Chasing loses in gambling is the worst form of it's addiction, because the gambler will be desperate to get back to winnings to recover loses, if that doesn't happen depression can set in big time. This is when the person becomes a degenerate gambler, which is the worst form of addiction. Anybody that is engaging in gambling must try to avoid this harmful habit, because at the end if the day, the gambler will likely go broke, even to the extent of borrowing money in the hope to win back loses. The most dangerous thing in this types of scenario is that it can affect the gambler's mental health.
I'm happy in the case of the OP because he was able to read the handwriting on the wall to understand that continue playing can not guarantee winnings to recover his loses. Gambling is based on luck, anything can happen, either to win or loss . So it's best to have a budget before gambling, so if that budget gets exhausted in loses, best to call it a day and live to gamble another day.

Chasing losses in Gambler is very dangerous if you are not in economical sense recover losses. The addiction of recover losses you don't noticed how much capital you have risk to recover the loss. That remain reason chasing losses is dangerous because if you set to recover loss and say that how much capital I have to put in it to recover my loss that mean you are foolish person. Because over gambling makes addiction because of addiction you gamble over and over gambling causes losses. That's why if you face loss stop gambling for the time start after taking some rest it will be more effective and helpful for recover your losses.
- That's the only advantage with well-known influencers who have a large number of followers, because even if only 1/4 of his followers join him in his promoted gambling casino, apart from this paid-for advertisement, it has an additional bonus commission. get from his followers to sign up and also enter money in the casino platform that he campaigned on.
So often, the unfortunate ones in the end are those of us who are unpopular on social media platforms. So, you are right that the only solution is to be careful so that we are not fooled by other lying social media influencers.
And if people have already followed the promotion, it would be better to immediately abandon it or stop it, because there is no point in wasting time and money that we are not sure we will get.
They make advertisements on the internet only for the needs of their casino network so that more people know and play in their casinos or in online gambling. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with this, but what is wrong is that there are people who play in casinos who do not have self-control so that they become addicted. If they can control themselves while playing, maybe it will minimize the harmful effects of gambling.

Such a series of losses must be very bad for you. Many people cannot accept consistent losses like you have given. But you should be glad that you didn't bet too much money because of which you lost a small amount of money on each bet. As you mentioned at the beginning you are not a professional gambler or a gambler with a lot of experience, maybe you have such a series of losses from the early part of gambling. I think you should learn from the series of losses you've had towards the end. You should get an idea of what caused the loss and where you should have adopted a different strategy from the previous loss. If you can find and work on the causes of the previous losses, then you will not face such a series of losses later on.
Obviously, what we see as advert by influencers are not what they are in the reality. They are sometimes the opposite of what we think they are after going through the process and having the experience. Most times these influencers are just after their pockets and nothing much even the adverts they do on social media through their handles are fake sometimes. All these are just to get t their fan base and followership while marketing their affiliate products. And their fans who got no idea of the gimmicks just rush in and begin to d OP things and get carried away without verification and confirmation. Some of them ends up losing funds while some at the end become addicted to it whatever the case maybe. Addiction is not intentional but conventional.
Yes, because influencers are paid by a company so they will happily work to earn money even if their work is untrue or fraudulent. And this is what happens if the influencer is someone who is already known to the public, so that the public will be interested in the advertisement, so that we as ordinary people of course must always be careful, so as not to get trapped. in advertising it is not necessarily certain or true. By remaining alert and understanding every intent and advertisement, even though it is a bit difficult to try, I think it is the right step.

