yes i keep on tracking my gambling activies . not just gambling but to also on anything that i do i love to record them on my diary . i see it as an investment because i invest time , money and effort playing with it .
those investments are so far worth it because i now know how the game works and i can somehow predict if what will be the outcome on my game . i also track my record via notepad on my pc if ever there is a good bet / bet i.d that i experience on my games .

I usually play sometimes because I am not an active player. The times I have won I have invested in crypto or bought something for my home. Usually, I make a spreadsheet to know how to distribute the good use of my money. Because I have my intention to save for the future of my children.
you are not an active player but you are making spreadsheets for your gambling activities?thats cool and it is the first time i read such thing. or maybe those non regular gamblers are more detailed than regular?because they treasure more the money as they need for their future.

If I keep a track of money that I used and lose in gambling I will just feel sad on how much I lose LOL, hahaha. For me, gambling is for entertainment and a way to kill time and enjoy. Some people gambling for money to earn is usually lose, so I am just gambling for fun now, sometimes for money too but I am ready to lose that money and that's just my extra money. I usually lose in gambling and sometimes win so if I keep track on it I will just make myself sad considering that I could buy a lot on the money that I lose. Let's just enjoy gambling ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The problem is that when you become used to the enjoyment & you have no other place get more or equal enjoyment, you'll most likely become addicted to gambling. I think I wouldn't be betting regularly if I am not earning consistently from it. Maybe the successful bettors should enjoy betting.

This is the first time I also read about it. Either he is so careful or he really wants to look for himself not to be fallen into addiction, it might be an overacting but still, you are taking care of yourself and that is good. I stopped tracking my losses and wins since I thought that is not necessary since I am not addicted and I can control myself but I guess it is not that bad to do it for self-reflection, isn't it?

I never allocate any specific funds for gambling but rather when I get my salary I make my purchases and at the end of the month I have some money left over which is what goes for gambling next month. Not just gambling but whenever I want to buy something expensive it goes the same way, I try and save more and end of month I calculate how much I have in hand and plan according to that.
Gambling is just a little part of life and allocating funds for it separately will be very funny because I mean it is like allocating funds for how many movies I will watch this month or pre-determining how money I will spend on candies lol.

There are individuals that have that kind of mentality. The people I know of, not only the money they allotted for gambling or entertainment purposes but every bit of their daily expenses. In that way, they said they know where their money is going to. Not to be stingy but to have the grasp how much in a month is spent in food, bills, fuel, and others. I think it also helps in managing your financial expenditures but you really do need patience in doing that. Also, that strategy, you will see which part you can save. But on my end, when it comes to my gambling activities, I don't record it as like others, I'm not really a regular gambler so for me, there's no need to jot down all those bets. I just enjoy the game basically.

I can tell you are just gambling for entertainment only, that what people do if they just want to enjoy a bit and they would not worry if they will loss. Actually that is a good attitude, it's a real meaning of having fun as when you have fun you have to spend but here still spend but you have a chance to win also but you are not expecting a win most of the time and you don't chase your loses. What you get is entertainment and that's worth of your money you spent.

For what reason in tracking your losses in gambling? From the start, if you applied this to your self "gamble that you can afford to lose" there's nothing important to know how much your losses or even your winnings.
But even if you are loosing only what you would afford loosing still you need pay taxes and you need to fill how much you have spent on what, right? Also on a second thought I think anyone who gambles daily must maintain a small spreadsheet where they can just fill how much they loose daily/weekly and calculate how much they are loosing every month or year because while we feel like we are only loosing what we can afford loosing but sometimes when we total up the lost amounts, it makes us realize that it is not worth loosing so much just for fun. But for gamblers like me who do it for fun, I don't see a need for making such sheets or calculating because I myself mostly gamble with bonus/faucet and sometimes with my own money when I am just too bored to do anything else.

It will depend on which country you resided in and probably this is now a case to case basis. If your government allows you to gamble and asking you to pay tax under their jurisdiction, so maybe a spreadsheet or documentation of what you have spend in gambling is needed. In order to calculate your tax payment. But if not, I don't think what is the importance of tracking how much you have been spent in gambling.

