Have you achieved anything from gambling

[Rabata]

This topic really interest me to talk about because I know so many persons have their own say about this,some will be on the side that gambling have helped their life,while the other once will say gambling and it addiction has been worst for them, everybody is entitled to their own opinion and what they have experienced while gambling.But all I know about gambling since I started it is that it has high addiction rate,there is no sure odd in gambling,and the losing rate in gambling is more higher than the winning rate.Since  I tarted gambling,I can say that I have had losses more than wins,let me say my win is just 3 percent out of 100.

There are more losses than wins in gambling and one of the reasons why this number is higher is that there are many people in gambling who cannot be satisfied after winning. There are many gamblers who try to get one win after another. As a result they lost again later. Some gamblers fail to set their goals in gambling. Their failure is the main reason for loss in gambling. For those who cannot control their greediness, the winning ratio is very low. I got relatively much from gambling but could not keep it. But I have learned from my past mistakes. Now I try how I can hold on to my winnings.

And knowing the main purpose of gambling should not let this bother you in any way, this is obvious the reason why gambling should never be taken as a career or profession that anyone should depend on for livelihood, except the person is running a casino, which actually is a very lucrative business.

When it comes to this industry, there are lots of different experiences, even those who claim gambling changed their lives, still have a chance of losing it all if they are still gambling, and not investing in other means of making passive incomes.
And for the person that is gambling and havent won any thing that is worth celebrating, they also have a chance of one day, winning such if they keep gambling and do not give up.
So in the end, it all boils down to when one's time comes, his or her luck shines, but to maintain an everlasting good experience and story, investing outside of gambling is very important.

When people lose their money in gambling, they will lose control of their emotion and that can attract them to keeps playing gambling because they wants to gets their money back. They will forget about limitation, self control, or even how long they can playing gambling. They will keeps playing gambling without stops for a while to reduce their tension after lose streak but they will difficult to achieved anything from gambling.

If they see the reality that achieving something from gambling is difficult, they should re-think about that and will not try too hard to playing gambling. They should just use gambling for having fun and not trying to achieve anything from gambling because that can makes them lose much money. If they don't wants to lose much money, it's better they try to limits their money for playing gambling and just trying to enjoy the games.

Well not everyone lose control. And i am sure that many people lose control before they lose all their money, and that's one of the reasons they will lose all their money. And only after losing the money they realize that they have a problem and that they need to get their control back. And obviously people can lose their money without losing any control. That's just a nature of gambling and that's the reason for gambling budgets being a thing.

But yeah, this happens to people who can't keep it all fun and games, but see it as viable way for income, while it's nothing but. I mean obviously people CAN get income from it, but assuming one does will soon get to be a financial problem.

We definitely have different thoughts regarding the achievements of the gambling we do, one of which is by participating in a betting pool and betting is a long bet because we have to take part in a genuine competition. Others may get different achievements while they gamble.

No, no, if I said that ending up in the top three of a competition run here on bitcointalk was an achievement, I didn't mean winning a million in a poker tournament or hitting a jackpot on slots with a massive reward was't an achievement. Those are great achievements too.

This is the same feeling I think for us as gamblers, only we have differences in achievement. It's not a matter of winning or not, but there is a certain satisfaction that we feel while we gamble. Maybe winning is something that will definitely make us happy, but we must also realize that we won't always be able to win. Therefore there is an achievement that we change to something else that we can feel pleasure while in it.
Maybe there are also those who have never won in multi betting, they will feel it is an achievement when they win. Others might be happy with different things. Yes we will have fun that is different from others.

I personally consider winning in multi betting with a good multiplier a big achievement. My personal record is around 150x and I know how it feels.

It’s just that the OP was lucky since he wrote that he got something tangible from this, because his colleagues at work did not get such a positive experience as he did and every player before starting to play should understand that this will more often be a negative experience, because there are more losers in gambling than those who won. But of course everyone wants to test themselves and see how luck will treat them, even I was interested in this. But my high expectations were immediately shattered and I became more cautious and calm in the game after that.

As for what gambling gave me, it is that money cannot be given easily, moreover, gambling creates the illusion of this, but in fact, luck chooses the winners. Of course, in addition to this, I realized that I began to better understand people, their attitude to money, and I also began to better calculate probabilities and much more. I can’t say that I regret spending time on this, but some of this helps me in life, for example, a more balanced attitude towards money and appreciating the little that we have, and not chasing big money.

