We experienced unexpected events or moments in gambling like this one, you are calling it off a day in a session then you're suddenly on a winning streak thinking that it's your time to get back what you've lost will you go or will you stop and come back the next day.

I'm sometimes tempted to continue but I know you cannot beat the house, so most of the time I just call it a day and just wished that tomorrow or next time it's my lucky day. What about you what's your take.

I have been many times in the event when I have lost a lot of money as I was chasing bonus round in some slots.Once I lost everything before getting the bonus round not once I immediately quit and think to not get back in gambling.Then a few days or a couple of weeks pass without gambling and I think to myself maybe I did the wrong thing to quit as the bonus round maybe was just behind the corner so I get back trying again and sometimes I win this way.However in both cases I have learned to control myself and in both cases I quit gambling whichever the case,win or lose,this has helped me to not dive deep down in the dark areas of addiction.

Ahh yes, a lot of times. I thought that my luck has finally turned for the better only to be shut down a couple of minutes later. That's why I don't 'push' my luck very often because it always ends up in disappointments if I tried to play for the win even though I know that it's certainly an L in the end. When something feels good all of a sudden, especially if your luck suddenly turned, stop while your ahead, and call it a day.

I did many different choices and had different results. It happened that I was losing and kept going until i finally won most of it back. I t happened that I kept going thinking I'd be able to make it back and lost more until I run out of money on the site and just didn't feel like sending more just to keep playing. You never know what's gonna happen when you choose to keep playing and you can always quit but that big win or big loss can be waiting in the next game.

Yes, I lost a lot of time, a lot of money in gambling. And with the loss, I vowed never to gamble again. And I've deleted my gambling site accounts a many times. But gambling never left me. I came back to gambling again after exactly 2-1 days. And I have won a lot. Now gambling is in the blood.  No human can survive without blood.  It is difficult for gamblers to survive without such gambling

Nothing new really. It's an average experience for your average joe who partakes in gambling regularly. And it's nothing odd either, nor is it wrong. Wanting to take back what we think was originally ours  (in reality it isn't anymore since we lost it to the casino) is a rather normal mindset, especially if we consider how this thing we think of is well, money. Sometimes it's a great experience since we're able to take it back, sometimes it's just worse than hell.

As others have mentioned I also lose more money in gambling, sometimes I also win in a row after my balance runs low and of course, I will continue to play the game until it recovers but if there is another loss in a few rounds then I will leave and come back for the next day Again, winning streaks are indeed difficult for us to find but it is my opportunity that must be continued, even I always think whether this will come again?

Countless how many times the loss is obtained, but as with gambling, we must remain controlled and as healthy as possible with the simple logic of playing in controlled conditions. Putting forward the desire to get a bigger bonus profit in fact made me not really in a state of self-control. Little by little learn not to fall every day. Reduce the betting schedule once a week. Until it got to the point where I really just entertained myself.

If you know you can not beat the house then why continue to play, don't get me wrong gambling should be for fun and anything outside from that is a fast way to becoming addicted because you will be trying hard to recover from previous losses and before you know it you begin to do the unimaginable things just to keep your foot on the edge of making quick winz. This is probably not a good idea if you feel like quitting why not take a walk for some time before running back to try your luck just play to have fun.

Sounds like greed speaking, and if not put in check can cost you all your earnings for that day. I know it is usually a cross road deciding at that point if to continue or call it quits for the day, but it is usually more responsible to take earnings for that day. This shows self control and is a sign that your gambling habit has not affected your decision making process.

If continuing the game can get lucky winning streaks, then it's not wrong to continue the round as long as you don't increase the bet high, and I agree that if you lose more than 3x rounds in the next game then it's time to get out of the game and enjoy the winnings to have fun with friend.


The experience of consecutive wins at gambling will never be experienced in the next game at any time, the chances of getting consecutive wins are the same as trying to get the jackpot, so there is no hope for the most consecutive wins for the next game.

It once occur when I lost it all in lottery, all that's left in my account are just few satoshis not even more than $5, I'm about to call it a day but will try to bet them all in one roll of a dice and then suddenly I'm in a winning steak. It boost my luck to go back to win what i lost in blackjack once again and then lose it all  again. It just extend my day.

Luck is not always there and sometimes when it comes I just take advantage of it to carry on to some extent. If you managed to win today's $2K bet from $200 capital then there's no harm in trying to keep betting for some $$$ just to try some more luck. We never know what the maximum win of the day will be if we don't try, but you should stop when you feel it's time.

It's a little greedy to keep betting after you've won something that seems big, but it's okay if you have a limit on going out and coming back the next day. It's just about a lucky day but you should consider stopping and enjoying the win.