Yes, it's almost the same as what OP did, but as we can see that OP managed to recover his losses and it must be remembered that OP's success was only a small part, not everyone can do that and be lucky to recover their losses, it is very risky to do what he did. OP did, he talked about his success but it would be a different story if he talked about his failure, it would be an important lesson for the OP too and his fellow gamblers on this forum.
I'm sure everyone must have heard OP's story thinking that it could be done successfully but it's clearly very wrong and there's a high risk of increasing the bet amount just to return the loss, that's clearly not justified, I also always remind myself when playing has reached the budget and lost, I I will leave the game without having to catch up on the losses I experienced because I gamble not prioritizing money but pleasure.
Yes, he was lucky to recover his losses but if he looks at his gambling records, he may still have losses but he should not try to recover his other losses because it will not be easy. The risk will certainly be greater than they imagine so the possibility of experiencing loss will be there. If they can really avoid it, they will not experience a bigger loss. Very few people can actually recover their losses because this is gambling, where we will find it difficult to recover the losses.I'm sure everyone must have heard OP's story thinking that it could be done successfully but it's clearly very wrong and there's a high risk of increasing the bet amount just to return the loss, that's clearly not justified, I also always remind myself when playing has reached the budget and lost, I I will leave the game without having to catch up on the losses I experienced because I gamble not prioritizing money but pleasure.
If they have experienced a loss and want to recover their losses, they must remember that there is a possibility of experiencing another loss and never increase the value of the bet because it can cause large losses in one round. They should keep using the same betting value for some time and immediately stop gambling if the result continues to be the same loss.
Lolz, chasing lose has not been favourable to gamblers and finally result is always a bitter. You would have stopped at the first loss but you believed that you would win you first loss and you loss out till 3x. It is a lesson to you now. And one thing I see from the Op narrative is greedy. Why I am saying in the sense that when he as loss the first game, he would have reduced the amount but instead he increase it to recover the first loss and the same thing repeat itself again in the third game again. And that becomes an addictional mindset.
To decline from gambling is from the mind and if you can control it then it is settled. Lolz. I stopped gambling last month when I lost $50 to casino here and I will continue when the mind is settled and prepare to play again.

Trust me no one chases after lost that wouldn't grabs the air, we are gambling not because we cannot afford to loose the money used in gambling, we are doing so because we see ourselves in that position capable enough to afford the use of money in gambling which we can afford to loose, most of the people who do this were probably regretting for their loss because of the conditions behind the money used for the bet or some other reasons beyond public explanation and they wanted to recover.
There is no regret if you are fully aware of the risks involved and money used whenever gambling is money that has been set aside for that particular purpose.
You can't be so sure about that. I've seen several gamblers who just had an automatic regrets when they have this hesitation on how they are going to place their bets. Of course when the outcome didn't come their way or the winning bet was their original plan or it was the 2nd option, then regrets are inevitable in such case.
I personally experienced it a lot of times before. Though I am totally aware of the risks involve, but sometimes we just hope to win some not the other way around.
Regretna is the facility that we will get from gambling, whether it's because of the wrong intention at the beginning of gambling, or choosing the wrong decision and or other things that make you regret, sometimes when you use small bet then you get a victory, for myself me Feeling sorry why not using a bigger bet to get a bigger win before, including doubt before making a decision.
But indeed my biggest regret during gambling is because of the chase of defeat, as if I wanted to get back the money I had previously spent, and made me impulsive in gambling.

I would say anyone who has regrets after gambling and losing, then gamble some more in hopes of winning some money to take back home with after draining the money available with you at the moment, are people who use money saved up and budgeted for something else.

Many can't stop after experiencing another loss as a result of continuing to gamble, but that doesn't stop them from immediately quitting gambling. They still choose to deposit more money and some gamblers will increase the bet amount because, according to them, it will be a big win if they win. But again, they lost and the money ran out.

