Do you blame someone for your gambling losses?

[maydna]

~snip~

Blaming friends or relatives who introduced us to gambling is not appropriate. The real decision lies with those of us who are curious about gambling. because I'm sure that if we ourselves don't find out and are curious about the gambling carried out by relatives or friends, they won't tell us or even invite us to gamble.
I am sure that every beginner gambler knows the risks of the gambling they are going to do. they use their own money. and they play with their own minds and stakes. but when you lose, why should you blame others. it's part of the game, and there are winners and there are losers. all beginners in gambling certainly know that.
anyone who wants to invite other people or wants to introduce gambling to other people. Always be wise to ensure that there are big risks in gambling games.

Indeed, it is not the right action to blame friends or relatives, but it has happened, and that is why we must always be careful before deciding. And if we already know that the risk of gambling is losing money, it is better for us not to gamble and immediately divert our attention to other things so that we don't think about gambling. Curiosity will arise within us, but if we can divert it to other things, it will disappear. And by keeping ourselves busy doing other things, we will never go to the casino to gamble because we already have pleasurable activities. But even if we gamble with a certain amount of money, even though we know that gambling carries the risk of losing money, we should be more careful in spending the money to gamble. And because we already know the risk of losing money, it will make us more careful when gambling and always prevent more losses.

For sure, and like what you just said if they only realize the impact of gambling,  staying away will always be the first option to them, but most of the time that's not the case, those people who suffered from addiction always find ways to blame someone,  they always have excuses about their addiction,  though sometimes when a person realizes what's messing up with him he'll find ways to quit away.

Until the time you already accepting your mistakes then you will be able to wake up with this mess in your life, though if you are not willing to accept pointing the blame  will always be your option,  there's no changes that will happen to you.

It is better to stay away from gambling than to experience the severe effects of gambling, especially since many people have experienced it. Some already know the impact of gambling, but even more want to gamble because they see the potential to win from gambling, so they decide to gamble more often. But if they decide to continue gambling, they must not blame other people because it is their own decision, and they must accept all the consequences and risks. They should be able to prevent this from happening because they already know what impact gambling can have on them, but they still want to gamble.

We are the ones who have to accept the risks and consequences of the decisions we make because we are gambling, and of course, we are also the ones who will feel the impact. If we don't want to experience the impact, we should not gamble and just leave it without any desire to try gambling.

The mother and the son after gambling away 5.6 million naira, that is about $8,000. When the reality dawned on them, they gave false information in petition, accusing someone of fraudulently transferring the fund from their Opay account to the sport betting account without their authorization.

Could this be a case of making someone pay for what they didn't eat or a case of double standard.

Bet as you can sustain and not allow your emotions have a better part of you.

Betting is in another way looks like trading and investment and in the process losing is inevitable in this three things I mentioned, because when looking at it from your own way of understanding and your own of doing anything concerning gambling, its seems that at this correct time if someone lose in gambling the person will find one or two blames for itself in gambling, so therefore in gambling you have to stake what you can afford to lose and same thing is an advice given to a trader to trade and invest what they can afford to lose to avoid blame from anyone, their is way you will gambling or spend your money and you start thinking that someone maybe you have rubbed or someone manipulate you, what happens is that you are curious that is why you gamble or bet what you can afford to lose

i will not blame other people for the losses i experience, because after all i am the one gambling and i should be responsible for whatever decisions i make.

but when we talk about cowards they usually shift their mistakes to others. just like the case where the woman gambled her money but ended up losing and she instead made up another story to get back the money she lost. it was proof that he was a coward and he was not prepared to lose his money.

everyone who gambles, if it is not the casino's fault, and they lose, they should be held responsible for what they do. don't look for other reasons for their losses because that's the same as being a coward.

This is the importance of stabilizing your mentality first before gambling. because a mental that is not strong enough to deal with defeat can cause cases like this to occur, some even steal or rob in order to return the money lost due to losing at gambling.
If you really can't afford to lose money, it's better to keep quiet and not touch gambling at all.

