Gamblers should not believe in first game win trap

[Jody.Drummer]

Alright, it's true that the next step a new individual to gambling might probably take after getting a win or a loss in his first time of ever gambling is all depending on his mindset towards gambling. It's is of a certainty that by getting a win at your first gambling you will be lured to gamble more and more in a chase for more more wins which mostly lead to losses instead. There are persons that lost at first and still got addictive while some others won at first hand and stopped there never got addicted. However, the tendency for a new gambler to get easily addicted quickly to gambling is higher in the part of getting a win in the first time of gambling due to the excitement for more continuous wins.

It is very possible, and for the problem of how high their level of interest in gambling after getting the first win I think it really comes back to their perspective on gambling, and also their personal life situation and conditions also play a role in this, it seems like for example those who only have below average or even poor finances in my opinion they will be more likely to put full interest in gambling, it cannot be denied that they will think that gambling is a pretty good place to make money and improve their financial situation which is quite bad.

Something like that is very likely to lead someone into addiction, a very high interest will make them put high expectations as well and after that it is very likely that they will enter the cycle of "winning happy and losing curious". Basically, the situation they experience there is just spinning, chasing victory at the expense of some defeat and when they get a victory then the amount they get usually can only return all the capital they have sacrificed at the beginning or can be said to be a break-even point, actually there is nothing better except to stop or to just reduce it.

first win may be the first factor in someone becoming addicted because that when dopamine increases giving excessive pleasure and the mindset becomes thinking that gambling can provide large amounts of money in a short time and that when gamblers who bet for the first time will feel greedy and start gambling again without realized he was entering the addiction zone at an early stage.

and for gamblers who lose almost all the time for the first time, they feel afraid to gamble again because it is the first time they have lost and at that time they will feel hesitant to gamble again.

but in my opinion, this is all just about the condition of each individual mindset, even if they lose or win the initial bet, if their mind is very broad and understands the negative impacts of gambling, they will definitely not be addicted, but in general, winning has a big chance of becoming addicted.

First game win trap do works on some people, generally I believe it depends on the gamblers, you never know how they will react, some will win and they will start thinking that gambling is this easy and some won't, it depends on who you are.

If all people in the world are new to gambling, it's highly likely that only 1 out of a thousand will win on their first game, it doesn't always happen this way, I don't see any reason to be worried for such people, if they win the first game it's certain they won't win the second one, they will learn what it feels like to lose in gambling.

Peoples mindset are different for many reasons, I could have lost it all in gambling but because I have heard a lot of bad things about gambling and gamblers I choose to be very careful with gambling and the possible effect it can have on me, if you allow it I believe gaming is powerful to break you or anyone.

There is no lie in the fact that new gamblers usually have a higher chance of getting addicted to gambling if they manage to win and get a profit in their first couple of gambling sessions because it's human nature that someplace where you've got something that made you happy, you tend to go back to that place again just in the hope that you might get some happiness again from there, the feeling that you've felt earlier won't be easily forgotten and it will keep making you think about it all the time.

So, if gamblers lose money in their starting gambling sessions, they won't think of gambling again because they will remember the bad experience they had in the beginning. However, gamblers who manage to get some profit initially when they get into gambling will surely gamble again because they had a great experience earlier.

I agree! sometimes those people who have had an experience of winning on their first try are the one who possibly get addicted because as you have said, it's a human nature that if a person satisfy on their first try, they tend to go back and doing it again without noticing that there's something wrong happen. I believe that you can automatically win if a system noticed that you're a new player or newly created account for those online gambling, there's a tendency that you will get to win but on the latter part, you will notice the consecutive losses that's why people should aware about beginners luck.

People who gamble for the first time often get lucky and can win at gambling. But when he repeats gambling another day, he may not be as lucky as on the first day because there is a possibility that he will lose and that will trigger him to gamble longer to recover his losses. Thinking about winning at gambling will make the gambler deeper into gambling and he can end up becoming addicted to gambling. This has been experienced by many gamblers out there. They end up losing control of themselves and cannot use gambling properly. But if after playing gambling several times, he can understand that gambling is not for making money, he will understand that he does not need to gamble for too long and will limit his gambling activities.

[lienfaye]

Playing for the first time is not the basis if the gambler is going to become addicted or not. Regardless of you win or lose when you first time playing, it still depends on your mindset towards gambling. Is it a way to make money or just for entertainment?

