When the fun stops

[ethereumhunter]

If something like that or that mindset happens to them then I honestly can't imagine what negative things will happen to them next. The fact is that no matter how much you get money from gambling it will not last long friends, gradually all the money you will deposit again at the casino when you have run out of everything, I have a colleague at the beginning of gambling he always won until the amount was very large and until he could buy a vehicle and gradually when luck was not on his side anymore then all the items he had he sold back for gambling capital and finally until his own house was sold. Now this is what is scared so if you have managed to get a win don't be happy first because it's all unfinished, luck will not always be on your side so it is very possible that one day everything you originally got will run out again. So use a healthy mindset in gambling, even though you win but still you have to think realistically in looking at gambling, being a wise and responsible gambler is better, because if you put a little hope and greed, you will definitely end up going down over time. The fun is only temporary and the fear is when you think that this is a place to make money, I think avoid at all costs.

It has happened to some gamblers that when they win from gambling, they will use the money to gamble again in the hope that they can win an even bigger amount of money. And there is a possibility that all the winnings will be used for gambling when he no longer has the budget for gambling that he has prepared beforehand. He can even sell the items he buys from gambling to have money that can later be used for gambling. But if he can think of having a business that he will manage and develop, maybe he can focus more on working on his business rather than gambling so that his winnings can be channeled into useful things. Or he could be a wise gambler who does not rely on gambling to make money so he will return to gambling when he wants it.

Well and the only solution is just to bring a more rational mindset there, even though you have managed to win but I say it is not a real victory but it is very likely that it is the beginning of the trap that will befall you, when they have got luck then it is very likely that their minds will definitely be happy extraordinary and indirectly true it will be very able to change their mindset slowly. Oh yes, I see that usually new gamblers who come like to be given the win first, the casino is very smart to place traps. And after that, they will think that this place can be used as a solution to multiply their money, and well then they will definitely bring more money in the hope that the victory will also be bigger than before, and that's where their destruction begins,
defeat will always dominate, there is no more victory like before and for those who always overthink and cannot control at all, they will definitely end up in a slump.

If someone can win from gambling, he can immediately stop gambling, take his winnings home, and enjoy his winnings. But what happens is that many gamblers forget to stop gambling and instead decide to continue gambling because they want a bigger win. That's what every gambler must be aware of because it means their greed has grown and they must realize it so they stop immediately. Otherwise, they will only be lured into gambling again and use their winnings. If gamblers are not aware, they will be lured into continuing to play and that is where their destruction will come. Very few will be able to win again while others will only experience many losses.

It's not healthy anymore to play without fun. Just shows you have other intention on why you keep playing even it doesn't entertain you anymore. Recovering the losses and a goal of winning huge as you have said are indeed often the reasons for gamblers to continue what they used to. It's not right, however they will only realize the mistakes after experiencing the worst like having debts.

Yeah and the best thing is stop to gamble when you not feel fun during gamble, take a break to cool down your mind, it's like don't make a decision when you're still angry. Gambling isn't the only one entertainment in this life, you can play video game, watching Netflix, hangout with your friends etc.

And if the problem worsens to the point the person cannot get entertained by other activities but gambling, then obviously that would be the time to seek for professional help.

What you said it is valid for someone who has not immersed deep enough in problem gambling, but imagine if someone who lost money and decided to cool down and get away from gambling for some days discovered he cannot feel good anymore or enjoy anything, as long as his losses stay in his mind, it is a truly sad situation to think about...

If indeed someone (gambler) has entered at such a level then well there is no other way other than maybe seeking help from professionals, but honestly I would not say that it can fully succeed because of course the reference point of whether or not it is recovered returns to the gambler, if they want to obey everything suggested by professionals then surely the chances of recovery are very large but if not then I think it will only be a waste of time. In fact everything will come back to the sincerity of themselves, the initial disease is in their wrong mindset and that can fight it all only if they try to realize that it is really useless. And even if you use professional services for this problem, the results will not be instantaneous and must go gradually.

