A lot of people wonder what is the criteria of a good gambler, here are some of my thought about good gambler
a good gambler never chase profit Profit might be the first reason why people gamble, but a good gambler never attached to the profit, the most important thing in gambling is excitement and fun experience, having profit is just the bonus
a good gambler able to control himself / herself Self controlling is very important in gambling, without a clear mind there will be a lot of mistakes in betting and even causing reckless betting and losing all of the money in split second
a good gambler know when to stop Setting a limit is very important in gambling, setting a lost limit will prevent you to over spend your money and setting a win limit is also important because in the long run the house got a bigger chance to win due to the house edge
a good gambler never cause any problem to the surrounding A good gambler know that the chances of losing money in gambling is huge, so a gambler should never used daily needs money or borrowing money to gamble, and a gambler should never think of robbery or stealing to gamble
a good gambler can accept lost When losing a good gambler won't blame the surrounding, cursing or accusing the casino as fraud places, losing is the half part of gambling, if you can't accept lost then dont start to gamble
a good gambler should able to manage the time A good gambler know how to split the time for family, for friends and for gambling, a good gambler never neglected family or friend just because of gambling
We must encourage people to become a good gambler, so people won't always have a bad judgement about gambler
Very well said mate. If every gambler will follow it I think everyone of us will win everyday. Greedy to win more and chasing the money when you lose must be avoided to have something in our pocket when we leave the gambling table.

Criteria of a good gambler from my personal experience into gambling is to stay within limits and have expectations to a certain limit. When the expectation to win big strikes the mind automatically the risk that associate with gambling will also turns big which needs to be eliminated from the thought.
Well, that just would make him a reasonable person who understands that gambling is not meant to be for profit making but just simply a way to just try out some crazy things which is what I call it anyway. I do not thing there is any specification for gambler on whether he is good or bad, as they are all gamblers anyway and they are losing. Someone who is matured with his anyway will know how to always not set mind to make money from gambling but just to have some fun.

Some people are just taking risk beyond their limit that it came to the point that they are risking the things that they cant afford to lose and when they lose it can affect their personal life really bad. I know few person who play gambling that make their lives more worst. I do not encourage them to play gambling but I really think that they are a addicts now and I cant do a thing to make them stop. That kind of people is the person I think is a bad gambler.
That is always why most gamblers simply lose everything they have ever worked for anyway. It is a big mistake to think that you can get something substantial from gambling or setting one’s mind into thinking with consistency they can end up making shit load of money from gambling. This is just an insane way to think and one of the main reasons a lot of gamblers fall into this crazy zone where they eventually end up as an addict which is bad.

maybe good gambler knows when the time he should quit the game and leave the place, he knows that when he wins the games with the winning money, he needs to leave the places as soon as possible because he can attract to play more games. he can manage his money by placing the bet and he knows how much he needs to spend. he doesn't play too much just chasing the winning money because he knows that this will be difficult to do so he decided to play without any consequences.
it can be regarded as an attitude or decision so that he is a smart gambler but not only that we see in terms of morals how when he wise in making decisions when losing or winning not only that play sportive one of the key as a good gambler. Neither there is a smart gambler, nor dump, nor good nor bad, is every gambler a stupid person who is playing with his own life and intends to fade out every little shining ray of his life. Gamblers know it very well that this game will never ever make them rich and they never obtain the best money out of this game, still they become addict just for that little easy earned money. That is right hundred percent. There is nothing good in gambling so there must not be any good or bad gambler. Every gambler, even he was good earlier, now he becomes toxicities with this stupid game and greed of money. So he becomes bad now. You must understand this fact that there can never be any good thing encapsulated in bad thing. This is a poison that eats you and makes you evil.

1. Knowledge of which games to choose. A good gambler knows which games are stacked massively against him 2. Knowledge of when best to play. When do all the fishes arrive, when to leave a table when a pro arrives. 3. When to stop, and how much to play with. Few people actually have these skills, which leads to a lot of debt.

OP I think your criteria are more "Ideal Gambler" points, as I've yet to see a gambler fit all of these at once. I also tend to look at gambling as somewhat of a vice and definitely not a money making mechanism or even a hobby. Kind of like smoking and drinking. People need to do it responsibly if they do it at all and realize that there is always a risk of creeping into that territory of problem gambling. After that's reached, you can kiss money management and family life goodbye.
Still it's a decent list.
Although maybe no gambler in the world fits the criteria stated in the OP, it is still a decent list, like you said. I take that list, as well as some decent additions in this thread, as something every gambler should strive to follow. When we gamble, of course sometimes we do chase profit, the question is how often do we act like that? And sometimes we lose control and don't know when to stop, but when while gambling we reminisce the list from the OP, it might be very helpful.

this is a must to learn from gambling, I think this is the basis on which we can become a pro player in gambling, because all knowledge about gambling will always we learn as long as we still do gambling. hopefully we all fall into the category of pro gamblers

I think that all investing in the hope of rapid growth is not the best strategy. Everything else depends on the type of gambling, you need to be able to think and not make decisions with your feelings. The poker game, and successful players clearly reflects my approach to gambling.
Gambling is a very bad addiction and that the ones who are used to it invest all their money even if they make that investment in installments. They cannot stop themselves from gambling until and unless all their money is wasted in gambling as they are very much fond of doing so and that they keep on going for the ways using which they can get more money so that they can gamble even if this results in loss. Gambling actually becomes an addiction for those who allow it to become an addiction for them. The thing with gambling is that if you cannot control yourself, the greedy nature of humans and those impulses that comes with gambling, there is absolutely no way anyone can do right. Once people start seeing gambling as just a game of luck and there is a huge chance that they can lose what they are gambling with, I guess we would end up having more sane gamblers than insane ones. No one allows gambling to become addiction for him as it becomes an addiction without getting noticed by the gambler that’s why their treatment becomes very difficult because the time when they become aware of the fact, it’s too late for them as gambling has made a base in his mind till that time and destroying that base is very much difficult because it consists of whole building on it.

