Yes that's true but I think that applies only to those who have a healthy and normal mind in gambling, and come only for fun, and obviously if they come with the aim of just having fun then any temptation that comes might not affect it. Yes that's right, the odds of winning are obviously lower than the odds of losing are very high, and indeed they have set it up, I mean the casino has set it all up and their goal is none other than to seek profit from the defeat of the gamblers in the casino.

So actually if they are aware of the basic concept between wins and losses, they should be able to restrain themselves if they have experienced one defeat and no longer continue with the intention of returning losses in the previous time. But yes, maybe it will be in vain because indeed if they do not have poor control, such advice will not matter at all.
Casinos do use well-thought-out plans to make the most money possible by taking advantage of the mistakes people make

But the problem isn't always a lack of control; it can also be a false sense of power. Many players think wrongly that they can tip the odds in their favor, which keeps them losing over and over again. So, I don't agree with your claim that knowing the "basic concept between wins and losses" can be a safety measure. In gambling, the randomness and instability of the game often make it hard to understand how statistics work. Trying to be calm after losing usually doesn't work because of this

Yes, that's right, they have thought it through and of course it is done as I said above, which is none other than just to seek a lot of profit, the casino has arranged each round perfectly, they seem to have scheduled who will win today and who will lose, everything will roll and feel.

Yes but the average general case often happens like that, the lack of control can really make them eventually lose even though they initially won, usually it will be the main problem why their losses are too large or exceed the limits they have previously set, so that is the impact of a lack of self-control or maybe they are less assertive in applying it so that they are easily fooled by new temptations. For the problem of gamblers who have the wrong mindset, I agree with you, it seems like they want to try some new ways to then be able to create new winning opportunities, they hope it will work because the previous way can not meet expectations at all.

I said about gamblers having to know the "basic concept between winning and losing in gambling" is nothing but to make themselves think and research that it is just about luck, nothing more than that. Therefore, as you said, the randomness and instability of game rounds always make it difficult for us to read the statistics of where the results of our gambling will lead, whether winning or losing. I say the above concept because I think that even if you look for ways to be able to read the statistics of the game, I personally don't think it will be completely successful because as you have also said that the spins always occur randomly every time, so it is obviously almost impossible for us to predict whether we will win or lose. Honestly, my goal is just to advise some gamblers to stay relaxed in playing, don't put too much ambition, because the risk of losing there is very large, so just consider it entertainment. By knowing the real facts then I think there will be a sense of fear in them and they will not continue to gamble because they already know what the consequences are, I think this is quite useful and indirectly they have done a good self-control by restraining their lust.

Martin Odegaard is really a player to admire. This must be one of the best signings for Arsenal honestly. They signed him from Real Madrid for only 35 million euros. Now he has increased his market value to 90 million euros at the age of 24 already.  Smiley  Even Real Madrid must be really surprised to see his development this much.

He has been one of the most consistent players in Arsenal squad. That's why his value is increasing gradually. He is surely the second most important player for Arsenal right after Saka. He should definitely be kept for longer years. Arsenal aren't poor so they can pay him what he wants.
I think Odegaard has been an influential presence since arriving in Arsenal in 2021, and looks set to be an important figure for Mikel Arteta again this season as Arsenal chase the Premier League title. He had a good season last season scoring 15 non penalty goals and it’s something that I like about him. His current contract runs until June 2025, and looks like Arsenal want to begin discussions to extend his deal. I think it’ll be a good one if he decides to extend.

Well it is clear, the Norwegian player has now become part of an important player for Arsenal since he was brought in a few seasons ago from Real Madrid. As we know that Odegaard has more capacity and not only makes Arsenal's attack very dangerous for opponents and also last season he almost managed to bring Arsenal to win the Premier League. Therefore now Arteta trusts him so much that now Odegaard is also a leader in Arteta's squad. Next season he will help the Gunners fight again in the Champions League after they have been absent for the last five years, and yes it is true that his current contract is valid until 2025, yes obviously I also think that way. I mean now Arteta already knows that Odegaard is an important player in his squad and even Arteta already trusts him and with that I hope the manager will quickly make the decision to extend Odegaard's contract there,
because I'm sure Arteta also always wants the best for his squad by always being able to impress with Odegaard.

