My experience in gambling

[junder]

Understand the game's mechanics. Always, the house is ahead. So casinos make money. Not understanding that will doom you. Responsible gambling is understanding risks and playing prudently. It implies admitting why you're gambling and your goals. Knowing when to leave. Protecting people from gambling addiction is crucial. That includes public education, resource provision, and industry fairness and responsibility.

that's right, understanding gambling is something that gamblers rarely do because they can't control themselves when gambling so they don't think that there are bookies who have a greater advantage than the players. besides that, the purpose of the casino is to make money, even though there are players who can win I think it's natural because to keep players to continue gambling and make their casino's reputation good but the money they spend on winning is nothing compared to the profits they have earned.

when gambling is not understood properly then destruction can occur, such as the emergence of emotions that can make everything messy. that's why we must be able to gamble responsibly with the results that occur we must be able to accept it well and wisely whether we lose or win.
in my opinion before others, we ourselves must be able to protect ourselves from becoming addicted to gambling, one of which is by knowing when to stop which is usually easy to say but difficult to do.

As a gambler who's also encountered and heard the gambling ordeals of other gamblers, I can't agree more to your submission. Different gamblers have different gambling experiences and that's the essence of this topic so that gamblers can share their gambling experiences here which includes their mistakes so that others especially newbies can learn from them instead of making such mistakes again. One of the essence of this forum is to equip it's users with the needed knowledge to succeed in whatever activity that's discussed here of which gambling happens to be one of them.

I fully agree with your statement. It is important for gamblers to share their experiences, including their mistakes, so that others can learn from them. This forum is a great place to gather knowledge and advice on gambling and other activities.

Yes, because if we are able to use our common sense and rational perspective when assessing what and how gambling activities actually are, then I think we will all have the same understanding and belief, as I said above that this is nothing more than just an entertainment activity, or like a playground when you have boring free time.
This means that some gamblers who even dare to take various decisions and aggressive actions are those who do not understand how bad the risks are in these activities when done in the wrong way which tends to be excessive.
Therefore, I think it is clear that this is why we are always advised to always use our rational mindset when finding anything, none other than because that way it is less likely for us to try to make various stupid or careless decisions when you already know the risks and also when you already understand that winning depends on luck.

Like miniature golf or bowling, some folks behave like its innocent fun. If you're playing for fun with a few cash you can lose, fine. But casino gambling involves risk. Its the exhilaration of potential success. Also, that sensation is addictive. It impairs judgment, makes you chase losses, and puts you in danger.

Understand the game's mechanics. Always, the house is ahead. So casinos make money. Not understanding that will doom you. Responsible gambling is understanding risks and playing prudently. It implies admitting why you're gambling and your goals. Knowing when to leave. Protecting people from gambling addiction is crucial. That includes public education, resource provision, and industry fairness and responsibility.

Basically, yes, of course gambling can be one of the choices to find entertainment or pleasure, but actually whatever the activity and whatever your goals are, basically you still need to understand and know about what and how the activity actually is in the sense of making assessments from various sides, especially the negative and positive sides, is something that must be done by someone, especially prospective gamblers, because it is clear that in the end gambling is actually a choice that can destroy someone's life when they do it the wrong way.

Gambling can cause various changes to a gambler because of the many things that look tempting, and it has been proven that there are some gamblers who initially come for entertainment but end up getting caught up in an addiction where the process of change occurs without the gambler realizing it. And you have also said the right thing that if a gambler does not know and understand what they are doing, then in the end it will destroy their lives, so at least understand something right before getting involved.

On the other hand I think that it seems possible that addicted gamblers think that there is no increase in risk whatsoever when they try to make more aggressive decisions such as betting larger amounts or applying greed, whereas it is clear that the risk in gambling always depends on how a gambler makes decisions.

Gambling consists of multiple phases but the most famous is the win and loss stage. According to this blog, which is true, beginners starts out in gambling as winners, like Op did. But he thought he's made the decision to increase his wagering amount, that's not true, it's part of the winning stage process. From this chart, the increasing in his budget is caused by the wins he experienced in gambling, and the feeling that all is fine and that he can make it big through gambling.

If at all anyone must follow through this path you narrated, the person must be a successful gambler, otherwise, increasing your betting will not solve anything but put you in trouble. I often do what you narrated in my sports betting but dare not try it in the casino's betting, so it's all about your plan and current standing/status in gambling.

It interests me how gamblers switch techniques between slot and sport gambling. I'd bet you're a weekly sports bettor, that's why it won't affect your finances or cause addiction.

