As I have stated many times in my previous comments, borrowing money isn't a very logical thing to do especially for trading in cryptocurrency markets because trading with borrowed money in such a volatile market causes the person to be more stressed and lose money more easily. As someone who has previously made a leveraged transaction by borrowing money, I would like to help you understand what kind of psychological effect this actually has by stating that I wake up every night and check the status of my positions.

For real, people borrow money to start trading? What type of risk is that? No matter how professional and skillful you think you are in trading, I don't think it's a wise decision to borrow money and start your trading career. Although, it's a two edge sword and if you are lucky to succeed, you'll repay the debt and have your own money to start the journey but if otherwise, you suffer from desperation the embarrassment that associate with debt. However, the chances of failure outweigh that of success and that's why it is not an ideal.

True, such an approach is really not recommended in the world of trading, one of the reasons that makes sense is because in trading you not only need skills and knowledge but also this activity involves mental and psychological calm and if you trade using money from borrowing then obviously at least there will definitely be a feeling of fear in yourself when using that money to trade which ultimately makes it difficult for you to be able to focus and have difficulty in terms of analysis because of the pressure and feelings like "I have to profit to pay off debt" of course it is something that you will definitely think about when your trading session has started, And usually when you experience distractions that make it difficult for your brain and mind to focus on making a decision in trading then obviously usually the decisions you make will also miss, meaning you make the wrong decision because of the psychological pressure of the borrowed money.

So in the world of trading do not try to borrow money as your trading capital because peace of mind is needed there, no matter how skillful you are, I have felt that the psychological distraction of borrowed money really makes me feel difficult to analyze and ultimately act carelessly.

Arsenal vs Fulham

Soon we will see the match which will be held at Fulham's home ground. On the other hand, these two clubs are quite far apart in the standings table, where Fulham is in 14th place while Arsenal is far above them, in the top 4 of the standings. in the last five matches Fulham could only achieve two wins and the rest were losses, while for Arsenal themselves in the last five matches they could only achieve two wins, two defeats and one draw. Overall, Arsenal are definitely more favorites, but the problem and what is also quite a concern is that as we know, the current performance of Arteta's squad is not good, as seen from their last match, where they lost without scoring a single goal against West Ham, this result is correct - There really is a doubt for this match, especially since they will be playing away. To be honest, I really can't confirm their victory against Fulham this time, because what is certain is that a bad result like in the previous match is still very possible even if faced with a weak team. We'll see whether Arteta will be able to restore the trust of his fans or not.

Well that's true and the problem is that anyone will never know when they can get lucky or that means when they can be in a lucky situation to be able to win, so that is a strong reason why we should not chase victory or gamble for income, because the way gambling works in terms of winning cannot be regulated, and also because luck is an unknown thing so it is better to focus on self-control and other precautions, after all, if it's time to win then we will also be able to win.

But on the other hand strangely few realize about this, most of the gamblers put too much hope in winning so that it makes them hallucinate and always assume that victory will come soon, even though it is never known when luck will come, and right as you say it is better for us to gamble with the intention of entertainment only, it is better for safety, on the other hand for the problem of income you are also right that there are still quite a lot of jobs that can really promise income, so I think only lazy people are trying to make money from gambling.
Gamblers can only try it on many occasions and gambling games. They cannot chase luck to win because that would cost them a lot of money, which might exceed their limits, especially those who want to chase their luck. After all, they want to earn income from gambling. It will use up their money faster than they imagine because gambling is not for making money. And yes, that is why we must remain able to focus on self-control so that we don't gamble excessively and enjoy gambling well.

They realize that, but because the temptation to win is so strong, they forget what they are doing is incorrect. And they will still hallucinate that they can get lucky by gambling longer than usual and using bigger money. But if they could stop gambling for a moment to think about it, they would see that they are already wasting so much money that they should stop immediately before things get worse.

Yes and what is worried is that a large number of defeats occur if they try too much, because it is clear as we discussed above that luck is always something that is difficult to predict or not known when it comes, so with that it is clear that the potential for a large number of defeats is very possible if we try too much, so before we decide and act then it would be good for us to pay attention to this aspect first because regret will always be at the end. As I said before, if it's time to be lucky then we will also win by ourselves, so of course patience and some limits really need to be emphasized.

