The only time I used my money to try a game that relies on luck was on a plinko game. When I started playing, I was fine, 30 minutes playing and I had some wins and losses, the problem started when I increased the multiplier, man I clicked the button and I see that little ball going down, down and going in the direction that would allow me to win a lot, my heart felt like it was going to come out of my body from beating so much, and when I saw that I got it right, I celebrated because my balance increased 3x, I didn't stop playing, and every time I clicked the button and that little ball started going down, I got My heart beats a lot, I played for 3 hours

with victories and defeats, but it was a fact that I was winning because my balance was increasing, so I decided to increase the multiplier, my emotional situation got worse, because with an increase in multiplier if I lost, I saw my balance reducing more, that's why each every time I clicked on that button and I saw that bologna coming down, my heart beat faster, I became more anxious and when I lost I became more irritated, more than 4 hours of playing and there were 4 hours of psychological torture, that's because I kept clicking on that little ball and Seeing my heart beat a lot waiting for the ball to land on some number that would make me win was a terrible situation.

after more than 4 hours playing I lost everything, I got up, took a deep breath and thought: I lost my 5$ which had already become more than 13X and I was very angry and wondering why the hell I didn't stop when I was already in profit, to be honest I don't even know why I didn't stop when I was in profit, it was as if I was enjoying that situation of seeing the little ball going down and my heart beating fast. At that moment I decided that I would not play gambling games that depend on luck again and I didn't play anymore. I only place sports bets and I have a rule: I do not add emotions to any of my bets, even when I win or lose and even when I increase the value of the bet. so I can say that the solution to stop the adrenaline rush I got from gambling that depends on luck, was to stop playing any gambling game that depends on luck.

 There's this pump to your heart when you are about to stake a game, especially when you're confident of winning. The best way to manage it for me is to not allow it overwhelm or control me, else I might bet with more than I've bargained to use. Sometimes when I feel that rush, I channel it into something else other than betting. I'm the kind of person that goes with my gut so if I feel this game will not be the one for me, I sit it out and let the rush calm down.
Most gamblers do not have control of their emotions and as such, riding on the high of adrenaline especially after loosing hugely, they make stupid decisions. Some even go as far as betting their houses after the monies in their banks must have been exhausted.

Interesting, "How Do You Manage Your Adrenaline Rush In Gambling?".
In certain cases, I prefer to let adrenaline trigger the sensations that occur in my body. for example, when I bet on football, and when the match is about to start, the adrenaline rushes within me and surrounds my feelings. the feeling that comes, like tension, excitement, and all kinds, is the part that I like the most. I enjoy it, let it be an encouragement to the times I enjoy a football match. especially, big matches, or my favorite clubs.

Talking about adrenaline, we can turn it into pleasure which becomes a challenge or a strong attraction for us to enjoy, including gambling. However, not many people really feel that adrenaline can make us enjoy something we are experiencing or doing.
Well, now we return to the topic of your question.
This is interesting, "Andrenaline" when we feel an uncomfortable or stressful situation, the information is sent to a part of the brain called the amygdala, this area of ​​the brain plays a role in processing emotions. The problem is, it is no longer adrenaline that is responsible for our desire to chase losses or want to make a deposit again. However, it is more the emotion of anger that starts to take over for us to chase losses.
IMO, actually there are many theories that we can use to manage or control it. However, it all depends on each individual or each gambler. There are various ways we can do it, but the most effective one for me is thinking sanely. without it, whatever we do, a strong urge to chase back losses will arise.

I think having little to no expectations when gambling is a good way to prevent chasing your losses after losing all funds set aside for such purposes.

Despite feeling the rush of adrenaline run through your body, urging and motivating you to again, fund your account so as to continue playing, it would be beneficial to your financial health if you could ignore the urge to continue. The adrenaline rush would fuel you with motivation and renewed confidence to play and try to recoup your losses.

But If you’re playing with little to no expectations and having lost out, you won’t be feel bad enough to start to conceive thoughts about playing some more. Expectation in most cases and not just gambling, brings about disappointments

I think we all felt adrenaline rush at some point and it's typically a body response due to excitement or anxiety. I don't know if it's only me, but I rarely experience adrenaline when I am losing, I often experience it when I am constantly winning because the excitement is building up. But if ever I experience adrenaline rush due to constant lose, I always make sure to distract myself to avoid chasing all my loss. I actually have a stress ball beside me and it helps me to calm my nerves. Sometimes I distract myself through playing online games or having cold showers and these helps me a lot.

I am not the everyday gambler, but talking about Adrenaline rush, it feels like something that every gambler who plays for the fun of the game experiences as the first compensation for either gain or the loss of money. It is the first compensation, and the other one being that the gambler wins.
A gambler who losses will experience Adrenaline rush that will trigger anxiety, a gambler who wins can experience adrenaline rush that can trigger the excitement to play more. For any of the kinds of adrenaline, there is a need to familiarize yourself with controlling it.

That explains why people like to gamble. Some really like the adrenaline rush it gives because they are living for the thrill. Some prefer the spontaneity and the excitement it bring, hence, they do gamble and bet without calculations and just automatically take the risks. However, not everyone can afford that. Some are playing with a limited budget and just wants to profit even a little on the side. It's really a case to case basis. But regardless, still, the best way to gamble is to do it responsibly and moderately. Because seeking for fun can cost you a lot if not controlled.

The feeling to over gamble always reoccurs especially when you have the drive to chase losses. I control my adrenaline rush by looking at my gambling plan. My financial plan will make me control this drive because channeling funds budgeted for another reason to gambling will lead to lack and want. The plan will also put me in check and help me control the urge to bet more. I also channel my attention to other areas that interest me to kill the drive to go beyond my gambling budget. Playing computer games is a good alternative to gambling for me.

