You have to do this by adjusting your abilities, because if you do it too much, it will only make your mind confused, maybe what will happen is pressure that we cannot accept, which can trigger stress. Of course, excessive pressure will affect your mental health. In my opinion, risking 1% on gambling will not be a problem if we can control ourselves well, because if we cannot control ourselves well then everything is the same, the possibility that will happen is that we gamble again after experiencing defeat.
I agree with you, gambling is not a competition and is not a way to make money for sure, gambling is just a game which has a bad impact if we respond to it wrongly, like responding to it is the same as a means of making money for sure, of course if that's the case what will happen is losing a lot just money and it affects our mentality. There are also many cases of people committing suicide due to excessive stress due to excessive gambling.
Your comment about altering abilities is spot-on. The key is profound comprehension of one's limits and talents, not just adjustment. Do you think pushing oneself mentally causes chaos and confusion? Balance is what the mind, a magnificently intricate organism, needs, not overwhelming waves of excess pressure that cause stress and despair

Gambling is a mirage that too many chase into the emptiness. Your 1% risk rule? It's a razor's edge between control and disaster. The key is self-control, which many struggle with because the pleasure of the risk often overshadows the reality of loss and emotional suffering

The sadness of individuals forced to give up on lost wagers serves as a sharp reminder of the worst consequences of gambling. More than money is lost; lives and potential are destroyed. Thus, the call to arms is awareness and accountability, to see gambling as a mental health risk as well as a financial risk
Obviously forcing yourself to gamble isn't a good thing, right?
Is forcing yourself to continue gambling good, friend?
I don't think so, indeed we have to have a balance, in gambling of course this is necessary, we have to be able to balance the time for gambling and the budget for gambling, because of course that will help us avoid things we don't want, such as big losses. , because many people gamble and experience big losses, they gamble without having set limits.
you mentioned the key is deep understanding, and then you said the key is self-control. In my opinion, just saying self-control says it all. What is clear is that we should not gamble excessively, bet according to our abilities. do not gamble beyond our means, because it will be a disaster. Don't let us gamble too much so that we experience our own losses.

Aside from signature campaign, yes there is so many other ways to promote a casino like using the Instagram advert and order social media platform but the most effective for me in media there is some gaming apps. They also help sometimes when playing a game like the dice it pop out as an ad and it will really go into peoples mind because each time people are playing game they see it as gamble. It’s not actually the same but game , a gamble and normal game to most people playing some online games can actually interested in your adds, i’m sometimes he may not just use any influencer or a celebrity or you need to do is to create a video. That is very quality, Let it be a video that shows the casino promotion by yourself,You can use your face and do it but make sure you promote it properly.
In my opinion, this has become a certain thing, with the internet now becoming more and more advanced, of course companies will definitely make the best use of this, as you said, by placing advertisements on Instagram or other things. and with that, of course they will also place tempting advertisements such as holding bonuses or promotions with the aim of attracting many people to gamble at their new casino. and I'm sure one way to do this is to take advantage of internet developments.
Now I often see a lot of people gambling by broadcasting live broadcasts, and I often see them always getting big wins, maybe that's because they collaborate with a gambling company, because it's impossible for them to win easily if they don't cooperate with the company. gambling. just like the influencers who helped advertise his new casino. Their goal is profit so they will definitely do anything to make a profit, even by placing advertisements they will definitely spend some money. However, even so, it is certain that in the short term you will be able to get back the money spent on placing the advertisement.

Choosing the most convenient and enjoyable time to engage in the activity is a wise act of gamblers. Indeed, the experience of gambling can vary greatly depending on factors such as timing, mood, and personal circumstances. Gambling serves as a form of entertainment and relaxation that provides an opportunity to unwind and enjoy some leisure time. Selecting a time when they feel most comfortable and relaxed can fully immerse themselves in the experience and savor every moment of it.

