In gambling, your staking power does not really matter, but your luck determine your success, I've Won a lot of money like $700 from betting with just  80 cents. While I've lost up to $10 stakes to win even $50. Your luck can shine on your first day of gambling, and you might lose, just like there's no fixed formula for gambling and no definite ROI, so you don't gamble with all your heart and funds. You gamble with  little or no strings attached and at the time you find yourself getting emotional, you just quit before it becomes uncontrollable.

there will never be one suitable formula for gambling, it will always be like that, some say that gambling continuously can increase your chances of winning, but there are also those who say that gambling on certain days can increase your chances of winning.

the most important thing is that you yourself have to regulate the gambling that you are doing, don't exceed your limits, don't let yourself get into debt just for gambling, that will be bad for you.
Yes, managing our gambling time is important so that we don't gamble too often and don't risk losing money more often. But you also don't need to take too big a risk even if you want to win because getting a win from gambling is very difficult, and not many people can get that win. It is important to be able to limit our gambling activities so that we do not run the risk of losing too much money. Always maintaining these limits can give us the opportunity to reduce the number of losses so that we don't have a big risk of losing. We can also win even if we don't take too big a risk because if we are lucky, we can win with just a small bet. Some gamblers have managed to get that win even by betting just a few cents.

So, if you simply approach someone who is addicted to gambling, there's a possibility for you to also do gambling? I don't believe that merely approaching an addicted gambler will put you in the same situation as them. It's more about how a person takes action and communicates with the gambler to make them understand their current situation. This is typically done by people who are trusted by the gambler.
This can happen if the person who approaches a gambling addict offers him or her the experience of gambling while the person who approaches the gambling addict does not have good self-control. If someone sees what a gambler does and can win from a gambling game, they will be curious and want to know what it's like to gamble. He will probably try it when he is home and visits the casino because he will remember the name of the casino site.

But if someone wants to help a gambling addict, they really need to communicate with the gambling addict so that they can understand the situation and can immediately help the gambling addict. But if gambling addicts don't want to admit the fact that they are addicted to gambling, it will be difficult for those who want to approach the gambling addict because the gambling addict will refuse to get treatment for their gambling addiction.

That is belief and of course belief like this can never be separated from the mindset of people out there because belief like this has been attached and embedded for long time.
But actually this belief is their personal matter and whatever it causes is also their own problem, it just shame if beliefs like this are linked to gambling and cause gamblers to make mistakes.
They believe in superstitions that can bring good luck and they become gamblers who bet much more often, this is clearly mistake that should be avoided because the impact that will occur can be very bad.
Even though superstitious beliefs cannot guarantee victory, if they really have more belief then they will never be able to let go or forget the suggestion of believing in such things.
People's beliefs should be changed before their lives really change for the worse because with a mindset like that, people will only continue to gamble every day and even use more money. They think it can give them a win, even though they want to realize gambling is not the kind that will give them a win. And if there are still people who have a mindset like that, they should also start to realize it and try to reduce their gambling activities and instead try to gamble every day. That won't be good for them, especially their finances, because it will use more money for gambling. Meanwhile, they may also experience more losses than before they decided to gamble every day. So this depends on each person's awareness of using gambling because if they can limit their gambling activities, they will not want to gamble every day. That would only make them lose huge amounts of money that would never be recovered.

You just mentioned it, that kind of addiction drives the person to leave his children and proceed to gamble, no one in the right set of mind will be doing that or maybe if in some weird cases maybe there are but in terms of leaving your children where you fully understand the risk that's something unaccepted, hopefully after this incident if ever that father manage to go back and recover his family, act like this would never happen again.

We can't deny the fact that there are addicted people who can take that risk just to please the lust and desire of gambling, they are willing to sacrifice and let things to happen because of malfunctions inside their brains, it's already being dominated of gambling addictions.
Maybe he was an insane person who left his children at home alone. He should have a psychiatric examination to find out how sane he is so that people can also know whether he has a serious gambling addiction or not so that his family can find a solution. We all wonder why he left his children for such a long time and where the other family members were.

Maybe his family members didn't know that he was addicted to gambling, so they left him and his children at home without anyone else besides him. But a father with the heart to leave his children for a long time is not a responsible father, especially if he only goes to gamble. He can gamble after his family members return home so he can leave his children with other family members.

