Big stake, low stake

[LUCKMCFLY]

Even if i have the kind of money, I don't think gambling is someplace i will prefer to spend it, or the best place to get myself entertained to the fullest. I'm very much controlled on my bankroll, with the way things are going, gambling does not assure any significant return, instead of using those funds to gamble, such amounts can be utilized into different sector with a guarantee of profits.

I understand, and it's fair. Personally, I'd say that houses should be like that now with our money, but some people don't have that. Some don't care about spending and spending. I honestly don't see the point, but even so, people with a lot of money can go on that kind of adventure. I couldn't it would hurt me if I spent more than $50 at once But since my economic situation isn't the same as the rich people's, the differences are obvious.

Most people don't know that the level of amount you use for gambling also determine the kind of win you take home big risk takers go home with the meat at the table well low risk takers go home with left overs I mean no disrespect to people who gamble with low budget though gambling is supposed to be fun but even at that we are supposed to take risk as the popular saying goes only those who takes risk make it big so when gambling enjoy the game and take higher risk

Without even told we are meant to understand that all gamblers are not the same, and even tough gambling involves losses than winnings so definitely a responsible gambler will never go extra mile in gambling because of the fact that nothing is satting in the game. Do you think that taking a lot of risks will change the outcome? Honestly, I don't think so because gambling is purely a game that luck plays a significant role in determining the final outcome, so I will always gamble responsibly without getting caught up in the game since nothing else can change the game.

Yes, it would indeed be better for everyone who gambles to adjust according to their ability, not their desire. Sometimes we are mocked by friends when we bet small. But if that is the limit of our ability, there is no need to force ourselves to bet big beyond our capability just because we want recognition from others. Because if we lose, we bear it ourselves, and we could even become the laughingstock of friends if we follow them.

It doesn't matter if they make fun of you, that's irrelevant People like that, toxic people, can mess with you. They can mess with me here on the forum, on social media, but honestly, I don't care. I'd like them to mess with me personally because it wouldn't go well for them. And I'm usually pretty easygoing, I'm not that good verbally, but when that happens, you shouldn't pay any attention, The important thing is that with just a little bit of play, the chances of winning are there, and fun is guaranteed.

We should gamble based on how much we've got in our bankroll. Because the more we gamble that's outside our budget, the more losses we'll make.

And the harder recovery that we should go. To be honest, about the recovery. One who gambles should forget about that anymore.

As we gamble, we should accept the fate that we're more likely to lose the money than to win. That's the reality of gambling then.

The best basis that one can have in the betting world must be acceptability of the likelihood of a loss greater than the likelihood of winning. In my opinion, a tight budget is a key defence mechanism that would help to shield our economic state against an ultimate disaster. When you forget about recouping the lost capital, the mind will not be burdened by emotional issue that usually interfere with reason. In order to have a stable life, we need to always have our feet on the ground regarding market realities.

I agree. Anticipating that the losses will come more than winning is a good acceptance that we might lose it then.

Not to cut with so much enthusiasm when we gamble. But this sets the reality that we're likely to lose than to win when we gamble.

So, it truly is a good defense mechanism when we lose. You will not stay on that negative feeling from losing and will move forward.

There are guys that are confrontational, but there could be gamblers that won't do anything. It's not that they are afraid, but they don't want to expand their energy to this kind of people who messes with you. For me, the better approach is to totally ignore those who's going to laugh at you. If you think about it, you don't ask for them money so that you can gambler or bet. Just mind your own business, block those kind of people around you. And that could be a big boost in your confidence next time and regardless if you bet small or big, you could the next winner. And then just continue what you are doing as it's the most effective method for you.

None of what’s written in the title is really correct for me. The right idea is just “stake what you can afford to lose.”

Is it still gambling when you are not taking risks. Gambling is a risky thing, and the risk makes it gambling. In gambling no risk no gain. There certainly will be losses, yes, but you can be lucky too and win something good.

But, this point

I can see you stake big because we have different financial situations, and you probably see mine as small. That’s normal.

I resonate with it totally, because according to you, there is no fixed amount, it's all from each individual's point of view what a big stake or small stake is.

If you have a large bankroll, you can't compare your stake quantity to someone with smaller bankroll. So the idea of stake quantity is all subjective.

I believe that all gambling games are equal in terms of profitability, and therefore the chances of winning can be judged based on the most obvious game, where even a first-grade student can calculate the odds: dice. If we make a rough calculation, the chances of making a profit or incurring losses are approximately equal to 50%. However, the casino still takes its "commission." So if someone bets \$1 and expects to win \$1,000, they should understand that this event has a 0.1% chance of happening, not a 5-10% chance. A positive mindset and faith won't increase these chances. Casinos are all about strong math, as it's the foundation of their business model, and they know how to capitalize on it.

and capabilities than to regret hard when situation turned against you, there's no need to follow what others told you or whatever other gamblers wanted you to do, its your hard earned money and you are the only one that should direct your way to whatever strategy you plan to use each time you stepped your foot inside any type of gambling that you are involved.

