How to control greed on gambling?

[boyptc]

For me, it is not how to control greed but you must know how to stop gambling. Controlling your greediness will not guarantee that you will not coming back to become greedy again because the temptation is always there unlike a total stoppage it will take you away for coming back. Try to shift to other activities like sports, gym or even church activities that will make your busy all the times by these you will completely avoid gambling.

If you are not greedy then you can stop gambling immediately. I'm sure of that when you control your greediness you can also quit your emotion and actions with gambling. And for sure you can do whatever you want after controlling your greediness, it is the feeling that makes us to gamble more because we are not contented on what we are winning and earning so if you don't have it, you're fine.

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.

Well, you should know that when you gamble, the chance of losing is higher than winning, because winning is a goal in gambling. Gambling can really make you greedy. So, I really think there's no other way to learn how to control your greed. You should make your own move when it comes to this.

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.

I totally disagree with you. Greed can be controlled since it is among the seven deadly sins. You can control it the same you control your emotions and sexual desires. If you are just aware that you are greedy and realize it is a weakness that is going to destroy you one day, you can put limits to it and control it the way you want it to be. It is not quite easy, but you can do it in the end. You just need commitment, determination, willpower, and time.

I think you are right regarding the ability to control greed. We all greedy in a way and whether we can control it or not is what makes us different. For people with pathological greed it is better to never start gambling at all, but for others it's just a game where they can practice money management, greed control, anger control and other things. It's impossible to say exactly how to control greed because every person has its own way, but what is for sure is that greed should be under control.

Of course, greed can be controlled but it is only to a certain degree, we can not control the greed forever, at a certain point, a strong temptation will impact our greed, and we will lose control. Especially in gambling, profit is a temptation too great, although we can control and set limits but accumulate greed for long periods, it will be very easy to explode when it has a strong impact from the outside, same as sexual desire, if you can not satisfy it, at some point, you will not be able to control because desire is too large, that is our instinct, we need to satisfy when it needs

Maybe some point in our lives we have been greedy whether it is concerned about money or just some type of valuable thing. We always want what's best for us for ourselves and that is human nature in my opinion. Controlling that may be hard but i think it is possible especially if you have the right mindset.

How to control greed on gambling OP asks. By not gambling? Lost 3 BTC once in bustabit even with what I thought it was a "infallible" strategy and never gambled again. If you want to gamble then It is better to gamble your money on the altcoin market.

If you decide to leave gambling for good then that is fine, but we do not have to be like that, one way to leave your greed behind could be to play some friendly gambling games with your family in which the most important thing is not to earn money but to  relax and have a good time, with time you will get used to this and you will have the same attitude in a casino.

It may work for some but not for others. If a person is looking after money only, then it really does not matter who his opponent is, the intentions will remain the same. It could be that he might enjoy the game more but he would still want to win and earn some profits.

Actually it is the matter of greed. Human is greedy and it is natural, everyone is. So as you said, whatever you are against, whosoever giving you lessons for not being greedy still you are ending you looking for more profits and easy money.

Still many can control themselves and majority got victimized of this greed, it happens. Still hopeful for not being greedy.

Yeah, it goes all to hoping but temptations are so powerful too that it is so hard to get them right out of us. I think while you are not that deep from gambling, better keep yourself from betting your money and hoping it will be greater if you bet it. Better invest it so you can have good money in the future.

An empty wallet and a hungry stomach teach the best lessons of life. Gambling gives us both but it is better to not learn important lessons by easy means instead of practically experiencing it. Also, the experience can be a tempting one so it is better to stay away. If a person don't want to end up with empty pockets, he must keep on reminding himself that gambling can do this.

It is hard to the part of the players to control their greediness because, it is part of their culture in life as a gambler. Therefore I know that all people are want to become rich but this is not the answer to their question to become rich immediately. Definitely as one of the player of gambling sometimes even I just want to stop playing because I already win, I can't do because I just want to earn more and more.

[JL421]

Try to set limits on how much to play and stick to it no matter what. Must be disciplined.

discipline is really important limits are set by many gamblers but many don't follow it because they don't have any discipline in them if you don't have discipline setting barriers and limits won't help you in any way it's better to avoid gambling in this situation

It is one of the most difficult tasks to be done in our life - CONTROL over yourself even when you know you are doing something wrong.
There are a lot of things in the world which are weird and gambling is one of those things doing which a person loses his capability to stop himself from continuing it, under the influence of addiction. When such things happen, either should you see a guide to help you get out of it or to help you do it for fun and not living, or you should start doing things and keep yourself busy with them which will help you to recover from the distraction it creates in your mind.

