Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling

[khiholangkang]

For me, the best practice is to have a separate account for games, an email and phone number that I use only for this activity. It’s easier to separate the industry and everyday life, and thus the chance of my account being hacked is much less since it doesn’t appear almost anywhere.I know several people who do the same.

What do you mean by games? Separate account for each games on a single casino? I think it's not right, maybe separate account account for each casino. I'm talking about the email and phone number that is used on a casino. It's not a bad way to avoid being hit by a catastrophic loss in case you account gets hacked but I think it is a hassle to have so many alternative email especially phone number where not every country can get multiple phone number. It's not that clear for me on what do you exactly mean by separate account for games but that is my guess.

Yes, maybe that is what he meant, my understanding also interpreted the same thing about what he said.
The goal is to protect his own account in case of hacking, and it is quite useful to anticipate it, using a different email account at each casino I think is good and I also do that, even though I use the same cellphone number, because I have a limit on having a number. mobile phone.

So far I don't think it's a hassle, sometimes if I feel that the number I'm using is already registered at two different casinos and I want to open another account at another casino, I can use my friend's or other family's cell phone number, even though they don't know I'm registering. yourself to create an account on the gambling platform. lol

All links you provide OP is very good and for sure many new gamblers have learn a lot of things through that gathered Link.  And yes before we gamble we must check first the sites and  also our account in order to avoid such mistakes. We must check the casino if it is legit or not and we must check our account if we violate the rules and regulations from the casino or not .

Well, you are very close (if not on the spot) about this. We can't be safe if put "all eggs in one basket", we can't trust one service with all we have. I gamble for years, and I trusted many services with my funds, but never with all I had. That's the difference. So people should never go all in just like that before they test the service. So the best practice to stay safe is to deposit 10% of your amount (more or less), and if that goes right you can deposit more, if not just stay away from that.

If you don't keep yourself safe, nobody else will do it for you...

[Slow death]

In my opinion, one of the ways for a person to stay safe when using a casino is to place money in a phased manner, for example a person creates an account at a casino, but that person has 300$ allocated to gambling, that 300$ is an amount that this person will not need in case he loses everything, so what this person should do is deposit 50$ in the casino and play, in case he wins and makes him have more than 50$, then withdraw the profit and keep the 50$ you deposited, but in case you lose all 50$ then deposit another 50$ in the casino and play with the 50$ you deposited, in case you lose all 50$ again, then deposit another 50$ again and play with him

With this, this person will not lose all their money if the casino becomes a scam, but what I have seen is that many people have already forgotten where to keep money and in their wallet, so people take all the money they have destined for games and deposit it everything in the casino and when the casino becomes a scam, people despair because that was a value that they could have placed a lot of bets on and instead of doing that, the casino became a scam and stole all their money. This idea of mine also applies to new casinos, people shouldn't put a lot of money into a new casino right away

they should put money in phases when the person also wants to use a new casino, that way even when the new casino becomes a scam it will not steal all the money from the person, the main capital destined for games would be in a very secure wallet and the casino would just would have managed to steal little money that the person deposited at the casino. but many people don't do this because they look at the bonus requirement and as we know, casinos set a high minimum value for people to deposit so that they have a bonus, and this sign-up bonus has other requirements that are much more difficult to meet, but the people don't listen

The techniques are not really that specific. Mask thyself with a VPN, only use trusted sites that have a reputation and mostly good comments and good marketing on this forum and exercise common sense - if it looks too good be sure it is too good. Anyone in crypto that has not learned this should not be surprised if thing go south. Think very carefully in any situation in which your money and you are parting ways.

This is something I agree with but not only for the reasons you state, another reason is that maybe at some point in time you would like to take a break from gambling, whether the break is permanent or temporary does not matter, however this is almost impossible to do if you do not keep you personal accounts and your gambling accounts separated, as now everything you do is tracked online and at some point you will receive all kind of spam and notifications related to gambling that at the time you are not interested on seeing, but that could eventually persuade you to go back to gambling way sooner than what you wanted.

For sure he might be talking about separate account which would really be pertaining about emails been used and numbers on which in case there's some breach of those information then he/she wont really be able

to be worried about if ever that happens since its not his main email.Its always been that recommended on doing so on which making use of separate emails for you to be able to make yourself that
avoid with those kind of situations. Security or putting up yourself on somewhat less risks would really be acquired through these kind of actions which it is somewhat that pretty basic or in default if we do talk
about safety. Staying safe could really be pertain whether on security of your account literally or safe on the sense that you are really that making yourself that been wary about the potential
risks of gambling addiction.

Whatever the thing is, the main important is that you should really be wary about on the right things that needs to be done and things need to be avoided so that
you wont really be experiencing some problems or issues afterwards.

I think these one are real serious:
- Not losing your head when gambling that means only playing with the money that we can afford to lose.
- Secondly only playing on the reputed sites. Yeah I mean there hundreds of them getting developed every other month and it becomes confusing in deciding to stick to one or two or ten casinos at the same time. The only thing that makes us jump to other casinos is their promotions. Whenever they are new they will throw any sort of promotion our way and make us feel pristine. But that’s just temporary as way to get our ass registered on their site. It’s far better to check the reputation (that no one can guarantee) and then only step in to play.

This is extensive article for sure. I did not know there are other articles written by legends around here. Good to see quality content here.

I think it is not only about money but also the time allocation, the emotions and control.  Losing heads means losing control over something.  In short we must gambling responsibly and moderate our gambling activities.

I agree that playing in a reputed site give us peace of mind and enable us to play with full focus.  This also affect our gambling experience because we will never enjoy playing in a casino when there is doubt in our minds.