Oh yes lately I heard that because of his significant performance at Arsenal now Odegaard is being eyed by PSG, PSG wants to hijack him from Arsenal, but I haven't heard the latest news from these rumors.
783  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can i make 100 $ daily from online casinos on: September 10, 2023, 12:27:17 PM
We can earn 100 bucks a day. This is a more accessible way than playing for money to win. We will introduce friends and acquaintances. Or find a way to entice people to play at that online casino. We will receive a commission percentage from the people we invite to play. This will be the most effective way. But we must be good at promoting this website.
The commission percentage is actually quite large if we have a number of people who sign up to gamble through our guide, more precisely, online casinos provide us with separate links for us to advertise to them. However, in terms of ethics, it is a bit against ethics but after all, each person's behavior is their own choice, cannot complain about anything. The most difficult thing here is that the people we introduce may not play regularly and as a result the income of 100$ per day is unstable, instead, go out to do some work, this level of income is relatively easy in developed countries
sounds like earning from a referral program and this still depends on how much luck you have when you get whale gamblers who register on certain gambling sites through your referral link to get daily commissions and it will be very difficult if you dont have expertise in this field because spreading referral links is not It will be that easy, but if you are lucky like this forum user who once earned daily income from the referral program when he got whale gamblers who registered using his referral link.

btw, this scenario is actually about earning $100 from the bets we have made as in the OP and that is very difficult to do even joining a referral program if you do not know how to market the referrals will definitely be very difficult.

Well true, if I'm not mistaken those who become affiliates have a 25% bonus if the gambler loses and if the gambler wins they also still get a bonus but only 5%, that's what I heard from one of my colleagues who works at the casino or partners there. Therefore it is not uncommon for some agents from the casino to always tempt us to make a deposit and with the lure of a big win, even though it is just a trap, in fact after they play defeat always dominates. And yes, it's true as you say if they get one of the members, for example from among the rich, then obviously the bets they place must be very large and of course the bonuses that agents get are also bigger than usual. But yes it's true, it's not that easy and they are also just like other gamblers who can't escape the luck to get a lot of members.

I think for the scenario of wanting to earn $100 in gambling is possible but what is not possible is to earn such an amount consistently, obviously it is not possible. Like the title above and to be honest I never thought that there are some of them who can get any results consistently, the fact is that they will only win once and lose ten times.

The cycle of loss and the dangerous desire to "make up" is disturbing and dangerous. Unveiling the curtain, gaming systems are designed to keep you playing, which statistically increases loss.

Gamblers must comprehend the odds. If you're not familiar with probability and game theory, dont use a gambling platform. Money management can reduce losses, but without a mathematical foundation, damn, its hard to imagine. Recognize wins as random, not skill or fate. Walking away after a victory is a gambling survival skill, not a strategy.
Every gambler must know the risks so they can limit their gambling. Even though they may be tempted to keep playing, they can still protect themselves and their money because they know that their chances of winning are not as big as the chances of losing. People who gamble don't think about probability or game theory, at least most gamblers, because they just want to play and if they can, they win some money. But that's difficult to do because the odds will never be the same so when they play tomorrow, their chances of losing will probably be greater than their chances of winning. This is where they have to be aware of the risk of loss they can get from gambling so they really have to limit their gambling.

Yes that's true but I think that applies only to those who have a healthy and normal mind in gambling, and come only for fun, and obviously if they come with the aim of just having fun then any temptation that comes might not affect it. Yes that's right, the odds of winning are obviously lower than the odds of losing are very high, and indeed they have set it up, I mean the casino has set it all up and their goal is none other than to seek profit from the defeat of the gamblers in the casino.

So actually if they are aware of the basic concept between wins and losses, they should be able to restrain themselves if they have experienced one defeat and no longer continue with the intention of returning losses in the previous time. But yes, maybe it will be in vain because indeed if they do not have poor control, such advice will not matter at all.

