Exactly, when you manage to stop you are helping yourself not to add more with your loses and to cut that tie with aggressive desire to chase your money, I see your point and that's true, most of us here if not all do expereienced trying to recover after losing huge amount of money, thingking that by adding more you'll have that opportunit to win it back and in hope that after recovering you'll be able to quit and stop, but that's not what will going to happen after, either you got that chance to recover but failed to stop or you lose everything away again.

Every gambler knows that there are two outcomes of gambling, you either win or lose, but most of them lack the self-control required to have some control over their emotions so that they don't act weird or make compulsive decisions when they lose and take it as they take the wins and move on. If all gamblers start thinking that way and act like nothing has happened after losing some money, there won't be a lot of stories of people losing significant sums in gambling.

People lose control over their emotions pretty easily, so they start chasing their losses and then lose even more than what they might have lost if they hadn't tried recovering the previous losses. Still, again, it's all about self-control. They don't have it, which becomes the reason for them to bear more losses.

I really believe that gamblers experience something like this, chasing losses is a natural thing because no one likes losing and hoping for their money back. However, if luck doesn't come and we continue to force ourselves to chase losses, it will be dangerous because more money will be lost.

When we continue to chasing losses and don't think logically, it is very likely that we have become a gambling addict. In my opinion, if we are chasing losses then just do it once or twice, if luck still doesn't come then stop for a moment and play again in the next few days so that our minds are fresh again.

i believe at one point in our gambling life, we chase our losses. but if you are conscious enough about this emotion and you still know how to change or your limits, then, addiction may still be far from happening.
i've been in that scenario many times over as well, but i also stopped when i think there's no hope of recovering anymore. there may be some losses but at least when you stop, it means you are cutting further losses. but if you won't stop, then it means, you are subjecting yourself to possible addiction.

You are not a regular nor an addicted gambler but your zero tolerance in the few times you places your stakes in the gambling table is unimaginable. I am worried on how you keep to advancing your stakes because your earning is increasing.
I wondered why you didn't employ consciousness or fear to keep loosing because it is assumed it isn't part of you.
However, it is a good one that you could pull yourself out before you are returned a zero level.

Realistically, gambling is all about how you feel when you win or lose. Of course, winning at gambling is very satisfying, don't you think? These victories are more important than the losses. The losses, on the other hand, are actually way more. There's more to it than just losing more often than winning. It's how our mind handle wins and losses

These companies know this. They know a lot about things. That one win out of dozens of tries is just to keep you playing. Smart planning led to this plan. They're not playing the game on the table; they're playing a psychological game. They're winning too. Statement from you? Very reasonable, that. Unfortunately, this is the harsh truth about gambling. Many people fall for the lure of the odd win. The players keep coming back for more, hoping and thinking of that big win. But what really happens? It's a loop where losing more often than winning happens

When we have the desire to recover losses, it means we have started to become addicted to gambling, but these are still early signs of gambling addiction, and we have to control ourselves so that it doesn't get bigger. By trying to catch up on these losses, we will likely prepare even larger funds than before, and we may also use the winnings that we have earned. People think that with bigger capital, they can gamble longer, and that's true, but it guarantees they can get big wins too. They must realize that and not force themselves to keep chasing other wins. Many people have tried it, but many of them failed, so we don't need to experience the same thing as them.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm sure it's a good idea to take a look at some of the things that you can do to make sure that you're getting the most out of the game.

Basically, in my opinion, all gamblers, whether they have a goal just for fun or who really come with a desire to earn, will always look forward to winning if they are lucky, it's just that maybe from the two characters above they have differences in seriousness, for those who just want to fill time to get entertainment, maybe they won't think too much if they end up losing, and it's different for someone who really wants to make money, if they end up losing, they usually won't accept it and instead put more money there and gamble again with the aim of catching up with the defeat at the previous time. The point is that in my opinion it is better to be more realistic in looking at this gambling and focus on the risks not the winnings.

The real fact is that ten defeats will be able to be treated with just the sensation of one victory, that's the fact that actually happens, so if you look at the number of y = defeats and the number of wins they get in a certain period of time then I am sure that the number of defeats will be much greater than the victory, but strangely they are still fine and keep gambling as usual without considering anything with the facts that have happened that the number of defeats is much greater. Yes, indirectly with the enthusiasm and hope that you always carry in gambling, it will make you not realize that the actual number of defeats is much more than you imagine.

Yes that's right, that indeed the victory is nothing but a temptation for you to continue to engage in gambling, the casino will not let you go because your defeat is a victory for them, therefore the casino gives you an occasional victory from dozens of tries, nothing but the goal is to keep you involved in gambling and benefit them. Isn't my statement very logical?

When I said there would not be any regrets if you’re fully aware of the risks involved, I meant you wouldn’t feel bad when the outcome of the games you placed a bet on didn’t go as you would have liked. You are fully aware the outcome could go either ways and are ready for any possible outcome.
Obviously, we all would desire a positive result in our bets so we could win but when you’re aware of the seemingly high possibility of losing, there wouldn’t be any regrets when the outcome doesn’t work in your favor.

Some people that gamble are covered by the little winning they do get and when those winning come they do forget the fact that they have lost a lot in gambling, I was also a victim of such self deceit because the loses do come frequent where as the winning once a while so when the feeling of experiencing these win do it covers all the losses. Over time I come learn that these winning are actually a trap set for the gambler to forget their losses.

Due to the lack of knowledge and understanding of the public, it is easy for influencers to promote online and offline casinos, and only a few people have luck there.

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with creating an online casino network, as long as people make good use of it, namely not expecting too much there by spending large amounts of money, only a little and only when necessary.
So the public will not lose much, perhaps they will enjoy the gambling they see there, while the companies also make money there by installing a network of online and offline casinos.

