781  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: stop the unnecessary blame on gambling whenever you get unlucky on: February 07, 2024, 09:05:09 PM

Its a good site for a gambler if he doesn't always imagine himself in terms of winning. Because a common complaint among gamblers is that they lose. Gamblers who can embrace the humanity of losing can manage to gamble successfully in the long run. A gambler who takes losing easily can never blame gambling. They rather try to find their faults there. Gambling involves winning and losing. Most of the time the losses will outnumber the wins. I think that simply accepting this defeat will reduce such type of blaming attitude.

What "faults" are you talking about? It looks like you think that if faults were identified, the number of losses would be reduced subsequently. But, in fact, no matter how much you analyze your play, you can't improve anything in purely luck-based games. Accepting defeat is a good attitude and it can improve your mood overall, but it will not make you win more.

It seems that there are still some gamblers who don't really understand the concept of real gambling Cheesy they are talking about something that is not fundamental, after all this is gambling and not a place that can turn someone into a rich man, and the idea of accepting mistakes for things that they think should not be done really has nothing to do with the results in the gambling they do, as you said even if they manage to identify their mistakes it will have nothing to do with the results at the end of the session, But identifying or knowing the mistakes and making changes is useful for a preventive measure, such as if you always suffer a lot of losses, then the problem and what should be changed is that you have to limit the time for involvement as well as the amount of budget allocated, and obviously this only leads to a preventive measure so that you no longer suffer large losses and does not mean that by doing this you can get bigger wins.

No matter what you do you will never be able to increase the winning percentage to a more "likely" one because the casino has everything organized behind the scenes, and that means you will only be able to win when you are really lucky, or your winnings depend on how lucky you are at the time of the session if you are involved in a purely lucky type of betting.
782  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does casino streamers have influence in your gambling life? on: February 07, 2024, 08:45:15 PM
I came across on YouTube where a gambling casino social influencer was streaming about a casinos platform.
He literally brought out his phone and was illustrating to the audiences that it is just few steps to take the winning on your games which is making choice of your predictions, choose amount to bet and also indicate his hashtag referral code and click on confirm.
Immediately you get credited directly to your account that just you won.
I just smiled but I want to ask, how many of you guys develops interests on a particular casino platform due to the influence of the casinos streamers?

I can understand people wanting to watch plenty of things out there, including streaming a wide variety of high graphics intensity games, but watching people play slots or any casino games just seems rather boring. Not only that, slots are inherently weighted towards the house, so you're ultimately watching either a) someone pouring their hard earned money (some of which might of came from their viewers) into a casino wallet or b) a scenario that has been staged or manipulated by different casinos in order to draw in more players, perhaps showing more wins than the average player would expect to receive. There is simply too much potential for manipulation in the black box that is an online casino to find it interesting.

I think only people who know or those who have just started involvement in gambling (beginners) will usually feel interested in watching streming done by stremers or influencers on some social media, because when you just get to know something that you think is quite interesting then you will feel something unusual, I mean that your interest is significant enough that you always try to find something related to what you want, such as looking for some stremer impressions that play gambling, for some people who already know about the facts behind the shows done by the stremers it will look boring, but for some beginners who are still very curious and do not know the real facts then it is a spectacle that they can make an example to do when they gamble, they hope to get a big win like the stremers get in the show, when in fact it's all nothing more than manipulation so that many people are interested and enter the casino that is being promoted. I would trust more and as far as I know everything that is shown is nothing more than manipulation to attract more people in, casinos pay strivers to promote their sites, and everything you see on the screen is nothing more than manipulation.

A player is always faced with the problem of when is the best time to stop. It always seems that just a little more - and the jackpot will be obtained. And there is always dissatisfaction with the winnings and the thought that you can win even more. The hardest part is learning to be content with what you already have

Yeah, the ironic thing is that if a gambler is content with what they already have they would never start gambling in the first place.

One of the main attractions in gambling is the fantasy that you could become rich by gambling, which is extremely rare, yet still many people continue to try it every day.

