Who is a gambler?

[Orpichukwu]

Giving emotions chance to control your gambling and even makes you neglect your already established rules is never a sign of good gambling practice, the reasons why there is rules is to govern and control once move and must be obedient to that in other to become a good gambler. Before we started gambling it has been in existence and with same rules so i don't think there is need over ride it because of greed or other related reasons

Is emotional control also not part of the rules which a gambler must set for himself before embarking on that dangerous quest? Anyone who lacks self-control should not be gambling in the first place. Gamblers don't need others to set gambling rules for them, but the gambler needs to be very careful not to fall into what people outside have been warning gamblers against.

Once a gambler is addicted, it's assumed that they have lost all their set-out principles and are only interested in getting their urge to gamble satisfied and knowing how to win all the time or going after all their losses, and it's a very difficult state to pull out from.

Yes, that's true When a person is addicted, it's because they have lost fundamental values ​​of selfcontrol, and in this case, action must be taken quickly because any addiction is dangerous For me, it's something that needs to be treated urgently and shouldn't be delayed, If there are friends or family members who can guide them towards quick treatment with psychologists or other professionals, it should be done.

An addicted gambler can actually be disciplined too but they are filled and control by the ignorant. Some addicted gamblers even have all the knowledge and orientation to guide them into becoming very responsible gamblers but because of how sweet they have find, they completely lose control because of the urge to either win jackpots and become rich overnight or in a short term.

Some of the addicted gamblers were once in control of their gambling activities before they later started going against their own rules and lost control.

When you know a gambler is addicted, is when the rules they once set for themselves does not really matter anymore..  At that point, it is no longer about fun again, it is just them feeding the urge..
They are chasing wins that does not exist and trying to recover losses that will just keep getting bigger.. And the scary part is that once someone gets to that stage, pulling out is not easy at all..  It takes a lot of self awareness and enough discipline to break free, and people do not even realize how deep they are already..

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.

A gambler is basically someone who risk something of value on an uncertain outcome such as a bet, casino game or game of chance in the hope of winning. Some people gamble occasionally for fun often called casual gambler while other gamble regularly even for a job like professional poker player and are sometime called gambler

In my opinion a one time slot spin doesnt make someone a gambler in the normal sense, its more like a pastime. Theres also a clinical side to it lol,, in the extreme those who cant control their gambling and its harming their life fall into the category of problem or pathological gambler

Being described as a gambler doesn't really matter, but what matters at the end of the day is whether gambling is affecting you negatively. Being described as a gambler doesn't change the kind of gambler you are, and if you understand gambling very well, know your limits, and gamble with an amount you can afford to lose, and you are not addicted to gambling, then it means you are doing well; you shouldn't bother about what people say about you.

Yes, exactly, we shouldn't give importance to what people say about us Besides, nobody is going to approach us to tell us what we really are or anything like that out of fear; nobody does The truth is, I say that when we make a life and have one based on what we decide, it's our life, not someone else's. We can't live according to what others say we have to handle these things from that point of view.

When it's about struggling towards winning huge funds to become rich then it's no more about the sweetness or enjoyments of the games but about greed from the part of the gambler hence setting them on the path for addiction.

Yes it's true a gambler can get rich overnight with an extreme luck where he hits a jackpot but this occurrences are one in a million and they're not attained by efforts and strategies but pure luck and if you ain't lucky you just be destroying yourself into addiction as you keep forcing it that it's a get rich or nothing.

People who are obsessed with a quick way to get wealthy are not always able to notice the very high danger of shattering our financial future as a group. When the major reason is only to accumulate your wealth without any real basis, we are going to be on the path of a few dark, deep pit of emotional devastation. You are correct in that basing life on pure luck being the only way to do so will harm how we view the real economic reality.

In literal terms, once you deposit money into an online crypto casino, it means you’re already prepared to lose that money, regardless of the amount. It all depends on you especially once you start placing bets on your chosen games using either fiat or crypto assets.

This is where our journey as a gambler begins. It’s often followed by getting completely hooked because we’ve experienced a win, which is usually what leads people toward gambling
addiction most of the time.

A gambler is that person that takes risk with his money not minding the value, the chance or any , situation he finds himself with the hope of winning back is money or some valuable, these gamblers are well determined in achieving their goal, they don't rush gambling but gradually and responsibly achieve their main purpose of gambling and we have different types of gamblers, those that gamble for the fun, those that gamble for money and those that takes gambling as their profession as a means of livelihood.

A gambler has his own time of gambling, in as much as the gambler has not quit from gambling, he still remains a gambler no matter the gap intervals he uses in gambling.

