How was your first experience with gambling?

[ethereumhunter]

Losses, especially the first ones, can make you feel a lot of different things. As you said, curiosity is a strong emotion that almost puts people in a feedback loop. They bet, lose, think about it, and then bet again, often with higher stakes. The pattern repeats in a creepy way, doesn't it?

If we step back for a moment and look at how most gambling games work, we can see that the odds are usually against the person. It's half the battle to figure this out. Once people understand that gaming is more about luck than skill (and that the odds favor the house), they can make better decisions. It's not about going back into the fight in order to "beat" the system. Instead, it's about knowing the system. Dive deep, analyze, and think, and if you want to get involved, do so with your eyes open

Experiencing loss for the first time makes someone curious about what caused it. And they will repeat gambling another day. And when they lose again, they will keep doing it again. But when they win, they think they can win again another day and gamble again. It's like a circle that will keep turning and won't stop unless the person realizes that gambling is like that. Some people win and some people lose. The number of people who lose will be more than those who win.

If they could think clearly before starting to gamble, they should be able to see how big their chances of winning at gambling are. And if they already understand that it is difficult to beat the casino, they should not need to chase wins and can treat gambling as entertainment. It will make them try to enjoy gambling as entertainment rather than using gambling to gain winnings and money.

Yes, of course a beginner's curiosity will give rise to the habit of gambling if they cannot control it, because they will continue to gamble in pursuit of victory even though otherwise they will definitely experience losses. And if they are not equipped with responsible and careful gambling behavior, without them realizing it, it will be difficult for them to win, instead they will lose and as a result their own losses will soon befall them.

A beginner will feel curious about his first defeat. If he could control himself, he would not gamble just because he wanted to fulfill his curiosity because he knew that gambling was about winning and losing. If they lose, they have no luck and vice versa. A responsible person will always be careful when gambling, even if it is their first time gambling. And even if they lose gambling, they won't think too much about it because that's gambling. And if they return to gambling, it is not because of curiosity but because they want entertainment from gambling.

Yes, that's right, a beginner who wants to gamble must have responsible behavior and always be careful when gambling, sometimes a beginner has a strong attitude and is optimistic that they will get lucky and will always try the gambling they are considering. very entertaining and will make a lot of money, even though what they want may not come true, if beginners are not accompanied by professional gamblers, I think they will play excessively and not focus on their finances or time in gambling. However, some beginners I see when they lose will play again to catch up on their losses and there are also those who gamble again just to entertain themselves.

A beginner can have a strong attitude and be optimistic about getting lucky, but he shouldn't be too confident about it because we all don't know when luck will come. And if we don't get that luck, we should be more careful and maybe deciding to stop gambling is the best choice we have ever made, especially if we have experienced quite a loss. But I think not all beginners are accompanied by professional gamblers because they think this is just gambling and don't need it yet, so they will try to find out every game they want to play for themselves. But beginners must be careful if they want to gamble for a long time, especially to recover from previous losses. They must really be able to control themselves so as not to lose a lot of money at the gambling table, even though there are many temptations to keep going back to gambling at the casino.

Also, people will usually tell the good experiences of gambling and may hide the bad experiences. This may mislead the newbies who may think that gambling activity may only gives a lot of money and the chances of loss are very minimal.

This may not be true in reality as when you gamble in an ideal world, you have 50-50 chances of winning and losing. However, if the casino is not fair or there is some miscommunication about the house edge by the casino, the losing chances increase more than the winning.

That's right, a large number of newcomers come to gambling precisely because each of them has some kind of friend who brags about how easily he gets money with his mind for guessed outcomes in matches. And then every kid will think, "maybe I understand football better than him? After all, I can earn very well." I have heard such stories many times, but these guys guessed the first couple of bets, after which they began an endless black streak, which led to huge losses.

It's all about human psychology: everyone likes to tell good things and brag, and no one talks about their failures.

My first gambling experience was at  the grosvenor casino London many years ago, i had a great time, however, it didn't make me hooked on gambling. I was more fascinated about the atmosphere than the games to be honest at that time.

It was first later, when I discovered fun slots online, that I started to play for fun.
I think its a great way to spend some free time, if you don't have anything more important to do ( I which I hade more free time nowadays )

Yeah, some casinos keep that flashy, fun, atmosphere, which I think is very attractive.

Expensive looking places with everyone dressed up, having fun, etc. That's great.

But there are also casinos where you have people basically connected to slot machines just hitting the button non-stop, looking depressingly bad. That view is really bad.

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 experience with gambling was very emotional. Oneday I found out that some guys in my area gambled in online casinos and went to them. Even if they deny me at first, I tell them wholeheartedly that I will never blame you for teaching me. They told me that gambling is a very bad passion. Those who entered here must have lost and suffered a lot. The advice they gave me was definitely very good. But at my insistence they taught me how to bet.

