You won today, but then you will lose often

[tabas]

The problem that often occurs for most gamblers is because they don't realize that greed is what drove them to loss.

And discontentment, despite winning whether small or huge amount, they won't just stop.

Therefore I agree that the most important thing in playing gambling is how to control our greed. Because this is what triggers a loss initially to spend all the capital
you have, only to get a win when playing gambling.

It's easy for us to control it but there really are severe cases for those gamblers that are having hard time for them to control it.

[ShowOff]

Sometimes it is not greed though but also a fear to lose more. Chasing losses as they say, so this is very different from greed where the motivation is to make more profit. Many more players lose because they want to chase back their losses thinking, I have already lost so much,,, surely my good fortune must be just around the corner? They forget that random probability has no memory.

My experience gambling is probably almost the same as many other people here. I can win the bet one day and lose the same day because I can't quit. To be honest, gambling greed is really hard to deal with because I really want to win more. Yet if you think about it, that greed can bring havoc, which in the end can eat up everything we have won.

Gambling required good control, emotional management and realistic target. When gambling activities can be arranged with a good initial planning, it is still possible for us to get wins that will not run out on the same day.

Sometimes it is not greed though but also a fear to lose more.

It is most likely the fear of losing more. Some people may see it as greedy because the player keeps tossing in more. But for some who have been and experienced the same thing, they know the player is trying to gain back what he/she lost.

Betting more could signify both things but the real thing cant be determined because we don't know on whats that player do had in mind its neither being greedy or chasing up his losses.

When doing gambling then you should be aware on what are the things could possibly happen then you wont really be coming into this kind of situation.

You wont be chasing up your losses, you wont make yourself greedy.Everything should be in control and moderation so that you wont be ending up on a problem.

When they try to gain back what they lost before, that will not be easy for them because that can be the other loss of money for them. Even if you can recover what you lose, that will not fully recover because you will still have a loss in the end. If you can gain back you lose, you will be tempted and think that you will win more in the next amount to lead you to get another loss. Whenever you won, that would be your time to quit gambling and not continue gambling because that will be the way for a gambler to have another loss.

You usually keep gambling, so you should rather look at trends that at one time events. Everyone probably knows these guys who say "once I win big I go home and never play again" but that's most likely not going to happen. Saw it so often in real life casinos, they all went again even after a great night, me included

All without realizing it, the allure of gambling is that if you enter the gambling arena and sit, you will forget to stand.
The point is self-control when playing gambling and self-control is very important and a simple example when entering a mall or shopping center you will forget yourself when you see something nice and interesting and you will buy it every time you see it, until you don't realize it until your money runs out.

and some of them can accept pure winnings in gambling because they can control themselves and stop when they win consistently, because when winning there is little ambition to want to keep winning and want to keep playing which would actually cost him everything.
And as long as you have control over yourself, everything will be fine when you go back to playing and limit bets and win or lose you will stop according to the capital that has been provided, and stop when you win in order to get full victory.

I consider this as being greedy in gambling, your mindset tends to push more if you're too focus on your loses and greed will come telling you to chase that losses hoping that you can win it back. In gambling there's no way to always win, so you must know when to stop to avoid further losses and to protect your big wins.

Everyone probably knows these guys who say "once I win big I go home and never play again" but that's most likely not going to happen.

Adrenaline rush for sure especially if you don't have a plan before you gamble so you tend to continue playing hoping that you might win another jackpot but a the end of the day, you lose all your money and the worst will happen. We can't continue playing for just a hope, if you the big jackpot better to stop gambling for that day.

[Rengga Jati]

Every gambler experienced and will experience loss and also win. I this case, we may lose several times in gambling but we also probably win several times. About how much we lose or win will depend on each gambler itself.
In this case, some reasons may influence the gmabler of winning or losing their money.
Some professional gamblers may experience many losses in the past and they could learn from their mistakes, and turn into big winning often the loss right now.
But, if we are only a gambler, with no good experiences and also risk management, analysis of our losses, and we don't take the lesson, we may often lose, moreover of we are very greedy and only pay for luck.

[Kakmakr]

"Responsible gamblers know when to stop" - This is the slogan of the industry, but it is very difficult for a lot of people. You have to remember that the whole gambling scene are focused on you wagering more and more, because they get a percentage (house edge) on whatever you wager.

They will introduce "deposit bonuses" / "Gambling races" / "VIP Ranking systems" and lots of sponsored promotions to keep you wagering more and more money on their site.

