Considering gambling to be fun is possible, to the same one should have the clear understanding about the flaws one does with gambling. When one has got the ability to follow the steps provided by Op it'll get us with the easy access and minimize the losing which is the one that eliminates the fun mood of an user.

For most people (myself included), gambling at online casino's is a harmless pass time fun activity, but of course it can become a problem for many.   IMO, to lessen the risk of becoming a problem gambler, there are certain things i bear in mind such as,

• Gambling for Fun - Not to Win Money  
• Setting myself a gambling goal
• I Bet small  (don't blow all your money at once)
• I practice gambling with friends  
• Set time limits and walk away  

Many of these are easier said than done of course but it might be worth noting.   Online gambling is probably the best thing to happen since sliced bread   and i'm not saying these points could or would work for everyone but they might help in enjoying gambling in a healthy, financially sensible way.

I'm interested to know how you keep tabs and control on your gambling to make sure that one does not become a compulsive gambler or problem gambler.  

These are all good points but it's hard to keep up and follow, this because in the back of our minds, there is a thought that must strike while the iron is still hot, and there's always a tendency to get back what you lose in the previous, it just goes on and on until you become addicted.

Gamble for fun not for win it is also what I believe .
I gamble to relieve some stress but sometimes it is the other way around 😂 .
It is alway better to limit yourself when it comes to gambling,
You should know when to quit don't be too greedy or else you would only lose it all.

I set aside a small monthly budget that I use for gambling with my Bitcoin.
I send those coins to a temporary blockchain wallet and then will send them to a casino
At no point do I try to make up for lost wagers by chasing and sending more coins to the casino.
As long as I can maintain this types of control I dont see a problem with my habit.

Very true indeed.   To an extent, our individuality plays a big role in how we handle the 'play for fun' narrative.   If i should use myself as an example, i get easily excited but not so easily discouraged.   I find in most cases, the means if i win a bet, i'm likely to go even bigger (dangerous i know) whereas, if i lose, there is that feeling of 'i'll win the next one', and then it just goes on and on like you say. 

Even though i know 'walking away' is a very important aspect in gambling, i feel it is perhaps the most difficult one.

The idea is good, it will help gamblers not to be addicted, but we need to act on it, not just read it.
For some gamblers, although they can know what to do to be safe in gambling, but they still allow themselves to be aggressive.
When you are aggressive on winning, you are also risking big money in gambling, and eventually there is a chance
that will loss control and might spend bigger than you are suppose to spend.

Sometimes even if we set rules like these we don't follow it at all due to excitement or being greedy and such, I sometimes do this and bet all of my money, win or lose I will go home with no regrets. I don't what kind of attitude is this but I don't stop and still continue this kind of habit leaving me zero at balances at gambling sites. Gambling online is fun, unlike the real one where we have to go to a casino or a group of poker playing mobs, one day I won at a poker game and when I was going home I felt like I was being followed by someone that had lost the game, so that gave me creeps and never played again.

that is what you call an iresponsible gambler  . thats bad and that is the number cause of addiction  . you know its bad but you still continue   . i experienced that before and i believe others also experienced that but i somehow recovered from that habit . if i can do you can also  do . its not too late to change for the better  .

yeah . gambling online is fun but i think playing gambling outside ( offline ) is even more fun because you can meet and great actual people . you can have a bonding with your friends while walking or travelling to the casino of your destination  .

one day I won at a poker game and when I was going home I felt like I was being followed by someone that had lost the game, so that gave me creeps and never played again.

too bad for you  . next time try to bring some one , for extra safety  . or better play online if you are alone   .

[Caladonian]

Most of the time even you have this kinds of mindset, chances of failing to properly execute everything is always there, greediness mostly cause everything being take place, only those who have a good mind control can take advantage and take the winnings.

It should be read and think smarter, always take full responsibility of your actions.

Online gambling games do provide a different attraction when we play offline. With the online system, we can do it much easier, we can play whenever and wherever we are. it is a revolutionary in the gambling game system and we get such extraordinary flexibility. Now anyone can play and feel pleasure when playing gambling.

I would use a smart wallet if available. The wallet should enable me place limits on the amount I  gamble with daily.  Once I reach the limit, the wallet automatically locks the funds until  next next day or week

That's actually not a bad idea, I wonder if something like that already exists?
I mean, you already have the ability to time-lock a Bitcoin transaction and I know several other cryptocurrencies have similar functions like that.

With my Steem account, I can also lock however much Steem I want for either 3 or 7 days, which is pretty handy.

Honestly, i find online gambling as more tempting and harder to control than of physical casinos. It is because of the convinience it brings that you can even gamble by lying on bed. Multiple accessibilities can literaly makes quitting harder. So if you dont want to get addict, better play moderately.

This is true.
I guess one of the solutions to this is  to recreate what makes the physical gambling harder to reach. You could block all gambling websites or ads on all your computers, phone and other Internet devices

[Supercrypt]

I believe this kind of topic has been discussed many times before and the main idea of all above points is "self control". Once you have good self control, you wont be addicted even if you gamble regularly.

I don’t think a day can pass by without Bitcoin forum having a new member, so having a related copy is not a problem as long as it’s not copy and paste and I know we have the interest of our fellow mates at heart so any post to protect everyone from been addicted is highly welcomed on this section, I personally can never get tired of dropping comments on such post.

Point no: 5 is my favorite of them all. I always do this. Once I exceed my limit for the day, no amount of temptation or urge to play can bring me back. It means the end of the game for the day and this has really been  helpful especially to gain self-control in the game.

No matter how securely and sensibly we want to do gambling, we just get carried away in gambling and then these two words become totally irrelevant to us.

These two word can be put to use if any gambler put into use self discipline and control over the game. Although am a par-time gambler still yet am able to discipline myself towards been carry away. Gambling responsibly and sensibly is very much possible but it depend on the gambling to apply self discipline.

yes you are right it is the normal thing that everyone need to follow while entering into gambling because we are attracting from the gambling but we need to be careful with limitations and the way of controlling our self it must be the most important thing to be followed from every investors in this time after getting involved with gambling.

Now it is an easy access to gamble.
Online gambling had been booming for a lot of years by now and it is upgrading.

Lots of games had been created too and I never knew that dice will be one of them.
Before I dont even play dice but now I consider it as one of the fastest method to make money.

But you are correct, it should not be that way.
There is no fun anymore when you are thinking about profit first.
Got to go back from where you started.
Just have fun and do it because you enjoy it, then there would be no stress out of it.

That’s too hard to follow step by step because we all have different mindset while playing. Some may think just to have fun at first but after losing money they will become more greed to chase that losses and they are now aiming for the money. Gambling online is so easy now, and its easy to lose money nowadays.
