Not all gamblers are strong, some really fall into this trap and become more greedy, unfortunately a lot of bad news already happened before with gambling, i believe they are too emotional and loss a lot of money. I guess we all have this kind of scenario where we chase losses and thought to play more, again many didn’t succeed on this one. So if you have a friend who most likely will gamble like this, better to remind him and tell to your friend to move on and forget that losses. Being too emotional are not good as well in gambling, avoid such emotion.

Gambling is for everyone who wants to gamble in any casino, regardless of their reasons, the important thing is that they can get what they want to gamble in a casino.
Because gamblers have different reasons, some players gamble just for fun, and others gamble because they consider it a source of income, and others gamble because they have an addiction to it.
That's right, of the three types of people I can say that, people who only aim to have fun he knows when to stop and when he has to play and he also uses money he is ready to lose. The type of person who makes gambling as a source of income, at this level becomes more dangerous because usually they will continue to play until he really wins and he forgets the limits when he loses and has to stop. And thirdly, this is the most dangerous, because people who are addicted will usually do everything they can to make their desires play fulfilled and usually people like this will quickly be destroyed by gambling, because they really don't know when to end the game while they still have money to bet.

snip With this, I wondered if other person's here in the forum that are into gambling too has at any point in time thought or felt that way, particularly when the losses are becoming overwhelming. And in that case, should such person stop gambling and rather divert such monies into something else since he/she ain't making corresponding wins or more, checking his bet history, Or he should carry on with hopes that winnings will start creeping in someday gradually?
I'm a gambler, but I don't go that bad. Expecting victory and greed are the main things that trigger stupidity in gambling, it looks like your friend is no longer talking about fun but is already looking for a win that depends on the luck given by the gambling platform. maybe he should realize that gambling is not a place to make money or income but rather for fun. He must realize that there are no rows of rich people anywhere who gamble except the owners of the gambling. the right decision if diverting the flow of funds to other fields and making gambling only entertainment or calming when under stress.

Gambling is for the strong and sturdy. I got this caption based on what happened when I visited an old friend of mine as it's been long since we saw, and so, after a little time out together with random discussions I discovered a sudden change in his mood while we're still chatting. With a steady look on his phone in his hands for about a minute or more as he scrolled up and down the phone screen repeatedly he shrouded his shoulders with a simultaneous regrettable look all over his face. I took the phone from him only to learn that my friend has been calculating the whole series of losses he has made from all the bets he has placed from one of the gambling site he patronize. He had made a multiples of losses in almost all the games he had placed bet on right from the start of this year, even to the current bet of that very day.
But then he asked me' bro assuming I had gathered all these money I have lost through gambling and channeled it into some sort of a little business or project, wouldn't it have been better! At that moment I never knew the exact word to give to him as I never expected such deep a question, for the least I replied him was "hmm I can't really say".

I don't think there really is any argument that your friend should divert theor money into something more positive. Investing into something is way better than spending all your money on gambling. Gambling should be a fun activity and really bet what you can afford to lose. It sounds like your buddy has an issue. I hope the best for him.

it seems to me that the person you mentioned here has a strong greedy nature, in the end, those who are greedy will only make it difficult for themselves and the people around them I know it's not easy to stop gambling, especially for gambling addicts but if there is no change in himself, it's impossible for the person to come back. for me gambling is only for the smart and also have stable emotions

He cannot undo it anymore. Hope that your friend learned a valuable lesson from that experience. I've been there too, there were times that I thought I can make gambling as my source of income but it turned out to be the opposite. Just enjoy playing. Set limitations and remember to follow them. I think the majority of us also think that way when they once won in a game. When I won more than $100 the first week of playing dice I already thought I could play dice all my life. But it's not winning all the time in the next few weeks. Another few more of loss and then I decide it's not for me, maybe some other games. Still not winning and then I tried looking for what others are doing and how they win. Finding ways to win is probably the beginning where gambling has really made into your mind and it's getting harder to control. OP's friend is already counting what he could have saved if he didn't gamble the money. It's still not too late, he still could make money and not gamble it all. The best part is that he is already in crypto so he can invset in BTC.

Lol, I laughed 😄 because of the topic, Gamblimg is for the strong 💪. Yes, I agreed with you but the strong we are talking about here is for the gambling addict, right? It's only a gamble addict that can give more attention to his or her bet than a friend and that makes him more tightfisted, I wish him more strength.

I never thought of the same thing your friend asked you. Since I only gamble funds that I can afford to lose, there is no regret whatsoever that came to my mind whenever I suffer a series of losses in my consecutive gambling session. If your friend wanted to know the answer, then he can start trying it the moment he thinks if he saves that money and sees for himself whether what he is thinking will happen. At the end of the day, it is his funds and he is the one capable to change his way.

