Have you achieved anything from gambling

[delfastTions]

So far and as far as I can remember, I have ever achieved a victory that for me was quite large or the highest victory while I was involved in gambling, which was approximately $ 80 with a capital of $ 10 on one type of casino game such as slots, and of course it was a really very pleasant situation, and I will not lie that at that time I had time to apply greed because of the hope of rounding up my victory so that it could be $ 100, but it turned out that the opposite happened, in the sense that my balance actually decreased to $ 60, it was a situation that made my anxiety increase until finally I managed to make a decision to cash out and use the money for some items that I needed at home such as a small TV for example.

Although I did not succeed in achieving the winning target that I expected but at least I managed to come out with a winning position, but now I realize my mistake that actually gambling should not be used as a place or intermediary to achieve anything, because on the other hand I saw that some of my friends who had great ambitions to get something significant from gambling actually ended up horribly, in the sense that instead of getting a lot of wins but what happened was they lost a lot of money and even sold various goods and vehicles they owned, and after that I tried to justify my point of view by not putting any hope in gambling.

Self-control is very important, especially after the wins, in my opinion. You can hold yourself before the big shiny prize arrives, and then it's up to you whether to use it or to try to gain the one even shinier. I applaud your discipline, even if it came a bit later than needed, you still cashed out and had a good time.

This, in my opinion, is what distinguishes a really good player from a mediocre one or from a novice in gambling.  The ability to cash out winnings on time seems to me to be an important indicator in a player’s experience.  It is an experienced player who has the necessary level of self-control who quite rarely makes the mistake of simply continuing the game and not having time to cash out the winnings.  As a rule, such players develop good intuition and the decision to stop playing is made by them rather on an intuitive level and, as a rule, this decision turns out to be correct.

From a general perspective, you actually might be right, but from a personal perspective, I don't quite agree with you bud, you have to understand that even while gambling, people have different needs for money, that is, the need for money at a particular time as of different levels for different people depending on individual financial capacity.

A rich boy (for example) who is gambling and won some money which he clearly has no need for at that moment, may likely choose to continue to gamble/play the game as long as he is enjoying it, this decision does not make him a mediocre or novice gambler, he just simply does need the money for anything at that, and even if any thing should come up, he definitely has more than enough money to sort things out for himself, so in essence, he doesnt depend on money he made from gambling as a means of livelihood.

It's only those who are deepending on money made or won from gambling that rush to make a withdrawal after a major win, so they don't end up losing it all back to the casino.

Yeah!  I certainly agree with this.  Of course, if a player has an urgent need for money, then he will most likely withdraw the money to his account immediately after winning.  And this will happen faster compared to gaming actions with a deposit of a rich guy who can afford what is called “throwing away money.”

 Here, another question that can be considered important is the player’s most important question about how much money a particular player can really lose in order not to get into a critical situation simply in his life.  Obviously, a player in need of money often puts his last money on the game and at the same time takes a lot of risk.  In terms of intensity, this game cannot be compared to the game of a rich guy with a lot of money.  And the main thing is that such a game should not become a game of despair for the poor player.  After this game, the search for money begins and often this is a criminal option, theft, robbery, extortion, and so on.

Of course, self-control is a skill that I think is mandatory for a gambler to have in any situation, especially in a winning situation, by having self-control, I think it is unlikely for a gambler to apply greed in himself, for example, luck still persists without them knowing, in the end, yes, as you said, basically all decisions are in the hands of a gambler, it's up to them to continue or stop and cash out, there is no problem with that as long as from the start they are aware of the risks if they choose the decision to continue in order to achieve a greater victory.

On the other hand, one of the reasons why greed is always a prohibited action is because not everyone is able to accept the reality of losing when they have previously seen that they have won the amount, meaning please if you really want to apply greed as long as from the start you have really agreed with yourself not to be emotional or not to feel regret when it turns out that everything ends in loss.

Reality can be harsh, but you should be harsher in order to think wisely. You are right, greed can turn the tide pretty quickly in our minds, and it's one of the reasons why we can spend more than we initially planned. Greed can be applied, but emotionless one, knowing for sure that the odds won't be in your favor (probably) and you do it with your own head on your shoulders.

Wont really happen from time to time because despite of being not rich there would really be those people who would really be still throwing money despite of their financial conditions.
This is why we cant really be able to drawn out any conclusion in regarding about wasting money. It could really happen to anyone in disregard into their financial status or condition.
The key on here is that you should really be that playing gambling for the sake of fun and entertainment and never ever make yourself trying out to achieve something from gambling
specially on having to hit that huge win or able to hit up jackpots because on the moment that you would be having this kind of target then you are really just that basically putting up yourself on being desperate.

