When does the moment come when the gambler loses control? My answer is after winning big just like yours after winning big and you had to loose even only once sometimes it triggers you to do more and more.
That's one of the answers because this question is an open ended sort of question, someone can lose control when they are also losing and still continue play not paying attention to the idea of losing more money than they should at that session. Another moment of losing control is being mad or hysterically angry at the game because you tell yourself and believe that the game isn't giving you any break or that the game is purposefully making you lose which is kind of stupid if you finally calm down but during that hysterical moment of losing of control, that seems to be the right thing. Another moment of losing control is thinking that everything's out to get you and that all the games in the casino is rigged when you are losing.

What do you think about it?

Well, I think both when a gambler starts losing and winning. Simply because humans are forever discontented, one could make a huge win, but because he wanted more he thinks he could win everything or at least add a little more to what he already has, so he will continue gambling. That's losing control their, losing control of the moment that he could have left the casino because that was one of the few moments where he coped up with the loses he made since day 1 of his gambling.
While the other who loses everything, is obviously the ones who's gonna be a mess up, a total lose of control. He wouldn't have ended up in that situation if has not lost control along the way.

Irresponsible gamblers only have money, money and money in their heads, the aim of gambling is only one, namely winning to make money. Gambling is not a scheme to make money easily, there are always challenges in it. They will play casually when they have a big win, but will lose control when they lose their money. Gamblers will be addicted when they win big, while when they lose continuously, it is called losing control because there is a desire to win more to recover the losses they have spent.

When does the moment come when the gambler loses control? My answer is after winning big just like yours after winning big and you had to loose even only once sometimes it triggers you to do more and more.

Or it will be heavily triggered if you have a lose streak never had single win and your budget for gambling is almost empty. I think this happens to everyone too

There is an opinion that the greatest dependence on gambling is formed at the moment of a big win. The player understands that money can be earned LIKE THIS. This is a fairly common opinion.
I agree with what's said above, but a lose too can trigger one to get hooked as some people just hate losing and this could lead to chasing losses and probably break your bank .

But I believe that the greatest dependence on gambling appears at the moment of loss, when the player admits in his head the idea that he could earn so much. He is disappointed, but wants to recoup. It is at this moment that the desire comes to play again and again in order to return to the previous state.

What do you think about it?
Agreed!

Gambling is honestly complicated, you win you feel like you can make this money a million times and get rich  Tongue You lose you are out to get your money back because you think you will change strategy and this time get the Casinos and make a profit too... gambling is Soo hard!!

Most gamblers are often trapped in a situation like that where when they lose they tend to play again to recover their losses and not think about their money. The result is predictable that most of them end up losing and more extreme they become bankrupt and sell all their assets.
That's why it's important to be a responsible gambler who can understand their condition and not lose control when they lose.

I agree with the losing and recouping part because that need for recovery would always put you in the same situation and push you in a greedy way, which is always in favor of the casino. If you can't remove the idea, then it could quickly develop into an addiction and eventually become a problem because most gamblers go through countless losses. The idea of earning endlessly through gambling probably depends because when i'm in that losing situation, I usually expect the worst from my next set of bets.

Many gamblers have many trigger point to be honest. But commonly it’s often seen that, after losing a large portion of the bankroll, the gamblers, losses control and go all in with the remaining balance to cover the losses. But at this point of time, they should have slowed a bit and could have analysed to bet further. But this is the time, it is often seen that you bet blindly without thinking the outcome. It’s very hard to control ourselves, when the hard earned money vanishes in seconds.

