How to practice emotional control in gambling?

[lixer]

If thoughts of self-control are constantly flying out of your head during the game, you can make a big note to yourself. For example, draw something large and bright on a piece of paper, it can be the word “Stop” or some symbol that will immediately remind you of control. And while you are playing, this note should always be in your focus. Accordingly, if your brain learns to react to the note in time, then there will not be any serious problems with the game and you will not have to over-emote. That's the idea.

What makes you think that the person wouldn't get rid of that note once they lose control? We know how people with mixed emotions behave; they get frustrated, angry, emotional, and they rage and out of that rage, they can do anything in the heat of the moment, so I don't think a sign saying "stop" can actually stop them from gambling because a single word written on a piece of paper wouldn't calm their nerves and it won't serve any purpose at that moment, it might even increase the anger of the person if they have lost a lot of money already.

In my opinion, self-control is not something that can be learned but a natural thing that comes with your nature as you grow up. It might also depend on your genes and we often tend to have some genetic qualities and properties inherited from our parents and elders, so if it's in your genes, you might have a calm and controlled nature, but if it's not, then it is going to be difficult for you to have a grip on it.

Practicing emotional discipline in gambling is about changing your mindset about gambling. First of all, remind yourself that you are not in control of the game, if you are into casino games always be mentally ready to lose because that's what these casinos programmed everything to do, they make more while you end up with nothing. always have it at the back of your mind that gambling cannot enrich you, don't be moved other people's wins, some are lies and some just got Lucky. It's all a psychological game and you can stay trapped if you don't control yourself.

Some people don't realize that the possibility of winning a huge amount of money in gambling means that the gambler was lucky to bet at the right time, and also staked with a big amount. The chance of winning is slim compare to the chance of losing but there are some gamblers that risk a huge amount and if they luckily use big amount and also hit a big multiplayer they win big but that's also how much they must have lost. One has to be knowledgeable about all of these first to know how to control themselves.

The player should certainly know a lot before starting to play, but we understand that players come only to test their luck, and neglect information about gambling and the most important rules that it is advisable to follow. I would even say that a player who has the knowledge and ability to control himself in games, even if luck is always against him, he will lose much less than other players. In general, luck before the game is at an equal level for everyone, so why not take advantage of at least minimal advantages by gaining knowledge and improving yourself as a player.

That's why the problem that usually happens to other gamblers is that they don't know the casino they are going to play at first, they also don't read or know the terms and conditions of the casino, and if they forget to do this, for sure when there is a problem, they will only find out that they have made mistakes because they didn't read the terms and conditions.

Then the only ones who often have problems with these are the newbies, in fact, it seems like only a few players who have been around for a long time actually have problems
in these situations that have issues.

in addition many newbies today don't read terms and conditions of the casino which it result to misunderstanding and disputes as a newbie player it should be more on a comfortable zone to bo the impact of understanding the terms and conditions of an casino, most time more research about the casino is expected before playing ensure first for reputation and been trustworthy.

I disagree with you on this fact that only newbies do experience challenge in gamble, whether you're a newbie or not definitely you most have a challenge. However, Challenges may not only come in that very expect you're talking about it can be from other aspects as the case may be, so the fact remains that whether you're a newbie or experienced gambler I want to tell you that some day you most definitely go through some challenges.

I assume we’re all mature and responsible gamblers here, but from time to time, we still make mistakes. One of the most common mistakes is failing to control our emotions, we know where that leads.. losses, and the higher the stakes, the bigger the potential losses we have to endure.

That’s why it’s important that before placing big bets, we are already emotionally stable and disciplined enough to follow our strategy consistently.

So, guys, how do you control your emotions while gambling? And how has it benefited you?

