That's why I shared it here; I feel that some of you may experience the same challenges, and I'd love to hear your ideas or experiences on how to win this battle so we can enjoy gambling.

The first step is identifying your problems and that's the first step to solving a problem and I'm glad you're able to identify the problem and I'm also glad that you're already seeking solutions to the problems.
Everyone has their ways of handling different gambling challenges and the ability to know when to stop and when to keep playing in gambling is one key factor to success and the idea of chasing after losses is another one that leads to gambling addition without people knowing.

Having a gambling budget and sticking to the biggest is one way to stay focused in gambling as it will help you get to your limits.

At first you must seriously work on your emotions then after which you must also learn how to control your taste for money especially when you feels like doubling your money. When you are winning it gives you more courage to keep gambling and when you are losing it saddens you and hence wouldn't want to keep losing maybe you would want to apply the martingale principle to keep increasing your betting size but at then it's wrong because you are only creating more ways for you lose since the fear is already in you and hence may gambling with desperation.

And the most crucial for gamblers is to control emotions, especially when experiencing repeated defeats by making repeat deposits. to be able to control emotions with that requires discipline, plus practice. because if not trained, then someone will have difficulty controlling their emotions. we even often experience, when in a betting session often circumstances make us emotional. either in a winning moment, or experiencing consecutive defeats. even gamblers who have disciplined their gambling, are not immune to losing control. however, the situation sometimes does not always bring bad luck. sometimes, we are given the momentum to return the money that has been lost while getting an unexpected sensation of victory. well, this is gambling with everything that is uncertain. talking about some of the points you said, that's how our psychology is often affected by emotions in gambling situations. so far there is no most effective way that can be applied in general, other than us as responsible gamblers.

Hey, guys! Are any of you emotional gamblers who often lose because you can't control what you feel? When you lose, do you tend to double your bets or chase your losses, driven by a pride that can't accept defeat? Do you consider this a problem? If so, has anyone here been able to solve this kind of problem themselves, and if yes, how did you do it?
Being emotional is not good for gambling at all because when a gambler becomes emotional, his bets are more likely to lose rather than gain. Emotion control is very important, especially for new gamblers. New gamblers become emotional when they initially lose a bet and subsequently increase their bet and bet more to recover past lost bets resulting in more losses. If I lose a bet more than once I try to control myself and. If I can't control myself then of course I keep myself busy with work.

Emotional management is essential not only for betting and casinos but also for everything in your personal life, I always try to follow the teachings of my elders: never make a decision when you are very sad or very happy, wait for things to calm down and take a decision. Rational decision.

We always make wrong choices when we are dominated by emotion... dealing with emotions is one of the ingredients for success.
Emotions made us lose most time, because we lost our bet we won't be happy anymore and because of that most gambler feels depressed and if they don't make a stop decision at that time they might lose again because their minds are no longer concentrated. One reason why one don't have to make any decisions while he or she is angry is because that's the moment you feels like you are doing the right thing whereby you are not. The op is losing because his not concentrating anymore when he's emotionally depressed by his loss.

Only gamble with sports bets many days before the game, you will be more in judgement then just emotionally gambling the odds.   The closer it gets to the actual game being live while betting the more involved and emotional the bets will become.

You dont have to do all extremes in your bets, what you could use instead is to taper your bets.   Reduce the amount you can bet on a game by 20% every day, start at 100% but by the time you add or alter your bets later on only be betting 20% of what you did originally when less emotionally driven by the game.   Unfortunately all solutions probably will involve some self control or at least good planning to your budget used.
That's good that they (these solutions) will be involved, as these are keys to having a good time while gambling! You gave some good advice and a way to improve the discipline of a player, thus ensuring his well-being if your tips are taken into action.
Hopefully, we will always remember that so we don't have to experience a big lose when playing gambling. Although that may difficult for some of us but it is worth to keep trying because that can helps us to reduces our losses in gambling. We must understand that when we becomes emotional, we will gets too deeper in gambling and there will be no way out from gambling except losing all what we have.

