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

A wise approach to gambling is to manage expectations and accept that luck is a key factor in the outcome of the game.

This is not always true. In poker, especially in the long run, skill plays much bigger part than luck. Some people say that the same is for sports betting, but I'm not sure about that. Although it's not 100% about luck in sports betting, that's for sure.

Understanding that gambling is not a surefire way to make money is an important step in avoiding overwhelming disappointment.

it is therefore important to treat gambling as a fun recreational activity, not as a primary source of income, by disciplining a realistic attitude towards gambling and avoiding dependence on outcomes, so as to reduce the pressure and stress associated with gaming. Awareness of the rules and risks involved is also important for making wise decisions when it comes to gambling.

I totally agree with you here. Even good poker players try to not see their winnings as a primary source of income. Although it's sometimes hard when it's millions.

In the long run, skill plays a significant role in the game of poker. Understanding game strategy, reading opponents, and managing risk wisely can provide important competitive advantages. While the element of luck still exists, skilled players can often optimize their chances of winning consistently.

By strengthening your understanding of strategy and game patterns, you can improve your ability to face complex challenges in the game of poker.

Although big wins in poker can be frustrating to ignore, having a realistic approach to financial management is essential. Especially in gambling, income fluctuations can be volatile and difficult to predict, even for skilled players. Relying on poker as your main source of income without considering the risks involved can be a tough challenge for you and by avoiding dependence on income from poker, you can maintain your financial stability and minimize the risk of losses you will experience.

the behavior of borrowing money to gamble often shows signs of serious gambling addiction. For people who are caught in a gambling addiction, the sense of ambition to continue gambling can be so strong that they often feel the need to borrow money to finance their habit and recover losses and this will further affect their financial condition if they continue to engage in these gambling activities.

and you are right, it is best to gamble with the money we can afford so that it doesn't cause too much loss, because if we gamble more and more with borrowed money, this will have an increasingly bad impact on ourselves.

Many have proven that they are in debt here and there just because they want to gamble again, and they do not hesitate to borrow large amounts accompanied by a promise that, if they win at gambling, they will immediately return the money and will be given a percentage. or bonus money for giving him a loan, and this is absolutely not true.

Agree, it would be better to gamble using our own money and to the best of our ability in placing bets, this can prevent and reduce large losses, because if you are addicted to gambling then your financial condition will get worse and problems will come repeatedly. because mistakes in borrowing money to gamble will make our lives worse.

This behavior must be avoided by gamblers. Apart from having a bad impact, it is also detrimental to themselves and their families. Borrowing large amounts of money to gamble often leads to uncontrolled debt growth and an increasingly difficult financial situation. Promises to return money with uncertain winnings only increase the financial risk for all parties involved, we must understand the risks associated with borrowing money to gamble and avoid a continuous cycle of debt.
Controlling financial including avoiding loans for gambling, and setting clear limits on spending, can help prevent debt situations from occurring.

Of course, this behavior can be detrimental to oneself and of course the family will also feel the impact of this risk. This means that borrowing money to gamble will only cause problems in the family and worsen daily life, because the image that is always in our minds is that we are obliged to return the money. If we win, of course it's easy to return it, but if we lose, our lives will be even more ruined. Too many debts here and there and can't pay the money back.
Yes, that's right, controlling your finances also includes preventing you from borrowing money from other people and if you can do that then you are someone who can control gambling because you know the limits of money you have to risk in gambling and this can minimize becoming an addict.

Good for you if you still have that control, not many or I can say that most of those gamblers are unaware with ongoing addictions inside, like what you mentioned if you are already in the point borrowing just to continue playing the chance that your engagement is a sign of having the addiction, it's better to play with spare money and spare time and not to keep pushing and forget about your obligation especially to go far and barrow or loan something that you are unsure that you can still repay.

Borrowing or taking out a loan for the sole purpose of gambling is absolutely the stupidest decision any gambler could make, no matter how sure the game seems to be. I have personally learnt my lesson the hard way that there is nothing like too sure games in gambling.

Here in my area, there is this type of local lotto we call Baba ijebu, I personally have played this lotto game a couple of times, but have never won, I have also heard stories of some gambler who went as far as borrowing huge amounts of money to stake on what is called too sure games in this lotto, the game is called "too sure" because the analyzers are 100 percent certain that the selected numbers would play, so some people borrow huge amount of money to stake on those numbers,  but at the end of the day, the analyzers were wrong and the selected numbers did not play, and the borrowed money is all lost, putting such gambler under a big financial stress and burden, which may end up affecting his job or business, but also his family.

So, nobody should ever borrow to gamble, it's a very bad harbit and highly risky.

taking out a loan or borrowing money to gamble is indeed a very risky decision and can have detrimental long term impacts on personal finances and social relationships. Playing with borrowed money can result in great financial stress, which in turn can affect overall financial stability and will cause stress.

