It's easy: I don't think much about it and treat it as a form of entertainment to kill time rather than to win something significant. Never really had any problems with my gambling habits ever since I started doing it a few years back. Also, I have fully accepted that whatever money I am throwing at the casino. there's no way I'll ever get it back, and I guess that acceptance is what probably saved me from chasing losses, which is a bad habit to develop in the first place.
Everyone doesn't have the same mindset. You have the mind to accept the loss and never go behind the loss to be recovered. Even I spend on gambling to kill time, but I loss control at some point when I keep losing. Here I start chasing the loss and at times I was able to recover and most of the time it'll be a big loss. This is what everyone should understand and have control over.

As far as I'm concerned, it's actually very simple. I gamble whenever there is something worth betting and I only do that when I have the extra money, money that I can afford to lose because it's not intended for something else. That's basically it. I don't just gamble for the sake of gambling.
Also, having extra money doesn't mean you have to gamble because there's money to burn. In the same manner that having so much time to spare doesn't have to mean you will go to the casino, log in to your crypto gambling account, or search for something to bet on. There are as many ways to spend extra money as to meaningfully spend idle time.

Seeing how many people who are problem gamblers today did not have the intention of becoming gamblers who lack self control but somehow they are now gamblers who cannot control themselves, It means that everyone is at the danger of become such if it is not put in check.
How do you keep your gambling habit in check such that becoming addicted and out of control is something that never happens?
(share your strategy for others to benefit from)
Gambling is a habitual addiction that the gambler cannot control easily once he is addicted. However, my advice to those who are not addicted to gambling is that you should not take gambling seriously because it is an addiction that once you become addicted to it, you cannot control it easily. I got addicted to gambling at the end of 2018 and I was losing almost half of all my savings in cryptocurrency but I slowly controlled myself from that gambling addiction. Although it was very difficult at first, now I have been able to control myself completely from gambling, but I have not been able to quit gambling yet. I gamble regularly from within my control.

Like any habit that has a high chance of becoming an addiction, you need to dose the amount, and I do this in two ways: First: I define a maximum amount of value that I will spend in the month. I don't have a fixed amount, but at the beginning of each month I set an amount based on my savings, "leftovers" that I had in the previous month and forecasts of expenses that I will have for the current month. So... I always pay my bills first, put a little in savings, a little more in the cold-wallet and then reserve the rest for gambling spending. I never exceed that amount. Second: Game time. It's no use having a good budget if I spend it all in a single day, so I limit my betting amounts and time spent playing during each week. Usually the money runs out before the end of the month, and the temptation to contribute more money is quite distressing, but I keep on overcoming the addiction.

Play on only fun mode. No you cannot win big or anything playing that was, but you cannot lose either. You get the thrill of the win without the heartache of a big loss either. We would all love to be billionaires and enjoy playing for big bucks but it's just not reality for most.

I set a budget and I personally like to study a bit about probabilities. I try to make myself aware that if I chase loses I would likely lose more money, so I simply log out and call it a day.
I also try to spend most of my spare time on other hobbies which have nothing to do with randomness, like drawing or language learning.

My case is similar to Hispo's. First I am aware of the mathematics of gambling and that in the long run loss is inevitable. So, I take it as a hobby to which I dedicate a (small) maximum of my weekly budget and I never exceed it.
Unlike others, when I have a big win, I am aware that I have had it despite having the odds against me, and instead of continuing more because I think I'm on a roll (to end up losing everything and more as happens to many), I stop the session, do cashout and come back another day.
We must also be aware that our emotions sometimes dominate us and be alert because of it.

Stay away from triggers. Habits can be overwhelming sometimes if that happens with you, go for a walk in park — It's simple yet it works.
If your hobby is gambling then distract yourself with another hobby. For me, it's mp games. Do whatever you can to occupy your mind.

It's like making us busier with other matters so we might forget to enter the casino and bet. But changing old habits with new habits will require time and sometimes more than people who try to stay away from the casino will be difficult. But what you do if you successfully apply it to yourself, maybe it will also succeed in others. It all depends on how depending on a gambler is at the casino.

How do you keep your gambling habit in check such that becoming addicted and out of control is something that never happens?
(share your strategy for others to benefit from)
My wife help me a lot in controlling my gambling habit when I was gambling a lot during 2019-2022. She helped me to manage my gambling funds. She is the one who manage all my money except the one I earn from this forum through the signature campaign. Most of the time, I spent what I earned from the signature campaign to gamble but sometime I need to ask for more money to my wife if I have nothing in my wallet. She did controlling my time as well when I was gambling, if she thinks that I've spent more than what I should, she will notify me. I do not know if it can be considered as a strategy, but at least this is what I used to do in the past and I can stay away from what is called by ADDICTION.

i admit it's not easy to get used to controlling gambling habits, especially at certain moments when gambling we have high self-confidence because we win big in several rounds, but i still keep trying hard to control my gambling habits and not be greedy under any circumstances, stopping after winning (not continuing to play after winning) is what i always do.

