If you can practice that then it's good for your gambling participation, but not many can do that, as there's  greed inside us that really tough to compete with, instead of stpping while you have the chance, you'll push for more thinking that it was your lucky day, end result most likely will return all those money to the house including your deposit.
We must try to limits ourselves when playing gambling to prevents from borrowing money from other people because that can makes us in trouble. We can learn about discipline to limits our money to prevents more losses so we can still have money if we wants to playing gambling in the next days. If we have discipline, we can holds ourselves from greedy and always knows how to limits our money to playing gambling because gambling is just part of enjoy our life.

If we knows about limiting our money in gambling, we will not try to borrows money from other people. We will always remember that never borrow money to playing gambling to avoids the problems that can occurs to us. It's enough to use some limits money to playing gambling as we don't use gambling to makes money.

To avoid any additional problem after playing gambling, we all know the risk when playing and if you barrow money where you don't have the resources to cover your loans, that's another problem when you lose, better to play and enjoy and not to play with more burden and regrets after playing, it's more on your self-control and how you manage your finances.

keep in mind that gambling always have the risk behind and there's no assurance that luck will be alway at your side, at most it won't and you just keep losing more.

Parang hirap ang Dallas dito at mukang makukuha na ng Celtics and championship this year ah hehehe.

Sang-ayon ako dyan. Prediction ko talaga noon is tanging Denver lang at Miami makapagpigil sa Boston this season. Saktong-sakto injured si Butler ng Miami at na-upset ang defending champions. Pero well-deserved rin ang Boston makakuha ng kampyonato. Grabe, sinundan ko talaga journey nina Brown at Tatum. Bilib na bilib ako sa kanila noong injured si Kyrie at Hayward pero umabot pa silang game 7 laban nina Lebron James sa eastern finals.

Tingnan natin anong adjustments ang gagawin ni Jason Kidd sa pangalawang laro nila. Tulad ng sinabi ni Tatum, marami pa raw dapat trabahuin dahil ganito rin naman ang sitwasyon nila 2 years ago laban sa GSW na nanalo sila sa unang laro pero natalo rin sa series.

Oo kaya mabuting mag focus na muna sa game at hindi pa tapos ang series may phobia na sila sa nangyari sa first journey nila kontra GSW, kaya dapat gawin nilang inspirasyon yun para lalong maglaro ng mahusay kung sakaling para sa kanila na itong series, pero syempre sobrang aga pa para magbigay ng conclusion sa series na to, alam din naman natin ang kapasidad ng Mavs, mabilis silang magadjust at yung dalawang leader din nila gagawa at gagawa un ng paraan para makabawi at maisulong itong series sa mas mahaba pang labanan. Pagalingan talaga to ng adjustment, kailangan ng Mavs mahanapan ng lunas yung kakulangan nila kontra kay KP, pag nag switch kasi lamon yung papalit na bantay at yung birada sa labas yun yung isa pang problema kay KP plus yung interior defense na alam naman natin sa haba nya hindi basta basta magagawa ng mga big man ng Mavs yung mga usual na pasa at dakdak sa ilalim.
283  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Lack of capital or knowledge, which one is holding traders back from profits? on: June 07, 2024, 12:28:20 PM
Knowledge is the principal thing which you can't do without in trading, when you rely so much on the money you have that it can give you the profits you want in trading this is just the beginning to lose money in trading. Having the right knowledge in trading it is possible to get good profit in trading. The knowledge we have is what makes trading to be interesting but Hernandez their is no knowledge trading becomes very difficult and  uninteresting that can make one to quit trading.  Most people thinks the important thing to have to start trading is capital that is why they don't bother much to learn to have knowledge about trading .
Yes, of course knowledge is something that is very important and that applies not only when trading, but for every activity we do. Without knowledge we cannot know what to do and maybe we will do something silly, so we must have it before doing any activity.
We must have basic things like this when trading and we cannot trade without having a basic basis for trading and one of them is knowledge. But I see a lot of people out there who do something without any foundation, I mean they trade because they follow other people and that happens to them as beginners. Usually they do this because they see other people making profits from trading and in a flash they conclude trading is something easy to do.

With knowledge you can execute your plan and even you only got small amount of capital you can grow it up and make something big becuase of better understanding with the business that you are in, like what OP said, before he don't have that much knowldge into trading that's why it's holding him back but thru time and experienced and that keen mentality to learn you will be able to developed the right sets of knowledge that will help you to succeed.

