How to be a low risk gambler

[danherbias07]

Gambling is addictive. And there is not a single gambler who earns 10,000 dollar per year but only spends $8 per month. Gamblers, whether they lose or win, will not stop gambling until they run out of money, including their assets.

I truly agree with that.

There's no winner if you keep on playing in the long run. You will just end up feeling the house edge that was set there the minute we signed up and started gambling.
No doubt there will be winning moments, but it doesn't mean it will go on for years. It could be a one time win which happens most of the time because it is  like a trap to urge more gamblers to keep on playing.

We lose in a higher chance and to avoid that, we must gamble moderately or responsibly.

The more self-control one can have and the more he can set a limit for betting, the more he can reduce the risk. Because one thing that everyone should pay great attention to while gambling is never to get addicted. Because the losses and risks increase mainly because of the addiction. OP, the example you gave of a limit for gambling with income is a very useful thing. However, if there is no mind control, then even if someone creates this limit on their own, not everyone can accept it and stop betting at the right place. Then basically the amount of risk increases.

Self control and understanding to know that gambling can never be predicted is the key in gambling. The problem most gamblers have in gambling they believe they can always predict to win and luck will always come their way and this makes them to have overconfidence in gambling which they dont mind in gambling with even the amount that they can't afford to lose. And I will say a lot of people are so fast to gamble which they don't have the time to think about gambling but they rather go about gambling with their own understanding that is why it is so difficult for them to have self control and be discipline in gambling.

When we excessively imagine that we are in control of the result of the gambling, then we fail to exercise control. The knowledge of the vagaries of gambling is essential to remining prudent in our gambling. Most individuals will get overconfident about gambling thinking that they can always get lucky. We are also likely to stake more money than we can pay, thus quite risky, so we need self-control. More informed gambling can be achieved through realising the drawbacks and dangers of gambling.

Gambling is always a balance between risk and reward, and lowering the risk usually means lowering potential profit too. Discipline is indeed the key to survival in gambling and without discipline people often chase losses and end up in deeper trouble. Betting only on selected matches and focusing on strong or  your favorite teams is a smart approach, since it reduces unnecessary exposure. And even if the profit is not huge, consistency and risk control matter more.

Most time the risk is not always equal to the chances of getting the reward and that has been the reason why most gamblers would always look for a way to bypass any means that can reduce the potential of winning. Gambling is not fair most time for some players. The style of gambling, the risk you are taking, the number of time you are taking to analyze your bet will not increase your chances of making profits from gambling.

You just stated a very big fact here that " the style, risk taken, time taken to analyze game" won't make us stand in a big position to make profit which i consider a very straightforward truth and some people don't believe and understand this because they feel that winning depend on how much time they use in predicting and the pattern they are using to predict though sometimes our analysis due help but not all the time and what you stated simply means that we winning in gambling or betting is total luck and nothing more than that.

Thank God you stated that sometimes analysis do help which means we can't just throw that away. There is no arguement about the fact that gambling is a game of chance but it doesn't mean that game shouldn't be analyse. As much as lucky is essential for winning, it doesn't mean that it is only luck that do guarantee winning in gambling. Moreover it is not everybody that gambles to make profit, so the time spent in analysing game maybe part of the fun they derived in gambling.

Whatever we say in gambling, if luck is not with us, we will not win. Gamblers should not rely only on luck. In some bets, strategy, skill and experience play a special role. Although these cannot ensure victory, they play an important role in winning or keeping luck close. After placing a bet, it is necessary to wait for luck, but if a decision can be made with good analysis and wisdom, then winning can be easier. I like to put 80 percent of my gambling on luck, but 20 percent on skill and experience.

Self control and understanding to know that gambling can never be predicted is the key in gambling.

It is hard to make good prediction because the gambler need to have luck before they can win. It is very difficult to predict that is why there are more losses than winning. If we understand that the reason why it is difficult to win a bet is because we are not lucky maybe we can learn how to gamble with what we can afford to risk. Self control is the key to responsible gamble, it anyone don't have it will be difficult to win.

So how do you play as a low risk gambler?
Or you just can't adjust with the numbers of times you gamble?

