This is how business should be and if there's really a cases that they drive out the winners then maybe they are a scam casino and doesn't want their gamblers to win so we should avoid that.
You clearly have no idea how sportsbooks function. Most sportsbooks are considered soft sportsbooks which implies that they don't like consistent winners and chase them away by limiting their bets.

Only few books are considered sharp like Pinnacle, Bookmaker etc which welcome winning punters and don't chase them away at all.

I don't know why some people will just out of their own personal assumption made a conclusion on what is not it, why are they thinking that sportbooks are being manipulated by the providers, if this had been that easy or possible to achieve then why are sone gamblers still found winning over the house, or maybe we should ask why many gamblers are still interested in going after this while gambling.
There's always that reason and its not something that you can removed on human beings.  Grin

Stay or deal up on the place on which you do seem comfortable, some might be having that notable difference in terms of handling out their bettors or customers
We do have tons of choices in speaking about platforms and its up to you which one you would really be deciding on where to play. Lists above given
about those sportsbook that currently existing, it might not be updated considering that there are new platforms as of this moment which is also
that considerable in speaking about reputation and legitimacy.
1082  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling Generally An Illicit Activity? on: November 10, 2023, 09:25:25 PM

Gambling is not illegal but because there are countries that prohibit it, that makes gambling illegal. But even if gambling is illegal in a country, it doesn't stop people from gambling because they think that gambling is a quick way to make money. Online casinos are not illegal if the country allows gambling and it is true that this depends on each country because that country is the one that permits gambling. If a country prohibits gambling, people should not violate the prohibition lest they be punished for gambling. There must be rules that regulate gambling, whether they legalize it or make gambling illegal.

Gambling is not the illegal in the many countries,because it generate more economy flow and also control the money flow in the country.The developed countries doesn’t worry about the legalisation of the gambling,because most of the gambler will have enough money for their survive and use the free money for the gambling.If the gambling site was prohibit by the government,nearly 60 percentage of the population will follow the rules blandly.So the government plays the huge role in the gambling movement in that country.But some people the rest 40 percentage doesn’t worry about the government rule on the gambling.
It would be considered to be illicit because it do becomes a tool for money laundering and other correlated transactions on which it would really be that resulting into these kind of illegal activities.
This is they the community would really be having that kind of impression without even trying out to realize that its been long time that fiat money had already been that something like this.
It is really just that there are people who are really that kind of conclusive approach basing up on their initial impressions towards gambling. They wont really be that making themselves
that be trying out to be open minded whether its been a sole reason or just basically on being a tool. We do know that things could make out involvement and ending up
on having that bad integrations on something which it isnt right in speaking on approach.
1083  Economy / Gambling / Re: what are the best crypto casinos! on: November 10, 2023, 09:05:51 PM
All of us have different perspective in life so we can not say that we are all the same feelings in one casino, here's a thing which you want to play in that casino cause you felt good and you already withdraw your winning amount. but not all the gamblers want that casino too.
In reality there are many trusted casino out there so we can choose where we can play all we need to do is to read the feedback of the players who already try on that casino .
You're actually right, one man's food maybe another man's poison, gambling comes with different tastes depending on the platform we are using,  we may choose to have a particular gambling experience when we are placing bet on a casino and discover another platform having different games and we may not have that same interests in that as the former one, gambling is what we should seek after being satisfied with what we are looking after irrespective of the gambling platforms, if we also have a trusted feedback, we can work on it as well.
I believe that a gambler would mostly look for a platform that can provide the best services like good customer service, user-friendly and good user interface, good original games, availability of games from all game providers, and most importantly, quick deposits and withdrawals, without any issues and interruptions because problems with finances can make someone irritated and one would want a seamless experience where they shouldn't face any sort of issues at all.

