I totally agree with what you said. Losing all my money happened to me last year. I had this thought of chasing back my losses when I already knew that I lost all my money so the mistake I also did was I borrowed a big amount of money from my friends in gambled it all, just trying to get back my losses but what happened was I also lost the money I borrowed so I ended up getting depressed by that time, did not eat for days, until someone approached me and asked me to forget what happened and move on. It felt like someone woke me up from a nightmare. I continue working to start a new life and that is what I did. I changed my thoughts to be a positive thinker. I saved my money, I also save all the Bitcoin I earned here and stopped myself from gambling a lot of money, I seldom gamble now, and when I play, I just spend small amount of money so when I lost it, it is easy for me to save that amount again through proper earning instead of earning for a glance or for an instance.

Just like you, the mistake of not cashing out after winning big. I think almost every gambler have made this mistake at one stage or the another at a point in gambling. Then I won, instead of me to cash out my winnings , I decided to have a bigger fish and toss all the winnings, but alas, I lost all my coins. That incident thought me one thing, to never to be greedy in gambling. When you have a fair play, and won, do not make the mistaking of tossing all coins immediately. Cash out, be thankful for the one you have, then play again later.

Exactly, sometimes being greedy or too ambitious may lead to our losses. Base to my experienced was the time I fully bet all my winning streak having a huge amount which I feel that time I'm confident to gamble all my money because of all my winning streak but unfortunately it was not. I feel so down on that time which I didn't expect to be happened. Well, after on that I must be conscious enough all my moves and must control my emotions and I already learned my worst mistakes in gambling.

I made my worst mistake few hours ago, i deposited 0.0035btc and within almost a week i turned it to 0.14btc (Almost $1600) and i decided to increase the base bet when i lost all within some few seconds.

This is the problem with gambling because of greediness gamblers always lose money and gambling house always makes money. We are not happy with the amount we make in gambling and always go for more and more profits until we lose our money so it is always good to set some limits for both winnings and losses in gambling. Consider it as a good learning and try to avoid doing same mistake again in gambling.
I think gamblers of modern era are blind or they can’t sense anything because after facing a lot of troubles, they still go for gambling. I salute their patience and addiction because after waiting for several weeks, they gather some good amount of BTCs and instead of withdrawing and investing it in something else which can prove them more valuable, they again go for gambling and lose all the money and return empty handed.

This happen a couple months ago, I was playing a hi-lo and from 10k sats I managed to go far to BTC.01 and I was still not contented and still continue to play but the end was quick and I lost all of it. I can't even move because of disbelief.
This is actually very usual mistake and one of the biggest gambling mistakes players are repeating over and over again.

I hear that voice too in my head and it attracted me to still play and even I lose more money.
You hear...voices in your head?
You should visit a doctor ASAP.

Op, that is I call greed in human and it happen to so many people particularly people who play gambling including my humble self. When you try to win back what you have lost in that process you tend to loose more because at that point good decision are not usually taking when playing gambling.

Not just you almost everyone forgot to withdraw their funds because of the lust that can not be controlled therefore gambling is a place to make money and not suitable for people impatient and lust

This happens to everyone as no one is contented with what they et. this happens every where and thus causing a huge losses to people in gambling. Had you being happy with making the money you would have walked away and invested in altcoin or played the other day or enjoyed yourself with that money, but sadly you lost it.

I think when I was a beginner in gambling I am hot headed gambler, I dont like to lose and will keep on doubling the bet until I win, unfortunately gambling and  anger is not a good combination, lost a lot of amount and become more stressful with gambling, that is the worst moment of my life because of gambling

I think one of my greatest mistake when it comes to gambling is that whenever I lose every two or three consecutive rounds I didn't stop and continue playing believing I can recover from that lose didn't realize that I should stop for my luck is not presence on that day and because of that I loss so much. I think this is everyones mistake that as much as they want to win but their luck was not there it only end up loaibg everything. I think gambling is somewhat a proper timing to your luck
I know that feeling. You gotta fight back the voice that screams inside your brain "come on, double again and we recover!". I started thinking of safety measures during gambling like Setting a Predetermined goal, Depositing only half of Bankroll, etc. because I started in gambling with a pretty good lucky streak, and that set me in a "i'm invincible" mentality from which it was hard to recover and become more careful.


I have this experience too in the past and in that time, I only feel that if I continue to play, maybe I can get my luck so I can win the money but unfortunately it didn't. I hear that voice too in my head and it attracted me to still play and even I lose more money. but that was my bad experience and I don't want to do the same mistake again especially now I don't play gamble too much and only play if I really want to play.

Well, I actually was chasing my losses on a gambling site. It was actually a csgo skins gambling site. I kept of depositing skins until I lost almost everything, which i regretted alot then. I agree with you that you should never try to make up for your loss by gambling as it will make you lose even more, but it is pretty hard to control. So I just quitted gambling after that. I decided if I cant control, just quit it.
I've gambled and won a lot of money in a day. Maybe for you it is not too much, but for me time was very much. I did not have any capital at the time, so I gambled on the money I got from an online job. I figured I got the money I got for free, so it might not matter if I gamble. Whether it was lucky or not, I was winning a lot and I was very excited. I think I can win more money and I'll give it to my parents. But when I wanted to double my money, I lost the gamble and lost all my money. After that, I do not want to gamble anymore, hahaha.

this means the lesson you get here 'you can not gamble'
Well, it should be before you try to gain profit from gambling,
you should know in advance how you can learn the system for online casinos.
if you have got it, the defeat will not come to you

Never chase your loses, Once you make profit cashout. Gambling is like a circle, if you don't know when to stop you'll end up at the starting point Smiley

The worst mistake I did when I was gambling was when I was trying to win back the loss I had when I gambled all my bitcoin and hit the "all in" button and to my surprise I lost all my bet.
So I tried to win it back again and deposited twice the amount I bet the first time around and to my surprise again I lost it all.

It was even the first gambling site I ever tried to play and I was so eager to win back the losses but could never have it back. I never went back to that gambling site ever again.





Maybe the worst would be starting to learn gambling. Since I was a kid I was taught that gambling is not a good habit. When I grew up, I met some friends who loke to gamble and end up adapting their hobby. Now, I find it hard to keep my self from gambling.

in targeting a victory does not need to pursue a big win. simply stop after the game feels unnatural. because if gambling goes on we will only lose a lot and get nothing. because we will not be able to fight edge house. a little profit we can pull and start to move the casino for profit again

My greatest mistake was when I was to place a bet and click the opposite of my decision. That Is instead of me betting that USD/GBP Is going to go up at were it is now in the next one hour but now click that is going to go down and I lose out in that betting. I believe that some of us has experienced this thing some time in our gambling life?

The worst mistake in gambling is placing bets on games that you aren't experienced enough with or you just haven't a decent overall knowledge about that sport , team , card game  or whatever game that needs a bit of knowledge to interact with ( we're not talking here about luck based games such as  slots machines , dice , roulette or anything similar ) .
Knowing the aspects and the "how to's" is very important yet lots of people throw themselves at games that they never heard of and that's really a very dumb move to make .

The worst mistake is nothing but something that we are doing repeatedly. We are going back to the gambling site every single day in hopes that we are going to win back what we have lost in the past when we know for a fact that we are just going to lose money just like how we did in the past. It's like we are reading the same book again and again but we are still hoping that we are going to finally get to see a different ending.

What's funny is that people don't realize that they are committing the worst mistake of their gambling journey every single day. They are always chasing their losses instead of cutting them. We would all want to get more and more profits but gambling is never going to give that because it was made to give profit not to you but to the gambling site owner.
