401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Buying More Tickets To Increase Your chances on: January 20, 2024, 03:51:17 PM
~snip~
These people already know that buying more tickets will have an additional cost for them. But it's not what they are focused on, instead hope to hit that jackpot prize. The pot prize for the lottery jackpot increases every other draw if no bettor hits it yet therefore, that's the only chance for these people to expect that high prize amount. That pushes them to buy more tickets in expecting that they will have more chances.

That mindset is deceiving them as even how many tickets they will have, hitting exactly 6 numbers out from a minimum 52 numbers needed an insane luck to achieved. If we applied Math here, even owning 100,000 tickets won't increase their chance of winning the jackpot.
These people already know that buying more tickets can change their financial position, but they don't mind it because of the possibility of having a chance to win a larger number of tickets. For that reason, people decide to buy more tickets than before because they hope to win their lottery tickets. The huge jackpot prize can really change their lives so drastically that they keep buying lottery tickets. But some people can be wise in buying their lottery tickets and think that they don't need to use a lot of money to buy their lottery tickets.

Even though they know that it will be very difficult to win the jackpot, they will still buy lottery tickets, especially if the lottery tickets are not expensive. Those who buy lottery tickets may already have a calculation about how much money they have to use to buy the lottery ticket. Well, it's up to them anyway because they used their money to buy their lottery tickets.

Parental guidance is needed on that part but it's not easy for the parents to detect that something strange is now happening to their child since the child is doing things not to make them look like something unusual is happening. I hope that if ever a kid is experiencing a gambling problem at that early age, they should find the courage to tell everything on their parents whatever it takes.

Expect their parents to get mad but it's way better to happen before anything else will turn worse in the future if the addiction by the kid won't end.

This situation happened in reality in some parts of the world.
If parents are close to their children, they will be able to realize that there are changes in their children, even if the changes are very small. There is an inner voice in parents saying that something is wrong with their children, so wise parents will ask their children if everything is okay and invite them to discuss it if they really have a problem. And their children will definitely tell their parents whatever their problems are because they really trust their parents, especially since their parents are people who are very close to their children.

And if their children become addicted to gambling, their parents will definitely try to cure their children at any cost because their parents really love their children. Parents will not want to lose their children, even if they have to sacrifice their possessions for the sake of their children. That is why there are parents who are willing to do anything to see their child's happiness, and that child is lucky to have parents who really care about him and should be grateful for him.

You are right, whenever we are in a casino we can see that there are many Cases where people have different ways of seeing life , I for example am very Emphatic, I like to see things from the most basic sense, if you have money because you work you shouldn't waste it, because it is very hard to spend hard-earned money, and it is truly irresponsible to Spend it on gambling in a casino , why will they be left when you are hungry? Who will give him to maintain him Knowing that he spent the money at stake? That's something that doesn't make any sense to me, it makes sense to me that a person should go to a casino where they have money ready to lose before playing and it shouldn't be much, because that person must be aware that if they spend a lot Where are you going to get more money from to fulfill your expectations, and money is necessary for everything, if we waste it we can't do anything but regret it and that's the only thing,

Those who enter a casino and have everything in a specific order , things can be very different, because they know that when they reach the amount they were Destined to lose , they do not put in more money, and that is what is done , basically things when they are treated You have to attack this quickly and follow your Own rules , because once it breaks, the money racket will be huge and that is what should be avoided. Personally , I do not Recommend anyone go to a casino and there make things different, a person who does not have control over his money will not have control in the casino, because everything will be mixed with the desire to no longer control the desire for money and will risk everything possibly losing, and I have seen how some people do not Even have time to pay for a taxi and go home from the casino , this is very dangerous and irresponsible. In this other Order of ideas, people who are like this are Guilty of their actions, because the casino never forces them to no one to bet.
If we talk about wanting to spend our hard-earned money, it will not be difficult because we can use it for various things. But is that what he wants and just wants to spend it gambling at the casino even though he has many daily needs that must be met. That would only make him lose all his income, and he would not be able to have money to meet his daily needs. If someone wants to go to a casino, he must prepare some money to gamble, and there is no need to bring a lot of money to the casino because that can make him forget to stop himself when he has been gambling for too long. He doesn't need to spend a lot of money gambling because gambling is just part of his entertainment, while he can still look for and find other entertainment that doesn't use too much money. They must remember that gambling can cost them money, so they must be able to prevent it from happening.

