Among all the gamblers, there are not so many people with the strongest self-control. I think that almost every one of you, the players, has been in such a situation when two feelings are fighting inside you - to stop the game and to continue the game. And when you stopped playing, the thought is spinning in your head that you acted stupidly and missed your luck and winnings. And if you continued to play and lost, then the thought is also negative - why did I act so stupidly by continuing to play. As a result, in the process of making your decisions, it turns out that two options lead to negative and only one leads to positive - this is the option when you decided to continue the game and luck was on your side and you won. But no matter how you twist it, 2/3 of your decisions are negative and only 1/3 are positive.
This is the essence of gambling.
I share your view but this is what leads to more unreasonable gambling, it has to be shunned. If gamblers do not know what they want and how they will get it done, what they want will manipulate them into misbehaviour and they will lose all their money and even their sanity because it will surely infest their psychology. I've had enough ugly experiences in trading which is similar to gamble, but the good part is that it trained me to be well-behaved to the point that gambling preparation and handling are workovers for me.
What you need to do to fix this is have your gambling system and plan before you start gambling. You can start by knowing what works for you, having a budget, finding the right management for the budget and making sure you have your gambling session and keep your psychology intact (discipline). You don't just enter the gambling house or open the platform, you do that only when you are ready financially and mentally.
This is of course excellent advice. However, it only works on cautious, prudent and reasonable players. And among the entire multi-million group of gamblers on a global scale, there are too few such players in my opinion. Basically, all these preparatory actions are simply ignored by players and as a result, the game begins to acquire a chaotic and unpredictable nature. The player makes decisions spontaneously and often incorrectly, which naturally takes place. As a result, for obvious reasons, the player loses more than the one who was able to start playing according to the algorithm of his actions in the order as you described it. This is of course the correct order. But it is impossible to re-educate players to be more careful and prudent. Unfortunately.
