Do you think that planning out a budget can be a contributing factor to gambling addiction, even though this has some positive sides I think that setting out a bankroll can affect some gamblers negatively. It puts them in that state of gambling because they carefully make plans to gamble with an allocated amount for it. Although this isn't the case for everyone, having a bankroll can also curtail gambling addiction
Even though there may be some things that can be a negative effect, but precisely with the budget that we set from the beginning it can be more able to minimize our gambling with a note that we are disciplined to carry out this.
I always apply this where I always set a nominal for my gambling if it has reached the specified limit then no matter what I will stop if it has run out. So in the end this has become a reminder from the start for yourself to be able to manage existing finances while gambling.
This can be an alternative to minimize us so that in the end we are more awake to control the gambling activities carried out but once again this will be effective if we are disciplined to ourselves and force ourselves to remain in good control. If we are not disciplined with what we have planned from the beginning then in the end, no matter how the strategy to minimize gambling is useless because this goes back to the gambler himself.
If you initially treat gambling as entertainment, and not as a way to make money, then the probability that you will leave much more money in the game than you expected is less. And when we start playing for money, building complex strategies for winning of course, this can work, but then there is a high probability in case of loss to try to win back everything invested, and then the stakes begin to rise, which can lead to even greater losses. A fixed amount for the game and a more relaxed attitude is the secret of self-control.
