The biggest “tip and strategy” for gambling, regardless if you are playing blackjack or domino qiu qiu, is to remember that it is meant as a form of entertainment, not as a way to get rich quick or as a way to make money.
Never use the money that you need to pay rent, utilities, food or other basic needs. The money you spend gambling has to be money that was set aside in the budget as entertainment money. If you are living “paycheck to paycheck” and there isn’t much entertainment money (if any) then you should not be gambling for money. Money meant for your basic needs should never be gambled with.
Leave credit cards/debit cards at home when you go out gambling; and, NEVER borrow money from friends or relatives so you can continue gambling. Once your allotted gambling fund is depleted, it’s time to go home, or move on to a form of gambling that doesn’t take money.
Only bring the money you initially set aside to gamble with; have a clear “exit plan” if the money runs out before you planned it to.
Balance gambling with other activities; don’t make the sole purpose of the evening, or vacation all about gambling.
You now know and understand the rules for gambling responsibly; now, we can look into some tips to make your gambling budget go further.