If that happened to me, I would immediately stop gambling and close my browser and if necessary, I would turn off the computer or laptop. And I will rest by drinking coffee or water to reduce the adrenaline. So far, that's what I've always done if my adrenaline starts to rise but thankfully, that doesn't happen too often to me.

After resting, I will sleep to forget what I experienced in gambling. And usually, when I wake up, I completely forget about my defeat last night and it doesn't affect me at all. Maybe it was a bit difficult to do in the past, but I still tried because I didn't want gambling to influence me and tempt me to continue gambling.

Most times when I experience some losing streaks and my bankroll gets finished and the thought of "if I should just deposit more and place a bet I would be able to win back my money" I just switch games from using my real money to playing demo games.

Sometimes it's difficult to resist because you might regretting why you didn't deposit and win back your money but if you're disciplined it will just be a walk over for you, but if you're not then distracting yourself with other activities could work as well, as it will be you remove the thought that you just lost your entire bankroll in a single session.

If I understand correctly, by adrenaline rush, OP meant desire to place more bets, desire to do it as fast as possible and to play back what was already lost. I think the only possible way to manage such behaviour is to make deposit limits and force teach yourself to make a deposit only once a day, week or month. For instance, when I am in a mood for gambling, I deposit 50 bucks. That is my limit. This is the amount that I have already subconsciously lost. Once deposited, I freak out with it whatever I want. I think I am used to allowing myself to lose 50 bucks a week without hurting family budget. Sometimes being busy helps. If I had more free time at work or home, maybe I would gamble more. So my answer to OP is - set limits and be busy IRL.

Im pretty much sure and i could really say that im really that kind of person who is really having that kind of discipline on which i could really say that i could stop on point if ever i would really be telling myself on doing so.
Adrenaline rush could come out whether you are in a winning situation or losing one on which it would really be creating that kind of emotion which causes for you to make further actions which isnt even that right anymore but since that kind of boost up will really be that pushing you on doing it. This is why outcomes or results on certain actions would really be able to experience since you have done thing.

On my part, if ever i do lost a certain amount and im still really that eager on playing because hoping that the next roll might be a win then i do simply close entire browser (online) or walk away (physical/offline)
which it would really be causing for me to completely cut-off that session on that particular time which i do really avoid on spending up more most of  the time or simply i did make the right call.

I usually secured all my funds away from easily deposit on the casino before I start gambling. I isolate my gamblings funds earlier then deposit to the casino so that I can’t chase loss by depositing more since my other funds is inaccessible at the moment.

When I lose all my bankroll and I’m still on adrenaline, I usually go outside to catch fresh air and clear my mind. This mehod makes me calm after lossing badly on gambling. Redirecting my attention away from gambling by appreciating my environment beauty helps me a lot to relax when I’m on adrenaline rush.

Yes that's exactly right, people like very complicated in gambling, there are those who prepare many strategies, suggest a way to win and others, but do you believe that it will be useful / yes I think that statement will not enter if our minds are healthy, how can you think that there will always be a victory from something that is only based on luck? of course not and it's ridiculous.

Well you're right, it's actually very simple as long as they (gamblers) know in advance the big risks that are there and with that I think maybe they won't overdo it. It will not always be in accordance with your expectations, if you put too much hope there then let's see how some cases occur where they lose all their valuable assets, it hurts, but yes it is true that defeat is indirectly like making their adrenaline rush and they continue to pursue that defeat because of the emotion of not accepting the previous defeat. So the point is please be smarter, this is not the main job that can always produce, as you said above you can go there with the purpose of fun - just fun is better my friend.

Usually when I experience a losing streak, I will enjoy the adrenaline by betting All in all the remaining budget money even though the chance of winning is not very big, but I am still confident and enjoy the game, as long as I still limit my gambling budget, I think it is a good thing It's normal as long as you don't use other money and take your savings to make another deposit to recover your losses. If the All In bet loses then I will just sleep to get rid of the adrenaline feeling.

I am not a person who is happy with chasing money and recovering the losses I experienced because that is part of the risk that I have to accept and understand, I have a certain budget limit for gambling every weekend, so don't make it difficult for yourself to calm those adrenaline feelings by resting or sleeping I think that's enough and forget about the defeat.  

Aside from stopping myself before reaching my bankroll limit which I always set (depending on my budget) prior I start gambling; I play sports or simply do other things to avoid losing more money. Anything to keep me busy. Well, if I don't, I will surely see myself gambling again, and probably cause me to more losing streaks.

You're out of topic Is there anywhere in my thread that I posted that adrenaline helps us to win in gambling, can you please check all the other replies to get the idea of the topic and don't just rely on the title of the topic or at least read my thread, it's not a very long thread and  I also included the best replies.

As simple as expect nothing in gambling.

If someone is really looking to make money through gambling, this is wrong because that's the reason why you feel adrenaline rush. You're under pressure and want to see it wouldn't goes wrong, so you're always hope you will win in the end.

Just use money you can afford to lose and gamble for fun, you will be safe.

What do you want to emphasize on the topic that you have already covered? What you want to convey is that our adrenalin helps us win at gambling. It's like the way you've done this topic before. Our adrenalin, in my opinion, provides a reason for us as gamblers to be more excited to play gambling. But this does not give us a chance to win at gambling. Our adrenaline has nothing to do with winning at a casino here in crypto gambling. Adrenaline can motivate us to have a positive or negative response. This is how I see how we manage our adrenaline.

Thank you for all the replies so far I'm reading all the replies and extracting the best response and including them in the main post maybe we'll limit the reply to 40 replies I'm sure there are imaginative ways to manage your adrenaline rush in gambling that could result losing a lot of money based on members' experience I've already some and will include more.
