Winning is hard, why not quit?

[Yorubek]

There's no doubt about it, when we focus too much on the game it's not wise, there's always something that can go wrong and everything goes down the path we least want to take, that's why what we're looking for should only be for entertainment, to try to win and if we don't succeed we must accept that the objective wasn't achieved, the casino was never a source of income, it will never be something that can generate money for us safely, it's all luck.

Moderation should be the way to prevent them from experiencing the side effects of gambling, because anything excess is bad and always result in destruction, which will afflict one with pains and  regrets. That is why one should make sure they avoid whatever thing that will make or lead them into the act of regretting their actions, this is why they are to balance their emotions or feelings, which they are to enjoy the essence of gambling without pain.

It is very important to set time and money to maintain self-control, when we start gambling by setting the right time and money, we will be able to control our emotions no matter what the outcome of gambling. When a gambler can control his emotions and gamble, gambling will not become a part of his life. I think gambling is mainly for entertainment, it is not right to choose gambling to earn money, we can gamble with the money we can afford to lose, as a result, it will become much easi to control our emotions, as a result, we can protect ourselves from gambling addiction and enjoy entertainment.

Everyone can't win at a time, as other people are winning others are losing too and it doesn't mean those that lose will continue losing all times. Gambling is a game of luck if someone won today doesn't mean he/ she is a professional gambler, and gambling is very hard to quit especially those that got addicted to it. A real gambler always believe they'll hit a jackpot some day and with this they can't quit so don't tell anyone to quit because he/ she has been losing.

This made most gamblers not to quit from gambling, because they believed that they will win, as far there is hope and nothing last forever, which they believed their losses won't last forever. But, having this idea will lead them into problems which will cause them more harm to them and to those around them, which can keep them hooked and finds it hard to escape from it. And just try to gamble responsibly despite it might be a tough decision to make.

Yeah i understand you, but to those bettors who are addicted to it that's their believe all their thoughts is if they didn't win today tomorrow meant be their turn. At times they're meant to reason how long they've gambling without no profits someone in a normal sense is meant to quit or give it a break instead they continue waiting for their jackpot day to come .

I think I am not really okay with that mindset of losing today mean you will win tomorrow..

Gambling is not turn by turn like that… it is not like life will balance it out for you. Even if we all want to win, nothing is guaranteed there..  Depending your mindset on my time will come, is where people can get stuck and keep chasing losses…

It is better to see it for what it is from luck, not something you can rely on..

That's not so easy sometimes because it takes a little effort to do it; it's always about having the greatest possible control over everything, but this is something that affects emotions quickly. If we're winning, it's harder to control ourselves. No matter how good a plan you have, you have to be very determined in what you set out to do. It's not so easy because fighting against those emotions and against what we can and are winning is difficult.

Yes but that's just their mindset that if they didn't win today they meant win tomorrow, forgetting that winning is by lock and they don't even know whether their luck will shine in gambling side.

Some of gamblers took this gambling of s thing as a quick way of making money, their mindset is hitting jackpot which is not that easy as they think.

To be successful all the time, you need everything: good money management plus self-control. That's what can guarantee being a more controlled player and staying in the system in an intelligent way. Not everyone achieves that because it's quite difficult. Greed appears at the least expected moments. It's not that we are complacent players, but we can be players who are focused on obtaining benefits.

There is nothing wrong in being hopeful but sometimes a lot of people turn hope to delusion. Hoping to win has really made a lot of people addicted to Gambling. The best way to gamble is by taking it to be an entertainment, trying to make it a source of income is only going to make you addicted to gambling in the long run. But even though you decide to gamble for profit the most important thing is to make sure that you always gamble with an amount you can afford to lose

Meh. I would not even take a minute to discuss with someone who believe one's mindset is important in order to make it big on gambling, honestly.
One's mindset has nothing to do with our success on casinos or bookies, it is just some psychological defense mechanism we adopt in order to cope with our losses and assume there will be good things ahead for us, even though we left the casino with nothing and after losing all our money.

It is rather toxic to assume our mind and the way we see life could possibly influence our future performance on casinos, that is completely false, and the fastest we realize how toxic it is to ourselves and trash it, the better.
It would help us to grow up as gamblers.