This means that most gamblers have their own reasons why they are involved in gambling, and one of the reasons that is very likely is the "chance of winning" which is actually nothing more than a "possibility" without the certainty of actually getting it, dissatisfaction with the financial situation in real life makes them make gambling a place to improve their financial situation by putting hope in a win, as you said that if they were satisfied with what they already had then they would not gamble and I have said one of the reasons that is quite possible above.

Of course, I can honestly conclude that as I said above the reason gamblers get involved is because of the "chance of winning", they misunderstand the name "chance" they think that it is something that is easy to come true, when in fact it is very difficult unless you are really lucky but still it will only happen once in a thousand tries, so instead of becoming a rich man but what happens is getting poorer.
784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever introduced an elder gambler to online betting? on: February 07, 2024, 07:37:20 PM
I was thinking about my past experience with my grandmother when I was still starting in crypto industry and was getting familiar with gambling yet. Since I knew she was a gambling enthusiast (loved slot machines), I tried introducing her to virtual betting, telling it was an accessible and easy method to gamble from home with comfort and easiness.

So I opened a slots website on the laptop and told her to click the touchpad over the roll button, indicated by the arrow on the screen, to start betting. She did it for a while and had some fun when winnings were hit. In the end, I asked her what she thought about the experience and if she would replace the habit of going to physical casino by the virtual one, but she replied that it was too complicated for her to play online, and that she likes the contact with a physical environment where there are physical machines and other people to talk, so she could leave the boredom of staying alone at home to see traffic and flux of people outside the doors.

As you can see, it wasn't only about gambling, but also about interacting with other people inside a real gambling environment, besides the technological experience not being so rewardable when compared to playing at solid, palpable physical machines.

And you, have you ever successfully introduced an elder person to virtual gambling?

The type of online gambling has the advantage that it makes it easier for everyone to access it or makes it easier for everyone who wants to gamble when they don't have much time to go to a physical casino because here you can gamble whenever and wherever you want, and if this scenario is experienced by the elderly then maybe I will look at the fitness which is where an elderly person as we know that they are not very fit which means not as fit as when they were young which means I think it is quite advisable for them to be better involved in online betting types such as slot machines because they can gamble without having to leave the house, but if the main reason is that they want to feel the atmosphere of the crowd like in a physical casino then maybe I think all the decisions are in their hands because we can't force them to get involved in online betting types although I think this is the best advice for someone who is elderly.

On the other hand I have never suggested or introduced gambling to the elderly because I always see in terms of the adverse effects that exist in gambling which is always a possibility for the elderly to end up gambling in the wrong way such as gambling to pursue victory which will actually make them down and suffer from stress due to the number of losses, so for me it is better to avoid suggesting them to get involved in gambling.
785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: February 07, 2024, 06:14:26 PM
The above mentioned "confidence and greeds" in gambling are all clamouring of gambling addict which are typically bad characters because it gives you false hopes and staying ignorant to the negative occurances along your gambling sides.

Trust and greed as you mentioned is something that is usually always the main trigger for gamblers to end up doing some out of control actions that they are actually unable to account for because of the level of trust, usually scenarios like this will occur when they manage to get a win which at that time they become too confident in themselves that by applying greed by putting the entire amount of previous winnings in the next session it will result in a much bigger win, I agree with the idea of "bigger winnings" because the amount they are betting is much bigger, but the problem is that they don't see that gambling is always about "probability" which in the end might not be what you expect.

So instead of getting something you expect but the opposite happens where you lose and lose all the winnings that you actually managed to get before even with a not too large amount. But this is gambling where someone always cannot be grateful for the amount he gets so greed becomes an alternative that they will choose to pursue something that basically has no certainty of success.
786  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This was my highest risk. on: February 07, 2024, 05:54:15 PM

I just want to share this with my fellow bettors.
Have you ever taken such a huge risk on gambling before?
Yesterday I experienced what I have never experienced before but I am very much happier because my risk wasn't in vain.

