161  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: March 09, 2024, 11:59:18 PM

Everyone of us has a secret and there are a lot reason why we hide it but in gambling it's better to show all we got than hiding some of this problems. Cause it will affect more in our life once we are hiding something in our family and it will make more crucial if they will know late than their expected. Anyways it's up to us if we gonna tell our family or keep it hiding until they found out cause there's no secret that can not be revealed.

I think there mustn’t be any reason if one decides to be private with his gambling activities. There is only going to be a problem if one decides to be irresponsible with his gambling actions and that in turn could have a negative effects on his life and others.
But a person who gambles responsibly could have a healthy gambling lifestyle and could also be private as well. People are quick to say stupid things and literally judge someone without knowing anything. Keeping up it activities private could also bring one peace and rest of mind from judging eyes.

However, although gambling addicts are usually terrible, there are many people today who are irresponsibly gambling only and are destroying their families and society. Because gambling usually leads people to ruin but there are many gamblers out there gambling for fun. A man I know who ruined his family by gambling and sold lots of land is now a carefree single. He roams the streets and is now a fugitive in debt due to his gambling losses, so gambling is generally good as well as bad but not addictive.

Gambling isnt really that bad if you are really just that responsible towards it. If you cant really be able to make yourself control when it comes on dealing with it then you would really be messing up your life with it. It would all matters on how you would really be making yourself that responsible but most of the time on which people would really be that skeptical when it comes to
showing their gambling activity on which they would really be assuming out that people around would really be having that kind of bad views towards you once they've seen that you are
dealing up with gambling and this is something that you should really be having in mind. Play for fun and actually there's nothing wrong for you to end up on hiding your activities.

You need rest too, it seems. Gambling sometimes makes something about us a little worse, and sometimes makes it a little better. We cannot always receive positive effects, because our money wins and losses always alternate.

When you have the worst day of your life, you will feel sick of all your bets. No wins, emotions worsen, money runs out. Yes, that's the right time to take a break. It can take a matter of days or weeks to restore your positive mood.
Would really be that a swing of emotions considering that we are dealing up with something that could make our money lose or win on which it would really be that normal that you do get sad or angry
on the time that you do lose money and you would be happy if you do win on which it would really be something that normal. It would really be just that normal that having those kind of reactions since we are really just that humans. It is really just that there are people who are really that too impulsive when dealing up with gambling and this is why they do really ends up on having
that different approach towards gambling on which there are ones who are really that realistic and there are ones who are that delusional.
You are the ones who would really be leading up on what are the actions you would be making.

I really like your idea and perspective aswell, it's actually the best thing to do, if you can just quit or exit in awhile and come back to gambling again you may be able to recover that which you did lost while at it earlier, if you insist on gambling even amidst your losses, you may only be putting yourself at more risk than you should have because you may loose even more while trying to recover, I think this is no new things as most posters on this forum has mentioned this a few times, so it most definitely a thing that should be know by now as the best to do especially when one is loosing heavily.


If we study deeper how most gambling games constructed you will notice that all of them has a house edge ranging from 1% and above and this small percentage gives a huge impact on your game in long run since casino games is designed so that they will frequently win against players that keeps playing.

The answer to this thread question relies on how do you view gambling in general. Many people view it as source of income that why indecision when lose on what to do after is always confusing. If you view gambling as a mere source of entertainment, you will not be bothered to play again since you will on,y play money that you can afford to lose
The higher the house edge the higher the risks that you would be losing until the end. I have seen the lowest is playing around 0.5% on which it is on Crypto.games but i dont know if there
were still other sites that do offer such lower HE but well if you do play that longer then as long there house edge then you would inevitably lose. This is why it would really be that important that you should really be having that moderation on which on the time you do lose up money then there should really be that threshold so that you wont get shocked.

Actually its not really that had to determine whether you would really be that stopping or continuing because we do have that different threshold when it comes to finances
on which there are really those kind of limits on which needs to be followed.
164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Couple won the jackpot but split soon after! on: March 08, 2024, 09:14:13 PM
That is exactly what it is going to happen, because right now the one that has the full rights to that prize money is the girlfriend, and even if I agree that morally half of the prize is his, since it was his idea to buy the tickets and he had the intention to pay for it but his bank app failed, when it comes to the law I do not think he has a leg to stand on, since legally she has the right to get all of the prize money and if she does not want to share it that is her choice, so I think he will lose the lawsuit.