When someone decides to gamble, of course they want to double the money they have to make more money and if they are lucky they will win the bet they placed and if they lose then they must be able to accept it well, lest after they experience a loss on their bet they continue to make mistakes. What's even worse is taking other people's property so they can use it to gamble again.

What you say is very true, if we cannot afford to lose the money we have in gambling then it would be better for us not to recognize gambling. Indeed, not everyone can win consistently from their gambling and if they have lost from their gambling then they must be able to take responsibility with what they do, don't blame other people if they lose from their gambling.

As you said that people gamble because they want to double the money, so if they really win and double their money who will be the beneficial for this ? Of course the gambler who took the risk will be the beneficiary. And will he share his gambling profit with anyone ? Of course Not. Will you give credit for your winnings to someone? No way.

So if you lose in gambling, it makes no sense to blame someone else for your loss. Unless you are playing on a scam site, that's a separate thing but if you are playing on a trusted gambling site, both the win and loss is yours and not you have no rights to blame anyone and also not the gambling site for your loss.

This is why it would really be always best that you should really know on what you should be doing and it would really be that just right that you should really be realistic on the things that you've been doing because
if not then you would really be ending up on miserable specially on doing gambling. You would really be just that making yourself laughable on the time that you do blame someone on the things that you are the ones who could really be just blamed on. When you do gambling then it is really that depending into your own decisions on which no one had been that making you force on doing gambling. On the time that you do make
out some bets and make some deposit on a gambling site then it is really that actually your own choice and not theirs. It is really just that there are people who are really that loving on blaming
someone basing up on the things that they've been dealing with specially when they do get wrecked which is really that laughable.

[Volimack]

Gambling will be entirely at my own discretion it is not right to blame anyone here if you lose by betting. We need to be realistic and think for ourselves before betting. Whether I can succeed in this place or not if I think I will be harmed then it would be right to go away by myself. No one can force you to play against your will. If there is a possibility of losing money instead of blaming others try to deal with it.

[CODE200]

I don't blame anyone and even if you blame someone, what's the point of doing that anyway? Will the money that you've lost because you've put an all in on one of the spin because you were feeling lucky that time? If that's what happened when you and I blame someone, I think that everyone that's been doing that would've still be gambling non-stop to this day because they've got the infinite money glitch that will make them gamble forever. Also, it's really immature of us to blame people for what we've done because that's the shittiest thing that you can do and at the same time irresponsible because you don't have the guts and balls to face that it's your mistake and that you're not such good person after all.

I don't think anyone should be blamed for losing a bet just like losing money while trying to invest, the same thing happens with gambling and the truth of it all, is that no matter what you venture into there will be a little amount of risk in it. And i feel every single person should be responsible for their self. And everyone knows that is either you win or you lose when it comes to gambling. So as you been positive of winning also know that at the same time you can also lose that money. Gambling is a self made decision and  and that is why what ever it comes with should be taking like that.

so in essence they are suing the person for getting access to their opay account and transferring the money to their sports betting account? Wow! Isnt it funny.

I don't see a reason why they should be jailed since the money belongs to them. The only reason why they could possibly be sanctioned is because they had to drag someone to their mess. How on earth do you continue gambling snf you have Lost up to a million naira plus and you still continue gambling? This is why it is very necessary to set out an amount you wouldn't gamble above so you wouldn't end up losing all your wealth. I guess the reason why they continued playing until the lost such amount of money could possibly be that they were expecting to recover all their lost money and had to gamble until the unexpected happened.

Yeah, one of the reason is to try recovering the money that they already lost or they both addicted and just wanted to keep playing, and when they notice that there's nothing left they start to point finger to other people making it more look like someone access the account and move the money to a gambling site, which is not hard to prove nowadays as there's already security check that may allow the investigator to look on the devices and geophysical location where the last access has been done.

They can't just blame someone and let the investigator believe that they are not the one who are in-charge on those transactions.

Yeah, that's the best way of dealing with loss, and life in general to be honest.

The main issue with that it's that it's a difficult thing to do, so most people won't do it.

The majority will always do what's simple and easy instead of what's right. That's why most people live an average life.

