. It seems that we also miss their promising play.

Already 10 minutes in the game and Leverkusen leading 1 nil with a opening goal from Florian Wirtz. With the presence of outstanding players in Leverkusen, achieving greater heights shouldn't be a problem for them. With the likes of Victor Boniface and Florian Wirtz in the frontlines of Leverkusen, tell me, whose defendlines will be intruded easily? Pellegrino Matarazzo is experienced but the facts remains clear, his side can not match up to the level of Bayer Leverkusen who are on fire this season. They're unbeaten regarding the records, Xabi Alonso reinforce Leverkusen to be sensational and brilliant against oppositions.
It's been half the match for Hoffenheim vs Bayer Leverkusen and there is still no reply from the home team so for now Bayer Leverkusen is still ahead with two goals just scored in the 45+1 minute and there is a possibility for Bayer Leverkusen to continue to increase their lead. again in the second half with another goal. Because this time the game was completely controlled by Bayer Leverkusen even though they were the visiting team in that match.
Hoffenheim could equalize in the second half and the 2 goals they created were only 2 minutes apart, in the 56th minute and in the 58th minute. But in the 70th minute Leverkusen could regain the lead through Grimaldo's goal as well as the second goal he scored in this match.

After this match, Girona will top the La Liga title before Real Madrid and other teams play their matches, which means Real Madrid has to win their match to overtake them now because they have two more goals to lead the La Liga table. Girona is surprising so many people this season because they have been winning matches without errors or mistakes, they take all their matches seriously, and they have won 10 matches and drawn just one and lost one so far this season. If other teams are not serious, Girona might play in the Champions League next season.
Girona look like they will be able to successfully set the record this season of either winning the La Liga or qualification for the Champions league like Napoli did in the Serie A, with how well they are playing and keeping the pressure on big teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. They developed into the demands of the game because Osasuna is not an easy team and they were finally able to finish the game with four goals after a very close contest for dominance. Real Madrid will welcome Rayo Vallecano in a must win game.
To talk about winning La Liga, I think it's still too early to talk about it even though the opportunity is still open to them with the good performances they have shown. But to be in the Champions League it will be a greater opportunity, because they only need to be in 4th place at least to get a place in the Champions League.
The victory this week makes them even more promising, they did fall behind when entering the second half, precisely in the 55th minute, but in the 71st minute they were able to equalize and could turn 2 goals ahead in the last 10 minutes.

Mappe is a player who wants to leave PSG and he has tried to do that even during the previous seasons but he usually fails. I think The fact about Mbappe is we can't say anything until the last minute when he chooses his next destination.
Now other than Real Madrid, there are other teams like Liverpool thy also want to buy this player.

We've seen no less drama with Mbappe switching clubs. Every season we've seen Mbappe make a lot of plays about changing clubs but no matter how much Mbappe plays, he ends up staying at PSG. During the last transfer season Mbappé was rumored to move to Real Madrid but he decided to stay one more season only to leave the club as a free agent but due to pressure from the club he extended his contract with the club again. Mbappe's contract extension with PSG remains a question whether he will stay at PSG again or change his club in this transfer window. As he has a contract extension until 2025, he will either have to stay at PSG long-term or change clubs. As Mbappé wants to change clubs, he must make the right decision next season.
He decided to stay at Paris Saint Germain because he respects his contract with Paris Saint Germain which has given him many privileges. And one more thing that made him stay, because Paris Saint Germain also did not want to release this plyer because they still needed him in the squad.
Mbappe's desire to leave is very high, and I heard that there is a special agreement he made with Paris Saint Germain regarding his future. Yes, I heard that Paris Saint Germain are willing to let Mbappe go next season. But I don't know for sure if that's what happened, or if it's just a rumor.

I don't know, but it really gives me pleasure to watch Al Hilal. Maybe they spent less money than some clubs, but they are doing great things in terms of football and games. They won a penalty very early and Mitrovic scored the penalty goal into the left corner. On the contrary, Al Hilal's other goal was scored at the end of the match in extra time, and Al Dawseri scored this goal.