It is because of the negative consequences of gambling by kids that adults are sternly advised not to expose any gambling activity to kids as they're not mentally matured enough to handle the the effects of gambling. I've been able to see kids who unfortunately got exposed to gambling at their very tender age becoming gambling addicts which makes them to be dangerous to themselves and their future as well as anyone around them. For a kid to engage in gambling, he's definitely gonna get addicted when he/she does, the next thing is to steal from people around them just to get funds that'll be used in gambling.
We may not know what negative impacts gambling has on children because the impact will vary from one child to another. We may only know that in the future, these children will often gamble and eventually become addicted to gambling, and it will be difficult to cure if they have been addicted to gambling for too long. This required help from all his family members and also the people around him because he was exposed to gambling at an early age, and it had already entered his mind. These children may carry out illegal activities to get money for gambling, so they will try in every way to have money. Children's memories of what they saw at an early age will continue to be carried over into adulthood, so if they see their parents gambling more often, they may follow suit with their friends.

         -   Yes, you are right. The only scary thing about gambling is that when a gambler has an addiction, there are other casino players who become violent in their actions, sometimes even having suicidal incidents, which is not good.

But if a gambler is responsible and can manage his gambling habit correctly, I think it's fine, as long as there is no addiction in the personality of the gambler at the casino. But if you really feel like letting go of gambling, it's good to do it little by little, as much as you can.
If a person finds it difficult to stop his gambling activities and tends to want to continue gambling, that is a sign that he is starting to become addicted to gambling. With the signs before that, he already feels that something has changed about him. He should immediately try to reduce his gambling activities before everything changes because when someone is addicted to gambling, he will not be able to see other things and will tend just to gamble.

And people who are addicted to gambling will not find it easy to stop their gambling activities. They will instead continue their gambling activities because that has become their priority, and they do not want to do other things. If you are starting to feel that you are too involved in gambling, you should start reducing your gambling activities before you really get too far into gambling.
287  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you invest on this kind of offer? on: February 03, 2024, 12:16:15 PM
If the investment is locked by time before the investor can withdraw his investment, I'm not interested because I have to wait until the time is reached before I can withdraw my investment. If there were profits that could be distributed daily, for example, for 1 month, and the investment was still locked, I might think about it. But it would be even better if the investment were not locked by time so that the investor could withdraw his investment whenever he wanted and get the profit every day. This will make many investors interested in investing because they can withdraw their investment anytime. But it would be better if I kept the bitcoins in my own wallet because I am the one who controls the bitcoins and monitors their use.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction does more harm than mere financial loss on: February 02, 2024, 10:55:37 PM
True, gambling addiction does not only incur financial loss but also social losses.  Friends and relatives will keep their distance from a person who is addicted to gambling.  They will try to avoid these gambling addicts because they don't want to be pestered for borrowing money.  Aside from that being a gambling addict may result in lost credibility and being irresponsible.  So gambling addicts may also loss their family affection and eventually the partner may file a divorce or ask for separation if the partner wants to avoid the responsibility of taking care of the gambling addict.

These are the few possible losses a gambling addict may experience aside from money and losing jobs.
They will not want to approach someone who is addicted to gambling because they are worried that they will fall into gambling. But those who can control themselves well might approach someone who is addicted to gambling in an effort to make their friend aware of his gambling addiction and take him to a professional so he can cure his gambling addiction. This will depend on their concern as friends and their families must also be able to approach family members who are addicted to gambling so that they can cure their gambling addiction. Becoming a gambling addict will indeed make them lose responsibility towards themselves and the people around them, so they don't care about the presence of their family or friends anymore because they only care about their gambling activities.

help him convince him that allocating all his money to gambling is a bad idea, tell him that making money is very difficult, how could he be willing to waste it on gambling, he won't move if he doesn't stop gambling
He must be able to express the fact that gambling by allocating all his money will not guarantee he can win and is a bad idea. He must learn ways to allocate a certain amount of money and use it to gamble properly to avoid losing a lot. If not, besides losing more money, he also has the potential to keep returning to gambling to try to recover his losses, and that means he could become addicted to gambling. When he is addicted to gambling, he will not realize that he has gone too far in gambling and really needs help to get out of his gambling addiction. Before it's too late, we can help him by telling him the truth about gambling so he can realize it.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can a social or casual good guesser make better gambling prediction carrier? on: February 02, 2024, 09:51:35 PM
Anyone is a guesser, all gamblers are predictors, with analysis or not, and this still depends on if they are lucky enough that their calling comes as they predicted, I have seen a big football fan who predicted three matches correctly and he won a lot of money on the games, the next season came and he did the same but this time luck isn't on his side, every prediction went wrong.