Reducing the amount of money to playing gambling is necessary to prevents the lose becomes big and we can avoids the biggest problem in gambling which is addicted to gambling. Many people lose their control in gambling because they becomes too emotional and thinks that they can gets what they wants. If they realizes that, they will not lose much money instead just lose the money they can afford to lose.

Right, it means that the approach to gambling must be really guarded, in the sense that a gambler must really be able to manage emotions and control the following also by limiting their expectations of winning. So far, in my opinion, understanding the following also by realizing what risk is must be really emphasized in the mindset, because by understanding that opportunities are nothing more than possibilities that will not always happen as expected, then I think they will not be too reckless in making every decision.

I am sure that anyone definitely does not want to experience a significant loss, therefore controlling emotions is really the main key so that we can manage our finances well, because if not, of course various impulsive actions will definitely be unbearable, in the sense that they will definitely easily fall into various aggressive actions when they want to try to take revenge for the first defeat they experienced and of course as you said that it is an idea that will ultimately only lead them to a greater amount of loss.

Impulsive decisions can be wrong for most people because they are unable to control themselves excessively. If you keep losing at the casino, you may have a sense of failure that can hurt you more financially, so you should stop gambling. You should remember that every day may not be auspicious for you so it is better to withdraw yourself in adverse luck situations.
It is very important for every person to control himself over time because excessive emotions can cause great harm to you.

Maybe more better for people to stop doing those risky activities when they are mentally unstable. Since even if they are aware about this things there are still chances that they get bothered especially if they are so emotional and cannot think more clearly specially on other things that currently what they do.

Just gamble when they are in good condition or happy since this will give them positive outlook and can decide well depends on the situation occurs to them. We always commit mistakes if we are not mentally present on what we are doing that's why if we are in bad state much better to rest and decide only to gamble if everything is in good shape.

If so, has anyone here been able to solve this kind of problem themselves, and if yes, how did you do it?

I have this problem, and based on my personal experience, I find that sometimes I get challenged but not too greedy because I don't have a problem quitting when I'm winning. However, when I'm losing, that's where my struggle lies.

That's why I shared it here; I feel that some of you may experience the same challenges, and I'd love to hear your ideas or experiences on how to win this battle so we can enjoy gambling.

You know, you can get a lot of advice from different people. Then I will also tell you my opinion. There are people who should not gamble. These are the emotional people you just described. Unfortunately, I understand what you are talking about, when you try to win back a loss, sometimes emotions take precedence over reason and in the end this only leads to a greater loss of money.
To answer your question, I will say, no matter how many opinions you would not have heard, if after a long time nothing changes and you also continue to lose to emotions, then most likely you just need to stop playing.

This is a relief from stress after a difficult situation at work, it is simply a desire to dispel boredom, and also entirely due to the desire to earn money. 
Moreover, gamblers with different motivations and playing styles will have each of these motives. 
I honestly don't consider this for myself as a reason for why I'm gambling. Working is different from gambling; whether I feel stressed or not, it doesn't change my mood about gambling. I just love gambling, and it's been a part of my daily life. I think I would be bored without it. Over all those years of gambling, I have learned a lot, especially the skills in controlling myself. So, whether I win or lose, nothing will change as I will always stay disciplined.

Therefore, we need to listen to ourself. And try to go in and gamble only in a good mood and calm.
Better that way as gambling with problem would only make the problem worst. (Based on my experience)
I don't want to believe that you don't bother when you lose. Of course, you do but instead of you to let your emotions control you, you rather control them yourself. The motives are always there, the thing is that if a person has been gambling for a long time now, i think it is compulsory that he should have built the discipline and ability to control themselves. The reason is because if you relate it down to work there are sometimes when we work and gets so tried or things do not turn so well at work, we feel unhappy but yet we control our emotions so that it won't affect people closer to us or our family at home.

Since I already learned how to be emotionless when it comes to investing, I just simply applied it to gambling. Being emotionless in gambling didn't increase my chances of winning though, but it had help me make better decisions. Being emotionless means not chasing losses. Being emotionless means not depositing furthermore and recover those losses. Being emotionless means making better decisions. You being emotionless will lower your chances of getting stressed and depressed.

