Does the tension make you take risk that are sometimes worth it?

[Jaycoinz]

We all know that gambling sometimes can be fun and something not, even if we  blatantly claim here that we do gamble alone for the fun purpose 🙄🙄. Truth be told majority of person actually gamble because of the possibility that they can earn some profits from the act and as we all know it , not all the time the end result is what we expected. Although am not an addicted gambler but I can say I do my fair share of gambling activities sometimes and what I have observed is that sometimes I actually make some hard calls that turn out to be fruitful when ever am tenced but the results may differ for different individuals though.

So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.

Why will one have to gamble under any form of pressure? If you are in tension of any kind, you should stay away from the casino and don't have to gamble at all because your judgement and decision about your gambling habit will be based on your mindset.
 
Unless you totally depend on gambling for survival, if you don't play and win any day, you won't have anything to go back home with. That's the only time I see that someone can be gambling under tension, as if their life depends on it.
 
That's the only time the person can be gambling under tension, which is not a good thing for anyone leaving their normal life to do, so to answer your question, I have not gambled under any form of pressure before, and if I'm having any form of unbalanced emotion, I don't even think about visiting the casino because I might end up making the wrong decisions.

Majority of newbie gamblers may want to gamble and earn money, but ones they are losing, they will realize that gambling should just be for fun. If you have some money to spend on beer, you can also have money to spend on gambling for fun.

if you want to make money from gambling, still always use little amount of money to gamble.

So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.

When I was an addict, I gamble and tensed sometimes, but when I am not more addicted, I use just little amount to gamble and losing can not give me any tension or stress.

[Jody.Drummer]

I think for that problem quite depends on how the gambler's point of view, in my opinion all gamblers will never be able to lie to themselves about what they feel, simply put if they win then obviously their feelings will definitely be happy and if on the contrary if they lose then of course even though they always say gambling is just for fun but I'm sure at least there will definitely be a feeling of annoyance with a little disappointment because the final result turns out to lose again.

The decisions that are made when they are in a depressed situation will usually produce quite disappointing results, that's always what I experience when I can't hold my emotions in some sessions that I do, sometimes not only in gambling but for other things it's the same if you make decisions when you are in a depressed situation and away from calmness then the end result is more disappointing, but sometimes there are also some that turn out to be in line with expectations because maybe at the same time luck comes, but on the other hand honestly I would recommend to be strict on boundaries, if you experience a situation that is enough to make you feel depressed then it's better to take a break first, it's better.

[SmartGold01]

Gambling is game of the mind and not the game of pressure and I don't see any reason why would involved himself into pressure rather than just staying away. When you want to gamble and you noticed you aren't in a good mood it's better to stay clear at the moment and remain cool.
People always want to remain among winning side by making themselves too much relevance without knowing they are gradually involving themselves into addiction and to stop this such person has to be neutral when it comes of gambling than attaching much value while gambling.

[Yogee]

It could be just for fun when the amount you bet is within your limits. If you start tensing up then that probably means you're taking it more seriously and playing out of your usual style. That seriousness take out the funness in gambling.

[....]So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.

I've won some and have been burned like many other gamblers.

[bittraffic]

Yep there are times that it's due to under pressure that people resort to gambling. This is evident in poor individuals who have no jobs and are trying to make money because there is the need to. I have my experience in doing so when I was trying to rebuild my motorbike and I need some cash and I need money to buy parts.

This is just my own example but what if a renter of an apartment will be evicted if he can't pay tomorrow? This is going to be a huge gamble for him.

[Jawhead999]

How it can be an appropriate comparison when this forum only have 51,919 active accounts and the world population are almost 8 Billions? It's not even reach 1%.

If majority of this forum think gambling is for fun, then it's good since they have a good mind. Similar to gambling addiction forum or site, you will get a similar answer if gambling is only for fun or might ask you to stop it.

But if you ask it in making money online forum, they won't say gambling is for fun.

[I_Anime]

Yep sometimes gambling and most time frustrating too. During my beginners luck I admit was indeed fun and fruitful too but as time goes the losses started overwhelming. Like most when  I started gambling I hardly feel tense because didn't take as something I can't leave without but when the losses started my tensions initiated. Which sometimes brings profit a d Aslong bring losses because I'm the type that can't think  properly when  tensed so I will gambling with tense can go either way it might even end up not Worthing it.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

Well, I hardly will gamble while under pressure, I mean, I have never done it and maybe I will never do it, and this is not to say that I do not slip into pressure when already in the middle of gambling, this has happened to me on several occasions and to be honest, the very many times I can still remember, that gambling session never ends well, or as expected, as I always end up playing to fast and losing more than I budgeted for.

Gambling under pressure mostly happens to me when am in the middle of gambling, and on the losing side, something very important came up that would require me to leave that gambling to attend to that that just came up, and because I am losing, I am eager to win atleast, some of the money I've lost before leaving the game, so, I start playing fast, and if the losing continues, pressure sets in and at the end of the day, I find myself forcefully leaving the game in anger.

Gambling under pressure is not fun at all, it's not entertaining, Infact, it's the direct opposite and fun or entertainment, and though there is a slight chance that one could still end up winning, most gamblers still end in huge loses while playing under this condition.

