How will you feel if it happens to you just like this?

[Issa56]

Right, even if a bet seems easy to you there's always a chance of losing it due to the unpredictable nature of the future. Unexpected events can turn even the simplest scenarios into near impossibilities.

When gambling, there is no 100 percent assurance that you are going to win a particular bet, there are some bets where you will have a higher percentage that you are going to win, but we should always keep in mind that anything can still happen, so don’t be overconfident about any bets. I'm sure that’s what’s affecting some gamblers, they have too much confidence in some bets, so they decide to gamble huge amounts of money on bets like that because they have the confidence that they are going to win, but at the end, a slight mistake will happen, and they are going to lose everything.

So if anyone is considering using a large amount of money to bet on odds that seem highly likely to win, like for example 1.0x to 1.1 ; I would honestly advise against it. Instead, I recommend betting with a smaller amount of money but aiming for higher odds to potentially secure a huge win.

Since the odds are kind of small and they have confidence that they are going to win, some people decide to use high amounts of money, but I think the risk is not really worth it. If you are confident about a bet, still make sure you use a reasonable amount of money, don't use an amount that might still affect you if you lose.

I don't want to gamble for fun because I have little capital so it would be foolish to waste it completely. Only billionaires can gamble for fun so the question is put to tadar. On the other hand if I didn't have the money to bet I would never bet but I sometimes sold assets because I was tempted to gamble. After gambling and getting a big win then the past losses can be forgotten as it happened to all of us in this crypto market. Today if I could buy bitcoin, ethereum, bnb, xrp at the right time then I would be rich because few years ago their prices were low.

Then do you gamble just to chase wins? If you had a lot of money, would you gamble it away in the hope that it would grow?
In my opinion, it's not just billionaires who gamble just for fun, nowadays there are also many poor people who gamble just for fun, and even dare to risk their money without thinking twice about whether they will lose.
You could sell the assets you own because you are tempted to gamble, that is the risk if someone is addicted to gambling. Your mindset is correct because when you save in the form of BTC, Ethereum, etc., which are cheap and sell them when the price is high, your desire to have a lot of money is no longer in doubt.

People act like if without enough money the bet no longer exists.  It exists in the game and risk continues just your reward for the bet will be far less but you can still bet and be involved no matter what the level of value placed on the bet.  Depends where your enjoyment lies, if you purely are looking to double your money and not play the game then sure nothing more left to gamble on the game means you are mostly spending time only not really any money but I usually play for the game or to progress the game in some way I wouldnt enjoy it otherwise.

People like those (me) who don't gamble for fun have this question to answer: how will you feel when you don't have money to stake a game that you predicted and better winning games you predicted played the way you predicted it and when you checked the winning was something that could have changed your life for ever if you didn't gambled again after such winning?

This question can be very tough to answer, but believe me, many people won't stop thinking of that if it happened to them, so I want to know your opinion about how you would feel if it happened to you.

If it happens to me, I can't stop thinking of it, but definitely one day I will stop thinking about it and see it as history or not yet, my time for big wins just like how it happened to me when I lost a bet that would have given me long-term smiles.

This is called gambling. You shouldn't regret for missed opportunities when it comes to gambling. Imagine the opposite. The things that you predicted and the exact opposite happens. Wouldn't you feel relived? Wouldn't you be grateful that you didn't place the bet? And you can't regret like this. It's like placing a small bet in dice and then rolling over 99.98 and then you are thinking why didn't I place a larger bet with a higher payout option. Gambling is all about risking. You place the bet, you win or you lose. It's no use of imagining "what if this or that".

True. You are playing with chances. Plus, you accepted the risk the moment you placed your bet and started the game. No matter the outcome of that roll is already decided; you have no option whatsoever to choose what the outcome is but you always have the chance to play with the odds and align it to the outcome you desire. Accepting that you lose is way easier than having that regrets nor that thinking that you should have pressed X instead of Y.

There are gamblers that want to stop immediately but they don't realize that no one can do that. Someone who wants to stop as soon as possible won't happen. There's a process that they need to go through and it's one of the roughest ways that they have to deal with.

Yes, there is a process to stop and it is not easy to do it because they have to be able to go through every process. But it's worth it, especially if they want to stop. And although it takes time, it is something they can do to cure their gambling addiction. Maybe that's why they have to have someone accompany them during the healing process for their gambling addiction so that they can persist in the healing process. And when they feel tired, some people will remind them to be enthusiastic again to undergo the process of healing their gambling addiction.