Both have an impact but more on the side of knowledge as it will also allow you to take that big risk to step your foot inside trading or any type of business or investment that you are planning to venture.

It's now needed for Kyrie and Luka to bring that spark if they failed to deliver then this first game will be for the home team.

This is not alarming yet as we've seen a lot of games in the playoff where one team loss by a huge margin but the next game they come back with a big win. Even if the outcome is not good for Dallas, it's still scored as 1-0 in the series, and it's a must win for the Boston since they need to protect their home court.

There's still game 2, and now that the hype has shifted to the Celtics, I think it's about time to take Dallas to win in game 2, yeah, I'm talking about the money odds which is bigger since they now opened at +7.5.. Also, you guys might want to check the series odds, Dallas had a very enticing one.

Yes, this is the finals so both teams will play their best cards here, I mean both coaches will play and execute the best game play that they ever designed, this is the best time for everyone to jive in and make it worth when given the chance to play, today's game is more on how Boston prepared for their tight defense it's only Luka who play big but his support unable to outsmart the tight defense of Boston's specialist, they need to adjust and find the best way to rotate the ball and find the open man.
285  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: June 07, 2024, 12:06:55 PM

There's a big line movement happened, from -5.5 now up to -9.5. Whoever move that line is sure enough SMB is gonna win. Here's some logic, who would not take Meralco +9.5 after winning in game 1? This looks very easy to judge. Anyone riding my theory?

What's happening? This isn't right? I guess the mafia are now playing and try to cash out easy money. This line is really suspicious and we don't even have an idea what's happening inside. A typical gambler who does not care for the line movement would easily take +9.5, and probably even meralco moneyline.  Betting line movement like this is hard to pass, I'd go with you guys, falling on your theory @jap.

The game has started, and SMB is taking control in the first quarter. If they continue to dominate and lead by double digits, that might suggest the theory is right. However, it's still too early to tell, as a lot can happen in a PBA game. I've seen teams come back from being down by 20 points to win by double digits.

I'm not betting on this game; I'm just watching for fun. However, I'd like to see SMB win to even the series. A long series is always exciting, and I'm hoping for a game 7 to make it even more thrilling.

Bolts quickly made their own run and now change the tempo of the game, still early but Bolts is now in the lead if this momentum continue then we might see Bolts taking another control, though it can be a play for bettors and how analysis will take place, for SMB fans this is the best timing but for Meralco backer it's now another risk for taking this period betting for either ML or Handicap. It's anyone's game as both teams are really fighting for position, Bolts to have a a twice advantage while SMB to even and reset the series to the best of 5 games.

Good luck mga kabayan! same with you, I want my team to win but I'm not betting no available funds for now.
286  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you prefer getting a loan for a startup or getting an investor? on: June 07, 2024, 10:16:38 AM
For me getting an investor is the best of the two. One simple reason is that if a business fails you still have to pay the the loan taken, but with an investor, you both share the loss. Losing a business and having so much debt to pay afterwards is a very difficult place to come out of.
Also, the amount of money you'll get from the investor(s) you'll most likely not get from a loan. Financial institutions won't want to fund the whole of your business, it's too much of a risk. They'll either give you part of the money or none at all.

Besides, I always wonder why people are opposed to getting investors for their businesses. If you really want that business to be as big as you want, you're going to sell shares eventually because you'll need those capitals from somewhere, so why be scared of a third party?

I think many people are afraid of third parties simply because they do not want to share their business with anyone. Some people may not have enough money to start a business, but they can decide to take a loan rather than work with an investor to start a business. We must understand that getting a loan from a bank is very risky because if you do not repay the loan on the repayment date, the bank will not extend the repayment date, and even if they do, they will still need additional profits in return. If the business fails, the bank is unconcerned about your losses, you will return their money or seize your property. Another advantage of working with an investor is that he may bring new ideas that will help the business grow. A bank cannot advise how to build your business because they are also in business, which is to give people loans to start their business and repay them with interest, and an investor will never request interest unless his share with the company.

