What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

Moving on after a bad loss in gambling is kinda difficult if you were hitting win streaks before that. When I'm going through that moment, I just turn of the computer then go to sleep to forget it. If it keeps bothering my mind I try to watch anime or go to youtube to find some relaxing videos. Sometimes I also play computer games if my friends are available during that time.  The most important thing about a bad loss is we don't chase losses from it. There are gamblers that can't control themselves from depositing more since they can't accept what happened.

Just take a break to refresh myself and do whatever I like which will help me to feel good again but I would say if you are gambling according to your budget and you loose that amount you don't have bad feelings that could tear you apart although you feel sad but on a normal level.This is my opinion and preferred way of gambling but taking break is very necessary if you have lost more to refresh up yourself.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

Bad losses means a big loss. This rarely happens to me because I don't use large amounts when gambling, I gamble with very small amounts must of the time . This happened to me 3-4 times when this happens I enjoy movies and listen loud music through head phone it helps me to forget the sadness and calm my mind.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?
I will be very sorry and feel stupid for giving in to my desire to continue gambling and losing so much money.
But I will try to calm myself first after getting that loss while sitting down and drinking a glass of water.
After calming down, I'll go out for a breath of fresh air and maybe I'll go to sleep trying to forget what I've got.
It was a horrific event for me and I wish I had never experienced it because I didn't know what I would do next.

The answer, of course, is to try to get out of gambling. Don't even keep chasing defeats that will exacerbate your losses. You may find it difficult to stop gambling until it is all gone, but this type of gambling will only continue to affect you and you will continue to be played. Then what needs to be done when you get a bad loss is before you bet make sure to limit the balance below 10%. Armed with 10% capital, you must be prepared to lose and stop for a moment.

It's hard to forget defeats in large numbers that can't be controlled, of course there are regrets that make us stress thinking about them, I personally prefer to stop for a moment and enjoy coffee and cigarettes while talking with friends that can bring the mood back to life.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

I think the trick isn’t figuring out how to cope with a bad loss, but to not get yourself into a position where you would consider a loss a “bad loss.” Similarly to the saying that you shouldn’t invest what you can’t afford to lose, you shouldn’t gamble amounts that will cause you pain if you lose it. With investing you can at least usually recoup something when you sell, but gambling is a total loss. You need to be careful and remember that it’s about entertainment, not making money.

That's just what I was thinking. It's best not to get to that point.

The only thing I would add to what you say is that once you have lost something that you consider a bad loss, it is very important to recognise the loss and stop, and not to chase your losses, which can make the situation even worse.

I'd take the L. There's no use lingering over it and trying to make the money back the instant you lost it. You'll just pile up your emotions and pile up your debts on the way too. I'd rather move on and come back next week, eager to play without the loss on my mind. This will also enhance and test your self-control the more you lose big time. When you conquered your impulse, you can gamble pretty much any time you like without having to think much of the consequences.

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.

A bad loss? Do you mean losing with big money?
If I experience a big loss. First of all, I need to calm my mind, I need some entertainment. I don't want to stay at home, I prefer to hang out or take a vacation. I often spend at least 2-3 days calming my mind. If I feel it is enough to calm my mind, I will think about how to avoid the same mistake. And more stringent in limiting funds for gambling. However, until now, I never loss with big money because I always use small money.

I normally just throw my remote or smash my TV with my gold club lol.  Just kidding just kidding. That being said, I did use to do crazy things like that in my "earlier" days of gambling, which of course went hand in hand with being younger. 

I simply don't bet enough money these days to really let it get to me.  If I do, I normally get steamed for a couple hours then let it go.  Don't bet so much it drives you nuts!

Moving on. There's no other way to get over it when I'm having a bad loss. Acceptance is the key and just think of it that it shouldn't happen again and look at what part I've became wrong with decision making. Is it from the time that I should have stopped already when I've got a few losses or wins? Or is it from the bets that I've made and bet for the wrong team in sports betting and the same goes for other games that I use to play.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?
First, I have to ask myself why I experience a bad loss where in fact, I should only gamble within my limit.
Second, If I already know what went wrong I have to address it right away and solve the possible problem that may occur especially if it's already over budget.
Third, I have to give punishment for myself and limit my gambling activities until I solve that problem, by this I can be more responsible next time and I can avoid such bad loss.

As an experienced gambler, I don't do anything but just take a break, simple as that. Since that heavy feeling is already there, no choice but to move on. I'm not used to doing other things if I experienced a bad loss such as going outside for a drink, social interaction, playing games, etc. as that was all useless for me.

Accept the loss, move on and prepare for another round of betting. But it's been a while since I experienced a bad loss, especially in sports betting. Don't be used to experiencing that painful experience and worked your way to be a good bettor as you progress. Take that as your lesson.

What I've done so far is to watch some funny movies and take some air outside doing some light exercises or just running. It doesn't relieve the "pain" of the bad loss but it's good enough to change my mood hehe. A bad loss usually lingers for a couple of days so I just keep repeating the process.

Hehe.....losses ain't something that anyone would get pleased with... No matter how prepared the person is -- yes, people get prepared on some losses as they'll sometimes indulge in something they know quite well to be a scam but, will just wanna give a try.

If I get a bad lose, I know it's something that could push you into taking your own life or seeing yourself as 'worthless' -- I'll pick up and listen to good music and, hangout with friends then I'll try as much as possible to keep myself busy -- sometimes, busy over nothing.
Some Peeps let loose their emotions....in that it surpasses them and if there's no one around to change their mindsets, they might even run into a homicide.

Stay away a bit from gambling and do recreational things like basketball, biking or long rides. I take away my mind from bad loss. If I dwell on it, it will just depress me and that will not be good for my mental health. There are times that I have a great win so a bad loss here and there is just normal. I just focus on the good things and move on from the bad ones but never forgetting any lesson form it, if there is any.

Taking a pause would help. You must make time to kill time without thinking about or atleast lessen the thoughts that you've lost an amount. Some people would continue playing to get their money back but as cliche as it may sound, things could got worse by doing so. Try doing other things that you usually do other than gambling or playing, would be unfortunate if you have no other hobby or leisure.

But prevention is better than cure. Prioritize putting in mind that in gambling, there's no easy way to win. Always regard the possibilities of losing to avoid suffering when expectations are not met. Reflect as well if you could afford continuing this activity because you are free not to do so.