A friend of mine sold her bet to me 20k Nigerian naira and I bought it because there was a cash-out on the bet, and the cash out was 20k Nigerian naira.
Besides, the games are 21 in total and 19 out of the games have entered so the games was remaining just 2 and that was why I bought the bet with a whole 20k Nigerian naira.

This is the highest risk I have ever taken on gamble.  :)Why I called this the highest risk was because if the remaining 2 games lose I will be the loser and not my friend, so that risk was very terrible but I just have to take the risk because I already have in mind that you can not win if you do not risk. But to cut long story short, I win the bet, this was like sharing the money equally with my friend.
So have you ever taken such a risk on gambe before?

Congratulations! you're really in a very good luck here my friend by managing to get a winning streak like that, honestly on the other hand I can't imagine if in one of the last two games you lost then obviously I'm pretty sure that in a situation like that with that level of risk at least you will definitely feel disappointed or even emotionally overloaded, But I say again that you were really in good luck that day so that you could get through all the tension in that situation and finally end 21 bets with success, honestly I have never taken such a high risk because I really don't take gambling seriously. And besides that I hope you can really enjoy this victory by using the money from the win wisely, on the other hand what I am quite worried about is when your interest and curiosity increases due to getting a big win, and I hope you are at a good level of awareness in this situation so that you don't feel great because you got the win, we really have to go back to the initial understanding that you are really lucky at that time.
787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You will do in this situation? on: February 07, 2024, 05:34:21 PM
A lot have been told here already, but when speaking about gambling, I would suggest to keep advices and intentions to help someone in yourself. If persons needs something, he will ask for help without hesitation. Today people can google and find everything, people so used to searching in the internet, so it is hard to find someone who asks others for suggestion. Lately, nothing radically new were invented in gambling, and I guess everyone is already familiar with everything. So today, if someone approaches with intention to teach something or advice, people look on that person with cautious.

Some people always need advice as people may rush to gambling without googling first or making a small research before gambling.If you see anyone of them it is let's say a moral duty to just advice such persons by telling risks associated with gambling and especially to such persons to tell the odds that are totally against you when gambling slot machines or sport betting.I know we live in the Internet era yet some persons rush and do not care but soon they realize their mistake.

I believe that one of the things that causes someone to be too hasty to get involved in gambling without being based on proper research and understanding of the world of gambling is because they see "money" as the object of victory in gambling, such people completely ignore the aspect of risk that can never be separated when they are involved in this activity so of course in the end something that is not based on proper understanding will make them feel really disappointed at the end of the session when they lose, this is one of the typical irresponsible gambling.

So of course anyone is advised  to help people who are down or lost on the wrong path at least by giving them a little advice that really looks reasonable which of course they can understand, because on the other hand it is very difficult for them to reach awareness when they have already entered the wrong path, so this is what makes them end up with addiction along with always increasing the number of defeats over time, especially if they are basically involved in types of gambling such as slots which do have algorithms that are very difficult to solve so that losses will usually dominate more often.
788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: February 07, 2024, 05:14:12 PM
If he is used to gambling every day, he will feel that something is missing from his day when he cannot gamble on a certain day. And that can make him sad or disappointed or other negative feelings. He needed other activities that could take his mind off gambling.
He couldn't gamble every day. He also didn't know when he would be able to win so gambling every day could make him lose a lot of money.
It's the same as a big addict. Usually things like that have become their daily diet. The addict doesn't care about himself and even prefers to sit all day on the gambling bench, so it all depends on how much money he has to gamble every day, after all, only people have money. There are quite a few people who often gamble than entrepreneurs or established people, because their mindsets are very different so, in conclusion, people like that are mostly from the lower class, not from the upper or middle class.

It is true that it is a habit that someone who has entered the addiction phase has, there is nothing else they want but to gamble, sometimes there are times when they also don't think about winning or the intention is to gamble by not really wanting to win but with the habit of gambling every day then it's like you said that it has become their daily food in the sense that they can't miss the slightest time not to gamble so this makes it difficult for them to get rid of their habits.

