Gambling securely and sensibly online

[mich]

Reason why gambling sites that have a lot of funds always win and never lose because players always play there winning even not on the same day that result for them to lose. Only disciplined player can win against a casino.

that is a sign of a good gambler to play again on the next day instead of playing all your profits on the same day that you won because that will only lead to a possible losses   . the reason why gambling sites have alot of funds is because gambling sites must need a huge capital before they start thier business because gambling is a huge industry , there are many gamblers around the world and most of them are also betting huge amount .

One of the most important rules I learned about sports betting is to not chase your loses-  but to rather live another day.
These book makers know they can hang a lopsided number on the last game on of the evening knowing there are gamblers who are chasing.
Its just best overall to only bet on games you think see value not to try to cover your daily losses.

I think most gamblers forget the most basic thing when in a difficult situation.
It is to have self-control always no matter what your rules to set when you are gambling.
Be responsible with your own action and do reflect it always before and after.

There are really good things that are just best to say than done because when you are already in the real situation and you are losing already, you cannot just stop and walk away. Of course you will try to chase your losses and only end up losing even more. That's the sad fact about gamblers today.

A common trend I see here in Gambling Discussion are people making threads complaining how they lost money, etc while playing. I bet they were not complaining while they were winning.

There's only on way to prevent gambling going out of hand and it also applies to other areas of life... Create a budget AND stick to it.

Set a monthly limit, a fund for everything entertainment-related. Use that up within a month or not, it gets topped up monthly and that's the only money you can use for gambling.

I don’t even pay attention to those who cry on how much they lost on gambling, once I see people like that I just know they caused it to themselves. Because I know that gambling sites did not forcefully collect money from any individual.

I dislike it when players are not smart or those who are too greedy in playing games. There is no rule that says if you don’t win in the game today, you can’t win tomorrow, so why play a game like today is the end of it all? Set a limit and if exceeded, quit and come back to play again another day.. Efforts to replay immediately and the intentions to recover loses are always disastrous and it ends leads players to calamity.

And the irony is that those who lose  to gambling will never come out to complain because they know that they shot themselves on the leg. Even gambling sites would say never gamble what you cannot afford to lose. But because the players feel they are smarter than the operators of the site, or they have one strategy that can make them win the odds, some would even go ahead to borrow money from their friends with the intention of winning back in double folds.

So when they lose, they just hide their faces in shame and the innocent people who didn’t know that the players did that to themselves would start blaming gambling sites and writing negative reviews about gambling.

That’s very true. Understanding is the key to a secured gambling. Like you have correctly said, many people are not doing well in gambling and that is because they have the wrong understanding. It is really annoying to see that people are dependent on gambling to pay their daily bills and this is not right.

Having fun in gambling would be much easier if players can just enter with the mindset of not making so much and even when they intend to make money but not been greedy.  Gambling never made anyone rich so it is pointless to be desperate to make so much money from gambling. There is a great difference between gambling and Ponzi scheme, even though they are both risky.

The prerequisite to any venture you want to be part of is the knowledge about that area. It is very important to learn the hows and whens if you want to succeed in that area. The main reason why so many people terribly fail and loose everything in gambling is the fact that they treat it as a way of making easy money which is not right. The probability of win in gambling is less than 50% for a wise man. How come a man who knows nothing about gambling hit a 100% probability only if there is no luck involved?

Looking from your statements, this is what I conclude

- If you are in a loss, you cannot quit with loss
- You need to invest more and play more in order to recover your loss and you will lose more.

So what do gamblers do then ? If they are in loss and quit, they will lose the money. If they do try again, they still lose more money.

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.  

