Have you ever lied to cover a gambling loss?

How about other lies that you uses because you can't admit to yourself that you've actually lost because it's a sign of weakness?

Yes Ive lied before but not to hurt anyone, it was more to protect them and myself from the shame of admitting how much I really lost. Sometimes Id say I only lost $50 when it was actually over than that or claim I lent money or my paycheck was short, just to buy time and avoid disappointment. It wasnt about betrayal, but about hiding a weakness I wasnt ready to face. I guess everyone have the same dillemma or prolly doesnt just want to let it out since its gambling related and you fear they wont understand.

Who doesn't lie? All of us do it so that there's no any arguments will happen. Since for sure our love ones especially our wife will get angry with us if we lose lots of money in gambling. That's why we need to tell those thing so that we can avoid getting any conflicts inside on our homes.

I always say that I lose small before so that no further questions will be asked. But I realize that I made huge mistake for hiding and now make sure that I fix everything then will not exceed to my limits in gambling.

Everyone really have same dilemma on this situation because I guess we share same thoughts that we don't want our love ones to get angry with us that's why we try to hide everything to them.

Yes thats right. Or better yet we should stopped already for their peace of mind but once a gambler will always be one is that even true? Maybe it is but there some people who prolly changed for the better and become equipped with discipline to supress the urge to play.

I wonder myself if I ever be on that situation when the time comes. But ofcouse I cant say it as its impossible to promise.

Do you check conscious or unconsciously lied to someone or to your love ones to cover your gambling loses? And what kind of lying did you do? Did you tell that you just lost like $50 but in reality it's $500.00? Or that you lend some money to your friend, but then you go and play on casinos? Or you tell that your paycheck is short and there is something wrong with it and so you will have to ask your company's HR about it?

How about other lies that you uses because you can't admit to yourself that you've actually lost because it's a sign of weakness?

As for me, I use my own funds for gambling here on the crypto gambling online casino in this forum. And I only use a limited amount most of the time. My wife knows about this,
and when I lose, I stop right away and just come back another time.

So, I've never experienced losing more than $100 in one game or one gambling session. That has never happened to me because I limit myself to $20-30 per game, twice a month,
and sometimes only once a month. This is just how my gambling cycle goes.

When you say lied to someone,  that simply means they financed your gambling or gave you money for something which you misappropriated! Sorry am not the type that gambles with people's money because it puts pressure on you and trust me , very few people have managed to flip this into a profit!!!

Anybody that wants to gamble and wants to enjoy their peace of mind,  don't gamble with loan money, or money meant for a different purpose,  you will thank me later .

You are right, there would be no reason to lie if you gambled with your own money and probably lost it, you owe no one any sort of explanation, after all it's your money. But In a situation where you lost an amount of money that doesn't belong to you gotten from either your friend, loan company, bank and so on, it would be really difficult to just say it straight up that you actually used their money to gamble

Any player that lied or play smart decieving himself that he can't lavish money on gambling when it's actually not true is just hurting himself not others, it sounds foolish to me that someone would be telling lies about his own money, like they'll punish him for spending his own money?

It doesn't make sense to me, it should be another ones money used up and loose in gambling that made such user a lies.

If the problem is like this, it will certainly be a disaster for those who use the money. Why would someone gamble using someone else's money?Lying is often part of a pattern of behavior that is common in gambling, including the habit of covering up problems and avoiding responsibility. It is important for us to understand that gambling with other people's money without permission is not only financially detrimental, but can also damage trust and overall social relationships, thus creating an unhealthy environment.

You also need to research to understand the clearer reasons behind their lies to their loved ones when it comes to gambling. There are also good reasons why they try to lie to prevent their loved ones from falling into gambling if they themselves don't have control and an income of their own. However, lying is clearly not good in the end, so honesty should be prioritized in all matters. Lying also benefits neither themselves nor their loved ones.

Thankfully, I haven't had any major gambling losses in a long time, because I play with small amounts, and only with my own money, which I can afford to lose. But I have had some medium-sized losses for a long time, so to speak. I simply paid those losses out of my earnings. I had no reason to lie about them. In general, in my opinion, there's little point in publicizing my gambling activity. Besides, you should only spend your own money on gambling, the loss of which won't be a significant problem for you. Then everything will be fine.

A time comes you have to start being honest with yourself and your loved ones. It is the time when you accept the losses and prepare to control your habits. Gambling is a habit that gets people addicted without ever realizing it. This is why if you are honest from the start you can stop this addiction from ever happening.

Once they stop lying and attempt to make up their loss, if the loved ones are supporting they will surely recover.

In this aspect, I'm not truthful to my gambling friends to tell them the real amount of funds I lost in a gambling center, reason is that anything you tell your friends about your lost they will quickly spread it around that environment and if you are not careful it will spread to your family members to hear the amount of funds you have lost to gambling, we know, this is not the kind news our parents or family members want to hear from responsible children they are looking up to become great leaders to be proud, I can still remember that I even lied for my gambling friends last Saturday when I lost $70 in some games I use to win , but I didn't tell them the real amount of dollars I lost because I know what will happen if I tell them the truth  that I have lost $70.

That’s the best thing to do to avoid being the gossip of your community. They will talk a lot of crap about it as if you asked them for your gambling funds. Even if you lose and lie to them, as long as you didn’t ask them for money or it doesn’t affect your personal life or the people around you, there’s no need to tell them about your losses. It’s not your obligation. But of course, always remember to save and not gamble all your funds. Think of your future as well.

