Gambling is not only about winning and losing, but about psychological control

Gambling is strictly to win or lose and gambling has nothing to do with human mental or psychology. Gambling is not health care center that controls humans psychology. It is the person that will control his thinking after losing because if the gambler has no thick skin then after losing he might do something tht is not normal so to avoid that he has to reset his mind when gambling to know that he might win or lose and whatever happens he has to control himself.

Therefore gambling behind winning and losing is not clear for me to understand.

However it's hard to control anything that has to do with emotions, it's just like dealing with something you know that if you don't control it it will harm you but you still see yourself doing it. Greed comes when we are winning and we still feel bad when we lose that's why emotions is included. There's nothing like been perfect in knowing how to gamble, if you are lucky you are lucky but if you aren't lucky you are not lucky. Gamble is way more than winning and losing, I agree with that, so it's important to control the mind of greed we have towards gamble.
Usually a gambler finds it very difficult to control their emotions when they suffer a large loss. Yes, at least every gambler must or struggles to control his psychology in order to gamble calmly or well in this case. So that they focus on every round he plays. Gambling is not just luck but in my opinion this is how someone can take advantage of the opportunities we hold during the round, if we can take advantage of them well of course we will get profits from there.

What you say is indeed a fact that happened. Psychology is very important for those who know gambling well, for this reason psychological characteristics and mental phenomena must function well to overcome problems when we win and lose, we must be truly aware of the sequence that will occur when the symptoms of thoughts and desires appear, it clearly has risks that cannot be controlled if greed is in our minds, for this reason several psychological issues must be had so that gambling is indexed with methodprofessional.

This psychology thing is very complex. I have seen many people talk about trading psychology, gambling psychology, and a long time ago a psychologist said that such a thing did not exist, that trading psychology, gambling psychology is simply something that has been invented to make money. Psychology is psychology. What we must keep strong is our way of solving problems, of how to successfully face failure in order to move Forward and realize that we must see Each failure as a hard opportunity to learn a lesson.

Win or lose --most gamblers still lost control of their emotions.
When a gambler wins, they gamble more thinking of making more money. When the gamblers lose, they still gamble in the chase of their money. Both of they has a psychological effect on us and we tend to control it but sadly, we can't because what is on our mind is making money, not of having fun and pleasure.

What we feed into our minds has a significant impact on our decision-making and actions.
How to do this - psychological control? No other than but started manipulating our minds into thinking that we are gambling for fun, not for money. Otherwise, we give a reason why it goes this way --losing control.

Psychological control is definitely needed while gambling so that we don't deviate from the motive of gambling.
Our motive while gambling should be fun and entertainment but many of us get deviated from this.
Gambling sites have been designed to win in the long run and they know that a user will keep playing for a long term and eventually lose all his money.
We should keep this in mind and stay in control of ourself and play calculated bets only.

Psychology control is a very big struggle for most gamblers, they are either battling it or they may have been able to device a means to handle it but every gambler at some point had to battle psychology control in other to be able to gamble well and make sure they win their game or if the loose, they don't get to suffer so much loose probably because they want to still recover, knowing when to stop and when to still play, knowing when to stake low and high are all function of the gambling psychology control.
It is true that very few gamblers can control their psychology when gambling, but if they can do this, of course they will not gamble beyond their capabilities, of course this will make them addicted and if they experience defeat while betting, of course this will be very It's difficult to control ourselves and if we can't control ourselves we will of course continue to chase defeat to be able to win but we don't get anything from it.
Being able to know when is the right time to gamble is of course very difficult to do, but if they can manage the time of the gambling they play, of course this will be very good for their psychology and the money used for gambling.

Gambling has and always been a game of psychology for every participant. And whenever we are compelled to behave in a certain way like all the members have directed, we all forget that all our duties rely completely on psychology. The brain has to be controlled through the mind for a player to completely abide by the advises being shared across multiple gambling communities. A player who is not capable of managing his psychology wouldn't perform well in gambling.

It's quite very tough to master our psychological behaviors especially when losing our funds and gaining a quick one. Many a time I'd notice some unexpected expenses happening after winning some money. Such things happen involuntarily whenever money is with us. Imagine going to the mall with lots of money, you'd get things you never had in mind to purchase. Hence, while players focus on winning, developing their psychology security is superbly and excellent strategy for to hold tightly.

Controlling emotions isn’t an easy one especially when the gambler isn’t a professional one but I think anyone who is able to deal and control their emotions when gambling is already on a very good track to success in gambling.
The ability for a gambler to know when to stop playing and when to play is paramount in gambling and that very skill is what differentiate a successful gambler from the non successful ones.