Why people don't have control over their emotions? Let's look at this problem with a scientific point of view.

It is due to the behavior of brain that a person loses control over his decisions. Our mind trains itself according to every new environment because it tries to adjust in all sorts of weathers. Meditation is the only solution because this calms down our brain in every situation.

[Shinpako09]

You can learn to control yourself as time goes by. You'll realized all the fault. How long? depends on you when will you realize. It's all about experience. I'm also greedy before, If i'm winning I wanted to bet more or bet higher thinking that I can always do it. The same if i'm lossing, i'm betting higher to recover the previous loss bets and not thinking that my balance will get bust. Playing more than one session a day thinking that I can always win everytime I play.

Now, I lowered my max profit a day to $25 and I only play once a day. That gives me 10 day winning streak before I withdraw it. Don't always aim for a bigger profit. Yeah, small profit but still it's a profit better than nothing.

That's true, because not all the time we can earn profit in gambling and we can win every time we play. We must always remind ourselves for that, that gambling can end up us with an empty pocket. We must learn how to control ourselves and do not let control us with our mind.

The trick is to think of gambling as a form of entertainment and not as a way to make money. The odds are always in favor of the house. Also, never bet more money than you can afford to lose, and don't chase losses.

[Lecsor]

I believe that you need to set yourself limits during the game that will not allow you to spend more money than you can afford to lose. But you also need to get rid of greed in the real world and not depend on money.

Then you don't have to gamble, you can play games for fun where money isn't involved.

How to make greedy people to get rid of greed? It doesn't make sense, if someone is greedy i don't think there is anything that could change that.

[mware]

difficult to control it, when we win we can withdraw it. but you will refund your money when you get loss or want to play again, even greater than profit. set a winning target and immediately withdraw may be a good way to reduce greed

although there is already a targeting target for our daily could be carried away by lust. remember human passions will not be endless because humans basically want to always be more

Setting limits is a really good system to use. But you always have to ask yourself.. Why do you gamble? Do you want to have fun or do you do it only to win money? If you want to have fun, start up a game and reach your limit within 2 minutes.. Do you continue play? Or do you follow with the limits? That's where most will have issues I believe, I know I have.

Yeah, it goes all to hoping but temptations are so powerful too that it is so hard to get them right out of us. I think while you are not that deep from gambling, better keep yourself from betting your money and hoping it will be greater if you bet it. Better invest it so you can have good money in the future.

The temptation is really powerful and especially those that have only been in gambling quite recently wont be able to get out of it. If you get out it sooner then you might be able to completely control it . Alot of people fail to control their greed and they will spend alot more when they are greedy because they will want to win more money in the end

being greedy will not lead to success, it will only make us life more complicated. It's good to grow what you already have and make it fruitful, but not to the point that we get too addict, there's a proper way ,steps and plans for it.

Last time I checked, even in our normal daily life, greedy people do not always last. Any greedy person always end up fumbling and fumbling up so bad that they cannot help themselves. The mindset that some people bring into gambling is what ends up affecting them.

Some wants to just make money, while some are at it, they want to put more to see, until they end up putting all and losing all. Greed kills quickly and faster.

[wuvdoll]

if you are already addicted you will definitely be greedy. one to control it is by determining the maximum limit every day when we gambling. lest we cross the boundary so we can get out of control

Indeed mate.. learn to control yourself by also controlling your emotions and feelings. If you think you can do these things to yourself then you can control not to be greedy in gambling. Just limit yourself every time you have a gambling activity.

Limiting is also good in terms in gambling, but some people don't control themselves even if they already set a limitations with themselves, they will not think about their limitations, they will only do what they want until they are unconscious and their money are already losing.

I have been into that for many years. I mean, I made great plans but I always failed to follow them. Maybe it was because I was not so serious about life as I thought it is an easy task to live. i had no management skills and zero control over my desires. It took me a lot of time to become a man of action. Like you said, we follow our fun first and security later without realizing it easily.
