I think since the positive results you mentioned here let's assume it might be betting wins. Since you gamble less and are less likely to have an asset here, it's good to be able to get out. But you must gamble less then you will somehow become addicted to gambling, and you will have to fall into many chains to get out of it. And if you have been gambling regularly then it will surely turn you into an addiction, in that case you should not gamble regularly but abstain for a period of time. It will be good for you if you stop when you are in gambling lost, you can continue gambling if you keep winning. But you have to understand that not everyone can be a winner in gambling, and if you find something positive in it then you can continue your gambling.

What are these conspiracy theories? If we talk about gambling in online casinos, the results of gambling are managed by a distribution algorithm that has no information how much money you have in your pocket, how long you want to play, when you finish the gambling session, etc. In gambling everything is based on algorithms and randomness, and our brain is organized in such a way that it tries in any situation (even incomprehensible) to build logical chains, which may be false.

The biggest mistake that people have made when they get involved in gambling is when they start thinking about making profits, and when they are faced with the harsh reality that they are having more losses than successes, these people become desperate, and lose what little fear they have. What's left for them to do is put a lot of money into gambling and they start playing with a lot of money which in most cases is money that they can't afford to lose and they play and lose and as a consequence they start to borrow money and lose and then cannot pay back the money they borrowed

As they are unable to pay back the money they borrowed, they start selling all their goods, but as they are addicted to gambling, they take the money from the things they sold and instead of paying their debts, they go gambling and lose all the money. in the game and debts are being collected, under the pressure they are under, they start stealing money on the streets or at work or at relatives' houses

One of the issues with the human brain is that we are so good at finding patterns that we see patterns everywhere even when they are not there, and you pointed out this is a mistake the OP is making, casinos get their profits out of simple math that probably any kid these days can understand, however instead of accepting this simple fact, it is way more attractive for many people out there to create a convoluted story about why they obtained those results.

the main difference is the way you see it

one believes that you think about something and then it'll magically reach your life
the other point of view considers that you think about something, your actions point in the direction of it and then you end up getting what you want.

same same, but different

it's like a manifesting? I mean, the more we think of it, the more we achieve or gain it, like if you want to have that thing, you need to think more positive thoughts about it and it will serves as a motivation for us to achieve that thing. so if the things that we keep thinking about are not good, let's stop because we might attract that thing even more and make it come true. Not sure if this is true but many have had such an experience.

the thing for me is that if I just think positively and try to manifest things from my room but don't move my ass to do stuff nothing will happen
I think being positive helps but it's definitely not enough
it's action that moves things in the world.

what do you think?

Action moves the needle. You can think all you want, but if you never take those thoughts into action they stay exactly that, trapped inside your head! Unfortunately this isn't exactly bringing the desired outcome one would wish to have with gambling, I think the trick is to actually believe that you will win! There was this study done that focusing on an object changes the circumstances of that object, simply because it is being watched! I found it fascinating- I will try to find this study and link it. As this relates to gambling I wonder what studies have been done on gambling and luck? 

[Accardo]

The issue with most gamblers as regards to how gambling works is, they forget how the brain works. It's fine Op noticed this changes. The more one gambles the more he makes mistakes. The brain works extraordinarily hard when it comes to gambling. It's not straight forward, we tend to guess what would be in the next few minutes. That's gambling. And this activity stresses out the brain in the most difficult ways. Repeating it each day only leaves the brain weak and tired of thinking properly on such matters.

But after a few days of rest and participating in the game afresh the brain recovers more energy to think and performs just well during the game. Whatever activity that requires brain power must be accompanied with enough rest, if one must gain the results they want. This has to do with us, the gamblers, not the casino. Although the casino controls the results, one may think, but with the brain gaining enough rest, the player would have the energy to think well, and control his decisions.

I haven't seen many studies on gambling and luck but would luck to read a bit more about it
gambling, luck and positive vs negative thinking would be really interesting to see too

maybe somebody else in the forum can help on that?

This stage is the worst stage of gambling addiction,the moment One has gotten to the point of selling his properties or borrowing money from a firm or from people,that is when you are finished.This type of people have already given up on life because gambling is what controls their lifes at this stage,they no longer think when gambling,they gamble with pain,anger, depression,thinking and hoping one day will be their day.They no longer make proper research about the teams they want to stake on,the just go about picking odds that will be difficult,and think that one day,it will be their day, This state is the worst.

Gambling is all about having fun and there is nothing there to harm us, but many have taken this for granted in such a way that it has influence the way of their behaviors and they got addicted into it and also do beyond what is expected of them with gambling, this should be discouraged and we should know that aside fun, we should see gambling as nothing with a bad intention on us except we choose to have it that way.

I'm pretty sure that this doesn't work in gambling, thinking that you will win won't make you win because almost every gambler who gambles for money thinks they will win but it doesn't make them win all the time because winning and losing in gambling depend on the gambler's luck and nothing influences that unless they are playing a game or something that isn't completely dependent on luck.

