Gamble Responsibly

[Lanatsa]

I've had a friend who was a chronic addict to gambling, I've had the opportunity of advising him several times, he does give a listen ear, and will even agree with you that all you said is true, and that he would try his best to adjust, or quit.

But the problem then is that, all those talks and advices, always end at where it was discussed, after we part, he will continue with his gambling, normally like before or even worst than he used to...
One time, he told me that he appreciates me for all my care and advices, and wishes to do all that I told him to do, but always find it difficult to get himself to do it.

So sometimes. It's not really their fault that they are arrogant, stubborn or so, addiction is really a strong force, that sometimes, takes extra ordinary strength to break free from, and such strength is very rare.

It requires a great deal of effort to break away from such addictive patterns, and many do not find the strength to do it until they hit rock bottom and they lose their jobs, family, friends, health and even their freedom, and there are even cases in which losing literally everything is not enough and those people get completely consumed by their addiction, and when that happens there is nothing you can do as no matter how much you may want to help this person nothing will work if they are not willing to help themselves.

If you are that someone whose in the verge of addiction then this is the time that you should really do your best on stopping yourself mid way on which you would be able to avoid on possible disaster on the time
that things gotten worst and dont wait for it to happen if you wont really be liking to regret for the rest of your life.People do usually learn things when its too late which they should have done it earlier.
You should be responsible towards your actions because if you dont then you would be feeling up the consequences.

Not only on gambling for you to be that responsible but also in other things as well on which you would be needing to be responsible and be mindful on whats good and whats bad or simply
been thinking on advanced on what would be the outcome or results if you do go further which is a must thing to have when you do really have that kind of dealing
on something.

Anyhow we want to gamble we should just make sure that we do it responsible so that we don't later be a victim of greed that could make us to lose a lot of money due to the way to gambler irresponsibly. I have always make sure that I tried my best to bet in a way that is more profitable and less risky for me to avoid loses.

A gambler can become addicted for two reasons. One is an extreme win and the other can be an extreme loss. When a gambler wins he thinks he needs more winnings in the same way someone loses he tries his best to recover his loss. To avoid this a gambler must set a certain limit. If a gambler is able to keep control over himself, he will not become addicted. If a gambler gambles without being addicted to gambling, even if he loses, there will be no big loss. But when he becomes addicted, he loses everything.

Someone becomes a gambler addict, can be caused by many factors and reasons. the two you mentioned, are just part of the other factor. gambling, is part of the fun entertainment. a gambler, can become addicted due to many things. So, we can't infer from just two cases from what you said. in fact, someone who becomes a gambler addict can be caused by an escape from his problem. some others, becoming addicts can be due to their excessive activity, many of them do not realize that they are gambling addicts. so, we will find many cases related to gambling addiction. what you say, could also be a factor, an indication, or whatever it is.

Well, referring to what you said, to become a gambler who is able to control himself is a pretty difficult part. in fact, it is not easy. therefore, it takes responsibility and a high understanding of gambling itself. ideally, gamble within your means with money you can afford to lose.

there's nothing you will tell me that will convince me not a gambler or per person who is a gambler is not a greedy person because from what I notice is that any gambling person more store have the signs of greediness and that greatness is what make them noto cash out what the win at appropriate time

Yeah, same deal with limiting your funds and participation with gambling. If you failed to control yourself and become an addictive
gambler, there are many things that will be suffered.

It's tough to beat this addiction as it's needed to have huge determination to control and to avoid to keep moving forward, addicted gambler need mental help.

more on self-control and how you deal with your finances, it's a responsibility that you need to take care to prevent further damages in life.

Gambling addict will not listen easily, they are drowning on their greed and they need proper assistance and medication, I'm talking about the worst case scenario of being addict in gambling. As much as possible, you have to help yourself if you are still in the early stage of addiction, it's not too late for you. These reminders are being posted here repeatedly and I'd hope that many are already aware about the possible risk of gambling and the threat of its addiction. If you can help someone who are into gambling, please do so because you can save his/her life by guiding them slowly but surely.

It’s certain that gambling addicts are not on their right thinking anymore. Instead of controlling their gambling activities, they even push their selves to the maximum limit just to be satisfied with their greed. So threads like this would not be helpful anymore. But what these gamblers literally needed are their family and friends to help them in their worst phase in life, if they can’t achieved that, maybe the help of medical practitioners would be the last option.