It will become very hard to build a gambling career if you don't know how to do strong analysis, and mind you it still doesn't stop you from failing, and since this is all luck dependant, even someone who knows nothing about football can place bet and win a lot of money than someone who've been long in the game.

Whatever you think you are good at in gamblIng, put that aside first and know how to manage your bankroll first, even if you are the king of analyst, you are predicting on luck, which equals to been wrong at times and been right at times, you don't want to throw a lot of money into this thinking you will always be right.
Yes, that's true because many people still make predictions about a match, whether right or wrong. They will always provide predictions based on their analysis or just guesses. But if they guess a match without analyzing it, they will most likely lose if they place a bet because, with analysis, we can find out how big each team's chances of winning are so that we can choose it as a bet.

Indeed, it will not be easy to build a career in gambling if that is their goal because they must have better analytical skills than other people. It requires a lot of experience and learning how to have good analytical skills from various sources. Those who just guess will find it difficult to win, so they must learn many things to know what analysis is good and correct, even if they can't guess accurately.

You are right in saying that it is better to know how to manage one's money than to place bets using our analysis. Money management is very important to avoid losing much money so they will not experience losses too. We won't always be able to guess correctly, so by managing our money, we can avoid big losses.
291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not everyone deserves to hear of your winning in gambling. on: February 02, 2024, 09:39:10 PM
Indeed, telling about gambling success will indirectly encourage gamblers and try as much as possible to follow our style, but on the other hand, people will ignore it because they know the true meaning of gambling, depending on the character of the person who hears it.
And that means we shouldn't share our winning stories with other people carelessly because that could trigger them to follow what we do. If they follow us in gambling but they don't have good self-control, they will only plunge themselves into gambling, and in the end, they will become addicted to gambling. When they still don't realize it, their gambling addiction will get worse, and later, we may be blamed for telling them about our winnings even though we had no intention of inviting them to gamble. It is the fault of those who do not know what needs to be prepared before they gamble and what they must have before gambling. They are fascinated by the wins we get and want to win like us, so that will make them gamble like we do.
292  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2 years old kids alone at home for hours, while the father goes gambling on: February 02, 2024, 05:12:51 PM
The father was clearly irresponsible and doesn't care about the kids, it is either he is so addicted to gambling or he is not ready to let go of his past life for the family that he build.
If they aren't ready to be a responsible parents then they shouldn't build a family, they aren't the only one who would suffer the kids would suffer more than them.
This is true because the father could not look after his children well and instead left them at home. I don't know what was going through his mind that made him have the heart to leave his children without anyone's care. He really needs to cure his gambling addiction before he creates even bigger problems for his family. It is the duty of parents always to ensure the safety of their children, be responsible with them, and not leave them without anyone's supervision. Hopefully, the father will soon realize his mistake and be willing to cure his gambling addiction or reduce his gambling activities and focus more on looking after his children if there is no one other than him at home.
293  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do not gamble with Loan Money~otherwise you will be in danger like me on: February 02, 2024, 04:51:03 PM
Gamble with your own spare money that's the right thing and that's how being responsible but using a loan money then gamble and risk it, that's something where maybe addiction is already triggering, a problem with people who lend money then use it to finance their gambling addiction, it's adds up to their financial problem, once you lose everything and you don't have any means where to earn the money to repay that loan it will messed up your finances.

That's the reason behind using your own money, and it's important that it's a spare where you can let it go and not being attached and regret, to the point that you will wanted to recover it back which can lead you again to deposit more.
That is what we always recommend to many people so that they don't experience more losses and can still gamble responsibly. They will not take too big a risk because that is enough money to use for gambling, and they will not borrow money when the money used has run out. They remember that if they borrow money, they will only lose more money and still have to pay back the borrowed money. It will mess up their finances while figuring out where to turn for the money.