Every time I gamble my objective is once I hit a good shot in a single game I will stop playing and this call for a day because I know not all the time has a good profit of course this is the time we become too much greedy that we want to earn more. If you have self-awareness and consciousness you can make control yourself when is your limit already always set a plan if you have a lot of money to wage and do not interfere with the amount go for the endless game but if not make a plan.

It happens to me most of the time but as much as possible, i try to control myself not to be tempted because i know the feeling that you'll lose another bucks, hoping you never chase for your loss. And i really think that's the best thing we can do, otherwise we'll left the house pennyless which is really bad if you're a family man. I do gamble but i make sure i'm only using my extra funds, and once they're lose, i think better call it a day or you may regret it later.

Yes, this has happened to me several times,for the past weeks, I play some games in the casino and many bonuses that have been lost. This made me make a decision to reduce my betting schedule . After all, improving control over yourself is an important skill in gambling!!! so we must have a sense of control over the game. This will make you not to fall at the wrong time. Reduce your betting schedule once a week, and then reduce your gambling when you find it is not fun anymore and can no longer control yourself.

Of course you can’t beat the house. The sooner you understand this fact, the better it will be for your finances. The games are designed to make you lose, how would the casino generate profits if it was otherwise? This is just common sense. The whole point of gambling is checking if you are lucky or not at the exact moment. It is like smoking. You can smoke every once in a while but if you smoke every day, every hour, you’ll ruin yourself.

Yeah and I'll Stop and do it again tomorrow, it often happens that if I continue it will lose on same day, winning streaks are unpredictable because that's luck at the right time. Other people may continue the same day until they reach the maximum winning point, but usually not many people are that lucky, almost everyone makes mistakes in gambling if they get a winning streak.

Yes, not just once, but several times this has happened to me and it must have happened to pretty much everyone who plays.
Gambling really has this intention.... to make you win several times and think you're very lucky and lose less, but when you lose, you end up taking everything you've conquered, with the hope that you can recover if you keep playing.
To further encourage this, they give you bonus moves so you don't give up.
The best strategy is self-control, regardless of whether you are winning or losing, set goals and never go beyond that, because if you spend a little, the next day you will spend a little more, until you lose all.

I also experience the day when almost all my slot bet hits a good multiplier to the point of hitting free spins.  From one slot to another, after a set of bets gives me good winnings and whenever I  experience this lucky day, I make sure that I withdraw my winnings leaving only the fund that I allocated that day, and play another day.


This is one good example of a player in control. He knows when to quit or withdraw his winnings.


That is why experts advise gamblers to avoid alcohol while playing to avoid losing grip of themselves.

I ll stop and try it on other day as well. I might loose if I accept the winning streaks and move forward. I might be the luckiest one but do not wish to try it out and but may not take the risk. We need to be more careful at such incidents as these are common and that is the business strategy to trap the player. Every gambler is tend to do it. Likewise every player will take risk based on their experience.

Common scenario on a common day in gambling specially if you are a player who do actively deal with gambling games which you would really eventually be finding yourself on such condition.If you are a type of person
whose that impulsive when it comes into your gambling activity then its better to stay away but calling it a day kind of line isnt something that applicable for everyone because majority would be failing out this very basic principle on controlling out yourself specially into gambling where it do involves money which would really worsen up the situation because you are dealing on something which does have value.
So better to be that mindful in regarding with your actions.

In the region we live in- we don't have a casino here - so we do online gambling.
But the approach of the OP is very nice. One should have a patience and control over oneself in life and in casino to keep oneself safe from unnecessary trouble and debt.

Doesnt matter if your country does prohibit or allows physical casino because on the era that we do have today then accessing online casinos is just easy as pie thats why i dont
see any problems for someone who do really love to play gambling even though there are people who are really that fan of playing into these physical places or casinos
because it cant really be denied that the experience and ambiance is totally different. Controlling ones self in gambling is important because if you do just simply missing out this
kind of behavior then you would really be putting up yourself at risk of addiction or simply spending more than that you can afford to lose.

^ The answer to your question is here.
You should stick to your goal if you have a limit in gambling because we have our golden rule in ourselves that we must follow. Never chase your loss, whatever happens, just put always in your mind that you have a limit and come back on another day when you are ready again. That is how to control ourselves and that has been discussed it here so many times. Because if a gambler did not have control of themselves, they will surely turn into an addiction.

Well its really hard to control your losses. If im losing im probobly chasing the losses only if i see i cannot win i will stop and make it a day.
If im winning i will probobly play as much as possible until i lose the first bet. Once i lose the first one i will stop and take my winning for that day.

I also have to call it a day since I already won enough money and that is a very rare situation since you cannot always win in gambling so better to know when to stop. Chasing your losses is not a good thing, once I loss I move on right away and start to look forward for my next gambling day because if you do chase that losses, most probably you will lose more. We know gambling works like this and yes the house will always win so if ever you experienced to win good money in a day, better to stop right away and comeback again once you think its ok to play again.