We don't need to advise people to go to casinos to gamble because we don't know whether people who take that advice can be responsible with themselves and disciplined in how they use their money or whether they will spend more money. If they end up spending a lot of money and can't accept their losses, they might complain to us and blame us for advising them to gamble. Besides that, by going to a casino, someone should be aware that they have the possibility of losing at the gambling game they play, so they must be prepared to face it. But most of them will not be ready to accept defeat, so they will continue to blame us. That is why we shouldn't give any advice to people, especially people we have just met. And it is true that when a person enters a casino, everything will change, and he can completely lose his self-control in gambling and will lose a lot of money.
404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 20, 2024, 02:43:42 PM
~snip~
Experts who sell their predictions, are not genuine most of the time. They are more concerned in selling those predictions as a means of making money through gambling, as wagering money offers lesser money in return. Most experts prioritize in making money in different means using gambling as the niche or the main center of attraction. Writing books, blog, tv shows, etc. include many other ways an expert can earn money from his skills and expertism. Sadly, the self-acclaimed experts we encounter these days don't care about making improvements. They bother only on sales. Gamblers that pay for predictions, complain, still, for losing out both ways. More expenses. Paid for the prediction, lost the game. The genuine experts who understand that no accurate strategy for winning in gambling, wouldn't guarantee anyone that they'll win using his predictions or strategy. A lot of experts boldly write in their book that their prediction shouldn't be taken as 100% accurate. Every gambler is expected to devise his own prediction and gamble. That's true fun. Winning out of someone else's prediction, only gives back the glory to the expert. Not the gambler.
Those who sell their predictions to people often get predictions from other prediction groups and then spread them among their own groups and say that it is the result of their analysis. People who use that prediction will not know at all if it is not the result of their analysis. Those people will be very happy to get these predictions and will immediately place their bets. That is why we have to learn to analyze ourselves and try to find sources of information that we can trust. We need to look for more information about the match that will take place for each team. This can help us to analyze each team so that we can continue to learn good and correct ways of analyzing. We also won't depend on people who share their predictions with people because we can already predict and know which team we can choose as a bet. But when someone shares a prediction with the public, we can use it after we do further analysis to find out how he got the prediction results. It is also part of improving our way of analyzing a match.

that's true, but another thing that happens to those who are addicted to gambling in the sense that they are already crazy about gambling, they won't pay attention to it, all they think about is gambling, and even if they have lost a lot of money they won't look at it. , but if they realize that they will lose a large amount of their money, maybe they are aware of this, but it can still be defeated by their belief in winning at gambling. and in my opinion, they're not just sorry, they're annoyed by the loss that occurred, so that could trigger them to gamble again.

Yes, that makes sense, because casinos will of course continue to do their best and with one of them offering clear promotions or bonuses, it can make many gamblers interested in gambling at the casino. and that can trigger them to gamble continuously, sometimes they can feel like they are almost winning and the same thing can trigger them to become addicted to gambling. Those who are addicted to gambling seem to find it difficult to stop if they don't have their own awareness.
Those who are crazy about gambling will not be able to see other things that are more interesting because their focus is already on gambling, and there are no other things that can make them want to try it. All they have in mind is playing gambling continuously so that they might end up using even more money. When only gambling is on their mind, they will try to provide money to gamble, and they can get it in various ways. Gamblers who are addicted to gambling are no longer aware of losing large amounts of money because, in their minds, they only want to gamble. It's not normal, and the people around them should realize it and start making them aware of it before they get deeper into gambling.