I think for budget issues I would not care about the amount of money you put on gambling, because even though the amount is small, if you gamble every day then over time the amount of defeat will definitely increase. So what is more appropriate is, get rid of the habit of gambling every day, if you are already used to doing it then one solution is to divert your mind to other activities that are also quite fun but do not involve risk, or by adding a part-time job to increase your monthly income and after that you also need to reduce the amount of your budget, from the original for example 10% for each session then you can change it to 5%, by limiting the time of gambling then you can  eliminate the interest in your mind on gambling as well as you will not suffer too much from the amount of defeat. On the other hand, I agree with you that people who end up addicted to gambling are those who have a financially poor background and try to make gambling a place to earn which in the end makes them suffer a lot of problems, this is a different mindset from wealthy people who know and trust the process more.
789  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 07, 2024, 04:54:31 PM
I have a hanging out friend who is having trouble paying his house installments, he wanted to borrow money from me but I didn't give it to him because I didn't have the amount he was borrowing at that time, I advised him to borrow from another friend but their answer was still the same, finally, he was a little desperate and with the little money he had he put the money into the online slot application, unfortunately, instead of succeeding in doubling his money, he lost all his money because he lost in the online slot application

The valuable message that can be taken from my friend above is never take risks to gamble to pay off your debts, the pressure is very big, the chance is very small that you can pay off your debts, often you end up losing even more and losing your money. look for loans, sell your valuables or look for part-time work to pay off your debts, is a good way rather than playing the small money you have in gambling
We should not make gambling as a tool to get rich or become successful because most likely it won't happen unless you are lucky enough to hit something big on it. That is why it is highly recommended to gamble with just extra money so we won't end up losing our hard earned money and our savigs or investments.

Honestly I have never found or just heard rumors about gamblers who managed to get rich from their gambling activities, I really wouldn't believe it even if someone said it because if we look again at the facts about gambling it is really not possible for anyone to get rich from their gambling involvement, The reason is because after all gambling is nothing more than a game of chance where the casino only provides "chances or possibilities" for gamblers, meaning there is a chance for you to win and there is also a possibility for anyone to end up losing, one of these two results will be the answer to every session you do.

In addition, there is absolutely no certainty for anyone to win at the end of the session, and in fact it is more likely to lose, because it is difficult to get a lucky streak in gambling which is the reason why this activity cannot be used as a place to work or a place to earn, it is too impossible and too risky. Honestly, I would only believe that you can get rich in gambling if you are basically a bookie who owns your own casino. Therefore, don't even think about earning in gambling because the fact is that you will experience more disappointment at the end of the session.
790  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another health benefit of online gambling on: February 07, 2024, 04:35:23 PM
but it might be a little unpleasant for gamblers who usually gamble in physical casinos, because the vibe of online gambling is very lacking since they play alone in their room and they can't feel the real casino atmosphere, but if they are thinking about recovery then online casinos is their best place to gamble.
Online gamblers may play by themselves in their rooms, it's true, but I believe there are a variety of factors that combine to make for an interesting and immersive experience with a distinct ambiance. In my opinion, players can have an immersive gaming experience that closely mimics the atmosphere of a physical casino thanks to the significant advancements made by online gambling platforms in recreating the excitement and ambiance of a real casino through the use of realistic sound effects, high-quality graphics, and interactive features.
~snip~
 

but it is quite difficult to be able to imitate the vibe of a physical casino, the smell, the noise of people playing, the jokes with the dealer, and various other things. Things like this cannot be imitated by online gambling no matter how sophisticated the gambling platform is. and for this reason it is still difficult for people to move on from physical casinos, even though they are given easy access to online gambling platforms.