It is important to avoid getting caught in risky borrowing pattern and prioritize financial stability. By understanding that gambling does not guarantee certain results and can result in losses, we should be able to avoid gambling with borrowed money.
We must be able to develop responsible financial habits and maintaining a balanced between entertainment and financial responsibility can help prevent getting trapped in self defeating gambling pattern.

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?

I will not feel anything at all for me it only counts when I bet on it, there's no use crying over spilled milk it's not for you if you keep feeling disappointed it will just ruin your motivation, I have seen people who are betting their favorite number in a lottery for years almost daily but one time they did not bet on it, it just comes out, now that's really disappointing but that's life in gambling if it's not for you, it's not for you.
You have to understand there are so many weird things that happen and can happen in gambling and these are just one of these.

[zuzie]

Yes. In contrast to people who are addicted to gambling, they do not realize that if they borrow money just to gamble then they will have new problems later in life. If we have good control then this will not be a problem because we can control ourselves well.
That's right, it's better for us to just play with the money we have, even if it's only a little, and that way we won't be too burdened if defeat befalls us, because we only lose the money we have and not the loan. from other people and besides that we don't need to think about how to return it, so we will play more comfortably and regularly without any burden on our minds.

If many people could be like you, perhaps the number of people who are addicted to gambling or people who enjoy gambling would not increase. But because people really want to win, they try to have money to bet. And that could be the start of problems for them because if they borrow from other people, they might encounter difficulties when they want to return the money. You should not feel disappointed if you don't have money to bet because your path to betting is still very long. And if today you don't have money to gamble, you shouldn't force yourself to keep betting otherwise, you will experience a lot of losses.

Of course because gambling addict always prioritizes any way to continue gambling rather than thinking about the risks and impacts for the future.
If they can control themselves and think positively for the long term then they will not become gambling addicts.

The case of borrowing money for gambling is something that is often done and happens everywhere.
Moreover, in land-based casinos there are always people who offer loans to gamblers to be able to continue their gambling sessions because lending money can produce huge profits because of the fairly high interest.

But for those who are chasing victory or looking for profits they usually cannot accept if they only bet small amounts because the profits they get when they win are only small.
But for those of us who gamble just for fun and fill our free time we can use smaller amounts of money.
Moreover gambling with nominal amount that can be accepted when lost is wise attitude.

[piebeyb]

So, nobody should ever borrow to gamble, it's a very bad harbit and highly risky.

Yes, you are right that it is bad behavior because lending or financing money for gambling will not guarantee that your money will double, therefore never try to finance or lend a friend even if he is a professional or expert in gambling analysis in sports betting. or other gambling, always remember that gambling always relies on luck without that it won't be easy to win at gambling so don't ever try to do something like that.

As much as possible, avoid gambling when playing with friends because it will be calmer to gamble alone than to gamble with friends because maybe something like that could happen when he loses and then he comes to borrow money or asks you to finance his bets, avoid that and in fact with Giving debt will only damage friendships because in the end it will not have a good impact either.

If you have a kind of mindset that you treat gambling as part of your entertainment you can also treat the amount that you lose inside as payment for your enjoyment, it will not push you to barrow money and have that problem after suffering from another defeats, though there are different kind of treatment while a person is involved in gambling, and most of the time those who wanted to have that quick and easy access to earn money are the one that have big potential to get into addiction and suffer along the way with financial difficulties.

It's true, gambling addicts only think about their ego so they continue to gamble and don't think positively about their life in the future.

It has been proven that there are many cases where people borrow money just to gamble, and this case includes the temptation to gamble, if the person is tempted then he will immediately borrow just to be able to gamble again, but if the person has a strong mentality and a good mindset then he will not will be tempted by that, in fact he will just stop and go home, because he knows that if he gambles again then he could lose and then he will be confused about how to pay the loan back.

Agree that we should gamble just for fun and fill our free time by gambling and only placing bets in small amounts, if we win then we are lucky but if we lose we will not feel deep regret because we lost a small amount of money.

This is true, there are many gamblers out there that despite knowing very well they will lose more money than what they earn, when this happens to them they are unable to accept it, and instead they keep gambling hoping for things to change, but what they do not realize that when it comes to gambling the more you do it the lower the chances you can beat the house, so in a way it is kind of ironic that their inability to accept their losses is what in effect causes them to suffer even greater losses.

That is the result of gambling, they experience addiction and as a result cannot control their gambling. This has a big impact on ourselves, that is, if we experience defeat at some point which might happen to us, we must be ready and able to accept the defeat, realizing that gambling does not always result in luck alone, it will definitely happen at another time. will lose and lose the money we have. we've bet on it. So awareness and self-control are very necessary when gambling, so that we don't experience bad things and prevent us from becoming addicted to gambling.

~ Relying on poker as your main source of income without considering the risks involved can be a tough challenge for you and by avoiding dependence on income from poker, you can maintain your financial stability and minimize the risk of losses you will experience.

