I have been gambling on the internet or at real life gambling dens for a great many years. I have found out, the habit can take a hold of you and you won’t even see it up till you are beaten. Specifically if you are on a profit streak. I have been through uncounted thousands of clams in a very tiny period of time and even today, I sometimes go a bit too long. It appears you are just enjoying yourself up until you make a decision to consider your loss and the blame settles in, and then you continue advising yourself "I am able to gain it back" at length. It doesn’t work. Then you feel icky in your gut and the more you attempt the more rapidly you lose.
When you discover that you are ahead, STAY in the Black! When you begin to fritter away, do not inform yourself, "well only maybe one more" and again and again, believe in me, this scheme RARELY ever operates. Say you are gambling on one armed bandits, keep an amount set aside before starting your action. DON’T go over this boundary, no matter how tempting. If you happen to gain, put the winnings in an alternate pot. Don’t wager your earnings regardless of what happens. Once you have gambled through your original set cutoff, stop. Back off, regardless if it’s on the web or in a land based gambling den, do not stick at the tables or machines. Always keep in mind, there certainly is other days, other times. Clearly, this process can work for any game that you bet on, be it bingo, poker, video poker, keno, vingt-et-un or any other game.
Remember, wagering should be FUN not backbreaking, appalling work! If you are not enjoying yourself, you do not belong there. If you can’t pay for the loss, don’t ever begin.
