stop the unnecessary blame on gambling whenever you get unlucky

[Asuspawer09]

A lot of people have been clamoring about how gambling has ruined their life but same gambling has set some people up for life, just like every other form of investment there must always be a profit or a loss.  And life is so balanced that what works for Mr A might not be the same that works for Mr B. Likewise in gambling,  while some are crying about their loss they are some who are smiling and celebrating their win.
 Gambling has been seen as a very dangerous thing base on some people's point of view here in the forum whereas in reality it has given some people the capital to start what ever business they want to do. My point in this post is that we shouldn’t just paint gambling all black because some people have fail to stick to the discipline of gambling.
 I believe that before one make a decision in life, they should've already weighed the consequences of making the right or wrong choice, then put their fate on luck coupled with their little knowledge concerning what they're about to decide on, so why complain and play the blame game when things go wrong? "Share your thought on how gambling has come through for you if you got any".

I mean in the end, we have nothing to blame on this but ourselves since we are the ones who make the decision, I get your point here where gambling is not really a bad thing to anyone, in my perspective gambling is entertainment and yes for sure it is not something that is totally bad depends on how you're going to gamble, you could totally gamble responsible and moderately and not get any problems or probably even win sometimes. But I guess the problem here is just how people see gamble just like what you have said there are people who win a huge amount on a gamble and change their life here which is for sure not something that you might want to try on a gamble because this surely involves some luck not just something that has some kind of blueprint in order to win. Gambling is for sure not the quick way to get rich, maybe because you could easily get rich on gamble if you are lucky but it might be the other way around if you're not careful, so just dont look at gamble as something that you could use as an income or something where you could earn a huge amount of money easily since it is for sure a double edge sword that could easily destroy your life.

If you already have the money put it on some kind of investment like cryptocurrency for sure, or do a legitimate business that could give you income, we already know how risky gambling is so just dont put your money on it before you regret it, we already witness a lot of people destroy there life on gambling at least dont go all in on gambling, invest on something like real estate, apartments, stocks, cryptocurrency, etc. which will make more sense.

See the sad thing is the moment you start relying on gambling or trusting it to turn around your life in one moment, you already lost. Unlike investing, which is something you'd truly spend time and effort to make it work, gambling is purely about luck. And just by its definition, luck isn't really something you'd want to rely on all the time. While it's understandable that we all want that moment where we can turn our lives around, which is to say, luck, relying on gambling, which is another form of luck, just seems really dumb. it's like relying on luck squared.

Since people fail to realize that, they start thinking that gambling is just like any other opportunity out there which they can blame. Like that bad manager that refused to promote you, the industry you're in just refused to improve, and stuff like that.

There is no point in blaming the games or blaming the casinos. people buy cars and every day we see on TV and in the newspapers saying that there have been many car accidents with many deaths. But even so, every day car manufacturing companies continue to manufacture cars and more people continue to buy cars, because it's not the cars' fault. the blame and the people. The same thing happens with alcoholic beverages, every day we hear in the news that many people are dying in accidents because they were under the influence of alcohol, but no government has banned beer and wine factories. on the contrary, presidents of countries have been seen celebrating with wine. That's because it's the people's fault, not the wines.

people should be honest with themselves, when they cannot achieve something, then they should first look for information and practice and then execute that thing. By this I mean that those people who enter casinos without having knowledge about games and do not know that games are not a guaranteed source of income, must first study the games and the casino before creating an account. because this way they will avoid creating high expectations when they enter the casino, they will know that they will not obtain constant profits, and that the only thing they will obtain will be fun

Everyone makes a choice when they first sign up to a gambling site, they either know that they will lose their money eventually or they have a plan to make what little they can and run away with it. If you play the game properly and happen to live in places where it's available, there are a whole host of opportunities to make money with "matched betting" and welcome bonuses. If you have the discipline to unlock this free cash, you can leave the gambling scene a winner and never return. Optionally, there are many free games out there and you can play them as long as the casino doesn't ban your account. People who talk about being unlucky, are the ones who didn't do research and figure out that the mathematics is stacked against them ever winning.