It cannot be denied that when we experience a loss there will be an urge to bet bigger to cover the previous loss if we win the next bet. But sometimes this works and sometimes this actually makes us experience more losses. But that's only sometimes. Well sometimes I also lose control in this matter. But because it's for fun so sometimes I don't care. Because I only use limited funds. So I can still meet my living needs and can still save and invest. But there are times when I get a big win then I become more greedy and want more so I make a bigger bet. But after I thought about it, it turned out that I always lost control when I was having some problems in my life. So I try to forget it with this.
When we are at loss then the main thing that we would really be having in mind is on how to cope up with those losses or simply trying out to break even or taking it back or simply we are really that chasing losses
and this what makes the situation gotten more worst is that you cant really be able to make yourself that able to control and these what makes things ended up on being messy. Loosing moment is the most
common scenario or condition on which most gamblers would really be that losing off their control. Somewhat it is also that possible when we are really that winning because when greed kicks in then we would be also
losing our control specially with our winning amounts on which you would be enveloped by your greed on which it would really be causing for it for you to play even further.

On the time that you would lose control then you would surely lose. This is why you should really be that careful when it comes on dealing with gambling.
You would really be finding yourself at great trouble and risks if you are really just that too careless on what you are doing.

If you are gambling just for fun for sure you can still control or limit yourself whether you win or lose. But if you are aiming to profit, for sure both of the scenarios given by the OP would eventually end up in the same outcome. If you win, you have the mindset of you have extra winning money as a reason for you to keep gambling, but if you lose, you have the reason to continue by trying to recover your loss, which can lead to addiction cause it would be a cycle. Plus if you started gambling without having a plan such as stopping at a $100 loss or win, for sure you would keep continuing gambling, don't hesitate to take profit, cause isn't that your goal in gambling, is to earn money? Gamblers also tend to lose their control when one of the two starts to act for every round, which is their mental and emotional, you would be pressured to never stop as you can't control both.
I agree with you that gambling itself depends on people playing it. If they feel satisfied with the results they have achieved they will immediately stop and take whatever profit they get, but if they are not satisfied and think they can win more then they will continue gambling until get satisfactory results but that doesn't mean they can stop immediately, they feel that luck is still on their side, so sometimes gamblers who are filled with joy after winning won't easily stop unless they can control it themselves.

while gamblers who are covered in losses try to recover their losses by carrying out gambling activities continuously hoping they can recover the money they have lost so in conclusion gambling has different purposes, they use gambling depending on what they get if they can control their gambling properly. well then events like "losing control" will be handled by themselves.

I think a gambler loses control of his or her gambling habits when they begin to look and give excuses for every time they choose to gamble irresponsibly. This excuses may small even without the gambler noticing, and become overwhelming that they play in the gamblers head whenever they are about to make a wrong gambling decision or have already made the decision.

When a gambler starts permitting these excuses, he or she is already loosing control.

I'd say it also comes on greatest losses. People will want to recoup whatever they lost on gambling platforms, which will push them to play more and spend more in hopes of getting back what was lost. They will lose self-control due to this drive, which is extremely unhealthy and not something that is recommended for anyone to do.

I highly agree, that gamblers often loss control when they start a revenge gambling.  That is when they don't mind about everything and want to show the house that they will be the winner at the end.  Control is loss when a player is too focus on chasing loses and chasing win  making them forget about everything and only focus on his aim.

Winning big also influences people the same. They think that since it's easy to make money this way, they will just continue on this path and all is well. That's not the case unfortunately, and luck isn't always guaranteed when it comes to gambling. You may be enjoying a lot of money due to some wins today, but it isn't guaranteed that you'll be enjoying the same wins the next time.

Everything in gambling when we lose the ability to make a sound decision is the time when the gambler loses control.

The moment when the gambler get too over confident on himself in a particular bet he thinks is too sure to loose, another one is on the occasion whereby they have to borrow money for gambling because they can't afford to and yet miss the bet and loose the game, lastly is when a gambler is so addicted to gambling and have no priority for other things than gambling and yet they can't show any proof for it.

I'd say both really. It depends on what the mindset of a player is at the time of the win/loss. Most of the time, it adapts to a mindset where they should just continue since they can still win/win more, so really, it's more like both. A winner would gamble more since he's, well, a winner. He can win more, so why not? A loser will try to play more to win since he already lost, they'd think it can only go up from there no? Eh that's not really how math goes though.

