Topic: I am currently on 1 week losing streak in sports betting.. (Read 119 times)

It's defiantly not fun to lose money in any form whether it's trading or gambling. The reason why some gamblers lose everything while betting is because they fail to keep them self disciplined. If you are losing and you keep putting more and more money then you are only doing to house which is accumulating your money. It's a must thing that you should have a fixed budget while you are gambling and once that budget is over you must quit batting. Gambling is a fire that's hard to control, keep this thing in mind while you go for gambling.     

Idk seo, this sounds a little bit like the gambler's phallacy. Most users recommended the OP to take a break and if I was him that's what I would do. But chance is capricious, so chances are that we read from him in the next few days that he continued betting and his luck improved.

What is clear is that if he lost so many bets in a row, he can't be having a good time. And this is always a bad sign, IMO.

It is very hard to continue when you’re facing losses upon losses. It does happen and no one is always winning at betting but the fun of it is that you’re winning more than you’re losing. In times like this, make sure you stick to your risk management principles, don’t allow the losses to make you feel sad and want to get back at the market, the repercussions may be unbearable if you do so. Once you’ve already exhausted the money set aside to gamble and you don’t get any win, don’t bet more and allow that moment to pass until you’re ready to sacrifice some part of your money when you have another that can be gambled with. The moment during losing are not easy but it’ll pass also.

I am currently on 1 week losing streak in sports betting.. Im not gonna enjoy gambling but Im gonna take a break for a while if I were you because losing streak for one week is not a good sign bud. Couple of weeks ago I do lost futures trade and then I take a break for 2 weeks without making any money I try to enter only lose that I get.

So for now take a rest if you still have a budget on it you can play it for another time not now.

What matter to most in these cases is to recognize what is going on and take the time to stop and think what your next step should be, in my opinion.
There have been occasions I start to roll dices for a session of gambling and I immediately start to get loss after loss and I get completely discouraged and I feel tempted to chase those losses, then common sense kicks in and I just log out my account and take a time off gambling completely, until recovering from those losses.

It may be what you need to do, though, just to step back take a breath before continuing with your sport betting sessions. It could be something which needs to be changed about your strategy or research, so you do not lose as much money as you have.

Of course I have experienced that and it seems like all bettors have experienced that because winning streaks or vice versa are quite common for all bettors. If you experience consecutive losses, especially those that have made you more emotional, taking a break is an option, and when you choose to stop, it doesn't mean that you are withdrawing from gambling, just for a moment to rearrange how to start your bets, so that your mind can be fresher.

I had this situation not too long ago either. Then, due to the constant losses, there was simply no money left allocated for betting. Accordingly, I took a forced break (well, like a break, I made very small bets sometimes in December). By the way, a break helps to calm the gloomy mood. I plan to return to more active betting in the near future.

In my case, events developed in such a way that I was very lucky in October, but then the streak of bad luck began in November, so, as I already mentioned, I took an almost complete break in December. Therefore, I can advise you to do the same. Take a break to break the bad luck streak.

You are not alone, because I have also experienced it lately, although I still have some wins but the losses I have received lately are greater than the wins. With a situation like this, then usually I will choose to take a break or not bet for a few weeks, and will bet again when I have found a situation that allows me to win. Indeed, although taking  a break certainly does not guarantee that we will get better results when we return later. But at least, we have to make improvements for ourselves first so that we can bet with  a better mood later.

That's bad, are you bet on parlay? if you gamble on high risk, it's not surprising you often lose.

You can take a short break if you want because when the emotion controlling us, we can't really think clean and use our logic, but we might want to gamble more just because we want to recover the past losses.

It doesn't always work, just like the results Premier League in this week, most people didn't predict the match will end in draw.

Trust me, that situation is not to encourage you to continue betting more. My advice rest your mind from gambling for a while as the best solution. You need a refresher outside of gambling, don't let the bets you make yourself become a burden on your mind that doesn't produce profit. If you continue to linger in such a situation, the risk of greater chaos will continue to be experienced by you.