I wished they could have handled this in a friendly manner but not to be. Reading the whole story some questions arises in my mind like

1) Is money more important than any relationship?

2) Are people so greedy for money?
Many people would like to believe themselves to be the kind of person that can put themselves, their family, country and values above all else, but we know better, most people do in fact care way more about the money than anything else, but I really think she is not really considering all the aftereffects this decision will bring her, because even if she could keep all of that money, nothing can be hidden these days, so whenever she desires to start new a relationship with someone else, that person will eventually find out what she did, and most of them will take the decision to give up on her, as it is clear where her priorities are.
What would be the after effects? The only thing i do saw that it would really be affected is on his relation with his boyfriend but since they are still dating for 3 months then i would say that this wont hurt much. It would be an another story if we do see some couples that goes beyond 3-5 years or more and then suddenly make out those kind of breakouts just because of money talks.
Yes, this money isnt something that too small or could be life changing but we do know that getting in having those kind of break outs just because of money disagreement or discussion then
it is really just that sad that people do really changed in an instant if we do speak about money. Well shit happens specially to that guy, when it comes to legal actions or approach then
the girl would be having that full rights of such winning.There's no such thing about moral things if we do speak about money.  Cheesy
165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Support, do not criticize. on: March 08, 2024, 07:40:47 PM
If you know anybody trying to stop the addiction of gambling to become better for themselves and their family, try and show them support by not criticizing them. If you observe that they experience some kind of relapse and go back to gamble even when they said they were not going to gamble, try to encourage them to remember why they wanted to stop gambling for the time. It is not an easy decision for some of them to make, and even imagining that they will never gamble again can make it worse for them, most of them need all the support they can get to help them maintain the decision to give gambling some time away. If you criticize and mock them, they may nurse in the heart the mindset that gambling is impossible to stop, or even stop trying to stop gambling because you have already made them feel like they can never do it.
It is impossible to change people by criticising and putting blame on them like they are the cause to their problems , you can only change people when you approach them with love, this will bring a good bond that will make things easy for you to convince them. When you criticise people when trying to change them  they will think you are against them and they will never take your correction or let you come closer to them.

Love and kindness is the easiest way to convince people about anything. People that are in difficult challenge always go to a Councillor that  will not judge them.

I doubt if criticising someone that is addicted will ever help the person to change . When trying to help someone that is addicted you make feel they are not the cause for their problems and it is possible for them to change.
When you do criticize someone then for sure it would really be making out such kind of feeling which they would really be down and whenever that getting depressed or sad would really be fueling out
their gambling  addiction even more because they do thought that anyone is already that having a bad view towards him, this is why it would really be that best that you should really know
on how to have that kind of good approach into someone who does have that kind of gambling problem because if you do find out yourself having that kind of aggressive approach then instead
on helping out someone into its addiction, you would really be rather seeing it to become worst. It would really be just that common sense on how you would really be needing to deal up
something such as this on which it would be impossible that you cant be able to determine on which one is needed up to do first than the other.
166  Economy / Gambling / Re: Does anyone find the spate of online casinos a bit uninspired? on: March 08, 2024, 07:41:36 AM
It is true of course that if we stick to one casino and only gamble on the same games it will feel boring, and when boredom appears then we will probably look for new things, such as looking for interesting new games, because there are people who gamble by looking for new games. a game that has an interesting journey with each round that makes us comfortable. However, if you want to change casinos or look for a casino, in my opinion it's the same, all casinos most likely have the same games, almost all the games are the same even though there are some games that are different. In my opinion, the difference between many casinos today is in terms of appearance. There are many casinos available with various different color displays, but in my opinion the games are all the same. Not much different from each other.

In my own opinion and my experience in gambling, I once felt bored with the same games. And I don't gamble at just one casino, but for some reason when I get bored, I don't want to look for a new casino, but I want to do something other than gambling. Because I know that there is only the same gambling and the result that will happen is definitely losing so I am so bored, also like you said, of course if we move casinos or look for a new casino, we have to read Tos, reviews, or new casino review and I find it boring, and think it's just a waste of time. And also with the many new casinos that definitely offer promotions and bonuses, I don't think it's strange anymore and so often I now feel bored with all that, but I'm not a hypocrite, of course if you want to win you won't get bored. What's boring is just the flow of the game, not the winning.

