Greed can cause a lost bet, (true or false)

[ethereumhunter]

People become addicted to gambling because they gamble, and gambling causes them to gamble even more, which is extremely harsh

But here's the thing: individuals must be aware of what they're doing. Similarly, if you gamble, you should be aware that you are wagering, correct? If you're gambling and you tell your family, "Hey, I'm gambling, and it's a problem," they can help, but not too much, just the appropriate amount

And, similarly, having money is not always a problem, but it can be. If you have limitless funds, it's fine to gamble to gain money, but if you don't, it's risky to do so. Knowing when to halt is difficult due to the desire to continue moving. Consequently, wagering is something that requires caution. There are no straightforward solutions to this extremely complex issue

When you are not aware of playing gambling, it will only make you more eager to try to get victory after victory. But it won't be easy because many have tried but they have lost a lot of money. And when you tell other people that you gamble, you might get opposition from them so they will forbid you to gamble.

Meanwhile, if you are gambling, you must know when it is time to stop because if not, you will only spend your time gambling while not doing other activities. And another problem is don't fall for greed because it can cause you to lose money. Greed only gives more losses that you will not even notice.

If I hear from someone that he is gambling, I do not harbor any illusions, and I understand that gambling does not mean winning. In addition, a person is not always ready to tell the truth that he loses more than he wins, but at the same time he can simply say that he does not keep an accurate count, but just plays. This will be enough to understand that he does not earn anything from this, and most likely he loses more, but he likes the process itself, so he continues.

Greed also makes us lose everything. Small wins are the trigger, especially when you get the win at the start.

When we get the win at the beginning, that's where the desire to get the big win peaks where we keep increasing the number of bets many times over, running out of deposit balance again to continue chasing big wins. Indeed there are some people after doing this it is not in vain that they get big wins. However, from most of the gamblers that I met when doing this, it was precisely what happened that the wins never came and the money ran out without remainder.

It's good when we can't control our emotions when playing gambling, it would be better if you ask your friends to accompany you to play so someone will make you aware when you lose control.

Greed, little wins, gambling, losing control, and pals are in your topic. These seemingly unrelated aspects create a peculiar, intriguing life viewpoint.

Losing control due to little wins is intriguing and may or may not relate to human nature's inner battles. Its a complicated dance of feelings that sometimes make sense and sometimes dont.

Your issues about having buddies to retain control is intriguing and unappealing. It may be comforting. However, it may strain friendships. Gambling, in all its complexity, remains a source of curiosity, bewilderment, and possibly wisdom, though the latter may not be applicable here.

He should be able to reduce the number of large losses by always estimating how much money he will use so that he will not experience many losses. Gambling doesn't always win and we can even experience a lot of losses, but that's what many gamblers don't seem to realize, so they keep playing because they think that by continuing to play, one day they will be able to get a big win. But that big win didn't make him stop immediately but instead wanted another big win. That's where greed has taken over so he continues to gamble in pursuit of another big win and refuses to get the next small win.

To my notice a lot of people still believe that this betking is a scam site after I have taken my time to explain, WHY? One of bitcointalk rules states that read the content of threads and some comments before posting, for basic informations read this comments carefully so you can get what am talking about.
this is the scam betking casino site and this is the legit betking site I am talking about

Immediately you mentioned betking, what will come to peoples mind is the one that have been accused of scam on the forum here, and they will have to warn everyone to stay away from the site because forum members are likely to be scammed if they use the site, but the betking which you mentioned is a gambling site which is very popular in my country, and i haven't heard any accusation against them before, and i don't even think they will come to forum here to market, because they only accept fiat currency, they don't accept bitcoin so and i haven't seen any gambling site that those not accept cryptocurrency and they market on forum here.

I think it's curious gamblers who act like this. The expected behavior would be that the next thought right after winning big would consist on how to spend or invest the prize, outside the gambling activity, of course. After all, people must have dreams and goals they want to achieve with big sums of money, instead of spending everything gambling without having any plans for the money in the end, and once they earn it through gambling, it's finally their chance to execute it for real.

