441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How possible is it to win lottery 14 times using mathematics calculations on: March 27, 2024, 08:03:20 PM
Games are easily manipulated therefore lottery as well could be rigged and there's no way any person could win repeatedly for 14 times without missing, and of course there is phishy manipulation behind this otherwise we can't find someone overly winning for that numbers of time.
Or do we say anything is possible?
Well from my knowledge about gambling have never came across such thing being so common and popular where someone do win, although winning gambling doesn't come consistent maybe it could be occasionally.

Although basically nothing is impossible but when it comes to gambling activities then I think yes it is very unlikely to be able to get such a good win with a total of 14 consecutive winning transactions, I don't believe it but I think this is too impossible and if it is true then maybe he is one of the record breakers in this type of betting and I don't know if there is manipulation or not behind the scenes about this victory but one thing, I can't really believe this news.

The reason why I don't believe in this news is because in my opinion overall gambling is always about hit and miss activities and can never be predicted about the results at the end of the session which means you will only win when you are lucky while on the other hand luck is always unknowable when it comes and when it goes and also it is very difficult to achieve a lucky streak of 14x in a row like this, there is no such thing as an element of consistency in terms of luck, because everything is always about "occasional and coincidence", so I think your suspicion is right.
442  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Is Legal In Our Country But if You Promote It Online You'll Go To Jail? on: March 27, 2024, 07:43:15 PM
However it is the rules of the country that confuse me, as discussed that the government allows people to gamble in physical casinos but they prohibit people from posting anything that smells of gambling on social media or online, As you said above that when a country legalizes gambling activities, it means that the regulations will apply as a whole in the sense that people are free to gamble anywhere whether it is a physical casino or online and also they should be allowed to post something that smells of gambling on online media, because sometimes there like people who want to publicize the results of their gambling such as big wins as an act of telling others that they are very lucky.

As I said above this is a very confusing rule and I think some people here would agree, and the real law should be as you said which is that if gambling is banned then obviously anyone in the country should not be able to touch, post, publish or discuss gambling or anything gambling related, but if it is legalized then there should be freedom to do anything gambling related, and I think the conclusion is that the government is not strict enough in terms of implementing this rule which should be applied across the board to all places.
Totally confusing on which its legal but not allowed to have those advertisement or posting up winnings? that would be surely be creating that kind of question in mind on why they do really
have those kind of rule or regulation on which its something no sense. How would those companies would really be doing their marketing on this method or kind of ruling?
Totally that hard to market on something having this kind of rules and regulations but well as a citizens or company owners then you wont really be able to do something
because we are really that following on whats mandated and there's nothing we can do about that.

If you dont like to go to jail then follow those rules or laws then you should really be just that fine.  Smiley

Yes this regulation triggers many questions especially from us people who just found out about the existence of such regulations in a country and I'm sure the people there will also initially feel strange when the first time a regulation like this is published, and yes I agree with you that another question is how casino companies can promote their casinos while now is the digital era where 90% of people are more interested in being or active in the world of social media and as we know that in most other countries social media is one of the biggest places for some businesses to showcase and promote their products including gambling promotions.

With this kind of regulation, it seems that the casino industry there only promotes physically or that means not touching the online world which I think the results will not be too optimal because most people in all countries are more active in online media, and yes it is true that in the end there will be nothing they can do there but follow the rules that are enforced and what I worry about is that there will most likely be individuals who accidentally and unknowingly publish something that smells of gambling on online media which makes them have to be punished.
443  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cruel level of addiction, causing harms and still keeping it up on: March 27, 2024, 05:56:30 PM
I think there are many unobvious things that prevent a person from getting rid of gambling addiction. I think one of the main ones is the hope that a person can one day get a series of big wins and get rich from gambling. Until this hope leaves a person, it will play. You know, not all gamers, even experienced ones, want to quit the game. Even if they suffer from losses. In the depths of their souls, there is still hope that someday that happy day will come when good luck will come to them and they will get rich. This forces them to take out loans and continue to drown in a financial swamp.

