When you are not to gamble.

[Yatsan]

Unfortunately you didn't get the right viewers, users in this board already read a lot thread about how to not be a gambling addict, how to cure a gambling addict, signs of gambling addict, how to manage money, how to become a responsible gambler etc.

But there are still a lot addicts out there, take a look with people around you, one of them could be a gambling addict.

But in this forum, gambling addicts are more likely absent. Why would they waste time interacting in this platform if they are being obsessed of actually playing? People here are simply players who wants to discuss about gambling activities and that includes what's good and not in this industry. For sure everyone knows how dangerous it is to allow oneself be too hooked or attached with gambling but why do some people still fall in such situation? Greed and gambling ideologies.

Unfortunately, gambling is often misunderstood as a way to get rich quickly. We all know how fast money moves in this activity. You could earn thousands of bucks in a single game if you're lucky. Problem is being "lucky". No one has control of their luck and fortune and this fact is often being disregarded pushing people to live in this industry.

When to gamble and not? I'd say never gamble if you can't bear with the reality behind gambling. If you are still one of those who has ideologies of how gambling could make you rich then it is better to stay away from it as early as possible. Fact check: If being rich in gambling is an easy thing to achieve, why are many people losing huge amounts of money, properties, or even themselves on their journey? It should be an enough warning to all of us.

To regain back your loses

Gamblers make this serious mistake of chasing after their losses by continuing gambling and instead they keep om , making the condition to get more worse because they cant achieve anything from doing so, instead, its time for us to reset and settle down to look for more alternative means or source of income to earn from and recover from our losses in gambling, then we may now apply the right decision by affording to gamble with the amount of what we think is not much for us to loose at the course of gambling.

One thing most gamblers do not understand is that chasing losses mindset can be incredibly destructive leading to even more losses and capable of landing someone into financial ruin. Some people don't even know when they fall into this trap, they realize it when it's already too late to turn back and I happen to have been one of such persons. It's very important for every gambler to have a great level of self control when gambling so you know when you're gradually falling into the loss chasing trap. Instead take your time to earn income from other sources to recover the losses caused as a result of gambling and not to keep pushing further and further.

[Rabata]

The thing that a gambler needs to focus on before gambling is to control his greed. If a gambler has the ability to control himself in any situation, his chances of losing will be reduced. Gamblers should avoid gambling at certain times. If gambler loses his control in those areas, he will lose. I agree with the points you mentioned. In gambling, if one tries to recover his losses quickly, he will definitely lose that money. And many people see the accumulation of money and they become interested in gambling, I think this is nothing but a foolishness. Because the gambler is not guaranteed to win if he loses there is a possibility of losing the last possession.

Good point you have mention to the op but I want to add one more thing that is add also limit on your wining like when you will do gamble then set a amount if you won that amount on that day you will leave you gamble for that day. I think it is also important to hold the profits because some times when we do gamble we get in to trap of greediness and then they also try again after wining a good amount on gamble and by this at the end of the day they lose all their fund.

[qwertyup23]

You can add these two:

When you win little, do not gamble on that day again. But some gamblers will feel like they should continue to gamble and they will lose at the end of the day.

When you are addicted. Quit gambling for a long time.

I agree with your statement.

A lot of the mishaps that happen in a given gambling activity is when the player gets too greedy after they have incurred a win. They tend to feel that their initial reaction to such win is to test their luck again which can ultimately turn the tables against them. This is what I call the "cycle of gambling" where a person who gambles, regardless of the result, would gamble again. If they lost, they will try to recover such loss; and if they won, they will try to test their luck and to see if they will win.. and so on.

I just hope that people realize that gambling should be approached with careful moderation and extreme care due to its nature. If you really plan on making it as an avenue for extra income, then STOP as soon as you have incurred some profits along the way.

Gambling can be fun and also become a serious problem if not done appropriately. Alot of gambler get themselves into problem because they gamble anyhow and anytime. There are some times you should take a break in gambling so that you won't become an addict or give yourself problem. Time you shouldn't gamble includes:

👉👉when you are in need of money urgently
Some people gamble the most when they are in need of urgent money. They use the little in their account to gamble believe they can double the money in no time through gambling to do what they want to do. This most times go wrong making them to lose the little they should have save for that purpose

👉👉To regain back your loses
Pursuing loses in gambling make you lose more. So it better to have a break when you have lose alot. That period may not be your own lucky time to win. Taking a break can help you to avoid being addicted and also save you from losing more.

👉👉Under pressure or frustration
Gambling under pressure or frustration may make you go beyond your plan. It can also make you to make wrong decision from your bet. So it's better to do away with gambling during this period.

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

From the conclusion, it can be concluded that gambling only needs to be used as a place of entertainment, not a place to make money, because literally entertainment places are for fun, not for making money, except for those who sell games. If you want to make a profit, then you have to be a seller of services or whatever in that place.

