I don't gamble like a compulsive gambler so I don't need to track or test myself to see how my gambling activity is and whether I'm on the wrong track or the right track. I'm not too excited about gambling. When I'm not working and I have completely free time, I gamble to pass the time and it's very small. I like to gamble with small amounts of money as much as possible and my amount is never more than $100. My lucky number is 70 so I gamble with $70 most of the time and the winning ratio is high. I don't know how it happens and I don't think I'm smart enough for it. I think I'm on the right track.
Your gambling approach doesn't look like a stressed gambler. Keeping track of wins and losses only makes gamblers more frustrated and stressed - and may even lead them to try something even more financially damaging. Many gamblers try to chase wins to cover their losses - instead of winning, they end up losing everything.
Gambling should be like that - use a limited amount of money, limit your time and just enjoy the game. It doesn't have to be anything ambitious and of course gambling is not a job even though many people do it on a daily basis. But I have to say about addiction - you don't have to be compulsive to be addicted to gambling, generally speaking you are an addict to gambling if you do it repeatedly.
I know that gambling too often can lead to a kind of addiction, so I try to play 2 days a week. Although some weeks I play a little more. Recently I have been gambling too often because I was winning so often. But I have brought myself under control and convinced myself that this could be the cause of my addiction.
Yes, I definitely gamble with limits, I never let my deposit amount exceed $100. And I only deposit once a day, which is within my rules. Because I know very well that if I make a habit of depositing multiple times even after losing, it will arouse my emotions. That's where I might lose with my emotions, and become addicted, which will be a serious loss for me.