That's why Bayern Munchen was able to dominate the Bundesliga for a decade, there are lots of big names they have orbited over the years. In the end, Dortmund management always let him go in the transfer market, and the consequences for the club were very real, namely a decline in performance.

Yes and indeed it is a very true statement according to the facts that occur, right with what you say with the habits that always occur in the Dortmund management that makes them lose many opportunities to win the Bundesliga or the Champion League which will all come back again for Bayern Munich. Honestly, maybe this is no longer a strange thing, and everyone may already know the fate of some potential players in Dortmund in the end they will immediately move to interested clubs in exchange for fantastic money. Yes, this will clearly interfere with the performance of Dortmund itself, it is not difficult for them to be able to perform well but what is difficult is to get good results consistently every season is clearly very difficult with business habits like that.

This season Laverkusen is a team that really deserves to challenge for the championship, and has the potential to break Munchen dominance. Xabi Alonso squad could be a serious challenge for Tuchel, the first three matches show they are very promising this season.

Well it's true, I see now that Xabi Alonso's squad is dominating the Bundesliga by successfully maintaining a position at the top of the standings and the point is now equal to Bayern Munich where Tuchel's squad is below them. Obviously it looks like the season now is no longer Dortmund who will disturb Bayern Munich but Leverkusen, they look very strong in the first three matches of the season now by always being able to win full points at the end of the match, honestly this should be Tuchel's full attention, because Leverkusen can be a big threat if Bayern Munich continues to let them. So I hope Tuchel can further improve the performance of his club by continuing to win full points in the next match so that they can win the top position in the Bundesliga.
786  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots with the purchase of bonus games - is it good or bad? on: September 09, 2023, 01:59:48 PM
If you really enjoy using the bonus feature, it means you can accept the consequences because most gamblers find it difficult to accept it like you. They will grumble because they can't get a lot of money or at least reach the BEP to get their money back. And after that, they will buy the bonus feature again with the same hope but that also doesn't guarantee they can win much money. Maybe only people with a large balance can buy the bonus feature repeatedly because they will not see it as difficult to do, especially if they have a lot of money in their gambling account. This differentiates it from most gamblers because those who can use the bonus feature can repeat it many times even though their chances of winning will not be greater than those who only buy it less than 5 times.
This is why if you want to gamble you must only use money you can afford to lose.

If you think bonus feature will give you a huge win and 100% guarantee you will earn, it's really a wrong mindset. It has nothing to do with the probability to win, there's always a house edge and it will make the house will win in the long run.

Well that's right, that's the first mindset that every gambler should have, prepare the money they can afford to lose or maybe don't mind whatever happens there, and also the second is to accept all the consequences at the end of the round, accept all the final answers gracefully, it should be like that but unfortunately their expectations are too high that makes them forget to go home and rest their minds that are already chaotic and that's the same thing you keep creating problems for your life through gambling.

Exactly, the truth is that whatever is in the scope of gambling is just nonsense such as bonus features, still you should not put too high expectations on anything that is there, because it is just luck and nothing more than that.
787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: September 09, 2023, 01:24:54 PM
To your question is yes. The number of rich men who gamble are fewer than the poor people who gamble but the rich people are also gambling for money and fun. It they gamble with money loss the bet they will not happy about that and the fun of the game will not be interested but whereby the game was won then the fun is also continues. Money is not satisfactory to anyone so everyone is still looking for money. And why the lower class gamble more than the rich people is because the lower has nothing to do for a living so they gamble more than the rich people. The rich people are busy with their office works.

Well, it is true that this is the real case and fact, which is that more poor people gamble and have high hopes than rich people. As you said above, rich people come just for fun and maybe spend a little time but poor people are like the opposite, they come with the unreasonable intention of multiplying the money they bring even though the amount is small.

Yes, I understand that maybe the strongest reason for them to turn to gambling is because it is difficult to find a job or or find income to increase their finances, so it's only natural that they come with such a goal, but still I hope there will always be some people around him who tell him. Because if they keep doing that then maybe for some time to come they won't be able to eat.

