Topic: When I'm emotional, I LOSS! - page 28. (Read 5887 times)

It is normal for someone to lose control of their emotions when gambling because of the results they get from gambling. But if he can have good self-control, his emotions will not be provoked and he can still use gambling as he should. He also won't try to gamble excessively because he knows it will only give him more losses. He will know how to keep his emotions stable and if he feels his emotions starting to rise, he will immediately stop gambling and leave the casino so he doesn't lose control of himself. By keeping their emotions stable, they can remain aware of the conditions and situations they face when gambling so that they will not make the wrong decisions. He will also definitely be able to stop his gambling game before things turn bad. He will not want to follow his ego or lust to continue gambling, especially if the situation has started to change. He should stop gambling and rest to reduce his emotional tension rather than continue gambling.

Their judgement is impaired, some of our human emotions like sadness or frustration and other have the potential to impair judgment. Meaning as gamblers, we may act impulsively without thinking and rational reason. And as a result, we take more risk without considering the bad potential outcomes, i.e losing more money that we should have.

So it's very hard to have this emotions, however, we are all humans, it's part of us that's why self-control is very important as well. If not, every gambling session we have, we might take that we are unlucky because we are not winning. But if we take a closer look, our emotions are interfering with the processing of information. And so there could be factors that we didn't see or fail to consider like for example in sports bettings as we don't look on numbers and statistics and just go out and put our bets.

Definitely when someone is emotionally unstable they tend to lose in gambling activities. This is usually due to the fact that when someone is emotionally drained they can easily make wrong decisions and when it comes to gambling such wrong decisions can cause a great deal of loss.
When some people are emotionally unstable they may stake too high or too low causing their winning chances to drop. However these chances of winning can still be increased in games where one can input both calculations and experience. Unfortunately an emotionally unstable person may end up making mistakes In those areas too.

Self awareness is another thing that's not considered by most people before going into gambling they are just carried away by the excitement of going to have fun or been entertained and to make money aswell so they wouldn't pay attention to the fact that they easily get depressed whenever the loose so much or they have psychological effects on them.

They just allow their selves to be carried away by the excitement and just want to have fun and make money but at the end of the day the story comes out as something else a s they will regret and blame it on gambling meanwhile they were actually just carefree and didn't bother to do a self check because they at that point felt like it wasn't necessary but when they win they don't get to remember how they felt when they lost . Mentality has a lot to do with how well you can gamble and still maintain a healthy habit as it affects even the physical because it's proceeds from the mental that keeps the physical either in a good or bad shape.

Ok. Understand the reason why you said it's up to them. However, maturity is not about age, it's about being in the stage of accepting the facts about things no matter how bad they look and making the best out of it with integrity.
Assume, they have the maturity, is the maturity they have enough to handle the gambling buzz? These are the things that play a huge role in the life of gamblers.

Glad about what you said here. Sadly a lot of gamblers understand this fact but they find it hard to follow the process and the same things applied in crypto trading which also leads to the loss of a lot of traders.
What also pains about their wrong decision is the negativity it creates about gambling in the minds of people who see their level of addiction.

Setting a budget is a good way but one doesn't necessarily have to do that to stay safe from getting driven by emotions. All one needs to do is to have a clear mindset and perspective about gambling because people who consider gambling a way to earn money will usually become victims of their emotions and then lose everything eventually. So one needs to take gambling as a fun and entertaining activity and just try their luck with it without having a lot of expectations.

When you gamble to earn money through gambling, you will get easily emotional once you lose some money and the urge to recover that money will make you gamble more and increase your bets which will eventually make you lose everything you have.

One of the main issues on most gamblers is that they do really tend to push something which is impossible like being a constant winner on which we know that it cant really be something to happen in gambling. Yes, you might be able to win up some bets but doesnt mean that it would really be sustaining until the very end. We cant really be able to deny out that when it comes to losing
situation then emotion would be the main thing that would react out on which not all people would really be that good when it comes on controlling their temper. This is why people do
mess up because most people couldnt be able to control themselves and able to act accordingly or what are the things that must be done.

I don't think you will lose all your capital in one stupid move. Maybe you are also maximizing your stakes? One thing I notice in gambling is that when we are about to increase our capital, the results will then change from positive to negative. It's like they are manipulative.