That's true, the interesting part is when a gambler shares that it can be done. Although I have doubts that it can be done, I am still positive that there are gamblers out there who could make it happen especially those who are in the sports betting industry.
The ones who can analyze the game clearly and whose winning percentage is high can definitely achieve something in gambling. But for those who are playing casino games and slots, I have high doubts that making money out of it is consistent. There may be some big lucky strikes when they hit the multiplier but there will always be a storm after it, a consecutive problematic losing streak where the casino is trying to get back what they lost.

I have achieved no money hence I have lost a lot of money on gambling and I have achieved all bad things. But for some time I feel better about gambling while I make money. I can make a good amount of money by placing a bet on a sportsbook but at the final stage I lose all of my funds I do not know whether it is the perfect way or not.

[Sakanwa]

Gambling is not what one will place his or her mind on in the bid to becoming rich,it is something that is hard to predict, therefore,the chances of winning is less than the chances of loosing.It is what you just need to do and try your luck with, because if you should place your mind on it as something that can give you money,you will shed tears.
I once thought I can pay my school fee with gambling,in those weeks and months,I started gambling consistently thinking one day will be my day,but the more I gambled,the more I was losing money till I decided to put an end to it, therefore, Gambling  isn't good to rely on.

The topic trends is interactive and interesting for everyone. Gambling is very risky because I've come to realized how miserable it can turn one to be when he or she is running at severe losses. We can start to gamble but we should be ready to acknowledge our stats and also create room to accept defeats. Wins and losses are inevitable, we just have to learn how to stick with the system.

Yeah, that's how the game works.

Most of the time you will lose money, and of course you will get some wins along the way.

It's all about psychology. It you play a game where you always lose, you will stop playing it. But if you play a game where sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose, that makes it interesting and you come back.

Now, humans are very bad at probabilities so they won't really know how good or bad a gambling game is in terms of probabilities.

At the end of the day, the casinos have the advantage. You pay to them in the long term. It should probably be seen as paying for entertainment. Never assume you will get back what you bet. It's most probably lost.

It is almost guaranteed that you will lose your money over the course of gambling and in the long run. 
Psychology is indeed important, but the vast majority of gamblers do not think at all about such issues as changing the game to another after a long series of losing to it in that particular game.  Usually the player does this simply in the hope that the new version of the game will be happier for him in terms of winnings. 
Or, at least he will start winning more often.  But this usually doesn't work out.  And the process of changing the game continues for a long time.  This is exactly the ratio of wins and losses that is typical for all novice players.  Then, of course, the ratio changes a little as you gain gambling experience. 
But in any case, the number of losses radically outweighs. 
This is a typical picture of the development of your gaming history.  And this provides very large revenues and profits for the casino.

Agreed, indeed the comparison between losses is much higher than wins and there are several factors that trigger the emergence of these losses, such as one of which is what you have mentioned, namely the greed factor and dissatisfaction in receiving gambling results.
Gamblers like this are included in the category of gamblers who have a very high level of addiction because if the gambler is addicted then he cannot control himself in playing gambling properly and correctly, cannot accept and realize that the risk of gambling tends to be very high so what is in his mind is playing and playing to get a lot of money at the casino.
If you can realize the wrong actions you have made in the past and you try to be wiser and more careful in the future then you are a responsible and professional gambler.

Well, unfortunately, in my history of casino games it is like that, only that those losses have made me mature a lot and learn, for example, in the management of risks with money it was something that I learned practically by blows and because of the enormous losses that I had at a given moment, but if I had not had them I would not have reached the technique that is applied today in trading and in games of chance, which for me are analogous and totally applicable to it, it consists of playing with little money and with the available to lose, if I lose I simply assume it and do not insist more, of course you have to have the discipline of not depositing more even if I am dying to continue playing.

Yeah, that's kinda how it works in general, most people will lose more than what they earn.

But, any time a gambler wins big they will let everyone around them that they just won.

It doesn't matter that they won say 100 and put 200 in, all that matter is that they just won 100.

