At What Point Do You Really Look At Yourself?

Certainly not when you win!  And when you lose—you blame everything and everybody else or you find absolution in forgiveness.  That cure-all, fix-all, gambler's absolution. 

But, you still did not fix the problem—you only made it worse!

People love to engage in rebuttal and arguing on these message boards as well as in their daily rituals.  All so many do is make the other 'guilty', or label them as a 'loser', or the 'unintelligent one', etc.

These people are the typical 'not my fault' type of people on the internet and in the casino gambling as well as in the real-world of life.  Their vision seems to just about always be, 'I lost because the dealer and the house cheated me', 'I got a driving ticket because the police officer has a quota to make and he picked on me', or 'My house is being foreclosed on because I cannot get a good job, etc., etc., etc.

These people also never seem to realize that their actions cause the results they face, as well.  Each and every thing they usually complain about was in reality, brought upon themselves by that very same person.  "I steal because I never been caught, I only do it occasionally and I am very good at it, also I am not really a thief because I steal less than people openly do when they rob the store with violence and guns", etc.  "I only take a few products here and there and shoplifting is not really a bad crime". 

People draw distinctions at playing baccarat or any other game with, how much they can risk, I.E.—afford to lose.  And they generally base that solely on what funds they have coming in—which will pay their bills that are outstanding and 'must be' paid or past-due.  Then whatever the funds they currently have are allocated for their gambling pursuits. 

The fix is—which seldom happens, is allowing your brain to truly understand gambling, winning, losing, money management and having complete knowledge of losing less money than you win, must be maintained.  Coupled with getting rid of all thought of theories and staying within and subscribing to reality inside the casino as well.  The latter is extremely difficult to be 100% conscious of and remain in total conscious state while gambling.  I did write some detailed articles relating to this very same thing.  They are posted within my Blog and the Baccarat Room here on BetSelection.

But gamblers, justify their actions with everything from, "I know I can win", to "Nobody wins, but I will try anyways".  Justification is their fuel to maintain their far reaching hope to win enough money to recoup all past losses and either replace their current job or earn enough to become classically 'rich', etc., being a professional and full-time baccarat gambler.  Justification also allows them to stay within a no-where fallacy that allows then to continually surrender (yes they are actually surrendering) their money to the casino.  It is much easier to do that, then to face reality and discipline themselves with the proper knowledge, systems and psychology awareness, which will give them a proper advantage to win more money than they lose as well as the guaranteed system to leave with their win money from the casino, if they did win.  But, just about every baccarat player wants to win and win immediately no matter what the aura, the players are experiencing or the atmosphere and presentments are producing.  They walk into the casino and they become a part of a one-way business that can take your money through regular marketing techniques that you will label deceptive and unfair if you lose. 

What is so comical to me, IMO—is all these people continually searching and spending their money for the magical—secretive and well-hidden systems that would allow themselves to be multi-millionaires winners at the game of baccarat or whatever else they play. 

When in reality—the real answers to their prayers is free, takes concentration, insight, focus, losses (yes losses first), and understanding the psychology of what influences them when they are frustrated and confused, but unfortunately—not glamorous or even 'fun' to learn.  Also, realizing that there is a certain amount of 'risk' money required that will allow you to explore the chances that do exist without counting on converting statistical outcomes that gambling wizards preach to be the holy-grail, down into a few shoes of baccarat that prevail over the course of millions of hands into 80, 160 or 320 hands, etc.

So when you see a message board thread with 48 or 70 pages of replies and 10,000 or 21,500 views, you pretty much can count on finding a variation or something very similar to the following.  'Wagering on the 2nd to last winning hand to prevail again after such and such happened', or 'If you place a wager on certain numbers or colors or sides after such and such event happened, you stand a 87% or 93% chance to win because of such and such'.  Like I said, something along those lines.   Pretty much I know 100% I am spot on after all these years of gambling and as well, reading or participating in the message boards.  I never once purchased a gambling system or anything of the likes.  I figured it this way.  Why would this so called self-proclaimed wizard, or doctor or expert professional gambler—sell it to make $99.00.  Even if he sold 100 a week, every week, 400 a month and the benefit of the doubt, 10,000 a year, he would only make $990,000.00. Playing and winning the way he claims, he could make a lot more than that, a lot more(!) in the casino and not having to deal with real dicks like you and me. 

Maybe, just maybe, if you really look at yourself and what you did in the way of gambling, losing, winning, and why things happened the way they did, you would find the real answers that will help you become a lot better and more profitable gambler.  Just maybe.