However, what we see are gamblers using big prizes to continue gambling even more until they have nothing else on their pockets... Is that a poor mindset or a lack of mindset?

[Aikidoka]

It's so sad that you experienced a huge loss due to greed, as many gamblers nowadays are driven by greed to make a lot of money through gambling. Even when they make decent bets and win they often use their winnings to gamble more dreaming of becoming millionaires through gambling which is really sad to hear to be honest. However, becoming a millionaire quickly through gambling is extremely difficult and not even professional gamblers can achieve it that fast.

It's really wrong if people believe they can consistently make a lot of money through gambling, as to be successful in gambling relies heavily on luck.

Well, it's normal if gamblers who have won still want other wins, but it depends on how we can control that greed so it doesn't dominate us. Especially if we already know the consequences of letting greed rule us. We want to prevent it from happening to us and not have such an experience.

And if we can win, we should be able to use the money well and maybe preparing for our future and that of our family is the next goal in using that money. Only then can we think about what we do with the other money so that later we can get a good idea of what the money is being used for. And investing or starting a business is a great way to try because it can pay off in the future. So, preventing greed allows us to use the winning money well and not just use it again for gambling.

Anyone that has gambled before knows that it is difficult to stop when you are winning as you do not want to let go of those positive feelings you have at the moment, but ironically the more you gamble the greater the chances this will happen as eventually your results should go back to the mean and you should begin to lose.

And once that happens, what was a very nice session can suddenly turn into an awful one since instead of feeling like a winner you may stop gambling once you lose most or all the profits you had at the moment, leaving a very bad taste in your mouth once that happens.

Losses is the only obstacle that would make a gambler sad and would be eager to wager on games inother to reap profits. The system doesn't work with our motives, rather we employ strategies that would yield our profits. Greed is one of the barrier that have hinder numerous gamblers from making gigantic earnings from the system. Gambling is risky, everyone knows that, but they failed to follow the basic principles that would lead one into becoming successful in the space. For me, there's disciplinary measures to follow inother to reduce our greed, not just gamblers, It also happens to traders which have the most negative effects on.

Employing strategies can actually make things worst, to be honest. One might have lost a small portion of their bankroll initially, but after employing a strategy, they will lose a bigger chunk of it or maybe the whole bankroll because we know strategies don't work in gambling and they only make you lose more money in the long run. A strategy might get you back a few of your losses a couple of times but using it more often will only make your balance go negative.

So both greed and strategies can be your enemy while gambling, that's why it's much better if you just gamble normally and lose your base bet which you might win back eventually instead of applying a strategy and increasing the amount every time so that a loss streak can make you bankrupt.

greed is a disease that hides in the human body and some people find it difficult to control it, in betting when you are unable to control your greedy desires then the decisions you make can be very wrong and tend to be bad, in the business aspect, greed also tends to make someone lose in the long term, greed never has a good impact on the perpetrator.  on the first page of the OP, it is an example of greed that leads to losses ^{(hopefully it will be a lesson for everyone)}, setting minimum and maximum capital limits when gambling is also very important, don't let cases like OP happen again.

Yeah, and everyone has greed in them, but there are also some of them that are kind of invisible, I mean they can contain their greed. But especially for gamblers I'm sure greed will always dominate their faithful day and especially when they're gambling there. It's obvious that most gamblers lose a lot there when they can't control their emotions and are too ambitious to win, even though this is gambling. What I'm saying is that it's all about luck, there's no way to make your chances of getting lucky bigger than just luck. Some of us (gamblers) should realize this, but well it's quite difficult to do, it's unlikely that you will be able to set limits on gambling if emotions get the better of you. So now all we can do is do various ways to be able to reduce the level of defeat, and try to
increase the time of rest.

The facts is stated out clearly, losses are inescapable and one way or the other, gambler will always record losses no matter how hard they tried to prevent it permanently, it's only temporary that they can reduce their loss rate. I've witnessed critical scenario in gambling where greed is the major cause of a gambler loss. They tend to developed this mindset of hope, and they keep playing casino without considering their level or size of account, before they knew it, they blow up everything. Greed poison the heart and its repercussions is weigh negative than expected. Gambling profits are not 100% complete.