Its really that important that you should really know on what you are really that doing specially on dealing up with gambling on which we know that majority of people
would really be that becoming that too hopeful about doing gambling on which they are expecting that they could really make that huge winning on the time
that they will really be doing gambling or they would be playing on. Its really that recommended that you should really know on setting up limits and control
specially when it comes to finances.

I have not achieved anything so far from it yet sometimes I have won a considerable amount just to recoup some of my massive lost amounts in many sessions.I have learned a thing or two from gambling though and that is never play slot machines no matter how addictive and fun they can be in the beginning as they are money killers for 99.90% of gamblers.I have learned that the best game to play is definitely Poker as skill can determine more than 75% of the outcome and only luck is 25% in total and then it comes sport betting.So my best advice to anyone is stop losing money by playing slot machines.

Why a lot of people consider winning a lot of money as an achievement? Imho this is a reward for taking a risk. People spend money and try their luck, test their prediction, try to beat random. Just a process of spending money and obligatory of a casino to pay a reward. Otherwise spending time to get to work and getting a salary should be considered as an achievement

An achievement would be a victory in a tournament, or getting a trophy. Beating an addiction will be an achievement. Saving a friend from reckless gambling and loosing will be an achievement. Becoming more emotionally stable and disciplined will be an achievement. Even understanding that gambling is for fun, but not for making money is an achievement.

[crwth]

This is an ancient topic, but I think it’s still relevant and needs to be discussed. I feel like I haven’t achieved anything with gambling aside from losses. It's hard to not expect anything, but I have managed this with expectations dealing with my risk management.

I still divided some gambling games, because in some the luck factor is very high and little depends on us as players, for example, if you take the game of roulette with bets on red and black. In this game you do not need to apply much intelligence. And there are games like poker, where the luck factor certainly plays a role, but not such a huge one. And if we calculate the bank odds well, read the opponents and their psychology perfectly, train in programs like HM2 and others, strictly observe money management for our bankroll. All this will ultimately allow us to win tournaments or greatly increase our deposit, so it is in poker that I would call winning money an achievement that is very difficult to achieve.

Did you have a good time? In my opinion, it should be the main thing to strive for. Why did you lose, what do you yourself think?

[Ann3tt3]

Hello pals , this might Sound Crazy And funny But there are some meanings To It when looked At critically ,I Was having some chats with My colleaques in the Office And I told them that I am waiting for the right Time to stake my bets online and one of them opted that he hates gambling and that he has never achieved anything from the money he makes while gambling , and that he either Drinks with The money or goes to club with his girl Friend and many more unfortunate reasons .

Still on the matter another colleaque of mine backed him up saying that since he started gambling that he has never achieved anything tangible from gambling and that he feels that something mysterious is associated with the money he makes from gambling.

Lastly , i Dont know If you have achieved anything from gambling or you have same perception like my colleaques But for me i have achieved something reasonable and tangible from gambling , So please friends let me see your opinions on this .

I share the same opinion as your colleagues. All the money that was won and withdrawn was spent on some frivolous things. Clubs, parties, etc. I would say nothing serious was bought with this money, unfortunately.

This is common with gamblers but you were lucky to overcome it and cash out the remaining after you started losing the part of it. It was your self control that made it possible for you to do that because some gamblers who can not control themselves will definitely continue to play thinking they would be able to recover the loss and probably round up the figure to $100 but will end losing everything if care is not taken.

It's normal to attempt to round up a figure though it's likely you can not achieve that but it is very wrong to continue playing after you lose in your first attempt. This is why it's necessary to have a bankroll while playing to avoid being skeptical about whether to continue playing or to call it a day. However, if you are ready to lose the winning at hand in the expense of your aim, you can continue to play.

Gambling can even achieve non-obvious things. For example, when it comes to not only winning money, various titles and victories. For example, you can begin to understand probabilities well, learn to count in your head perfectly and quickly, calculate future risks, begin to understand what dispersion is, and also learn to work with big data and much more. Even after such a player stops playing for a long time or forever, he can find a good job where some of these skills are needed. Thanks to them, he can look better against other employees and get a promotion with a good salary.

I understand what you are saying where with experience there is a possibility that a gambler will know that cashing out at the right time is a skill that must be possessed or must be prioritized, and of course different from gamblers who are still beginners who do not have any knowledge because their experience is still minimal so they are more susceptible to making mistakes.

