Someone who is addicted to gambling to the extent that he sells assets or property just to gamble is very difficult to recover from, even doctors or psychologists will not be able to cure him.
If he can recover, he will not recover completely but rather forget about gambling and when in his daily life he still sees gambling activities he can easily return to gambling and become an addict again.
Gambling addiction must be treated as any other addiction, the first step is to realize that there is a problem, then talk about the problem and the last step is to work on a solution, but most of gambling addicts are chasing looses on the long road, and that never has a happy end.

Betting back to the topic, I don't think is the same, chasing losses is different, and the fact that someone says "I will be betting until win" is a risky move because bad streaks can be really bad and lead to a huge loss.
It's even more dangerous than some other addictions, but you are right that it needs to be taken care of before things get out of hand because the more one gambles the deeper one dive into it, and as you said, they don't get out at the other end happily. Gambling addiction ruins lives, and we've seen it and usually see it around us all the time.

People need to learn from the existing examples of those people who ruined their lives by only trying to recover their losses which kept causing them more losses until they gambled away everything they had. They realize it sometimes but only when everything is gone, which is a very late realization.

I think is same as chasing loose. Well if you must know gambling is not a game to get rich so quickly because those who ended up taking it as means of getting have lost all their life properties in other t gamble. To me gambling is a game to ease one stress and thinking, along the line you may wish to bet with little amount then fine but taking as an occupation or even chasing a closure makes it look like chasing lose.

Both can be regarded as same since at the cause of chasing loss trying to make a closure, you are still liable to loosing the more, gambling is not the kind of event whereby you predict the exact scenario of what's going to happen, it takes risk to gamble and the most surprising of it all is that you have to accept the fact that you will always make looses when gambling since it's not an investment whereby you must make profits.

Absolutely correct,
It requires technicality to gamble otherwise one might fall prey in the name of making closure. Gambling is for those with a strong heart that doesn't panic over their little lose but can confidently be doing it with or without the mindset of making a closure. Literally you just have the fate that you could succeed in a day by getting a big win.

But if you want to chase your losses whether with reasons or none, you'll keep on chasing it.

It's also quite subjective since once we are in that situation, we will have our reason why we should continue or not.

OP needs some clarification not knowing that the answer relies on us.

Maybe OP needs to test it on actual. Go on gambling and if lose, decide if will chase the loss or stop gambling, or just take a break.
The majority will be in chasing mode but yeah, it's good to try it on his own to know if that's going to be a chase for him or he can have his closure without having such.
But needless to say, when we just keep on losing and there's no need to gamble anymore within that period of time and you just keep on dwelling losses, you just need to take some rest.
Forget all of those losses you've incurred within that day and just leave it there. You can't recover that quickly in a day or else you'll lose more than what you've got put as your allocated budget within that day.

Besides that, gambling is an activity that carries a very large risk of addiction, risk of loss, even the risk of being mentally and physically disturbed because of a high emotional feeling when you experience a big defeat.
And why is a gambler not advised to expect too much from gambling wins and profits because in gambling a gambler will only get 2 things that are certain, namely defeat and loss.
There are several important aspects that must be prioritized and become an obligation for every individual gambler so as not to lose even more.
- Self-control.
- Financial management.
- Avoiding greed.
- Have the mainside of gambling just for fun.
If these 4 aspects can be carried out, gamblers can play calmly and comfortably without fear of big losses.

Gambling is truly the capricious siren that lures us into her uncertain embrace. She tempts us with potential riches, yet brings with her the perils of addiction, loss, and even psychological and physical upheaval. What compels us to return to her time and again? Is it the allure of the unknown, the surge of adrenaline, or simply human folly?

As a gambler, don't count on stacking mad cash from your wins, 'cause odds are, you'll lose more than you gain. But don't let that kill your vibe. See gambling as a wild ride into the great unknown.

Just remember to keep it cool, watch your wallet, don't let greed take over, and have a blast. That's how you make gambling a dope experience. And if you catch an L, don't sweat it. It's all part of the journey. So, grab your chips, your lucky rabbit's foot, and let's dive into this rollercoaster of emotions and wild outcomes!

Gambling is a wild rollercoaster of emotions. One moment you're winning, the next you're losing. It's a complicated love-hate situation—you're aware it's not good, but it's too tempting to resist. It's a fun game of luck, but it can quickly become too much. Managing your money wisely is essential to dodge big losses, but emotions can sometimes take over. That's why it's important to never risk more than you can handle losing. As the adage goes, "when the fun stops, stop." Gambling can be an enjoyable pastime, but always be sure to gamble with care.

There is no such thing as finding closure in gambling unless the person decided to quit gambling.  A gambler does not need to find closure, he must provide and decide for it himself.  Because if he looks for it on his gameplay, he will never find it anyway, he will keep on gambling until he is broke.
Once you are addicted it is hard to find closure unless you get help which is a sketchy situation if no one is there to guide you and gambling online can create that unfortunate situation. Unless you set a monthly budget, you would probably end up loosing everything.

Just telling that it is a closure for sure he got addicted to gambling it is just his reasons so that bo one can stop him. Mindset of addicted to gambling is very difficult they already have all the reason to play and not to stop you . No   matter if you have a monthly budget or not addiction is really addiction and it needed to be cured and seek help for professional as it might go worse

Maybe he just to excuse himself from the fact that he's already addicted. People find ways to keep on going and create reasons that will justify what they've been doing in their favor in an understandable way like asking for others' approval that they're just doing it correctly and nothing wrong with it. If you want closure when you gamble, you will have not to make any agreement or such because you just want to stop. But if you want to chase your losses whether with reasons or none, you'll keep on chasing it.