Taking the time to gamble when you feel mentally prepared and able to think clearly can enhance the enjoyment of the activity. Being able to make rational decisions and fully engage with the game can contribute to a more positive and fulfilling gambling experience. Some may prefer to gamble quickly or impulsively, and others may derive greater satisfaction from taking their time and savoring the experience. The choice of when and how to gamble is a personal one, and what matters most is that individuals approach the activity with mindfulness and moderation, ensuring that it remains a source of enjoyment rather than a source of stress or hardship.
For wise gamblers, in my opinion, they can manage everything well, can balance their time, budget and attitude towards the gambling they do. As you said, choosing the right or comfortable time is a wise way to gamble. In my opinion, gambling must be done at the right time, such as in our free time, because gambling must be played and enjoyed well, don't let gambling mess up our emotions, because gambling done with emotions is certainly not something that is wrong. Good.
I agree with you that thinking clearly can increase the enjoyment of gambling, with clear thinking I also think gambling will run well, with many cases of problematic gambling perhaps it is because they do it with confused thinking, such as being too ambitious in pursuing victory, so it actually traps them themselves. we must do gambling properly as true entertainment as you say, not as a source of stress and problems.
984  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making decisions while betting on: March 17, 2024, 05:01:31 PM
You are completely correct; heated emotions can lead to rash actions and irrational choices. When we are emotional, our prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for decision-making, may become less active. This makes it difficult for us to consider the ramifications of our actions and make sound decisions.
To keep our emotions from clouding our judgment, we might take a step back and try to examine the matter objectively. This is known as "emotional distancing," and it can help us make more sound decisions. We can also try to recognize and classify the emotions we're experiencing, which can help us understand why we're feeling this way and how it's influencing our thinking.
Finally, it can be helpful to take some time to calm down and relax before making a decision.
I agree with this, it is true that if we do something with emotions it will cause problems by making careless decisions, not considering it first. In fact, I don't think it's only in gambling, in other things it's the same even if things are not. is related to money, while gambling is clearly closely related to money, and if it is done emotionally then what will happen is a big problem such as losing all the money we have, because the urge from emotions continues to require us to gamble whether it is chasing wins or recovering losses.
If something we are doing is starting to get messy then we should just stop, before everything falls apart due to explosive emotions. However, in my opinion, not everyone can control themselves, including controlling their emotions well. There are many gamblers who cannot control themselves or their emotions, which causes large losses. It's a shame if gambling is done with emotional outbursts.

The internet is a means through which almost everyone around the world is reach via social medias and other platforms of forum like this one. New casinos market themselves through any forum, platform and forum which they are aware that they can get traffic and be able to reach a large number of audience from around the world. New casinos have different marketing strategy but I believe they uses the internet as a major source for their marketing because they believe and it it true that they can reach a good amount of audience from all over the world.
Currently, it is true that the internet is something that is quite important, even large companies and everyone spends their activities, most of which are related to the internet, and in my opinion of course this can be utilized by new casino companies, by utilizing social media networks they can put up attractive advertisements to make lots of people interested in gambling, with the fact that currently there are lots of gambling advertisements displayed on every social media, and I think almost all social media have casino gambling advertisements.
There are also many people now who gamble while broadcasting live broadcasts showing the gambling they are doing even though they are not members of the casino company, but even so, I think they have their own motives by looking for followers or making their own profit by using the referrals that have been provided. With the internet now, I think it's quite good for gambling companies to market their new casinos, because with that, I think there will be a lot of people who see it, with the fact that everyone definitely wants money that can be made quickly, but of course only people who think wrongly Only those who will gamble because they hope to make money by gambling.
986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stop gambling if you don’t have free time to do it on: March 17, 2024, 04:20:10 PM
I do gamble on several occasions but I don't mince my resting time with gambling I know it's not good because it's only one of many signs of gambling addiction. Never at a time should we make the mistake of giving up the time that is resourceful to our source of income to spend it on gambling as it would affect our productivity to work, perhaps also putting our job security at risk for an activity as gambling that is not reliable.

I don't like panicking while gambling because it doesn't make you stable to make better choices with your predictions in the case of sports games, and it doesn't make sense that I should not be enjoying an activity I was supposed to be enjoying just because am doing it at the wrong time and don't have much time to engage in it as should at a much free time.

