Have you ever noticed how gambling gets frustrating when you aim high but your capital is too small?

Like, let’s say you have a $10 bankroll but you’re aiming to win $500. Most of the time, you end up frustrated and then you lose control. You start chasing because you realize you're way too far from your goal, and your bankroll is quickly disappearing.

It’s happened to me many times. That’s why I think it’s better to do the opposite: start with a decent capital and aim for smaller, more realistic wins. It keeps you grounded and helps you manage your emotions better.

A lot of gamblers have unrealistic expectations and that's why they end up getting disappointed when they lose. Setting targets while gambling means that you are ready to get your heart broken. Even bettors too, it's crazy when they decide to embark on a rollover bet, making a significant amount of money just by flipping your profits consistently over a period of days is risky because at anytime you can lose it all

You are right, especially with the first part of your comment, gambling is not an activity that requires those participating in it to be setting targets, targets are only necessary when engaging oneself in an activity where there is a guarantee of a positive outcome, something that is completely nonexistent in gambling, and to something like this, my friend would always say it's stupidity, that is setting on Target on something you are not even sure of what the outcome will be..

I seen some persons set crazy targets like they want to turn $100 deposit to $1000 in 30 days through sports betting, for some gamblers, they are well lucky enough to achieve this and even exceed it, but for others, they fail and end up in big disappointments, it never makes sense to be setting target on something where a positive outcome isn't a guarantee.
