So my question is this,as a gambler what mistake have you made when gambling that prevented you from winning big.
Let's discuss.
It happened to me many times because of greed. Though this is not much, I deposited 1 mbtc (this is my set budget for gambling) to my favorite casino where i'm playing live baccarat. I was lucky to grow it to 6 mbtc, but since i'm thinking I can gain more if I continue playing, I didn't stop.
Greed only allows us to continue for more but of course, we must still stop at some point because there is no way that we can win unlimited amounts of money in just one sitting. The casino needs to earn too. The correct title of this thread must be "mistakes that prevents us to cash out our winnings".

I'm sure many people can relate with that, it's because it's natural for us humans to be greedy. There might be some who can successfully withdraw but the temptation is still there and they could re-deposit again. If they can not control their temper right after a loss, they will continue on re-depositing up to the point that they will bust all their previous winnings.

I think greed ia definitely one of the biggest gambler mistakes ever. Many gamblers are making careful and accurate guesses but seek only more and more profits. This mood literally triggers bad omens in my opinion. Its best to be calm like water while gambling, not caring that much about it, not giving it utmost importance etc so you could wake good omens. I am not huge believer but I think this can work in nature spiritually.

The thing you mentioned at the end is exactly what greed is all about. When destiny is giving you the opportunity to get $200 which you can get immediately but you become greedy and wants to get $1,200 that only is a possibility and you might not even get it, you will even lose the $200 that you could get and might not get $1,200 as well.
Yeah, another one could be taking useless risks. I remember so many times when I make huge parlays I end up losing with just one game. If you end up betting on 9 games, and win 8 of them, and because of that one loss you end up losing all your money, that's greed for sure but that's also taking a risk you shouldn't have as well.

If I wagered on all those games one by one, I would have made a lot less money, and I mean like seriously little amount of money, but at least I would had some chance, and that's what matters. That is why I try to keep the parlay to a minimum, except when I have some profits I want to burn through and have some fun with, in that case it becomes a little bit more money that I can risk and that's when I do parlay.
I can't count how many times people close to me have lost a lot of money to gambling because of one game that mess it all up, this is very common because people want ti walk away with Bigger amount of money using small amount of money, it's greed and a higher risk than taking a normal risk, why not 3 games? Why not 4? But you will see people betting on 9 games so that they can turn into a millionaire over night.

I have made many mistakes that have prevented me from winning big but I don't keep record because I know if I decide not to do that thing again  that doesn't mean I'll win the game since gambling isn't something you can predict the outcome, as wining is based on luck.

The only thing I have learnt my lesson on and kept on reminding myself whenever I play bets is to always stick to what my guts tell me. I don't go back on my bets and don't add more games to it or change my mind after I have locked my bets in, I do this to avoid regrets.

If you still have problems with controlling your greediness it's going to cause you alot of losses when gambling as it's greediness that's one of the many reasons why gamblers lose. Also don't over bet as using big amount to stake doesn't mean you'll be successful with your bets.
Greed was the ultimate mistakes that kept me from reaping enormous benefits from the system, I couldn't stop it and it continues, i can't remember the numerous times I got my accounts liquidated. There are numerous impediments that would prevent us from reaping significant gains from the system. We only need to be cautious while working with the system, because it frequently favors us and drains our accounts, and one is aware of the risks involved. Fear has kept me from winning many points from the gambling system. It is never too late to develop a backup plan to avoid certain losses.

A good enough strategy that there won't be many changes made to your bets. You don't add any stakes and always stick with it without changing your mind. But do you have a change of plan to use strategy A or B, so you have a backup strategy? Regret will always be there, but the opportunity to get a bigger bet will always be there. I also always believe in my initial choices and strategies without much change.

As a gambler,I know that we have done so many mistakes in the pass base on our bets and wrong strategy or calculations that we have done which led to losing the game that was suppose to make you win big. I want to use myself as an example,I love sportbet and I bet more on it. Last months I placed my bet on 7 games that was to be played for two days. When the 5th game was played,all matches came out as predicted and I was called by the casino,to offer me a cash out of $200 in my local currency and I refused it because if the other two games was played and the I got the predictions right. I will win $1200,so I turned the offer down. The painful part of it was that the two games were to kick off on the same time,and after the games,my prediction for the two games was wrong. I felt so bad because I allowed greed to control my emotion. For this reason,I having decided that when ever I have an opportunity to cash out again,I will always go for it,instead of thinking that I can win all the money.
So my question is this,as a gambler what mistake have you made when gambling that prevented you from winning big.
Let's discuss.

