I always have a dilemma when it comes to chasing losses in gambling.
Aren't we all?

When I’m in the good mood, I preferred betting using the same amount multiple times until I hit a winning streak to recover my lose but when I’m in bad mood, I usually increase my bet size equals to my total lose so that I can recover quickly.
Yeah, that looks like a recipe for a disaster. I mean that's exactly what I have done when I collected my 2-week signature campain payout on YoLoDice and gambled it on their website hoping to cover my previous week's loss. After maxing my bet amount on dice, it only takes 1 tap of a button to lose it all in instant  Cheesy.

That's what you get for chasing losing bets :v

No God or Kings, only BITCOIN.
What do you typically do when you are on chasing loss situation?
Well, your options are likely the one being done by most of the gamblers but it wasn't the best options at all. I think settling down for awhile and not to chase at all will be the best way for you OP. I am mostly settling down when I'm at streak loss, I always want the safer way and not to double my losses.

I typically don't ever increase my betting amount. I think its like diving into bottomless pool. You can lose everything you got very quickly. In my opinion, its better option to keep playing with actual lower amounts instead (I see it as some sort of punishment to my wallet). I know I decrease chance of winning back but experience I got through would be entertaining. And also, I obviously focus on limiting amount I lose instead. Its different strategy.

Most likely you lose if you increase your bet amount especially when you are pissed off and out of focus on what gameplay you are on. Much better stick with your current bet and try to hit the winning streak, but if that not came then stop there are still opportunity to bet tomorrow since you are having a bad day today. Just increase your bet size when you are lucky since this can possibly give you better profits unlike when you are in losing phase where you might lose more money by doing that.

Dilemma, is the right word I feel the same I always felt the necessity of getting back my losses as fast as possible it's hard to think when you are chasing your losses, I usually double my bet so I can quickly recover but the only mood I felt whenever I am chasing my losses is irritation, I just need to get back my losses, that is why I hate chasing my losses because if I did not get back my losses I usually feel irritated for a couple of days.
I'm sure I'm not the only one with this feeling.

I remember in the past that I would either suddenly do a martingale(just like you are) or I would increase my next bet to 3-4 times the amount of my previous bet hoping I'd win and easily get the loss(as you know it doesn't work the majority of the time), but if I lost the bet I go back to the normal amount of bet that I do, not because I have control but because I don't have a choice because I'd bust my bankroll if I continue doing it. thinking about this now, it is an extremely stupid thing to do, luckily it is a thing in the past and I don't do it anymore.

I don't request loans~
It depends. First few losses I usually just ignore it and continue on. If it was a pretty long streak then damn hell I'd be done and just move on to a different game instead, or maybe stop altogether if I'm that frustrated. If I am to ever chase a loss, which I sometimes do, I usually just stay on the same bet instead of changing anything, just continuously doing it instead and stopping whenever I feel like I've returned my losses (if it ever happens anw). I don't chase winnings at that point, I just want to break even.

Gamble responsibly
What do you typically do when you are on chasing loss situation?
You will most likely lose more if you try to chase losses.

When I gamble and I lost, I just stop to bet if I know that I use big amount of money, but what I can still afford to lose. If I am using small amount, gambling to just have fun, I just continue to gamble and never think of it as losses, if the amount I set for that time is lost, I stop to gamble. Next time, I would have forgotten that I even lost.
