You are lucky to get a referral bonus so you can withdraw your weekly commission. Only some people can get commission bonuses through referral links because the level of difficulty they face means that only a few people succeed in getting referrals. Many fail and don't want to continue trying because they feel they are not suitable to use the referral link to get the commission bonus. They may need to look for other ways that might help them get new people who want to join via their referral link. And of course, it takes time before they can get success from referral links so they have to keep trying one method at a time.

Referral may seem an easy money for some, but it isn't. It requires willingness and determination to accumulate certain amount before you can successfully withdraw. Most referrals will generate a commission the moment you use their link or their code. The referred person will benefit and the referring will get something too. So it's a win-win situation. But you must have a wide reach of audience and not just a wide one, but an audience that is interested also in gambling so that they could sign up using your referral. It takes time to hit the target amount of commission so patience is really essential. Daily posting of encouragement in signing up will definitely help too.

It is very difficult to earn large amount of money through referral bonus because through referral only some percentage is earned not big amount and if one wants to get large amount of money bonus through referral then he has to have many referrals which is very difficult to manage. So you can't call it an easy way to earn money for anyone. However, for some influencers it may be easier than others. But I think it's really just a waste of time, if one uses this time for skill building it will be very useful for him and it will brighten his future.

If you do have a huge network then it would really be that an advantage but if you have none then expect that this wont really be that something be easy
it is really just that good for those people who do have large networks on which they could really be having that kind of advantage but still not really that an assurance that you would really be
able to get those gamblers who do sign up under your link. So it would really be still varying whether you have been able to get those right people or simply those
who do gamble and to those who are not. It would be always mattering on quality over quantity because numbers would be useless if those people wont really be a gambler.

But the message I was trying to convey here is that the professionals as they call themselves are not immune from going broke. More importantly, they could not stay rich with their "professional" activity and instead had to resort to a different business model, namely some affiliate, marketing, influencer type of business and not the activity itself. The bad part about it is that their job is to promote that activity AS IF it would make them rich in order to get as many people as possible onto the platforms as paying customers. I am sure you understand my point, don't you? And this is why it is so important to make up one's mind before deciding to become a "pro" and earn money with gambling.

There is no doubt that there are many professional gamblers that would not have been able to keep themselves afloat without that additional income, and even some of the best players are not immune to this, so this should tell us how difficult it is to achieve that goal, however it is not surprising, as in the case of poker we know it is a game of skill, and with the increase on its popularity the level of skill of the payers has also increased, making more difficult for professional gamblers to profit from it as now everyone is playing at a higher level and they cannot take advantage of weak players anymore.

Professional players probably don't have greed, but they need to think about the risk of completely losing their bankroll because there are fewer and fewer amateurs. This is a risk that needs to be kept in mind. Because of this, they are forced to fight with each other and earn money through rakeback. Eventually some of them will hit a downswing. To be honest, I haven’t played poker for a long time and I don’t understand why it exists, even though I used to like this game.

I dont think so on which greed is something that been always part of us on which there's no way that we could really be able to avoid such behavior or those kind of impulsive approach
specially when we are seeing some big money or stake then it is really just that normal for a human being to have that kind of reaction because if there's not then for sure it would really be
not that possible for us to have that kind of cold emotion specially when we do gamble. There's always that kind of feeling and emotion that comes out. In regarding on the situation
whether you should really be proceeding or not if you do see those opportunities then its up to your own decision since not all would really be sharing up with the same idea
since not all would really be risk takers and just really simply securing out those wins as much as possible.

Does any of feel behavioral change in you based on the win/loss in gambling. Myself had experienced it, and personally I used to be happy and I used to be polite with my family members and kid whenever I am on profit. On the day of losing it changes exactly in the opposite way, even for simple things I get much anger. Particularly while giving food to kid patience is must. On winning days I let him take his own time and eat. On the losing days I used to shout at him. I'm addicted, and I want fellow gamblers to make a self analysis at regular interval and be on the safer side.

To be honest, for me personally, when I lose or win at gambling there is no change in my behavior, because I gamble only for entertainment and don't use emotions, so when I lose I don't continue gambling and it's better to leave. So that I don't get carried away easily and don't feel angry with my family, especially my wife and children, when I lose at gambling.