Losing is indeed unpredictable, and chasing that losses is pretty normal for a gambler but once you out of capital better not to chase it anymore and go home right away. If you are already winning, its good to know when to stop and with this, you can enjoy the money you have won and maybe cover the losses you have made in the past days. I do have my target amount for a year, regardless if I’m losing or winning as long as my goal is not reached yet, I might continue gambling.

All gamblers experienced this from time to time I also continue betting if I still have time so I can continue enjoying I knew that it's not going to happen every gambling session so I make the most of it, but knows that I will eventually lose the game if you really want to make a profit then stop when you are already in profit, spending or extending your playing hours will eventually result in a loss, nobody can keep up with a house edge.

Definitely. I think everyone who has ever gambled has had this experience. That's is why I never go to a casino alone. And if it is online, I always ensure to have a contractual agreement with myself to leave a gambling site after x number of games or x hours whether I'm having a winning streak or not. One other thing I do is to tell a friend or family member to call my mobile number at x time. These strategies help me stay disciplined and gamble responsibly.

This may relate to emotional management, and this is what commonly makes many gamblers fail to stop themselves even though they have lost several times. hahaha
Btw, I will prefer to stop playing and continue the next day. I may be lucky at that time but may not be lucky twice or three times in sequences. Although we may desire to continue because the bonuses or the winning possibilities are high, it is better to be able to hold and stop it. Because as you said, the house will not let us win again and again in one day.

Self-control is the main key here, if you have this you will not be tempted to continue gambling especially if you are losing already. If you know how to control your emotion and your budget, you will not go beyond that and you will stay on your course. Gambling is very tempting, it will always play with your emotion so to avoid overthinking, better to have a good strategy every time you gamble and you should focus on that.

It depends on how you gamble if it's for profit, you'll go for it and take your chance might even add more, if it's for entertainment you can stop and continue tomorrow or continue having fun, between the two I prefer the latter, no pressure you can stop anytime as long as you are enjoying, you just though its a bonus that you win again to extend your gambling sessions, I experienced this many times and I always prefer the latter.

You described exactly what I've been through, and from what I see this is something that everyone has been through, man there are days when I wake up, I make the first bet and I win, I make the second and I win but on the third I lose, on the fourth bet I lose. again and on the fifth bet I lose again and I say to myself: "I'm angry, it's time to stop for today" and I stop, but the next day when I think things will be different I see that it all started where I left off the day before , that is, the defeats of the previous day haunt me the next day, that's why I started looking at gambling as fun, I don't see how they could be anything like a business, there's definitely no way gambling can give guaranteed profits. on the contrary, every time I bet, I put it in my head that that bet is money lost even without me seeing the result of the bet.


being honest, is there anyone who has gambling as a source of income? Is there anyone who lives (pays bills) thanks to gambling? I just see people lying on social media

Follow your preferred actions regarding that.

I don't follow the usual characteristic and behavior of some gamblers that if they feel lucky, then continue playing. That will just open a door for a big loss since we didn't realize how much money is losing now following the feeling lucky status on that day.

Be wise. If gambling against the house edge and profits hit you on the way, then out.

It's just a bad day , everyone experienced it , what else you expect?
A continuous luck of winning streak?
Don't overthink and moving on once you get that bad day sign , you need to train yourself to feel it and hsve control over it.

Otherwise you will get to fall into the same hole to fall even more deeper.

Be careful with the amount of money you invest. Of Course as stated above... that was a bad day.
Try to not take a second chance if you lose the first bet. Or be very careful while doing it.

Those moments are always so tempting and it happens to me once i have had streaks of losses and managed to see a single win boom the urge to play one last chance with that assurance of winning back my losses will set in and most times it ends up taking everything from me.

This is the reason i abandon physical casinos and bet-shops to stick to online crypto casinos where i just fund and play immediately and once i exhaust the fund that is simply the end of it for that day. Most times it takes extra discipline to tackle this so for me i just fund an amount i can lose for that day 

Yes, this moment is the main trap for the player.  

We perceive money as our property.  At the same time, our property is the object of our love and affection.  And this is our main mistake.  

Religion teaches that a person owns only his soul.  Everything else is an illusion.  

Especially when it comes to money bets in gambling.  

This money is no longer ours.  We lost them the moment we bet.  Winning should be perceived as a gift of fate.  Losing is a natural event.  

Then there will not even be a thought that after a loss it is necessary to recoup.

As long you are aware of the risk and as long you are willing for those balances to be lost completely then i dont see anything wrong with it as long you do spend the money which you are
really that prepared or accepting it to lose then this is what matter the most. Even if you do tend to chase up some insane multipliers with having those balance of yours then i dont see
anything wrong with it.