Well, what do we expect? That would be an easy money for us if they will only allow us to have a gameplay like that. We think we are wise but we don't know that the house is more wiser than us. Don't blame the game because it's not its fault but just try to maintain your temper and betting size and the gameplay are also going to be the same. Of course, the chance of losing is still there. So learn how to quit.

I understand what you mean here, you tend to point more to the negative perspective of gambling in the eyes of society in general and indeed this is a fact because most gamblers gamble in the wrong way and understanding which makes them eventually stuck in the downturn and experience the bad effects of gambling, it is quite reasonable to say that society including their family or relatives will have a bad perspective on them even though they basically have a good responsibility in gambling that can keep them awake. For the issue of emotion, the maturity factor is integrated in them so that is the reason why I said that it is up to themselves on how they address and treat their gambling, and for the issue of understanding it is another thing that they have generated from the first time they came to gambling and that does have an influence and relevance on what kind of approach they will take on their gambling activities.

Yes that's right, for the issue of whether they can be responsible or not all of that really depends on the understanding that they bring from the beginning about gambling, if they basically think that gambling is a place to earn then obviously I would not be able to say that they can be responsible gamblers because in the end what they will do is act excessively because of the encouragement of the hope of earning. Responsible gamblers are those who have the right understanding especially about gambling which is nothing more than a game of probability in the sense that there is nothing that can ensure they can win at the end of the session, therefore responsible gamblers will always carry a small budget amount because they know that there is no certainty there and that is a healthy and more recommended approach that leads to precautionary measures rather than focusing too much on the chances of winning.

Yes, the problem all goes back to them but gambling can't be excluded because their friends and family that see the negative impact of their addiction won't see gambling as a game of chance, they will see it as something negative.
Having said that, the good, or bad their emotion made lead them to does not solely depend on them. Sometimes it depends on their level of maturity, understanding, and the company they keep.

It all goes back to the awareness of the genuine concept of gambling and how they accept it and stand firm on tips to gamble profitably.

Sometimes we just need to study ourselves and understand the kind of nature we have and know the weakness as well we may be having towards gambling, some will make huge loss because they are not guided by the way they gamble, we can not use the physical approach on how we see things appearing and take them as the direct means of of how we are playing our bets when gambling, things doesn't work like that in so many ways, we need both physical and mental approach to find the accuracy needed towards how are expected to gamble.

Being emotionally down can affect a gambler in the most negative ways, this is because at that point you tend to lose contact with realities and at that, you will make the most wrong decisions, which will eventually lead you to lose in the process.


Although, losses can happen at any point in time but then we have to always be in control of our emotions because it's only by so doing you will be able to make accurate game analyses that can lead us to our winnings.

We are just humans and its normal that we do have emotions plus we dont really like on losing money on which this would really be your main experience on the time you would really be doing gambling.

It would really be just that natural that we would really be that emotional on the time that we are really that dealing with gambling. Who does really like on losing money?
It would really be just that normal that we could be having those reactions on the moment we do lose. Same goes for winning on which getting happy on the moment it would be happening.
If you do find yourself that being too impulsive and highly reactive towards gambling on the sense that it does give out that kind of negative impact towards you then it would
be just that wise that you should really be continuing such activity.

Problems like this are self-inflicted, the result of not being able to control your emotions will make the number of losses even greater. This situation is very often experienced by gamblers, losing is one part that gamblers definitely feel, so when the situation is unfavorable, emotions need to be controlled.

When a gambler is happy when he wins, he must also be prepared to face defeat. Emotions really need to be controlled to maintain safety, no matter how much you try to increase the bet to chase losses, you remain in the same position. It might be better to stop, then come back when your emotional level has stabilized.

I think for that problem it all goes back to each of them, like I said before that everyone has emotions in themselves and for the problem of whether those emotions will influence themselves to lead to something that tends to be good or vice versa it all depends on themselves, and like you said about someone who has responsibility they actually won't be a responsible gambler when they are already in the session in the sense that they can't put their emotions aside for that problem I think it goes back to how they address and treat their gambling activities. If they basically put their hopes on winning in gambling then I honestly believe that they will not be able to put aside their emotions when they lose at the end of the session, we must understand that gambling is a game of probability which means that it is nothing more than a game of "possibility" meaning that you can win and can anytime.

