Topic: Focus on how much you may lose and not only the potential win. - page 9. (Read 2115 times)

When we are used to losing, there will be a tendency to experience boredom when gambling and maybe that will make us try to reduce our gambling activities. We will not be passive about gambling and will not be too interested in trying to gamble again because we often experience loss. It is a way to try to reduce their gambling activities because when they get bored of gambling due to continuous losing, they will realize that gambling is not for them, so they have to leave it immediately. Especially if they can see that they have lost a lot of money while gambling, so they have no desire to gamble again for a while. If they can fill their free time by doing other things, they can really leave gambling perhaps forever, especially with the experience of experiencing continuous loss. It will make them not want to experience it again.

This your perspective is a good one but then it's very much applicable only when you are just getting entertained and be sure it's strictly entertainment you are doing and no form of expectations are involved , not the self decit of entertainment meanwhile you have some other expectations along side.

It's important you focus more on how much you are loosing and that's when you will be able to employ good risk management, this doesn't mean you will not give attention to your winnings, definitely you should also consider what you will get in return if this favours you.when you give attention to how much you could loose, there's this consciousness on how much you will risk because you now get to watch the amount you are risking as compared to your pocket size. Trying to strike the balance keeps you profitable because you know if you win, you are making this much but if you loose you will be Lossing this much too aswell.

The different thing in between minding losses over winning is that on the time that you do get used to loses then you would really be that making yourself that somewhat numb towards it.
This what causes you for not to be that impulsive anymore towards gambling specially that you do able to realize those things along the way and make you realize that it was never been that easy
on making winning on gambling on which it is really just that totally opposite on what you had been expecting or anticipating because once that real shit things happen then
this is where realization would be kicking in and this is really just that that typical stuff. Somewhat it cant be avoided that people would really be sticking and minding about potential wins
and even going advanced.

but if we focus on defeat, our emotions will rise and be carried away by a heated situation, forcing the situation to return to previous defeats, I agree with not focusing too much on defeat and victory, if we focus on winning alone it is also not good enough because no one can we ensure to win in betting
If you have to be willing, win and enjoy

Gambling reflects our ego, a test of our nerves and greed. At first, many players play calmly, but then they are consistently swung from side to side by emotional swings, like a pendulum. From winning when the player imagines buying a new car, but losing when thoughts arise about borrowing money to continue this entertaining process. So, if a person is calm and balanced, he can simply close the game and continue next time, without the influence of emotions on him, but there are few such players. This will certainly infuriate other players and they will begin to bet more and more each time and at some point it will lose common sense. Therefore, the main thing here is to think about what we are like inside and what the game can do to us in the worst case, before playing it. What losses can we suffer? I am sure that almost no one ever thinks about this, everyone just wants to get rich quickly and have fun.

Players always focus on what they can get or, conversely, what they might lose and don't look at how much they can afford, whether we can afford to lose or we can afford to win, and this does sound strange because everyone will of course be able to accept whatever the winnings are but only a few are able to manage these results so that they can provide us with more benefits.
We read news about how people who win fantastic amounts in the lottery can only keep the money for a short time because in a short time they become poor again because they are mentally unable to receive the big money.

I agree with you, someone who is addicted to gambling or is obsessed with gambling tends to have a stubborn attitude and doesn't care about things that happen, such as the losses they experience. Their annoyance will probably also make them gamble more aggressively. In my opinion, in order for them to stop gambling, it seems like they have to have self-awareness first, because if they are aware of the losses that have occurred, they will probably start to consider gambling.

Of course this is a difficult thing, because it is impossible if they are already addicted or obsessed with gambling to stop completely at once, of course they have to face various things, including restraining themselves from being tempted by gambling. because they could be in the process of recovery but when they see their friends get a big win then they might go back to gambling, but if people are consistent with their decisions maybe they won't be easily tempted, even if their friends get a big win.

This will happen when someone gambles and wants to make money from gambling. He will become more focused on recovering from his losses, which will never be easy because he will probably face many losses. He will probably spend so much money just to recover his losses that he will not realize he has actually lost a lot of money.