We should gamble in moderation and in moderation as you do, because gambling excessively is not a good thing, especially when chasing victory, it is not recommended. There are people who gamble at the expense of part of their time, they even gamble for long sessions which is not recommended, such as gambling at work, in my opinion this should not be done, because during working hours we have to be professional with our work. which are owned.
I agree with you, basically I think gambling should be done in a relaxed manner, therefore it is better to gamble in your free time, because by enjoying gambling maybe it won't cause problems, rather than gambling with panic or fear. If you lose, it could be a potentially big problem, even though losses in gambling are certain to happen.
987  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you believe in savings or investment on: March 17, 2024, 04:00:48 PM
I agree with you, although investing can be profitable, it cannot be done by everyone, of course everyone has their own wishes, including managing their money. I myself don't think that saving is a bad thing, because it is a pretty good way of managing money. Many people save money to fulfill their desires, such as buying their dream property or gadgets and so on, and I think that's not bad, because then they have the will to try.
Meanwhile, for investment, of course we must have knowledge of aspects related to investment so that the investment made does not experience losses. because of course everyone doesn't want to experience financial losses. therefore not everyone invests. It's true that what you're doing might be better if we do it simultaneously, but make sure our finances are stable. Don't force yourself to be able to do both of these things simultaneously if your finances are unstable.
I think not all people aim to invest not because they’re not knowledgeable, but because they knew from the start that there are always high risk of losing from certain investments. There is no assurance of creating good ROI that’s why if they will only lose their money, then why do they have to risk their funds in investing when they can do all the saving and keeping a good amount consistently.

