I'm already happy when my bankroll lasts longer...

[Botnake]

That's what I’ve been thinking lately because it seems really hard to win in gambling, no matter what game we're playing. In the long run, we still lose. So, I think this is our fate, instead of aiming for ultimate happiness through winning, which seems almost impossible, what’s achievable now is just making our bankroll last longer than expected.

So how about you? Are you happy with that, or are you ambitious enough to aim for a big win, and maybe long-term success?

[Oshosondy]

There are sometimes that I just go all in all at once because I use small amount of money to gamble. I can use the whole $5 to gamble at once just once in a week.

But there are sometimes that I will feel like gambling more and use $10 for it, using just $0.5 for each rounds. I have seen games that you can use $0.05 for each round which can increase the gambling time.

[Frankolala]

If you go all in once, it will affect you emotionally especially, when it's an amount that you plan to use to gamble throughout the week. It can make you refill your bankroll that same week if you don't forget about gambling for that week. This is why gambling with very little amount to enable you enjoy the fun and gamble whenever you feel like during the week is good. Having fun is the main focus and not aiming for profit.

In my case, I look at sports betting as just entertainment. I don't mind losing. I manage my bankroll well so that I can bet for much longer without having financial problems. For example, for this weekend's games, I made a parlay that contains 12 games. If you ask me what are the chances of me winning?

My answer would be: they are very low and I don't have any high expectations of winning.

The total odds for my parlay are @252.17, very high. But my point is that we always have to look at gambling as entertainment. Of course, we all want to be lucky enough to win a lot of money at once, but as long as we know that we have to manage our bankroll well and only use money that we can afford to lose.

When it comes to Gambling we must learn to put ambition out the window, in my opinion it only makes you more eager to win and this desperation can lead to addiction. If you aim to win big it's better to think of it on the basis of getting lucky and not from your bet strategy, there are no strategies that can make you win big you can only get lucky. When your bankroll lasts longer it comes with a satisfaction even though you are not winning much but it feels better to know that you aren't just throwing money away.

Its case to case basis since somehow not every time we would feel that way. For sure we still have this instances that we get frustrated especially if we lose  lots of money and we just prolong our game its because we either chasing winnings or trying to recover our losses.

Sometimes I'm happy with that, but we cannot deny the fact that frustrations would rely came especially if we lose everything we have. That's why better to have good money management to avoid getting any frustration and could possibly control our daily spending's.

There are times that I aim big then do this do this all or nothing schemes for thinking about that I can win huge. But its so rare for me to do that and will just do this actions if I'm totally bored.

If your aim is to seek happiness from gambling, I am sorry you might never get it. How will you cope those times when you loss for a long time, it might lead to depression. Although I am expecting a big win one day, I am not ambitious about it. For now, I am comfortable with my gambling activities because I am being entertained. Being ambitious can lead to loss chasing or gambling more than you can afford to lose.

What is certain is that I always do my best in gambling, I will still aim for games that have a good opportunity to play, I don't need a long time to last, it makes me unable to sleep because I think about the money.

Of course I am not ambitious to pursue something that is not certain to win, but we have a game that can be played to win, usually a big sport the opportunity to determine success compared to slots, poker and others.

I'm also happy when my bankroll lasts longer... I have had situations where I lose my deposit in 5 minutes, sometimes it takes a little longer, but it all goes away quickly. These are the moments when there is no luck, nothing goes right and almost every bet (on any game) simply falls flat. So definitely yes, I am happy when my bankroll lasts longer or even survives the day/night.

I have had some nice wins or rather a lot of them, but nothing extremely huge, I would like to experience that one. As for long-term success, I don't think about that...

[Darker45]

I'm not looking for a big win in gambling anymore. I've long accepted the fact that gambling is losing more than winning. Although winning is still what I'm hoping for every time I make a bet, just like you, it's oftentimes enough for me that I don't have to refill my gambling account's wallet all the time. The longer I make do with what little balance I have, the better. If that means I have to divide my balance to just a dollar per bet, that's all right with me.

[stadus]

I always aim to win as just lasting longer feels like a waste of time for me.

