Depending on gambling in the first place is never a good thing. Betting some would be fine as long as you can bear losing. No matter what game you engage yourself with, whether cardgame, dice game, sportsbetting and such; winning won't be certain. So choose what would give you enjoyment atleast, 'coz that would make your bets more worthy. What makes gambling bad in the first place is gambler's assumption of getting rich in an instant. This is more likely because of stories wherein players have earned huge reward from playing, without considering how much that player have lost during the 'run'. Everything would be based from luck or one's fate.
No one is immune from gambling as long as they have a hobby in sports, but to what extent can people be responsible for the gambling decisions they choose? This is what you have to avoid, namely the mindset of getting rich quick without working smart at all like the fairy tales that we often hear behind the success of people at gambling. More precisely people can't avoid gambling if they don't want to, there is one piece of advice that I often hear "Habit will lead you to addiction".
Therefore avoid irresponsible gambling, gamble only when you can afford to lose money and avoid interpreting gambling very close to wealth. In fact, getting rich does not happen because relying solely on luck and engaging in gambling using small amounts of money will not make people richer either.
We can play as much as we want, as long as our own limits are respected, that is, we have a capital set up to lose, because it is what we have destined to play, that capital cannot be regretted if it is lost in the game , because it is known that it was destined for that, if we are clear about those things or those premises we can play with complete confidence and as we wish, but if the money is lost in its entirety, it must be respected in not Playing anymore,because if it is appealed to that Money is going to be taken that is destined for our daily expenses, be it for food, the market, for the family, it is what should never be done, basically it is to play responsibly.
