Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting

[xSkylarx]

Short hut precise way on how to breathe and how to check yourself whether if you are still capable or not to gamble. As a player, it is your responsibility to check on yourself because no one else would other than you. You should always assess whether you have enough budget allocation for the important things before allotting a portion in gambling. Otherwise, you'll end up messing your finances.

the mistake of most gamblers is this one. because now access to bank accounts and online casinos is very easy. So when we play in front of the screen, we can have no control over how much we have spent in the casino.
This problem can be overcome when gamblers are aware that their financial management will get worse. when everything has happened, it is hoped that gamblers will play more wisely.

Cashing in is really easy unlike before, but there are casinos that are only accepting cryptos, in which you still have to buy those cryptos before you can deposit, meaning there are extra moves, and that will also lead to the gambler not depositing more. But again, depositing money right now is very convenient, so no matter what you decide to play, you can just easily deposit. That is why it is better to have control over yourself, practice it like setting a budget, or also try to create a habit on which you can control your spending.

These are good advise to rest the hotting brain on gambling. Some time go out with friends and enjoy yourself with them. That budget would not work for chronic gambler, although he will set budget of the day before when the actual capital has been exhausted, then the reserved or the left over will be visited. The only advise I will go so such person is to removed his mindset on the gambling. Let the friends take him out to do other activities and trying to make him to forget gambling.
Because if he is there in the casino hall or drugs is another issue for gambler. Those who are from the cultist background cannot stay with drugs so the best thing to do for them is to take to a cool place and play a simple blues for him to listen and forget about it.

Also you will discover that many gambler have pleasure in spending money extensively on gambling because they will want to be noticed by others as being influential, that is another factor they don't know that such happens as a result of pride, they will look for the money they dont have to gamble on things they don't need in other to entice those that don't even care about their source of income, all this often happebs whenever they are amidst their friends.

Unfortunately on your last point, people can often turn to gambling situations (especially when online betting) because they actually suffer from loneliness and are looking to add a bit more excitement into their life. You're right on that point, but perhaps to expand a little - try to find a new hobbie or activity that is away from the usual environment where you gamble and you must make a conscious recognition at the beginning if you are going near any gambling triggers. Triggers could be drinking alcohol, feeling bored or visiting a certain location. You must make extra effort to avoid those scenarios as you cut loose.

If you are aware that you are lonely and then bad things can happen later on like you will find yourself playing inside a casino and eventually lose money, you better find a companion now. It's either you invite someone to come over your house or you are the ones who will go outside.

If it's about being excited, there are alternatives which has a lite consequences only compared to gambling. They say finding a new hobby helps but you add something that I never seen before and that is, that hobby must be away from the usual environment. I agree on that because it's easy to put down the new hobby and pick up your phone, pc or laptop to play gambling for a while. I don't know that drinking alcohol can trigger it too but usually, alcohol can give us a good mood alone and we never look for others anymore.

This is just the basics, but anyone should be aware of it:

Budget: set it BEFORE you start gambling and stick to it.
Have a break from time to time, it is important to let your brain stop and consider.
Avoid drugs / drink as much as possible, they will make you loose some control innevitably.
Seek help if you feel you are no longer in control. Make a phone call to a friend or go out and speak with someone.

Anything else anyone can think of? Like... read this post before gambling?

Agree with that you need to always set your limitation when you're going to gamble because that could easily add up, if you didn't set your budget you could easily lose all of your money since if you lose a game you just wanted to win back all of your loses and probably end up just losing more. But if you set a budget or limitation on your game you might win the game or lose it but it wasn't actually a big amount but just the budget that you set and you could afford to lose.

The most important thing in gambling is to have fun and get entertainment since it's probably the main reason for some players aside from winning just wanted some past time. For sure getting a drink might be one of the worst things since that could easily affect your decision making and probably that is when you make the wrong decision and end up losing all of your money.

This is so on point.

Short hut precise way on how to breathe and how to check yourself whether if you are still capable or not to gamble. As a player, it is your responsibility to check on yourself because no one else would other than you. You should always assess whether you have enough budget allocation for the important things before allotting a portion in gambling. Otherwise, you'll end up messing your finances.