Sometimes, saving and investing do not compliment with each other. That’s why some people chose to stick to only one thing, either to focus on saving or stick to investing even without stable amount of savings.
It's true that not everyone wants to invest because there is a risk of loss, but I think this risk of loss can still be minimized by having good knowledge. Now if we have good knowledge or good skills, will we just leave it alone? I don't think so. we have to take advantage of it because there is an opportunity to make a profit. Also, if they invest, they should be able to accept the risk, because of course there is a risk in everything, it's just that the risk depends on us, if we do it well, it's possible that the risk will be small and maybe even avoidable.
I don't think saving is bad either, but there are some people who only focus on saving. and it's not mandatory, in my opinion everyone should invest or save at the same time, because of course everyone's finances are different, it's possible that they have limited income that only meets their needs, and even saving is only occasionally or forced. .
988  Economy / Economics / Re: How can it be possible coping with one source of income on: March 17, 2024, 03:42:21 PM
That's true, perhaps one way is to look for additional work or side work. but not everyone can do it, because to do this in my opinion it requires more energy and time which must also be taken into account, don't force ourselves to do it if it will torture ourselves. and with time, of course when we do extra work or side jobs we have to be able to manage our time, where we are also humans who have to have time to rest, too much work is not good for our health.
and if you are capable of everything going well, what you have to pay attention to is money management so that everything can be better, don't let having a side or additional job make us more wasteful in managing finances, when finances start to stabilize then we can think about save or invest if that is what you want, because not everyone wants to invest even though it has been recommended, and to make an investment of course we have to be able to pay attention to many things such as emergency funds and others.
That's true, but if one income or job doesn't match the expenses plus lots of bills to pay, that's stupidity that really needs to change. And there is no other reason than looking for additional income or additional work, because that is the only way to get out of income and expenditure inequality without considering the time and energy to do it. When talking about not having time or being tired, everyone definitely feels the same way for those who are struggling to improve their lives because their income is low or mediocre. However, they are required to do this until everything is stable and then think of other ways to still have income other than the fixed income they earn, for investment, business or other efforts for better survival.
Money management must also be paid attention to, if we have limited income, then try not to have a lot of bills to pay, try to minimize everything well, this is where money management is important, because there are people who have large incomes but often their income quickly runs out somewhere, I think people like this when they have money they only think about being able to buy what they want, not what they need, and when the money starts to run out, they realize that they are confused about where the money they have went, even if they fix it properly. Get used to recording expenses, maybe something like that won't happen.
Indeed, everyone definitely wants comfort in their lives, one of which is financial, of course if their finances improve or are stable then we won't panic or worry, if we really want financial freedom then we should be willing to fight for life by working hard to earn money. because that is the only right way, it's just that not everyone can do it, there are people who are lazy to work even though it is also for their own good.
989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Simple mistake that makes you lose everything on: March 17, 2024, 09:29:46 AM
I am a person who does not believe in strategy in gambling, because I think it is luck. I have heard a lot about this strategy used and to be honest, I have also used it, but in reality, I always lose, that's why I don't believe in strategies and things like that. Because logically a strategy can bring victory, many people have been successful in gambling if they use a strategy. But I don't see that now. I also wouldn't blame them for believing in the strategy, that's completely their right. It's just that for me, when something depends on luck, then all strategies don't work well.
This strategy requires us to double the bet every round, it allows us to spend money in a short time. And when we do that it doesn't increase our chances of winning. So consider everything, are we able to lose money in a short time because we hope for a strategy, or will we play normally as usual, because if luck comes to us then we won't miss out on winning, even without the strategy we use.
It's not just strategy that will win you over there. I have also personally tried various strategies to win at gambling but not always the strategy favour me. I've had some wins and some losses there. I'm pretty sure that strategy might give a gambler some advance clues to win but there's no guarantee that those clues are actually correct. Luck plays an important role in winning in gambling. It is never possible to win in gambling without luck. I can't find anyone who can win a bet for sure. I agree with you that if luck is good we can get a win even in an impossible bet. But no strategy is useful in gambling without luck.
So that's why I don't believe in strategy, because even if strategy is useful, it won't be free from luck. However, some people still believe in strategies and even one of my friends really believes in tricks, winning patterns or strategies, and strangely enough he still believes even though as long as he plays with tricks or patterns, I never see him win. Lol
Maybe this has brainwashed him because he can't think rationally anymore, but I'm sure he will slowly realize that it's wrong, and I still think it's a normal thing because he can be said to be a new gambler. In fact, it's not uncommon for me to see him watching videos on how to get big wins in gambling. Honestly, I laughed when I saw that, because how could we believe a "tutorial" video like that.
Indeed, I see that many of those who are new to gambling already believe in things like that, this happens because there are lots of promotional advertisements about winning strategies which eventually enter their minds. But one day I'm sure they'll realize it.
990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is really unexpected on: March 17, 2024, 09:10:01 AM
Carelessness usually leads to something undesirable, such as a big loss or something else. when careless actions are taken, big problems can occur, thought patterns that can become messy will cause many problems to occur. Wrong thinking if we chase victory in gambling, it can cause us to experience big losses such as losing a large amount of money. This is different from wise gamblers, they gamble naturally and always consider the action they will take because they know it will be decisive. later. In my opinion, gamblers can think well about the gambling they do, so that everything can go well.
It's true what you said, luck plays an important role in gambling, because in my opinion the wins we get in gambling are also because we have luck, many people force themselves to gamble to be able to win but they don't look at their luck, so they engage in excessive gambling.
Carelessness in gambling, or any element of life, is like going into a deal without research - a disaster. I know how to win deals. Your point about being thoughtful and strategic rather than thoughtless is spot-on.

Most gamblers fail to spot bad bets, not luck. I've seen folks chase losses, thinking the next one will be their great gain. Thats wishful thinking, not strategy, and losers do it.

Compassion for this cycle's victims? Absolutely. However, scorn for the narrow-minded. Your wise gamblers are like excellent business executives. They evaluate, take calculated risks, and may quit. Its the art of the bargain, in gambling and life. To those who think they can defy odds without thinking: Wake up! Its about smart, informed judgments, not chance. You win in gambling and life that way.
Well, all decisions are in the hands of the gamblers, whether they will be responsible gamblers or they prefer to gamble without restrictions, which then we will call them addicted gamblers. No one forces them to gamble and no one forbids them to gamble, all decisions are completely in their hands.
Actually it's easy, they just need to understand what they can do when gambling and what they can't do when they are gambling, if they are aware of things like this, then I am very sure they will avoid unhealthy gambling or from gambling that is not responsible.
Nothing can be predicted from gambling, with facts like that, gamblers should be able to form a pattern of thinking that when they lose they should not chase their losses and when they win they should not be greedy. If they still do those two things, then I won't be surprised when one day I hear they went bankrupt because of the gambling they did all this time. It's actually easy to control yourself, but the first thing is that we have to realize it first.
991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 17, 2024, 08:49:06 AM
There are elite teams pulling up to win the English Premier League title, none of them will want to relent, not when other oppositions have geared up their brilliant performance. You're underestimating Manchester City because they had a slight decline in performance this season? They're back and they're doing incredibly balance in matches. Manchester City will always come first when it comes to clubs that are favorite to lift the EPL crown title. Pep Guardiola won't hesitate to push his team forward because winning the EPL have been his for top priority this season.
Three elite teams, in orders, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City, are competing for a first position to win Premier League title. Their differences are slim, only in goal difference and 1-point difference. Every team among these three elite teams can win the league title and we will have a big match between Manchester City and Arsenal.