I understand your feelings well and I can assume that you are really just tired of gambling.  
In my opinion, when a game no longer brings any real emotions from winning or losing, then this becomes the reason that it gets boring.  
Naturally, then the game turns into a stream of some of your same type of actions.  You can simply say a long series of your mechanical actions or automatic moves in the game.
 Well, what kind of pleasure can you get from this?  Yes, actually none.

 In my opinion, you need to take a long break from games and then maybe when you return to the world of gambling, emotions will appear or increase a little.  And it will become interesting to play again.  But until the next period of “gaming apathy”.

the pleasure is victory, but victory is difficult to obtain. In gambling, we can win if we have luck, but there are also some types of gambling where we can increase our chances of winning if we have skill, but that also only increases, not guarantees, because in my opinion the point boils down to luck. maybe the fact that the end result is always losing, that will make you bored, but it's good to be bored with gambling because there is the possibility of being able to stop, but I'm not sure if you get bored with gambling you will stop gambling, because to stop gambling is awareness of the impact bad things caused by gambling.

It's true what you said, it's better to just take a break to stretch your thinking, even though some say gambling is for fun or to fill free time, there are times when boredom sets in. Also we shouldn't take up gambling activities when we have nothing to do, because there are still many things that can be done and may be more useful.
Gambling should really be just that for fun and not something that would really be that trying to make money from it because this is where people or gamblers do usually mess up their lives on the time that they would really be having this kind of approach towards gambling. There are really just that those people who are really that too impulsive and this is why they do become that addicted.
In speaking about the casinos design are really that similar to each other then i couldnt blame out to those people who do have those kind of impressions on which it is actually true.
I do agree into those sayings above that once we've seen some copycats then this is where our views and feelings would really be turning out to be negative.
167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Even as a sport fan be careful! on: March 07, 2024, 11:45:37 PM
Two Brighton supporters were stabbed in Rome last night ahead of tonight's Europa League round of 16 first leg tie against Roma.
This is so sad. When you are in a public place, always mind things which you will be saying, their are some unnecessary arguments which you are not suppose to involve yourself, sometimes just keep your opinion to yourself and keep quit. I feel bad for those people that were stabbed, but people that did that are suppose to be punished, why do you have to do that kind of crazy thing, no matter your condition, you should be able to control your anger, it shouldn’t get to the length of stabbing someone. Football is just suppose to be for fun, and unite people, it’s not suppose to separate people and kill people.
For those people who are really that paranoid when it comes to security then they wont really bother on going into arenas or public places on which they could potentially find these kind of troubles
but actually there's nothing wrong if you are really that going just for fun because not all the time these troubles been mold up, it is really just that sometimes our mind is really that advanced when it comes to this matter on which on the time that we do really be able to project out those kind possible situation or condition then you would really be considering out on having that kind of mindset
that you shouldnt really be going into these place which its a normal approach i would say. Dont be fearful and be alert all the times if ever you would be going into public places.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun and not a way of making money on: March 06, 2024, 06:56:49 PM
Even if all you seek for in gambling is some fun, there will always be that little hope of making money in you, if fun is all you want it won't be from gambling with money, you will get the fun without spending a dime but that can't happen with online casinos.

Let's not lie to ourselves, both responsible and irresponsible gamblers are all hoping to make some money, I tend not to lose a lot of money in the process, this is what makes me different from those who are reckless with gambling.

When I will be next lucky is unknown, and no matter how much I risk on gambling, the next luck won't come faster, why not have patience and use small amount of money on gambling? Because this is so clear that you can't predict when next you will win some money.

No need saying that all fun gamblers want is the fun in gambling, it's clear that the money is a part of the fun. The only importance of gambling for fun, is to elevate the emotions of the gambler and refrain him from depression caused by too many losses. This strategy, also, helps the gambler to wager bit by bit, as he's not fully interested in the money. Those who go for the money, most often, are players that don't care about their bank roll. Saving up money while gambling is fun, losing out all our money isn't. Hence, it's better to be careful and retain our happiness. Chasing money, uncontrollably, only requires carelessness and puts the gambler in a mode where he could lose out his savings. Thereby, risking him to addictive gambling. A person who is happy over his gaming results, is way better than a player who regrets or gets sad over losing out money in gambling.
Emotions would really be the main problem for most gamblers on which on the time that they would really be able to experience those consecutive losses then this is where these kind of impulsive
emotions would really be tending to come out and in result you would really be making out those kind of impulsive actions as well on which we do know that once these things been applied
on a gambling activity then it would really be something that gives out that disastrous kind of result. Gambling should really be just that for fun and not something that would be just aimed to make
easy money because having these kind of hopes and positivity would really be just that making you desperate.