The initials of why emotions takes over us after placing a bet is because of the mismanagement of funds. When you’ve already wager an amount that you can’t afford to lose in a game, it becomes very hard that your emotions won’t come to play immediately the game kicks off and you’re waiting to see the result of it. Generally, when one is losing money, your emotions will come to affect your choice of game and you will begin to doubt yourself. When it now involves bigger money wagered into the game, you’ll be more concerned and want to close the game even without waiting to see the outcome of it. How to better control your emotions while gambling is to only use what you can afford to lose while waiting patiently for your game to play out.

If use less money on the gambling platform and accept gambling as entertainment, it is possible to control emotions. If you always try to make more money in gambling and earn money from gambling, it is never possible to control your emotions. If people have emotions in something, if we can control our greed due to any greed and we can be happy with less, then we will definitely be able to control our emotions. Moreover, if we do a big business of half-earning, then we will never be able to control our emotions. We will fall out of control from gambling.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Though it's too easy when you say you'll be following your set limitation but when you are already in it the pressure come up especially when you are in the losing side, you'll always finding yourself chasing your loses and trying to recover your money, you'll keep toping not realizng that it's just adding more with the amount of your lose money, but if you really can manage to limit yourself then it helps you a lot not let yourself getting addicted.

For those who can achieve the strategy at once it is something majestic, because they evidently have a very strong discipline, sometimes when we are beginning to apply this strategy we lose it easily because we follow our instincts , but here the most important thing is to have the conviction and enough discipline to say: "no more", when that is achieved we can say that that level will be unlocked and we will have a lot of control.

If someone considers gambling as entertainment and a small investment, then it is easy to control. If someone considers gambling as their basic and main income. The moment we start chasing big profits or harbor greed in our minds, greed or emotion corrupts our judgment and leads to risky decisions.

That conviction is hard to come when we're trying to stop and control our emotions.

I agree to you that it takes someone's discipline for them to be able to be good in handling themselves well.

But they can also justify that emotion when they're winning but as we all aware of, it is not going to happen at all times.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Very that a simple thing that you might be able to say or be able to heard up these advises on which completely stopping when you are in deep loses with gambling. Yes, you can freely play gambling as you do like without being addicted on which of course it will be just that depending on a certain individual since not all will be having that good sense of control when it comes to handling money on which majority will be having that kind of mistake on which they do go excessive when it comes to dealing or engagement with it. Practicing emotional control could be acquired through real experience but only a few are the ones will be able to commit out such learning or enhancing it out because majority will be falling out into addiction or having that sense of chasing up loses at the time that they are experiencing a series of loses.
Actually you can be able to apply out such aspect if you were really just that sensible into the things on which you are currently doing on.

One of the most difficult things in the world is to control emotions, because it is immersed in impulses and feelings and that is sometimes much stronger than reason, if the person is strong enough they can have control over some things, most of them, but there will be things that will make them break , it is always good to try to impose a lot of logic and reason on emotions, only then can you be stronger and establish some control, as human beings what makes us most human is that we feel and everything is in emotions.

[rachael9385]

I couldn't say if I could completely control myself at all times because I tried and still failed. Maybe I think this is a normal situation of being a human being. And I don't find any solution to this but to accept it because whether we like it or not, that can really happen. In fact, sometimes I blame myself, but I have nothing to do with other than accept the fact that I live this way.

For several years that I've been doing this, I have had no plan to change the way I gamble.

It's human nature to try and fail, failure can be a sign that you are making a change but it might only take a while. Many gamblers deal with relapses after staying away from gambling for a while, this is because they focus on quitting which is not possible to do within the first few months, what you are supposed to work on is reducing your engagements In gambling by doing this your interest in it will start fading away as time goes on. Change takes time and consistent effort.

Not going to happen all the time, though it's true when you are in the winning side you may think that you will keep repeating your wins, greed controlled over and that's a hard fought inside you, though some experienced gamblers are good on it but more on the side of being decieve by that kind of mindset and after a long gaming they ended up losing their bankroll and regrets always comes out after suffering with the lost and that unfortunate experienced that really wrecking up their chances to win.

