Learning From My Betting Failures

[ English ]

1st to clarify why I write this article. I have been gambling on the internet or at physical casinos for many years. I have learned, the addiction can grab a hold of you and you won’t even notice it until you are broke. Especially if you are on a winning run. I’ve gone through many tens of thousands of dollars in a very short period of time and to this day on occasion, I will go a bit too far. It seems you are just having fun until you start to pay attention to your loss and the guilt settles in, and then you keep telling yourself "I can earn it back" repeatedly. It never works. Then you feel queasy in your belly and the harder you try the quicker you lose.

When you notice that you’re up, remain on the UP! When you begin to lose, don’t tell yourself, "well just maybe one more" and over and over again, believe me, this plan almost never ever operates. Say you are betting on slot games, have an amount set to the side before beginning your play. Don’t go over that limit, regardless how alluring. If you happen to succeed, put that in a different cup. Do not risk your winnings no matter what. Once you’ve gambled through your original set limit, call it a day. Head out, whether it’s on the web or at a land-based betting house, don’t stay around. Always remember, there is going to be another day, a different time.

Keep in mind, betting should be exciting not backbreaking, sickening work! If you are not having fun yourself, you do not belong there. If youcan not manage the loss, do not even begin.
