Gambling with a winning amount in mind

[AprilioMP]

May I say that it depends on the gambler?
There is a target win but I don't really prioritize it. It's not that I don't need it, I personally prefer more realistic targets such as how much money I allocate to play for an hour. If in that hour I can get a large or small amount of winnings, I will stop.
My thought process would continue to loop like that every time I gambled so I didn't know if I was categorized as an addicted gambler or just for fun.

With what you have said, I might say that you are a gambler who has a correct understanding of what and how gambling really is, I can't say whether you are a gambler who comes to have fun or a gambler, the reason is because I don't see you mention any aspect of fun above but you only say about the approach you have which leads to an approach that is not excessive by only targeting realistic wins.

That's too much because I'm not someone who understands gambling too well, but I'm just someone who enjoys every gambling game well at every opportunity because gambling is not a field for me to find a source of income.
All aspects must be realistic, including gambling. There's no way I can force myself to reach the target if there are no opportunities and chances.
If I lose in the game, it's a sign that I shouldn't force myself to keep winning.

I do think that gamblers who take gambling activities seriously have their motivation come from the amount  they envision and hope to win, hence why they remain persistent in gambling instead of quitting after winning a little.

A gambler with a winning amount in mind, gambles much more and can become easily addicted than a gambler just gambling for fun and without a particular winning amount in mind.

In essence the thought process a gambler focuses on during any gambling activities will determine if such a gambler would gamble much more or lesser than normal and also, if such a gambler would become successful at their gambling endeavors.

What are your thoughts?

I have a very clear idea about your question. Firstly, I agree with you that playing for fun is more useful than playing for money or winning. But I would like to point out a number of cases when a person comes to gambling for pleasure, but over time the thirst for money outweighs it in favor of a big win and the pleasure stops and perhaps even addiction occurs. I want to say that for each person similar processes can occur differently.

On the moment that you would really be having that kind of thing or have in mind when the time that you do play gambling then you would really be that definitely be having that high chance of losing or getting addicted.
Its really that important that you should really be that wary on the things that you are really that dealing on with so that on the moment that you would really be losing then you wont really be that impulsive.
This is why on the time that you do play gambling then you arent that anticipating or expecting too much. Play for fun would really be the key but majority of people would really be thinking on on how
they would really be that making those huge wins and this what makes them do desperate and what makes them that too desperate on things.On the moment that you are chasing up those winnings then it would be that a trigger that  you do really make yourself that having that kind of desperation.

This is why its important on how you would really be treating up with gambling on which you should really be  that seeing this as a form of fun and entertainment and not something that you
you would really be thinking about being getting rich because its never that too easy on achieving such stuff not unless if you are really that very lucky.

Gambling with high expectations is not advisable the game is supposed to be for entertainment and not to get your hopes high on getting money to solve your problems. Anytime I gamble with the mindset of planning to use my wins for something it always ends up going sideways. You can never control the outcome all you have to do is gamble responsibly and don't think about an amount of money that is not in your possession

Gambling with an eye on winnings is one of the signs of gambling addiction. Gambling is for fun. A person who lives gambling as a means of making money brings destruction in life. If a gambler gambles and if he wins, the winning makes him feel very emotional, then the person will be more motivated to gamble.  If he does not have money, he will gamble with money by borrowing. Gambling should always be for entertainment. Gambling should never be outside of entertainment. Moreover, it is better to use a fixed income budget for gambling.

If a person gambles with an extra win in mind then that person will lose at some point. For a while he will feel very lucky if he wins, there will come a time when he will feel very lucky and he will put more money on every bet, but at some point he will find that all the winnings of his life have been lost. So gambling is a very emotional game, this game should be played carefully, otherwise, if it becomes an addiction, shares will not be able to return to normal life, there will be a lot of trouble in normal life.

you have said it all because most of our people who participate in gambling they do participate in gambling with a motive of winning every time so that is one of the things that lead them into addition so when you overestimate in gambling it will also cause you harm in gambling I do advise whoever that involve itself in gambling to think low for anything they have to do in gambling you cannot be expecting high always in gambling that will make you to be a frequent or a regular gambler and it will consume you a lot of funds so someone who want to gamble she'd have a limitation and know that gambling is all about to risk

It's just like waking up every morning before you leave for your daily job. You have a target to meet that particular day, and even when you appear exhausted, you will still want to push yourself harder in order for that target to be achieved.

It is for me kinda abnormal to set a target to meet on an activity like gambling where we don't have control on and which outcome doesn't depend on how hard we push it or try. I think the motivation to push harder on life's issues is way out of context in the inclusion of gambling.

Indeed It actually sounds somehow setting a wining target on gambling when we all know that gambling is a game of uncertainty, though there is nothing wrong in wishing big or dreaming big in gambling but is better wining big when somebody did not expect than setting a target because one of the disadvantage of setting a wining target on gambling is that if the target is not met the person tends to continue gambling even when they continue losing they would always gamble with the hope to reach there target and through that method somebody can become bankrupt because of aggressive gambling, so perhaps instead of setting a wining target people should reason more on setting a budgeted betting target because it helps to reduce the rate at which people gamble.

