Gambling is a choice.

[worle1bm]

The thing is.... it should not come down to the point where you are looking for reasons to blame someone else for your losses. You should gamble for fun and enjoy it, if it is not fun anymore... then you should stop.

Casinos have to make money to keep the doors open for you to gamble and they use the house edge to do that... people should just accept that and play games with a more favorable RTP... if they want to play for a longer period.  

Right you gamble at your own risk which we know in the starting only but sometimes people can't handle their loss as they have wagered more which they can't afford to loose so they start blaming casinos for it but that brings no good to them.As you said it should be in fun manner always with stop limits and you should enjoy it.

When it comes to losing to the amount of the stop limit for a player, especially a very gambling person, the thought still arises in his head that he has already lost a lot, it can’t be that he’s not so lucky, it doesn’t happen  ! 
According to the theory of probability, if he goes over the stop limit quite a bit, then he will immediately win back.  And this thought usually haunts the gambler.  And he decides to go beyond the stop limit, and after that, if he is not lucky again, he thinks that he will calmly stop playing.  But it often turns out that he is “unlucky again”, but the thought in his head still persuades him to continue and try again. 
And then everything goes like an avalanche. 
And of course, it is important to still force yourself to come to terms with the loss and stop playing on time, when the process has not yet gone according to a catastrophic scenario.  This can end up in a lot of trouble for a lot of people.  And so it happens. 
And quite often.  Especially with not very experienced players.

My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??
Do you wish the site can refund your money??

I wish I can take back the money but we don't have a time machine yet so that won't happen. All we can do is swallow the truth that we made a mistake and just get over it. Sleep it through if you must just so you will stop thinking about it. The next day, start fresh, don't even think about what you lost, and try to chase them back by betting larger amounts. A reset should be back to your normal betting amount. I do feel sad when I lose a bet but the regrets should not stay because your focus will be gone.

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

It is true. Advertisements, streamers, and forums like this, are just pointing you out to reputable gambling sites but no one said you must go in and gamble your way. Responsible gambling should not be forgotten because it will be key to avoiding addiction too.

In fact the players have various motivations to do it some do it for fun to pass the time, others to earn extra income some are professional players but it must be a free personal choice

Even if they do it for fun, that doesn't mean they can use their money to gamble. They have to pay attention that there is a big risk of losing at gambling and if they can't control themselves, they can lose a lot of money, which has been proven by the many people who lose at gambling. If you still want to play gambling, you need good control not to lose much money. Playing gambling is a choice; no one forces you to play and let other people play.

An experienced gamblers will common eye the little things we out in consideration while gambling and concentrate on his bet he's playing, that alone takes their time enough and they are much satisfied in such, it's not every gambler that always focus on the amount he loose from the one invested and the games he won, thinking about that alone will be a big discouragement for some people and that's why they don't rely on what they get through gambling for their sustainability, they always have their own means of income they are fine with.

Gambling is a very old and traditional form of entertainment. However, many people lose control of their lives while gambling and their entire lives are filled with problems because of this behavior. Many people can't quit gambling despite making money and many obstacles. Many people try to stay away from gambling addiction but in the end it becomes difficult to stay away from gambling, it becomes more like an addiction and puts life at risk. Therefore, before entering the casino, enter with the mentality of losing and winning. Both sides have to take risks in winning or losing this game.

You're just like saying if gambling is bad because you're generalizing gambling is make most people become addicts and that will ruin their life. Gambling is good as long as the gambler have a good self control and know the reason why they need to gamble, this gambler will not have a problem and they can feel enjoy during or after gambling. Nowadays there are many games which related to gambling, but people said it's not, it's called gacha.

Gambling does more harm than good in people's lives yet people get addicted to gambling for an invisible addiction. Gamblers in my country usually gamble in the traditional way, in this case gamblers are usually addicted to gambling with cards or dice. But most of the poor family members become more addicted to gambling and eventually cause serious problems in their families. Gamblers in my country usually abuse their wives to collect their gambling money which leads to divorce in most gambling families.

     -    This often happens to gamblers who lack self-control and self-discipline. But if they can do that duality, for sure when they reach the limits they will stop and not try to play anymore.

That's why the mindset of a responsible gambler should be that when the money is used up and go home, don't stay at the online casino any longer and just come back in the next few days. Maybe when they come back they will be lucky. That's how it should be anyway.

[Haunebu]

The title is seriously dumb as hell frankly speaking. Who isn't aware of the fact that gambling is a choice? Everything is literally a choice in life. Op should have renamed the title to something more interesting.

Also, the incident that he mentioned isn't something new. Such stuff always happens here and there in the gambling world which is why gamblers should always invest only what they are willing to lose.

However, the majority don't follow this rule and end up regretting it later on.

This is really the problem, as they can't control themselves. Either they will go back on that day or the next day, or they are able to control themselves, which is more likely the case for a few of them, and a few of them are really addicted to gambling. That is why you should always have a proper budget or, like, have someone control your funds or monitor you just to be safe that you can't spend more money out of it.

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

Generally, if money is lost in gambling, then the gambler is not supposed to like it, just like if I lose money instead of profit in gambling, then I feel very bad. But gambling will lose money, it is a normal rule of gambling. There are some rules in gambling under which everyone has to adapt and be included in gambling. But I don't know whether there are any rules under gambling to refund that money after losing in gambling. I have faced gambling losses many times till date but till date I have not seen any instance of money refund. However, I don't know if refunds can happen in traditional or offline gambling.