Sports betting is an example of that, a person doesn't need only luck to be able to make bets in sports games but they need knowledge and experience mostly because the results of sports games isn't always influenced by luck.

All in all, I don't believe that by thinking that something will happen it doesn't happen when we are gambling, this might work in other things but not in gambling.

Have you ever noticed or am I the only one?

The more active I become with gambling, the more it drags me back, luckily I keep risking only what I want to lose.

The less active I become with gambling, the more positive it gets for me, not most of the time but my results are simply better than when I was very active.

It's like the casinos are wired to mess with the most active gamblers. I don't know, so far I can only find someone who has seen such before.

A friend who lives far away from me has also said the same, he got tired of gambling because it wasn't going his way but when he started talking it less seriously, that's when he started to get positive results.

Has anyone had the same experience before?

From your friend's experience that you mentioned above, this is a pretty good first step to repairing what was previously damaged by gambling. Your friends don't feel bored, but they already know what the impact is. Hopefully, your friend's experience will lead the way for many others to more positive results.

Yes, it's best to bet when you see a chance that you believe will win that round. That's much better than forcing yourself to join in and continue playing. Indeed, every platform maker really knows the psychology of each gambler. The more active or aggressive the gamblers are, the happier they are, as they please, controlling their wins and losses.

Gambling is all about having fun and there is nothing there to harm us, but many have taken this for granted in such a way that it has influence the way of their behaviors and they got addicted into it and also do beyond what is expected of them with gambling, this should be discouraged and we should know that aside fun, we should see gambling as nothing with a bad intention on us except we choose to have it that way.

This is the main factor that one needs if he or she wants to gamble in such away that he won't become addicted in future, if one want to gamble for fun he shouldn't think of how much or how big he could win. It's better to gamble for fun instead of gambling to make profits and after all that ends up getting addicted. When someone doesn't gambles for fun it influence them in a way that they will lose and still become addicted.

But having fun and getting benefits cannot be separated from gambling activities, then what is fun about gambling besides getting a win when you have the right prediction on soccer bets or on other games such as slots and others, it can be a fun factor for many people and feel proud that he won, the problem is that the person always thinks that he will win and is addicted to his winnings which makes him happy because his money increases by just turning his fingers.
Now to overcome this, there needs to be a limit and a lot to be safer in gambling even though we want that pleasure, simply not too often because it will make us addicted and have more expectations of gambling that can eat up our money that we ourselves are not ready to lose, because indeed the more active we are, the more frequent the defeats will be.

It's quite strange that I also feel that way, when we focus on gambling and more actively gambling more losses come to us even sometimes the victory in my opinion is gray, like very far away for me to reach, even until I think that maybe making a deposit again will be given a win by the house but not at all and just walking ordinary slicing my money until I can't gamble anymore in that session.

But when I was joking and not serious and then I didn't play for a few weeks and considered my gambling joke at that time, and the results were very positive even though I didn't have any expectations at that time, whether thinking about winning or losing I was very ignorant but then getting a win this does sound strange but I also enjoy it, although it also doesn't happen often, but it's true that when we are serious and focused it will be very annoying but when we are apathetic and just fulfill empty time it seems that luck does not stop and even much bigger.

This should be an important lesson, because being too active is also not a good thing, which will waste valuable time and will alienate us from our environment if we gamble too much.

Many just fail to understand gambling that is why they go about it in the wrong way thinking that is all about making money by all means. The truth is that playing gambling more will always leaf to excessive lose because their is no guarantee whereby playing gambling will bring more profit.  Gambling is supposed to be played for fun and with the amount of money that one can afford to lose, atleast this will reduce the number of loses that will occur if playing without control and it can also help in preventing one in getting addicted that can lead to some serious damages like depression and committing suicide.

Too much of everything will always give us a taste of its negativity. And that's why being too much active in gambling will might lead you to some bad experience.

If we gamble too much and we feel the urge is different this time. You know where it is going and that's becoming addict in gambling.

But before that happens, you know that you will want to stop it and you need to have that willpower for yourself to stop whatever initiatives you do.

oh Doan I don't think so
gambling is not only about having fun, lots of people approach it as a way to make money and many get hooked in the way

the harm is addiction

and we shouldn't take this lightly
maybe you're a lucky one that has good control of your power of will and have good mind body balance so you won't fall for addictions
the thing is... not everyone is like that

Op's experience doesn't differ from how humans feel whenever they consistently indulge in a specific activity. We'll definitely get tired and wouldn't perform adequately well, compared to how we work when energized, after days of complete rest. However, it's nice he's watching his habit and figuring out the right move. Talking to a community is the best choice he's made and it would help the player to receive varieties of ideas regarding his gambling habit. Personally, few days of rest solve my fatigue problem. Gamblers should go for vacations to replenish the energy which they've exhausted.

whatever you do with consistency is a thing you must be alert about and keep your attention on it
it can make you or break you
your actions will come from your thoughts so if you're not aware about your thoughts you end up in a bad situation
gambling is a delicate thing imo because it can be too risky.
