How to play without taking too much risk?

[Eternad]

that is why you can see a gambler having a combination of more than 10 matches on a single slip to be able to win big while using a small amount of money, which is another risk on itself, because they are not taking into consideration what those small amount of money could worth when sum up together over a long time, except we chose to gamble for fun.

They are big if you sum up but do you consider the chance of profit in case the bet with huge odds win?

Even 1 win out of 20 losses is still good if you are chasing odds above 20. The advantage of doing this strategy is you have a lot tries on your bet due to small amount while profit potential is high once you hit.

You are taking chances of winning on multiple bets.

so I came to you to ask for tips or even advice? Can you help me? 

It's simple, don't think that you are gambling to make money, just think that you are gambling just for entertainment and most importantly limit the budget for this activity if you have a monthly or weekly income, just allocate money that you have been able to afford from the start, don't exceed that limit, if basic things like this still scare you, then you shouldn't gamble.

Your State of mind when gambling is very important, if you focus on making profit it might get you addicted...Most gamblers put in too much hopes in gambling, the main reason why people take a lot of risks is the reward they expect.. it's quite stupid to stake all you have just because you are in need of money... gambling when you are broke is a bad idea, it's not meant to give you Money for emergencies.

It's simple, don't think that you are gambling to make money, just think that you are gambling just for entertainment and most importantly limit the budget for this activity if you have a monthly or weekly income, just allocate money that you have been able to afford from the start, don't exceed that limit, if basic things like this still scare you, then you shouldn't gamble.

The easiest way to reduce risks in gambling is to lower the bet, and limit the budget per day, week and month. I agree with this, this will be the easiest and most effective way that will work for any player who can adhere to it for a long time. No exceptions for individual bets, and then the risks will be low and the loss will be perceived without unnecessary emotions and disappointments. To earn money in gambling, you need a very large bankroll, and if money is limited, it is better to do this for fun.

Lowering your bet will definitely help you to reduce the risk on losing in gambling but it will also stop you from winning big when you get to your lucky day. Also limiting the number of times you gamble is another thing you need to consider If you want to reduce the risk because the higher you gamble the higher your chances of losing in gambling.

Being lucky in gambling is not determined by the amount you invest in gambling if you have a huge amount you can still spend all without being lucky so just use a budgeted amount to gamble.

Lowering your bet might help but this could only that slows up down your overall situation on busting up those funds in the end and this is indeed the reality. This is why it will be that not much of difference if you do still think that you are lowering up on the risks that you are trying out to put on at the moment that you do play up gambling. If you dont want to deal up with high risks then its better not to gamble at all, but if you do insist out on playing just because you do wanted to have some fun and entertainment then its your call and thats why its important that you should be that accepting up your fate at the moment that you do play gambling no matter what you are dealing on with whether with sports or casino games on which there's a risks of losing those money. Play for fun and entertainment on which you should be that thinking that those funds are meant to pay up with the leisure that you are getting on which on this way then you wont be finding up yourself that impulsive if ever you would be losing up your money. Its better that you shouldnt be trying out to think up that you can milk out gambling because this is where it do makes yourself that being desperate on doing so. Its important that you do need up to consider on whats the real deal up with this because on the time that you've been becoming that too desperate then it will be causing up that kind of condition on which your actions will be getting in line with it. So therefore you should be that mindful about into the actions you are taking if you do wanted to keep safe on total devastation when it comes to finances. Usually people do made out some actions at the time that they are experiencing unfortunate conditiosn whereas they could be able to stop it earlier if they were just that sensible on what they are doing. Usually this is the moment that you could be finding yourself that not minding up that much because you've been that consumed by your greed on which this is usually the case for most gamblers or bettors. If you dont want to face up some risks on losing money then its best that you should be stopping gambling in the first place and trying out to avoid and deal up with other things that doesnt involved money.

We know that playing is very afraid of risking what we have, but are you afraid of risking everything you have? Or do you have your value and strategy limits? I'm starting to bet now and I'm a little afraid of what I should do, so I came to you to ask for tips or even advice? Can you help me? 

