Re: Drinking vs Gambling

Alcohol and gambling can be very addictive for people who lack self control, that is why a lot of negativity is attributed to both. In my country alcohol and gambling adverts are in strategic locations for many people to see them, they're both also online and on TV. If I want to compare between gambling and alcohol the one that is more harmful and it's addiction can be very damaging than the other I'd say that it's alcohol. Gambling addiction will make you to be broke and always emotional but alcohol addiction will mass with your mind, when you're under it's influence, it takes control of your senses. Alcohol addiction can cause many health challanges which gambling addiction cannot cause.
Exactly.
Alcohol addiction can indeed have more disastrous consequences and implications than gambling addictions, and the fact that alcohol influence can make people do stupid things that they may not even be entirely aware of is even more scarier. We've heard of how wild and crazy people can get when under the influence of alcohol, some even go as far as hurting others, only to sober up and start regretting their actions, some don't even remember everything that happened during their drunken state and you don't see this happening with irresponsible gambling, so I guess that settles it.
I believe both addictions have equally negative effects and impacts, and I don't think they're all that different. For example, as you mentioned, when someone is under the influence of alcohol, they can hurt others. I think this can happen to those addicted to gambling, too. Neither is better than the other; if done excessively, the consequences are equally devastating.
Regret for past actions depends on each person's awareness. Once someone has fallen deeper, it will be difficult to return to the right path.

Re: When you're winning you can't sleep

This may be more about our individual perspectives. Gamblers who crave winning won't easily abandon gambling when they win, and even when they lose, they'll likely be tempted to continue gambling, hoping to turn things around. Even if they've already won and perhaps achieved their desired goal, I suspect the urge to continue gambling will still be there, especially since I personally find gambling more comfortable at night. Unlike those who view gambling as entertainment, whether they win or lose, it's easier for them to simply quit and abandon gambling.

Re: Have you been addicted to gambling in the past.

I once experienced a loss of self-control, and the experience of losing a large sum of money in a single gamble made me think I was addicted to gambling. That's when I realized I was addicted to gambling because I was gambling excessively. That experience also made me realize I needed to improve, so I started cutting back on my gambling habits, and so far, it's been working.

Re: Hukum di Negeri Ini

Kembali kepada pembahasan awal tentang hukum di negeri ini dimana terkadang ada sebuah perlakuan berbeda yang terjadi terhadap hukum di negara kita ketika kita tidak memiliki kewenangan atau nama besar maka hukum akan terlihat condong sedikit merugikan berbeda dengan kebalikannya.

Kali ini ada sebuah kasus yang menggelitik dan ingin saya bahas dimana ada 6 orang anggota polisi yang sering kita anggap sebagai "OKNUM" terbukti positif narkoba tetapi yang menjadi lucu adalah hukumannya dimana mereka hanya dikenakan hukuman shalat 5 waktu dan olahraga 3 kali sehari  Grin

Sumber

Jujur saja saya tertawa mendengar hukuman seperti ini dan baru tahu bahwa sesuatu yang sudah di cap wajib untuk mereka yang beragama muslim yang ketika tidak dilakukan menjadi sebuah dosa justru menjadi sebuah hukuman untuk mereka yang terbukti positif narkoba lol.

Ini seperti hukuman orang tua kepada anaknya jika anaknya tidak nurut hahahaha, padahal sekalian saja ancam mereka akan di masukan barak militer untuk mendapatkan pembinaan.  Oknum di intansi ini sudah terlalu banyak, bahkan mereka mungkin bisa mendirikan intansi sendiri khusus untuk oknum. Yang menggelitik adalah oknum juga bukan ada di anggota yang berpangkat rendah, namun oknum juga banyak di para petinggi, ini sudah seperti diorganisir.

Jika terus seperti ini, maka sampai kapanpun kita tidak akan ada perubahan. Padahal jika mereka langsung memecatnya pun bukan masalah, masih banyak yang antri yang ingin menjadi anggota (walaupun harus memakai uang sebagai pelicin juga).  Grin

Re: 3 Fase Rasa Takut Dalam Perdagangan

on 31/05/2025, 14:43:51 UTC
Secara keseluruhan apa yang disampaikan agan @Pusaka benar dan beberapa orang mengalami fase ini, namun ada beberapa perbedaan kecil yang dirasakan dan itu tergantung pada pengalaman masing masing dari kita juga, salah satunya yang disampaikan oleh agan @len01. Mungkin beberapa orang akan relate dan beberapa yang lainnya akan sedikit mengoreksi.