This always works, but in my POV i will temporarily stop, then come back to continue later on, it always works actually as long when you come back you have knowledge enough on what team or player(s) to bet on.

Are losing streaks not common in sports betting? there is rarely any gambler who records consecutive wins, or more wins than losses. There is no strategy in sports betting really assures of a win because the outcome of the games mostly are luck dependent. Most sports bettors experience a series of looses before maybe one win to compensate them.
Somehow the many loses never completely discourages the gambler because they remain positive that one day they will win big from gambling.

As long as emotions are already involved there's nothing to be enjoyed in it, it's probably best you quit for a while. I'm sure every gambler has been through that phase where they incur losses. For the past 3 days it's been nothing but losses for me as well, I placed a very strategic bet yesterday of just two odds that was going quite well but Dortmund ended up losing and that was totally out unexpected of them to lose that game because they were the better side. Instead beating myself up and having regretful feelings about why I gambled I just simply took a break. Thinking about your losses too much would make you think of trying to get back what you lost by gambling more so just uninstall the app or freeze your account if you can.

maybe it is one of the signs for you to take a break.

taking a break is also a good thing because by taking a break you can refresh your mind and reduce stress and excessive pressure on your mind. it can also prevent more severe financial losses in your gambling. during this break you can also take time to think about whether there is something wrong with the way you bet and how it can be fixed so that you can reduce your losses in the next bet.

It's obvious your initial intention was to be on a winning streak. Being positive is good, but the result doesn't always go according to how we plan it to be. Winning and losing are always the expectations when we gamble even if most times we tend to be very optimistic about the game we bet on. What I understand here is that you eventually lost on your bet due to the wrong decisions you made. At times we get greedy and let our intentions allows us to deviate from the original plan we made from the very beginning.

I totally feel you! It's normal to go through ups and downs in sports betting. I've been there too, and it can be tough to shake off emotions. For me, taking a step back, reassessing my strategy, and setting realistic expectations helps. Also, reminding myself that it's okay to lose and that it's just part of the game. What works for you? Do you have any tips for staying level-headed and enjoying the ride?

Losing is never been enjoyable and pretty sure that everyone had been able to experience this stuff on having that losing streaks even if they had already been that dealing up with sports betting. We do know that when it comes into this matter on which at the time that you will be experiencing these streaks then you would be thinking that there's something wrong into your betting specially on sports but of course we do know that whether you do deal up with betting or casino games, there's no assurance that you can make money or sure win in 100%. This is why it will really be that just that right that you do really know that on the time or moment that you will be having these loses then you should really be that moving on.

Dont make yourself that being too impulsive because on the time that you will be having that kind of reaction then you will definitely be having that kind of approach. Outcomes will really be basing up into the moment that you are really that making up some bad decisions. This is where you do really needed up to consider on how you should be dealing up with these loses and as long you are really that making use of the amount on which you can afford to lose then there would really be no issues. On the moment or time that you will be having that kind of impulsiveness then this is where issues will be starting up to show up.

1 week straight losing and no win? Nahh, I haven’t experienced it before. The highest losing streak I can recall is probably like four days straight and a fated that I took some time off gambling and didn’t make any deposit for some time till I was sure I was in a good mood before going back.

If I had gone back that time to continue my gambling activities I’m sure some weird emotions would have kicked in and before I know what’s happening I’ll start to think about how to get back all that I have lost during that past days and that my friend is what we call “chasing after losses”.

I’ll advice that you just take a day or week off gambling and just focus on irl stuff and clear your head from the losing streak you experienced and then go back and try to make the lowest deposit that the casino or bookie and go for the best game you think will come out well and make sure you don’t chase profit at that point in time because all you want to do at that point is to make sure you win that game so your losing streak will end.  Afterwards you can continue your game normally.

Yesterday I made a lot of bets and lost more than 90% of my bets, but I was not sad because I used money that I can afford to lose and also because when I made a bet I put it in my head that I would accept any result, so when I make a bet I accept that I will have a greater chance of losing. I make bets for fun and I think that everyone should make bets for fun and not create high expectations about sports betting.