Additionally, placing a win target on oneself can lead to emotional unrest  and can make a gambler love his life on false hope. Many gamblers that had to sell their properties just to be able to continue gambling, most of them do so perhaps out of a set target, in the hope that they will hit their target as they go on and use that money haven won to buy and replace those properties. Unfortunately for them, they become destitute through their own works.
There may not be available data to prove this but I think a larger number of the gamblers who win big life changing money are those that never set a winning target for themselves.

that's right, also with the many cases that have occurred about losses in my opinion it happens because most people who gamble have excessive expectations such as hoping that they can definitely get a big win and get profit with only a small capital, it is true that it can happen but unfortunately the difficulty of it happening makes them force themselves to continue gambling because they really want a big win to happen and get it.
gambling is something that involves luck and is probabilistic with its victory, so no one can guess when victory can be obtained and happen. we just need to play casually by not chasing a victory that is not yet clear, because when we want to chase victory it will only make us lose control which can make us forget that gambling is actually just a game of entertainment that is not recommended to consider it more than just entertainment. and when you have succeeded in getting a victory, you have to consider it carefully, don't let it be our opportunity to bet more freely, even though it can be done but the chance of losing is still just as big.

I don't think it's bad for a player to have a maximum winning limit, the problem is when that's your only criteria to stop playing.

To have a healthy game and be able to control it well, I believe that every player should have several daily or weekly limits:

• Maximum contribution limit (in value and quantity);
• Minimum and maximum limit of financial losses or gains;
• Maximum limit on time spent playing games;
• Minimum limit on social life or other entertainment that is not linked to betting.

Those who can control this definitely have a very low risk of becoming addicted to gambling, because by setting deposit, bet, time and loss limits, players protect their financial health, you avoid spending more money than you can afford to lose, manage your spending responsibly and avoid excessive debt and financial difficulties. Likewise, setting these limits reduces the risk of compulsive behaviors.

Exactly, a gambler with a winning in mind or goal can be a double edge sword, what I mean is that it could be beneficial or the opposite, for example if you hit your desired amount of winnings then its good because you can now know when to stop, worst you will want more, and the second one is that you will keep on gambling because you still chase your goal which is you will not notice that you are sinking yourself into a bad thing as you are blinded by your goal. So better play gambling with enjoyment in mind and not worrying about the money you will lose, so manage your funds to be used in gambling, if you know you cant afford to lose money then don't gamble at all because losing money in gambling is inevitable.

If they are motivate to make money from gambling, that will only makes them can not stops their gambling activity because they will thinks that they have another chance to win in the next rounds or days. They will make a target to achieve but they will not realizes that will be difficult to do as they must spends much money without knowing when they will wins. That will be dangerous for them because they can lose much money or even bankrupt from gambling and will only regret of what they do.

Gambling with a winning amount in mind will gives big risks to them because they will not see how long they can playing gambling and how much money they can use. They will not stops from playing gambling when they are not yet achieve their target. We already see many people gets deeper because of this so we must avoids that thinks in our minds so we can only use gambling for have fun and enjoy the gambling games.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

winning is one of the first motivations in Gambling, I don't think anyone will be gambling if there is nothing like winning and rewards in gambling, and as a matter of fact, before a gambler set out to gamble, he already have the intended winning in mind and at that if otherwise happens no one will feel good about it, so gambling to a large extent is because of the winning.
Although some people may say gambling is for fun and entertainment and that is the sole reason why they gamble, but then also what is the fun in gambling when you keep on losing?
I don't think there is fun in that and this should be clearly stated as a motive before setting out to gamble at any point in time.

This has come up in debate before, and based on my opinion, I always believe that if there were no reward system in gambling, there would be people who would still just take it for fun, but there would be no crowd in gambling compared to the number of popular gamblers we have today in the world. 

You are right to say that winning is a motivation in gambling, and it also acts as an attractive force. There's no human that feels so happy or rejoices over their failure, but everyone (anybody) will always feel happy and rejoice when they experience victory, and as long as gambling is concerned, a gambler will always feel much happier if they win their bet. It doesn't matter if the person is only gambling for fun or for profit. 

But on the note that people will not gamble if there is no profit attached, there are definitely a definitely a few people who will gamble just for fun.

I'm more comfortable gambling when I know what I'm aiming for, like the amount I'm anticipating to win before even putting my stakes on it. The specificity brings more mind relaxation to me and I can calculate myself properly with my stakes breathing in mind the outcomes.

That's why I enjoy football betting more than others as everything feels natural and direct for me and I understand it better since I play too, so it feels like normal activity tho me .

       -     We gamblers should have the habit that once we experience a win, we should stop and come back another day to play again. Twice or thrice winning should be the target to stop for a while in gambling.

