Considering risk and regret, which do you think will be the most painful for a gambler?

- the pain from taking a risk that they take on a bet and they lose, or the pain from regret of not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option, a life-changing amount?
From expressions of the gamblers I have cut across I think that of a pain out of  regret has been much severe than pains from losing a bet due to a risk taken. In fact we take risk everytime we set out to gamble so we've got to get use of pains from risk. But that of a pain from a winning that would have changed your life and you missed it, the regret gonna stay there for a long time before you get over it. Am saying this out of experience. It's like an opportunity missed, it's had to handle and accept it that you have missed a life charger while people around you took up the chance.

Assuming that the topic consider a life changing amount on the regret then I totally agree with this statement since all the lose can be ignored after a few days or weeks of abstaining gambling while missing the opportunity to win life changing amount will always remain forever the pain.

I still have this kind of what if regrets until now since I do have a chance to become a millionaire before if I didn’t sold my early crypto holdings in the past. This is same when you have an opportunity missed if you already have a chance to get it.
Many times when we never take the opportunity to bet on a right changing games that would have given us profits, this can be very hard to be forgetton compared to the bets that we lost. Opportunity is not something that we can easily forget that is why we would keep thinking about it and how ones life would have changed entirely. Their are so many bets I have played and never win a dime but I can still remember so many bets I should have taken that could have given me better results making it a remarkable day my life would have changed. I have also learnt to say bye to every  of my regrets, I believe in new opportunities.

Opportunity they say comes only but once and when missed it almost never comes again that's why it will appear even more painful than an opportunity you did failed at. For gamblers especially those who have gambled for a long time and are used to loosing, they would say they will not be pained by loosing a game as much as a game they didn't place a stake on and it did turned out the game was won, probably it could have been a turning point for them especially for heavy stakes but for a regular Gambler it would have taken care of a bill or the other, putting all this together gets them to feel pained they didn't grab the opportunity when they saw it.

I don't know for me but there is no pain in rising anything in gambling as long as you do it and practice it in a way the money involved is something I can afford to lose, I can't feel any pain when I lose a dollar. Sometimes in my local currency, I do bet a cent and it do worth something later even if you make a conversion to dollar currency. Just gamble amount you know you can afford to lose and you will be fine with the pain of the risk.

As for the regret, I'm not sure about that as well. Its better to not to gamble and lose your staking power, your judgement should have a reason why you are not doing it and if it's okay by it, if the result turn out the other way round, you should never bother a out it. Perhaps it was never yours to play in the first place, you can't be lucky everytime you know.

Regrets are an important part of being a human. And where there are regrets, it usually comes in the end and not at first. That's why sometimes regrets are unavoidable since you have less control on it or you might have the control but you didn't take the risk, that's also something that is common in a human being. If you don't take the risk and end up profitable in the end, regrets are there, simply because no one knew that it will be the outcome then.


Do you think it's something that's really of any importance to humans? I don't think so, but rather, it's something that is inevitable, but it's mostly uncontrollable in some situations. Just like you mentioned, we cannot have control over it, but there are some situations where one can actually avoid it, but because of ignorance, they will do something that they have been warned not to do, and when the consequences of their action start, they will then start regretting it. 


Who doesn't regret making a terrible mistake that led to losing money or an opportunity to win cash? The real action is to get rid of the recurring thoughts that regret launches on the person's memory. I prefer learning from my mistakes, it helps me plan a better gambling strategy. Reminiscing over a painful past diminishes happiness. And, living in regrets is a chronic illness that could ruin a player's life. Minimizing it can help stabilize the health condition of any player.

Is regret an important part of our lives? Sometimes, in most cases, I consider it a punishment for not making the right decision, but in most cases, I also see it as something that tells us that we are still alive and can still reconsider the decision we have made in the past.
 
Whichever way I consider it, if it’s possible for us to avoid experiencing regret, we should avoid it, even as in most cases, it creates room for opportunity compared to taking a risk, which will burn out the amount used to place the bet.

All the gamblers will go for the regret because already we al know that gambling is risky so there is nothing to be afraid of. And it will be painful if you didn't risk the fund to play and someone bet or play the game and win exactly the way your were thinking of to play.
Gambling is risk event so whoever involved in it supposed know that so that you won't have the heart attack.

Your right. It's preferable a gamblers to accept the fact that they lose a bet when they gamble knowing full well that they may win or lose from the beginning than having to not bet the game and at the end of the day the game later played. The regret of not staking the game will be more painful but one cannot predict when a game will play that is why most gamblers fall victim to this kind of situation.

There are several reasons why people end up regretting gambling which is because they did not play the game because they are low on finances or they missed the period. A missed opportunity for life-changing experience can never  be forgetting.

Gambling and risk goes hand in hand and for sure it worth getting used to because when we are used to that pain of loses from our risk, the impact on our mental health will be less, unlike those that risk with the mentality of winning and also risking more than they can afford to lose, those in that category will face more pain when they lose along the lines they become pained to the point of losing it even more than just regret, because at times some of those gambler's may even go as far as borrowing money just to take that risk which at most will definitely put the in a tite corner when they expectations failed, when it comes to cryptocurrency gambling, there is the need to always take calculated risk and not just jumping on anything based on greed because greed can only lead to frustrating outcome at most times.

Considering risk and regret, which do you think will be the most painful for a gambler?
The risks and regrets are subjective, so it depends on the gambler and the context in which they are used, and they could be both painful with almost the same magnitude.

Risk: Wrong risk will definitely be painful especially if the gambler loses and could be aggravated if a huge amount void of proper management is involved. While the right risk is less painful because it can't be associated with a big risk and the gambler must have understood the risk he is taking.

