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 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.

Better that way as gambling with problem would only make the problem worst. (Based on my experience)

I agree here with you! Gambling shouldn't become anybody's main source of income (as it's nearly impossible and isn't the point of it). It should be perceived as a hobby or a way to get some adrenaline and good emotions along. It is also a good way to become more disciplined as time goes by.

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

Truly Discipline plays a major role gambling but most gamblers at some point have literally neglected it to the point they don't even consider it because they have been let in the delusion that they are in control and knows what ever it is they are doing so their hobby turns out a just random selections that later causes them some money and they some how turn addicts in a way that turns out detrimental to them. Decision making both in gambling and the investment sphere of everything is very vital and pivotal like you have you have stated and its a very import aspect which if properly considered, both a gambler and an investor gets to do much better in all that they do.

That's the truth, if you are disciplined in your gambling then you can control your emotions. and at least you have a strong defense to keep yourself away from addiction.
being very emotional in gambling is not something good. but it can happen to anyone even with good playing discipline. we know a person's situation will never be good forever. then we have to determine our self-control well to decide whether we want to play or not. If you are not in a good mood, or your mind is distracted by busy work or other matters, never force yourself to open a position in a gambling game.

Indeed. Win or lose, it brings different emotion that can influence a gambler to commit a decision based on what he/she feel. It's a human nature to feel that way and understandable since gambling is an exciting activity because there's a money involved that can make a gambler win huge if he/she is fortunate. Thus, it's not surprising if many of us have this desire of making money thinking it is easy.

Anyway, we're the only one who can control ourselves hence the effect of gambling on us will depend on what kind of gambler we are especially when it comes to handling losses.

The last paragraph is a golden one! Discipline plays such a pivotal role in gambling. If you let your emotions win, it turns from a simple hobby and game to an addiction, where you always chase something that won't happen with you being in a state like that. Making decisions while having a cold head on your shoulders can make wonders both in the investment sphere as well as in gambling, so I applaud you for the experience that you shared here.

Whenever there's a problem with a gambler, I always say one word that can describe the possible solution for their problems. What is it? DISCIPLINE.

A disciplined gambler will not be an emotional one because he knows the consequences of being an emotional gambler. A disciplined gambler will know that being emotional when you're gambling will not benefit you at all. An emotional gambler has a higher chance to lose their money and lose even more money because there's a chance that they might deposit even more whenever they loss their first deposit. Like you, I've been an emotional gambler when I'm still a newbie, and I lost my capital because of wrong decisions and wrong bets.

Obviously when you’re gambling you should be of clear mind. Irrational emotions and feelings fan lead you to make stupid decisions that can lose you money.

Only ever gamble when you’re calm and not suffering from any RL stress or anxiety.

That's right, and in most cases I'm sure that it's emotions that ultimately always lead a gambler to a much worse situation which generally means losing all the money they have at that time, and also of course emotions are something that really can trigger various impulsive actions that should be avoided as you said, which ultimately indirectly lead to very significant regret.

Basically, as we often hear from some of our friends who are here, stopping at the right time is always recommended, or what this means is that the ability to stop at the right time must be possessed by a gambler, because that is the only way a gambler will not falling into or being carried away by the atmosphere at that time. So in my opinion, the first step that must be prepared is to understand first that these emotions can lead us to a much worse situation, and second is to know when is the right time to gamble and when is the right time to stop, such as when you are have other problems in your life then of course never touch gambling at that time, or when you are running a session and you feel emotional because of a loss for example then of course you have to realize that it is the right situation to stop and take a break.

And don't gamble when you are under the influence of liquor, Lol. I just had one recently, there was a birthday party and I got intoxicated that I decided to play online games, but in matter of minutes my $200 was swept to me like that. Grin

.

So waking up is very bad for me, as when I'm sober I'm thinking that did I do to lose that quick. So I comeback the next fight, fully positive that I can recoup everything, having a clear mind. And yeah, I did, I had one of the best runs I had in slot machines and my favorite roulette. I guess I was just lucky that I recover everything that I lost when I was emotional + liquor.

I totally agree. Liquor is a bad friend to play games with, he won't judge, but he also wouldn't be helpful at all Grin

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?

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 are not alone in this, most gamblers are also struggling with this, it's hurts when you lose especially when you worked hard to get that money, it almost feels like your setting those money on fire or throwing it out of the window..But you took the risk that's why it's a gamble, when you start feeling emotional due to losses try as much as possible to quit for that day or for a long time, because decisions made under the influence of emotions are most likely irrational, you would forget about everything else except chasing what you have lost till everything you've worked hard to get is gone..self control is key

Our emotions can lead to wrong decision making on what to do next when gambling. This is why it is good that a gambler only use the amount of money that he can afford to lose in order to it not to affect his emotionally, because he can let go of such amount.

The best thing to do if you are getting emotional like you said is to stop gambling so that you don't incur losses since you are not gambling with your free mind. Gambling is not a do or die thing that if we don't gamble we will not be normal and that is why quitting at that moment when you are emotional is the best.

Maybe OP just put together two facts and blame emotions for loosing, however, he feel different emotions and cant blame them for loosing. Like if OP feels happy, he also looses. Emotions are distracting from the game, that is true, but I cant say there is a 100% connections between loosing and emotions. I think the problem here is simple, chasing losses. All I can do is to suggest OP to take a pause from gambling, or change attitude to a more entertainment side.

That's right! You don't have to continue playing if you lost a bit of your sum and it seems that you as well have to return it in that same moment. Sometimes things don't go your way and that's it, the best course of action would be to relax a bit, have a good time outside, become free of your emotions (bad especially), and return fresh to have a good time, rather than being angry at everything surrounding you.

Secondly, you know that even in almost all gambling casino or others, it's always written to gamble responsible, but most gamblers don't adhear to that warning, and we mostly gets emotional when we gamble with what we can't afford to lose, so if we can gamble with only what we can afford to lose, we wouldn't be emotional in the first place, am saying this because I have had my own fair share of my own experience when gambling emotionally, you will start making stupid calls, because at that point, firstly you can't afford to lose the money you stake with and it's a do or die affair to you, so in essence is that it's very important to gamble with an amount you can afford to lose, so that you won't be emotional in the first place.

Being emotional when it comes to gambling has no much to do with the amount of money you use to gamble. It doesn't always matter whether it's little or much money. You can gamble with the amount you can afford to lose and still be emotional. The secret is that being emotional has always led to more lose which majority of gamblers are aware of but they normally assume that things might change in the next round until they realize that they have spent every penny and nothing change.

Although, when you gamble with little amount of money you will would probably be less emotional than when you use amount that you're not ready to lose. The urge to recover that money will definitely kick in and you might attempt to make another trial. Sincerely, emotion can not be entirely do away with but at least we can minimize it to barest if one can control himself.

Hello bro, it's a everyday thing that occurs mostly among gamblers, and you aren't the only one experiencing such, so stop feeling sorry for yourself if you are doing such, you know that we as individuals, if we can stick to the purpose of gambling, we wouldn't be emotional, and saying this because gambling is what we should be doing for fun, not a do or die affair.

Secondly, you know that even in almost all gambling casino or others, it's always written to gamble responsible, but most gamblers don't adhear to that warning, and we mostly gets emotional when we gamble with what we can't afford to lose, so if we can gamble with only what we can afford to lose, we wouldn't be emotional in the first place, am saying this because I have had my own fair share of my own experience when gambling emotionally, you will start making stupid calls, because at that point, firstly you can't afford to lose the money you stake with and it's a do or die affair to you, so in essence is that it's very important to gamble with an amount you can afford to lose, so that you won't be emotional in the first place.