The problem with others is that when they win, they feel like they will lose the house edge, which in fact will never happen, and it's still unclear as a blow to the moon. Greed shouldn't exist in such situations, that's all.

Greed is more influencing the person when they are in the winning streaks, thinking that they can continue winning, more gamblers unable to control their emotions as they wanted to keep rolling and keep gaining more, but when they start expreincing losses they got frustrated and more aggressive, it's going to tough especially when you already reached your target but you choose to play and lose after, where regret mostly the next thing that happened.

Yes, that is most likely what is often a fact, in the sense that gamblers often apply their greed when they are in a winning situation, where I often hear that they feel a much bigger win is near, that doesn't make sense, because after all in gambling there is no connection between previous results and the next results, or what is meant is that different times will usually have different results, and that is why consecutive wins are quite difficult to achieve.

Difficulty in controlling emotions I think is a certainty and natural thing because defeat is not the desired result for gamblers who come with full intention to produce, maybe I would call them losers who always want to win but are not ready to lose, in the end the idea will only bring more significant regrets.

Agree with you, although the winning target may not be a large amount, but at least by calculating the winnings by adding it to the existing balance, at least it will be more interesting in making bets. But even though we have  such a target, even though the results may also lose, at least it could be because we can feel pleasure in gambling, so even if we lose at least it doesn't frustrate us.

But indeed, when losing of course there will always be a sense of disappointment experienced but still,because we can enjoy betting at that moment then at least we will also remain fine. Because after all, basically we also only bet with money that is ready to lose. So yes,the point is interesting when we take into account the number of wins that become a certain target in a bet.

But what happens when you, for example, reach your goal? Do you withdraw your money and never play again? And what if you lose? Do not stop until your goal is reached?
It seems to me that there can be no such goals in gambling (unless it is a jackpot), the most important thing is the average loss/profit. If you win on average, say, 50 dollars from each thousand you bet, then this is a success. If you lose, then no matter what goal you set for yourself, on average you will be at a loss. My idea is that the goal is not some specific amount, but to be a profitable player.

[Dewi Aries]

With what you have said, I might say that you are a gambler who has a correct understanding of what and how gambling really is, I can't say whether you are a gambler who comes to have fun or a gambler, the reason is because I don't see you mention any aspect of fun above but you only say about the approach you have which leads to an approach that is not excessive by only targeting realistic wins.

That's too much because I'm not someone who understands gambling too well, but I'm just someone who enjoys every gambling game well at every opportunity because gambling is not a field for me to find a source of income.
All aspects must be realistic, including gambling. There's no way I can force myself to reach the target if there are no opportunities and chances.
If I lose in the game, it's a sign that I shouldn't force myself to keep winning.

Yes, it doesn't matter, but at least you are on the right track by having the right mindset so that you have a realistic approach to your gambling, there is nothing else I will say other than to maintain that mindset so that you can stay safe and avoid various bad possibilities such as those experienced by some people, especially those who are addicted.

If we approach gambling with rational thinking, then I am sure that we will all say that gambling is not the right place to find a source of income, and placing realistic expectations must always be maintained, because gambling is full of temptations that can indirectly make a gambler fall unconsciously and continue to force himself to pursue victory, and avoiding various excessive actions must always be based on realistic thinking.

I do think that gamblers who take gambling activities seriously have their motivation come from the amount  they envision and hope to win, hence why they remain persistent in gambling instead of quitting after winning a little.

What do you think about the fact that this envisioned amount of winnings can be greatly overstated, and the total amount of all envisioned amounts of gamblers who are serious about gambling is many times greater than the budget of the casino they play in?

A gambler with a winning amount in mind, gambles much more and can become easily addicted than a gambler just gambling for fun and without a particular winning amount in mind.

But it seems to me that the problem of gambling addiction has a different origin and is not connected with the imagined amount of winnings or the time spent gambling.

In essence the thought process a gambler focuses on during any gambling activities will determine if such a gambler would gamble much more or lesser than normal and also, if such a gambler would become successful at their gambling endeavors.

Whether a gambler will play more or less will depend on the "thickness of his wallet" and luck (RTP).

Gambling with high expectations is not advisable the game is supposed to be for entertainment and not to get your hopes high on getting money to solve your problems. Anytime I gamble with the mindset of planning to use my wins for something it always ends up going sideways. You can never control the outcome all you have to do is gamble responsibly and don't think about an amount of money that is not in your possession

There are some important bets we do have high expectations on and most time we end up losing the bets not dye to luck but the kind of the expectation and money that was involved could have made us to preferably lose some of these bets. I have been a victim before and I've lost so many bets even more because I was so curious and confident of winning such a bet but ended up losing big with my friends because I was not calm watching what the outcome would look like. I have really learnt how to stay calm even when we are so sure if the outcome of a particular bet. It is good we are always careful to watch how the game would play rather then making a lot of noises.