On the other hand, I on the contrary believe gambling is basically about winning and losing because in the gambling industry, no one actually cares which technique you use, what matters is that you’re winning and the moment you’re winning, you’re seen as a successful gambler regardless of how long you’ve been there

That is why gambling should not be abused, but should be used extremely rarely as entertainment. Any activity that turns into a routine spoils the psyche. Gambling should be entertainment, but any normal person will agree that entertainment, which occurs quite often, is simply harmful to health. Therefore, on those days when you have an amount of money that you are ready to spend merely, feel free to go either shopping or to a casino or restaurant. But when playing, do not go beyond the money with which you sit down to play. It’s better to win, stop, and buy something useful for yourself than to lose everything under the pressure of greed, even the amount you came with. If there is no understanding of your control, it is possible, in order not to undergo treatment for depression, not to start gambling at all.

You are talking about the frequency, and that's the main innovation if we compare ways of gambling in the last decades and centuries. It has become much easier to find places to gamble, to the point that nowadays you have the casino in your pocket, if you want. A great responsibility for those who find gambling exciting: like with other substances and activities, if you feel anxiety, sadness or whatever negative feelings and you use them to feel better for a moment, control of the frequency is key to avoid further problems associated to addiction.

Yes, and maybe I would say that all of this will most likely only be experienced by gamblers who have been serious and hopeful about winning in gambling from the start, so it is clear that psychological disorders are something they may experience because of worries about losing money that they don't know. want.

But if we talk about winning gamblers who understand and realize that gambling is an activity that has a chance of winning but also has the possibility of losing our money in a short time then it is clear that they will not be too reckless in every decision they make so that when they put a lot of restrictions on gambling activities then it is less likely for them to experience actions that could lead them to much worse situations such as chasing losses, and also they will not have difficulty knowing about when is the right time to gamble.

Gamblers has some type of gambling pride that makes them not wanting to without fighting back accept the agony of loss. It's that feeling of been defeated without having to try to do something, that probably a flick of luck may happen to change things. It is that gambler with an intact psychology that will be willing to accept that losing and winning is part of gambling and any of the two that upshot has to be accepted without struggling about it.

Accepting the reality of loss makes you a better gambler because if you are ready ready to accept that you won, then you should be prepared to accept loss too. In fact, the moment you stake or wager any money on gambling, you should know in that moment that the money is gone one, you can only consider it as yours if the game really won something you place as prediction, this is the statement that says "stake the amount you can afford to lose should be remembered"
Time ago, i have been in a sports betting hall where I heard a gambler murmuring to himself about a bet he had lost that he wasn't supposed to lose that very bet on those games. He was kind of soliloquizing with himself about how sure he was about his choice of predictions. What am I trying to make here? It is these sets of gamblers that finds it hard to believe or agree with the reality that any game can end badly regardless of the efforts exerted in making the prediction.  So here there worry isn't about amount of money they used in staking (probably because he used money he's not worried to lose) but because of how much of analytical effort he exerted to arrive at those prediction of his which for him the game should have been won.

The best way to stop these two factors is to either know how to control yourself emotionally or you should be stronger than your mind because greediness or not allowing yourself to be defeated all come from the mind, and if you have been in such a situation, you will discover that you will have two options in you: your body and your mind. If you try to win, one will support the greediness or not allowing yourself to be defeated, and the other won’t. and in many times the mind usually wins the competition, which is why many people fall victim to all things, but if really the you in you is stronger than your mind, I don’t think you might fall victim unless, in some cases, the mind wins. 
 
But if you trust yourself, you can put it in yourself that any win you get is ok for you, big or small. As you know, winning is winning, and the same applies to losing. If you succeed, you will find it very hard to even be a victim of addiction, but if not, you will be addicted due to mind control. 
That's why you must learn about controlling yourself so that will be useful when you playing gambling and will not makes you spends much money. When you can control yourself, you can calm down your emotion and will not thinks to chase the wins if you already wins and will not recovers your lose if you lose. You knows what you must do after playing gambling for some time so you will not keeps playing gambling.

If you can control yourself, you will not have to worry if you becomes a victim of addiction because you can holds yourself from playing gambling excessively and not spends too much money. You will knows how to manage your money and yourself in gambling and can use psychological control to holds your minds from keeps playing gambling. You knows that gambling is only for fun and not for chasing the wins or recover the lose and you can enjoy while playing gambling.

Self control is really important on gambling since if we just play cool then didn't bother to think other thinks like taking precaution on everything what we do then provably that we are heading in something that put us on danger. Emotion is mortal enemy of the gamblers so they must know how to deal with something especially their expectation so that they will stick into reality then don't hope for any unrealistic matters towards their gambling activities.

