I have often wondered about the people who have lost a lot in gambling and who almost loose in every gambling activity they participate. What is their reason or motivation to continue even after so many losses?

Gamblers have many motivations for their habits, apart from wanting to win bets, there are other prospects that make them continue gambling. One of the reasons or motivations they continue to carry out their habits even though they often lose is because there are hormones at work that encourage them to continue repeating their habits or what is more popularly attributed to gamblers is Addiction.
Apart from the addiction factor, gamblers are always tempted by the great hopes that can be achieved in gambling activities. Even though the reality is not in line with what was expected, gamblers will continue to have the ambition to win and some of them think that giving up after losing is an act of cowardice.

If you frequently lose at gambling, it is important to consider the following steps:

1. Set reasonable spending limits and stick to them strictly.
2. Avoid taking unnecessary risks and avoid betting with unstable emotions.
3. Understand the odds and risks involved in a particular game before betting.
4. Consider seeking help from family, friends or related professionals for support and advice.
5. Critically evaluate your gambling patterns and consider taking a break from gambling if necessary.

Remember that gambling should be recreational and should not disturb your financial or emotional balance.

I have often wondered about the people who have lost a lot in gambling and who almost loose in every gambling activity they participate. What is their reason or motivation to continue even after so many losses?

They have high hopes.
They have seen and heard testimonies about people whose lives were transformed through gambling. They have once hit a major jackpot and they are hopping to win again. They have see lots of people who made it from gambling. Their hopes are high. Everyday they motivate themselves that they too will get there no matter how long it will take, what they lose and what it will cost them. Everytime they lose, they motivate themselves that tomorrow will be better and they will recover all they have lost. They have developed tough skin along the line.

There are still people out there who gamble as a means of entertainment. Losing or winning doesn't really matter to them. They will continue playing as long as they want, even if they lose consecutively provided they get the desired fun they want. Their motivation is fun.

I really don't have an accurate answer for that. It's just that, I want to continue gambling despite many losing, simple as that.

But just to be clear, it's not that my gambling session always ended up on a bad day. There are times of a lucky day too.

Anyway, I'd rather not call it as a motivation but simply, I just want to gamble. No other technical reason behind it.

To recover previous losses, to expect future outcomes are going to be different from the last ones, to still believe it's possible to overcome the casino on long run, to take advantage of promotions and rakebacks, to try a new gambling strategy, to kill time and have some entertainment, to record the gambling session and post on Youtube or Twitch for views, referrals and money.

There are different reasons why people keep playing, despite their losses. And along all these centuries of existence, gambling has never gone unpopular. There are always people looking to play, even knowing they are mostly likely to lose funds on long term.

actually there is no motivation for that, they just really like gambling, i have also lost several times but did that loss make me have to stop gambling! Of course i won't, it's the same thing with those who you see quite often lose at gambling but still play, they continue to play not because they want to return the capital they have lost but because they want to continue playing because when they gamble they feel entertained or just want to just relax. anyway, gambling has become a common activity for many people so there is no need to be surprised.

None other than chasing the losses. Ask everyone this question and you're seeing now the answer of everybody and it's just the same. That's the actual motivation that they're getting from the rest. If it's not with the losses then it's mostly all about the fun that they're saying that they are gambling for the entertainment that they're getting from it. Having that many losses will discourage you from gambling honestly and those who are trying to recover it will definitely lose more.

but in gambling, hyper-positiveness is like a balloon; when it's blown, there's nothing left.

That's what everyone has on their minds. Being too optimistic that they'll be able to recover their losses as they continue is going to happen but that's not gonna happen to everyone. Some may find success on that chase but the majority like you and me will have trouble finding it.
I like the comparison you've made about balloon and when it pops, that's like the pain and disappointment will show.

The reason to continue is just very clear, “To recover the losses”, after losing a game or bet, gamblers will always think that the next game will be in the money, Literally, nobody wants to lose when it comes to gambling, and this is where that gets them going and has been the general mindset of every gambler and their reason to continue betting after countless loses. The very day that a gambler understands this, is likely the time they will tend to take a break or stop.