Yes, casinos will always provide the best offers for gamblers because that is how the gambling business works. Only gamblers who do not have responsibility, discipline, and self-control will fall deeper into gambling. Meanwhile, those who can use gambling properly will not fall into gambling and can even use gambling as entertainment. They will always try to avoid problems such as losing too much money or becoming addicted to gambling because they have seen what it does to people.

~snip~
Depends on the capability of the gambler but me i don't recommend this kind of strategy in playing slot games even though it's just pulling the lever or making an automated spin still its good if you enjoy a single game with the outcome, in two games or more played the same time there's no assurance with your money to win the game so why not enjoy the current game and if you not well played in the first one get into another, but if this game is related in sports and e-sports gambling that's the time make a multiple bet ideally, because its all about analyzing the winner of the game, first 10 scores higher chance, winners of the game and etc. I do multiple betting with the different games in this genre.
Indeed, no guarantee playing slots will result in winning, especially if they use more money. They could have the opportunity to experience more defeats if they cannot take care of themselves well. If they still try to play slots even by purchasing the Bonus feature, it will also not always guarantee they can get big wins. But that's what makes many gamblers play slots more often because of the temptation to get big multipliers, especially if those people often see videos of people who managed to get big multipliers. And if they play sports betting, they can choose many or few sports bets, but they must have analytical skills to determine their bets. It may take longer, especially if they don't have better analytical skills.
407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any fun in losing while gambling on: January 20, 2024, 01:46:02 PM
~snip~
This is why it makes no sense to complain about your losses when gambling, as if a person is really a responsible gambler and they are only using money they can spare to lose, then they should know that even if they did not gamble they would have used that amount of money to get entertainment any other way, and this means they will not have that money on their pockets even if they did not gamble, so they are not really losing any money at all when you think about it.
If someone gambles responsibly, they will not complain if they lose when gambling because they already know it is the result of using their money to gamble. If they don't want to lose their money, they don't need to gamble and keep their money. It will be better for them because by saving and using their money for other things, they will not feel sad or frustrated from gambling. They can also get pleasure from other things that don't use too much money so they won't lose their money.

~snip~
Gamblers should stop acting like losing is not the most occurring outcome of gambling. When a player already knows about losing in gambling. Why then would he get sad if it happens. It's more like being aware of an incident which is about to happen, and when it does occur the person begin to act as if he wasn't informed earlier about it. Same applies to the pleasure gained via gambling, but some wave it away and don't bother to remember the fun but decides to feel sad or angry if they don't win. One must not always win in gambling, losing comes more than winning. The earlier gamblers begin to get used to losing the better for them. They'll enjoy the game better than those who look forward to winning without losing. Getting over those losses will help the gambler to focus on his next valuable prediction other than chasing losses.

We spend money every day of our life, and gambling should be part of our budgets. Pondering in sadness over lost money in gambling is more like being sad for hanging out with friends and family ordering drinks and food in a restaurant, and the bill handed over to us. Provided we have the money and it's not too much of a bill, then clearing it wouldn't make us feel sad. Same applies to gambling. Once the gambler is spending minimal money his facial reaction wouldn't make any difference even though he losses the money. That's why we, gamblers, are advised to gamble money that we wouldn't feel sad losing. Like the instance I gave above, regarding visiting a restaurant. If you spend big amount of money in gambling and lose, there is no way anger wouldn't flourish in your mind.
When gambling, a gambler may experience losses more often than wins, so he must be prepared for the losses that will come to him. He also doesn't need to be sad for too long because by knowing that loss is coming, he can manage the use of his money so that he doesn't lose a lot of money. This needs to be arranged before he starts gambling because if not, he will only experience more losses, and that will make him feel sad about his losses. And when he feels sad, he will probably remember it for a few days and find it difficult to accept his loss. Gamblers should learn to accept their losses and avoid using much of their money. Someone who really wants to win will try to gamble more often, and even though he experiences loss, he will still gamble to chase a win. Gamblers must be able to learn from what they have obtained to become wise gamblers in gambling.

