The main idea is that you mustn`t believe that you win. If you gamble just for fun - you easy lose and win some money that you are ready to lose. I don`t sure that we can reduce the number of losses - we continue gambling and continue to lose, but surely we reduce the number of stories how someone lost all his money and have nothing to eat.
What if we just have fun and don't think about the end result so that we don't expect too much to get a win, especially a big one. I think it will be better because our goal is just to have fun playing gambling and if we have already lost, we will exit the game and not continue playing again. It will reduce the story of our defeat and we will also have money to use for other purposes.
This is the best way for the gambler. We are getting fun and don`t cares about win or lose. There are lots of things except gambling that need my money, but the same time nowadays we have to much stress situations and we need something to relax. The gambling is good enough for this purpose.
