Topic: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? - page 27. (Read 4225 times)

In fact, losing in gambling is a very common thing and happens even more often than winning. Even professional gamblers will not escape these losses and will not always win 100% when gambling. However, what made it different was his attitude and decision after experiencing this defeat. There must be an evaluation and also good emotional management after losing, so that we don't fall or become so disappointed that we become stressed. Stress is what sometimes drives us to do stupid and unnecessary things. And the next step is to evaluate our gambling strategy or activities, including evaluating financial management so that we don't fall into gambling addiction. This may be difficult, but it must be done so that we remain under control.

Sometimes, stopping for a moment is very necessary. This may be difficult, especially if we are used to gambling. However, it would be better if we stopped first and thought about the evaluation and organized our emotions and thoughts so that we became much calmer.

That's weird for us normal people, not for gambling addicts, they think of it differently.

Normally, you don't, but when you are addicted to something, you do continue doing that.

What they get in return for doing that is satisfaction, that is at least what they (addicts) say. They don't even care about losing their home or anything they own because they are unable to see or understand what's happening before it's too late.

Again, that's weird to normal people but it's something normal for addicted people, and they wouldn't let someone else manage their budget because they know someone else wouldn't let them gamble as much as they will if they are managing the budget themselves.

You have a point, we know that most gamblers always lose, but you don't need to quit gambling if you know what's happening to you, you know how to control your emotions when it comes to gambling, you are in the right frame of mind. But if your situation is you are drowning in debt, this is having a bad effect on you and your family, I think you should slowly stay away from gambling.
It's really difficult to stop gambling especially if you are already addicted to it, but it is not impossible especially if you really want to.

Actually, this could even be a dangerous mindset when you think about it.


When people really think that it all has to do with preparation and that a lack or deficiency in preparation led to losses, this could become worse and worse over time, making people spend more time on "preparation" when there isn't really anything to prepare for.

I think that people refraining from running the numbers is what the issue of having a wrong idea for success probabilities begins with. They should just use a calculator and see how likely it is to be at a loss if someone gambles for a longer period of time with a lot of sessions. I guess the best gamble one can go for is the weekly lottery with moderate amounts. That way someone can have the dream of winning big without losing control over anything in the short run.

Honestly I can't think of it, I think this is the wrong mindset. The fact is that no matter how prepared you are or how well you prepare everything when you want to gamble such as strategy and the amount of budget you will bring, in my opinion it has no full effect and will not even affect at all, how can they believe in something that is only based on luck? I'm also a gambler and I certainly don't believe that you or anyone else can make money in gambling, and that's the fact, everything is not as easy as you think, especially in finding victory. If you continue to try it with the wrong mindset like that then I'm sure it's not victory that you will get but defeat that will continue to dominate, everyone already knows it.

Well I agree with you, the fact is that the real winnings are only for them or the casino itself, no matter how long they will remain for and the winnings given to gamblers may only be a small portion of the profits or income of the casino, but it makes the gamblers become very crazy in gambling. Basically, any self-control or limits they set up are just to minimize losses and obviously have nothing to do with the chances of winning. There is no guarantee at all to win unless you are really lucky.

Are you suggesting that all it needs is proper preparation and then gambling is a winning activity? Someone here said it before that the only players in the industry winning long term are those running the casinos. What would someone even prepare for? All those rules like not playing excessively and so on and so forth doesn't guarantee long term winnings. The only reasonable approach to gambling would be to ensure that it remains an activity for pleasure and only that.

if you gamble with full consideration and good strategy then believe me, you don't need to stop gambling even though you might lose several times, so every time you gamble, you have to prepare enough capital and also control yourself not to play exceeds the capital you have prepared. apart from that, if you are tired or lost in your gambling today then you better take a break and develop a better strategy, never think of gambling as your side income but make gambling your entertainment.

Do not do anything rash straight after losing money in gambling, because at that point in time you are very agitated and in a heightened mood. You do not want your gambling decisions to be made by your pure emotions. Some of those emotions feel like you might win your money back if you gamble very hard or go all in. Those feelings are lying to you.

I always make a plan on my daily spending limit before I go into a casino and I always stick by my own rules. Anything else is way too risky and will end up in you losing all your money before you even realize it.