Yes, it is a reasonable reason, friend, where someone has great hope and confidence that someday they will be able to succeed in getting a very large win and maybe they consider that something they have lost today is a sacrifice to get a much bigger win someday so they continue to maintain themselves to stay involved in gambling despite the fact that it tortures themselves in various aspects of life.

When in fact the concept of gambling is that everything or the odds will return to the starting point when you have finished the session with any result whether it is winning or losing, in the sense that even if for example now you win it does not mean that in the next session you will win again which means that the possibility of losing still has a great chance of happening, and this is why we should bet the amount of money that we can afford to lose because this is useful to make you feel less upset about losing which will certainly be able to make you avoid the act of chasing victory to restore something that has been lost before. So in my opinion the real problem and the mistake that exists in the mind of a gambler who always thinks that someday they will be able to get a big win is that from the beginning of their involvement they do not understand about the real concept of gambling which ultimately makes them gamble in the wrong way, approach, expectations, and beliefs.

Yes that's right, however depending on how the person is or I mean it all depends on the personality of the person, the situation can be as you said that it is a possibility that after having children or after having a family someone still does not care about something that should be their responsibility and some are normal in the sense that they become more responsible and all of this depends on how the personality is and also how severe the level of their involvement in gambling is.

I think you may have seen or read elsewhere about a father who left his toddler at home alone to go to a casino to gamble, and clearly this is behavior and actions that reflect that he is a family man who is so irresponsible that he would risk the life of his own child just to gamble.
Not all people would really be that responsible in regarding about their actions on which there would really be still those people who would really be sticking into their principles or ideas in mind despite on having
their own family on which it would really be that a common approach that they would really be that sticking on playing gambling or something that they've been getting used to despite on having that new
responsibilities in life. Gambling or putting up focus into that despite on having a family? You are really that just basically putting up your family into such issues when it comes to finances.

We do know that when it comes to gambling then you are really that spending tons of money on which if you do have a family then this is something much needed when it comes to budgeting.
If you are a parent but ended up on cutting those expenses just because you are playing gambling and your family doesnt have that proper way of living when it comes to clothes, food
and other basic needs then you are just that showing on how irrresponsible you are.

I think we can measure or predict whether they will be able to be responsible or not in terms of how or how bad or whether they are responsible gamblers or vice versa, because obviously if you are a responsible gambler in the sense of being able to manage and control your gambling activities properly and according to your abilities then I think the gambling activities that you often do will not really affect the financial situation in your family relationship, But if it's the other way around or if before marriage you were an irresponsible gambler or an addicted gambler then I think this type of gambler will not care about any situation, meaning that the situation with full responsibility after they have a family is unlikely for them to be able to think about reducing their excessive gambling in the sense that they will still gamble in a bad way that will endanger themselves and their families.

Overall and from the few cases that have happened, I would agree with you that most of the time gambling only makes a person experience financial problems in life regardless of whether they are single or married, and however I will not forget the best advice and ideas which is obviously the best decision is to quit and get out of the gambling habit regardless of whether you are a responsible gambler or otherwise, because this is what is best for long-term security.
445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't make your bets when you're tired on: March 27, 2024, 05:03:57 PM
Emotional stress is one of the biggest thing that could actually affect anyone when gamble because you would need every part of your brain to be functional and active when playing and that's why even a simple glitch in the focus of mind can lead to so many errors while gambling and even mistakes so it's better to gamble when refresh and relaxed because you would be thinking straight and not doing crazy things just to get at the winning that might be getting so hard to come.
Gambling when a person is under stress can make it difficult for him to win as well as he will not be able to enjoy the real pleasure of gambling. Generally if we don't think of any source of income from gambling then there is no need for gambling during the time when we are busy with our work. Moreover, when a gambler is too busy or feeling tired, there is no better decision that can later have a major impact on his gambling life. Betting should never be done in a situation where a gambler is not completely mentally exhausted. Since gambling is now deeply associated with financial matters, every gambler should gamble in a completely stress-free environment or else he will never succeed in his goal in gambling.

