taking loans and gambling despite having no money in their pocket etc. Because of this, it is better to keep yourself under control and play limited gambling
We think that of all the mistakes that can be made financially is to ask for loans to be able to do something else with that money, a person always lends money thinking that it could make a difference, that is, if they lend $2k they will leave with at least $3 -$4k and this or so, things in the casino work differently, and when they lose the money they lent, things get worse, because not only do they not have money to play, they do not have money to pay the loan And apart from that The player has a family, children, we must add the problems he brings in terms of food expenses, maintenance, and apart from those expenses that have to do with services, and this becomes stress, pressure, something that can make him A person loses control and does not know where to get money from, this is the only worst thing that can happen, because it is already a minimum step to enter into addiction.

Apart from this, when a person has gone into debt like this he cannot demand that things turn out well for him, because he has to get involved in more days and more things that become more complicated as time goes by.

Taking a loan to gamble with is far too many risk to take as a gambler this is because most times the results of such moves have always ended in the negative which could be traced to pressure to recover from Previous loses and at that when you build that capacity to take loans at frequent it becomes a habits which will later translate into addictions on the long run, so many of those wrong thoughts that you can make up for what you lost or being able to make some gains on the long run, from a loan will always end in frustrations.

So it best to decipline yourself to the point that you can easily walk away fr9m gambling when you already exusted your set aside funds and to a point that if you don't have any left over funds you walk away instead of taking loans to gamble with, that is not wise decisions unless and only those who are already addicted to gambling will go that legnt just to satisfy the urge.

If in fact things are like this, when I am in a game the last thing I could think about is lending money, I know that in the long term the effects of these loans are catastrophic, it is something that cannot be done to guarantee a life full of fun because throughout the year or as long as it is necessary, he will have to pay a lot of money to be able to have things well and Finances in a Positive Way , which is quite difficult, I could say that when it comes to doing things better a player must understand that Borrowing money to play is very irresponsible, it is something that should not be done, however there are some who ignore it because they believe that with the loan they will win and recover previous losses.

As I have Said before, for me to be able to borrow money it is for a very urgent event, so I generate it something that has to do with Medical care or an Emergency of that style , for the rest I do not see it as viable, of course in my personal Perception , for Borrowing to play in a casino, that doesn't make sense to me.

Your experience will help you out to control your emotions. It is important that when you gamble, you still have the control to your emotion because if not, worse things will come to you as you gamble.

You'll never know how much you'll be able to bet and lose when you're not on your right mind and you're out of control of your emotion. With that, too many gamblers fall to their own emotions because it seems unreasonable for them to control it when they can't think correctly.
Emotions is as much a bad energy to trading as it is to gambling. It’s the one means to cloud your judgement and directs your thoughts towards not making a clear decision based on the available statistics but rather, take drastic steps that would include betting on high risk stake events. This is basically based on you having to chase the money, the losses you’ve made and not making any careful consideration.

One needs to be clear in mind and thoughts to be able to take clear and precise decision based on available statistics. The statistics points the way and backed by a thought you have on the game.

What you say is very true, what happened is that the statistics, like none other, are not very favorable numbers for us as players, they are always against us, it is very difficult for those who go outside the statistics to be able to win in a casino, which is the most You can have the opportunity to win in sports betting, of course in my very personal opinion, when we are in the casino sometimes we do not enter with our thoughts clear, because we are always thinking about what has happened to us at work, in things What we have to do, our obligations and that is something that can be harmful when it comes to playing, what we must do is have our mind willing to play without thinking too much, just having fun, without needing to do other things or having our collapsed mind.

For us, playing in a casino is better to do things well, to have ease, without ties from daily life, as you say, it is the best, to be clear, to have a relaxed mind, only willing to play and win, obviously accepting the designs of the game, yes. It is a win or a loss to assume.
If you think about it, rarely is everything going well for anyone, because stress at work and in the family has become commonplace. Many people think about how to feed their children, pay off loans, fix a broken car, how to help old parents and much more. A bachelor without loans and a car, who has a place to live and has money for 1 year+ or passive income, can feel completely at ease. I think there will be very few of these. Moreover, I noticed that the best decisions made in gambling are unemotional decisions. I also turn off all the sounds in the game and try not to react to the bright images of the game, this helps to maintain balance. And if we scream, worry and run around the room with every lost bet, this will lead us to emotional imbalance. . And this, in turn, leads to a natural loss. In general, I would advise those who consider themselves emotional to enter the game very rarely.
I can't say less, basically you give the description of things as they are, in both cases things tend to be different situations and yes, you are right about that , the Majority are always people who have families, children and so on, their obligations are in full bloom of skin, but in my case it is Incredible, I forget every problem when I go to the stadium to see my favorite team, be it the crazy one or the one from my country, it is 90 minutes that I am in a different world or I feel in a parallel world, I enjoy that type to the fullest and that is why the casino , the game, has to be seen in that way, so as not to have any type of inconvenience, of course it is not easy, in the casino it is not easy to get that moment of distraction of disconnecting from the world, but if it is proposed, at least for 5 minutes we will forget about everything.