As a fellow gambler, I totally agree with your approach of setting a limit on your gambling budget and game time. It's a great way to keep yourself in check and avoid getting addicted. Speaking of addiction, I remember one time when I got a little too carried away with my gambling. I had won a considerable amount of money and was feeling pretty invincible. So, I decided to place an all-in bet on a game that I thought was a sure thing. Long story short, I lost all of my winnings and then some. Lesson learned: never let your ego get in the way of responsible gambling. Stick to your budget and game time, and you'll be sure to enjoy the thrill of gambling without the stress of addiction. Plus, you'll avoid embarrassing moments like mine!

Just allocate a certain amount of money that you want to use to gamble for a period of time and once the money has been exhausted stop gambling and do other things, and also try to set a maximum duration for your gambling so that you won't end up gambling for the whole day if eventually you managed to lose all your money before it got to your allotted time then call it a quit but in all you do make sure you're time conscious that the most important part all be aware of what you're doing and also everything that's transpiring around you.
Those are my strategies, I don't know if it will work for everyone but it does work for me because unlike some people here I don't gamble that often I do it when I'm free and have some spare cash with me, and also when I'm bored so gambling help me reduce my boredom.

Everyone doesn't have the same mindset. You have the mind to accept the loss and never go behind the loss to be recovered. Even I spend on gambling to kill time, but I loss control at some point when I keep losing. Here I start chasing the loss and at times I was able to recover and most of the time it'll be a big loss. This is what everyone should understand and have control over. In your case, you might think you want to use gambling to pass away time, but in practice, it's beyond that, you are actually for the money, only that you don't want to admit time. I gamble for fun, so I know what I mean, if I lose, I let it go, I don't chase it, which was why I always gamble with a very little amount. My principle is that any money that enters my wagering account is for the account, not what will make me get rich or what I expect a return from. And surprisingly, I don't lose my money often as I lose and gain with almost the same magnitude, I don't chase losses.

I think we had a few similar threads like this before, but it can never help to share the same information a few times with the community. I am not an expert when it comes to gambling or controlling my emotions, and still over the years there a few points that I keep in mind when gambling. First of all, never drink and gamble. Having one beer in the evening is fine as it's not going affect our brain that much, but drinking heavily is a bad idea to do when we are gambling. I have seen plenty of gamblers in a casino losing a lot of money while being drunk. The second recommendation I give anybody is to set fixed boundaries when it comes to gambling. Make sure you only play with a certain amount of your bankroll in the evening and don't go over the limit.

Always stick with a predetermined budget limit and this works quite well for me and also tries not to always think about gambling because there are other things that are more important to fulfill and need money than just continuing to gamble and only trying to gamble at certain times, for example for sports betting enthusiasts make bets when the favorite team is going to compete or when there is a big match only so that we won't be tied to continuous betting

Self discipline is I think one of the early factors that one can look at to avoid being addicted and problem gambler. It's hard to be in such control when you're already there. As if you're enjoying to gamble and you've been hitting numbers, you'll be having hard time in checking yourself when you're emotionally happy and no one is there to stop you. And even if someone is there to monitor and guide you, you may just ignore it when you're already emotionally attached to the games you play and you will neglect any advise given to you until you experience the actuality of having no money left and being a problematic gambler.

These are the things that I know can help a gambler not getting addicted into gambling. 1. Self-discipline - I know many of us are saying this term, but the reality is it's very hard to apply. Many of us are saying that they have discipline, but when they are on an actual game and felt that they're winning consecutive times, they can't control themselves anymore and in the end, they will lose their money. Having discipline I believe is the best trait to have because if you have that, you know when to stop whenever you are winning of losing. 2. Sticking to your plan - I think before gambling, having a plan is a must. Plan on how much you are willing to spend on gambling, plan on what will you do if you double or triple your initial money, plan when you lose your money. Having and sticking to that plan is a good way for a gambler to not get addicted. If you plan to gamble for entertainment only then don't overspend. There are many things to consider so that a gambler will not get addicted to gambling at all.

Seeing how many people who are problem gamblers today did not have the intention of becoming gamblers who lack self control but somehow they are now gamblers who cannot control themselves, It means that everyone is at the danger of become such if it is not put in check.

Gambling addiction can be very common. Many of us think that gambling addiction can sometimes be more dangerous than drug addiction. But gambling can be fun again if is controlled. Not everyone will be addicted. Basically all people who are indifferent to work or do nothing. They are naturally get addicted to gambling. As a result they lose money on one hand and on the other hand choose any corrupt way to arrange gambling money. A gambler will be successful if he is aware of money and time in his betting.

Lack of control in your gambling activities can make one an addict. I am not a daily gambler,I only gamble during the weekends to entertain myself,after the long week stress. I have a time duration which I use when am gambling so that, I don't be distracted with my emotions. I do this with two or three friends,so that we can be able to control ourselves from addiction. Self discipline plays a major role in controlling one's gambling activities. Sometimes, I go to visit my relations because if am with them,I dare not gamble since,I am hiding it from them.
