How often do you gamble?

[romero121]

Earlier I used to gamble regularly, during those days I used to get good earning out of the same. Suddenly things changed with heavy loss, and I wasn't able to get back the lost amount. This made me spend at some time interval to lower the loss. Gambling needs to be kept in control, if one hasn't got control surely gambling isn't the right thing for them. From the beginning of the ongoing year I have decreased my spending on gambling.

My gaming frequency has lessened a lot quite lately. I would say this has happened because I have lessened my debts to almost zero. I remember when I was deep down to around $700 debt and so most of my earnings went to pay off the debt and hence I relied on gambling to quickly pay off the debts. But now when I can keep most of earnings to myself, it pains to gamble away what little I earn

Definitely a good thing you did there.

A lot of people turn to gambling to pay off debts, and then start getting wreckless with their wagers, betting more they can afford to and end up getting further into debt.

Sure, some people do strike it big and win enough to pay off their debts, but the house edge wins more than half of the time, so these are fewer than 50% of those that try.

Hopefully you can turn your life around now, and keep gambling to a minimum, playing with only what you can actually afford to lose.

Exact to the point. If you will be reckless the chance of having more debts will happen to you but if you can manage to minimized everything around your gambling activities, you will be gaining a good amount of money. Having a wise perceptions into this kind of business brings chances of winning more. Start building good system and strategy and focus with money management skills.

Still, I wouldn't recommend to anyone to turn to gambling in order of paying off their debts. It's a very important rule of gambling that you should expect losing what you are going to wager. Even if you have good self-control, and you know that you can stop right after winning the desired amount, it's a bad practice, imo. Return your debt first, and then gamble for your entertainment, if you like it, but never rely on gambling for paying off your debts.

I gamble only if I have money then stop it when 3 consecutive loses.

Have extra money, right? Yeah, I did it as well and I think it really works to prevent severe losses. Losing extra money doesn't really affect your life. And if you can win with the extra money, it will be surprising your day.

Yes, always set the limit in playing gambling. Deciding to stop after 3 consecutive losses seems okay for some gamblers, but not for others. However, for newbies, it is recommended to do. If you don't really know how to play it, don't risk all your money for more losses. 

Or better yet, get some valuable surface knowledge first before diving in. It's much better than spending a few dollars even if it's just disposable money. Ressarch on it, look for patterns if any. Find the optimal win condition and set up a strategy that will support your lifestyle and needs. After everything is kept in check, try the gambling site. Comapre your wins and losses. And always ensure that you're not tilted and addicted. Stop after 3 wins, stop after 3 losses. Don't get carried away when you win and place a very big bet.

That's just some of the tips I use myself when I'm gambling. So far I haven't lost that much money

Exactly we should spend that minimum amount for gaming which can be used without any fear of loss. Gambling never crosses the limit of the money always stay moderate and get into real Ana good sites for gambling as scamming has become so common I personally use to spend only a few hours of my day for gambling ana always gamble with a limited amount.

Yes, it is not advisable to play gambling in order to pay your debts, it will just end up having more debts than you have before. If paying your debts is your main reason to play, the possibility to lose is really high.

But he's lucky since he was able to pay his debts and that is also becomes the reason to make him realized everything he did.

~~ get some valuable surface knowledge first before diving in. It's much better than spending a few dollars even if it's just disposable money. ~~

This must be done before trying some attempts in gambling. Only a stupid person who gambles without having sufficient knowledge and research firstly.    
I never imagine if an amateur begins to gamble blindly without good self-control. Then, he must get losses all their funds and ends his journey on gambling too early.  

~~ Ressarch on it, look for patterns if any. Find the optimal win condition and set up a strategy that will support your lifestyle and needs. ~~

Research is the key to know everything about it. But if it is your beginning, don't expect too much about winning. Better to focus on having a good experience and improve your knowledge/strategy.

I usually play every friday because that is my "rest" for the whole week, so approximately, thrice or four times a month playing poker and roulette.

Earlier I used to gamble regularly, during those days I used to get good earning out of the same. Suddenly things changed with heavy loss, and I wasn't able to get back the lost amount. This made me spend at some time interval to lower the loss. Gambling needs to be kept in control, if one hasn't got control surely gambling isn't the right thing for them. From the beginning of the ongoing year I have decreased my spending on gambling.

Adjustment is a good thing than to try regaining the amount that you have lost because chances are high that you would end up with bigger loss as you gamble. Self control is not present to all gamblers that is why there are people who are being addicted into such activity.

Lets just say i have a strategy for gambling, i have a set aside amount from my salary that is reserved for gambling.
Weeekend sport betting is a must for me, and midweek matches too especially when there are champions league matches.

But once i exhaust my threshold amount allocated for gambling, either im in profit or not, i roll over and wait until the next month.
And it does work for me most times.

what works for you ?

Yes, it is a good idea to exit gambling, whether it is profit or loss because the double strategy always returns with losses
but in champions league matches hard to guess which team will win the match

Some people still gamble for entertainment purposes , so maybe, it does depend on the habit you are having as a player whether to quit or not.