Of course this has a lot to do with the level of concentration of the person, normally in a physical environment it is easier to get that attention, but at home with the family around it is Difficult unless they lock you in a room.

4.-Which one is more easier to manage than the other?

Based on my personal opinion, I would say that it is much easier to manage a physical casino than an online casino, in an online casino you have to manage many bosses for many of its departments.

I would choose, without a doubt, the physical casino, even though the physical casino would have to invest in security and in certain things that the online casino does not have, in this case incentives, such as gifts, meals, something like that, but that partly come out of the same losses of the players, even so I think that the expense is less than that of an online casino.

Actually, we don't own any online or physical casino, therefore we can only speculate as to which is easy to manage online or offline casino.
The ones who are actually involved in the two businesses can tell us the exact pros and cons of both setups.

However, I would not necessarily agree with the last question's answer that it is difficult to manage an Online Casino as compared to an offline casino. Don't you think that managing a physical casino is more difficult as you have to hire people, manage the building (rented or owned), manage the people coming to the casino etc etc. With online casinos, all of the things will be taken care of by the casino developer when it comes to the design and security etc and it is just a one-time payment as opposed to the physical casino where you have to pay the rent and hire staff to m whom you will need to pay monthly.


Yes, I understand the point, but it is easier to manage than a large conglomerate where you have to deal with security, it is easier to deal with hiring staff and renting a site than to Complain to IT security because you let a certain amount be stolen of money? How does the Security entity respond? It is difficult, you cannot determine things like that, currently there Are many security updates, and all that has a big cost, the administration is not complicated, the hard part is the expense, and in a company what is sought is to reduce expenses and That everything is cheaper, that is the objective, in a physical casino the subcontracting of rental staff is only taken as a liability, but the mere fact of protecting Capital is everything, in a casino or online if all the security measures are in place. They are affected, everything fails and money disappears, and that is really delicate.

There are online casinos that do not last much, they become decapitated and cannot respond to withdrawal requests, some say that they allow manual withdrawals, in a physical casino the movement of money is instantaneous, so for me it seems to be easier.

And that's right, it's difficult to Speculate , but roughly I see things like this, I've done some work for people in companies, but they don't have problems with hacks where their money is compromised, maybe their database or something like that. , but it is not worth Worrying about, however in an online casino that risk is always there.

745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread on: March 19, 2024, 09:28:00 PM
I don't mean the countries, but the football teams. Are you going to tell me that any of these national teams are competitive teams?
All the teams that you say are very competitive, the level of football from a few years ago has been much lower, that has already happened, there are very strong teams, Colombia, the Peruvians themselves, Chile, Venezuela, they all have players who have made careers Also in Europe, just the pure qualifying rounds are to die for, in fact if you start to watch the qualifying rounds Brazil is one of the countries that are strongest, but at the moment it is not in first place nor in second place in the classification for the World Cup, because most countries are no longer Cinderellas, absolutely everyone has raised the level.

They are not countries where football is horrible as you say, each one has their own technique, and their way of defending their style of play, that the game of Argentina and Brazil always stands out and something else, and yet, right now they stand out because they have the help from MESSI, and it cannot be denied that Messi enjoys many privileges worldwide, it is even reflected in the arbitrations, but that is another issue, what matters here is that these countries have a very good level, in fact in one Some days there will be some friendlies with some countries in Europe, we will see what level they are at, although I don't know, it may be that only those on the bench will play.
746  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: March 19, 2024, 09:08:14 PM
Indeed, everyone can do whatever they like, even though it may be against the law, but if they like it then they will probably still do it. and even though gambling is prohibited in their country, if they are addicted then it is very likely that they will do it secretly, because it is their hobby so they will definitely do it even though it is against the law. and even so, there are some of them who keep it a secret and there are also those who publish it.

Personally, in my opinion, it is best to keep the gambling we do as a secret, even though it is permitted in the country, but in my opinion it will only waste money and of course, in that way, there is a possibility that small, potentially big problems could arise. It is also better to keep the winnings obtained in gambling a secret, keep quiet and enjoy it in a good way, it is okay to treat a friend and tell them where the winnings came from, as long as our friend can fully understand, so that no conflict will occur.
I think that each of us has our way of thinking and our way of coping with things, those that they want to keep secret because they know that this will not lead to problems, in my case very particularly a few years ago the games of chance, casinos and betting were totally prohibited, and that had been going on for more than 20 years, after this the government removed that law that was really retrograde, of course where the government always receives a large money for allowing casinos to operate in the country , but at that time my way of playing was through online casinos, and that was something different , the experience is different from what you have in a physical casino, but basically things with their game systems are the same, The difference is that an online casino can be played from home comfortably or from a phone, PC or tablet.