Chasing wins is a common behavior but dont tend to chase losses or trying out to break even because its an another story
which would make the situation even more worst.

It really is just a common scenario for any gamblers out there where you wanted to stop however you keep on winning. In this kind of situation, my instinct wants me to stop playing and withdraw my funds and try to play another day.

However, my actions does not meet up with my instinct, so I just continue gambling where I either win a lot more or just end up losing it all. Both scenario already happened to me, it's not much of depressing thing if I lose but it's so much fun and thrilling when you won a lot more.

it really depends on your mood here while you are playing your game. if you feel you have enough better get out while you are on the positive side. because if you will continue to play, the chance of losing it all will be high. most luck-based games are like that anyway. if you don't know when to stop, you will find yourself on the losing end. but if you will call it a day while on the winning end, you will be more happy for that day. remember, you are in gambling. not all days are lucky days.

I have experienced this several times but always end up getting my money back (no profit). I still don't have good emotional control when gambling, so when I win in a row all I think about is stopping when my capital returns. I salute people who gamble and always stop when they are lucky, they seem to be able to control their emotions.

I see loses as lose not having to try again when I know the chances of winning may be very slim. I do play lots of game and when I know that the chances of playing a particular game is slim, I do quite and rather use the fund for something else. I prefer using my fund to play other bets which I know will yield a good profits even though the probability is not always positive everytime. I see gambling as a risk which is the reason why I'm always careful how I use my fund when playing bets.

Very difficult, and it's a dilemma really. But experience wise, If I have this situation, (been there before), what I do is that I will have a good, perhaps like capital + few wins and then call it a day.

I'm just glad that I was able to have a win and recover my losses and then some. But I wouldn't extend my luck though, again, based on experience, if I continue then I could lose in the end because of what you said, the numbers are against you. And the longer you play, the higher you are going to get busted in the end. So it's better to have control and stop that time so that you can live and play the next day.

Well, being able to call it a day comes with experience! And in many cases, that's the best decision we can make! Winning streaks happen, especially the ones that trick us to think it's our moment to win! I was in many similar situations when I empty all my wallets in chasing some big wins that will bring some profit, tempted by some nice streaks!

It's gambling! I gamble for +20 years! I experienced almost everything in gambling (except some really really huge jackpots :)), gambling life is full of ups and downs! If we don't place bets we don't have a chance to win anything! I had some crazy nice wins with my last big bets, I was brave to push it all the way and I got lucky to recover my losses and to make huge profits! Many times I simply got busted! It's why responsible gambling is important, never gamble with money you can't afford to lose! We can get lucky in gambling the same as we can lose infinite amounts of money in minutes! Spending money you can't afford to lose will just create a bunch of problems, real-life problems!

If it's gambling in a casino, I'm doing it based on what I feel on that day. I admit I sometimes chase loss and still continue. I will call it a day once I think everything is not looking good already.

If it's about gambling in sports betting, I'm doing it regardless of what I feel on that day because generally, sports betting is my main forte. I love the sports that I'm placing my bet on.

As long as we know the risks we're dealing with, should be no problem in the event of a loss.

This has happened to me many times. Just when you start wrapping up your gambling session you make wins after wins. I usually just continue gambling because that's a lucky streak I got there. It would be such a waste not to grab it. But I will only continue up to the point that I lose. With that lose, I'm done. But the sad thing and a challenge most often is that this also convinces me to try again after that only one loss with a winning streak. Gambling is really hard to let go.

Everything is part of emotion. In my personal experience I never wait for a day. I just go for the big risk, I need to recover what I've lost or else I need to end of losing everything. Recently one incident happened, lost around $250 and the same day received my signature payment. Risked the amount and recovered the loss, but I believed it as a winning streak and started to play with the high rolls than declining the bet value. This finally ended at losing everything, so whether it is a winning streak/losing doesn't matter. It is the emotion that needs to be controlled.

If I can win a streak, I will stop playing and come back a few days later because I want to lower the tension after getting that winning streak. Indeed it will tempt us to continue playing, especially if it is a winning streak. It is about how we can resist the temptation not to get bigger.

If we can't stop at that time, we will continue playing and lose that winning streak so that we won't get any winning money. That's why you have to learn to resist the temptation so you can stop and enjoy your winnings.

I think most gamblers have experience this one. And it's really depend on how they are going to take it. For me, will try to play again and see where my luck ends. If it slots and then I got a bonus then see if I can have a good rounds. If let's say card games like Baccarat or Poker, will continue to play and stop when I lose. As a gamblers we love this kind of streak and I doubt that anyone here are going to stop playing.