It is true that many people who lose or win at gambling will definitely experience changes in their behavior, especially if they lose at gambling, they will definitely become angry with anyone, especially their children and wife at home. All of this will definitely happen when someone is truly addicted to gambling.

Really? Dont you have any reactions like raising your eyebrows or banging up the table on the time that you do have a loss? specially consecutive ones? I do hard to believe
on such claim considering that even professionals or veteran ones on this gambling field would really be having that kind of reaction or impulse on the time that we are losing.
no one really likes on losing money on which it is really just that normal to have those kind of reactions but on a controlled manner. This is the difference of to those people who are
really that experienced and to those who are really just new. Being impulsive is really that common and this is why self control would really be something
relevant.

It happens if we have a good enough job and a guaranteed monthly income to do that but for those who are on the average line with a monthly income from the salary of the work done actually I think this is still lacking and it happens for myself.
In my country the average salary received is around $200-$300 per month which means that if we spend 1 percent of our monthly income indirectly it means that one month we only have to spend $2-$3 which is not really enough.
Although that is a good guideline so that we dont get too carried away in gambling but i still do it my way where i do it with a slightly larger nominal where in a month i might be able to be in the range of $15-$20 which means that it is 10 percent of the income that i get. Although this is considered too much for some people but im comfortable with this and it also doesnt interfere with the quality of the economy that i have so i dont have a problem with the amount that i spend.

You cant really be able to play with those small amounts on which you would really be seeing to be for it to be non relevant. We do know that it isnt something that could really be that make
us contented considering that not all people do really be earning on the same level as other could have. If you are earning $200 in a month then 1% of that would really be just that $2.
Then talking about realistically then even sending out those funds would already cost you more that on the amount that you are risking on which means that there's no really sense on doing so.
As long you do really know on how to handle up yourself when it comes to capital or bankroll handling then you should really be just that fine.

Have you wrapped up every session you mean you allocate specific hours on your session and to hit the hour where you should log off you made a wrap-up of your session even though you still have a huge bankroll like you spend 30 minutes wrapping up your bets.
I usually spend 20 minutes going down to my excitement level so when I log out I feel more relaxed

How about you do you wrap up your sessions and how many minutes or hours and do you think it's ok to do a wrap-up?

There's no specific time i should say or with the duration on the time i do make out those kind of wrap ups or simply having those break time. As long i dont make myself get tired
and dont be able to bust up my entire balance or something that i dont really have anything to be doing something then duration would really be much longer.
So far i dont mind much about the breaking up as long i do have the money. You should really have that kind of control because on the time that you do find yourself having
a fatigue then this is where issues do came from. So better you should really know on when to stop and have some break or wrap up same as you said.

The end of the month every year is what everybody is waiting for throughout the year, because this is the time you get your Christmas bonus and other bonuses like 13th month pay from other countries, because of the huge money coming in this holiday.

Are you spending more or less on casinos this holiday season?

Why add more? this is the only time of the year that you have additional funds why not enjoy playing more time with more funds if you get lucky you're holiday season will be merrier and prosperous.

Why spend less? This is the time of the year that there's a lot of spending and you have to buy a lot of gifts for your loved ones so I don't want to spend more on gambling I don't want to face this holiday losing money.

Tell us your opinion.

Doesnt matter if its holiday or not, when it comes to spending then it would really be just the same because i would really be not spending that much. How much more on a holiday season?
on which this is the most important day or season of the year on which you would really be buying some presents into your loved ones on which i would rather be giving out that kind of
priority rather than on putting myself on my own leisure on which it isnt really something that would be an interesting thing for me. I would really be that happy if i do give out
some present into my loved ones or into my family and friends. I would definitely be skipping out on playing and spending tons on leisure but rather would be spending up
on buying some presents yet this time do only happen once in a year.

Hello! I'd like to pose a question to my fellow gamblers here. Since the topic of sports betting has been gaining attention recently, allow me to ask:

So, the question is... Which are you better at: selecting the right bet or managing your bankroll?

And, how has it been going so far? Are you profitable or not, and why?

I could say that both things are really just that connected into each other on which you wont really be able to make your bets to be right if you wont really be able to manage your bankroll well
on which means that whenever on the time that you do reach out into a point on which you are really that making some good bets then we can assume that you are already that in the moment
that you do already know on how to manage your bankroll on which i could say that it is really just hat right or something that would intertwined or something that comes together.
This is why it would be better that you should really be able to have a good grasps on both things so that you would really be able to make yourself that having a good run
when it comes to sports betting and at the same time you are lessening the risks on getting wrecked.