Quote from: Silence Scream link=topic=1877785.msg62812693#msg62812693
Media is like that. He always wants to make interesting headlines and since Liverpool fans know that Salah does not want to leave, they want to publish the news accordingly. Every headline about Salah directly concerns Liverpool fans and they feel the need to go and look at the news content. This also benefits reporters.
Liverpool fans should be happy they didn't lose Salah to the Saudi side cause it would had been a great loss for them this season and would had probably killed the moral of the team just like it happened when Mane left to Bayern Munich in 2022, Salah is  very important player for Liverpool as stated by their coach Jurgen Klopp and would probably stay for a season or two but I doubt if he'll be in Liverpool next summer because the money Al-ittihad had offer to pay him weekly is so tempting and would make him one of the highest paid players and he might be tempted to move over there especially if Liverpool failed to qualify for the Champions League again this season, well If moves by then it won't really be a very big lose cause they too would cash in on a huge amount of money from his sale, and the money they offered is very big to get a good replacement for Salah by then.
They will be back definitely. Salah Fits the profile, and Liverpool know. They will use this time to scout a potential replacement for when the Saudi's return with another offer when the transfer window opens again. They even need the money too.

For the now, Liverpool should celebrate and plan.

Well it could be, maybe the offer from the Saudi Arabian club now does not bring any results even with a fantastic new offer amount, but that failure is unlikely to make the Arabian club give up, it is not a reason not to come back again in the upcoming transfer market.

Don't be surprised if later when Al Ittihad returns it is very clear they will offer more than the current amount and obviously maybe it will be able to shake Klopp's decision a little, on the other hand yes I am also aware that M.Salah is a very important player there, he is like the heart of Liverpool but with a very fantastic amount of money maybe Klopp will not waste the opportunity, the article with this money he could get 2 players at once. It's true they need money to make various new updates in the squad and I think this could be the main reason for Klopp to sell him in the next few seasons when the offer comes again, but we will see.
790  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mistake that prevented your big win. on: September 08, 2023, 12:01:14 PM
The most common one I could see seems to be people just getting overtly greedy about their win and want more wins and they just keep betting more and more instead of withdrawing their wins which causes the trouble obviously. I think it should be noted that if you are playing just to have some fun then that's alright and you shouldn't really be doing anything that will change that, keep on gambling the way you want to and you should be fine because all you care about is fun and if you are having fun that's fine.

However, if your aim is to make some money then I would suggest to stay away from it and not really keep gambling, just get the win and withdraw it and move on, you can come back later, but do not keep going at that moment.

It's not that they can't get a win but the win can come suddenly but because of greed it goes to waste and they simply can't take advantage of the opportunity to make a withdrawal and enjoy the winnings, they instead go back to playing again with a higher nominal bet because of greed and hope to get a bigger win, this will always be a barrier and also a big challenge for them. Even though they have won but still it does not mean a real victory because as I said above after that they will face the name of greed, and rarely they can get through it well, I mean rarely they are grateful for the victory even though the amount is quite large for some other people. Yes, what you said is true, it will go back to their original purpose of coming there, whether to seek victory or just for fun.

Obviously if their goal is to make a profit then I have to say that they need to be able to set a lot of self-control and also certain limits, stopping after winning and withdrawing is better than you get nothing, and also stopping when losing is also very important so that you don't suffer too much loss there. But I suggest that if you have a goal to win you better not gamble, because obviously the impact will be very bad, something that is based on passion and high expectations is not good, so it's better to gamble with a healthy mind and with the basic concept of gambling that should be, it's just for fun, nothing more.
791  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: September 08, 2023, 11:21:12 AM
Online gambling, be it slots or any other game, is always rigged in favor of the house. Anyone claiming consistent success is likely stretching the truth.

Well that's very reasonable, even if no one told me about this statement I would still suspect it, I mean there must be something cheating in the slot machine, they (the bookie) always focus on their own interests and that means the profit is not for the player but for the house itself, and you are just tricked with various big expectations there when in fact it's just nonsense.