When it comes to gambling, you shouldn't be afraid. You should participate in gambling with the same amount of courage that you can afford to lose. In gambling, you have to participate in gambling with two possibilities: either you lose or you win. In this case, you must overcome fear, otherwise you will never be able to perfect yourself in gambling. You need to have a goal in gambling, why are you gambling, especially if you are aiming to win money and if you expect to make a profit on every bet, then you have deviated from the rules of gambling. You need to remember that with every bet you can have a profit and a loss.

This idea is correct. However, there are still a lot of people or gamblers as we say, that are still aiming to get good profit even it means they're risking their payroll. I have seen a lot of people who's been broke but still pursuing gambling in hopes to hit the jackpot sometime in the future.
I'm not sure what's their motivation behind all these, but its's just too pitiful that most of them are a family man. They are not actually destroying themselves, but destroying their children's future as well.

This guy needs to start betting and beat the phobia than asking how it going to look like by staring at the bookmarkers, I know it's his first time but he has to start from somewhere at least starting with the little amount that he can afford to loose, also having someone that can mentor him every time he wants to place bets would be extremely good as well.

I think that for such players the main goal is no longer to hit the jackpot but simply to win back what they lost before. And in gambling this becomes a huge trap when you focus only on trying to recover your losses. People who cannot accept their previous defeats and just move on will fall into this trap and constantly chase their losses. But if they have already experienced big losses before I doubt anything will change for them now. They will keep losing although what they really should do is just stop.

Dude you have mentioned a very important point. When we go to recover our lost money it is really a trap. We go to recover the money and invest big amount of money in gambling. In the end it turns out that we have lost all the money. I have seen many gamblers go bankrupt like this. They were very experienced. But even then they failed to recover the loss and lost all their money.

But I will mention one point that when we are too greedy it is also very harmful for us. Many times after winning big amount of money we think that our luck is very good today so we invest more money in gambling. And at the end of the day we go home empty handed. So I do not see any need to take extra risk in gambling. We should stop even after we win money and we should stop even after we lose money.

[TheUltraElite]

Actually making money is a normal thing to do, just that making huge sums of money in a short period of time might not be possible for everyone out there.

To be able to make money quick and easy, is everyone's wet dream. So this is like a pipe dream because, in reality it does not exist and all the things shown to you to make it seem like that are mostly scams.

Gambling on the other hand, is not a scam but a clever method to guise the difficulty in reaching a win with minimal attempts. Hence risk is always there but it is something you have to accept if you want the high reward. Do not forget that this is not the only way to make money.

The only way to play without taking much risk is to focus on the amount that you want to use for your gambling, it's the only thing that you have control over in gambling. You cannot control your luck when you gamble so it's better to have fun with amount that you can afford to loose. It'll be a very big mistake to see gambling as a business place that you are supposed to make income , there's no guarantee of winning in gambling. Some people that enters gambling out of financial needs will most probably lose the little that they have. Have fun in gambling, hope to win and expect loses.

Personally, I don't believe that those gamblers who are always gambling despite consecutive their losses, are not chasing their losses because if they win back their losses, they wouldn't stop gambling forever. Instead, they'll start thinking of winning big, which becomes a trap to gamblers in order for them to continue playing irrespective of their losses. A gambler that wouldn't let go of his losses, is gambling for profit.

Help you in what area exactly bud? First and foremost, you should not be gambling if you know you are not ready to risk and potentially lose the money you intend spending on your gambling activity, gambling is not really for everyone though it's absolutely open to everyone, I have a thread I created on this board some time ago where I asked a question, and the question was, "what is the essence of gambling when you are afraid you will lose your money".

One thing you may not understand is that what we fear often times has a way of finding itself into our life, for example, if you are always afraid of losing money in gambling, some how, you will discover you lose your money most of the time you Gamble.