It will be chances and risk for both teams. If this match ends with a draw, it will be a great chance for Liverpool to take over the first position but if any team win in this match will get a big advantage for the title race. A loser will fall behind the opponent and maybe behind Liverpool after this week.
This is a very tight competition shown by the three teams at the top of the standings. Arsenal leads by only having a goal productivity advantage over Liverpool, while they are the same on points. Manchester City is in third place and they only have a difference of 1 point from both Liverpool and Arsenal. With a point distance like that, the position can really change in just one match.
Of course, all teams will not want to beat to give the title to their competitors just like that, they will try as hard as they can to ensure that they will be the champions this season. Nobody wants to fail this season, but the problem is when the competition becomes very tight and it is not easy for all teams.
There is still a meeting between Manchester City vs Arsenal, this will also be one of the matches that will be very decisive for them, winning will put them above the team that lost in this match. I think they will go all out in this match, because victory is something they must get.
992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 17, 2024, 08:29:45 AM
Juventus vs Genoa in the next 4 hours, will Juventus able to gain full points today? They have lost so many points during February till the last match, now they are 1 point behind AC Milan as the 2nd position in the standing and they are leading 4 points from Bologna. If they lose point again today, their position will be more dangerous because Bologna may overtake their position if they keep losing points in every remaining match. Anyway, odds for Juventus is 1.5 in this match but looking at their recent performance, it is a bit risky to bet on Juventus to win the match. What do you think?
Juventus is in a bad situation, they have only won 1 win from the last 5 matches they have played, clearly this is a bad result for them. Genoa, who will be their opponents this time, is also no better than Juventus, they also only won 1 of the last 5 matches they played. In my opinion, this is an opportunity for Juventus to be able to win again after it was very difficult for them to win in several matches.
In fact, the negative results they always receive mean that their position has to be shifted by AC Milan, which is now in second place. They have to get up and win again, because if they continue to get negative results then they will also be in danger of being knocked out of the top 4 positions. Things like that are clearly not good for them, so they have to prepare for this competition as well as possible. Because if you look at the quality they face, they should be able to win the match even with a narrow score, especially since they will be playing at their home base and that will make their motivation even greater.

Freiburg vs Leverkusen

Both teams has opposite results from their recent matches at Europa league because Freiburg was humiliated by West Ham with big scores 5-0 and Leverkusen dramatially win from mediocre team Qarabag but from this match i can see Leverkusen has champion mentality because they can fliped the situations after conceded 2 goals and about this match the winning result from Bayern Munich is pushing Leverkusen to gets maximum result from this match but not necessary to more analysis because obviously Leverkusen is much better tham Freiburg so that's why i believe Leverkusen can able to beat Freiburg today and the odds for Leverkusen win is @1.51

Yes, the two teams who will meet in the Bundesliga match will experience different fates in the European League this time. Surprisingly, Freiburg had to admit a very painful defeat to the English team West Ham, because after they were able to win in the first leg, in the second leg they actually lost with a very heavy score which ultimately resulted in them being eliminated from the European League. Meanwhile, Leverkusen were forced to work harder and were very fortunate that they were able to score 2 goals in second half added time which made them successful in getting a place in the quarter-finals.
In this match, Freiburg will act as hosts, which is an advantage for them. However, Leverkusen is in its best performance, apart from that, Leverkusen is also maintaining their record and they want to succeed in becoming champions in the Bundesliga this season. So they will go all out in this match to ensure they can get full points from their away match.