[Litzki1990]

If you feel emotional about such important matters then I tell you that you have not yet become a complete professional person. Emotions Children's actions do not really match emotions in adults. If you look at the CEOs or the chairmen of big companies, if they had given more importance to their emotions or if they had depended on their emotions, we wouldn't have seen them be so successful. Now when it comes to gambling, if you rely too much on your emotions and can't control your emotions, you will end up losing a lot of money by gambling and this will hurt you financially. So control your emotions and use your conscience and intellect and you will see your life change.

It is difficult to control emotions, that is true, but you can learn to control yourself if you think ahead about how you will act in case of a big loss, and if you stick to it, then at least you will be able to protect yourself from unnecessary losses. But it is impossible to get rid of emotions in gambling, as soon as you start playing for big money, it will start to be felt even during the bet, and will increase even more during the match (or game), so if this bothers you, then play for small money, it really is much easier to play.

People cannot suddenly get rid of something completely, it is never possible, to give up a habit, a man must gradually reduce that activity. Gambling is a subject whose temptation is very deep, that is why it is not easy to get rid of this temptation. If someone gambles regularly, then he should reduce the amount of money he gambles with every day, secondly, he should gamble 1 day after another, that is, if you gamble today, do not gamble tomorrow. In this way, you have to gradually reduce the amount of gambling, it will be a matter of many days. By keeping these things consistent, you will gradually reduce the amount of gambling and at some point you will have to get out of the temptation of gambling.

Hmmm, how can I control my emotions? I guess it will all comes to your mindset.

If you don't think too much about the money that you can lose in your gambling, you can set aside your emotions, and will just feel nothing. I mean that's what I'm feeling that's why I can say that I can control my emotions when I'm gambling. I don't care about losing my money because I'm only using money that I can afford to lose. I guess in that way of thinking, you can control your emotions since for most of the time, gamblers are becoming emotional whenever they're losing money that's why they're putting big bets, and this happens when they lose money, and they want to recover it.

How has it benefited me? It prevents me from spending too much money unto it. It prevents me from spending way higher than what's intended.

First, the person must know how much they are willing to lose because in gambling, losses are a must experience and before you even allocate any amount to gambling, you should already make sure that the money is something that you will lose without shaking. When you go ahead to gambling with a huge amount that you know too well that it will make you to feel so angry after you lose it, then you are not doing yourself any good but harm. That's why sometimes, I say that people are the cause of their own problems.

I can't say with certainty that I can control my emotions, especially since it's easy to plan to control them, but it's really hard to actually control and refrain from them. I have lost money by participating in gambling many times and have tried to control myself from gambling many times. Although I was able to abstain for a while, at some point I could not control myself completely. I may not have complete control now, but I have been able to control myself to some extent when it comes to betting on gambling and losing money like before.

I am one of those who think that when we do an Activity we should not give up , sometimes some situations in life are Difficult , not only in the game, but I believe that a person should never give up , every failure Teaches a lot , there is always something to learn , always a concept to mature , but we should not give up as long as we do responsible gaming sessions with limited money to avoid problems in our lives.

I totally understand your point because i do feel very emotional and get angered by my lose but recently I don't really get all emotional when I lose cause first off before I place a bet I do acknowledge that the possibility of winning is 50/50 and i cant be very successful every time, it helps me bet with what I can afford to lose knowing fully well that I'll be very hurt like before If I don't gamble responsibly. Also, abstaining from it for a while helps alot cause a gambler won't indulge on unnecessary bet cause they're trying recover losing streaks, it would also help a gambler restrategise on possible ways to avoid numerous losing streaks, however if a gambler understand that they can't beat the house, then bet with spare money then they feel very emotional when they lose.

Control can be in not betting more than you can lose in one day of play, although I think that such a loss will still affect my emotional state, but stopping would already mean controlling the situation. For me, it also works well when I know that I make all several bets per day and regardless of the result I do not bet anymore, it is somewhat similar to controlling the daily budget.