Greed is the single most reason why people lose in the long run.  Casinos and betting houses depend on people to turn towards greed.  It clouds sound judgement.  No matter how much you go in with a cool head it's hard not to get greedy.  On the downside and upside it works both ways.  The old adage of "you have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them" comes from greed.

The gambling houses know that gamblers will fall for greed and for that purpose they will give you bonuses and promotions often with high wagering requirements.

A gambler who is not greedy has to be clever enough to know which bonus to go for and which promotion to avoid. Some gamblers do not think this way and spend a lot of money in order to get the deposit bonus. They do not think if this bonus comes with high wagering or low wagering requirement.

A gambler who saves himself from greediness can survive in this market.

In general, at bear market that might save us, but i don't think it applies in gambling. As you don't get rich with gambling by settling less. You need certain amount of greed and to set a high bar (aka being greedy) on the amount you are satisfied to retire. And to do that if you don't dream big. Same applies on investing in the volatile markets.

Obviously there's a downside that you could lose everything with that tactic.

Casinos need people to make bets in order for them to obtain profits, so they will obviously try to take advantage of some common characteristics their clients may share, and taking advantage of their greed is simply to be expected, after all some of the bonuses that casinos offer can be very attractive as a person that maybe was thinking about not gambling for a time will find very difficult to resist such offer and they will end up gambling when in fact they did not had the desire to do it.

We agree, that greed is a disease that lurks within all human beings. some are able to control it well, and try to divert it to other things. some of us, it's hard to control it. and this, is something that is in man. in the case of gambling, greed is something that is hard for us to define. I will take an example, when we are in a phase where luck is on our side. when conducting a gambling session, let's just say we are playing slots. just did one or two spins, then we were lucky to get the jackpot from the free spins.

Well, the question is, are we going to end the game. it becomes difficult, because we have just enjoyed a gambling session. In gambling, there are various types of games that we can play. from every type of game, we have the opportunity to benefit from the gambling session. if greed is involved when we gamble, when is the right time for us to stop the betting session.
Let's just say, the reference is the example I said. for me, greed in gambling is ambiguous. difficult to define. because, in every moment it will always be different. thus, this is different from what you say which refers to the business we run. we could describe the origins of greed in terms of doing business, but in gambling, it is a matter of winning or losing, resulting in multiple wins or ending in defeat. end or continue. anyway, what i say is based on my personal point of view.

To be fair, it's not only gambling houses that capitalize on greed, it's just that it's much more obvious that casinos use greed as a factor to influence people to pay them more. Some simple games with pay-to-win aspects can be considered as one, albeit with a bit of a mix of what they want (greed of winning, desire, etc.). Well in the end greed isn't exactly bad, but too much of it, just like anything else can kill you. As I've shared before, only losers share their stories (or have their stories told), not so much for winners, so that negative connotation we have isn't exactly unexpected.

That's why set a specific amount of money you'd always use. And use that as your limit. Regardless of the quantity of games you play, as long as the quantity of your money involved goes to zero, then you stop, simple as that. The rest is really just a matter of self-control.

This has been something that has caused a lot of trouble for a lot of people because they didn't realize what they are going for and what could be the consequences of greed. I understand that when you lose a lot of money gambling means that you are going to feel bad and you will want to go back to reset, not even make money, just manage to get your money back would be more than enough, hell sometimes not even all of it but some of it, even half.

But, the reality is that if you try to gamble your way out of debt, then you are going to be in a lot more trouble. That type of greed is a lot worse, because if you win a lot and then lose that's at least understandable, but if you gamble and lose and then gamble again, that's trouble.

[passwordnow]

Yup @OP, opportunity like that might won't come again anymore to you because you just lost it and didn't took advantage when it was there.

That's true, if your sole purpose to gamble is to pay all of your debts. You are unlikely going to succeed. Most gamblers are aware that when you do that, you're definitely doing the wrong thing. And instead of doing gambling, you should do some other things when your aiming to pay your debts.