And the purpose of investing should be profit making, which is the reason people look for a good asset in the market to invest their money and have hope of earning from the investment when bull run come and it will be a good decision to carry out your research before conclude your choice.

Once you have the money on ground and you also have the skills in that particular business you are about to start and the location you want to establish the business is a busy area,  I guess you will never be poor again because you have all the skills the business required.
indeed the aim of investment is for profit, but this can happen if we make and carry out investments, also depending on the knowledge we have, if our investment knowledge is extensive and good, perhaps there will be no losses, because in my opinion losses in investments can be avoided by we have good knowledge, and conversely, if we don't have good knowledge then it is possible that the investment we make will not produce a profit, it will only result in a loss, therefore I think before making an investment we must be able to have good knowledge first .
and also with business, if we really want to start a business there are many things that we have to pay attention to, and what you said is true, skills are one of the things you must have when you want to start a business, because with good skills I think the business you run will run well so that it can generate profits or development. Not everyone can do business, because there are people who are lazy to move on to something better.

Actually, the purpose of life is to enjoy life, what's the point if you keep looking for money until you don't have time to enjoy life? I understand what he means, being rich is actually simple, all you need is enough, there are no shortages and not having bills or debt is already happiness in life.

Indeed, on the one hand, money can buy happiness. That's clear. With money we can provide for the people we love and that will give us happiness. However, happiness itself can actually be obtained without needing money, aka free, namely by being grateful and learning to enjoy what is there. But still, money helps increase happiness. However, if money is not used wisely, it can actually bring sadness and even disaster. Basically, we all have to avoid rash decisions in our finances, because wise decisions will make us rich.
In fact, I think it's very likely that we have bills that have to be paid every month, such as water, electricity, and maybe wifi. Indeed, life should be enjoyed, because of course if we continue to earn money there is a chance that the mind will become stressed, therefore when the holiday time comes we must be able to pamper ourselves because in my opinion it is a must also because it is a way to calm the mind. by going on holiday or by shopping with the money earned from our work, it doesn't matter.
It's true what you say that money can help increase our happiness, but even so, I don't think everything can be bought with money. I agree with you that if we can't manage our finances well then it will probably be a problem for us too, when the money runs out what will happen is confusion. Therefore, when we have money we must be able to manage it well, including expenses. so that there are no regrets at the end.

I don't feel that it is a mistake when someone prefers to save their salary rather than investing it. Because not everyone wants to invest their money, either because their knowledge is limited to it or for other reasons. So whether someone saves or invests doesn't matter, because both are equally good, but it's even better if both things are done together.
I agree with you, although investing can be profitable, it cannot be done by everyone, of course everyone has their own wishes, including managing their money.

The problem the OP is facing is that she only has one job, and in the last year she's had a lot of bills, so I assume she doesn't have any money to save let alone invest. There is only one way to overcome problems like this, namely by looking for additional income without disturbing your main job and learning to live frugally so you can pay off existing bills.

After everything is finished, then think about investing, because investment is not a get-rich-quick scheme, let alone crypto investment, of course for the long term. If you invest with less money and still have a lot of bills, I don't think it's a wise choice. The wise choice for the OP at this time is to continue to hone your skills so that your life becomes more productive, especially in the current technological era, it is very easy to find additional income, the important thing is to keep trying and not give up easily.
That's true, perhaps one way is to look for additional work or side work. but not everyone can do it, because to do this in my opinion it requires more energy and time which must also be taken into account, don't force ourselves to do it if it will torture ourselves. and with time, of course when we do extra work or side jobs we have to be able to manage our time, where we are also humans who have to have time to rest, too much work is not good for our health.
and if you are capable of everything going well, what you have to pay attention to is money management so that everything can be better, don't let having a side or additional job make us more wasteful in managing finances, when finances start to stabilize then we can think about save or invest if that is what you want, because not everyone wants to invest even though it has been recommended, and to make an investment of course we have to be able to pay attention to many things such as emergency funds and others.

