Do this when you find yourself gambling irresponsibly

[rachael9385]

In the gambling the objective of almost 75% of Gambler is that they are going to make money through their gambling functions or gambling activities not considering the factor of losing in gambling knowing that the gambling is all about risk you can equally win and you can equally lose at same time, so I believe but that is one of the things that makes gambling to be unpredictable, so if you don't want to gamble responsibly, it depends on your mindset, and if you wants to gamble irresponsibly it also been determined by you objective, knowing that gambling all about risk.

You are absolutely right, most gamblers don't think about the possibility of losing, they assume that every bet they place would be successful, this is why they always end up getting disappointed when they lose because they expect too much from it. Just like what you said gambling is all about risk, this means that nothing is guaranteed. Any amount of money that leaves your bank account and goes into your bet account might be lost, having this type of mindset make a more realistic gambler it's better than being delusional.

There are a lot of people who do not gamble responsibly, some of them don't intend to do that but they just get lost in the process. Some try to control themselves but still finds themselves using funds that are meant for important things like school fees, house rent and so on.
If you are one of these people, here is a way that can help you be in control

A: set a limits; this simply means that you should budget a certain amount of funds for gambling. For instance, if you intend to gamble weekly, daily or monthly, set a limit of how much you want to gamble with and make sure you do not exceed that limit. That's why most casino games has the feature of setting limits.

B: Be disciplined; the above example won't be possible if you are not disciplined or rather when you do not have self control. Be mentally smart when gambling so you don't get carried away.

C: Remove the mindset that gambling will make you rich overnight; of course many people have made huge fortune from gambling but do you know how much these people spent to win such huge profit? Bet with what you can afford to lose and also bet according to your capacity.

D: Don't use money meant for important things like your rent or school fees to gamble. Be very conscious of this at all time.

You all can add more, let's learn .

A: set a limits;

I say this to be the most important thing that you do set into yourself on which you do need up to set up limits so that you wont be putting up yourself into such tough situation or condition just because you've been that having that lose of control at the moment that you do gamble. Lets say that these are things arent only that applicable on gambling but also in other things as well. The only issue on here when dealing up with gambling is that dealing up too much of it will be leading into financial disaster on which we know that its really that hard to make out some recovery at the moment that the damage has already been done.
The only issue on here is that these are just that too easy to say but when you are already on such condition then this is where it do really testing out your discipline and control towards your mind because usually this is the main reason on why people do really failed up on doing such act because of that very common factor on which is to have that love for money and thats what makes it hard for you to control into.

You are absolutely right, most gamblers don't think about the possibility of losing, they assume that every bet they place would be successful, this is why they always end up getting disappointed when they lose because they expect too much from it. Just like what you said gambling is all about risk, this means that nothing is guaranteed. Any amount of money that leaves your bank account and goes into your bet account might be lost, having this type of mindset make a more realistic gambler it's better than being delusional.

They wont care at first just because there are those times or moments that you do become that too confident that you can be able to win up or having that luck or advantage.
On the moment that they've seen that their bankroll had been blown up, then this is the time that they will be having that regret and trying out to make those changes afterwards.
Usually people do changed up once they do able to experience for themselves about these unfortunate conditions on which they should have done this earlier to avoid up such situation.
There are just that those moments that we've become that too confident on which this do leads up into disaster.

You're right setting a limits do well to help you be able to manage your bankroll and as well gamble responsibly, often times gamblers don't take advantage of this and keep going off their limits. All of this points that you've highlighted so far will go a long way in maintaining a balance gambling state but it all depends on the gambler which involves them having self control over themselves each time they tend to gamble, so if they can observe this points I'm sure they'll have an addiction and regrets free gambling experience.

A gambler not having self control over his gambling habit will make another deposit when he or she loses the previous money that's deposited into the betting account. Actually it's kinda easy to set a limit towards gamble cause of bankroll management, but the issues there is if the gambler might be able to maintain that status. Actually a gambler that's not discipline towards gamble will eventually become addicts as time goes on.

Those who gamble irresponsibly will never follow all these things, they will always gamble irresponsibly. But for an irresponsible gambler, it is better to follow all the tips you mentioned. If one day an irresponsible gambler follows all these tips, then I think that person will come out of gambling addiction and will be able to protect himself. According to my knowledge and experience, I have seen many people who use all their money for gambling. I have seen them use all the money they earn in a month for gambling, a kind of greed is created in their mind which creates an emotion to use everything in their gambling. So I would like to add here that more than 1% to 5% of the income can never be used for gambling.

You can minimize risk though by removing yourself from games that you know very well over the long run don't stand a chance like roulette, slot machines or other luck related games. If you put your effort and focus into poker or sport betting for example, not saying that you are going to win in the long run because that is impossible though you can very well minimize risk of losing a lot, minimize risk of addiction and also adding some adrenaline to the games you watch if you bet on sports, this way your life balance is not at risk, I know first hand that slot machines can brutally put your life balance at risk, they can make you feel like is miserable when in fact it isn't, as long as we shift our focus to only play games where we also have an "edge" we should avoid gambling irresponsibly.