I read somewhere that when we are not into gambling more often then the losses we may make with gambling will be very very lesser. It means if you are more often to gambling then more losses will incur. I'm not sure how much true it will be because when gambling is not profitable why gamblers are rushing more often to it.

Honestly, I will gambling often when I am finding myself happier on seeing profits and I will take long break if I feel I am facing more losses than profits. I believe this will be basic  psychology of any human when it will be true and gamblers are more often to gambling then there be must be more profitable gamblers but not sharing anywhere. Just an assumption from my side on their gambling habits.

When losses occur, gamblers play more and try to recover those losses.
This is the reason why the lose more and more.
And it is true that when you are losing money you are not entertaining yourself.

Playing to recover losses is one of the major thing that led to people bankruptcy and gambling addiction as per gambling. Besides, what you said are what inexperienced gamblers performs because every experience gamblers have their rules of gambling and they also understand everyday is not Christmas so they set a certain strategy of quit the game when the time is right not when making losses.
Meanwhile, making loss in gambling does mean it not entertaining.

Yes for us to be sure and it will be good in our financial status if we only play when we have enough money, do not show off it is not good and not necessary if you have money an extra one then play, but if you have a little amount of budget better to set aside playing gamble for a while, in a week I am sure that some of us don't have a huge amount of earning every week so I suggest to play twice a month if ever, since here in our country the salary are being given twice a month.

When losses occur, gamblers play more and try to recover those losses.
This is the reason why the lose more and more.

We should stop this way of thinking, we must not recover our losses because when we do, it is also the time we are about to lose more,have some break and let it be.

Firstly, you need to understand that the article is misleading because gambling simultaneously dont always make the gambler incur more losses. What every gamblers need to understand before making profit is the genuine concept of gambling and how to gamble profitable?

Honestly, I will gambling often when I am finding myself happier on seeing profits and I will take long break if I feel I am facing more losses than profits. I believe this will be basic  psychology of any human when it will be true and gamblers are more often to gambling then there be must be more profitable gamblers but not sharing anywhere.

Gambling is not always about profit making but enjoying the game and knowing the right to call it quit.

Gambling is not always about profit making but enjoying the game and knowing the right to call it quit.

Exactly but think of this, gamblers do gamble to win so at their mind they expect to win every time they gamble, that's the reality, right?

However, due to the fact that gambling sites are long time winners, we need to be realistic and accept the reality that we will experience more loses than winnings and regardless on how often we gamble as long as we understand the risk and we are responsible enough, this should not be a problem.

But not all of the people are in gambling because they wanted to earn money, some people just want to be entertained. If kids are trying to play video games, probably the old ones wanted gambling as their entertainment.

Regarding about loses, no gambling sites exist that will give you 100% win rate since it's pure chances.

I do agree with you,
Not all people who are into gambling are always after the fun it gives. Most of them are actually hoping to win their expected money through gambling.

Good point.
That includes me, not because I play means I am after the fun, winning is everything.

Without any doubts, that gambling sites are the final winner and how often we are going to gamble, will make them how quick more richer. I really hate the question of "how often do you gamble". Because there is no significant improvement or any achievement for a gambler when he gambles more often but there are a lot of significant benefits for gambling houses when gamblers play with them more frequently.

When gambling will be giving us some experience and knowledge then we can have some points on going for gambling more often. But, gambling is completely based on luck factor hence there will be no meaning of playing it more often.

We can play gambling every day, but we must know that we have to limit our money and time, so we don't use big money to play gambling. We don't have to risk the money for just playing gambling because playing gambling itself is not for making money. When we can realize that, we don't have to afraid to playing gambling but controlling ourselves will be an important thing that we need to do because without having control for ourselves, we can spend too big money without we can realize.

Playing everyday is not a problem but the biggest things that a player can't do in playing gambling is to play too much with spending more money like usinv the money that is need . We know they have players who did not know how to control theirselves in playing because they already set to their mind that they need to win in that day they play. Limiting yourseld can really help you for sure.

Finaleshot2016, was absolutely right because there are some people who certainly have more than enough money which are usually not after earning money through gambling but the entertainment involve.

There's meaning in gambling more often once the gambler only gamble with the money he can afford to loose and know the perfect game for himself.

@kayvie, expecting money through gambling may lead to addiction because gambling is a game of chance.

Not all gambling games is based on luck, if you are playing card games, that is when your skill will be determine.

But yes, it is true, the expectation to earn money through gambling may lead to addiction, but isn't it all gamblers are playing just because they are expecting to earn money?
I don't think that people will just play to have fun seeing their money to lose. Even if it is a reserved/extra money, it's more like an idiotic excuse to avoid the reality of losing your money through gambling.

I started gambling in my life in around 2013, at that time I used to gamble to earn my daily expenses, to tell you the truth, I was addicted to gambling.
But after marriage, my life changed drastically, I got a job then got busy with family although at present I do not play as before but I have not quit gambling yet.
Yet I often go gambling with friends but now I don't gamble on the big risks just play on fixed cash games and sometimes play tournament poker games.
On the other hand, I think everyday in my life I'm gambling now and then. Even every decision in my life is a gamble. For instance, if you want to be a Crypto trader, every trade you make is a gamble for you, you might make a big profit out of it, you might even make big loss in it.
