Do you feel excited while gambling

[klidex]

It's normal to feel frustrated, especially when you have lose streak while playing. Remember that outcomes can be unpredictable, there are times that you'll win or you'll lose. It's important to set budget and limits when playing. Also do not forget to take breaks to manage your feelings and emotions. Prioritize your well-being and remember that gambling should be about entertainment and enjoyment.

Taking breaks during a gambling session? Hmm I think I never experienced it, but I think that is because my capital are always small and it wouldn't take a long time for me to use them all if I'm unlucky but if I'm lucky and I'm profiting, I will only stop and withdraw all my balance. This is only the time when I can take a break.

I think that taking a break is not mainly about what you said or for managing our feelings and emotions but it's about doing other things like going to the bathroom, trying to eat a food, and so on... Managing our feelings and emotions are only necessary when we think we are starting to get depressed, greedy, etc... in gambling and we do it outside our gambling time for quite a long time if possible, so that we are sure that we have now fully recovered.

If you only use a small amount of money and it doesn't last long then you don't need to rest, but perhaps what our friend @seacoincollector means is that when someone gambles for a long period of time and experiences consecutive losses then someone must immediately stop and rest because If you continue, you will experience more losses or you could go bankrupt. There are some people who think that if they continue their gambling sessions even though they are losing, maybe over time they will be able to recover the money they have lost, but they are not aware that gambling is starting to get into their minds, making it increasingly uncontrollable and ending in continuous defeat.

In fact, in my opinion, taking a break is not only about going to the bathroom, eating etc. but also about resting our minds from the negative side of gambling and being able to relax ourselves from emotional feelings. Stopping your gambling for a while will lead you to wiser thoughts if you are calm. You can also be responsible in gambling and not be filled with feelings of regret due to losing because it has become part of gambling. This will certainly make your gambling more enjoyable.

You can also be responsible in gambling and not be filled with feelings of regret due to losing because it has become part of gambling. This will certainly make your gambling more enjoyable.

It is true that if we have experienced a series of defeats then we should stop and rest to calm our minds, which if we continue it will also trigger our emotions which can make everything get out of control, which will most likely happen when we can't stop. in gambling there are big losses such as losing large amounts of money or going bankrupt as you said. this triggers big problems that can destroy our lives, so as much as possible we must be able to control ourselves well, have clear thinking and have limits in gambling which is important, because to avoid and prevent big losses it depends on us, if we can control everything well then it is likely that no major losses will occur. Now that there are so many cases of big losses, it means that there are still many gamblers who are not smart and clever in their gambling, they tend to only think about winning while not paying attention to their fate. Even though we should be able to avoid problems that have occurred in many cases, I also think that with the many cases about the bad effects of gambling, we can use it as a lesson for ourselves so that we don't gamble excessively, which is not a good thing.

That's true, indeed we can take breaks that really calm our minds, such as meditation or other things that we think are the best things to calm the mind. Taking a break from gambling is a must because it calms your thoughts, which if you don't take a break will have fatal consequences.

This is why it is called gambling but even though some attempts to cheat it, there are still no guarantees that they can get successful as I already saw who get caught out. I think that exerting more effort might increase our chances, especially if the game is not luck-based but we should not only expect or hope too much, so that our mood are still going to be fine.

Not every individual can cheat when gambling and cheating isn't fun, gambling is meant to be fun and entertaining that you don't know how the game is going to result therefore you'll be over excited when you win. If you cheat you'll already know what they results is going to be like therefore you won't be excited when the game ends and you win. Some cheaters spend money to buy the cheats therefore when they win their profits isn't gotten fully as they have already spent to cheat.

Feeling excited is a regular feeling for all gamblers when they win, before winning they would have lost so much money therefore winning is a relief and this is the reason we get excited, also the money won can be used for things that'll make us more excited. Gamblers shouldn't be advice to stop being excited as they don't know when next they'll have that feeling of excitement again as winning isn't stable.

Gambling has absolutely no element of certainty whatsoever that can guarantee you a win at the end of the session, it will never be known unless you have completed the game which means that your excessive actions with the aim of getting a big win will actually only make you feel more disappointed, that's for sure, because you put excessive hopes in a place that has absolutely no certainty. On the other hand it seems that your statement is reversed my friend, there is absolutely no pleasure in the situation of addiction, and you have also said above that they will only suffer a lot of problems as a result of wrong gambling, there is no pleasure at all in the defeat that dominates.

What you say is true, victory in gambling cannot be guaranteed even though we have tried to pursue it and if we still want to pursue victory until the end of the game session then all we have to do is regret the wrong actions we have taken.
Yes, someone who is addicted at the start of the game will feel pleasure if he can gamble continuously, but in the end he will feel that this pleasure will be the beginning of destruction in his life because he has lost a lot. money due to gambling without good control.