You mentioned sports betting as a seemingly better option because one can analyze teams to predict outcomes. No analysis guarantees success. Even the best football analysts get it wrong often. Why? Because games aren't played on paper! Unexpected things happen: injuries, poor referee decisions, or just a bad day for a player.

Well I say that because in my view it is very different although in essence it is still gambling which is not good to do at all. Well I understand what I said earlier does not mean that they gamblers can fully get a win by doing analysis, but I said it was just for a little chance for them to see some advantages of the club they chose compared to the opposing club, they can see the last few matches of the club they bet on, it will be able to produce an answer whether they will believe in that club or not at all. It's true though that the things you mentioned could happen because there's really no telling what will happen on the pitch, such as an unbalanced refereeing decision or an injury to a player that could create a significant void there. But again, I'm just saying they could have a bit of a say with the chance of analysis.


Your point about investment taking longer to yield results compared to the allure of instant gambling winnings nails a universal human trait: impatience. But remember, slow and steady investment wins the financial race. Gambling? That's just tossing your hard-earned money into the wind and hoping some of it sticks.

Yeah and it's a common concept that people have in looking at things, I think everyone shares this because I'm saying this honest statement that makes sense. As you mentioned above, impatience is always the main problem there and yes it will hinder victory in future financial trials. The point is that one must have common sense if they want to gamble.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 07, 2023, 03:38:34 PM
Borussia Dortmund is a very good team. This is a team that have transfer structure, they don't just spend on player that don't worth. Though right now the club is going through a rehebilation process . They brought in Sébastien Haller, who scored couples of goals for the team .
Dortmund is actually one of the best teams in the German Bundesliga; they are always rated behind Bayern Munich due to their quality players and their experimentation in the league.

My only problem with Dortmund is their lack of consistency in keeping their star players in the team; they always mean business because if you offer them money for their best player, who is very important to the team, they will sell the player without having several thoughts. That is why Bayern is always rated above them in the Bundesliga. But right now, the team has signed some players and is building back their team in order to be a strong opponent for Bayern and other teams in the league.

It is true that Dortmund and Bayern Munich always go hand in hand, but Dortmund always cannot achieve something significant in the competition for the title so they always lag behind Bayern Munich. Yes, it seems that almost everyone already knows about the habits that Dortmund likes to do, they have the ability to shape a player to be extraordinary, but unfortunately their goal is not to improve the performance of the squad in every match but only focuses on selling players with the aim of making big profits, we can see how Haaland at Manchester City. Yes and it is absolutely true that there is absolutely no doubt for them to exchange their flagship players for fantastic amounts of money, so it is only natural that their performance is always inconsistent every season, but yes according to them maybe money is more important there and for the end of this season it is very likely that Bayern Munich will again become the Bundesliga champion.
793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: September 07, 2023, 02:52:48 PM
Can't adopted as gambling is the main source income, we are gambling and never any platform will make us easily in the winning trend every time betting, impossible any website gambling make us richest than in the reality the owner of gambling can earn much money or profitable. For enjoying moment awhile with gambling platform is not matter but don't try to make gambling is the way for main income because can loss all money we have for getting winning in gambling.
Have more experience is not important in gambling platform because not guarantee will win every bet time and keep away with mindset gambling for main source income in daily day.

That is normal as no man on earth can win every bet they place I assume in sport betting because in slot machines that is plain impossible.Even in sports where analysis and different star players make a difference it can be difficult to have it as a source of income as anyone can hit a streak of lost bets which can be enough to be devastating to one's family economy.

The best thing to do as some scholars say is to invest money you are willing to lose in gambling in something else,this way you get two good things out of one deed,your gambling dependence will slow down and you can also have side benefits from the investments you make.

Yes and I also don't believe at all that any of them or even one in a hundred people can always get consistent results there, obviously it's impossible because the basic concept of gambling is just for fun for those who have little money they can afford to lose. That's true and I would also say that it's entirely for betting like in a real slot machine that relies solely on luck. I think sports betting and slot machines are different, which in sports betting itself is not too bad in terms of luck because there we can slightly increase the chances of winning with some analysis of one of the clubs we bet on.

