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.
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.