How can such a player have self-control if all his life he has been a careless, inaccurate and slightly lazy person who, in general, having studied at school, does not really know what he will do and where to work.  In my opinion, it is precicsely these people who make gamblers who can lose all their money and even from the family budget.  I don’t argue that there are focused and very enthusiastic people with enormous self-control and a strong will to win.  For example, these are many, even almost all, athletes at the Olympic Games.  But in the general mass of people, there are very few such purposeful people. 
But basically, there is just such something in the behavior of most people and their actions, actions and personal decisions that, like jelly, fluctuates from side to side.  Including when they play and lose gambling.

It is true that if someone still has little or no complete knowledge about actual gambling, they will make many mistakes or carelessness in every gambling game session they play. And this will encourage someone to become a gambling addict and yes there must be something or a reason for them to behave and act as they please, for example with the motivation of wanting to win a gambling session so they bet a lot because they are confident. they can win.

I think that this is a state of naive belief that exactly half the time a gambling player will win and he will be lucky because the money won during the period of luck will be much more than lost, this period passes as the given player gains experience in  gambling.  And for most players who start playing a lot and often, this period is not so long.  Realizing that it is a pleasure to gamble and simply pay for the pleasure received is a much more reasonable form of player behavior.  And accordingly his individual perception of the game process.
 I think that all normal players should think this way and, accordingly, should not feel too sorry for the money they lost.

[swogerino]

I feel only in the beginning of any session as the exitement is what keeps us coming back yet it can also disappear lightning fast when we are playing and we happen to hit a very bad session since early into the session there is nothing left of being excited when gambling.What I have noticed is that the RTP of most games is changed in any reputable casino and I have absolutely 0 doubts about it that is why I shifted my focus to sport gambling only.

[zuzie]

You're right though there are some person who feel excited while gambling, regardless to there loses yet they still feel excited,reason been that they know gambling itself is just part of fun. they are just playing for fun,and also for intertainment, they don't expect wining except when luck is on there side that is when they can win.but there are some person who bet more often hoping for luck to always be on there side everytime they gamble, and this set of people doesn't feel excited when gambling,because they intend to be wining whenever they gamble.

Maybe he has the enthusiasm to gamble because he has felt the pleasure of winning once or twice, then he is very enthusiastic about gambling even though he often loses there. and what you say is true or maybe he feels comfortable with all the gambling games he plays so he becomes addicted and then he forgets that gambling is very high risk and what he thinks is fun and enjoyable.

[GideonGono]

Yes I do feel excited when gambling, that is one of the reason why I like to gamble.
The excitement and thrill while playing, I could only feel it if money is involve in a game.
The feeling that I could earn or lose my money by the result of my game, I thought that all gamblers feel this way when gambling , but I guess I was wrong I talked to some of close friends and family about it, and some of them feel the same way while other are just calm while gambling like it is just a normal game for them.

Self-proclaimed experts, most, are clowns as you mentioned, because they don't know the foundation of gambling in the first instance. Any player that shows up to claim his strategies would work for me, is a red flag. And doesn't sound like one, only newbies and naive gamblers would consider calling such people experts because they trust their long-aged winnings stories, which doesn't matter in the gambling niche. Experts, genuine, focus mainly on money and risk management, then fun gambling. They know, it's rare to beat the housing edge, and encourage gamblers to enjoy the process and play for fun, instead of waiting for a big win, which can derail the joy of the game.

people who claim to be experts are usually clowns who want to gain popularity and money from novice gamblers. they just tell their experiences of how they can win gambling with certain methods and create paid groups so that people can gain knowledge from these methods to win their gambling. but without them realizing it, they are only fooling themselves, because after all the house always has a higher chance of winning than the players. and that is the fact on the ground.

so instead of trusting self-proclaimed experts and wasting money on them, it is better for gamblers to learn on their own and develop their skills, so that they can gamble and win with their own analysis.

Excited seems a little overstated for how I feel while gambling, but I do enjoy it. I would describe it more as being entertained. I’ve never hit something crazy though. If I hit a win for a couple hundred thousand dollars I’m sure I would be excited, but with my small gambling amounts I’m usually just looking for mild entertainment.

Yeah same here but I only place small bets though I am a bit excited with the results that sometimes comes with adrenaline rush most especially if I bet more than my limits that freaken me out I don't know why. That is why I don't like abusing my bets like being greedy because I know how it feels when losing and winning as it might be intense. It's really fun it's like riding a rollercoaster while waiting for results.

There are also some times when you could end up with a situation where you just take a break for a longer term. Like think of it as someone like you, who has small capital, and then gambles a bit, loses it and just takes a break for a week before they come back and gamble again. That would be taking a break as well, sure it is not a few hours break, but it's still a break.

