Gambling is a very serious addiction who gets completely addicted to this addiction will lose all happiness and peace in his life he will always be in depression. An uncle I know is completely addicted to gambling now he likes to spend quiet time for gambling. He is now like  At one point he lost all his money and property. Now he is neglected by his family. His family does not look at him as well as before. So we must always be careful of gambling. So that we can live together with our family.
That is the result of gambling addiction, which can use up all the things we have and we won't even realize that we don't have anything anymore. A person who gambles too often can experience gambling addiction, especially if he cannot control himself while gambling and does not have the awareness to reduce his gambling activities. We have probably seen the impact experienced by someone who gambles frequently, so we should not experience it and must be able to prevent this. If someone is addicted to gambling, it can disrupt their relationships with other family members so we must be able to prevent gambling addiction.

I would guess that owners and their family members not being allowed to gamble at their own casino would not be on their TOS but on the law itself.

As in the case of state lotteries it is directly stated that those that are employees that take part on organizing the lottery cannot participate by buying lottery tickets for themselves or their families, since if this was allowed then there will be a temptation that will be too high to manipulate the results on their favor, and I would guess a similar regulation must be in place when it comes to private casinos.
In the case of the lottery, there are regulations that the owner, his family members and employees are not allowed to buy the lottery. They can buy lottery in other places so they don't manipulate the lottery results. But we don't know about other gambling games. Maybe they still gamble at the casino too Grin

But as a casino owner, your focus should no longer be on gambling but on making money from your business. Casinos are places of business that can provide a lot of profits, especially if the casinos have developed and become increasingly popular.
2243  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Two Carreer skill benefit of gambling on: November 22, 2023, 06:12:52 AM
Maybe another benefit of gambling is that you can train discipline, train yourself to manage your finances and train yourself to control yourself so you don't gamble excessively. But unfortunately, behind the benefits of gambling, there is a temptation for people who can't practice everything and they are eager to get more money than they have won.

This makes gambling not a place for these trainings because many people fail to train them. However, some people manage to have all the things needed to gamble so that they are not tempted or influenced to continue gambling, especially if they feel they have had enough of gambling.
2244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A tip for staying resposible while gambling. on: November 22, 2023, 05:49:32 AM
While gambling some people gamble with small amounts which is not very important for them, but for those who are new to gambling and not able to control themselves or play with something reasonable amount.
So I have a tip for them you can stick a real paper money note in front of your monitor which will remind you that money is hard to earn and play responsibly or don't play with big amounts.
the note will remind every time that how you earned that money, and if you are controlled and this tip is not very important for you them you can ignore it, but i found this helpful.
In gambling, there is no ricks even if you take a large amount for those who are professional and experienced users. Even though they carry a large amount of budget, they adopt a special strategy in gambling so that their wallet never reaches zero balance. But those who are new gamblers, if they adopt special tips and if they take to a large amount, they will not be able to take any risk management, so their balance will become zero at some point. In this case, the small users must be given some pre-planned gambling conditions and resolutions if they follow them, the risk can be reduced to some extent.
However, managing the amount of money is the task of each gambler so that they do not lose more money in gambling. However, novice gamblers don't seem to understand this and instead try to win more wins, which will require even more money. They really have to be able to manage their money when gambling so that the balance in their account is not immediately spent on gambling that day. By managing their money, they can leave or divide their money for several days so that they don't need to deposit another amount of money on another day when they want to gamble again.
2245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You At Any Point In Time Blame Who Taught Or Led You To Gambling? on: November 22, 2023, 05:22:16 AM
I'll tell him jokingly so he doesn't feel hurt because he invited me to gamble. This is so that it doesn't have an impact on our friendship, where if we blame our friend too much for introducing us to gambling, it could cause the friendship to break down. But if I have experienced losing from gambling and I hate myself if I lose, I will try not to gamble too often. I still gamble but try to reduce my gambling activities so that I don't lose too often. We also shouldn't blame him for doing that because maybe at that time, he was just inviting us to have fun by gambling. We were actually wrong because we followed what he said, so we should introspect and improve ourselves.
2246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would You Crowdfund for a Gambler Who Has Gambled Irresponsibly? on: November 22, 2023, 05:00:14 AM
No. This will only make gamblers feel that they will be helped to meet their living needs while they can still gamble as usual. They may be even more irresponsible in their gambling because they are calm to see that there is crowdfunding that will help them. But if crowdfunding is intended to help problem gamblers cure gambling addiction, for example, maybe crowdfunding can work well. Maybe there are still people who care about others, especially those who experience gambling addiction problems, so from crowdfunding, they can use the funds to help the healing process of people who are addicted to gambling.
2247  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler's family action. on: November 22, 2023, 04:38:07 AM
Indeed, this is an act that is not very wise in giving a firm stance so that family member do not gamble again. As family members, it is true that we must have sympathy and help family members who are involved in compulsive gambling, but if the sibling who gambles has no intention of to stoped gambling, he will continue to do it secretly until no one in his family knows about his activities. And if he has been gambling secretly, we all know that this will pose a greater risk if the family only knows that gambling is like that, let alone openly keep quiet? It will definitely be even more dangerous as family members should give advice and accompany him, not pressure him, forcing him to immediately stop by force.
Maybe they really need firm action so they can suppress their disturbing gambling habits. There are many other reasons why family members have to do extreme things, in our opinion, because the gambler or his family members can no longer control their gambling. If we don't take firm action, the gambler won't get any warning, even from his friends, because maybe his friends don't care about what happens next. But I agree with advising the gambler to abandon his gambling activities because it has caused him a lot of problems while he is gambling. The gambler may need someone who can understand the circumstances that make him choose to gamble rather than do other things. If they can make the gambler aware of various approaches, the gambler will not feel forced to abandon gambling.
2248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The love in football on: November 22, 2023, 04:12:19 AM
That's because football is a very popular sport in many countries, so people who didn't like football before have really liked it and are crazy about it. Many children also like playing soccer and they continue to play it until they grow up. In fact, they watch every football match that is broadcast on television or social media such as YouTube.