There are both risk and advantages in terms of that both side, more likely the point is how you trust your idea and how will you deal in selling it with the investors, or, how good you think the potentials and work with barrowing or loaning the finances thru banking, there's always fessibility studies that you need to conduct before you decide if which path you'll want to resort your finances, I like that idea about investors who can shares idea on how you can improve your business, unlike with banks where the intention is to gain profits alone, but with investors since they also risking their money, there's chance that they will also put some fresh ideas that will let you to link or to adopt with good adjsutments for the betterment of the business.
287  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: June 07, 2024, 10:06:27 AM
NBA scamming us again. How the fuck did Jayson Tatum only scored 16 points in 42 minutes of playing time, while KP played 20 minutes and scored 20+ points? 6/16 for Jayson Tatum. This is unbelievable. If he will keep playing like this he won't win NBA Finals this year. Brown or Holiday will make it. Worst night for Kyrie Irving too 37 mins for 12 points. 🤧

A very bad night for Kyrie Irving but we all saw how these guys could bounce cback, it's actually more scary.

I think the key to winning for the Celtics was shutting down Luka Doncic's passing ability. He still scored 30 points but only made 1 assist. Then, the defensive awareness of the Celtics against an offensive team like the Mavs was also showcased tonight. I thought it would become Lob City but it seems like Luka forgot that he has centers that always look above the rim as he throws it up but I only saw him try it once. Horford is too small for Gafford and Lively, even KP will have a hard time against them.

But all credit to JB's defense. I think he got 2 or 3 blocks and steals too. One of them will go to the highlights after he blocked the dunk attempt of the former dunk champion Derrick Jones Jr.

It's their defense that really killed the Mavs in this game, they've force turn-overs, and they challenge every one when they penetrate the inside. And then the cool KP, just smiling when hitting those outside 3 as if challenging the Mavs to guard him.

Luka can't lob the pass because the Celtics is guarding the rim, and if I'm not mistaken, Luka try it but Brown was their to block it or change the course of the shot of either Gafford or Lively. So let's see how the Mavs are going to adjust in the second game. They don't want to go 0-2 against the Celtics.

Good preparation for the Celtics as they dominated the Mavs in the early stretch and continue maintaining that confidence, they manage to outrun the Dallas in both ends, and yeah, it's the good defense that  gives them that edge, they manage to limit the rotation of Mavs and force them to go one on one, though Luka still got his numbers but without the good support from the entire squad he can't carry the very balance productions of Celtics, both cores and the support cast are really bringing the help and it's tough to beat the kind of squad that's played with a great blend and chemistries.

I want Jayson Tatum to win the MVP if Boston wins the championships but it's more like Brown or who knows even Porzingis and Holiday can win it too. Tatum playing 42 minutes looks like people wanted him to win the MVP. While Brown and Porzingis already went out of the game earlier. But I am seeing Brown and some of the players more confident than Tatum. I want Tatum to keep driving inside and just make assists or fouls.

Anyways, what a game. I expected a blowout win by the Celtics and it happened. I just did not expect Porzingis to be that deadly on his first return after months of inactivity.

Brown has a terrific game again, not just in offense, but playing defense against Luka and had couple of blocks if I'm not mistaken. And he has that momentum from being the Eastern conference finals MVP, and so it will carry him over this series and maybe if he is consistent, maybe he will won the Finals MVP.

I don't think the KP will win the MVP here, yeah just a good game in his comeback, but for sure the Mavs might have to change on how they are going to guard him and maybe put Gafford and not allow a switch as he had that in this game and have a smaller player on him and so easy mid range jumper or a three from 30 feet.

Both Brown and KP got very decent productions and not just for the offense but also with their defense, Brown still have that MVP performance and if he continue doing that same momentum more likely he can also win the final MVP, though it's only the first game and for sure Mavs will find ways to adjust and counter the system of Boston, let see if how they'll going to adjust and how they will try to snatch a game inside the Garden.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2023-2024 betting on: June 07, 2024, 02:25:06 AM
I had to change my bet from the Mavs to the Celtics' first-half handicap (-3.5), even though I like the full time handicap for the Mavs, you can't go wrong with the first-half handicap on the Celtics when it's only by a few points. This market wasn't that great during the Pacers series, but I think it'll be different against the Mavs, and they could struggle with the pace of the Celtics based on their previous meetings.



Easy cash for you! as Boston leads double digits during the first half and still maintain that lead up to this point, one more quarter and we will see if who will going to take this game, though the lead is still huge but knowing how the team can manage to outrun their opponents Boston needs to continue making their attacks and not to be careless to keep and maintain their lead.