Namun di fase ke 3 saya ingin menambahkan sedikit, biasanya ketika ketakutan itu hilang maka pada saat yang sama akan datang masalah baru yaitu keserakahan. Saya tidak tahu yang lain, namun saya mengalami hal ini dimana keserakahan itu datang dan jika tidak bisa mengendalikan maka itu juga akan sangat berbahaya. Ini fase yang saya alami di awal dan bahkan menimbulkan beberapa kerugian, padahal seharusnya saya bisa mendapatkan keuntungan.
Setiap dari kita memiliki pengalaman pribdi yang berbeda sehingga ketakutan yang kita rasakan juga berbede beda begitu pula dengan cara untuk menghilangkan rasa ketakutan tersebut, apappun itu saya tidak membantahnya karena perbedaan pengalaman yang di rasakan oleh setiap orang.

Menurut saya fase ketakutan itu tidak akan pernah hilang hanya saja kita sudah bisa mengendalikannya dan perihal keserakahan itu akan datang kapapun bahkan ada juga orang yang langsung timbul keserakahan ketika awal ia memulai, jadi antara keserakahan dan ketakutan itu adalah dua hal yang ada dalam waktu yang bersamaan dan tinggal bagaimana dari pribadi kita masing masing untuk bisa menghilangkan itu.
Dan khususnya untuk keserakahan bagi setiap manusia itu ada, dan saya juga mengakui sangat sulit mengendalikannya.
Saya setuju dengan itu, ketakutan pasti masih ada, namun pada saat yang sama dengan pengetahuan dan pengalaman yang kita miliki kita bisa mengendalikannya dan bahkan mungkin kita tahu bagaimana cara untuk mengubah itu menjadi sesuatu hal yang akan membuat kita lebih jeli lagi dalam melakukan analisa.

Misalnya apa yang terjadi pada yang sudah profesional misalanya, ketika mereka merugi maka itu tidak akan merusak mentalitas mereka, karena mereka tahu apa yang harus mereka lakukan agar di perdagangan selanjutnya mereka bisa untung. Mereka akan tetap tenang ketika pasar berbalik dan bahkan mereka sudah memiliki rencana cadangan ketika itu terjadi.

Re: What is the best way to gamble?

on 26/05/2025, 17:59:16 UTC
I don't change the amount I bet when I play slots because I still enjoy it. Those who gradually increase their amount of bet might be those who can afford it, but I can't. But I could say that even if I bet the same amount at each roll, I have won many high multipliers in 5 digits and it was so damn satisfying when I received it. It's because I didn't need to force my way into doing a "martingale-like" bet. What I bet is enough for me, and I don't want to risk too much that I cannot afford anymore.

I think it all depends on each gambler's purpose. If he is really there to win as quickly as he wants to, then he might do the same trick as you said.

Maintaining the same amount as your stake is the best way to gamble especially when you are playing slots. There are people that can are capable of increasing their stakes as they progress but this can be detrimental even if you are doing it for fun. There are no tricks to win in casino gambling, this is something a lot of gamblers fail to understand. You can only get lucky and this cannot be chased.
The best way to gamble is to understand what gambling is, so there will be no excessive behavior in gambling, many people who pursue victory are people who view gambling wrongly where they usually view gambling as a means to make a profit even though it is not like that.
We can get a win when we are just lucky, especially with the type of slot gambling that really depends on luck, besides that I agree with what you said there is no special and surefire trick to be able to win at gambling, but only luck can make us win, the rest we must be able to set limits so that everything is under good control.

Re: Do you want to be free of gambling forever?