That’s why I don’t really focus on games like slots or other casino stuff where the house always has the edge.
I’m a busy person, so those kinds of games just don’t fit my lifestyle right now. Even with sports betting, I only pick a few games to bet on so I can really analyze them well. At the end of the day, the goal is always to be profitable.

It can be good for random games. If you have big enough RTP and small bet size you can play rather long. The main risk is to catch lose streak but if you bet is about 1% from deposit - your lose chances looks small.
Of course it is possible but mostly you will win-lose and it will be for a long time.
I use slots after hard day with minimal bet size just to rest. So i even don`t care about deposit, i deposit some small sum after salary, and play when i need it.

[Japinat]

If that’s your mentality, then you’re probably just in it for the entertainment.

Maybe you’ve tried to win before, experimented a bit, but eventually got tired of it because it wasn’t working out.
Honestly, that’s a good realization. It helps lower the risk of getting addicted. Less expectations = less stress, and that’s a smart way to play. I like your approach to gambling as you’re not desperate, just chill and in control.

I just don't have the bankroll to play casino games. I deposit an amount to last me a couple of sessions minimum (I'm talking about online casinos), if I hit a big win I withdraw, and if I end up losing it then after a while I deposit again. In the past I played poker and I did have a bankroll, but the goal was to win money, not to be happy if it lasted longer but I ended up losing it.

I don't see much point in having a bankroll for casino games, except maybe for what you do, that the money lasts longer.

[danherbias07]

Yes, if my 100 will last 2 hours, I am happy, while I am only betting on 1. The most special thing that could happen is if it is multiplied by 2 or 3, 200 or 300. That's when I get to be more cautious to bet, and I don't want to lose it too fast because of my greediness.

Let's face it, those who win double their initial deposit will sometimes try the "buy bonus" in slots. They want a quick reward, although it doesn't always happen like that. Most of the time, it will not give us anything because the system knows the money used is from them. I have learned my lesson the hard way, which is why I just grind and never buy the free spins.

I am not happy because my intention of gambling is to win (not necessarily a big win) and not to exhaust my bankroll when I gamble. Although there is this relieving feeling you get when you stay longer with your bankroll. The feeling of believing next time you will get luckier to win over the casino but without knowing, most time the casino does it as a way to make you think that way. They make sure you get some RTP while you are gambling while over time they win you. The smartest move is to stay away from the casino when you have stayed longer without winning. You don't necessarily need to use all your bankroll at that moment. If you give a another, try like in another 10 hours or more, you might be more lucky.

Thinking like you would undoubtedly contribute to the mental health of those who feel frustrated by constant losses. Furthermore, if you focus on extending how long your money lasts for betting, you are adopting a positive behavior that will lead to a more controlled and beneficial betting system for your wallet.

Same here! Bankroll usually makes the most sense in sports betting especially if you’re serious about it.

You set a decent bankroll meant for long-term betting, manage it properly, and stay disciplined. But for slots and other games with a house edge, you don’t need much. Just a small amount, and yeah, you’re kinda hoping to hit that big multiplier and flip it.

For me, I bet small on slots . If I win, I withdraw right away and add it to my sports betting bankroll. But honestly, the success rate with slots is super slim more like a lucky bonus than a real strategy.

My idea of enjoying gambling is hitting big win as much as possible. Making my bankroll longer is a bit dull for me because you can just play low house edge like dice if you want your bankroll to last longer compared when playing other casino games but ofc the experience will be boring unless you are farming wager.

We have different target goal and preference so I don’t blame you if you think this way after experiencing losses.

Don’t lose on aiming for big win because you will surely hit that at some point in the future. Just be positive.

If that situation occur then I think we already get satisfied on the game we play even if we lose our capital since prolonging on that time span is somehow a good indicator that we made lot of things while playing.

But we must see what result show up since if we already made our 100 to thousands or even close to that figure its also bad if we lost since since there's opportunity to get lots of profit on that situation occur already. But we can't dictate what other people like since if they like to play only the same as what you do  I guess profit is less much important and maybe they let the game roll and just want to satisfy their gambling needs until their balance get totally drain. I know someone doing it and so far he's fine and enjoying doing his thing in gambling sites where he gamble.