Yup, i've been there and once you're on that streak it suddenly provides you a lot of self-confidence which could encourage you to increase your bet size on the next day or session. I usually stop after a few picks regardless of the outcome but sometimes I can't help myself from doing live bets when I see value on a pick. Also after experiencing that streak, it only takes a bunch of consecutive losses to simply crush your bankroll and stop yourself from chasing your previous losses and move on.

Well of course it happens,but i always take my small win and stop to wait for another day.I've experienced a lot of loss by following my greed,so it serve as a lesson,just take the small win don't bother with uncertain chance.Just play safe with buying lottery.

A person like me - who gets very upset on losing a small amount. For me making another bet after losing is not an easy thing.
But KUDO to those who really try again. I am not sure how people digest their loses, I once lost a few buck and I have a sleepless night- that is why I gamble once in a blue moon.

Of course we say that we wanted to quit for good but in the end we end up on the losing side since we follow that subconscious or the ego we have. I think I can count how many times I quit when I was ahead compare to quitting when already at loss. I guess that's just pure gambling.

We are just humans thats why its really normal to have that kind of reaction or behavior because it do really involves money and whether we are on a losing situation then its normal to have that kind of
ego and burst of emotion that we might able to cope or even thinking about break even or winning more thats why these kind of decisions are really that in common.
Dont ever try to beat the house because this is something impossible to happen and the harder you try the higher chance of losing money because you are chasing into something which isnt
really that possible.

I confess that this has happened to me a few times...
I realize that maybe my luck ran out or I became an unlucky and unlucky person lol...
I confess that I already lost money in gambling, but nothing very significant, I confess that sometimes greed can speak louder!! and so we must keep attentive

Because you might be a normal person, not a regular gambler who finds themselves in a casino every day for the whole day. I believe more than 80% of people who "gamble" are mere plebs like you and me, the rest are those real gamblers.


That sometimes depends on the person, and how much he/she is betting in the game. It's not very different from trading, "don't trade more than the amount you want to lose".

I'm quite rational in this respect and I don't get carried away because I'm on a winning streak, or a losing streak for that matter. I think a lot of people put too much hope in gambling and then get carried away and lose too many chasing losses or end up losing what they had won because they didn't stop in time. Not understanding the underlying mathematics also contributes to this.

What to watch out for from gambling games? what you need to do is self-control. If you want to play every day, I suggest you allocate the maximum funds you can spend. if your allocation is $500, then stop when it's all up. Don't be too curious about luck in the next round.
if you have won in a row, then immediately go out and come back the next day. although this is the most difficult part. because we will feel today is our greatest luck. This is the nature of gambling game lovers. I'm sure all gamblers experience it too.

100% completely agree, people tend to put too much hope in gambling even just for a moment, and I was kinda guilty for that narrative too.
Usually when someone is on a winning streak, we always think that this only happens sometimes and so you have to take advantage of the situation without thinking that the possibility of lossing is always there.
Chasing losses could gave you more losses eventually, but you're only considered lucky if you get back what you've lost for the day, manage to make profit, and of course manage to step outside the casino with all the money you got.

I believe that shouldn't be considered an absolute, because if there was such a pleb who NEVER got carried away, he/she would be like an emotionless robot. It's simply impossible in my opinion. I am also very confident that a big losing streak in the beginning of a gambling session would, without question, break many people's emotional limit.

We'll be fine as long as we don't follow the urge to continue the game.
We must realize that we have risked a lot of money at the gambling table and it is time for us to stop and rest.
The temptation to continue the game will always be there and it depends on how we can handle ourselves.
Maybe we can win today but not necessarily we can win tomorrow.

It's hard to be certain, sometimes winning streaks can put me in a good mood to keep playing. That's really hard to play against, especially if you're only playing on a small stakes scale thinking it wouldn't hurt to use a few more. ;D

I think I'll stick to the habit that the game will be completely over if the losses hit the target or the balance has been exhausted, or also an external factor that forces you to leave the game screen.

This reminds me of when I was addicted to gambling, luckily I did not know about crypto gambling at the time, I keep on doing what were against my wishes and I gambled more to inconvenient myself and lose more at the time. I later did not renew my credit card that I am using for deposit and with the bad experience, I later had to quit gambling for a year. It is not easy for gambling to control someone, instead of the person to control how he is gambling. Not good to be addicted.

I know exactly your feeling, had this myself many times. Especially during lossing sessions my mind keeps telling me that the winning streak is just around it the corner. If I only play a little longer I would make my money back. Unfortunately this is only wishful thinking and not real. There are no trend in gambling, just because we lost a few games in a row doesn't mean we are going to win now. The first few times I noticed that was I played regularly roulette. Sometimes I would see red numbers 6-7 times in a row coming up, my brain would always tell me now it has to be black. That's wrong, every new game is independent and the chances for Black and Red are exactly the same, the white call has no memory  ;). That is why I stop now rather than gamble more. For me it's helpful to set fixes time slots for gambling and when to take a break. We can always make back the losses on the next day. Only exception is if I play a poker tournament and I manage to get into the money, than I will play until the end.

