If a gambler doesn't structure his gambling habit, it'll be easier to become addicted and eventually becomes a degenerate. The answer is to learn a strategy for responsible gambling which will always serve as a reminder anytime the urge to gamble irresponsibly occurs. My strategy is never to chase loses or use wins to continue gambling, I will only use the bankroll that is budgeted for gambling. I can slightly increase the bankroll which must still be amount that I can afford to loose rather than using wins to gamble.
One of the best strategies to apply so as not to get addicted is by working on schedule. Keeping a specified amount to gamble after you must have removed the total amount to be used for your monthly expenses is one of the best strategies to keep you gambling habit responsible. However while using this strategy you can also work on yourself by removing some amount from your wins should in case you make huge profits off that session.