So, any platform, as long as it's providing all the things I've mentioned above, will be liked by a true gambler. There aren't a lot of gamblers who would get attracted by bonuses and promotions without looking at other and more important aspects, a platform with no trust and reputation but with good bonuses wouldn't attract an experienced gambler.
If you are just new into this gambling market or world then it would really be just that common sense that you would really be finding into those platforms which are known and reputable.
Although there are some who are really that lost of track and test out those new ones or non heard off until they would be experiencing some problems and making out those regrets in the end.
It isnt really just that taking up so much time and effort for you to be able to find out on which ones are the best and which one are not. There's a list given and its impossible that you
would be looking into other places on which you would really be that basically be sticking into something which is reputable since you've been thinking that you wont
really be having any problems yet everything that you do need is already there.
1084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dangerous chasing losses on: November 10, 2023, 08:55:48 PM
Many can't stop after experiencing another loss as a result of continuing to gamble, but that doesn't stop them from immediately quitting gambling. They still choose to deposit more money and some gamblers will increase the bet amount because, according to them, it will be a big win if they win. But again, they lost and the money ran out.
Yes, it's almost the same as what OP did, but as we can see that OP managed to recover his losses and it must be remembered that OP's success was only a small part, not everyone can do that and be lucky to recover their losses, it is very risky to do what he did. OP did, he talked about his success but it would be a different story if he talked about his failure, it would be an important lesson for the OP too and his fellow gamblers on this forum.

I'm sure everyone must have heard OP's story thinking that it could be done successfully but it's clearly very wrong and there's a high risk of increasing the bet amount just to return the loss, that's clearly not justified, I also always remind myself when playing has reached the budget and lost, I I will leave the game without having to catch up on the losses I experienced because I gamble not prioritizing money but pleasure.

Not everyone can duplicate what the outcome did OP experienced, and it's safe to say that most of the time, the outcome turned to the other side,  instead of recovering and enjoying with small winnings,  the gambler who chased their loses add the money they replenished to another amount that they've loss.

It's going to be that way since when you are trying to recover, there's already aggression that you feel inside you.  Which can lead you to bet big to recover quickly, but most likely you will lose again.
Aggression would really be there and it would really be just that so normal that on the time that you would really be losing up your money or entire bankroll on a particular session then this is where
these emotions would come out on which it would really be that normally be giving out that kind of idea that it isnt really that too far off on trying out to break even those losses on which means
that chances that you would really be making out such deposit would really be likely and it would continue until you have lose on everything on that particular session. People wont stop
not unless if  they do have that nothing left into their pocket or account. As long they do know or have in mind that they could still be able to play since they do still have
balance then they would really be doing it no matter what.
1085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - December 26 on: November 10, 2023, 12:12:29 PM

As for the long training time of Tapales which runs for more than 4 months and sparring high-level fighters in the very first month are very unusual. Normal fighters train between 2 to 3 months. They start light, go hardcore, and sparring is part of the final stages when the body is nearing its peak. Most fighters who overtrained in the past lost their fights which is why it is uncommon nowadays to have very long camps. But we'll see how this goes. I am somehow hoping for Tapales to show something big in this fight.

Tapales is pushing himself to train harder than his usual routine, and we can't blame him for it. He's going up against the best in the world in that division, and even though he's a champion himself, people see Inoue as more dominant. So, Tapales has to prove them wrong and earn the respect he deserves.

It's good to hear that Tapales is pushing himself very hard in training. That is the sign that he wanted to really show that he is the one that will give Inoue the lost. And we like that kind of mindset for a boxer and I think they all learn it from the great Manny Pacman Pacquiao. I mean you could have all the talent in the world, but if you don't put your ass off and train hard, you will end up for nothing.

Moreover, if Tapales were to win this fight, he would bring honor to the Philippines, and people might start thinking of him as the next Pacman. Just imagine, a pound-for-pound top fighter falling at the hands of a Filipino underdog champion. That would certainly grab major attention once the news gets out. But for that to happen, Tapales needs to ensure he scores a massive upset win here.

Definitely, I don't think that the Philippines has a reigning world champion except himself at this time. So he needs to continue and fight and should be retaining that belt at all cost as he doesn't want to earn the year without any Filipino champion. He needs to sacrifice more to continue the Filipino tradition and follow the path of Manny and other great champion before him.

even when tapales is in his prime years, he'd lose this fight. Inoue is just a different monster, tapales be lucky if he survives 12 rounds but most probably it's going to be Inoue by KO.

betting is still yet open but the odds will probably be Inoue 1.3 vs Tapales 3.4 you have to be a die-hard fan of Tapales to actually bank on him. he is a champ though and by any chance there will be an upset, it's a facepalm to Inoue fans.

