Responsible, and Safe Gambling.

[Proty]

That's the worst part of everything being delusional that you're a lucky person, that you could repeat the same thing in a luck-based game. That kind of feeling could destroy everyone, especially those who doesn't have self-control and awareness what could happen. Those who are being death trapped by this mindset are easily controlled by their own emotions, they have poor decision-making and isn't financially literate. If you know you can't handle things, better to stop gambling because it isn't for you, it'll just ruin yourself. Believing yourself won't change a thing or increase the odds so please be careful always in gambling.

Yes, this is a mindset I really do not understand among some players. They think that if luck visited them once or twice, it will now always stay on their side. Personally, I do not really believe in luck as some kind of entity that comes to certain people. For me, it is more a combination of circumstances, sometimes random, sometimes so subtle that they cannot even be properly analyzed. And how could anyone possibly reproduce such a combination of circumstances? That is simply impossible.

such players don't believe it was actually luck that made them to win but they feel there winning is as a result of there gambling skills. Those that understand how gambling works will eventually know that there winning is as a result of luck and the fact they were lucky to win the first time doesn't guarantee winning there next bet. No gambler is highly favoured to always be lucky at all time.

Most gamblers are of the opinion that when they win they have received the good luck and that is the way gambling goes. The results in most games are random and past victories have no influence on further performances. Players also feel overconfident when they feel that they are being lucky and they tend to seek the same winning mood. This normally causes emotional judgments and greater losses. Responsible gambling refers to the ability to know the risk involved, to establish limits and know when to quit. Gambling, as a source of income, should not be regarded as a sure thing at the end of the day, but just as a form of entertainment.

I honestly don’t understand what kind of “skills” people are talking about when it comes to gambling. What skills could there possibly be in slot games or roulette? There’s really nothing to develop there except the ability to limit your own bets. You could maybe talk about skills in sports betting, but even there it’s more about experience and familiarity with a team or a particular player. And even that still doesn’t guarantee a successful outcome.

It’s not that they don’t understand; they’re just too confident and ignore the possibility that the next bet could be red. They are aware that there’s no such thing as continuous green, but since they are on a green streak, they think it could extend a bit more before they stop. Emotions change depending on what is currently going on in your session. Of course, they don’t want to stop their momentum because they know luck is hard to come by. Later on, when it’s already too late, the realization of their mistake finally sinks in.

I think you are right about what you mentioned, but it still depends on the category of games they choose, like the games in slot games where we know that pure luck is really the reason why all gamblers win here, and there is no doubt about that.

However, if other gamblers play poker games, I don't think I can say that luck is the only reason for those who win here in poker games because skills are needed here,
in my opinion, and even in sports betting, in my personal experience here.

There is no skill in those slots and roulette. We can only see small skill in Crash games and the skills is, your timing to fly the jet and you calculation to hit the play button. You can't just fly the jet without making some observations and timing. And for sports, you have to know which of the team is stronger and the out performing in their previous games.

To me it is a bit like human psychology, Because when people win a couple of times, they tend to think that they have good luck today. But in fact most gambling results are entirely random, with no link at all between previous wins and next results. The issue occurs when people get too confident because of this feeling, so in my opinion it is not right to think of gambling as a way of earning money, If someone does play it is very important to see it only as entertainment and know your limits.

The truth is that there are winning streaks and losing streaks, and everyone prays for a winning streak but the problem is that no one really knows when the streak would end, and this can be essentially dangerous to the gambler, because during a winning streak, just as you’ve rightly said, the gambler becomes quite comfortable and confident that it may likely continue in this way, so even when the trend ends, this confidence can make them keep pressing on even when the streak is already over, and before you know, they end up losing both their wins and others.

Even with the crash game, there's no real skill in it, there's no strategy that works for it, it's just like other game for me, you probably might have a different experience but for me, it's one of my favorite game and there are some strategies that I have tried on the game, such as waiting for a few failed rounds and then go in with the hope that that round will become successful since the previous rounds failed. All the strategy I tried didn't work.

The types of games are different and in some games there is no complete skill and it all depends on luck, while in the case of sports betting, we have to make decisions by considering the past performance and current performance of the teams and this requires skill. And this is why we have to keep the right mindset in different things like slots and sports, and we have to make decisions according to the type of game. But since nothing is certain, So ultimately, we must be mindful of our ability to lose. But where there is no skill, we certainly cannot do anything excessive.

Most games like slots and roulette are not skill based just like you said, the results are random and winning is based on luck but crash games are also the same thing, you cannot really know the right timing to fly because winning is based on luck. The only casino game games that you are skill based are poker games.