Regret: It may also come in several ways and magnitude. You might regret if you take a risk when the outcome is negative and you might regret when you refuse to take a risk when your intended option and outcome come as you wanted.

Above all, risk and regret can be used interchangeably in gambling, notwithstanding, it's better you missed the opportunity rather than regretting later out of mistakes and senseless risk-taking.

You are correct that risk and regret in betting are highly subjective and can be equally painful depending on the situation. However, one must keep in mind that both can be steered clear of, or at least minimized, with a more measured and thoughtful approach.

Risk-taking is part of gambling, but it can be curbed by being well informed about your limits and proper management. Regret typically results from imprudent actions; most of the time, regret stems from acting without thought. Hence, it is wiser to be prudent in decision-making than to have avoidable regrets come later on a platter.

Ultimately gambling should be, done with a full awareness of the downside and not just chasing opportunities uncalculated risks.

By the way, today I planned to bet on Real (with or without a handicap, I was not completely sure) but I did not have time to do it either. I had almost no doubt that Real would win (it is impossible for two favorites to consistently perform below expectations). So today I can regret the missed opportunity but now is the very beginning of the season so I will go on knowing that there are a lot of opportunities ahead.

Yea, in sports games, if you miss an opportunity, you must not kill yourself for it because there would still come another game that can really play according to your prediction if you still stake on it. Sometimes one could still risk a certain amount in some bet and still lose it. That's when they will start to regret why they had to risk such an amount, and if it's in a situation where they also did not stake in the game and it played as they must have predicted, they will still regret why they never played the game. Human being is not usually satisfied with any result that they get; if they knew, they could have gotten more. 
Regrets are an important part of being a human. And where there are regrets, it usually comes in the end and not at first. That's why sometimes regrets are unavoidable since you have less control on it or you might have the control but you didn't take the risk, that's also something that is common in a human being. If you don't take the risk and end up profitable in the end, regrets are there, simply because no one knew that it will be the outcome then.
In general people regret way more a missed chance than a risk taken, and this is because when it comes to the risk you took, at least you can find solace in the fact that you tried your best despite your failure, but when it comes to the missed opportunities, you will always wonder what it may have happened if you took your chances, which is why if the risk you face is on the low side, it is preferable to take the risk as there is a chance that things could turn in your favor and you may get what you want.

The answer to the question will be based on individual experience and the amount that was lost or would have been won. I will regret more if I lose since money is already involved. Betting with a huge amount and losing is very painful, especially when you have confidence that you will win the bet. The pain of losing an opportunity to win big because of fear of taking risks is painful, but it wouldn't last for a long time. Since I didn't lose any funds, in a few days, I might overcome the pain. Although I might still recall it once in a while every gambler should believe that the future is better. There will always be more opportunities to win big if you don't give up.

I agree. It will happen, but it's not because we want it to or because it's natural, but because we are not in charge Grin

I think the point is that as long as humans are in a normal stage of thinking (except having a mental disorder) then regret will always be something that can never be completely avoided, we are no more than ordinary humans who do not always know about what is likely to happen in any case, meaning regret will always be something that is certain to be felt. Ignorance will always drive curiosity and when the action is not accompanied by the ability to accept the consequences of the risk then regret will occur, meaning in my opinion there are two ways to avoid regret, namely either you do nothing or you prepare yourself from the start to accept anything that will happen that you did not know before.

With much confidence, I would say regret from not taking a winning chance, rather than suffering from painful losses that cannot be undone after that. Some people lost their savings, houses, stole and even killed after suffering huge losses,  there are some people that were rich and due to their addiction lost everything and became poor.
Sometimes, we find great chances with very high odds to set a bet but also afraid of losing it, after the results you find that bet is successful but you lost that chance and regret starts to eat your heart and keep thinking about it for days. However, in this case you will have other chances to find other chances and gamble responsably.
Losing an extraordinary opportunity may make us feel guilty about our decisions and have a guilty conscience, but you forget that when the result is not an opportunity, it is an unusual peace of mind when it is already a certain loss but fortunately, we have been warned and have no regrets. I mean a chance in gambling is just a combination of risk and adventure, it is not a pure chance to win, it must be a sacrifice in exchange for a relative result, do not let yourself be nervous, regret is sometimes not something to be ashamed of and must be avoided

I won't have much pain from a missed bet. There are always opportunities to grab some other nice games and wins good rewards. So we don't have force it so we don't end up making mistakes. On the other hand, it will be painful, taking risk on a bet and at the end of the whole game we come back with nothing. That's much more painful to me. I'll just rather not take such risk that is far above my play limits or even miss the game. Even though we know that loss is inevitable when it comes to gambling but then we must be able to minimize our risks.

Well, it would be more painful to loss a bet with a huge some than missing  a booked game which should have definitely  made a good win. Just like you said, there is always  time to make another game and try again but what has been lost, is gone forever. The best you can do is to make another prediction and if luck is at your side then you might win the game  and that may or may not satisfy you, but every win is worth being happy for, because  the probability of winning  is low. However  some missed bet can be very frustrating  as the potential win could have worth something really good.

But in the end trying not to be curious will be a little more to give a pretty good thing in my opinion even if it loses than not doing it at all . When we are gambling,  of course there are several things that must be considered including taking the risks that are faced when we want to bet so that if we really want to gamble then we must know and put aside regret a little because after all we must remember that even if we lose then it is the risk and consequences that we bear to answer the curiosity that we have and that there is no need to regret it because we have made a choice before .

Many people do not accept defeat when gambling and think that they are cheated or feel sorry for making a bet for me is ridiculous because if you don't want to regret it then don't do gambling in the first place. Since we have taken the step to gamble then we should be prepared to lose .
