Who is a gambler?

[whiteblue]

To be called a gambler, you must not be gambling daily or weekly, so long as you always have the desire to gamble and you normally gamble anytime you have the time to do so, then you are a gambler, even if it takes 2 weeks or 1 month gap before you gamble, it's still the same thing, you are a gambler who doesn't play always.

A person who gambles daily is called a gambler, someone who gambles once a week is also called a gambler. A person who gambles once a month is also called a gambler, or even once every six months is still considered a gambler. Basically, that person is gambling; the activity is inherent in their life; only the time interval varies.

I don't know why this is being questioned, because in conclusion, a gambler doesn't need many elements to be credible to be called a gambler. Just like whether you are a carnivore or a herbivore, and you sometimes eat meat and sometimes vegetables, which is the right word to claim that you are not a carnivore if you sometimes eat meat every day or not.

everyone not playing gamble in regularly, as like i'm not regular player in the gambling, sometimes i didn't log in my gambling account even 1 month,
for that i will not be considered a gambler? in my understanding gambler have types, 1. responsible gamblers, and 2. addicted gamblers,
who is gambler not playing everyday and recklessly they are responsible, addicted gamblers not sleeping to play it, they have chasing mentality,

You are a gambler because those who gamble are gamblers for that time, so whether someone gambles for a day or plays every day/regularly plays for a month, they are all gamblers. But the more you play, the more likely you are to become addicted. However, if someone gambles once or twice a year, he cannot be called a gambler. However, one thing to keep in mind is that you cannot gamble recklessly with the money you have saved in life.

There are people who suffers gambling addiction today but are unaware somehow.

And that's one of the most dangerous things there is , because it's a silent addiction, and we as players need to know what we're getting into and how our mental health is doing If we know we're losing a lot of money, it's much better to leave things as they are for a while, until we reflect, and then when we play again, we do better.

It's easy to say, but in reality, when an addicted gambler has a losing streak and starts to tilt, their emotions actually take over their common sense. At such moments, the gambler loses control and cannot stop in time. This leads to the fact that this kind of gambler ends up trapped because losses provoke negative emotions that dull self-control, while attempts to win back losses, or more precisely, the inflated expectation of winning something, stimulate the production of dopamine.

Certain things are very difficult to do but when it's carried with determination and purposeful actions to stop it, then you can be sure of having an improved difference from what may have seem to be not an easy thing to do with how easy it is to say. When a gambler becomes nonchalant about his gambling attitudes and making no efforts at turning away from all that comes at you in a harmful twist with all the high expectations for a win and recovery failing as it should.

Addiction is not visible in the eyes of those that are inflicted by the urge to continue using their money to gamble without ever thinking that they can gamble for the fun. Sometimes they might see it like it's ordinary without knowing that gambling have eaten them up with less awareness to their consciousness. It is better to gamble less to reduce the temptation of gambling too frequently.

It's easy to talk about gambling addiction when you haven't personally experienced it. Unfortunately, I couldn't escape it. I dove headfirst into it many years ago. I lost a large amount of money and ended up in debt for quite a while. This is what happens when you get too caught up in gambling. It completely consumes the mind and makes you a slave to it. Is that hard to comprehend? Yes, it is very hard.

Just as the title has already caption it..
I want to know; who is a gambler and what are the characteristics of a gambler?

Reason being that, in this section we often tends to be seeing several posts about people calling themselves gamblers, but truth be told, if you play slot today and didn't play again tomorrow or next or even till a month interval would that person be called a gambler?
If NO, who then is to be called a gambler?
Let discussed amicably as I really want to get something meaningful from this topic.

You can search Google for the definition or you could just ask ChatGPT or any AI chatbot.
A person, who enters a casino once a month and plays some gambling games every once in a while cannot be called a gambler. I can't decide what amount of daily gambling makes a person gambler, but playing online gambling every day or every other day definitely makes you a gambler. May I ask why do you want to know such information? Do you consider yourself a gambler? Is it offensive, if somebody calls you a gambler? I totally wouldn't care if the people in my town start calling me a gambler, but I know that the word "gambler" carries negative connotation and some people might look at you as if you are some kind of criminal.

