Whenever you do make yourself on some involvement in things specially it do involves money with that kind of activity then it would really be that prone into that emotion thing since we dont really love nor like to lose

money which means whenever we do lost then that would definitely affect out mainly our emotions and when that happens then decisions will really be greatly affected and the worst you would really be losing your

self awareness on different situations or conditions that you are into thats why its really that important to have that good control and self awareness on actions or things
you been dealing with so that you wont really be ending up on those mistakes.
Emotions are always present when you do something like this, you'll not know until when you're able to experience the hardship of being a winner, and because you're too greedy or not content, you continue and thought of it as something easy to recover but it won't happen. Being aware of what may happen in the future is one capability of gamblers that understands that not all of their lucky and they know what to do and what to feel in terms that they're uncertain.

Maybe problem gamblers will feel it less in the long run. if you're a problem gambler it means you've lost significant amounts of money many times before, I think you'll eventually learn to deal with that, although of course you'll continue to feel it every time you lose money. Often there are immediate intentions to stop once and for all, but if you feel like gambling again the next few days, that promise is gone like snow in the sun. That is how it goes usually.

I do not think problem gamblers will learn to deal with the frustration of losing.  There are problem gamblers who commit suicide because they cannot take the pressure of losing everything.  Other gets depressed while other commit crimes such as robbery and theft just to have the fund for their gambling activity.  Unless these people are treated, they will never learn to deal with their addiction and losses.

Gambling is never for everyone just like business is not for everyone. These two involves people that has the mind to take risk and accommodate the outcome from it. People who don't rely just on emotion but reality to strike the balance of taking risk proportional to what they can carry. An experience gambler is different from those inexperienced in the field of gambling because they gamble reasonable while the latter does it emotionally.
It's not for the frail heart and mind. Those who can absorb the losses and just let it go for the next gambling day will likely come back better.
But those who are weak and will try to chase what was lost will have a bad stressful day when they wake up.
I can say it because I have been in that moment. The thoughts of how much was gone in a short span of time will linger for a long time.
It's difficult to fight the "chasing losses" emotion but once you get through it or maybe thru experience, a better gambler will come out with knowledge on what to do on his next bet.

it feels bad but we can't beat the house and get our money back. It was wrong chasing our losses knowing that no matter what we do, we still lose more rather than make winnings. As to be here in gambling, LUCK is the only hope we made in order to make money and we need to be strong and accept our losses but never blame gambling for this is our choice, not the owners.
Stop chasing those losses, otherwise, we just fail and even lose more.

Certainly, emotions are an integral part of human nature, but even after a big loss, you do not need to give in to despair. You need to carefully weigh your strength and decide whether to continue gambling or stop it. Losing is completely normal, because the percentage of losses significantly exceeds the percentage of wins. Unfortunately, not all people can cope with the feeling of loss and disappointment.

Those who can't take a negative outcome may most probably not going to enter gambling as they knew they have no appetite on the risk involved with gambling.
An experienced gambler like how you describe it might feel emotional too especially during a massive loss. We all do, no matter how reasonable it is. That's the reason why we have heard stories about gamblers who are in a deep debt taking their lives as they feel hopeless and depressed.

If gambling is for entertainment, then it will always be only for the sake of emotions, and if gambling is considered as a means of earning money, then many hours of analysis of events already begin, viewing all possible available information about events, that is, a more fundamental approach. There will be emotions in this case too, but there will also be a greater expectation of winning, compared to a player who bet a couple of bucks to scream over a beer in a pub with friends, and losing will mean almost nothing.

