I this is only applicable for those huge capital gamblers in order to monitor their progress, keeping a record is safe and secure as well as the visibility will be more clear if a gambler got massive wins or loss.
Not necessarily. You can still track your gambling activities even without starting with a small amount. It’s up to you. As a gambler, sometimes we ambitiously think we can turn gambling into a sustainable activity, like making a living from it. If that is the goal, you cannot just start with a large amount of money without ensuring you can already do it. You need to be consistent to be profitable, so you need to experiment first by starting with a small amount and then gradually increasing when you feel confident that you are making money.

What's important is that you don't let your emotions affect your game plan. You need to be smart and follow your strategy with discipline, so you won't panic when you experience a losing streak.

Something just came up in my mind and I feel it will be good for me to bring it up here because it can benefit some people to make a better decision or adjust gambling habits.  

Do you take record of every game played for the year or month or week, then calculate the number of total games that was won and lose. I feel calculating the total amount of lose can help one to adjust gambling habit of playing frequently and also to reduce the amount of money that is spent on gambling. I think when the amount of lose is too much in gambling it is either affecting one financially or turning one to become addictive to gambling.  

Do you think keeping record of gambling activity will play a good role to someone's gambling lifestyle?

This is only applicable for those huge capital gamblers in order to monitor their progress, keeping a record is safe and secure as well as the visibility will be more clear if a gambler got massive wins or loss. However, this might stress a person upon seeing the trend with gambling records because not most of the time you'll be lucky enough to showcase the winning streak. Losing streak might have affect your gambling lifestyle, the same manner with different hard core gamblers. Meanwhile, I wouldn't suggest this to soft hearted gambler because they'll be affected emotionally if can't handle during stressful situations.

Yes ofcourse. In fact tracking your expenses is a good habit and helps you to manage your money.
At the same time, you need to be well determined to control yourself from gambling when you see that your losses are going out of your budget.
You also need to plan out in advance in case you see more number of losses than expected.
Keeping a track of your gambling activity will not only help you monitor your losses but will also prevent you from becoming a gambling addict.

Do you think keeping record of gambling activity will play a good role to someone's gambling lifestyle?
No, because I don't see any benefits we get from doing this. But what will happen is that it only reminds us of the losses we experience which could bother our minds and frustrate us. Of course, I don't say I was afraid of remembering those things but I choose to forget all those bad experiences that I have rather than it always appears in my mind. To forget helps to start a new beginning by doing it in the right way and by learning from the mistakes we made in the past.

I don't know if someone did this give them huge changes or make them win more. But what I believe that it is not necessary to do is because keeping it in our memory couldn't help but instead, it will only give us a reason to hate ourselves.

Rather than recording the number of losses and the number of wins, I’d say record the amount you lose and the amount you win. This is how you can truly tell if you’re on the winning side or on the losing side. And I know that this will help curb gambling addiction and activities if the gambler notices that over the past months, despite not feeling like they’ve been losing, they have actually lost a lot.
For gambling enthusiasts or people who frequently gamble every day and have even made gambling their hobby, it is certainly not wrong to want to record the number of losses and wins they have experienced while gambling. But for those who only gamble for entertainment with small capital, I think people like that will not make notes about it because maybe they consider it to be something that is not important. But if this can relieve a little of his addiction to gambling, of course it's not a problem to make a few notes for himself as a final reference.

The only reason for recording gambling activities imo is to track how much is lost and to realize when to stop, when it is enough for this week or month. All other stats are so random and unconstant, that it is impossible to build any analisys on that. I hope everyone understand, that there is no win strategy from result analysis in gambling.

Absolutely right, I also don't understand how strategies can be in general in gambling where slots and roulette, or betting ged bets.
Therefore, there is no point in collecting statistics.

The only thing that needs to be recorded and analyzed is your income and expenses for the casino.
To understand how much I can spend next month on gambling, and so that there is no damage to my usual household expenses, such as Food and Rent.

Yes, it can be very useful and able to have positive impact on gamblers who really have wise and responsible attitude towards all the results of gambling activities that have been carried out and of course they can take into account what should be done in the future to improve.
But for those who have quite high emotional temperament and gamblers who measure everything in terms of profits and are unable to accept any bad results, I would say that it is not recommended.
I think that those who are more easily emotional in certain conditions and are unable to accept every bad result or the amount of loss that is certain when calculating the amount of loss can make them feel like they don't accept it and in the end they feel emotional about betting again to recover the loss.
This kind of thing is quite worrying and whatever it is, if gamblers cannot behave well it will only have worse impact.