But there are people who see losses as an indication to just stop because of that bad experience. While others chose to continue to somehow recover back their money. Some of us believe that winning can trigger the gambler to keep playing, it might be true. But again, it depends on how you treat gambling, how you value your money to risk in games where luck is a major factor to be able to win. Because if you have no discipline and just let your emotion control you, certainly gambling can affect you negatively that can lead to addiction.

Those who win when they play gambling for the first time, of course they don't understand how to play this gambling well and they play without having the burden and also the target of being able to win so that they can easily win and when they understand how the game works. It will be very difficult to win because they have set a big target to win the gambling.

If they are just starting to gamble and win, it would be better for them to still be able to control themselves in the game, don't let them play the game continuously because this will get them into trouble.

Gamblers should not believe in first game win trap

Experts conducted research that 80% of basic gamblers are trapped in the main win, thus making them addicted and losing a lot of money in the gambling arena. The first winning trap trick has been used for centuries by online and offline casinos.

Human nature is generally greedy, curious and ambitious, where they first gamble and win, the desire to increase their balance for a second win is strong, not knowing that they have fallen into a trap and lost everything.

My advice is to gamble without prioritizing emotions and greed, consider all gambling activities carefully, the first win is the beginning of suffering, so gamble without greed.

A first time win can encourage a newbie in gambling to become comfortable and believe that winning is easy in gambling, and he can continue gambling until he'll probably lose all the wins and initial capital and then starts to chase loses with new capital. Although this is not a guarantee that the gambler will end up as an addict, he might decide along the way to gamble responsibly or quit, or he might choose to be greedy and continue to gamble heavily in order to recover loses. So in the end it's not really because of first win or lose that makes people to be gambling addicts, it's the decision and discipline of the gambler in the long run that determines whether he'll gamble responsibly or become an addict.

A simple definition to avoid addiction will be gamble for fun and use a budgeted capital for it, no matter how the game turns out, win or lose when the gambling budget is exhausted, then call it quit till the next budget.

Maybe what you say is true, for the problem of the number of wins it is indeed out of our control or even the gambler who does the session and I say it seems like they are being lucky at the beginning of their involvement. Of course it won't always work, or I mean they won't always get lucky to win in every session, I said out of 10x tries there might only be 1 or 2x wins that occur with a certain amount. Because basically gambling does not have any certainty for gamblers to get a pretty good result or vice versa, therefore it is absolutely not recommended for them to overdo it, especially with the amount of budget that is beyond their ability, it will only make them feel disappointed and hurt.

Another thing is that I don't think there is a strategy that will work 100% accurately to increase your chances of luck, the randomness that exists in gambling is real and has been proven by several cases of gamblers who lose more than earn even though they use the best way according to them, so it's better not to believe in it too much and you better apply a lot of restrictions strictly for your safety.

Indeed, the first win can make gamblers more careless because they are curious and challenged to win again, even with larger amount, they will spend more money to chase this win.
But telling those who are just starting to gamble or are beginner gamblers will only be in vain and cannot have any impact or impact on them because what they really have is their goal of winning.
From this it can be concluded that victory is their goal and we cannot change things like that and only they themselves can correct what has been wrong in their thinking for the purpose of winning.

But if it is said that only the first win is the most dangerous then that is not true because defeat is also very dangerous.
Just relying on surveys that have not been clearly proven cannot be used as an accurate assessment.
Just as comparison, winning will be difficult to obtain and they will stop chasing victory if they have experienced many defeats, but the first defeat will make the gambler disappointed and try to recover and it clear that the two are equal.

[topbitcoin]

The first win that we get, can lead to an assumption that this gambling can give us profit.  The victory at the beginning of the game, can make us careless in gambling because we think that luck and victory are on our side. So we behave carelessly by increasing the amount of bets up to many times. And the victory at the end of the game, this can lead to an assumption, that there is always hope even though your balance has started to run low. And again this can cause us to behave carelessly, by continuing to play even though we have often lost.

And departing from that, it is important for us to be wiser in responding to all the wins we get in gambling. Do not let the victory we get can change our behavior in gambling.

[Crypt0Gore]

It's a big trap for every beginners, it doesn't have to be the first try, assuming they start with Slots game and after six rounds they net good amount of money, they will probably think it's this easy to win money in a casino, that's where they will start having dreams in their head, they will straight think about their bank account and how much they have.