It's now needed for Kyrie and Luka to bring that spark if they failed to deliver then this first game will be for the home team.
289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: June 06, 2024, 07:27:40 PM
I think if that connection will be executed inside the court then Redick might be the coach LeBron is aiming for, they can create a good system that will bring every one to blend together, imagine your headcoach designing the play and your main man will execute it inside the court for sure it will give them the result that they are aiming, though that's too early to conclude,

Just need to wait and see if how LeBron and Redick will find that chemistry that will bring the whole team to play as one.

Or it would be easier if he just listens to LeBron. That way, he can ensure that his stay with the Lakers will last longer. LeBron gets what he wants. There have been good coaches that he played with before, but if LeBron is not happy with them, things can change quickly. For example, with Coach Spoelstra in Miami, LeBron couldn't fire him, so he left Miami and went back to Cleveland. Remember David Blatt? LeBron got him fired and he was replaced by Tyronn Lue.

Bron made a lot of decisions before during his prime. Maybe he was right or wrong. One thing is sure, coach Spoelstra is a legend and should be followed rather than Lebron's decisions.

It'll be interesting if it works these days for Lebron because he is already past his prime. If he continues like that some of his team mates or the management might not agree with him anymore and will ditch him. As we saw lately, the Lakers have the stars and good cast of supports but they always fail and can't even reach the conference finals anymore.

I agree with you,  he's no longer on his prime where he can carry the whole team unlike before and also he's now in the west side where competition is really tough, and with lots of changes and adjustments Bron also needs to embrace the change and try to work on it,  with another new coach he needs to help but also needs to listen,  I think it's been pointed the chemistry between him and Redick just needed to execute everything when they already inside the court, we never know what will happen next let's wait if things will work well for both of them and the rest of the team.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: June 06, 2024, 11:50:33 AM

Real test comes when the gambler is gambling and he faces a losses or faces too many wins and then to control his emotions and play according to the plan is something if you done successfully then we can call he is a successful gambler. Many gamblers fail when it come to the actual execution of the plan because their mind doesn't work and they take decision based on their heart and do not follow any plan what so ever.

A very simple truth in terms of executing your plans, when the real situation is in front of you, how you will react will define if how good you are in following your strategy and set plan. If you can do that hard stop once your target is being achieve then you are good to go, while if you ain't able to follow whatever you setup then the after effect of it most of the time will turned against you.

More on executing your plans and timingly doing your exit, which most of the time each gamblers failed to follow and repeatedly making mistakes and suffer with the same consequence that they are trying to avoid (losing their money).
291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: June 06, 2024, 11:37:50 AM
Every gambler should have a set rule which they abide by as they gamble, according to there risk tolerance level. I believe if any gambler have rules, they will know when to stop, continue or rest from gambling because limits are set with discipline, when this is not the case, such gambler will develop a bad, unhealthy gambling habits which does not always lead to happy ending.

If any gambler keep gambling after incurring a loss probably he has not exhausted his cash for that day, still see an opportunity within his rules, but any gambler aside this context is wrong and yield no good.

Good point, if you don't have any rules or any set limitation and you just go and play without anything behind, eventually you will lose a lot and you'll find yourself getting addicted, it's important to have that limitation and know when to stop. Most of the time experienced gamblers do enjoy their stay as they fully understand the risk, they developed that skills where they know when to stop from both side, either they win or they lose there's a certain point where they will execute that hard stop and leave the house.
292  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: June 06, 2024, 11:25:47 AM
There is no strategy in playing gambling in my dictionary, but what is there is looking for a lucky day because playing gambling is not playing strategy but how can we look for weaknesses in the robots in it because without us realizing that we are gambling the same as fighting against systems and robots that have been installed? set as best as possible to get the win..
A strategy for the game is needed, or to be more precise, a game plan in order to understand how to act if you lose or win. And to look for weak points in the game and try to beat a casino, for example, well, this is practically impossible and I think most people understand this.

Good point, it's defined to be your actual plan during your gambling sessions,  either when you are in the winning side or you are experiencing defeats, you need to have this kind of setup to avoid over spending your money, most of the time gambler losses a lot as they don't have any plans just play and push their luck and eventually lose everything on their bankroll,  unlike with a set strategy,  if you are keen in following your set plans then the chance to limit your losses can help you to minimize both the time you spent and the money that you might lose.

Some think that there's no working plan since its base on luck after all. But they failed to realize that we really need that even if we know certain situation that there's no guarantee to gain especially that we need to use certain methods that can help us to get possible wins like doing some calculation on the stats or anything helpful.