What people need to know for theirselves is that if they can't afford to lose don't gamble since if they push their selves because they think there's easy money to get from gambling since this is what they see from people online then maybe they should think twice and verify those information they get for legit sources to avoid getting slap by reality that gambling is serious matter and there's no easy way to get money here.

Online casinos are now easily accessible and anyone can create an account and play.
Profits and losses can happen easily.

And at every moment where gambling exerts psychological pressure that makes me sometimes unable to control it.

When Win: When a bet or gambling game that we do gets a win, Greed will appear and this will influence a person to keep playing with a higher target.
Even because someone is too greedy to never make a profit and continue to put all their money into gambling, until in the end everything is taken back by gambling.

When losing: Defeat will indeed be a moment that will make a person's mentality and psychology down, and even it will interfere with their psyche.
A deep sense of disappointment due to an unwanted defeat makes a person tend to be more emotional and want to take revenge for the defeat and ultimately make bets and gambling games without any restrictions.

These two moments of winning or losing will be the reason where a person's psychology will be played in a gamble.
Someone really has to know how to manage their emotions so that they don't get into situations they don't even want.
There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.
I read a post earlier where the OP asked which is easier between quitting after a win or quitting after a loss, from all the replies gotten from that post, it was very obvious that it isn't just about wins or losses, but self control and that is just the obvious truth. I have seen addicted gamblers who have always been lucky with their games,  yet are always lonely because while they were busy giving all their time and attention to gambling and celebrating their every wins, they were also unknowingly isolating themselves from all valuable relationships they once enjoyed. This is something that would have been avoided if they were able to control how they gamble and manage their time effectively.

It is even worse for the not-so-lucky gamblers who are yet to realise that they are losing more than they are earning yet keep gambling hoping to change the narrative someday. It is quite funny, I just hope they realise that no gambler without some control over is lifestyle really wins.

Winning and losing is a mental battle. When we win, our emotions are going cloud 9 and we can think of unimaginable things that seems to be positive for us. And if we're losing, that's the time when we're becoming pessimistic about things. So, OP is right that this is about psychological control and we tend to promise matters when we're happy and that's during the time when we're winning our bets. But when the time of losing has come, that's when we get bad mood, we think that the world is against us. As if we're going to lose our lives because of the bad outcome. That's how we make things for ourselves and we need to be perfectly set when those times comes. Well, they do come often because when we gamble we only have those two either of it as a result.
However it's hard to control anything that has to do with emotions, it's just like dealing with something you know that if you don't control it it will harm you but you still see yourself doing it. Greed comes when we are winning and we still feel bad when we lose that's why emotions is included. There's nothing like been perfect in knowing how to gamble, if you are lucky you are lucky but if you aren't lucky you are not lucky. Gamble is way more than winning and losing, I agree with that, so it's important to control the mind of greed we have towards gamble.

Imho the first mistake people do is that they end up in this situation where they need to decide right in that moment if they want to continue or not.

When win: This can be easily fixed by planning. With winning there needs to be a pre-planned exit target, and if that target is met, take out either all your winnings, or winnings up to that target. Either you choose, that choice should have been done before you have even deposit the money.

When losing::
When you are following your rules, choices to continue or not, that you are facing in the heat of the moment is removed from the equation. Trusting your rules removes stress, and only control you need is sticking with the plan. Improvisation in the spot rarely works when we talk about money.

There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.
 Winning or losing the only thing that you really should be concerned about is making sure that you don't go crazy on every win or every loss. A lot of people think that just cause they happen upon an outcome, win or lose, their next belligerent action is already warranted, most often seen in people who commit to revenge gambling where they end up losing more than what they should've cause they couldn't control their urges and they think so generous of the casino. Which is just not gonna happen.

Greed or depression you gotta know when to quit and when to really get in there and still push through, if you're not even having fun while you're gambling, is it even worth it? When the main point of gambling in the first place is so you could have fun while you're out there spending money?

People need to reconsider their life choices and find more ways to gamble smarter, you don't need to lose all your money to feel fulfilled, you don't need to win everything to enjoy gambling, find that middle ground.

There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.
No matter how hard we try, we can only limit the rate at which we allow the game to play with our emotions, but we can't completely control it to the extent that we can boldly say we don't get affected or move by whatever the outcome of the game is again. 
 
Even if one wins an amount that does not exceed their average income, it will still bring a moment of joy to them, not because they have not seen such an amount of money, but because they are happy for their game to play the way they predicted it to.
 
The same thing is applicable when someone places a bet on a game and ends up losing it. It brings about a little sadness as to why the person loses to the game; the person is not pained because they can't afford what they lose, but because that's how our emotions are, we can't completely decide how it will feel.