There are some people that are so addicted to gambling online to the extent that they don't even know when to stop. Even when they are losing all their money they are still playing and losing more money. It is fun to play these games but being addicted to them is very bad and can lead you to do things that are really bad. It's good to have a set time and don't exceed it, don't spend much of your time in gambling every day, just do it for fun and not as a means of survival, it is a game and should played at your free time.

that's where the gambler must be able to decide when to stop and return to play, preferably every gambler he must be able to control emotions while playing, when he wins he has to make the right strategy to bet again by placing a price lower than the win, or can stop playing for a while so there is no greedy attitude and hope to win a bigger bet that can result in a losing streak

That is a safe strategy so far with good emotional control, but in reality some gamblers are not easy to carry out this strategy, because when they are betting the mindset of the gambler has been affected by greed and self-control that cannot be controlled. But that is only a few and not all gamblers have the same attitude, so the important thing to gamble safely is to always maintain our mindset so that we can make the decision to stop and continue.

Past experiences would be the best teacher and once a certain gambler do already aware on such thing or consequences

he does know on how to avoid it on next session on playing gambling,being emotional cant really be easily controlled because each person is different on handling
themselves on such situations.

if you are a newbie going in an online casino you might fall into the habit of running after profit, you should first watch it with your friends who are a responsible gambler, so you will learn how to handle the game, how to bet stop when winning or losing, this is important it will set your habit.

Some people cannot find relief if they are lost in gambling games and they will try over and over until they can get their money's back. Perhaps, at that moment, they forgot that in the gambling games, it is hard to recover the losses, but they still push themselves to continue playing gambling.

Self-control will be needed in those situations because we don't know how long we can play and not to lose the money. But for the truth, we will be going to lose more money if we cannot prevent ourselves to stop and quit gambling.

There's only on way to prevent gambling going out of hand and it also applies to other areas of life... Create a budget AND stick to it.

Set a monthly limit, a fund for everything entertainment-related. Use that up within a month or not, it gets topped up monthly and that's the only money you can use for gambling.

it's the nature of people - they always complain for losses but never complain while they are winning. but all you need is just to stop at right time.

Another point is that even if people win in gambling, that win is temporary as they invest all the amount again and lose it in the next game. People should know when to play and how to get and withdraw profits. If you do not withdraw your profits and keep on playing, eventually you lose all your money including the profits also.

Reason why gambling sites that have a lot of funds always win and never lose because players always play there winning even not on the same day that result for them to lose. Only disciplined player can win against a casino.

I would say that even the disciplined player will lose in the long run and that is why we see that gambling casino are never at loss. Those people who win some amount in gambling, lose the profit and the seed money on their next games and this way gambling sites never lose.

It still depends on how gambling has a hold on you if you are gambling for over two years and you have tasted  winning big amount of money I don't think this will work, the temptation to win those big amounts you've won in the past is very hard to suppress, you will need medical attention for this.

Lucky are those people who experience winning big money in long term gambling, but I believe most of us still hasn't experience a big win.
Like in my case, I'm already gambling for years but AFAIR, I still have no won an amount that I will be satisfied to stop gambling for awhile and just enjoy it. Most of the wins are just small amount since my betting range is also small, and the longer I play I know I'm losing money but still not giving up.

Gambling websites never experience loss, and few websites have closed their services facing some legal issues. Every gambler could've experienced this form of loss while spending on casinos.

When it comes to secure way of gambling, online gambling with cryptocurrency is the best as it gives the anonymity. In a recent thread came to know about a robber following a gambler coming out of casino getting robbed with the entire winning. This can be overcome by the online gambling and the access we get is very easy than going to a casino.

Of course, you are right, because most of the gamblers either have fun or make little money because of their bets.  If someone gets a huge win, then this is undoubtedly Lucky man who hit the jackpot and such cases are not massive.  Yes, and income such a cash prize can not be called.

I seem to be unable to control my emotions while gambling. So I had to seek help from my family members. I'd let them know how much crypto I have and where I have placed them. And possibly give them the passwords to the wallets or sites. I have limited my gambling to the bounty earnings. This way I won't be losing much.

[Ucy]

I would like to know what's your motivation to continue gambling  despite not making much profit? Do you think it is impulsive or you are still focused on winning something big one day?

It is interesting you said you enjoy it despite being unlucky

[Jjewelle29]

Me I do gambling for fun & also to win money I also set my goals to bet a small amount and set time limit and learn to walk away if I win big also
practice gambling with friends because its more fun to gambles with friends.