They try to get to know who the soccer players are so they can choose them as their favorite players. This is what makes football very popular for people. Football brings people together to join and watch the game. It doesn't matter if they are different and come from many countries or cities.
2249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When does the moment come when the gambler loses control? on: November 22, 2023, 03:52:25 AM
Chasing defeat is what makes it difficult for them to control themselves so they become addicted because they always think that if they keep doing it they will definitely get the results they want, indeed the saying once said "effort will not betray the results" so they continue to think that if they keep trying to chase defeat they will achieve victory. They shouldn't have thoughts like that because the concept is different, we can enjoy gambling happily if we don't think about winning and losing so that we can be more controlled in carrying out gambling activities comfortably.
Chasing losses can make gamblers lose control because they will think about their losses and need to be able to recover their losses. It wasn't good for him because with his emotions rising, he wouldn't be able to think clearly but would only want to recover his losses. He actually knows that this could pose a risk of losing more money but he doesn't seem to care about it because, with his increasing emotions, he just wants to get the money he lost by continuing to gamble. That is why a person must continue to practice self-control so that he can restrain himself from wanting to recover his losses and accept his defeat. If he loses at gambling today, he can still gamble again on another day, and maybe he can be luckier. But to recover his losses it would only make him lose self-control.
2250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: November 22, 2023, 03:27:04 AM
It is true, greed will just appear without us asking, and when people are used to controlling themselves then they will not easily play every trick they see in the casino, but if gamblers are not balanced with strong self-control then greed will emerge in order to achieve the victory he wanted, so he would experience so much trouble.

It's true that for beginners and experienced gamblers, self-control is very important and we all have to try to maintain that control well, yes, even though there are many obstacles and temptations, this can prevent us from experiencing big losses in gambling. .
That's why before someone decides to gamble, he must realize how good his self-control is so that he doesn't spend a lot of money gambling. Unfortunately, there are still many who don't want to learn self-control, so they experience a lot of defeat. And even though they have experienced many defeats, it also doesn't make them realize that they need to learn self-control.

Beginner gamblers who have just entered the world of gambling should be able to see that self-control is an important factor that can prevent them from experiencing gambling problems. Without it, they will not be able to protect themselves while gambling and will be tempted by what they see while gambling. And with self-control, we can also avoid losses that might get bigger.
2251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 9 Years Before He finally claim his lotto rewards on: November 21, 2023, 02:58:00 PM
I will do the same as him and fight for that right to win, especially if there is evidence that confirms that I have the right to receive the winnings. And now that there is the internet, we can ask for support from people while showing the accurate evidence that we have. If they all support what we are doing, it doesn't seem like it will take long to get the winning money.