Free gambling forever?!? Sounds like a great deal to me. Where do I sign up. Here I was thinking today would be the day I finally quit gambling. I’ve been working towards today for months and right as I was about to quit I see an offer for free gambling! I’m sure glad I didn’t quit. Sending over my deposit now!
Various gambling and casino sites constantly offer different types of bonuses, signup bonuses, first deposit bonuses, daily bonuses, weekly bonuses, monthly bonuses, etc. These bonus offers make users interested, and when a gambler expresses his desire to abstain from gambling forever, he gets involved again after seeing such a free bonus offer. Thus, a gambler cannot abstain even if he wants to.
That is the most likely thing that will happen especially for those who have not been able to get away from gambling on their mind, but for people who have the desire to stop gambling consistently, they might restrain themselves from gambling no matter what, even though they see the big bonuses and promotions that the casino offers. Honestly, gambling is something that does not have to be done by force if we are not able to do it, it is not a problem either.

Re: Gambling ads become part of daily life

I like to gamble, but I never tell anyone, especially my family like my older sister. It's just that one day I heard her gambling and how happy she was when she won, this actually surprised me because I knew she liked to gamble, as time went by she always did it, actually it was her own right, only I was afraid that something unwanted would happen, especially since she already had children to take care of. What I thought was that she knew about gambling because currently gambling advertisements are everywhere, coupled with her own difficult economic situation, it was only natural that she was tempted by the victory in gambling so she did it. What's worse is that my older sister's husband also likes to gamble, this is concerning and worrying.

Re: When U choose to gamble, do you already accept that losing is part of the deal?
by
Jody.Drummer
on 20/05/2025, 15:05:54 UTC
At first, I can't accept I'm losing in some casino and trying to win back my losses (Though it don't exceed $300). Then I realize that I shouldn't gamble for money or chase my losses but rather enjoy playing in casino and if it's sports betting enjoy the thrilling of either winning or losing not only on your bet but also on the team you've placed bet with.

At some point I accept that most of the time that I will be losing but there's still some part of me that there might be some time that I will get lucky and might hit some jackpot in either casino or win a parlay in sports betting.  Grin
Such behavior is certainly something that many people tend to experience for those who gamble, including myself. But I think that with that it can make some people aware not to gamble with the wrong goals, this is good, but this does not apply to those who are addicted to gambling. Gambling with the aim of getting profit will explode in their minds if they are addicted to gambling.
And everyone certainly has the desire to be able to get the jackpot but don't let us expect too much from gambling by continuing to play to pursue big wins, that's a mistake.

Re: Luck and gambling

on 19/05/2025, 11:16:57 UTC
Luck isn’t that important in betting either, because you are the one choosing the bet. The main deciding factor in choosing a bet is the player, what they decide to bet on. If someone is a poor analyst and doesn’t understand the sport they’re betting on, then yes, it turns into a game of luck. In poker, everything matters the player’s skill and what they can do with bad cards. You need some luck to get good cards, but in poker, you also have to know how to play when you have a bad hand.
In other words, it depends on the type of gambling, with gambling like poker or sports betting then what you said is true and the other side with slot gambling then luck is an absolute necessity that plays a big role in making players win because in this one gambling there is no accurate strategy or skill to be able to win other than luck on your side.
I myself assume that all types of gambling require luck as well as games that require strategy or skill to do it, it's just that there is a slight difference here, where some do depend purely on luck and some can increase their chances of winning with a good strategy or skill that we have.

Re: Don't Gamble when you are Broke

A correct statement of course we should not gamble when bankrupt even the rich can go bankrupt if they gamble without being able to control themselves, even though there is a chance to win but do not expect it to happen for sure and will help make things better, gambling is not a solution when we are bankrupt because the victory is uncertain.
What is needed when we are bankrupt is a way out and the way out is with our own efforts but not by gambling, moreover there are still many other things that can be done to make money than gambling, when you have enough income and money at that time gambling is not a problem to do.

Re: I’m rich… because gambling is my entertainment.
by
Jody.Drummer
on 16/05/2025, 19:31:13 UTC
I don't agree completely with you because comparing the investments made by the rich people to gambling which has no sure guarantee of profit is a great error that should be corrected because investment is done on a working business or even property with the hopes of making money over time and with gambling is not so due to the fact that gambling is highly uncertain.