Al Hilal has been winning for four matches, I think the difference between them and Al Nassr is not small, even though it is early in the season. Likewise, Nassr started the season very badly, but Al Hilal has already impressed the audience with the play it has played since the beginning of the season.
The points difference between these two clubs is 7 points with Al Nassr still having 1 game they haven't played this week. Looking at Al NAssr's opponents this week it looks like they will win the match and make their point difference reduced to 4 points. 4 points is a pretty tight point difference considering the remaining matches in the SPL are still very much. And also the meeting between these two clubs can make the situation change. The meeting of these two clubs is scheduled to take place in the next month and it will definitely be an interesting match.

Lazio lost to Bologna by a narrow score, and in this match, there were only 3 shots on target in total, and this defeat again ruined Lazio's three consecutive wins which were predicted to win but Bologna managed to get 3 points allowing them to pass Lazio's position in the standings.

~snip~
The result is the same as I previously predicted and I also said that only 1 goal would be scored. But who would have thought that it was Bologna who won this match with a difference of 1 goal and it seems that Lazio failed to take advantage of the opportunity to overtake Napoli this week. Actually, Lazio had a chance to equalize the score or make a comeback in the second half, but considering that this match had very few opportunities, with 1 goal, whoever gets it deserves to win and that belongs to Bologna.
I thought the match would end in a draw and it turned out that Bologna could win this match with a narrow score.
Both clubs played very carefully in this match, they did not want to play too rashly and made the match statistics not so many opportunities were created. In fact I think this is a lucky victory that Bologna got with almost the same match statistics from the two clubs competing.
With this result Bologna can overtake the position of Lazio which was previously above them in the standings, and now reversed.
2653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 04, 2023, 11:34:15 AM
Newcastle vs Arsenal is probably the most interesting match for me... Especially after Arsenal lost to West Ham and Newcastle beat Man U... I don't know who can be the winner today, because Arsenal spent less energy in the last game... I think both teams will score...
For this week, the Newcastle vs Arsenal match is the only one that is interesting and even though there are other matches such as Spurs vs Chelsea, I am not interested at all and it is certain that Spurs will win that match again. Talking about Newcastle vs Arsenal, both teams were eliminated in the EFL Cup and they certainly won't mind this to focus more on the EPL and Champions League. Moreover, after the EPL match, these two teams will still continue their Champions League match next week so that both teams will save the energy of their core players.

I think in this match, whoever wins first with a difference of 2 goals means they don't need to bother to win and in fact I quite like Arsenal to win rather than Newcastle. But Newcastle also has a target to shorten the distance with Aston Villa. So instead of betting on one of the teams winning, it's better to bet on the BTTS result as you said.

Another interesting game will be first today, it's Fulham vs Man U... On the one hand Fulham should be easy for Man U, but on the other hand they have their next match in the Champions League, where their position is not very good... So I think that both teams will score here too, but I can't say who will win...
Arsenal are favored in this match, but the difference is not big and it is a difference that will be very likely to be turned around by Newcastles as the host. The same statistics of the last 5 matches they played are the same 2 draws and 3 wins. It is quite difficult to predict who will win a tight match like this and a draw is a very possible result, I also think that way. But I will see how they play in this match because if one of them has a drop in form then he might be the one who will lose.

There is no doubt about the quality of players in Paris Saint Germaine. Compared to all other teams in the French League, Paris Saint Germaine has a much better station and they have more expensive players in the team. In fact, Paris Saint Germaine's team is worth much more than the other teams and if you compare them with a team like Montpellier you can then understand PSG should even score more goals against this team.
This is quite clear if we compare it with Montpellier, but this season PSG still has to continue to improve their wins in the following matches in order to distance themselves from Nice, because if Nice can win tomorrow's match which will take place at home. PSG will still drop to runner-up position so this season PSG doesn't have to be complacent about the quality of the players they have because any mistakes can still be detrimental to PSG this season.
NIce vs Rennes will be an interesting match and the results of this match will be very influential for Nice, because whether they will return to the top of the standings or not. Rennes are not doing well after the previous 3 matches they had to get negative results. But surely they want to give Nice a defeat in this match even though they will be the visitors.
If Rennes want to get points, then they have to improve their defense even better, because Nice is not productive enough, so they can take advantage to at least hold Nice's draw.
2655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cash out or keep playing? on: November 04, 2023, 10:37:02 AM
Even experienced ones let their guards down.