It's hard for many people who have not taken that path, or become addicted to anything that is detrimental to your health, to understand the mindset that someone ends up in. There will be some kind of hook that lured this person into gambling in the first place, but at the far end they will have long forgotten that usually happy moment that drew them in. Instead they have formed a habitual behavior that defies logic and simply take robot steps on a regular basis, often without much joy. They may try to justify it to themselves in all manner of ways, but ultimately 99.99% of non skilled gamblers will be money losing players over their lifetime, simply because the odds are engineered against them on purpose.

I also had this doubt a long time ago: what's the real motivation behind them? If addiction is the reason, then what are they addicted to if they are losing every time?People easily give up if they fail to achieve in fewer attempts, but you guys are easily giving up on your own wealth, even if you fail many times. When the results do not show what your real motivation is, People often believe that if not today, tomorrow, or someday, is my lucky day. It's not bad to think this way, but in gambling, hyper-positiveness is like a balloon; when it's blown, there's nothing left.

These people are usually gambling addicts who had successful experiences in the past and were lucky enough to achieve some profits that made them think that they were among the lucky category of people. It is the same group that is incapable of productivity and has nothing to invest in their talents or acquired skills.
If we exclude the wealthy who enjoy spending money excessively, it is possible to establish precise specifications for the category of gambling addicts because they have several commonalities. One of the most important denominators is that they are helpless people and have a dependent mentality. Other than that, there is no justification for anyone’s insistence on continuing to play despite successive losses.

If someone can't stop to gamble it's mean he's a gambling addict because there's no way a responsible gambler will try to gamble more than the money that they've budget for gambling.

A gambling addict is related to making money through gambling, so they will try to make as much as possible which is impossible and they will never achieve it.

Situation makes people do what they aren't meant to do in the first place. Some gamblers over gamble not because they have the intention to continuesly, they do it to win without a single loss but along the line, loss comes into the plan and when that happens, the first thing that comes to their mind quickly is to get back what they have loss and if they are not lucky on the first rollover, that's how rollover pile up in their sleeves.

Anxiety of losing everything can be terrifying because when you lose more than you plan, fear step in and if you are not the experience type, you will be angry and play more to chase the capital until you don't have anything on the balance and been addicted will never comes to your mind, they don't know they are affected already with gambling addiction.

Quote from: virasog on October 19, 2023, 10:08:07 AM

There are very few gamblers, who gamble for fun only. I think only those who are rich and have a lot of money, only they take gambling as a fun only and may not care if they lose or win. Otherwise, most of the gamblers are very much concerned that they do not lose big money.

Your statement is one of the most avoided in gambling, people don't want to accept that gambling makes people to only gamble for money and not for the fun as they used to say. Anytime I heard I gamble for fun, rich kins men is the first thing I think of the person and if the person is not from a rich background, then I will believe the person is not saying the truth. Fun comes only if you have money to throw away.

A gambler continues to gamble even after repeated losses for several reasons. One of these reasons is that they consider gambling as a means of making money. Other think that since there is a chance to win more money with good luck, which is not possible with any other platform. Some believe that luck can be favored by repeated attempts. Various activities cost a lot and if a small amount of that expenditure is spent on gambling then at some point luck will change the pace of life which is not possible in any other way. Some people spend even losing money on gambling to recover their lost money.

At first, it used to be the winnings, once you start to lose most of your sessions, you'll get desperate to win and even look for the best ways to secure a profit. Now it's all about the entertainment side of gambling as I try to tone down my gambling stakes and prioritize having fun over winnings.

I also saw others mention chasing losses and I have to agree almost every gambler would use that reason maybe once or more because, at some point, you can't always keep taking the hits that the casino throws at you.