Yes maybe that's true, I mean maybe they are already aware of it but like you said because they are too easily tempted by something that is there so it makes it difficult for them to be able to accept ideas that are in accordance with the fact that their approach and way of thinking towards gambling is wrong. On the other hand, I understand that there are many temptations in gambling that can really trick or influence our minds, all gamblers will face the same situation but maybe the difference is that they are too weak in maintaining their boundaries and awareness so it is very easy to be tempted and carried away.

A rich man will not look too disappointed if he loses $2000 dollars in a few seconds. He has the ability to lose the money. On the other hand, $200 is too much for a poor gambler. He may be betting for that money most of his time in a day or more. He is frustrated when he loses $200 instead of winning. Because he needs that money to meet the expenses of his family. He is desperate for $200 but if a rich person loss of $2,000 it wouldn't affect them. A rich gambler become normal in gambling in less time which is definitely difficult for a poor gambler. A rich gambler is able to enjoy stress-free gambling but poor gamblers don't get the opportunity.

Yes it's possible, but I think the amount of $2000 is not a small amount of money and I don't think it would be that easy for a rich person to not feel any disappointment if they lost an amount like that in just a few seconds, at least the feeling of annoyance must be there even a little because after all everyone rich or poor have feelings, and especially for poor people, of course, as you said. On the other hand, in my opinion, the poor person you are talking about has the wrong approach to the goal, it is clear that he wants to win by placing the amount of money to double it, while on the other hand, this is gambling which always has absolutely no certainty about the final result, so it is only natural that he lost his money because after all it was a risk that had to be accepted. In fact, the problem of gambling comes back to the responsibility of each individual, rich or poor, if they cannot be responsible gamblers then it is clear that losing will always be a disappointing result.

No matter how bad Chelsea can be. You don't have to underestimate them. This is because sometime Chelsea might just come up with good performance from nowhere. Take control over the game and win the match. Regardless that the match will be played at Luton's Home doesn't give them much of big opportunity that they may win the match. I have watched how they play. And it is no different from how they play when they are Away and how they play when they are in their Home.
Chelsea still inconsistency performance with some time on the winning trend and another time they losses from unpredictable team, against Luton Town will be opportunity for Chelsea can continues with winning match or get losses again after last two match defeated by Wolves and last match won against Crystal Palace, left few minutes later Luton Town vs Chelsea and The Blues need winning this match for improving their standings to top fourth position.

That's right, I still haven't seen enough impressive performances from Chelsea, they haven't achieved consistently good performances and each of their matches is difficult to predict, because they always appear not stagnant, sometimes they can win against stronger teams and sometimes also lose when faced with weak teams, so it's quite difficult to be able to predict overall about their match this time against Luton Town. I think it's too early to conclude that Chelsea will be able to win against Luton Town in the match that will soon be held, we just see in the last two matches Luton Town managed to win consecutive wins and one of them against Newcastle, not only that because in some previous matches Luton Town was also able to provide resistance that made Arsenal and Manchester City quite overwhelmed to win three full points. So even though they are almost at the bottom of the table but in my opinion they cannot be underestimated, and in my opinion the results of the match are still 50 - 50 or that means it cannot be fully predicted about who will win. So we'll see if Chelsea will be able to get full points to get away from Wolves or even vice versa.

Game of luck not everytime happened sometime your luck is agenest you. That time your experience work. In gambling luck every time with you always it agents you. Sometime it with you. If you are depend on luck in gambling then you are finished. Because it's very low your luck work.play with skill experience and cold mind don't do it in stress and other thinking that is the main reason for your losses.
If you play luck-based gambling, you really need luck so if you want to win, you must have luck. We also don't know when luck will come, so we can only hope that when we gamble, luck will come and help us get a big multiplier to win a lot of money. That's why we can only enjoy gambling as entertainment and don't need to pin too high hopes on gambling to make money. If we want to make money, we better look for a more promising job to make money.

Well that's true and the problem is that anyone will never know when they can get lucky or that means when they can be in a lucky situation to be able to win, so that is a strong reason why we should not chase victory or gamble for income, because the way gambling works in terms of winning cannot be regulated, and also because luck is an unknown thing so it is better to focus on self-control and other precautions, after all, if it's time to win then we will also be able to win.

