Winning Can Ruin You Too

[Baki202]

This is totally true, winning is not a problem Rather greediness. Greediness is the reason why people often Chase after loses or chase after more wining and end up losing all. These factor are the main problem why people keep repeating same mistake. Greediness is the problem of majority of gamblers, if they can be contented with there win and pause or hold after wining and come back later, they would have done well but when greed has overshadow a person, it will make them not see reason to quit at the right time but keeps gambling and hopping for more when there is no hope for more.

And when it comes to winning, it has its own disadvantages. But the same time, it makes people want to have more because they feel there is more opportunity, and that is when they start doing crazy things. And when you talk about factors, it is true that one of the reasons why people want more money is because they have a record of winning, and winning is not a bad thing, but at some point, I feel things are going to be different because if you don't control the way you gamble, then you are just putting more pressure on yourself. We know we gamble to make money, but it is better to do it gradually so that you don't become addicted.

Winning is not the problem rather greediness is the main culprit that makes you pursue more to bet when you are already in profit.

I personally don’t view winning with negativity despite the example involved since I knew that it’s not the winning but greed. Losing or winning greed is the common factor why people lose in gambling.

This is totally true, winning is not a problem Rather greediness. Greediness is the reason why people often Chase after loses or chase after more wining and end up losing all. These factor are the main problem why people keep repeating same mistake. Greediness is the problem of majority of gamblers, if they can be contented with there win and pause or hold after wining and come back later, they would have done well but when greed has overshadow a person, it will make them not see reason to quit at the right time but keeps gambling and hopping for more when there is no hope for more.

During gambling, for example, if we consider the game in slots, a change of mood occurs in the gambler's head, and this happens very brightly and sharply. In fact, the brightest emotions change very quickly: despair from the fact that the deposit is almost lost, then hope when the bet increases and excitement, and when the increased Bet brings profit, returning the gambler's deposit + winnings, the gambler feels crazy joy, and continues playing. I do not know where else in life a person can experience such fast and bright emotions.

That hange in mood leads a gambler to overexcite themselves and instead of following their strategy or the patterns that they at first use, they suddenly become greedy and aim for more, and there where the casino will start to win against the gambler as greed leads to create mistakes and bad decision.

It will be more on the side of the house once the gambler already been attached that much either they are experience some wins they'll push for more then lose it back again.

Once you do have that kind of boost up then this what makes you that becoming that optimistic about that you can make even more winning on which we know that it cant be just that possible specially on gambling field or simply dealing up with a game of chance on which we know that we cant be lucky all the time. On the moment that you do make out some winnings then it would be best that you should be taken out those wins or making up some direct withdrawal at the moment that it do happens or you do have the chance. Never ever consider yourself to be that being lucky all the time because this would be that making you desperate when it comes into this aspect and later on those winnings plus with your gambling capital or bankroll would be that totally be losing it up all and this is always been the case on which gamblers do experience because they do made out themselves that delusional. Winning and losing on which these are the only two possible things that you would be able to encounter or be able to deal on with. Winning situation could give out that kind of emotion boost up and if you arent that good when it comes to control then you would continue on what you are doing.

One of the main things that could stimuli addiction is on the moment that you are winning up. Come to think that you might be able to experience long losing streaks and here comes that single win then those disappointment and frustrations will be wiped out in an instant. If you arent that good when it comes to emotion control then you will definitely be facing up some issues on which it will be causing up problems at the time that you would be exhausting up your budget or spend up a huge portion of your funds on which you shouldnt be doing in the first place. On a winning situation then you would be having that kind of positivity that you can be able to win up even further and thats why you have decided that you will be that playing even more just for the hopes that you can make even more on which this would be that a normal reaction for you to be able to have such situation and self control will depend or vary.

[Zigabel]

Greed will always lead someone to ruin, I think it can happen in all things, not just in gambling. Gambling with a small budget will make you fine, there is no pressure after losing, life can go on as it should, so there is no neglected responsibility. Winning will be the only thing that brings pleasure in gambling, but it must be understood that it does not happen every day. I think experienced gamblers will understand it very well, self control not to exceed the limit is the main foundation when gambling.

Self control is like an important if not the most important element in a man's life when he is doing almost anything, a man with great self control has conquered himself nd cannot  suffer addiction in gambling or every other aspect of live and so it is very important that as a gambler, learning to have that as a character is important so you do not suffer certain situations gambling.

Greed is another killer,  that slowly kills those suffering it, they never get satisfied and always going all in such that they may get bankrupt at some point while chasing their losses or money generally. Winning in gambling brings both pleasure and also brings sometimes can bring about some tension,  excitement and even emotional feel.