There are different reasons behind that, and it all depends on each individual.
The first thing I know is, have the desire to make money. It's all about the willingness of every gambler to take a risk in exchange for having a chance to multiply their bankroll. Even with consecutive losses in gambling, having the desire to experience and the longing for winning will make you continue to gamble.

Their addiction. Being addicted to gambling will make a person disregard losses. The only important thing is for him to gamble/play and satisfy himself by gambling.

For fun. People find it as entertainment, not a single worry about the losses. They just play while enjoying themselves.

When you see a gambler who's always losing but still decide not to give up his gambling activities, it can simply mean that such person is either gambling for fun or he's already addicted to gambling and can't help himself by stopping the act of gambling.
There are people who are very wealthy but are still gambling regularly and these set of people will always gamble no matter the results they get from gambling because they're not gambling in other to make money from gambling rather they're doing it for fun and enjoys gambling. While some others who are addicted to gambling after several losses will still continue to gamble more in other to get win back all their losses which in most cases doesn't work that way.

Once you do get yourself addicted then going out from it would really be that most likely to be impossible or something that would really be that hard. This is the risks if you do really actively tending to deal up with gambling activity on which you would really be that putting yourself at great risks on getting addicted and this is why it would really be just that right to have that control or else then
you would really be going into a situation on which spending would really be that impulsive and as long you do really have that money then you cant really stop on spending until you do lose it all.
Tons of people had become that addicted because of such wrong move and intent towards gambling.

If you do really have in mind on making money or making yourself that rich towards gambling then this kind of thing will really motivate you on playing even more. Once you do instill up
into your mind with this kind of thinking or mindset then it would really be that just normal that your brain would really be trying out to do on whatever things that should it take
until you would really be reaching out that goal but since gambling is risky and always that in lose then its impossible that you would be able to reach this.

Yes there are people like that and quite a number of gamblers have not won what will measure up to how much they have lost.

Well, if it is in the aspect of being in net loss, I agree with you, and my response did not really cover that. The bookies are generally in profits as the odds is in their favour else the companies will collapse. But for those who never won yet continue to gamble, that is an error.

Quote from: Gozie51 on October 19, 2023, 07:29:05 AM

In my neighborhood for example, there are lots of gamblers still trying their luck with the hope to win for the first time.

A simple self appraisal will easily show them that gambling is not for them... they should find what they are good at and stop wasting their money. Gambling is serious business and not something that depends on luck entirely. Hence, it is either they change their strategy or quit. Do you know the pain of putting in money continuously without getting anything in return? It damages the mental health so the best is to quit and look for something else.

Everyone has different motivations when gambling, sometimes there are those who hope to get a big win and there are also those who consider it as entertainment. For those gamblers who hope to get a big win or jackpot, they usually hope that the win can restore the money they have lost because of the loss. so they continue to continue the game to get it motivated.

The most common motivation for the gamblers is money. Is there any other motivation other than money, I don't think so. Gamblers see that there are people who have won life changing income from gambling, and this motivates them to gamble in the hope of earning a jackpot. However, not all gamblers will be that lucky and most of them will lose, instead of winning.

Quote from: piebeyb on October 19, 2023, 09:48:34 AM

But for those who only consider it as entertainment, even though they lose, they usually continue playing at certain times just looking for entertainment and having fun, so there is no motivation for that, they just gamble as usual and consider winning to be just a bonus and losing as just something normal. like paying for entertainment. There is no need to be strange about losing because the dealer will always win depending on how we gamble with different motivations. Grin

There are very few gamblers, who gamble for fun only. I think only those who are rich and have a lot of money, only they take gambling as a fun only and may not care if they lose or win. Otherwise, most of the gamblers are very much concerned that they do not lose big money.

All gamblers are different, so the options can be as many as you want. I can name three of the most common in my opinion:

- beginner is likely to return after a loss because he wants to win back,
- experienced player knows that losing is as natural as winning, so just does not pay attention to it,
- a gambler with an addiction gambles with all the money he has, so he will return to gambling until he gets help or runs out of money.
