Self-control is hard in gambling despite of the strategies that you have, this is a biggest challenge for every gambler. Its sad to hear that most of the gamblers are still playing with a lot of greed most of the time when there's a losing streak.

True, the most difficult part in gambling is self restrain especially when we are winning during the early rounds of play. We think that we can win again since we have experienced it but gambling is gambling, it is a game of chance.

That's what usually happens in the gambling, we experience a win at the early rounds so that it gives us confidence that we can get profit again. if you really are looking for profit then save you profit, by quiting for playing that day and gambling again tomorrow

Haha this is how casino investment will run around while we gamble there.

We must need to careful while we gamble and it makes profit again and again then will create the interest to put more investment in casino. If you are careful then you will be push to loose all the money buddy.

A lucky glimpse of win will lead us to much deeper engagement, lots of gamblers suffered with stress and too much anxiety after losing lots of money inside this activity, it's eating everything inside their minds keep thinking of how they will play well and create new strategy from time to time, but end results still the same, losing their money because greed is always there after.

I have experienced this kind of thing even recently I have been controlled by greed and of course by not being able to control myself, I have lost everything in gambling, which means gambling has eating my brain and money. Even though you quiting that day and gambling again tomorrow, it's not enough for you to get good results, because luck is the main factor even though you have many strategies in gambling.

Gambling losing streak,

I’m into gambling for about months now, and in my first game I was able to generate profit enough to be happy, I continued for the rest of my 4 weeks of playing, sometimes its breakeven but I know its ok.

My friend invited me to play with him in casino this time, I have enough money to play for so I decided to say yes. Bad luck comes to me this time, at first my loss was about $500, so I know it is still fine and decided to continue, but the moment we stopped I think its too late now since I’ve already loss $3000, a very bad day for me. I’ve lost the money I’ve worked hard for.

This is an eye opener situation for me, and I’ve realized that gambling was slowly eating my brain and my money. Now I’m broke but still kickin, this can be the proof that chasing your losses is not good at all and it should be avoided. Have the same experience with me? Don’t hesitate to share and give some thoughts for those who are suffering from sitution like this. Sad

Never been in the same situation since the only gambling I regularly engage in is lottery and that's usually just once every 1-2 months. And I go out of my way (literally) to avoid it. Walk quickly past the outlet or take a different route.

As you said yourself, the best you can get is breakeven. You're not supposed to expect to make profit out of this, it's for entertainment. You should've just set an amount to spend on it for a month and don't dip in your other savings when you lose.

Set something like 10% of your income and label that as "entertainment". Use that for everything related to entertainment like movies and gambling. When it runs out, you stop spending until it gets topped up again the next month.

In my own personal opinion, the reason why you are having some lose streaks in gambling is because you don't have any self control in playing that when every time you lose you are becoming greedy in betting that you are thinking on how you would get back all of your losses. Honestly, i also experience losing a huge amount of money in playing in my favorite crypto casino and i didn't win it back. Since that time, i still gamble my profits in crypto casino but i learned how to control and limit myself in betting that even i still experience i lose streak i still manage to get all of my losses. If you will gonna ask my favorite crypto casino has hundreds of famous casino games that a lot of gamblers enjoy it like poker, baccarat, blackjack, roulette, and slots. Try visit and play to this site because they offer great bonuses for new players that you can get 225% on deposits and get up to 1,000 mBTC. Laslty, gambling is not all about taking the risk to gamble and for to become addicted in playing. Gambling is really for entertainment and also a way for you to have easy money by playing.

This is gambling, we will always fall and become broke if we keep on playing.

Not if we keep ourselves on check. I have been playing in an online casino but I never have problem with it since I always allot a certain amount that will not hurt my family budget.

Good to hear that OP is still ok, I believe he learned a lot from this mistake and never to do the same thing again. This is gambling, we will always fall and become broke if we keep on playing.

He must be else he can watch his self ruined by gambling.

that's gambling, when we lose and we force play to get our money back, it is the lose streak that we can get. things that have often happened, I've even experienced.

We do makes loses in gambling but that do not mean people are not making profits. I think the number of people that makes lose are higher than those that makes profits and that is why we are more focusing on losing than profits.

It is someone loss while the others will win, this would be the result in gambling. It is very attractive and eager to play when we win at first but we loss more than we win as we keep on playing. We've just only realize it when we run out of money in our pocket and decide to stop.
In reality, more losses will be in our part rather than of winning against the house.