Treatment is difficult at later stages but it is not impossible. I know a lot of people who were addicted to gambling badly but they recovered and are leading a very good life now. As per my personal experience, the only way to avoid that stage is to keep yourself busy in other activities that are more important for your survival.

Gambling is not easy. Experience, skills, tricks, tactics and of course luck are the features of a good gambler. You cannot win a bet from a skilled gambler. A good gamble thinks all the time about the tricks and thinks positively to win the bet. It is also good strategy of a good gambler to bet a small amount and not the whole to lose another chance of betting.

Hah, I think you can't be a good gambler. Only if you play those skillful games. Overall gambling, will lose you money. Maybe not instantly, but for sure! House always win. That's a fact.
Maybe in the games of poker where you may be a bit good at with some little bit of luck but the pure game of luck, like dice, plinko and some even other worst ones, you are not even supposed to be winning anything as the house edge will always take all the profit eventually and all those gullible and irresponsible gamblers who think gambling is the way for them to end up prosperous in life will only end up giving the owners more while they end up screwing up their own life.

It doesn't depends on which game you are playing,it just depends on how he is playing like control manner and limits while betting .Yes you are little bit right most of the players will lose money in the long term but it doesn't mean everyone if you got enough lucky then you will probably will as much as bets but it is highly impossible that will happen. But gambling doesn't for money making which was created for the fun if you missing it then you are nit a good gambler too. I feel sometimes luck is over rated which is why some people think they can even have the positive mindset and channel luck towards them. It may work for some, but in the long term and when it comes to gambling, I have never seen someone who really did not get hit at some point. Such mindset allow people to get the wrong picture and behave in a manner that totally screw them up entirely until they realize how hard it is getting out from the addiction they have placed themselves in.

I think a criteria to be a good gambler is to know how to strictly restrict himself from using the money that are suppose to be used for his family expenses to gamble in order to chase back his heavy losses, that is one of the reason why people who are heavily addicted to gambling could often find themselves getting into a very stressful relationship with their family members.

These factors that you have mentioned here can play the role in making the criteria of a good gambler but for me the criteria of good gambler means that he should know when he has to stop or leave gambling for good. When he would come to know this thing, I bet he can easily become a good gambler because in that way he has to face no big losses like other people in gambling.

It is like thinking of a group of murderers and then assessing which one of them is efficient of them and which one has good skills and which one is better among others. Dude, listen, and grow up. You all must know that when the base is made up of evil, how you can expect of building of virtue over that base. When gambling is harmful for everyone then it is all in vain to check for criteria of good gambler.

There are many criteria of a good gambler. I think that type of a good gambler is can control of himself, emotion, patience and don't be greedy.
A good gambler when he has gambled his entire life and haven’t even won anything should wise enough to completely quit gambling forever. That would be the wisest thing to do to every man on this planet, quitting to the things that makes their lives miserable. But, thats not very easy to achieve. Specially to a person who lost a lot of money because of gambling, he will be forever chasing for profit to make up the loss he made in gambling. Usually a person to be in this kind of situation is the person who usually cannot control himself while gambling. Quitting gambling is not criteria of a good gambler, it can be his compulsion. I admit that controlling yourself on the table is high criteria of a good gambler. I think that one should not gamble for the whole of his life, because the end is bad. If you are fond of gambling, just pass your time in casino with your friends and gambler little bit and leave for home. This is good criteria of a good gambler.

Some people are just taking risk beyond their limit that it came to the point that they are risking the things that they cant afford to lose and when they lose it can affect their personal life really bad. I know few person who play gambling that make their lives more worst. I do not encourage them to play gambling but I really think that they are a addicts now and I cant do a thing to make them stop. That kind of people is the person I think is a bad gambler.
That is always why most gamblers simply lose everything they have ever worked for anyway. It is a big mistake to think that you can get something substantial from gambling or setting one’s mind into thinking with consistency they can end up making shit load of money from gambling. This is just an insane way to think and one of the main reasons a lot of gamblers fall into this crazy zone where they eventually end up as an addict which is bad. Yeah, the impression that someone can be good at gambling at any aspect of it is actually a wrong mindset to have. The only way to be good at gambling is to know that you can never be good at it as there is nothing to be good at. But practically no gamblers get chances to know those things. It is not a skill that one gets good at, it is a game of luck and the more most of the gamblers who are just stuck with the mentality of winning started getting this, the better for them to either stay away from gambling or gamble with an extreme caution of not losing their minds.

Agree, good gamblers are those who are able to keep from falling into things that can interfere with his life. Those who use little of their money to gamble and no intention to use the money that should be used for other purposes, are those that I think a good gambler.

Quitting gambling couldn’t become criteria of a good gambler because when he will discontinue gambling, he would no longer remain a gambler and when he would not remain a gambler, than there will be no criteria for him which is for good gamblers which we are talking here. I think the gambler becomes a good gambler when he knows when to stop.
