Seriously? 1 week losing streak is worthy of a topic and you losing faith? You have to make sure you realize that you can lose and not put your whole net worth at risk man. Gamble small and stack them sats up or whatever currency you are using. Don't risk more then 10% of your bankroll and never chase losses. You're going to ride a roller coaster of good and bad week, but the goal is to end the year up in the ++++

I have been on long losing streaks so many times, it is normal, you can stop if you feel it will continue, our superstitions sometimes become reality when gambling, so when on a losing streak, you have this feeling that the next one would still be a loss, then you can take a short time off.

That being said, what is most important is that overall you are not gambling with more money than you can afford to lose, thus you can bear the losses without having any sort of financial issues.
Yes, in fact, while gambling, you should always understand the limits of your ability, and you should gamble with  that money, which does not cause any financial pressure or problems if you lose it. In fact, we should be careful before facing financial problems while playing this type of gambling, so that we do not have to regret it later. The most important thing is that gambling should never be seen as a source of income. Before you start gambling, you should remember that you will definitely lose the money, which you are starting to gamble with, and if you lose it, you will not have to face any problems. Calm your emotions, Never gamble with more money than you can afford in excitement. Because excitement, emotion, greed, always lead the gambler to big loss.

I've been into sports betting for quite a while, but times like these are pretty tough. Even though I've experienced this before, it still keeps coming back like feeling a bit emotional, losing focus, and sometimes gambling more than I should. Anyway, have you had the same experience? How do you convince yourself to move on and still enjoy gambling?
Take some time off, get a break and try to retrace your step. Gambling is fun, but not when make loss. To me, you are still a responsible gambler as you were able to tell when you are in losses and seek help on what to do. Some gamblers would not see this as a flaw but try to fight back and end up losing unfortunately. When I make loss I just stop at some point and try to play some other game.  Since it's sport betting, try to do some research on the game you want to play on your next round s you are sure you aren't betting on a wrong team

not is sports betting but I have a lot of experience of having long losing streak on casino games. what you have to realize is that losing is part of gambling, you need to fully accept this reality and in doing so it'll give the mindset that losing is common and having a losing streak is inevitable to happen. I am not saying that doing suddenly makes you not care aboout losing its just that it makes it easier to move since you ahve realized that losing is part of gambling.

Betting is not fun while losing. If you are gambling or betting but started to lose than you are expecting, it is better you stop gambling at that time and have time for other things that you enjoy.

What I prefer to do has been not to go more than my gambling budget. I disciplined myself with that and it is helping.

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.

Time to go big mate, remember the gambling rules, you can't always win and you can't always lose. So, the money shot should be close.

If we talk about sport betting, we must understand how are you betting, because if you are making 10 games parlays then it will be hard to win, you should try to bet on single events, and make tons of bets.

Is fun but if you analyze the parlays they usually lose by 1 or 2 games, so, if you would place those bets on single tickets, then you would end with profit, a small one, but profit.

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.

I didn't experience this since usually I bet on the sports I know or following every day result.

So best to plan your next bet and always look for reference,statistic and team reports before placing your bet since it might increase your chance to win.
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.

Betting is not fun while losing. If you are gambling or betting but started to lose than you are expecting, it is better you stop gambling at that time and have time for other things that you enjoy.
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.
