Learn About Gambling - How to Be a Winner First

Call them punter tips, gambling tips or golden rules. Stick to them and you will probably be a winner, stay a winner and enjoy gambling for a long time to come with no pain and no regrets.

Gamble money you can afford to lose. If you need the money, don't gamble.

Gamble half of what you are willing to risk. This way, if you don't win, you will give yourself a second chance, another day.

Don't be greedy. If you lose what you have just won, you are.

Gambling can be a form of entertainment if handled with the right attitude. A good approach is to aim to win but to also be prepared to lose - and lose only the amount you planned to risk on that day. In other words, you have to accept the fact that you cannot force a winning outcome and you cannot win every time.

There are many devised gambling systems or methods aimed at overcoming the odds to give you an edge to make you a winner, but don't expect to systematically play your way to riches off the casinos. Apart from card counting at blackjack or applying the Martingale System with no maximum bet limit, all forms of gambling are conditioned by luck, and an astute gambler should make allowance for that.

The casinos have an in-built mathematical advantage on virtually every game and no mathematical betting system can overcome that. On the other hand, the player practically makes all the playing decisions including when to quit. Depending how you make those decisions will determine how successful or otherwise you are.

The casinos are there to let you have a shot at their money and they will have a shot at yours too at the same time. Have a planned betting strategy. Discipline yourself too. Limit your losses and control your winnings. Stick to your planned bankroll limit if you lose and don't be greedy if you win. Walk before you run. Rather than aiming to win a specific amount of money, learn how to be a winner first by a small margin - any small margin. Not easy
