The only way to view gambling is to say to yourself I am going spend this amount of money having some fun and when it is gone I am gong to stop and do it. Never chase your losses, lying to yourself that just another few hands and you’ll get it all back. It can happen but the odds are greatly stacked against it. You don’t want to end up like the famous courtesan La Belle Ortero who gambled away her $25 million fortune and died in poverty.
The proliferation of online gambling sites has been tremendous; it has never been so easy to lose your money. Once you had to visit a casino, betting office or go to a track but now you only have to click your mouse to have a game of poker or roulette or whatever. Remember when you bet online nobody can see how much you lose.
There is nothing like the feeling of when you win a big pot at poker, your number comes up in roulette or your horse romps home with long odds but remember the saying of sporting endeavours which is ten times more important when it comes to gambling, ‘it’s not the winning that’s important, it’s the taking part’.

Here are the top 5 tips for you to improve your game.
1. When you first start out playing online blackjack, make sure to use practice mode with autoplay to assist you until you get the hang of the game. This way you will avoid losing your money foolishly.
2. Play with the money you intented in the first place and don´t add more money to your bankroll just cuz you feel that the next hand is the “lucky” one.
3. Know when to hit and stand: Hit hard until you reach 17 or more, stand on 17 or more and hit soft 18 if the dealer has 10.