Greed can be very detrimental to us, that's true, but fear can also prevent us from getting bigger results, when we are always afraid to take risks, so the results obtained are not very encouraging, but that won't be a problem if we can accept every outcome of gambling with good without ever regretting because we know that the outcome of gambling can never be predicted, even when we are sure we will get a profit because we have done a good analysis in every sports bet but it can happen the other way around, so when we can properly accept the results we get it means we enough to have self-control because we know that gambling without self-control will only lead us to defeat after defeat, without being able to give us the opportunity to enjoy the results even if only a little.
Yes we can't deny the fact that fear prevented us from winning, sometimes we need to use our gut feeling to win a game but we are afraid of losing. The moment we are always afraid of losing is the time that we are really losing more and more. So we need to get rid of that emotion. But winning big time is not predictable as well so have your hopes not too high but don't be afraid to take a risk.

I don't think there is a big mistake in the context of predicting a win. Maybe other people think it's a big mistake when you miss a bet because of some reason or doubt, while you have a stated prediction and then it's correct. But I assume that no mistake, there is no evaluation to use for future bets that will increase the accuracy of your predictions.
In this case, it can be produced subjectively about how that person made a mistake in predicting his choice, usually one of the mistakes I've made is at the sportsbook choosing the team I like because I think that the team I like is playing well enough, but I don't consider it that there were several players who were injured on the sidelines of important positions in this team, I think that was one of the mistakes that made me fail to make a profit in that match, and the fact that the mistake will be realized by ourselves, if you don't feel there was an error in your bet and you are also in a losing position, I am pretty sure that you did not evaluate your bet, why could you lose that bet.

Also in casino gambling, my position was when I won and I still wanted to try my luck with a higher bet but I ended up losing and then I got emotional which made me fail to take profits at that time, and that was also my mistake in the past. no self control in casino gambling.

For example, when you start gambling with a balance of 100 dollars on the site, even making 1000 dollars is actually a big win for me. For some, even this is not enough for some, while some do not even manage to get up to 1000 dollars, they can also be from the money in their hands. You realized that it was a good experience for you and you realized how bad greed is a bad emotional state. When greed is involved in gambling, it's inevitable that we're going to get very bad results.I've always been able to stop myself when I start playing knowing that.So when I start losing money, I can say, "Okay, that's enough for today.”
Greed can be very detrimental to us, that's true, but fear can also prevent us from getting bigger results, when we are always afraid to take risks, so the results obtained are not very encouraging, but that won't be a problem if we can accept every outcome of gambling with good without ever regretting because we know that the outcome of gambling can never be predicted, even when we are sure we will get a profit because we have done a good analysis in every sports bet but it can happen the other way around, so when we can properly accept the results we get it means we enough to have self-control because we know that gambling without self-control will only lead us to defeat after defeat, without being able to give us the opportunity to enjoy the results even if only a little.
We must be fearless when gambling. Gambling is a risk factor in itself and we all know that it is not a sure way to win. At the end of the day, you can lose all the money you have or you can win several times more. It's all about greed and fear and how strong your will is. If you don't have a specific goal in mind, when you play without knowing when and where and how to take a risk, you will stay with your fear. If you play with greed, I would say that you have no limits and where you don't have a goal, you are more likely to lose most of your money. Especially in sports betting, this can still become a predictable situation with a number of factors, but we cannot predict the events that will take place in and during the game. This is also a risk factor.

So my question is this,as a gambler what mistake have you made when gambling that prevented you from winning big.
Let's discuss.
Greedy is basic human nature, nothing is wrong with that. I ever in the past when didn't take advantage of the opportunity so that make it all gone. what we can be done this is how to manage it. The meaning is, we should not do the same thing again in the future. So when we have the same situation again, we should be as much as possible to control it. I know $1200 is big money, who doesn't want to get big winning, but if the reality is we only can have chance wins of $200, there is no harm if only take that $200 only.  Smiley
How is there nothing wrong with greed? It's a negative emotion that makes you do things that are unnecessary only to get extra gains over what you are already getting or have gotten, and that usually makes you lose what you have already got which is why it is something that we should avoid at all costs. A greedy person can barely become successful at any venture, be it gambling, a business, or any financial situation in your life, be real and try to get what is rightfully yours or what you are getting out of luck but never get greedy.

The thing you mentioned at the end is exactly what greed is all about. When destiny is giving you the opportunity to get $200 which you can get immediately but you become greedy and wants to get $1,200 that only is a possibility and you might not even get it, you will even lose the $200 that you could get and might not get $1,200 as well.