Your three points are a cycle that will repeat itself and become a bad gambler so that it will spin in a vicious zone with unclear expectations of where reality is logically going.

It is not only necessary to stop gambling after losing money, but also after winning money. Many people struggle to quit after a win because they want to keep going and strive to win even more. However, this is a hazardous cycle since there is no assurance that they will continue to win, and it is quite easy for them to lose everything they have achieved. Setting a profit cap is an excellent approach to avoid this, since it allows people to enjoy their wins and walk away while still ahead.

The truth is that whenever you have a reason to play gambling to gain money , their are high possibility that you may end up losing.  When their is a reason to play gambling to make money  your mind wont be in the right state because you seriously need money and it will be so bad if eventually the outcome of the game unsuccessful.  Gamblers needs to learn gamble is not a game that you can put your hope on because it is always unpredictable which people need to play with amount they can afford to lose and play without having much expectation from it. Expecting much from gambling is what makes people to be down and get emotional when they lose.

[danadc]

Before playing gambling you know already what the risks you should face, not all the time do gamblers win the game, on the first statement, if you don't have money you can call that for a day not all the time you see that making another deposit wins the game, people have a different experience in their gambling journey, once people already experience losses and would like to gain their money back they make a wrong decisions which is going into the second and third statement. Make conscious of your actions unless you don't worry too much about the money it's fine but if you are just a common people who don't have good assets to bring money and just play gambling to hoping win a large amount, you'd better have self-control.

I agree with what you say, because basically I am a person who, when I don't have money to go to the casino, I simply don't go, I'm not interested and I know how to handle that, but there are people who find it hard not to be able to play, If this happens, then there really is a problem in your weight that you cannot control. If this happens, you would have to put things in another aspect just to avoid suffering the consequences of a possible addiction. Addictions are what because it could happen to a person.

My advice is that when you can't play or don't want to play for whatever reason, you have to listen to it, not insist because it will surely be lost. Sometimes we are indisposed, or sometimes we really want to play but we don't have money , and It's better to hold on and not make mistakes, sometimes we lose money in such a bad way that sometimes we Believe that we have no forgiveness for having done so, but it is all about learning.

Yes, that's a good conclusion that you came to, because fun places will usually make us spend money, not the other way around. Maybe the difference is that our fun will increase when we win gambling, I won't be hypocritical about it. Obviously don't make gambling a means to make money because that's not the place. Those who can make money from gambling are the bookmakers and when we are a player then it is impossible.

Many people have misunderstood this, where they think to make more money. Even when they win, it is actually their own money that they have spent during their gambling, even in my opinion the amount is not worth what they spend.

You are also right that this is a repetitive cycle that gamblers have, those who are already addicted will find it difficult to leave gambling. as long as they still have money to play with, then they will continue to gamble until they realize that all the money is gone because they continue to gamble endlessly. That's why it's so dangerous when we've been brainwashed by the expectations of gambling.

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

Thank you for the input you have provided and it may be useful to the community, but in reality what you convey in this thread seems to be almost the members of the community who are very aware. except, perhaps for new members or gamblers. from the first point and the last point, we agree with that. even as I said, there is nothing wrong with what you said. we are absolutely fundamental, every risk in gambling is regardless of the type of game or features available. the problem is, in practice it's not as easy as you say. this is precisely where the challenge lies for us gamblers, applying the rules or points as you said in this thread. not infrequently, we as gamblers often find it difficult to stop gambling sessions even though they are no longer enjoyable. I mean, I'm experiencing a losing situation many times. at this point, to end the game so that we don't spend our bankroll again depends on how much self-control we have. how do we have to involve other variables so that we don't end up experiencing defeat which ends up being very detrimental. as you can conclude, gambling should be fun. but to avoid it so that it doesn't become a problem. not only knowing and understanding the points you mentioned.  because, it requires a broad understanding of gambling itself. plus, responsibility gives birth to self-control. the point is, remember the limits of what we can afford. thus, gambling will not be a big problem in the future.

[imamusma]

Those are true and I quite agree with you but the simplest thing to stop gamble is when your reach out your budget and when you don't have money. That it.

If you really want to stop gambling just don't look at the gambling-related content or don't ever try demo account or game that related to gamble and you gonna save i believe

It is a very relevant, seemingly simple but quite effective way to try to stop gambling addiction. The initial purpose of gambling is to relieve some stress in the mind, by spending a little money and time, hoping to get some pleasure. But many then lose control of their emotions, act greedily by wanting to win big, or if they have already lost money then want their money back. A cycle that then becomes addictive, the initial goal of having fun is forgotten. I think if you want to stop being a gambler, it is better to stay away from that environment for a while, and reduce Smartphone use.