And in that case, should such person stop gambling and rather divert such monies into something else since he/she ain't making corresponding wins or more, checking his bet history, Or he should carry on with hopes that winnings will start creeping in someday gradually? we have to put things like this: Let's give an example of a person who has a monthly salary of $400. that person takes 100$ and pays rent for the house and 100$ buys food, 50$ pays the electricity and water bill. 50$ he uses for fun, in this part of fun he does the following: he stays in bars with friends consuming alcoholic drinks, and that person's life goes on at that pace every month, nobody gets angry with him for leading that life now let's go to another example of a person who has a monthly salary of 400$. that person takes 100$ and pays rent for the house and 100$ buys food, 50$ pays the electricity and water bill. 50$ he uses for fun, in this fun part he does the following: he stays in online casinos playing, when he loses all 50$ monthly that is destined for the game he stops playing and waits until the end of the month to have another 50$ to play and if he wins then he will have more money in the bank to continue playing. friends and relatives will not be criticizing him for his lifestyle my point with these two examples is to show that everything in life requires self-control, if your friend starts spending money that was for expenses on gambling then he has problems, he is addicted to gambling, what do you need talking to your friend was about the self-control you need to have in gambling to not sink into addiction and go bankrupt and end up in those places where there are crazy people

You are right because gambling doesn't have anything to do with emotions and what have you, as for the friend he may have gambled with what he can't afford to lose which is a bad state of mind because if care is not taken he will be suffering from gambling addictions. Because for him to have said the money he gambled with is enough to set up a business means he already lost a lot and he needed to give space to rejuvenate and build a positive mindset because with his current state if he doesn't quit he will keep losing which will be the worst stage beyond his current state.

To be honest I also felt it before when I was gambling. If I accumulated all of it and just invest it on crypto or hold it instead of gambling it, I could have saved up some money, to spend on aomething much more important. That is also the reason why I keep on creating new accounts back then when I want to gamble so I couldn't back track all of the money that I gamble, cause I know that if I would compute it or look back to it I would just regret it if I would ever lose.

I am sorry that your friend lost a lot of money, but next time, gambling isn't something to rely on as a life changer, some gamblers believe that gambling is the only way they have to get rich in life, this is very wrong, derive fun from gambling with a very small amount of money. If you turn gambling into your primary source of income, you are in trouble because your greed will grow by 30% every day and get even worse after you win some money. There is also no escape because you will keep coming back for more.

Personally, I'm not so sure. I mean, sure, there's definitely a risk involved, but that doesn't mean you have to be some sort of badass to handle it. There are plenty of other factors at play, like luck, strategy, and self-control.
So what do you reckon? Is gambling just for the strong, or can anyone give it a shot? I think, as long as someone understands the potential dangers and is able to handle them responsibly, there's no reason why they can't try their luck at gambling. Of course, it's important to be honest with yourself about how much you can afford to lose. But as long as you approach it with a level head, there's no reason why gambling can't be a fun and potentially rewarding activity for anyone to try.

I've been there too, there were times that I thought I can make gambling as my source of income but it turned out to be the opposite. Just enjoy playing. Set limitations and remember to follow them. I wonder how it feels to make gambling a source of income, this is comprehensive to me because I can't imagine it gambling is a high-risk activity and shouldn't be taken seriously unless you win a big amount that one can save some amount as a base balance in case of loss and what to fall back to. -We need to build a mentality that will prevent us from falling into an emotional state that could make us become vulnerable to take an informed decision.

You mentioned losses being overwhelming and asking how people feel. I think the big problem with gambling is that people expect to win. With expectations comes disappointment. The one way to make sure that you are enjoying gambling is to use it as entertainment. You place a bet on a game, you watch the game, and it’s more exciting because you have skin in the game. Making a bet hoping to win money because you need it is a bad situation that you don’t ever want to enter into.

Huge disappointments come in the end if a person has bet the funds that he can't afford to lose. Sometimes we are carried out by our emotions and tend to bet more just so we can recover from our losses which usually end up in the worst situation. I agree that gambling is for strong people who can control themselves and don't put too much emotion into gambling. Right from the beginning, we should be responsible enough to set limitations and have the proper mindset toward gambling.

Personally, I'm not so sure. I mean, sure, there's definitely a risk involved, but that doesn't mean you have to be some sort of badass to handle it. There are plenty of other factors at play, like luck, strategy, and self-control.
So what do you reckon? Is gambling just for the strong, or can anyone give it a shot? I think, as long as someone understands the potential dangers and is able to handle them responsibly, there's no reason why they can't try their luck at gambling. Of course, it's important to be honest with yourself about how much you can afford to lose. But as long as you approach it with a level head, there's no reason why gambling can't be a fun and potentially rewarding activity for anyone to try.
I don't think gambling is for anyone but we all need to experience it ourself. It is the same for investing in stocks/cryptos, there is always a risk involved, especially if you can't handle volatility. With gambling, everything can go good and then you can have a bad streak, loose a lot of money and you will start tilting. Only invest/play with money that you are willing to loose. For me, gambling is just for fun and to get some excitement even when betting with very low amounts.

Gambling is not for the strong and sturdy. Gambling is for those who mastered self-control and has lots of extra cash lying around. You can be strong and sturdy mentally and emotionally and still see yourself giving in to the temptation of trying to chase your losses. If you have mastered self-control, you wouldn't even think of such a thing; you'll just move on and come back to enjoy yourself or try again once you have the spare money to throw at the casino. It's great that your friend knew what had to be done, and hopefully that realization of his be channelled to him finally establishing that business.

Gambling is like shopping for strong: money lost, and what you achieve is rarely definitely worth it, but you still like the process... I also had times when I lost quite a sum due to gambling, so I changed tactics upon my betting. Now I dont stake much money, while it is not easy to control the monety to bet...
