Gambling is all about profits and loss, and I believe that every gambler must have experienced both either you are gambling everyday or occasionally. I have lost more than I have won which is a norm in gambling. This is why I only gamble for fun so that when I loss, I walk away happily because I enjoyed the fun of the game. I was once an addict a d lost so much to gamble, but I now gamble responsible and I can control my losses now.
You are absolutely correct and that is what I also do and it has been of help to me and I wish everyone can also have the same mentality, because with this kind of mentality, I believe the high rate of addiction won't be that much and it also helps people to gamble responsibly, that is why it's always advisable to gamble for fun, because if we gamble for fun, even if we lose or win, we be glad and take whatever things that comes our way with good faith even if it's not even up to what we have loss, also having time limits and how much we can also afford to spend can really be helpful because if one becomes an addict, it will really be hard for the person to stop, although having the experience of gambling whether negatively or positively is very important, as they said experience is the best teacher.
My strategy is very simple and can be applied to any type of games, including sports betting, it is that if I have 200usd available, but I want to spend only 20usd, I make a plan where I am going to play or bet only with that money and if I lose I assume my loss and I don't feel bad or anything, because it's the money I have available for that, but if I win it it seems fine to me and with that winning money I can do two things, leave a part to play in another session of game, it means on another day or on another occasion, for that reason this way I can let go of all my emcoines in every sense of the word.
