most gamblers definitely have the ambition of winning big at some point in their gambling life. thus, they tend to continue this habit and look for this possibility. unfortunately, a lot can easily be burned because of this belief. i guess, that's the usual dilemma of gamblers, aiming for a big win but sadly, the opposite of this happens.
You are right, but the problem is that not many gamblers can achieve their ambitions, and this causes more gamblers to experience large losses. But even so, they don't stop gambling and instead gamble more and more often because they still want to try it. Besides that, they have made it a habit that they do almost every day so that if they don't do it that day, it's like they missed something. Well, it is a gambling addiction for them because they keep gambling and have the ambition to win even though they already know that it is difficult for them to win. But they don't want anyone to say they are addicted to gambling, and they will deny it and say everything is still fine.

It seems to me that big business owners, which I include casinos, can get dopamine even without gambling. When you see your bank account balance increasing on your monitor screen every day, you hardly need this kind of entertainment. You are constantly in an elevated and euphoric mood. I think such people have more pleasant options for spending their leisure time. Such people know the value of money and use its value as much as possible.
Those who see additional money entering their bank account will make it fun entertainment because they see more money entering their account. Yes, they don't need any other entertainment, and they may not even be interested in gambling. That could be what rich people experience who only look at the monitor screen to check how much money has entered their account. But there are also business owners who need other entertainment by gambling at their casinos or at other casinos, as well as meeting their customers or guests so they can interact directly. This will create an emotional connection between the casino owner and his customers, and this can make the customers feel cared for by the casino owner.

~snip~
A fundamental question. What are they doing that for?Cheesy
I think they know that the conditions that occur in the sites and gambling that they develop have a much greater loss ratio and apart from fun I think there is no reason for the owner to do that because in the end he must also realize that apart from wasting time, this is also not profitable for him so in this case when a gambling boss is gambling on their own site it just indicates that he is bored so he is doing something that is not useful for him.

They are businessmen and I don't think they have more free time just to gamble at their place unless there are some urgent matters such as wanting to try out the site they are developing or indeed just to fill boredom.
They may visit other casinos to meet with their owners and arrange cooperation agreements in other business areas. A casino owner can do a lot by visiting other casinos, especially when he sees something that can provide him with another source of income. A businessman can see opportunities to get a source of income than most people because their intuition is usually sharper, and they can understand things better. It's not a waste of time for a business owner, especially when he sees an opportunity to make something. He will make observations to gather more information to develop his ideas.

Business people have free time because they have been trained to use their time well. Even though they are in their free time, they can even come up with interesting ideas that can give them the opportunity to open up opportunities to get a source of income. And even just by chatting with their friends, they can get business ideas that will become a new business if implemented. Their way of thinking is different from ours.

Yes, that habit is what causes people to find it difficult to get rid of their gambling addiction, namely their cellphones where they usually gamble using their cellphones so that people find it difficult to leave their cellphones and in the end go back to gambling again, that's why it's important to avoid gambling addiction because it is very difficult to cure it. if not for my own encouragement to stop gambling.

My friend once broke his cellphone in order to avoid his gambling habit so he busied himself more with his work and started learning to love himself by doing other, more positive hobbies, that's why cellphones are more dangerous than gambling addiction itself, because people who are addicted to gambling are currently in casinos online, most of them are smartphone users and it is difficult to stay away from smartphones which are usually used for gambling.
If he often uses his smartphone to gamble, it means he is also addicted to his smartphone. He must really reduce using his smartphone so that he can also reduce his gambling activities. Using a smartphone has become necessary in this era, especially since many people use it for work and other activities. It seems difficult to separate someone from their smartphone unless they really want to reduce their smartphone addiction.

But if he does more physical activity, he can use his smartphone less because it can interfere with the focus of his activities. Slowly, he will abandon his dependence on his smartphone and gambling because not using his smartphone too often also makes him not visit the casino where he gambles. Indirectly, it also reduces gambling activities.