447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: December 30, 2023, 11:37:12 AM
I believe rich winning more is not only about budget. Budget may influence amount of money you are winning through gambling but it will not increase how many games you are winning. In my opinion rich has very relaxed and also wise take on money so they are open to different schemes with their money. Poor people mostly worry about money they lose so gambling can be very scary for them. Rich people know it lot better in summary. Rich mindset should definitely be understood.

It seems that what you mean is that the large amount of money that rich people have has absolutely no effect on winning in gambling, or it means that it does not have a big chance to get closer to luck. Hmm yes maybe that makes a little sense with the calm situation that the rich have it is possible to make them a wise gambler in their involvement because losing is not a big deal for people who already have a lot of money so maybe it creates a pretty good luck.

As we know that gambling always involves feelings and emotions that are within and when you experience bad things there and then you can't accept it then obviously things out of control are very likely for you to do because of the inability to accept reality which of course makes you do more trials and indirectly defeat increasingly dominate because luck will not always come according to what you want and that behavior is usually done by poor people who on average come to earn. I admit that calmness is quite influential, but in my opinion it is more of a precautionary measure and not necessarily an effect on increasing the chances of winning, doesn't it make sense? because obviously for the problem of winning no matter how calm your situation is, it all depends on how lucky you are at that time.

Acknowledging the fact that the rich may possess better decision skills than the poor is fine, but not all would be able to perform well in gambling. Pierre2 in this response may have meant that due to the money the rich possess they are more relaxed while gambling than the poor. Because the rich have less reason to worry about money like a low roller would in his gambling journey. These few instances or differences are enough to justify the fact that high rollers have some advantages over low rollers. But it does not apply to all rich gamblers. In the years of gambling and reading articles relating to gambling, we've also seen some rich people who made huge losses that were enough to affect their net worth. Gamblers sold properties, just to gamble. I think the higher the bankroll of a gambler, his choices increase as well, thereby exposing him to a greater risk than the low roller. So the effect of gambling still works on everybody regardless of their monetary status.

And another fact is that the rich have good financial management so that he can become a rich man, what you said is quite logical about the rich who can make good decisions in gambling, none other than because as I mentioned earlier that the rich have a lot of money so that it creates calmness in him especially in making decisions, maybe you also already know that usually good decisions will come out when we are in a calm situation. True, on the other hand, the low sense of worry felt by rich people regarding the possibility of losing money is also a significant difference with poor people. On the other hand, in my opinion, the rich people you are referring to who have suffered heavy losses to sell some of their assets are people who are easily emotional and provoked in the sense that they cannot control themselves in gambling so that it makes them almost unable to control their gambling activities so that they overdo it by selling some of their assets which will certainly reduce the amount of wealth they have or even go bankrupt. Of course that's right buddy, for the problem of the impact of gambling is indeed all the same, meaning that everyone has the same possibility in terms of impact but maybe for those who can control and maintain everything then they will not experience too much impact in gambling.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 29, 2023, 01:55:37 PM
My doubts are really happening about Arsenal vs West Ham, even though overall Arsenal should be able to win three points in this match with a final score of 2 - 1 or 3 - 2 or at least a draw because they are far favored compared to West Ham and as we see that in the last few seasons they have always been a hot topic of conversation to break the dominance of Manchester City, and this defeat is really a very bad result for them because from the start of the match to the end they really couldn't create any goals at all.

I'm sure on the other hand many people, especially fans, have high hopes for this match, because obviously if we look at the statistics Arsenal really dominated the game, so that makes us quite sure that they will be able to secure the full three points at the end of the match because with a victory it is clear they can pursue Liverpool's position at the top of the standings. But yes the rice has become porridge and Arteta really missed a pretty good opportunity that made them have to sit in second place in the table. On the other hand I think this season is completely different, some of the top-class teams that we always favor are having a lot of problems with their performance so that their movements look monotonous, including Manchester City.

If you start gambling when you don’t have money, there’s a 99% chance that it will even leave you worse than you were. Gambling can be about luck alone (depending on the game you are playing). Some games are obviously 50/50 and your extra intelligence won’t matter even if you tried to use it. Whereas there are games that if you check the statistics, you can give better prediction. A good example of this is football betting, basketball betting, and some other sports betting.   