It's very possible to be a addicted gambler from day one if you start winning straight away, all the hard earned money you keep in your bank account will be your next target, someone very close did this in 2022 and he went so broke that he returned to driving job he once left six years ago.

It's better to understand what you are getting into before going fully desperate on it, know and understand the risk of gambling, you will safe yourself from desperate attempt, it's 95% chances of never getting anything out of gambling, you don't want to bet your life on it.

I think you got it wrong? It's not the first "game", but rather the first "win" that they get. So it doesn't matter even if you did the survey you're talking about. And in the case that I was pertaining to, first wins usually have a bigger dose of dopamine imo since it's the first time you both won a gamble and you received money through it at the same time. While it may not apply to all of us, I reckon most of us had that surge of adrenaline at that point.

But if it were your case, It's just a never-ending cycle really, regardless if you win most of the time or lose most of the time. Both sides have that incentive of persuading you to bet more with losing being "recoup" and winning being "win more" kind of idea.

And departing from that, it is important for us to be wiser in responding to all the wins we get in gambling. Do not let the victory we get can change our behavior in gambling.

I'm sure we've all been beginners at gambling, that's why advice like this is very important, don't get caught up in the first win you get because it's not necessarily completely ours, it could be that when we continue playing, the winning money will actually be drained again, the point is don't let the victory blind our eyes and make us forget to stop gambling.

For experienced gamblers those who are trying to play at a new casino for the first time to win there usually they know what they have to do which is to withdraw a few percent of the winnings and leave a little to gamble again and continue the game if they lose they will leave and come back later, this it is important for beginners to follow the way experienced players play so as not to get stuck on their first play. control emotions in any situation

Unless some gambling platforms intentionally do this, I think it’s just luck but we pay a lot of attention to it because “it’s my first time and I won”. Gambling and losing the first time happens too, we just try to play again but forget that we would have recorded it in our head that we lost the first time so there would be no believe tied to the first win mentality. But note that no matter what, consistently playing or addiction has nothing to do with if you win or not… after all some people have self control and know their limit no matter how much they win.

but in my opinion, this is all just about the condition of each individual mindset, even if they lose or win the initial bet, if their mind is very broad and understands the negative impacts of gambling, they will definitely not be addicted, but in general, winning has a big chance of becoming addicted.

        -  Actually, the first win at the casino is really the first trap for a gambler to become addicted, and winning at gambling is the way for a gambler to return to the casino. That's true, and I believe that.

But it didn't lead me to become addicted to gambling; I only play gambling occasionally when I have too much money or I'm bored, because gambling gives me entertainment and also relieves me when I'm in trouble sometimes.

[danherbias07]

It's dangerous for gamblers who will think that they could repeat the same win over and over again. That could actually lead to gambling addiction because they are hoping over and over again and even if they are losing more they will try again because they already experience winning once or twice.
But correct, if a gambler is in control then this kind of trap is nothing to worry about. If we already accepted that it's going to be difficult to win against the house then we are okay. Only those who are too optimistic to think that they can defeat them with a large margin will be the ones who are in trouble.
I've experienced winning as a newbie and I already withdrawn the money from the gambling site and enjoyed all the profits with my kids. After that rest, I played back and luckily won again. Enjoyed that profit one more time until in the recent couple of months I am not able to win anymore. It's like everything I won was taken back and in my computation, most of the profits from before are almost equal to the losses in USD.
But that didn't make me a gambling addict, I still have control that whenever my budget is done, I will stop. That made me realize that gambling will take back what we won, it may take them a long time but they will claim it back slowly unless we get out of casino games.

Is it naive to reduce addiction to mentality and discipline? We must accept casinos' clever strategies for hooking gamblers. Everything from slot machine sounds and lights to casino floor architecture is carefully engineered to attract and retain gamblers. In addition to strength, a person must understand their environment. Every piece is designed to attack human vulnerabilities in this psychological battleground. Isnt it equally vital to teach potential gamblers about these traps as mindset?

Money and winning are triggers, yes. What about societal factors? Do peer pressure, gambling camaraderie, and the glamorization of "large winnings" contribute to addiction? Gambling is social. Gambling may be for fun or profit, but social dynamics often influence behavior. Why not also address these social factors and educate individuals about how they can be quietly manipulated into gambling more than they intended? Not just the individual, but the gambling ecosystem. Dont we need a broader, more comprehensive approach to identify and reduce gambling addiction risks?