For me these things are very important, because I consider that a country that prohibits games of chance the only way out is online casinos, if online casinos Start to prohibit those countries due to their regulatory resolutions thanks to the most countries power of the world is something that will never make sense to me.

I agree with you that we have our own ways and thoughts, therefore of course we will definitely not do everything the same. including gambling, there are those who like physical casinos and there are those who like online casinos, that's each individual's wish. What you say is correct, even though these two things have differences, the games tend to be the same, but now I think more people are playing online casinos, because you can do it anywhere you want as long as you have the facilities such as cellphones and the internet. but I don't know, maybe there are still many people who gamble at physical casinos.

with the existence of this online casino, many people gamble online because there are tempting advertisements, also with a low minimum deposit it can be reached by everyone, because in my opinion in online casinos there may be a certain limit on the deposit, and maybe it is quite high the amount.
Even though it doesn't work for you, if the casino wants it, there's probably no way to refuse it, because we're just players who can't change anything the casino sets.

Yes, things tend to be like this, of course each person has their own tastes, there are some gamblers who have a lot of money and do not leave their physical casinos, when you talk to them about online casinos they do not believe in them and they don't even play there for nothing. think that the gaming system is the same, but it differs in that a physical casino can make friends, you interact with people, it is another type of experience, so this is all we have to see, however when we are In a physical casino you must play and not stop, it is not like the Online casino that if Any event arises you stop and go and attend to that event and then continue playing in the same place where you left off.

The advantage of an online casino is that things are better because there are other types of freedoms, for the most introverted it is ideal, the bad thing is that now there are a series of requirements that no one finds pleasant, such as KYC , like that because if you don't comply with the KYC or you can withdraw money, that is something that is not healthy for some and that bothers, in the physical casino things are not like that, and obviously in an online casino people don't see you, there is something more privacy.
747  Economy / Gambling / Re: Does anyone find the spate of online casinos a bit uninspired? on: March 19, 2024, 08:53:28 PM
That's what we're afraid of, and therefore we have to be careful with everything, including gambling and choosing a casino. Many casinos have a design or appearance that may be almost the same, and the games may also be the same. However, to be able to determine whether a casino is trustworthy or not, in my opinion, is difficult, because there is no certainty that can be used as a benchmark, reputation in my opinion could be fabricated, as well as other things such as reviews. What is clear is that we must remain alert and careful so that undesirable things don't happen.

Most likely, with the many casinos that exist, they have the same games, there are differences, maybe only one or two games that can still be counted on one hand. In my opinion, the casino provides many games that can be played with their own flow, it's up to us to be ready or not to try all the games in the casino, because of course to try all the casino games you need money to be able to do it, even though there is a chance to win, but that's it. not sure. Looking for a suitable game for ourselves must be, as you said, with Japanese games, and previously you said you like pragmatic games. I myself feel happy with the pragmatic game so far. I don't know if I'm too lazy to try other games because I already feel like this game suits me

Yeah,. In fact, things with casinos can be seen from a point of view where you can analyze where not everything that glitters is gold, and that is very similar when the apple comparison is made, when it looks very pretty outside but inside it is rotten, and the fact is that there are casinos that are like that, however I have always insisted on the casinos that are old and that have a better reputation because they are already known and have a great acceptance in this area, in the same way we We cannot help but say that they are immune to hacker attacks or something like that, everything as long as it stays online can allow the risk that they may be targets of attacks, although this type of casino always has layers of security to protect the funds of the users.

Just as you said in a casino, if we go for the slots, well my favorites are the pragmatic ones, and perhaps we have the perception that since we feel good playing them we don't try other options because we are accustomed to the benefits they bring, however these These are a common denominator in all casinos, but the average player already knows them, so why not try authentic casino games and try your luck there, sometimes these games like the Japanese ones attract attention and it could be that this type of Authentic original casino games make players hooked.

In my opinion, new or old casinos have similarities in terms of security, of course they prioritize security for each gambler, including their own security, which of course tries to prevent their system from being hacked by hackers. and with this it could also be an additional value to their own reputation which might be good. because of course security is one of the conditions that every gambler must have a good opinion of, so that they are comfortable and trust the casino. It's true what you said, maybe everything that is online has its own risks. but in my opinion the company will definitely do its best for the comfort of its customers.

That goes, maybe if the game is already well-known with lots of gambling advertisements featuring the gambling you mentioned, maybe lots of people will be interested in playing it. because I myself don't want to take risks, unless I have more money, chances are I will try it, but if I don't have more money or only have limited money then I will just gamble which I really like.
Having a tight and good security is a default thing specially into this kind of business which inbound or outbound transactions do generate tons or simply millions of dollars on which it would really be just that normal that they would really be having that tight and good security on which this is one of the most concerned thing of gamblers that they do know that their funds is safe once they do make out some deposit.
When it comes to site design then cant really be denied that most of them does have that similarities on which having some tweaks or changes but you could really see the same theme.
When it comes on overall design and UI/UX is that they would really be needing up that kind of consideration because gamblers do really like that fancy looking places or platforms.  Wink

Basically, the majority of players always look for what is essential, having very good security because that at least for me is the most important thing, I am not going to put money in a platform where they are going to steal from me, partly the players are like when one falls in love, First you see the physical part and if you like it, then you continue there insisting, then that is something that is very normal, not only because as a person you like elegant things, but it is the presentation, the first thing we see and obviously it affects us. You have to like to play and explore the games they have there.

