Tracking your wins and loses for the purpose of knowing your overall profit and loss in gambling is a good thing but it is more suited to those who bet with small amounts, who are responsible gamblers and hence they will either be in profits or their loss will not be significant. This tracking will further help them be cautious and play with even more planning.
Now coming to the the gamblers who aren't responsible ones, who will be gambling with emotions and putting big money in some bets in the hope to make good profits. These people's overall loss is usually high and if they calculate their profit and loss in gambling, they may come to know about their big losses in gambling. This may make them even more emotional and they may start to revenge gamble, This is even more harmful for them as excessive gamble to recover the loss never turns to be fruitful. For such people, i don't think that tracking the gambling progress could be a good idea.
that's true, perhaps the goal is like that because it makes sense to know your overall profits and losses in gambling, but I don't think every gambler does this, in fact I think it's very rare for anyone to do this, because when they think In gambling, they most likely only think about winning, so they can also forget or ignore other things besides the gambling they are doing. It's true what you said, maybe this is only done by intelligent gamblers, where they always pay attention to every money they lose and gain in gambling, in my opinion this includes fairly good money management, because not everyone can do it well. and maybe this is one way to gamble carefully.
That's what happens in many cases, of the many gamblers, I'm sure 9 out of 10 gamblers are irresponsible gamblers, gambling with uncontrolled emotions and without good self-control. This is always a big problem and happens most often. In fact, in my opinion, if they had to compare the number of losses and the number of wins, what they could calculate is the wins, not the losses, because in my opinion the losses definitely happen often and of course the number is greater than the number of wins they get while gambling. I agree with you, because some people don't care about this.
