Give yourself a break.


At this point what do you think about this gambling strategy I use? Although yours may not be with 5-7 streaks in a week you can also set a number of streaks convenient with you to use. Or is there anyone out there already using this strategy and how beneficial has it being to you?

I have not used any strategy when I'm on a losing streak, there are days like this, where you have a long losing streak and there are days when you have a long winning streak and you will wonder how is this possible, its just circumstances that happen without your control when you are playing in a luck based platform.
But I can take a break any way I want gambling is not my priority, but it's not my last priority also I'm good at playing and taking losses and winning gambling so such a method is not something that I implement.

Not every prefer to take a break when they're in the winning/losing stream. When a gambler is in his winning streak he/she will look to continue his wager believing in luck to continue. This is common and the same might happen or turn towards loss. While a person is on his losing streak his loss tempts him to continue the wager to recover what he have lost. So, it is upto the user and the wagering scenario.  In my experience taking a break unlike the winning/losing is good for a better gambling experience.

Not a strategy to consider for me. It's like just being a responsible gambler that knows when to stop for a moment.

Taking a break is a must, not just when we are on a losing streak. It serves as a resting period for our minds not to fully be aggressive in gambling. Especially when on a winning streak, there's strong adrenaline that tells us to keep gambling and in the end, all that winnings will be lost.

Once gamblers manage to take a break whether they win or loss, that's can I call still having control over themselves.

Having a break in whatever thing that we do is important. It enables us to discipline ourselves and to have a rethink of our mistakes. Gambling is the same,since we gamble for fun and not for profit, if you begin to observe that your emotions is controlling your gambling activities, a break is needed,so that you don't get carried away with it.
People suppose to be gambling for fun and not for profit, but in real life, some people want to make profit from gambling and they are gambling for no two reasons but for profit. Either for fun or profit, people should not see it as a way of making money because that is one of the bad aspect of gambling. Either for the fun or profit, it is good to always have budget and not going beyond it. Also if losing already, that signals already that you should stop gambling for that day.

The fact that gambling is meant for fun isn't a reason why people shouldn't plan their ways of spending their money on pleasure. For instance, when we go for a vacation we make a budget for it, same way it applies to gambling. We are not obliged to stop gambling only when we are losing, sometimes as we win we can limit our gambling or better stake the winnings and stay observant not to cross our bank roll. But, OP's strategy is also recommended for every gambler that wants to enjoy gambling other than just playing to win. Such strategy would keep the player on game for longer time compared to a player that stakes all their budgets in a moment or day.

A break in gambling as it sounds is a good approach in controlling your expenses but the actualisation is the main thing because it take a high decision taker to make such bold step without any obstruction.

Yes, give yourself a break. It is okay. You mustn't gamble all of your money at a go. Clarity and direction birthed during the break. It is akin to taking a nap after a stressful day, you wake up refreshed. As the psychological benefits which I have mentioned, breaks from gambling serves as a regulator for gambling and a measure of your degree of addiction.
Someone who struggles with it is likely moderated to severally addicted to gambling. Watch it and if you have to speak with someone about it to hold you accountable or remind you to take a break, please do.

This is fair in statement, when we get into the reality it is surely hard to think of gambling just as a way to spend time for fun. As mentioned going with an allocated fund is good, but once you've lost those funds you should not think of recovering it back. Most of them try to recover the loss and ends up losing more.

What I do is that I have money that I set weekly for it, if I lose more than it, I stop gambling that week, no matter what. If I win and lose and the money has not finished, I can continue to gamble if I still see it interesting that week. I only go for gambling budget and just not more than 5% of my week income.
Same here but if i am on losing streak i sometimes need to take a break to walk and cool myself. I don't mind losing my weekly budget but not in one sitting because i am too heated and if i stay on the table i might want to make everything back fast and make way too risky bets without proper research and bigger bets.