Cant really still make out some conclusion yet on which we do know that there's always that a chance for an upset and that would really be definitely be giving that huge facepalm on Inoue's fans.
You are right that beating up the monster is really that hard and something a very tough challenge in Tapales career but he wont be called a champion for nothing.
They do make out preparations for this upcoming fight on which we could say that he's really that determined because he do knows on whats stake on this one.
3.4 odds? It isnt really that a  bad one but 1.3 for Inoue would be most likely be interesting to put up some all in bet.  Cheesy
1086  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top Halloween Online Casino Bonus or Promo on: November 10, 2023, 11:56:29 AM
I think that all casinos have some Halloween event. But in my preferred casinos the main events were only for deposit. And i didn`t deposit money on this event.
The same time i don`t like to spend time trying to catch a bonus and it is possible that i missed something. As i see it was possible to get free $100-$300 during the event.
There’s a lot of good casinos that offers a great promotion especially if there’s a holiday like this.
To name a few you can check Roobet and 500 casino as they have a lot of promotions and more events that encourage gamblers to play more. The next holiday is Christmas and I’m sure many sites will start campaigning their promotions so better to visit the best site and wait for it so you can maximize their bonuses.
I think that i have 2 ways to get bonuses. First way is to wait for some event and get greeting bonus and bonus for first deposit. In the second way i have to register right now and regularly gamble in new casino to increase my rating for getting bigger bonuses during event.
I`d prefer the first way but in such situation i have 2 problems - i need not to lose the start of the event and i will have wagering requirements, so i can`t change the casino for some time.
An attractive bonus for first deposit and attractive bonuses on various events are now offered by all casino sites.  So a gambler has to create an account on a new site to get the bonus for the first deposit.  But just using one site is enough to get bonuses for different events. Halloween is a religious festival and it is common for casino sites to offer bonuses during this time so it is very fun to take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy the bonus. So you can use your 2 ways. But before gambling turns into addiction, keep yourself under control
Only noobs would really be the ones whom do find attractive when it comes to these bonuses on which those knowledgeable or old time gamblers wouldnt really be seeing these bonuses to be that attractive considering that we arent that blind nor not be able to know about those terms and conditions that had been set. This is why it doesnt really matter if its holiday or whatever season or event it would be which still those bonuses doesnt really that looks good or something interesting not unless if i do see some free spins with having that less wagering requirement then i would might take this one but for those common or casual offers with those typical rollovers then it doesnt really shock me anymore. Just like on what i have said earlier that it is really just that good looking
for those noob gamblers but sooner or later they would really be able to realize on how shitty it is.
1087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling beginners must not joke with casino announcement on: November 10, 2023, 11:44:13 AM
Beginner gamblers really have to pay attention to how to find a trusted casino by looking in the right places. They can't just use a casino they got from a random review site because that doesn't guarantee they will provide an honest review. Many of these sites provide reviews because the casino has paid them, so there are still many people who fall into scam casinos. Scam casinos can easily fool beginner gamblers who are inexperienced because for them, it is still difficult to differentiate between scam casinos and trusted casinos, especially since they may not have found a trusted review site that only provides a list of trusted casinos too. Even if novice gamblers can find a trusted casino, if they don't take the time to read all the rules, dos and don'ts at that casino, they may still run into difficulties later. That is why they need attention to want to understand more about the casino.
They are newbies and beginners, they will not understand things until or unless they either experience them themselves or have someone around them who can guide them about the things that are right and wrong. If they don't have anyone around them for guidance and they are also not a part of a public forum like this where they could read such guides and posts, they will not have a choice but to choose a casino randomly from review websites or through a simple Google search and then it's their luck if that casino turns out to be a good one or not.