But, I'm wondering if when can they get money to gamble if they don't have any sources of income? Oh well, maybe they beg from someone else. They are lucky if they can win out of it but it was still risky and not a good thing to do. They need to get a job which earns them a stable income to provide their needs and their family if they have already.

Gambling isn't only about hoping to win but it can also provide you an entertainment. This is why many gamblers still continue even though they mostly lose. Nothing is wrong in hoping and getting that jackpot. As long as the casino where we play is legit and as long as we keep on trying, there is always a chance to snatch that jackpot one day.

Recognition of loss needs to be the first lesson, especially after the gambler has experienced it many times and decided to stop gambling. However, many gamblers still cannot admit their loss and want to recover their losses because they think they can continue gambling. Instead of resting their minds from gambling, they finally decide to continue gambling, but in the end, they experience even more losses. This is what makes many gamblers end up falling into loss and losing a lot of money.

Losing money when gambling has become a common thing because many gamblers have experienced it, so if there are novice gamblers who also experience it, we can tell them that we also experience it and even experience it often. But what makes the difference is how we behave after experiencing loss because if we can stop gambling after that, we can save our remaining money. But if we don't stop, we might lose more money. And that's the point of limiting gambling so that we can anticipate big losses. And if we have good self-control, we can prevent that big loss.

I agree with you in this, like I have said before without one expecting to win from gambling the game will not be as fun as they claim they are having from it, it’s the bitter truth most gamblers don’t want to admit, if not for the money why then wager with money, why not just make your prediction and watch the game play if it will be in your favour or not, and again why did people get hurt when they lose their game that’s when it don’t play as they expected it to play.

Their is no doubt that their are people who are wealthy and they look for a way to spend money which they do on gambling and they call that spending fun but still they expect to win their game and make more money that they can also use for fun, let’s take drake the celebrity gambler who wager thousands of dollars on gambling and those amount don’t mean nothing to him compare to his net worth, but again when ever games don’t go as he plan he feels bad even as he accept it as one of those things. So no one will tell me the game they play are entirely just for fun alone, I can’t buy that lie.

Yes and if at the beginning you underestimate addiction then I'm sure one day when you are already at that point then surely you will regret it by saying "if only I had listened to that saying", well regret will always come at the end of the story, therefore you must really think about it from now on before finally getting into the addiction zone. Honestly, I'm not talking nonsense, I was once in the addiction cycle and it really made me uncomfortable with all the pressure I always felt especially in financial matters. And now I'm grateful because I've started to reduce the level of addiction with everything I've considered, one of which is by reducing the budget and also adding other activities that can keep me busy. That's right, it's not uncommon these days for cases of the effects of gambling to occur, and they usually end tragically, leaving behind huge debts and broken families. Chances? Well I'm sure you're misinterpreting what the odds mean, remember it's just a chance based on luck nothing more than that, and also the casino has set that the chances of winning are smaller than losing, so it's not strange if you experience a lot of losses, so use your logic to think.

Yes there is nothing else but you apply really firm self-control there, as we know the temptation in gambling is very difficult to miss and almost most of them will be easily hooked because of that. The question is who doesn't want money? everyone does, but on the other hand you also have to see if you are looking for income in the right place? no friend, this is gambling that is just to fill time and seek entertainment, so it is very wrong if you come to look for income or winnings. There is no other way to prevent and avoid it except as we discussed this is to apply firm self-control and come only for fun, it is better than you end up regretting the addiction. Especially for beginners, they should really be able to consider their mindset correctly, that's all.

You're right, buddy, but in my opinion, the reason we engage in gambling is to profit or gain something from the money staked on it. Although the games or sporting events we bet on are amusement-only, I want us to realise that betting on games and staking money in hopes of winning is also a way to make money. I am aware that losing when playing games is a common occurrence, and anyone who partakes in the activity should be prepared to experience either a loss or a win in each game they wager on because video games are always about losing or winning, and since we cannot expect both teams to win, there will almost always be a loser and a winner.

What I'm trying to get across to you is that anyone who bet on gambling and claimed that it was simply for pleasure is lying, since he wouldn't have staked a sizable sum of money on games that he was confident his side would win. Today, I've seen a lot of people win big at gambling and make millions of dollars. I think this is why some people gamble because as humans, we always look for opportunities to make money quickly. Based on my observations, gambling is all about making money. You must also experience both loss and gain in everything you do in life.

