is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life?

[pooya87]

Gambling is gambling.  don't try to risk too much  , play small, have fun and then you can increase your bet when you are more confident or in profit

its the worst strategy ever, as it always leads to loosing all money, its better to not gamble at all

you should always gamble with your extra money, i mean the money that you don't need and if you lose that amount you don't regret it. look at it as spending money for fun.
then the time that you actually win, is going to be huge for you. but the other times that you lose, you didn't lose all your life on gambling.

people who risking their money bigger will receive bigger money too, so if you decide to risking small money it well takes no effect and would be better don't touch any gamble games. Because gamble is about it all.
And then when you increase the bet while in confident or profit situation I believe you will burn all your money.

Bigger the risk, better the reward....or the fall!!! That´s obvious!

I googled it for you & i got this URL, from HelpGuide.org:

Warning Signs and How to Get Help

A quote from the linked article:

One way to stop yourself from problem gambling is to analyze what is needed for gambling to occur, work on removing these elements from your life and replace them with healthier choices. The four elements needed for problem gambling to continue are:

A decision: Before gambling occurs, the decision to gamble has been made. If you have an urge to gamble: stop what you are doing and call someone, think about the consequences to your actions, tell yourself to stop thinking about gambling, and find something else to do immediately.
Money: Gambling cannot occur without money. Get rid of your credit cards, let someone else be in charge of your money, have the bank make automatic payments for you, and keep a limited amount of cash on you at all times.
Time: Gambling cannot occur if you don’t have the time. Schedule enjoyable recreational time for yourself that has nothing to do with gambling, find time for relaxation, and plan outings with your family.
A game: Without a game or activity to bet on there is no opportunity to gamble. Don’t put yourself in tempting environments or locations. Tell the gambling establishments you frequent that you have a gambling problem and ask them to restrict you from betting at their casinos and establishments. Block online gambling sites on your computer.

Hope it may help you overcome your gambling addiction!

thats the sort of mindset that get people addicted, and broke; think of what the chances are at hitting the jackpot on the slots in a casino, then consider how many times you'll actually play the slots and with what wager; the chance of becoming rich from gambling is extremely low, and the people who are lucky enough are very, very few.

sounds like unfair if you say in the end the casino owners guaranteed win, nobody will gamble .
its just the matter of time, if you playing continously i'll make sure you will busted.
time management required to make steady income in gamble.

the casinos are fair, but the games are designed to give the casinos an advantage in the long run. This is seen as the house edge in the bitcoin casinos we are all familiar with; but lets compare it to real life: blackjack tables at winstar casinos have a 0.50 USD charge to play a hand. over the long run, even if the tables are breakeven, the casinos will have made money from the play fees.

[irfan_pak10]

casinos will always get profit no matter they losing game, because they have fees profit in every single game played. its in real life dude.
how about casinos online gamble? the house edge?provably fair?
have you ever heard bookie got bankruptcy?
everything have been regulated, we just need the right time to start gamble and the right time to cash it out. and repeat.
feel the fixed life by gamble!

I cant follow what youre trying to say here; my point is that casinos, online or RL, are designed to make the owners money in the long run. secondly, it is rare for someone's life to be "fixed" by gambling; first off, why would someone be gambling if they need to fix their life?

we just need the right time to start gamble and the right time to cash it out. and repeat.

the problem is, people always want to keep winning, and when we start losing, we try to recover our losses, end end up digging ourselves further into the pit. "cashing out" is very much easier said than done.

House edge is there to ensure the house will be floating on average profit of the house edge.To be honest, the world is never a fair place to begin with so whats the fuss about it? Simply dont gamble if you dont want to make a casino owner richer but apparantly there will be always a gambler. People make a gambling site to "win" not to give away because they are not a charity site.

its just the matter of time, if you playing continously i'll make sure you will busted.

Not always and there are plenty of people that is still floating with 100 BTC profit in PrimeDice and you do see them gamble there daily. This is a fallacy to believe that everyone will bust eventually. Truth is, the house will always gain profit eventually in the longer run which you can check at every site around here because most of them are having profit on average of their house edge (more than house edge)

time management required to make steady income in gamble.

Time management? perhaps it is much like financial management, time has nothing to do with gambling

you said "lets compare it to real life: blackjack tables at winstar casinos have a 0.50 USD charge to play a hand. over the long run, even if the tables are breakeven, the casinos will have made money from the play fees."
and then i compare it by ask for how about casinos online gamble? what are they charge? charged by the house edge? casinos online winning is the house edge?
so we have a chance to win it everyday, as long as you have a financial management.
well, mentation each people is different. i think people gambling to reach the final goal, fixes life!
and you think another

the problem is, people always want to keep winning, and when we start losing, we try to recover our losses, end end up digging ourselves further into the pit. "cashing out" is very much easier said than done.

this is where the financial management have a role, you will just throw your money without financial management.