When we gamble aren't we aiming to win?  Else, if we wanted to entertain ourselves then we can just do another entertainment method. I used to think that people gamble for fun, yes there is fun there when we are winning, but the truth, most of us gamble to win.  So, I agree with @OP that if a win is too aloof to us, we can take a break in order to minimize our possible losses.  This way we won't be agitated and lose our self control since often time, chasing loses often make our decision irrational.

I don't think this is a strategy mate. You're just giving yourself some break in order to not get into deep on the loss. That isn't considered a strategy tbh because you're not actually gambling to win during your time off. Strategy or not, it is important to really take breaks because we will have time to assess what we're doing, and in doing so we will be able to figure out what could be going wrong and what could go wrong if we continue chasing losses down the line.

I don't know how you call it, but I'm pretty sure that's still considered as strategy. A gambling strategy doesn't always have to involve a "win". In fact taking a time off might save you from further losses, so that is considered to be a win-win situation for you, while at the same time you're composing yourself again after the losses or even an overwhelming winnings.
Managing your gambling finances is considered as strategy.

Taking a break is always a good gambling strategy, gambling is not something that should be done consistently, as for certain, there always would be times when bad luck will hit the gambler, and if such gambler keeps gambling at such time, he or she will just end up wasting money that would have been used for some thing more important.

I take breaks, and i believe that it is same fore every responsible gamblers out there, it is only chronic gambling addicts who don't take breaks, and that is why most of them live a very miserable life.

It turns out that you manage your money even for gambling, that's a great thing, friend. A strategy like this is very profitable in my opinion and maybe it will apply to you OP to reduce losses driven by a sense of ambition for your defeats in gambling every week. But this kind of thing definitely comes back to self-control, if you are not able to manage yourself well even though you already have a plan limiting your gambling when you rebel yourself it will be useless in my opinion, even so a plan like this is a good action to reduce losses every week.

Give yourself a break.
This is one measure or strategy I use in my gambling technique to curtail losses upon more losses. Immediately I realize I have made many streaks like about 5 to 7 streaks for the week and I haven't made any win at least out of these numbers of streaks the next action is to give it a break for another new week to come. Believing that it's not my week and there's no need trying more as I will only end up break my bank for nothing at the end.
I do this for a long time now and it works for me by saving me from incurring wasteful losses and also having/saving me some money  for the next week to come. Indirectly this strategy also help to moderate my gambling habit and uncontrollable addiction tendency, and it also provide me the chance of having money for any winning opportunity that might come up for the new as I gamble.

At this point what do you think about this gambling strategy I use? Although yours may not be with 5-7 streaks in a week you can also set a number of streaks convenient with you to use. Or is there anyone out there already using this strategy and how beneficial has it being to you?
You are doing yourself a good things because this will help you curtail your loses and an for the future events on how to position your bets on where you are going to make a good profit. Gambling is all about understand why you mad loses and adjusting to a way your loses will be minimal so you can keep having a huge profits.
When it comes to gambling then profits or winning is never been guaranteed and this should be the main thing that you do put up into your mind on which you cant really be so sure on what would be the results.
Also, gambling is for entertainment and there's no way that you could make it as a source of income.This is good way on hanging up yourself on enjoying on some sports or even into those casino games.
GIving yourself a break from hard days work wont really be that a bad idea.Its not necessary to spend up big just to satisfy yourself and this is where most people do really
commit out mistakes due into this kind of behavior.

You have to be clear about the time available to play, it's that simple, that must be planned before playing/betting.

So, if you decide to play 2 hours, well you should put that before any winning or losing streak, people tend to think that because you are in losses they should log out, downsizes are always there, at least in poker they work that way. A bankroll management or simply an adequate bet size should contain any type of losses.

In the case of winnings it works the same, keep playing until the time you have planned.

There is a lot of documentation on this subject, planning is something that is passed over.

Then a break is given priority for the following reasons or  that it is due to effects such as bad luck, good luck, fatigue, bad streaks, good streaks, etc.

I'm not sure what you're talking about is a strategy. basically, there is no one strategy that really works in gambling techniques.