This means that you already understand how to gamble, because beginners who don't understand how to gamble usually spend more time gambling until they become bankrupt or poor, but if you look at the way you gamble, it seems like you are not a beginner because you already understand the pattern and being able to control yourself from gambling, you already know when to gamble and know when to stop gambling means you are truly an intelligent gambler.

If you look at it, this method should be able to be done by everyone, after all, why chase after defeat if you lose when it can still be played tomorrow and there's no harm in taking a short break to calm your mind to be calmer because playing relying on emotions will not end well in the end, the point is is knowing when to play and when to stop gambling is good.

That's because they already saw that they can win but they cannot maintain it. I don't think anyone can if we keep on playing casino games.
They will give multi-wins sometimes and that should be the time when we withdraw but the problem is greed will take over and we want to play more with the thought of striking the lucky multi-win again. It's a rare thing to happen. Someone who hits an x1000 will hit another after a bet of below 500-1000. Most of the time casino games will just give a gambler enough to keep the hopes up so he will continue playing.
If a consecutive multi-win happens to one gambler then he must be pretty lucky. I have not seen it yet so it will be difficult to believe.

When I lose, I stop. I don't like forcing things and the need to chase the losses. The same thing I do if I win, I stop for a while, take a rest, refresh the browser, and will be back if I have the urge to play again.

The weirdest thing about not being able to stop is the fact that people are fine with losing their money even more. I mean think about it, you do "something", you lose money, would you continue to keep doing that thing normally? I mean not a lot of people would do that if it is not giving you a return, not many things in life makes you constantly lose money the more you do it, you may pay once for some stuff, but not constantly do more, and have a chance to lose as much as your home if you do not stop.

But when it's gambling, people end up keep doing it more and more and have hard time stopping, that feels weird. I personally would say just have someone else watch over your gambling budget if you can't do it yourself.

It is proven that most people who cannot control themselves when gambling will experience bad things and make them feel sad and regretful, but if the person can control themselves when gambling then they will appear relaxed and calm, because they can minimize the impact. gambling.

I agree with you, only self-awareness will make you stop gambling, even though motivation and encouragement from other people will not necessarily make you immediately aware, and it is true that what you say will be realized by a gambler after they experience a bad incident. and he can't accept it, so he considers that what he has done so far has been a big mistake, because it has harmed himself and other people around us.

In most of cases addiction was also making people to be involved in various criminal activities with the same goal it is to get money to play gambling. This is a very high risk when someone being contaminated by the addiction but this depends on the people itself. The gambling site is not making mistake here caused by the addiction totally depends on the how the personality can properly control their emotions.
that being said that if gambling is not that bad caused by many have proven if their were able playing gambling with their sense without being dominated by their addiction.

People can play gambling anytime as long as they were not being addicted and that's good. Addiction is something that must be avoided. We have seen this before but i think that people these days knew how to leave from their addictions.
It's not something really needs to worry about. It's not that any personalty would be easy to be infected with addiction.


It's so easy to aware whether we are being addicted or not. Gambling is entertainment activities to give us a way to solace ourselves. There's nothing wrong with it as long as we can always handle it when play it.
Many people become crazy caused by they were being addicted.

Yes, becoming a gambling addict can result in the loss of everything we have in gambling, loss of money, loss of sanity, loss of family relationships, and even loss of life due to suicide. We need to be aware of the big risks if we become a gambling addict. We also see a lot of news in the media that a gambling addict has a bad ending (bankruptcy or possibly suicide).

Seeing the huge risk of gambling addiction, maybe we need to correct ourselves and realize whether we are gambling addicts or not. We must improve our view of gambling that gambling is an activity that produces pleasure, not to make money

Many gamblers say you stop gambling because they may come across the people who loss their entire life in the gambling.But they forgot to remember the gambler who shined because of the gambling,I had seen many people who got good winning from the gambling.But those people are more passionate as compared to other people.The passion is more important one to the people to shine in the life.Some people may loss the game because of the random bet most of the time.If the gambling addicted person ready to get away from the gambling addiction,then it will be easy for them to get away from the gambling addiction.The self thinking only help the gambler to get away from the gambling addiction.No other things will help them to get away from the gambling addiction of the gamblers.
