I would want to know how you feels whenever you are gambling (I mean bet) and you had about 6-8 legs of bet and it happens that the last match cut off your slip. Would you place additional game that same moment your game cut off or you would want to distance to the gambling site maybe whenever you have the right mindset to gamble you continue gambling again?

Let's discuss to have different overview on how people gamble.

Gambling addict has been a problem of most gamblers. Most gamblers started simple but end up becoming an addict. This develops gradually until they become fully addicted. Gambling addiction progresses are in three main stages: the winning stage, the losing stage, and the chasing/desperation stage.

Winning stage: Gambling addiction starts off with the alluring winning stage, where everything seems perfect, and you are winning more often than you are losing. It's easy to get hooked at this stage, because of the thrill of winning, and the gambler still believes that they are in control. However, this stage is usually short-lived.
Losing stage: Losing stage follows after the winning stage. Here, you start to lose significant amounts of money, but since you know what it’s like to win, you continue to gamble, believing that the next win must be just around the corner.
Chasing/desperation phase: This is when you have lost so much money that you will do anything to win it back. This may involve lying to friends and family members, borrowing or stealing money in order to gamble, and chasing your losses. By this stage, it is extremely difficult to quit, since the gambler is in so much financial ruin that they are desperate for money.

CONCLUSION: Gambling may be a great problem if adequate measure isn't take. One should just to observe himself/herself for necessary changes in case one observed he/she is gradually becoming an addict.

people often talk about ways to prevent and stop addiction to gambling but how much is actually in our control? we know that addiction is caused by chemicals in our brain making us more tolerant to certain stimulants which raises our desire to be stimulated more

we can try and gamble responsibly and have a very strong self control but when it is the chemicals in our brain that does the work how much of the addiction can we prevent? can we train our brain to never get addicted or is it almost inevitable?

With the recent rise in gambling activities especially even among the elderly those seen as elders who supposed to be advising the younger generations about the genders of gambling getting involved in related activities, infact if you enters a local gambling shop in my country you will not no an elder from a youth because you see elders also engaging in gambling especially virtually sport betting.

So am asking the forum what do you think is the cause of the rise in gambling related activities in our society is it due to bad economic situation or simply addiction?

Let have your view please

I’ve often seen people win phenomenal sums through gambling, yet I’ve noticed that their behavior never changes, as if they play not just for the money but also to satisfy their gambling addiction I don’t say this to offend anyone, but I also hope there are examples of people who have changed their lifestyle after winning and turned to investment
As a gesture of good faith, I would appreciate it if you could share your experience and provide a valuable perspective on managing emotions!!!

I have been using this application for almost a year now, and I can say I have never gone to the point of winning from playing different games in their Android app. Some will say I am just unlucky, but I really doubt that. Stake.com made me feel like a winner or just giving back what I lost after playing in some of their slot games.

The question:
Is there a chance that a regulated local online casino like the name that was mentioned could control the RTP, the house edge, the RNG, or anything possible that can be controlled so that they will have the upper hand to the extent that almost every gambler will have so little chance of winning?
This ain't butthurt but more like from experience and usage of the said online casino. I didn't record or stream any of my rolls, but I can see that whenever I win something, I lose on a streak and double the winnings that I make when I lose (the profits and the capital + more). I think it ain't healthy, especially with their motto of "Fun Fun lang" which means "Just have fun."

How can a gambler have fun if the experience is "losing" at every deposit that he makes? When did losing become fun? Anyway, this will be my last time playing with their application. I hate to say it but I feel like I have been robbed.

I believe that if we're playing a game with a house edge, where winning depends purely on luck, then bankroll management doesn’t really matter.

What you deposit is already intended for gambling, so whether you go all-in or divide it into smaller bets, the reality is that bankroll management won’t change the odds. It just adds an extra layer of stress in making decisions that, in the end, won’t really affect the outcome of a luck-based game.