In gambling the more eager you wanted to win is the long chances of losing , so why need to extend your greediness when in the end? you will lose everything lol.

Stand from the table once you are in god winning streak and once lose couple of times? then that is the signal that luck leaves you already so be gone or lose all again.

and also try not to make a revenge , I mean to think that all your losses will be recovered in single day because there is no such thing .

Yes it happens with me quite a lot. But I am aware of the fact that if you are on a winning streak then there are high chances that the next bet will be loss.
So if you have a feeling that you have collected a decent amount then just quit the game and come back the next day.
Also, you can continue the winning streak and wait for 1 or maximum 2 continuous losses.
As soon as you hit the losing bet just quit for the day.

I have experienced things like you many times, now you feel it yourself, first time involved in gambling, Of course I couldn't control myself and got caught up in the greed of betting and continued to gamble.

Once and twice, I realized what I was doing was betting and gambling, risk, can't be controlled by others, of course I controlled it myself, winning streak i have to control i don't let greed control me, in the end i decide to continue or stop, tomorrow I continue or when I want, basically you will realize it after winning and losing.

I only played poker, with the crypto casinos I started playing the PF and some slots, from the point of view of the dedication of time and profits they are two different worlds although they have in common betting, in fact each game in itself has planning, placing bets on automatic is not the same as playing each bet as if it were allin (laughs).

With the above it is not about winning or losing, it is about your plan, even the kind of game influences a lot, so how many spins will they play each day 100? 1000? 10000?, how much daily loss can you take $10, $20, $1000?, how much daily game time? even by type of game?, etc.


In poker e.g. tournaments is complicated depending on the type of tournament, you can play 1 minute or you can play 4 hours (maybe more) this uncertainty is complex in my current day so in my case when I don't have time I play sit & go or some cash tables, but in the second and third (poker) I establish a limit of gains and losses + time, whichever is fulfilled first, ready until the next time.

The point is that it is a mistake to play with streaks regardless of whether they are winning or losing, it is something that is at a higher level of control, both are intoxicating, so keep a plan and stick to it.

I experienced this lots of times especially when I was beginning. There's a feeling of greed that I wasn't able to control because of my excitement and being overwhelmed. However, as I go beyond gambling, I was able to control my emotions. You must set a target goal and stop when you hit it. Contentment in gambling is somewhat important because we could possibly lose more if we'll be too greedy.

Maybe I will be ready to bet until the streak ends or thinking of conservative if I took the lost money for the day. But definitely not going to try to bring the winning streak back if I am on the losing side for a while that is why we have to be sensible and stop betting for the day.

How long ago did you quit gaming? i suggest you avoid playing constantly for at least many more years, addiction is something that even if it has a small trigger will be enough for the person to go back to playing and this time things get more serious, and to make things even worse. much more serious is that if the person who had an addiction is working in a casino, right at the source where he can play. so take care about this matter, I hope you are already a 100% cured person and that you have your 100% self control


I also don't keep trying to repeat the same situation that led me to the winning streak, in fact I myself don't make plans to have a streak of wins, for me what matters is having more wins than losses and of course adding a strategy things can run well

Staying out of gambling for 2-1 days is funny that is not staying out but a time you used to rest and luckily for you then you started making back your lost money. Sometimes are like that you just lose money whatever strategy that you adopt, it doesn't just work and at another time is working . This is why they say some days are like that.



Quitting at times is better than always trying and failing because gambling is a game of luck and when the luck is against you then do better than trying next time.

I've experienced this but the situation is reversed from what you said, once I did gambling with some friends and that day the goddess of luck was on my side until the game was over, but the next day I was quite confident when my friends again invited me to gamble and the fact was fate bad luck continued to hit me that day without even getting a win from the card I held, now I realize that luck in gambling may only happen one day a week and if today you win it might be better to stop and play again next week ;D.

So well sometimes you are going to find that this happens a lot, people might be loosing in a streak and they win once, they gain like 50% back and then they keep playing thinking they are going to win all back but at the end of the day that's just how the software is programmed which means that they will give you a little bit of taste of winning so that you can put a heavy weight on your heart and keep on gambling, this is something that one must be aware of.  For me what you said this doesn't happen but what happens is this usually ^ which I also understand that is a strategy so I stay away, at one point I used to play crash a lot before I realized they will make you win in rounds but the data does not make sense and it crashes at 0 so many times, made me loose a lot of money honestly.