Casinos continuously develop and add many types of games, especially slot games, especially at Stake. You can look in the New Release section. Lots of new slot games will be added. Other casinos will do the same because adding the newest games can make gamblers curious and want to play them. My experience of gambling recently is still the same as before. I still experience losses and wins, but it is not a big loss or big loss.

I don't understand card games like blackjack. Even if I play them, I only play them randomly. And after one game, I will move on to slot games or original games from Stake. But I would also look into the sports betting section to see the list of matches. If there is a match that I know about, I may try to place a bet on it, but not with big money.

That is a great tip for all gamblers. By knowing when we gamble and when we stop, we have good self-control. We can learn from the situations and not try to chase loss because that will cause us to lose everything. But achieving what you have is not easy @OP, and it requires continuous training so that we can have patience in gambling.

But what @OP said about stopping immediately after one or two defeats is true. This can make us start chasing losses, and in the end, we will only follow our ego and lust to continue gambling. And we also have to remember that we don't need to increase the betting money because if we lose, it will only increase the amount of the loss. So keep using the same betting money, especially small bets or money you can afford, and stop before it's too late.

Many gamblers feel optimistic when playing gambling and think they can win some money when in reality, they have difficulty winning from gambling games. These people have lost a lot of money in gambling but have not stopped themselves or even reduced their gambling activities because they feel they can win. And many of them are addicted to gambling but don't want to stop gambling before they win. Unfortunately, many of them don't understand how to manage the risks of gambling because they still gamble often and even use more money. For wise gamblers, they continue to try to manage and reduce the loss of their money in gambling, but not for gambling addicts.

Well, maybe they are still unfamiliar with risk management but if they don't learn it soon, they could lose even more money. They must immediately cure their gambling addiction because it can get worse and will cost them all their money. But it depends on the wishes of each gambler because if they still want to gamble more intensively, they will not be able to stop gambling.

It is possible to win millions of dollars from slots with just $1 which is why it is more attractive to gamblers and slots games are played more than other games. And this is why gamblers are more addicted to slots games. And in slots games, users can lose the most and win the most.  I used slots machines for a while and got pretty addicted to them, but managed to quit with some self control. So I agree with you that slots games are the most addicting. And those who get deeply addicted to slots either win big or they lose everything very quickly
A gambler who wins millions of dollars from slot games must have great luck, but most gamblers still struggle to win a lot of money. Most of them will lose when playing slots because slot games require luck, and slot games attract many gamblers who come and hope to win big multipliers. And if they lose, they will still come back and play the slot game, and maybe they will spend more money and buy bonus features that they think will increase their winning percentage. But once again, they must have luck to get a big multiplier. And we admit that this slot game is so tempting that it can make us return more often. Many gamblers who become addicted to gambling return to gambling and playing slots because there is a hope of getting a big multiplier. Those who are not successful will try again another day until they finally become addicted to gambling.

Office work give you income and you should not compromise of the office work because of gambling. Sometimes you complete the office work and have time, then you can gamble. but if there is a pending office work and you start to gambling, and ignoring the office work, then it is not only unethical but also you are not faithful to your job and duty.
This is true. Those of us who already work in office jobs should not do anything that could violate office rules. We have been given a salary commensurate with our work, so we shouldn't waste it just because we want to gamble, which we can't resist. We should be able to separate the desire to gamble from work at the office so that we can only focus on work at the office. Apart from that, we can gamble again when we go home or after we get home from work, we can go to a cafe to gamble. Gambling at the office is not worth doing because we only risk losing our job. And if we were fired from our jobs just because of gambling, how would we explain it to our families? That will be a big problem for us and our family because we will have difficulty meeting our daily needs. After all, we have lost our jobs at the office, so we no longer get paid.