I myself feel it, I am quite active in gambling which I may have gambled for about 3 years and quite a lot of things that I have experienced which usually what is often difficult to ignore is greed, and I am sure this is also a problem experienced by most gamblers when they are in a winning situation, but when you have the desire to always bring your mindset to be more rational then you will be able to fix it slowly, I am also fixing it by always trying to maintain awareness so as not to make the same mistakes as greed.

Yes and that should have been thought of since the beginning of someone doing it, in the sense that before you enter the greed process you should have thought and considered all the consequences and risks, simply make sure that after the results appear you do not have any negative reactions especially when it turns out that you end up losing and losing all the winnings you have previously obtained.

In most cases something that triggers greed without a doubt is because often a gambler feels that a bigger win is near, they feel that they will get a bigger jackpot in a little while, and in fact these thoughts arise due to significant hopes and beliefs caused by themselves who are too excessive in responding to previous wins so that they trigger an increase in dopamine levels in the brain. The point is to think and consider first before you decide to execute.

Haha we will feel all of that, even big win will definitely be return for the previous losses or losses in the next few sessions because after getting big win it is impossible for us to really stop and surely at another time we will still gamble again.
Those who can really make money and profit from gambling are gamblers who also make their gambling sessions as streaming broadcasts, they will get multiple profits and also some bonuses when they succeed with the referrals that are shared.
In addition, only people gamble to feel defeat and also loss, except for those who are willing to lose for fun.

Talking about games, various games of luck will always be more difficult to win, especially for games like slots which can always spend large amounts of money in shorter time, but I think almost all games are the same because the amount of loss depends on the amount of our bet.
For the opportunity to generate victory or profit, I also agree if prioritize games like poker or sports betting, this will greatly affect skills and knowledge so that we ourselves can increase our chances of winning.

Good point. It's a harsh process to learn how to do what you described, but it's totally worth it.

specially on having to hit that huge win or able to hit up jackpots because on the moment that you would be having this kind of target then you are really just that basically putting up yourself on being desperate.

It is precisely forcing yourself to approach gambling this way, as it seems to me, that is an extremely difficult task for many players. 
The fact is that the very thought of the possibility of a huge win still periodically appears in your brain, and it is also stimulated by all kinds of advertising, including constant reports in the media that some lucky person has won a million or millions of dollars in gambling.  Perhaps I’ll remember the onset of a lucky streak, known to all players, when you began to intuitively feel that such a lucky streak had begun.  Sometimes, of course, this is self-deception.  But this is also an incentive to continue playing even if at first you are not very lucky. 
But in general, of course, approaching gambling as entertainment is optimal for a person who is passionate about gambling.

After all the information I received about gambling, I honestly learned the following: among all the many ways that should influence a gambler so that he does not lose too much money in casinos and betting, and I think the most effective of them is: honesty and openness to relatives, and their full awareness of how much the gambler spends gambling.
I think that loneliness is the main enemy of a gambler. This is my conclusion.

Good point. It's a harsh process to learn how to do what you described, but it's totally worth it.

This is something that leads to self-acceptance regarding risk, meaning that the initial action that must be taken is to re-evaluate yourself about whether you understand and know about the concept of gambling or not, and if not then you must re-understand it as a whole about how gambling really is.

Understand that winning is nothing more than a probability, in the sense that it is something that will not always happen because it depends on luck, and by understanding this I am sure you will be able to limit your expectations.

In addition, realize that losing is a part that cannot always be separated from the game, meaning that losing will always be a definite possibility or will continue to lurk you as long as you run a session.

This awareness can make you think again every time you make a decision, when you win then you will be quite hesitant to continue because of the fear of losing everything again (unless you are ready for all the risks), and when you lose you will not experience excessive emotions because from the start you have understood that losing is part of the game, and this is an approach to responsible gambling.

Being honest to other people is not easy and not many people can do that. Many people lie about what they do and other people doesn't know if those people are playing gambling and even they becomes addicted to gambling. They can't honest with their gambling activity to other people so other people can helps them and search for the solution to cure the gambling addiction.

Loneliness can be the main enemy of a gambler because they don't have any activities to do and don't want to do something that can benefit them. They found gambling can entertain them and dragging them too deep in gambling until they don't wants to do anything else. They want to achieve something from gambling but they don't realizes that gambling is not a place to achieve anything. They just want to still doing that without trying to introspect what happen to them so far.

Yeah, that is the reality.

Many people will feel a connection with gambling, usually with the staff at the pub or wherever they gamble.

It is a bit weird but that's how the casinos end up winning their money,
