How was your first experience with gambling?

[Agbe]

Gambling is a game that has an addictive effect. Most people who have joined gambling sites will find it difficult to get out of the gambling circle. It doesn't matter how much you lose at gambling, as long as we still have money, we will continue to gamble

Can you share your first experience playing gambling? and who told you about gambling sites?

I myself know gambling sites from my own friends. I idly and try to deposit. Starting from playing with a little money, after a while I didn't know how much money I had spent playing gambling

Most of us were introduced to gambling site by friends. I joined gambling because of the huge amount my friend won in the process of gambling. And my first gambling was nice because there was a first time lucky winner in the game and I won about $120 so I was excited. But after the first win I stopped for the day and went home with the cash which I withdrew in the casino hall.  After my first day of gambling and o won the amount, I went back to the casino hall for the mindset to win again but luck run out from me and I loss all the cash I that brought to the hall. The experience was nice and bad because I won at the first day and loss for the second days.

Mine was actually cool and I won on virtuals on my first attempt to play... let's draw the clock to the times I was enclosed in a brick house....I actually ran in for a gambler though, and It came right through.
Thereafter, I began to try some brilliant combos on my own funds when I really had free space,.. I've not really had a bad one but though, buh I've been in situations where peeps be begging for cash to pay Thier way home after squandering all they had on them...that alone thought me alot. I also paid severally for damages when a customer was found not capable of paying for his debts.

Oh wow, so you won on your first try!

You could have been the mythical gambler that wins against the casino by never gambling again.

My guess is that you continued gambling and lost all the winnings

Can you share your first experience playing gambling? and who told you about gambling sites?

My first experience when playing gambling was arguably not good enough, because at that first time I lost 100 USD, not because of losing but because of a system error from one of the online gambling platforms which now seems to have gone bankrupt. However, this experience taught me that choosing a credible gambling platform is a must. And now I've found a good online gambling platform and I can say that my experience was quite satisfying using their services.

Mine was a total disaster lost $50 on the first day while playing dice. You might be one of those lucky won who won the first day. After my intial loss it took me sometime to realize that I suck in luck base gambling. I then shifted to sports betting, it was not that easy at first but gradually it is working fine for me as of now. I still stay away from gambling that is completely luck based.

I've noticed this from my close friends when they see someone playing gambling for the first time. They will say that usually the first person to play will definitely win, that's what I often hear. Then they say to bet within certain limits, and with the minimum amount of bets possible.
I've also even talked to their own friends, they will say negative things, like when they want to buy snacks or whatever they will say they don't have money, but a few moments later they will play gambling. People like this will usually get a lot of advice from other friends, or even when advice is no longer heard they will stay away from people like that.

Yes, when a gambler no longer has boundaries, they will even harm others around them. They work, they have an income, but for their daily life they have to borrow here and there because their salary is spent on gambling.
However, we ourselves can control ourselves, we cannot depend only on others, because other people may have their own busy lives. I know it's hard, but hard doesn't mean impossible, right?

Perhaps, that person will be left by his friends because they can't be nice to them. They are not a good friend if they have money to gamble but can't share what they have when we need it. We don't need friends like that. We've seen this happen to us so often that we prefer not to see it too often.

And that beginner's luck is waiting for the novice gambler to start their first gamble and give away a win. That will make novice gamblers want to return another day because they still want another win. Since then, they have started to think about getting more wins, and of course, they will use more money to gamble.

~snip~

Yes, but still in the end they will be carried away by the situation itself, meaning that unconsciously they will be carried away by their own desires without thinking that they are using money to bet on this game. When they are in a game, they probably won't really care about their fate if they lose in the end. It is indeed very difficult to be able to control yourself in gambling because the hope of victory seems to be right in front of your eyes. Someone's level of happiness about a win is very different and I think the sensation is the main factor that really influences them, as you said that everyone has different sensations in every game. To be honest, before I had almost stopped gambling because I was bored with some games, but when my friend introduced me to a game that I just found out about there, I started to get back into it because the game was really fun and had an extraordinary sensation. It seems that one day I will be able to stop gambling when I am really bored in several games.