I don't think so. I still believe there are responsible gamblers out there especially in this forum where this gambling addiction had been discussed a lot. They learned their lesson from their mistakes and they are now better gamblers who have not succumbed to greed.
Sports bettors especially, a lot of times we only gamble when there's a game and we don't really need to remain at betting sites for a long period of time. Just placing our bet is enough and then we rest and wait for the next game to happen again. Then, there is consideration like if we don't like the spreads or the game itself, we won't be betting at all.

That's correct. Discipline will be the key here. Without it, a gambler would just do it all in his own way without even thinking how much money he is losing in just one sitting. I've seen this kind of people and I think that is when I also learned to avoid becoming like them. IMO, that is an irresponsible way of spending money. Gambling is to entertain, not to empty our pockets/savings.

If it is a friend or one of our family, we should try to help him escape his gambling addiction.
Even though it may be hard, we still have to try.
Indeed gambling addicts will not think about curing their addiction instead they will continue to play gambling to satisfy their desires and to get lots of wins.
We also certainly don't want to see their lives destroyed because of gambling addiction, so we must continue to help them cure their gambling addiction.

It's something like a duty call since the person is close to us, if we can help him in any way that we can better to do and try.

Indeed gambling addicts will not think about curing their addiction instead they will continue to play gambling to satisfy their desires and to get lots of wins.

Gambling addicts most of the time continue denying this problem with them, they will not agree that they are already addicted and will try to find reasoning in defending their addictions, only a few are willing to admit and willing to accept the help in working it out to quit the addiction that they already suffering.

We also certainly don't want to see their lives destroyed because of gambling addiction, so we must continue to help them cure their gambling addiction.

Like what I've mentioned in my first statement, a kind of duty call because of love and care we feel about the person, even it's really hard to convince them but by keep trying chances to bring them back to reality and quit away from addiction is possible.

You know sometimes gambling can be this funny to some extent that one looses control of him or herself as a result of excessive wins or excessive loss. When this happens, you see a gambler being desperate to either win back their loss or continue gambling to win more but at this point, there should be some self restrictions from your own self. Limit your betting at that moment so as to avoid unforseen circumstances.

That is why it is advisable to always have a bet limit per game played for a day so as not to get addicted or hypnotized to betting more.

A gambler can become addicted for two reasons. One is an extreme win and the other can be an extreme loss. When a gambler wins he thinks he needs more winnings in the same way someone loses he tries his best to recover his loss. To avoid this a gambler must set a certain limit. If a gambler is able to keep control over himself, he will not become addicted. If a gambler gambles without being addicted to gambling, even if he loses, there will be no big loss. But when he becomes addicted, he loses everything.

It's more about the urge to win in my opinion and to trigger that, one doesn't need to win anything big initially but only the hope of winning something big makes someone gamble all the time and then they start becoming addicted to it, and after some time, they start feeling like they can't let go of it even if they want to.

That happens with everyone, the urge to win, but some people manage to control themselves from gambling a lot while others cannot do that and eventually become gambling addicts and then find it hard to come out of that.

Depends on a personality of a certain person because not all would really be having some concern in regards to other people on whats happening into them but if we are talking about a friend or family members then
it would really be that understandable that you would really be in concern and would be helping out because addiction isnt something that would really be that so simple to get out because once you do get shackled by it then it would really be hard to get out. This is why when you are a gambler then you should be mindful when it comes into your activity on which finances should be controlled and emotions as well.

Dont chase up losses and play according into your own leisure needs and not on having that intent on making yourself that rich via gambling because it cant really be just that possible unless if you are really that extremely lucky. Be responsible towards your actions and dont really be having that kind of mindset that you should play hard or more to make yourself able to cope up on what you had lost.
It cant really be just that simple on dealing it up if you are really keeping on chasing up.

[freedomgo]

Let's always take things as it were from each perspective, a normal gambling casino will never want to advise that gamblers should gamble with caution or responsibly.

It's your job as a player to gamble responsibly. All the casinos have to do is provide the necessary tools to achieve that and respect your decisions. The Curacao authorities aren't as strict as regulators from Malta or the UK, so who knows how much they pay attention to Responsible Gambling mechanisms. A quality casino does.

But a properly licensed casino allows you to self-exclude yourself and put various other restrictions on your betting account. That includes deposit limits, loss limits, time limits, etc. You can't lose if there are tools that prevent your from transferring more money than you configured.   

