You just have to be mentally prepared when you got a bad loss. For me I just quit and take a break and walk. Sometimes you really have to face your worst fear and that you have to look at what went wrong with your gambling that night.
For sure you will have a good sleep after that. But you have to remind yourself that it ain't feel very good. So at least maybe next time you can control your addiction. And won't put yourself in that difficult position again and suffer another bad loss. Maybe you will have to quit early.

Close the website and simply forget about your bets. Go outside , do some sports , play some video games and you should be fine. If you cannot recover by doing things that you love , you most likely have a gambling problem and that should be worries for you because as soon as you place a bet you should be aware that you can lose or win , there is no in between. So yea , just move your mind in some other places and stick with them until you forget about betting for a while ...
That hurts. But I practice life with no regrets. What's done is done. When you lose something you cannot afford to lose, you have nothing but to move on. The first reaction would be to stay away and take a breather. Grab a beer or maybe socialize. And when emotions are getting better, you have to think deeply and make some realizations. Learn something from it to become a better person as a whole. It's not the end of the world.
I always reflect and forgive my self.
Having a bad loss is a sign of being indiscipline because you'll never have a bad loss if you are only gambling within your limits. That's you being out of control in gambling and that would say you have a problem with your behavior which should be corrected the soonest possible time.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?
You know what is my favorite thing to do, when I am in bad loss then I drink an alcohol and eating some of my favorites foods. Because what is in my mind is that it's better to eat than to lose again and that's the reason if when I loss a good amount of money then the rest of my money I spend it in eating my favorites food and also shopping as well. Actually in my history as A small gambler I didn't loss big amount. because I gamble what I afford to lose.
It's never easy to move on from a loss, most especially if it was a big amount on your end. It will be hard to accept and you'll have the feeling of in-denial at first and eventually regret. We all make mistakes, we feel emotions depending on the situation we are in, and that's all totally normal. But first, to be able to fully accept a bad loss, you need to acknowledge first that you lost. You have to accept it and from there, start assessing yourself from where you went wrong and how did it happen so that in the future, you won't make the same mistakes again.
We have this ever famous saying that you should only bet what you can only afford to lose. If you followed that, it will be much easier for you to accept the loss because the money you spent is just a spare. But if you didn't it'll be a hard to swallow. Just learn from it and control the situation the next time around. Don't ever think of chasing winning because that's how you'll end up losing so much more than you'll ever notice. Grieve, breakdown, accept that it already happen, remember the lesson it taught you, then move forward and use that lesson to do much better the next time around you'll make a bet.

When you are in a loss situation, feeling sad and disappointed is a common thing to feel, especially if you have just lost money that should be allocated to other interests. We are in complete control to reduce the feeling of disappointment and can find ways to cheer ourselves up. One way to entertain myself that I usually do is play games, playing games can reduce the disappointment due to the loss that I have just felt. I've also watched movies, although it sounds a bit classic, Watching old movies or movies that are on the wishlist can be a way to entertain myself and treat feelings of disappointment due to a bad loss that just happened to me.
What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?
Can we really think of or consider a favorite thing to get over a bad loss? If we are at a bad loss, we are not in good mood. I don't think there's a thing that can eliminate that bad loss not unless slowly accept what happened.
I can't even relax after a bad loss that's why doing an outing won't save me from that.
The best thing to do is accept what happened even how hard it is and move on.
That is a bad that could ever happened to a man after you bet and lost your games, normally as a gambler you have to bear the lost and risk so at some points, after lost you need to distance the gambling site or local shop for awhile otherwise you stand another chances of losing more money while trying to recover from the previous lost.

The feeling experienced when you have made a bad loss can be described as either a sad feeling, a depressing feeling or an angry feeling. The best mindset to have at such a point is to give yourself hope that tomorrow will be better. Whenever I feel that kind of way, I watch my favorite Tv show, be with my favorite person, eat a good meal (very effective) or just go to bed. I do anything or indulge in any activity that can properly get my mind away from thinking about my sad situation.What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?
Accept the result. There's no point in forgetting it but rather it's good to take that as experience to become a better gambler. How can we even enjoy doing relax if we are at a big loss? Maybe we will be happy for quite some time but after that when we got home, the sad feeling will be back again. For me, just accept the loss calmly as it will just pass away.
Next time, do our best not to experience that bad loss again.
Well it happens to the best of us and overtime you just forget but the best way is just fall a sleep and not think about it. You probobly get angry or dissapointed once that happens but that just fades away. After sometime if you get some money or wins it just becomes funny or you just feel stupid. Thats what happens to me usually.
It all comes together with an attitude like this, you don't need to be upset and bothered too much. Losing and winning is part of the game and money will just come and go but the important part is you learn and never commit the same mistake twice. Some other people will just take a light of a cigarette and after that, they are good to go again. Having an attitude of "let's call it a day" or "aight, that's it for today, seems like my luck is running out" you can easily go to places without being bothered if getting a losses or not. Just don't get it to you like being greedy so you could control yourself.

To get over a bad loss have turned to be a simple thing after the experiencing series of big losses. At the beginning it was hard to overcome, used to have sleepless nights thinking of the loss. At times cried, and slowly things changed as I understood better about gambling. At some point my way of overcoming the loss happened with the friends gathering and spending time.
When you're accustomed to it, you can get over with it easily but not everyone can do that. So, most of the time when someone is unable to get over with bad losses. You just have to revert your attention on it like put your attention into gaming or other activities.By doing that, you're eventually going to forget that you've been dealing with such bad losses and damage.
That's how you psychologically beat that losses that will remain if you choose think of at most times. It may not be easy but you'll have to practice it if you keep on gambling because losses will remain to be there.

Sometimes, it is very difficult to get over a bad loss, but what I personally do is get my mind off it, this is because the more you think about it, the more you are likely to fall into depression, so the best thing to do is try and forget it, get busy with something that is capable of consuming your entire mind, that is not giving your mind the chance to think or remember of the loss but to be totally occupied with work.I think doing this will help keep ones mind away from a bad loss, though it's no guarantee to heal the mind quickly off the memory of the loss, but it sure will help to slowly forget, rather to sit, doing nothing and fall into depression.
Leave gambling altogether instead of trying to recoup, you eventually forget your losses, how sooner you forget depend on amount of loss 
Play only with spare money that you can lose. An example of such money is if you invest and the money multiply like crazy like Bitcoin was doing in 2012 and you find out that your 100 bucks is now worth 100k, losing 1k on gambling would be nothing.
I never had to get over a bad loss because I only deposit the money that I can lose. I never deposit more while gambling. If I'm out of money I'm done for the day with no regrets.
Anyways, what would you feel if you gambled with that 1k and have won consecutively like have made it 10x however you continue gambling and lose it all? How would feel about it?

Losses are inevitable in gambling, when I losse I always have two ways to put myself together and they two ways are:
1. I will remember when I won and how happy I was and use it to console myself.
2. I will play music and every sad feelings in me will just disappear with immediate effect.
Number 1 is that win must be big enough to consider yourself happy but what if you are only a small gambler? Remembering your small wins won't cheer you up but the first sentence that you said could be helpful. We need to think that in gambling there are two possible scenarios and that is winning and losing.1. I will remember when I won and how happy I was and use it to console myself.
2. I will play music and every sad feelings in me will just disappear with immediate effect.
We are a loser for now but next time we will be on the winning side. Number 2 is I think will depend on what kind of music you are trying to play but this must be upbeat music to lift up your mood. Listening to nostalgic and slow music can make your sad feelings more intense. You may be a music lover because you pick music but for some, it can be games or movies.
