This will be successful if the person receiving the advice is able to carry out the advice well. Unfortunately, many gamblers have bigger egos than receiving good advice to apply. Even though the people around him have warned him not to chase losses, when he loses again, he will start to continue playing with the same method even though he has to lose more money. Gamblers who are addicted and cannot think by continuing to chase losses will only be able to control themselves when they are in a bad condition.
It is true that what you said will work if applied consistently when gambling, but only a small percentage of gamblers are actually able to do this. And in reality, there are many gamblers who find it very difficult to give advice even if it comes from their own family, because if all that is on the gambler's mind is playing and playing then it is very difficult to accept that this will only be in vain. time and there may also be misunderstandings. between their own families.
If indeed they are addicted to gambling, in my opinion it means that they cannot control themselves until they become addicted like that. and by becoming addicted it also means that their thinking has been greatly influenced by gambling, they will only think about gambling, it is unlikely that they will think about the losses or the risks. and those who only think about winning are wrong because that way what will happen is big losses such as gambling continuously without thinking about the negative impacts.
When they experience a loss, many of them take action to gamble again at the same time, because they may be annoyed with gambling that does not result in a win, so they take actions that they should not, such as chasing losses. As time goes on like this, what will happen is that you will lose more money, even though in gambling there is a chance to win, but we shouldn't have high hopes for gambling. that's not the right thing to do.
Agree with you, it is true that the addictive factor of a gambler is caused by a lack of self-control and since the first time he entered the world of gambling he had the wrong perception about gambling, namely only seeing the profits when he wins but not seeing the bad side when he often loses.
Maybe what you say is true, friend, when gamblers often experience defeat when playing, they will be psychologically disturbed so that their emotions are unstable and then they will become more aggressive in playing again and again.