But both mindsets come from a desiring/greedy mind. You wouldn't really entertain the idea of betting more even if you've already lost your entire monthly salary in one session if you weren't greedy really.

Not only in gambling, I think anything that has winning and losses in it, we humans find it very difficult to overshadow the feelings of it to put under our control. We always intend to gamble more to our satisfaction or dissatisfaction as the case may be(winning or losses) until we find a reason not to again at the moment.

That's why you would find some gamblers desire to gain profits no matter how little it is from their gambling involvement for the day. So whenever moments of loss or wins begin to kick into their bets, they find it hard to resist it but have the urge to recover or bet more from their losses or wins which they end up losing badly than they are unexpected to because they want to recoup their losses or being greedy.
"Desire", "Greed" if those two combines then that's when gamblerd lose their control and beyond their limit and boundaries, desire as they gamble and earn some they will desire more and more because it gives them the thrill and excitement and also money of course, greed, even they earn some quite an amount they will want more hoping that they can double or triple it. Sad reality but that is the nature of humans, they tend to want more then what they get and what they need which we know where it will get them, as a result they could suffer or fortunate, but if they for instance become very luck it will not stop them from betting more as they have more money. That is something that we can't fix in humans, and of course, for gamblers, unless they fix it by themselves, the only thing that could stop them is themselves.

I think for me, it's more on when you experience that losing streak and then you may want to comeback again and again and to recoup. So like in 2 days of gambling, well yeah, you win some, but it's not enough for you. So obviously, you will go back and try your luck again and see if you can comeback and win or continue with that losing streak. So naturally, we all know that the odds are not going to be in your side, the longer you play.

So you loses all control that you have, your decision is clouded and all you want to think is to play and chase and hope that you are going to win.

But definitely that will not be the case for the majority of us. As compare to winning, maybe you may stop for a day or two and just enjoy the money or maybe you can even think that you will not play again because it's very hard to replicate that success.

everything you say here is completely true, when someone loses gambling then the only thing on their mind is trying hard to recover the capital they have, accepting defeat when gambling is not easy, especially if your income is really low, that's why always set a budget in Every gambling activity you do, don't do anything stupid by using your savings or emergency money to continue gambling, you are just wasting your time because when you try hard to return your capital, then it will always be difficult to achieve success.

Chasing losses is very common among gamblers, either old or new and this is happening because not all gamblers have a way of making money, they scope around for some money and go back to the casino, when people chases money this way just know that they don't have a lot going on in their lives, they are living hand to hand or it's also possible that they are making too less money.

If you are making too less money from your job you should be risking too less on gambling, $1 is something you should afford to lose but they won't, the reward that $1 will bring them won't be life changing, they are greedy and jobless at the same time.

You can love gambling or the sports games that you bet on but know that the games doesn't love you back, bet responsibly or not at all, this is the right way when gambling regardless of how much you are making.

Such gamblers always find it difficult to be responsible gamblers. They spend most of their time trying to turn gambling into a full time job. By participating extra hours, gambling with the little money they've left. They'll go to gamble with borrowed money and when they're not winning, instead of halting the game, that's when the eagerness to gamble more erupts. Relating them with what Op has on his thread, you'd see that they're those that lose control when they're losing. Don't know if they'll be greedy enough not to take their win immediately they win. Because, it could a golden opportunity. As they're aware about the next result when they continue playing games. Most gamblers looking for quick money don't need to test another luck, after seeing a significant win. Maybe in their next gambling session, they can increase a little bit the amount of money to wager. The problem about such gamblers also include, causing harm to their family and society, by wasting resources. Since they have in mind from the onset that gambling is the only way of getting their daily bread. They can waste family money on gambling. I wonder if they don't care about feeding with the money, instead of trying to multiply the money in gambling. In a nutshell, your response, also contributes to the fact that in Op's question, it has to do with the situation of the gambler. Not everybody would lose control, when they're losing or vice versa. A responsible gambler, will definitely think about his decision, whether win or lose.