A gambler might not be chanced to gamble daily because of circumstances or nature of his job but he knows when to gamble maybe monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annually, as long as he stills gamble he remains a gambler.

Obsession is destructive and blurs a man's reasoning towards anything he's doing wether it's that dangerous in the consequences or not. And when a man is obsessed with wealth he should go build legit business, not to come into gambling with the hopes of such obsession that he can be wealthy from it. Even with accumulation of little winning bets you can't still be wealthy as you can lose all accumulated winning in one greedy bet due to  obsession to make quick wealth.

Such an obsession can only get a gambler into trouble. First of, it'll be a very terrible mistake to turn to gambling for wealth generation, inasmuch as gambling is capable to actually generating wealth, it's crucial to understand that this is based on luck, and not by obsession or consistent chasing. Such obsesiion to make money would actually be advantageous and more useful if channeled elsewhere into something that isn't as unpredictable as gambling.

A gambler is someone who risk all their  money on bet or use their property to bet thinking that they will win more since they have spend more, any person that can't do without gambling everyday is a gambler, A gambler can also be call an addict, people have different reasons while they gamble, it can be for fun, while others gamble to make more money, which is very dangerous, once someone start using gambling to make money or means of survival, that person may not come out of it.

No, you have it all wrong, that's not who a gambler is. what you are actually describing is an addicted gambler. This is someone that takes irresponsible risks like gambling with everything they have and selling their properties just to gamble. A gambler on the other hand doesn't go in that same direction of an addicted gambler because they are able to control their actions more than an addicted gambler.

You’re getting it all missed up, a gambler is someone that take on a bet using his money as a bait to get profit and it doesn’t matter how many often or frequently one has to be in the casino that will determine if one is a gambler or not, while, an Gamble addict is someone that frequent the casino everyday to stake a game with whatever funds he have and if he lost he’ll try again and again to recover his lost. In cases where he cannot recover his lost, it’ll lead to him selling his property to get what he wants. What myopic conception.

That is the importance of self-control, where we must realize that addiction is a bad thing and it will cause problems, so the way to avoid addiction is to control ourselves as best as possible when gambling.

You're right, once addiction has set in, immediate action must be taken to address it because delaying it will only make the addiction worse. It's fortunate if there are people close by who are professionals such as psychologists or others because they can provide quick assistance.

With the manner at which casino influencers and ambassadors presents gambling bet winnings across different social media platforms nowadays it's very difficult for some persons to not think that they can make some high money which can make them rich if they can just get into gambling and be very serious at it. The bad thing about obsession is when you're channeling it on the wrong things it would definitely destroy you than building you up.

Yes, because without these types of professionals, things would be a complete disaster, as there would always be many problems in continuing treatment. It's not easy when a person is far advanced in their addiction; it's difficult because there will always be things to say and do, and there wouldn't be as many strategies as there are now with professionals who specialize in this field. The support of family and friends is also essential.

As long as you gamble with your luck, that is, as long as you keep betting in the casino, you are a gambler, but if someone gambles for a while and then gives up gambling completely, then we do not call him a gambler, but if a person keeps gambling continuously for a certain period of time, we can still call him a gambler. Because he is constantly playing with his luck, that is, he is betting to change his luck or to test his luck. And a gambler is called a gambler.

Emotion is what makes us human, even me that lose money to casino do get upset sometimes but why the reason isn't because the game control me, I'm just annoyed because of my decision and how it turn out later and because of that, I try my best the time to get it right. This is how I handle my failure and work on my next game so I don't make the same mistake over and over, this is the best way to use emotion to improve your ways of gambling instead of getting angry over nothing.

I think the real gamblers that we have today are not many, what we have today art hustlers that are trying to flip their money for another value. How many gamblers can actually say they are gambling for fun and not for the money. Many will say otherwise but that'd the truth. Gambling should be fun but there is nothing bad when momeh is part of the objective but it's bad when money becomes the center of everything you do as a gambler.

A constant craving for gambling, a strong desire to play and test one's luck constantly or too often, can be considered a gambler in my opinion. For many, this definition is different, and everyone defines what a gambler means to them, but I see that many people agree. For example, I wouldn't call someone a gambler who makes five bets and then forgets about gambling for six months. They have no craving to test their luck; they can live completely without it and not worry about anything.

In such times, the situation can be really dire if professional advice is not sought. Especially when a person goes too deep into addiction, the mental state of that tide is so bad that there is no alternative to experienced and trained specialists to handle them. In such a situation, everyone has to help the gambler to get out of the addiction, in such a situation, the gambler is not in control of himself, so he has no idea of ​​right and wrong about his actions. That is why both professional help and family support are necessary in getting out of addiction.