I really need a clarification on this. Is chasing looses in gambling same as looking for closure because i recently read an article on reddit where the poster said that he will gamble untill he wins just to look for closure. I have been thinking about this for sometime now because closure has the same characteristics with chasing looses which is even when the gambler is loosing he will still be gambling just to recover all his looses.

Chasing losses or finding closure is really just the same on the sense on which you are really that trying out to break even or really tending to quit or stop when you are in green which means that you've been molded up
by that greed but not all the time because when it comes to closure then we do really know that it isnt really that not all people will really be on the situation or condition of being desperate.They are really just
trying to stop on the time that they do see it to be that good and if they do lose even further then they could easily quit up but of course it would really be according or depending into your self control.
We know that each person does have different level control and emotion when it comes to various things which we cant really be able to point out.

The way that guys stated why he keeps on gambling has no different from chasing losses.  First the reason why he is finding closure is because he aim to win to recover the amount he spent on gambling.  For sure he won't quit until he bleed enough or had recover his losses.  But after recovering his losses, there is a clear indication that he will continue to gamble after a short time break.  Thus the cycle repeats and he will continue to gamble.  If he wanted to stop gambling, there is no need for a condition.  He can just quit and forget all the losses he suffered playing on the gambling platform.

and let's say, you got your winnings, do you think you will stop gambling? i don't think so. so you won't find your closure if you will not totally get out of gambling after such winnings. there's no closure as long as you are into gambling.
i don't know what others are thinking about the concept of finding closure in gambling.

The guy is just looking for excuses to continue his gambling.  It is his statement to justify his action while others are seeing it as silly.  Anyway, it is the guy's money so we don't have any say on his matter.  Though we all know that chasing losses often ends up badly, let him experience it first hand, after all there are already lots of people reminding and telling him that he is doing it wrong.  Grin


It could be an excuse, using to justify his continuance on gambling in spite of the losses he has had to face. But I would also like to point out that there are several ways someone would find to quit gambling for good or for long periods of times: family, religion, time...

The important thing about all this conversation is that it is better to "find closure" by ourselves than letting the circumstances to start to decide what we do with our lives and what to do with our time/money. So it is better to know when to stop than letting our empty pockets to stop us when it is already too late.

Definitely not; chasing losses will give you the drive to continue playing in order to got back with what have you lose while closure is simply enduring losses and accepting that it is not your 'day'. On my end, it would be much better to set limits and seek for closure whenever you are losing than to seek for revenge. Being to eager to got back will put you at risk for bigger loss. On the other hand, being disciplined won't be achieved in an instant. It is normal to be eager for a comeback given how an individual give importance for losses. It would be easy to say taking a pause would be advantageous but as long as the drive is still there, it is where struggle would start.
Chasing losses will never give you a closure, but it will only make you lose more until you decide that gambling won’t give you some fortune and won’t definitely give you chances to chase your previous losses once more. So if you mean you’ll keep on chasing losses because you want to find closure from gambling, then it’s definitely not happening for all you know. If you want to put closure from gambling, then just stop gambling once and for all, and never try to gamble because you think you are lucky or you want to chase more of your losses.

and let's say, you got your winnings, do you think you will stop gambling? i don't think so. so you won't find your closure if you will not totally get out of gambling after such winnings. there's no closure as long as you are into gambling.
i don't know what others are thinking about the concept of finding closure in gambling.

On the contrary, if we win then we might go and continue gambling because we feel lucky and maybe we are greedy and looking for more money. So I only thinking that it won't get closure to any gamblers and it might push them more to gambling.

Maybe this is just an excuse for us to continue playing? I don't know. But one thing's for sure, if we wanted to stop gambling and have it close, then we will jus simply stop. But that is the hardest thing to do that's why we heard a lot of excuses from gambling to go and continue to play, this this so called reasoning of "closure".

The sad part is how gamblers have already dug a hole, and when they're at the bottom of it, they're in some ways wishing that they could just return to the starting point and get their money back - not even making a profit at that point. Unfortunately chasing losses like this is just going to leave you in a much worse position mentally, because you are throwing away good money after bad. The fact that you've lost so much money should be a clear indicator that the odds are not in your favor. There is often zero skill involved with almost every casino game that they offer, you are just handing money over in return for clicking a few buttons with some options that give you the illusion of control, or quirky side games to momentarily distract you.

I say these two words are the same as never stop gambling.
chasing defeat and seeking closure are the same thing. in the end the gambler will lose continuously and get big wins that are not worth the loss after that the gambler will continue to bet increasing the bet amount to get back all his losses but that is something in vain and lose even more.

it will go on and on never finding closure and always chasing defeat.
Winning in gambling is hard so chasing losses is hard too. It can be a never-ending journey for those who have a big losses but what if they get lucky one day and hit the jackpot which makes them recover all of their losses? I think some of them are committed to stop their gambling habit and use the money on something that can provide them with consistent income like opening up a business.

Getting big wins aside from losses are better than not getting anything at all. At least it might help us to progress faster. We should only control our selves and don't over bet next time because once we lose, it will only make our journey difficult to be finished.
But one of the aftermath of chasing losses is that, it leads to addiction, and trust me, even if your reason for chasing loses is to win the jackpot, then stop gambling and go into business or something, there is also the high chance that you might never win that jackpot, or before you eventually win the jackpot, the amount of money in the jackpot wont be up to the total amount of money you've spent on gambling altogether.

The one way I know we can have rest or peace of mind in gambling is never to depend on gambling for anything, if your reason for gambling is to win big money and start up a business, why not start that business with the little you have while you keep gambling by the side?
Waiting for the big win before you start a business is a prove of un-seriousness, and there is also a chance that that big win might never come when you want it, and if it doesn't, it simply means you never would go into that business.