Although other people right that it doesn't increase our chance to win but at least we are doing something to pay attention on what we are doing on each bets we placed. People need something that can give them something to have fun with and not gamble randomly since this is boring then give them more higher chance to lose.

Something that allowus to adds up some fun, as when you see that you manifest from your set plans, it gives you more boost to keep practicing that strategy and if needed you'll be going to adjust as it's needed to get the same result that you are intending to have, though just like what you said, there's no assurance that we can keep that winning streak to happen, but with a kind of strategy you'll be able to have some basis when trying to bet back.

Even you lose your pick there's knowledge and understanding that you'll achieve, it can be use to adjust and to anticipate much better.
293  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't do this mistakes in trading on: June 06, 2024, 11:12:49 AM
This mistake is common and never dies; people tend to get more greedy of wondering they can get more of what they have so their emotions conquer to hold more their position after that makes another mistake tends to lose their position and gets liquidated, if you are a newbie trader this most happens but if you are experienced trader cutting loss is the most suitable than burning more your money, also have a plan until when you will hold and until what price there's a reason why TP/SL feature added in futures trading. Use this as your safety measurement.

Yup, that functions will help you to stay with your target it's best to learn more deeper understanding so you'll not just place your position and hope for luck to go behind you, unlike with deep understanding you can set up your limit and once the target hit out then you can call for the day, that's not limited with profits but also with losses, if you have that good setup then you can prevent being greedy and your chance of success is better.

It's your knowledge and trust with your own capabilities to research and study, the rest will be base from experienced that you'll again along the way.
It is indeed common, in fact every trader has experienced it, the only difference is how they can control their emotions, so they can comply with the rules they have made themselves. It is difficult for us without practice to control our emotions. By practicing more, we will have experience and that way we will be able to form our own emotional stability, but remember we also have to be disciplined towards ourselves.

More on our decision making, though practice helps you to make that good decision and anticipate how the market will move forward, but we can't deny the fact that we really can't just perfectly executed our plans, unlike with bot which they can keep whatever we set up for them to execute, human have their feelings and from that, it's really a tough call each time we are seeing how the market moves, chances to change the direction of our position is always possible, as emotions can do push us to whatever we think that will give us better outcome.

Kung tutuusin, parang ang shunga-shunga naman nilang mga opisyales ng gobyerno na panget ang Bitcoin o cryptocurrency gayong hindi magkandarapa yung mga institusyon investors na bumili ng Bitcoin o ng iba pang top crypto sa merkado tulad ng ETH, LTC at iba pa, tapos yung opisyales ng gobyerno natin huwag mong sabihin na hindi nila alam yan. Lumalabas lang talaga yung pagiging ignorante nila sa totoo lang sa aking nakikita sa mga yan. 2
Thats because they cant make tax out of it. Ganun lang naman why Government is so negative about crypto they arent wrong anything that gain profits should be taxed. Best example neto ay Binance na nga na pilit nilang gustong tanggalin sa Philippines wala sila licensed to operate unlike mga Pdax and coinsph. Everything is bound by Law ika nga, pero ganun talaga di naman maopen eyes ng mga officials natin sa ganyan kasi mas nakikita nila yung mga losses and threats ng crypto sa investors.

Yes may mga kumikita but meron din mga natatalo sa crypto. Ita always two way downtown kaya mahirap talaga sa part nila iopen up sa crypto basta basta.

Isa din kasi yan sa dapat maconsider, hindi lang kasi lahat eh kumikita meron din kasi or mas mainam na sabihin na mas marami ang nalulugi or nasscam na ang gamit ay crypto kaya kung babalansehin natin malamang sa malamang negative talaga yung magiging tingin ng gobyerno natin, not unless bubusisiin talaga nila or kung dahil sa pagbusisi nila eh nakita nilang wala silang chance makapag nakaw or maka collekta kaya ganun na lang talaga yung paghihigpit kuno nila sa crypto.

Kagaya nga ng bingay mong sample, ung binance na kilalang exchange dahil walang permit to operate dito sa bansa natin kaya ayun pinatigil nila.

Yeah that also can boost the interest of people since a lot of Filipino fans love Dwight and if they successfully acquire him then provably this could make the next conference to be more exciting since majority want to see how Dwight perform in Philippines and if he can dominate the league.