I recently started thinking about how many people who actually gamble wouldn't call themselves gamblers. For example, I know a guy who loves betting and, thanks to it, gets a huge number of promo codes for online casino slots and other bonuses, which he wisely uses to play there. Because of this, he's become a fairly frequent visitor to online casinos rather than bookmakers, and he even admitted to me that he now uses his own money to top up his balances. In short, he's become a true gambler. But I've NEVER heard him call me that, and he doesn't even think about it. He just plays, places bets, and does whatever he wants. He also doesn't call me a gambler.
Therefore, this term is usually used by non gamblers for gamblers.

Basically, gambling is very risky, but those who can gamble responsibly are very experienced gamblers. Those who gamble mainly for fun will become addicted to gambling for this fun. Of course, gambling addiction is not right. Gambling addiction can never be right for a family. So we have to get out of gambling addiction. Many times, it is seen that a member who is addicted to gambling constantly quarrels with his family about gambling, so we have to refrain ourselves from this type of gambling addiction. Due to gambling addiction, he suffers a lot financially. Once he loses money by gambling, he keeps gambling a second time in the hope of getting his money back. This shows that he is so financially damaged by gambling that he does not get his money back even if he wants it. Therefore, we must keep ourselves away from such gambling addicts and warn others.

Talking about addiction is never-ending, and what we need to understand is why we get caught up in and drawn into this cycle. If we weren't gamblers, those words probably wouldn't have surfaced, and they're difficult to break.

Stepping away from it is true, but once it's started, it can be a bit tricky, in my opinion. We have to defeat ourselves, not our opponents, before we can truly use those words.

I think this is a good response why we need to use our head while trying to make money from casinos. Addiction is real and when it get into you, it can become a problem and hardened to reverse. You can make money today and still lose it tomorrow which is something we need to be aware about when gambling. This happens often when we have made huge profit and trying to make another one t balance it all.

A gambler can be said to be someone who engages in playing of games and betting in expectations of money or risking money hoping to win more money in return  and such games could be casinos , lottery, online games and sport betting, even if an individual don't play regularly and he play once in a while such person is a gambler.

People always say gambling is for fun and that they don't regret when they loose because they are just having fun and I can tell you that's a way of getting addicted to gambling and once you get addicted to gambling it can make you do crazy things in other to get money and play frequently. A reasonable gamblers bets responsibly and never allow the habit of gambling get into their heads, gambling should be curtailed and not something we involve in everytime, so once you stake some amount of money to get more in return you are a gambler, there is no two ways about it.

Gambler is someone who is participating in the activity that is risking his money to win more money. It's wrong just because someone doesn't bet regularly, then you rule out him from being called as a gambler. There's no specific interval that should be meet to determine whether someone is a gambler or not.

If you're risking your monetary for more money. You are a gambler.

I totally agree with you on that. A gambler doesn't always have to gamble 24/7 otherwise there's nothing that differentiates him from an addicted player. ruling out those that don't always gamble as gamblers is wrong because it is possible for them to be tied up with other activities like work, school and so on. As a matter of fact if you gamble constantly there's a high chance of you be8ng addicted

Even if you don't gamble for a long time but you can become addicted gamblers by playing every day. You can call those who spend at least 4-5 hours a day gambling addicted gamblers. If someone spends the same amount of time gambling on weekends, you can identify them as controlled gamblers. I think the risk of addiction increases among gamblers who gamble every day. To earn, you have to be engaged in other professions and take care of your family and prioritize meeting their needs. And to be engaged in efforts to increase wealth for the future, it is wise to try to increase income by fulfilling professional responsibilities properly.

