Gambling Budget

[Cryptmuster]

My gambling activity can completely depend on the season, if I have a lot of orders, then I have almost no time for anything else, so I can bet very rarely, even once every few weeks, if I have more time I can bet several times a week, the budget is also completely different, sometimes I can bet a few bucks just to watch the match, if I am more confident in the outcome then I can bet $10-20, I try not to bet more because my bankroll is not that big and I am not as passionate about gambling as I used to be. It's just that when you're able to earn much more with your business, everything else is perceived as entertainment.

Gambling is entertainment from the beginning, but even when you are getting fun you mostly plan how much you ready to spend. But if you make 1-2 bets pre month with bet size about $20, of course it doesn`t need some special planning.

🎯 Budgeting is the real MVP when it comes to gambling responsibly.

Some gamblers don't think it is important, but rather think it is nonsense. They only know when they have already compromised their finances.

I treat my gambling budget like a "subscription" — I pay myself a monthly "fun allowance" and once it’s gone, it's game over until next month. 😅
It honestly makes betting way less stressful and way more fun, because there’s no pressure to chase losses.

Well, not all have that kind of thinking. We're supposed to say that gambling is just for fun and entertainment, but what we see in other gamblers is that they are doing this for money. I will not blame them either because those who are hopeless and are struggling hard with their living find gambling as a solution. In fact, some of my neighbors enter gambling for that sake, but sadly, instead of seeing them improve, I see them getting poorer.

Inasmuch as that’s true. The honest truth remains that gambling can be very addictive and someone who starts off with the intention on only spending quite a little amount, might end up doing the opposite, this is the nature of gambling, especially for those who have not really mastered the act of self control. And this is why it’s important to employ some precautionary measures and tactics such as budgeting and of course sticking to those budgets because that’s the easiest way to avoid being caught up in the situation of gambling beyond one’s means.

I completely agree with you and my bankroll is not that big it is about 40 dollars a month. And lately I try not to bet so much money. I play only when I feel like it and when I am busy at my main job and the thing is that I don't understand how others discuss how you can constantly allocate a certain amount for a deposit. Maybe this is an addiction to gambling because an Independent person will not constantly spend money on it.
In general, there is a certain month of the year when I absolutely definitely bet money - this is the time when the World Cup starts, that's when I find it interesting to watch it and I like to place bets at this time.

Many players, especially those who have just started keeping a gaming budget, should understand that it is very easy to lose it, even if they will follow all the rules very stubbornly at first. Because there may be situations when a player breaks down one second after an accidental loss and starts making uncontrolled bets, as if a mythical creature has entered into him. I have been through this, so I know how difficult it is to keep a gaming budget, especially for a long time or on a regular basis, because the desire to stop following it and make big bets can appear out of nowhere.

We can defitely say that gambling budget and setting out should be the main priority of a certain gambler on which this is where you should be that finding yourself shows whether you are that good when it comes to moderation and control. One of the reasons on why gamblers do end up miserable on which this is just that because on the time or moment that you cant be able to have that control when it comes to spending then this is where shit thing do happen. Everything that do involves about money making or chance or having the opportunity on which you can potentially earn then there's always those times that you do think up easily that you can be able to obtain up such thing on which it causes up for you to become desperate. Always be that make use of the amount on which you can afford to lose on which at the time or moment that you've been that become that experiencing up some losing streaks on which you can be able to stop yourself do able to experience just because you do have that kind of control on which anyone do really failes on doing so.
Gambling is highly addictive and if you arent that good when it comes to self control and moderation specially on money then you are bound to experience the worst. Majority will be coming into this kind of phase that you've been that become that too positive that you can make easy money but once that reality would slap into your face then you do definitely be able to realize on how things do deal up accordingly. Play into the amount on which it is just that an extra amount that in case you do lose it all on which you can just that easily move on and not be ending up on depositing into the same amount just because you are trying out to chase those loses or you are trying out to make money on which this cant be easily possible when dealing up on gambling space.

There is no one rule for everyone, because each player has his own comfort levels, for someone a backroll of $50 is already a lot, and for someone a bet of $10 is a common thing, so everyone should build a game according to their capabilities. And you do not need to try to increase the bankroll due to victories, withdrawing winnings should also become a habit, even with small money.

The amount that you're losing and also losing your mind is the same amount that another gambler will be using as stakes for one bet. Not many people have the same financial capacity to spend as others are spending because there are some gamblers that'll have the money but still don't have the mind to be taking or risking large amounts. Our gambling budget should be based on our gambling strengths because if you're depending on others to make your prediction, it's going to worry you and make you to become a constant loser. After winning, it's better to adjust your budget so you can add some of the profits to your bankroll to help you play more and get better chances because you mightn't win as you did but then you'll have more money to keep trying.

Those are gamblers that have been used to it and about to become addicted.
If they constantly distribute money to their bankrolls because they can afford to.
But there are some that can't really afford it and that's why they're starting to notice it too late and so, what you do is fine. Allotting that small amount per month and sometimes you don't even bet due to busyness.

