I have been gaming on the net or at land based gambling halls for a great many years. I have found out, the fixation can take a hold of you and you won’t even see it up till you are beaten. Especially if you are on a run. I have gone through many hundreds of dollars in just a tiny period of time and even still on occasion, I sometimes go a bit too far. It seems you are just having a blast until you choose to contemplate your squanderings and the anguish settles in, and of course you keep telling yourself "I might be able to gain it back" ad nauseam. It never works. Then you get sick to your stomach and the harder you try the quicker you spend.
When you find that you are up, STAY in the Black! When you start to relinquish, do not inform yourself, "well just maybe 1 more" and again and again, believe me, this scheme barely ever operates. Say you are playing on slot machines, have a pot separate prior to beginning your action. DO NOT go over this cap, no matter how tempting. If you happen to succeed, put that in a different cup. Do not risk your profits regardless of what happens. After you have played through your beginning predetermined limit, stop. Back off, regardless if it’s on the net or at a brick and mortar casino, don’t stick at the tables or machines. Always remember, there will be other days, other times. Clearly, this method usually will function for any game that you wager on, be it bingo, poker, video poker, keno, twenty-one or any other game.
Remember, wagering is supposed to be exciting not demanding, nauseating work! If you aren’t having fun yourself, you don’t belong at the casinos. If you cannot afford the hit, don’t ever start.