When he has won and still wants more wins, he will continue his gambling game and hope to get the next win, as if the win he has already gotten is not enough to satisfy him. In fact, things like that should not happen when gambling because it will only trigger him to experience loss again and again so that he will only lose more money. We do need to calculate the losses and the money lost, but we cannot recover the losses because it is difficult and requires more money, which also does not guarantee that we can recover the losses. That's why if we don't want to lose a lot, we have to be able to limit our gambling activities so that we don't have to lose a lot of money.

It was very difficult to realize that he had gotten too deep into gambling when he was already obsessed with gambling. This will only lead him deeper into gambling without even realizing it, which will only give him more problems. He can develop a gambling addiction because of his obsession, and when that happens, he will not see the fact that he has actually become a serious gambling addict. He will also experience more loss than before because he cannot realize that reality.

If there is no awareness that he has a gambling addiction and needs help to cure it, a person will fall into gambling, and his gambling will become even worse. He will not be able to think clearly just because he wants to gamble, while he has nothing left because everything has been lost or run out due to excessive gambling. A person who can accept the reality and truth about his losses from gambling and his gambling addiction will try to open himself up and tell his biggest problem so that the people around him will try to help him. That's the possibility that can happen to people who only focus on recovering from their losses without realizing that they are already too deep in gambling.

Gamblers who show no appreciation for winning, would regret they won. Those who regret don't feel happy after winning because they would regret not wagering a bigger amount to the game. It's not a good form of gambling and such gamblers end up in huge regrets trying to stake next the designated huge amount in their mind. When they lose out the huge amount, they'll wonder and blame themselves why they didn't wager smaller amount of money. These experiences leave the player not to enjoy his gambling habit. As it's enticing to feel happy after winning, regardless of the amount we lose in the process. Enjoying the process is better than complaining over the amount we won in gambling. There are stages to the amount of money we wager in gambling, and we all can get to a level where we'd wager effortlessly huge amount of money.

Isnt it like we're all playing this unpredictable game? "Play what you can afford" sounds straightforward, but its hard to do, especially when emotions are high. I've rollercoastered between stopping and depositing "just once more".

Sometimes we forget that gambling is intended to be pleasurable. When you reach your limit, its good to step back. Being self-aware and controlling the game is key.

Its a game, so enjoy it, everyone surfing this wave. Always play within your means, celebrate triumphs, and learn from losses. Responsibility isnt enough - you must keep the game fun. Who knows. They may be the true jackpot we're after.

That's the school of thoughts that we have been preaching in this community, just play what you can afford. But in principle it's really hard to follow that rule as per my experience. Sometimes I wanted to stop already and not gamble the money that I won or simply quit when I exhausted the money, my bankroll for that particular gambling session of mine.

But there are times that I will deposit not one but twice and lose again before I realized that what I'm doing is not correct and it's better to stop and stop the bleeding on my end. So for those who practice this adage, good for you, but I will assume that gamblers are tempted to deposit or have that itch to put more money beyond our budget.

Of course, a gambler should gamble with that amount of money that gambling and losing that amount by gambling will not have any negative impact on his life. When it comes to gambling we forget that they should gamble according to their financial means. I don't think a person would decide to gamble in that situation if all the money is exhausted to support his family with his monthly salary. Not only this, but many times it is seen that even after spending enough money for his family, even when there is some money left, that person should not gamble because if he loses a small amount of money by gambling, it will be difficult for him to take care of his family. Although it is difficult to be responsible in gambling, when a gambler is responsible he will have illusions about his money so that he will not be too greedy in gambling.

People who are rich have fulfillment in life with money because they are in a position to do whatever they wish with the money they have earned through different businesses or through investments. For common people or middle-class people, it is really tough for them to get fulfilled as they keep on working to make money and meet their needs. This is why most of the gamblers we saw were poor and middle-class people. When they bet $100 and win the bet, automatically he or she'll think we should've placed a higher amount so that more commitments and needs could've been managed for the month. This is the reality and a natural happening with the common people. As the OP said, everything needs to be calculative if not life gets ruined.