Indeed, whatever the purpose you should have and it's a must to make sure to limit your budget and your time, if you have both control and good management, then proceeding in whatever goals you have will still give you same emotions, as you have limit yourself into something that will prevents you from aiming to push for more, the problem occurs when you don't have control and you are not limiting yourself, as you lose a lot and spend most of your time chasing for the hope win to come.

Now for some gambling goes beyond the wins abd the losses.  Reason's being that for some gambling has become a friendship abd companionship built overtime.

Instead of always calling and hanging out with friends some people prefer to keep themselves busy in their leisure times with gambling.

You can not only spend time with friends but also find a new hobby if you don't have one. This really helped me at one point. My thoughts shifted to a completely different process, which allowed me to distract myself from thoughts of gambling. Therefore, I highly recommend this method of refocusing your attention. It's a truly effective and efficient method, which is a necessary step in the recovery process.

With having the idea of how important setting boundaries is, which will help them to control themselves, so that they won't make any hasty decisions, which will make them to lose control and lead them into making things worse for them, which they will be so vulnerable to go against their plans by allowing their emotions to make the decisions for them and by making this kind of mistakes can surely result themselves in being trapped in gambling addiction.

Winning is always the end result of every gamblers, I don't understand the fact about gamblers who are chronic and very much addicted to gamble. Who else know about gambling, not just that but about it been really a toxic category that have the tendency to ruined one's life.

Gamble is good when we bet with our free change and not depend on it as a life changing opportunity. I've seen multiple cases where gamblers are ready to risk everything because it's not funny and they put so much on hitting in the system, they forget how volatile the system have become in the past years.

Gambling isn’t exactly about winning or loosing. That might be the obvious outcome most times but, some people actually gamble for bragging rights. The singular ideal that you are able to make predictions and sometimes you get them right while other times, you might be wrong, it’s another cool thing with gambling. That’s where the fun is and for some, they can see it. Especially when you are gambling well within limit, you would see past the losses and catch some fun but, when it’s all about the money for you, there is no fun there.

You remind me of someone who said; whenever he's bored that what comes out from his mind is slot" then I was like, does it mean slot is the only fun activity he has..... Honestly that doesn't sound ok to me because we are meant to have other fun activities not gambling all the time because if you're too tied with something you might end up becoming addicted to it, I'm not saying that going to slot whenever we feel bored is a bad thing to do sometimes we also need to look for other activities so that we don't get used to one particular activity.

But even if one is good in managing their budget, has a good working strategy and tries to moderate their greed, that just will give them little advantage more than those who don't have those skills, but in gambling it's really hard to be successful using them; it's really rare, and those who successfully become successful through gambling, it's not just by skill – their luck gets it done for them. Some of them don't even pay too much attention, and they expect less from gambling.

The pleasure associated to gambling especially when winning make quitting difficult. Even the hope of winning tomorrow makes it going and tomorrow never ends. A single win out of multiple loses keep ones heart for more hope especially for gamblers that gamble to make money. This is why it's difficult to quit rather a brief break may be given to afford becoming an addict.

The thing is, people don't even want to shift their attention to anything else. They seem fixated on one thing, and everything else simply doesn't interest them. That's how it was with me. Even if they offered me something else to do, I didn't want to, because I knew perfectly well that the slot machines were waiting for me.

Only eventually, when it was too late, was I forced to find a new hobby to avoid returning to gambling. It was a process of rehabilitation. I can't say it was easy, but it was necessary.

He's right in that sense because when we win our hope rises and we like it, well, who doesn't like to win? The fact of having lost so many times for a long time does erase that feeling, and with winning once they still give us the desire not to abandon the game, in the end it's pure fun, we look for those feelings, that's why we don't quit the game, ideally we shouldn't add or spend more money than we should.

Indeed, best to have the fun and not to add more money after losing, those who keep it that way are preventing losing what they can't afford to let go, though there are situation where you wanted to keep trying to win more instead of appreciating the amount that you already won, most of the time chasing for more is harder to resist, as emotion mostly dominates than control your own decision making.
