B: Be disciplined; the above example won't be possible if you are not disciplined or rather when you do not have self control. Be mentally smart when gambling so you don't get carried away.

discipline is something that gamblers need to do if they want to gamble responsibly. without discipline, a gambler will find it harder to manage their gambling and they may gamble without limits. gamblers can learn to be disciplined by setting limits on the time and money they spend on gambling and they can accept losses and not chase them. with that discipline will not only help gamblers to gamble responsibly, but also make them enjoy gambling more and not make it something that makes them addicted and destroys their lives.


You are right, but practicing true discipline is not as easy as many of think it is, discipline isn't just about making a decision, but it has to also do with having the will power to stay true to it.
I personally have come across several gamblers who claim to be gambling responsibly by them making sure they discipline themselves not to over gamble or do what they have not initially planned for, but over time, many of this persons ended up in one gambling related problem or the other, some even borrowed money to gambling, ended up losing it and found it very difficult to pay back the money.

So, who ever wants to practice responsible gambling and won't be serious about discipline isn't really ready, one must ensure to have the will power to practise true discipline at all times.