As much as possible you should really be stopping or refraining yourself on having this kind of insight or having that in mind because once you do have this
kind of perception then wrong decisions or acts could really be done along the way.
169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports that you don’t watch but you keep placing bets on: March 06, 2024, 05:46:24 PM

I have 3 rules actually.
First, I never bet on sports I don't know. Meaning I only bet games where I made some information gathering before the match. Also I must know the sport, league and current situation of both teams/players involved.
Second, I only make bets with 2 way results ( like tennis, basketball, volleyball ), meaning football or hockey and so on that might result in a draw are gone from my list.

Third, I almost never watch the games I bet on live. Sure, I follow the live ticker but watching the actual game is something I never do because seeing my team making too many mistakes or misses annoys me too much, haha.


Point #1- I agree with this on which it would be always best that you shouldnt really be making out some bets on the games or sports that you dont even know. There's no point on doing that.
Point #2- When it come to bet limitation then it would really be that just that depending because if we do see some good opportunity bets on which you do know then numbers
cant really be known.
Point #3- Watching it live? This is where excitement comes up but if you are that someone whose really that becoming that impulsive then it would really be just that wise
that you would really be skipping on watching on.

In overall, it would really be always best that you should really be having that kind of consideration that you shouldn't really be betting on games on which you dont know
The odds or chance of winning would really be just that less in compared into those games which you do know on what it is.

Usually the indirect victims could neither be wife/husband or your closest family members on which if time and financial has been compromised then expect that
results could really be affecting out into those people who is around you on which gamblers whom had been addicted with gambling wont really be tending to look after those things
as long they do have that kind of addiction towards themselves on which it is really that sad. People around you would really be trying out to help you to resolved out that addiction
on which they do know that they would really be affected once this thing would really be lasting out or comes to that severe point or condition.

It is really just that sad that there are tons of relationships that had been crushed up due to too much addiction on which we do know that
regrets do always comes at the end and not from the start.
171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling between the past and nowadays on: March 04, 2024, 12:59:02 PM
We have all noticed the changes that have occurred in gambling over the past years, as gambling in 1990 or before is not the same as it is today due to several factors, including:
-Ease of playing and more casinos.
-Inventing new tools and methods of playing.
-Online gambling and the emergence of easy-to-use applications that support all games.
-The method of advertising has changed, becoming more effective and attracting more players.
-The presence of liquidity due to the increase in the amounts that players bet.
-Provides more profit opportunities..

In your opinion, what are the factors that brought  change in the field of gambling? What is your outlook on it in the future?
Basically I think the easy accessibility of online gambling is an important aspect in the rapid development of this industry. I used to see the tendency of gamblers in my local area to go to casinos. Where gamblers could not feel very safe. Moreover, going there was not considered good socially. Due to which many people could not do their gambling even if they wanted to. But the advent of online gambling has made it possible to remove such obstacles. Now anyone has the opportunity to gamble at any place as per their wish. Gambling is very easy now for those who are gamblers. Moreover, as there are various types of games in online gambling, a gambler can play any games as per his wish. This industry has grown rapidly as they have the convenience of making quick deposits and withdrawals online or through banks whenever they run out of money.
Not only just that limited on gambling but also in other industries as well on which due to technology which everything becomes that too fast and this is something that we do make things even more
comfort and easy on which this is something that we are thankful but i do agree on some points that due to easy access, there are cons too on which everyone could easily be able to hover or get involved with gambling on which it do comes into a point that youngsters or minors do make involvement on which this is something that should really be stopped because its never been that easy to detect on.
This is why as parent then it would really be best that you should be monitoring your children in regarding on the things that they are dealing with.
172  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: March 04, 2024, 12:36:19 PM
Yes, it is. The most part of casino can be called CEX. Of course, it used with exchanges, but i don`t know how we can call the same casinos. DEX and CEX allows us to understand what we want to say.
About KYC i said lots of times - i don`t see any problem with KYC, except KYC, when you can`t choose its time. If i withdraw money i want to be sure that i get it right now.
You wont really be having no problems if you do really just that simply make yourself that able to deal with those known casinos or reputable ones on which you could really be able to assure yourself that you would be getting paid up on the time that you would really making those withdrawal request, somewhat we should really be thinking that there would really be that a particular threshold on which time comes that they would really be asking something about verification or some sort on which this isnt shocking or really not that totally new considering that these places are already that centralized or under regulations
on which it wont really be that something new.