Of course, because online casinos also have their own advantages that distinguish them from physical casinos and the things you mentioned are something that is a significant difference between physical and online casinos, the point is that because the times are getting more modern and more sophisticated, some industries create something that is in accordance with what people need to make as an option for a balance, And the purpose of the establishment of online casinos is none other than this to reach more gamblers, especially those who don't really like physical casinos, such as those who are introverts or who don't like crowds, they can join and get involved in online casinos with the advantage of being able to engage in gambling whenever and wherever they want. So the bottom line is all of this is a choice, if indeed people want to feel the sensation of a lively atmosphere with crowds then obviously they can go to online casinos and as I said above if indeed they do not like the crowded atmosphere then obviously online casinos are the choice.
791  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Older men vs Younger boys in gambling, Which enjoys Gambling for fun the more? on: February 06, 2024, 07:54:31 PM
Really speaking, older men are the ones to enjoy gambling most than the youth. Since they (old men) have experienced and accomplished the majority of life's goals, they know how to follow gambling without putting too much pressure on themselves to win a bet before giving up or even betting more than they can afford to lose.
Therefore, since they are no longer responsible for caring for and supporting their family(because their kids have all grown), their old age should be a time to relax and have more fun while gambling. 

We are of the same mind that if we compare who among the young and old gamblers will make gambling a fun activity then I am sure that most people will mention that it is the old gamblers who are most likely to make gambling a place to find entertainment, the reason is because of course as you said that people who are old have gone through many phases in their lives in the sense that they are quite experienced in some things and also maybe most of them have succeeded in achieving their life goals. and another reason in my opinion is from the maturity factor where someone who is older they have a more mature mindset and can consider everything they see, so this allows them to have a good approach to gambling and not expect everything they see, And the other reason in my opinion is the maturity factor where someone who is older they have a more mature mindset and can consider everything they see, so this allows them to have a good approach to gambling and not expect to win because with a mature mindset they will be able to know that gambling is not the right place to make money, and with that obviously then most of the old gamblers will make gambling a place of fun by betting small amounts to complement and enjoy their retirement.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your state on mind if your son stole your money to gamble? on: February 06, 2024, 07:33:40 PM
It depends on his age and what type of a son he is, some child need scolding while some needs to be sat down and talk to, so it depends on which type of a father you are, as every parents have different ways of handling their children.

It depends on some other facts as well like where are you, how is your society, and many more. Gambling is a common thing in some societies where almost every adult gamble and they do not forbid their grown-up children to gamble. If you talk about my society, he did two offenses at the same time. Stealing is bad regardless of where are you from. But, some parents tolerate it when their kids gamble.

If you talk about my society, gambling, and stealing, both are forbidden and punishable offenses. Gambling is not allowed at all. Let's say I didn't tell my son anything about gambling, but if he gets caught gambling, he will be punished I won't be able to help him. so, it is my responsbility to guide him no matter how.
Environment influence people too well, young age are the ones who can be influenced by there environment and home, if the parents are not watchful of their child the child will one day keep them in a bad mood.
Parents makes sure to put eyes on your children,some parents doesn't because they don't care, ore they have money to take care of cases, but makeing sure your kids are disciplined is very importan, now a child has withdraw miney from his parents account to gamble, there's no proper discipline there.

Of course, the environment has a very big influence in changing human behavior and nature and when a minor child chooses the wrong association and environment, it is clear that in the end changes in behavior and nature in a negative direction are very likely to occur which in turn can have a bad impact on his family, as we know that it is not uncommon for people to commit several out-of-control actions such as stealing, robbing, judging others, committing violence and other crimes, all because of the very significant influence of the environment and association.

This is very likely to happen to a child when his parents do not give full attention and do not limit the activities that a child does, however it is the duty of parents to take care and guide their children to stay on the right path and give full attention along with limiting the activities of a child is one of the good actions to prevent them from entering the wrong association which can certainly make a child a criminal or a gambler.
793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling are mainly for rich and lucky mind. on: February 06, 2024, 07:13:19 PM
The point is in gambling if you are lucky then you are sure to win, no matter whether your background is rich or poor, still if you have money to bet then you will find one of the two answers at the end of the session, namely between winning or losing. It is actually very simple to explain this, no need to relate to many other things such as background, the point is rich or poor everyone has a chance in life to get lucky in any case and one of them is in gambling activities that can lead them to victory.