It should be a personal choice.
But unfortunately, gambling often uses not quite honest attraction of attention.

For example, if ordinary people arrange gambling on the street or fairs, then their forgers act in collusion with them. They pretend to be passers-by and then start gambling. At the same time, the manager of this game plays along with them. That's how the interest in society heats up. And then, seeing such an example of a lucky win, weak-willed people often begin to participate. They are literally drawn into the game because they believe that the winnings are fair.
Everyone needs to be careful and know such schemes of deception.

Online gambling and those guys are very big different. I visit this thread because of the topic. Yes gambling is a choice and not by force which is spelled out by the online and offline line casino halls. But those rogues are not gamblers but scammers, they know what they are doing. They gave a random numbers for you to pick and let you win at first and changed everything for you to loss everlasting. Those are tactics of scamming. They have not carry those methods to the casino hall but always on the market place and the school environments. They used different objects to carry out their criminal activities.
Online casino never compelled anyone to play game but those rogues compelled and received people to play those games. Most of them are even using magic to lure customers to come. So when you see those guys please don't go closer always be on your moving track.

Very correct and exactly the same thought I shared in my comment earlier, It is even a mistake on OPs part to compare or liken those rogues to gamblers, from all indication, they are nothing but scammers, I've witnessed a similarly scene where a sales girl used her bosses money to join in such a Game, at first, they made her believe she was winning, until when they noticed she was about to request for her winning so as to leave, they immediately turned the table against her and she start losing, not that she was actually losing, they were making her to lose, until she was left with nothing, the guys disappeared and she started carrying, when asked why she even played such game in the first place, she said it was like she was hypnotized, that she didn't actually know what she was doing until those guys left.
I felt pity for her and in other for her not to lose her job, I had to support her with more than half of the amount she lost to the scammers.

[macson]

So, just last week, this lady fell a victim and she was shouting and crying, the had obviously emptied her pocket and even gotten her phone from her in the process of the gambling.

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

if you are forced by someone to do gambling, you can guide and report this to the authorities because there is an element of coercion, but if you gamble fully consciously and deposit a certain amount of money with high expectations you will win, so there is no element of coercion in that, you it is the one who must be fully responsible for all the consequences of the gambling that you do, it's all just a matter of mindset.

[danadc]

Gambling is up to us whether we do it or not. As long as you enter this game, you should know that this is a game that will quickly lose the money you bet on it and you can also quickly increase your money here. It depends on whether you get lucky in your gambling.
Therefore, what you bet here is that you are ready to lose that you will not regret, as if the money you use here is not needed, this is the mindset you should have as a gambler entering a casino in the crypto gambling space.

OP's case is a bit different from normal gambling as it's obviously a scam. So, this is a comparison between choosing to gamble and choosing to get scammed.
When you go to a casino or an online gambling site, most of them are regulated and relatively fair, as long as you can accept that your odds are lower than they appear because of the house edge.
Street gambling is usually scam meant to steal your money and these people will lure you in promising free rolls and stuff and then they'll steal from you saying there was no free roll, you were supposed to play for money from the beginning.

Street gambling is very dangerous as we all know that there's no rebate and bonuses I'm street gambling, some of a street gambling is a scamm one and the best example of that are table game. Like my country once you play in table game then you will loss a lot because of their games. When you first saw in the table then the owner of the table want to blow your mind and they will give you a chance to win but in the long run if you can't control your self you will loss.

In the games that are from the Street I do not recommend that they do it , because that is as you say , it is very likely that there are scams, there is no control by any Organization, they can do what they want , because they have the support of many people they hire, and most of them don't have Controls to defend , there's Everything on the street that doesn't have normal casino control , I don't play because I don't like to risk so much , Besides , I'm not one to be on the streets , the people who are in the streets handle more the dialect, Conversations , one does not fit much into the things they do.

Not sure about that refund, unless there's a certain promotion that you participate as even you lose you can have your money back, there's some gambling site who creates this kind of promotion, but in a regular basis, there's no gambling site where you can ask for a refund after you lose your bets, that's the risk inside gambling, the chance of losing is really unpredictable though most of the time gamblers choose to have a 50/50 chance but most of the results or results still in favor of the house.

Although I hate to admit it  but you were right. Problems like this are always there even in different community specially when there is money involved, and since gambling is very prominent in every society, it is bound that this will happen sooner or later. Even if we say that we always here this kind of warnings regarding "gamble what you can afford to lose", it is quite common to hear stories such as they are tempted by their own greed, and could not control their emotions ended up regretting their very own decisions. Which is why I don't really like to meddle if people wanted to do whatever they want since they will learn their own lessons maybe sooner or later but that's their own situation to handle.

That is what separates experienced gamblers from inexperienced gamblers. Those experienced in playing gambling will make their calculations so they don't experience a lot of loss. But those who only play gambling for fun also have no desire to chase victory because their target is just to have fun playing gambling. But it will be different for people who want to get money from gambling. They will be eager to get it even though they know it will definitely require a lot of money. And that's where they must understand that playing gambling is each person's choice.

Petty people are found both online and offline, one should stay away from them. It was woman's fault to bother with these people in first place, just like if you get scammed online, gullibility is to be blamed.