This is possible m, but as a gambler sometimes you find yourself breaking so many rules. No matter show good you are with the numbers or risk management, you one or two times break your rules. Gambling should be something we do when we have a free hour. Do you know that when you begin to set out times like this to gamble, it most likely would be a reason for you to want to gamble even more. Because your mind would be somehow restless till that time when you have set to gamble. You sooner or later would miss your games and during this period you just want to play.

For me what I do is to deposit what I'm ready to lose for each round. I've said it several times, this way when you lose, you know there's not much money left for you to continue playing so you have to reduce your risk.

[Bigjoe33]

Gamble no more than 4 days per month: I don't know how easy this will be for many gamblers because even around me, gamblers don't just gamble 4 times in a month. Gambling 4 times means 1 per week and I think that is reasonable. It will be easier for those who don't have Android phones   or those who are really busy with office work and barely have time, just on weekends. But this is reasonable and will help to reduce addiction if we have the emotional control. My suggestion is, to gamble four times in a month, you have to focus on few games or sports, maybe just focus of football and particularly with few leagues.


So how do you play as a low risk gambler?

This is it, this second point. I have reduced to a point that sometimes, I manage to gamble just ones in 2 months, sometimes, twice in 4-5 months. I have adopted this method to reduce my number of gambling and possibly losses.

But you know, been able to keep to this isn't easy. I didn't just win it at a thought, No. I was a matter of great decision and disciplined minds. Here is what I added to the decision that also helped, smiles!
Anytime the urge to gamble comes, especially weekends, I simply tell myself, it will be lost at the end, so why wasting the money. Sometimes, after selecting games to bet on I'm sport's betting, before clicking the bet button, I will just convince myself and say, it will be same storyline, lost with red everywhere, so save up your money for something else. And I will just walk away, and that has been the magic.

This is good if you can just keep to it but not many gamblers would be able to say no to an inching desire to continue gambling and the sooner they lost the running deposit, they are there again depositing to continue playing. It is not about I want to deposit a small amount but how many times do we refill when we lose out? The whole part is to be cautious and limit ourselves on how many times we play, not about small deposit or big deposit. Because, you can keep depositing such small amount until you are bankrupt.

That's why many gamblers always emphasize responsibility and self-control in gambling so that these conditions don't keep repeating themselves and only harm the gambler.
It is difficult to avoid this kind of hype especially when we are already too lulled into a game in the gambling that we do but when something like this is not forced then obviously the situation can even become much more complicated.

There is nothing that can be done apart from keeping the gambling hype at bay because when that happens then indeed the point you make about trying to deposit and losing uncontrollably will always happen in the end and this cycle will continue to repeat itself when we still don't realize where we went wrong.

It's the taught that matters because if you decide to accept the fact that you can deposit little feeling you are not overdoing it and then still end up playing and chasing after wins then you are just rolling in one whole circle over and over again and at the long run the entire bankroll you are depositing little by little will be finished and then you are still the same as the guy that deposited all and went bankrupt because that's all that happens to greed humans

Although it might be an innocuous deposit amount, this practise can negatively make things worse. The lust to keep on pursuing wins be they small portions and so on only increase losses in the long run. This habit will destroy the finances of any person even without knowing it, however small they may be, just like an individual who rolls dice using all his or her money. This indicates that addiction to gambling may occur in different forms.

Any individual that has a problem handling the way they manage risk shouldn't be gambling because gambling is a risky game that needs both emotional control and intelligence to handle it properly. Being a low risk gambler should mean gambling with the least amount of money possible and I think the only way you can do that effectively is to have a budget and always try not to exceed that budget regardless of what happens. Gambling is very tempting a nd it can make you touch money that you aren't supposed to touch therefore, making those money inaccessible to you is a good way to prevent some mistakes from happening that if it does, it'll end in regrets

That's true gambling is one thing that involves both mental and emotional intelligence.anyone that lacks these qualities should not find himself gambling because such a person will always be found wanting by getting addicted because, gambling it's self is tempting and it will take having someone with an intelligent emotional control to handle it.


Prevention is key so it's better that you don't gets involved at the first place, than getting involved and regretting self consciousness is the key to success in gambling.