Many people will often be carried away by their desire to win more often than lose. They need to learn to control themselves while gambling can help them not spend a lot of money because that's what many people always recommend. But unfortunately, that only applies to a minority of people, while others will lose control of themselves and lose a lot of money.

And in your case, curiosity beats the boredom of playing gambling and makes you return to gambling again because you have found a new sensation in playing gambling. This is normal because it can make someone return to gambling even though he really wants to stop gambling. You have to control yourself because getting a new sensation usually keeps someone there longer. And if that happens, we already know what risks we will get, so be careful.

Choosing a good and reliable platform to gamble at first is very difficult.  Because at that time no one is well familiar with gambling and also doesn't know well about the platforms. and in this case many face loss as you have. It doesn't matter because people learn by making mistakes. who does not make mistakes cannot learn anything good. but now you should choose a trusted gambling site and gamble there safely. but in this case, one thing to note is that you should never panic and keep yourself under control from gambling

Gambling using limits can save us from problems that can arise after we finish playing gambling. And with those limitations, you can control yourself from emotions, which can also increase drastically so that you won't lose too much money. Our first experience playing gambling is varied and different, especially when the situations we experience are also different, so after getting that first experience, we must learn what we need to have so we don't become addicted. But most people will return to gambling after their first experience because they get a different sensation that they never got before. And only limits and self-control can help him not get too deep into gambling.

Yes, but still in the end they will be carried away by the situation itself, meaning that unconsciously they will be carried away by their own desires without thinking that they are using money to bet on this game. When they are in a game, they probably won't really care about their fate if they lose in the end.

How come when they are already limiting their selves? If they still can't follow it, they will realize that there is something wrong with them and maybe they will seek for a professional help this time. When we gamble we do use a money but it is also possible to play using fake money although there is no thrill on it anymore.

The right way to gamble is like that or to not care whatever the results you will get. This makes you move on easily. You already stopped gambling before so I believe you can do it again. You should believe on your self too. Meanwhile, just continue following the tips that you saw or hear along with your own ways. Good luck!

Indeed, when some of his traits seem selfish for prioritising his ambitions in gambling it is bad but on the other hand we also as friends have the responsibility to realise at least remind him because he crossed the boundaries that have been set.

Beginner's luck is always in good condition from this we also if we have friends who are in the scope of gambling for the first time then this must also continue to be reminded so that they do not put themselves in something difficult that is addictive.

Thank you for sharing your gambling experience. It's unfortunate to hear about the initial loss you encountered due to a system error on a now-defunct platform. Indeed, selecting a reputable and trustworthy gambling platform is crucial for a positive experience.

As the leonair’s message rightly points out, starting out in the gambling world can be challenging, especially when one lacks familiarity with the platforms and the intricacies of the process. Mistakes are a natural part of the learning curve, and it's through these experiences that we gain valuable insights to make better decisions in the future.

Learning from past errors and taking a more cautious approach when choosing a new gambling platform is essential. Look for reputable websites with good user reviews and ensure they have appropriate licenses and security measures in place to protect your funds and personal information.

Moreover, managing emotions and maintaining self-control during gambling is fundamental. It's easy to get carried away by the excitement and potential rewards, but responsible gambling entails setting limits on both time and money spent. Always gamble with funds you can afford to lose and avoid chasing losses.

Remember, gambling should be seen as entertainment, not a way to make a living. Responsible gambling ensures that you can enjoy the experience without compromising your financial well-being. I wish you continued success and a positive experience on the platform you've found, and may it bring you enjoyable moments without undue risks.

