Alter Ego In Gambling

[SeriouslyGiveaway]

How about you Are you gambling in a way that is very different from your true personality,

I think when he gambles, his true personality is revealed, because only when doing things directly related to life or money can he reveal his hidden personality. Sometimes everyday life forces him to create a cover and not live up to his personality, and he is satisfied with his personality when playing because no one is looking at or judging him. In everyday life, sometimes I also have some different personalities which depend on different situations.
Mostly I have to live for my family, so when it comes to spending or investing where my wife knows, so I have to be very careful and cannot take risks. But when I gamble, or invest in crypto (this is money that my wife and family don't know about), I can feel comfortable taking risks, because if I lose, at least it won't affect to my wife and family. I think many of us also have different parts of our personalities where we play things that are not looked at or judged by others.

It could be that the situation will be like that so that in gambling, we will see how he really is. That means he seems to have multiple personalities, which he will use according to his conditions. He must be careful with the people around him by not showing their dark side to them because everyone has a dark side they don't want to show to those closest to them. They are really good at hiding their other personalities from people because perhaps they have been used to doing it for a long time, so they don't have any trouble and look like they are professionals. And from the gambling game, we can see a different personality from him that maybe we wouldn't see in his normal life. It could be that he is protecting his prestige from people, so he is trying to hide his dark side. I think I've seen this before from some people in my circle, but they keep saying that they don't do it and still hide it from people.

That's true. In real life it's difficult to take risks, in gambling online we are different, we can somehow pull some courage and try different things that we don't normally do. We can be braver. While some do it the other way. They take risks but not as far as they do in their personal life and gambling is just entertainment for them so they put small bets only which I think is fine, or actually better than being careless with their money. They know how to keep their emotions at bay and they won't just spend money that is meant for other things.
Personality changes are normal when we are on a different side which I think happens a lot nowadays. Young guys especially, because they have their own different characters when they are online but can be silent when talking to people personally. They can talk more when they are unseen while they zip their mouths when facing another human being.
I think the same goes when it comes to gambling, especially those who are active in chatrooms. I've seen characters that I don't think can happen in person where they get so aggressive at talking to other people and sometimes asking for a fight. That's because their faces won't be revealed so their courage are so high that they think they can say anything.

I'd say I pretty much do the same, only in reverse. In real life, I'm much more likely to take a risk which might or not pay off. When I gamble tho, I tend to be more cautious and reserved, as I understand chances are against me, and substantial losses could happen quite quickly. The attitude helped me save a lot on Roobet and Dplay, and only once on Stake I actually lost some money I considered to be something I didn't want to happen again, so that only reinforced my future behavior.

That’s why the best is to only gamble money you can afford to lose and that won’t make a big difference for you
I know its not the coolest and most exciting strategy but better safe than sorry

What do you think?

[Fundamentals Of]

I don't think I have one, but I also know some individuals who are like your friend. They are too simple in other things like their looks, but they spend big on gambling. I'm also a simple man myself but I don't spend much on gambling. I gambling moderately. So even if I don't eat at expensive restaurants or don't wear branded clothes, I'm not spending the rest of the money in gambling. I sometimes bet big but that's not at the expense of my other needs such as food. I don't sacrifice my other needs just for gambling.

Be grateful if you can get rid of your ego in gambling. because this is a basic human characteristic that has been present since birth, of course there must be this characteristic.
If you can't control it, it's very annoying when gambling and will only result in bigger losses.

I just discovered a friend's personality, who in real life is very thrift and very conservative but once he played online in casinos he became very reckless and loved to play the risks because for him when it comes to gambling if you cannot take a risk you don't have a chance to win big, that's a big contrast from his real personality for him he has alter ego when it comes to gambling, so his outlook and decision is very much different when playing.

How about you Are you gambling in a way that is very different from your true personality,

Is there any study, which proves that your personality has something to do with your style of gambling? I don't know about such study.
Maybe you don't really know your friend. I don't think that somebody can be a huge risk taker in gambling and very cautious and conservative in his normal life. Maybe your friend is at the early stages of developing a gambling addiction. You should talk to him about this.
I'm conservative in life, but I'm also conservative in gambling. I don't like taking huge risks in both life and gambling. I like to be predictable and stable.

People can act in very different ways at times, like when they're gaming. There are people who use gambling as a place to take chances and try to win big, which is not like them at all. I understand what your friend went through. When I bet, I always do things the same way. Seeing how the thrill of the game can bring out different sides of people is interesting. This makes the experience unique for each person.

When they feel pleasure, they will be different from what we see in normal situations. That is normal because a person's attitude and emotions will change so that something different emerges from him. But if they choose to use gambling as a place to make money, they should think about the risks. They will not find the pleasure they found before because their goals have changed. And that will only make our egos change to become even more eager to get a big win. Those who do it will only feel that it is a unique experience that they are getting even though their ego has changed from its normal state. We must be able to avoid this because it can trigger us to forget to be careful when gambling and can make us lose more money without us realizing it.

I don't think this is funny as it is a mixed behaviour. If you don't do a thing in real life but doing otherwise in gambling, that will certainly not be good and it could easily bring out the irresponsibility in that person. What the guy is doing is reckless and if he continues that way, it can't never have that happy ending, which is why it is good to be careful even from the beginning. Some people have their near-perfect behaviour, and some can even help you to plan your life and you will hardly see a fault in their doings and the way they handle matters wisely. But that does not mean they are without faults too, they are humans too. They might have their devil one way or the other, and it is good when it does not involve money, but in the presence of money, another issue might arise.