So, no matter how many times we say it and how many guides we post in every public forum, there will always be some newbies who won't be able to read them, and at the end of the day, they might become victims of the scam casinos that they join being clueless of their actual reality.
One of the most common behavior of a newbie on which they wont really be tending to heard of others suggestions or tips when it comes into something important. They would really be just letting their minds or ears not to hear up with other words on which they would really be following on what they do have.They would really be only making those realizations but it is already that too late or something unfortunate things had already happened.Also it would really be always important that you should really be that wary if there would be some sudden changes when it comes to terms and conditions on which you wouldnt really be putting up yourself into some potential trouble. You wont really be making yourself that too careless or simply just that not caring at all on what are the potential issues
that you might encounter.
1088  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: November 10, 2023, 10:27:16 AM
-snip
Therefore, however bad things that are hidden will later be found out by other people or families, because it is impossible to be safe forever, including gambling habit activities, even though it has been hidden for a long time, it will be seen from us. For example, those of us who always experience defeat must be annoyed with the defeat that is always obtained, and if we continue to lose we will be different, whether it's behavior or something like that, from here other people or family can guess that we are having problems. Inevitably we tell stories because it's impossible to keep it to ourselves, because basically everyone needs a chat buddy to ask for direction or something like that.

That's for sure, because I myself am not good with my family, so that's why I prefer friends instead of family Grin. Even though family gives encouragement to stop gambling it's not easy for a gambler, I think most gamblers are also like this, it's difficult to accept advice from anyone because they only focus on their gambling. It's useless for the family to give encouragement to stop if there is no awareness of the harmful effects of gambling on oneself, before going to family or friends and others, of course there must be self-awareness.
If that the case, the conclusion is that everything is in your own hands to determine what best for you, but my advice would be better if you openly tell about your gambling activities to your family, at least your younger siblings who you can trust and hide your gambling activities from your friends maybe now your friend is the best person for you but remember mate, friends will not always be good just because of a problem and your activities will be spread by your own friends and that is very scary and a worse experience is that a friend is hostile to his own friend just because get winnings from gambling and borrow money but are not lent after that, they become hostile and spread their gambling activities.

and this is just a suggestion, you dont need to use it and if your method is the best, its better to ignore my advice.

yes it is, because everyone has their own choices in determining something related to us, because we ourselves will also run everything in the future. The same is true in gambling, many decisions must be made properly because it will determine the future, not just making any decision, because behind the decisions they make there must be strong reasons behind it. therefore what they decide we cannot argue with it let alone change it if behind the decisions they choose there are strong reasons behind it.
I really appreciate your suggestion, and I might try it later, thanks for the suggestion.
So are you open with your own family about gambling?

However, what you said is the same as what I said in another thread yesterday, not much different. But it's true, sometimes because of money problems can forget about someone or friends and even family like you said, because it's sensitive.
Choice freedom is very important, and when it comes to online gambling, this freedom is used with every bet and play. Within the world of gambling, choices are not made in a vacuum; they are the result of a complex mix of personal judgement, risk assessment, and often very strong emotions. People who make these decisions are planning ahead, trying to guess what will happen and ensure they have power over the future of their stakes. Gambling is a serious game not for amateurs. Talking about gambling with my family means being honest. Like the saying goes, "laying all your cards on the table." Making a place where choices can be talked about clearly and without judgement is important, especially ones with big stakes like gambling

Your thoughts about how money affects relationships are very smart. Actually, money can make it hard to make decisions, weaken ties, and make rifts where none existed. Being careful, thoughtful, and acutely aware of how it might affect personal relationships is important when dealing with this sensitive problem
I dont really like that kind of feeling on which i do really keep on hiding on something or looks like that i have been tied up into my neck on which i dont really like on hiding and if ever i do have that kind of interest or habit on doing gambling then i wont really be shy on showing it. Who you people would really be that tending to judge on what im doing?
I dont really like on feeling being controlled and since its my money then they dont have the rights on what i should gonna do with my money. I would definitely be playing without any
hesitation and minding on what other people would be saying as long i would really be happy with my money then i would definitely do it.
As for my wife then she would eventually be able to understand if i do make out some explanation in regarding with my gambling habit.