That is why, before gambling, a person must be able to allocate an amount of money that can be used for gambling and not deposit an amount of money that is more than he can afford. As long as we can allocate a certain amount of money for gambling and have clear boundaries and good self-control, we will not become excessive gamblers in gambling. We will always be careful in using our money because we really want to avoid excessive gambling. We also cannot spend so much money to gamble because we will always remember that we have many daily needs that we must fulfill. By always setting limits when playing gambling, we can try to enjoy gambling and can use gambling properly and also not gamble excessively.

If there's someone who cares for them who can make them realize how much time and money that they already consuming from their gambling might help them to cope up and try to restart thier mindsets, I guess this follows the rules which self-will can be back up by those people who really aiming to help and trying to make sure that you are going to be fine when you try to resolve this kind of a situation while playing.

Being too deep into gambling can result to a much bigger problem, you need to re-assess everything once you have this kind of situation, it can develop awareness and good decision making when tough time already beside you, you just need someone to boost your will to process the right way.
Someone who cares about them will try to give advice to the gambling addict and make him realize that what he is doing is wrong. Whatever the method, someone will try their best to make the addict realize that he is addicted to gambling and needs help immediately. If not, the gambling addict will get deeper into gambling and his gambling addiction will also get deeper. This will be more difficult to cure because the gambling addict will not want to get help from other people. Therefore, before it is too late, there must be someone who wants to help the gambling addict.

So having awareness while gambling is necessary to keep us from gambling excessively and we also won't experience serious problems. And don't get too deep into gambling if you don't want to experience gambling addiction problems because gambling too often can cause you to experience gambling addiction. This is what every gambler must avoid so that they can realize that they really have to limit their gambling.

~snip~
advice you say? Well sorry to tell you this, but I think advice really doesn't work for gamblers that can't really control their gambling habits, but although this particular feeling of the gambler wanting to continue his playing after hitting a figure that isn't satisfactory is like a common disease among other gamblers and it the person himself that can discipline himself to actually stop this act.
There's nothing wrong with continuing to give suggestions to make him aware because, after all, if we care about him, we have to use various methods that might make him aware. We don't know which method will bring him to his senses. That's why we can use many methods, and later, there will be a time when the addict or gambler will think about what has happened to him. Yes, this is indeed a common disease faced by gamblers, and the people around them can also start to see and pay attention and advise them to reduce their gambling activities.
409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the tension make you take risk that are sometimes worth it? on: January 20, 2024, 12:54:24 PM
~snip~
We as good gamblers must always know something, as long as we have the money ready to lose is something else, every time we have the power to plan before going to a casino, we cannot fall into addictions, for example, such as that planning? Simple, before going to the casino, from home after showering and getting ready to go out, should we do something simple, or will it take not even 5 minutes to do it, first determine how much money we can lose?

If we have 500usd in our wallet, we are not going to spend 500usd on it, not even anyone, we have to allocate less, for example 100usd, those 100usd must be put there ready to be allocated to the game and not to mention, we cannot spend more than that , because if we spend more than that we will become deskilled, if those 400usd that we have are allocated for example to do the weekly market, then we cannot spare that money to spend it, because in the case that we have to spend that, how do we do it? to be able to survive the week? How will it be done to be able to have the money to spend?

Those are the things that we have to see, it is not good to be irresponsible, because the irresponsibility that can occur is unique, we cannot say that we fell into addiction because we did not know what we were doing, that is like saying that a woman X was pregnant by Ccident, and no, things happened because I wanted it, and that is something that we do not op It is because of our fault, it is not because of others nor because we are innocent, so assuming that the addict becomes addicted through his own fault and because of his lack of responsibility and management of emotions, we have to assume our mistakes, and when the addiction is imminent and the person does not react or does not want to react, since that is when help is sought.
Before starting to gamble, we really have to have a good plan to enjoy the gambling game. We only need to bring a little money if we want to go to the casino and only enough money, according to the estimate, for how long we want to gamble. If we are ready for everything that can happen from gambling, we can immediately gamble and still use limits when gambling so that we don't lose too much.