So why not tighten up, harden your balls and gamble like a real man, simply make sure you are not betting with money you know you are not prepared to lose and can not bear if you lose it, gamble only with spare money you know you don't have a problem losing, and that fear will automatically vanish.

The great tragedy for a gambler is, "He wins once, loses again and again!" And these one or two wins are a trap to ruin their lives. A gambler must be very practical. He must have a lot of common sense and be careful around him. And he cannot be tempted by greed. Greed is the main reason for the destruction of a gambler. So a gambler must be very practical.

[Dunamisx]

It is important that we should know this as a fact, that everyone of us can choose to gamble responsibly, because it's lots of fun, but in doing this, we should be mindful of the risk associated to how we are gambling, because some of our gambling style could cause more harm to us than the fun we should be having, if care is not taken, we may see ourselves falling under the same conditions as others do when we don't check to know how we have been gambling.

You're in the wrong place if you're afraid to lose money. Certainly, no one likes losing, but there are ways to limit your losses. Set a clear budget and try to not exceed that, do not place all-in bets, a single mistake can cost you your entire bankroll. Gambling isn't for the faint hearted, if you haven't made up your mind that you're going to lose money, don't get involved. Start slow with minor bets, as low as $0.50 or $1 in games you like or sports betting, see how you react to your losses and proceed with caution.

Facts, Most gamblers break their own hearts by thinking that gambling is a means for them to always get returns without losing, if you are always getting your hopes high like this you are not really a gambler you are just being delusional. like you said, in order to build confidence start Small and as your mind gets developed over time then you can stake substantial amounts of money but you must still keep it moderate.

[nara1892]

Every gambler has different limits and readiness in dealing with the possibility of losing money, meaning that only you yourself know how much you are ready to lose, or you could also say that I cannot suggest how much you should allocate each time you start the game, the point is to gamble with the amount you are ready to lose and finally you must also really understand first that losing is something that is very natural in this activity.

Of course, I agree with you, those who think that gambling will easily bring them huge profits, they are going to face a big disaster very soon. They are stuck in a huge misconception, they don't even want to realize the right thing, which is the biggest mistake for them. If a gambler keeps gambling expecting something very big from gambling, he will never be able to achieve anything good, because you should never expect anything from gambling, it is a game of luck and uncertainty, where good luck will definitely be needed to get a good win. So there should be no excessive expectations for anything, and there should definitely be a limit to gambling.

We call that early traps from casino to gambler, most especially on in house games, the casino allow the players to win a few games and then after hit them with the heavy stroke, winning a small amount at first time is Sweet and a tempting start to continue gambling, but for wise gamblers, what is needed at that point is to lower your wagering amount in a bit to secure your longer playing time, so even when you lose a few vet along the line the impact of your finances won't be that much, and if the casino hand you out some winning you take them with good faith and in the end it's a win win so long as you walk away with something regardless of how small it may be.

Gamble only what you can afford to lose. that’s the key to avoiding unnecessary (High) risk.

Losing more than you can handle comes with serious consequences, especially gambling addiction, and once you reach that point, it’s hard to get out. That’s why prevention is important. Have discipline and don’t be greedy as that way, you can still enjoy gambling, even when you lose.

That notwithstanding, if anyone is finding it difficult to control it's gambling habits and you've realized that gambling is affecting you negatively,I think it's high time to advice and encourage yourself to retrace yourself backwards.You could do away with setting strict restrictions on yourself but if managing and minimizing the risks involved is becoming hectic,then consider a long term break as a gambler.

Gambling is not a means of survival, those who don't listen will always fall into the trap. Gambling has both negative and positive results, either to pick one or the other side happens. A person can also seek help elsewhere, some mental treats are not self-administered, i'm not calling a therapist as it may not be up to that level, at least there are people to help talk you out and also personal decision matters during the process of taking a different part from addiction.

That's what a casino does, you just can't beat them in gambling, it is always their world over yours and very difficult to hedge over them, let every gambler maintain absolute preparedness for every deposit they complete, if profited in the game time then see it as luck based instead of owning the casino.
