I always tracked my gambling progress. I consider it important to keep checking how much I've already lost and won, so I don't lost control over my finances and betting activity. If I didn't do this, it would be impossible to reach any conclusions about gambling nowadays, what is a must in every things you do in life, so you can finally realize how benefical, harmful, or neutral that kind of activity is being for you, so you can adjust if you should increase its frequency, decrease or just maintain it.
Many people don't like tracking gambling results because they want to forget about their losses, as it's painful to keep remembering it frequently. However, I believe mistakes from the past should never be forgotten, because such memories and data can be useful in the future, so we will tend to avoid repeating them over again. If I'm allowed to say something to these gamblers it would be to not see their histories as a failure, but as a learnship that turned them into more experienced and wiser individuals.

Yes, I have the habit of tracking my gambling progress. If one wants to control the amount he is spending in gambling, he has to have to track his performance. Knows how much he is losing and how much he is winning. Trying to evaluate the statistics of the result of the gambling session is one of the actions in bankroll management that can greatly help gamblers know how much money comes in and out of their gambling activity and be able to adjust accordingly.
We do not need any spreadsheet for this because the casino oftentimes has the record of all our deposit and withdrawal activities. Simply checking them can give us all the data we need to know if we are in gain or lose.

Tracking your gambling can be tricky. It can help you watch your money and catch issues early. But it can also suck you in more and make you obsess over losses. So its kinda risky and you gotta think hard about whether it helps or hurts for you. Personally, Id be careful with it cause gambling already pulls at addictive strings for me. Its still nice to have the data but keeping some distance helps me stay sane.
But if you find it useful to steer through all the betting and stuff, more power to you.

Is it considered tracking when I only keep a mental note of the bets I made and losses or gains for the past week or month? I think everyone does that too whether intentional or not. To write it is something I've never done and I don't even check the history of my gambling accounts.
Better start writing it somewhere. Your memory is only reliable for a few good hours or days on these kinds of information. Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
Since you didn't explain what you mean by tracking your gambling progress, let me believe that it means following up your ticket game by game to know the fate of the game even before the last. If that's your stand, then yes.
I am into sports betting and it is my habit to follow my ticket game by game reason being that it is so easy for me to get over a game than it is to check a ticket after the end of the last game. Each time I don`t follow up on my game I notice panting in my heart when I check because of fear of losing the ticket and since this is my nature I always track the progress of my game.
In another aspect, I always check and balance every month to know if I am progressing or not because this can be another aspect of tracking gambling progress. This method of checking progress every month has guided me in setting a budget for gambling in the new month. When I have progress, I tend to increase a little but still with an amount I am prepared to lose and when I am on debit, I will take a pause or stick to the same amount.

How? We know that gambling is all about risk and anyone who is into gambling have already know what gambling is all about and I know quite well that gambling is all about good and bad and you can not track gambling from my understanding, so gambling is a game of risk and you can't hope that with gambling you can be able to win every day by day the way some people do think of gambling, I know quite well that gambling is by luck and for you to win a gambling you don't have to do other things so therefore let us that gambling have to do with something of good calculations but not to depend on gambling 
I don't track my progress, but I track the money that comes in and goes out of my wallet into my accounts. I don't think you would call losses and wins as 'progress,' as progress only means you're getting something of positive note when applied to this context in gambling. Anyhow, it's great if you have a tracker of your wins and loss and see whether you have profited for some time. If your analysis show that you are losing tons of money, then perhaps it's best to quit gambling or rethink of ways to not lose so much.
As it should be but we know that there are people who do really fail on doing such act on which they would really be just that liking on making themselves spending like a mad man specially on the time that they would be having those consecutive winning on which they would really be molding those kind of thoughts that they could really be rich with gambling on which this is really that a wrong mindset to have towards it.
Sooner or later, they will regret not keeping track of what goes out and what goes in of their wallet. I learned this just 2 years ago, and since then I wanted to know where my money is going and what can I do to save or invest more of it instead of spending on unnecessary things. People who believe that gambling is enough to make money and be rich are delusional. Only those operators will ever get rich or richer with gambling.

Not necessarily all the time, a few times I do just for a particular purpose which could cut across a few things such as trying a strategy or trying to get at a particular target gambling and at this point it's no longer just gambling for fun but for a reason so I'm other to be sure I'm making progress or gradually getting to what I aim at, I monitor my bet at that point.It actually not a really healthy practice because it may lead you to chasing losses at times especially when you suffer more losses than you do win, if you are not gambling for fun then you should be careful enough not to loose so much because you will definitely get to the point you may just feel you have lost so much and the only way to recovery is to start chasing after them and that could even lead to more losses which will further breed addiction and all other harmful habits.
For my kind of gambler, track keeping is an expeditious waste of time and energy and personal see no need to it as I don't gamble constantly and also not with that big amount that should need me to keep track on. If you find out you're losing more than you're making profits it's better to suspend the play and go for a leave from gambling, as maybe that's all what you need to get back to winning ways again and not to keeping track records.
It is not really a waste of time and energy to every gambler. Some people naturally are very good at record keeping as a way to track their activities to make sure that they are not doing one thing more than the other, it has become a lifestyle to them. If those kinds of people start to gamble, they may extend that habit into gambling by always keeping record and track of their gambling activities and progress on a notepad, or on any material that an information can be written or expressed on. In all their record and tracking their activities, they still manage to have some fun that they see as okay. 
Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
Yes I do and I do it very often cause I don't only gamble for fun I gamble for making more money too and most times tracking my games especially soccer bets when they are still ongoing helps me to get some returns in some games am not really sure that will go well as predicted. Not tracking my game has made me to lose money because I failed to take a cash out of a big amount of money and I eventually lost the bet so since then I don't joke with my bets once the game is running very well. I can't be far from where my treasure is cause I don't play to lose am always hoping to win always even though I don't win in every selection.
Although the main reason I gamble is for entertainment and fun. And victory is just a possibility. However, it is quite important for me to be able to know my development and progress in placing a bet. This can be an evaluation material for a better betting experience, by doing this it can clearly help us improve our abilities and skills in gambling or betting. Apart from that, this can also help me ensure and monitor that the gambling and betting that I do is running normally without causing significant losses. and even if there is a problem, I will always be able to take proactive steps to maintain control over my gambling activities.
By having the habit of tracking the gambling activities that we do, this can enable us to more easily identify a pattern that is quite risky or a negative tendency that we may often engage in. For example, you find that when gambling you tend to be more aggressive after experiencing several continuous losses, which is a very bad tendency because it can only result in losses, and if you don't realize it as soon as possible then this will continue. every time you gamble.