IMO, what you're doing is an awareness. because you know, if you force it to continue gambling you will experience a lot of losses. believe me, there is no strategy or technique to know when it's time for us to get lucky. especially, if what you are playing is luck-based gambling.

To be honest I don't have any strategy, especially when I play a game based on luck. for example, playing slots. what I do is, enjoy every game session regardless of winning or losing. actually I am more dominant for betting on sports betting, but it is no exception for other types of games. however, if I'm on a bad day, and hit a losing streak. a good option is to end the gambling side, and come back another time.

I always go on break whenever, I see it as an habit that wants to control my thoughts. Also sometimes when I  visit and spend my weekends with relations,I know that am scared of letting them know am a gambler, for the numbers of days I will be with them,I wouldn't gamble.

It's more like superstitious that when take a moment to stop and continue the next week your luck will change. Maybe the point is to stop the losing streak and a week of break will save you from losing more. 
It is not a superstition at all, if you play and you lose, it is good to stop gamble at that time for awhile. Just as you later said, it will help you from losing more because when you can lose more is when you have lost and keeping on playing with frustration.

If you try gambling on blackjack for a while and have those losing steak, why not take a break to bet on sports for a moment and then back to blackjack after?  You got your break but you also got a chance to win somewhere else.
That is just you. Some people may like casino while some people may like just sport. Some people may like both. Even if you lose in one, better to stop at all at that time, no matter if it is casino or sport, it does not matter.

The key would be always be depending on the budget that you had allocated.If you do strictly follow up that rule then you wont really be putting yourself into some serious gambling problem and this is where most

people do miss out.Doesnt matter whether you do play on a specific time or not as long your budget would be no go beyond those limits and that what matter the most.Its really that true that sometimes
we do really need up to have some break or some leisure time but of course we know that in speaking with gambling where money is really involved then we do know or should know the limits.
Losing or winning streak, you should know on when to stop.

The trouble with this theory is reality - people who have a hardcore gambling problem will likely keep finding sources of money to spend and aren't even trying to justify their habit any more. The sensible people are more likely to give themselves a break after they get maybe 3 losses in a row. It's all relative and can even depend on what sort of odds you're gambling against or what sort of money you're spending on it. If you're throwing down ten cents and coming up with 10 choice parlay bets, then it's probably a lot less harm than throwing down $100 on 3 separate bets which are low risk but also fairly low return. I tend to stick with the low ball strategy which keeps things interesting for me - you don't win much but get to take some fun risks.

There's no my week, your week, or somebody else's. Your loss doesn't mean there's some supernatural power stopping you from winning and that power will forget about you when you decide to take a day off. This is a very superstitious way of thinking.

Taking a break is good for your mental health. It gives you time to think, look at things from a different angle. This doesn't mean another game after you come back won't be a loss.

I think there's no connection with winning and losing streaks and breaks you take in gambling. It's like you're trying to break the streak by stopping and coming back later.

Back in the days, when I used to gamble more regularly, I used to do almost the same thing but just in a different way. If I would have a lost streak of about 4 to 5, I would stop betting at that time or day. I would start afresh the next day or later same day and then continue playing until the same thing used to happen.

At first, I used to chase losses, though it used to work sometimes, but at times, it used to become the cause of losing all my money at a time. That is the when I started taking breaks after getting loss streaks which used to save me from getting totally liquidated. Though gambling is purely based on luck but such practices can reduce the chances of losing everything you have at one time and give you extra chances.
We all used to be like that, chasing losses with the mindset of having it back so we tend to bet and more bets and even risking our own savings and pulling out some investment for the sake of us to gamble again. I lose everything and that's the time I learn things in hard way and I didn't stop gambling but I give myself a break and new strategy for myself and disciplined myself as well.

This technique helps to avoid consistent loss, it aids  good management of your money, this break time gives you an opportunity to think and rethink on the strategy that you will use to win when ever you resume, note an addict won't see this technique as a good one because they believe in consistency and continuity, a gambler believe that he needs to always gamble everyday in other to win, anyday they fail to gamble they feel that an avenue to win has been lost so this ideology is not vissible for a chronic and committed gambler.