While we know that chasing our losses does not work, one of its most dangerous aspects is that it gives the appearance that it does, one of the most popular betting progressions is martingale, in which after a loss a gambler doubles their bet hoping to recover all the money lost and obtain a small profit, but as you can see this is just another way in which gamblers chase their losses, and martingale gives the impression that it can serve this purpose as you will win your money back the majority of the times you decide to use this strategy, however the day it fails you that is when huge losses will come your way.

If you do really come into a point on which you would really be chasing up some losses then this is the time that you are already that making yourself that having out of control or simply that becomes that impulsive on which we know that it isnt really that recommended on doing so because it will really be just that making you desperate on your gambling activity on which we know that it isnt really that something that good on having such behavior yet spending money would really be that more severe and its not something that good. When gambling then you should already anticipate
that losing is really that inevitable and you should really accept such condition because people would usually be that impulsive on the time that they arent that getting used to on losing
and instead of accepting they would rather tending or trying out to chase it up instead.

What you say is very true, personally I have always thought that when a person enters a casino the first thing they should do is generate or see how much they are willing to lose in a gaming session, if they know how to mature this they will realize that The main thing here is to mature the knowledge that it is a casino, because a casino was invented and you can enjoy having fun and then if there is opportunity then you win, 'but the main thing is to play and enjoy, some do not see it that way because as they will lose so much Well, that enjoyment goes away and turns into pressure and stress, that is why the concept of having money willing to lose adapts to any situation, so in this order of ideas we can act and say that things are like this, to avoid evils understood and especially the deceptions that are so common in every player, this is what is sought to avoid and get players to return to play at the casino.

The other thing that is taken into consideration is very true, I know cases of friends who enter a casino and the first thing they do is try to recover what they have already lost, and this is something that cannot and should not be, because basically things In a casino it is about first being a company, having a business where they have to base themselves on understanding that they must win, and at home (duelloños) they must win, they must not lose, this is what they have to understand, the rest is not No type of business would be set up that would have losses, everyone should know this, because then they will know that they are fighting against the house advantage and against the complexity of the game, which is such a common game and has always existed, and The casinos that manage to get rid of the house advantage simply go into total collapse and go bankrupt, so that is what must be understood, and what you say about how they take advantage of what they win to win more, well, it is very true and it has happened to me, that in fact I have had to take more money to see if I can recover something.

Yes, indeed chasing losses with the desire to recover losses has a very bad impact and one of them is addiction which will hit our minds with uncontrollable emotions of high levels of greed so that they will lose their common sense and have difficulty gambling healthily and things like this often happen Even you and I have experienced this, but we as gamblers who have had experience for a long time can be a little more in control, it's just that after failing to control ourselves, we bet more and lose, usually regret will haunt us for a few days, but that's a normal condition the most important thing is to always make mistakes the key to improve yourself so that you ignore chasing losses in gambling.

It's hard to give advice to someone whose mindset is so disturbed by addiction, and it seems like you are one of those people who have proven it yourself that indeed when you feel that the final result is always disappointing even though you have done everything like chasing defeat, when you feel it then it's good because indirectly you can confirm that indeed some of the advice from others who say that it is not profitable at all then you will just believe the statement. If we think logically with the actual concept that exists in gambling then clearly chasing defeat makes absolutely no sense and is not recommended, none other than because there is absolutely no guarantee for anyone to be able to recover the defeat in the previous time and also because on the other hand for the problem of the final result always depends on how lucky you are at that time.

You will realize when you feel the real impact that the method is really not effective to do and will only make things worse. So what's better is that there's no other way but to be a responsible gambler by accepting whatever the final result (loss) is, it's better in every way, you won't be depressed because you only put a small amount and without putting any expectations there.

Recovering losses in gambling is never recommended because it will only increase the number of losses even greater. We will also face other problems where we can become addicted to gambling and will not realize that we have experienced it when we gamble more often. Apart from that, the money you spend on gambling can increase, so that is what makes many people experience chaos in their finances because they do not control themselves or limit themselves in using money for gambling. And yes, if we have experienced loss, we should stop gambling and rest because at that time, our emotions will increase, and all that is on our minds is the desire to recover from that loss. But by resting, we can lower our emotions so that we can think clearly and not think about trying to recover from loss.

You are right Mate. I have done this a lot and not once has it favoured me, I end up loosing more amidst great pain and regrets. I have managed to work out a way of ensuring I don't chase losses with the saying "he who fights and run away, lives to fight another day". If I loose some bets, I accept my losses and prepare to come back stronger and better. I check the mistakes I made if any and try to improve on my selection. It is not a must to win a particular bet, and if that bet did not work, sit back and come back when your luck might have improved. Let's not forget that luck still play important role in gambling.

Yes for normal people the thought is very absurd and out of what should be done, they are a bit crazy because they carry a mindset and beliefs that are clearly contrary to the facts that the actual concept of gambling. Basically it is very difficult for them to be able to get a win or even just to recover losses. That is why we must be responsible gamblers by always putting money that is ready to be lost so that there is no need or thought to chase losses.

If they put too much obsession and ambition on their gambling then obviously it will only worsen the situation, instead of getting a recovery from the money that has been lost but the opposite happens, the amount of loss is even greater. On the other hand, you should not think that chasing defeat is a struggle to achieve results that match your expectations, because in gambling there is absolutely no guarantee and still for the final result always depends on how lucky you are at that time.

It is very unreasonable if they put their hopes on something that always runs randomly for the results, self-control will always be at war with the temptations and opportunities that you are there, in my opinion that is what makes them end up in a dilemma and confused to choose which one, and because the temptation in gambling is very strong it makes them finally forget self-control and continue to pursue victory because of the temptation that seems tempting when it is nothing more than a trap.