what will make a gambler develop the habit of tracking his gambling progress if he's either making more losses than profit is when he is using an attractive amount of money to gamble and many of these gamblers that uses large amount of money to gamble don't do it for fun, to them it is a serious business which is why they make sure to keep a track record to keep them abreast with their progress level if there is any at all.For my kind of gambler, track keeping is an expeditious waste of time and energy and personal see no need to it as I don't gamble constantly and also not with that big amount that should need me to keep track on.

Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
No, I personally don’t have such a habit.
I think it's all about the difference in approach to this matter. If a person gambles for fun, then there is no need for him to write down or remember anything. But if a person has hopes for gambling and calculates something, for example statistics or probabilities, that is, he already takes the game seriously, then he most likely should write everything down so that later he can see his mistakes and correct actions
Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
If you’re into profit, then most probably you’ll make time for this.Personally, I do have my monitoring activities to see how much money I’ve loss versus to the money I make in gambling and also since I gamble on a budget, i need to monitor if I’m still on a budget or I gamble too much already. Having your monitoring sheet is fine, this can help you assess your gambling habit where addiction can be prevented.
I only progress of my gambling section.
Like, how many streaks/lose I got and current profit. So, it will determine my gambling bet size in the future (In-case winning, try to increase a little bit especially on heater) meanwhile on losing but still winning try to use my base bet and not get triggered.
I believe people should do that as well, to maintain their bankroll.

The gambler had a opportunity to win in the game or loss the game based on their luck.The rich people had the good betting size,because of their holding money the betting size will be more.When the betting size was more the winning or multiple from the winning will be more,if you are betting in a casino.Now the poor gamblers make a betting of 10$ per betting,but the rich use to bet for the amount of 100$ per betting.In the casino both the gamblers won 4x of the betting money.The poor gambler get 40$ as profit,the rich gamblers will get 400$ from the single betting.
Both the gamblers betting based on their capacity,but the process make up the big win for the rich gambler.The gamblers who want to make the money from the gambling site,the risk taking in the gambling was more essential one in the gambling site.
Yes and I think it's a good thing to do and actually more gamblers should do it to be able to reflect on what's going on with their gambling activities. Casinos should also be providing a more comprehensive outlook at PNL and such metrics. I take it that if more people had a clear picture of what's going on with their gambling activities they'd be able to coordinate them much better and in consequence also gamble a lot more responsibly.
So yeah, tracking gambling is an important part of keeping it at healthy levels. Many people actually gamble more than they should and don't even bother to check, which is a drawback of bad tracking. Issues like this could easily be solved if more people were performing some basic checking and budgeting.

I don't monitor my progress in terms of profit in the game because I've already figured out in my head that when I'm playing that bet counts as lost money, so I've also got it in my head that in casinos I won't have more wins than losses. On the contrary, I always get it into my head that I will have more defeats than victories. This means I don't waste time seeing how many victories and defeats I'm having. Even if I don't see this I'm still aware that I have more losses than wins, even without seeing my statistics I can be aware that I'm losing more money than I'm making money and unfortunately there's nothing I can do to change it. that. add a new player
even if this new player was very skilled, it still wouldn't change anything, this new player would also have more losses than wins, which is why in my opinion it is very important that people realize very early on that gambling is not an investment in which the A person can create high expectations and can keep track of the investment to keep up to date with profits, in gambling this does not exist. Many people can discover the difference between gambling and investments when the person tries to track both and will see that in the investment the losses are small but it is just a matter of time to make a profit, in the case of investing in bitcoin, but the same value as the person invested in investment and invested in gambling, he lost everything in gambling and would not be able to recover it even if a hundred years passed

If a gambler has had the experience of having just one game stop them from winning a good amount of money from sports-betting, they will always check the progress of their games when played. Gamblers who gamble like this will always be affected by emotional pressure to cash out from their games sometimes before they are able to all play out correctly. Gamblers who do not track their gambling progress have a reason as backup for it for justification, gamblers who track their gambling progress each time may have even won more money from quickly cashing out when they have made profit from gambling before one or two game spoil their chances. Whichever habit you have, just make sure that it is not putting you at a disadvantage. 
Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
Only interested in betting on sports betting and occasionally trying to play other types of bets such as slots, even though his status could be said to be a rare game, so the habit of tracking gambling progress has never occurred to him.Other gamblers I don't know if they do, but I myself just enjoy every bet. Tracking gambling progress may be done by other gamblers who focus on gambling. Maybe they need to understand how gambling has developed recently, for example how many losses they have had and how many wins they have had.