You appear to be describing the technique of taking breaks when gambling, which can be a useful strategy for managing money and avoiding consistent losses. A gambler can reassess their strategies by taking a break, potentially avoiding impulsive or emotional decisions that can lead to losses.its important to recognize that gambling can be a risky activity, and individuals should approach it with caution and awareness of their own behaviors and tendencies. Seeking support from a therapist or addiction specialist can be a helpful step for individuals who are struggling with gambling-related issues.

Stick with what works for you OP, I don't gamble every time to make some money by force, I just use some small amount like 10$ to play some games out of fun and if I lose it all its good, I won't be coming back until another day that I have another 10$ to throw at the game again.

If you are already a professional gambler then you are automatically addicted to gambling, there is no way to take a break, taking a break is meant for those who gamble for the fun of it.
Well that's your perspective and i do have the same way thinking about taking a break meaning you are not really serious about what you stake , unlike when you continuously playing ... until you drown yourself in bankruptcy , that's what most people doing despite having huge winning previously.

Successfull gamble is not for everyone , it fails most of the time so yeah give it a break.

This one is a good strategy to minimize the losses and at the same time control oneself from chasing losses.  I also do this kind of thing, taking a break when spins are not in favor to my gambling session.  Instead of being frustrated, I just think that it is not my lucky day and will probably get lucky on the next session.  I often give myself months of avoiding gambling whenever I feel that I have been playing too much that the game I like don't yield me a profitable session.

Stick with what works for you OP, I don't gamble every time to make some money by force, I just use some small amount like 10$ to play some games out of fun and if I lose it all its good, I won't be coming back until another day that I have another 10$ to throw at the game again.

If you are already a professional gambler then you are automatically addicted to gambling, there is no way to take a break, taking a break is meant for those who gamble for the fun of it.

This technique helps to avoid consistent loss, it aids  good management of your money, this break time gives you an opportunity to think and rethink on the strategy that you will use to win when ever you resume, note an addict won't see this technique as a good one because they believe in consistency and continuity, a gambler believe that he needs to always gamble everyday in other to win, anyday they fail to gamble they feel that an avenue to win has been lost so this ideology is not vissible for a chronic and committed gambler.

For me, if I incur 3-day losing streak, I will stop for a while just to shake the jinx away. I believe that there are lucky weeks and there are not-so-lucky weeks. If I started to see that it is not a lucky week for me, then I would stop betting for that whole week and come back again the next week. It would reset my focus, take me away from bad thoughts about losing and give me time to replenish my funds.

I think your strategy is good. As long as it works for you, stick with it.



I believe luck plays a very big role in gambling. There are some weeks you keep winning until you get surprise. Other weeks might not be that good. But I think if you have a gambling plan, all these issues can be handled easily. It is always important to have a weekly gambling plan and ensure you stick to it. Sometimes you might be tempted to go beyond your weekly limit because you want to recover your loss or you might want to reduce your bets because you are scared of losing. Regardless of the condition following your gambling plans reduce the tendencies of gambling addiction or over-gambling.

They said different strokes for different folks. It works for you and I see the merits inherent in it. If it is not my lucky day, it is not. After the first 3 games, I can tell already, hence, I log out and focus my attention, money and time elsewhere. It doesn't matter if I had set aside a budget for it. I may try again at some other time or the next day or two days after it depends on how I am feeling.

each person has their own instincts when it comes to their games. so yeah, i can understand what you're saying here. we can feel when do we need to stop from our games, and when to get back again. after all it is gambling. there's no concrete rules where and when to play to get your luck. and if you can think of this strategy to lessen your losses, then, you can say to yourself that you are still in control of your gambling habits.

Give yourself a break.
I think a professional gambler should always know when to take a break, you don't have to be gambling always even when  you are losing money and you are claiming you are a professional, if you don't know when to stop then you are not a professional gambler but a addicted gambler. If you don't know when to stop gambling that's when addiction is always stepping in, you can't be winning always, whenever you are losing and you have wasted your budget already, just stop and wait for another day before you can continue gambling again.

