Therefore, every gambler or bettor should keep a notebook or an Excel spreadsheet with all their winnings and losses, which will show absolutely clearly in numbers how profitable this hobby is at the moment?
Also, an excellent test of the absence of addiction is his ability to temporarily give up gambling and do his own thing or communicate with his family. And if such a gambler does not think about gambling very often, then everything is fine with him.
Keeping track of your gambling finances is the right decision, so you can understand how much you have won or lost, I don’t think this will help an addicted player much, but it will be able to clearly show how much you have lost and if the figure is large for you, then this should mean that you should stop. A break is also not an indicator that the player is addicted, because you can take a break and then lose large sums of money, then take a break again while you look for money for gambling.