To make yourself not getting in shock then it would be always better that you should really be having at least the  time on reading up those terms and conditions
on which you could really be able to make yourself wary about those things and wont really be shocked on the time that you've been asked out
when you do make out some request.
If you read my previous posts you can see that i don`t afraid KYC. I want to have an opportunity to KYC when the gambler want. If i need money right now and i haven`t KYC yet - it take some money, mostly at least one day. If i can ask KYC myself - i don`t have such problems.
And don`t tell me about ToS. There are always the same thing - "The casino can KYC your any moment" with some small difference in text. I don`t see "The gambler can ask KYC himself" their.
Some people do really afraid about exposing their identity and there are some who dont really care at all since there's nothing that they would really be tending to hide. This is why it would really be just that depending on a certain person because we arent all sharing up on the same interest and idea in mind. The main thing on why crypto casinos did make out such noise and recognition is that because of that anonymity feature on which to those people who are privacy concerned is that they do see this stuff to be revolutionary and this is why they would really be loving and preferring on playing
on crypto casinos due to this very reason. The sad thing is that these platforms used to be fully anonymous but on the time that regulation do kicks in then they do become that strict
when it comes to implementing regulation which it would really be that affecting its users.
173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers trickily claims they wins the bet while they never did. on: March 04, 2024, 08:33:08 AM
So what is the idea of this topic? Confirm once again that people lie? Personally, I dont care if gambler boasts about how much he had won. Because I know that behind that one big win are thousands of losses, that makes his total gambling balance negative or little above zero Cheesy Somehow, if someone comes to me first to share that he had won a million, I would not trust him. Few people like to show that they won a lot.
Gambling always makes everyone hope that something great has happened but basically no one can win regularly from gambling.  If one wins gambling once, he loses several times later. But those who become addicted to winning do not consider the gambling loss very big but that one time winning seems very big to them. And thus they continue to gamble and they become very weak financially. Because of this, the less time spent on gambling, the better for us
1 win then all of those loses that you do have earlier would really be wiped away on which this is something a very common gambling behavior specially into those people who are already addicted to it.
They wont really be minding about those loses and they would really be coming after for the win that they might be able to hit it up on the time that they would be making further bets. We do know that this is really just that an excuse for them to ease out that frustration and anger that they do felt out. Those are really just that methods that they would really be able to play even further.
Better not to make yourself that listening out into those people's words because if you do keep on making yourself hearing out those words then you might get influenced.

This is why it would really be that best that you should really be that only playing with the extra money that you do have so that on the time you do lose then you wont
really be putting up yourself on such trouble and this is something that you would really be needing to avoid because once you do play on the amount
that you cant afford to lose, then you would really be that impulsive.
174  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: March 04, 2024, 02:52:58 AM
~snip~
Newbie gamblers can be persistent about making the wrong gambling choices. Even when with an expert. However, it helps being with an expert, at least to remind the newbie of his wrong moves. Although some people would think that their own choices remain the best. You see that gamblers sometimes wouldn't care about the words of the expert. But if the person is quite very close with the expert, he wouldn't resist his advice. And it'll be hard for the gambler to get compulsive on the long run. That's the importance of having a good gambler around newbies. Because if he gets addicted, it'll be quite a long healing journey for the gambler to get back to his normal gambling habit. Definitely the people around the addict will go through multiple stress. Which can even lead them to therapy, because multiple stress can affect the way one thinks and behave.
But usually, gamblers hide their gambling habits from other people, even if they are members of their own family. This requires attention from other family members to recognize changes in the gambler's attitude so they can ask the gambler about it. If the gambler wants to say that he has started to become addicted to gambling, his family members can immediately take him to see a professional who can cure him. This requires a fairly long healing journey for the gambler. But it is all worth it considering that there are family members who will always accompany this long journey so that the gambler will not feel alone in struggling to cure his gambling addiction. Maybe his family members will experience the impact of the gambler. But if there is mutual openness between them, especially from the gambler, they can help each other to try to overcome and cure their gambling addiction.