As the saying goes "you've got to know when to hold 'em, when to fold them, when to walk away and when to run". Unfortunately people associate a small amount of winnings, accrued from a positive streak, as somehow being a reward for all the money they put into the game so far. However, if it is from a casino, it is likely due to extreme odds akin to winning a lottery (with much lower winnings) or it can even be triggered by algorithms (at least on those casinos not designed in a provably fair way). Casinos have so much data to work with and one of those points will be what sort of behavior does a player exhibit that indicates they'll pour everything back in from a small payout - have they been depositing daily then playing for two hours hours straight? They'll keep going even if you pay them back a small fortune because a habit has formed where winnings have limited impact.

You mean we are supposed to do a day off? Then why did we get a winning streak? Or maybe you mean is after a winning streak, we call it a day but then our mind is playing tricks on us again. Well all of us have been on this feeling. Some gets defeated by their senses while some already learn from this and won't let this epic fail moment to happen again. I finally accept the fact that my old losses can't be recovered anymore.

I need to think like this if I still want to continue gambling. Just think that the your losses in gambling are like the money that use when you pay your bills, when you pay for your food and other stuffs. It wasn't wasted at all.

I know this feeling haha, most times this happens when gambling is about to take away all of your money. You go on a losing streak; give up on gambling, come back again, gamble win big. Then you feel this big urge to continue betting (which is definitely not good haha). I think to survive gambling, you must be disciplined enough to have a gambling budget and always remove profits each time

All of us who gamble know how much that could be tempting whenever you are betting, and you are winning. You might think that you are the King of the World or something like that. To that extent, it would seem impossible to be taken down not until you lose it all. I know I have experienced that.

Experienced players probably would limit themselves to a certain amount on their balance and just continue another day. I have experienced this, and it's effective. Just have limits, and I think you would be okay.

The House will always have the better edge in a gambling casino or establishment. Since these casinos are considered as businesses, people would at least provide a slight advantage to their business over the gamblers in order to at least earn profit. This is also the reason on why gambling is very popular and profitable but it requires a tremendous amount of capital in order to operate the business.

Personally, I like what you said that no matter what happens, one cannot just simply "defeat the house." I think this must serve as a reminder not just for me but to anyone who experiences winning/losing streak during their time. This must also be a warning that further gambling can either make/break your winnings in the process.

the shadow of a thing that might feel belongs to someone (luck). it's just a turning point. I personally never go back if luck hasn't come at the right time. the game is just a game and it (bonus) will come if the time is right. luck is indeed will come again, maybe but randomly and can't be wanted at will.
any financial activity to do with which we are able to risk it.
if you can, you can return to the arena to try again.

Yeah, everybody knows what this feeling is. When we're too confident, it's scary that the opposite of what we're feeling is about to come. Not to break the confidence and determination when you're on a winning streak but you should really call it a day and stop as soon as possible.
You don't have to allow the casino to take back what has been yours after going on a winning streak.

Much better after taking your capital and a few profits.

There should be a limit to playing, especially when you're losing, it's not a law, but every player should have one and stick to it, it will always help you relax and know how to restrategize. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who feels the house sometimes deploys a technique to put you behind and let you win intentionally to discourage you from playing, but I've noticed they do this in the ratio of 9:1, they win 9 and you win 1, and when you add it all up, you wouldn't have anything.
If I take a break from gambling, no amount of bonus will bring me back to that platform just to stress my brain when I know that I will lose again.

Gambling games are just games that will continue to tempt us to keep playing and it depends on how we can stop ourselves from being there. While luck itself will never come again and again to help us win the game and only selected people can get a chance to win. Never take too big a risk if you can't handle it because it will cost you big money. You have to take responsibility for yourself and your money if you don't want to get lost.

"Just have limits" is very easy to follow if you're winning or losing little by little "slowly", giving your brain time to properly process everything. But if you have a losing streak right at the first 10 minutes of the game, reaching your budget limit immediately/making you emotional, I believe it would enough stress to make plebs like us to break that rule. 8)

Call it a day after losing 1/4 of the profit again.  ;D
Kind of my traditional way of thinking when I am playing card games, dice, or any type of game that is played fast. I know I will lose because like you said, the house will always win it back. But there's a choice to not let them take everything.
The temptation will pull you back and you cannot stop it. Let it pull you but just for just a little amount and have the mindset that after losing it you will stop. If it wins more and reached your quota then do the same.

I believe from the "house's" standpoint, the people who regularly gamble are simply in one long gambling session in their balance sheets. From their point of view, if you keep coming back, you're just holding your winnings in your wallet temporarily for the day. You're only a real winner against the house if you win then truly stop gambling, OR you keep coming back for the casino to continue tallying your wins and loses.

I go through mixed emotions when I gamble....