For many players it is important to have a good environment that is pleasant, that it is understandable, and yes, it is important, but basically that aspect for me is in the background, because for me the most important thing is the security of my money, that's why I would give more importance to that, having a pleasant atmosphere could improve, but a casino that is a scam will never have a solution.

A Man bet his life savings on 1 spin of Roulette

Did someone verified that it was his total life savings he used to bet? Because in my point of view, he's ready to throw his life away. I did not watch the video, but by just reading I could definitely tell he's life is about to go to the wrong direction.
He might be lucky this time for being able to get the win, but luck doesn't always favors us. If he's done it today, there will be a huge chance that he'll do it again the next time.
This is just one of the example of bad gambling habit. Showing this in public might only encourage some desperate gamblers to do the same way. I once witnessed someone who put his whole month of paycheck in one shot and that guy was very unfortunate because he lost. That for sure taught him a lesson, if he ever thought of doing that again, then there's no doubt he's got addicted with gambling.

This is a very particular case, and when a person makes a decision like this they have to know what is at stake, they cannot leave things like that just for a chance, that is something very dangerous, the mere fact of saving means the effort that It had to be done in order to reach a considerable amount, because if you lose, how will you survive? with empty hands and like a real fool, because before doing something like that what I would do is buy BITCOIN and wait as long as necessary to see many profits, but the truth is I wouldn't put it on a roulette wheel, it is something that is very irresponsible , which for me is not something viable, it is a very irresponsible act.

But since there are many people who have another type of thinking, well, one respects it and everyone takes their risk as they want, if they are a rich person they will simply be very calm if they lose money, it will not affect their daily life, they will have a way to respond to your needs sooner.

In the case of the majority of people who unfortunately do not have that monetary capacity, they have to take care of themselves, because many times addiction occurs due to lack of money or the decapitalization of money.

It is really that hard to determine whether these stories are true or not because if we do talk about life savings or the fund he do all have then this is a personal kind of matter on which this is something that cant be known publicly and this is why it wont really be that too easy to tell whether this man had put it all or really just that telling lies or just for the show. Well, whatever the truth is then betting your life savings is really that a suicide. No one on their right minds would really be definitely be betting up all of his life savings but if we do really tend to look around into those people or gamblers who had messed up their lives because of too much gambling spending or involvement then i could really say that there are really people who are really that still believing in unicorns. lol

One all in bet would really be putting up your life miserable and i dont know on where these people minds been thinking that they could be able to pull it through.
Gambling should be just that for fun and not something that you could be able to make your fate rely on.

Well, that is another option that should not be ruled out, we do not know if they do this with the intention of seeing that someone wants to become famous by telling a Story and that story makes them see that they want to be a recognized person, sometimes people in the world They are like that, but still, as you say, it is very sad that a person has collected so much money and Risked it like that, I really don't see the point, it is good that he takes some of the money and starts playing in a casino but is everything money? That is something that turns out to be fantastic, I think that a person like that being drunk would not do it, of course this is something that will always depend on the type of mentality of a person, I know that in the world there are people who do not give importance to almost nothing and they have this type of thinking, but in reality I think that many of us would not risk a large capital in the casino , it would be a very crazy and irresponsible thing.
749  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have this practice of gambling during one's wake on: March 19, 2024, 08:18:48 PM
I think the so-called tong won't be enough to support the family who are left by those who died if he is a husband or father who only works in the family but they can be good already to buy a snack that will be offered to those who play gambling during the mourn. You said those who does this already seek permission from the authorities?

So, definitely it's also legal if done in other countries but I think not all countries are doing this, especially the richer ones as they can already afford the snack and other expenses when they have a family member who have died. When there is a tong involved, the games must be true and not for fun only but playing during these events are no doubt more fun because relatives from from far places are gathering and we can as well see lots of different faces in the area.

Funeral costs are very high almost like in all countries, sometimes people do not have enough money to pay these expenses, that is why it has become very fashionable to do so-called cremations, which are generally somewhat cheaper, but it is not It is bad to do certain activities if you want to raise funds for these expenses, generally where I live some people resort to holding "raffles", whether for cars, motorcycles, many things, the truth is I had not considered it. Poker tournaments could be organized, it is something new where I live, because generally things with gambling where I live have not expressed that taste, although they are very exciting things, but it would be a matter of seeing if it gives good results, then it doesn't matter, that can work, the idea is to be able to have enough funds to Covering those expenses is not bad.