A family member who is observant enough to know the troubles of the gambler can spot the moment, the player is undergoing a problem in his life. If he's seriously interested in saving his ward he can hold a valuable conversation with him regarding their behavior and the reason behind the struggle. The player can decide to avoid the questions, but if he opens up as you said, he could be making the right step towards coming out of his trouble. Not minding how long it takes for the person to get healed, the healing process is most important. Paying a deaf ear on him and not minding his recent attitude can affect the player's family, as his funds will be directed only on gambling, thereby affecting other purposes why money is handed to the gambler. Hence, in a family, people should make out time to read the activities of their loved ones or ward.
If one of the family members would really be having that kind of potential gambling problem then it is really that impossible that no one inside the family would really be able to notice it out on which we do know that whenever there are some actions or behavior then it would really be easily be able to detect it out, unless if the said member is really that good on hiding his actions and emotions
then detection would really be that hard until when things becomes severe then this is where things to come out with those symptoms or even already that severe effects and consequences due too much gambling addiction and it is really just that sad  that one of the members that would really be ending up something like this.

This is why it is really that important that there's some sort of family forum in every week or once every 2 weeks so that there would really be some awareness into those
members who had some problems that cant be told. If ever you've seen that opportunity on helping one of the members then it would really be good.
Trying to have that slow but gentle approach because people would usually be listening advises on this manner.
175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Work Now May Not Work Tomorrow on: March 04, 2024, 01:53:30 AM
How about you have you at one time of your gambling experience experienced finding patterns that you think are effective and consistent only to find out later after several days that it's not working anymore..

And are you still looking for patterns that you think will work in the long run for you.
I don't really believe in gambling where I win regularly. Moreover, the fact that I will win consecutively is also not acceptable. What I want to say is that there are wins and losses in gambling, a gambler must try to employ that strategy and they should have different strategies. But a gambler can never be sure that he will win his game. We know that if a gambler follows the martingale method where his odds are high, he cannot be sure to win where he can. Maybe you win 3 times in a row then your chances of losing are high. Similarly when losing and raising your bet, if it misses a few times it can be a big loss for you. So a decision should be taken considering one's financial position.

Yes we are of the same mind. After all there is absolutely no consistency in terms of the results of gambling especially for winnings, everything is random and means that all gamblers will always find one of the two answers at the end of the session such as winning and losing, anyone will never know the results of his gambling. So it doesn't make sense for anyone to say that they can have a long-term winning streak in gambling, unless they can show the winning transactions but I think that's too impossible.

The point is that gambling is not a place that can provide anyone with income especially in a long-term streak, because there is absolutely no certainty that can guarantee you to always win, and also for the problem of winning is always about the situation of "coincidence" which is clearly not known in advance that the victory will occur. On the other hand, healthy gambling is gambling by balancing the financial situation as you said, such as putting the amount you can afford to lose because this is the best approach if you want to avoid the possibility of bad gambling in the long run.
Gamblers would really be having that never ending search for answers and proofs that their strategies would really be working until they would really be keeping on making those deposits until they would really be losing up that big time. This is why it would really be always best that you should really know on how to make yourself that having the control because if you dont then you would really be keeping on pushing until you would really be satisfying yourself whether it would work or not. If it gets busted then you would really be looking for another and the cycle continues.
As long you wont really be making yourself that getting satisfied on the things that you are seeking then you wont really be stopping yourself.

Strategies could really be only applied into those strategic based games on which it would really be requiring that sufficient experience and skills towards it, but somewhat it would really be still that requiring that luck factor for you to be overall be able to win up the game. This is gambling/betting on which it would be still heavily relies on luck. There's no way that you could
be able to control nor influence on how lucky you would be on a particular point.

Those who are 18+ are qualified to gamble because they are mature enough to make decisions so any one complaining or blaming others for their gambling losses are just joking around, because no one would buy their stories, besides they were not forced to gamble but rather they chose to take that part after being introduced to it. But some gambling sites for not perform KYC so definitely under age are likely to also gamble without their notice. On the other hand performing KYC would only make the site to loose more customers as not all gamblers like to reveal their identity.
And I believe that at the age of 18, only one person out of 10 knows what it means to be “responsible for one’s decisions,” and knows that every decision needs to be carefully thought through, and especially those decisions that relate to money. I remember myself and my friends at 18 years old - we were lazy and stupid, we didn’t care about anything at all. And the future seemed distant and foggy. We didn’t know the value of money, and I’m sincerely glad that I didn’t stumble upon gambling then. It seems to me that in general only from the age of 20 do we become truly independent. I mean the majority of people, because there are always individuals - someone at 50 is like a fool, and someone at 14 is serious, as if he had given birth to life.
18-21+ age considered to be a legal age on which it would really be unlocking for someone to do the things which they cant be able to do when they are still below that age.
This isnt really just that limited to gambling but also in other things as well like marriage, alcohol,getting a drivers license or on other things as well on which this age would really be considered
to be legal. So speaking about gambling then of course you are on the right age but as of todays era and years on which technology which contributes about easy access
and this is one of the cons of it on which there's no way that we could really be able to tell that people would really be in less age would be able to play without
being detected not unless if there's KYC but we know that most of sites arent asking so bypassing is easy.

