if you want to win big...accept defeat

[Thanasis]

I only spend a small amount on it.

Spending a small amount in gambling will surely not make you addicted, however, if I'm in your shoes, I would not feel the thrill with a small bet only.
I do changes my betting amount, sometimes I loss big and feed bad of course but I accepted that it's part of the game.

I don't want to get addicted into gambling.

You won't if you stick with your strategy, however, like I said, spending small amount is not fun at all.

But how long we are gambling decide whether we are addicted or not no matter of the bet amount is small or high because it where is depends on the financial status of the each person. Keep playing the same game again and again also can be addictive so keep changing the games and also the bet amount to make ourself refresh and not get addicted to that.

It is not going to work out like that

If one is predisposed to addiction (and I think there's not a lot of difference among numerous types of addiction, psychologically), the best a potential addict can do is to simply stay away from gambling altogether. He won't be able to stick to this strategy of small bets just because he doesn't have it in him (so it's better not to risk it). On the other hand, if one can keep on playing using small amounts for some time, he can as well bet larger sums as the risk of developing or contracting an addiction will be minimal

Lol. Let's not kid ourselves. Very few people can consistently bet with small amounts. The more you make bets, the more you'll be compelled to up your wagers. That's how gambling works even before addiction sets in. The fact that you're already gambling on a vonsustent basis, even with little amount, means you're not having an easy time avoiding the act itself.

There is something called Risk of Ruin.

Wikipedia has a good article on it:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_of_ruin

But the 1st 21words sum it up perfectly

Risk of ruin is a concept in gambling, insurance, and finance relating to the likelihood of losing all one's investment capital

Here is a calculator for it.

If you are going to gamble know your RoR and live by it.

Keep playing the same game again and again also can be addictive so keep changing the games and also the bet amount to make ourself refresh and not get addicted to that.

When you are addicted, your bet amount is way higher than what you can afford to lose, and how often you gamble doesn't count anymore as you can loss a big amount of money in just one bet, especially in sports gambling.

Addicted gambler usually focus on one gambling game which they think they can win, and because it's really challenging, they also challenge themselves putting an amount that would put much excitement that could affect their financial status in life.

Personally I have my limits for the number of bets I play within a time frame. After 3 bets, I most likely back off even if I'm winning or losing. You are right when you mentioned that people get greedy and keep Betting when they win bets, making them lose at the end most times. Let's remove greed from the picture and know our limits.

Say it to those greedy stupid gamblers out there . They don't know what are they limits and they will just gamble and gamble and they will only stop if they have no money anymore. I also have limits when I'm gambling. Around 4-5 bets is enough for me and I only spend a small amount on it. I don't want to get addicted into gambling.

Its easy to say those greedy gamblers, but it is hard that they understand it, because they have cross the limitations in gambling and they can't come and stop in limited manners, because they become greedy and have addiction of gambling.

When it comes to greedy gamblers and addicted gambler, they are hard to accept the loss because they cannot realize that in gambling, someone should lose and the other people should win and that is because of luck. They cannot accept to get defeat by another player or by the house because they feel that their luck comes to them and they should win. We should prevent us from becoming like them by anticipating ourselves to lose control, and we try to accept the loss no matter if it's hard to feel.

I feel there is two kind of addiction in gambling,first one is addicted to the game,so people want to keep playing the addicted game so te bet amount can be smaller since they can play longer by reducing the bet amount and the another addiction is for money this kind of people will act like just you said.

There is no type to that since addiction is addiction, that is no different than other addicted gamblers.

They bet money on it, they always play it, what is the difference? They are losing a lot of money despite them betting small money since they are still gambling and still, they are losing. All I know is that their playtime should be reduced to improve lives.

You are right, addictive people will not bother much about how much they are losing, they will bet the higher amount for higher rewards but there focus will be on one game. Because they already know when to exit from the game they desired.

It is really challenging for them and they will feel more pressure as they put a higher amount on their bet. This is the problem with them. They want to challenge themselves and in the end, they will feel regret because of what they did. Yes they are focusing only on one game but they must control themselves and bet a small amount of money.

When an user gets into gambling it is very hard to restrict himself within specific time limits. Better is to make a limit on the spending, and the same needs to be made unlike the winning and losing. This will limit the gamblers stay within the time constrain. However the gambler himself is responsible for his loss. He need to act accordingly having self control.

That's also chasing losses when gamblers becomes more greedy to get back their losses, its true that if you are on this state your mindset is to win and that's why you will put more money. If you want to win big then you must ask almighty to give you more luck on that day because even if you play the whole day without luck, then its useless.

Are you stupid @OP? If you lose everything you have to gambling that means you have addiction, don't accept defeat and try again, get help.

Gambling should be a hobby, anybody losing substantial sums needs to reconsider their life choices, there is no practices makes perfect when playing games of luck.

I will advise you read the post and let it sink before throwing insults, I see nothing wrong with what the op just mentioned there, it was just an advise that I believe would be beneficial to those it may concern. Gambling might be an hobby to you but definitely not to everyone and I will like to disagree that gambling is an hobby. I believe over 8% of players, even those that that pretend to be playing it for fun has a part of their heart willing to make money, so it’s better to know the dos and don’ts to making money.

Honestly, the habit of wanting to recover is one mistake that is been repeated by so many gamblers because we always believe it’s a solution but rather, it’s a big problem. The OP has explained better and nothing more can be added, it is important we all learn how to accept defeat.

Technically, I agree with you

With that said, though, I should still add that it is not like if you start betting with small amounts, you are necessarily and always going to turn into a gambling addict. If you are not predisposed to gambling, if it is not in your character, you will just grow bored eventually as betting small is exceptionally tiresome and dull

So instead of bidding up, you will just walk away without even looking back or thinking twice (I've been there with computer games). In this way, you can in fact consistently bet with small amounts, especially if you are in for something else other than (just) gambling

[nakamura12]

Gamblers should accept defeat as we all know that gambling is a risky platform to play and it's in the favor of the casino that is why gamblers will lose more and the chance of winning is very low compared to the chance of losing money plus having problems eith the platform and the reason why you should play on reputable gambling sites to gamble.

[XCANA]

Absolutely correct because without accepting defeat it will be impossible to get back on track with another spirit to win. Many loose their place in winning gambling because they couldn't get up to accept defeat, remember that, without the acceptance of defeat it will be hard to get the needed win.

[roosbit]

If you have used some of these well known strategies todate, you will have no problem accepting this theory of defeat( I mean losing) because this all leads to to a win.

And the fact am saying this am not by any chance endorsing these strategies because in the long term the house gets to win.

It depends because people do have different insights towards gambling neither they would play on gradual small to big bets then it would most likely to end up on the same fate which is becoming an addicted one.

Mind control and self awareness with your actions is the key to avoid such addiction but eventually people do failed up to do so.

You needed to have a clear minds every game that you've play, once you suffer from defeat you need to move forward and make yourself free
from any stress so when you comeback and try again your luck, having the positive mindsets and keep trying without any aggressiveness will
help you out to make much better sets of plans and strategy.
