Who do you blame?

[Sonia_123]

But why will a gambler only gamble with just the mindset of winning alone without making plans for failure? Gambling is never a one way thing, you win today and lose another day that's just part of the industry.  And someone who loses a bet shouldn't be ashamed, as there is nothing to be ashamed of, because I haven't seen any gambler who hasn't lost a bet, so feeling ashamed is not really ideal. I know that someone who just lost a bet do feel bad momentarily, but after that moment a gambler should pick himself up and try again next time.

You will be ready to lose when you play for some time and understand that everyone loses, there is no way around it. And in order not to blame anyone, play only with the money that you can afford to lose. No one forces you to gamble, it is your decision, so there is no point in blaming anyone. Gambling requires order, like any other business involving money, if you manage it chaotically, you will lose more than you earn.

In gambling, the mentality of accepting defeat and gambling according to the ability to lose is very important, when a gambler gambles with more money than he can afford, and when he loses, he cannot accept his loss, because he borrowed that money from someone, or gambled with the money of some important work of his, and for this reason he cannot accept his losses, and as a result he decides to gamble more to recover his lost money, and thus he falls into a cycle, from which he starts to become addicted, so in gambling, it is necessary to maintain discipline and only play with the money that he can afford to lose, and it is necessary to stop in time.

Everyone should be responsible for whatever actions you take at any point in time, you were not forced or asked to gamble and so the government or casinos should not be held responsible for your actions, it all depends on how you understand gambling and how you go about it , there are rules governing gambling and if you miss it you missed it all, so you follow the rules and regulations to become a successful gambler.

In gambling self control should be the ultimate so that you don't end up shifting your blame to anyone.
Having a budget and setting a limit in time and bankroll should be your first priority in other to help you manage your gambling activities properly because as soon as you avoid these first important steps,there you start having problem for yourself which can lead to addiction and we all know it starts from chasing your losses, not spending what you can afford to lose, borrowing to gamble e.t.c.

[Odogwu-Blockchain]

The moment you start blaming someone or government for not progressing or destroying your progress or luring you into addiction is the moment you loss your balance. Self awareness and self check is the vital thing someone can do to oneself, know when it's too much and know when to stop something that doesn't nourish you anymore, that's a top tier self care.

I can't blame the government or the agency or the platform for many faulty attitudes but blame the victim for not realizing himself and stop at the right time.

Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines.

Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens.

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?

In this case we can't blame anyone but ourselves, Before you start, you already know that there will be consequences, right? In situations like this, the primary responsibility lies with oneself, as every decision made is made with full awareness. Many people choose this path out of the desire for easy and instant money, but it's important to remember that every decision carries risks that must be addressed, whether in the form of financial loss or other consequences.

So, unfortunately, gambling is based on luck. i am not the best person to say this since i am not good at math, but i think it's important to understand that casinos don't randomly play losing games. They expect to make a profit, and so in my opinion, the payout percentage isn't exactly fair.

Well you cannot  blame the casino completely at the same time because for them too they are out there to make profits and ofcourse the gamblers will have to loose a game for them to start counting their profits as a business.  As a gambler it is important to understand this and  make sure to protect yourself that you are not loosing to the point you have to start looking for whom to throw the blames at securing you feel you were deserving of a win and lost, knowing you are depending on luck ti an extent, you should put to consideration that you are going  to manage your bankroll to the point  whereby you do get chance with your bankroll been in the best position to make you money and not you loosing all to the casino at once.

That's correct. It is important that we understand that they mean business, which also means that they are going to make profits, and it will come from the gamblers. Not the other way around.
If we can accept this fact as soon as possible, it's easier to accept losses because we know they are not a charity that will just hand out some money for us. If we are lucky enough, we can win and walk away. But if we come back, that's when mistakes could happen. All we can do is rely on luck and be wise about the winnings. We can always be a winner if we don't come back. That way, we won't be blaming anyone afterwards.

[xenomorfo]

You made a good point, with what you've said, I believe that you now understand that casinos are business owned by people like me and you and the purpose for any business is profit, so since we know that winning in gambling is by luck, what does that tell, I think we have to educate ourselves on the fact that we can't win more than the casino no matter how smart we are or the strategy we think we have got to know, so having known all this, we have apply a high level of precautionary measures while gambling, whats wrong for gamblers to gamble and stay responsible since the facts about gambling is made known.

Thanks Promocodeudo, there are people who don't like what i say, and it seems really absurd to me since i think i speak with grace and rationality.
I am not saying anything against anyone, i am just telling the truth, casinos are people who earn money and have done their sums, i am not saying they cheat!!!
Games are made to make money for them and make someone win, we can't all win

That's why I always say that if a gambler blames others for their losses, they're definitely a loser. It's a sure sign they came to win, not lose, and that means they're not a responsible gambler.
It usually doesn't take long for such gamblers to experience the negative effects of gambling because they approach it so aggressively. Honestly, I've been in that terrible situation, and I often use that experience as an example for others, especially some of my friends, to learn from.

Shifting blame in gambling is not part of my habit, because most of the games i play are done by me alone and i don't risk playing when am not in the best position of taking the risk, if it comes as i have expected, then that's all about my luck and it it doesn't, i have to buckle up and do more better depending on the game am playing next time, it does not change anything shifting the blame on the casino or any other person around us, including our own self, gambling is after all for fun.

Gambling is a form of entertainment, so it should be taken very lightly, so that it does not become an important part of your life, and since it is only for entertainment purposes, no matter what the losses or win, you should accept them and stop gambling after that, and again when you need entertainment later, you can gamble with a small amount of money, and come out again without worrying about winning or losing. Try to enjoy gambling responsibly, having an uncontrolled mindset here will only lead to losses.

