Of course, I have become more disciplined. And this applies to both poker and other gambling games. I have long since grown up from the age when I could leave my entire salary in the gambling hall. And I will not say that I miss those "fun" times 🙂belizebum said:
I don't miss the reckless tilt of the first years . Because I don't miss the constant redeposits , everyday , one after the other . No , for sure I don't miss it . Now I have discipline , because I like| it that way , moreover they font pay enough , the casino games and poker . So no reason yo take it more seriously , start playing more dollars . I am very conservative these days .
I understand that many people enjoy gambling, but I consider it a social evil and a tax on stupidity. I'm not saying everyone who gambles is stupid. If you can control it, great, but many can't.The people who usually go there are at the bottom of the economic ladder.
I have become a player who earns income. There was a time when I was recklessly gambling, but that was when I was spending money on the game. It was fun, but at the same time, it was not cheap. Now everything has changed. Now the game brings me income, so I play disciplined, do not take unnecessary risks, think through every decision, keep statistics, and adhere to bankroll management.belizebum said:
At first, I was a scared little chicken <3 petrified of my family history with gambling and whether or not I would fall into that as well <3
Then covid hit, and I found this beauty of a site and, well, lets just say I am a changed woman <3 At first, I would shake and stutter with a hand, and now, I am so ready to get my butt to a casino 😛 and eat chippies 😛 hehe <3

At the beginning, it was gambling with no brakes: too much excitement, fast decisions, and confidence bigger than the bankroll itself 😅
I played as if luck were a close personal friend… and later found out it was a very moody one.
Over time, things changed. I became more disciplined, I count the losses before the wins, and I leave the table before it leaves me. The fun didn’t disappear — it just became calmer and smarter.
Do I miss that old recklessness? Sometimes, yes… but most of the time, it’s the recklessness that misses me — especially when I remember how expensive it used to be.

When I think back to when I started playing, I realize now that back then I was more like a narcissistic and unbalanced teenager. Now, I'm not like that anymore. Now, I think 10 times before spending even a single dollar.belizebum said:
