How long would you stay before gambling?

[Tungbulu]

Or not have any directly.
I don't expect to win on my poker night, and even if i did win i wouldn't take any significant amount, maybe just the money for a beer and maybe not even for that.
Having no expectations, i am not inclined to play more to win more. i don't know if you understand what i mean.

I feel I’d understand you better if i were into poker but unfortunately I don’t play poker, I’m more of sports betting type of guy. But if I try to understand what you’re trying to say, you’re saying that when you go for your poker night, you don’t expect to win but to just ride the wave and even when you eventually win, you’re okay with whatever you win, no matter how small, Ami I right?

Experience does change the way we approach gambling but I do not believe that time is the key factor- discipline is. On my part. I would not be spending much time after I have hit my predetermined boundary be it time or money. Gamblers perceive that the longer they stay the more they have a chance but in the real life. this usually causes the gambler to make emotional judgements and take up bigger losses. As you all said. we learn in experience to manage risk. not to seek victories. The casino atmosphere is intended to have us persist in playing. and it is more crucial to know when to leave than how long we play. Gambling is to be a form of entertainment and not an issue that strains our mind or even finances.

I agreed with you on that, discipline is the ultimate tool that gamblers needs to take with them, which will serve as a shield to protect them from facing the consequences of recklessly gambling and to be informed about their emotions, so as to avoid being hooked up with the pressure that comes alongside with irresponsible gambling, leading them to chase after their losses. Which makes things easier and smoothly for them to enjoy gambling rather than stressing themselves.

I haven't played poker for many months, and I'm glad that my life is filled with exciting and important events that keep me from getting bored. Even though I have a lot of responsibilities that take up all my energy and thoughts, I'm productive, and I love this state of mind. It's because I don't chase emotions in life; I chase results. If I have money, I'll have fun. If I'm only looking for emotions, any unpleasant situation can easily destroy my positive emotions, just like the wind can blow down a house of cards. It's hard to be productive, I know, but that's how the world of successful people works..

Your mindset is great. as results oriented thinking is a good way to remain down to earth. In my case. I would continue spending a limited amount of time in gambling as a purely entertainment activity. not as a means of purpose and or earning. When it begins to impact my work or calm of mind. then I know it is time to take a break. Personal development and life obligations must be put at the forefront. Gambling may be simply enjoyable and even distracting, and it is the ability to set boundaries and to know when to quit that maintains the situation when everything is under control.

I agree with you about discipline, but to be truly safe in gambling I think discipline alone is not enough, there are still other things that are needed, which include maintaining self-awareness considering that gambling can be very tempting, besides that you must also ensure that you set the right goals such as only coming for entertainment, because if for example it turns out that you gamble with the aim of making money then no matter how much planning you have and how good your self-discipline is, usually all of that can be very easily forgotten.

[LUCKMCFLY]

My duration of stay in front of gambling is actually based on my attitude and discipline at the time. I no longer believe that I should be gambling many hours since that is where one normally makes errors.

It's very true, I've seen a clear mistake, but only in physical casinos, and that is that many elderly people stay for hours and almost fall asleep there at the slots. They keep playing and playing, even if it's just one coin, but they keep trying, they don't give up. So that's bad. I've even seen their families go looking for them so they can rest, and in the end they lose. It's incredible, but that's a mistake that's made in physical casinos. The same is true in online casinos; things are just as dangerous.

Some most of us we Claim that we are gambling because of entertainment whereas the major purpose of us to gamble is to make profit, let me use this as a point of explanation, in Trading everyone who goes into trading they are motive of trading is to make money but in gambling people fell not agree and their purpose of going into gambling is to make money why people who is into gambling make their own official that the purpose there are into gambling is to make a profit, so my question is that, what is the difference between gambling and trading

Those who claims that they are gambling for fun might be saying the truth and even though they chose to disguise is their business not mine, that is why whenever I see someone claiming that he or she is gambling for fun I don't doubt it instead I will be happy since they are doing the right thing. but I believe there are some people who are pretending to be a fun gambler when their major aim of going into gambling is to make profit, although most of those who are gambling for profit might decide to change their mindset at some point and then start treating it as fun.

I think it's better to choose gambling for entertainment, not to gamble to make money. Those who start gambling with the intention of having fun, gambling does not become a part of their life, so they can control their emotions. Whatever the result of gambling, they stop gambling for a while, so they can gamble according to the right rules, and protect themselves from the terrible effects of gambling. And those gamblers who start gambling with the main purpose of getting rich quickly, as a result, the terrible effects of gambling completely around their lives and cannot protect themselves from the terrible destruction of gambling.

The only result you have to expect my dear is to have fun, if you win then good, otherwise never mind.
This mentality, that of expecting results, is what pushes you towards addiction and frustration if you don't win. It's absolutely wrong.

When you commit to a fanbase to some club, the time you spend at the gambling house wouldn’t matter much because, you just might not be actively gambling but, can watching the games and having a good time but, should you be out there for the gambling, then it becomes of much importance that you have some good money management skill and a great hold over your will power in other to spend more time at the gambling house. If you ain’t got that in control, then you probably should get up and leave once you exhaust your bankroll otherwise, it’s just going to keep calling to you for one more round and the promises of a win is never absent of your thoughts.

I concur that gambling is just like entertainment and not something to rely on an outcome. As an individual. I would just remain as long as I have planned and have a budget. When either of these limits is taken. the time has come to go. no reason. Probably. by staying longer. they will go after losses or overconfidence following small wins. The attitude of one more round is a dangerous one. which is difficult to manage. Discipline is important. as in case of lack of discipline even a visit might turn into unnecessary losses and regrets.