Gambling will always attract the attention of many people, but if you organize something like this you have to be very careful, even in the event that a problem arises, as money is very delicate, fights can occur.

I dont know if this one is already that offered on some countries but there's already having those life plans or something that connects out about when you die there's already that having funeral plans or in correlation
to this on which you would really be having no problems when it comes to funeral arrangement or something which the family of the affected ones wont really be having that kind of hardship on expense.
Talking about practically on which the thing you've said is really that actually true on which it is really that indeed too costly i must say. From coffin until those burial then it wont really be that coming cheap.
This is why it would really be understandable that to those families who are sitting on those middle standard or status to poor would be struggling into this situation.

No one really knows on when to die and this is where these kind of plans would really be relevant. It might sound that too bad in our ears but talking practically then this one is really
that something that you could really be able to prepare on.

You are absolutely right, these things tend to be very expensive, now there are many plans that I have seen on TV where insurance is paid for this type of event, where they basically offer the entire funeral service, so in view of these things we can draw the conclusion that things have to be previously planned, the person when  is die is over for that person everything , but the problem that the family faces, not only the pain, but the spend that comes at them, is a strong point, but You have to face it as you say, I remember that when the covid pandemic was going on, it wasn't even worth it to bury the dead, but rather burn them, of course it's something else, but it affects it in the same way.

That is why it is striking that in some countries they see poker tournaments as a way to raise funds to cover funeral expenses, it is not a bad idea.

For me things are very clear in Serie A , but what I really want is for Juventus to be able to participate in the UCL again, it is something that the team needs, I am sure it will greatly increase the team's morale of course. I would like Allegri to leave because Allegri has always been Present in that team in good and bad times, so it would be good if they could once again have that great privilege of participating in the UCL and hopefully achieve good places and advance as much as possible. that they can in the UCL without ruling out what they can win.

I expected Juventus to perform better in this Champions League season, especially considering their popularity in Serie A. They had the chance to be ambassadors for the league, but they fell short of expectations. It's disappointing that no Serie A club made it to the quarter-finals. Unlike the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1, Serie A lacks representation at this stage.

I had hoped to see Juventus representing Serie A, but that didn't happen. If they want to be part of the next UCL, the opportunity is there for them, but they need to step up. They must decide whether to improve their performance and represent the league or give way to other clubs like Inter or AC Milan who might better represent Serie A in the Champions League.

Well, this is something that has taken all Juve fans by surprise, because some teams have always done very well and others have a hard time being at the top, right now the goal and objective is the UCL, to finish among the top 4 places in the Serie A classification and be able to reach the competition, this has also been stated by Allegri, so far they are in 3rd place, they cannot lose that position, in fact they must fight to reach second place that Milan has it, at least to equal it because it is something bad in the table and Bologna are on their heels, so this type of thing is what they have to show that they have to win more games, not give up on At this point, right now is where they should be pushing, they haven't done badly during Serie A, they can't let up now.

Risking out 1% out of your monthly salary isnt really that a bad approach and control that you could really be having because having limits would really be that signifying that you are really that in good control with your gambling activity on which it is really that a good step for you to be able to avoid up such possible potential problems in the future.
(...)

I'm failing to understand the benefits of the 1% rule. Even if its main goal was to be a control measure to prevent gambler from incuring an excessive loss, it's not really effective in this area as the only limit is 1% per bet which does not prevent player from betting hundreds of bets in a short time frame.
But is the purpose of that rule is to increase profitability then it's even worse. As I mentioned previously, are simplistic rule like that won't work well as it doesn't consider all other factors.
The 1% rule is not supposed to be used for each individual bet, but the overall budget that a person should assign to their gambling hobby, so once 1% of their income is lost that person should stop gambling for the whole month.

So a person following that strategy should in fact save themselves a great deal of money, since the losses they may suffer will be very low, however I am not so sure those that really like to gamble will be happy to downsize their budget to that amount.

What you say is very true, but basically things can be very difficult for some who cannot even bet 1% because perhaps the expenses and obligations are very high , very Strong and this can cause much more reduction of expenses So if a person tells me that he plays with only 1% of his monthly income, it is something that I once again think is a responsible person, because he places the casino's activity in the position it should be, he is not putting it First of all, if he is not putting it in a Place where the main Importance is the basic cats, this seems to me like he is a responsible person.

In many Ways, playing in a Casino can seem like a Luxury , Something that not everyone has, some will say that it is too little money, but we don't know if that 1% of people are Stopping going out to eat ice cream with their family, or at least go for a walk in the park, that is something that we must consider when faced with any type of Criticism that may be made.

We, as players, always want to have a lot of money to spend on Something , because we like it, because we can be passionate about i t, but we are people who, Even before giving ourselves over to fun, have to fulfill our obligations.