He deserved this winning, especially since he had fought for 9 years to resolve the case. Even though he has lost a lot from solving the case, he still has his winnings so he can start his life, and maybe he can even open his business with the winnings.
2252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: November 21, 2023, 02:40:17 PM
I don't think any gambler wants to copy bets and make the same bets for some time unless we are gamblers who really always win and there will be difficulty copying them because we are gambling in an online casino where there will be no other gamblers knowing our bets unless we share them ourselves.

Even if you place a bet with even the smallest minimum amount and use good analytical strategy, it will still never be successful as a source of income from gambling.
We know that gambling is full of uncertainty and we know that gambling provides risks with random luck, then what can be expected by making gambling a source of income.

If gambler can have the right approach to gambling then they will never be able to think about making gambling source of income because they realize there is no success in gambling except luck.
Meanwhile, are there any gamblers who can guarantee getting lucky? there is none and this must always be considered by every gambler.
There may be those who try to copy other people's bets after they see that person win, and they also want to feel the win. They really depend on people winning so they will try bettors who can win in many games. However, they may have difficulty finding the bettors because they have to monitor the bets they make. Especially if he is aiming for a big win, he also has to place a large bet too. But if he doesn't have analytical skills and only depends on other bettors, he may not be able to improve his analytical skills.

Yes, we will find it difficult to make gambling a source of income because many people have tried it but most of them can't get it. They actually lose more and more because many of them also lose control of themselves while betting. This is why we have to know the risks of gambling. We need to manage the risks so that they don't become big.

Gamblers who realize that gambling is not a source of income will not do so but will only use gambling as entertainment. They are better off looking for sources of income from other places so they can actually make money. They will only gamble if they really have free time because the purpose of gambling is just to have fun. No gambler can win in a row, but many gamblers experience losing streaks, so we should be more careful when gambling and control ourselves when gambling.

You notice it right even you can copy the actual bet but the size of the amount that will one of the factors where the owner of the pick would be different, plus those live games that he might take after placing the early bets, some of those gamblers always have time to watch and bet during the live game, knowing that there's chances that they need to adjust and they need to try recovering the possible loses that they will have to encounter.
Yes, different bet amounts will give different wins. And if he copies bettors who don't have good analytical skills, he can experience losses but it depends on how big the bet he placed. But when he loses and wants to recover from that loss, he may need to think for a moment whether it is worth doing or he needs to accept his loss because it was his mistake just to copy someone else's bet. He needs to realize that copying bets is fine but he needs to have the skills to analyze the game so that he doesn't pin his hopes of winning on other bettors.
2253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: November 21, 2023, 02:12:33 PM
Those which may like to enjoy some level of success when they gamble have no other option but to try skilled based games, and this is because as attractive as it can be to win in the games in which we rely on our luck completely, since we do not need to do anything in order to win, it is also true we have no control whatsoever over the outcomes we may get by choosing this route, meaning we have to discard it and choose the only option left over the table that allows us to have some control over our gambling outcomes.
If they try skill-based gambling games without having the skills to play them, they will have difficulty winning them. Even people who are skilled at playing them also don't have a big chance of winning. Maybe some people feel hopeless seeing that they can't win even a small amount of money and that is because their luck doesn't come when they gamble. He should be able to realize this after gambling for a while. When he realizes it, he should be able to stop gambling because if he continues gambling, he could experience a lot of losses, especially if he loses control of himself. Those who lose gambling will usually have the desire to recover their losses or at least be able to break even so that the losses are not too big. If it were easy, of course, many gamblers would have succeeded in getting it, but the reality is that the number of gamblers who lose is increasing.
2254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When does the moment come when the gambler loses control? on: November 21, 2023, 01:41:55 PM
The biggest addiction in gambling can occur when he experiences loss because, with that loss, he wants to recover his losses by continuing to gamble. If only he could think that continuing to gamble would not allow him to recover his losses and could actually result in greater losses. He must be able to overcome his disappointment so that he does not have the desire to continue gambling, which could result in even greater losses. But the reality is that there are still many people who rely on gambling to make money, even when they experience large losses. They still want to recover their losses and that makes them addicted to gambling.

Have you ever thought of giving back to the community if you ever had a successful gambling run? One of those punters on X, who usually wins large sums of money from betting, is giving out about 25 laptops to folks who cannot afford them, and he recently paid for someone's cybersecurity online course. Do you think this is something that you can do—give back to the community from your gambling runs?