There is a point, but I think gambling when you are stressed or tired does not mean that it will make it difficult for you to win because the name of luck can happen at any time without you expecting it but maybe a stressful or tired situation can make a person experience mistakes in terms of making decisions that can make the possibility of losing even greater, and yes it is true as you said that if we do not have the goal of earning from gambling then we better not force ourselves to gamble but with their decision to force the situation too much by gambling even though they are in a situation that does not allow it means they come with the intention and purpose to earn.

However, you are giving good advice by telling people not to gamble when they are tired or in a stressful situation due to other things in their life, but sometimes the advice will not apply to gamblers who are already addicted or it means that it is very difficult to give them advice even if it is the best for them.
446  Other / Off-topic / Re: Dont chase your loss on: March 27, 2024, 04:22:43 PM

Your advice is very good, we should not force ourselves to pursue something that we are not sure we will get and that will also make things worse in life because we as gamblers should be able to control our emotions well and must accept all forms of events. it happened. we will meet, try to understand it wisely. that losing and winning will definitely happen and being responsible is the key to facing it all.
It's true, sometimes we are unlucky therefore ending gambling can save your money from bigger losses. Emotional control is the main point here, which not everyone can implement. This means that most people are still carried away by the atmosphere of the game, and think that by adding a little more capital they can get back the money they have lost.

Not sometimes but the fact is that it is difficult to get lucky to lead us to victory and in addition the overall profit is only for the casino itself and this is the reason why we lose more often than win and this is also the reason why gambling is really prohibited to be made a place to earn unless you come with only the intention of entertainment or filling spare time because with intentions and goals like this then I think it is less likely for you to overdo it.

Basically if you feel that gambling is interfering with your life especially in terms of your finances then obviously the best decision as you said above is to quit gambling, but if you still want to engage in this activity then yes obviously self-control along with applying some other restrictions such as budget, time, and expectations must be applied because this is the only thing that can keep you safe and avoid bad possibilities in the long run, although I'm not sure that you or anyone else can apply it but no problem, at least we have given the best advice.
447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where is the fun when you lose your money? on: March 27, 2024, 04:01:32 PM
Hi community,

When we make a bet and put our money on the line, we may lose money, time, and even some daily tasks that we neglect, and the first goal remains to make a quick profit with the largest possible amount of money, but I do not know why some people consider bets to be more  for fun  and a way to spend time than to win money.

Personally, I would consider it fun when my budget is much greater than my losses or when I gamble with someone else's money, and this is something I would not do if I had no benefit in it.

I think there are those who agree with me and those who do not agree with me, but it remains my personal opinion and it's an opportunity to share it with you on this topic.

So where's the fun when you lose your money?

I think your contradicting your choice of words here,what are you really trying to say here,you saying  you consider gamble as fun when you use someone else's money to gamble.oh you think you don't generate loss when you do so?? Or what are you trying to say  please.
Your thread isn't direct and it needs a lot of straight and vivid explanation.
 
But on the other hand I'll lay my point by saying gambling is set aside for fun,if you choose to loose money while doing so,it's because you do it as regards to the fun you get and with the fact that what you gamble with is something you can afford to loose that at least a 1% of your income or finance.

Yes gambling is fully recommended only to be an entertainment activity when you have quite boring free time, but the idea and purpose of gambling for fun does not mean that we reject or do not want victory because no matter what and regardless of the amount of victory it is a situation that will make us more happy when indeed we manage to achieve luck in one of the gambling sessions that we do, but the difference is that gamblers who come with goals and intentions for entertainment they will not go overboard in pursuit of victory and they will only consider the victory as a bonus or a gift given from luck.