After all, this is just game and gamble, if always do it with excessive ambition it can also give you deep disappointment because gambling always makes the gamblers themselves have very small chance of winning.
It better to forget about wins and losses, think about coming to deposit money just to have fun and this can be much more meaningful.

I think it is great idea to keep record of your gambling activities including your wins and losses too. With tracking your gambling history will help you to identify patterns which you made and can give you a will to make good decisions about your gambling habits. Abd with calculating your total losses you can realize financial impact of your gambling habits and can motivate to reduce your spending. Further more recognizing emotions of losses can help you avoid developing addictive behavior for gambling. Keep record can serve as valuable tool for responsible gambling allow you to set boundaries and make good choices about your gambling activities. It is simple yet effective way to promote accountability and mindfulness in your gambling lifestyle.

Sometimes that can be a little harmful because we would be seeing things as if they were patterns or as if it were something that must be fulfilled and if we train our Brain to see things as a Pattern I think it can go wrong, I say this from my own experience, at first when I played dice I did a control like this, of course with each movement I would write it down, not record it, it just took me more time,  in this case things turn out the same but as we look for errors and say what would have happened if we had made another move? maybe the result would have been the Same , because of what they call: "house advantage".

Why do you think it’s mandatory? Keeping gambling records is optional, and I don’t have any record of my gambling activities, all what I have is gambling budget, and immediately I used up the budget which I set to gamble with in a day, week, or month, then am going to stop gambling for that moment because I know have already reached my limit. But am not discouraging keeping gambling records, but you shouldn’t say it’s mandatory, maybe people that didn’t keep their gambling records won’t gamble responsibly, or will end up being addicted to gambling. I will say most gamblers hardly keep their gambling records, I can’t imagine writing down if I win in a particular bet or lose.
I agree; I've never bothered keeping a record and probably never will. I set a budget and try to stick to it; everything else is completely optional. First of all, I don't really care about what my winning ratio is; thus, I don't feel like there's a need for me to record my bets, whether that's sports betting or regular casino games. What's most important to me is how much money I've spent and how much I've won or lost during my time at the casino, something that is offered in your account's statistics.
If we are diligent enough, then we can do it, record every money we use for gambling, but if not then that's no problem, because as said, this is optional. Just by setting a budget, in my opinion, it helps us at least have an idea of ​​how much money we spend on gambling every month.
In my opinion, the most important thing is how we can control ourselves as best as possible. because even if we record every expense we make every time we gamble and at the same time we can't control ourselves, then in my opinion it will also seem useless. Maybe we even get stressed every time we see the money we spent in our notes. That's not good for our mentality in my opinion. But once again this is a choice where if we want then we can do it, and if not that's not a problem either. Because the most important thing is how we can control ourselves as best as possible when gambling.

It’s a good practice. But I feel many gamblers are lazy like me. For us doing so much hard work is really a pain. Yes, how we can measure the profits is that if we deposit more and withdraw less, then we can consider that as making losses, and on the other hand, if we win bets and make good withdrawals, then we consider that as profit. I am at least doing this for many years. But to be honest, keeping records can really help you to manage your finances and do strategic gambling.

I think that he just wants to keep track of how much money he lost on a given month.
I believe it's not worth it to track how much money someone losses in gambling in a given month because such approach can dishearten some gamblers and it may cause fear in their mind if they lose a lot of money.

The fear of loss always create negative vibes and those negative vibes won't allow anyone to win even next month. Such gamblers end up losing even more next month or somehow get addicted to tracking of those losses.
Usually people track and record how much money they lose in gambling because they never realize that gambling is full of risks, so when they experience defeat there is a different feeling within them, namely that they feel they have lost, it is clear that they are not really prepare themselves thoroughly when gambling, at least consciously accepting all the risks when gambling so that there is no need to record, let alone record losses and money that has been lost in gambling, it is clear that it will be useless.