On the other hand, I see that this kind of approach is often taken by poor people who come with the intention of multiplying the money they bring, no matter how small the amount or even their last money, because their enthusiasm for the hope of victory overcomes their common sense and logic about the possibilities. very likely risk. In my opinion, if you really bet on a type of game like slots then it is clear that everything there, especially winning, is purely a matter of luck, so I think there is no reason for anyone to act out of control or overdo it if they really want to be safe.

Honestly, regarding the issue of sports betting, it is true as you said that it has better statistics in the sense that your skills and understanding in the world of sports have an influence on being able to get closer to luck, but still you cannot get rid of the luck aspect there, because after all The final result still depends on luck too, for example, perhaps you have seen several incidents where a strong team was defeated by a weak team, and that means it still cannot be predicted with 100% accuracy for the final result.

I wish to know if anyone has successfully claimed referral bonuses and how easy was the process and what Casino did you claim those bonuses
I assume referrals bonuses in casinos to be one of the aided strategies of streaming to attract gamblers through a bonus influence.
I haven't come across a withdrawable referral bonus neither do you successfully stakes with it instead it remains in your gambles wallet account with a false hope of having funds on the specified bonus amount so it is absolutely waste to be considered valuable.

That's right, they have a reference bonus feature, of course the aim is to attract the interest of many people who gamble to play gambling, with a tempting bonus it can attract many people, and this is clearly a trap, maybe yes, even though they gamble and lose, they will getting a bonus or cashback to gamble again, even though it's not much, adds to the attraction of gamblers.

I once experienced something profitable, where I got a bonus or cashback from a casino site which was not much, but with that I gambled without any big hopes because I knew that in the end it would definitely run out again, but luck was on my side making me got a big enough win that without thinking I immediately cashed out the winnings and went to enjoy the unexpected win. I didn't think this would happen, but if luck is on your side then nothing is impossible, anything can happen if luck is on your side.

It is true that Aston Villa's performance this season looks very good, not only that, they managed to occupy third place in the standings. However, in my opinion, Aston Villa will not be able to become champions, because if they want to win the league title, they must be truly successful in overthrowing Arsenal and Liverpool to be able to occupy the top position and be able to survive. I'm sure they will definitely win the title. Therefore, Aston Villa must really focus and work even harder if they want to win the league title this season.
Arsenal will probably beat West Ham today and have 3 points more than Aston Villa, but the season is not over yet and everything will depend on how Aston Villa will pass the boxing day. Usually, at the very end of the season, Manchester City will gain a lot and beat everyone by a couple of points, so this season Guardiola's team can't be written off.
As Arsenal were currently second in the points table, if they can win the match against West Ham today, they will surely have 3 points more than Aston Villa. And if Arsenal wins today's match with West Ham, it will definitely surpass Liverpool because currently Liverpool has 42 points, and they are at the top. And Arsenal's points 40 If today's match is won by the opposition team, they will occupy the top spot in the Premier League with 43 points.

Of course, if Arsenal can win and get the full three points in this match then obviously they will be able to be further away from Aston Villa's pursuit and will also certainly be able to occupy the top position of the standings because as you said that now Arsenal only have a difference of 2 points with Liverpool so if they win then obviously the top of the standings will belong to them. But on the other hand we cannot be completely sure that Arsenal will win because on the other hand West Ham are also in pretty good form this season and much better than last season. So maybe I can't fully conclude for sure about Arsenal's victory, and to be honest I suspect this match will end in a draw, but we'll see.
453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: December 28, 2023, 01:29:01 PM
In fact, people always look at gambling in a bad light and some consider gamblers to be the bane of the society. So it is better not to choose this profession. But there are many people who consider gambling as a workshop and depend on it for their livelihood. There are also some people who gamble for the satisfaction and enjoyment of the mind. But winning by gambling does not favor everyone's luck. And while some people have good gambling luck, they don't win all the time. There are many gamblers who have used their luck to make a profit by gambling, while many people have become destitute due to bad luck. So I think it is better not to gamble for those for whom gambling causes financial loss. And gamblers who have chosen gambling as a profession should also keep certain limits on gambling. So that the story of gambling and becoming destitute in their lives does not emerge.