If we have $500 and use it to gamble, it's the same as wasting our money because with that much money, we can use it for many things. We must be able to allocate a certain amount of funds for gambling and don't need to use a lot of money as you said. When playing gambling, we have to be able to set aside a certain amount of money and don't use the money we will use for other things. We also don't need to gamble every day, especially using a lot of money, and if we can arrange a schedule for gambling and limit the money, we will enjoy gambling as entertainment. However, we should only gamble sometimes.

We must be responsible for ourselves because that is the money we set aside for gambling purposes, including maintaining our emotions when gambling. We also have to be able to prevent gambling addiction, which can come to us at any time, so that we don't get into serious problems. That is why we have to learn many things so that we can protect ourselves well from the temptations that exist in gambling and enjoy gambling as entertainment. There is nothing else we can do except protect ourselves from the temptation of gambling because many people are tempted and end up falling deeper into gambling.
410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: why do people always play gambling even if they always lose? on: January 19, 2024, 09:49:34 PM
Gambling always gives people the hope of winning something good, which is why even after repeated losses, gamblers cannot quit gambling.  We involve ourselves with various promotions of gambling sites in such a way that even after we lose, we feel that we will win the next time we gamble and we will recover all the previous losses. With this aim we continue to gamble even if we lose repeatedly. The only way to avoid this is to keep yourself under control and educate yourself about the harmful aspects of gambling
When I gamble, I keep winning as long as I control myself. When I gamble excessively, I bet more money in hopes of winning. Whenever I bet more, I lose. From gambling.  I don't know if it's an addiction or not after trying so hard to get myself to quit. Sometimes I think I'll quit gambling but after a few days I start gambling again so I've thought about quitting gambling several times.  But could not give.
It's good if you can control yourself when you win. But be careful if you risk a lot of money in the hope of winning because that doesn't guarantee you can always win from gambling. You can only place bets according to what you can afford and no more so that you won't suffer many losses. Playing gambling doesn't require losing a lot of money but just enough. Unfortunately, those who lose in gambling think about increasing the amount of money they will use to bet and think that they are getting closer to winning. Those who lose will return to gambling continuously because they want to recover their losses and also win from gambling. You must be able to limit your gambling activities because if not, you will only lose more money, and it will be difficult for you to recover those losses. So you should be careful when gambling because many temptations will make you return to gambling with more money.
411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making too many picks reduces chances of winning. on: January 19, 2024, 09:39:52 PM
As gamblers, we love more action, so we tend to make more bets on a regular basis. However, experts say that when we make too many picks regularly, our chances of winning decrease. This is due to the fact that we won't be able to analyze all the games carefully that are in our ticket and won't have the advantage needed to win. So instead, it's recommended that we should value quality over quantity if we want to succeed in sports betting.

Share your opinion regarding this matter.



Edit : I see that some replies are talking about parlay. FYI, this is not about parlay, it's about making many single picks on a regular basis. Please avoid using parlay when sharing your opinion.
I agree with you on this, too many picks will make one lose its bet as there are high probability that all the picks won't clear out as expected. Betting on two or three games is better as you will have enough time to do proper and adequate analysis on those teams and Stand a chance of making an accurate reduction of those games.
If a person always places bets on multiple bets, he may not lose his money but will instead earn a lot of winnings from each bet. But it will depend on his ability to analyze each match because getting the right team will take longer. Apart from that, there is money that they will use to place bets on each match. This will create confusion for them, especially if they do not have good analytical skills. If you are new to sports betting, it is best to place bets on sports you know and not place big money bets. Adjust the amount of money and only use the money you can afford so that you don't lose a lot of money if you lose. Analyzing many matches requires more experience so that you can place many bets in one day. Especially in casinos, there are many sports bets to bet on, which can tempt you to place bets.