There is no doubt it is the right thing to do, it is always good to maintain limits so as not to overdo it because in the end if we lose it is money, and it is not pleasant to lose money and although we have the natural enjoyment of the time spent, the more we save from losing money unnecessarily the better, besides it is an indication of having responsibility.

There are people or gamblers who believes that the more they take risk the higher the chances or possibility of winning but that is self deception because it's not true. You are right, luck is very important in gambling because without luck we can not win especially in sports betting where you don't really need your skills to play. The mistake some gamblers also make is having the mindset they will make it through gambling even knowing loss is inevitable.

Strongness in upholding financial lines is an indication of the personality of a warrior who is very concerned with the future of the family belongings. I feel that all the saving processes are long term investments, which would bring sweet fruit when the time comes. The discipline will help us prevent the tendency of losing money and therefore, we will be more confident about our ability to manage our capital. We should still develop a prudent mentality such that nothing we spend on was in vain.

[POPOLUV]

It is always advisable for all gamblers to know when staking, he/she should stake with what they can be able to afford to lose because big stake or low stake doesn't guarantee wining as far as gambling is concerned, so as a gambler i know too well that staking games can comes in different amounts from gamblers, so if you should ask me that between big stake and low stake which one that eassy stress or reduce risk, i will say it is big stake when you have one or two games or odds in a ticket then accumulating so much games in a ticket with many odds to win a huge amount of money and with that i think the only way lossing can minimize and to be lucky of winning is to avoid gathering so much odds or games in one tickets.

[r_victory]

I bet the amount that suits me, since I'm depending on luck; I have no reason to bet very high amounts. I've said this in other threads: if I win, even if it's a small amount, I'm already satisfied, and if I lose, I won't be shaken, since it won't be a loss that will harm me financially. Everyone bets what they can afford; there's no rule. Those who bet little don't do it because they're afraid but because they're aware of how much they can risk.

Indeed, its an indication that you are still in control of your emotions, though I like that statement which even you lose there's the entertainment part that you paid for, unlike when you can control yourself you'll aggressively push yourself to recover, more on money and time management that you should have inside you by keeping that control you can enjoy gambling participation.

You are very smart and that is why you think about gambling in this way. To be honest, gambling is completely dependent on luck, so since only luck is tested here and the amount you bet is completely left to luck, you can lose it and if you are lucky, you can win, so you should not bet the amount of money that you cannot afford to lose. There is no such thing as a professional gambler or a skilled gambler, in everyone's case, winning in gambling depends on their luck, so you must bet the amount that you can easily accept if you lose and this is the standard strategy of gambling.

I agree, because mathematics is behind all games of chance and the casino always has an advantage. The only difference is that some games have a smaller house edge than others. In the end, understanding probabilities helps more in controlling expectations than in actually beating the system.

[livingfree]

When you can take risk that big, good for you and that means that you're likely free from most financial obligations.

Because most people can't take big risks and bets due to that fact that they can't prioritize betting than their financial obligations.

So, if someone can stake big amount and risk. They're the ones who can also win by a chance but, this shouldn't be a metric of how big/small a gambler is.

The honest truth is that there are definitely those who bet small amount of money due to fear of betting big and ending up losing the bet.
This particular one have happened to me a couple of time where I see a match I want to bet on, I know that I am capable of betting big but then, I will end up betting a very tiny amount of money because I am afraid of losing the bet and my money if the game fail to go as predicted..

But the issue in this type of bet is that when such a bet end up winning, instead of feeling happy and celebrating that you won, you become sad and moody instead, filled with regret because you are now thinking "had I know the bet will win, I would have gone ahead with betting a big amount so the winning amount could come up much more"
But in the end, it's still best for us to play it safe at all times because gambling is something which it's outcome can not be perfectly predicted.

of course the advantages will be on the casino because they are run a business for profit  
If gamblers think casino always have advantage for the results, why they are still gamble? sometimes i feel just like, a lot of member here complaining about casino profits. if gamblers know they will be loss in gambling, why they are still gamble? house edge just part of service fees, any other business will have a fees to handle the order, so it also a normal thing that can be implemented for casino operational. choosing the smallest fees can be good choice, but never thinking about it if gamblers still want to gamble. If gamblers don't want to lose or give a profit to casino, just stop gamble, as simple like that

[junder]

Lately, I’ve preferred placing larger bets, but of course I always do so within my means so there are still limits based on what I can afford.

At first when I was just getting into gambling, I used small bets but as time went on I figured since it involves luck, I chose to go with big bets because if I get lucky with a big bet the payout could be substantial too and yes I’ve experienced that a few times.

[gunhell16]

In the world of gambling, there are many gamblers who hope that they will become rich by playing gambling. But I also believe that those who have a lot of money to gamble have a greater chance of winning because they are the rich gamblers.

Then they still have stakes if they ever lose a lot, in which case for me it doesn't seem right. That can be considered an addiction for a gambler who is addicted to the world of the gambling industry. And the chances of winning for those with only small gambling capital are very low.
