What did you learn as a gambler?

[buyinbtc]

As a gambler, I knew how to not underestimate myself. I figured I could compete with myself quickly and I could just control myself. But when I tried to leave gambling after a couple of days, the gambling urge was so strong and then I realised how I could go against myself and it wasn't that easy to quit. So what I did I just stopped completely and now I barely never gamble just a few trades here and there on sports.

Being gamblers I have learned a lot.
--know how to control my self and the amount that I must spend.
--I understand very well that gambling is not an alternate way to have a source of income.
--Learn to accept mistakes and move on.
--know what is provably fair than probably fair. (sounds weird)
--most of all we warned about addiction and we educate it well.

-I wish that most or all of the gamblers know that attitude that you learned too
-It isn't and it will never be . Those who are thinking that gambling is another source of income are either gambling addicts or stupid gamblers.
-I didn't learn this in gambling but in playing online games although I have learned it too while I'm gambling.
-No idea what this is and don't need it anyway .
-I don't want to educate other people especially if they are not interested into it.

Never lose your money, yes I've really learned this from being a gambler. Maybe it's very easy to make money from gambling but it doesn't really make it and you're at the highest risk of losing all your money so when I want to place bets mostly I'll try not to deposit any new money I'll just play with what I've got and if I'm lucky to win I can make it big if I don't have to.

Never lose too much that is the right thing. We cannot avoid the fact that we are prone to any losses, because we cannot perfect each game , I mean I think the online casino for example has a unpredictable result so I think we need to think that in every game losing is part of the game, but losing too much is bad and we need to change our strategy .

i hope everyone of us have this same learning,that we must expect losing so whenever we play let us consider about the chance of risking our money again so limit the playing time and lessen the gambling habit.this is what we need to be for safe gambling.

Expecting to lose is just like gambling to waste money, it's not a good mentality IMO, I think what's important is you accept if you lose but you still aim to win because aside from entertainment, winning is our purpose in gambling too.

well we have our own opinion about how to treat gambling,because for me it is better to expect the losing than the winning and in the end failure is what we've got.

i have been in bad shape of gambling in past and this is what i have learn for me to get over and start to move to better way of gambling.whenever we look for winning this always brings us desperation and goes to addiction sometimes.

Every person has a different mindset, sometimes there are some people who find it difficult to leave their habits. Actually leaving the world of gambling is easy to depend on yourself and will seriously leave it. Also, finding habits and doing useful activities will make you slowly leave gambling. If not the habit will come back again and destroy you slowly.

That is what we need to do in gambling. Controlling ourselves will be the important thing in gambling, so we can prevent the worst thing that can happen. We learn many things in gambling, including how to limit our money. And we can learn how to stop as soon as possible if we see that we don't have a chance to win. Stopping gambling will be the last lesson for gamblers because that will not easy to do because we need to have the power to control our minds to leave gambling forever.

Would it be better to consider if we are expecting to lose, we are being pessimistic and being prepared interms of psychological impacts if it really happens to us? Because if we are always looking forward to win and to expect to win will just make our emotional aspect weak especially we might be depressed if we lost too much despite of all the hope we have to win.

Suppose I were given the opportunity to share a lesson about gambling with those who have never gambled, maybe I just want to say there is no need to gamble because there are many other more ways for you to make money. But, what is happening right now is that it is difficult for me to find people who have never gambled, and when they have known gambling then at least they have their own way of life and understand what should be left and not.

Spending money on gambling can be done in minutes but it took years to earn that money so be aware of what I am doing while betting is my primary learnt less from gambling.

Be greedy to make money but don't choose the easy way is my another lesson from the experiences of gambling.

[bitzizzix]

I am not an active gambler but sometimes I play gambling with my friends and bet playing cards, and what I experience does not seem to have an effective meaning to be learned from gambling other than being patient and controlling myself.
and that is all possible in theory but difficult when directly experienced and I limit gambling and do not want to be an active gambler who in my opinion is not good for me.

I agree. Everything is easier said in theory than in practice. Saying is always easier than doing. I also agree that a person like you who is not really an active gambler can easily practice patience and control compared to the older gamblers. It is my general observation that old gamblers are already addicted to a certain extent compared to those who are only playing for the sake of having fun with friends.

This is true, gambling is all about luck. In very limited cases people get to make an earning using some strategies. In simple learned the value of money, because when I don't need much money I had it in my wallet. This is all through gambling and trading, but when required my wallet is empty. This made me realize the true value of money and how to spend it.

The negative side of gambling can indeed be addictive and it can happen to anyone who likes to play gambling. When I play gambling every day, I have learned tricks and strategies in gambling, but in the end I still lose too, even though I have won, but the number of my wins is only a little.

It's true that there's no gambler that is always on the successful path because there are rough roads that we'll take. But there will always be successful gamblers that applied what they've learn and corrected the mistake they've committed.

Responsibilities over hobby is what makes you a better man but before doing it, always set aside the other things and settle it so that you gamble at peace without anything to worry.

i love gambling after doing my responsibility as a good father to my kids and wife  . this makes me gamble with a peace of mind and that is good too because i can act and think properly  .  

it makes me more succesful on my short term goals  . still it does not mean that you will win like me if you do that strat because like what you guys said  , there is no always succesful when playing a gambling and even the pro themselve do also know how to loose  .

And that's what you have learned as a gambler.

Despite of the bad thought that it's getting from most people, you are proving them wrong that it won't change the way you provide things for your family and also, they can learn from you as a gambler.

Yes you are right. Gambling must be done when a person gets complete sense of drawing a fine line between the responsibilities and fun. A responsible person would never prefer to get all his money into the stream of gambling without keeping an eye on his losses and wins. So in order to stay safe from the addiction one muse bear some level of maturity.

Right risk is all around us and we will have to face it bravely. We should learn from gambling that where there is profit there will be lose as well. Gambling teach me how to earn with enjoyment. Gambling taught me to be patient and it's joyful way of earning money. Being gambler I have become so confident to face problems.

Gamble from time to time and don't find it a source of income, particularly not your main source of income. Gamble on the things you know about. If you're playing sports than betting on the sports that you understand and obey. Don't look at the odds and make their assumptions. A serious player is playing single matches and only the matches they know about. That's the only way you can make money out of it.

[pearnapple]

Okay, gambling teaches me a lesson not to play, and when you choose to play with any excuse, you will end up playing unknowingly, making you a gambling addict. At least that's what I knew when I was involved in daily gambling, and even so after quitting gambling there was always the possibility of returning so that the real lesson could be learned was about self-control.

[LogitechMouse]

I learned in gambling that it shouldn't be treated as a source of income because it can wipe out your money in an instant.

I learned many things on gambling like self control, proper discipline etc. but when I start in gambling, what I think is gambling can be considered as another source of income but I'm wrong. I got lost so many times in gambling and in the end, I learned that it can't be a source of income. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm a newbie at that time and at least now I learned to my mistakes.

actually most of us old time gamblers had already this realization,and not allowing to lose all our money again.

we are all wrong,specially us who has already accept our mistakes and dont let it happen again,i am proud to be one of those also.

I got lost so many times in gambling and in the end, I learned that it can't be a source of income. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm a newbie at that time and at least now I learned to my mistakes.

and that is what we need to accept for us to be saved from becoming a bad ass gambler.Congrats mate as i am also done in that stage.