It takes a long time for gamblers to realize this, everyone always have their minds on the winning side only, it could have been harder for me to realize too but I already knew what gambling was all about, so I focused only on how much I am willing to lose over time and that's why I always enjoy my gambling session, few times I always get lucky, when I was not even expecting the luck to unfold on that day.

This is better and safer than having your mind on when you will win, you won't enjoy your game and your will be left with the guilt of mind for losing over and over, to become a good gambler you need to face the reality of gambling, that's by embracing loses over and over.

To make your losing not accountable for, you need to go your lowest, risk only what you can afford to lose, because you will have more losses visiting you than luck, just accept things and enjoy your games, the little the money, the more gambling activities you will be able to engage in, and you will have some winning days.

This is both an interesting and important way to look at how important it is to have a plan and only bet as much as you can afford to lose when you gamble. Instead of a smart and responsible way to gamble, the thought of "had I known" often makes people raise their bets out of greed. A very important piece of advice for safe gambling is to think about what you can afford to lose instead of what you might win. To promote healthy gambling behavior, it is helpful to remind people to stick to their budgets and keep an open mind about risk.

Someone who is very obsessed with gambling will find it difficult to stop because they will not feel regret even if they lose because their goal is only to be able to get as big a profit as they hoped for. If they feel regret they will stop and not be more obsessed with gambling. If one day he has lost everything, he will feel that his obsession has gone too far and plunged him into ruin.

It is not easy to cure someone who is obsessed with gambling, this can also be said to be an addiction, they tend not to be able to think clearly and always think about gambling continuously without thinking about how big their losses are, which is increasingly detrimental. In this case, of course someone will deepen their role and still not think about anything to avoid gambling.

Gamblers can profit if they limit greed. If I start my bankroll with 1k and win 10k bets with that money I still want to win more. And when such a gambler's greed works at that time10k or 20k any amount they will loss. A common complaint of gamblers is that they can't win at gambling, but my question is how does a person who won't take a break after winning 10 times keep gambling money? If a gambler cannot keep track of profit and loss, he will certainly not be able to profit from gambling. Again, a gambler should accept losses and conduct his gambling accordingly.

It's right to do so, but also on the other approach, we can always have it in mind that gambling is a fifty by fifty chance on winning or loosing, so we are to prepare for the best and expect for the worst to happen, this will not get us into disappointment when what we expect didn't show up as winning.


Having luck is not by how determined we are by the kind of bet we are playing in gambling, what we know about it also matters, which also comprises the skills we have in it with the luck that comes along with that same particular bet or game we are playing.

In my personal opinion I think that we don't need to focus on how much will lose and how much we own potential win. I always think that before doing gambling we should know our afford zone. And then we should make a strategy and set a limit then starting gambling. In this case I think we don't need to focus and your them lose and winning.

Well, when it comes to doing things better, it's true that you don't always have and get it into your head that you have to win by swearing, personally I have always said something, a casino and the games have to take care of themselves like the Fun , fun is the only thing that can help us try to save things, because seeing the casino as a way to earn an income, something like a job, well it's not good, things sometimes turn out very lucky, and well It may be that things can be focused on making them the best possible, I have seen how many people always go to the casino with the hope of winning, but they know very well that not much can be Done, that is , one should not see the casino as if it were a case of stress, of something that cannot be done whether he wins or not, well that is something else, but the plans of what happens there is something else.

Casinos are something else now, they have Different ways of seeing things , of course there is something that you have to know, it is that a casino will always have its own way of winning, the advantage of the casino is something that every Player must be aware of, and when a player is aware of that, he Understands and understands that Sometimes things are not so easy, and that many more things can be done to have more ways to play to win , and when one does not win, the player does not have Blame the casino that Stole it , just as you win you also lose , things in casinos have to be known how to do so as not to cause Inconvenience in our Pocket , for Example if we are playing and lose , we should not Insist, we should Accept , they must They always look for revenge in a casino because they lose more than they should, so it is a Matter of growing Up and showing that the casinos when they win have to take Advantage and withdraw the money , because if not, the money is gone, and if it goes, that's it, Everything , in a casino you must have Money , otherwise things will not Turn out well and that is what we Cannot Allow you.