Jumping from one casino to another are some the causes of greate lost in casino gambling games. Because when you have mastered there previous casino you have been playing with and suddenly probably because of new features or promotional bonuses and you left the casino to a new one which you have not gotten any idea and started staking. And before you know they have lost everything to the new site. And that is why it is good to stick to a casino that you have mastered so that you would not lose like that again and even if you lose it because the day luck was not with you. Though luck is for all casinos but when you have understand the casino don't leave it because it will cause a great damage for you.

That os it and I have also experience those loses also from jumping on a newly promoted casino, this was when I was still new in gambling and didn't know what it meant to master a game on a particular casino, indeed I list a lot before I realize that I was making a big mistake and redirected myself back to stake and one or two other casinos whom u am already familiar with since some times now.

So for sure, I am not looking for a replacement for any of those casinos, since I am satisfied with the services they render and also at Peach since they have a good reputation in the market.

Not really that bad if you do make yourself testing out some new platforms on which if you do seek for some new experience then it wont really be that bad.
Of course you would really be that liking to find some good platforms and having those interesting games on which you do really love on wanting to get involved into.
Its neither you would really be that get contented or not on the new site that you are dealing off with. Also, we should be mindful that not all new sites would really be that legit
and this is why other people including me would really be just simply waiting for other peoples feedbacks and advises before making some new deposit into sites.
So its a personal choice whether you would be sticking or playing on something new.

Have you noticed, that some casinos are very conservative about withdrawal cost of Bitcoin? Even though Bitcoin transaction fees are still expensive, or we could say higher than they were week or months ago, not some casinos have changed their withdrawal policy.

For example I want to deposit 0.001 BTC, that is around $44. Today, on December 10, using ledger live, it would cost me $59. $44 + 242sat/byte fee. All setting as app offers me. That is "slow" transaction. While if I would withdraw 0.001 BTC from casino, they would charge me with 0.000075 BTC for a slow withdrawal that might last for 24h. Casinos still use their old withdrawal fees.

Casinos have a lot of leverage to deal with the fees, and its good that they are sticking with their withdrawal policy. The big concern here is when you deposit BTC the fees are high and that’s why I started to used alternative coins just to gamble with small amount. We know the fees are getting high if there’s a huge traffic and that is what happening right now, you should look for other options instead of dealing with a higher fees.

Casinos wont really be bothered about if the fees become that high because most of them are dynamic and not really having that free fees for those people who do make withdrawal this is why
this thing wont really be an issue.
Its true that on the time that bitcoin network does have that high fee then it would really be just that normal that you would really be making use of those coins which does have
less or cheap fees but if you are some sort of whale gambler then these few bucks wont really be a bothersome thing for you.
We know that it isnt really that too often for this market to have that high fees but if you would really be that mindful about those spendings then its your choice
but most gamblers would really be that mindful about fees and this is why they would really be making use of coins on which it does have cheaper fees.
We know that most gambling sites does have multiple options for the coins that they are accepting.

Hey house someone need a few clips here, don't know if a post of this exact nature has been discussed though.

In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.

Would it help if one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.

Just dont mind on whatever things that they would be experiencing considering that both husband and wife do gamble then expect that their finances would really be that ruined.
You would be basically be that completely stopping if both of you do realize that you dont already have the money to spend and this is something that you would really be that
the moment you would really be making out regrets and its already too late. Both of you wont really be just destroying your family interms of finances but also in terms of
family relationship on which this is something that it is really important into a family. This is why you should really be that mindful on whatever things
that you do encounter because if you dont then expect for some messed up life.

Yeah you read the question correctly.

I got this taught while involved in discussion with some of my friend today, it was round of friends and we were practically catching up after some old memories in high school so discussion led to discussion and the issue of regretting to ever knowing how to gamble came up and believe me it was a very serious issue as one of my friend was practically blaming the other for the whole problem is currently going through right now as he constantly gambles his money away and at what avail? was the question being asked to the friend who actually inviting him to a gambling house during highschool. The matter looks childish at first because the whole table of friends there were all gamblers including myself but we all never reached the height of complaining or blaming someone for our gambling ethics.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

Well we are only human, so obvious we try to find something or someone to blame other than ourselves in bad and emotional moments. Losing a lot of money in gambling is one of the triggers of such emotional moments.