If they can use enough money to gamble, have self-control, and be responsible, they don't need to see a lot of losses because they can prevent many losses from happening. They can even enjoy gambling to entertain them in their free time. They may come back another day when they have free time, and they will gamble as much as before so they won't lose as much.
294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: February 02, 2024, 04:36:04 PM
~snip~
I say something, when we control ourselves and do what we must do at the right moment we have to be aware of what we can do what is in our hands well so that we can be aware that things are different, for example, when we We are in the casino, we can allocate our money willing to lose, yes, it is something that is law, yes, we want to be addicted and we want to be successful. That is the first step, because the second step is to know the game well and try of not losing anything and that is where experience comes in and everything we can apply so that we are successful, the rest things can be affected if we do them wrong or if we do not follow those first steps, when we have mastered that, what we should do It is that the money you are willing to lose, it is not that we lose it all at once, no, we have to make that money pay off, that is the first thing we must do.

After doing and achieving this, it is up to us how to do so that we can be successful, but how? I win and the only thing we have to do is win at the casinos, I don't know about the rest anymore, for me success will always translate into doing things well, for example, if we allocate 30 USD, we must do something per day 4 or 5 dollars, and do that every day, because only by accumulating it is how we can be successful, now if we are people who have a lot to spend, a lot to be willing to have good performance, well things are like that, there is no way Things can turn out badly, if we have a lot of money, then we have to earn a lot more money, but win, not just settle for losing, if we lose then the strategies or our vision of the game is wrong, it is not the correct one, we should do it Things are different so you don't keep falling into the tone of mistakes , success in a casino will always be about making money.
When we can control ourselves well and realize what we must do, we can realize that we have avoided unnecessary problems. When we have allocated a certain amount of money for gambling at an offline or online casino and end up losing, we will not want to continue because we are worried that we will become addicted to gambling. After all, gambling addiction can come at any time. And maybe that's what successful gamblers will do when playing gambling because they already have a lot of valuable experience, so they can understand the situation and act according to it. Everyone who gambles wants to achieve success from gambling, but unfortunately, most people will only fail halfway without being able to continue, and many of them even experience gambling addiction. This must be stopped, and it doesn't need to happen to us because we already have self-control, which we continuously train to improve. We also won't be influenced by anything that comes to us, including if there is an offer that looks attractive. We will just respond as usual and leave the casino because we've had enough gambling.

Getting success from gambling is difficult, very difficult, and not many people can do it and get it. We don't know what people who are successful at gambling do because they don't want to share their secrets with others and only say that we only need to gamble with enough money and always be able to control ourselves well. I think the method you gave might work, but that is if we have good self-control because we know that in gambling, many temptations will come, so we have to be able to anticipate them well and not be tempted by anything. We also don't need to use a lot of money to gamble because that will only make us fall into the temptation of gambling, so we will experience a loss of self-control. That will only make us experience defeat after defeat that we might never have imagined. We can only take good care of ourselves by always controlling ourselves, and if we can control ourselves well, we will become successful people in gambling.
295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 02, 2024, 04:13:12 PM
I myself have experienced that, thinking about doubling my money by gambling in order to pay off debt. Instead of paying off the debt, you are even more confused because there is no money left to pay the debt.

Finally I was frustrated and sold the things I had at home and the valuables I had to pay off the debt. From this incident I learned not to depend on the results of gambling.
You are lucky to be able to learn from your experience so you can avoid it again. And you are right that we cannot think about doubling our money by gambling or paying off debts because when we gamble, we also don't know when we will win. When we lose at gambling, we will become frustrated and continue to think about our debts, which will cause us to experience even more losses.