It all happened on my way home just this evening. I boarded a public bus and just in front of me were seated two young men too in their late thirty's having a conversation and from the conversation it sound like they haven't met for a long time and one was telling the other of how he had won a big amount of money from a lotto he played and he has used the money to get himself a new bus for public transportation business.
That is a wise  Idea. Not all winners can do such a thing. Most will have the mindset of buying a bus for commercial transportation, but will end up spending the amount they won due to consistent gambling, and expecting to win bigger to buy 10 buses instead of 1. And they end up spending all.

My advice to gamblers is to always make judicious use of the amount they have to Start something, rather than procrastination, because of that has made many youth loos there fund to what was not ment to.
Yes, he who wins can think about what he wants to do with his winnings, and it would be better if the winners from gambling can also think about this so that they don't waste their winnings. They can do many things with their winnings, including preparing for the future of their family or themselves, and because it is a lot of money, they can do several things that can help their finances. Some people open new businesses from the winnings, but some also use it to go on endless sprees or buy lots of things they don't need. This must be avoided if one day we can win a lot of money from gambling so that we only focus on preparing for our future. Yes, we have to be wise in using the winning money because getting a big winning money is like getting a moment that can change our lives for the better.

Is there really such a thing as being fit or unfit to gamble? If you see an elderly woman, whether it's your mother or your grandmother, gambling, there must be a reason for it. Perhaps they find it as the only way to spend their time and enjoy themselves. Some elderly women may also be seeking excitement because they can no longer experience it as frequently.

It's best to have a conversation with the elderly woman and inquire about her experience with gambling. Engage in a meaningful dialogue and provide support so that she can enjoy herself, despite her old age. However, it's still important to set limits on her gambling activities and not allow her to gamble excessively. At their age, they are capable of making their own decisions, hence it's crucial to guide and support them, but not to control their choices.
It is best to talk to the elderly woman and ask about her gambling experiences. Engage in meaningful dialogue and provide support so he can enjoy his life despite his age. However, it is still important to limit his gambling activities and not allow him to gamble excessively. At their age, they can already make their own decisions. Therefore, guiding and supporting them is very important, but not controlling their choices.

That is why there are people who invite women to discuss or chat about the reasons for gambling. And if the grandmother wants to have fun, these people can advise her to do something that doesn't require a lot of money, and the grandmother can also get pleasure. People around the grandmother can continue to accompany the grandmother or those people can contact the grandmother's closest relatives to take her home.

        -   If you really see that your capital money is growing in gambling because you know and are sure that there will be income from it, you will not stop it. It is true what you said: there is no reason for you to stop if it is producing profit for you.

Then, most of all, you are happy with what you are doing because it helps you. But of course, if you are always losing, you should stop if necessary as a gambler.
Someone who sees an opportunity to win will try to continue gambling. They no longer think about losing but instead think about how they can win. This requires awareness to see what they have done from gambling and how much money they have used so that they can decide to reduce their gambling activities or continue gambling but with stricter restrictions. But if there is someone who can get close to them and tell them that they are too deep in gambling, the gambler may be able to realize that they are too deep in gambling and need to reduce their gambling activities so that they will not lose any more money. People around them can see that they are gambling excessively, so they are the ones who should provide advice to reduce their gambling activities.

When talking about opportunities, of course, it can still make us continue to play gambling without thinking about the defeat we have obtained. but if the challenge of luck wants to play gambling even a week if you are lucky, you will definitely get a win immediately.
So it is true that these two factors should not be separated when we play gambling so that we can manage the brain so that it is not too addicted to excessive gambling.
Someone who plays gambling will think about the opportunities he can get so that in his thinking, he will continue to try to win the gambling game without being able to see that he has lost more money. He will not want to admit to losing his money and still considers it normal and will continue gambling. That's where awareness is needed to understand that you don't need to play gambling every day, and don't need to use more money because there is a losing factor you can accept. And even though they can win, if they can't stop gambling, they will continue gambling because they think that they still have a chance of winning.

