- I think this is quite common. I recall reading a statistic about the superstitious tendencies of gamblers, and this tendency is particularly strong among people with gambling addictions. Such beliefs give them added confidence when they're betting.
- Some gamblers even translate their dreams into numbers and use them for their wagers. These become their emotional foundations.
- The crucial thing is, we can't say for sure whether these methods have worked well for them. If these practices have indeed been effective for them, it only solidifies their beliefs even more.

Yes, that's partly why casinos are so successful. Gamblers are basically seen as part of their marketing team 

They usually comment all about their winnings and how easy it is to make money betting at the casino, maybe they will even show you their receipts, etc.

But they rarely mention all the times they have lost money there. And also the casinos make you feel great while you are winning, giving you free food and drinks, etc, so that you stay longer.

The moment you stop putting money there, the lights, music, drinks, and food stop.

I am very jealous about these things, I am not one to be with friends, because I consider most of them that at any moment they cannot betray, they can talk too much, I try not to give them too much encouragement, my friends are few, they do not even reach 5 fingers the hand, why? because people nowadays are quite bipolar or betrayal, disappointing most of the time, my wife is a woman who told me that she had friends, then those friends, two of them were very bad, the good thing is that she I let her know with tests, one I discovered that she was a lesbian and a witch because she did witchcraft on her when spirits came to kill them, and since I'm not afraid of that I just got scared and realized that it was her, and I told her that I didn't even want to see her. that woman more, and another one was quite biolar and toxic, then I also told her the same thing, and I told her what friends? Those who try to harm other people are not friends, but I can't understand why people focus on harming other people? What do they gain from that? I don't understand it, instead of worrying about getting money, or business, something that produces them.

Although that story has nothing to do with this, I tell it because there is a certain analogy and that is that people like to use others to climb and they don't mind trampling them as long as they clarify, so this means that when we do certain things like those friendships, which for me are not, and what this man did when he earned that money, well, they are things that show that when they do not have a common interest they use others and when they get what they want they leave , that is not about friends, so companions are one things and a friend is another, that is what we must differentiate, so when we do the analysis it is difficult when there are friends and money mixed at the same time, that is why when we We see the money and friends, we should not mix them, it is always more likely that there will be problems that will arise.

not only does it require large amounts of money but we must have a lot of experience otherwise we could be tricked by scammers who claim to help manage the casino we founded but will actually make our casino bankrupt. so building your own casino is not easy and you dont just have to rely on money, at least we have a lot of experience in gambling and some of the systems needed.
and for gambling as entertainment I will fully support your argument, it is easier to understand and makes a lot of sense when gamblers come with a small amount of money, enjoy each betting session, have fun without expecting anything big from gambling, and if luck comes with a big win, immediately go on holiday and leave 10% for gambling again. Its quite easy but its very difficult to do these things if we dont have an adult mindset.

But I don't think it will always be like that either, meaning that not everyone when they see the calculation of the amount of deposits and withdrawals will become emotional and even worse in gambling, and I think what is more effective is that in this way they will find out that they have gone very far in gambling by seeing that the number of defeats is much higher, and also in my opinion this will be able to make them realize that this is really gambling that only relies on luck, and also besides that they might change their mindset for the better and not too much.

I think this is indeed a pretty good laternative for every gambler to do, whether it's those who are already addicted or for those who think gambling is normal. It's like a business where management is very important, so in this way maybe I think as I said above and what you said, the chances are quite high that they will think that they will reduce their gambling budget and also of course they will apply more firm self-control when gambling. Basically prevention is always going to be better than cure.

just go with the mindset that people must talk in whatever we're doing be it drinking of alcohol or gambling they will always tryna find words to punch at us to make what we doing look bad to our conscience and person. They don't care to check if you're holding on in there making sure to be drinking or gambling responsibly they just want to pretend to care whereas behind they themselves have worst things they do in secret that's unthinkable compared to gambling. In some society they have given a wrong perspective about gambling and this has forced some persons that are gamblers to hide their gambling habit to avoid unsolicited advice and talks.

