Do you feel excited while gambling

[wxa7115]

Sure, gambling can be exciting for a lot of folks. Including me. The chance of winning gives a rush. But we always gotta think - is the fun worth the harm it can cause? Gambling ain't a game like football with cheering crowds and it can hurt people badly, financially and psychologically. If you are not ready for that, you can always find safer ways to get your joy that don't put everything at stake.

This explains why only a select few people are able to control their emotions when they bet. While the thrill of gambling might be seductive, it's important to recognize the possible risks involved and take precautions to bet sensibly. In other words, gambling can result in financial losses similar to what the OP has experienced, and he may be disappointed if he simply bets without winning. Because of the stress of losing money and the inability to control our gambling impulses, it can also have an adverse effect on our mental health. For this reason, I believe that protecting our mental health should come first when it comes to gambling.

Most people can enjoy things that could harm them if done in excess without a problem, it is just that the cases of the people that cannot do it are so prominent and impossible to ignore, that it may seem as if this could happen to anyone.

But this is not really true, most of those that become addicted and suffered negative consequences had a predisposition to it already, so as long as you do not have it then you should be able to gamble without suffering any major setback.

Gamblers who have won high amount of money in the past will one day, not care about smaller wins, and it's one purpose that makes them throw all they've won back to the casino, including their earned money from different businesses.

Yeah, it's easier to lose that money back to the casino because the amount isn't satisfying. And our satisfaction is also growing and that's why when we've won small amounts, that's not going to give us the encouragement to keep that money but instead we just gamble it back and we wouldn't care if it will lose again. Going to that point of losing including the hard earned money, that person is doing it the wrong way. Don't touch other money that are not dedicated to gambling because that will be the fall down of his entire empire together with his businesses.

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.

If someone engages in excessive gambling activities, of course over time he will feel uncomfortable because excessive activity is not in accordance with our abilities and the results will not be satisfactory for us but will be a matter of regret.
Yes, gamblers who are addicted will certainly feel satisfied because just by gambling they get pleasure even though they often end up losing, but for gamblers who are not yet addicted, this is a problem for them.

Basically everything that is done in excess will always be bad, or the meaning will usually always produce bad results and this applies to everything and not just in gambling, but if you take it and apply it to gambling activities then of course as you say that over time anyone will feel uncomfortable, this is gambling which is an activity that only provides "possibilities" and nothing more than that, and obviously it is very natural if in the end there are some results at the end of the session that are not what you expected.

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.

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.

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.

I think it's very common for a new gambler to feel increased joy while gambling.
It first takes a little getting used to, but afterwards it's like your body might be asking for a fix.

If you feel like it's hard to control impulses, it might be a good idea to go off the site for a while. There's certainly no need to gamble every day. And if you do gamble without control or a budget preset then you might also run in financial trouble. Gambling really is enjoyable but should be limited.

Every gambler will feel the excitement of the games, and that is a given fact. Try sitting on any of these luck-based games like hi-lo, dice, roulette and you will understand that sometimes you don't want to get up and just continue playing. Either you are enjoying or just want to recover your losses. One should contain himself while playing so you won't go to the extent of using your money for your bills and other important things. Without discipline, it is very easy to go down the rabbit hole of gambling.

Excitement is normal during gambling because at that time everyone feels the same thing whether he will win or lose.  I feel excited myself. many people use gambling for fun and many for income, but no matter what purpose they use it, there is excitement in everyone. and from this excitement comes fun. But when the result of gambling after all the excitement is win then there is a lot of joy.  And loss feels a bit bad, but those who gamble for income become emotional

[redsun114]

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.

[Peanutswar]

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..

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.

Excitement is normal during gambling because at that time everyone feels the same thing whether he will win or lose.  I feel excited myself. many people use gambling for fun and many for income, but no matter what purpose they use it, there is excitement in everyone. and from this excitement comes fun. But when the result of gambling after all the excitement is win then there is a lot of joy.  And loss feels a bit bad, but those who gamble for income become emotional

But when people gets lose their money in gambling, they will not feel excitement and only sadness. That makes them wants to recover their loss and changes their reasons for playing gambling from searching for excitements into recovering their loss and chase the win. We have seen this happens to many gamblers that losing their self-control and causes them losing their money. They don't get excitement because their lose their money and become emotional so they can't enjoy playing gambling. But if we can limits ourselves from playing gambling, we can enjoy the games because we know that we use gambling for fun in our spare time. We will not chase the win as we know that will difficult for us to gets it.

If you lose too often, you will feel bored, of course you will feel sad and not enthusiastic about losing money. Often the initial goal of having fun is lost along with losses experienced, not everyone can control their emotions well. It's true, there are also many people who always hope to win, usually they take risks with money that they planned to use for other needs, but instead they use it for gambling. That's why they always hope for luck and can't accept defeat.

I think the excitement you will really feel when the results at the end of the session match what you expect, and if you are still at the journey stage of running the session then I think what is more likely to happen is maybe some tension, but there is also excitement if you look at gambling as a fun activity and that means that tension along with some pressure will usually be felt more by gamblers who always expect to earn, in the sense that when the game round looks bad enough then that's where the tension will occur because they feel worried about losing.