Yup, if they bring Dwight for sure it will create good impact and the effect will bring fans interest, who knows maybe that's the spark that PBA is looking to bring that old glory to the league, though still too early for that as we all know how the league is being controlled by few big names behind, but not to be a killjoy I also want to see Dwight playing for sure our local players will be inspired playing with him or against him.

Quote
For sure Meralco already know how to figure out defending JMF since they already know how the guy play. So its great that they overcome the big challenges and perform really better on game one. But I expect something more great on game two since for sure that star studied SMB won't let Meralco get another win. But I expect this to reach at game 7 since usually this is how PBA work since they are pure business and nothing surprising about that.

If the series will reach game 7 it will be a profitable series for PBA, I guess after that win SMB will find that counter they somehow try to keep that same design play for JMF but Meralco manage to bother him inside so afdjustments will be needed and for sure if they can't make it inside their outside shooters will be ready this upcoming game 2, SMB will try to tie this series to kill that confidence from Meralco.

JJ Reddick doesn't seem like he would be a great coach, but it does look like he would let Lebron be the coach. That is what we are seeing here, obviously Reddick would have some responsibilities, I am not saying that he is going to do absolutely nothing, he will be the head coach and he will do a lot, I am just saying he won't be able to say no to Lebron.

So, if JJ is saying something and Lebron agrees then JJ is being head coach on that moment, and that would be majority of the situations, but if Lebron says no then JJ has no chance but let Lebron do whatever he wants in that case. This is not a bad idea, considering it could be very last season of Lebron, just let him the coach, which could be what he will do after he retires to begin with.
If you watch JJ Redick's podcast you will see there how synchronize the brains of the two.
Here is the link and there's more about it at "Mind the Game Pod"
What Makes a Great Basketball Player? | LeBron James & JJ Redick | Full Episode
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2XVtWfancQ&list=PLp2G5GXjpIZ9833syzfb9m5Z8SJfkjpP7&index=1

I think this is what gave the Lakers the idea to get Redick as their coach. The chemistry with Lebron is so great when it comes to making plays, what's next, defense, offense, and almost everything about the basketball floor.
They will not have any problem with each other and maybe their obsession with basketball could somehow be fruitful and it will show their rank next season.
Redick is a smooth talker too so I guess that won't be a problem with the Lakers team although he is still young.

I think if that connection will be executed inside the court then Redick might be the coach LeBron is aiming for, they can create a good system that will bring every one to blend together, imagine your headcoach designing the play and your main man will execute it inside the court for sure it will give them the result that they are aiming, though that's too early to conclude,

Just need to wait and see if how LeBron and Redick will find that chemistry that will bring the whole team to play as one.

[...] we should just gamble on what we have or what we can afford, not by borrowing money from anyone. What if we can't pay up after ending up using all the money and we didn't win.

Gambling by using borrowed money is a very risky. Not only by using borrowed money, but even also using cold cash is really risky. Because, we don't know what will happen to us in the future, there is a possibility if we will need those money for in urgent or unexpected needs. So we need to keep those money for these reasons, never use it for gambling.

So the point is, never gambling by borrowing money, if you really want to gamble, just use your own money. Maybe you could use your cold cash, but never spend it all for gamble, considering all the risk as i said that maybe happen in the future.

Considering the risk, as even your own money you are not sure if you can increase the amount no assurance that you may win what more if you barrow it will add more pressure when playing, as you will think about repaying and the focus will be on the side where you'll try everything that may lead you to be more aggressive while playing.

It's best to use your own money more on spare money that you can afford to lose to avoid any problem to take place, once you are done then you can just simply quit and stop.

Indeed, they are more focus on how to spend the money and nothing else, most probably they will just ends up losing the money and add it up to the problem that they already created after being involve too much into gambling, it's best not to barrow money if you are still in your right mindset and you are just starting to play the game, just use the amount that spare from your budget and treat it up as one of those many available source of fun to enjoy.

The time you start aiming for more and use the amount that is not allocated for your gambling, will also be the time that you'll seek for more resources including barrowing money just to continue playing, it also be the turning point that you'll start losing a lot and become addicted.
It's better we use our own money to playing gambling and always limits the money that we use to gambling because that will helps us to avoids the big lose. We don't have to borrow money if we thinks that can leads us to gets many problem and it's better we avoids that. We already knows what is the risks of borrow money to playing gambling so we don't have to try it for our own good. We don't have to playing gambling too often like other gamblers because we don't have the same money that we will use to playing gambling.