I think there are two assumptions from them or their intentions when they just came to gambling, first maybe it's still reasonable as you said they came just for fun and to fill spare time, and secondly there are also those who deliberately come to look for income from winning, no other than they can assume like that because they have seen some wins from other people or even from their own close friends. But in my opinion, even if they come just for fun, it will not always be able to rule out the possibility that one day they will become addicted, maybe you also know that gambling really involves a great sensation when winning and that means that if they are too serious in responding to that pleasure then they want to keep playing and over time it is very likely that they will enter into addiction without realizing it, and also may not care too much about the money they spend as long as they can feel that kind of pleasure again, and eventually they will enter into a cycle of addiction that usually does not accept defeat and continues to seek victory.

But well that's just a possibility that is worried about, if indeed they can keep their limits well then maybe it will not enter the addiction stage, depending on the person too. Basically, the impact of gambling is great so it's better to reduce it from now on, it's better friends.

The thing is gamblers will not understand that more losses will come until their bankroll is left with no money. Gamblers will continue to be controlled by their greed and continue hoping to have more winnings. What gamblers need is the realization that the more they pursue winnings, the more losses they will get. Making them realize this will be difficult, especially if there's no one around to talk about this issue. Also, if the gambler does not make the first move to control himself in gambling, nothing will happen.

Being greedy means wanting more winnings, and having self-control is hard when you start to feel this. That's why setting a limit for yourself is needed to make you realize and think whether you will continue to gamble or not.

Yeah that's true because having a discussion with our friends about gambling in front of our kids is very wrong and there could be a possibility of the child to say, since my dad and his friends always talk about gambling all the time and use to make money so let me try it out to see I will make money the way they do, and from there they became influenced in gambling and as a child the possibility of becoming an addict will be certain.

Because this has been the source of problem for most of the kids that has turn out to be gamblers now, so even playing the gambling online we should be very careful not to allow our kids to see the gambling website because they have a very sharp memory of easily remembering things because on your absence they could use your phone or there computer to access the gambling website.

If we talk about finances and profits actually only casino owners have definite profits whereas for gamblers they can only get pleasure by spending money in betting or playing.
However it seems that the percentage of gamblers is greater for gamblers who aim to make profit or use gambling as a place to generate source of income.

There's nothing wrong if you wanted to gamble as long as you will use your own money, but depending on other people's money is not a good idea. Because if you lose, it will not just affect you but also the person who have lend you a money. So, if ever someone had walk up to you and ask to finance their gambling, even if that is your closest friend or relative, learn to say no and tell them your reasons. Because things like this should not be tolerated, because the time you have agreed on this, it's like you have tolerated them too. Also, when they use a money for gambling, they would not feel any sense of accountability from it because they are not using their own money. Because of course, they will not lose something after all, and the one who will suffer is the one who lend them money.

With strong and precise self-control, a person will not be easily tempted by gambling games that he may see around him. Trying as much as possible to restrain ourselves from being tempted by the results of winning is the right thing to do by always being aware that we don't need to chase victory and we have to accept that one day we will lose when gambling, with thoughts like that we will be in control when gambling .

For both beginners and experienced people, control is very important to do, why is that, because we all gamble just waiting to receive when we are lucky, even with the steps or strategies that we have done correctly, if we don't get lucky in time , then we will be far from winning and tend to experience continuous defeat. Yes, that's right, with this experience we can know and be aware of every temptation and risk that we will face in the future, so that we don't gamble excessively and are comfortable enjoying every step of gambling that we will take.

I have always said that friendships are one thing and business is another, there is a saying where I live that says: "Clear accounts preserve friendships" this totally applies to what can be done in multiple scenarios, where basically things can go the same way. hand that if a friend has the account in common with another in a casino, they must take care of it even if it were their own, this to avoid that if one loses the other loses it and plays in an irresponsible manner, in fact in these cases it is always good do or say that to keep things right you should do everything as much as possible so that the other person knows each move, in fact if a friend joins the casino session it would be great if he could record the entire gaming session so he can see how is that it was done, in case you lose, know that it was fulfilled with the usual plan or the plan that they have agreed on how to play, that is what I would think is fine, because that is very delicate when there is money from two people, because that lends itself to many fights.