Even third party slots are developed to pay you small amounts every now and again, to bait you into thinking that you might be the lucky person that would eventually win the jackpot. (The chance of that happening is very small)

Hello to all! Another topic about casinos and games. I started playing at the Stake.com quite often. At the very beginning I thought I would just play in the evening, but one evening turned into a constant game during the day. On the first deposit, I was lucky and I took out a little, it was x3 of my deposit and I was happy. Recently, I just started making stupid deposits and trying to win something and I understand that this is self-deception, but I cannot stop and make more and more deposits. I decided to make the 1st level of VIP, but for this I need to make a turnover of 10k dollars, but I am a player with low stakes and this is difficult for me to do. You seem to understand everything that you will lose, but you go to play again. How to get rid of gambling addiction?

This is one kind of addiction like drugs.Don't be frustrated, believe in yourself.You have to control your mind.
Today you can play 4,the next day you play 3,the very next day you play 1.Such you have to control your mind.thus you can control your mind.Give your attention to daily life and keep yourself busy with works.Weather you win or lose,don’t be greedy.
Hope you will be improved and best wish to you.

You can be categorized as a compulsive gambler because you do not know how to stop when you want to stop, you know that you should not be doing it but the urge is so strong that you cannot stop because you are thinking of the what-if scenario, you need professional help before you ruin your life and your family, the only way is to ask a family or a friend who can help you seek professional help.

Yes,,, of course I understand this, I am a gambler. We all want to win and win as much as possible, but all I am saying is that on one side, we get profits and want to grow it more (that is greed). But we generally also lose more because we want to chase our losses. The panic is usually more on the side of loss (we already lost a lot and want to reduce the loss). That is fear more than greed:)

^ Haha, that is a very clever strategy and I would love to do the same.
This is the disadvantage of playing on the digital platform. Games are already set accurate. The algorithms are almost unbreakable. That is why you had to wait until you get to the winning part. But basically, gambling addiction is treatable or curable. I had the same issues back when I was in my first employment. It was really hard at first. I had to get to the point that I lose everything, my relationship gradually went down. My people could not trust me because of my insecurities. Because I knew I did something illogical. And that is to place bets until I win. It really is hard to avoid once you are there.
The last thing I remember, I was introduced to meditation. Nevertheless, started being grateful for what I have and have peace of mind. Then resolve all the things I ruined one by one because of gambling. Now, I can tell I am contented and happy with my growth.

[MAAManda]

All of this is just a psychological problem when at the beginning of the game you will be given a victory so that greed will arise and you lose your mind to manage your money.

If you are made to lose at the beginning, chances are that what will happen you will not make a deposit again, but if the win is given, of course, you will deposit again.

Then You have learned your lesson? That's the only thing that matters now because no matter what you do, yet we cannot bring back the past.

You can't bring back your money.

What you can benefits from this? is that if you have used the experiences wisely , then you will never Lose again and will never become addicted again.

[Ararbermas]

Being addicted in a gambling is normal, but if you really exceeding the limit and you're spending to much money in it, like there's no tomorrow for you to gamble.. well that's not normal anymore .. And you should adjust as soon as possible.. because you're the one who responsible no matter what happen . And for sure time will come that it will lead you into some serious problem in the future.. better to fix what is necessary things to do while its not late.. And friendly reminder that gambling isn't a business like you can earn constantly from it,  because it's a game luck.. Just gamble what amount you can afford to lose..

Oh boy I can tell you, and the worst is when alcohol is involved Have been to Vegas a couple of times, started out super disciplined, ended up wasted and completely broke for the night Alcohol is a game changer in the most negative sense in gambling.

Never to treat gambling as main source of income, thinking that you can always do the trick and win.

Not even the so called experts can win in a daily basis, there's also days that  the strategy/system that they are using will not work, and remember that casinos always updated, they knew if there's something that sucking their bankroll.

While it's still early, better to work with yourself, assess and make sure to have the right mindset to control and limit your gambling activities.

It is hard to realize greeds, especially when you can enjoy the game and win for some rounds because our mind will tempt us to play some more rounds. Greeds are what we need to eliminate or control because they can ruin our day in just one or two rounds. Maybe playing with a calm can reduce the tension that comes to us, especially if we win on some rounds.
Oh, do not forget to limit the money you used in gambling, not lose all of the money.

Greed and ignorance have always been a very dangerous combination but when you have those two characteristics and you are gambling out of control then this is a big problem, I do not know why people do not make a very small research before having dreams of becoming rich when they gamble, if they did so they will understand that their dreams are never going to come true and the best part is that they are going to save themselves the pains of losing money they cannot really afford to lose.
