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.

The both involves psychological control yes. If you are winning, you require to have control of yourself not to be over excited to begin the bigger risk which can take you off balance at any little unlucky move. In same vain while losing, it is not bad to take a walk and try the next time but so many gamblers lose their balance on the losing side for the purpose of chasing back what they have lost. If a gambler is in the habit of chasing loses then they can lose more because they will have unbalanced state of mind which won't allow for a cognitive decision. It is better building psychological control in gambling and most times it starts from walking away when you feel you should either while losing or winning.

And at every moment where gambling exerts psychological pressure that makes me sometimes unable to control it.
That's if someone wants to involve themselves in gambling, always based on feelings, awareness and also motivation regarding the positives of gambling and the negatives of gambling, where someone cannot control themselves, they will be trapped in a mental circle and uncontrolled thoughts, which can result in real losses when winning or losing.

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.

Very well said.

Rather what the OP says is garbage because gambling is fundamentally about winning, or rather the possibility of it. Besides, why do you need psychological control in EV-games? Or to play recreationally (and lose in the long run) in skill games? Not to lose a fortune, I guess, but if you have those problems you shouldn't even consider gambling in the first place.

Psychological in gambling is important if not then this will mess up your gambling especially when there are no limits, no discipline, especially irresponsible all those who do not do that will enter into greed if you win will be emotional when you lose.

I feel how it happens when playing at online casinos:
When they win, they don't want to stop because they think it's a lucky day so they will continue to play who knows the money they win is multiplied in the game, but in reality the money is all lost and becomes their mental regret.

When losing, wanting to catch up on any money losses will be entered without thinking about anything he insists on continuing to play because addiction to emotions is difficult to stop.

The only way when you win immediately withdraw, so you can enjoy the benefits of gambling.

This is why casinos and experts promote gambling responsibly to avoid the harmful effects of gambling, like disappointment and emotional turmoil.

We can only become responsible gamblers if we know our limits and set a realistic goal. If your goal in one session is to win this amount, and you reach it, then you have the will to stop and cash out without looking back.

We must not tempted to look back and think that we can regain our losses even if we are having a run of good luck.

Are you saying that gambling has a beneficial effect on testing a person's psyche due to these swings up and down due to wins and losses? Will the rate / price of psychological health be too high?

Someone really has to know how to manage their emotions so that they don't get into situations they don't even want.
The fact is that until you find yourself in a situation in which it is better not to find yourself, you will not realize the importance of managing emotions. In short, you won't know until you try.

There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.
Which for example?

As you said, psychological control is quite important for gamblers to be able to limit them from doing things that will harm them. For example, in this situation, gamblers often get caught in a situation where they are greedy when they win and take revenge when they lose - not only will this potentially cause them to lose all their money, but it will also potentially make them stressed or increase their potential for addicted to gambling. Practicing psychological control is very important for a gambler, because it will really help them reduce the potential for losing more money and gambling irresponsibly.

Try gambling without investing a lot of emotion into it, and you'll be fine.

There are different types of gambling. We have luck-based and skill-based, and these should be treated differently. In my opinion, luck-based gambling should be played for fun only. If you are serious about gambling, you should use your skills to be profitable. However, skills in winning alone are not enough as it also takes skills in discipline, accepting wins and losses as a normal part of the process, and proper bankroll management.

The biggest losers in gambling are people who do not understand the word "limit."

Unfortunately people who're gambling addicts will not read this thread, even they read this thread, they will not learn, even if they learn, it won't last long lol.

People never change, the one who're responsible gambler already responsible since the first time, the one who're irresponsible gambler already gamble a lot and lose everything when they tried to gamble.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
I keep it simple in gambling:

If you win - you stop.
If you lose - you stop.

On the contrary, people will "continue" in both scenarios, the reasons being:

for the first one - I won already, I must be lucky, I will win the next one (false confidence/euphoria)
for the second one - I lost, I must make it back (guilt)

These feelings need to be controlled, and those who cannot, should not gamble.

Gambling is very challenging, and you must know how to deal with these two situations. For you to have a good experience playing, you must control your greed and know your limitations. People become too addicted to gambling because they take the challenge seriously. They try to beat the house, and they don't know how to quit. Even if they are losing, they chase their losses.
The risk of playing gambling irresponsibly is too high; you are going to lose yourself if you continue playing irresponsibly.

All you mentioned are the exact feelings I used to have when my thoughts and plans were how to beat the casino and win huge; when you have the wrong thoughts, you will not have the right feeling and results.