Giving is from the heart. You don't necessary need to have all the money in the world before you learn how to give and it mustn't be when you have a big pay day in gambling. It's always good to look at people around you and extend a helping hand. Having said that, I'd to go take a look at his timeline and it seems he's an influencer and the whole philanthropic act was just to promote sportybet. For that reason, I've my doubts if he really won the bet as this could be staged to promote the gambling site.
I agree with you because giving something to others can be done before we can have something. We can give what we have, especially to people who really need it. But if we can win a lot of money from gambling and it is a lot of money, we can donate some money to those in need, especially to those who cannot meet their daily needs. That will definitely please them because we have helped them to survive and they can continue their lives well. It all depends on our heart to give something to other people and we want to give something, even if it's not much.
2256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I learnt from a crackhead about gambling on: November 21, 2023, 12:56:02 PM
I think it is wrong to generalize gambling addicts and drug addicts just compare which can be more responsible. I think gambling have the same level of addiction effect to players just as much as drugs can do. Maybe we just met different people who handls their habits differently. I dont know any gambling addict or drug addict who are thankful of their situation, anyone would regret it. Im glad that the man the man OP mentioned found a way to change his life and his experience serves as a  reminder of the challenges many face with addiction.
Any addiction will definitely have a negative effect on the mind and health. Even though the effects will definitely be different, we will still feel different effects. We don't know which is more dangerous, gambling addiction or drug addiction, because we try to avoid all addictions, especially gambling addiction. Moreover, we often gamble so there is a possibility that we may experience a gambling addiction. But if an addict can cure himself, that is something that needs to be appreciated because to be able to heal himself requires a lot of hard work and belief that he can heal himself.
2257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often is your luck in gambling? on: November 21, 2023, 12:33:37 PM
I think that luck goes out of the window when you gamble long enough, because it allows you to make sure that you are dealing with something that could turn it all around, and you should be careful about it. I personally believe that the best thing to do regarding gambling would be calculations, if you make calculations that are in regards to this, then we are going to end up with something that could change it all together.

I realize now that if you could gamble for long enough time, the house edge will be the result, that is what you are getting every single time. Surely, you are not getting that with just a small amount of bet, but if you gamble for years, and bet thousands of times, you are going to end up losing, that is a mathematical truth that can't be changed. The casinos are telling you this, they are not hiding that fact, and the more people gamble at their casino, the more they will earn. This is why they make wagering competitions.
If we gamble for long enough, we have the possibility of experiencing increased emotions and this will affect our gambling game, which it can cause us to lose more money. We must be able to control ourselves by managing the amount of money for gambling and even though we only use small bets, if we don't understand when to stop gambling, we are at risk of losing a lot of money. It will be even greater if we cannot stop gambling games because of the pleasure we get from gambling games.

If we have been gambling for a long time but never or rarely get big wins, we have lost a lot of money in gambling games so we have to think about what we are really looking for in gambling. If we still want to have fun, we can continue gambling. If we feel that it is just a waste of money, especially if we never win big, we should immediately decide to reduce our gambling activities or even stop gambling. And the casino will not force you to continue gambling, especially if you have experienced repeated losing streaks. But because of our greed or the desire to recover losses, we return to gambling another day.
2258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: November 21, 2023, 12:10:16 PM
Yes of course, as in the business field, someone will not be able to achieve success if they never experience failure first at the beginning, none other than because it is the failure that they will make a lesson so that in the future they do not fall into the same hole, that's just an example and still I will not associate gambling with other fields such as business because in gambling there is absolutely no element of achieving success because everything goes randomly and always cannot be predicted. Yes, the only problem for beginners is their very limited experience, and maybe that's natural because they are beginners who certainly don't know too much or haven't experienced many things that are there.

But on the other hand it cannot be used as a complete excuse for them, because obviously on the other hand they can learn from other people's experiences such as seeing the downturn experienced by addicts, I understand that all gamblers do not want to experience a lot of defeat problems, especially in large quantities, therefore, especially for beginners, there is one way they can do it, namely by learning from the experiences of professional people, they are still fine and you also have to be able to do it like them if you want to survive and be fine. In terms of luck, novice gamblers can be luckier than professionals or vice versa, no one knows.
But unfortunately, we are in gambling where the chances of success will be small compared to if we try from our business or job. We will only experience bigger failures and the harder we try, we probably won't be able to last longer at gambling because our losses will also be bigger. As gamblers, we should learn not to gamble excessively because it will only make us lose too much without being able to recover the losses. We can gain experience from studying other people's experiences or from what we have experienced so that we don't have to experience as many defeats as other people. We are the ones who have to limit the number of losses and be able to stop gambling before things change for the worse. There is still a chance for us to gamble another day so we don't need to force ourselves to continue gambling.