Another reason for those who record and record all their losses is because they want to try to get back the money they lost by continuing to play and hope to get a big win to be able to return all the money they have lost, but in fact it is rare for anyone to stop when they lose. gamblers get big wins, because greedy behavior will definitely make them keep trying to get more and there will be no end until they really run out of all their money and assets, they will realize that what they are doing is useless, all gamblers should be able to enjoy gambling as something fun and also make sure to use money that is ready to lose, it is much safer.

Yes, if one tracks his weekly or monthly gambling activities and calculates the total amount of dollars he has lost and won gambling in those days, he will know for himself whether he should continue gambling. I tracked my activity for a few days and saw that my losses were very high since then I have reduced the amount of gambling. Having a bad gambling addiction I made a decision to take out a bank loan to gamble which gave me a huge hit and motivated me to quit gambling. weaning yourself off gambling can be a smart task by monitoring gambling activity

Interestingly said, talking about the record strategy it's effective as it may seem. Just confirming from you about how effective it could be in pointing out how hard we've lost in gambling and as well lead us to reduce our gambling habit. But, in your statement above, was wondering if the addiction which led to going for loan came after you've been recording your activities or before? Just curious. Needful to understand carefully how effective this would be in minimizing gambling addiction and promote self examination for gamblers.

When I make investments, like a few ones I am currently into, or if I add more money to my business, I always keep track of the monthly turnovers. If I am making a budget for my needs and spending every month, I keep records on frequent occasions, but in terms of gambling, I don't keep any records. I can only have a budget to spend $5 today on gambling, but after that, nothing like record-keeping. I can't even remember the exact amount I won in my last spot bet unless I go back to my casino to check for the record there. 

I don't actually think that keeping a record of one's gambling activity can help the person be a better gambler.

But make it sure that you wont really be able to make yourself that being impulsive at the moment that you are seeing that your loses is keeping on piling up, because usually people do become that impulsive at the moment that they would really be able to see for themselves that their loses is getting bigger then this is where they would really be that becoming even more impulsive about on the actions that they are making. Instead on trying out to see those tracking for the sake of monitoring that they should stop but it do ended up on that different situation on which they are really that ending up on chasing up those loses because they've seen that they
had lost so much. If  you could be able to control that urge then its good but if you do saw that you are already that chasing then this one isnt that good for you.

Tracking with your gambling activity is something not really that a bad idea as long you do able to control your mind and emotions then there would really be no issues for you to be able
to encounter because the only shit thing that could happen is on the moment that you would really be chasing up your loses.
You are right because when someone lose some money, their minds will telling them to try to recover their lost money, no matter if they deposits more money. They must control themselves and trying to leave the casino before it's too late for them to realizes that they getting deeper in the casino. They must prevent the big lose that can happens so with stops playing gambling, they can holds their lose and will not gets more losses. They can record their gambling activities but they must do that every time they playing gambling and that will not easy as they can reminds about their wins or lose.

Tracking your gambling activity can helps you to realizes that you must not use too much money to playing gambling. There are no guarantee you can wins easily in gambling but you can lose your money in short time. You choose what you wants but you must realizes about the risks behinds of playing gambling excessively. Besides that, you must control your mind and emotions so you will not get tempts from gambling easily.

Most or I would say all casinos now have the betting history and records of your bets inside their platform, this feature is very important in all casinos and would show you detailed betting information for last 6 months or more. Usually most gamblers are using different casinos at the same time, so all you have to do is calculating the total amount from all the casinos. I really suggest for anyone to keep record on your gambling bets and activity, for a main reason which is monitoring your activities to control them.
Personally, I have even recorded video clips on my bets, especially higher stake bets, eventually, having a total statement about that would happen you adjust it much easier. Mostly, you would see how much did you spend and how much you could withdraw from gambling.
Isnt it a standard thing? About bet history and on how much you have bet or simply your gambling stats? Yes, there might be some cut-off with those information but most of them would really be showing those histories on which you could really be able to check out on which means that you would really be needing to tally manually on your own because you could directly check it out for yourself whether you had already spend up that much or not. Some couldnt really be able to see or check it out but it would really be that hard to believe on. Just like on what most people been saying on here is that having a tracking is good but
make it sure that you wont really be that losing your cool on the moment that you have seen that you are losing that big. People do mess up their lives on the moment that they've seen
that they had lost so much and trying out now to recover it on which this is a huge mistake that to be done.