It's more like superstitious that when take a moment to stop and continue the next week your luck will change. Maybe the point is to stop the losing streak and a week of break will save you from losing more.  

If you try gambling on blackjack for a while and have those losing steak, why not take a break to bet on sports for a moment and then back to blackjack after?  You got your break but you also got a chance to win somewhere else.

At this point what do you think about this gambling strategy I use? Although yours may not be with 5-7 streaks in a week you can also set a number of streaks convenient with you to use. Or is there anyone out there already using this strategy and how beneficial has it being to you?
What I do is that I have money that I set weekly for it, if I lose more than it, I stop gambling that week, no matter what. If I win and lose and the money has not finished, I can continue to gamble if I still see it interesting that week. I only go for gambling budget and just not more than 5% of my week income.

If I was at your side I will be careful in not to spend/lose the weekly gambling funds at the start of the week and keep on waiting for the next week to resume gambling. I agree that we should give a break to gambling but it is very difficult for me or anyone who gambles regularly to give it a break for a whole week.

From my personal experience, I will get a break from gambling on a particular day if I start to lose unusually and come back later on the next day to try my luck. If we are able to avoid revenge gambling, we are good to go in my opinion.

The strategy is good, as long as it's working for you. It's similar to setting a fixed budget for the week, so once you spend it entirely, you give a break till the next week, when a new budget will be disponible for you.
By respecting these limits you can maintain a healthy gambling activity week after week without major negative consequences over your financial life.

For me, I am making allocation each week since I am not playing regularly maybe just on weekends. So when I hit the max amount that I can play, I will stop whether I am winning or losing still I will stop. It is hard to stop when you are on a streak but then losing too much is harder, I don't have so much money to play that's why it is easy for me to stop when needed. I also try to list my game if I am on a losestreak and how much did I lose so I can have a track.

this is tantamount to self-restraint and self-control when quitting after a few defeats. but things like this are not that easy if we don't really have the desire to control ourselves for the sake of our savings.
I was once devastated by addiction and it was all caused by not being able to control myself and my emotions when I lost, I always chased the defeat.
so I've had that bad experience and now I have a strategy by planning a budget for gambling and limiting any losses.

for example I plan a budget of $100 and when I lose $20 I have to take a break for a few hours and start again the next day. this strategy for me is very good for self-control to keep the money in your bank

Taking a break is always a wise move, it lets us cold down and chill while we get ready to play full focus the next time. And if we don't take that kind of break we could end up losing all which would end in a forced break mixed with terrible feelings.

When we don't have luck, we don't need to push with bigger bets, we only need to understand that's not our day and let it go. Gamble with the brain and not with the heart.

That's a good strategy because I have been doing it myself for the past couple of years and it has been working out great.
Even if I win or lose I tend to keep my streak limited to 3-4 streaks per week.
This helps me to control my losses, saves me from over gambling, saves my time and also keeps me away from gambling addiction.

That seems like a good strategy to give yourself a beak when facing losing streaks. Having a fixed gambling strategy makes a lot of sense, I am using it myself. This helps to not think about every bet we place and keep a better focus on how much money we have already spent and how many bets we need to recover our losses. The losing streak of 5-7 rounds depends a bit on the type of game we play. If we mostly bet on Red or Black in roulette then this seems like a good strategy. Only thing we need to consider that if we follow a martingale strategy is that our losses accumulated quite a lot after 7 losses and we would only need one win to recover everything.

Gamblers cant take breaks, that is why they are called gamblers. Roll Eyes

Addiction is such a thing where passion and obsession come into a dangerous combination and this leads to insomniac tendencies where a person continues to repeat the same mistake over and over hoping for a different outcome on the next attempt. This is the reason why gamblers get addicted over time and are spending way more than what they should have.

Giving a break and stopping gambling altogether is the real winning strategy against a casino but it seems like a surrender to many gamblers and hence their brain refuses to accept that. That is why this industry thrives.