I think most of these people can be saved. Responsibility is something that always exists but rarely get looked up when someone is busy being selfish or greedy. Once you get those vices out you can clearly see how the family needs your help and where you can contribute for the good.

Very aptly put, really wise words indeed. Family is a great motivation to get rid of any reckless steps in our life. Once a person starts to become irresponsible and wants to prevent more of this in the future, then it is the right time to think about your loved ones. Thinking about family will help to overcome selfishness. But what to do with greed? Personally for me, the question is open, I have not coped with it. 

This might seem unrealistic goal to reach for currently addicted players but can be achieved slowly.

It depends on people themselves, whether they are satisfied with irresponsible game or not. There are people who perhaps due to their upbringing or lack thereof cannot be motivated by the same favorable attitude towards their family. To them, close relatives may be just people and nothing more. Then they will have to look for another motivation if they are not satisfied with irresponsible gambling.

The reality is if you are playing luck-based games, it means, you are more on the losing side. But yes, if you dedicate yourself in poker or sportsbetting where skills and knowledge can give an edge in winning, you have better chance of getting some profits in gambling. Very few aspect of gambling have an edge when it comes to winning. But of course, it depends on the gambler if he is comfortable dealing with these types of gambling.
At the end of the day, you will be the one who can determine about your financial capability in gambling. So let go of the games that you believe can easily drain your budget. And maybe focus more on the games that you have better chance of winning. But if you just want entertainment, you can of course, just head to casino games but use your spare funds for you not to despair these games.

I agree that games that requires knowledge can maximize our chance so it's a good choice compared to playing luck based games. However, it is still advisable to not have high hopes. Because luck is a major factor to win in gambling. Thus regardless of what we play, it has a vital role in order to win. So always play in moderation, set a limit on how much money to spend and don't be greedy. It's certainly important to follow the basic rule as a gambler.

The thought of making ourselves rich overnight is very common in our population. That's why the gamblers are getting younger than ever based on the observation that many does. But the impact to each life is so bad to the point that many of our countrymen does a lot of bad things for them to gamble. They have no control over themselves and there is no way in stopping them until something goes wrong. Being irresponsible is setting them as an example that bad things will come if we're not going to take into account what we do. With the hopes of being rich so quickly, we're drowning and losing quickly instead.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

One thing people should stop also is trying to recover all the money they have lost in gambling because the more you try to recover the more you lose.

This is the root cause of so many people's addiction, they have literally forgotten that gambling is based on luck and not competition. Any body that loves to chase losses always will likely become addicted on the long run because the losses they are chasing will keep luring them to continue gambling and they will be thinking that they can win their losses back. If not that am not disciplined, I would have become addicted but I just realized on time that no matter how to try, you can not beat the casino.

C: Remove the mindset that gambling will make you rich overnight; of course many people have made huge fortune from gambling but do you know how much these people spent to win such huge profit? Bet with what you can afford to lose and also bet according to your capacity.

Gambling not only can't make you rich overnight, but it can't make you rich either. If you see someone who can win a life-changing amount, it doesn't mean that all gamblers will experience it, the percentage that can get it is very small. If you want to gamble, gamble normally, not because you want to get rich, because you will be disappointed and become unable to control yourself, and never be tempted by what other gamblers get, because winning at gambling is not like improving skills where other people can do it and you can too.

Yes, but most people don't get it, even though they know the risks involved. They also know that gambling is not something that can help you make a lot of money because it's dependent on luck. One can't be lucky all the time, if you are lucky today, you are not going to be lucky tomorrow, so even if you manage to win $50 today, you might lose $100 tomorrow, and even if you don't lose more, you are at least going to lose what you had won earlier, so it's going to be even again and you won't have any profits.

In gambling, only those who play with their minds and emotions in control might be able to get some profit eventually because they don't get emotional once they start losing and if you can keep your nerves under control, you might end up stopping the session when you still have some profit left before you lose it all along with your initial deposit. Thus, one needs nerves of steels of steels to get profits from gambling, and it's just profit, not getting rich or anything like that.

But what to do with greed? Personally for me, the question is open, I have not coped with it.

You have to first accept that being greedy is normal, we are all greedy but we have to make it a habit to always question ourselves when we get greedy. Do we really need to spend 200$ on that new iPhone or can we continue with the 30$ android we already have because the new one does not do anything new. Start thinking like that and your attraction towards spending money will limit.

This does not mean that you have to be a miser, you spend for what you need. Eventually your needs will become more clear from the clouds of capitalism that companies have created for you.

Then gambling no longer becomes a problem because you now can spend enough through your earnings and still be happy with it.

Just to add what you have discussed, people need to set expectations when they gamble. The problem also arises when most gamblers think that they could hit the jackpot daily or win some huge money every time they gamble. Sure, there may be moments where you can double, triple, or even quadruple your money in a single day. But always remember that the odds are always split- you can either win or lose everything in the process.

In order to harmonize this kind of mindset vs the reality of gambling, always enter this activity with a degree of expectation. Not everyday you would win the jackpot or double your money; and not everyday you would lose all your money in the process.