No body has become rich because they see gambling for the sake of getting entainment which is a costly deal to do with the fact is that gambling has been a source of making people to lose money and that is one thing that people should be afraid of
That's right, gambling is a company that aims to make a profit and the way they make a profit is from the many people who deposit money and then bet it with a low chance of winning, it is not true that gambling is the same as investment, there is still a strong difference in these two things, for people who have a good understanding of investment they will get profits that may even last in the long term, but gambling is not like that.

Some casinos provide KYC for their players, this is intended to avoid problems that could occur such as data leaks, I often gamble at local online casinos and they do not ask for detailed KYC, only account numbers and emails, even I think local casinos here do not require visitors to fulfill their KYC in detail, also I have never experienced a personal data leak even though it makes sense if this is a concern because I sometimes feel worried about my own personal data.

Re: The solution to gambling…

-snip

I really want to understand why is that because, it’s a little offensive and disrespectful to the line of business from my view point. Perhaps I can be convinced otherwise with some logical statements of fact!
Gambling is a business of earning income by providing a place for customers to have fun using small amounts of money that they can afford to lose. But unfortunately many gamblers or even non gamblers misunderstand the concept of gambling. So some people will judge gambling negatively and even a losing gambler will say gambling is bad. While they don't really understand the concept of gambling.
You are right, there are quite a lot of people who view gambling wrongly, such as by assuming that gambling is a solution to their financial problems. In my environment, there are quite a lot of people who have financial problems but what they do is bet the money with the minimum amount they have in the hope that it can become more. By instead of making it a solution but with a greater chance, it makes the situation more complicated. On the other hand, there is indeed a chance or opportunity to win but this is not guaranteed, sadly they consider this victory as something that they will definitely get.

Moreover, gambling is actually just a means of entertainment that should be done for no more than just to seek pleasure, I understand that the point of pleasure is in the victory that is obtained but besides that, in this case, our own views determine how our fate will be in the future, with the chances of winning owned by the host are not comparable to the chances of winning for the players, so it is natural that the host wins more often than the players.

Some people gamble even when they are at their lowest point, such as difficult economic and financial conditions, thinking that gambling will be able to make them get benefits that will change their life situation. This is a fairly common problem because some people see gambling as a solution to their financial problems. When you are rich or poor, no one suggests gambling, gambling is done based on your own desires, so the consequences must be accepted, even if you don't want to experience losses, it's better not to gamble.

It should be noted that in my environment there are quite a lot of people who have problems with their economy including finances, but most of them seek solutions from gambling by depositing some money hoping to get profit in gambling, this is the wrong option and not a solution.
And because so many young people do this until it spreads to parents so now there are many parents who like to gamble with the alibi to meet their economic needs, this is ridiculous but true.

Re: Working during holidays

Personally, if some one have family at weekend is most important moment spent with children, wife and your family by taking rest from working, there will definitely be regrets someday for being able to spend time with family instead of having to work until the holidays. Make your decision keep full time working in a week or you must enjoying great moment at holiday with your family or taking rest for your self.
A person must consider one thing that he has to work as long as he lives. That is why he should not work in a way that can cause great harm to his health. If you work on holidays, you can get 2 times or more of the basic salary. And this is why there are some people who cannot control their greed. They give more priority to money than taking care of their health. Every person should give time to his family even after work. When someone can use 1 day of time properly with his family after working continuously, then he remains spontaneous. This time is certainly important for a person, especially for his working life.
Everyone's circumstances are different, sometimes those who work hard forgetting time and health work not because of greed but because the circumstances force them to work hard to support their families or their own lives. I have been in a situation like this, that's why I said there are people who work without caring about time and health just for money to survive.

I agree with your last statement if gambling already affecting you bringing emotional swing it's best to weight in and see if you still can handle the pressure and still able to balance both your mental and financial capabilities.

Unfortunately, many people when they enter gambling, come with the problems they have in the real world and the more they are pressured in the real world with the problems they have, the more they also sink into gambling. For example, I always play looking at it as entertainment, when I see that for example today I have some problem in the real world, then I don't play to avoid my real world problems making me play more than planned.
Maybe like those who need money then the option they take is to gamble so they hope to be able to get a win that can make them happy with their win. When having financial problems in the real world then gambling is not an option to be a solution even though there is a chance to win but what must be known is the chance of losing is greater.
As you said playing with not to avoid problems in the real world.