Not everyone can duplicate what the outcome did OP experienced, and it's safe to say that most of the time, the outcome turned to the other side, instead of recovering and enjoying with small winnings, the gambler who chased their loses add the money they replenished to another amount that they've loss.
It's going to be that way since when you are trying to recover, there's already aggression that you feel inside you. Which can lead you to bet big to recover quickly, but most likely you will lose again.
these emotions would come out on which it would really be that normally be giving out that kind of idea that it isnt really that too far off on trying out to break even those losses on which means
that chances that you would really be making out such deposit would really be likely and it would continue until you have lose on everything on that particular session. People wont stop
not unless if they do have that nothing left into their pocket or account. As long they do know or have in mind that they could still be able to play since they do still have
balance then they would really be doing it no matter what.
The reason why a person loses more while chasing losses isn't that they stay in the same game, but the main reason for it is that the gambler starts increasing the bet amount almost by 2x after every loss, we call it the martingale strategy, and a healthy loss streak with this strategy will take only a short while to empty the bankroll of the gambler because the bet amount is doubling after each loss and that when continued for more than 10 bets will reach a pretty high amount.
So, the danger of chasing losses is in doubling the base bet which is a recipe for disaster a lot of gamblers don't understand because they might have done it successfully once or maybe twice but they haven't yet experienced a deadly loss streak that sometimes can even go above 20 consecutive losing bets which is disastrous.
The gambler use the full money many times in the same game after the big loss in the gambling.If the gambler had loss the game in the gambling site,he should try the other game on their next bet.The gambler should do the other game and find the best game which is used by them to make the biggest win using the gambling sites.Some gambler still try the same game many time till he chase the full money loss in that game.But we can’t manage to regain the loss from the same game.Only few people achieve the loss management using the same game,which he had loss the more dollars in the recent past of the gambling site.

And what causes gamblers chasing loses most times is when a gambler gambles more than they can always afford to lose, and in such case, the only option such gambler has is to double his betting stake, while hoping to win and recover all lost funds plus an extra, just as O.P did, by winning an extra, which is a rare occasion, as most times, if you are not lucky enough, you could also end up losing your entire funds, and gamble only responsibly at all times no matter whatever the scenario be, while having how much is he/she willing to risk at all times.
Gambler lose more in chasing loses because they tend to stay on the same game. Like in slots, the longer we stay on this game, the more frequent dead spin occurs. So if chasing losses is triggered, the player tend to ignore that kind of observation and keep on gambling until they ran out of money.The danger of chasing losses is the trigger factor where a gambler don't mind anything but to get a huge win and eventually recover his losses which often times don't happen.

Chasing of losses has been a major problem I think gamblers are facing because most of the addiction came as a result of chasing of losses to recover all they have lost, but in the process of doing so, they keep losing more and more as they continue to chase their losses. Watching influencers play, gamble, and win is not the major point, though, because that is not convincing for one to rush to start gambling because they saw an advertisement of an influencer playing and winning. I see that as not convincing because it is a fake advertisement, so in that case, it might be a fake win to entice gamblers to playing with them and when they do, they start to tell stories and lots more.
that's why we have to be smarter in assessing things, advertisements definitely promote what they advertise with the promise of big profits, of course to attract the interest of users, which in reality the advertisement does not match the facts.Chasing losses will only make us increasingly out of control and will most likely become addicts. If we have experienced this it will be difficult for us to stop because all we have in mind is the ambition to win at gambling, therefore according to the title of this thread "chasing losses it's a dangerous thing"
Agree with you, we have to be smart in choosing and understanding what the aims and objectives of advertising are so that we don't easily believe and don't easily take promotions that have been advertised, because in fact most of the promotions that are advertised do not match the facts stated or promised.
It is true that by chasing victory or chasing defeat in gambling, a person will not be able to control his gambling because he really wants his hopes and desires to be fulfilled, if they are not fulfilled then he will become more brutal in gambling, even to the point of being said to be an addict, so what is true? what you said. If you have become an addict, it is very difficult to stop this behavior and can even last for quite a long time.
Obviously, what we see as advert by influencers are not what they are in the reality. They are sometimes the opposite of what we think they are after going through the process and having the experience.

I consider chasing losses to be the first step towards ruin because to chase losses every gambler will definitely deposit or use more money, whereas once they start betting the losses will never stop.
This kind of behavior must be thrown away from gamblers if they want to be able to enjoy the true happiness of gambling.
This kind of behavior must be thrown away from gamblers if they want to be able to enjoy the true happiness of gambling.
There's no joy in chasing losses; it just reflects our inability to accept defeat and the desire to always come out on top. This approach doesn't involve logical thinking; it's solely based on emotional decisions, and I'd argue it's a flawed strategy unless you have an infinite amount of money.
Once you start chasing losses, your patience begins to wane, and patience is a crucial trait for maintaining discipline and safety in gambling.