It is quite sensible to use such a strategy, but mostly to prevent the negative psychological effects of losing streaks, which can lead you to bet angry, trying to chase your losses, tired or desperate. Better to give yourself a break, especially when things don't go well, to prevent greater evils.

What I do is that I have money that I set weekly for it, if I lose more than it, I stop gambling that week, no matter what.

I do the same. Although I am quite rational in these matters, and I think it is not the most common thing among gamblers.

I like this your strategy as it will make you very discipline and chasing your lost will hardly come into your thought. I have a monthly budget which every week has an amount I must use for gambling. The moment I exceed that budget,I just stop playing till the next week. If it happens that is have a big win,I will also stop gambling and withdraw my wins. This enables me to control my gambling habit. Chasing your loss and not setting a budget aside when gamble will lead you to more lost. Everybody has their own strategy that works for them on taking a break in gambling.

It is very essential to have some breaks, whether you're on a winning streak for this week or on a losing streak then you have to take any break in the middle of it.
Forget about the emotion that you're having during those times because they will just come back when you feel the urge and excitement about it. Nevertheless, when I feel that I have to take a rest, I do take a rest and I don't mind if my situation isn't good and I am on a losing streak. I don't really think of it at all because these days what's important is all about taking care of our mental health whether you're a gambler or not.

Some of us think that the actions you take are an effective way to avoid gambling that is not in a supportive condition. Honestly, this method will be better done by anyone, be it a beginner or even a veteran gambler. Recognizing and being able to control bad moments in gambling is rare nowadays. People who have full ambition and pursue victory will hardly rest. Therefore rest activities can be carried out by making a schedule when to bet and when to stop. As with the allocation of betting funds per week, whether you win or lose, you only need to wait for the next week to play.

Sports betting such as betting on football, basketball, boxing and others, have a better chance for you to win, than slots, live casinos and others, blow after hit you get very little chance of winning except: you get really lucky every shot you take in the slot.

For me 7 strokes in/week on other bets, maybe in football betting, at least 3-5 strokes you can win, 2 other strokes you lose, maybe betting strategies elsewhere / sports can make better money, I think that's my experience in gambling.

Sometimes, I have to realize that I have to avoid certain types of games, they are not on my side, speaking of breaks, sports betting you can take a full break after you place the bet, it's different from other games, where you have to play without stopping.

Yes. It's good to take a break in any activity, including gambling, to help manage emotions and make more rational decisions. However, I do not view my gambling activities as burdensome. Rather, they serve as a welcome respite from my usual work, which can often be quite stressful.

I think gambling can be a fun and enjoyable activity when approached in a responsible manner. It's crucial to set limits for yourself when it comes to gambling, both in terms of time and money. This means knowing when to stop and not chasing losses. But, for some people, gambling can be a way to socialize, relax, and take a break from the demands of everyday life.

This is not a strategy in my opinion because you are not doing it as advantage to gambling but rather just a safety measure to think for a better strategy.

I’m always taking a break whenever I lose my bankroll no matter how big or small it is because I feel not motivated at all to continue once I loss my deposit bank roll. I developed this kind of behavior after losing a significant amount of money in the past that gives me a trauma whenever I’m losing.

People keep playing because they know the luck is still with them, so they continuously play. We understand how a lot of experience we had in just playing gambling. Some of them win a lot and get too much fun, so they keep playing, and few keep those winnings as rewards to themselves and vice versa. A loser wants to engage more to bring back those losses and take a break because they already had a breakdown due to excessive playing. Always consider your self and your money. Not all people are rich. Spend your money wisely.

As well know that LUCK is not all the time with us which is why winning straight from gambling is really impossible.
I could remember that I have 3 straight wins, I thought it continues and I put everything I win into the last 3 games. Then I just realized that it was not the real thing to happen in gambling, we never know exactly what will happen next - and I lose them all.