It's easy to say, but in reality, when an addicted gambler has a losing streak and starts to tilt, their emotions actually take over their common sense.

Yes, and that's where a total nightmare begins, because basically the addict only thinks +About having to keep playing and playing to keep recovering or winning , it's never enough for them, but when that happens it's because it's a chronic case, for me the solution is to quickly go to the specialist and start a treatment, even if it's sleep cures, but don't let them do crazy things.

Lol, what could be more crazier than being a gambling psychopath? I would honestly say that what ever a gambling addict have to do to become free from the addiction, let him do no matter how crazy it is, or whatever a professional therapist has to do, let him or her do, because if we are to be honest, this are trained professionals who will not do anything that is outside what they are trained to do.

Saying this because addiction is very bad, it's one of the worst sickness of the brain that in some cases require extreme measures to get free from, I've been a friend to someone who was addicted to gambling and I know how seriously bad this can be, it's something I won't even wish on my enemies.

Getting addicted to gaming does not take too much time for people to get aquatinted to the gambling lifestyle.
It is only going to take the grace of the Lord for someone that have been gambling fornyears ti finally stopped gambling. This is very rare and that is why once you started gambling, it will be hard to stop whether you have lose more than you have used to staked or you have won more than you jave used to stake.

The willingness to gamble everytime will always be there and it will be very hard for anyone that think they can stop gambling because they have the money. Money or no money gambling addiction is not someone to stop immediately anyone is done meaning from gambling.

I agree with you, a player must know when things are going wrong and that there is something to be done, then in view of these things, one must act quickly so that the bad situation does not worsen, immediate measures must be taken, what should be done Without thinking is to stop the Game for at least a week, while one reflects and controls the urge to Play.

Well in addition to this I think a gambler is someone who takes risks and often makes funds from gambling and staking game to win funds, well from my end I think gambling is shared into two part from my own experience the one who play for fun and ones who stake high and greed runs through them, well from my experience gambling has diminished many people life all through the year it has happened to distract and discomfort many which has caused them to loss their money investment and so many other things.

As long as you take on a game, you are a gambler, it doesn't matter if you gamble regularly or not. The word gambling is used to describe anyone who can stake their money in expectation of something, just like bettors better on live events.

The only place I can place some sort of difference in gambling is for those who have the urge to gamble all the time. They don't know when to stop like they have lost control. Those set falls under the category of pathological gamblers. They are not just your normal regular gamblers who still have control over their decisions.

Some people say that those that don't gamble regularly are not supposed to be called gamblers but that is not really accurate, like what you defined, gambler is someone that stakes an amount of money hoping to make profit so even those that don't engage in it regularly are also regarded as gamblers. people mistake a gambler and what it also means for someone to be a gambling addict

[LUCKMCFLY]

Stepping away from it is true, but once it's started, it can be a bit tricky, in my opinion. We have to defeat ourselves, not our opponents, before we can truly use those words.

Competition is optional in the game, We as players must know that we should never compare ourselves to other players Other players are who they are because of their Personality and their way of betting and seeing the game We can never be the same I see it as a Complex that leads to nothing good, We must be ourselves and accept what happens to us in the results of the game.

I would say that putting all that aside, we should accept the simple fact that when a person gambles, he is a gambler for that period of time. For example, if a gambler gambles regularly, then he can be called a gambler. On the other hand, if someone gambles occasionally or for a very short period of time, then we can call him a gambler only for the period of time when he gambles. And there is a different definition for those who are addicted to gambling.

Saying this because addiction is very bad, it's one of the worst sickness of the brain that in some cases require extreme measures to get free from, I've been a friend to someone who was addicted to gambling and I know how seriously bad this can be, it's something I won't even wish on my enemies.

It is one of the strongest conditions a human being can experience, whatever the addiction may be, for me it is very serious , I believe that the person should be Hospitalized so that the bad thoughts do not take over that person, some kill themselves, they commit suicide and that is what must be avoided.