People need to understand that gambling is considered as game of luck. It’s not a game of skill. I mean you can’t just enhance your skill in order to win the games. If your luck is not good, then you can’t win the games. No matter what strategy you apply or how you play. Yes the blaming is done in order to calm down the brain for losses. In gambling in order to win the games, you just need a good luck. That’s all.

It depends. In poker, sports betting and horse racing you can. In the rest of casino games it is not, but many problems would be avoided if people understood in depth concepts such as the House Edge. One would like to think that a solution would be that concepts like that and others would be taught in high school, but if basic financial training is not taught, there is no way that curricula with chapters with mathematics applied to gambling will be implemented.

This is all caused by someone's lust which is very big in themselves when playing gambling, they often forget about the finances they have and in addition the chance of winning at gambling is not commensurate with the losses they achieve, that is where someone's mistake lies in  gambling on all things that can make them get money instantly.  and in the end they forget that it is a bad thing that will happen to their personal economy in the future, it is difficult to get out if someone feels comfortable when playing gambling.

It is unfortunately in our nature to find excuses for our actions, when something goes wrong. The thing with gambling is that too many people do not understand the basic concept that a higher percentage of people have to lose for a small percentage of people to win.

They do not understand things like RTP / Variance / house edge and how things like the RNG and client/server seed are working.

So people make up things, based on their own lack of understanding to shift the blame for their lack of knowledge.

[3kpk3]

Do you really think people will magically stop blaming gambling whenever they lose? Anyone who thinks like that are way too naive and gullible since people always find something/someone to try and blame for their losses.

They try to reduce their own guilt by diverting the blame towards something/someone which is basic human nature.

[michellee]

If people scream about how gambling is destroying them, it is their own fault. They should introspect themselves on how they use gambling. Gambling will not ruin their lives if they can use gambling as intended.

They forget that gambling is just entertainment and there is no need to gamble too often or too seriously. This prevents more losses so they do not experience losing their money. If they can have self-control and strict discipline, they will not experience many losses. They can also use gambling as a means to have fun.

If they can use gambling well, they can get pleasure from gambling, especially if they can gamble moderately and not use gambling as a way to make money.

Only dumb people would blame the casino for what they have experience especially if its negative on their side. If they could just able to think accurately on what actions they have done for sure they will be curious to know the risky action they made also those bad decisions they drop. They also get ashame for blaming the casino for encountering a bad luck and provably they could learn a lot of lesson for those mistakes.

Gambling will be dangerous if only the person conducting the activity doesn't have good discipline and expecting some passive from it since usually they are the one will face a harsh result then provably encounter such huge lose that they can't imagine. After that those addiction will follow that's why we need to be aware on the risk and think about good thing about gambling and also have fun rather than thinking always on the profit they can possibly earn there.

Like what I have read about various gamblers whose lives have been ruined because gambling is something for me, if I look at it from another angle, it seems that it is not, because if that is true, then all the gamblers who are playing games now have ruined all their lives, right?

There are others whose lives have improved because of gambling, but there are also others who have ruined themselves and their lives. Other gamblers prospered or became rich because of gambling, and also because of gambling, they became poor again.

You are coming up with the assumption that the amount of people, who lost from gambling is equal to the amount of people, who won from gambling. This is too far away from the truth. The amount of gambling addicts, who ruined their lives is way bigger than the people, who profited from gambling. In fact, I don't know about anyone, who changed his life for good because of a big win from a casino.
I agree that the blame game is pointless, but don't try to paint a picture, that isn't real. The gambling industry isn't as balanced as life in general. There is a reason why "the casino always wins". If the amount of winners was equal to the amount of losers, the gambling industry wouldn't be so profitable.