All gamblers definitely don't want to experience the downturn that many gamblers have experienced. If they can't control themselves, that's what will come to them and ultimately take all their money without any remainder. They must understand that defeat is something they will experience more often than victory, so they must be able to reduce the number of losses. And if they can learn from other people's experiences, it can definitely increase their knowledge about what to do when gambling and how to reduce the number of losses. As they train themselves to control themselves more and more, they don't worry about losing a lot of money because they already have signs that will warn them to stop gambling immediately.
2259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: November 21, 2023, 11:49:14 AM
Yes, but every bet tries to throw us off balance, and the more we make them, the more it shakes us up. Ultimately, the player may start betting even without looking at the teams that will play, just to win back. Although before the first bet he just wanted to have a good time without thinking about making a lot of money. Therefore, the main thing is to maintain balance and not bet too often. I prefer to bet very rarely and small bets on my favorite teams and get additional interest in the match, because I came not for money, but for pleasure.
Experiencing loss can disturb his balance because, at that time, he can think about recovering his losses by placing bets in other gambling games. It was because he couldn't accept his loss that his emotions were triggered and he finally decided to place another bet. We have to realize that we gamble only for fun in our spare time and not to make money like other people do because we won't be able to get that money easily. Moreover, there is the possibility of experiencing a lot of losses that can actually happen if we cannot protect ourselves while gambling. Many people have actually ended up losing all their money because their emotions increased during gambling, which made them experience losing all their money.
2260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: November 21, 2023, 11:26:45 AM
Well, as long as it is something beneficial for every player  , it is that they can Have good control of everything, to reach this level the complete expectations of total awareness must be met, for this you must have what I say maturity, because maturity is what Thinking that it will be the Best option to accept the designs that may be had within a casino is not simple, because every time you enter a casino every person will Always emphasize so that you can win and have favorable Results , that It is what we are always looking for, but as I said before , so that there is no Risk , it is best to put the money that you are willing to lose in the money, money that is not going to affect the daily life of the player so that You can have a good experience in the casino, however we are players who will always be with the expectation to be able to have more winning Opportunities with more Flexibility.

It has been shown that people who enter gambling without any kind of Knowledge about the casino and are given only to luck can Happen two things, that they win a lot or that they can lose everything or almost Everything , because the adrenaline in the casino is something that It manifests itself at once, because and the impulses and everything it means to have emotions, so for this what you should have is caution, moderation and a lot of knowledge about how to spend and how to play in a casino intelligently, for all this it always comes out self-control, and it is not easy, I personally always emphasize the first rule, I already have the balance, I am discouraged from losing, it does not matter if the person goes crazy , play it , just respect that once the money available is lost to play for session, so don't make more deposits, or something like that, because that's when we start to lose control and go against many of our rules and it has been shown that when the rules are broken in the Game or in trading , the Person is not doing Well.
Only self-control can save us from many defeats, and learning this self-control really takes time. We can practice it from day to day until we have good self-control. In gambling, this control will be able to stop us from spending too much money because we are aware that in gambling, we will find it difficult to win any amount of money. Even if we can win, the amount of money we get will probably not be as big as the amount we have lost, so we have to realize that we can only use gambling as entertainment. In gambling, there are also risks that all gamblers will face, no matter if they are pro gamblers or beginner gamblers. But this risk can be managed well with self-control so that we can reduce the risk of big losses so that we can enjoy gambling as we should. And if you can win from gambling, you should immediately realize that it is time for you to quit gambling so that you don't try to chase bigger wins. It's better for you to feel like you've had enough gambling than to take the risk of losing more money.

People who enter a casino without preparation will only run the risk of losing more money because they cannot control themselves while gambling. They also cannot resist the temptation to continue gambling. Hence, they forget that their goal in gambling is actually just to get entertainment and must immediately stop gambling once they feel like they have had enough. But the only thing that is there is that they will lose control of themselves as their emotions increase, especially if they experience a losing streak. Experiencing consecutive losses can trigger them to try to recover their losses by depositing more money, but that only sometimes goes according to their wishes because often, they end up losing more and more. When they win, they also cannot immediately stop gambling because there is a temptation that tells them to continue gambling. After all, they have the opportunity to win more. But that's just a dream because in reality, they will lose even more.
