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.

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.

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

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?

People who gamble too quickly or too much lose money but end up gambling again. In my opinion the only reason for this is to become addicted to it. Because I know there are many people who lose a lot of money and get addicted to it again and they think they can win the money again and reduce the amount of loss a lot. Although many gamblers place bets without realizing it and can even make some money. So I want to say that those who are on the gambling platform must have fun playing. If you don't do that, you may face a big loss.

My experience in gambling have shown me that there are times you enter winning streak and there are times you enter loosing streak. If on a winning streak, anything you play will work and it will look so easy. But when the loosing streak starts, it will be as if you are under a spell. It is not a good experience one bit.

When the winning streak comes in, I increase my staking amount to be able to maximise the period knowing it will not last forever.

On the other hand, when the loosing streak comes, I notice it whenever I loose straight bets and when this happens, I will reduce my staking amount to be able to handle that period.

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.

If what you mentioned above, there are no other words other than those who are of sound mind who say 'the world of gambling is not our world', regardless of whether they are addicted, fanatical, ambitious and so on, It is clear to those who are of sound mind that it is not a good idea to continue because every time you lose when gambling.

From the experience that I have seen from several of my friends who gamble, some of them are really successful in doing so, but quite a few are unlucky, so they lose and lose all the time, For this reason, you lose and lose all the time, you should think that there is no way to get money in the gambling arena, just think about stopping or continuing, but that's it, no one is perfect, everyone often feels like they fall into the same hole.

Some people who gamble for fun don't care about their losses since they will be gambling with an amount that won't affect them even after losing continuously. But some gamblers won't give up because they have the mindset of winning back all their losses if they don't give up. If I notice that a gambler is losing a large amount of money often but the gambler is not giving up, then I will know that the gambler is an addicted gambler. Addicted gamblers have the mindset that if they don't give up, a day will come when they will be lucky and win back all their losses, but if they give up, all the money that has been lost is gone, and they won't be able to win it back since they have already given up.

All maybe are there to have fun but majority also are about their losses since this is big negative to their capital if they continue to lose. Maybe some might not feel the pain of losing but once they see that their lose becoming more bigger and bigger especially when they see their current stats for sure after that playing would no fun for them and might they do a stressful betting since what came up on their mind is to recover those negatives he already facing on.

I might agree with you that those gamblers who are chasing up their losses is already addicted but sometimes that's not the real case since there are people just became greedy since sometimes they believe that its easy for them to recover back their capital they lose on they think wrong action they have done.

There is no motivation for why they continue gambling but just a chase of their losses.
In fact, nobody seems to be happy with that situation and of course, we want our money back. Usually, we double our bet for that sake and think that a single win could return our capital. Unfortunately, gambling doesn't go that way, especially if we don't have luck, and less chance to win as well. And the more we chase our losses, the more we lose money. I guess the best thing to do is to quit...

I'm up for the challenge, I think? Hehe. I continue, of course, because I can't just easily let go of those losses. You know, when a gambler loses money, it challenges them to improve their strategy and test if the strategy they've developed will work. So they keep trying and trying. It's unlikely that a gambler will lose every time they play. That would simply mean the gambler doesn't know gambling at all. The real scenario is that we lose most of the time, not every time.

There has been times when gamblers lose on a straight roll causing him some frustration because they lost almost every including their personal belongings. So I think if a gambler is losing and he keeps playing that means he has not gotten to the limit of his bankroll. Until you get to your limit and if you are yet to win then you will be forced to take a break.

I have known some like that too that have given up the chase for their lost money because they have exhausted their money, in their case even if they win, they end up losing higher amount.

So what would you do if you can't get more money to continue your chase for recovery of your loses.

They're motivated to recover what they lose, you know. Like you mentioned, they keep losing, but they still come back to gamble. It doesn't make sense to keep coming back if we keep losing; it's as if we're making the problem worse. But let's put aside the idea of losses, because there are people who kinda enjoy the entertainment they get from gambling. Despite the fact that they're losing money, they still come back to satisfy themselves. These are the folks who have a say in society, those who have a thriving business and just want to spend some of their profits to relax. Sometimes they win, but most of the time they lose, and yet they seem to be happy. This is quite the opposite from people who are already desperate.