The best thing to do is realize that becoming rich or making an income with gambling is nearly impossible. When they realize that, gambling starts seeming like an form of entertainment only. Figure out how much that entertainment is worth to you, in terms of money.

I would never gamble more than a very small amount of money/day. You really don't need to chase the adrenaline kick of that large bets when you can feel it with smaller amounts.

We would really be loving on pointing out fingers and it is really just that a very common human being behavior on having like this on which we are really putting up all the blame to someone on who would really be able to be on spot on. Grin

There would be no regret scenarios or situations if you are really just that mindful about your actions because if you dont then you would really be ending up on getting addicted on which this is something that we must avoid on the first place. Gambling is really just that for fun but if you are that someone whose really that playing for making
income then it would really be giving out that kind of desperation kind of emotion on which it would really be pushing you to play even further and this is something that
wont be new in gambling field.

Does any of feel behavioral change in you based on the win/loss in gambling.

Of course behavioral change is a normal thing in gambling because there is no way someone will lose a bet and be happy because there would always be this regret about going to the gambling on the first place, ......

I think that should not be called regret, you'll only regret if you find what you are doing is wrong and you don't want to do it again. This is gambling, it's expected that we will experience losing and winning, so we have to accept our losses, what we should do is to learn from our mistakes and improve our strategy so we will have more winnings than losses, which is a formula of a profitable gambling.

Once you engage yourself in gambling, always note to yourself that you will experiencing winnings and losses because that's how gambling runs, It's not all about winnings so you don't have to regret doing it. If you experiencing losses, much better to learn from it and try to improve your gambling skills if you already have yours.

You should really be wary in regarding about winning and losing on which these are the only two things that will really be the main things that you would be able to encounter.
On the time that you do win then its normal that you would really be having that happy feeling or emotions on which it is really that totally opposite when you are really that
experiencing losses on which it would really be just that normal since we do gamble and this is why it would be better that making self realizations and normal approach
should really be needing. Changes in behavior is common but dont make yourself do able to affect other people around you because this is a solid indication
that you do have some temper problems.

If someone really does want to lend money to a gambler, don't expect that he will respect your arrangements.
Because losing is inevitable on this game, and you can't force the gambler to pay if he lost all the money.
This is why a gamblers can easily be digging his grave of debts after debts from everyone.

Funding a gambler will be better if you just have it at the back of your mind that what ever the out come is you are willing to accept it els you will have yourself to blame because wining is not guaranteed regardless of how well the person is good and experienced at gambling there will definitely be losses at some point .

Lending money to a gambler could be very risky because there's no certainty of payment except the gambler turns out lucky almost immediately but then at that it also happens that greed could set in and they would wan to further grow the money and may end up loosing it again to the casino and most likely come to beg for an extension in the payment time so when lending a gambler just be aware of the risk involved and the gambler my further add to their Dept in the bid to recover.

Thats totally a regretful thing if you do let someone to play with your own funds, i dont know on whats the actual reason on why there are people who do really finance up some gambler.
If they could really just that simply bet on their own then it wont really be regretful but since there are ones who do really aim for profitability on which they would really be targeting into those
gamblers or bettors who do have a bigger chance or having that good winning rate on which they could at least assure themselves that they are on the right person without even
trying to look at on the risks involved that not anyone could really be that so lucky from time to time on which it would really be causing up that much huge devastation when unlucky times do hits.

I guess this is how it looks when you really "self-exclude yourself" from gambling... just move all your money away from yourself, into some locked service, or anyway far from yourself. But what makes self-exclusion really efficient is that you have your money with you, but you decide to not spend it on gambling... that is a powerful mind. It's never easy to stop with something that is deep inside us, but there are ways to beat the force that drives us to do some "wrong" things.

In the end, I believe that self-exclusion works far better than some casino exclusions... if we are not ready to give up some things, nothing else can help!