Mostly, casinos will never care as to how much you had lose, as long as they’re making profits, that’s good for them. That’s the reason why gamblers should always play responsibly and with caution, so that in times where you see yourself consistently losing, then take a break and call it a day. After all, it’s only you who will suffer  in the future if you set gambling as your priority, so gamble less and enjoy more, and always bet only on the amount that you can manage to lose.

When a gambler becomes an addict, it just means that he has not become a responsible gambler, it's that simple to understand. And it's not good when it continues to gamble.

       We know that many families are destroyed by being addicted to gambling, so there should always be control and discipline to not lead to this situation of addiction. You should only play with what extra money you have, not even the money for the family will be gambled away.

There are many disadvantages of excessive gambling that we need to talk about, and I do hope that newbies who plan to start gambling will learn something from this thread.

I keep telling those people close to mine that is not literally into gambling that if ever there is a chance that they decided to gamble, they must learn everything specially those you mentioned for their own good and
to remind them that this is not a profiteering instead a place to have Joy in lie .

Gambling is not for everyone,

gambling is for everyone mate but the thing is what kind of dealing everyone must be?
because this is for everyone to enjoy and have a happy life and not a happy living.

If you are someone like this, stay away from gambling.

the more we let people know to stay away is the more they become eager to have one .

Take a break.

Play for fun.

Don't chase your losses.

Stick to your Limits.

Gamble Responsibly.

and of course , Value their money .. This is for me the most important thing to understand when you are in gambling world.

Apart from the fact that there is people who does everything (or some things) with no measure, like the OP said talking about drugs, food, and of course gambling, and what other member said about some people being blamed because of their losses like the fault was theirs, when good or bad luck is decisive every time you gamble, there is another point to take into account:

Many people tend to compare themselves to others, but those who lose money don't usually talk about it openly. On the other hand, those who won a big money and don't care about discreetness talk it loud, creating the impression that it is more usual than it really is. Those who tend to compare themselves with others may feel forced to gamble until they achieve such difficult objectives, and some can get addicted or end having financial problems.

We will never say it enough times, but again, gamble responsibly!!

It's the opposite from what I have observed so far; Those who won doesn't blab about it that much, they will share it but no in a "broadcasted" way. On the other hand, those who had losing session, at first, they won't talk but later on they'll tell their friends about it, sometimes in a "broadcasted" way... well, these two does not really differ that much in relation to level of them  telling people if they won or lost.

I agree to what you said regarding the effect of comparing oneself to others when it comes to gambling. It does not bring good things specially if it isn't controlled.

Mostly, casinos will never care as to how much you had lose, as long as they’re making profits, that’s good for them.

Of course they won't. The world is a cold place and we feed off of each other. Your lose is someone else's profit. The casinos don't have to care. They are there to offer you a service. If you want to use that service to lose $1, fine. If you want to lose half a million, even better. Responsible players understand what they are doing, and will find ways to limit their online gambling exposure when needed. The casino must accept the set account limits, otherwise they are in breach of their license (if they have one and it's a reputable one) and probably their own T&C and Responsible Gambling practices.

That's right, friend, when someone experiences a loss, someone else will gain, this is an example in gambling where when we get a loss, the casino will succeed in collecting profits, it's just that when we win and succeed in taking profits, the casino does not experience a loss, but will the more profitable because the next day the gambler who gets the win will experience an even greater loss than what was won before.
Becoming a very responsible gambler is a must that everyone has so that what is done in gambling does not only bring losses but also provides learning that in every defeat there is a mistake and in every mistake there is a way or solution that can be taken if it is true. studied more deeply.
Experience can make a gambler have a sense of responsibility when they can think more clearly.

Gambling addiction is a curse, actually, any kind of addiction is a curse of a kind, but since we are talking about gambling, let's only talk about that. Gambling addicts don't even realize what they are doing with themselves or their lives, but they keep acting as per their desires and urge to gamble more and more.

One can only help an addict come out of the curse if they acknowledge that they are actually in a problem and need help, but usually, an addict doesn't admit that they are addicted but they keep resisting and that makes it difficult to assist them really.

A person who can have access to any casino and who can bet what they can is a matter of them, if they go to a casino that is fraudulent it is also something that is not recommended, here in the forum there is a casino that always scams the players who don't know, it's 1xbit, it doesn't matter what they bet, the casino will always have a way to scam them, so betting responsibly for me is looking for a casino with a good reputation and that I can have the option of winning and getting paid. That's what duelbits, rollbit and others are for, which are very good here and have a very high reputation.
