Do you gamble regularly?

[Kemarit]

Gambling regularly is a really tempting act expecially when you new in it. Because as a newbie in gambling mostly when your first was a win. You would always have this urge to want to gamble more (on a regular). I did also when I was new in gambling and it was not pretty at all. Was favouring at first better lateron became ugly I end up leaving my wallet dry without any wins😪 and then didn't have much Idea about gambling guess was gambling irresponsibly 🥲. And have to give gambling a break. So gambling on a regular ain't healthy atall and is not encouraging though mostly to newbie but still they are some individuals who gambling on a regular as favoured 🤷

I call that first experience the trap experience because it's almost as if the casino is kinda playing you tricks because believe me there is always that feeling of wanting to get more and like you said if you are a newbie to this then the urge is hardly resistable . Most person that turn out to be so crazed with their gambling are those that started very early so I believe it affected their mental and social life making them urge and crave so much about gambling.

Yeah, that very first experience is a trap as we are lure to play more and more because of that feeling or winning or even losing, as it we wanted to get that adrenaline in our body. And if you look back, LOL, maybe we have regrets on that feeling because now we are addicted or at least lost a lot of money in gambling. Might be just random chance for us and win, or maybe we don't know that much or ignorance of odds and it work to our advantage initially. But as we mature and learn, it become complex and yet we still gamble and believed that we can win and more more and big, but it's not the case.

To avoid many things, like gambling addiction or similar things, what I do is organize what I have, primarily what I do is go find how much money I am willing to lose, for me that is the handbrake for everything , because it is the only power I have to buy a casino and play as I please, if I have for example 50usd I divide it into 5, and every day I play with 10usd, for me that is what I do, I don't know if others see it as something silly, but frequency may be important, because if we play once in the casino and we like it, we will be back the next day with the idea of playing.

So that is a very nice way to diversify the days, at least 5 days seems fine to me, because let's consider Saturdays and Sundays to be well and with the family free, that is what I see, however if it is more then the But if they want jsmena, they allocate another balance, but I don't recommend it, this is how I do it, it's simple, but efficient.

There are many people who gamble three to four days a week and spend the next time they have on other activities and abstinence. Many gamble every day of the week and those players will most likely lose money. There are also some players who bet only twice a week and successfully win.
When I used to gamble I used to play every day of the week for a time but I have lost a lot of money here which has stopped me from gambling. Although it is very hard work, I have been gambling for just over a month, I have almost become addicted to gambling, but I slowly control myself from gambling and have to give it up because I have lost more bets than I have won. And I lost more money than I gained in the one month I gambled so I stopped gambling for now.

Do you gamble regularly or every day a week or two or three days a week?
Do you still stick with gambling or have you stopped yourself from it?

Regular gambling is an addiction and those who are addicted to this addiction lose many valuable things from their life without even realizing it.  It may be money, dignity or something else.  So he should not play regular gambling at all.  If he wants to live a normal life.  I myself was once very addicted to gambling but later I got myself under control and now I gamble a lot.  It can be one day in a week and sometimes 1 day in a month. And I think it's better to keep yourself within a limit to control yourself and avoid the bad addiction of gambling.

I don't gamble and I don't want to gamble but I had a very extreme experience from my boss at a real job.
To be more precise, I don't know if my boss gambles every day or not, but the effect of his gambling is that he loses money equivalent to a brand new Honda SUV and this is very expensive.

Maybe if I became a gambler I wouldn't want to gamble every day because it would take up time for my work and family.
But I don't know because my desires always change all the time. I'm talking now because I've never gambled, but after getting to know gambling, maybe I'll just end up gambling.
That's why I don't want to gamble because personally it's better for me to just spend time with my family rather than having to gamble all the time.

Well for me this depends on what kind of gambling you are in because some games consume more of your time than others. Just like lottery it doen't need a lot of time for you to stay in a lottery booth while slot games, card games and any others it will eat up all of your time so much better to choose the best game that suits your entertainment and time.

