How long would you stay before gambling?

[HONDACD125]

You need to understand that being disciplined in gambling goes beyond just setting budget and limits, it’s one thing to a budget and it’s another thing to thing to stick to those principles and limits you’ve set and it requires a great deal of discipline and self control to do this. If a gambler has mastered discipline, then he sure doesn’t necessarily need to write down some list of budgets or rules before knowing what to do.

Great point. I've always said the same thing whenever this thing was being discussed. It doesn't make any sense for someone to make a budget or decide a limit for their gambling sessions when they don't have any self-control at all, because only creating a limit on paper isn't going to stop you from excessive gambling, it should be in your mind and nature to actually control yourself and don't let your emotions override your plans, and not every gambler can do that, only a few gamblers actually acquire that level of self-control and discipline.

When you have control over yourself and your emotions, and you should know this because no one can know you better than yourself, so if you know how you are by nature, you should know whether doing something will be effective for you or not. So, if you know that you have enough self-control, you don't really need to decide anything, because you can simply stop gambling whenever you want, and you should know when the time is right for you to continue gambling and when it is to stop.

The hours spent in gambling is like your added experience.

This applies to those who learn from their experiences. But are you aware, is it you or a friend beside you who makes the same mistakes when gambling? If done over a long period and not realized quickly, what happens is addiction.
The time we spend gambling does influence whether we become addicted or not. If you allocate a small amount of money for gambling, that might be okay. But if the small allocation is done routinely every day, it could become a problem for your finances. Also consider setting limits on your playing time.

That is their problem.

If they don't learn from their personal experiences, it is for them to figure that out on why they have become addicted.

While they allocate time and money to gamble, they have to be aware that there are consequences that we shall accept if we do it.

So, those experiences if we recognize it will help us for the better good of ourselves. Otherwise, if ignored.

As a result, gambling becomes just a means of spending my free time and I enjoy that time. I am still very vigilant in terms of addiction.

That's something that needs to be viewed from a positive perspective because it's the best thing to do. Addiction is a problem caused by a lack of control Personally, I now see gambling as a way to entertain myself and only play with money I'm willing to lose, It's like an adult service where I get paid all the time through my enjoyment , even if I don't win.

The reason why so many people dont even know the reason why they are gambling is because they donr understand gambling. Understanding gambling gives people the reason why they gamble and understanding gambling too is the reason why people are able to gamble with the amount that they can afford to lose and also help one to have limit in gambling. Gambling is a game of fun if only one understand it and playing for fun will be the reason for gambling.

Gamblers first gamble by watching someone play or by watching the promotions of influencers. At first, the winning and losing aspects are very appealing, but this attraction gradually turns into an addiction. Gambling sites also offer relatively high winnings to new accounts to attract players. And then they gradually start losing. And at that time, most gamblers become emotional to recover those losses, thus creating a deep addiction. These are the things I've noticed among all the addicted gamblers I know

I concur with the fact that it is the knowledge of gambling that matters. In my case, the duration of staying until I gamble would be dependent on the state of my mind and the finances I have at the time. When I am under stress, I am facing losses or gambling my troubles away, it is also a good sign that I need to take a full step back. However, when I have surplus funds that I can really afford to lose and I am playing just to have some fun, it would be a controlled behavior. Gambling must never be a matter of life and death or money. As soon as you know it is a game, you get your limits straight and it remains enjoyable and never rules your life.

This infact is and should be the original mindset investors should approach gambling, because if you ask me, I'll say its actually the safest approach to gambling. When gamblers learn to prioritise gambling as a way to have fun and entertain themselves, they automatically place themselves in a position where they won't have to struggle to control their emotions when gambling because they'll know how to manage their risks, knowing too well that they are just doing it for fun.

If they allocate small amount of money and treat that amount as payment to enjoy then yup, they'll be able to save their butts to lose a lot, though it's tough to conclude but it's doable as long as you have that control over your emotions and you have capability to make a hard stop, a self-will that will maintain your treatment towards gambling, that will keep you away from chasing your losses and spend more time and money for gambling.

You are totally right about this, most people don't have the ability to control themselves when they are into pressure of losing money and this often come with a feeling that won't be favourable and acceptable for someone to exhibit. That is why people are always persuaded or encouraged to gamble with the amount they can easily afford to lose and be happy about it and this can be possible, if they are aware of the rules of gambling and sticking to it, helps to make their decisions which can be helpful and supportive in controlling or being in charge of their emotions and keep them in the right path of responsible gambling.

The problem only starts when the gambler gradually forgets the limitations, in the first case a gambler with a mentality of accepting losses, plays small amounts, but later the mentality of most gamblers changes. Gradually those who start expecting to get back the money they lose, thus they decide to exceed their limitations, and from this stage their situation starts to worsen. So if we see it as a way of entertainment, then we should play in a controlled manner while maintaining the limitations, not as a way of profit, because the decision to profit from this type of gambling will only make you addicted.

As long as we are aware of what's happening to us, then I think we are safe, and we can avoid gambling addiction.