I somehow agree to what you've said that in most poor societies, people there think short term and quick in terms of having money. They tend to look at gambling as part of the solution for their poverty but the actual of it is that they're stuck with that mindset and it's hard to break that norm for them. It is true that the mental health on this matter is going to be vital for those people that have been thinking as if gambling is the only way for them to get out of poverty.
It was because they saw how gambling could help their friends to earn money in the short term so they were interested in trying it. Their circumstances are forcing them to try harder at making money; many are already trying to make money from many things. And after they try and lose, they will feel more depressed because they have lost money that they could have used to buy daily necessities. Maybe every gambler's feelings will be very different, depending on how much money they spend. The more money that is used, there may be a sadder feeling than other gamblers.
It was a fact that they can earn quickly but that's the only thing that they can see. But the other side of it, they're missing the whole point and many will always say that it's not a way of earning for most because only a few can stand to the test of time and will survive if they use it as a main source of income. The whole point of feeling bad after losing will depend on the gambler because if that frustration is staying and there's no way to mend that feeling, it's going to stay there and it could be worst if the gambler will try to recover it but the outcome will be having more losses.
They only see how much money they can collect from the balance in their account without calculating how much money has been lost in gambling. They think that they made a big profit but there is a real possibility that they may still incur a loss if everything is calculated carefully. Playing gambling is indeed not a way to make money for people because they will only experience defeat and that must be realized for them so that they do not play gambling too often. They will only experience negative feelings such as depression, eventually resulting in their inability to work well on that day or the following days. In addition, there will be a feeling of wanting to recover from a loss another day, which will trigger them to return to gambling.

Now must of the people addicted in gambling . Especially young boys are more addicted to gambling. And now with the introduction of online casinos, everyone can play gambling from the comfort of their home . For this the influence of gambling is increasing day by day. When someone loses gambling and loses his money.  Then they try hard to recover that loss.  And they cannot quit their gambling addiction.  And keep losing more and more money.  Eventually they lost everything.
Not only yong boy I had already sawn many teenage children are talking about cricket match ,football league for gamble . And especially nowadays, various gambling websites are promoted very attractively by various YouTubers or Facebook ads and the children who follow them are attracted to them.  Then for gambling money they get involved in various types of criminal activities at a young age and for gamble fund they are taking money without telling their parents.  I have also heard many news reports of many m**der about taking money after gambling losses.  I think this is not a positive side but if teenage children are addicted to gambling like this it will bring suffering to the future generation.
Teenagers are attracted by the myth of making easy money quickly in gambling. Adults are also attracted by this, but remember yourself as a teenager and you will immediately understand what I mean. That is why they are easily involved in betting and quickly become addicted. Attempts to restrict teenagers from gambling at the legislative level seem futile to me, since any of them can play online casinos from a smartphone that everyone now has. And I agree that there is nothing good in this, both for teenagers and their loved ones, and for the whole society as a whole. I have no idea what to do about it, but if you hear more and more about gambling addiction of both adults and teenagers, then the problem is only growing and accumulating.
Gambling is a way to get rich in a short time.  So it attracts more people age of 20-40 years.  Because people of this age are more inclined towards money.  Then they get greedy and waste their hard-earned money by gamble. And they lose gambling and go into depression.  Which creates turmoil in their family.
Yes you are right the excuse is playing here many people can become modern but most of the people can't tolerate it most of the time they lose a lot of things and get involved in many bad things gambling is good but not everyone can see it

When money problems start to appear then I don't see how the gambler will feel less bad after losing money gambling, which, in the long run will always happen.

It's basically the same as any other addiction. It's a downwards spiral, every time it gets a bit worse.

When someone loses gambling and loses his money.  Then they try hard to recover that loss.  And they cannot quit their gambling addiction.  And keep losing more and more money.  Eventually they lost everything.

This is happening because of the advancement in technology . With the advancement of technology, gambling sites are coming to the market with new advantages day by day . Which is attracting the youth towards gambling . And gambling is slowly destroying the life of all gamblers.
Gambling sites are offering offers that are hard to resist but still gamblers should know that they are playing gambling and there is no guarantee and surely of a win in gambling. So if anyone is getting attracted to gambling without knowing the consequences of gambling, then i am afraid it is the gambler's fault.
A true gambler will not feel bad because he already knows that gambling is a mixture of wins and losses.
no one can guarantee winner for any casino games . But gamblers always think that by gambling they will win and get big money and become rich. This greed lures them to gambling again and again . But gambling never brings anything good. But suddenly some lucky person hits the big jackpot but this is rare
As far as I can tell, I have never seen anyone who gambled get anything done.  But the few I have seen are always drunk on loss.  And if gambling can be avoided then that is better.  I would say it is a bad addiction once someone gets into this addiction their life is completely over.  So I would say if we can stay away from them we will always be fine.  There are some people who think they will become big people by gambling but at the end of the day they lose all their money.  So we will stay away from all these gambling.