Many people think that gambling is a way to make quick money, but that's not the case. When i started gambling, i was quite happy, as i won a few round and make some quick money, but as the time passed I just lost all my funds.

Gambling is a way to make quick money, that is, if the odds are in your favor. But we don't know that, right? No one else does. We just try to grab and take the risk because we believe that the more we risk, the more we will gain. However, that is not always the case. The more we risk could also mean that we have more to lose. But since we want to have a comeback, then we tend to take the risk and gamble again. That's when we lose control of how much we spend, of ourselves—because of our hunger for victory.

Self-control is, indeed, easier said than done. But should we settle on that thought? I think our discipline must be greater than our hunger of winning (in gambling). We have already seen and read other's experiences regarding gambling—that there is really a huge chance of losing. And sometimes, we just don't learn from it unless we experience it firsthand but we don't have to wait for that time. It may be hard to at least minimize the habit, but if there's a will, there will always be a way.

This is because our brain is thinking that we want to get our lost money back and that is when the losing streak happens. Gambling can make you greedy either if you win or you lose so the best thing to do in order for gambling not to consume your brain is just not to gamble at all.

But thats not the way gambling thinks,to different from what we wanted them to do ..our hearts are serious about the concerns but gamblers has their own dedication on what they are doing so lets pray that they will realize all of this in future

So what does this mean?we must treat gambling as enjoyable tool and not for profitable one.so the thing is when you want to gamble set yourself to enjoy and not to profit

And when you lost all of your funds, you don't have to be sad because that is what gambling did to you. We can win in the game but we can also lose in the game, and it depends on our luck. So if we can manage the money we use in the gambling game and never use too big money, then if we are losing the money, we know that is the risk of playing gambling.

When we can realize about the risk, then we can think about how much money we should use to place the bet, and we can know when we need to quit and leave the gambling place because we don't want to become addicting to gambling.

Initially people might win the money from gambling but longer the duration more losses will be incurred and this is where people who have control will either exit or restrict them self just for the fun and not to make money from gambling.

Gambling can indeed, give you a quick profit IF the odds are in your favour.

How can we do that when most gambling games has house edge, and most gamblers play that kind of luck based games.
Odds is never on our favor, its just luck that can give temporary win.

Quote from: qwertyup23 on April 30, 2019, 09:51:16 PM

Set a limitation on your winnings/losings and make it a point to have discipline over yourself and temptations.

That's right, we have to set limitation so we know how to stop, not able to control ourselves will lead to addiction.

I had been a great gambler as I used to be a Tennis player myself till I met with an injury which destroyed me completely. It may sound stupid but when I was playing the game myself, my predictions were next to great and I was able to fetch all the information lied behind the scenes and win over and over again but after I stopped playing (due to my knee surgery), I didn't win a single bet (this is what may sound stupid here but truth) and had big continuous losses which made me lose my entire life savings in it. I never went behind my losses to be recovered, I just made bets and lost them one by one, no martingale strategy, nothing. It is not a good idea to go all in with all the money you have saved in your life as it may become a life threatening experience for you when you watch them going and getting added to the gambling website's house edge bankroll.

What is important is you should know your limitations when you gamble, especially when you are on a winning/losing streak. Accumulating and losing profit will slowly hamper your decision making and may cause unfavorable results like what happened to you.

Knowing when to stop is the key factor in gambling. I know that it may be difficult especially when you are on the situation but only regret would follow afterwards.

Gambling can indeed, give you a quick profit IF the odds are in your favour. If you try your luck and after a few games you realized that you are on a losing streak, trying to recover those losses will only make your situation worse. Set a limitation on your winnings/losings and make it a point to have discipline over yourself and temptations.

It's good that you have learned your lesson in gambling, what's unfortunate is that you have learnt it the hard and expensive way. Most gamblers get addicted to it because they thought they were just having fun, but as time goes by without noticing entertainment becomes greed. You keep losing and chasing for those losses makes you waste all your hard-earned money.

Play with moderation and just enjoy gambling on your free time. Do not waste too much time and money on it.

This how a compulsive gambler start, until he becomes so miserable, that he doesn't know how and when he stops, the moment you says that you will stop until a certain time or after you keep promising that you will stop after you regain your losses, but it's not going to happen and you will just continue to be miserable.