While most other gamblers gamble with the aim and intention of making money which from this alone we can already conclude and ascertain that it is highly unlikely for them not to go overboard or to apply limits and controls on their gambling activities because their aim is to multiply or make money. So of course this is the reason why we are better off making gambling as a means of entertainment, meaning that when you lose then you will not be too emotional because you are not too hopeful about winning and if it turns out that you managed to win then cashing out is a decision that will most likely be made because the purpose of pleasure will be able to prevent you from the aspect of greed.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How possible is it to win lottery 14 times using mathematics calculations on: March 26, 2024, 08:18:25 PM
The mathematician might have used probability and statistics to find patterns in lottery numbers. We all know that lotteries are about luck, but I think, using mathematical is an advantage to try to increase chances of winning. Although we should also understand and remember that there is no foolproof method that winning is guaranteed by using these kind of techniques.

yes it's true that there is an advantage if you get the right calculations and steps to win a lottery but we have no certainty that this will lead you to consistent winnings because I still believe that gambling, specifically in the lottery is more on luck only, no one has been able to prove that there are exact computations on how to win it, and if there is, he will definitely not share it with other people.

Actually whatever type of game you play if it is still related to gambling or something that is a betting activity then still in the end the result at the end of the session is always about uncertainty, or what it means is that you will never know about what will happen at the end of the session between winning or losing even if for example as you say here that you have managed to get the right calculation, and I would say that you can't actually say that your calculations are correct because the outcome at the end of the session is still unanswered which means that it is still very possible for you to end the session with a loss and means that something that you think is correct is nothing more than just your initial feelings.

In the end, according to what you believe, yes it is true, however and any type of gambling in the end will still refer to luck that will ensure whether we will actually be able to win or not, no matter how skilled you are in analyzing or calculating, the overall possibility of losing will always be a sure thing.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Is Legal In Our Country But if You Promote It Online You'll Go To Jail? on: March 26, 2024, 07:58:27 PM
the thing is that each country have their own rules and regulation concerning gambling and if you fail to obey the rules and the regulation of that country you'll be having issues I know quite well that most of the gambling platform always pay tax to the country that legalized them but some country who does not accept gambling I'm the song gambling platforms operate there it is based on the gambling are doing their things on secret so that is one thing I will say so, nothing is that there's nothing a country can do someone who is addicted in gambling can skip gambling any day or any content time we have to know that that whoever that is addicted in gambling you cannot stop the person to gamble
It's a different thing if a country doesn't allow gambling at all and some platforms still operate within that jurisdiction, but if a country has legalized gambling, which means you are allowed to gamble and casinos are allowed to operate, why the hell would one go to jail if they have posted something or discussed gambling somewhere online? That doesn't sound like a normal law.

A normal law is that gambling is banned or illegal in a country and then anyone who is seen getting engaged with gambling or even posting or discussing it is doing a punishable offense, but somewhere where gambling is legal, people should be allowed to post or discuss about it anywhere they want.

However it is the rules of the country that confuse me, as discussed that the government allows people to gamble in physical casinos but they prohibit people from posting anything that smells of gambling on social media or online, As you said above that when a country legalizes gambling activities, it means that the regulations will apply as a whole in the sense that people are free to gamble anywhere whether it is a physical casino or online and also they should be allowed to post something that smells of gambling on online media, because sometimes there like people who want to publicize the results of their gambling such as big wins as an act of telling others that they are very lucky.

450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is AI going to affect gambling in any way ? on: March 26, 2024, 07:38:34 PM

"Enhanced analytics" and similar things are simply ways to make money by selling those stats, but in reality you can't make money by gambling with that information.

At the end of the day the odds are a given, and the more possible an outcome, the less the casinos will pay.

That's simply the reality.
Yes, I also don't want to place a bet using analysis produced by other people and it would be better when placing a bet to analyze myself about the team I am going to place a bet on, because by analyzing it yourself of course you will be able to enjoy the win or loss from the results we get. own analysis and not based on other people's analysis.
I agree with what you are trying to describe, when the chance of winning is certain of course there is little chance that the casino will pay it out.

It is true and indeed something that is more advisable which is better to gamble by using our own way and not rely on other people or AI-like systems, however gambling will still be an activity that can never be predicted accurately no matter how skilled you are which means that if the time is lost then yes you will lose or vice versa. And in addition for me gambling is a matter of luck which means when you are lucky then you will win, regardless of where you gamble even if you bet in the type of sports betting that does require skill to increase the possibility of victory but still ultimately will refer to luck because sometimes we often find some unexpected events on the field that make the situation turn around which there is a great possibility for your favorite team to end up losing.