So this incident happen to all ages regardless of experience as well. If we let our guards down and we're on the peak of the time as we gamble, we definitely going to miss it.

If you don't want to end your day with a loss, always take the profit with a priority that you will not let it happen to you because of the past experiences you made and keep yourself reminded with that.
It is still a sign of poor gambling habits that will make someone not know when to stop. So I believe the real experience should show when to take a break after a major win. You cannot say you have experience but unable to cashout a good win, what then is the experience?

It's not other than the habit arises because their point of view on gambling is too excessive, always assuming that there will be a much bigger win, when in fact the final result will not always be in accordance with what they expect, honestly I have experienced something like this and I am very tired of the final conditions that are always disappointing when I try to behave greedily. Well that's right, I quite agree with your assumption about experience, therefore professional gamblers can always prevent the possibility of unwanted things happening, none other than that because they have a pretty good experience in gambling, meaning they have experienced things or conditions like that, So when they managed to get a win, they thought it was better to rest and withdraw the money from the win, because if they were greedy then they were very likely to experience things that were not wanted, instead of getting a bigger win but what happened was that all the previous winnings were gone again, I think that's a strong reason why we shouldn't be greedy.

A lot of gamblers have not come to the reality that gambling is a game of probabilities. If it enters in your favour, use it very well because you cannot guarantee if it will stay like that for long. Missed opportunities tend to be more painful than no opportunity so winning and giving it back can be devastating.

Just like you stated, the best is to take profit whenever there is a major win. It is also fine to take a break and enjoy the winning.

True, most of the time lately I see some people who come to gambling with the aim of making money, one of the reasons may be because they have seen other people who managed to get a big win, even though on the other hand this is just a probability activity which is basically nothing more than a possibility that they cannot necessarily get because there is absolutely no guarantee in it. Therefore I think they should really change their wrong mindset, yes I understand that there are opportunities in gambling but remember that the percentage of defeat is always higher than victory, so it is not uncommon for people to say that don't overdo it when gambling, that's because as I said, there is no guarantee and certainty whatsoever, it's just a chance and doesn't mean you can get it. And also on the other hand you should not be ambitious to return the loss or chase the victory, it is better to let go of the amount that has been lost because there is no definite return, and if you continue to try to pursue it it will only increase the number of your losses.

Indeed, it's best, if you have won, it's better to get out quickly and withdraw all the winnings for you to enjoy, I say it's not a real victory if you can't enjoy it at all, it's better for prevention.

What is the most money you have ever lost in one session? could be land base casino or crypto casino.

mine was $200,000 on Stake.com 2 weeks ago
I don't know how true it is, but that's really a big amount of money. Why should you gamble with that amount of money? Don't you think the risk that you took was kind of high? Losing that amount of money is kind of much to me. I just hope losing that amount of money won't have any impact on you. I am a frequent gambler, but I just use a small amount to gamble always. No matter how much I lose, it doesn't affect me in any way because I just use a small amount to gamble. I can't really remember the highest amount I lost on gambling, I don't really take note of things like that.

That's a very unreasonable amount, I'm also quite curious whether that amount is true or not, but well we forget about the numbers and we will focus on discussing why it can happen. If there is indeed someone who has allocated such a large budget in my opinion it is not an ordinary person, I am sure he is one of the millionaires, such an amount could be for my basic needs for several years, and to be honest I also never imagined what if I was in the position of losing with such a large amount, maybe it's no longer stress that I experience even maybe I will try actions that are beyond reason.