[moneystery]

i used to be like that too where i bet more when i was under high tension when playing. it's like an addiction i think and i enjoy being in that position, and i did it a few times when i felt that i needed more money. but honestly, it's like a disease that will destroy you over time because it will make you more wasteful and unable to control yourself. luckily i'm not like that anymore, because i think that it's not worth it to gamble more especially when under pressure.

[Mauser]

So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.

I don't think that the pressure or stress we experience when gambling is anything unique to gambling. Life itself has a lot of pressure, that comes from our work, problems at home, health issues or any other form of activities that involve money and risk. For example, a trader will be very used to dealing under pressure and has mechanism to not be affected by it severely. For me the best approach to gambling is to look at it as a form of entertainment. I try to have fund and a good time, if things get to intense I will just quit for the night and try again another day. That's the good thing about gambling, the games are always the same and will be around 24/7. There is no need to spend all day at the casino, we can just spread our time out over a week or two.

[Ruttoshi]

Gambling under pressure is not a healthy practice because when you gamble under pressure, you can make wrong decisions that will lead to a big loss, and the only way one can gamble under pressure is when that gambler is chasing his loss. It might work for you, doesn't mean it worked, it was just that you were lucky to win while you were chasing your loss.

I only gamble when I am have and in a good mood because I want to have fun and ease myself from the week stress at work. Also if you only gamble with a little amount, I don't see why you will be under pressure when losing. It is better to quit the game when I am under pressure.

[bluebit25]

First of all the choice is yours, you can choose how you want to be treated in this field, but be honest that mistakes are also yours, when people only like to think about winning but don't like the feeling of losing. I learned a few things in life, joy comes from ourselves and not from external things that are active, I am always confident that with gambling it is fun, yes even when losing I will still be happy because that is the experience of life, not to make yourself miserable by choosing suffering. Perhaps it is from the point of view that we receive problems and respond to them in our own ways, but it is true that the gambling environment has many problems, when from the beginning if we understand them more closely, it is in the game our lives are also real bets. It can be said that the casino is a winner for players, but if players only know the story of making money, they will only stop having fun with victories.

[piebeyb]

Responsible gamblers are usually much calmer when gambling, so there is no feeling of tension, let alone pressure that makes them feel uncomfortable, gambling must be truly enjoyed, don't always think and obsess, the end result will be good because gambling is unpredictable, luck will determine the outcome. Finally, never take the risk of playing irresponsibly, let alone feel pressure when gambling.

Always remember that gambling should be part of entertainment that can make anyone have fun when gambling, don't think that risk is something scary because that is part of gambling too, for example when you win you have to be prepared to lose and if you want to be successful then you have to be prepared to fail that's how it works, play and enjoy gambling it will all seem better.

Not all gamblers. These are gamblers that are risking too much money. If you use small amount of money to be gambling, you will be losing and still be happy and not sad nor tensed.

Gambling under pressure is not a healthy practice because when you gamble under pressure, you can make wrong decisions that will lead to a big loss, and the only way one can gamble under pressure is when that gambler is chasing his loss. It might work for you, doesn't mean it worked, it was just that you were lucky to win while you were chasing your loss.

Some gamblers may be losing and continue gambling and gain the money back, that is because they are just lucky because the time a gambler is chasing loss is when they are most vulnerable to lose more. It is not good to chase losses when gambling.

[Rruchi man]

So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.

Pressure or tension can bring or lead to different outcomes. Tension can make you not to overthink your options or chances  when gambling. Sometimes overthinking can be an enemy to luck based games. Some gamblers will tell you that they won from gambling on some days that they expected it less.

Pressure or tension can also cause errors and make a gambler make the wrong pick in gambling.

[electronicash]

when you have nothing in your pocket, everything you do is under pressure. you live with your family without something to contribute, you gonna have some issues to solve. you gotta have something to contribute like paying a water bill or the internet connection bill at least.

losing in the casino will bring more pressure hanging on your shoulder. i think i would rather not bet when i'm not sure to win. but i did gamble at a billard table with just a promise to pay. if i lost the game and they found out i had no money, i might just be in a big trouble. luckily i won.

[TheUltraElite]

Gambling comes from the greed of humans and while games are going on tension builds up. One leads to another and the losses will lead to more tension - so its a vicious cycle indeed.

But the tension will not guarantee that you will win the next bet. Instead you are running the same odds and will likely lose again. While this might not be fun for some, a few addicted gamblers fake this as fun to cover up their shame.

Hence it is never worth taking a risk unless you have some skill on the game or you have some insider news. Usually both of these are a big no, so the safest way is not to gamble.

[Porfirii]

According to an existing theory, many people have the impulse to go all-in when almost everything was lost.

For example, if someone lost let's say 90% of his money, it seems that there are many chances for him to bet the remaining 10% trying to recover from the loss (even in the cases where that 10% makes the difference between positive balance and default) even if the chances to win are very low, because he will be focused in the possibility of a comeback.

On the other hand, someone who didn't lose any money and is offered a chance of 90% of winning will hesitate (he will focus on the possibility of losing all his money).

In terms of probability both behaviors are not rational, but we aren't always reasonable, are we? so I guess that there are many stories about people who, under stress, went all-in and won, because we could say that it is somehow natural and many people behave like that; but we shouldn't forget that the majority don't win.