You should not help your friend and return his account, besides if you help it will make him more addicted and he can fall into a repeating cycle, I mean borrowing money from people, and borrowing from other parties and so on, it's best not to take a risk, it will end badly
The supposed friend of the OP is just trying to make him suffer his losses instead and get away with it, he is hoping that his friendship is going to be enough to force the OP to throw his common sense out of the window and get the loan he needs, after all while it is often the case for a person to not pay what they owe to a friend, this is not something you can do to loan shark, which will do everything, no matter how heinous, to recover their money.
The main reason on why a friend cant be able to refuse is that he/she doesnt really like that there would really be some possible gaps if ever it would be rejected or be refused.
This is why most of them would really be giving or granting out such request but it doesnt mean  that they are tolerating such gambling addiction by its friend.
For those who arent that making some toleration about on the said condition then they wouldnt really be giving out such loan or borrowing money.
Now in the situation about making up some bets which directly made by you instead of him and telling that it would be just fine that you would be losing it
then i dont really believe those things because there would really be that anger deep inside once you have lost it all.

When you live as a couple and both work, you can consider that a certain percentage of each salary can be devoted to your hobbies (depending on your income).

For one it might be gambling, for the other going to the pub.

The percentage set at the outset must not be exceeded - it's like a marriage contract, it's a commitment. Breaking this contract by gambling away the couple's savings is very serious and is grounds fordivorce, just as infidelity is (when both people have sworn fidelity). Living as a couple is hard enough, so if on top of that, one of you is spending too much and jeopardizing the family budget, it's untenable.

For me or both my wife on which we are not already putting up a budget when it comes to hobbies etc.. which it would really be adding up in overall expenses on which this is something
that we rather putting up those amounts into something more useful or something that more worth specially for the family.  Losing in gambling is inevitable and it is really just that right that you should really know on how to give out importance to priorities of course and if it turns out that both you and your wife are gamblers then expect that sooner or later you would really be having those unwise spendings or would really be that going excessive which might lead into those shortage on which this is something not that good anymore in overall for the family.
You should both needing to make up decisions which for the better of all.
179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to inherit a gambling debt? on: March 03, 2024, 06:59:20 PM
The high rate of gamblers who take loan for gambling purposes is quite alarming, and most of them are fathers to kids. Most of them don't end up taking care of their debt before passing. What happens to the funds, when the lender comes for his money? It's quite a tough one for a person who isn't a gambler to inherit a trouble from a gambling dad. Such things also increase the anger of the society on gamblers, because the addicts are, also, good at extending their problem gambling to other close relatives. Could it be talked through in the law court?
There are many people who take loans to participate in gambling, they go into a lot of debt to get loans, so lenders come to them for loans, they have to sell their houses and land to pay off their loans. I have seen many people around me who take loans from moneylenders to gamble. They take loans and participate in gambling and at some point they lose everything as lenders come to them for loans, they have to sell their houses and land to pay off their debts. Such gamblers are the most hated people in the society, especially in the rural society these people are very hated by all the people. A small budget should always be used for gambling and never more than a small budget. Those who have spent all of their life's income on gambling are the ones who suffer the most and end up in debt.
When a gambler becomes addicted to gambling, the possibility of controlling his gambling activities becomes almost impossible and at that time, he's very likely to make decisions that'll affect him deeply. I've been opportuned to see gamblers who sold off almost everything in their custody including the ones they that aren't legally their own just to fund their gambling addiction and I've also seen others who went as far as borrowing money from money lenders while using their landed properties as collateral just to also find their gambling addiction. But the good thing about the above mentioned actions some addicted gamblers take is that they'll end up suffering the consequences of their actions by themselves unlike what happens when the take loans without a collateral and probably promise the loanee that they're going to pay later and dies without paying those loans.