Yes, I also think that hopefully that amount doesn't have too bad an impact on his life, and if you look at his statement it seems to be true that the person is not an ordinary person, he is one of the millionaires in my opinion, but even so, I still think it is not a good action and something to be proud of. This incident can be a valuable lesson for all of us, don't look at the amount of money but look at the impact, so of course like you said if you really want to gamble then it's better to allocate an amount that you can be responsible for whatever the final result is, don't expect more because obviously this is just an activity for fun and not at all for earning, so the point is we must remain firm on self-control.
2657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner needs your advices in gambling. on: November 04, 2023, 09:41:28 AM
That's simply not true, no. The decisive factor is how you feel about gambling. As long as you see it as fun and a pastime, gambling has many positive effects, from social contacts (in chats or in person in a casino) to the joy of possible winnings.

It is only when gambling drifts into an addiction that problems arise. However, this applies to many areas of life, from alcohol to computer games and sports.

I quite agree with your statement, although basically people's perspective on gambling is very negative but they only conclude from one side and do not know at all what positive impacts can be obtained from gambling, although yes I would also not fully say you are right but the impact of gambling really depends on how the person views and does it. Honestly, I will not blame the casino at all but maybe it is more appropriate to blame the gamblers themselves, after all, there are also many gamblers who do not complain about their gambling involvement, it is because they gamble the way they should and also the way they look at gambling, always not overdoing it and only considering that this is a place just to seek pleasure through some sensations that they get and do not think at all about earning money.

  Gambling will really become a problem when someone brings the wrong mindset to the involvement, it is obvious and as you said one of the most feared bad effects is addiction, because if you are already in that phase it will be difficult to get out, and it is not uncommon for some cases to report that one of the people did things that were out of control because of the factor of addiction, for example crimes such as theft.
Numerous individuals view gaming negatively, but there is significantly more to it than that. Losing money isn't the only thing that matters; it's also the thrill, the fun, and the feelings. Incredibly amazing

People's attitudes are the real, huge problem. An addiction is a bad result that can make you do things you can't control. Players are to blame, not the casino. Individuals who gamble sensibly, namely those who understand their limitations, behave properly, and view the activity as a form of fun, usually have a good time. Individual duty, knowing the dangers, and knowing when to leave are important. Absolutely crucial. In order to avoid problems, it's important to approach gaming with the right attitude. Realizing how a change in point of view can completely alter an experience is truly amazing

Yes, as in general, gambling is very negative in the eyes of society, in my opinion, this view is not entirely wrong because maybe people see from their conclusions that lately many have suffered financially as a result of gambling itself, even though yes, we are like exchanging money for thrills, it doesn't matter but the problem is when we overdo it in terms of allocating money for something that we can get by only allocating a small portion of the money we have.

Of course, as I said above, anyone especially gamblers who experience a loss has no right to blame the casino, because the casino is just a place provider, and you are playing, so only you can create any impact at the end of the game whether you win or lose. You should not blame something that should not be blamed because it is clearly the result of the way of gambling and your wrong and excessive point of view in seeing this gambling. After all, on the other hand, there are also many gamblers who are ordinary and do not experience significant impacts like you, that's because they have the appropriate involvement. I think one of the keys to keeping you safe and secure is that you have to change and clear up your wrong mindset.

Gambling doesn't have any benefits, I can agree with you when you say the health benefits of gambling is when you win a larger amount of money in gambling, but when you don't win money their is some certain things you feel that causes health disorders in human beings and its caused by gambling, when you lose in gambling it will make someone who don't summon courage to be depressed and also have mental disorder because of loss of gambling, so since I have born I have not seen the health benefits of gambling and especially when you lose gambling frequently, gambling causes thinking and also stroke when you lose much in gambling and secondly when you use the money you are supposed to use for another thing for gambling.

I also probably can't list the positive aspects of gambling other than the fact that it helps to produce dopamine in a fairly calm and safe environment. Of course you can get dopamine in many other ways, but if you get it by betting or playing slots in your free time and don't cause anyone problems, that's your right. We are all free to choose how we get the happy hormone.

Yes, I quite agree with your assumption, basically we cannot know about the positive aspects that can be obtained by each gambler, because only they know and feel the impact that they think is good, and maybe one of the more likely among others is in terms of dopamine that you mentioned, the pleasure in gambling does make it possible to increase the production of dopamine in the brain which has no other role to improve their mood to be more calm and comfortable.