Everything has a saturation point, including gambling. It is a lie if we are always excited when doing repeated gambling because it is only an obsession that we want to do so that in the end this kind of thing becomes like a demand. I also sometimes do this because in some moments I am always motivated to gamble, but on the other hand when I am quite tired and busy with the work I do sometimes I can also forget about gambling even for some time.

So in this case I would say that gambling is not really a reference for me and I could stop from it but for now I certainly won't do it. It's not that I can't but I don't want to stop it at the moment because I still feel that gambling especially being in a sportsbook is still a part of me enjoying some of the matches that happen.

~OP~

After a few big losses a few years ago, I imposed restrictions on myself. They concern both the budget allocated for gambling and the frequency of gambling sessions. I try not to gamble more than once every two weeks and do not spend more than $100-200 per gambling session. In my opinion, this approach helps minimize the likelihood of becoming gambling addicted. Sometimes I adjust my gambling budget, but this is more likely to happen spontaneously when I am driven by greed or emotion. Unfortunately, I have never learned to fully control myself.

[Franctoshi]

Or how do you set your budget in the first place, do you do it monthly or weekly or it is per session?

I get a salary from my job monthly. But I only allocate a little for gambling. I often spend the results of the signature campaign on gambling. But if on a certain weekend there is a moment when I am very excited to bet but the balance in my account runs out, I have a budget that I can use. I am not a gambler with big bets, because I know my financial ability and what I can bet. If I bet too much, of course, it can mess up my finances.

That's just the way to go about gambling, good you're sticking to your plans, and that's what you can do to stay longer, if you know you can't afford to lose it don't even risk it. The resultant effect of not setting up a budget is that, it can take you five years backwards the day a big lose will hit you and it usually be like a movie, that it will become too late when you must have realized your mistake and what you should have done in the first place to stay protected in case of a day like that.

What? I think this approach to the gambling budget is quite appropriate. To be honest, I couldn't even think about it. Now I will take into account this method of allocating funds for games. I will consider it as a monthly subscription. This will allow me not to go beyond what is permitted and not to affect the family budget, which is now simply untouchable.

For me, this is the right approach. We don't need to pour all our savings or payroll into one bet or two. Just put a bit of money in for betting when you are free to also watch the game, because that way you will also be entertained by taking a bit of risk while watching it.

In my case, I love watching basketball, and since it's almost every day, I will have to plan a budget that will not ruin my financial capacity.
Putting $3 - 5 per game should be enough, and there are times I would win some good money to cover the next budget. Still, there are losses that cannot be avoided, and this is where we must think whether we should just take a day off and wait for the next budget to come. It should become a discipline to do so.

Most gamblers, before they have time or become addicted or fall  in disaster, they can't understand the right thing. They do not have the ability to understand reality, and ignoring reality, they continue gambling as a means of earning money. Which gradually becomes a cause of disaster for them.
The most sad thing is that even if we want, we cannot make a gambler realize the right thing before his disaster, if we tell them to gamble with a small amount of money according to their ability to lose, they will easily ignore our words. Because they always want to win big and try to gamble with as much money as possible, because at that moment they are addicted to gambling and deviated from reality.
If we do not maintain the right humanity, responsibility and limitations in gambling, it will be much more harmful.

Same as myself who is exactly like you with me has experienced a big loss that also made me realize that gambling is something that must be done reasonably, that's why now I gamble with limits set with the budget and time that I use for gambling so as not to overdo it.
But once in a while you have to be able to gamble with full awareness of self-control, this also allows you to gamble reasonably, and avoid greed or emotions that can make things messy.

I understand you. I`m not gambling man, but even i wanted to increase bet or make additional bet, when something was wrong. As for me, having strategy and some rules more important than budget. With rules you control yourself and can make some changes during the game. And with only budget you just lose it and game is over. Until next try.

Allocating funds for gambling is better than spend too much money without limitation. You can not just use the money without think about your daily needs especially if you have family. We know that some of them using their own money to gamble and expect to win in gambling. But they can not win easily as the casino will not let them win. If you can manage the allocation funds for weekly or monthly, you will need to stick to that and not trying to add more money. Playing gambling need limitation and not a source of income so we must understand that we can only have fun in gambling.

$100-$200 per gambling session for me is too big already. And maybe if I play that amount and losses (just like what happen last Monday, me and some of my friends decided to play on landbase casinos and I lost more than $200), then I should be like quiet for the rest of the week as I have to work hard again and earn that kind of money in my regular job. So it's not that easy to lose that amount of money, but that is gambling though, I mean you take that risk and go into the unknown and hope for the best output that you will win and at least double our money. But it's not the case for me so I'm out for the remaining days.

[hyudien]

This is simple and quite common and I am sure every gambler who has been gambling for a long time will budget for their gambling activities, I take myself as an example, I allocate my monthly salary for example 10% and this is divided into 4 sessions or 4 weeks so in 1 week I will gamble 2.5% of my salary. Note that each percentage cut will have different results depending on how big/small your monthly income is.
The point is don't gamble from what you can afford, remember gambling is for entertainment not to earn income in the long term.