That's right it looks better, choosing to allocate your money to other alternatives such as investment is better because in terms of risk it is also the same and maybe even in investment you will not be too bad as in gambling. But the problem is that they want instant winnings that they can immediately feel while investing may take a longer time to get profits. Therefore, most of them choose gambling even with a very high level of risk.
794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction. on: September 07, 2023, 02:09:22 PM
It is normal if we fail to resist temptation because we are still humans who can be weak at any time. But we must keep trying to resist the temptations that arise so we don't return to gambling. We must be able to do our best and never give up if we fail because failure is a delayed success. And by increasing your daily activities, you can eliminate the desire to gamble until finally, you really don't think about gambling anymore and when that happens, you will see how much money you can save and not use for gambling. And in your friend's case, I think he will slowly recover and not think about gambling so that he can live a normal life like you and be healthier in his activities.

Well that's true too, and it does make sense. Humans are fallible and their minds can also be very distracted by some things that come along that they find interesting, as is the case in this gambling. Well I consider it natural and I also understand how their conditions there. Well that's right, there is no failure, it might just be an obstacle that prevents them from stopping, but well it doesn't matter if they really have the full intention and seriousness to stop. For people who are serious about quitting I honestly believe that it is not a failure but a challenge whether they are able to do it harder or even retreat from the battlefield.

By reducing the budget for gambling, he can help reduce the possibility of losing from gambling so that he can still have his money. Increasing his daily activities will help him block thoughts that can lead him to gamble so he can forget about gambling and just focus on doing his daily activities. In that way, we can cure his addiction to gambling and maybe it won't take long as long as he continues to carry out his daily activities routinely.

Yes as we discussed in the previous session, there are two ways that look better in this problem, whoever it is needs to add the thing we discussed here if they really want to quit and that is to add other activities (keep yourself busy) and reduce the budget level every time they want to bet. Keep in mind that all these actions will not be in vain, switch your mind to a more reasonable logic. I think if we think normally this won't be too difficult, but yes they kind of magnify the problem themselves.
795  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: newbie with newbie questions on: September 06, 2023, 03:20:17 PM
Risk management?
In trading I think you can never make a real profit if you don't have any risk management in place, the profit may be there but the losses will definitely be higher than the winnings because there are no limits that you apply. As a trader, risk management seems to be a must-have thing, such as stop los and take profit, but I say not only that, because besides that you also need a strong mental and psychological, it is very important because it's useless if you have a good strategy but can't use it properly because your mental and psychological are always opposite for example.

So the point is that in trading anyone must have the right plan before they enter the market, remember the market is very volatile and you will be easily fooled there, so use a plan that you trust with some restrictions there as I said earlier, namely stop los and take profit and also train your mental and psychological because it will be very useful for making the right decisions. So by doing this at least you will be able to minimize some losses and also so that you avoid the name MC.
796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: September 06, 2023, 02:53:54 PM
I don't recommend gambling to anyone who doesn't have a stable job. Without a reliable source of income, you're at a high risk of losing your money quickly when you're hoping for a profit. However, for gamblers who already have a steady income from their real-life jobs, gambling can be considered as a form of entertainment to test their luck and not considering it as a job.

Almost all the friends in my neighborhood they are quite active gamblers but honestly I never bring or suggest them to gamble, they seem to know themselves about this gambling, and there is one of them who always tells me about the many losses he suffered, I can only give him a little advice because honestly I am also a gambler so we are difficult to find a very good solution because our minds are already a little influenced by gambling. The point is that as we are discussing, if my friends had known about gambling from me or at my offer then it is very likely that they would have come to me with the intention of blaming and not to ask for solutions as above. As you say, I've honestly never been interested nor have I ever had the courage to recommend gambling to others because obviously at some point they will always blame me.