That's right, the most dangerous and maybe it can be called addiction at the highest level if they can no longer feel any pleasure there, I have one colleague who has run out of everything and he said that even though he won but there was no sense of satisfaction or extraordinary sensation from the victory, this is what is feared, you have lost the taste. And well it doesn't hurt if you take a little time to meditate in a really quiet place to think about everything, I'm sure it can help find a decision.

The fun ends every time you lose, losing money is not much fun. But gambling players are looking for adrenaline, and it is quite possible to get it without negative consequences for your budget and emotional state. If you can’t achieve this, then of course, gambling is not for you, you need to have the courage to admit it to yourself.

I lose but still gamble because I think that this is not all about winning, perhaps we make fun of it and have some excitement. No, I was wrong as I realize that gambling too much is not fun anymore but it is just like we are chasing our losses and wanting to win. And if we are in this situation, gambling may compromise our finances and lead to suffering and regrets. And there is no fun anymore instead, we make ourselves stressed. And this is certainly be going to happen if we don't understand gambling and when we can't accept losses.

Sometimes when you lose the money,even budget pre-allocated for your gambling session normally you don't feel good,sometimes it can even sparks signs of anger at how come I lost this amount that I had allocated for gambling in such a short amount of time.If you can hold yourself calm into such situation and never looking to invest money again to gamble it means you have achieved what we call greater self control which in the long term will guarantee anyone using this as a strong defense against gambling addiction.If you cannot hold calm into such situation and you deposit more chasing your loses then you have fallen into addiction.

[mirakal]

Some people already feel like they are not having fun, because what they have in mind is making money, to all people that feels this way, If you feel like you aren't having fun I believe for the greater good, it's better to take a break from gambling and do something else.

Do you agree or disagree?

In this situation when we feel that we are not having fun at all while spending money in gambling, it can be said that it is a sign of addiction.
Of course I have to agree that we should stop at this stage, although I have to say that most gamblers will not realize that this situation as a sign of addiction.
Due to some reasons such as recovering losses or aiming to get more wins, most gamblers will continue playing although they do not feel the fun any longer while playing the game.

Gambling is actually designed to bring us fun and entertainment, and when this fun stops, that’s the time that our losses have already outnumbered our winning profits, but still we chose to continue gambling to recover our losses or to chase bigger profits in the process. When you are already in that stage, which I bet majority of the gamblers are in that situation, take a short break from gambling and do the things that will regain the fun and happiness that you are looking from gambling. By the time you will come back in gambling, maybe you become wiser on how to deal with gambling casinos.

One may start gambling for fun and some early wins then they keep playing in hopes that they will win again and experience the same good feeling. When they lose especially large losses can start a compulsive gambling cycle. If you gamble too much it becomes an addiction and it is no longer recreational. It is really difficult to get out of this situation gambling is a type of mental illness that has serious consequences. Along with economic losses, gambling causes serious deterioration of mental health.

If you posses the continuous loss in the gambling,after some loss the fun mindset for the gambler was reduced.Because he is using his own money in the gambling.At first the gambler may come to gambling for the fun,if the gambler will not have enough luck.Then the same gambling will become the real time job for the gambler.So he uses the new money into the gambling to recover the loss from the gambling.Actually if the gambler had enough luck,he can win huge money from the gambling itself.

Totally agree, gambling not only causes financial losses but also mental damage. In fact, in my opinion, if they are mentally damaged, this is more dangerous, they will start to become gambling addicts and there is a possibility that they will do anything for money and gambling.

We often see in online media that gamblers have done something illegal or ended their lives because they were unable to bear the mounting debts and damaged family relationships. When we start to stop having fun in gambling activities, it's a good idea to stop for a moment and not get carried away by emotions

To many people, they gamble because of the fun they derive from it while to many they're always gambling because they want to make money through gambling. So I think whatever might be the case, gamblers should learn when to stop gambling especially those that are good in  putting more money in gambling when they know they're losing their stakes. So in a nutshell, knowing when to stop gambling at a particular time is a very good omen.