Seeing my campus friends who gamble online almost every day seems very scary because every day they gamble continuously and ignore their college assignments.
My campus friends who gamble are not just one or two people but more than 3 friends and many even play online gambling on their own smartphones.

Gambling is their right and I have no obligation to forbid them from gambling, but it would be better if they didn't gamble on campus because it's unethical.
The campus is a place to study and gain knowledge, but my friends have turned the campus into a place for online gambling and most of it is done in the canteen when taking a break from studying.

Anyway, thank you for the advice and for providing the best gambling for me if I gamble.

I only have the best principles for myself and my small family because there are many sayings that say a person's physical and spiritual health will be shaken if they engage in gambling directly.
But if we discuss it like this, as I can only imagine, giving advice and various discussions about gambling will not affect our physical and spiritual health.

There are many examples around real work and those who gamble but end up in misery, I don't want to follow their path because I still love myself, my family and friends in the real world and on the altcoinstalks forum.

Indeed, gambling is a right that individuals have, but as a friend, you need to make them understand that their gambling activities are not appropriate. They are in school to study, not to engage in gambling with their friends. Despite their parents' efforts to send them to college, they are wasting their time by gambling instead of focusing on their studies.

It's important to be a positive influence in front of your friends, especially if you can become a good role model for them. You can offer helpful advice to your friends in a friendly and supportive way, which can guide them towards better choices and behaviors that will benefit them in the long run.

It's not that I let them continue gambling, but I also often remind them like I would my own friends.
For example, I give advice like this: "Hey mate, let's do our campus assignments immediately, hopefully we get good grades in the future."
But what is their answer??
The answer is like this: "relax for now, friend, later we will also get good grades because the lecturer doesn't care about us either."

Their answer was like they didn't care about the grades for their courses and I, as their friend, was also very sad to see that.
I have often given them good advice, hopefully one day they will focus back on their studies and their gambling can stop slowly.

The response you got from your friend is the most expected response. The same as when I was a student, I said those words to some people I know. However, if your friend find gambling more interesting and is always willing to risk the allowance received from their parents, this is not a responsible behavior.

I don't think there's anything you can do given their current condition. They only see you as a fellow student and believe that they don't need to listen to you. Perhaps if an adult, such as their parent, college professor, or someone they respect greatly, spoke to them, they might be more willing to listen.

Unfortunately, even parents cannot influence such behavior. In such cases, it seems to me that the best way out for them is to talk to the players who at some point lost control and their lives deteriorated. A bad example is always very clear, it's like the future, only here and now. And it has an effect! Having seen several interviews with problem players at the time, I realized that I would never lose control in gambling.

What you said is exactly right, that's exactly what I felt at that time when I told them to stop gambling first to immediately do their assignments.
Even though the task is not too difficult because it only involves making daily reports using Microsoft Word, it is very easy and simple from my point of view.

Maybe it's also because I'm a college friend from the same class so they don't care about me so they ignore me.
But I'm also not sure if their parents give the best advice to their children so that they don't gamble or maybe their parents won't see them gambling at home.

I can relate to this. It is more painful when you consider that most college students skip classes because of gambling. Well, I am not surprised that is what addiction is capable of doing to a college gambler. They gamble with money meant for school fees, textbooks, and feeding.

In the long run, this makes them easily frustrated when they lose and then affects their academics. Gambling regularly is dangerous for a college student due to the mental and emotional stress it can create for the gambler coupled with the natural stress which comes by virtue of being a student.

This is a great way to help students understand the harmful impacts of gambling. Hearing from someone who has actually experienced it can be more effective than just receiving advice from others.

That could very well be the case. If you're just their college friend, they may not feel inclined to listen to your advice. They may only be willing to consider advice from someone the same as above statement who has personally experienced the negative effects of gambling.

Exactly. Long time gamblers especially the older ones has this priceless experiences that will guide the neophytes or those who has plans to take part in gambling activities. We can learn things from their mistakes and of course the do's and don't's we need to be aware of to lessen the odds and risks of doing stupid actions in gambling.