[jostorres]

Gambling has taught me a lot. One of the conclusions that I have made for myself for my experience in gambling says that you can not be confident in their predictions a hundred percent as luck in this area plays a very important role. I believe that such conclusions have made many gamblers. Even if I was sure that my bet will play I would not put on the line all that I have unambiguously. I decided for myself that I can risk only those money after the loss of which I will not blame myself.

Right, even if a bet seems easy to you there's always a chance of losing it due to the unpredictable nature of the future. Unexpected events can turn even the simplest scenarios into near impossibilities. So if anyone is considering using a large amount of money to bet on odds that seem highly likely to win, like for example 1.0x to 1.1 ; I would honestly advise against it. Instead, I recommend betting with a smaller amount of money but aiming for higher odds to potentially secure a huge win.

That happens with everyone, betting a high amount to get a small amount targeting very small multipliers thinking that the odds for winning are high with such bets but then surprisingly losing the bet and then regretting the decision. It happened to me too, but the amount wasn't too high and I highly regretted my decision also because my spouse told me to bet on the other team which had 8.0 odds while the one I bet on was on 1.05 or something.

I also remember a thread here in the forum that discussed that a gambler lost $1.4m on a bet with 1.01x odds which was probably a desperate attempt to get a few thousand dollars with such a large amount but the bettor lost the bet and must have felt like hell but to no avail since what's gone is gone.

Yes, it's worth it in the end when the gambler who wants to stop does it. The time is there and it's not an easy path but that's how it goes as we're talking about the process. Without it, you'll never get to see the worth of it if it's just an easy thing. If there's a need for someone to become accompanied by his peer, and thinks that it's better to have it then give it to them.

And when they feel tired, some people will remind them to be enthusiastic again to undergo the process of healing their gambling addiction.

Until you can stand on your own by that time because they are there to cheer but you can't have them forever. And that's why being alone is one big thing and showing it to yourself that you can do it on your own is also satisfying.

It is said that anyone who predicts a game but complains he did not have money to stake on it does not trust his prediction. I believe that. If he has trust in his prediction he would do anything to get money to play the games. If you did not play there is no need to regret not winning. The feeling of I would have won and become rich should not come up.

If it happens to me, I can't stop thinking of it, but definitely one day I will stop thinking about it and see it as history or not yet, my time for big wins just like how it happened to me when I lost a bet that would have given me long-term smiles.

If you will not stop thinking about it, you will only be hurting your self with that behavior.  Your loss in that bet is too much. Only one game cut your ticket. Your prediction was very good. If you had known you would havee stopped around 1.3 million. It is also a round number.

The gambler should ready to face the risk to get the big win in the gambling.If the gambler are not ready for the big amount,he can gamble with the minimum or small amount at the beginning.After the learning of the gambling games,he can increase the betting amount in the gambling.The multiple bet was unique strategies used the experienced gamblers. Accepting your spouse words depend on yourself,but using self strategy may works.And you need to worry on the decision because it’s your money and your decision.Their may be many stories in the forum,but you need create your own stories forgot others words.

Without it, you'll never get to see the worth of it if it's just an easy thing. If there's a need for someone to become accompanied by his peer, and thinks that it's better to have it then give it to them.

It's better to go through it with someone who can encourage them so they can go through the process well every time. It won't feel too hard because they can spend time together going through each process, making their relationship even closer. And when one day he feels heavy, he can pour out his feelings to the people who accompany him so that his burden will not be heavy and he can still survive the healing process.

Until you can stand on your own by that time because they are there to cheer but you can't have them forever. And that's why being alone is one big thing and showing it to yourself that you can do it on your own is also satisfying.

Yes, and it also shows us that humans are social creatures who cannot live alone without other people. When they realize this and are willing to ask for help from others, they will not feel tired. At least someone else will come to them and grab their shoulders to walk together to achieve their goals. And when they arrive at their destination, they will smile together and enjoy the next days well.

There's a famous gambling quote, "Nobody has ever bet enough on the winning horse." Well, what can I say, we gamblers know it's true. Once I won with 9,900x multiplier on dice, and I had $50 on balance back then. I bet with a fraction of a cent and won only $20, but of course I was thinking WHY, why didn't I bet with $10 or $20 and won a life-changing amount?

[Negotiation]

When I gamble, I don't take it seriously because my gambling is really just a hobby. If I win, it's fine; there's no problem if I always lose. Because I do it just for fun and sometimes just to relieve stress.

I hope that you have a strong determination to maintain your view of gambling that gambling is just a hobby and just fun. Because what happens to gambling addicts is that they also have a view like that, but over time they get big profits from the gambling they do, which in the end they change their view that gambling is profit and a means of multiplying money. So that after getting this victory, they continue to play and continue to chase victory without control.