If that happens and we lose all the money, we won't be able to pay the debt. We can only regret that we have used all our money to gamble. Yes, we must be able to learn from our experiences so that we don't experience them again.
296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours is the best time for a gambler to last while gambling? on: February 02, 2024, 03:58:47 PM
How long a gambler will gamble depends on the individual's desire but it is not right to spend too much time on gambling. The more time you give the more you will lose and slowly become addicted. There is a risk of losing money or valuables in exchange for the possibility of winning. Although most people gamble without any problems some individuals can develop a gambling addiction which can have serious consequences for their health finances and relationships. Better use less time and control yourself also the loss will be less if you set the money limit.
There is no right time to define how long one can spend gambling because it depends on how much money they will use. They can't play gambling for too long if they don't have more allocated funds, especially if they place bets with big money because that can speed up losses and lose all their money faster than expected. And yes, there is a risk of losing money by using more money in gambling, and this is something that many gamblers cannot face, so they will continue to gamble and also deposit more money. The more time they spend and the more money they spend, the more they can lose a lot of money and also have the potential to become addicted to gambling, and when they have a gambling addiction, they will not realize it. That is why we must be able to limit our gambling games so that we do not face unnecessary problems.
297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: February 02, 2024, 03:36:13 PM
Gambling can lead a child into different negative attitudes like telling lies to parents or guardians to extort money from them, selling some valuables to get money, and sometimes making parents/guardians give them allowances and tuition fees again after they have run into problems. Getting a loan as a child is very difficult, especially since some countries prohibit a child from borrowing.
This may have happened to some children who were already exposed to gambling. And because they can't make money yet, they will ask their parents for money, and perhaps they will often lie to their parents when asking for that money. If children gamble too often and experience losses, gradually, the child will become addicted to gambling, and when he is addicted to gambling, he may do other bad activities such as stealing or even asking for money from his peers. I often see underage children doing this with their friends, and even though they have been handed over to their parents, they still return to their previous habits, where they will hold other friends at gunpoint. Those who are addicted to gambling will only think about how they can gamble and have money to gamble.
298  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: February 02, 2024, 03:13:13 PM
These steps may be very different depending on the site and how it works. Some users may think it's too hard or take too long, while others may find it easy and have successfully claimed gift cards for friends. At every game site you can find, it's important to read and fully understand the referral program rules. How easy it is to get bonuses can depend on the bank's rules, the action of the person who sent you, and the amount of money you need to deposit. People who have used referral awards and liked them are encouraged to share their thoughts. This is good for people who like to gamble.
People who find it too difficult or take too long to get referrals may not have found the right way for them, so they haven't seen any signs of success after spreading their referral link. This depends on the methods used by each person who uses the referral link, and these methods will be different for each person. That's why each person needs to look for the right ways to spread their referral link to succeed in getting people who want to join using their referral link. If many people want to join, they can get a commission bonus from the site they are promoting, and the more or more they share their referral link, the more people will join. People need to try various methods they have discovered to find the right one for them, which takes time.
299  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you preffer your dealer talkative or not? on: February 02, 2024, 02:52:05 PM
What do you think about this all? Do you like your dealer talkative or not?
And if you prefer the dealer being talkative, would you mind if they made up some story just to keep talking? Or would you prefer even that over silence?
I am too easily distracted and don't really want to be making small talk with a random stranger while my attention is on gambling. If I was on a losing streak I would be annoyed with these phony, contrived interactions. I have not tried playing casino games with a live dealer because it is not really very appealing for online gambling.
You might not be too interested in a dealer who talks too much because it can disturb your concentration while gambling. This is normal, so you need to find a dealer who doesn't talk too much so you can focus on your gambling game. You should not try to play casino games with live dealers because most of them talk a lot while the game progresses. I've seen dealers like that in card games or monopoly games, and I'm okay with the dealer talking too much. I don't get annoyed either.

It's interesting how many people hold onto superstitious beliefs when it comes to gambling. They convince themselves that if they perform certain actions or follow certain rituals, their chances of winning will increase. However, this is essentially just a form of manifestation. While it's true that positive thinking can have an impact on our lives, it's important to remember that luck is also a major factor in gambling. So, while it's okay to have a little fun with superstitions, we shouldn't rely on them to guarantee a win.
Yes, that is true, and there are still many people who believe in superstitious things. We also can't blame them or tell them to stop believing in superstitious things because they don't want to let go of those superstitious things. They believe that believing in these superstitious things can give them the opportunity to win the gambling game even though they don't know whether they can actually win or whether they will still lose. They play gambling where it will be difficult for them to win, so they should also know that believing in superstition will not increase their chances of winning. They will see that the reality will be the same and experience greater losses because believing in superstitious things like that will make them self-confident. They will not see that their chances of winning are almost non-existent and will not think about stopping their gambling game.
