How do you classify reckless gambling as?

[Julien_Olynpic]

To be honest, I didn't understand much of the explanation in the opening post. All I understood was that when the author exceeds their betting limit, they begin to play with varying degrees of recklessness. In my opinion, the most important rule is to adhere to limits. In other words, you need to not only set limits for yourself but also actually adhere to them. If you set limits for yourself but easily break them, it's the same as having no limits (or risk management).

OP did not post that he is gambling beyond limit, he posted that he is only using 15% of his weekly income to gamble and not gamble more than it. He also posted that he keeps to his rule. So not that OP is not discipline at all but his friend still think he is gambling recklessly. 15% of weekly income can be too much for some people.

Based from what you described, your actions don’t really fit the definition of a reckless gambler. Recklessness usually means chasing losses, breaking limits, and acting on impulse, while you clearly set a budget, stick to it, and stop once it’s exhausted. That shows control and awareness, which are key parts of responsible gambling of a user.

Sometimes people judge gambling based on frequency rather than discipline. To someone who dislikes gambling, even controlled play can look reckless from the outside. It’s fair to feel uncomfortable being labeled that way, but your consistency and self control says otherwise.

Yeah, I have been called reckless gambling by a friend as I do gamble frequently but I often maintain responsible gambling, but this friend of mine keeps calling me a reckless gambler. At first when gambling, I make sure my money used to gamble doesn't exceed my budget and I do allocate 15 percent of weekly/monthly income to gamble and whenever this allocation is exhausted I do not care to gamble anymore and I am also stick to my rules and regulation whereby even though I am gambling and I ran into lose and exhausted my initial deposit you wouldn't see going further to make additional deposit just to satisfy the urge at that moment.

Please I would like to know if any body who is actually keeping to his rules and regulation without aggressively keep gambling can be called a reckless gambler? I do not actually like such words, though I wanted to start reacting to him based how he do sees me gambling and before that I just want to know what you think about his consistent action towards me. 

I would not say you are a reckless gambling, because the most important thing is that you are gambling within you capacity and not exceeding the budget you’ve allocated for gambling initially..
Even the fact that you don’t get that urge after you have exceeded you initial capital is a sign of discipline.. For me I would not consider how you gamble as reckless at all..
Just ignore him, maybe he has his own personal reasons for seeing it that way, but for you you are not a reckless gambler..

As long as you are actually keeping to your rules by not going beyond your budget, you are totally in charge by knowing when calling it a day and take a break then I don't consider such player a reckless player but when you do contraly to what is been mentioned above then you are good or even worse than a reckless gamble.

For me I do allocate some amount of money to my gambling stuff but immediately it is been exhausted that is all for that day and that discipline mindset of mine has being very useful and helpful to me over the years, so as a player it is healthy to always stick to plan else you learn the hard way.

A reckless gambler is someone that gambles carelessly without any limitation on his gambling activities. In future, if care isn't taken, a reckless gambler will become addicted and frustrated.

From what you said in the OP, it shows that you hare a responsible gambler because you have a gambling budget and stop the game at Thebes right time. However, may be the percentage of your income that you have assigned to gambling is what makes your friend think that you are a reckless gambler. I gamble with only 2% of my invome.

It is very important  for those who gamble regularly to follow some rules. The first thing is emotional  control. If we can control our emotions, then the chances of failing in the field of gambling  are less. I can  make the right decisions in most areas. And it is  very difficult to control this  emotion.
The second thing is to set a specific weekly budget. Depending on my income, I have to set a specific budget for gambling. If we can not control our emotions , then we are more likely to become reckless. And this is the first step to becoming addicted to gambling. If we cannot control our emotions, then we will become  reckless. And gradually we will become addicted to gambling.

Reckless gambling usually starts long before addiction shows up. It begins when limits are ignored and decisions are driven by impulse instead of intention. Someone may feel in control because they still have income or because losses are small for now. That sense of safety can be misleading. Over time careless habits slowly expand until frustration replaces enjoyment. Addiction is rarely sudden it is gradual and quiet.

Having a budget already separates responsible behavior from reckless behavior. Stopping at a planned point shows awareness and discipline. Where misunderstandings often come in is perception. What feels reasonable to one person may look excessive to another depending on income habits and values. Percentages matter because they anchor behavior to reality. Using a small fixed portion like 2% makes risk visible and contained.

you allocated not bad amount of money from your monthly income, my budget is only 5% from my monthly salary,
i set such amount of allocation which is not affected anyhow if i lose in bet, it would not be called reckless gambling in my understanding,
small budget can not be consider reckless gambling, it seems responsible gamble, reckless means not limitation in deposit and also aggressive gambling,

[Promocodeudo]

When we gamble without taking a break or gambling with what we can not afford to lose, meaning gambling above our means, I think that's what I call reckless gambling.
But I ask why can't people just keep to the rules of gambling, there has never been a time, it was said that we should gamble without break, I think people fall into traps because of they fail to at least gamble within the confined of their daily weekly or monthly budget for gambling purposes, many of us that are gambler knows that we can actually device means of staying safe as gamblers but choose to deviate from it as they get along.