This society is placing the premise of technology and gadgets at the forefront, and when people can achieve everything with just a phone and computer, communication becomes bland, being attentive to most applications is our schedule every day and apps that take advertising dollars from gambling brands and serve them for virality and visibility. True entertainment activities have really shrunk too much, those who stand outside the boundaries of gambling should keep themselves, entering is just like those who have lost their way, no longer able to listen to the meaning outside
Yes, everything is changing rapidly, especially with technology developing faster so that people can use the Internet well too. That's what makes them pay attention to most applications where lots of gambling advertisements appear on the sidelines of the application. And the presence of more modern devices is increasingly developing well because they are supported by better technology. If people can reduce their dependence on devices, there may still be hope for reducing the level of gambling addiction because they can avoid using their devices.

But most people still can't do that because they think their devices help them with their daily activities. They cannot leave their devices even for a few minutes. We are more addicted to devices like smartphones than gambling because we can't get through the day without using a smartphone.

If such thing happen, the best is create an accusations thread, contact casino guru or something like that. As long as you're not broke any rule, you're fine and many people will be on your side since the casino didn't want to pay your winnings. There are two scenarios when this happen, either the casino pay the winnings or they choose to close their casino. If they close it, I guess we can't do anything. Take a look with 1xbit scam, the owner didn't go to jail.
Moreover, if the casino has an ANN on this forum, it will make it easier for us to get help from other friends to check the winnings. And if the casino is proven to be cheating or there are bugs in the casino but the casino doesn't want to pay the gamblers, people will support us so we can get the money. But it will be difficult for us to get the money back when it's a casino out there because we don't know where to go or who to contact to solve the problem. We should contact a lawyer who can and will help us resolve the case, but the costs will be expensive, and we will not be ready. The casino should be able to realize if there are bugs and be willing to return customers' money to maintain its reputation, but it depends on the casino.

If the percentage of gambling addiction is calculated as a whole, it can be very large and almost all of them experience addiction problems, this proves that gambling addiction is indeed a problem and is also case that is quite common everywhere.
It's just that the impact for each will vary depending on the gambling addict himself.
The bad impacts and good impacts of gambling still tend to be more dominant the bad impacts felt by each gambler, and to be able to get the good impact or positive side of gambling clearly requires some effort in responding to every gambling activity that is carried out.
Concerns about gambling addiction do exist regarding the negative impacts that can occur such as destruction and various problems that arise, but all of this will continue to coexist as long as there is no awareness and efforts made to deal with gambling addiction.

In gambling, winning and losing have different opportunities and what is clearly greater is the chance of losing, no gambler can avoid losing because losing is result that is guaranteed to occur more often.
Not only gambling addicts but also gamblers who just want to have fun can definitely win, but the amount of winnings can never be greater than the number of losses that have previously occurred.
These winnings are return given by the house edge to gamblers but unfortunately most gamblers don't make good use of them and instead use these winnings to gamble again until they end up running out with nothing left.
A huge percentage of gambling addiction is experienced by gamblers, whether they admit it or not. This has become a serious problem that must be resolved immediately by every gambler so that they do not get deeper into their gambling addiction and can immediately cure their gambling addiction. When they feel more bad effects from gambling, they should be able to think that maybe it is time for them to get out of gambling rather than things getting worse. But only a few gamblers can make the right decisions while others continue gambling and don't think about their gambling addiction. These problems will continue to arise, especially if they do not make efforts to overcome their gambling addiction, and this will make the impact bigger, and they will not be able to cure their gambling addiction.