To you, the person might be okay, but he is not, the psychology that is attached to money is different from the one that is attached to behaviour without money. All that matters is for someone to be cautious no matter how good you think you are, and whether it is in gambling or not and maybe other things where money is also involved or not, we must not be egoistic, we must not let ourselves to be affected or being driven without a control. If money is being made, that is a different ballgame, but when money is being lost regularly, C'mon, it is bad. No one is perfect and motivation might creep in when we least expect it, which is what might cause some people to believe they can do it better again but will keep on wasting money. There is nothing better than discipline and being neutral in gambling, and when you have a good plan and budget, it makes it better.

I dont see any irresponsibility thing when everything is really just that normal reaction for a human being to have specially that we do lose money and we do know that no one does really like on losing money.

This is why it would really be normal that even on how thrift and conservative you are when it comes to behavior and overall, it cant really be just that avoided that you would really be having those reacitons yet we are really just that humans. I dont see something bad if you would really be having those kind of switch up when it comes to posture and overall behavior on the time that we do lost money.
Just like i have said that no one really likes on losing money so reactions like this are normal and it isnt shocking.

Why would really be that to be an issue on something like this? People do have emotions and losing money is never been that giving that good feeling.

Everyone has their alter ego or another personality when we do our thing. If it's about gambling, I am sure that most of us changes our ways and attitude towards the bets we make. And for investing, many are also aggressive and doesn't listen to anybody because no one is better than ourselves. I don't have an alter ego when I gamble and I typically enjoy whatever happens to my bets and that's simple like I am enjoying every single bet I make.

Ego is of course an integral part of every human being. That is of course inborn within each one of us, but that doesn't refer to an alter ego in gambling. That alter ego in gambling is not a basic human characteristic. Not everybody has that gambling alter ego in which they are thrifty in some other things but are very extravagant in gambling. I myself have an ego but I don't spend minimally in other things but a high roller inside casinos.

Things like this can happen because people have different preferences, not everyone likes branded goods even though they have the ability to own them and also not all gamblers like to bet large amounts even though they have the ability to do so. It could also be because they prefer to make the games longer rather than increase the risk to get more.
However, in my opinion, if there is a gambler who in real life looks safer but in gambling actually prefers risk because he sees that taking risks in everyday life does not give him the opportunity to get a lot of profit quickly, but in gambling there is a chance to get it, even though it is not something that is guaranteed to be obtained, and I am the same person in everyday life and in gambling, always making considerations and occasionally making big bets, but that is money from gambling profits, not from deposited capital, so it could be said that I am not someone who likes to take risks and if I do, it is because previous results have been profitable.

[Crypt0Gore]

We all have that alter ego, some knows how to control and some don't know how, but for me I strongly believe that gambling is dangerous, the only way to be ahead of gambling emotion and other problems is to avoid risking too much on gambling.

Avoid having the mindset that gambling will give you things that your jobs or investment should, I know the dangers awaiting me when I am gambling, this is why I am never going to fall at the mercy of gambling, I don't expect much from this..

I prefer working very hard and saving up money and also investing my money, gambling is just something I do for fun and only when I missed it, with very small amount of money, the expectations that people have in gambling is what get them wrecked.

Many people have an activity in which they can let go and enjoy themselves to their fullest, where I live the most common place where this happens is a bar, in which people that you can see at your place of work be incredibly professional all the time, seem to transform and become someone else when they drink, but this is not so much a transformation as it is simply those people showing you who they really are and what it is what they truly enjoy.

If you are under in the influence of;

1. Alcohol
2. Drugs
3. Depression/Anger/Anxiety
4. Family problems or any other

Then there's no such thing about those formal people not to show off their real selves excluding on Drugs on which we know that this is the most severe thing
that could affect peoples mind and could do such things which a normal thinking people wouldnt be able to do so.
Alter ego? Its normal since we are just humans but as long you arent that affecting someone then it should really be just fine
but if other then it would be an another story.

How about you Are you gambling in a way that is very different from your true personality,

I think when he gambles, his true personality is revealed, because only when doing things directly related to life or money can he reveal his hidden personality. Sometimes everyday life forces him to create a cover and not live up to his personality, and he is satisfied with his personality when playing because no one is looking at or judging him. In everyday life, sometimes I also have some different personalities which depend on different situations.
Mostly I have to live for my family, so when it comes to spending or investing where my wife knows, so I have to be very careful and cannot take risks. But when I gamble, or invest in crypto (this is money that my wife and family don't know about), I can feel comfortable taking risks, because if I lose, at least it won't affect to my wife and family. I think many of us also have different parts of our personalities where we play things that are not looked at or judged by others.

First, when reading your post I wanted to argue, but then you said it yourself, you do have "some different personalities", and one of them is revealed when you are gambling. It's a normal thing. I'm like that too most of the time. If I was behaving always like when I'm gambling, my life would turn into hell. All of us need an alter ego for doing various things, gambling included.

A simile explaining the situation indeed. Gambling does bring in a rush of emotions and thus a number of neurohormonal changes in the body. This leads to a primal state of the body to reawaken which has been kept in control by years of civilization. It should be kept in control though, because the bad effect is that the casino is taking the control over you if you lose yourself in such manner.

It does not happen to everyone but it happens to many and not just in gambling, but in games involving a lot of emotional flow, these things are not uncommon.