That's the sad truth for those types of gamblers that can't accept defeat, they really are likely to spend every resource that they have until they recover.
But, it's all just in their minds, and recovery from such a big loss is hard to achieve because as you've said gambling is unpredictable and those who try hard will keep losing, financially and emotionally.
True, this type of gambler is very selfish, they are not ready to accept defeat. In fact, gambling is like a double edged sword, winning and losing. Professional gamblers also experience defeat very often and such conditions have often been experienced by any gambler.
When you decide to gamble, be prepared to accept defeat. There is no need to blame anyone for the recent defeat, because defeat is a risk that gamblers must accept.
It really is.
Real gamblers that have been into this activity for so long understand the importance of how it feels like as they gamble. They should pay attention to themselves so that it won't be them that shall attack their own emotions and acceptance is one key for them to realize that they have to control it better than they do before.
Whenever you do make yourself on some involvement in things specially it do involves money with that kind of activity then it would really be that prone into that emotion thing since we dont really love nor like to lose

Here is a photographic difference between a normal brain and an addicted brain.


And what does it mean? Please, clarify for those who can't watch full video. From the what I see, some central parts of Joy's brain became "colder" . But the question is what this parts are responsible for.

But thx, when i'll see such tomographic picture, I ll know that this person is addicted  Grin

I am not a medical person but a good explanation can be found in this article[1].  That part is the reward center of the brain.[2]


There is thre different types of behaviour for thre categories of gamblers.
1. For gambler who gambles for entertainment, this type of gambler does not gamble with big money since he is more concerned with happiness more than money.

2. A good gambler but not an addict, this type of gambler feels so bad after lossing money and may feel depressed and this gambler might stop gambling after losing big money.

3. An addict, this type of gambler is used to winning and lossing to the extent that if he losses, he will see it as a sign that big winning is on the way.


I think this fall to type of gambler, as far as I know there are 7 type of gambler and it is explained here.[3]

That's the sad truth for those types of gamblers that can't accept defeat, they really are likely to spend every resource that they have until they recover.
But, it's all just in their minds, and recovery from such a big loss is hard to achieve because as you've said gambling is unpredictable and those who try hard will keep losing, financially and emotionally.
True, this type of gambler is very selfish, they are not ready to accept defeat. In fact, gambling is like a double edged sword, winning and losing. Professional gamblers also experience defeat very often and such conditions have often been experienced by any gambler.
When you decide to gamble, be prepared to accept defeat. There is no need to blame anyone for the recent defeat, because defeat is a risk that gamblers must accept.

They aren't selfish, they are too generous because they are giving away their money.  Not accepting defeat is not a good definition of selfish.  They maybe persistent.  But in gambling terms, they are addicted since they keep on chasing losses until they run out of resources.

Even at defeat, there are gamblers that won't accept defeat and what they want is to take time again and try to get as much losses as they can.
That's why it's not just all about the losses but also the pride that seems to be taken from them because sometimes, even you know that the game is hard to defeat, it's making you think through emotions that you can do it.
that's called so greedy. Gambling is actually can't be predicted and it was also depend on our luck. yeah that kind of gambler will always using all of available resource to make another bet until he will have nothing to be used for gamble. Controlling the emotion was the most difficult case.
The fact that if so many gamblers are not able controlling their emotions and this lead them to the big losses. I have my friend was always doing even more when he was suffering some lose caused by he was feeling curious if he was winning the bet.
I will never ever do that.

Certainly, emotions are an integral part of human nature, but even after a big loss, you do not need to give in to despair. You need to carefully weigh your strength and decide whether to continue gambling or stop it. Losing is completely normal because the percentage of losses significantly exceeds the percentage of wins. Unfortunately, not all people can cope with the feeling of loss and disappointment.

It's easy to say that lossess is normal or part of human nature but if you are in the stage you are a gambling addict you can feel different because if you win then the mood is happy and your mind is full of goodness but if you lose we can not control our self to not take gambling anymore. But once you are addicted enough you will make a way to get back all your losses. so instead of leaving or stop for a while in gambling you will greedy to gamble again and again until you win.
