Survey: Understanding Gamblers and Their Feelings

[Peanutswar]

There are a lot of players on the forum and it's always interesting to understand each other's motivations, which can sometimes be surprising and unexpected ...

When in playing gambling its a rollercoaster of emotions when the times your bet are in a crucial times but they live the entertainment. When in playing gambling I do always seeking for the fun of entertainment if I lose its part of the bets if I win good because I gain extra money. So Entertainment and money makes satisfies more to the player upon playing gambling. Now people getting too much addicted because they taking gambling seriously well cant deny others use this as their source of income so they get frustrated once they didn't win a large amount or even take back their losses.

In my view there isn't any man who would not dream about money, thus my priority in gambling is focused ^{first and foremost} on money which have the potential to  guarantee all the rest mentioned ^{and even not mentioned} in this poll. The more money I can get from gambling the better but the problem here ^{at least for me} not only making them but also keeping them in line with the tax regulation in my country.

The problem is they can not always make money from gambling instead losing their money in a short time. Gamblers must understand that they will difficult to win from gambling and needs to use gambling for have fun and will not trying to win because that will need unknown amount of money. If they can use gambling to pass their spare time with limit money and time, they will not trying to spend more money because that can makes them lose money money. That is what they must prevent from gambling so they will use gambling for a place to get entertainment and enjoy the gambling games.

Money is the bottomline for most gamblers. Who wouldn't want money after placing a bet? Because that's mainly the driving force of gamblers.

Some set of gamblers are little less bothered everytime they lose; personally, I don't even go back to 'em bad tickets to see why or what game spoilt them..

When they lose they already have another strategy and of course their money is still quite a lot to play.
Professional gambling players are not the same as those of us who are still very new to gambling and continue to expect big profits with minimal capital.

If you don't want to go back on that bad ticket, of course it's an option.
But you won't know what really happens if you don't try it firsthand

For some gambler, it's a wise choice not to go back to games that was not successful because if they do go back to the ticket, it probably would spoil their mind, that's why they avoid to revisit the ticket, so that they can quickly move on. For me, if I lost my bet, I would definitely check to see the team that caused me lose the bet and after which, I don't revisit it again or remind myself about it because any time I do, I remind me of the money I would have won if the game was successful.

Maybe that team will be the team you blacklist or maybe you can see how they manage their strategy.
Of course, the strategy used by each team will determine whether they can excel or not and also the performance of each player will have an effect.

and everything else is based on luck alone, because every bet will not be predicted correctly completely,

Blacklisting a team simply because they made you lose a bet today isnt a good idea or something to do, for the same team can be a reason why you win your bet another day and even several other days to come if you are patient, take for example, I choosed Arsenal as my favorite football club and I still remember very well that back in the days, the very first 3 or 4 bets i placed on Arsenal to win a match ended in a loss, and after this experience, when next Arsenal was playing against another team, I deliberately decided to bet for the other team to win, and unfortunately, Arsenal ended up winning that match and again, I lost my money, courtesy of Arsenal, that made me very angry to the point I almost decided to stop seeing Arsenal as my favorite club, but I simply moved on afterwards.

Long story short is that from back then to today, I've also won several bets with the help of the same Arsenal, either directly or indirectly, directly in the sense that I bet on them and they win; I win, and indirectly in the sense that I bet on their other club they are playing against, and Arsenal end up losing the game, their opponent I betted for wins; I win as well.

So, the fact you lost a bet by the underperformance of a team doesn't not mean that loss will continue so forever, there are times they may be the reason you win your bet also, so no need to blacklist.

Totally depends into someones approach when it comes to this on which whether they would really be that considering out to look at on the reasons on why they have lost such bet then it will really be that just that up to you because there are those people who doesnt really like on getting back once they will really be able to commit out such loses on which they dont really want to experience it out again but for those who are open minded and having that curiosity on why they have lost then it will really be that normal that they will be trying out bet up on the same choice or bets that resulted into a loss on which i could say that this what makes a gambler or bettor that even more wiser into their future bets. Well, there's no guarantee that you can be able to make out some assurance that your next bets will really be a win but at least you have done something.

The main thing that you should put up in mind is that there's no assurance that you can win up on a bet no matter how good your analysis would be and this is why its better that you dont have that mindset about expecting some thing 100% sure win on which we know that this cant really be that possible. You should gamle on the amount on what you can afford to lose so that you wont be finding yourself that being that too emotional.

For the moment, the ultimate goal is to play to earn money and still feel a bit of adrenalin. Is the level of adrenalin the same no matter how much you win? Does losing large sums of money affect you a lot?

Personally, I always lose at gambling, while strangely enough I'm generally lucky at everything else. It's very surprising.

It's bigger when I big win and it's like a normal thing whenever I just win little. And it's more intense when I am losing big too so it's opposed to how I feel after winning and losing.

Personally, I always lose at gambling, while strangely enough I'm generally lucky at everything else. It's very surprising.

I think that's fair and fate is giving you that so that you won't be disappointed with the losses that you're making with your bets. If you're lucky with everything else and then you've also won in life.

My major motivation for gambling is definitely to win money as I see gambling as means of earning passive income. However, I'm not desperate to win that is why I'm able to control my gambling in terms of how much of my income I can put into gambling and the ability to stop for the session of day when I have reach my limits which I usually determine before getting started. I don't see gambling as a means of catching fun because there are many things that can be fun to me that will not require me putting my money.