We must not forget that the more we play, the more likely we are to hit the jackpot, the main question is when this will happen. If we are lucky and this happens at the beginning of our gaming journey, then we will have the opportunity to simply leave the casino, although I perfectly understand that this is very difficult to do for many reasons, but the key idea here is that this will happen to someone. The rest of the players will never experience this, and even if they could take their winnings and leave, they will not be able to do so.

Sometimes you need to think about different things, and one of them that arises for me is how the casino makes money, if on me, then how can I tip the scales on my side as much as possible. This will reduce my losses, although it will not guarantee a win. But as I mentioned earlier, whoever lasts longer in a casino with minimal expenses is already good, if at the same time we get at least some satisfaction, and do not go to play like a soulless gaming machine.

[ethereumhunter]

Well not everyone lose control. And i am sure that many people lose control before they lose all their money, and that's one of the reasons they will lose all their money. And only after losing the money they realize that they have a problem and that they need to get their control back. And obviously people can lose their money without losing any control. That's just a nature of gambling and that's the reason for gambling budgets being a thing.

But yeah, this happens to people who can't keep it all fun and games, but see it as viable way for income, while it's nothing but. I mean obviously people CAN get income from it, but assuming one does will soon get to be a financial problem.

Many people lose control in gambling and makes them lose much money but they don't realizes about that. That will happens too wit us if we don't have strong self control and don't limits our money and time. They must stops from playing gambling immediately and leave casino for a while to reduce their tension so they will reminds what they must do when playing gambling. If they can't do that, they will lose control and that will happens many times.

But all of that, people can makes money from and achieve what they wants. But before people trying to do that, they must thinks and calculate how much money they will use to playing gambling because that will not worth if they lose all of their money just wants to achieve something from gambling. Those people who wants to makes money from gambling must realizes that they way to gets the money will not easy because they can lose big money so that will not worth to them. It's better they used their money to create a business that can gives them the profit.

I agree with your statement that staying in a gambling game for a long time with minimal losses of money is definitely an achievement.  And this is probably the best option in the history of any player who has never been able to get a huge win in his life. 
By the way, there are many more such players than the lucky ones who have become seriously and truly rich through gambling.  And by the way, most of the lucky ones still lost the money they won or spent it on nonsense.  If we talk about ordinary players, then you really should take this money spent as payment for pleasure, and indeed, you paid relatively little for each hour of play.  And this is of course a good feeling. 
In my opinion this is exactly how it is.

The odds are always the same, independent of how many times you have played.

Imaging throwing a dice, the chances of getting a six is always 1 in 6, no matter how many times you have done it in the past.

Now, if you meant something like, the chances of getting a 6 after X amount of throws, then yeah, the more times you throw, the more chances you have. For example after 6 throws it is expected that you should have one six.

[Promocodeudo]

I wonder why people come out to say they haven't achieved anything from gambling,and they still go on to play games.How can you know that something is not good for you,and you still go on to continue that stuff,is that not foolishness?.So many people are aware that gambling will only wreck their life's rather than add something  reasonable to it.But I can still say that gambling needs understanding because most people who are winning on a daily still put head together and are able to get the ones that would not dissappoint them,and fear giving it out, because there is no sure game anywhere.

You don't  have to be surprised because gambling is a habit that metamorphosis to addiction and you know what that means, most times when you ask some gamblers why are they deep into it, there response will be like, we are hopeful to win, you mever can tell the particular selection that will make us win, this has always been their mindset, your reasoning with theirs can never be the same, a chronic gamblers believes that a missed gambling session is an opprtunity to win, gamblers have a different understanding about things, i have met a gambler who told me that if you don't gamble, you will still spend your money on something else so instead of you to do that why not put it in gambling you might be lucky to win, that's to tell you that many gamblers see gambling as a way of making quick money, even though the lose, they keep pushing hoping that their day will come as for quiting is a no no thing for them.

Absolutely agree with you. Each subsequent roll is not connected with the previous one, and therefore the probability that even after a thousand rolls with falling of numbered faces 1-5 the probability of falling of numbered face 6 also remains equal to 1/6. At the same time, the more you make rolls of the dice the more times the numbered face 6 can fall out, but do not forget that after each roll with the fallout of numbered faces 1-5 you lose your money. In addition, there is a high probability that even after making six throws you will not fall out the numbered face 6.