Whether the player belief it or do not belief it, that will not change the fact that luck have been helping majority of gamblers to make quick money from betting. By the time such gamblers starts thinking that it is by his power that he is making big profits from gambling, it won't take too long before he will realize that gambling is not fun at all. For you to be profitable consistently, you must know what you are doing and that do not literally means that you are not going to make loses from gambling.

In cases where it is possible to solve the problems through various strategies and analysis, a person can change his luck by working hard, but where it is not possible to predict something with 100% certainty, it is not possible for anyone to change his luck. Here, it is wise to keep yourself in control, reduce the amount of bets, test your luck and enjoy the games, but not everyone can do this because the activity of gambling games is such that everyone's mind is hypnotized and, losing control over themselves, they use a large amount of money there to get rich by winning big quickly. But this thing works the opposite for almost everyone. And a gambler understands these things only when he loses everything and has nothing left to lose.

You are absolutely right, there is absolutely no skill of any kind in crash game, crash game is simply the same type of game category as slot games, the only difference is that slot games are games owned by third party game providers while the crash game is a casino's in-house game. But both games are strictly luck based games..

From my own personal experience playing crash game, there is absolutely no strategy that actually works, there is absolutely no type of skill deviced and practised on the game that will save you from losing money if luck is not on your side. So, we can actually conclude and agree that this is also a luck based game just as slot games are, it's just the feel, the mechanic/game style that is different due to the fact that crash is a casino game and not a third party provider game.

Have you really played Crash games before? Because if you really do, you supposed know that, you don't just press the fly button any how.

Do you understand those figures. That is were the strategy comes from and a friend of mine told me something of another calculation. In my own experience though or is not like poker and football but there is a mini strategy in crash game. And it is hard for you to get. If you loss, you have to re-strategize before playing again by doing some calculation on the figures above. There are other ways.

It is also possible to realize quite quickly that you are losing money in gambling and this can happen any moment. I am very skeptical about the phrase “making money from gambling” because it implies some kind of regular activity. In reality, no one wins consistently and losses inevitably accompany every player. Yes, some people manage to stay in profit despite losses, but it is still not a series of continuous wins that could realistically be considered a stable source of income.

There are many articles online on how one should gamble responsibly, but are there any success stories of people who've successfully stopped gambling after following any advice mentioned in those blog posts?

For example, Responsiblegambling.org offers multiple posts as to how one should gamble, the impact of gambling on youth, and a lot more.

Impact of Gambling Official Blog Post

If You Could Lose, Why Would You Risk It?

There are other reasons people gamble too. Sometimes they gamble to socialize, or to relax, or to distract themselves from other things they have to do, which is never a good reason. Some people also see gambling as a form of entertainment, like going to the movies or watching a hockey game.


When emotionally unstable, you shouldn't risk a lot, even during that time. I have thought of mentioning this post here. Whoever finds it useful should read it.


I want to hear more ideas about how someone stops or controls their gambling habits.  

Well, people say about responsible, safe gambling, but i believe there is nothing like it. When one gets involved in gambling, he gets carried away after some time and starts making mistakes. Even though, he has just started gambling as a fun and entertainment, as he goes on he can't control his emotions. Ultimately, he gets addicted in gambling and starts playing more and more and losing a lot of money.

For you to be profitable consistently, you must know what you are doing and that do not literally means that you are not going to make loses from gambling.

It's good not to lose your way because you think that when everything is going well it will continue to go well, and that's not the case. In any casino game, at any moment, a large sum of money can disappear just like that because the key is that controlling your money should be paramount. Emotions can arise, but without money there's no fun. In any case, the risk of losing is always present in the casino.

I think someone can adapt responsible gambling and safe gambling. I know, emotion very easy to distract the goal for responsible gambling. But, after several mistakes, i believe someone able to evaluate himself from bad gambling habit. responsible gambling is not easy, we know that. However a lot of gambler here (in forum) or out there can be a responsible gambler. after they are able to control himself from bad gambling activity.

Many gamblers confuse outcome with skill when they win a few times in a row they begin to attribute results to personal ability instead of probability this is where overconfidence starts building and discipline begins to weaken. In pure chance based games no amount of effort can shift the mathematical edge the house advantage remains constant regardless of previous wins or losses believing that luck can be controlled or extended is a cognitive bias not a strategy. Even in games that involve some level of analysis like sports betting long term profitability is extremely difficult because uncertainty can never be removed completely no prediction model delivers one hundred percent certainty variance will always exist.

The danger begins when a player starts increasing stake size after a few wins assuming momentum will continue that psychological shift from cautious play to aggressive play is often the turning point where small gains are erased quickly.