We must really understand first about what gambling really is, many people misunderstand or misunderstand gambling where most of the addicts always carry the assumption that gambling is a place to "earn" when it is NOT, gambling is nothing more than a game of probability that provides the opportunity to win and money as an object or prize when you are lucky and manage to get a win. Therefore, it is not uncommon to advise to be careful in gambling, because this is an activity that can stimulate your brain and mind so that in the end you act out of control because you are too focused on winning which basically does not have any certainty to be realized at the end of the session. Back to the original discussion that gambling is for everyone, rich or poor if you have money to bet then you can start gambling and everyone has their own luck but no one knows when they will get lucky and win.
794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: February 06, 2024, 06:25:41 PM
If you have a gambling budget that is very low to the amount you are receiving as salary, you can do the money the way you want. Taking just 5% from your weekly income is good. You can be greedy with it and lose it to gambling and not go more than your gambling budget. It will not affect you because you can afford to lose it. Gambling should not be done with the money that you can not afford to lose. But also for not to regret, it is good not to be greedy though. If you have won little amount of money for the day, stop gambling. If you are losing, stop gambling for you not to lose more. This may help you not to use money that is not in your gambling budget. But the most important thing is to not touch the money you do not have as gambling budget.

Exactly, having a healthy approach to gambling is something that most people always recommend, in any case and one of them in terms of putting a budget that is not too large, or means as you say by putting 5% of the total income from a weekly or monthly salary, However, financial management is one of the most important if you are involved in gambling because it is a risk-taking game while on the other hand to win you need luck which is basically unknown when it comes, so this is the reason why getting a win is much more difficult than losing and because of this we are more advised to put only a small amount so that if we lose we don't lose too much.

If you are involved in gambling or if you are one of the more active gamblers then obviously it is more advisable for you or anyone to try to be a responsible gambler by being able to accept whatever the outcome is at the end of the session and by betting small amounts then obviously I think you can be a responsible gambler, And also don't put any hopes on winning because the final result can never be known, putting hope and applying greed when the situation wins it will only make you regret it when in the end all previous wins are lost again just because you apply greed, however the results in gambling are always unpredictable and the point is you have to know when it's time to row and when to stop pulling over.
795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This was my highest risk. on: February 06, 2024, 06:05:36 PM
Is that really a risk? You bet 20k Nigerian naira, that's 16$. A one-hour salary in America and 1/4 of your weekly signature campaign earnings. Okay, that doesn't matter much but to be fair that's not a high risk. Financially you haven't risked much win or loss in terms of monetary value but the odds in your ticket are amazing. You have to be very lucky to catch 150 odd. By the way, I can't call it a risk but my biggest mistake was betting 0.1 USD on ticket with 1492 odds. You won't believe but I had 13 matches in that ticket, majority of them chosen blindly, followed my luck and this ticket won. I won 149 USD by betting 0.10 USD because odds were 1492. I didn't use cashout option, so you can call it the highest risk if we compare my ticket to your ticket.
Am surprised when you said he has not taken a risk. The money involved might not mean anything to you but to him it's something huge. There was no need of comparing the money in the two countries you mentioned. To him that money Worth something to him while to you it's nothing. $1 is a risk because he didn't steal the money.

With this comparison, I am afraid that people who bet with a value that other people think is small will end up trying to bet with an amount that is equal to other people or in the sense that it is quite large, where the amount is an amount that they are actually unable to account for in the end. Therefore, it is really not recommended to compare things, let alone compare someone's ability in betting, all gamblers have their own choices in terms of choosing and placing a budget amount, as you said, maybe for them it is an amount that doesn't exist. meaning but for other people it is very possible that the amount is quite a large amount. However and anyone is always advised to put the smallest amount because this is gambling where even if you have very good skills it will not be able to completely prevent you from the possibility of losing, and therefore I will support and defend people who place bets. smallest amount.
796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You will do in this situation? on: February 06, 2024, 04:57:01 PM
I also asked him if he still bets frequently on sports betting. He said he had bet on sports betting but could not win as big as before, but it was enough to win for him. He bet on a local betting site but he does not tell the site name. If I advise him to place a bet on a crypto sports betting site, I have to teach him about crypto. Until then, I did not recommend any crypto betting site because he was not ready to learn about a new thing. It will be a long road because there will be a lot of questions about crypto. We'll see Grin

sometimes you need to ignore other people and not really care about what they do because if at that time you offer crypto betting to him, maybe you will teach him about crypto, etc., which will take up your time and will make you more trouble. So it's better for you to just chat normally with them and don't need to get too involved in things related to their gambling. but if you don't have a problem with that, then just continue educating him about crypto betting, maybe he'll be interested in that.