I agree with your opinion, a gambler must have the right view and mindset that gambling will not only make us happy and win, one day we will feel sad when we lose. If someone gambles just for fun or as a hobby and can control himself then he is a responsible gambler and he does not feel burdened if one day he loses.

Actually, addiction to gambling depends on the person playing it. If you can play it carefully, I'm sure it will be easy to control yourself.
If you play it just as a hobby and to relieve stress, that's a big mistake because if you lose a lot of money in gambling it will only make you more stressed.
It's true that many people gamble just as a hobby, but if your hobby only costs you money, does it deserve to be called a hobby? because in gambling it is not certain that you will win or lose, but what I know is that most people just keep experiencing losses.

I agree with you that it is true that no one can guarantee correct gambling is a fun thing but not all fun. Although gambling is played in the name of gambling it is essentially something different from playing just as there are different behaviors here there are also different levels. Gambling is a game with which the issues of addiction and addiction come up very strongly. A gambling addict spends most of the day thinking about gambling and is ready to increase the amount of bets along with the addiction the addict also suffers financially.

This scenario happened to me during my days at University, as a student, I was gambling precisely on sports betting to earn some side income because the money that was given to me to feed and take care of school stuff was not enough to cater to my needs,  then I had this 8 game I wrote down on the paper to bet on weekend matches but because I have had series of loses and only had money to feed left in my pocket so I had to abandon the game, could you imagine that to my greatest surprise all the games were 100% in the money.

Just make it simple, if you think gambling isn't fun, you can choose to not gamble at all. No one is forcing you to gamble and you must not blame the casino if you lose all of your money. There are many thing can entertain you e.g. playing video game, clubbing, having sex etc, not only gambling.

If someone can't accept the house always win and it's possible to make money through gambling, they're dumb.

The simple answer to this question would be either start predicting for all the matches even where predictions turned out to be a loss and then calculate the total or don't predict any bets when you don't anything to bet at all.
I would go with the latter. Why to waste time when you know that you won't get anything in return for your predictions.
If you were gambling for fun then the scenario would have been different.

Besides, there is no assurance in gambling for us to win. If we consider gambling as for fun, then there are no regrets happen if ever we lose but if we consider this as a source of income, that would be a different feeling and totally we can blame ourselves and ask why I put my money in a losing bet. No matter how good we are at gambling, losing is still there. It was really disappointing that our expectations had failed but have to accept that this is gambling, there are losses/wins.

That's right, gambling is just a matter of luck in the person who gambles. If we gamble because of a hobby or to entertain ourselves, of course we won't regret it if one day we lose, and it's different if someone gambles to earn income. There is still doubt because we cannot predict when we will be lucky or win, maybe we will lose. Yes, I agree with you, no matter how good we are at gambling, one day we will definitely lose and if we can't manage the money we bet, of course we will regret it and in the end, like it or not, we will lose and we have to be ready to accept this.

And if they haven't been lucky, they don't need to force themselves to continue gambling, especially if they have lost several times. They should immediately stop gambling and leave the casino before all their money is gone. Never make gambling a hobby because it is a very expensive hobby, and it is better to choose other activities as a hobby, especially those that do not use a lot of money. And we will never know when we can win because we can only gamble as usual and just try to enjoy our gambling time.

[tjtonmoy]

Fix your budget, do not over-gamble, control your emotions, never chase your losses, and always keep some extra money separate from your gambling account(this should be separated from your total gambling budget) which will help you continue to gamble in the future. Opportunity does not come very often. So when it does come, we need to be prepared for it. What you are saying in OP is emotional talk. If a prediction is 99% correct and plays out the way you have predicted but you were unable to use that opportunity because you lack money at that time, just forget about it and look for the next opportunity.

This is why I said to keep some separate money. If you had this money back then, you could have gambled with it and made a fortune. But that was not possible because you didn't take advance preparation for that. This was a mistake and if you are smart, take lessons from your mistakes and learn. The more you stick to your past, the worse your future is going to be. So forget the past and have no regrets. Control your emotions and focus on the future.

The answer to your question is very simple. You need to live in reality, and not in fantasies about how it could be if this or that happened. The situation you described, when a gambler misses out on probable profits, is very similar to lost profit syndrome. Many people regret that they didn't buy bitcoin in the early stages and believe that now they could be rich, but in the end they have exactly as much as they have. Instead of grasping new opportunities now, they continue to live on the memories and what they could have had if they had done things differently. Ok, your prediction that you didn't bet on could have brought you a lot of money, but you missed this opportunity. Forget it. Think about new bets that can bring you real profits, not imaginary ones, and act in this direction.

If such a story happened to me, I would simply tell it to my friends as a story, not taking it seriously at all as a lost profit. Do exactly the same.