That's actually childish trying to cover up your lost with lies it sounds crazy to me because it doesn't still change the fact that you have lose but rather hides you from the actual reality.

I know of a friend that is in form of doing that trying to cover up when is gambling game didn't go well but the funniest part is that when ever he comes up with such idea I always find out and he's always surprised how I always find out.

Furthermore, their's no need getting worked up over a split milk what has happen has happened, opened up to yourself and who else that cares to know and save your self that stress.

Honestly from the beginning or your family knows that you are gambling at an online casino it may be an advantage in the end as more people are starting to pay attention and give advice about the limits of gambling.
If it is done in a family that normalizes gambling and gambling is also legal in his country, then it will become a normal activity.

But if you are in a place that prohibits gambling, let alone your family,
will think twice about notifying the gambling activity that is being carried out because it violates the rules and norms that exist in his environment about a gamble.

Sometimes it's necessary to hide this kind of thing when your place of residence hates gambling or something like that, because it's considered inappropriate.
But on the other hand, if no one knows we will just be immersed in the problem of gambling addiction that no one will give advice and such.

So instill from the beginning in our minds that gambling is only for entertainment, not for the main need to make money, not to spend money, just allocate a little money and start playing as usual.

I personally have lost money several times in gambling even though it is not big, but the sense of loss is quite imprinted and makes me regret, when I can't control the games I play.

Your post is short and weighs effectively. Many people lied about gambling, but I see that as ridiculous of oneself, you do not have to lie about gambling or anything you do, for that matter. If you can't be bold and proud of doing it, why do it? That is the way I think. So long as it's my money, I shouldn't be afraid of anyone, and my hurt of losing should be felt mostly by me, not anyone else.

To get this done, responsible gambling is non-negotiable, because even if it's your earned money, if it's supposed to be meant for other good purposes, especially for family matters, then it's not about you alone, but also your family.

There are many case studies, so we should just stay responsible or not gamble at all.

[Jody.Drummer]

I once lied to a friend of mine who also enjoyed gambling, where I suffered significant losses and spent most of my salary. I worked at the same place as my friend, and when I ran out of money, my mother borrowed from my friend. She asked where all my previous earnings went. I told her I'd used it to pay all my bills and family debts.
This actually taught me a lesson about not gambling excessively beyond my means, but the pull of gambling is so strong, that sometimes I still gamble recklessly.

This should imply to those who gamble recklessly with important funds meant for essential needs, gamblers who do such would see a reason to lie to their spouse or family cause they're ashamed of letting them know the heavy amount they've lots to gambling and won't want to be seen as someone that's not responsible with money, but someone that gambles responsibly with funds that's their spare won't have a need to lie, since they still have funds to provide for essential needs, I do gamble with my spare cash so I see no reason to lie to cover any loss since it's what I can afford to lose.

Everyone have lost money to casino and that's a normal thing, as a gambler I always stay true to myself and I don't care what everyone else thinks about my gambling habits. I don't owe anyone an explanation on how I choose to spend my hard earned money and whether I win or lose it is entirely my responsibility and using any amount to gamble is my decision to I don't have to lie to anyone about my losses because it happens and that is life, the only thing I owe myself and my family is to gamble responsibility and never to be reckless in gambling.

If this experience helped prevent a repeat of this mistake, it's a small price to pay. I believe hiding things from loved ones is a bad decision, but it's even better to avoid having to hide anything from them, and that doesn't require gambling with money we can't afford to lose. Gambling with just a small portion of your salary is safe. In all my years of gambling, my experience tells me that there's no bet that's guaranteed to bring you a profit; even if you're very confident in it, it could still end in a loss.

every gambler usually have one or two lies to cover up their loses. i have sold my home appliance to gamble and when i was asked about it, i told my family that it developed some fault and i took it to the workshop for respire and till today it has not been repaired. that was how i escaped the problem that would have happened.

You are very wrong with your perspective if you think every gambler lies to cover up for their losses because there are gamblers that aren't answerable to anyone, and they don't need to lie to cover up their losses, while there are gambler that use the money they can afford to lose to gamble, and when they lose their bet, they don't need lie to cover up their losses because they can solve their expenses and live a comfortable life. It is only when you use the money meant for your expenses to gamble and you lose the money that you will lie to cover your losses because you will not want any of your family members to find out your lost the money in gambling.

[Kelward]

I don't have any reasons to lie to anybody about my loss in gambling because I use my own money and the amount is always what I can afford to loose. If you're a responsible gambler there's no need to tell lies about your gambling loses because you don't owe anybody any explanation. It is when you borrow money or use funds for something else to gamble and lose that you can lie to cover up. Gambling is not a business or investment and there is no justifiable reasons to use money that is not yours to gamble with. Always be in control and bold of your gambling so far you're a responsible adult.

It's good that you know your friends too well because if you don't know them so well and you tell them your personal problems such as gambling losses or wins, it's just like shooting yourself on the leg because they will help your to spread the information to even the people you wouldn't want to hear about the information that you shared with them out of trust that you had for them. I have some trusted friends that will always keep our gambling records or stories within themselves but when I gamble alone, there are things I can not completely share with then, so they do too.