Well, this is not difficult to do, I have a different casino account from my sports betting account. It's good to do this so that the mind you are playing the two accounts will not be the same. Also, if you are not careful, you might be passing aggression on the sports betting simply because of what you experienced with the casino account if you use the same account for the two, so I avoid that.

And for the weekly betting remarks, I bet any time I see a match that interests me and that has worthy odds. At times, it could happen every day, and at times, it could happen a few days of the week, so it depends. As for addiction, it's not about gambling weekly or not, it is all about the mindset you are gambling with. If care is not taken, the person who usually gambles once a month can still be addicted while those gambling daily aren't.

By sharing our experiences to other people, that can helps them to learn from our mistake or our good experiences so they can have a better experience than us. We can learn together by sharing the experience so we can improve our knowledge in gambling which can useful to all of us when we playing gambling. Not just a beginners who can learn from the experience but all gamblers that thinks they need to learn more about gambling.

This forum have many members who always share their experiences, not just about win but also their lose so other people can learn what they must do to prevents the big lose. This forum also accommodate to all people who comes to this forum to learn how they can be a wise gambler and can improves themselves.

Because we're developing more than win and loss. Its about building a clever, intelligent, forward-thinking community. We're learning and gambling. Every wager, hand, and dice throw teaches us about risk, chase, and game psychology.

Money talks. Every dollar we risk tells a story. By studying these interactions, we learn about human behaviour, market trends, and society itself. This knowledge is worth more than a jackpot.

The underlying secret is that shared knowledge, not individual experience, matters. When we share our stories, strategies, achievements, and failures, we create a collective consciousness stronger than its parts. We challenge each other, refine our thinking, and push the limits.

if a gambler have the opportunity to share ideas of gambling with each other I think will make them to know their flux in gambling, the thing is that in gambling you have to know that their is not strategic way of making profits in gambling that people will learn, its open that gambling has to do with opportunity and when you have the opportunity to win in gambling you will not win, I have argued this same scenario with people, if gambling have a particular point someone can apply to be wining gambling consistently, so I know that gambling is totally base on luck and you can't learn it.

This forum is an important place to get information and there are many players who also participate in discussions on several online gambling platforms that are hype.
There are many discussions about how gambling features and some problems that may be quite annoying so that there will be a more serious response from the gambling side.

Always look at every gambling thread and many threads that discuss how their experience while gambling, what the tips are and what they will do when it doesn't go their way.

In fact, it is not just a hands-on gambling experience, but there are many contests and giveaways held by gambling platforms that give out quite large prizes. It is a great opportunity to make profits apart from gambling.

I decided to create this topic to seek the opinion of fellow gamblers. This post is my personal experience that leaves me with certain things I still do not understand till date. When I started gambling, I was doing it casually, not paying attention to how much I win or being desperate to win. Then I had great experience and I was winning and never under pressures. But at a point I realized I could actually make money from gambling and become extremely rich. Consequently, I increased my gambling amount as well as my targets but from this point onward, everything changed for me and it became extremely difficult to win.

What could be the reason for this case whereby I moved from winning easily to finding it difficult to win? Although a lot have changed for good after I did some adjustments to my gambling but I still cannot explain what happened to my gambling in the past.

You should have sticked to what had been working for you instead of increasing your stake, I think that had put in more pressure of winning big in you thus prompted you to take more risk unfortunately ended up in a losing streak, I believe small profit earned consistently would in a long run amount to reasonable profit therefore I think it's better you revert to the former and okd ways of winning consistently and erase the idea of becoming rich through gambling because that perception might lead to becoming an addicted gambler consequently lead to losing more of your hard earn money.

It is possible to win in gambling, winning usually depends on the gambler. Because the more strategy a gambler uses in gambling, the more likely they are to win from gambling, participate less in gambling, and engage in regular gambling. If a gambler uses the right amount of money, he will definitely get benefit from gambling, especially these strategies can be adopted by an old gambler, especially new ones who enter gambling only face losses in the beginning but as they gain experience in gambling, One can reap benefits from gambling

Maybe some gamblers can win using strategies from their experience in gambling. But I think gambling depends on luck, because I have a known gambler who has been gambling for almost 20 years and he also loses a lot. So experience and strategy are not useful at times in gambling, which depends on luck. No gambler can guarantee 100% that he will win this bet. All gamblers hope to win but only those who have good luck can win.

I don't know about strategy though, I mean it can make complicate things for a gambler if he has a lot of strategies and during let's say a game, how many strategies can you used? Obviously, it's one at a time and so I don't want to have many things in my mind when I'm going to bet.