When a gambler takes a loan or borrows money and fails to repay before dying, the debts are in most times going to be inherited by his close relatives who will now have to go through the pain of paying for a debt they didn't know when it was incurred but that's not the most painful part of paying such debts. The most painful thing about paying for such debts is that the debts will be payed with the knowledge that the  diseased used the proceeds of the borrowed money to gamble. My opinion about this kind of scenerio is that the law should be more kind to the relatives of such person so they stop paying for a debt they didn't incure
When a gambler borrows from his moneylender, he never borrows from the moneylender by telling his moneylender about gambling, he always borrows from the moneylender by telling his moneylender about family difficulties or some other difficulty. When a moneylender is given a loan due to family difficulties or for the treatment of a sick person, the moneylender is bound to give the loan because the moneylender's duty is to stand by the family of his worker. But here I want to say that the moneylender must talk to his family and give the loan to his worker after asking what he is using. There are many people in my area who tell such lies to their close relatives and participate in gambling by taking money from moneylenders. There comes a time when they become so addicted to gambling that they are forced to commit suicide or leave the country for a distant country. So if every close relative moneylender is careful it is possible to solve such problems.
We're dealing with a genuine issue, not an excuse playground. Fraudulent borrowing? That route is ethically treacherous. Money isn't everything; trust is. If that breaks, good luck reconstructing

However, the gambler is not solely responsible. Two-way street. Moneylenders (or family and friends) must be more careful. Accountability and support are essential. Question, demand transparency. It's not prying; it's preventing disaster. Let's not demonize gambling. Hobbies are different from habits. Responsible, limited gaming is healthy. Like fire, it's a tool when controlled but a calamity when uncontrolled
Once trust is broken then taking it back into its original couldnt be possible, once that is broken then people wont be able to trust you back just like before. So its never been that an advisable thing for you to do so. This is why it would really be always best to go into that good side of things rather than on going into that swindler like kind of mindset.  Grin
Gambling debt? Its never been that a good idea nor really that suggested on trying out to tolerate yourself on doing such thing because if you do go into this path and keeps on piling up
on the time that you do keep on playing or engaging and keeps borrowing, then you are just likely that digging up your own grave.

When it comes to legal aspect then i dont know if debt could really be possibly be inherited but it would be understandable that those people who had been borrowed from
would surely be trying out to ask the family members that you would needing up to pay on what you have borrowed on which its common sense.

Once agrression takeover for sure you won't be able to control and next you know a huge amount of money is already been taken away from your savings, to the point that you can everything without limiting yourself while trying to seek for luck either to recover or to win big time while playing or betting with the game you choose to gamble.


Yes, sometimes taking over aggression drives a gambler to act inappropriately and in fact, many people do it without realizing it. because this really influences a person to act carelessly, especially without strong self-control to prevent or anticipate it.
Just like taking savings to be able to gamble according to our wishes, of course this must also be balanced with a good mindset and control. If there are none of these things then it is very likely that he will experience a lot of losses.

That's the reason why we need to stop that aggression cause once it will happen Then we got a good decision but If we don't have to control our mind then one thing for sure we Will loss a lot of money. Cause even though we will loss but if we are in aggression and greedy then we are still  i'll put our bet even though we loss.. anyways we are all human we have a chance to loss.bavsuse we forgot sometimes.

Sometimes people forget their limits and mindset to become better, if in gambling when we see other people's wins, it is likely that our minds and hearts want to feel the same thing, but in gambling the results are different.
We must not imitate or even impose desires that are not in accordance with our own abilities because if we want to be reckless then we cannot control it so what happens is a lot of harm and loss.
If you are someone who do get easily be influenced by other peoples gambling win then you should really be that tending to avoid to look for those wins so that you wont really be that making yourself that impulsive on which you would really be trying out to do the same thing on which we know that winning of others or really that speaking about being lucky is really that different into each person on which if you are trying out to copy or mimic out those people then you would be finding yourself that desperate. It would really be just that common sense to understand that we cant really be able to
know on when we would really be lucky on the time that we would be playing on which we know that it would really be that totally different into each person.

Now on the time that you do tend to make it as a secret with your gambling activity then it is really just that normal since community and other people are really that too
conclusive about gambling activity to be a bad thing or negative on which it would be directly be pertaining that you are already addicted to gambling once they have
seen you on playing on which they dont know that you are just playing to have some leisure or enjoyment that you are seeking.