Leaving a small balance at the time of withdrawal is something I'm used to. And it has indeed become a habit for me to come back the next time, or even the next day. I usually set a winning amount, for example 1x, or 2x, or whatever from the amount of deposit I made. I do that to suppress my greed if I have tasted victory. As you said, we don't know when we win whether the luck is still with us or has left, so we have to keep something so that our initial victory is not lost just like that. It would be a shame when we have won, then we can't withdraw anything from the casino.
I also leave a small balance, maybe $10 to $20, in the betting account so I can get back to gambling whenever I want. And we can come back at any time because we have found pleasure in playing that gambling. But I never set a limit or win amount because it's hard for me. So if I win at any rate, I will try to stop immediately instead of continuing to play gambling in other gambling games because that can trigger the defeat that I will receive. It can also avoid frustration if I stop because by continuing to play to reach the win limit and we lose, we can become frustrated and want to keep playing until we reach the win limit.

That's a problem for most since not all the time we can control ourselves. There is a time that we are too aggressive and wanted to win more especially when we got the momentum already without thinking that the next bet will be our unlucky bet. That is why I would say that most gamblers usually can never take home big winnings. This is how gambling works, we can win at this time but can't think that we can win all day and this is because luck never stays long for us. 
Well, that gamblers can not win all day is an established fact and its not debatable, even in sports betting, no matter how we know our games and have good knowledge of sports, the team, the weather and every other thing that affects the out come of a match, we still fail to make the correct predictions some times, for most bettors, its most of the time, by this, i mean that their lost bets are always greater in number and sum, than their won bets.
So yeah, gambling, though it offers us the opportunity to make money while having fun, its never a consistent way of making a living, though many have made millions of dollars through gambling, but they also spent a lot too, and even after winning such big money, if they don't withdraw from gambling a bit, they will still lose it all back to the casino.

Yeah, more on how luck back up your bet, I like that argument regarding to how you place your bet, if luck permits then you'll win big time or if luck is not in you back even how sure you think you are or how small odd you think that will secure your bet, but no one can predict the outcome as there's always other side, you win or you lose depends from how luck will give you the outcome.

Best to keep your composure and not to fall with aggressions that mostly influenced your emotion when making a mistake.
Well, we can only try to enjoy our gambling moments to get that pleasure. After all, that's what we gamble for, right? But if our goal in gambling is to make money, I think it will only frustrate us, especially if we get a losing streak that can make us spend even more money to recover losses.

We also cannot be too sure of our luck because no one knows when we will get lucky and we can only see if we are lucky we will win the game. Meanwhile, if we are not lucky, we will lose. But most people will only continue to gamble if they lose and don't choose to stop for a while. And I agree to maintain calm so that our emotions are not affected and not trying to recover our losses.



No one knows when luck will come out and backup your gambling activities, in some instances gambler failed to take advantage as instead of quitting while they still have that earning they push forward and try to make more money, and when losing streak start to come out and bring continuous red in every attempts that you deal with frustrations added up and lead you into more unsuccessful bets.

That mindset that you missed the opportunity and you will try to bet for more and seek if that same luck will back you up, but most of the time it won't come and you lose a lot of your money.

The painful part of it was that the two games were to kick off on the same time,and after the games,my prediction for the two games was wrong. I felt so bad because I allowed greed to control my emotion. For this reason,I having decided that when ever I have an opportunity to cash out again,I will always go for it,instead of thinking that I can win all the money.
So my question is this,as a gambler what mistake have you made when gambling that prevented you from winning big.
Let's discuss.

I have experienced what you are going through many times before. I am sure there is no one here who does not experience the same things. After all, being greedy is our common weakness. That's why I only bet on a single match now. I think this is a safer choice. Because as the number of matches increases, your chances of winning statistically decrease. I think it's better to bet on a single match. In addition, this method eliminates waiting for long hours. I choose to bet on a single match because I am a bit of an impatient person and like to prefer safer methods. I recommend you try it.
The adage "less is more" rings well in this situation, as complications caused by several bets can quickly lead to a downward spiral of frustration.

But let me argue the other side for a second. Isnt a big part of betting on many matches the excitement and tension that comes from doing so? The odds may be stacked against you, but that just makes things more exciting, right?

Sticking to one match at a time does seem like a good plan, especially for someone with your self-proclaimed impatience. I understand the need for a quick resolution, for a shred of optimism in the face of overwhelming odds. The beauty of novelty should not be forgotten.

Maybe this is directly about a mistake that prevents one from winning big, but I have sometimes had a bad timing when I chose the cash-out option because I lost confidence in my former decision on the potential outcome of the bet. Then again I have also been right at times, but I think this is something that can also cost you some winnings from time to time when you deviate from your former decision. I don't know if there is any rule or whether it is better to leave as it is, but when you follow the game in a stream circumstances might be a good indicator to pull the cash-out option.