So what will be gained by blaming other parties, will the money spent be returned or will they receive compensation from the government? It all means nothing because each individual does it without any coercion from any party, the attitude of a gambler must actually be able to accept whatever happens after gambling.
Losing is a delayed luck (in gambling), moreover the result will always revolve around two axes (winning and losing), so there is no one to blame other than yourself who willingly risks money that you cannot afford to lose when you lose the bet.

You know every bet is fetterless so they are never ever in debt for you to win . The system is not neutral  either close misses & those losses which made to look like wins  are generally built to carry on being you playing & betting, so  this is the main reason everyone accuse staking money on something as a common health mess, it is  not just a mentality try out. so yes, take your losses but dont let the dens take you use fixed amounts exclude yourself & play it in a safer design with a better analysis

It's true that gambling is a form of entanglement but the fact remains that gambling has gone beyond just having fun and entertaining yourself, but it is now seen by most people as a form of making money so many people has taken it upon themselves gamble with the hopes of making quick money.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Playing in moderation, self control and acceptance (in facing losses) are crucial. If you can't bear losing your money and will just blame the casino or others for your losses, then better to not gamble at all.

If that is exactly what should be done, I personally say something, if a person does not feel capable of losing money in a casino, they Should not play , before going to a casino we should see how much money we can carry that we can lose , if we do that there will be no problems , but if we go to a casino without having control we are not Doing anything , well yes, losing money.

Anyway, this is I think my only thread that has reached this much pages, which I am feelin proud about :yahoo:

This is the reason why Gamblers should always have their emotions under check because gambling sometimes get a good part of our emotions and it makes us to bet continuously,gambling, putting our finances at risk this is the reason I am one of those people who think that gamblers should always go for a mental evaluation with an expert regularly to keep your emotions in check.

This means that we need support or evaluation from a psychologist to see how our mental state is, so that we will know what to do.
But it seems to be more complex and a beginner who plays then becomes an addict will never come to a psychologist, they just keep playing without caring about anything.

But for those who know how gambling is supposed to be used, they will not become an addict and will not bother them too much, There are limits and rules that are already made and should not be violated

We can always be a winner if we don't come back. That way, we won't be blaming anyone afterwards.

Exactly, the very important thing is to understand how it all works; there's no point in jumping into something without understanding.
If you understand who wins and who loses, you'll understand perfectly well that the right thing to do is to play just to pass the time and have fun.

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?

In this case we can't blame anyone but ourselves, Before you start, you already know that there will be consequences, right?

Whether you know the consequences or not is assume that you know it before getting started take so instance you start gambling without knowing the consequences unfortunately you run into trouble, did you think if they are judging this case that they are going to consider the fact that you didn't know the consequences? I'm sure that the answer will be no, no, so anyone who is into gambling should get ready to face whatever outcome he or she will get whether in the near future or maybe decade. So I see no reason why we should be blaming someone for our misfortune when we already know the consequences about gambling, even though some people may not know the consequences but you don't necessarily need to put the blame on something. And even if I'm close to such person I would ask him or her that what were you thinking that made you not to read the terms and conditions before going into it.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Actually, there is no logic in blaming someone else for your loss, did someone give you too much hope for gambling? Did they force you to gamble? It's your money, so if you wanted to stay away from gambling, could they have done anything? No, in fact, we have no logical reason to blame others, you gambled with your money with full knowledge, so if you lose, you will be the only one responsible, there is nothing to blame others for.

Most people do not like to accept that they were wrong,  that it was their fault that they lost, it is something that many see as natural, not me , I am not ashamed of that, in casinos and games it is normal to lose, what is not normal is to lose a lot of money, because to bet you should only do what you are willing to lose and nothing more.

I totally agree with you! Taking responsibility for what we do, especially in games, is essential for our growth. It's great to see that you play with this mindset of controlling risk and focusing on your own evolution, instead of blaming external factors. Ultimately, as you said, the main thing is to enjoy the game and learn from each experience. This makes everything healthier and more fun!

But I have a question for you:
Have you ever had a situation where, even though you controlled the risk, something unexpected happened? If so, how did you handle it?

And majority of gamblers don't treat gambling like it's meant to be an avenue to simply have fun, most gamblers treat gambling and a source of making money, they treat it as a business, something to be very serious about just like do with trading and other various means through which we make money from online..

Many gamblers hate to take blame for anything, some will even say it's a sign of weakness, this is why I real life, we see some people who gamble physically are always very arrogant and disrespectful like people without proper home training, well they indeed lack home training for sure since their arrogant and disrespectful behavior proves so.
This type of people blame casinos, or people around them, or whatever they can lay accusation on, to be the reason for their misfortune in gambling, meanwhile they win, they praise their self as being smart, I refer to this type of gamblers as the selfish ones.

A good gambling habit is to try your best to take responsibility for every mistake and action. Taking responsibility means one is ready to make a change and grow.

If one is fond of blaming, it will be difficult for them to have the understanding needed to make good decisions in gambling, and it will also be very difficult to have self-examination. There will always be blame at the end when things are not coming out as one wants them to be.

Perhaps they are egoists, but in general the game reflects a person, first of all he plays with his emotions and if he is not able to curb them, then the emotions will take over him. The player will think that he does not deserve to lose or come up with new excuses, but it is important not to deceive yourself, to be calm and reasonable. Understand that the game will not go anywhere and you can continue without being excited. I think I learned this a long time ago, all that remains is to come up with a good strategy for the game.