It's so annoying when one is left helpless in using a casino when the contact system aren't giving the necessary attention to guide through.

It is mostly because agencies which are supposed to help people with problems like alcoholism, drug abuse, suicide ideation and gambling addiction are commonly unfunded, since most of them are non-profit organizations.

How can the agencies regulate gambling, this is beyond their power or reach, they may try to but it's not an easy thing to make regulations in this kind of situations, the agencies cannot be responsible for the way we gamble, wether to our own advantage or not they don't care, they only work to apprehend those found abusing or violating the ethics of gambling by getting engaged in any of the above mentioned characters.
Gambling addiction is something that cant really be that something that would be resolved out. Professional services about gambling addiction is something that we do know that they do exist
and there are indeed gamblers who are making use of those services or paying up just to make themselves getting out of addiction but actually there's no other way or method
that would help us out on able to quit up gambling but rather we would really be that have that will on stopping on point. Its a matter of discipline and control
when it comes to this manner.

If there are some services which do offer free service for these gambling addicts then this is something which is really that commendable.
We do know that giving out some guides or counseling does really consume up time and resource and effort on which giving out
or having it for free is something that good to look at somehow.

~snip~
safest thing is just to plan from home to bring enough money to gamble and keep in mind to appreciate money, no matter how small. indeed gambling addicts will not think about this no matter how much money they bring to gamble but as a regular gambler it is better to always remember how gambling works just to have fun so you don't need to bring too much money to gambling and don't need to follow other friends gambling styles. .

Any addict will not value the money they need to pay for their craving.

The same happens with alcohol. It doesn't matter how much they are paying, an alcoholic will continue buying more and more bottles until they are broke.

Similar to a gambling addict, they will keep betting until they are broke.
Savings, emergency funds, investment funds.. All of those things would be neglected and would really be that forgotten on the time that they've been doing gambling.
We do know that its not something that we could really be able to think up on the time that we are gambling because our intent and hopes are really to make that huge
income or profit with it. As long you do have that kind of intent and impressions or views towards gambling then there's no way that  you could really be able to make
yourself that be stopping anytime soon. You would completely stop on the time that you would really be experiencing huge loss or doesnt have more money to proceed further.

What would you do if one day you won the lottery? What are you planning to buy and who do you want to include in your success?
First, I will stop gambling. Second, I will invest on Bitcoin, silver and gold coins and real estate. Third, build my dream house, buy a car, and my hobbies like guns. I prioritize needs before buying my wants. I also want to include my family, relatives and friends in my success.
Honestly if I win so much in the lottery I won't waste my gambling because if I gamble I will lose everything. It would be better to invest in bitcoins for the future along with meeting your own needs. There is no fear of losing here, the amount won in the lottery will double if you invest it for long term digital tokens like bitcoin can provide you with high levels of profitability. Real estate and gold will be impacted if the country's economy suffers bitcoin has no such implications for being decentralized.
This is a nice decision if you take this step if the same thing happens to you. Normally gambling is very risky and we need to understand how to bet and how to do things in a way that will profit us. There are some profits we needed to use and build other businesses so that we can grow and make more profits. Gambling is risky but we can do it in a way that would help us and achieve what we want and the kind of results that we want to be seeing. There are ways we can utilize to earn more profits for ourselves without stress.
When you do win on lottery and its your first time on getting a hand of a huge money then those kind of financial plans would really be something that would be out of your mind and thats for sure.
Why? We are just humans and we do have those kind of wishes and likes that we do want to buy on which it would really be that normal that you would be having that kind of reaction
on which you would really be prioritizing first on trying out to buy on the things that you do like until you would realize that you have nothing left with  those lottery winnings that you do have.
People would usually be ending up on having that kind of learning is on the time that they dont already have the money to spend on but well its already too late.

There's really no change. Nothing.
I am still playing the same amount not less not more. The change is in how much Bitcoin I input at every deal. Let's say I am using 200 satoshis for every round in casino games, now I am just using 100 satoshis because of the higher value of Bitcoin today. But when it comes to the amount of gambling hours, I didn't change anything, I am just more careful because I really want to win so that I can withdraw it if the planned amount of withdrawal is reached.