There's no such thing specially having those self exclusion would really be that relevant or something that would really be effective against into those gambling addicts on which you would really be playing and finding yourself do come back and forth on playing gambling as long you do have a get a hold of your funds. If you've been locked or blocked then you could really just that simply find another place on which you could really be able to play on on which it would really be just that so normal that you wont really be something that cant be stopped as long you do have the funds.
Self control would be crucial and something that it is really needed but we know that not all would really be having that kind of control and discipline towards themselves
and this is why they would really be ending up on a disaster.

When I say 'line,' I am referring to the spreads or handicap of a certain team in the game. Through my years of experience, I have noticed that putting effort into analyzing the team's statistics and other factors, such as news and rumors, does not significantly affect my chances of winning.

I got this belief now that bookmakers are already knowledgeable about these aspects, and they take them into consideration when establishing a betting line for a specific game.

How about you? Do you share the same perspective or not?

101%, usually I analysis the game after checking the odds not before.
The odds sometimes telling us what we dont know about the match. Sometimes I feel the odds maker already knew the results even before the match begins.

They are already long time in the business and if ever it is really just that feels that way then sure it is. They do already know on what are the things that puts them on advantage.
If it seems that they do really know on whats ahead then for sure they would really be always having the edge. In my case, i dont see for those news and other possible events
to be non relevant on which this is something that would really be so useful. It do really just happens that luck would really be always that relevant and always
be the main factor on which it would really be neither be a game to be a complete win or loss. This is gambling or betting, so its a matter of win or lose.

I have seen that many gamblers cannot enjoy gambling winnings. They may win but they cannot enjoy the money. A gambler I know likes to accumulate money into his gambling account. The more money he wins from gambling he keeps there. When asked he said he was increasing money for bigger wins. But my one thought is that there is no benefit in gambling for whole life accumulating money. Of course a gambler should enjoy winning or he will lose. Greed is a big problem for gamblers. If a gambler will be greedy he will loss more. I must agree with you that there is no doubt that any gambler will lose if he does not take a break after winning.

There's no such thing about contentment if we do speak about money and us human beings then it would really be that natural that we would really be accumulating money as much as we could
and on the time that we are playing gambling and on the moment that we are really experiencing winnings then it would really be just that a normal approach or reaction that you would really be that
trying out to get more money as the moment you are seeing that it would really be that still possible for you to do so. Its a normal reaction and approach to be done by someone and this is why it would really be that always best that you should really be that mindful about on the things that you would really be doing and not really just that make yourself that being controlled with your greed
because if you do then you would really be messing up your finances sooner or later.

After betting $1 to win $50, you feel like you could have made $500 on the bet if your friend had paid you back $10. You feel like you should have bet more because you won the bet, but before you bet you probably thought you could lose that dollar amount. Since you made $50 with one dollar, I would say that you took a high risk gamble and that risk was high. You are lucky so you won in this gamble. It's a different matter if your friend didn't pay your loan on time, but it's wrong to think that you could have made a lot of money just by paying off the loan. Since money is gambled with risk, the outcome of the gamble can go either way.

Yeah, of course gamblers will want to have bet a higher amount when they win and lower ahen they lose. Unfortunately that's not how it works.

You can't change the past given the present knowledge.

OP made the post here if he would have lost money instead of profit by gambling but he wouldn't have thought like that or he would have thanked his friend in his heart that his friend didn't pay his loan on time. We should be satisfied with what we actually get, gambling with one dollar earned 50 dollars I think he should be satisfied with that much. With one dollar he earned 50 dollars I think he will gamble again with more money hoping for more profit but then the result will not come as he expected. There are many gamblers who have made a lot of money by gambling only on their own luck but it didn't take long for them to lose the amount of money they gained by gambling. It will not take us a day to lose the amount of money we can accumulate in gambling profits over a long period of time. OP has profited here I think now he should be careful and control his greed and then gamble.

It would really be just that ending up on two different possible responses or reaction on which he would really be that thankful into his friend if that bet had been a lost but since its a winning bet then you would really be able to expect the different thing.It is really just that a very normal human being kind of reaction. Grin

People would really be making out those regrets that they havent been able to bet big
on the time that they are winning and this is where people would be making out that freaking blaming time into those people who are cause on why they havent been able to win up big.
This is a common approach and reaction but still a win is a win and the profits made are actually not bad because having that $10 to 50? this isnt something
that anyone could be able to hit up.

Do you think Me starting gambling would effect me in my real life or make me addicted to gambling. What’s you suggestion and advices.