While strategies and skills can be vital in gambling, but what is more crucial is to gain luck that makes you win every time you bet. However, despite of consistent losing, a gambler will definitely bet more because he is gambling in the first place not to incur losses but to certainly achieve a big win. And big win does not come easily, and you’ll likely experience more losses at first before you get lucky to win the jackpot prize. This is why even if he’s already losing a lot, he will never easily quit but try harder hoping to recover the losses and even  make more money after that.

While losing can be normal in gambling, but know that if you keep losing all the time without having some chances to win, it’s either you don’t know how gambling works or your way of managing your game does not fit in gambling.

Are there really people like that? It seems strange to me that someone will continue in gambling when failure is experienced in every gambling activity. That does not seem reasonable to me. Maybe they have had a major win before the series of losses....

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

This is not a ruse. It is an open confession for some people who express desire to have a winning so that they can exit because they are not benefitting from it while some already quit, licking their wounds.

There are several factors that can attribute to consistent loses which can be due to the gambler itself or how they go about gambling. Gambling is supposed to be less frequently but when we now make it too frequent, it could cost us some loses or put us in some circumstances that might not be easy to avoid. If we gamble too frequent we might get gambling addiction which has it own effect too. The urge we put in when we gamble too can be a big obstacle for us from getting the kind of winnings that we expected. We don't need to be too confidence about a bet so that to avoid any disappointment.

With 8 billion people, it's not unlikely that there's that kind of person out there that still gamble even if they're losing, technically every gambling addict is that kind of person that OP is describing/talking about, they're eventually losing even if they win sometimes and when they lose their money, they'll just come back again to do the same thing.
There is a very simple reason why people continue gambling even though they are constantly losing more and that is, they are chasing their losses all the time hoping one day they'll hit a jackpot and recover it all.
That's not really the case for some, trust me when I say that when this people you're describing and when they win, they will definitely still gamble hoping to get bigger wins, there's no endgame for them especially if they're addicted to gambling.

For some people who still bet on gambling even though they have lost because they want the money they have lost on the bet back, but very few people have lost in betting, they have a win at that very moment, but they lose so their money runs out before they stop. betting, I think this is very influenced by managing their emotions because they can't control their emotions so they keep betting even though they have experienced many losses.

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?
Easy answer is that we are chasing what we lost and we wanted to get it back. So we go and play the next day and then if we win then good, at least we recoup what we have lost. But in unfortunate circumstances that we continue to lose, then obviously we will go back and play. And that is the vicious cycle of gambling and that might fall in the category of gambling addicts. Because you can't really stop playing after a lose and you still believed in yourself that you can make it out alive that particular day with a big chunk of money in your wallet. But in most cases it's not. I know that there are people who says that they play for fun and be entertained, but sooner or later they will realized that they are losing money and it doesn't feel good.

People play gambling to win and have fun. I believe the simple motivation to keep playing is to stick to the main goal of winning and have fun. There’s no such thing as motivation on gambling since this not work or something that we need to work hard.

Gambling is just a leisure activity to get entertainment by winning money through the games played in the casino. I always feel to gamble whenever I have free time and money to spend it. I don’t need any motivation to play even though I loss in my previous game since I don’t consider them as connected.

We should also take in consideration the fact that most people who gamble consistently are addicted to it and cannot stop. Doesn't matter if they lose or win a lot of money, they are going to keep gambling no matter what happens.

People who often lose sometimes don't give themselves the chance to win. They can't stop and always play until everyone loses. This behavior is prone to mental disorders. Just as it is difficult to explain to fat people the dangers of a large amount of food since they get pleasure from it, it is in vain to explain to a gambler that such passion leads him to a cliff. All promises that a person will stop playing after he wins back his loss will most often remain just empty words.

If you're a gambling addict who always spends their time and money just to gamble but the final result is always far from expectations and I say it's natural because this is gambling not a place to earn income.

And also on the other hand the impact of gambling is very dangerous, so if they always come with the wrong mindset then of course things they don't want I'm sure will definitely happen to them, such as maybe stress because their psychology has been disturbed and debt, this condition is very dangerous and can also be seen not infrequently from those who even end up committing suicide, I often see cases like this in the news recently.

Basically, I understand that it is difficult to give advice to those who are already addicted, they will not listen to it because most of their mindset has been dominated by lust, all they want is to continue playing with very high hopes for a victory, that's all they think about. I think they will be able to stop when they have experienced a very significant downturn whatever it is, for example, a very large loss to save a lot of debt or destruction in the family, well after that they will think.