Many gamblers experience defeat, but many of them continue to gamble as if defeat is a waiting time for them to win. But they will still find it difficult to win and will only experience more defeats. Meanwhile, if there are gamblers who can win, the amount of their wins will not be as big as the number of losses, so when compared with their losses, the gamblers still lose. And that's what frustrates many gamblers because they can't get the win they want, but strangely, this triggers them even more to keep gambling. They still want to feel like they are winning and may deposit more money to win. But unfortunately, even if they deposit more money, it still doesn't guarantee they can win. Gamblers must be able to become wise gamblers. They can think that they should gamble in moderation and not need to chase wins so that they don't get stressed and frustrated.
832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner needs your advices in gambling. on: December 24, 2023, 02:16:08 PM
I’m a new member here, and I want to gamble on online casinos. I found some good trusted casinos. And I want to begin with a game with a low budget. First, I need your suggestions about the best games, slots. Live casino for a beginner.
Do you think Me starting gambling would effect me in my real life or make me addicted to gambling. What’s you suggestion and advices.
Because of the hazards involved, it is not recommended that you participate in gambling as a biginner for the time being. Gambling demands some things before you begin, and if you don't have them, you don't need to suffer to participate. First, you most certainly have emotional problems, and second, you most likely have a successful income that does not rely just on gambling, because relying solely on gambling will be a regret for you.

Gambling is not something a person can rely with because you can't win the bet every day, you can win and lose at same time. Therefore, my modest advise to you, buddy is to avoid allowing gaming to become an addicted to your body, even if you truly want to start gamble.
It is best that before he starts gambling for the first time, he can learn discipline, self-control, etc., so that he can control himself while gambling. Most gamblers will lose self-control after gambling a few times because they underestimate the self-control required when gambling. When they gamble and experience defeat, their emotions will start to increase along with the results they get from gambling. If they don't have strong self-control, they will only follow their ego to continue gambling and will not pay attention to when they should stop gambling. And they only think about how to win the gambling game instead of how to enjoy it.

Especially if he wants to play slots, this slot game is very tempting to play for a long time. If they see that they have not been able to win slot games, there will be a desire to continue playing slots. And that means they will use more money even if they use small money bets. And they will rely on gambling to make money even though it is difficult to earn. After they have been gambling for a while, they should be able to see the fact that gambling is not about making money. They can only enjoy gambling as entertainment.

It might be in the ethics of gambling that the owners and workers don't gamble, I wouldn't know the reason why, but I'm guessing that they know the implications of being addicted in gambling, perhaps they'd rather have their customers do the gamble and be addicted while they can be more focused on collecting the money. I have a friend that worked in a sports bet company, he told me that as workers that they're not permitted to bet, I asked him why and he replied that it's the instruction that they're given. He also told me that if they want to bet, that they do so through a second party, so I concluded that bet and casino companies knows that loses are greater than winnings and they don't want themselves or their employees to be distracted, in the case of loses that'll affect their work.
Having your own casino business is more profitable for casino owners because they can make a lot of money. We know that this gambling business is a big business that can provide big profits for the owner. A casino worker is not allowed to gamble at the casino where he works. But maybe that is an exception for the casino owner, especially if it is an online casino because the owner can create a new account for himself to gamble so that no one knows that he is also gambling at his own casino.

And there is a possibility that casino owners will visit other casinos to gamble. This will be even easier if it is an online casino because the casino owner can gamble at any online casino without anyone knowing that he is a casino owner. But if it was an offline casino, there's a chance some workers from other casinos would recognize him.

If it was easy on the first place then we would see that gambling business or venture or industry wont really be that profitable or wont really be able to boom out but we are seeing the different side of things on which it would really be just that right that you should really be that responsible on the actions that you are making. You cant really just that make yourself that too careless when it comes to spending because it would really be that ended on devastation and addiction would really be coming into that severe manner.Once you do make yourself get shackled with gambling addiction
then it would really be that hard for you to get out or would be able to quit upon. This is why you should really be that careful and sensible on the things that you are dealing with.
And you are right in saying that we have to be really careful and wise about things related to gambling because, after all, gambling can easily make us tempted. Many people have fallen into gambling because they do not have good self-control, so they become addicted to gambling after playing gambling for a while. To anticipate gambling addiction, they must be able to have substitute activities for gambling so that they don't always think about gambling and only keep themselves busy with other activities. They know that keeping themselves busy with other activities can make them forget about gambling every day so that they are not dependent on gambling for entertainment.

