I have a friend who wins 15,000 pesos or $300 the first time keno games in an offline betting outlet, he is so happy and very ecstatic about his winnings, I congratulate him and ask him how long before he hit the jackpot, he told me that it took him 7 months and he is betting daily at 100  pesos or $3 so his losses are bigger than winnings.

But surprisingly he did not calculate his losses all he cares about is he finally wins, how about you do you remember your losses when you win a big amount and do you calculate your losses and ask if the winning is worth it?
your friend is a true gambler mate because he play for fun only that's why he didn't calculate all her lost after winning. But it's a bluff that he didn't remember that he spent many money on it just to win . Because it's your experienced within on it and it's impossible ypu don't remember anything . Especially when verytime you succeed because it will  throw back automatically when there's something good that happening on your life.  Especially if it's a related on it.

Good topic, I don't think that most gamblers remember their losses to be honest (including me). All they think of is that they just won and that's what matter most for them. And I doubt that gamblers realised that or put their losses on paper so that they would know how much money they have lost so far.  Grin

Why you have to remember, you win and that's all just matter,  tomorrow you might win again you will just frustrate yourself if you think that way, better just get your win enjoy it have a drink and face the next hoping that you will win, again and again, losing and winning are part of the game.

Surprisingly?would you expect him to cry for the losses when he should be enjoying the winnings!?And is there anything he can do to bring back the losses?

I don’t know what you wants to ask here because even in real life we don’t tend to remember the past but instead facing the future

If you are a true gambler or know about what  gambling is all about,this question will never comes onto your mind because in gambling losing is part of the game same as the winning

If he gambled for the sake of entertainment then i don't think he needs to calculate losses.

We all spend money on food, movies, video games — and usually we don't calculate it.

While, if he was into it for money then he should be calculating it, some gamblers manage sheets where they calculate their net profit and losses.

Depends on which kind of person your friend is.

He will remember his losses but wouldn't mind.
Just like me. I'm not a huge gambler. I mean, I only gamble from time to time or for merely entertainment. That's why I don't really mind my losses. What matters most is my winning.

And for my dad, who bets on lottery for over many years now, his losses are surely greater than the amount he wins. But the way I see it, he doesn't mind those money he lose. Sure he feels sad if his number doesn't come out but whenever the numbers are those he bet on, he is very grateful and the times he lost are just gone. He even bought me a present from his winnings. With that, I'm sure he didn't mind.

I'm not a big gambler I'm just having fun gambling, it's like you are spending when you are watching a movie, and you don't calculate how much you have spent in watching movies all year round, you treated it as part of the expenses, so If I win big in gambling I don't remember my losses
I'm just happy that I win finally.

Gambling is not my daily activities or even it is not my source income. I'm just playing gambling when I want and I had a money to play it. So I never count my money to spend when I play gambling and I never count as well my big win in gambling but I still remember my big win on gambling was I got $500 from sport betting and I never got again.

So my point here is I'll play gambling and I using money that I can afford to lose and I never goaded to deposit again although I'm still curious to playing more at there. I think I'm not a gambling addict I just know how to play gambling and must know when I must quite the gambling. Yeah, I think your friend is including to gambling addict but he never know how to play safe and how to avoid to lose.

This is the typical scenarios for most of the gamblers when they win.

They erased mostly the memories of being lost, like a slate being cleaned after winning. You are a filipino, I think so maybe you know the "balato", right?

Balato is when you win and people you know or lost ask for some consolation to you, might used the wrong word, I don't know. Most of the Filipino gamblers will say, "Talo pa nga ako ehh", meaning he still lost despite the win.

There are two reasons why they say this, first is because they don't want to give money to that certain person and the second one is that they are aware of their losses in the past that they just use as an excuse since they don't really wanna give money to other people. Even though they know they lost in the past, winning that time resets the losses in their minds and keep on gambling.

Congratulate to your friends, and that is a gift to him to win those games. I am very curious about how much his losses in those games because I guess his losses will be more than $300 if he places big bets. I hope next time he can make a note or he can write how much money he will use to playing gambling so if he can win some money on that game, and he will know if that is worth or not to continue playing the game.

I never write or calculate how much I lose money in any gambling games. Besides that, I don't have any experience to win more than $20, so I think that is okay if I don't calculate it. But if I am playing gambling every day, and I am a pro gambler, I think I will calculate or at least, and I will write in excel or notepad so that can remind me about my winning and my losing.

I never ask or even calculate my losses if I win big, or I will just sorry that I if win again because I will just calculate my losses again, and I feel sorry again and it will be a cycle, again and again, that's make gambling oppressive to you, and you will feel sorry that you gamble, because you are playing to lose even though you win.

I am not too deep in bet. And not really much to play gambling games. Usually i count how much already i losses and if win maybe i remember it. Only remember it but never count how much i win if compared with my losses. I think when win in gambling, you deserve to be happy and that is essence of gambling itself. If lose make us stressful, and when win we still think about our losses, it wouldn't make us happy.

That's really is the essence of gambling, to make you happy and enjoy your winnings, you don't have to remember your losses, or you will feel bad that you win, and there will be remorse every time you win, and that should not be the case, in my case I never really play to make a profit but just to entertainment myself.

You should really not remember your past losses, but the fun and the excitement that it brought you while playing the game whether you win or lose.

Yes, when i do won some amounts on gambling i do normally think if its worth it but in all games that i have been through i do end up on not to care at all if im just being able to hit break even or still on loss.We cant deny that  if we won,those stressful things we experience in losing bet would be wiped out and we do continue our betting hoping for another win and this is indeed the sad reality where the cycle continues and this is the reason why this gambling industry is booming up.

After winning big of course I still remember my losses that will help me remember to stop if I did recover my losses and stop playing at this time if I feel i'm not lucky at this time. It's what I do if I lose many times then i'll stop risking my remaining money and start on the next day especially if I won big that able to recover my losses.

Somehow not knowing your losses is a bad idea but of course, we play to have fun and not to chase our losses so maybe your friend is just playing like this and when he won he would be more happy. I know that game and that game is really a game of luck, its ok to lose as long as you’re aware of that and have the best gambling decision.

Of course, since most of us suffered from losses and that doesn't mean if you win big those losses were gonna get back or something. It's just that you were so unlucky before compared to when you won today. Your friend still remembers that since he said that he's betting it for 7 months with $3 i don't know if it is everyday(i hope not) or often in a week then you do the math. That is hilariously bigger than what he won! Shocked

It's his choice not to count his losses but for me, I use to count my losses. So that whenever I feel it's too much, I stop because I have my limit.

I think that's a feeling that other gamblers do, they don't care about their losses but it will make them feel that their win isn't worth it because they are oblige to calculate their losses against their wins.

It's interesting, because I know some people who are "almost" addicted to gambling, and they bet for months on the same machines, usually placed in pubs, and it's exaclty like you said, they win sometimes and they completely forgot about the losses
And one more thing, this money will be used to place some higher bets, and they will lose everything again  Grin Grin Grin
