Does the discipline help in gambling?

[Reatim]

If we are being discipline while betting then we may not lose much money so yeah it can be considered as successful in gambling but it can be depends on lot of factor especially when someone looking to play to hit jackpot then they will feel success only when they hit it,when someone want to get the pleasure of adrenaline they will be successful as long as they can able to bet without losing much.

On that point if adrenaline comes for sure we cannot control our bettings,that’s why it’s better to just play without intentions of winning at all,why not play like you are in cinema watching movie?you are paying but winning nothing?
So in case that you won then it will be considered as extra bonus?you enjoyed and win?

I don’t know why gamblers treat this as profession when there are many jobs that is appropriate for us and gambling is only a hobby to bing us happiness

as I know, discipline in gambling is not greedy. Stop when the money runs out and know when to stop.. I've seen greedy people destroyed by themselves, they borrow money and even sell private assets when they lose just to gamble and stay for days without knowing the time at the gambling table..  we must be really good at controlling ourselves when gambling, don't be curious and greedy when you lose, just be sure that in the future luck will be with you.

[Genemind]

Gambling really needs self-discipline or else, you'll lose your track. As for me, it means that you should have the courage and knowledge to stop when necessary. You should set your own limit. Some people couldn't control themselves and become greedy which may result in future regrets. Gambling is just a matter of luck and there's no guarantee of winning so you have to take control of your emotions and your decisions.

[jakoylantern]

For me, it still depends on the person and what discipline he/she has done. But in my perspective, I have control myself to not bet too much and don't catch my losses. Having budget money which I can use to bet and if that money is gone/ lose in the game, I will stop. Also, I stop not only on losing but also in winning when I get my profit range. I quit ( but this method is still depending on what luck I have on that day).

When someone gets into gambling for the very first time, surely he'll be lucky to get a bigger profit out of gambling. People easily get into greed, by this time very few get to understand the start and stop point of gambling. Most gets to miss the chance out of the greed, another thing very few get to know about money management. From my learning keeping ourselves self controlled is really a tough task with gambling. This happens when we continue to loss. Good is to have a break for the moment and continue to gamble. With gambling discipline is a must, than that we need to be clear on our necessity and the possibility through gambling.

^ In general that is all about self-discipline. We as human beings we should have on that discipline not only gambling but in all aspects of your daily activities/habits. Gambling needs a self-moderated, which is very important there and you should always remember how risky it is.
You should set a limit on which point you should stop no matter if you lose or win. And yet, that is very helpful to the gamblers not to turn into a negative side which is an addiction and which is more worst if you had a miserable life through your addiction in gambling. Nevertheless, that was very sad.

the point is when someone expects to win in gambling then at that moment you will lose more, but when you can do it with discipline then you will not continue to bet and have the right time to stop before all your money is lost in gambling because of a strong desire to win the bet

Obviously, when we talk about discipline in gambling, we mean the ability to stop in time. And this includes not only stopping after winning, but also stopping when you are constantly losing.

[EdenHazard]

Having good discipline might not make you win more in gambling because many games are purely luck-based, but for games that don't completely rely on luck, I can definitely see confidence being a good thing for your chances of winning.

If you've got extremely weak discipline, you probably shouldn't be gambling in the first place because you're more prone to gambling more than you can afford. Gambling's certainly nothing to mess around with, especially when many people get hooked and can't stop, and others that just don't seem to learn from losses and continue to do the same thing over and over again in an attempt to 'earn back' their losses and more. A long time ago, I also used to rather recklessly gamble my money, and though I get less adrenaline from gambling now compared to then, I get a better feeling afterwards knowing I've still got plenty of money left compared to nothing or almost nothing.

If he means about discipline is being disciplined to manage the bankroll such as to cash the money out & stopping to play for a while everytime you hit a win to reduce some pressure, emotions and greedy inside yourself then I might tend to agree that this discipline manner could always help you to gamble healthy responsibly , that's the point to risk your money in gambling without risking your whole personal life as it's quite often happens when someone gamble emotionally undisciplined they are ended up with crazy bad things as worst as suicidal attempts or at least ended up in huge debts.

Being disciplined is more than just helpful in gambling, it would help you to get a better character in person overall.

Should we be disciplined in gambling, does it mean that we are better at gambling, or that we put less money at stake with more enjoyment, less fear, adrenaline, etc. ?
Me interested in answering the last question?

I can't see any relation between being disciplined to putting less money , less fear but to purely considering gamble as entertainment, am I missing your point?

But if you thinks that which one better between staking more money vs less money to get the entertainment in gambling, I'd say less money releases any fears to go against the odds , to go against the majority and to make you disciplined ... as for the result, you'll play nothing to lose.