Wise gamblers know how to manage expectations and understand the dynamics of the game. Indeed, greed can cloud judgment and lead to reckless behavior, ultimately undermining the chances of success. It's normal to expect winnings while enjoying the game, that is a balanced mindset that allows for enjoyment without succumbing to the pressure of chasing elusive wins. Gamblers have to realize that both wins and losses are part of the gambling experience. This enables gamblers to maintain perspective and learn from their experiences.

Exploring different casinos and being mindful of variations in house edge is a sensible strategy. The fundamental principles of gambling remain consistent across different establishments, but slight variations in rules and odds may impact outcomes. Adapting to these differences and staying true to effective strategies can enhance the chances of success. Luck plays a significant role, maintaining accuracy in strategies and staying disciplined can help mitigate the impact of fluctuations in luck.
Carelessness usually leads to something undesirable, such as a big loss or something else. when careless actions are taken, big problems can occur, thought patterns that can become messy will cause many problems to occur. Wrong thinking if we chase victory in gambling, it can cause us to experience big losses such as losing a large amount of money. This is different from wise gamblers, they gamble naturally and always consider the action they will take because they know it will be decisive. later. In my opinion, gamblers can think well about the gambling they do, so that everything can go well.
It's true what you said, luck plays an important role in gambling, because in my opinion the wins we get in gambling are also because we have luck, many people force themselves to gamble to be able to win but they don't look at their luck, so they engage in excessive gambling.

My personal experience is a bad experience when playing blackjack. that's because I always double my bet when I lose.

Indeed, at some point the doubling can restore the condition of my money. However, when I returned, I continued playing in that way and ended up losing in a row which resulted in my money running out before coming back again.
It was a bad experience that I will always remember and use as a valuable lesson. that not always doubling the bet can restore the situation.
Doubling your bet after a loss is the famous, or should I say infamous, martingale strategy, the martingale strategy is often sold by scammers as a strategy that can allow a person to become profitable when they gamble, since it is true that with it you can win up to 99% of the time, but what those scammers do not tell you is that once you hit that 1%, not only you will lose your bet, but it is almost guaranteed that you will lose all the money you had at that casino.
I am a person who does not believe in strategy in gambling, because I think it is luck. I have heard a lot about this strategy used and to be honest, I have also used it, but in reality, I always lose, that's why I don't believe in strategies and things like that. Because logically a strategy can bring victory, many people have been successful in gambling if they use a strategy. But I don't see that now. I also wouldn't blame them for believing in the strategy, that's completely their right. It's just that for me, when something depends on luck, then all strategies don't work well.
This strategy requires us to double the bet every round, it allows us to spend money in a short time. And when we do that it doesn't increase our chances of winning. So consider everything, are we able to lose money in a short time because we hope for a strategy, or will we play normally as usual, because if luck comes to us then we won't miss out on winning, even without the strategy we use.

This all comes back to each individual. Where there are some people who bet for the reason of adding sensation and pleasure when watching the matches they are taking part in, especially matches of their favorite club. in other words, they enjoy the match more than the bets they place. But there are also those who bet just to make a profit, so they always consider every opportunity in the bets they place, even if they have to bet against their papvotrit team. Because when the prediction results show that the opposing team is stronger than our favorite team. So it would be stupid if we bet on a weaker team. And people who bet like this, they tend to like the bet more than the game. But as a fan, of course this is unethical behavior, and can violate the code of ethics as a fan. Where as fans we should be able to respect the integrity of pair play. As fans of a certain team, we must have confidence that our favorite team will always try to give their best so as not to disappoint their fans.
If we already love a team then we don't care about the odds given by the bookie and even though realistically the chance of losing is much greater then it won't affect us, because in my opinion it is no longer the mind or brain that speaks, but the heart that speaks.
I have a story about this, this is the experience of a friend of mine who happens to be a supporter of one of the local teams in my country. He will do anything to support his favorite team, until one day his favorite team faces the team at the top of the standings. He asked me to help him find an opponent to bet on at that time, I was a little confused because logically his team would definitely lose, but he insisted on still looking for an opponent to bet on (he made individual bets, not from a gambling site).
From that experience, I believe that a fanatical fan doesn't care about the status of the opponent he or she will face, because usually they will always believe that their favorite team will win and that's why at the beginning I said they had used their heart.