At the end of the day, it is on the gambler how he will take care of business. More than likely, most of us already experienced a lot when it comes to gambling, winning-losing and all the things in between. So there's no surprise if you know the repercussions of what you are doing. And by now, you should know what to do in order not to put yourself in the rabbit hole. As a gambler, you should not ignore the warning signs that you need to stop. Otherwise, you would have more problem later on. Do think of the fact that it is hard to get help from anyone, especially if you are talking about money.

[fruktik]

That can happen, and not only in gambling. I remember a story of a popular boxer who made a lot of money because he is good at what he does, and winning many fights. Years later, or when he is near retirement, he spends all his money on gambling, alcohol, and women. After he depleted all his money, he became poor again, living in the province and didn't even have a house of his own or any savings.

Anyway, you are right that a gambler can win millions and just switch to another addiction because he badly wants to spend his money on a luxury that he hadn't experienced before.

There was a time when I managed to win a decent amount of money in slots. Then I hit the daily jackpot and there was still money on the deposit. My happiness knew no bounds. What did I do? To please myself and stop gambling for a while, I went and bought household appliances for the family, bought a good mobile phone. Well, and a little more in small things. I am glad that I did not start playing again. I am sure that all this money would have been lost in a jiffy.

I am glad that I did not start playing again. I am sure that all this money would have been lost in a jiffy.

You did the right thing. I remember when I got my biggest multiplier of 13339x in a slot machine and got near 2000 dollars because I was playing with minimum bet. I did the same back at that time last year, bought a Playstation 5 and a new mobile phone and gave 500 dollars to my wife to spend for fun. I also kept playing the last 200 dollars in gambling in a vain try wanting to hit again something big which of course didn't happen at all. So when winning big it is a good advice to buy something you love or new home appliances if some of our main ones have become old enough like a new washing machine for example. If we keep playing even after winning big then there is only one way for us, south deep in the abyss of loss.

[summonerrk]

I don’t think winning is that dangerous, because if you win a jackpot, you will have more belief in gambling and may start gambling more often. To me, that is not caused by the win itself, but by your greed.

That is correct, when we are people who understand that when we are in a casino and we are lucky enough to win or if we win the lottery we must understand that we should not risk large sums of money to multiply, no we must take that money and invest it, the idea is to increase it in that way and take advantage of the luck that was had at that moment and things should be seen in that way , for that reason I always advise that when you win you Withdraw.

And this is the right step. Because if someone wins a good amount of money in gambling, he will be happy. He will be happy and will immediately come to an act on what this money can be spent on. But if this guy continues to play further, he can play this money, and then his joy will be in vain. In fact, such a gambler will deceive himself, because his joy means nothing if in a minute he can lose all the money that just made him happy. That is why I also always immediately withdraw money from gambling if I have a big win.

Mostly, here I hear about how dangerous loss is, it ends many lives and can put someone in big trouble. This is a clear issue, and people are protecting themselves from it. However, there is another thing that can also ruin one's life, and that is winning. Winning is the sweet and a pleasurable trap where you can stuck your life happily without knowing that it engulfs you until it comes to an end.

The purpose of making this thread is to share your experiences with others about how you lost and fell into this hidden and unknown trap. The second piece of advice is that whenever you win, keep that money and leave for the day before you lose all your money.

This is simply what we are being told in daily basis that loses are inevitable and winning sure is hard to come by and when you keep it going you end up being addicted. The fact that the negative side of everything is destructive mostly and the positive end as well can be destructive too basically when you're applying greed and at that point it's so difficult to stop playing .

A win always gives another hope, I see nothing wrong with winning. Sometimes a win after a losing streak of several matches can lift our spirits. But I also see nothing wrong with a winning streak, because usually they do not last that long. You can decide to continue playing after winning, or take the profit, it all depends on your mood and your strategy. I know that losses can put players in big debt, but I have never heard anything like that about winnings, so winnings are definitely good.

[Nwada001]

And also the winning money goes to the wrong place. Empty and uncontrolled spending, which can lead to other addictions. For example, it can be alcohol addiction. I read about one such case. One family managed to win a lot of money. Several years passed and people were surprised by what happened to them. They became drunkards and drank away absolutely all the money. It was hard to believe, but this also happens.

It's not hard to believe for people who have seen it happen around them; it's only hard to believe when the people who read about it still have not had a one-on-one encounter with them. I have also seen someone who was a bit off behave better, not addicted to anything, but suddenly changed due to the type of money he was lucky to win from gambling.

Now he can afford all the types of lifestyles he might have been dreaming of, which uncontrollably consumed him. Now, seeing the guy on the street, for those who don't know his story, might not even know such a person has seen millions (Naira) in their life before due to the level he's currently at.

We know we gamble to make money, but it is better to do it gradually so that you don't become addicted.