Gambling everyday is the worst thing one can ever do as someone who is reasonable.We all know the bad side of gambling,which is addiction, therefore,anyone who has decided to be gambling everyday,must be ready to be losing money everyday as well,because if it is in football, prediction is something very hard,and the least mistake you make will lead you to lose.
Gambling everyday has tought me a lesson I will never forget in my life,and since I've been a victim of everyday gambling,I can't advice anyone to gamble everyday.Atleast once in a week is very okay.

I hope that other people here on the forum will listen to you, especially since you yourself have already experienced the outcome of continuing to gamble daily. It's also difficult if you only focus on gambling, right? it is possible to affect your daily life especially if you are working, your momentum at work can be broken and the worst thing is that you will be fired because of the mistakes you make, you cannot stop once the addiction has gripped you so While it's still early, we should prevent it from happening.
In short, this is what is important, the way that people express their experiences is what often helps others avoid mistakes and falling into the tendency to do it. I also see it as exaggerating that you have to play every day, I don't see it. healthy, because it creates a dependency on the casino for the person, it is something that I do not see viable, I could say that playing a week 1 or 2 times is very good, because playing every day 'can lead a direct fall to addiction , and the truth is that addiction to a casino can bring very strong, very unpleasant problems where friends, families, children (if there are any) are affected, the mere fact that someone has already done this and I say that I do not recommend it is because the The experience was truly something very unpleasant, not because of the fun he could have received, but because of the amount of money he must have spent.

Starting from the fact that casinos are places where you cannot think of them as a secure income, things are different, but the casio is a company, second, they have a very good business model for the owners and third, the casino will always win Because of its house advantage, that is why a person should not play every day, because if we add it up, they could lose all the days.
753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Future of Gambling on: March 18, 2024, 12:58:53 AM
The way gambling is now spreading all over the world, it may become an addiction in every household in the future. Nowadays, casinos have gained the most popularity in this modern world, where people deposit money and get a lot of money by placing bets. And the metaverse technologies that are spreading day by day in the modern world will attract more people to gambling in the future. I think we'll see a lot more in the future and gambling will get more technologically advanced and people will get into it more. Although currently gambling can be controlled, I feel that in the future people will gamble and not be able to control themselves.
As the games develop and advance, they should help not cause addiction, they should also invent a way so that the person does not play so much and become addicted, it is like video games that helps the player to rest, since at one point were reporting kidney problems apart from the players of a specific game, where they hardly ate or slept, they just played, so in view of that the games scheduled them to rest for at least 12 hours, so if you can think about implementing something like this in casino games it is not bad to think about the possible addition that you can develop thanks to technological advances in games.

Many things that refer to games such as metaverses, virtual reality, are proposals that must be improved, that is a premise now, because I am sure that things will happen in the near future, and it is very likely that they will. At least I do think that metaverses and virtual reality do catch my attention, but of course I think that Cainso must also preserve the conservative design of each game that casinos have, so that it can cover all tastes. .
754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does the game of luck in gambling really works? on: March 18, 2024, 12:38:44 AM
Luck, this cannot be analyzed, whatever method you choose, this cannot be analyzed even with mathematics (IMO). Personally, I won't be able to say how luck works itself. Even in life outside of gambling, we often experience luck without knowing the exact time. It's the same as gambling, when you think a weak team can win a big team, and you bet on the weak team and it turns out to win, that is part of luck. Or, when you bet $0.2 to win $2,000, maybe you wouldn't think it was possible, that's also luck. Can you analyze the win? Of course it won't be possible.
They say that luck is a factor of what we are doing, so if we are to analyse a thing, let say a gambling game, we might actually increase our luck percentage. Gambling has odds or numbers, just like what we had in Mathematics, so learning how to read the odds and doing some calculations can as well increase our chances of winning or reduce our chances of losing.

Luck outside might only differ a little from luck in gambling because you said we may not expect it as we can be doing random things but when we are gambling, it is intentional and like we said earlier, we can also do an analysis if we are that desperate of earning a profit.

Luck is usually one of the things that is most difficult to explain, but I don't know, sometimes there are people you see and say, that person is very lucky, not only in casino games or sports betting but in everything they do. , everything turns out well for them, sometimes I start to analyze that, and I tell myself that that person is like that because I believe that he does not have bad intentions with anyone and has a very positive energy, I am not a person who has malice, in the people I have come across in my life some are usually like that, but that changed my mind a lot when I met another person who is not good at all, he is a caring person and I don't know why, wow the socsa come to ask him of mouth, and they have very good luck, everything comes easily, without so much effort, and he has that for everything, and even though he is not a good person, because he has qualities that are not good at all.

