I gamble according to my mood, I usually play after work and spend a lot of time weekend to play gambling. Comfort is important, sometimes I need to gamble in a real casino to get more experience. Losing money in gambling is common but most important thing is comfort and able to control emotions.
Your mood may become your enemy in more quicker time then you expect. I mean to say if you are following your mentality to gamble or not to gamble then after some time your mood will enforce you to gamble more frequently regardless of what are responsibilities you will be having.
I mean to say your mood will guide you into the wrong directions. When you will be having normal mood you should plan for when you may go to gamble and then you should follow those plans more strictly. Otherwise I am sure one day or another you will find you will be gambling all the day long out of gambling addictions. That may seem very dangerous part of your life. So, please avoid following your mood from now onward.
