After reading replies from some threads on this gambling discussion board, I see that many people have already delivered suggestions related to various problems of gamblers. Now, it depends on us to follow or ignore the suggestions. Or we can take a look at the suggestions that are suitable for our problems. Here are below:

1. You shouldn't spend much money because it will harm the family. (Limit your funds)
2. You must have good self-control, it is one of the keys to be successful in gambling.
3. You mustn't get loans, you will be trapped in debt at the end.
4. After you can win in a gambling game, you are better to stop. Don't be greedy!
5. Don't expect much to win in gambling, most of them are luck-based. Think rationally!
6. Don't spend all your time gambling, have enough time for family, friends, and society.
7. Etc

What do you think, guys? Are all the suggestions worthed to follow by all gamblers? Let's discuss it, you can give any feedback or opinions.
Please let me know if there are other good suggestions! I will add them to OP if I think it is a nice one. I really hope this will be helpful for us.

It's good to see this words of advice here but actually that's not happening in reality since still many gamblers do what you are saying since they want to have a money for capital in gambling because there are still people denying to accept the fact that they are got affected to much by their vices. But if this suggestions will be followed we can't see our neighbors selling their stuff and other things around Cheesy

.

Indeed, it is not as easy ad making as making a do' s and dont list, applying these things would be hard because it would require self discipline and control which are things that cannot be initiated by most of the people due to urges and desires. The list, are the things which is ideal but still, there are gamblers who are being dragged by addiction and that simply proves the difference between enumerating and making plans from the actual.

Good point OP, taking this perspectives before playing will allow you to have a good mindset and avoid you to make a high risk betting activities. If you have this practice inside you, the risk will be much lesser. Most of the time those gamblers who knows how to handle pressures and didn't listen to their emotional side are the one who able to enjoy and gain decent profits from this activities.

But most of the time, expectations and plans do not meet the reality. That is how powerful money is. No matter how you set a point to stop, once you are hooked up into gambling, it would be hard to escape. Huge losses, frustrations and stress would make a gambler urge for a 'comeback' and hope that he would someday achieve the goal of winning bigtime, not knowing that his losses are bigger already than his desired 'win'. That's how addiction works, if I would say.