So encompassing luck in a single concept is something that can turn out to be very difficult, and I don't know how luck can be produced, I believe that we are all born with something, and that something includes our luck, because it is something that we do seek. We wouldn't know how to get good luck, we can do everything well, but if there is no luck we don't win, this is an enigma, at least that's how I see it.
755  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Focus on how much you may lose and not only the potential win. on: March 17, 2024, 11:15:19 PM
Often people do not think about the possible losses. Gambling is a dangerous thing, and often serious losses of money occur due to excessive gambling. However, you should try to be aware of each of your bets and do not act impulsively. And try to calculate the size of the winnings, otherwise a large number of small losses can easily overlap one large winnings

that's very true. You know, as someone that's used to gambling with something very small, I understand how it could get unnoticed to always ignore our little and regular losses as long as we occasionally win. I know it's not best to always make comparison on how much we've won or lost as it could affect our gambling mindset and put us In position and situation where we might be tempted to trying regaining our lost money by all means but if you take into account how much you've lost maybe on a monthly bases it will guide you to make the right decision if you should continue gambling or give it a break.

You can only make a good decision when it comes to your gambling habit if you have a breakdown list of amounts of your winnings and losses, so sometimes it's okay to check it or make it a habit to do it especially if you know on your own that you are consistent with gambling, like you gamble everyday, you need expenses monitoring but if you only gamble rarely, you don't need to do this.

I think that the most important thing for a player, rather than a cat control, is that he always allocates the money to play in a casino that amount that does not affect his life, I insist a lot on that because basically the problems originate in the casinoif it is because we run out of money, and some players get desperate, they start looking for money like crazy to continue playing because they believe that they are going to win in vain and that they are going to come out almost illusory, and that is not the case, the problem of every player will always be that of money, that's why we have to change our mentality, do we have money? We have to take care of it inside the casino, because sometimes we make bets of 1 or 2 dollars and it doesn't matter to us if we lose, but come on, if we want to play in the casino the casino is not going to give us 2 or 3 dollars if we need it in a game.

For me, this is always the basic mistake of the majority of players, because some enter with large amounts of money, I don't know 100usd in advance, and they don't take care of them, because they believe that they will never run out and that is sometimes the case. can laugh very fast, so this is the time of thing that we as players should avoid happening.

The control of the list of expenses, inputs and outputs, well, it is good, but the control of what we are willing to lose is superior, from then on I believe that things will begin to be seen in a different way, the way and style come into play. of the player, and a series of things that are relevant.
756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A call to self-examining our gambling habit. on: March 17, 2024, 11:00:46 PM
Time control and money management is something that can indeed stop some of the things that arise in us in gambling, such as greed, impulsivity, compulsive attitudes and things that can trigger our emotions to become disorganized and our mentality becomes bad because of being carried away.
So that's why time management is very important, one of which is knowing when you have to work, when you gather family, when you worship and when and how long you gamble in a week or day, but I'm pretty sure many people miss this and don't care about time issues, because indeed time discipline in life is the most difficult thing for anyone to do, because people who can manage their time are happy people.
It's interesting what you say, because I was thinking about that type of strategy for a long time, I think that sometimes when you enter a casino, and you start playing, the longer you play, I think it is much more difficult to win, but if you play Opportunities increase quickly, or they are lost all at once.

Of course I don't know how efficient that style of play will be, but when I'm playing for example dice, if I play and bet hard and until I win I don't fold, what happens is that sometimes the system sees our intention and doesn't let us play, etnonce shay to change the strategy, maybe last a little longer but to win safely, but these things are not fibale, in fact for a long time I was trying that, but it didn't give me much results, etnonce the best What you can reach as a conclusion is that time does not influence much, what influences is spending the money that one is allowed to lose, without risking our status quo, because you cannot have the irresponsibility of spending more than normal , because it is sometimes difficult to spend the money that is earned with so much work and effort.

757  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does casino streamers have influence in your gambling life? on: March 17, 2024, 10:46:08 PM
Casino streamers may influence gambling behaviour by showcasing wins or losses, but it's crucial to recognize that their experiences are not representative of typical outcomes. Responsible gambling decisions should be based on personal limits, and awareness of odds, and not solely on influencers' experiences.
You are right, whether or not the casino helps the streamer win, because as a player one must see many things here, first of all that the game that the streamer has is to our liking, because a streamer can play a game very well but if I don't like it, I simply appeal not to see it, but if the game is to my liking I consider that, but if the casino helps the extremer, I want to see what his strategies are like, but if the casino doesn't help him, A streamer will always have money because he dedicates himself to that and his sponsors make it easier for him and he can do it however he wants to play, so when I see a streamer I basically look at how he plays, what strategies he applies and how he makes his bets.

So based on these premises, one realizes that things could be going in the right direction, but believing 100% in a streamer is not my style, so when one sees many streamers one can realize which streamer may be sponsored , which casino is making it win on purpose and how I was able to extract any type of strategy to innovate in our own game.

In this case, things with streamers must be treated very carefully, and always investigate very well because there are some who are very famous and they have no need to deceive people.

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

People will hardly understand this advise because once they start gambling they never become tired of it but wants to continue gambling just because of having earning way. There is no doubt that at start people are gambling just for fun and if they become successful at first bet then their interest increases because they think that their luck is shining which will always help them to win in gambling.