He cannot do the same thing because we all know that gambling is an emotional based game and will surely affect his school performances. One reason for him to stop gambling is the fact that he wasted the money his parents gave him as allowance and this might lead him to steal money when urge to gamble will occupy his young and weak mind.
If he is still a student, he will experience emotional changes, becoming unstable and angry more easily than thinking before acting. If he can stop gambling because he has wasted his parents' money, that is a good step, and he should really leave gambling for good. But if he couldn't do that, he would probably lie to everyone who asked him so he could keep the money he would use for gambling. A student will lose his future when he starts to know something that makes him lose money, such as gambling, which can make him lose focus on studying, reducing his performance at school. This requires attention from the adults around him, so they need to provide understanding to the child.

Of course because in gambling there are only two end results if you don't win it means you lose at that time, and all the choices are in your own hands, like you said if they really don't want to experience the problem of losing a certain amount of money then obviously there is no other choice but not to gamble, but unfortunately most gamblers now they are too focused on a chance of winning, simply want to win but don't want to lose and isn't that a loser? Obviously, however, you can't do anything in gambling to increase the winning percentage to be closer or bigger, because it all depends on how lucky you are in running the session, what you have to pay attention and think about is how to prevent you from losing a large amount if you really want to engage in gambling and that means you have to have very good self-control and be firm in limiting the gambling you do.

So the point is that your choice  will determine your fate in the future, in any case and not only applies to gambling, you need to really find out what gambling is really about  before you finally get involved, if you already know  and are ready for all  the possibilities that will occur then please all decisions are in your hands as long as you have good responsibility.
When we don't want to lose when gambling, it's best not to gamble so we can save the money well. We will not feel like we are losing money because of gambling, and we can do other things that can also give us pleasure. But when we are provoked into trying to gamble, we can forget to control ourselves until we lose a lot of money. When we have experienced the loss of a lot of money, we will no longer feel pleasure but have replaced it with the desire to recover from the loss. But unfortunately, by trying to recover from these losses, we will only experience more losses, which is really not worth doing. We must really be able to limit our gambling activities before we experience bad things that can cause our finances to collapse and run out of all the money we have.

And it is true that before we start gambling, we should think about what the consequences would be if we lose the money we have collected so that we can make the right decision. We don't need to gamble like other people because we don't want to lose much money. The decision is in our hands, and we should really think about it before deciding so that we can make the right decision.

Likewise, when we are in the middle of playing we must control ourselves in what we do, it is not the same to play the same thing all the time, because Basically when we are in a casino and we do anything to win, it may be good for us and we won't do anything else. nothing, but the thing is when we play and suddenly we are Doing very well and others begin to tell us what to do, or they begin with the uncertainty of do this or do that, sometimes that tension makes us suffer, yes, we are all clear that we Casinos were invented to make us happy, have a different time, have fun, give pleasure, but it is an entertainment that I call adult for adults, because it focuses on money and we must be very jealous with money, because sometimes It is difficult to obtain it, for me it is difficult because I have to do things well, I cannot make a mistake or things will not turn out at all as they have foreseen, in this case if we start to see, everyone has their own way,  of thinking, and we must respect it, but in casinos we must be intelligent and try to see things with a cool head and not Crazy.