We don't have to aiming for more wins if we already wins because that can makes us lose that wins because chasing more winning. We should be enough to wins any money from gambling because we still have other days to return to casino and playing gambling. We just needs to remember that playing gambling needs to be moderation so we can avoids the big lose.


If you can practice that then it's good for your gambling participation, but not many can do that, as there's  greed inside us that really tough to compete with, instead of stpping while you have the chance, you'll push for more thinking that it was your lucky day, end result most likely will return all those money to the house including your deposit.

Not many gamblers will knows when they must stops from gambling as when the temptations comes to them and they follow it, they will forget their limitation and will lose control. Many gamblers experienced that so we must be careful when we gambling and not gets tempts from gambling. We must have limitation in playing gambling so we can have a healthy lifestyle and will not use gambling excessively. We knows that gambling is a way to have fun so we will not use more money to gamble and knows when we must stops.
Indeed, this is not an easy thing for most gamblers to do, especially because they gamble with greed and emotion, but for those who can control themselves when gambling, they will certainly be able to know when to gamble and when they can gamble.

Having limits on gambling is of course very important to do if they don't want to spend too much of their money on gambling. If you can consider gambling as a place to have fun, of course you will never spend a lot of money on gambling.

If you can continue treating gambling as a place to have fun and not to aim for any financial aid then yeah you can stop whenever the amount that you set for your gambling is already burned inside the game, there's nothing to worry if you have that limit and you can control your emotion not to push for more and aim to recover your loss money.

That kind of control is not easy to achieve it's more on how you practice and how you execute every decision making that you make.

It's on you and no one else can control you stop in time that you needed to stop, it should be your mindset to aoid losing a lot.

SMB was leading by 7 points after the first half, but Meralco made their run starting in the 3rd quarter, so the lead of SMB is now down to just 1 point. I thought this game would not be exciting, but it looks like Meralco has made it very competitive. Now, it could be a 50/50 game, and those gamblers who took the moneyline for Meralco, especially at the half, are lucky.

As of this writing, SMB is still scoreless in the 3rd, and it was a 9-0 run by Meralco that resulted for SMB to call a timeout.

Spread now is SMB -1.5 only, that's very enticing, right?

Still a close game between these two teams, and the spread still enticing as if you are a SMB fan it might be give decent chance of winning good amount as odd for ML and handicap seems to be on the bettors side, though with how the game being played by meralco seems that those who take their side before the game started especially those who pick the ML that's something huge.

It's still a long way as there's a whole 4th to watch out, anything can happen and it's more on luck for bettors, timing and trust for the team that they back up.

I think I also said this over and over again. "It's easy to say but hard to do."
I mean, when you are in that moment it's like your brain is blank and all you want to do is get back whatever amount you had lost from the gambling site.
Chasing losses is part of the game and there are times when a gambler can get lucky and be successful at making it a tie against the house. There are better endings where suddenly a gambler would receive a max multiplier from chasing his losses and the only question that remains is if he have the courage to step out, withdraw the money, and enjoy the profits. Or, will he continue on and us e the profits to gamble it more and try his luck? I think that's where it all goes wrong when we are trying to be greedy for more.

Indeed, in gambling there are many aspects that can be represented by this sentence, such as self-control, budget limits, time limits, actions and thoughts. All of these aspects are easy to say, but not easy to determine and apply to the gambling activities carried out, moreover, gambling has a strong attraction and there have been many cases that prove that when we experience moments like that, there is still an attraction for us to gamble again. by wanting to get back what I have lost, I am not a hypocrite because I feel that way, but how bad it is when it happens due to loss of self-control when gambling.

It's true what you said, even when they get lucky they can continue gambling more aggressively, what's more, it's possible that they think they're lucky so they keep gambling to get even bigger wins. It's very rare for gamblers to be able to act wisely when they get their victory, at moments like that they forget their limits because they are lulled by the victory they have obtained. It's not surprising that many people squander the winnings they've got just because they want to get more than what they've already got.

Not easy to apply indeed, there are times where you think that you already have that control but eventually you lose your patiene or because of adrenaline inside you, you feel that you need more and at times, you'll overexceed with your limits, though some may able to stop and go back with the original set up but most of them who already been controlled by greed they will keep pushing forward and will forget about the strategy that they've created, and then again, they will regret not to stay with the plan as most of the outcome turned against you.