Oh yeah to be honest last night one of my friends who doesn't know anything about gambling saw me gambling, and he said "please teach me, I want to try my luck", honestly after that I only said one word to him which was "Don't". I don't want my friend who started out fine to end up bad because of gambling, even though he said he would only try it once but I still wouldn't teach him because this would only add to his problems. Honestly, I am already at the regret stage in gambling, I don't want others to feel the same way.

That's right and it's important that we have self-control there, it will be very useful and it's the only cure so that we don't get too down there. Yes I agree with you and it's a good option to choose rather than continue to spend a lot of time gambling it's better to find other activities that are more useful and it's a good alternative for most gamblers who may want to quit but don't know how. I think economic factors can also make them finally come to gamble, I have a colleague who can be said to be lower middle class and he said that his goal was to gamble to increase his pocket money, and I think this is an absurd statement, remember this is just about luck. Basically, winning has made them lose their mind, someone who has won one win then it is very likely that the next time they will sacrifice ten losses due to the belief that they will win again.

Yes they can reduce the rate of loss by reducing the amount of money they deposit. Basically I think there is no better option except to stop gambling with a very strong determination, because it is useless it will only make them not okay in the future.
And with good self-control, we can get through it and won't be tempted to return to gambling. We know that playing gambling for too long and too often can cause us to become addicted and over time, we can become gambling addicts that we might not even realize. If we can look for other entertainment alternatives besides gambling, I think we can reduce our time gambling and maybe we will forget about gambling without realizing it. That is because we have found things that can attract our attention and provide more entertainment than gambling. In your friend's case, I think he should be able to change his mindset about increasing his pocket money from gambling because he will not always be able to win from gambling. He might lose more often than win so he could use more money because he wants to get more wins.

They will not suffer too much loss by reducing the amount they deposit. For example, if they play today with enough money and lose, the loss will not increase until they lose all their money. They can deposit another amount of money in the future to gamble but as long as they remember, the amount of money must remain limited. I agree with you that quitting gambling with a very strong determination would be a good solution for all gamblers, even though many are still unable to do it.

Well although sometimes there are those who fail to resist the temptation, their mentality is not strong enough to withstand all the temptations that come to their minds so sometimes there are some of them who end up gambling again. But I still have to applaud them because at least they have done the best things for them even though they failed but they will definitely try again. Yes, it is true that if you are serious about quitting then the first thing is to increase your daily activities, occupy your time with more positive activities, do not let you have the slightest empty time there because obviously the feeling of wanting to gamble will definitely come, and also besides that reducing the budget is a good choice, you will not experience too much loss if you can reduce the budget in gambling. And also for the case of my friend now I am trying to help him, doing various ways so that his mind can recover and understand the true concept of gambling.

Yes, that's right, so the point is to reduce the budget for gambling and try to increase daily activities so that we will indirectly forget about gambling, as we know this feeling of gambling always comes when we have full time and expect to win even though it's just nonsense. Yes that's right, basically there is nothing better than to stop doing it, the future is more important.

Al-Ittihad has again made an offer for Mohamed Salah and this time the amount is so fantastic 251 million euros. Could it be that this time it will be quite difficult for Liverpool to refuse the offer from the Saudi league team? and I think maybe that kind of money could be put to good use to buy new players next winter according to the club's needs. Mohamed Salah is already 31 years old and Liverpool should start thinking about who will be his successor. But the problem is that if Mohamed Salah leaves at the start of this season it will clearly be a loss for Liverpool because they have not prepared a suitable replacement. Now Liverpool will definitely be very confused by this big offer and let's see what steps Liverpool take. Will they let go of their star player or will they keep him?
Well if Al Ittihad is successfully sign Salah, this will be the biggest transfer in football history since the current biggest transfer is Neymar where PSG sign him for 222 Million Euros from Barcelona. I think Liverpool will let Salah to join Al Ittihad if the offer is really that big because they can buy 2 star players to replace Salah's position. It just need a time to see official announcement from Fabrizio Romano.