However, everything will come back to each individual, meaning that all the tips for stopping will just be words if you don't have complete self awareness. It is important to look a little further ahead, imagine what position you will be in in the future, and what it will be like if you continue to be a gambling addict. If someone finds a way of thinking like that, I think it will make it easier for them to stop those activities, of course that is very easy to say but difficult to do.

CONCLUSION

Maybe when a person is not really a gambler, when they really need a large amount of money, they always think of gambling because they think they can collect a lot of money if they are lucky. But they don't think about what if they lose?

This is what often happens in the real lives of the majority of gamblers in the field of online and physical casinos. I know many people who have done that before but did not win what they expected in gambling.

If a person needs money, they are clearly doing the wrong thing and need to reevaluate their life. If a person tries to recoup his losses in gambling, it means that he is not able to control himself and he needs to work on himself instead of gambling.

I am sure that such people will blame gambling for all their problems. They will never take responsibility for their actions. I would not recommend gambling to such people, because of their actions many people have a wrong opinion about gambling.

I'm trying to grab something out from this but I am finding it difficult. Like, have you been practicing this and it's working perfectly for you? I know having a daily limit of amount to spend gambling can help one from reckless gambling but I think setting a target to be won in a day doesn't sound good to me because it might push you to gamble beyond your limit. You may probably lose all the little winning you have in a day simply because you want to chase the target you set to be won before closing for the day. I would just advise someone to set a budget of what to be spent and not what to be won instead. Greed is one thing killing most of the gamblers and this very strategy you suggested might just trigger it and take away the fun of gambling since you already have the target amount you want to hit.

You should not gamble using your hard earned money.

Then which money are you meant to gamble with if not your own money?

It is strange asking someone not to gamble with their hard earned money, do you expect them to borrow, beg or use someone else's money to gamble?

Gamble with your own money, but have a budget.

I completely agree with the argument you explained. Because the three points you mentioned are a reality that often occurs among gamblers. So after I think more deeply about the characteristics of a gambler who has one of these three point habits, maybe from the start he is not a gambler who does not intend to gamble for fun. However, they only intend to make a profit. So you can be sure that gamblers who have intentions and habits like that will definitely not run smoothly. Because it is certain that gamblers who have a habit or intention of only seeking profit must have very big ambitions. However, this big ambition will actually become something that endangers him. Because when you lose at gambling you will definitely try your best to get money (capital) so you can gamble again. So in essence, gambling without the intention of entertainment is not good in my opinion. Because even though it is true that gambling does have a basis for multiplying money. However, in my opinion, this cannot be used as the main benchmark for gambling. But more precisely, I only consider the profits obtained from gambling as just a bonus. Because for me personally, the main benchmark in gambling is not just money, but what is more important is the fun.

But even so, people's thoughts and understanding of gambling definitely differ. So the arguments you give and my personal opinion will definitely not be agreed with by all gamblers.

[coin-investor]

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

Based on my experienced of those gamblers who become addicted they do not know if they have a gambling problem at all, all they know is they have to find a better method to win, and finding a better method to win takes a lot of time and money.

In my case I just realized when I become a misery that I have a gambling problem, so you will not realize you have a gambling when you're started to have problem, you will only realized it when you have nothing left, all those times you thought that you are close in making money or finding a method to beat the house
Just try to play a mine sweeper you will always find a winning pattern but the next day your winning pattern is not working anymore so you will try to find another one its an endless trial and error until you realized you have nothing to sustain your quest to find a winning pattern.

CONCLUSION

What you mentioned above is what most gamblers do. They are gamblers who cannot control their emotions and finances. I agree with you that gambling is just for fun so you shouldn't expect returns from it, right? The problem I see with gambling is that many poor people try to put their hopes in the bookies. They hope that a little betting can change their lives. I think it was a mistake. You should just have fun by gambling. Betting a little money and enjoying the game is what a wise gambler should do.

👉👉Under pressure or frustration
Gambling under pressure or frustration may make you go beyond your plan. It can also make you to make wrong decision from your bet. So it's better to do away with gambling during this period.

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

I am not sure whether this applies universally to all gamblers, I believe it is rather a situational thing, which depends on the gambler's personality and also the personal situation which the gambler is going through. I have seen many people in this sections to say they like to gamble as a way to get rid of stress and frustration of their daily life, so it implies frustration and stress is not supposed to be a denying factor for staying away from gambling if one can control it and be responsible about possible losses.
Though, I agree one is not supposed to gamble when under pressure, specially if that pressure has anything to do at all with money or finances, since the gambler will quickly link their frustration/pressure to the outcomes he needs and the ones he is getting from the session.

It is a complex topic, it would be ideal we each one of us knew our own personality and traits, so we know where we are supposed to draw the line about whether they are supposed to gamble or stay away from casinos while calming down.