Things like this often happen and it would be shame because other people who don't know anything and are not involved in the betting session they are carrying out are affected by the mistakes that cause them to lose.
If I saw such gamblers directly, I would strongly emphasize that the fault lies with themselves and not with other people, that way they will realize that it is not appropriate to blame anyone for the losses they experience.
After all, they lost because of their own uncontrollable ambition and emotions, so blaming other people will only cause more complicated problems.
I sure someone who is blamed will definitely not be able to accept it because they didn't do anything but have to bear the consequences of their defeat, maybe there will be dispute.

It would be much better to have sense of responsibility for every decision they have taken, they decided to risk money in gambling so that they also have to accept the risks and consequences.
If they don't want to admit mistakes in every decision they make and have lost some money then don't even think about trying gambling again.

Indeed, not everyone can win consistently from their gambling and if they have lost from their gambling then they must be able to take responsibility with what they do, don't blame other people if they lose from their gambling.

that's true, everyone who gambles of course wants to get a profitable win, and this is clearly what all gamblers want to get without exception, in fact, in my opinion, people who gamble with the aim of just having fun also definitely have little desire to be able to win. get a win, but they can still restrain themselves from the madness of gambling, because many gamblers want to win, they become crazy about gambling, which causes them to experience big losses.

gambling with your own desires and with the losses you get, it is not natural to blame other people, unless we are forced to gamble, but in my opinion no one will force us to gamble because it is an incorrect action. We hope that we gamble with money that we can afford to lose, because many gamblers gamble but are not ready to lose their money, so it creates problems for themselves. Also, they become addicted to gambling or experience a lot of losses because they themselves are not good at controlling themselves, so it is not natural to blame other people for the losses they have experienced.

[nara1892]

Yes I agree with what you said. We are adults. We are responsible for our own decisions. Any input and suggestions from outside are only as information for us to make decisions. And when you have made a decision, everything is at your risk. Just like when a friend tempts you to gamble and you become addicted, that is your own responsibility and fault. Unless you are able to prove it like your friend is forcing you and threatening you to gamble.

True, someone who is an adult should be able to consider everything they want to do before finally deciding, and if you have made a decision, it means that all the impacts that will occur at the end of all this are really our responsibility and become something that we must be able to accept because from the beginning we have agreed with ourselves to do it, on the other hand not all input and suggestions will always lead to goodness and therefore this is the importance of considering first before deciding, After all, someone who is an adult should be able to distinguish what to do and what not to do, and on the other hand, if some friends invite us to get involved in gambling by force or even threats then I think it's only natural that in the end you blame them when you experience a lot of problems as a result of gambling that you do under the coercion of others, but if at the beginning they did not force at all and only invited then we should be able to think that everything we did was based on our own willingness and availability, meaning that no one can be blamed except ourselves.

Well, in this case we can conclude that the gambler wins because of his own efforts, not because of other people's efforts, so if he wins, he can enjoy it himself without needing to share it with other people. Just be calm and enjoy your gambling without feeling that if you lose, you will blame your friends because friends you don't know your pattern of playing and their don't know how much loss you experience. Because the gambling you do is the one who creates the loss, so whether you win or lose, you have to be able to accept it without having to involve other people in this.

Blaming other people will only waste your time because your friends definitely won't respond because your friends don't feel guilty for the mistakes you made yourself. Losses are common among gamblers. If you don't want to experience losses and end up blaming other people, it's better not to play because it will disrupt your friendship ties just because you blame each other.

One as a conscious player must know and realize that the decisions made in the game are one's own responsibility, there is no other, we cannot be people who are looking for culprits where there are none, since we have our money and we We are destined to do things very well, and every mistake we make is ours, not someone else's. One of the things that causes many problems is when you go to the casino with friends, friends, they are always going to talk, they are going to give certain advice, to do one thing or another, but it is not like that, things must be very Well, if we should pay attention, if in the event that we follow the lead of someone, a third party or something other than us, that decision becomes ours, and we must accept whatever consequence it entails, be it good or bad, we must accept it, then this is what we should see.