We've been advised a thousand times that we should play with money that we can afford to lose, but if we try to hold on to that money as if that money should double, then we'll have the pressure that will make us not feel well and give us bad results, so stop trying to win and start enjoying the game.
You are right, I think many who just started playing had the idea that they will now beat the casino because they have a super strategy. And doubling is an almost 100% chance of leaving your deposit in the casino forever. Everyone must go through these stages, but at the same time, this would serve as a lesson for future games and then the game will really be fun and not a pursuit of the jackpot.

Gambling depends on the desire of each individual. Some people gamble for entertainment while others gamble for money. A person who gambles for fun will never try to make money, he will always gamble for fun. A person who participates in entertainment must gamble within a certain budget of income and must not spend any money beyond the specified budget. If a person gambles within his fixed budget then he will definitely not become addicted and if he is not addicted then gambling will never harm him. Use a fixed budget for gambling income that is no more than 1%-5%. If a person participates in gambling like this, I think he can never become addicted to gambling. Gambling is a very dangerous addiction and it is better to stay away from this addiction at all times.

I think this discussion has been done several times in the gambling board. When we get to talk about how a some persons do not have the self control to organize themselves whoever they win or lose. Gambling is about win and lose only when it comes to the psychological aspect then it should be referred to the person whose gambling.

The ability to control our selves when we lose or win makes us to either be a responsible gambler or a reckless one. It has nothing to do with the casino or local gambling shop. So i wont generalize [psychological control to gambling in general.

Let love lead
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.
There is this urge to be lost in your gambling activities without any form of control or personal restrictions is the reason people become addicts unknowingly. Yes, some people are actually addicted, but in their minds they are still under control. principles are very good to be made in all engagements in life to be able act and respond to every developments based on some predefined decisions. Greed is also in every human being, but being principled can help reduce most of those greed pattens in your activities.

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.
This is why it is important to have a gambling budget and only fund your account with the amount you can afford to loose even before starting out your gambling session, because truth be told, even the most experienced gambler sometimes fall victim to chasing losses and this is where the main funds are expended.

I always advise my friends to manage these emotions even before you start your gambling sessions, do not fund more than you intend gambling with for the day, when you win considerably, withdraw your excess funds and maintain your initial deposit. The only principle you have to uphold and the emotions you would manage is restricting yourself from funding your account again when you've exhausted the funds you previously funded to gamble with.

There must be limits and targets that need to be achieved, not only limited to winning and losing but more than that.
Periodically, winning or loosing in gambling has its psycho activations as we keep to play gambling even on the non profitable games we plays.

In as much we put to our greatest efforts to win, and then we looses, there is always this recruitment approach that is being inspired amongst us to reinforce with an utmost resistivity not to loos for the second time.

Meanwhile... Nomatter how best we puts, it can never be enough to guarantee "a must win" and then we just keep up intercepting that challenge of "must win".
Even when we wins, it still comes with its psycho effect which boosters our egos and being undisciplined, we could still lost it all back to the casinos.

Having a deep insight on gambling, it is not only characterized on winning and loosing as a common term but can be psychologically be affectional either positively or negatively depending on your ability to control your emotions in the gambling world.

 I think even during winning and losing periods, most gamblers might be tempted to continue play not until they finally exhausted their gambling funds which is totally wrong. A gambler should be able to make plan or strategy before going into his session for the day. Ones he meets a particular amount of funds he wish to win or lose, he can just opt his gambling session for the day. This way he will be able to protect his funds for another day.
Gambling is interesting when we make wins and one becomes emotional when they lose. So to prevent this you have to gamble responsible keep your mental health in place.

Playing gambling can gives pressure to any gamblers, even if they are a pro gamblers. Those who doesn't have good self control and other things will gets deeper in gambling without takes too long. Everything they gets from gambling can effects them to continue their gambling activity and makes them forget with what they needs to do in gambling. No matter if they win or lose, if they lose control, they will still playing gambling and will not remember that playing gambling is just for fun. That is why we must manage our emotions by always controlling ourselves in gambling and always be careful when playing gambling. Limiting their time and money will be necessary to prevents the lose not to becomes bigger. They don't have to achieve anything in gambling because that can effect their psychology and makes them difficult to stops gambling.

That's right, both of these cases are when the inner qualities of a gambler affect his future. If the gambler is greedy, then after losing, he will try to restore justice, and will try to win more and more at the casino in order to get his winnings back. And if the gambler has never been lucky, and at the same time he is greedy, then after the first win in the casino he will play a lot to repeat the winnings.