That is why I keep a limit when gambling. If I bet $10 in my first bet, the next couple of bets is still the same, $10 per bet. I did this just not to lose all my money in an instant which is my mistake before.

to be honest, this strategy of the person having to stop playing for a while when he loses a lot only reveals that the person does not have good bankroll management and a clear objective, for example:

if a person has a budget of 10$ each week to play this means that when that person defined 10$ to play each week he already counted that the 10$ is a lost money, if he wins and keeps 20$ then he will have more money to play the following week, but you should never put 10$ in a week, lose everything and at the same time put 20$, and the person needs to be a person who respects the rules he created, only then will that person be able to lie have fun in the world of gambling

I see people in my country who place sports bets and multibet, they have already put it in their heads that they should only bet 2$ and they choose many games so that when they win they have 100$ and even when they win they continue to bet with 1$, that is It's called having a good banking deed, and that's what we all have to have

the success or failure of this strategy depends on how well you manage your rest. If you continue to lose when you start gambling, you need to think of another strategy. But at least you have to manage your finances for gambling, so that too much money doesn't go into gambling.
Take a little rest and pause your gambling activities, this will give your brain space not to depend too much on gambling.
Do you gamble for profit or just for entertainment?
If to get profit, you have done the right way, reduce losses by stopping for a moment, giving room for your common sense.

It's actually a good strategy and most of the gamblers I knew here in the forum do it also.
Whenever there is a losing streak happening they try to rest the next day, giving an opportunity for the brain to work better after the rest and analyze the game better. Most of them are in sports gambling.
It's different for me though, I still do my daily bets but I will minimize them when I feel like it's not doing pretty well.
Like 3/7 or 2/5 in consecutive days, that's already an unlucky day for me. The next day I may feel like only doing 2 bets or 3 and see where it will go.
Strategies like yours require discipline so I wish you can keep that kind of plan. Good luck.

It's really the best decision for yourself to refrain from gambling even more the moment you experience consecutive losses. It's not wise for someone to continue betting after experiencing loss after loss because you'll just incur more and more failed bets in the long run due to having little mental headspace and tolerance to win. Your emotions will fluctuate and you'll eventually feel tilted which could affect your decision-making and strategy in betting.

The best time to continue gambling is after calming yourself. The moment you have full control over your emotions and actions wherein your mind isn't clouded to make judgments anymore is your cue to try gambling again. Of course, still take not of your budget allotment in gambling to not go overboard and regret later.

Just don't treat it as a job or something really. It's supposed to be something enjoyable, regardless if you're there to try your luck or just to, well, spend money. You can chase for wins, but you don't need to stress yourself for it, just imagine how people casually play other types of games. Winning is fun, much more so if money is involved, but it shouldn't be everything.

If you were really having a hard time with it, I guess you can try gambling with friends that have better control than you. Just the act of having someone to play with makes everything much more enjoyable, so really, even if you lose big I reckon it'd be fine with you since it's going to be all fun and games.

This is gambling you never know when you're streak will end, you may have 5 losing streaks but you just never know when the losing streak will end and when the winning streak will begin, but if you decide to stop because you think you need then its good for you, but it's not the rule that any gambler can or will follow, especially those who don't care about losing and winning and just want to have fun, it's their choice to play not because of the streak.

At this point what do you think about this gambling strategy I use? Although yours may not be with 5-7 streaks in a week you can also set a number of streaks convenient with you to use. Or is there anyone out there already using this strategy and how beneficial has it being to you?

Giving yourself a break from time to time is the strategy that every responsible gambler is following. So, you are doing it right, in my opinion. Not only you are saving money this way, but you also make your future experiences more enjoyable. And to those not following this strategy I want to say: Don't make a boring work out of fun, which gambling should be in the first place.

Give yourself a break.
This is one measure or strategy I use in my gambling technique to curtail losses upon more losses. Immediately I realize I have made many streaks like about 5 to 7 streaks for the week and I haven't made any win at least out of these numbers of streaks the next action is to give it a break for another new week to come. Believing that it's not my week and there's no need trying more as I will only end up break my bank for nothing at the end.