Not experiencing emotions is difficult, but a very good skill.  But at the same time, you need to be able to make the right decisions. Have an analytical mind, and most importantly, be diligent and very patient. Often, the calculation of success depends on how a gambler or even a trader is able to see what others cannot see. 
Unfortunately, a mathematical mindset is given either only from birth, or after practice. And this factor is extremely important both in life and in gambling.

It's very hard to be a stone cold bettor right ? I mean , the emotions will flow within you with every bet you make or with every action you make while you betting.

For me , whenever I feel I get emotional with betting , I instantly quit because I know I am about to lose or have bad picks and I've learned my lessons.  Grin
That is the best thing to do as a responsible gambler to quit the game when you begin to feel emotional towards your bet. Emotions plays a major role on controlling our losses.

I remember when I get carried away easily by my emotions when I was an addict, I get more angry when I lose my bet and that spirit of getting back my loss is always there to trigger me to chase my loss and this will continue till my bankroll is empty because I don't want to accept my losses.

That's true! Gambling should bring only positive emotions, it's for spending a sum worth of your time to have some fun. When it transforms into what you had, there is nothing better than to take a step back and spend some time outside, chill, do some other activities, and return with a fresh head.

Now I understand that the same gambler can come to play casino or poker for completely different reasons.

This is a relief from stress after a difficult situation at work, it is simply a desire to dispel boredom, and also entirely due to the desire to earn money. 
Moreover, gamblers with different motivations and playing styles will have each of these motives. 

Therefore, we need to listen to ourself. And try to go in and gamble only in a good mood and calm.
Yes, that's one good reason why a person will become a gambler. Boredom. Stress from work or because there's so much free time especially those who are working from home. To avoid this, the best we can do is find another game where we don't need to pay anything. Free-to-play games MMORPG, or just a simple adventure that would make you busy to avoid gambling.
Others would do something else like finding a side job so that they can make more money and I think that's the best solution to stay away from gambling.

It's difficult to be in a good mood when you are losing, you can stay calm that's for sure but deep inside you are getting mad because you cannot get back the money like the gambling site is cheating and would not even give you anything as an RTP.

I see the point where you can be calmed but deep inside you there's frustration as you lose your hard earned money, there are gamblers who will re-try there chance in adding more money and adding more time to gamble, those who already been caught by their emotions will mostly lose a lot a kind of repeated mistake that can be done when you have a lots of time to spend for your gambling.
Same with you, better to use those free time to do other activities instead of focusing with gambling which most of the time you'll lose your control and brings that urgency to push forward and eat most of your time.

It depends, or what this means is that if you bet on a type of game that really depends on luck, like slots for example, then I think at any time you can win, regardless of whether, for example, you make that decision based on emotion, that means no matter how you go about it. treating gambling activities if basically luck comes at the right time then of course you will also be able to win.

But yes, I also understand that overall emotions always trigger various actions that tend to be aggressive, meaning that the victory I said will only be temporary and in the end you will experience defeat again because your actions are too aggressive due to the encouragement of emotions that are difficult to control. ignored. So of course it is best to gamble in a calm situation or when your mind is clear without experiencing any emotions due to a problem, and also when you are emotional due to losing then of course that is the right time to stop and rest.

Most of those who gamble face such challenges. But even if some can survive there, many fail. Losses in gambling cannot be tolerated by many. After they lose they try to recover the loss as soon as possible and lose all their money. I myself have faced such problem many times but from the moment I realized it, I did not leave for the purpose of recovering the loss. One of the biggest reasons gamblers lose is chasing the losses. When a new gambler loses his money he become crazy trying to recover that loss and loses all his bankroll. People who cannot control their emotions can never expect anything good from gambling. Retaining emotions in gambling is very difficult for the new gamblers. I have tried to control my greed as the only weapon in this battle and have lowered my expectations from here because of which I have been able to control my emotions as well.

There is also a way of hitting the gym. You won't be bored if you are getting yourself in shape and tired too much to be angry or even happy Wink
