Enemies of gambling:
Greed, Fear and Hope

Gamblers have to control emotions to avoid losing control in difficult situations .You should have set withdrawal limit after every winning streak.Whenever you withdraw that amount from site  turn off pc and go away.
 

We can't say that we could avoid to lose in gambling if we do have control on it, it should be for us not to lose too much on it, but if we are going to overcome this greed, then I could say that we could earn more because instead that we are going lose it we are going to withdraw it and save it in our wallet or we could use it to buy things that we do want or need.

with controlling our greed, we can avoid to not loss too much in gambling, beside that we can manage our money while we are in gambling games with placing the amount we want as our bets. but be careful, sometimes we can not control our greed when we see we can winning the games with easily and its really attracting us to continue to playing the games.

Sometimes even we don't want to be greedy there are instances that it just shows up especially when wede to thrilled in playing or really wants to win back our loses. So we need to be responsible enough and stick to our words to not betray ourselves.

Winning money is a drug as it basically triggers the same centre of your brain as when you do cocaine. For good and for bad humans are greedy by nature, we wan't more for ourselves and for our loved ones and whoever says they are happy the way things are right now is either lying or economically independet. Although rich people usually want more as well.

I'd say that trying to control greed when you are gambling will always prove to be near impossible. You can always take profits and sometimes you can accept losses but something in the back of your head will keep trying to trigger you to play more, to win more.

One thing I started doing to try and check myself was to write down everytime I make a deposit. How much I deposited, how much I gambled during that session and how much I ended up with. I can't say that this will help everyone but it did help me a lot.

You can't easily control it, that's one of the very fundamental things in gambling, if you don't have a very strong personality, you end up getting addicted + gambling without the ability to stop during the process, setting limits does help, but only if you can force yourself to follow them.

You can't control your greed. No one can. If they tell you they can they are simply lying. Gambling is supposed to be an entertaining activity and not a source of income. Consider any positive balance 'lost' unless you withdraw it first.

In short - play for fun and don't chase goals. Any profit at the end of the day/week/month is just a bonus. Good luck.
It's true you cannot fully control your greed, it needs a lots of discipline. But as what he said gambling is just for fun, it is not a source of income. If you lose then don't play anymore on that day, it might lead you to addiction. My advice,  gambling for fun just weekly not everyday it will lose all your money, gambling is risky be wise.

and specially when you are new in gambling, because normally we can see people who do not have experience in gambling the mostly lose money and that is because they have no such good idea about gambling and therefore they do not compromise on small winning or even losing ant therefore continue losing money expecting to will and return the losing money.

The only method is through self-restraining and setting limits to yourself on gambling, both winning money and losing money, Enforcing these limits would still need you to have a strong personality and never exceeding the limits you, yourself set.

I don't think you can control greed on your own. I would suggest bringing someone with you when you gentle or if it's online have someone watch over your shoulder and give you advice. Maybe they can stop you from betting too wildly. Though there is always the flip side and you win this wild bets. It's very hard to know what to do.

One question is who command yourself?  Who decide for yourself?  Who thinks for yourelf?  And who wants to control greed?  I do not believe that you need someone to control your greed.  All the decision are made by you.  People have only influence to us if we allow them, else we do not care.  So the power to control our greed is in our own hands.  It is a matter of decision, determination and discipline.  If you can decide to not be greedy, determine to do it and discipline yourself and stick to it then I believe you can control your greed on gambling.

The strong personality is the key always.
But when people are into rushing for making their life's biggest opportunity of making easy money, we could never expect them maintaining their strong will. Your self control will challenge you and most of the time people are forgetting their resolutions and just obeying the order of their emotions.

It will be most likely be forgotten by most people or gambler on which their limitation have been put aside already when they are already playing gambling unlike on the times he didnt play he would definitely say that he has control but once hes on the field or playground they will surely forgot those words and let their emotions and aims control them in the end.

It really depends on the person. For me, I had a bad case of chasing losses, but since I realized that I could chase no more, I stopped depositing and had discipline not to deposit more than what I can afford to lose, which is small by the way like around 1mbtc. That's my rule nowadays, so I don't get upset for losing so much money to gambling.

Temptation will always test us and we could never promise ourselves that we will win over this. There will be times that we can’t resist playing because gambling games really are exciting and fun. Gambling gives us fun but too much fun can cause us to loss all of our money.

Controlling greed will definitely need strong self-discipline and self-restraint, thinking what may happen if you loss all your money might help but the greed can win over it. Getting greedy can be a little tricky since it will always make you come back to play again and you will always find a way to do that. Greed cannot be controlled, it is you who needs to be control. Being able to control yourself will not just help you in greediness but will also help you in some other things that also needs control.

certainly if you find yourself already knew how to deal with this problem you will be able to achieve more, as greediness already pollute our minds
and keep us playing even we already have enough both win or lose minimizing or completely control this emotions will be a good point for us to use that strength to be more useful in other way not only with gambling but other things in life.

Right, greediness and the addiction in playing gambling makes a person go mad and lose their self-control. An addicted player seems uneasy if he can’t play gambling for a day. Every person can control themselves from playing in fact, they could stay away from gambling if they know that they are already getting addicted to it. Some players think that it is okay to play gambling even if they have loss many times, it is just crazy to see that it seems like they have no regrets if they failed to win and loss big amount of money. I know that some of them really have the money to pay but if they would just think about it. Bitcoin is much better to use in investing.

Controlling greed can really be hard but if you are going to start as soon as possible and will have the determination to stay away from gambling, maybe the population of addicted gamblers will be lessen.

too difficult to control ourself from greediness
but if we want it we can control with leave it if we feel the profit is enough
i know its difficult but better to try it first

Problem is that many gamblers simply don't feel when it's right time to leave, they think and they hope that they will in with their last bet so usually they lose everything this way. It is better to limit your deposits rather than try to stop when you're gambling, s i am sure that you wouldn't stop then, while if you limit your deposits you wont lose  more than you deposited.

Many people gamble online because they don't want others to know that they are gambling but brings someone along with them to stop is not possible for many gamblers. But one thing they can do is that go with only the money which can afford to lose for that session or fix a certain amount for each session and never load more than that money even though losing that money within few seconds. That way one can limit their losses from gambling.

Different people have different ideas about controlling greed but I think that is something natural. Some time even after strolling and promising a lot we cannot do control our emotions and greed, human is  basically greedy by nature and he always demand for more and more even after getting a lot he cannot get satisfaction therefore I person have control over their emotion so it is a God gifted quality which do not possess everyone.

Addiction and greediness are two different things, some time we become addicted but it does not mean that we are greedy, because a lot of people are there in casino who are addicted to gambling and they play gambling regularly but they have good control over their greed and emotions.

They compromise even on little gain and some time when realize that he is going to lost more they stop playing gambling at all, so that are not greedy in any sense.

As i know gambling is all about luck and how to control my greed, except sportbetting (of course need skill and strategy).

I have experience in gambling (casino), somtime i hit big only with faucet or free money and i can withdraw from that. but because my greed i always want more and more, then i'll come again with my money as bankroll. Bet more and hope win more, but because of that i'll lose my money little by little and usually i'll stop after my bankroll to be "0". I call that with greed.
Anyone here have any suggestion to control my greed? Let me know.

For simple tips, just play with decent goals and no expectation since the more you expect in winning, the more you tend to play for winning which can cause you to increaase your greediness that can cause you losing a game.