Well that's right, if indeed the last offer from Al Ittihad is approved by Liverpool considering the amount is very fantastic then clearly M. Salah will become the most expensive player in the history of Saudi Arabia, and this amount will beat the transfer fee of Neymar who has gone there first. Yes, with this fantastic amount, only a small part of several European clubs can then reject the offer, but I think it looks like Klopp will take the same action as the previous one where he rejected the first offer from Al Ittihad.

Previously as we know M. Salah is an important player for Liverpool with various significant contributions that he has made to his squad. Yes, it is true that if Klopp accepts this offer then it makes sense they will be able to bring in two players at once to replace him, but in my opinion Klopp will not be rash in his decision in this case, previously he had also rejected the first offer from the fantastic Al Ittihad and the reason is clear that the manager is more concerned with his club than money. So for the answer to this new offer, I think it's possible that Klopp will reject it again. But let's just see later.

What else do we really need to know about gambling and it's risk involved than what is expected of us to be careful in betting, knowing that whenever we play, we have the chance to loose or win, they we should always gambling with the rate of amount we could afford to loose, if we want to play less of risk while gambling, then we shouldn't force ourselves gambling when we think we are not financially capacitated and we should not borrow money to gamble as well, because when gambling, it's either we loose or win and there's more likely possibilities for loosing than winning.
What you said about people who force themselves to gamble so they borrow money is not from the true principles of gambling, because basically people who gamble are those who want pleasure, and of course they have to have money first before gambling, if they insist on borrowing money. In my opinion, that is beyond the limit, like how can he be responsible in gambling, just making a deposit using other people's money.
Good or bad, losing or winning, it's definitely not a chance that you mean, but people who have good responsibility in gambling, don't care if they win or lose, because in the beginning they want pleasure, not winning, winning is a bonus, and definitely using money they were prepared to lose.

Yes, that's right, it's not included in the principle of gambling at all, it's just the actions of someone who is too imposing his desires based on high self-confidence. I think the principle of gambling is nothing more than luck and fun, if you follow the advice then you will get fun from a few rounds there and fun is not entirely about winning. If you are lucky then you will win and vice versa. Well it is true that if they are gambling with borrowed money then it can be said that they are irresponsible gamblers, they cannot afford to deposit with their own money so they look for other ways such as borrowing.

Yes and it seems right to say that people who have responsibility in gambling are those who are ready for all the risks involved in it, especially defeat, but they will not force something just to gamble because they have previously understood how the risk is if they are too forceful something that only depends on luck. The point is that people who have responsibility in gambling are those who already understand everything that is there, as you say fun is the main thing for them, if they get a win then obviously they will be happier and if they lose they look normal. Jari let's think healthier when we want to gamble.

As long as we can control ourselves in gambling, we can reduce our gambling activities, especially if we have other things to do so that we will not busy ourselves with just gambling. But usually, if we are already involved in gambling, we will get pleasure and the pleasure will make us want to continue playing gambling even until our money runs out. But if they realize that by gambling, they still cannot have the opportunity to earn money and can decide to stop or reduce it immediately, they will be fine. They will not experience gambling addiction like other people.

You can do many things to reduce your gambling activities and the amount of money deposited into your gambling account. But we have to be really disciplined in doing it because if we don't, we can forget and end up depositing a larger amount of money and continuing to play gambling. If that happens, we cannot reduce gambling activities and may even experience gambling addiction.

That's right and it's important that we have self-control there, it will be very useful and it's the only cure so that we don't get too down there. Yes I agree with you and it's a good option to choose rather than continue to spend a lot of time gambling it's better to find other activities that are more useful and it's a good alternative for most gamblers who may want to quit but don't know how. I think economic factors can also make them finally come to gamble, I have a colleague who can be said to be lower middle class and he said that his goal was to gamble to increase his pocket money, and I think this is an absurd statement, remember this is just about luck. Basically, winning has made them lose their mind, someone who has won one win then it is very likely that the next time they will sacrifice ten losses due to the belief that they will win again.

Yes they can reduce the rate of loss by reducing the amount of money they deposit. Basically I think there is no better option except to stop gambling with a very strong determination, because it is useless it will only make them not okay in the future.