On the other hand, of course, by gambling using our own way, we will really be able to enjoy the process whatever the results at the end of the session we do about winning or losing, so I think betting using other people's methods or depending on other people will not be completely influential.
451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cruel level of addiction, causing harms and still keeping it up on: March 26, 2024, 07:18:06 PM
The mind of addictive gamblers totally changed after a consecutive losses then they don't think about anyone and continuously gamble just to get back their lost sum but it is not easy in gambling like every gambler thinks. I don't think that gambler will ever try to reduce their gambling habits because they have learned that more they gambler more they will earn which is totally a wrong concept.

Gamblers do not understand with sweet words of their family and if someone's parents teach gambler to stop gambling then it is not possible for him to alter this behavior because gambler thoughts are limited to earning only as well as Love cannot change the thoughts of gamblers.

True, what you mentioned is one of the facts about the actions taken by addicted gamblers where they will not think of ways to stop especially when winning because one of the hardest things for them is to stop when they are in a losing situation which is because they have no ability at all to accept the fact of the consequences of gambling. They think that the idea and action of chasing that win will get them in a recovery situation when the fact remains that when you have ended the previous session with a loss or a win then the next session is likely to change the outcome which means that there is a high chance for you to lose again if you continue gambling with the intention and purpose of recovering something that you have lost.

I think it is a fact that it is very unlikely for them to really listen to the advice of others, whoever you are even if for example you are one of their family still they will not listen to any advice because addicted gamblers have a high ambition to pursue something that has been lost based on emotions and unreasonable beliefs. 
452  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does having children have an influence on gambling habits? on: March 26, 2024, 06:57:53 PM
^

In fact, it's not all that clear-cut. There are some gamblers who did not become wiser or more responsible after children appeared in their family. There are quite a few stories when the head of the family, addicted to gambling, left his children, who can not take care of themselves, alone at home, and disappeared into the casino for several hours.  Therefore, having children makes someone wiser and more responsible, and someone does not, and rather everything depends on the person himself, not on the fact of having children in the family.

Yes that's right, however depending on how the person is or I mean it all depends on the personality of the person, the situation can be as you said that it is a possibility that after having children or after having a family someone still does not care about something that should be their responsibility and some are normal in the sense that they become more responsible and all of this depends on how the personality is and also how severe the level of their involvement in gambling is.

I think you may have seen or read elsewhere about a father who left his toddler at home alone to go to a casino to gamble, and clearly this is behavior and actions that reflect that he is a family man who is so irresponsible that he would risk the life of his own child just to gamble.
453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot game with increasing RTP on: March 26, 2024, 05:35:22 PM
Recently I played new game of Push Gaming Swarm Wild 2. I don’t play the first version so I don’t have any idea if the game has same features but what I really on this slot game is it has a feature that increase the slot RTP when you increase the hive level through collecting bees.

The increase of RTP gives you more chance to win higher multiplier on chest and a possibility to have swarm mode which increases multiplier of the bonus mode. I think I play some slot game like this on Play’n Go but I already forgot the name. Does anyone here play this kind of slot game and is your favorite so that I can try it too!

Here’s the review of swarm mode 2 for those interested to check the game specifications. https://www.bigwinboard.com/wild-swarm-2-push-gaming-slot-review/

There are other gamblers who often play slot games based on the RTP. When the percentage is high, they prefer to stay in those games because some players think that the chances of them winning are high. in those games.

But for me, I don't believe in that, because if you are really lucky on the day you play, even if you play and bet, you will win for sure, and if you are unlucky, even if you play games in a casino, you will win. You won't win because you were unlucky that day.

Yes, it is true and I have one friend who is a gambler on slot games where he always plays by making the RTP machine as a reference or simply as you said above that when the RTP percentage on one of the games is high then they will choose or stick to the game, all of this is based on their feelings and beliefs that they think the high RTP percentage will be able to increase their chances of winning closer. Honestly, I don't really know about that, but let's think with the logic that the whole gambling is to benefit the casino and on the other hand the RTP is provided by the casino itself which means it is not a very possible thing that the RTP is manipulated? I think this is a suspicion that should be in your mind, where there is a possibility that the casino makes the percentage of the game high when in fact the game's performance is very bad.