Anyone else noticing this? I mostly just use Insta but what’s kind of funny is I never saw gambling ads until just recently and in fact, maybe two of the recent four posts I’ve found,  I found were for” dual bits” the current campaign I’m in. I thought this was really cool. I know I took a screenshot somewhere. I will have to dig it up to add to this thread but again I’ve also seen others and just curious if anyone else is seeing the same they tend?

I've heard the phrase "making a living in gambling," but I don't know if there are actually people here who have pulled it off. So, this thread is me asking, are there any users who can prove that it's possible to make a living from gambling?

I'm talking about gambling that's not purely based on luck. I'm sure you're aware of games where skill plays a role like poker and especially sports betting, which is pretty popular.

Is anyone here doing this long-term? If so, I'd love to hear your insights because I'm interested in following this path.

I'm very curious to know of all the folks in here that gamble, did your parents gamble when you were growing up and is that the reason that you gamble as well? Or is the very reason that you gamble was because your parents shunned it? I feel like this could go either way. It could also be a neutral stance.

For the folks whose parents didn't have anything to do with it when did you start gambling and why? Do you have anything or any memories you'd like to share of past gambling experiences? Would love to hear

Honestly, I can’t get into mobile gaming the same way. The sounds, the designs, the rewards are all the same, but something just doesn’t feel right. The small 6-inch screen doesn’t do the games justice! When I’m on a computer, I feel like the visuals and overall experience are so much better.
I think this is why so many online casinos don’t invest in app development (and instead focus on optimizing the site for mobile browsers)… I think they already know that players tend to focus more on the desktop experience than anything else. So paying a big sum for an app seems like a waste of money to them.
What about you guys? Have you ever had a moment where you felt mobile gaming was better, or is the desktop experience always your go-to?

To be brief, i was in a discussion with my friends at home and one of them said he lost every penny he had yesterday in gambling and that he is thinking of a come back. It was so funny because its crazy to say you want to come back for the house or casino because the casino the house (casino) or market has an active unlimited funds, meaning they can outlast gamblers with small bankroll.

And then i thought about the Gamblers Ruin Rule. I explain simply to him that anyone who keeps gambling for a long time will eventually lose all their money, especially if they don’t have unlimited cash. If you're playing against someone with way more money than you (like a casino or the market), they can afford to keep going, but you can’t. No matter how lucky you are at first, if you keep playing, you'll most likely go broke in the end. After much argument he still made his decision to bet with the next payment he will get tomorrow.

I’m asking because I feel like I might have a slight issue with my gambling habits. I typically gamble around 4 hours daily, though not continuously. Considering I have 16 waking hours after sleeping for 8, that means 25% of my day goes to gambling.

I play a mix of slots, casino games, and sports betting, basically, whatever's available. My philosophy is, the more, the merrier. How about you? Care to share your own gambling routine?

Some people earn honest money and occasionally gamble for playful fun, while many others face a lifetime of misery by being chained to their addiction. If you ever want to change, the key lies in your mind. Learn a bit about dopamine* addiction, there are some great sources and answers on youtube.

*"Dopamine is a neurotransmitter and hormone produced in the brain that plays a key role in sending messages between nerve cells. It is involved in various functions, including mood regulation, motivation, pleasure, and movement control." 

Question: Are there some "non-addicted" players here who have suggestions to help others be more controlled?
Do you want to be free of gambling forever? Start TODAY before more months and years pass by.

i was talking to a friend some time ago and our conversation got to the point of gambling and AI!

in our discussion it seemed pretty cool like AI can predict accurately and so on.

i would like to know what you guys think about the development of AI in this modern era especially in gambling!

You can feel so good while gambling and winning. This makes you think you are good and later losses will begin. You will continue to gamble and continue to lose. Funding your gambling account more. You will later calm down after all the coins you have in your wallet or the money you have in bank are all gone. This will definitely happen to addicts but probably it can happen to newbie gamblers.

Have you gambled to the point that you gambled and no money left in your bank and on your wallet?

As a gambler, this is one of the things about gambling that you should keep in mind. Do not chase losses because while chasing losses, you are in a very dangerous moment.