People start to accumulate money from others just to continue gambling and they don't think how they will return that loan amount to the owner but without any worries play again and again just for the hope to win more. They avoid problems but cannot leave gambling but I think we should avoid gambling just to make our life prosperous if we are not successful in gambling.

What you say is very real, basically the things that have a lot to do with this, the people or the majority think that they will always be lucky, that by Betting just a little they will recover and will be able to pay everything they owe, that is u somewhat reckless thought but that unfortunately lives within many players, I would say that when things are tried to be done in different ways, seeing the game as if it were just fun, it is the ideal, but not all the time the ideal is only what is see and what is done, because the ideal is what you Always want to Achieve , but it is Difficult because the purpose of the game is for the person to get excited and start playing and playing and have to depend on that type of fun, where if It is not controlled, it can go to other levels where things can be dangerous, because there can be decapitation of money, and that is where the problems begin, in fact it is one of the things that have the most problems in the World and arises Thanks to the Lack of money. .

The concept of fun in the game is what a person who has already been through many things assumes and does it, takes it that way, but I think this is for People who have had a lot of Experience, it is Difficult to Reach a level of Maturity of that Style , but you have to Try to see The casino , the Game of that way to protect yourself.
759  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: March 17, 2024, 10:11:04 PM
What will be your suggestion for my friend to recover from the gambling addiction.
Your friend is not only trying to recover from his losses but also still really enjoys every gamble he takes even though he has lost a lot, that's what I think.
My advice is to take him to a professional to start undergoing treatment for his addiction because advice will not open up his awareness that his condition will get worse, especially financially and very likely followed by other things such as his mental health because he only focuses on gambling, and you can also ask his family for help to persuaded him to take treatment so he could recover from his addiction.
This is very correct, you could also try making him practice a sport, something that can make him tired, it is not necessarily a sport that is difficult to practice or do, it could be a sport like athletics, like going to the Gym, the idea It is that the person wakes up a little from that desire to play in the casino, because when he gets married, he will not have much desire or strength to play in the casino, because he will basically be tired, but it has to be a sport that he is passionate about, or Let them see that it is something they might like a lot, I think that can be attacked with entertainment, let them be a person who says they have to take care of their health with sports, sometimes that can be a great option to enter. .

So given these things, we can say that professional help is the best, a psychologist, psychiatrist, clinic, but this involves money, from what I have seen in Europe and northern countries this type of care is very expensive, so a The solution could be that of sports, and also economical and would do very good for your health.

There are people who drown their sorrows by running, practicing athletics, because I know some who have gone through situations not of addiction, but of very strong things and to get rid of all that pain they practice athletics every day, others ride a bicycle and enter that world of where it is much healthier.

Who does gambling addiction affect the most?
Just do google search and
Gambling addiction can have far-reaching consequences, impacting not only the person battling the addiction but also their close family members. It's difficult to pinpoint who bears the brunt of the impact, as it can differ based on individual situations and family dynamics.

So its hard but in pool I pick the gamble itself because he/she who do gambling know what they doing so the addiction might hit personal first rather than family or a friend.
Mostly family. Even if the gambling addict is away from home, there will be parents that will always think about him and if ever he/she is in trouble they will come running and help him.
Personally, a gambling addict might be enjoying himself while he does his bad habit while those who don't gamble will never understand why he keeps on doing that even if it's already damaging him mentally.
That's why those who care for him will be the ones doing the thinking. I doubt a parent can sleep at night if ever they receive news about his son/daughter being a gambling addict. They will definitely think about him first and try to reach out. I am a parent so I would know and we have different traditions when it comes to offering a helping hand to our relatives, what more with your own blood? If a gambling addict have a family of his own, I bet they will be the ones who will be affected the most and next to them will be the parents of the trouble one.

If that the case what do you think about gambling when the parent also do gambling and the son know about their parent and the crazy part both of them know and sometime watch each other to play gamble. Because this story happen to my friend his family and relative do gamble and watch a gamble as a usual thing
If you see the game as always, the only thing I can say is that I hope those people are rich or have a very high economic situation, because it is very sad that that family is decapitalized and falls into a critical situation where they have nothing to eat, lose their house and all because they cannot pay for the services and they cannot do anything About it , because the danger of gambling and falling into addiction is that the player does not care about spending money when he is addicted, the player simply wants to continue playing and playing without having take into account the danger that this implies.

I know that people can play and do Whatever they want because everyone is the owner of their money, but I think that if a person and a family lead a life like this where they are very addicted to gambling, then they must have a good income that allows them to support themselves. an acceptable and prosperous life, or at least be comfortable, and there comes a time when they get bored of gambling and dedicate themselves to something else , because that also seems dangerous to me.

And for me these types of family events are not healthy at all, you can play and have fun, but I think there should be control, at least in the money that is being Spent.