Of course, I think there are still or even many other alternatives that can increase the production of dopamine in the human brain, such as finding other activities that also have the same impact of pleasure but without risk, actually there are still many other options that they can choose, but unfortunately they narrow the alternative opportunities with some unreasonable reasons. Although yes, I understand that everyone has the freedom to make choices, but try to think more rationally and consider before you make a decision, and if you are ready with all the impacts that will make you uncomfortable then go ahead, one thing is that regret will always come at the end.

That's right, so if you've managed to get a win then it's better to leave, I'm also always like that, leave and then enjoy the money from the winnings and leave a little for gambling next time.
Have you ever felt like you still really want to play after getting a big win? Of course this is the most common feeling experienced by every gambler, including me. I of course know that by stopping and exiting I can avoid the possibility of losing or losing my winnings, but it's not always easy to control my urges especially if I really think that this is a lucky day for me.

Going out and enjoying the win is wise advice, but I have to admit it's never easy. Some gamblers have to be willing to lose all their winnings just because they don't want to stop after winning something, it's definitely greed but that's the reality. IMO, many gamblers don't have good control even if they have put together the best possible plan.

Yes for that problem I also understand, it is quite difficult to get out and go to secure the winning money when we still really want to play, I also said it was just the conclusion of the better thing to do, and not that I also always managed to do it. I say it's greed that's pretty hard to avoid when you're at a high level of confidence after winning, maybe most of them will continue playing in the hope that hopefully they can get a much bigger win, but I say the end result will not always match friends, although yes there are some who may be very lucky and manage  to get it but usuallly the end result is always disappointing when we bring greed.

That is indeed quite wise advice as I said above, I also understand doing it will not be as easy as turning the palm of the hand, but at least they know that this is indeed the best way as one of the most effective ways of prevention. I just hope that this statement can make one of them especially those who read my statement can consider well, although it is quite difficult but I think there is no harm if they try once in a while and then get used to it, it will be very useful.

The reason why many gamblers are very reluctant from cashing out after huge winnings and would prefer to keep playing is because they do feel that for them to win massively that day, it means that it's their lucky day to win so it'll be better to keep playing and winning more instead of cashing out.
However, sometimes, in their quest to win more, they tend to lose everything they have initially won and which some people do tag greed. So in my own opinion, I think it's better to cash out and enjoy the winning instead of staying back and playing more

Yes that's one of the more likely reasons why they go overboard like that by applying greed. I understand their feelings, they must think that they should take advantage of this opportunity to be able to get a much bigger win, but the problem is that are you really sure that the next round will be in your favor? no one can be sure and there is no guarantee at all that the final result will be able to match what you expect friends, gambling results will still run randomly and you will really be able to get it if indeed at that time you get luck again to make bigger. But the fact is, it is not uncommon for some people to regret it because it turns out that the final result is far from expectations, as you said. Instead of getting a much bigger win but what happened was that all their previous wins were lost because they were too chasing something that was clearly not in their favor.

Honestly, I've experienced that a few times when I tried to be greedy, and now I'm pretty tired of putting too high expectations on the final result. So it's better to always be firm on your precautions, nothing but that will be useful so that in the final session you won't regret too much when the final result really doesn't match your expectations, that's all.

Well ...I think it's time for Ten Hag to actually leave United because this team has lost all identity it had as a big club and if they will keep Ten Hag , United won't even be a top 7 team by the end of the season. More than this , I'm sure they won't even move further in Europa League as UCL is already game over for them and the problem is that we are still early in the season and United already failed on all categories  Grin Grin. I also think that some certain players are not for Premier League intensity and a few transfers would do good in winter.  Smiley
Before Erik Ten Hag came to Old Trafford, Manchester United had actually lost their identity or identity as one of the big clubs in the English Premier League and even in Europe. The previous coach also did the same thing and could not bring Manchester United to be even better. Manchester United miss the figure of Ferguson who has long retired.
At first I saw a good vision shown by ETH, but over time it turned out to be the same as their previous coach.
Will the management sack ETH quickly? that is a difficult question to answer, because I have not heard the statements they have issued so far.