The same thing with my sports betting. I divided the amount that I was betting in 2 because I didn't want to get rekt easily as my main purpose was just to add more fun and be more entertained while watching the game.
The only things change is that on the fees involved on which we know that it is already that high and this is something that would hinder you on making some transactions but in overall
it is really just the same specially if you are really just making use of your Bitcoin which you would be always pertaining into its USD value. Yes, the amount of bitcoin would really be that less if the price is high and more if its low then it would really be just that according or depending on you on which one you would really be sighting whether you would really be applying some investment
approach or would really be just basically be spending those coins totally and dont care at all.

Recently one of my friends told me about some gambing / gaming sites  or apps like Orion Stars, Milky Way, Fire Kirin, Gamevault, Riversweeps,   Ultra panda and few others. 
He told that these are very popular games but i told that i am not aware of these sites. I first thought that they could be gaming sites but later i find out they have gambling games and are in fact casino.

A few of the sites / App links are http://web.pandamaster.vip/game/pandamaster/ , http://web.orionstars.vip/play/orionstars/

Has anyone known and played at these sites? Do let me how was their experience and what sort of games are there ?
Are they pure gambling sites or a mixture of gambling and gaming sites ? Although you need coins to play at these sites and you can redeem the winning coins into fiat money.

Im not aware nor having the experience with those sites mentioned but obviously these are really that games but people wouldnt really be that a fan on going into those places
which arent that known or popular. Of course we would really be sticking into something which we know that we could trust on, or simply the community is really having that kind of
positive approach towards it. Most of gambling platforms now do have that kind of casino games + sports betting kind of feature or option on which a certain
gambler could really just simply choose up which among the two you would really be preferring on playing.

Obviously with the rate of new casinos opening up and announcing their start up here, you would be convinced that it is more lucrative than you will be losing. Despite those winning big, the casino still profit because most likely before you win big you must have played and lost severally and only God knows how much. Therefore, winning big for a gambler might be losing big by another gambler and whichever way you look at it the casino is still in profit. Like even when a casino is hacked and a huge sum is stolen they are still in business like what happened to Stake.

So whatever way we want to look at the expense of running casinos including payment of staff, it will still be profitable to own a casino with the rate of new casinos coming up at least on the platform.
The gambling industry have witnessed a lot of inflow of new casinos popping up at some point and it may make it look as if the business is the most lucrative at this point but not knowing that,  running a casino has it many under laying negative impact that if the owner is not careful it can lead him to high loses and operational glitches that could result into heavy loses for the casino.

So to avoid that,  one needs to always have a long-term experience before considering ever venturing into the business,  so to say casino operations are not as easy as many take it to be.
Number of casinos and the current newly launched ones would really be telling you that this is a business which it would really be that a profitable one but of course running one wont really be automatically put you up into the situation that considered to be that successful knowing that there's no such thing about assurance in any business no matter how good or profitable it would be.
You should always consider about the other factors on which it would really be affecting your success rate. Come in mind that competition gets high and there's no way  that you could
really be able to take advantage or go ahead against with those old and reputable ones. Getting your first costumer would really be the toughest thing of all.
If you wont really be making yourself that mindful about it then for sure it would really be that so hard to succeed into this kind of market.

I think stability and personal finance share self-control principles. Not only curbing greed, but strategic planning and measured risks. I support financial literacy education to help people make smart choices. This is practical and vital to our life.
No doubt about that. People who lack financial literacy tend to be much more vulnerable to becoming gambling addicts and recklessly wasting money on it without knowing the fact that they are not going to get anything out of it at the end of the day because casinos are businesses and aren't places for gamblers to earn money from. They don't understand that they are supposed to spend just a small amount, or whatever they can afford to lose, in a casino only to enjoy the time they're spending in it and that's it.