As long as gambling continues to dangle the tantalizing words of massive wins, jackpots, or cash bonuses, the notion of making money remains enticing for some individuals. They may view gambling as a potential source of supplementary income, which, fundamentally, is a misconception.

Indeed, gambling can yield profits, but it cannot generate genuine wealth. A single substantial win cannot be deemed as legitimate wealth, for one cannot sustain a stable income through gambling. The element of luck plays a pivotal role in any game you choose.

Today might be your unlucky day, resulting in losses and frustration. On such days, any attempts to increase your funds are likely to be in vain.

Well we all know that when we have a failure that is something that will not Leave us very well Emotionally , but it is something that helps us gain experience, I personally know that the fun ends when the money is over, there is no other way, the Things are like that, unfortunately you can't continue playing in a casino when your money Runs out, Unless you Play in a demo mode, which no one does Because they don't like it, they only like games when it Comes to betting and doing it. In a big way, I could think that this type of thing can be recreated very well when we do several game sessions, if we have been winning in some game sessions, and then the Others I use them All , and if we do not run out the balance we won and the previous one, that does give a very ugly feeling, but the game is like that , Some People do it by falling into addiction and things should not be like that, if we could for a while put into the mind of an addicted player who The casino will always have the advantage that the casino will soon take your money, because one savings could not be added.

Now, when a person loses they can Experience many things on a Personal Level, Especially If They are a nervous person , it is not Recommended that they play in a casino, because obviously things can get out of control and sometimes they can go to a world where nothing matters, neither money nor what their family thinks of them or Something like that, these types of things are what we have to avoid, when we lose we must understand that it is a normal part of a player, of a casino that does not make you lose, just as winning can also be achieved, and the point is that if there were not good players, the casino or the casinos would not exist, because no one is going to have fun and leave large Amounts of money without having the option to multiply it No matter how great fun it is , it cannot be Allowed.

In fact, gamblers already know that they spend more money than they earn from gambling. It's not the promotions from the casino that attract gamblers, it's just curiosity that continues to make gamblers play and spend more money at the casino.
It is indeed difficult to quit casinos because the activity has become a habit for gamblers. there is something serious about betting every day. there are also those who do it every weekend or even once a week when they get allocated capital from their work.

I sure that almost the majority of gamblers do all that when they first enter a gambling site but in the last few years when the economy in every country has declined many new gamblers have started gambling to get profits or additional income even though in gambling there are profits that come uncertain or there is no guarantee that they will win but because of the difficulty in finding source of income they think they can easily win at gambling.

It no surprise that in this day and age pleasure is not the most important thing in gambling and you yourself must also feel the same thing namely being able to feel pleasure when you win and slowly really wanting to always be able to win until in the end you always chase it.

It not about mental singing because the difficulty of stopping is caused by desires that are always bigger than thoughts and here gamblers always have unreasonable desires namely the desire to always win and be able to change their lives from gambling.

When people think seriously about the words they see and try to get them, they will see that it is not working for them and need to end it immediately. It is a mistake if they think they can get it, especially if they see that many people have failed.

Gambling is entertainment that can also provide profits for lucky gamblers. This luck factor will not always come to gamblers, even gamblers who can win in this round will not always be able to win in the next round.

That is why you must immediately stop gambling when you have had all the pleasure. Otherwise, you will be forced to stop when all your money is used up at the gambling table. It will hurt you and cause lasting frustration.

Its interesting and touching how gaming profit is sometimes driven by silent desperation, isnt it? The human tendency to optimism, even in probable loss, is a major issue we overlook here. Its intriguing to see how humans try to make money from an uncertain activity.

Your point about gambling's pleasure being a byproduct resonates. However, does this reverse the situation? It turns enjoyment into a dangerous economic survival game.

You seem to be saying that in this perilous venture, our appetites, especially when unrestrained, exceed reasonable thought. Can a reasonable person control these inclinations to limit harm while gambling? How may mindsets change without desperation engulfing rationality?