It's a different story if you're basically willing to teach them about something that is the topic of discussion like the crypto betting that you're exemplifying, sometimes we don't need to be too open to others and also don't need to care too much about what other people say, after all we gamble with our own desires and abilities especially using our own hard-earned money, so don't listen too much to other people's criticism, but I think if indeed what they say or suggest leads to something better or changes that lead to goodness then I think there is nothing wrong with considering the advice and criticism of people who care about us. But it's all up to you, if you're not bothered by what  they say or what they want then go ahead, but if it's the other way around then obviously it's better not to be too open or not to respond  and care about what other people say about you.

The point of maintaining awareness of the real facts about gambling is that it will be able to make you first do a lot of consideration before finally making a decision, but this is usually the problem experienced by gamblers, where they cannot control their gambling activities because emotions dominate, however we are the ones who have to control gambling activities and not gambling that controls us, and one way is to have the right understanding of gambling along with maintaining awareness. We can see how the fate of people who have entered the addiction phase, it is because they cannot control themselves who end up gambling based on emotions and without any consideration before making decisions so that in the end they end up suffering a large amount of defeat which indirectly continues to make the situation worse indefinitely.
It all matters with the control on which it isnt really just that limited to gambling alone but also in other things on which we know that excessive dealing or involving doesnt always come up with positive outcome. Everything should really be that in control so that you wont really be finding yourself on that being on a potential problem on which it would really be just that right that you would really be needing to make out those adjustments on which it is really just that you would really be preferring on not to wreck up your life base up on your decisions specially on gambling dealing.
Gambling on every day? As long you do have the money that you can afford to lose and have the vacant time on doing so, then why not?

Right, basically management and boundaries in any case is very important and is something that should not be ignored because it leads to a good thing and you have said that something that is done in excess usually always ends up with disappointing results. As I said above, it is we who must control our gambling activities and not the gambling that controls us through the emotions that dominate when you are in the heat of losing. So planning, managing, controlling and following through with limits as much as possible should be implemented to strike a good balance because this is the only way you will be able to stay safe and avoid the unwanted possibilities of approaching gambling the wrong way.

Honestly, I don't have a problem if you want to gamble every day if you have a budget that you can be responsible for but the problem is that it is not easy to have money that is not used for other things in our daily lives, or the point is that you will not have cold cash every day to gamble, and anyway if you have the ability to do this then obviously in the end the amount you lose will definitely be large because it is too much.

-snip-

The valuable message that can be taken from my friend above is never take risks to gamble to pay off your debts, the pressure is very big, the chance is very small that you can pay off your debts, often you end up losing even more and losing your money. look for loans, sell your valuables or look for part-time work to pay off your debts, is a good way rather than playing the small money you have in gambling
I'm confused as to why there are people who think that one way to double their money is by gambling, because I think that's the act of frustrated people because people with a healthy mind understand that gambling is not a good way to double their money, even when we do business there are opportunities to lose money or have to wait until we can make a profit, especially in gambling, so there is no right way and quickly to double our money, everything needs a process because if there really is a right and fast way to double our money, including gambling, then there are no poor people because it can be done gambling because all financial problems can be solved by gambling.