People who are financially literate in their lives in general will have a much better view of gambling in their mind because they are clear about how they need to manage their finances and they know they can't spend more than they can afford to lose in gambling or anything that requires finances.
If you are that someone who arent really that making use of your own common sense or not really be able to find out on whats good and whats bad then for sure you would really be that ending up on getting addicted. If you dont value your future and possible consequences that might happen ahead then you wont really be caring on the actions that you are currently making and this is where
mistakes do really make such impact into your life. Realization would always come at the end and it would really be that always recommendable that you should really know on
making decisions or else you would really be finding yourself in great or huge trouble. Always make it sure that you are still in control on the situation.

Chasing of losses has been a major problem I think gamblers are facing because most of the addiction came as a result of chasing of losses to recover all they have lost, but in the process of doing so, they keep losing more and more as they continue to chase their losses.  Watching influencers play, gamble, and win is not the major point, though, because that is not convincing for one to rush to start gambling because they saw an advertisement of an influencer playing and winning. I see that as not convincing because it is a fake advertisement, so in that case, it might be a fake win to entice gamblers to playing with them and when they do, they start to tell stories and lots more.

To be honest, I'm a little confused about the parameters of the problem of addiction and chasing losses. I really understand what you said. However, it does not have to be specific that someone who is carried away by his emotions is driven to chase previous losses in his gambling session to be claimed as an addict. Actually, for me this is not a problem for everyone, I mean globally. however, it is a problem for us individually.
But once again, I really understand what you are saying. and I agree with that, it's just that we have a slight difference in point of view. Usually, addicts don't focus on how they chase losses. however, more precisely how they can gamble even as far as they are able to play. regarding winning or losing, is another matter.  We could say that initially they were chasing losses which ended in addiction. unfortunately, not everything has to be like that.

As for influencers, we can discuss it from a different angle. but as you said, most influencers are more concerned with promoting by the way they play. Yes, that's what you mean. and I think it's actually simple, if we are not entertained by influencer or streamer broadcasts, just ignore them. that's better than us bothering to discuss them.

Truly, gamblers to some point after being addicted through chasing of loses begins to see their addiction as a normal and regular activity which does not get them bothered because already they are used to it and it is already their way of lifestyle but I think that does not stop categorising them to be free of addiction but the only difference is that their perspective of chasing loses after games is either not that way they used to be or they just see it as a regular occurrence or incidence and are not bothered anymore about it.

Influencers are promoters who are just after their pockets and do not even get to see the thin line of what they are promoting. All they are after is to trick their followers or fan base into a product they do not care about the outcome of it. Sometimes they do fake advertising leading their fan base astray and this has resulted to many losses without any remedy.
On the time that you do find yourself that impulsive then you would really be likely on losing up  control and if you do have the funds on still available then you would really be spending all of those balances without a doubt and would be making out that kind of regret thinking when its over.  Tongue Chasing losses is never been good because you are on the verge of desperation on this kind of moment on which the only thing that you do have in mind is on how you would really be able to make yourself that able to recover those losses on which it would really be that so normal that you would be
having those kind of thinking on playing further just to make that kind of recovery on which it is really that something that you must really be that stopping to make things not
worst or else then you would suffer even more losses if you dont stop.

-snip-

But still, there are a great many people who consider some figures and numbers lucky for themselves.  
And they play the lottery in their own way.

I would like to know what lucky numbers members in this forum have, for lotteries but also other games (for example, 3.33x in crash, or whatever).

And have you got any lucky charms? maybe a woman (I recently saw Sin City 2 and the lucky charm was a woman in colour in a film that is in black and white) or special trainers or underwear like some football players? Grin

Please share.
I remember that there is One Guy that I come to talk back in the day that  he is gathering luck and wins in gambling (any game that he played without that number combination) about a Pregnant woman , each time he had with a woman who has child in their womb? he keeps being lucky that's why sometimes he even renting them to be with him in casinos or in local gambling houses(i don't know if even in online gambling he do this because we aren't involved in online gambling then) I find it weird but yes I managed to witnessed that once in a Mourn that he  brings His pregnant cousin and yes he dominates the poker table and beat everyone all night.
Totally just that coincidence i should say but if it turns out that he had been lucky for most of his plays because of bringing up some pregnant women then we would really be having those second thoughts that it might be true or really that effective but if we do speak about being lucky then we do know that this is something that cant be influenced or would really be altered.
If they do have that kind of belief and still continuing on doing so then just let them be, its their money to use and its not ours and if they would be having that kind of belief then
there's nothing we can do about it. If it turns out that he's profitable on this method then he would definitely be doing it no doubt.