No strategy can work against the house edge. You are either lucky or you are not. Instead of getting obsessed with finding the right strategy (which don't exist) you should focus on risk management. Because the more you lose you spend even more to make up for your losses and then you lose even more. Here is your mistake.

When you lose too much, you should just walk away and come back when you are ready.

Giving yourself a break is almost the same as maintaining a discipline on your habit. The problem with gambling stems from its addicting and rewarding nature. For example, regardless of the result in a game, the person would almost always bet again (win/loss). This can definitely be deceiving especially if a person gambles frequently and he thinks that he won in a given game, but in reality, his total losses are overwhelmingly bigger than his winnings.

I agree- give yourself a break and give time to reflect on your actions. If you struggle with this kind of discipline, then take measures (e.g. bring only a handful amount of cash, etc.) to at least force yourself to stop.

This is only effective on those games: card games, sports betting, and other games except slots, because in slots you have the possibility of getting those lose streaks and even more. Though this should be the basic rule in gambling, we need to be able to control ourselves when it comes to losing. Though it doesn't mean that we are all using this, most of us, when we get into a losing streak, we should take a break, relax, and have a beer to ease the emotions, but there are still others chasing their losses, which, as you said, will break break their bank accounts.

I think that it is quite a conscious and useful thing not to get involved in the race and not to look for luck, especially after several failures. I decided for myself a long time ago that I need to go on vacation after 2-3 wins or after 3-4 losses when it comes to real bets.

You need to tailor a bit more this strategy and those 5 sessions to put in one and call it a day whatever the result is,lost money or won,I have been doing this for some couple of years now and it helps achieve the same thing you are calling to give it a break,the only difference is that I instead of doing several small sessions,I use only one big one and play longer for that time,usually midweek,Wednesday or Thursday as I have this belief in those days fewer people gamble and chances are higher for me to win in slot machines  Grin.

Currently, I'm on a losing streak, and a few days from now, I might take some break as well to prevent further losses.

Having this kind of strategy really helped me to be disciplined, to be aware of the losses that I get. Having self-control and knowing when to stop really is a big factor when it comes to gambling. Giving yourself a break especially when you are a losing streak is needed so that you don't regret in the end because you might lose your money on the process.

I've been this using strategy for months already, and it really helped me a lot. On the other hand, I'm not only using this kind of strategy when I'm losing, but also when I'm winning. Giving myself a break also on winning would secure my winnings, and I'd do that all day than putting all of my winnings again and gamble it knowing that there is a chance that I might lose my money. It's my way of securing my winnings.

Give yourself a break both when you are losing and at the same time winning.

For me, if I incur 3-day losing streak, I will stop for a while just to shake the jinx away. I believe that there are lucky weeks and there are not-so-lucky weeks. If I started to see that it is not a lucky week for me, then I would stop betting for that whole week and come back again the next week. It would reset my focus, take me away from bad thoughts about losing and give me time to replenish my funds.

I think your strategy is good. As long as it works for you, stick with it.

This strategy might only works for predictable games like sport betting and not on luck based games because the results for luck based games doesn't guarantee you positive returns the next time you play. I think wait really matters if for everyone to know their limit and don't excess it. One way to know or determine your limit is by having money kept aside for gambling.

When that money get exhausted then you know it's time to stop betting. Profits made shouldn't be kept in that account or you'll exhaust all when gambling. The only money that should be there should be your gambling capital and it can be top on as you keep winning your bets.

There's no such strategy in gambling especially if you're playing slots where the result is completely random based on provably fair system. You may able to beat the house today by using so called strategy, but there's no guarantee you will win tomorrow, next 2 days etc using the same strategy. You need to know your limit and don't chase your losses, it will make you losses more and regret what you've done.

What I do is that I have money that I set weekly for it, if I lose more than it, I stop gambling that week, no matter what. If I win and lose and the money has not finished, I can continue to gamble if I still see it interesting that week. I only go for gambling budget and just not more than 5% of my week income.