Now when we accept certain things we can affirm that all the Responsibility is Entirely ours, it belongs to no one else. If we win, are we willing to share it with the person who told us? I think not, things are very different and they seem different, for those things we must do whatever it takes to be determined in our decisions, in this order of ideas , always what we do in our game is our responsibility, In fact , that's why I say that when we are in a casino and we see someone playing, we shouldn't say Anything, or give them advice, or anything, because we don't know how their reaction will be, they are people who don't know us, or they are people who Maybe they are very delicate and we cannot do things that we do not want them to do to us later, or that is why that saying comes up a lot that says that "The peepers are wooden", what they say and what they affirm is very wise. , because things in reality should be like this.

Yes, but I think it's more of a psychological and emotional behavior in their part that's why they tend to blame someone, and can't take their losses. But there could be also others to take their responsible for their losses.

Or it could be something that we call self-preservation. I mean it could mean that individuals will likely protect themselves, not just in gambling, but anything in life and not attributed the bad decisions they made to themselves.

I think it's more more complicated. Engaging in gambling is not like jumping out of the bridge, you know. Someone might think that he wants to gamble because of self-preservation. If he owes someone $1,000 and is told that he'll be killed if he will not pay by tomorrow, but he has only $200 at the moment, he'll try to make $1,000 through gambling "out of self-preservation". I'd suggest to pay $200 and promise to pay the rest later, But, of course, if he cares about his self-preservation he shouldn't be dealing with such people in the first place.

interesting example and in a good story it would work out
but in a bad story the guy goes gambling, loses all the money and have to run away for a different city to avoid being beaten (or worse!)

I think gambling is most of the times done as enterteinment or fear of life, as a way to run from responsibilities

[Mame89]

We have been introduced to a lot of things but still, we only choose to do the things we like, which means we also enjoy being at that situation. Gambling is not wrong, anyone can gamble but one who gambles must know their financial tolerance level so that they can spend the right amount on the entertainment part. If they let their own emotions to take control of their actions then we are the only one to be blamed not the one who introduced to it.

I know about gambling from friends and maybe many other gamblers definitely know about gambling from friends and other people too. But that doesn't mean that when we lose we have to blame the person who introduced us to gambling, whatever results we get from gambling are entirely our own fault. It's the same when we trade, when we lose we shouldn't blame the person who introduced us to trading.

Therefore, we need knowledge to be able to know and manage our finances well, so that when we experience a loss it is our own strategy and decisions that are to blame. Gamblers must have principles, so that whatever happens with gambling, we can introspect ourselves and rearrange strategies rather than blaming other people. You can blame other people if they force something according to their wishes, but in my opinion as responsible gamblers we will not be influenced by other people's coercion because we have our own strategies and goals. That's why we must have principles in gambling so that we are not influenced by other people's strategies

[hedgeh0g]

Well, in this case we can conclude that the gambler wins because of his own efforts, not because of other people's efforts, so if he wins, he can enjoy it himself without needing to share it with other people. Just be calm and enjoy your gambling without feeling that if you lose, you will blame your friends because friends you don't know your pattern of playing and their don't know how much loss you experience. Because the gambling you do is the one who creates the loss, so whether you win or lose, you have to be able to accept it without having to involve other people in this.

Losses are common among gamblers. If you don't want to experience losses and end up blaming other people, it's better not to play because it will disrupt your friendship ties just because you blame each other.

When entering and playing gambling, we must take responsibility for our actions there, as well as losses. Only us and no one else. I often hear that someone was brought into the game by a friend and because of him they lost a lot of money, this is not correct. Our friend didn’t force us to play; we pressed the spins and bets button ourselves, not him. Another interesting point is that if he won the jackpot, he could completely forget about his friend. It turns out that this is to some extent a mirror situation in which everyone can show their true colors.

As for me, I can recommend some bets to a friend, but I will not insist that he make them, but only suggest them. Moreover, suggest that he do this with a small amount of money, and also warn that addiction is possible if he loses. Besides, if such games were recommended to me, I would never blame my friend.