The entertaining part will be replace of aggresion to win back the losing amount of money that they use, if the person continue to look for a way to chase the money they already lose it will affect their emotional balance, meaning that it will reflect with how they will think about gambling and even they are trying to keep it as secret when chasing loses come out in their minds they will use additional money that not allocated to gambling, then lose it as well, emotional stress and more on focusing into gambling that may lead into addictions.
And keeping their gambling activities a secret can cause more problems to arise because they can exceed their limits and no one knows how much money they have spent gambling. This is very risky because someone could deposit more money to gamble because they think they want to win more but they don't realize that it will only cost them more money. But if he can have good self-control, he can hide his gambling activities and will not get into any trouble, although that does not guarantee that he will not exceed his limits because he gambles in secret. We will never know when we will lose self-control or how long we can control ourselves because in gambling, we can get bigger temptations than before, so we must always be alert and stop gambling immediately if we have had enough of gambling.
well. you have a point, maybe being a lowkey just to protect a gamblers  from some evil eyes that may surrounds them, we all know that some people doesn't agree and support you once they know that you're into gambling and There's a traditional belief that once they know what you're doing, they can ruin it. In a gamblers vocabulary, Luck is very important that's why sometimes they tend to hide what they are doing even in their family members just to avoid losing in a game. Having a self control and limitations is a must and if gambler feels that they are turning being addicted to it, maybe that's the time that you can tell it to them.
Very common impression of someone and dont matter on which community you are involved or living with on which there would really be that always having that negative approach or feeling
about gambling and to those people who are really that getting involved with it would be automatically considered out to be bad person without even trying to look about on whats the actual
reason for a certain person to involved or play gambling. We do know that it is really just that for fun but eventually people do mess up with this thing on the time that they are really
that already making bad decisions through it. We cant really just that make ourselves not to avoid on trying to make things to be kept on secret just because of that
unjustifiable kind of treatment.

Well, when we focus on doing other types of things in the game, such as having fun and knowing how to take care of our money, because only things change, we shouldn't do much, because we know that things are focused on doing the best and never deducting, so We have to follow certain patterns that we ourselves sometimes set, and one of those is sometimes not stopping when we should stop to prevent our money from disappearing and us being left without capital, that is one of the things that we have to do. to do with autocontrol and a series of fundamentals that we as people who play must consider, that is why the issue of risk management is also good, for this reason we must always take care of ourselves to be able to have a better way of doing things with money, whenever we are in contact with something like money, we cannot take care of it, we cannot neglect ourselves to do things better, so in this order of ideas we have to act in a better way, it is money, and it is obvious what I mean, you have to take care of yourself.

The issue of addiction is something very delicate, I have already said it in this and other stories, what I think is that there are many more cases of addiction, and this must be attacked quickly because we are always focused on doing better or better. the best to be able to help and give the best contributions to the people who are suffering from it , because only those who are suffering from it are the ones who know how they feel, and that must be a very negative effect on their lives, but I tell you, that Everything is possible in life , and I know that there are many ways to attack the problem, it is not by leaving it at once, although if it is possible it would be the best, but for those who cannot, I have always recommended that they play in the casino but for less time. , and that you Practice a lot of sports so that you focus only on that and get tired so that you don't have time to regret or feel like playing in the casino.


Having fun should really be your main priority in speaking about gambling and cashing out or keep playing would really be entirely be depending on you since not all would really be that
having on the same mindset when it comes to dealing with gambling.If you are really that someone whose really that impulsive when it comes on making money with gambling
then for sure you would really be keeping on playing until you would be busting it all. We do know that once you do have still that balance you would really be pursuing on playing even more.
Cashing out just because you've seen that an opportunity for it to be a total loss, then it would come up or basing up into your own analysis.
Dealing up with sports betting does have several things which needs to be considered.
