First to explain why I write this essay. I have been gambling online or at land based casinos for a great many years. I have learned, the fixation can grab a hold of you and you won’t even realize it until you are beaten. Particularly if you’re on a winning run. I have gone through countless thousands of dollars in only a short amount of time and still on occasion, I will go too far. It seems you are just having fun until you decide to track your losses and the guilt settles in, and then you continue to tell yourself "I can get it back" repeatedly. It does not works. Then you become queasy in your stomach and the harder you attempt the faster you lose.
When you see that you’re up, STAY on the UP! When you start to lose, do not tell yourself, "well perhaps one more" and again and again, believe me, this concept hardly ever operates. Say you’re betting on slots, have an amount put aside prior to starting your action. DO NOT go over that boundary, no matter how appealing. If you actually win, put that in a different canister. Do not risk your winnings no matter what. As soon as you have gambled through your primary set limit, call it a day. Head out, whether it is on the internet or at a brick and mortar betting house, don’t stay around. Always keep in mind, there will be a different day, another time.
Remember, betting should be FUN not exhausting, nauseating work! If you aren’t having fun yourself, you don’t belong there. If youcan not manage the loss, don’t even begin.
