Topic: Typical scenario when you are losing - page 15. (Read 1614 times)

Whenever I chase losses, I always lose more. That’s why when I am gambling and I notice it’s not my lucky day, instead of me chasing my losses, I will rather stop gambling for that day and come back another time. If I keep on chasing my losses, then I might end up losing everything in my wallet and I won’t be winning back any amount.

If I am stressed and am feeling sleepy at night, I won’t be able to concentrate on my analysis before placing my bet, my attention will be divided, which can lead to losing in gambling. I do gamble whenever I am relaxed and bored, but whenever I am sleepy, I will drop my phone and go to sleep because if I try to gamble, I am just trying to waste my money.

I've been known to lose a lot of money in this situation. Most times I get this insane belief that I might just hit the jackpot if I play one more at the expense of my sleep. One time, I inputed an amount I wasn't supposed but because I was playing with already drooping eyelids, I didn't notice.
One thing I've come to understand about gambling is if you put your whole attention on winning, it might not yield positive results but once you realize that it's a game of chance and set your mind that way, you will rake in winnings.[/list]

Many gamblers have gone through such losses and the the scenarios that you shared in your thread are 100% accurate for almost every other gambler. I have to say that the thing also happened to me many times when someone talked to me while I was doing gambling and due to shifting of attention I have also gone through losses. The same thing happened with me many times and that's why I have decided to do gambling only when there is no one in the room where I'm placing my bets because a minor distraction can be the cause of losses.

Most of those scenarios happened with me as well and I must say that there is a lot of emotions that could alter our luck during gambling. Any wrong emotion could lead to huge losses and that's why whenever we are under the influence of negative emotions or whenever we are out of energy then in such time we should avoid placing any bets because in those times most of our bets will be go wrong and we will have to bear huge losses.

Aside from these scenarios I have also lost a lot of money by following the Martingale strategy. That dam strategy is totally useless and whoever follows that strategy will end up emptying his/her account balance. I must say that if you are someone who plays crash game then avoid Martingale strategy at any cost because if you go with that strategy then you will surely lose everything you have.

basically, you tell us that you lose more when you're distracted gambling. Are you fond of playing games with strategy, or are you into games of chance? While I still think distraction plays a crucial part in affecting your decisions I don't think it would affect you that much if you're playing games like dice and roulettes, since your distraction plays little to no part in the outcome of the game anyway. As for card games like poker, I could understand it being a probable cause for you losing more money than you would've wanted, in which case I say you shouldn't gamble on the fly and only ever gamble when you're not distracted, saves you the trouble of losing games you could've won if you had a sound mind, but at the same time it drives the essence of gambling even further, which is to only be played as a sort of pastime/entertainment.

LoL, funny enough it's seem we are actually one together because almost all the list you made  is very much accurate to some of the ways I feel or thing that occur to me when I experience a huge loss, especially the that number two on the list although I would make an exception on the number one but apart from that all other one pretty much plays inline with same scenario that always results to me losing.

It's certain that when you lose in gambling imagination will be of you, sometimes it's not good to gamble with what you have not budgeted to gamble with, when you lose in gamble you will have a lot of blame to yourself due to the lose, and you will be planning or thinking on the way to strategies and gamble to win, and if you did not take your time you will fall to lose for the second time, you can only be at rest or have a Peace of mind in gambling when you win in gambling, immediately you win gambling it will lesser your thinking and you to think that you have increase your understanding in gambling and it will prompt to gamble more, but when you lose they will alot of imaginations and that is what we should try to avoid whenever we lose

Obviously I lose money when I gamble and I am sure I am on the red when it comes to considering my long term wins and losses, but all of those scenarios are something you must avoid at all costs, gambling is a way to entertain ourselves, but at the same time you need to be concentrated on it so your losses do not surpass a certain threshold, and all of those scenarios are really terrible as your mind is not on the games and this can and it will lead you to suffer massive losses.

Breakfast is a very important meal of the day; it sets the energy for the day. A good meal in the morning can affect your day positively while a poor an uninteresting meal can make your energy low for the day.

This can be put as while distracted, it is not good to gamble.

If you are sleepy, you sleep. Gambling should be for fun and if you are gambling at a time when you are sleepy, a moment when you cannot have fun obviously, you are doing the wrong thing because at that time you are mostly gambling to make money. It is not a good time to gamble when you are sleepy.

Me? this is kinda hard to share but when I am losing in a streak this is a bad habit and behavior of me , I tend to blame others for my losing money or i get angry when I got home, so since then I need to stop that behavior of mine so I  will not harm others, also it will discipline myself and help me not to gamble too much because if I will be too much again, I will end up doing that kind of behavior.

Oh man, you've pretty much nailed every scenario, from playing after a win to chasing both big and small losses. The question is, what's left, right? Ever tried listing out the scenarios when you're actually winning? Maybe it's time to focus more on those and see if there's a pattern there too? Just a little tip!  

