My main focus on this thread is in this question: as a gambler do you place your bet according to the weight of your financial need or you're always okay with whatever amount that comes out as potential win no matter how small amount?
When I plan to gamble, I usually aim to spend around 15% of my income on deposits at gambling sites. I play casually and with small bets. If I win, it will be something good, but sometimes I lose quickly, making me angry and emotional so I deposit again, and again. Until my money was almost gone, the conditions were very bad. I don't do that often, but I have done it once or twice.
I don't have a winning target when playing gambling, I don't target a certain number such as having to win $100, $200, or $300. I use my feelings, if I feel like I've been playing for a long time and I'm starting to lose often then I will withdraw my money and come back tomorrow or next week. As long as I still think logically then it will be fine. But when greed come, it often has bad consequences