Back again as I said that gamblers who will not be able to put aside their emotions when they lose are those who put their hopes on winning so it is difficult for them to accept defeat at the end of the session which ultimately makes them emotional and act out of control. So the point is that whether someone is responsible or not all depends on how they respond to gambling activities, if basically their goal is nothing more than just for fun then obviously losing will not be too much of a problem and this can minimize the occurrence of emotions in the end.

Well, when it comes to gambling and everything that has to do with money, everyone could be emotional irrespective of age, though age is also a factor here, but it is not a yardstick to measure such. This is why you will see so many younger people who will handle situations better than older people, it all depends on our wisdom and maturity and I do not think that age is a good measure of that judging by what we see around us daily. Also, the financial freedom and capacity of the gambler matter to how he would react. If the gambler is so bucks up and gambles with money that means nothing to him, I can assure you that it will not affect him psychologically as much as it would affect the person that bet with all that he had or almost all that he had, which is senseless.

Regardless, the main issues in gambling that gamblers are always fighting all the time are greed, fear, revenge and anxiety. All these and more are under the context of emotion, they all have to be fought for the gambler to be okay. This has to be specially noted by gamblers and work towards, especially the discipline, which is so crucial in gambling.

This is just the truth of everything,  when one is playing gambling in pain and with emotion the brain won't be able to function well, with this effect one won't be able to think well that is while when one is feeling so emotional the relate at which loses occurs increase.  In the rules of paying gambling it is very advisable for one to stop when one is not feeling happy about the outcome in gambling.  Still playing gambling with emotion to recover loses is not a guarantee to get back what have been lose.

Playing gambling with emotion is a decision any gambler shouldn't go into, because it get things to become worse.  Continue playing when one is emotional will increase lose , it will make one to be more emotional.  So it is a wrong decision anyone should go into just gain back money that have been lose in gambling.

Certainly, excessive emotionality causes us to make mistakes not only in gambling but in every aspect of our lives. Knowing that having a character that cannot control your emotions may be a small support to prevent possible mistakes but it cannot fully help. On the other hand, I think that the word "emotions" shouldn't be known only as being affected by certain events because greed is actually an emotion and triggers us to make decisions that we may regret especially in gambling. Therefore, controlling the feeling of greed is absolutely of great importance when gambling.

Being able to set certain limits for oneself in gambling is an emotion that is very difficult to control because greed constantly triggers the violation of this rule. For this reason, individuals who cannot control their emotions in gambling should both impose financial restrictions in order not to regret themselves and also be able to control their emotions such as greed very well.

Lolz, before putting up this comment, did you try to first find out what emotion is, and what depression is? Because from what I've seen here, you and some other persons actually don't know that, emotion is like a general name, or title for every human feelings, while depression is actually a type of emotion, there are no way you compare the two because they are exactly both the same.

Trying to differentiate emotion and depression is like trying the differentiate between cryptocurrencies and bitcoin, such a thing makes no sense at all, since cryptocurrencies is a general name or title for all internet money, and bitcoin on its own is one of the internet money, which makes a cryptocurrency, or one the cryptocurrencies.

Depression is one the emotions humans feel, or go through, so, trying to say the difference between emotion and depression in gambling is absolutely wrong, for depression is an emotion, just same way that bitcoin is a cryptocurrency.

I think all gamblers must have felt or experienced a situation where they were controlled by emotions which in the end led them to a lot of pressure along with a significant amount of defeat, emotions are something that exists in humans and this is something natural but maybe there are some people who still have good control, and usually in my opinion the danger is for those who have a personality that is easily provoked even with trivial things which in the end it is clear that they will experience emotions more often which can trigger many bad effects.

Sometimes gamblers who have a good approach by having self-control along with some other restrictions are not infrequently one of the people who experience the adverse effects of gambling due to emotions that cannot be completely avoided, and I think what is needed here is to apply firmness in terms of awareness because by maintaining awareness of gambling which is nothing more than a game of chance, then with acceptance of this fact I think emotions will not dominate too much.