That's right, getting or having a decent job is better than depending on income from gambling because it is also unethical if they make gambling the main income in their daily lives because obviously gambling will not always get a profitable win it is also unlikely that those who make gambling their main income will have a steady profit or income. they must be able to distinguish which things are for entertainment and which things make a profit working or investing will benefit them, because someday they will be faced with a sudden thing in their lives and of course it requires money to overcome it it is impossible for them to rely on gambling which is not clear that it will provide them with income properly, by having a job that has a fixed income it can generate monthly income and after that they only have to manage their finances properly, If they set aside a little of their monthly income they must be able to limit it, they must feel sufficient with the budget that has been set, because even if they gamble with the budget set it does not rule out the possibility that they will not increase their gambling sessions but it can be ascertained that if they have a good mindset, they will probably gamble responsibly And they must be able to limit their gambling activities properly so as not to extend the gambling session by using the money that has been divided evenly, they already have a portion of the amount of money set, so try not to spend more money than what has been set.

It depends on the person, if they still have energy they can look for a side job to generate additional income, but if they already feel tired I don't think they will do that, in my opinion they can start their own business which is small but must clearly produce, like in my neighborhood many young people are competing to make coffee shops that are currently trending, but they can't manage it well so that the coffee shop they made doesn't last long, I think starting a business like this is better than looking for a part-time job because with a business like this they can run it casually with no targets set,  but if they make it with a comfortable concept it will attract the attention of many people especially young people today who always hang out in coffee shops either to chat with their friends and maybe there are also people who need a place like this for them to do work. The point is that if they want a successful life they must be willing to try their best or not they must also be willing to manage the business well because it will determine the future. many things can be done to make money today, because with the development of technology today it makes it easier for everything, they must be able to make the best use of it, don't just use the current technology that is developing with online gambling alone, it won't work.
They should really realize that getting a job is much better than relying on gambling to make money. In getting a job, they can look for it around where they live, and if they are willing to accept it, they can start making money so they will not depend on gambling to make money. But if they continue to rely on gambling and don't want to look for a decent job, they will only lose their money, and it will increase even more if they don't realize that their money is getting smaller. But when they can make money from their work, they will have income useful to meet their needs and can think of other ways to make more money. They can think about finding investments that can provide profits in the future so that their money will increase, and with bitcoin, they have that opportunity. Hopefully, people out there will start to think about avoiding gambling and not using gambling as a place to make money, let alone making it a source of income, because they won't always be able to make money from gambling. They only need to limit their gambling activities if they can make money from their work and focus on increasing their money through investment or creating a new business that can be a source of income for both.

If they still want to earn more income besides having a job and investments, they can look for other sources of income by looking for additional work. I have met many friends who have additional work in their spare time so that their free time is not wasted, but they can use it to earn more income. That's a smart way to get extra income to help your finances improve. And from all these sources of income, their lives will be better, and when their investments can provide results or profits, they will get even more money. It helps their lives, and this will be a trigger for them so they can look for more sources of income. If people have reached such a stage, they will not use gambling to make money, and they may even abandon gambling because they cannot make money from gambling.
836  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one did you use to gamble with more on: December 24, 2023, 10:48:51 AM
I also prefer betting before the game starts. The amount of money I have allocated for placing bets on sports betting makes me not want to miss out on betting before the game starts. I don't place bets when the match has already started, but I may try later, especially if I place a bet too late before the match starts.

But placing a bet before the match starts requires knowing which team we choose. Usually, we will start analyzing after knowing which teams will compete, and after getting the analysis results, we can immediately place a bet. We don't need to place a bet if we don't know anything about the match because that will make us lose. But some people place bets randomly on the teams that will compete, leaving it all up to the final result. If they win, they are lucky because they only place bets randomly. But if they lose, they have to accept it, and in the next bet, they have to analyze the match before it starts.