Gambling is always a balance between risk and reward, and lowering the risk usually means lowering potential profit too. Discipline is indeed the key to survival in gambling and without discipline people often chase losses and end up in deeper trouble. Betting only on selected matches and focusing on strong or  your favorite teams is a smart approach, since it reduces unnecessary exposure. And even if the profit is not huge, consistency and risk control matter more.

Most time the risk is not always equal to the chances of getting the reward and that has been the reason why most gamblers would always look for a way to bypass any means that can reduce the potential of winning. Gambling is not fair most time for some players. The style of gambling, the risk you are taking, the number of time you are taking to analyze your bet will not increase your chances of making profits from gambling.

You just stated a very big fact here that " the style, risk taken, time taken to analyze game" won't make us stand in a big position to make profit which i consider a very straightforward truth and some people don't believe and understand this because they feel that winning depend on how much time they use in predicting and the pattern they are using to predict though sometimes our analysis due help but not all the time and what you stated simply means that we winning in gambling or betting is total luck and nothing more than that.

I like to put 80 percent of my gambling on luck, but 20 percent on skill and experience.

Gambling is dependent on luck but the type of game will tell you how much percentage it will depend on, for example if someone depends on casino games then it will depend on 80% to 100% for him because casino games have to be played completely depending on luck but if someone depends on sports for gambling then he does not have to depend on luck completely because sports betting depends on experience, strategy and analysis 80%. I sometimes participate in casino games but I understand by participating there that they start playing completely on luck where if luck is good it is possible to win but when I participate in sports betting then I create a lot more chances of winning with experience and strategy by analyzing.

[Yorubek]

I think that to reduce the risk in gambling, first of all, gambling should be managed by determining the time and money and there should be no greed to get back the lost money and one should play with time and use the money that one can afford to lose in gambling and all the necessary expenses should be set aside in advance and it is very important to have an emergency fund, because the future is uncertain and nothing can be said with certainty. If you consistently follow the steps while gambling, the risk of losing money can be reduced many times.

[Strongkored]

So how do you play as a low risk gambler?

Only use the results from the signature campaign and will only move to casino games if I make a profit on sports betting, and when playing casino games more often with the smallest bet base.

Or you just can't adjust with the numbers of times you gamble?

I only play once a week when I'm free because playing in between my busy schedule is very annoying because it's hard to stop.

[MRY]

This is good if you can just keep to it but not many gamblers would be able to say no to an inching desire to continue gambling and the sooner they lost the running deposit, they are there again depositing to continue playing.

Some people enjoy gambling though when it is poor managed, the consequences are almost hazardous. Being one of the most intelligent methods, it is always better to budget and not surpass it. By so doing you saved yourself temptations to losses. Insuring your gamblings can protect your finances so that you would not need to face even greater economic problems later on in life.

It is hard to make good prediction because the gambler need to have luck before they can win. It is very difficult to predict that is why there are more losses than winning. If we understand that the reason why it is difficult to win a bet is because we are not lucky maybe we can learn how to gamble with what we can afford to risk. Self control is the key to responsible gamble, it anyone don't have it will be difficult to win.

Gambling is something that in my opinion does involve luck so players will be able to win if they are lucky, whether it is in a purely luck-based game or with the type of game that requires special skills, luck is still involved.
And yes self-control is important and that's the key but that doesn't mean that people who have good self-control will win easily, because in my opinion good self-control here means that they can avoid big losses, not that it will be easy to win.

[fruktik]

One of the best and suitable way to be a low risk gamblers is by setting strict limits for yourself, like deciding how much you are willing to lose before even placing a bet, and sticking to it no matter what..  Do not even try chasing losses, do not play with emotions..
Also, treat gambling like entertainment, not an income source. Once you start seeing it as a way to make money, that is where risk goes up..

What does it mean to not play on emotions? Why do I do it then? On the contrary, that's precisely what I came for. To experience a whirlwind of emotional experiences, not just watch the whole thing like a robot.

I agree that you should set a deposit limit and stick to it. I've already learned this from my own experience. There was a time when I didn't think about it and lost much more money. Now I've realized it. Until I go through all this myself, other people's stories won't serve as an example for me.