Most of us were introduced to gambling site by friends. I joined gambling because of the huge amount my friend won in the process of gambling. And my first gambling was nice because there was a first time lucky winner in the game and I won about $120 so I was excited. But after the first win I stopped for the day and went home with the cash which I withdrew in the casino hall.  After my first day of gambling and o won the amount, I went back to the casino hall for the mindset to win again but luck run out from me and I loss all the cash I that brought to the hall. The experience was nice and bad because I won at the first day and loss for the second days.

I didn't see an example of my friends' big win, I was walking with a friend and he went to play in a casino, I just stayed with him and watched him lose money. ) Then I didn’t really like it all, he lost somewhere around 50 dollars and that was it. A little later, I saw a bookmaker's sign and went to play myself, it was more interesting to me than a casino. I also managed to win at first, but then losses followed.

[QueenVera]

 I wasn't really a fan of gambling not until I was introduced to it through the referral link of a friend who said I'll get a reward upon registration, it convinced me to give it a trial because I couldn't consider loosing my own money to something I wasn't sure of winning since I'm not good at predictions. I registered and was given the bonus to wager on a game before claiming then I contacted my friend on what to do and she said I should use it to play any game I was sure of the outcome, it was a bit tough because I didn't know how sports betting works i had to make research to know about the odds and how to predict, and after that I noticed the Premier league team I am supporting wasn't having a good season by then so I decided to use the reward given to bet against them and I won, I felt the guilt of betting against my team but was also happy I won my first gambling prediction but the 3rd attempt wasn't good, I lost because my team drew against Tottenham that made me to gradually lose interest in it not only that, when I won my 1st two trials I was tempted to deposit some money to gamble more but losing made me realise that in gambling chances of losing all your profits are high so I decide to quit entirely.

Beginner's luck is always in good condition from this we also if we have friends who are in the scope of gambling for the first time then this must also continue to be reminded so that they do not put themselves in something difficult that is addictive.

If we can remind them, it would be great if they would take it. But if not, we are forced to let them even though it might be hard because we don't want to lose someone as our friend. But if he's just a casual friend and not a best friend, that's okay because we know a lot of friends, and some of them are not our best friends. We do have a responsibility to remind them as friends, but if they don't care about our warnings or suggestions, we can't force them either. They may be better off acting alone without us.

But the beginner's luck will always be there, whoever the beginner is. And if the beginner is a friend we know, we must remind him not to go too far in playing gambling which can make him addicted.

I can't make up a date exactly but I can remember I started gambling sometime 2015 and each time I remembered the experience of my first losses in gambling I raise an eyebrow. I had several consecutive losses being a novice at it cause I wasn't introduced to it by anyone so there was no guidance for it was basically the lack of money within those period that dragged me into gambling with the hope I was going to be quickly luckily enough to win a good amount immediately to meet up some needs.
But guess what I ended up losing even the little spares I had on me. Over the years I have being able to make some winnings as much as losses but my most concern is the fact that I am very well in control of my gambling habit till date which is something every gambler should ignore or neglect.

Winning and losing all depends on our mindsets. When it comes to gambling, winning has always been the forefront priority; all we have to do is accumulate everything within our financial capabilities and wager excessively. We've all had difficult experiences in the gambling system, especially when we were newbies. There are several times where I would record losses; perhaps losses are always present. We work harder every day to get greater outcomes; however, not all of us are successful; most fall off the wagon and liquidate accounts, while others are consistent in their gambling activities.

Gambling is a game that has an addictive effect. Most people who have joined gambling sites will find it difficult to get out of the gambling circle. It doesn't matter how much you lose at gambling, as long as we still have money, we will continue to gamble

Can you share your first experience playing gambling? and who told you about gambling sites?