Overall, it is like that, the public's perspective on gambling is identical to something very negative, none other than because in general gambling is famous for its bad impact on society and it is clear that there is a lot of evidence that can be used as an example such as maybe some people who act out of control such as several cases of crime stealing or robbing just because they are looking for money for gambling and that is the reason why gambling is identical to a negative point of view in the eyes of society. Yes, the danger is the gambler who comes with the intention of earning and depending on the victory of each gambling.

The first point why someone should not make gambling a place to earn is in my opinion because the results of gambling always depend on luck, as you said here that not everyone is always lucky all the time and that means defeat will always be there and will not be able to avoid completely if you come with the intention of earning, simply put there is no good situation whatsoever in gambling, the rich will potentially become poor and the poor will get poorer, a basic understanding of gambling and how it works really must be considered and understood by everyone so as not to be misguided and lost.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: December 28, 2023, 12:58:46 PM
Rich people don't care too much about their money and don't treat gambling as their source of income, they play well because they aren't carried away too much when they lose because they have the money, and most of them too make a lot of buy of speed bonus headstarts so they can have the chance to get more profit with this multipliers and risk takes moves. But the other side poor gamblers have a small amount or limited amount only they would like to hope and take risks that they can take a good profit on those small amounts reason why instead they having a lot of opportunities they lose more, which makes their emotions affected reason to make a rough decision of revenge game. Playing gambling is not always a solution to money.

and rich gamblers also bet more which allows them to play the game longer. Of course, they spin to get one of their lucky breaks.
Even though I'm sure, whether you play with big or small bets, if you're not lucky then you won't win.
the situation may be different for gamblers with small capital. their bets are small and when the capital runs out in a short time, they will not have time to see luck. although some bet in several rounds and managed to win. Once again, the gambler's luck is the main factor.
People who are rich have better end positions due to which they can afford to lose. So they don't hesitate to continue gambling. And for this reason, rich people gamble more than poor people. And they can often win good things from gambling when they gamble. And that's why they get more excited to gamble. I think this is the main reason why rich people are more addicted to gambling than poor people.

I think the problem is in the financial power that rich people have a lot of money so they have the freedom to gamble whenever they want and are not hindered by financial factors especially as you said when the situation finally loses and it's not a big deal for them. So maybe the difference is in terms of opportunities where the rich have more opportunities than the poor and that's the reason why the rich win more often because they try more often than the poor. And of course for the problem of addiction, obviously rich people or poor people, basically anyone who gambles excessively or means very often involved in this activity then addiction will be closer to them.
455  Economy / Economics / Re: Idea and money are very important to investment. on: December 27, 2023, 12:45:22 PM
Both idea and money are needed to establish a good business. Alot of people are out there with good business idea but lack capital to finance it. Also having money without an idea may lead to venturing into a business where one may lose all the money.

I bet that there are more people having an idea than people having funds lacking one. Smiley
The issue is that an idea without money is worthless.
Yeah just having an idea doesn't work if you don't have enough money because any business whether small or big needs capital even if it's a small amount. Without capital it is not possible to move the business forward. So before starting the business think about how long it will take for your business to start earning. If it is one year then you have to think about capital your business will need this one year.

These two things really cannot be separated if someone wants to build a business or get involved in the world of investment, as you said that if only the idea we have then it will not be able to run if there is no money that will push for the journey, and vice versa. But in my opinion now ideas are more prioritized in terms of business because if indeed they do not have the ability in terms of money then I think there are enough services that can provide loans, but what I want to ask is whether the ideas you have are really good or even tested? sometimes even though you already have both ideas and money does not mean you are safe to run everything well, there are always situations where you slip because the ideas you use really don't work as needed.

