You are indeed lucky if you got it all back from a mistake that could've been the biggest regret of your life if it goes south. Well, this kind of experience will be a good lesson for us too and without it happening we may not realize that we badly need that rest first so that we can think straight.
I also had my own experience in this kind of situation where lack of sleep became an issue but it was not because of the flu or something like a sickness, my only reason was that I stayed up all night chasing my losses and then I wake up way too early just because I want to continue getting back all of it.
It's a wrong thing to do and I learned my lesson the hard way.
Many things have happened in gambling cases and you almost experience mistakes if you are unlucky, I think this incident can be a lesson for anyone that don't force yourself to gamble when you are in a condition that does not support gambling activities, fatigue is the main reason which needs to be avoided before you gamble, because you will make mistakes in setting the bet amount which can have fatal consequences and can lose your entire balance if you lose at gambling.
My friend almost made the same mistake in slot betting, but his friend warned him that he entered the bet value incorrectly because he was tired and not focused on gambling, luckily he immediately changed the bet value before he pressed the bet button, he almost lost the high bet if he lost that bet.
Luck or not, we should do the right thing at the right time, and I do not know the reason why someone would still be betting when he is tired or his current mood and psychology do not support that. What do you expect? Well, I do not pity people like this if I should be frank, gambling is not by force, so why not engage in the activity when everything is set? What if the gambler presses $2000 instead of just $20 while wagering if he has big funds in the account? The risk is too high compared to the benefits, it is better we do the right thing in this regard. I wonder how such a person will even calculate and forecast well depending on the gambling aspect we are talking about, it's certainly that kind of risk I will not be willing to take.
For me, I gamble in casinos when I want to have fun. This means that I can't have fun when I am stressed and the solution to that is to rest and cool my head off first. I can only have fun when my body is active, including being in a good mood for the gambling activity. Also, I gamble the sports for the money, to be precise, but I do this strictly and professionally (if that is the right word to use). I make sure that I do thorough research and also make comparisons online these days. That's a whole lot of work that can't be done in a hurry and surely when I stress my mind, I won't be able to do that because it takes hours of my time to get the conclusion on the entire team I like to bet. And since health is wealth, I better postpone the quest.