Although I don't keep track of my gambling, I can suggest to you to create a spreadsheet which contains about the date, deposit, win, and loss. That is the things that you can write so you can see how much the percentage of your win and lose, and that is a simple record that you can make. You can modify the list by adding more list you want.
I don't see gambling as an investment because, in gambling, we spend some money, but we will hard to earn money from gambling. I never think about making money because I know that it will be too difficult for me.

you don't need these if you are not serious with your purpose in gambling, if you are solely having fun, you just have to stick with what you spend now and never go beyond, always control yourself and stay discipline. I don't see gambling as an investment because, in gambling, we spend some money, but we will hard to earn money from gambling. I never think about making money because I know that it will be too difficult for me.
That's on you but there are people who are seeing it as a good investment, at least you know and you are honest to yourself that it's difficult for you to win, it's important to be realistic as we are dealing with money when we are gambling.

I find it rare to see people write the things that they've done within the day on their diaries. I can't remember how long it has been since the last time I've heard or known someone to write it on his/her diary. But don't call gambling as your investment because, despite the similarities that they have, gambling is a different activity. How do you write your wins and losses on your diary, is it through a small table or you simply write the amount?

i keep track, but do not see it as any kind of investment, it is just for the purpose to know where i am with gambling spending (yeah, unfortunately, it is usual a minus statistics), and with online bookmakers it is easier, since you can just list your payments and cash-outs and see where you are at the moment it is good to have monthly/yearly budget that you can spend on gambling without any hesitance and that you know that this will not influence your life, than you can gamble for fun, and if there is a winning, spend it on whatever you want

I appreciate of making it coz it is really far from me and I don't have any records to trace back where I spent my money, how much I lose, and how many times I win in gambling. Maybe I was wrong that I don't any of them to look at and to find where I am but I was so thankful also because maybe I can't accept the reality that I've lost a lot of money than of winning. This will might only gives me a reason to hate crypto gambling. I've enjoyed doing this thing though I suffered a countless time of losing but it was no regrets for me because that is the life I choose.

You are not wrong Hypnosis00 for not having a record of your gambling activities, I don't have it either. Some people are more dedicated, which is a normal thing, I am dedicated too, but not to gambling. It's my hobby and I don't need to have special diary for that. Losing more then winning is a bad luck! I gamble with low amounts, because of that I can lose a lot, but I can't win either, I am satisfied with playing, and little profit when it happens, I don't see myself as greedy person.

I used to have a record of my gambling before, but since I have realized that seeing my losses will only make me more agitated with gambling, I decided to stop making a track of it and just enjoy playing since then. Having a record is not bad but it doesn't give any benefit tracking it.

Well aside from controlling your profit/loss by knowing when to stop is the only benefit I see. I usually don't keep tracks of my bets. I recall maintaining when I went on with small deposit and turned it into x20-x30 by placing up parlays. I went on winning lot of underdog parlays and some heavy and close game bets and I still hold that spreadsheet like a trophy.

do you registerhow much you separate for gambling? do you see it as an investment? Gambling can't be an investment because you can surely lose while gambling if gone wrong, so can't take it that way. I just use 10% of my earnings to gamble and only bet on higher odds where chances of win are low because I love to take risks. if yes, how do you track it? simples spreadsheets, physical notebooks or maybe some different way?
I used to write these things into a physical notebook once but when my wifey caught me, things got fucked up. So nowadays, I just keep a track of these things via notepad in my PC and saved it with a password, so no chance of getting my betting secrets leaked to her once again. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I'm not a pro gambler nor an addicted guy. However, when I do gambling on casino, I used to deposit a certain balance and if I can manage to get a good winning, I simply withdraw some part of my winning and leave the rest into the casino. For sportsbet, I have seperate fund with a BTC address which I use only for sportsbet. Hence, I don't need different things to do to track the record.
For me I only use a few casino and sportsbook so it is very easy to calculate how much I have lost by just subtracting the withdrawals from deposits made to the casino. I mean gambling is not something I take very seriously and find no reason to keep a record of it, if I ever need it I can even ask the casino to provide me a full deposit and withdrawal file and just use it. Maybe people who gamble big and do it often need to take such measures because they also have to pay various taxes on winning amounts and they must know how much they have won to pay the tax but most of the gamblers I feel are just doing it with tiny amounts which don't fall under tax slabs and hence doing nothing wrong either.