Yes, I quite agree with what you said that whatever the gambler's goal is, at least they will definitely feel pleasure, but maybe as I said above that a gambler who comes with the intention of earning usually they will feel more tension and pressure than pleasure because they are too serious in putting expectations, while for responsible gamblers who are based on a correct understanding of gambling in my opinion will not feel too much tension and pressure like that because usually they only put the amount they can afford to lose.

Maybe you forgot to add that those who gamble for fun and are happy whether losing or not are those who gamble with the amount of money that they can afford to lose. They don't gamble with all their worth and expecting to win by all means rather they believe in the luck aspect of gambling and as such act accordingly and not to bet hugely to win jackpot. If you gamble with little money that you can afford to lose then your mind will still be at peace like you never lost anything but in the case where you have to empty your bankroll to gamble, you will feel depressed for the moment that you lost. So the amount staked is also contributory to how you feel when you lose.

[Twentyonepaylots]

Sometimes, I also get excited when gambling, especially when I am winning. Like when you are on a roll, that is the time when you are happy because you are seeing good results. But when I am losing, I tend to get angry and feel hopeless. I think that is how gambling works; it is a roller coaster ride, and gambling plays on our emotions. That is how people get addicted to gambling: when they pour their emotions too much into gambling.

For our sake, we should not be pouring out all our emotions, so we'll still be sane. It is very energy-consuming when you are too happy for a moment and then angry and sad after a few seconds. Gambling should be for fun, not to make us stressed.

[Dewi Aries]

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.

You're correct. Gambling is inherently uncertain, and there are no guarantees of winning, regardless of how much money or effort one puts into it. Gamblers need to recognize and accept this reality to avoid disappointment and potential harm. Excessive or compulsive gambling behaviour often stems from a misguided belief that one can control or influence the outcome of games of chance. However, in reality, the outcomes of gambling activities are determined by random chance or probability, and no amount of skill, strategy, or investment can ensure a win.

Placing excessive hopes or expectations on gambling can lead to disappointment, financial loss, and emotional distress when the desired outcomes are not achieved. It's essential for gamblers to approach gambling with a realistic understanding of its inherent risks and limitations, and to gamble responsibly within their means. By acknowledging the uncertainty of gambling and reframing expectations, gamblers can make more informed decisions and avoid the pitfalls of excessive gambling behaviour.

Sure, and this is the reason why we are always advised to keep gambling as a leisure activity with the aim of minimizing your boredom by getting pleasure from your sessions. As I said above that one of the reasons is because gambling is always gray, casinos only provide "possibility of winning" and not "certainty", and this fact makes me always think of suggesting healthy engagement to other gamblers especially some of my friends who are also fellow gamblers, not least because sharing experiences and understanding is a good idea to help each other before it's too late.

I agree with your idea that excessive and impulsive gambling is always based on false beliefs, all this happens because of the hope they put on winning so that indirectly makes them "too sure" that they will be able to win when in fact the fact at the end of the session always slaps them that something they always hoped for did not happen and obviously excessive actions will only make you feel more disappointed. Putting hope and faith in a place that has no certainty is an action that will only make someone end up with addiction, logically when you are too hopeful but the fact is that what you expect does not happen then obviously you will not be able to accept the fact of defeat and this makes a gambler act more aggressively like chasing victory to restore something that has been lost, and this is a situation where someone starts to enter the addiction cycle. The point is that getting your hopes up on gambling can ruin your life in many aspects in the long run, and the mistake I think is that they don't look at gambling from many angles during the introductory stage like when they are beginners, which is usually people like that only look at one side of the "opportunity to multiply" which indirectly overrides the thought of the possibility of intolerable losses.

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.

OP asks if we are excited while gambling, well the answer is definitely yes because it is like a box of chocolate where we don't know if what we can get. Maybe some will get nervous because they risk a huge money, or money that is intended for something more important, but I'm sure the feeling of excitement is still there.

[Slow death]

I believe that people who play porcelain, roulette or other gambling games that depend on luck are the only people who have fun when they are playing or at least feel greater emotion, whether positive or negative when they are playing, I have particularly seen it here in my parents when people are playing slots they start to scream a lot in irritation because they lost, I wonder what they expected, if they know that the chances of winning in slot machines are very low, the guys spend hours putting coins in that machine and the they lose that I watch in shock at the dedication that guys have to spend many hours playing something that they only lose and they still get angry and scream as if they really were going to lose

when in fact they are just losing constantly and even though they are losing every day, the guys don't give up, I wonder how they can be having fun if they are losing every day and after losing they are shouting in the street and creating confusion, which Would that be a way to have fun? Honestly, this concept of fun seems to be altered in gambling games, no one likes to lose, especially no one likes to lose money, so how could a person who lost money say they had fun? Those guys from my country who are playing at the casino every day slot should stop playing or change games, because in slot they just lose

[Accardo]

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. 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.