Well, gambling have not come through for me in any way, possibly because I am not that regular, but then, I still love gambling and do encourage any body interested to give it a try as long as they stick to the rules, no body knows where their blessing and financial breakthrough will come from.

I used to be one of those people that hated gambling and gamblers alike, because the society I lived in made me believe that gambling is an irresponsible thing to do, and that only irresponsible people gamble.
So, I myself being someone who was raised with moral values, I hated anything that is irresponsible, and gambling, as well as gamblers happened to be one of those, I never had anything to do with gamblers, until I meet someone who changed everything, and today, gambling have become something I love engaging in from time to time.

One thing I normally say on this forum is that, those who are castigating gambling, and discouraging people from engaging in it, and yet, wearing signature that belong to a gambling casino, are nothing but confused beings.

[elevates]

When anyone messes up in thier lives they would need someone or something to blame upon. This called denial to believe that they did wrong. I have rarely seen anyone accepting that the fault lies within. I don't agree that gambling should be blamed for the loss. At the same time I don't agree that some people have made fortune through gambling. I would say a handful of few have made it big whereas a large group has lost everything. I also don't agree that gambling itself is a wrong activity as in our life we always gamble in various stages. Getting addicted to gambling can ruin anyone and those blaming gambling are the one who have ruined themselves due to addiction.

[bitterguy28]

I kept seeing or hearing people or gamblers that made themselves stupid for blaming gambling , blaming other people or even blaming something because of their own mistakes.

Gambling is one thing that we all agreed to play and lose, we are not even forced to bet so how much are we stupid blaming people?

But thanks for this reminder mate and let this be the peoples marking to not blaming others for their losses.

Well, you have a point. However we know majority of gamblers are just losing their money than winning because of the house edge. There might be gamblers who are fortunate to hit a jackpot but we know there's only few. It's not similar to other investment opportunities (though there's also a risk) that you can influence the outcome to gain profit.

Because in gambling you have to accept the fact that losing is inevitable. That being said, if you can't stand losing your money then don't gamble, simple as that. Luck is a major factor to win in gambling so keep that in mind before blaming gambling (or anyone who attracted you to play) just because you lose your money.

Gambling is for mature minds and not for irresponsible people. I think this is the reason why there is a minimum age limit people should attain before they are allowed to gamble. An understanding that gambling is unpredictable will help people understand that they might win today and lose the next time they bet. Most people who lament about their loss are people who gamble more than they can afford to lose.

Gamble is not dangerous it is simply risky. You risk your money to get fun and more money. This is a forum and you cannot stop people from sharing their gambling experience. Anyway anybody who concludes that gambling is bad is ignorant because it has so many benefits if handled responsibly. If one can control his gambling activities, such a person will find it interesting.

I believe that before one make a decision in life, they should've already weighed the consequences of making the right or wrong choice, then put their fate on luck coupled with their little knowledge concerning what they're about to decide on, so why complain and play the blame game when things go wrong? "Share your thought on how gambling has come through for you if you got any".

Gamble for me is a game that gives me fun as I also expect to make some profit. It has never had any negative consequences on my finances, health, family relationships, and other areas of my life. I try as much as possible to gamble within my means and this is done by following strictly my gambling plan.

there is a difference between Addicted gamblers and just a Normal gamblers mate, and those that you are
mentioning who have ruined their life are Addicted one and not like us who are just normal or occasional gamblers only.

There are others whose lives have improved because of gambling, but there are also others who have ruined themselves and their lives. Other gamblers prospered or became rich because of gambling, and also because of gambling, they became poor again.

but actually the topic is for those who are blaming everything because of what had happened to their life
but the truth is? this is about their own mistakes.

[Jawhead999]

People only care with their own selves, that's why when something bad happens on them, they will make a complaint and give excuses to make them get a benefit.

For the casino, the best is ban them even though they're give money to the casino, but still the time spent to take care of them is more valuable than the money they had donated.

For other people, it's the best to avoid them because they can make create unnecessary dramas because they're have narcissist personality disorder.