For the problem of how long the process will take until you can achieve success or at least be able to ensure that the business you have can run according to plan and really produce I think for that problem it cannot be fully known, because it is a process and that is the reason why every person's success has a different period of time to be able to achieve success, so don't think in that direction because if you have a strong determination then your business will be able to run according to plan and achieve success in a period that cannot be fully known.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between Physical and Online Gambling which makes a person more addicted on: December 27, 2023, 12:27:04 PM
Do you think Online Gambling has the worst potential of making a person addicted?
There is nothing more, because basically both of them can provide the same sensation so that anyone involved in gambling whether in online casino or offline casino will open opportunities to become addicted.
Between online casinos and offline casinos have their own markets, those who really like all digital things will prefer gambling in an online casino while those who are still limited with internet access such as very slow speed will continue to choose traditional gambling by visiting offline casino nearby, and if the two are not carried out with full responsibility when gamble it will provide opportunities for the them to become addicted.

It is true that all gambling and wherever you are involved in gambling there is always the potential for you to end up with addiction, we must understand that gambling is very attractive, one of the reasons is because there is money that acts as a prize or the main victory in gambling, and the question is who doesn't need/want money? obviously everyone wants it, and I think if it's not money that is the winning prize then I think it's unlikely for anyone to end up with addiction.

The era is getting more sophisticated and now most people have adapted to the digital world which basically makes it easier for humans to do anything, such as shopping for home needs or booking train tickets or whatever, everything has been made easier by the digital world and of course this situation is also the reason why most people prefer to engage in online gambling online than offline because gambling has easier access and simple to do than offline casinos. Now maybe offline casinos will only be chosen by people who don't have gadgets or have limitations in terms of internet networks such as being in areas that are difficult to reach by the internet and obviously that's a reasonable reason. But for the problem of addiction I think it really depends on the approach taken by each person, if their approach is excessive then obviously the possibility of addiction will be greater.

Nottingham are playing as well as Newcastle... If not for the penalty, Newcastle would have lost in the first half... In general it is an interesting match, a lot of shots, a lot of corners, both clubs scored... By the way, I did not expect Nottingham to score in this game...
They only had a little time left in the game and it looked like there would be no chance for the home team to equalize. Because the Nottingham players were truly extraordinary in today's match even though their level of ball possession was not that great, they were able to attack well enough to produce good results at home to Newcastle. And thanks to that victory, at least Nottingham was able to save itself from the relegation zone.

I think this is one of the most surprising results of the two teams that basically have a difference that can be said to be quite significant this season, which is where Newcastle is far above Nottingham, and honestly for the start of the match I instantly thought that Nottingham would not be able to win, especially when Newcastle managed to score a goal for their first lead which made the score 1 - 0 in the first half.

In terms of statistics we can also see as you said that Nottingham's possession level is not good and below Newcastle but on the other hand it was really surprising when Nottingham managed to change the position at the beginning of the second half by being able to score two goals through Chris Kayu which made them superior and not long after that this player scored again for Nottingham which finally made his team superior until the minutes ended with a score of 3 - 1, this is really an extraordinary result for a team that is almost in the relegation zone, they are able to restore the confidence of their fans with this extraordinary result. I will wait for the team's next win in the next match to really confirm that they have risen to stay away from the relegation zone.

It doesn't matter which avenue does the gambler takes on. If he's exposed to a certain activity that is 'rewarding' to his brain, he'll go back to that activity over and over again, regardless of the medium. I personally dislike brick-and-mortar casinos due to the smell of smoke lingering in the air, plus the fact that it might get crammed sometimes and the unbearable noise within the place. However, if I happen to find a small slot machine that is relatively undisturbed and without anyone nearby, I might spend hours on that little machine just because. I enjoy the game all the same, but certainly not happy with an environment that is loud and smells of tobacco.

Well actually it all depends on the wishes of the gamblers too, like you said they have the right to choose whichever path they want to take, whether it's in a physical casino or online, the point is if they feel comfortable in one of those types of gambling then obviously they will choose it and about how often they come back to bet it also depends on their wishes and if they really get benefits from the gambling activities they do then it's natural that they often come back to do it.

Now you have mentioned one of the things that some people might not like such as for example a lot of smoke in the air due to some gamblers who gamble while smoking while on the other hand you must be a gambler who is sensitive to cigarette smoke or for example they are not smokers, of course it will be able to disturb the comfort of other gamblers, and also claustrophobic due to the full of visitors who come as well as the noise from the music played is very likely to disturb. What you say is very reasonable to be the reason why some people prefer the type of online gambling, and of course it all also depends on the safety and comfort of each individual.