I myself know gambling sites from my own friends. I idly and try to deposit. Starting from playing with a little money, after a while I didn't know how much money I had spent playing gambling

My first gamble was on a horse track. Not ideally in the casino but it's the same thing, right? For me, it's that first win that makes it addictive. That chasing the win despite losing many times. But luckily I stopped gambling then so I also disciplined myself not to lose more money. Fast forward, I was only introduced to online casinos by this bitcoin talk. Banners and Avatars when you clicked it, most of the time it will lead you to their website. So I get to participate in those for the sake of satisfying my curiosity.

Mine was actually cool and I won on virtuals on my first attempt to play... let's draw the clock to the times I was enclosed in a brick house....I actually ran in for a gambler though, and It came right through.
Thereafter, I began to try some brilliant combos on my own funds when I really had free space,.. I've not really had a bad one but though, buh I've been in situations where peeps be begging for cash to pay Thier way home after squandering all they had on them...that alone thought me alot. I also paid severally for damages when a customer was found not capable of paying for his debts.

I guess we all have this kind of experience. FUnny that we got the win the first time then lose all those winnings all the way haha.

[OgNasty]

My earlier experiences with gambling were great. It was always fun gambling with friends whether over card games, sporting events, or direct betting against each other with trick shots or competitive gaming. It wasn’t until I got old enough to start gambling in Indian casinos where I started having questionable experiences that led me to distrust physical casinos.

It's okay friends, it will be your valuable experience and of course I'm sure that in that way you will be more careful in choosing a gambling platform that is trusted and has a good reputation, always do research before playing because not all gambling platforms are good especially those that are still relatively new, I usually just make a small deposit for a new casino just to test the game.

But you make a deposit of $ 100 for a site that you haven't investigated how their game system is, fortunately you don't lose more there, but always take it positively and always be a lesson from any mistakes we have ever taken because of choosing the wrong gambling platform. I also like you have the same experience for that I am always happy to share experiences so that other people do not make the mistakes we have ever done. always researching before gambling is important.

Winning and losing all depends on our mindsets. When it comes to gambling, winning has always been the forefront priority; all we have to do is accumulate everything within our financial capabilities and wager excessively. We've all had difficult experiences in the gambling system, especially when we were newbies.  

I do not understand how you talk about the mindset in gambling and although victory is a priority, but there is always no certainty when you gamble, the gambling system is very complicated and there is almost no formula that we can out. I think what you mean is not excessive gambling beyond the ability to be responsible and especially when involvement in gambling is still quite a beginner.

There are several times where I would record losses; perhaps losses are always present. We work harder every day to get greater outcomes; however, not all of us are successful; most fall off the wagon and liquidate accounts, while others are consistent in their gambling activities.

There is always a loss in gambling and no one has ever been able to maintain a consecutive victory for a long time. Gambling is synonymous with bets that are uncertain and difficult for people to be involved in continuous victory. Some people set aside a special budget to bet when they have more sources of income that do not affect daily needs and they make a budget that is adjusted every month to be involved in gambling, it is a better idea than imposing irresponsible gambling.

[rahmad2nd]

To be honest, i forgot how the first gambling experience was for me. because, I know gambling from a young age. I mean, traditional gambling. Traditional gambling also includes many types of games, and there are various types of traditional gambling that I play. So, I don't really remember it.

Nonetheless, I remember my first gamble at an online casino. not in sports betting which I usually enjoy, not in live casino games either. but on the type of slot game. I remember well, at that time I was curious to try playing slot machines for the first time at an online casino. the game I play is Play Diamond Strike "Pragmatic". To be honest, I immediately fell in love with this game. like easy, but in fact it is difficult to get high wins. after several times I tried it, regardless of winning or losing. in the end, for the first time I got Mega Win. I remember very well, how the pleasure comes when we achieve something that is difficult to win. Gradually, there are many types of new games popping up that in the end I no longer play the game.

By the way, slot games are the easiest type of gambling to play without even using technique or skill. it's just, if we don't have self-control and responsibility. usually, a gambler finds it difficult to stop if he is addicted. So, it's very important to have self-control and play moderately. just for fun.