[Mandoy]

As a disciplinary gambler you should meant to have yourself coordinated before gambling, I mean you can also allocate specific funds to be using to gamble, also you can spend maximum of 30 minutes or to about 1:30 minutes while gambling and for that, you have also arranged the amount you could be using to gamble and whenever the amount is exhausted you can quit and stop at that moment and even though you are at lost, it is not advisable or encouraging to start chasing what you had already lose while gambling as it would make you become easily so addicted. To maintain a moderate gambling you must be disciplined otherwise you can't even control yourselves or thinking of letting some percentage of your funds you have been using to gambling to let go without you recovering them back.

I concur with your argument. on discipline being the most important aspect of gambling. Pre-deciding on a definite budget and a time constraint, such as 30 minutes to 1.5 hours. will discourage emotional choice. When the money given out is used, it is very important that the money is terminated as soon as possible. although this may be frustrating. One of the quickest ways to lose control and get into bad habits is to chase losses. Taking losses as a part of the game and moving on is very self-disciplined. Gambling can easily transform into a big problem. unless one sets the limits and the right mindset.

To understand The statement we need him to do more clarification because at one point he mentioned if he wins, he will withdraw some amount for beer meaning he is not taking everything out of the casino which ultimately means he will continue to gamble with the remaining balance, so in the real sense he keep chasing more winnings while having fun as poker player.

If it’s true as you say, maybe he enjoys his style of play so he enjoys playing poker that way just like I do, since I play poker that way too. I play to enjoy the game which makes me think, even if not all the time.
But if it’s not as you say, I don’t know what his motives are. Perhaps he has his own reasons for playing, because everyone has their own motives or perspectives

[xenomorfo]

It's easier to say that "the only result you have to expect is to have fun" although this sounds good but it's very hard to stick to having fun forever because there will come a time when you will get enough of that fun and then you will be trying to get something different, at that point you might start looking into profit. I know how difficult it is to only focus on gambling for fun I'm still wondering how you guys do it because I tried to focus on having fun only not that I don't gamble for fun but at some point I think about profit I think this is normal because there's no way you will gamble without expecting wining at some point.

so do you enjoy spending money? if so, go ahead

no one tells you that you don't have to spend money or that you have to spend little money, no one points a gun at you to play or not to play.
we must be free to do what we like, but we must take responsibility for what we do

The same is true in online casinos; things are just as dangerous.

Online casinos are dangerous due to their accessibility, because even children who are not of legal age can register in it if they buy kyc documents, and this is now very easy due to the fact that AI can forge any documents. Remember, binance was recently deceived into dozens of verification records due to the fact that they allowed fake documents to be sent to them. And of course, online gambling is dangerous because of its comfort, because you can easily lose while sitting in your chair and not going anywhere. It's like a trance.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Imagine, that you turn that $7 to $500, wouldn't you stop. Will you just continue till you llse it all. This why, you need to set a time limit for your gambling activities so that, you can stop at the right time without losing it all. I have a gambling budget and a time limit that enables me gamble responsible and stay disciplined.

The most logical thing any player can do is to keep going because we feel lucky, but believe me, in my experience, if I have between $7 and $500, I withdraw them almost without thinking. Why? Because of the same experience I've had in my gambling sessions over the years. I might keep playing, but if I was risking it with $10 or $5, this time I would do it with much less. I would give a $10 risk advantage, and if I lose it, I wouldn't play anymore.

Actually they arent dangerous, it is just that on peoples actions on what it makes dangerous on which they've been giving out some service on offering those online games and other forms of entertainment and its up to someone whether they would be playing in control or having no moderation at all. It would be that in all of your own discretion on the moment that you decided to play gambling. How long would you stay? Anything would really be just that depending on you on which the most common indication on this is on the moment or time that you had lost up your bankroll on that particular day. Its not bad to gamble but make it sure that you would really be making yourself that being responsible into your actions if you dont want to mess up your life then you should really be that careful into the actions that you are doing and always be wary and responsible with it.

[Decimetre]

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

In principle, I have understood and known about gambling for a long time, but I have been really active in gambling for about 2-3 years in total.
In short, as long as I am optimistic about games and gambling, I only spend between 2-4 hours, starting to play at 03 at night and ending at 06 in the morning.

In the case of the time I spend gambling, I will adjust and manage what games I play, for example Roulette I will only maximize 2 hours, win and lose, I will end it when the time reaches 2 hours in the game.
So, Time is very important for me to maximize gambling and I continue to carry out targeted management of funds and limits, no matter if I win big or lose it all, when the time comes, all the games are finished.

Having your self tamed to that lifestyle is good. When you can be able to control how long you spend gambling is the good step to take. Sometimes, you will be thinking that you are going to manage the money you are spending but you will end up exceeding that amount you will spend and loose beyond what you planned. But setting a time to spend on the site is a good approach. At the end of the time, win or loose, you quit for the day and rest. This way you won't loose all your money trying to recover your lost bets.

It takes too much discipline to be able to train oneself to quit after a time frame order than when your money has finished.

I concur with both of you. that discipline is a central factor. but I believe that it is most effective when used together with definite boundaries and self-understanding. Long term gambling tends to make emotional judgments. particularly in an attempt to make up or trying to win. This is the reason why it is necessary to establish a definite budget and time prior to commencing and follow this budget strictly regardless of what. Risk is also minimized by having the correct attitude towards gambling. as entertainment and not as a means of gaining money. Ultimately it is more significant to know when to quit. not how long to remain.