Obviously for the problem of self-control, especially good emotional control, must always be possessed by everyone (gamblers), because as you said all of that is to minimize so that they avoid acting out of control when they know the final result that turns out to be losing for example, because usually someone will feel upset and disappointed when it turns out that the final result is not in accordance with what they expected. I think to minimize everything is from the beginning we must have instilled the right understanding firmly that gambling is about winning and losing, don't focus too much on winning because what is feared is that the final result does not match what is expected which can ultimately make the disappointment you feel so high.

In the event that you're not sure whether or not you'll be able to do this, then you'll be able to take a look at this article and see if it's a good fit for you. For myself, I often bet while watching the game and even though there are some mistakes made by the team of my choice which can certainly be detrimental on the other hand I am normal, upset is definitely there but not too significant.
We have to really understand this before we start gambling so that we don't experience increased emotions, which will cause us to lose self-control. I agree with not focusing on winning because that can make us disappointed after playing gambling for a while, especially since we know that winning is not easy.
Many gamblers have felt it, and in fact, we often feel it, so we should be able to learn from experience and not repeat it again. We have to understand many things so we can gamble comfortably and not think about winning. After all, we gamble just to have fun.
But in any other session, I wouldn't watch it. That can prevent me from all the feelings that will arise after finishing watching, whatever the results will be. It is difficult not to be influenced by what we see, so this requires continuous training.

Yes, and the initial understanding that must be paid attention to and prioritized is in terms of the risks that exist in gambling, understanding the basic concepts of gambling and also how luck works in gambling is very important which of course will enable you to be a responsible gambler when the end result is really true. lose, because it is not uncommon or even very many gamblers who come without understanding the magnitude of the risks involved in gambling so that they are trapped in a cycle of emotions resulting from losses that occur or even dominate, the inability to accept risks can really make someone act out of control because his emotions got the best of him.

Therefore, as I said and you have mentioned, understanding the magnitude of the risks in gambling must be prioritized, this will minimize the occurrence of excessive emotions because from the start you have realized that gambling is about winning and losing. It's true, sometimes we are still often fooled by the emotions that are within us when the situation is not on our side, it is very difficult to be able to fully regulate the emotions that are within us but I think that's a normal thing, and the most important thing is that at least we have know about what we are doing, especially understanding the risks involved in gambling and not just focusing on the chance of winning, so in my opinion don't be too serious about winning and it's better to just enjoy the game and not be too focused on winning.

I enjoyed yesterday's Wolves vs Chelsea match... Wolves haven't lost at home for a long time and yesterday's win narrowed the gap in the standings... Chelsea were lucky to score a goal in the last minute, but I would call it an even game for both clubs...
You enjoy, but I don't enjoy this match, because I lost the bet. Cheesy

Chelsea's defeat at home to Wolverhampton was certainly a big blow for Pocchetino. When Chelsea played against a strong team, they won, but when they played against a team with players below them, they lost, so I was traumatized by betting on Chelsea in the next match. So far this season the Blues have not been able to move on from mid-table. Is this a sign that Chelsea will change coaches again? Chelsea should be able to progress better this season. Because they have good players like Enzo, Caicedo, Gallagher, Nkunku, Sterling and Palmer.

A little conclusion from the actions you take to bet it seems like you are quite sure to bet on Chelsea because lately there have been some surprising results in this squad and one of them they can achieve quite good results in the previous few matches especially when against teams that are far above them, I will not say that they always win if faced with strong teams, and maybe one that makes us quite confident in Pochettino's squad is when they are able to hold a draw with a team like Manchester City in the previous few matches.

Previously, to be honest, I had intended to bet on Chelsea but I canceled the plan because on the other hand I thought back that however we could not conclude as a whole that Chelsea was convincing enough, meaning that their performance was still not stagnant in a fairly good performance, it was not that easy to put faith in a team that was very bad especially in the last season due to the comprehensive overhaul they had done, that's what I saw which finally made me hesitate to bet and cancel it. I think it's too early to conclude that Chelsea will be looking for a coach again, it's not easy for Pochettino or any coach to be able to restore Chelsea's performance to the way it was, at least they need time even though they already have some pretty popular players.