True, I am also strange about such people, even though they have common sense that can be used to think and consider everything but there are still those who view gambling as a place to earn or even make it a full-time job, this should not be allowed and must be straightened out because this mindset is the starting point for many disasters that they never expected. On the other hand, I believe that the main reason is because they only see gambling from one side, namely the "chance of winning", they think that they will be able to get a big win when in fact it is nothing more than a chance which means it is still uncertain to become a reality. Some gamblers who end up addicted always start with this mindset where they focus too much on winning to the exclusion of losing. That's right, in the business world alone it is very possible for someone to experience a loss for some reason, let alone in gambling which has no certainty. Therefore this must be straightened out, gambling should be fun and not a medium for earning considering the level of risk that can never be separated, the logic is as you say if gambling can really produce then obviously there will be no more poor people in the world.

The worst risks of gambling are regarding how to handle anger after they are very emotional and cannot control themselves, taking out anger on innocent families, the highest cases of divorce in recent years due to gambling and every partner definitely does not accept that their husband is addicted to gambling and they ignore the priority needs for the cost of living for his family, the saddest case of divorce because his anger caused abuse of his wife just because of a small mistake. This is all due to gambling budget management which is not limited to gambling, so after they lose a lot of funds it will cause aggressive depression to persecute the family at home.
Cases of domestic violence certainly start from a lack of economic stability in the household and the main cause is not being able to manage the budget well, especially if the husband is addicted to gambling, the family's financial problems are definitely disrupted. Making the wife fed up and the husband unable to accept defeat and committing violence against his wife and a wife who does not accept it will sue her husband for divorce because of domestic violence. No wife wants her husband to experience a gambling addiction or any other type of addiction because what they worry about is that this could happen in their household.

It's not always about those who have below average finances, what I mean is that family violence is not always because of the weak economy in the family, I understand that this can also be a trigger for violence, and let's put it together when someone has low finances in the family but on the other hand they are also involved in gambling addiction which in the end makes the situation very concerning, On the other hand, it is clear that the family finances will definitely be disrupted and there will definitely be a lot of arguments that occur because one of them allocates some of the money for living needs to gambling activities which makes them end up losing money that is actually unnecessary if they are not involved in gambling.

Fighting over finances and the bad habits of one of these couples leads to violence and this scenario is a likely one for violence to occur. Another bad thing is as you said that it is very likely that one of them will seek a divorce which means gambling is very likely to destroy a relationship. This is why we have to be very careful when it comes to gambling, simply put if you can't afford to lose then obviously it's better not to gamble.

I often run out of funds due to gambling that is too blind in terms of placing $$ on every bet I make and ends up losing. I do multi-bets and single-bets, every time I win, sometimes I forget myself and use all my $$ on the next bet. This sometimes gives me big wins, but if I'm unlucky I can lose all my funds and this has happened many times.

I started to realize and change my habits. Now I use $$ from the profits from the previous bet to place the next bet and save my initial capital.

What do you think, is this good and can help me overcome losses that will occur so that $$ remains safe and can be used in future betting? Are there other unique ways that you can use to grow your money in gambling? feel free to comment. Thanks

Proper management of your gaming budget is the key to success, risk management will help you avoid losing your entire deposit. If you bet on all the money you have, then this is an all-in game and in this case you will definitely lose, there is no other option. But if you bet no more than 1-3% of your gaming deposit per bet, then you will have significantly more bets and you will never lose everything in one bet. After a certain time, you will be able to analyze your results and see whether you are able to increase your gaming deposit, or whether it is always decreasing.

In any case, especially in real life, budget management is really necessary and must be considered and this does not only apply to gambling involvement, but budget management is a very important thing that you must have if you are basically a fairly active gambler, because of course one of the reasons is because gambling always has no certainty to give you a win, the results at the end of the session are always unpredictable and therefore putting a small amount that you can afford to bet is always recommended as a prevention so that you do not suffer a significant amount of defeat.

Putting all the money you have for the all in method is really a dangerous mindset and choice because as I said above that there is no certainty whatsoever in gambling to be able to get a win, and the fear is when it turns out to lose and of course very few people can accept the fact when they are in a situation like this, most of them eventually get emotional and act out of control which of course will make them end up with more losses. On the other hand whether you are going to do double or single bets on the other hand you still have to bet a small amount or whatever you can basically account for, this way you can minimize emotions and things that are not wanted at the end of the session when you lose.