To put it simple, although your skills play decisive role in poker, the role of luck is still too big to rely on your winnings in poker as your main source of income. Luck plays a part in everything we do. But if you are a skillful coder or a high skilled worker, the probability of you making money is much less depends on luck than if you are a pro poker player. So, if you want to make money, it's better to get a real job.

[JahriMeayer]

Mate, i think i can answer this question as i experienced such thing already. Undoubtedly it'll feel bad even so bad when you see your prediction is right and you miss the high opportunity to get rich or recover big amount what you had loss in past. And you think this question is very tough to answer but Its easy!! "You may missed a lot of opportunities already but remember, That Day is Not The End, There Will Be Many Matches In Future and Many Opportunities Will Also Come". So don't be crazy while you don't have money. Don't need to hurry. Don't get addicted but try to have some own discipline which could make you a responsible gambler

[0t3p0t]

Well, I think that would haunt you everytime you think of gambling. We all know that missing all those opportunities is a sad thing that gamblers may experience and that is quiet common to most of us. But for me the best thing to do here is to accept and move on. Luck is luck.

[Hispo]

I mean. That is the kind of stuff which could easily haunt any gambler for ever, and in my opinion, it could be also one of the things which could push some people torwards developing gambling addiction as well. Because those feelings of "what if" could prompt someone to continue to gamble so they won't lose the next chance the have to win big. Though, most of those gamblers who unfortunately let themselves to fall into that toxic midset usually ignore that in order to witn big, they also need to wager big.

Missed "opportunities" are not supposed to be pursued in gambling, it is not different from chasing losses and we all know how that ends up.

I have a personal experience about losts opportunities myself. I participated in a lottery some days ago, nothing big, just some numbers to give away some household machines, I chose the number 15 out of 120 and some of the winner numbers were: 14 and 17. Such a bad luck.
If I allow myself to be driven by the sense of lost opportunities I would continue to playing those lotteries non-stop, though, I know I am not supposed to.

[bettercrypto]

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.

Gambling is better, what about trading? You can think like if you have used $1000 to go 10x to make it $10000, that if you put it on altcoin like doge in 2020 and it actually pumped that you would have become a million in dollars by now. And this keeps repeating, but you will only notice that you lose more. That is life. I do not think about something like that. If my day will come, it would, but we should risk responsibly and not think like we would become rich in just one day.

Everything that is happening in our lives today is the result of our chosen decisions in life. Now, if we are gambling and we suddenly win a large amount and we decide to stop gambling because you have won enough millions of dollars, you decide not to gamble even though this is the reason why you suddenly became rich.

This is, of course, a decision you made, and there are also others who, after winning millions of dollars in gambling, continued to gamble and did not stop. You can also ignore your winnings if you neglect what you won here.

[Accardo]

Good for you if you still have that control, not many or I can say that most of those gamblers are unaware with ongoing addictions inside, like what you mentioned if you are already in the point borrowing just to continue playing the chance that your engagement is a sign of having the addiction, it's better to play with spare money and spare time and not to keep pushing and forget about your obligation especially to go far and barrow or loan something that you are unsure that you can still repay.

Yes. In contrast to people who are addicted to gambling, they do not realize that if they borrow money just to gamble then they will have new problems later in life. If we have good control then this will not be a problem because we can control ourselves well.
That's right, it's better for us to just play with the money we have, even if it's only a little, and that way we won't be too burdened if defeat befalls us, because we only lose the money we have and not the loan. from other people and besides that we don't need to think about how to return it, so we will play more comfortably and regularly without any burden on our minds.

Taking loans to gamble is not a good gambling practice as most player ends up taking silly actions when the paying back period emerges. If a gambler thinks that his prediction for a game is accurate and doesn't have money to stake in the game, no problem. Other opportunities will arrive for the gambler when he has money. Insisting on betting the game with a loan, will only push the player in trouble if the game ends in a loss. How then will he refund the loan? It would have been better if he waited, maybe he'd win the next game with his money. However, addiction affects many gamblers not to realize what trouble they've gotten into trying to satisfy their taste for online gambling. The right method is doing what Fredomago said, applying a limited time for gambling. It feels bad to know that we would have made lots of money assuming we borrowed to play the game we didn't play due to lack of money.

Risk is important, but such risks in gambling aren't worth the stress, as winning is not guaranteed. Op would feel bad countless times if he didn't control himself and at times he would be tempted to pick a loan as a choice. Which won't allow him to play games with a lesser burden or with a free mind, thereby increasing his chances of losing money. Playing games with a loan doesn't let the player predict well, as he'd wonder about what the outcome of losing the money will be, so, doing it in the place isn't advisable. If there is a way for the gambler to forget about the money he lost for not staking the game it's better than recalling it often time, which could lead him to try gambling at all cost. And he won't enjoy it, but in sports gambling the player may be lucky or at least wager the loaned money bit by bit. Unless he wagers the money at once, his risks of losing out would be low. He'll have extra funds to gamble. Maybe he'll be lucky to win money to repay.