Right, I agree with you that I don't really believe in it either, because as I said above that if we think rationally using logic then I think it's something that should be suspected and not used as a reference for choosing games, in the end you will still be able to win when you are lucky, it's that simple.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't make your bets when you're tired on: March 26, 2024, 04:50:58 PM

 In general, I realized my mistake and no longer made my bets while I was tired. Concentration is the most important thing in any effort we make, and we must always be at full mental strength, as there are many factors that may affect your chances of winning or losing.

I hope everyone benefits from my experience, thank you

I never play or gamble when I'm tired I cannot and will not enjoy the game, and I find it weird if you still can enjoy the game if you're tired and sleepy, you'll only do this if you're playing to make money but instead of making money, you will end up losing easily.

You have a hard time making a decision and like your experience, people will be confused about the amount, it's bad for your health and pocket if you're mind wanders, gambling needs focus to be able to enjoy the game and see the best opportunity to make money.

I think it is no longer strange to gamble even though they are in a situation and state of fatigue due to other activities, because basically if we talk about gamblers who are addicted, it is clear that they will not care about any situation, whether they are tired or whatever, the first thing on their mind is gambling, which is usually someone who has entered the addiction phase, even they are very likely to justify any means to be able to gamble, Like in terms of budget, if for example they don't have a budget then they will use loans as an alternative, they always force things and also they cannot see any situation and condition or simply a tired or unfocused situation is not something that can prevent them from continuing their desire to gamble.

Back to the discussion at the beginning that yes it is true as you said above that gambling when we are in a tired situation can trigger many problems due to mistakes that are made unconsciously due to lack of concentration in terms of making decisions, and I think someone who comes with the intention of enjoying a gambling session I think they will not be rash in making decisions or simply put it is certain that they will not force themselves to gamble when they are feeling tired.
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you stake it all put of over confidence in your club on: March 26, 2024, 04:14:22 PM
True, those are words that can make your friend or anyone feel supported or encouraged to continue his actions to bet even very large money which is where such words might make them even more convinced that they really have to "do it", whereas on the other hand high confidence will usually only lead you to disappointment at the end of the session when everything does not go according to what you want.

Therefore, as you said, it is better to be neutral in terms of giving advice to others about betting issues, especially to your friends, where the more appropriate ideas and suggestions are as you said above, namely telling him that he doesn't have to push too hard because after all, supporting a club doesn't always have to mean risking money and also yes, it is definitely better to suggest something more reasonable, such as trying to advise them to bet an amount that they can afford if for example they have the mind to bet a large amount because they are driven by their beliefs, Because obviously this action will be able to prevent something that is not wanted such as results that do not match expectations that can make them end up with disappointment and regret.
It's really better to become neutral in terms of giving advise for someone that's already addicted or going onto that point. You don't have to trigger them just because they're a fan or not because if you do, what if they bet with their life savings and they eventually lose? you might even be blamed for that because you're the one who dared them to do it.
That's why, I'd avoid this kind of argument with my friends just to prove that they're a real bettor or fan of a club or sports.

Yes because the problem is that they have entered the addiction phase which is the worst phase in gambling because there are a lot of problems that they will experience when the level of interest in gambling is quite high, but I think giving advice that is suggested or that is neutral depends on the person too, or the point is that maybe the person who will give the advice does not know about the dangers of the bad effects of treating gambling in the wrong way.

