Donate all your money to charity.
If you have no money, you cannot gamble.
Would you rather use your money for good?
Or give it all to SG Pools?

noob321... PLEASE DO NOT BE LIKE ME!!! I throw away 10k in gambling ( I have repented ) but it could easily have escalated into disaster. Some people lose until the path of no return, such as the families leave them, no money to pay bills, no money to eat, etc... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I BEG YOU, DON'T GO DOWN THIS PATH!!!
-
thanks.
so to ensure i don't donate money to SG Pools, i must ensure i have no money?
hopefully i can soon control myself again. last time i managed to control myself

Find another hobby to take up your time lah. Just try to resist everytime you want to go to the website or do something which might lead to you gambling. Also remember, everytime you gamble, the odds are more towards you loosing your money than actually winning.

Be like me, I stopped visiting RWS after I lost $12000 knowing I'll never win that lamborghini.

so long as u can afford den cn lor -
u will never get rich or wealthy thru gambling.
avoid all forms of gambling like 4D or betting football matches.
Believe it or not, I have not even stepped in RWS or MBS so far and I have no intention of visiting them in future.

There is a gambling conselling hotline that you can call for help right..

Hi,
First let me extend my condolences....
I sympathize with you...
In my opinion, there is a way to break your addiction.
I think you gamble because you expect to win, or want to make lots of money.
In order to break your addiction, I would like to inctroduce to you a concept called "House Edge"
House Edge basically means that unless you are the gambling house / gambling boss, there is no way for you to make money.
Suppose you have understood this concept, I think you will see the futility of your gambles, because there is no way mathematically for you to make money. It is just not possible.
The more you gamble, the more money you lose.
In simple terms, suppose you flip a coin.
One side of the coin is 50% chance.
But the gambling boss will give you a worse odds than that.
Lets say you bet 1 dollar, if you win you get back 1.90. If you lose, you lose the 1 dollar.
That is what the gambling house / boss give you.
Let's say you have 10 dollars, so you want to bet 10 times.
Mathematically by the end of the 10 coin flips, you should have 1.9 x (50%x10) = 9.5 dollars.
You just become 50 cents poorer.
If you continue this, you will donate more and more money.
So now you see the futility of gambling.
The only way to win in gambling is if you become a gambling boss. There is no other way.
Not that I recommend it.
Any other gambling system with a "boss" will make you lose. Except poker. But you need to study hard to become a pro poker player. I am not sure whether this is viable. But any other games other than poker is sheer stupidity.

Just wondering... how much do you gamble on one soccer match? and also how many times do you go to SGpools a week?
-
I guess what's important is your attitude. Please turn back before it is too late. I believe the people who love you wont want you to be addicted to gambling. Think for them too yea?
It is good that you do self-reflect, and want to stop your gambling habits, which is a good start. All the best to you! :)

Start by betting lesser bet amount and lesser matches. Then slowly slowly down down... Probably you might quit before you even realise it.
-
sounds perfectly normal to me. The diff is I go in see odds everytime but not always bet. I only bet on confident matches
-
i play ebay
at least if i lose i dun have to pay
-
i play myself.
at least dun have to bother people