In a casino those who cannot hold their Emotions obviously lose , they lose a lot of money, and that is the only thing that should be avoided, for those who cannot necessarily have to put aside what they can win in the casino and to another side, or It is better not to wear what should not be worn , because temptations are Unique and it is not Possible that because of one Temptation we persevere everything, or because of that belief that yes I will do it , that everything will be good for me, that he who does not risk does not gain, Well, all that series of things that we tell ourselves when it comes to playing, we must be disciplined so that no type of emcoin affects us, if we have that Belief then we can achieve Anything, not only in the casino but in any other area of life.
Having good self-control is very necessary when playing gambling because there are so many temptations that we will face, and we can lose that self-control at any time. That is why we must continuously practice self-control so that we can survive the temptations that exist in gambling so that we will not experience serious problems. Someone who starts gambling frequently should be able to realize this so that they can continue training in self-control so that they don't make mistakes or experience a loss of self-control. If that happens, they will not be able to see the consequences they will experience, and they can easily experience frustration and stress because they have experienced so many losses. Many gamblers have experienced frustration and stress because they have experienced a lot of losses. But some of them don't stop and keep trying, so they will continue to experience losses, maybe even more than they have ever experienced.

Losing self-control will cause emotions and even their emotions can increase drastically and will make them even more frustrated. Meanwhile, those who often gamble will increasingly see the temptations that exist in casinos so that if they cannot learn good self-control, they will only be tempted and will eventually get deeper into gambling. Continuing to practice self-control can help us avoid mistakes that will occur so that we can also minimize the risks that will occur. When we can avoid one temptation, another temptation will appear. If we do not continue to practice self-control, we will not be able to resist that temptation, resulting in us experiencing bad things that we never imagined before.

So, that is the purpose and benefit of interacting with other gamblers and related to chat rooms, it seems that there are quite few because when gamblers win or lose, on average they will enter the chat room and share the results they have obtained.
We can share experiences with each other and also joke about the results of other gamblers losses.
Maybe this is considered not very useful for other gamblers, but I think this is fun form of entertainment.
The gamblers who have lost will remain in the chat room while waiting for the winnings to be distributed by the winning gamblers. The distribution of winnings may not be big, but they are still willing to wait because it is something for those who wait. They think getting a share of the winnings is a pleasant thing, so they will stay in the chat room, perhaps even all day, to wait for it.

If you are taking break because you have experienced big loss and want to calm down, it is best to immediately leave the gambling site, but if it is only small loss that has no effect on your gambling budget then staying is still the choice for most gamblers.
The most important thing is that we can accept this loss and of course we can still think clearly or in control when we have lost.
Sometimes mistakes occur because of our own actions that get out of control after experiencing an unacceptable amount of defeat.
However, a person needs to take a break from gambling, especially after a losing streak because it will affect his emotions. He should calm his emotions first before making a decision, and it would be best if he could think about quitting gambling for a while. And we should be able to think clearly when we experience defeat to think of a way out. Mistakes that occur because of our out-of-control actions after experiencing defeat must be immediately changed so that they don't happen again, and we need to learn self-control to prevent it from happening again. But there must be an acknowledgement from him that he has made a mistake and does not want to repeat it.

As long as it's not affecting your daily budget sparing some amount of money is fine, though for sure there are some other people who are really keen in winning as they add more tickets and already out from the intend budget, all for the hope that one day they will be able to win and they will able to change their financial position.

We all know how huge the amount of winning prize and those who got lucky enjoyed the luxuries of being financially capable, for those who are wise, they can continue being rich but for those who overspend that can quickly comeback to where they belong.
But if they knew that buying many tickets could make them lose more money, they would want to avoid taking that risk and only buy enough lottery tickets. But it's all clouded with hope and desire to buy lots of lottery tickets, so they don't want to listen to advice from other people who tell them not to do it. Indeed, if they earn a lot of money, they can enjoy all those luxuries, but they should be able to think about whether it is worth continuing, considering that they will use more money than they can afford.

Some people actually use more money than other people to buy their lottery tickets because they think buying more tickets will give them a chance to win. But that still won't guarantee they can win, especially since they will compete with other people who bought lots of lottery tickets so that the competition will be even tighter. Getting the jackpot prize has become the goal of those who buy lots of lottery tickets, so they will always use more money to have lots of tickets.
