I have been gaming on the web or at real life gambling halls for a good many years. I have been taught, the addiction can acquire a hold of you and you will not even see it till you are bankrupt. Specifically if you are on a scoring streak. I have been through countless hundreds of dollars in just a short period of time and at times, I still go a bit too long. It seems you are only enjoying yourself till you decide to track your losses and the anguish sets in, and of course you keep advising yourself "I can win the money back" ad infinitum. It never ever works. Then you feel icky in your abdomen and the harder you try the quicker you spend.
When you find that you are up, STAY in the Black! When you begin to squander, do not tell yourself, "well just 1 more" over and over again, trust me, this technique almost never ever works. Say you plan on wagering on slot machine games, have an amount set aside ahead of starting your play. DON’T go over that cap, regardless of how tempting. If you happen to profit, put that in a different pot. Don’t risk your profits no matter what. After you have gambled through your original set limit, stop. Back off, regardless if it’s on the web or in a real life gambling hall, don’t stay around. At all times remember, there certainly is another day, another time. Obviously, this plan is able to function for any game that you enjoy, be it bingo, poker, electronic poker, keno, vingt-et-un or any other casino game.
Keep in mind, gambling should be FUN not backbreaking, sickening work! If you are not enjoying yourself, you do not belong at the casinos. If you cannot afford the losses, don’t ever start.