I think if for example the situation is that the person giving the advice is someone who doesn't really understand the dangers of gambling if done in an excessive way then of course there is a possibility for them to still advise their friend to bet a high amount and we can conclude that these are two typical people who are too focused on winning and don't have a true understanding of what gambling really is, the impact is that maybe the person who gets the advice will feel like he is fully supported to really bet a large amount. On the other hand I can't really blame his friend because after all their ignorance about the dangers of gambling is the problem, but if the opposite in the sense that you know about the various bad effects that exist in gambling but you advise others to act aggressively then yes clearly you are someone who supports others to get into big trouble.
456  Other / Off-topic / Re: Dont chase your loss on: March 26, 2024, 03:32:58 PM
Yes it is true that the things that lead to the best approach to gambling are easier said than done, but nevertheless it is the best way we can do to minimize the possibility of too significant risks and maybe I will not give up on suggesting the best things to gamblers out of concern for safety. Looking at gambling as a place to make money is a mindset that will be very harmful to themselves which as you said will only lead to a worse situation later on.

I think it is a fact that when someone comes with the intention and purpose of earning then usually they will justify all means just to pursue victory such as making decisions that are completely unreasonable and beyond their abilities which is where this mindset will continue to end their session with disappointment because obviously even if you win you still won't be able to ignore the greed aspect in yourself which in the end makes you lose all the winnings at the beginning and the losing situation is also not much different which when losing I am sure that you will not be able to accept the fact of defeat which in the end as you said that they will act to pursue something that has been lost, it's like you're chasing your own shadow which will never work. So of course this is the reason why it is more advisable to gamble with the aim of entertainment because with this then I am sure you will not put excessive expectations on winning.

Viewing gambling as an entertaining game is something that is difficult for anyone to do. All current daily living expenses are settled with money. Even rich people, when participating in this game of chance, want to earn additional profits from gambling. Money is very important. Therefore, when anyone plays a game related to money, everyone wants to be the winner and regretfully wants to get back the lost money.

I think there are probably only a few people who consider gambling an entertaining game. When gambling, I think I should have a strong stance. Set strict goals and well-timed stops, and Gamble with money you can afford to lose. Only then will you be able to stay calm, not regret, and chase after the lost money.

Yes we can't lie that life is always about money because everything we need can be obtained only by using money such as shopping to meet the needs of life, and most people misunderstand what gambling really is, they don't really understand thoroughly about gambling and how winning works, what is in their minds is just "chances of winning" and they are too focused on that which in the end they unconsciously override the aspects of possible risks that are clearly inherent in gambling activities. This is the main problem where they are too focused on the chances of winning that they ignore other facts that exist in gambling such as the certainty of losing.

I understand that everyone wants to win but for some people they are able to balance their actions based on the right understanding where they gamble without putting too high expectations on winning or simply they always act carefully such as only putting the amount they can afford if they lose in the end because they understand that there is a possibility of losing in gambling, while some other gamblers are too pushy to get or realize the chances of winning by doing everything that doesn't even make sense which in the end will make them end up with a lot of problems, pressure and regret.

Yes I agree with you that very few people are able to think in a healthy way when it comes to gambling, all because of the winning opportunities that they think they can use to multiply the money they bring, but the fact is that in the end they are always slapped by the reality of losing even with a large amount, and obviously this is the reason why gambling is more recommended to be used as entertainment because when you don't put seriousness to earning then you will be able to limit your expectations or expectations of winning.

Some gamblers are betting and gambling because they needed money to earn a living, which they may not get this fulfilment through gambling because it's an entertainment medium and not an investment means, we need to look in for job if we n=think we cant afford to have losses in gambling and not to even start wasting much of our time while trying to chase after loss because we may not have that privilege for recovery, instead the losses keep compounding the more while trying to recover from them.

True, I think this has become a fact that most gamblers come to earn especially people who have problems in their finances which in the end they try to make gambling an alternative place to overcome their financial problems such as viewing gambling as a quick way to make ends meet and usually I see this kind of goal and mindset more owned by poor people. But the fact is as we know that gambling is not a place to earn, I understand that the chances of winning are for everyone which means whoever they are they have the opportunity to get a win, but what we have to understand is that gambling is something that cannot be predicted because everything always runs randomly to determine whether you win or lose.