That's right, in addition because the economy in some countries now is not good, it is difficult to find a job and the price of basic necessities is rising so high, income and expenses are not balanced and clearly more expenses than income. This situation and condition is very reasonable if we relate it to gambling, which is my belief just like you, because the economic conditions are not good now most of the gambling rates have increased and most of the people come no longer to seek pleasure but to multiply the money they bring. Honestly, I see that most of them are from the lower middle class which means that they have poor finances in their lives. I think this is quite a reasonable reason why more and more people are now gambling, on the other hand, I understand that in gambling there is a chance of winning, they are very serious in seeing this opportunity. But I think one thing they should know is that it's not really a profitable opportunity, it's just a temptation to brainwash them into continuing to gamble and hope. In gambling there are winnings but I say the chances of winning are much lower than losing and there is absolutely no guarantee that you will win.

It no surprise that in this day and age pleasure is not the most important thing in gambling and you yourself must also feel the same thing namely being able to feel pleasure when you win and slowly really wanting to always be able to win until in the end you always chase it.

It not about mental singing because the difficulty of stopping is caused by desires that are always bigger than thoughts and here gamblers always have unreasonable desires namely the desire to always win and be able to change their lives from gambling.

There are some people who come just for fun but it will not rule out that then indirectly over time they do not realize that you turn the fun into a different goal that is to seek victory, especially if you have been given a few wins there then you will continue to pursue it because in addition to the extraordinary sensation you feel you will also get money from the victory. I say it's very difficult to stop if they're already in a cycle like that, their mindset is already lost there, and well that means some advice from other people will also not be too influential for them it must be clear that all they want is to continue chasing victory, so the only thing that can stop it is themselves, by slowly changing their mindset and it must also be really strong intention to stop.

The importance of limiting your budget so that when your money runs out you can stop gambling, usually people never limit their budget when gambling so that when they lose they will make deposits repeatedly to vent their emotions which are not controlled properly, that's why people here always remind beginners that When gambling, don't ever think you can beat the dealer, because casinos were created to make money for their owners, although there are also some casinos that ultimately went bankrupt too.

Don't let emotions and greed haunt your mind because that way it will be easy to make us continue to be more curious about the losses we get, always try to catch up on losses and return the lost money. The point is that before gambling, you should limit your gambling budget because it is very important as an alarm to yourself that gambling is just entertainment so don't get carried away too deeply.

And if the problem worsens to the point the person cannot get entertained by other activities but gambling, then obviously that would be the time to seek for professional help.

What you said it is valid for someone who has not immersed deep enough in problem gambling, but imagine if someone who lost money and decided to cool down and get away from gambling for some days discovered he cannot feel good anymore or enjoy anything, as long as his losses stay in his mind, it is a truly sad situation to think about...

The fun ends every time you lose, losing money is not much fun. But gambling players are looking for adrenaline, and it is quite possible to get it without negative consequences for your budget and emotional state. If you can’t achieve this, then of course, gambling is not for you, you need to have the courage to admit it to yourself.

So true. Just today all my Bitcoin was rekt and it's actually stressful unlike when it was just going back and forth the red and green light. It feels kind of heavy when you lose it all and that is where the fun starts to be ruined. The winning moments were absolutely fun but it's only for a short span. I made my way at doubling my balance but then I could not find a way to win again.
After that, you will start thinking about depositing one more time. And then after that, you will start to think about quitting. That's how I feel after I lost my balance today and it actually helped feel me better and not regret what I lost.
I doubt I will quit though, when I get my balance again, I might want to chase those losses and hope it will pay well this time. Although I won't go as far as losing the same amount as the last one.

If you are openly admitting to keep track of your losses and even going after them, then I must tell you: you are not being a responsible gambler.

It has been said countless times around here that gambling is supposed to be about entertainment, that none of us is supposed to chase losses, and yet you may be commiting the same mistakes thousands or hundred of thousands before you did before getting completely empty-pocketed.

If you cannot control yourself, then seek for help. It is correct thing to do before you lose more of the remaining control you have over yourself..