I personally did both, I have gambled and stopped for a few hours to collect my thoughts and then came back, but also I have gambled and gave a week, or even month break before ı came back as well. Both work wonders, each time I did it, I have become a better gambler, not just about the results but also about the feelings, felt much better each time I did it.

From my little activeness over here in the forum and my involvement in gambling I have been seeing some changes in me and it's gradually beginning not to please me anymore I don't know If I will say I am becoming too emotional with my funds but sometimes it's very painful to place a bet for about 2 to 5 consecutive times no winning and this is what is beginning to me make feels sad. I know is a game of luck but sometimes whatever we do and not feels happy we should try to quit it.

I just have to bring this to know the category of people who belong to this sets that always feels bad or are emotionally touched due to their games has been constantly bursting without winning. I don't know how to channel it but at least gambler should be happy most times i will noticed that only 1 games do take me away from winning and most times there will be option to cash out I will have the full confident that all will be successfully played without knowing games change even at dying minutes.

Having those kind of reactions is really just that normal.Why? We are just humans on which it would really be just that normal that we do have those kind of reactions because losing money is never been that good thing.

Even on how hard we do tell into ourselves that we are just playing for fun but on the time that you would be losing on consecutive manner then this is where emotions would really be usually kicking in.
You wont really be that making yourself be able to avoid not to have those kind of angry and disappointment gestures specially when you are losing. This is why if you do find out that
gambling is something that stressful for you rather than on being entertaining then it would be better that you should be having some break.

Dont force out yourself on dealing with it if you do have those kind of impulsive approach because you wont know that because of that extreme disappointment
it would really be leading up into that kind of revenge gambling on which we do know that it isnt really that good on having this way.

[southerngentuk]

Gambling presents a unique challenge, balancing the allure of potential gain with the inherent risk of loss. While it's true that any discretionary spending involves some level of potential regret, gambling differs due to its uncertain and potentially significant financial consequences.

While skill can influence outcomes in certain games like poker or blackjack, a significant element of chance remains present, particularly in games like slots or roulette. This inherent dependence on luck distinguishes gambling from other leisure activities, where the primary focus is enjoyment rather than potential financial gain.

Maintaining a neutral emotional state during gambling is often cited as an ideal approach. However, completely eliminating emotions might be unrealistic and potentially counterproductive. Humans are inherently emotional creatures, and acknowledging these emotions can be beneficial for making informed decisions. The key lies in managing these emotions effectively to avoid impulsive choices that could exacerbate losses.

But sometimes there are some gamblers who are excited not because of the excitement but the intention and hope along with the feeling of getting a big win and they are typical gamblers who are too serious in pursuing victory, on the other hand no matter whether you come with the excitement to get a lot of fun or victory in the end still everything will look and feel annoying when the situation changes as fast as lightning as you said where the spin goes so bad that it makes the session very short and ends with a loss, This is a situation that is not easily accepted by gamblers who have the intention of earning in gambling, they are like losers who want to win but are not prepared for the fact of losing and the idea of "chasing the win" to restore something that has been lost is the action they usually choose.

With what I see from your statement it seems like you are one of those gamblers who often fixate on the RTP machine, or simply you always look at the RTP percentage before you bet and honestly at first I was the same as you which when I was just getting to know gambling like slot machines I always looked at the RTP first to see which games were good. but sometimes over time I feel like I'm getting better, But sometimes over time I feel that there is a lot that does not match the RTP, meaning that when the RTP is a high percentage but when I play the game the spin looks very bad and that means not all RTPs match the game provided, this is according to my personal experience.

However, the game is meant to be fun, but the funds are no longer interesting to the player. As the wins won't show up all the time. Players also have unique moods that leads to such behavior. It could be as a result of a delay in winning again. Recently noticed that gamblers who are one-time big winners crown themselves experts, hence trying to coach others around them on gambling, but if they fail to win again, the excitement can disappear. Because they wouldn't feel like experts anymore, with their money going all back to the house. 

I agree, moods do change and sometimes we're happy to win with any amount but there are times that it's totally disappointing. And it becomes a domino effect when we lose one time, it's going to be the entire day that we have. As for the gamblers that have won and treats themselves as experts, you know it's the same with the market that when the bull run comes, too many experts comes out everywhere proclaiming that they're the best but they're all clowns.

Self-proclaimed experts, most, are clowns as you mentioned, because they don't know the foundation of gambling in the first instance. Any player that shows up to claim his strategies would work for me, is a red flag.

They know, it's rare to beat the housing edge, and encourage gamblers to enjoy the process and play for fun, instead of waiting for a big win, which can derail the joy of the game.

