True, being confident in our predictions can sometimes lead to losses. This confidence can make us complacent and less motivated to research whether the team we’re betting on and their opponents are actually in good condition. In sports like basketball, for example, we might not realize that key players are absent or injured, which often leads to unexpected losses. It's great to be confident, but we should always make sure we've checked everything thoroughly before placing our bets.

Every time Bitcoin makes a correction, it's actually a good idea to accumulate, especially if you're a long-term holder, because it's like buying at a discount. However, if you want to get the timing right or avoid buying before the price drops further, it's important to learn how to analyze the market. That way, you'll know whether it's the right time to take advantage of the discount or not. For me, it's a great advantage as a long-term holder who wants to buy more during Bitcoin's price corrections.

Gambling addiction is driven by emotional and psychological factors, such as the rush from winning, using gambling to escape stress, and the hope of quick rewards.

And also greed and the belief that they can control outcomes lead gamblers to take bigger risks. This cycle of craving, chasing losses, and seeking instant rewards makes people ended in addiction, until it hard to stop despite the risks.

Many people believe that betting on teams or players with low odds gives them a higher chance of winning, since low odds usually indicate a stronger advantage. However, they often forget that outcomes are still uncertain, and underdogs with higher odds can and do win. That’s why, in my opinion, it’s always better to carefully analyze the team you're betting on, rather than relying solely on odds. Using that strategy alone will more likely lead to losses.

It's always wiser to play only what you can afford to lose, rather than trying to force yourself to avoid becoming addicted to a game that you find highly entertaining and fun. No one can truly prevent themselves from falling into this common gambling issue, especially when there's money involved, as it often leads to repeated playing. Therefore, it's important to set a specific amount for playing and develop a strong mindset. This includes learning how to control yourself and resist the temptation to touch money that should be reserved for essential expenses.

There's no need to be shocked by the results in gambling—honestly, unexpected situations and outcomes happen all the time, especially in sports betting.

I remember this one time I bet on a basketball team that had a clear advantage: great record, full lineup, everything looked solid. Meanwhile, the opposing team had most of their star players out due to injury. Based on the odds, it should’ve been an easy win for the team I picked.

But guess what? They ended up losing to a team made up mostly of bench players—and the underdog odds were insanely good. LMAO, that was seriously unexpected!

So yeah, at the end of the day, gambling is all about luck. You just have to accept that.