A player must also take a break and check if his mental capacity is enough to take another play and bet. Because if you will bet or play with a tired mind that can't think properly, it will be a recipe for disaster. You don't want to regret big time later on because of this. The same way with involving illegal drugs and liquors because it can affect your way of thinking and of course, the decision making skills that you have.

Self-assessment is a prerequisite to staying ahead of the game and avoiding possible fall over into addiction,  and as a matter of fact,  one needs to have a limit set for each session and a budget set for each round or period,  putting both in practice will help a gambler a whole lot since gambling is high risk and the chase of any direction beyond you stipulated time set can lead you to further lose and hurt at the end.

But with those limits in check,  one will always have a way to avoid that crisis as a way of principle to avoid such,  but without that system in place to check the gambling activities of users,  it becomes easy to go excessively even though it is time to turn off from gambling or take a break from it.

It's your will that matters, if you can do it the right way then you can easily work it out and allow yourself controlling your gambling sessions, it's on you if how you set the limits and how you see if you are really following it. With your own assessment, you will be able to strictly implement that will to stop and avoid any excess money and time when playing.

Outsmarting yourself in getting into trouble, following your set goals and limitations, avoids you to become addicted.

I also think that it is a matter of will , for me a good game or a good game Session is when we Control it , it doesn't matter if we are losing in the game, if we calculate everything we can be able to play , have fun even if we lose , what It is bad when we let ourselves be carried away by emotions , and especially when we lose. If we lose , we can feel fruitful, sad or want to recover. If so, sometimes it is dangerous to play because we can feel tempted to bet more than we can Afford lose , and that's when every player's mistakes begin.

Honestly, this are things that are easier said than done, it is very easy to tell a gambler not to gamble based on their emotion, but the truth is that, most gamblers seem not to know the exact difference, that is, they do not exactly know when they are gambling based on reason and when their emotion is at play..

What is more simple and easy to understand is to never take gambling too serious, that is making winning a do or die affair, as I believe this is where most gambling problems starts from, wanting to win at all cost has made many gamblers not to only loss large sums of money, but also turned into chronic gambling addicts.

You can also add awareness of the surroundings and time.  Avoid gambling when you are drunk since it takes out rationality and to have quality judgment over things.

When the intention is to have fun, then it has something to do with emotion.  I think it is ok if a gambler intend to gambling because he wanted to experience some fun from engaging in gambling activity.

I think there is a need to take gambling as a serious matter.  Because if we failed to even control ourselves once, we might suffer a huge amount of losses.  We can still have fun while taking gambling as a serious matter.

On the contrary hardcore gambler never end up in following all these rules because when we are in the zone we forget the reality around us and keep playing and playing. Either it is for fun or for the financial gains things could rig up in the gambling at anytime. The advice is nice but honestly no one end up following them. It takes whole lot of time to understand how we could control our minds. The only quicker way is to have that loss, the very first loss when gamblers eyes are wide open. This can only happen when user is playing and that happened naturally while playing. Because it’s money game and only a financial loss can set the proper zones. Hope so every gambler here know the whereabouts and gamble responsibly.

If many gamblers had done this, they would have decided to take a break. But what we see is not so because the losing gamblers are thinking of depositing more money to recover their losses which will be difficult.

And it's true that there are some good principles that we must adhere to so that we don't cross the line and can prevent losing a lot of money. But sadly, not many can do it. But we have to try to do it because if we don't, we will also experience the same thing as them.

That sounds easy to put into practice but hard to work with, because I know a lot of the advice we get in this thread of course, but not many gamblers will hear it when they're feeling engrossed in gambling, that's why it's hard to advise someone who's crazy about gambling even more so choosing to go even further following their passions and keep playing until the very end, if gamblers have no principles it will be difficult to control themselves.

Maybe there are only a few people who will hear gambling advice not to play too deep and most people find it difficult to accept advice, that's why before gambling you should have a principle to be able to play has certain limits, for example limiting the gambling budget knowing when to stop playing and start playing. it will help gamblers not to go too far in gambling.

