Found this article about not taking risks and it benefitting them. The story is not as relevant but what it said at the start was interesting to me. The risk-taking culture of gambling gets a lot of attention these days far from the floors of any casino: Not only in business — where a willingness to take a risk is an ordinary part of life, at least to a point — but in many other sectors, including government.

Zero risk-taking can lead to stagnation, but too much of it can lead to catastrophe, and the trick is in navigating the difference.


It got me thinking to how this can be applied in gambling. I know that almost all kinds of gambling require some sort of sacrifice and some risk taking but the levels vary. Do you reckon it is better to not risk that much in gambling and just keep playing low risk games and win even small amounts or do you always think that taking big risks is always the way to go?
It depends on how much you have to risk. Some people have a lot of money when they want to gamble, such person may not be too scared to risk alot just so he makes quicker profits and exist, if he chooses to. For someone having very little funds and wish to ask well make some profits from his gambling activities, he should be smart enough to reduce his risk and gamble responsibly. The idea is to stay long enough to that exact game that would make you a good win. If you are able to manage your risk well, you may end your gambling session in profits.

Well I decided to take some risks and despite losing most sessions the last one was a winning one, it shows that reward come to those who persist though never I suggest this to anyone as an advice, only gamble what you can afford to lose and only risk what you can afford to risk. This was, is and remains the golden rule regarding gambling if you want to be safe from addiction, the more exposed to gambling one person is the more exposed to gambling addiction is, gambling addiction does not come fast though when it comes can hit you really badly so stay safe and be prepared by following the simple rules. The best rule of course is only risk what you can afford to risk, if you have 1000 dollars that you don't need then do whatever you like with that money, it is additional surplus to you.