Maybe he thinks you are spending too much thereby crossing into the territory of being reckless but as long as you are sticking to your own boundaries then there is nothing wrong, best thing to do is to tell him what you just mentioned in this thread of yours, you have a limit to how much you gamble and you do not cross that limit, if he knows them maybe he will stop categorising as being a reckless gambler.

[Outhue]

A reckless gambler is someone who is so selfish to themselves, they have no limit to how much they can waste on gambling, they always prefer to work hard and earned money then risk and lose everything on gambling, someone who is smart will learn his lesson after such result happened but not a reckless.

They put their gambling habit before themselves and others, they can starve themselves just so they gamble, and they are the fastest ones to get addicted to gambling, I always avoid any friend that shows signs of been a reckless gambler, they always end up hurting those around them, when they run out of money they will start borrowing around and they surely will never pay you back. Some people will be better off not gambling, they lose control easily.

[Uhwuchukwu53]

When a gambler has passed the limit of not accounting what is spending on gambling, for me is already reckless, accountability is one thing that .makes a gambler free from recklessness because emotion won't control the gambler as limit is already known and can't exceed. It's very bad been reckless in gambling because it can incure diverse  losses and many deeply addicted as result of that which they can control if care was in place.

[Text]

for me reckless gambling is not about how often you gamble but how you control yourself while doing it. Honestly that doesn’t sound reckless at all that sounds like controlled/responsible gambling. A reckless gambler is usually someone who gambles w/o a budget, chases losses, borrows money to gamble & can’t stop even when it’s affecting daily life as long as it doesn’t harm your finances, responsibilities/relationships & you stay w/i your limits you’re accountable for your choices not reckless.

[maydna]

People say what they see without checking what really happens. That is why your friend keeps calling you a reckless gambler because he doesn't follow your gambling activity. If he sees how you treat gambling well, he will not say you are a reckless gambler.

I classify reckless gamblers as those who can't be responsible and control themselves in gambling. He doesn't care about his funds yet he keeps adding more money to win. He doesn't see gambling as for fun but for other things so that makes him keep gambling.

Just let him be, people say what they like even when they don’t know what the actual reason or major goal of the person is. You are not a reckless gambler and I really like how consistent you are in your gambling activity and not making excessive one based on your budget. Your friend may just be saying that for you to feel sad and want you to quit gambling, or for some reasons known to him, but this is not a bad approach towards gambling.

Neglecting his ranting could be one of the best way for you not to feel bothered about all that he is saying. Gambling is well played when even your mindset is okay and not feel bad about your spending in playing. When you’re doing too much than you can afford to lose, your mind can easily tell, so this should not be a cause for big alarm in the process.

Well, if he's reckless he'll definitely not will follow his rules set if he just want to gamble moderately. I don't know at what exceed to be called a reckless gambler but I think the reaching point is something that gambles their needs, keeps chasing losses and ignoring even when already in deep debts or stress.

In as much as gamblers refuse to follow instructions of gambling, that is how they will continue to gamble recklessly, which will make them or lead them into addiction due to how they can’t control themselves during gambling, in which they will want to double their money through gambling which will result them in chasing their losses.
So, having the habit of disciplining themselves whenever they are gambling will save them from a lot of financial losses, stress and anxiety.

[Maus0728]

I think that there is only one set definition of what a reckless gambler is, it is basically just someone that has no control on how they do their things and they basically have no discipline and they are easily tempted by something that is specifically targeted to them. Basically they are just a euphemism for a gambling addict.

15% for gambling is a lot of money if you lose it every month. I think that's why your friend calls you that, because a good player will have variable results, one week a good player may win and withdraw the winnings, another week he may be less successful. But if you only deposit money to lose it completely and do this every week, or when you receive a salary, then in this case we can say that gambling only takes money away from you and 15% is a lot. You could just as easily spend 5% at lower rates and lose significantly less.

Anyone who keeps to his promises of gambling without being moved by emotion is not a reckless gambler. A reckless gambler is one without control, the one that gambles without self control, he lacks decipline and doesn't take advice from anyone. He sees all what he does as the best without considering if it's good or not. He onlyrealises his mistake after it has been done. From the op I don't think you are a reckless gambler. Maybe your friend should provide more evidence to prove you are One.

Good, you're saying something right. I also didn't understand the opening post very much, but what you say is right. If you set yourself a limit, you have to respect it. This way you avoid taking unnecessary risks and avoid going over your budget.