Indeed!  If a gambler is too hooked on playing, he often forget to have a break, since he is too focused on what he is doing.  I also think that a gambler should have guidelines and consider that there is much more important than gambling.  This way, a gambler will be able to avoid putting all his money to gambling and allocate only the fund that he can afford to lose.

I do not think that there is someone who will follow the advice of not going deep unless that person quit gambling.  If a person continuously playing in a casino, the time that the person will play deep will happen since I think before the player goes into that situation, everything have to develop, and that development happens overtime while the gambler is playing.

Your words are absolutely true. Gamblers doesn't care good advice, he never takes it into his mind when he is engrossed in gambling, he forgets all other thoughts because at that time gambling has something to gain or lose, so he never wants to divert his attention. Again there are some gamblers who do not follow any rules and regulations. But one common thing that almost everyone knows that when a gambler loses all his money, he begins to experience his delusions. Then he regrets with his gambling behavior in various matters. But if the gamblers could have been aware of the matter in advance, he would have been saved from his loss.

The advice I got to get rid of gambling was to stop myself from gambling after losing a bet. But when a gambler becomes completely addicted to gambling, he has to abstain for some time. Many people become emotional after gambling loss, in which case it is necessary to discuss with his friends or other people. But he can make a good decision within certain limits. So a gambler must be well advised when placing bets first. And after setting a budget he has to bet and if he bets according to that budget he won't lose much if he gambles.

more gambling addicts can not control their budget for betting. for example, you deposit your $1k to the casino. but in reality, it's because you don't have good control, even when you invite your friends to place bets. it won't help if your friend is also a gambling addict. you can bet more when you are excited to play.
self-control is important, but difficult for anyone who is already addicted. However, if you want to walk out on a losing streak, you have to figure out for yourself when the time is right. More and more gamblers find it difficult to get out of the game when they get a few wins.

Yes, it's true, for that I say it's useless to give advice to gamblers who have gone too far like that, because I have a friend like this, he never even has time to relax let alone have enough rest, he spends a lot of time gambling from people's small business money his parents, even though he should know that there is life out there that he needs to know and communicate with others, not always sitting on the couch playing slot machines in online casinos using his cell phone, that's what makes it difficult for me to advise him as my friend.

My friend seems to be out of control anymore so he can't control his urge to gamble, that's why I always remind myself every time I gamble to stop gambling when I play too far and don't be like my friend.

the problem is that people, before entering the world of gambling, already have an objective: to make big profits and thus have a lot of money. with that thought in mind, people create an account at the casino, make a deposit and start playing, that person doesn't want to hear about advice on gambling addiction, bankroll management, stay calm and not create high expectations about gambling, no look at gambling as a means of earning extra income or get-rich-quick scheme. This person doesn't want to know any of this. for many people when they create a casino account and start playing, they do all or nothing.

to be clearer, if they put 1000$ in the bank and decide that they are going to put 100$ in each bet, they already put in their heads that the 1000$ has to become a lot, the 100$ they put in a game, and if they lose they will put others 100$, when they lose all the bankroll (the 1000$) that they deposited in the casino,, they will put more money and with the same objective: to win a lot of money. and if they lose they'll put more money in, so it's not because they're putting money in for fun, they want profit. what's next is they sell everything they have to keep playing or they're going to borrow money to keep playing

I have applied that strategy and it works, and it's very good, you should always apply it, when I play what I do is be able to have my mood at 100% because if I bet when I'm angry or in a bad mood that doesn't help me to Nothing decides when a bet is good or not, and what it does is make me lose all the time.

In order to control your bets, it is best to put an amount that does not hurt to lose it, for example, 10 dollars is enough for me to lose, from there no more, because 10 dollars is a very significant amount to have a large profit or loss, which is I see something like an investment.

The longer the breath we take, the more we are carried away by the atmosphere of gambling, that's what I feel, and for me it's actually dangerous when we get late and don't realize it all. One other thing that I feel is (I am a smoker) and when I know that I have consumed a lot of cigarettes then at the same time I have been carried away by emotions. There may be many different experiences, and I usually deal with them by pausing and then taking a breath so that I can return to self-control and not get carried away by my emotions.

We have to be in good self-control, and for me the mind is the center of control and so far I can handle that and stay within a certain limit that I can't go over.