Or simply you will never know whether you will win or lose in the session, while on the other hand the possibility of losing is always a sure thing and in the end the act or purpose of gambling to earn will cause a lot of problems, or simply instead of earning but what happens is that you lose money consistently due to an excessive or aggressive approach to gambling with the encouragement of the goal of earning. However, gambling is more recommended to be made as a place of entertainment because the uncertainty about the problem of getting a win is always a big reason why we should not make it a means of earning and if you still carry the mindset of gambling to earn then in the end it will only make you stuck in the cycle of chasing wins to recover the situation and there is no time limit set.

Where I am confused is that why won't he stopped already? Those that are addicted to gambling that i knew get to this same level of losing everything and they make a U-turn in the end, what is keeping him imprisoned ? His mind? or he is already crazy? Or even a spiritual attack?

Yes it is true that gambling addiction has its own level depending on how badly they treat gambling in the wrong way, or I mean depending on how aggressively they treat their gambling activities, and if you ask me about why they still continue their gambling activities when on the other hand they have lost all the valuable things in their lives such as large amounts of money, homes, businesses and families in my opinion it is simple that they have not been able to reach the level of awareness in themselves and also they have not been able to be in a situation to understand the fact that gambling is about winning and losing or gambling is a risky activity.

You only know a few of them where what you know is that a person who is addicted to gambling can turn back or stop and get out of the gambling zone while on the other hand there is a very chronic level of addiction where it is really very difficult for them to achieve self-awareness, they are still in a situation of not being able to let go of all that has been lost so they are still gambling which is where they have the goal of returning something that has been lost which is actually quite an impossible thing to achieve, because that action is like you are chasing your own shadow and I am sure that everything will still end up with significant regret.

It really depends on the person you are asking; we are different on this kind of question. But for me, of course, I gamble because I want to gain more money, risking it and hoping it will grow. Having fun in gambling is not the priority; maybe the next reason why you are gambling is because, not gonna lie, gambling is indeed really fun; it is like playing games, and predicting the outcome is very enjoyable, especially if you are in the role. Also, I think it is one of the things that we think whenever we lose, just to mend ourselves, we will say, "It is fine; we just gamble for fun," and after that, we will feel good.

At the end of the day, I think most of the gamblers gamble because they want more money, not because they are just gambling for fun. 

Everyone has their own goals and reasons why they come with these intentions such as to earn (multiply) or just for entertainment and these goals also come based on how they understand gambling itself, simply put if for example they come without having a mature understanding of what gambling really is then I think they will have the goal of gambling to earn like you here, but if basically they really understand that gambling is not just about the chances of winning but always involves the possibility of losing then they will prefer to make gambling a place to find entertainment.

On the other hand I understand that everyone needs money but I think it is an absurd mindset if you put the goal of earning on gambling, it is true the fact that casinos provide equal opportunities to all gamblers to get winnings which may be in different amounts, but what we have to remember here is that gambling runs randomly which means you can never know about what makes you win and what makes you lose because the name of gambling is always about unpredictable activities which means it only refers to luck. The point is as I said above that I understand everyone needs money but the fact is gambling is not the place to earn because of the risk of possible loss that will continue to lurk you, this is why we prefer to advise anyone to put entertainment purposes in gambling, because this is safer for long-term involvement. And yes it is a fact that when a person puts the goal of earning then I believe they have a high probability of doing everything possible to get a win while luck will not be able to come according to what you want, I think you can judge about which one is better to be a goal.

Obviously gambling can affect the financial balance in the family, regardless of whether you have children or not, still if you have entered a family situation or that means if for example you are married and have a wife or husband then your responsibilities will be greater than when you are single, especially if you are a husband who is the head of the family who must meet all the needs of your family's life which in fact can never be tolerated.

This means that you must always have money especially to minimize emergencies that can never be predicted, and obviously having a gambling habit has a high possibility of affecting the financial balance in the family which I think it is not uncommon for a family relationship to end in divorce due to financial problems caused by treating gambling in the wrong way regardless of whether you are a responsible gambler or not which will ultimately make you feel a greater responsibility because you also have to have a budget to fulfill your gambling habit in addition to the responsibility of meeting the needs of the family. Honestly, I have not yet entered the family phase or I mean I am still in a single situation but what is certain is that I will try to quit gambling first when I want to start a family or get married.