     -    At this point, you are right, mate. The email that will be used in a casino here in crypto gambling should be the casino's only; don't use an email that you have been using personally for a long time. But in KYC, it's our choice whether we give or not.
We know that, as others say, once you have given the Kyc, the risk is there.

We don't know or are not sure if they will use it for good or for bad; we have no idea. It would be good if they didn't use it for evil intent. But in my experience, I have not yet known that my documents have been used for bad things because, so far, the casino that I gambled at seems to be fine somehow.

I think this is a major problem with gamblers after their gambling. Nobody wants to loss but however in the course of gambling, one must win and loss as well so walking away with that is what most gamblers can not Comprehend

A person needs to understand and accept the potential outcomes before starting to gamble, you can't expect to win all the time when the results are totally dependent on your luck and you can't always be lucky.

In that case they decide to go beyond their budget limit just to chase their losses with mindset of winning and when doing that, they keep losing more and more and this however results to addiction and it continues that way again and again.

Responsible gamblers don't do that, it's a practice done by amateurs who don't understand how things actually work and they don't have any idea about gambling in the first place, all they have ever thought was that they can earn a lot of money from gambling and it's as easy as drinking water which is not true and when they face the reality, they just can't accept it.

That is why it is said to be probably fair. As a gambler, one should know that not every time  luck shines on them so therefore, there must always be a time when one would  win and also time when it would not be in their favour so that is how the gambling game rolls. So while going to gamble it should always be at the mind of a gambler to know that such could be the outcome of the game he it she wants to gamble.

Gamblers are humans and therefore could go at any extent to cover their lapses and in that course something otherwise might take place. Be it amateur or responsible gambler, sometimes things just works out that way and the gambler might out of self control decide to chase his or her loss and in that course, records more losses.

Using a burner is not a bad idea, and keeping mail separate is kind of a must have for nearly all your life deals regardless is you are going to be playing on-line or not. It is not that easy to actually keep your information private and unlinked from your different "lifes" to be honest, one would need to follow a 200 pages manual to make sure the information remains segregated.

[Webetcoins]

We have heard advice of setting out a certain budget for gambling either weekly or monthly and when such a budget is exhausted, we have to wait till the next circle begins. This is very easy to say but difficult to implement especially for people who spends extra vangantly.
It takes decipline not to gamble even when you have the money just because you want to operate within your budget. Humans desire for more money will always make majority to ignore the basic rules of gambling with what you can afford to lose.

What is the big challenge with knowing that you should only afford to make a deposit of the amount you can't find displeasure in loosing for gambling, i believe we cannot gemble beyond the limit of what's on our gambling casino wallet, isn't this a safe method on it own that when we don't have enough funds on the account wallet then we cannot gamble, gambling is simple to enjoy when we do the needful and go by the way it is supposed, if we are not getting the expected delivery we want in gambling, then something from our own side is wrong as well.

If we are not an addicted gambler, we can stick to our limits. For those who are addicted, they need another method in order for their funds to be safe. Not having enough funds, can sound like we still have some funds left. Some casinos has no restriction in terms of deposit, so some gamblers will try their luck using that small amount and see if they can grow it bigger.

It's still possible to play gambling even without a money involved. You can only get an entertainment here though (not profit). If we can't feel any pleasure with gambling, why would we still do it? But, I don't think there are people who are like that when it comes to gambling.

A responsible gambler can take care of himself and will not exceed his budget limits. And even though they have experienced defeat, they will not try to catch up because they want to recover their lost money. They realize it is difficult to do so they may prefer to stop gambling rather than risk an even bigger loss. It won't be worth what they will get later, especially since this is gambling where they might not get a bigger chance of winning. So it's better for them to gamble casually and try to enjoy it.

A responsible gambler surely will always maintain their stand in gambling responsibly.  Irrespective of their loss or wins, they have already instilled that thought of self discipline in them so therefore nothing will deter them for going against gambling more than their limits.  They already know the system and it's dynamics so would want to be on the safe side by cautious as they know what is obtainable in the gambling terrain.

That's why I always say that knowing how gambling actually works is very important to avoid wrong thinking like so many nowadays most young people and old people think that gambling makes money quickly and if you are lucky it really makes money quickly but luck estimates in gambling there is no more than 0.9% in fact it is almost very difficult to get that luck so by having the right thoughts and understanding of how gambling works they will not have the wrong understanding of gambling.
The best practice for staying safe in gambling for me is just to always remember that a gambling business is provided to provide profits for gambling owners so it will not be possible to provide profits to customers and always remember the bad side of gambling that gambling is only a profitable place for the business and we as gamblers should not be too put a lot of money into gambling.
This practice seems to me to be very safe and will encourage good thinking in a gambler.

Most times we have fallen victim to a few scam casinos and this are all because we failed to carry out proper check to know the legitimacy of those casinos and what level of reputation they have built for themselves over time to warrant us trusting them, and such casino always promise gamblers high bonuses all to trap their money when the deposits or big winning is made.
Is very important to always check the level of the reputation and amount of liquidity of the casino and only gamble only on casinos that have existed for quite a long time and built good network

The issues most people have is that they don’t know when to stop. I have numerously seen people win a lot of money and still lose everything the same moment. I think setting a winning limit is very crucial. However, you mustn’t reach that limit to be content. So in case you’re reading this, my advice is that if you set a winning limit of let’s say $100, it’s okay to stop at $80.

I don't know why you are so worried about getting gambling account hacked because we just deposit money which we can afford to lose we do not deposit amount here like we do in bank account.
Having different phone number, email, etc. For the money which we want to or going to lose in the end..?