Exactly. That's the only thing matters when you are gambling. Knowing when to stop... The danger is once you start to lose, you cannot easily stop because you become greedy and think: "Why not win more!" When you start to lose, then the opposite happens, damn "One more bet, when I cover my losses I'll stop."

That one more bet never ends till you go bankrupt. 

[LbtalkL]

For me. Of course, Discipline really matters in gambling you need to set some limits so that you will not lose bigger amounts. It is better than going all out or all in sometimes it pays off sometimes not. It really helps you in making decisions and other stuff. Discipline is really important in all aspects and our daily routines.

Perhaps, if many gamblers can have discipline in gambling, they don't have to face a bigger loss. But we are human which is not perfect and we still learn about discipline and many others to prevent from the mistake. Making a limit is one of the preventive ways that we can do in gambling, so if we can gather with discipline, it will work well for us to save our money.

But there will be lure or passion that will keep telling us to go on, and on so we might lose the discipline, and we might break the money limiting. That will depend on how strong we can control ourselves to hold our emotions.

Yeah, it is easy to say to have discipline but sometimes you might break your own rules. lol. Sometimes I keep telling myself that this will be my last bet for today and then  I still continue playing because of the will to win. I don't know but sometimes it is very hard to control yourself from the greed as you said we are just human and not perfect but everyday we keep learning from our mistakes and take it as an experience.

If we want the adrenaline then make sure we can afford it by gambling,its just one form of getting but different people get adrenaline feel on different things so if we aks someone who want to be gamble to watch movies for the same thing is okay? No right.

May not be everyone treating it as profession but generally people gamble expecting to win bets.

Well said bro and i can relate to what you have said. It's very easy to say to have discipline but it's a hard thing to comply.

Greed is powerful and just wonder who among us here Gamblers have that discipline to control our emotions.

Yes, I got that experience before. I say to myself that I need to stop after 30 minutes in a gambling game. But the fact, I even continue playing gambling until 1 hour hahaha. The first time I gamble, I don't manage my time so many times I played more than 1 hour, but then I realize that I need to change my time in the gambling game. So I start to control myself in gambling. I learn about discipline in gambling because it is hard for me to stop the feeling of playing more.

After practice in many days, I slowly can manage myself and handle it without a problem. Yes, discipline will help you to follow the schedule you make so you can stop at any time without a problem. With practicing discipline every day, you will have the power to yourself to limit the time in anything, not just in gambling.

How strong does a character need to be to set aside some amount of money on a weekly gamble?
What needs to happen to make it happen?
Does the great loss solidify our character?
What exactly does it mean to discipline yourself in gambling (in the narrow sense)?
Should we be disciplined in gambling, does it mean that we are better at gambling, or that we put less money at stake with more enjoyment, less fear, adrenaline, etc. ?
Me interested in answering the last question?

Its really a big help discipline in gambling are needed because once you have discipline in your self while gambling you know how to stop if you gonna win.
Discipline is avoid you from greedy that is a need once you gamble discipline.

[shoreno]

aside from setting up some money to gamble , a stong character/gambler should also know how to set his own limits ( e.g set and pick a time of the day to gamble )  . we dont need to loss/big just to make our character improve because we can always improve right at the start but the most common that happen is that many gambler will only adjust once they loss  .  to the last question , i think you already answered it  . that should descipline gambler means .

It's actually hard if we have to fight self-control for a big ambition. any discipline when gambling there will be moments where greed will blind about the plan and also what we have done. that's where we will suffer a great loss due to greed. because basically the lust and not satisfaction to make gambling is still there and survive. people who are disciplined about profits won't always get their benefits

The question is, does gambling have to do anything yo improve one's self or to practice discipline? I think it should be the other way around. If you're a well disciplined person, then gambling ways and routines shouldn't be a problem at all. Knowing limits and priorities are automatic for a disciplined person and yes, it helps in basically everything including gambling.

You are right, it should be other way around. Disciplined person is already a developed person, someone who have experience and knowledge. That kind of person will not rush into gambling with all the money, he will check the games, he will try some things, generally he will not lose a head after few loses, disciplined man knows his limits and his wishes!
I`m not saying that is hard to sharpen yourself with gambling, but that`s a hard task due so many variables in gambling.

You can be a 100 times disciplined player and only once succumb to excitement, which will lead to large losses for the budget. Because any player in certain circumstances may lose control of their emotions.

Well that's right a solid answer, that's why a person with discipline will not just play without thinking but in other opinion, im not saying gambling is totally bad or dirty but if a person that have discipline will not play gambling why? Well because as you've said that person will not rush and think first, so that person will not play gambling at all because he/she's going to think a head on what consequences might be or it is have a good impact or bad impact to it's self or maybe to it's family.