It depends on some factors...
The first and most important is conditioned on the answer you give to this question:

What is your main goal with gambling, to have fun or to "get rich"?

If your answer is the second option, then you already have a 50% chance of becoming an addicted player, unfortunately.
However, if you have discipline and manage to impose limits on amounts and time with gambling, then you will probably never become an addicted gambler.

Good luck!

Not only 50% but rather i would say 90% chances for you to get addicted once you do have this kind of approach towards gambling. If you are that someone who do really just simply play just for fun
then you wont really be likely on getting addicted with it but overtime when you already making gambling as a habit then this is where things starts to change and this is something that would really be that needing to be careful about because this is where people do mess up their finances on the time that they would be playing like a madman. FOr those who are really just starting with
gambling or newbies, then they shouldnt really be that anticipating that gambling could make them rich. They should be thinking that they are really just that paying for the fun that they do seek
off before anything else.

While strolling in a park I bumped into an old friend with whom I had a conversation about online gambling we had a long conversation some three weeks ago, actually the original topic was about Bitcoin but for some reason I mentioned online gambling using Bitcoin, and that what opened about a lengthy conversation about online gambling using Cryptocurrency.

I didn't know that he signed up for one popular casino that I mentioned he started to play there and had huge success using one of the oldest but ineffective methods which is Martingale, I was just surprised that he had a successful run using a variation of martingale on Dice even mentioning of doubling or tripling his bankroll.
He is about to deposit a huge amount of money next week because the holiday is very near and he just wants to explore his so-called new-found method, which is not new to us.

We all know Martingale will not work in the long run, should I let him find out himself but that will incur a heavy loss in this case. Cry

Or should I discourage him by showing him videos, articles, and testimonials?

Because of this, I will not talk about online gambling to newbie I could put a guy in big trouble.

Warn him. I think that's the best you could do.
When your friend entered the world of gambling, I hope he knew the risk that he was taking by doing so. Because there are individuals who heard about one popular casino, and signed up but had no idea what they were doing.
Then the one thing that mostly happens after the sign-up is the trap. He is now living it. It's not beginner's luck but these are baits to make people play more. He will definitely win while he is a non-VIP, I could tell because I've been there, withdrawn a lot of times from my winnings, but now that I am a VIP, I cannot seem to find that same luck that I had before, whatever the strategy I make especially with the casino games and the originals.
"Martingale is for people with deep pockets." That's what I would tell to my friend who is on his way to using that kind of strategy.

Yes, its not really that bad to give out some warning specially if he's your bestfriend or close one, as an experienced gambler then you do already know on what are the things that could possibly happen specially it is really just that common sense that we cant really be that able to have those winning permanently specially on gambling. Yes, you might be able to experience those wins on using martingale but it is really just that temporal and something doesnt really last long.If he wont listen then its up to him but at least you have told him something on which he cant blame you
out and would really be feeling sorry on the time that he would be experiencing those problems specially with gambling losses on which it is really that common.

Because he was easily tempted by the gambling he saw there, when he won he should have gone home and stopped instead he placed another bet. It is difficult to control oneself when people are addicted to gambling, it is difficult to advise and they do not use common sense to make wise decisions. It's true, what gamblers have to do when they win or lose two or three times is to stop first to calm their minds to get better, and when they recover, return to the casino in a good state of mind.

That's what often happens to gamblers, not just him because by winning, he doesn't choose to stop gambling but instead continues gambling. And when he lost, he considered it normal and continued playing. After playing for some time, he experienced total loss, where all his money was used up for gambling because he wanted to chase a bigger win. But that won't always happen for those who still want a big win because it will depend on the luck they have. That is what we must avoid if we have won, and we should immediately cash out the winnings and leave the casino so that we are not interested in trying other gambling games.

When greed kicks in then it would really be that so hard to stop and this is something to be very typical for most gamblers on having such kind of behavior. Who doesnt really want for you to have that more winnings? Luck would really be that a huge factor when it comes to winning and its true that once you are really experiencing some winnings and on a consecutive manner then you would really be
having that kind of a feeling or boost up that you should really be playing more for you to have that more winning and this is something that you would really be able to experience on point.
For those people who arent that good when it comes to self control will really be definitely be playing even more on having those hopes that they could be able to win more which it is
really that a bad behavior.