The only time I am excited is when I am making profits. I don't have any good reasons for me to be excited when I have not seen the result of the bet I played. Maybe there are people that there case might embe different from my but I choose not to be disturbed. I am more interested in making profits and good my way. I don't gamble often and I am happy with that so I can always choose a time when I could gamble and make something better from gambling. When I get the opposite of what I am looking for, I choose to relax and have a good time than going back to gamble

It's really fun it's like riding a rollercoaster while waiting for results.

That's a good approach to gambling and I would probably advise you to continue to maintain that approach to your gambling, treating gambling in moderation such as by only putting small amounts along with putting limits on involvement is the best approach that leads to many preventive benefits so that we avoid many bad possibilities or at least so that the amount we lose is not too large. And you've already said that you've felt what it's like to end a session with a loss, it sucks and most gamblers find it hard to ignore their emotions when they're in that situation.

We know that by putting a large amount into gambling the winnings are bound to be large too, but that's not the point, the problem is that it's not easy to be that lucky in gambling and most of what happens is ending the session with a loss, so it's better to choose to treat gambling according to what you can afford, whether it's in terms of putting a budget amount and also limiting the time of involvement, because the logic is that if you are lucky then you will also win even if the winnings are not too large but it's a decent win.

 It makes me wonder whether you gamble for a career or just for fun because many people gamble without any real purpose or experience, using it only as a way to pass the time or relieve stress.

I’ve seen a friend who used just a couple of coins to gamble for the sake of it, not caring whether they win or lose.

For some people, it’s not just about money. Whether they succeed or not doesn’t matter; what matters is using money to empower young people. There are many activities involving young people and children, and they are always involved because they are the most vulnerablE

[STT]

I try not to feel too excited if that makes sense, I think it only helps lose control of your position and any feeling in the game.   When you over step the mark you are going to get hit type of thing, maybe its the oppisite for some people and they perform better with hype.  Energy levels help some feel more involved, focuses their attention and in turn they will do better.   I try to stay calm but also with enough focus to perform as I need to in that game, if I over focus I think I tend to beat myself first and lose the game unfortunately over thinking it; everyone has to play it the best they know how.

I know is a game of luck but sometimes whatever we do and not feels happy we should try to quit it..

It depends on the game I'm playing with, most likely I'm into sports gambling so it gives me excitement every time I play and of course the thrill if the team I put a bet on manages to win or not, it's gambling not all the time we are winning those bets. If you didnt feel too much excitement anymore and feel not well in playing gambling I guess make yourself ask if you are going to play or not those times you didnt make a good decision in playing because you are not in the mood. Emotions affect gambling decisions.

I just have to bring this to know the category of people who belong to this sets that always feels bad or are emotionally touched due to their games has been constantly bursting without winning. I don't know how to channel it but at least gambler should be happy most times i will noticed that only 1 games do take me away from winning and most times there will be option to cash out I will have the full confident that all will be successfully played without knowing games change even at dying minutes.

Sometimes single win can change everything, but its a different story if you meet consecutive losses after those wins, if those winnings cater for all of your backlog losses, you can call for a day and try again your luck next you play gambling.

For some while I have tried to call myself to order and i have not been that emotional anymore, despite someone gambling and no winning has come for the moment doesn't mean will should be sad even though we are feeling so we should try to gamble what we think can be riskable or easily lose them without much weighing us down.
I think this also affects us while gambling by the time we places much priority to game thinking it would results the way we think but at the later ends results to zero anyone who is involved must feels so sad.

I think that this is a state of naive belief that exactly half the time a gambling player will win and he will be lucky because the money won during the period of luck will be much more than lost, this period passes as the given player gains experience in  gambling.  And for most players who start playing a lot and often, this period is not so long.  Realizing that it is a pleasure to gamble and simply pay for the pleasure received is a much more reasonable form of player behavior.  And accordingly his individual perception of the game process.
I think that all normal players should think this way and, accordingly, should not feel too sorry for the money they lost.

I agree with you. Those who gamble to earn more money are wasting their time. They think luck can give them bigger money than the losses they have experienced. This is the same as a thread here that says there is someone who gambles every day because they don't want to miss a lucky day. I think it's all naive thinking about how gambling should be played. It's just a game and you pay to play. If you are lucky you will get a return but that is just a bonus. You can consider the money you have spent to enjoy the game, not expect a return.

Thinking about gambling as a sort of entertainment, rather than an investment, is a more healthier approach. This reduces your chances of falling victim to gambling addiction. You're also less likely to spend money you can't afford to lose, and you'll be able to relax and enjoy the game without worrying about a big payout.
The concept of responsible gambling is that you should treat gambling as a form of entertainment and only gamble with money you can afford to lose. This entails establishing limitations for oneself, both in terms of money spent and time spent gambling. You should also make sure that you're not gambling to escape from problems or negative emotions, and that you're not letting gambling interfere with your relationships or responsibilities.