I just look for the possible winning method and so it's should be very simple, and what others might have said, "don't overthink it", easy as that. For sure there could be gamblers that have a lot of experience under their belt about gambling strategies, but I think at the end of the day, or one or two can be used, just saying.

The underlying secret is that shared knowledge, not individual experience, matters. When we share our stories, strategies, achievements, and failures, we create a collective consciousness stronger than its parts. We challenge each other, refine our thinking, and push the limits.

That is if we can learn from many things from gambling. We will have more knowledge which can be useful for us so we don't make a mistake when playing gambling. We can also improve ourselves in gambling and will not use gambling excessively because we know that can gives big risks to us. When other people share their experience, we can learn something from that which we can use for our benefits.

We see many people lose their control in gambling without have a big chance to win so we must avoids that and keep learning about self control so nothing will tempts us to keep playing gambling. We learn about many things from gambling and sharing all we know to other people can helps them to fix what is wrong with them and we can also learn from their experience.

If people from the outside can learns from this forum, they will have much experience because we have so many members who have much experience and skills in gambling. They will share their experience and teach many things to those people so they will not gets any problem from gambling. By sharing much experience, we can improve ourselves and fix the mistake that we made before so we can be wiser than before treating gambling. 

They don't have to get the experience but they can also learn about the skills and the important thing is they can learn about controlling themselves when playing gambling. They will know how to handle gambling as a fun activity in their spare time so they will not too often for playing gambling. Besides that, many casinos here have contest and giveaways as you said so they can participate and maybe they will gets their lucky to win the money.

All gamblers hope to win but only those who have good luck can win.

Many players at the beginning of their gambler's path determine how much they want luck to influence their gambling. Therefore, many of them choose those gambling games that will not be strongly influenced by luck. Personally, I consider poker to be such games. But for example, slots, dice, roulette are very dependent on luck, and depend little on the player.

I decided to create this topic to seek the opinion of fellow gamblers. This post is my personal experience that leaves me with certain things I still do not understand till date. When I started gambling, I was doing it casually, not paying attention to how much I win or being desperate to win. Then I had great experience and I was winning and never under pressures. But at a point I realized I could actually make money from gambling and become extremely rich. Consequently, I increased my gambling amount as well as my targets but from this point onward, everything changed for me and it became extremely difficult to win. .

There are factors that have led to the changes you're experiencing and you need to reconsider them by reconciling yourself to your former gambling perception.

At first you were gambling casually - which means there were no  biases you attached to the potential outcome of your bets as you had no desperation for winnings.

You were enjoying the game as you gamble but that has changed because there is now a pressure you have placed on yourself to win at all cost which has made you to increase your betting amount ... The imaginary picture of getting rich through gambling that you have created in your head alone is sufficient to distort how you  gamble now, causing am in the view that you must have increased your risk just to make that huge pay to making you rich. The higher the risk the lower the chances of winning

You can't learn it, but you sure can master the emotions while doing it

When you started gambling, did you know games well? Were you in the process of learning? I ask you this because when I started gambling poker and blackjack, I was winning a lot while I didn't know the rules of these games, I was completely gambling based on my luck and even if it sounds strange to you, I was winning this way. When I learnt the game and started thinking and developing of strategies, my winnings declined.
My theory is that you win the game when you play with poor luck. When you build strategies, you start losing because mathematically casinos have an advantage over you and you can't beat math with math, you can only beat the casino with pure luck. That's my assumption from years of experience.

It's an interesting point that - dumb - luck, so to speak (no offense), would bring better odds and results. Did you try to turn off the analysis for some time and see how you would feel afterward in terms of playing and feelings?

I think you described a situation where there were many newbies, but in the end - is it good to rely only on luck? It is always better to have a strategy and manage your risks and wins, otherwise our fate will be given only to luck. And we will not know what awaits us tomorrow.
It is better to lose with a strategy, but to see the mistakes and correct them, than to let randomness rule the game.

I believe this is where you f*cked up OP.
At first, you aren't focusing on anything aside from the fact that you're just gambling and that's all then it all suddenly changed when you are winning continuously.

You became greedy that you changed your target and your reason why you're gambling at first place. You thought that your luck will continue until you lose it all. I believe it isn't the difficulty to win is the problem, but your intentions changed that you felt like it. Your main reason why you gambled change and you felt that it's very difficult to win. Greed changed it all. Your emotions got you. When you lost multiple times, you felt that you have a hard time winning, but it's just you and you ran out of luck. That's all.

Advice? Know when to stop, focus on your target, and don't be greedy because I know and you know how dangerous greed is for a normal gambler.