Opportunities often come to each of us depending on the situation we're experiencing. We almost always fail to recognize them and continue to persevere in what we believe is right.
Winning a good win is a rare opportunity, but you shouldn't focus solely on that; you risk becoming stuck in the moment.
Trying your luck is fine, but challenging it is foolish!
If you win a good win, take advantage of the opportunity to create more; if you don't, take advantage of the opportunities to create your own luck.

That is why I also always immediately withdraw money from gambling if I have a big win.

If you can even fix a time and amount for yourself in gambling and also stick to it, then this will not be your problem. Because it’s too easy — if you know that no matter what, once you have reached your limit in gambling, you will not do it anymore, even if you are losing or winning.

But with zero plans, even your win will sometimes affect you, because lack of control over emotions hurts more than the loss. It’s painful to see yourself rich just for a couple of minutes..

Everything is Spectacular at the moment you win , the bad thing is that if the player wants to play more and Risk the money he lost , because it is almost 99% sure that he will lose everything Because he thinks that he is lucky and that he Deserves to be Winning and winning, that is something that will lead him to Failure , in fact so many things have Happened that way that whoever falls into that error now is Because they want to the best thing is to withdraw the Money and spend it , Enjoy it.

So it is important to control yourself at this moment of winning, many people forget reality in the joy of winning, they think their luck will always be good, but when they make decisions with this kind of mentality, they face disaster. Just because you have won once does not mean that it will happen again, because luck will not always be with you, so when you win, withdraw that money and enjoy it, when you buy something with your winnings or can enjoy it by eating expensive food, then you have truly won. Otherwise, after you win, if you lose it by gambling more, then you never won anytime.

We all have an interest in winning at gambling. But the amount of that interest keeps increasing. That is, if the gambler wins, then another interest is created for another win. There is no problem in winning, but there are many problems in our self-control. There are some who become more greedy because of winning. Those who gamble uncontrollably are sure to lose. Even if they win a few bets in a row, there is a high possibility of losing all their winnings due to greed. As long as greed is not controlled, the gambler will fail to keep the winnings. That is why winning at gambling can also be disastrous for a gambler if he cannot control himself.

That  kind of mindset brings gambler to a difficult situation as most of the time, when you feel that you are lucky you think that it won't stop and you need to maximize the opportunity, what happened next will be the realization that if you are not wise you'll lose everything back to the  house, better to stop and quit while you are still at the winning side, take that advantage to enjoy your earnings.

I don't think anyone likes losing money, even if they gamble or bet little. However, if you don't like losing money, gamble little and only what you can afford to lose, since in the long run, in any game, you lose money and don't win.
Otherwise casinos couldn't survive, right?

[SuperBitMan]

Winning is not the problem rather greediness is the main culprit that makes you pursue more to bet when you are already in profit.

I personally don’t view winning with negativity despite the example involved since I knew that it’s not the winning but greed. Losing or winning greed is the common factor why people lose in gambling.

Yeah you are very correct it is not the winning that is making someone pursue or go after betting more when already or have already won huge amount of money it is the greediness, some set of people are just too greedy they want to make all the money in this life, I have a friend he won a very huge amount of money in sport betting because of greediness he wants to win bigger he used all the money he won to play 2 odd the bet cut, he became so frustrated and depressed and I told him to his face that his a very greediness person and if he continues like this he will continue to get into problem.
Winning is not what makes you become addicted to gambling it is greediness, my sister is a gambler when she wins money she does not bet or gamble for 1 to 2 weeks and that has been her principles for a very long time she's not greedy and that was why she was able to maintain it like that till date, just like you said Beparanf greediness is the main culprit that makes you pursue more to bet when you are already in profit.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Just because you have won once does not mean that it will happen again, because luck will not always be with you, so when you win, withdraw that money and enjoy it,

That is the smartest thing you can do, in fact I have often said that it is the best because it Acts the same as the casino, the casino even if it is 1 dollar and does not give it to you , if you lose it the casino takes it, and if you need 1 dollar to be able to play the casino does not give you the opportunity, you must have the dollar to do it, so that type of thing is like what is Equal is not cheating , However many Players when they win end up losing Everything because of their Greed.

[Onyeeze]

Wining in the gambling can't ruin your life, the reasons being that in every winning it attracts joy, but when you lose you will be emotionally angry because you lost what you are not supposed to lose, so that the major thing in gambling, it's when you are losing constantly that is when gambling is going to ruin someone's life, so Wining brings joy in the gambling why losing makes some of the gamblers to go into depression and also make some gamblers to be addicted in gambling in every time, and also make some gamblers to borrow to gamble when they're not supposed to borrow, so borrowing to gamble ruins some people life unaware
