"I've mentioned so many strategies before, but today, let's just chat! Control – have we all mastered it? Well, don't get too excited just yet; maybe you're only good at controlling others! How about controlling yourself? I believe many gamblers find themselves in a complete mess, right?
Why do we need control? I don't think we need to discuss it much because we all understand. I just want to say, is the word ""control"" deeply imprinted in your mind when you're in the midst of gambling? Is it constantly flashing in your brain, guiding your actions? For example, when you win, you forget everything and get ecstatic, and when you lose, you become despondent and bet recklessly. This is the common behavior of many gamblers.
Sometimes, you might tighten your betting too much. The main manifestation is that you keep wondering why you bet so little after a long winning streak, why you haven't seen a hint of victory. However, during a losing streak, you bet aggressively until the tide turns, but by then, you've run out of chips, and you can only sigh at the cards. The mistake of betting aggressively during a losing streak and reducing bets during a winning streak is the same – it's a problem with control.
More advanced control is a conscious action, not something forced. It's a self-aware action developed in your daily life and will unconsciously permeate your actions. There is no control master who constantly reminds themselves of control at the gambling table, is there? When you learn to control your words, actions, emotions, and desires in your daily life, over time, you will have a sense of conscious action. At this point, no matter what you do, you have a sense of control, not just at the gambling table. Only when you have developed this kind of self-awareness through years of practice can you resist wild impulses and expanding desires. Only then can you weigh whether your actions are appropriate in every situation. This is a long-term accumulation, not something you can have with a sudden burst of effort. It requires constant refinement and perseverance.
Control is not just about ""endurance."" Simply enduring is, at best, someone who knows how to compromise. Control also includes moderate advancement. Advancing is to expand your gains, speed up the progress of the game, and improve the efficiency of chip conversion. Therefore, proper control includes both retreat and advancement. So, when we say control is done correctly, it means that when you should advance, you advance, and when you should retreat, you retreat. If you don't advance when you should, you can't really say you have good control. Control involves both advance and retreat. When you can manage both effectively, you truly possess a certain level of mastery." |