We know that gambling is for fun and it should really be but there are people or gamblers who are really that anticipating on the positive side of things on which on the time that they do experience those small wins then they

will really be having that kind of intent that they would really be playing even more and chasing up for more win. Same goes when you are losing on which you would really be trying out to breakeven.On the time  that you
are on the situation that you are losing then there's no fun into it and cant really be deny and wont say that gambling is for fun, it do becomes stressful i should say on which this is really a typical situation which most gamblers are really that experiencing. If you arent that been wary about those risks and scenario then you would be finding yourself to be that stressful or something that do minds about that money that had been lost.

It would really be creating that kind of emotional type of problem which isnt really good for us not only just pertaining or talking about financial aspects but also in emotions as well.
When you do gamble, then expect that losses would be there, the most important thing is that you wont really be chasing up those losses and dont spend on the amount which is really going beyond your limits.

I don't have a certain pattern which leads me to a lot of losing in my gambling activities. I still do what I usually do, and no matter what happens there isn't anything that changes. Perhaps, it's not the activities that are making us lose. It's our luck on that given day especially in luck-based games. If it's not luck-based games then perhaps there's a chance to break the lose streak in a more improved routine.

This is not something I have ever done, and I don’t think it’s something that I’ll be doing anytime in the future. Whenever I wake up there are so many things that I think of including my plans for the day, how to execute them my daily job and some other things but to just wake up in the morning and head straight to my gambling site to gamble seems like something that one without a job would do.



It’s never a good thing to chase after a lose and most times when I find myself doing it I’m always losing more instead of the wins that I’m seeking. So I guess this is the same for everyone that has chased after loses at one point in their life.


I think I’ve tried this but it was because I wanted to just empty my gambling account so that I could focus on real life things, so I just set Auto bet on mine and left it over night and went straight to bed.


This one does not happen all the time but I have experienced it. After having a major win it makes it seems as if you have lost your focus on the game and all of a sudden you’ll start experiencing some losing streaks while some other times after a major win you’ll just continue on with the wins till a certain post so the losing and winning is not constant.[/list]

Going to gamble again after a big win is a poor way for us to gamble because it is going to make us lose money that we won because of the zeal of winning that kind of money again making us use big amount of money to cast bets. Gambling is something that we need to study ourselves enough and check what could be the reasons why we are making loses. If we want to be profitable, we need to study our weakness to know when things are going the wrong way so that we can fix it as soon as possible.

I usually take break from playing when I have a losing streak. It is because if I do something else, i play even more and my losing streak continues… The more I think about my losses the more it makes me want to play and that’s a very dangerous loop which can ruin you financially. When you lose a big amount, you should stop playing immediately and focus on some other matter. Watch a TV show, drink a beer, talk to your wife maybe. Do whatever you want but never ever go back to the table for a week at least.

Whenever I make losses, I sit at home and involve in recreational activities just to get the losses off my mind, because it's always discouraging to record losses. Gambling is risky, everyone knows what they sign up for whenever they gamble. It's definitely stage by stage, we gamble and feel the relaxation or pressure from the system, negative or positive results. Discipline follows, it prevents us from major setbacks in the system, it's really imperative and personal we takes activities that involves gambling to our plans, I wouldn't afford to make streak losses in the system.

I agree with most of these scenarios that are losing ones while I don't agree with gambling late at night,I usually play deep into the night starting in 20 PM and going up to 2 AM or more and in these sessions I have seen a lot of lost sessions but also my biggest wins are also in such time usually around 11 PM to 1 AM as in here I have hit the x2000 to x3000 which are my biggest multipliers.

All others I fully agree with them as I have experienced them first hand also but gambling at night for me is the biggest motivator despite the lost sessions as I said because of my max multipliers hit during that time.

Couldn't see myself waking up in the morning and the first thing I do is gamble without breakfast but seem like I have done almost all just as much as you have written. Didn't take me long to realize I'm not going to win on casino games.

My experience in Sports betting was that I bet a huge amount for the bookmaker's favorite team and then an upset happened.
And despite how upset is a common occurrence in the MMA sport, I tend to bet on unknown fighters on the cards.

This could be the typical scenario if you still have the budget to gamble despite of losing but if none, I’m sure you’ll be out of gambling for a Month or even longer. Though my usual scenario after gambling is that, I try to watch more sports or the live betting, and go find myself busy with other things. Since, I also have limited budget, I have to control myself and commit with my budget, losing is not easy but you have to accept it.

I usually do the opposite, after losing money in gambling I will stop playing for a week because i want my bad luck to stay away and If I play right away, I might get the same result of losing. You have to control yourself and set-up limit, discipline is very important in trading because if you do the same mistake, expect to lose more.