I tried playing slots for a long period of time in the past, but all it gave me was frustration. When you keep on playing, the chances of losing more money also increases and I think this should be the reason why we set a time limit on how much we will play.
To avoid spending too much time in slots, what I drilled into my brain is that gambling sites or online casino applications are not going anywhere. They will be there waiting for us, so we don't need to rush things. If we think we already lost a good sum of money that could've been used for other things, that's the time to stop.

If one sees gambling as entertainment and is aware of one's limits and risks from the beginning, then the chances of making big mistakes due to emotions are reduced. One should be aware of one's own capabilities and maintain a sense of responsibility, the problem comes when one starts thinking of it as a sure way to earn and mistakenly starts playing too much. But we must stay away from these, we must first limit ourselves to safe limits, unrealistic expectations are the root of most problems, so if we are very careful in these matters, then it is possible to avoid problems in many cases.

Thats how someone should really be that treating gambling in the first place on which they should really be treating gambling for the sake of fun and entertainment and not for making money or trying out to get rich from it. Duration on how long you would be staying with gambling is that totally depending on how much time you are spending into it but it should be something that talks about your vacant time because spending up some time with gambling on which it do already affect out your daily routine or your responsibilities. Its always talks about on how sensible you are on the actions that you are taking and not just thatmaking up some decisions or dealing up into something on which you do seem that it would be that affecting you negatively. it would be that just that too impossible  that you cant be able to determine on whats good or whats bad.

When you do play gambling then you do need up to have such control and moderation on which this would be only talking about on how much money should be spent and on how much time you would be putting up into or simply you do know on how to put up your limits once you do have busted up your entire bankrol for that day.

Well, you expressed yourself very well, and the mindset you share here is very much needed for those who are still in confusion. In my view, if they accept one thing that gambling is not a get rich quick scheme believe me, all the problems will be solved. But the real problem is those who treat it as entertainment , they do not believe them and go for the money. We see them in losses and traps, but still, their minds don't work, and they go again and again. If they are treating it as an income, then why don't they understand that income means money coming to you? Here, the situation is the opposite, the users money goes to the casino, but they still act foolishly and don't understand this simple math.

Gambling has it limitations and and it will not profitable for anyone that tries to gamble in a way that looks desperate enough to cancel the possiblity of making profits. Some gamblers are still struggling with gambling with what they can afford to lose. Majority do not care about the other outcome but only focus on staying profitable when the casino that is providing the services are also looking for ways they can be profitable when they gamble. Gamblers need to gamble less without desperately looking for any way possible to make money.

[Sonia_123]

This is must look facts towards gambling and if people where taking their time extremely careful and serious before gambling we would have received less reports towards gambling addictions.
Of course this looks so common but it matters while gambling, can also look at the time you spend, how much you allocate when gambling this would enable you culture yourself properly while gambling and it would also help to reduce gambling addiction as well.

What do you think about the total hours spent while gambling, does it also attributes to how quickly you could become addicted to gambling?

As a responsible gambler, the first thing you need to do is to have a budget plan in time and bankroll management in other to avoid addiction if strictly follow your set down plans and should only be going to the gambling site with that amount which you will be gambling with for that day, also one has to have self control while gambling, because you find out that some gamblers even breaks the rules they make for themselves and go about having additional funds and time because they can't control themselves.

Yes, problems or bad effects will arise when we gamble by forgetting the boundaries that we should obey with the aim of avoiding bigger problems and bad effects but because the boundaries are forgotten or ignored, addiction and other bad effects will appear and we experience. It is very possible to go from good gambling to bad, although it depends on the behavior of each of us who do it but it is true that the temptation of gambling is strong. The perspective on gambling that is done as entertainment is very better than doing it as a source of income or profit because it is true what you said when we gamble in a way to get profit it will only make us addicted.

gambling must always follow all my responsibilities are met and I can only gamble with the money that I am able to lose. I do not make it a form of profit making but as entertainment. It all starts off when an individual starts to pursue losses or anticipating stable returns. Such change of attitude may gradually result in the loss of control. Gambling can always be merely a leisure as long as we are disciplined and do not overdo it.

Time management is also needed to be a responsible gambler so you will set how long you can playing gambling and will quit gambling if the time is almost runs out. You will not forcing yourself to play one more time because that can attracts you to continue playing.

Strictly to follow your plans will avoids you from gambling excessively and with discipline, you will become a responsible gambler. You know when stopping gambling and you don't have a specific target to reach in gambling and you just spends time by playing gambling and knowing to stop.

One way to do good gambling is to use money that we are ready to bear the risk of, so when the money used for gambling is lost, we can accept it, which is called being ready to bear the risk. With you doing it as a way of entertainment is good, because it is indeed a mistake when we do gambling with the aim of seeking profit, because the profit or victory in gambling is not certain to be obtained, if we are lucky then victory can be obtained. loss of control when gambling is real, many people experience it, so it's true that you say gambling will become a normal activity and not cause bad effects if it is done with discipline and limits.