Whenever there are things like this, what I recommend is that everyone has their own account and that way there are no fights, because if there was someone who made a mistake or assumed it and lost their part, then nothing happens, it is the responsibility of that one person. I operate when there are things in society that means having to fight, that's why I say a friendship should always be strengthened, it should never be put in danger and even less because there is no money involved, as a good player I have been suggested friends who put money in and who I play, even so I tell him no, because if I lose all that money I will be embarrassed, then that will become a very strong pressure, and I will not want to damage anything, neither friendship nor being seen with someone taken advantage of or something like that, I prefer to give them the link to the casino and I will tell them how to do it so that they can do it themselves and if they lose then it is their responsibility. and not mine.

I think most gamblers will never record the history of the results of their gambling and when they want to see it they might just look at the casino betting statistics history feature.
Whether it is gamblers who are just having fun or those who are looking for profit will not do it.
In fact some gamblers feel regret when looking at their betting history because they know how much they have lost so far.

If there is maybe just history of betting on the same day or time.
Because at the same time they will calculate the amount of losses and wins to be able to think and take what steps to take whether they are still able to continue or not.
That is only done by professional gamblers as you have said.

It is a fact, it is always better to do it this way , of course the cameras in the Casinos are something that determines Everything at once, at this Moment we can do many things, first of all if a player does that and does not come back Again, first of All it is something that must Take it as if he abandoned, of Course , you have to Sit and wait, but if the Person Leaves, he leaves and you can't reach him? and there are no more Machines ? It is Obvious that if the player doesn't come anymore because he left and the casino Agent will take that money for the casino , then is it good that he owes it to the casino? We always take stock of what we deserve and what we don't, sometimes a casino can take people's money, and that's fine, but When it doesn't stay that way, the safest thing and what Should happen is that if that person likes left a Record when Entering, that Same person must save that balance, and restart the slot machine so that the person can Deposit their Money, but currently I don't know what the casinos in New York or other Countries are like, But they Really can do it, or better said, do they do it?

That is what it Should be , there is no other Way, for me the best Thing that can be done is something like this, of course when we put Everything in context things should be fairer, because if we see it from a point of View if a person taking that credit is frowned upon, but if the casino does not take it, then it is something that leads to an inconsistency, obviously one as a player knows and understands that it is money that is not ours, that someone Should not take that Money , and it is well Known that in the Event of something like this, one should be Notified , but it is the right thing to do, some will say no, but that is the Right thing to do , Besides, a person who undoubtedly does something like that would feel good About himself and would play calmly, always things That They are Foreigners should go back, although I would take the initiative to run out to where the Person is to tell him that there is his balance Left that he should go and return, that's what I would do.

- In simple terms, the more they lose, the more determined they are to find a way out. I've noticed similar sentiments expressed frequently on this forum, and your topic appears somewhat vague to me.
- Perhaps it would be more helpful if you could specify the issues you're facing so that everyone can engage in a more focused discussion instead of speaking in broad, general terms like this.

Thinking of making playing gambling a full time job is really not a good advice to anyone who may want to venture into such idea as that may lead to an addiction and may equally lead to heavy lost of once money if care is not taking. Get a skills that will help render services and in return you will get paid for your service. Taking playing gambling as a fun will make you enjoy playing gambling, and you may be lucky one day and make huge amount of money from playing gambling but not to take it as a full time job.

I don't do that but if a co-worker knows that you do and that person is jealous on what you do, you'll probably receive an IR from your HR. Especially in the work culture in my country, if you're not the superior position then you'll have to be asked for so many times with favor that will be commanded to you and that's how you get along with them. But if you're in a higher position then that's nothing for the subordinates that you have. There's a term on that type of person that uses your work time in doing something else regardless of what it is, and that's likely near to be called as a jerk.