Since then I participate in gambling with a lot of passion. First 2/1 day won the bet but most of the time I lost the bet. But I never turned this gambling into an addiction. I have always gambled with myself in control. Currently I lose very few bets due to my experience with gambling platforms. But I mostly bet on sports.

Kinda similar to my experience the first time I entered in casino before. Actually, I was assumed to be underage and had to show my ID at that time. I was with my friends and cousin and the first thing they taught me was slot machine. I never understood at first, but then they explained me very well. They also advised me that gambling is not all about having fun and that I should not be addicted to it.

First time involve in gambling is little bit nervous cause when I put my bet then my nerves starting shaking cause of nervous and Badly Saying that my first bet is a loss so I decided to put my bet again and again then at last in the end of the day I have an enough money to shopping cause I'll win a good amount of money then Thats the reason why I started gambling cause I'll win . But when the time flies So fast then a lot of money I'll lossed.

Yes, that's why streamers and influencers who promote gambling and collaborate with casinos will usually only show their winnings and behind that they don't show big losses and other things, especially the promotions that many people do through social media just to show off winnings from gambling that we don't know. never know that his losses are actually greater than his wins.

That's what might make people want to gamble just like I did when I first started gambling, but luckily I didn't go too deep or too far into gambling so I can still control it now, because if I keep thinking that I can win big money and beating the dealer is very wrong, because victory comes if we can control ourselves when gambling. The point is, don't believe what people show you about the results they show off or brag about.

Absolutely.

YouTubers are basically ads these days disguised as content. They will get commissions or deals, or straight up cash for talking about a service or a product, and they will make it look like they're teaching you something, or that it's an entertainment content, etc.

It's a massive business, and many people are literally doing this full time as a job, and getting good money. At the end of the day their money comes from Google, who is an advertisement company.

Myself and me eldest brother would gamble with our breakfast ( White Rice and Oyster Sauce/ Stew Prepared by Mum ). We didn't take too seriously but whoever won when we gamed ( Mortal Kombat ) will take the other persons meal for breakfast. Reminiscing all that got me giggling.

I did gambled so I could get a pair of boots to partake in a street football competition. I didn't get up to the amount needed but I can recall correctly winning from me first bet placed.
I won't say I'm addicted also to gambling. I know when halt and go harder. But then in all you do when gambling, make sure to never do so under pressure. You will end up not getting whatever you have in mind.
So much losses in gambling, you get to make results with too many failures and consistency. Most Importantly, learn from your failures and don't dwell on em.

Feeling nervous when placing a bet is a normal thing for some novice gamblers. That's because they are not used to it and may still be confused about what they should set before placing a bet. That also happened to me when I first started gambling, and it's okay because, with time, that feeling of nervousness will disappear, and we will get used to gambling. Some people may hope to win from gambling, so they place big money bets, but they don't know that it will only speed up the end of their money. Usually, these beginners might get lucky to win the gambling game. There are also novice gamblers who experience losses at the beginning of their gambling, which is normal.

Yes, a good experience, the first win is certainly thrilling. I myself was worried whether the money would go into my wallet or not, when I first played I used fiat money, and the withdrawal process took 1 hour. The next day I met with my friends to celebrate the bigwin.

But unfortunately the winnings didn't last long, the next day I deposited again with the remaining money I had, and it was all gone. Very sad...

Yeah, that's the typical experience for a gambler.

They at some point win something, they feel great, they want to win more, they bet more, and more, and more, until they reach at their pocket and no more money is to be found...

I heard complaints from my friends who gamble using fiat. And to withdraw the winnings to their bank account, they need more time. So I don't want to try it. And I found a crypto casino that made it easy to deposit and withdraw money. That's what makes me prefer playing online gambling using crypto because it doesn't take me to wait for a long time to receive and send the money. Moreover, the money is in crypto, which I can easily get.

Well, those are all experiences that we will always remember. But we have experiences that no one else will have because we also have our own experiences. And as long as we can learn from that experience, we can avoid the same mistakes or won't make them again.

It seems to me that cryptocurrency and gambling have always been together, I started about 10 years ago and even then there were various dice and games, I always liked to play for small amounts, I think in those days there were a lot more different altcoins that were very cheap and I wanted to play.

Yes, that's an accurate description. That's what happens to novice gamblers, then they don't realize that their winnings have turned into losses. They continue to make deposits and want to get their winnings back. When he got a big win, he was greedy and kept playing until finally his winnings ran out again

Yes, crypto gambling in the past was very simple, mostly just dice games. The first time I got to know crypto gambling was freebitcoin, I played from the foucet they had, it was a ridiculous experience, because I expected to win a lot of bitcoin from the fouchet, and it never happened.