Having a break is indeed a must when you are experiencing a loss streak, but if you are in the middle of the game and you keep experiencing loss, most gamblers wouldn't accept the fact that they would quit with a loss so they would try to recover it which can worsen the situation. This is mostly from gamblers who cannot handle their emotions cause of what you would feel normally if you lost. Isn't the feeling of winning and the urge to keep continuing until you recover and profit. They won't even check their funds and money as they are focused on recovering ending up draining their wallets. Limits and restrictions are a must, you can start gambling by just bringing a limited amount to bet to stop loss, so whenever you feel like recovering and keep continuing, you're already out of money.
Who knows, if we have finished resting and will continue gambling another day or on that day, it might attract luck to come to our aid so that we can win. This can happen because after resting for a while, our minds become calmer and can think about whether we really want to continue gambling or have had enough gambling. If we have experienced a loss in a previous gambling game and we don't see any chance for us to win, we will choose not to continue gambling that day and will choose to leave the casino and come back another day. And if we have won, we should finish the gambling game and withdraw the winning money so that we can enjoy the winning money with friends or people around us.

It can also help us practice self-control, which is always needed when playing gambling. We will not fall into gambling by continuing to gamble because we know that resting is the best thing we can do after gambling for a while. By resting, we can also check the remaining money we have, and if we are wise, we will still stop gambling and will not use the remaining money to continue gambling.

The gambling addiction also help to become the successful person in the gambling site.But the people only think about the financial problem by the gambling addiction,but they never consider about the big win in gambling by the gambling addicted.You can read about the story of the person who had won huge money in the gambling industry,in the past surely they was the gambling addiction.So don’t see the gambling addiction as the negative impact.Also need to consider about the big win in the gambling site.
But we have to realize that gambling addiction can lead people to fall deeper into gambling, especially if they keep losing. We must know that people who are successful on gambling sites are not as many as people who experience large losses on gambling sites, so we tend to say that gambling addiction will lead someone to ruin or bankruptcy. This is what we have to realize for most gamblers who end up becoming addicted to gambling will only cause more problems for themselves and the people around them.

Maybe people who are addicted to gambling can get big wins on gambling sites. But who knows that the number of wins will exceed the number of losses because many people actually experience more losses than wins. This ultimately makes many people frustrated because they cannot win like other gamblers, so they continue to gamble.

It will give some breathing to refresh and to find that wisdom behind that you already lose when you suffer from losing streak, better to stop and pause from gambling as the damage that can be done is really huge, gambler who already aggressive to recover most of the time is willing to take the Yolo bet a win or go home bet and gambling house would love to see that as most of the time it favors the house and it give them decent profits from that out of control yolo take of the gambler.

You suffer and everything is a regret, unlike if you stop and follow your setup before playing, it will give you the time and chance to adjust and maybe another good look for your next sessions.
Taking a break from gambling can allow you to think that you have experienced a losing streak and no longer need to try gambling just because you want to recover from previous losses. You will see that your chances of recovering your losses will be less, and you could lose even more money. You will also see that the house has won a lot of money while you have lost a lot of money and have not managed to win even once.

And when you can stop gambling after suffering a losing streak, you will learn another new lesson where you no longer need to spend so much money. You only need to allocate a certain amount of money to gamble and place restrictions on gambling so that you don't lose a lot. That's what every gambler must do so they are okay with seeing their losses become more frequent.

Actually, you don't need to force your will to pursue victory, that would be easy. The thing is that you have to force your will to not pursue victory, or to not chase your losses. That's the hardest bit. And if you can do that most of the time(no one can do it all the time), you are a successful gambler regardless of whether you are in profit money-wise or not.
Indeed, we don't need to force our will to chase win, but the problem is that when they have won, most gamblers want an even bigger win. This makes them continue to gamble and look like they are chasing their winnings, and many of them do this unconsciously because of that desire. They want to get even bigger wins, so they intend to continue gambling even though they have to deposit more money. But that won't happen to professional gamblers because they don't want to do that. They already know that if they chase their winnings, it is difficult, and it could lead to more losses. They can make good decisions because they have more experience than most gamblers.