1. At first I enjoy it, because it is supposed to be entertainment.... right?
2. Wrong... it is a "Hamster in a Wheel" experience with me... every day! You grind it out for hours and get only small wins.
3. When I start losing too much, I increase the bet size.... thinking I can win bigger, if I bet higher. (forgetting that you lose more too)
4. Then when my balance are almost empty, I go for something like "Crash" with a few large bets..hoping to hit the high multiplier.. but it never happens. I end on a zero balance... with an intense urge to kick something ::)
5. I then take a small break.... deposit again ....and rinse and repeat.

Now... if that is not the definition of insanity, then I must be the King of England.  ::)

Some people can certainly beat the house. There’s a decent number of people whom are actually banned from entering some casinos since they’ve done so well (I think this is mostly due to winning games of blackjack). As for your question I’m kind of the same, if I get on a real hot streak I tend to walk away in order to keep my gains, regardless if that means I’m giving up some potential further upside.

It all depends on my mood, but I always strive to leave the casino immediately after winning. For example, if I made a deposit of $100 I am ready to stop the game having increased my deposit up to $150. Of course it also happens that even after winning I lose everything and leave with empty pockets. I consider myself a player who has a sufficient level of self-control, but sometimes I have a strong desire to risk the entire deposit and I play to the last. 

If you are lucky just seize the moment, only the brave will do that, so if you are brave, you'll not be afraid to go all in. There's no tomorrow especially if you are just relying on luck, you cannot win in gambling that way, there are only a few times that you are lucky so take advantage of that.

However, the most important is for you to know your limit, set your winning limit so you will know when to stop.

Is this actually true? Experienced and skillful gamblers is mostly a high roller, if the casino ban him because he's just a popular gambler and not because of the suspicious activity, I think the gamblers can make an accusations against that's casino since it's doesn't right. Although he's a great gambler, after all he will need a luck to get a better card rather than his opponent.

Hmm....thanks for this advice!

Before I started gambling, I never imagined that it could become an addiction, but with my experience and vision I have today, gambling can be something "beneficial" for a person, for example, having fun and gambling to pass the time (this is my case), but on the other hand, gambling can be extremely vicious to the person and also for others around them (family, children, friends)

Everyone must have lost in gambling. Cause that's the law of the game. The most important thing is to stop gambling when you lose. You don't lose any more when you do this. Take a break for a while and come back stronger.

If it happens and if I reach my target prize, I usually stop for I believe that if I'll aim for more I could lose everything. Sometimes we have to be contented and try not to be too greedy. Profit is still a profit no matter how big or small it is. Being greedy could only make us break the win streak that we might experience.

I've experienced something like that, I was able to get a lot of profit instantly on the same day and after that I didn't make a profit withdrawal and instead continued gambling and immediately the profit I got was lost, from that incident I can use it for an important lesson that when I get a lot of wins then I have to go out and make a profit withdrawal, when you want to enter again then maybe you can use a different user so the system won't know that it was you who won a very large amount.

Because of card counting, giving the ability for the players to change the odds into their favor, no? But what other casino games can a player change the odds into his/her favor? I believe that argument is moot.


But will you come back and play again? Or walk away forever and truly call yourself a "winner"? Because from the casinos' perspective, it's only long gambling session if you keep going back to play.

Yes no human can survive without blood in their system but let not gambling be in your blood. Do not be addicted to it to that point you can not live without gambling. Let everything you are doing be moderate. Am yet to find anyone who is addicted to gambling making anything great from it. Most people who hit jackpot in gambling are those who just took their chances a few times, and not the addicts.

as the name says: "gambling", by itself you can understand that people only win by luck, while the owners of bookmakers do not make money by luck, they make money thanks to people's bad luck, and in mathematics casino owners are favored while gamblers or gamblers are disadvantaged in odds. That's why even though it's impossible for a person to think that they'll always be on a winning streak, it's also impossible to overcome the house. a good thing that has been introduced is the asia handicap, at least with that one can reduce his loss when placing a bet. but at the same time the odd becomes low, and if there's one thing I've noticed in the game of chance, it's that I never make bets with low odds because in the long run they are not profitable unless the person makes a multi bet

If I still have time to spare why not, I'll try my luck to regain my losses but if I have to do something important, then I call it a day and just come back tomorrow or when I have the time, this is pretty normal and it happens to all gamblers because gambling is so unexpected, you never know the outcome, just make sure that your personal life is much more important than your time in the casino.

It is easy to say than follow. That should you say there. Also you can say that it is easy for you to follow it because you are different from the majority which are addicted or not totally addicted but only have a hard time of controlling their self once they are between on those situations (losing or winning).

It is true that if our brain is calm it will be much easier to decide and we can mostly do the right thing, so it is important to stay calm when gambling and better before you start you should say to your self that you will accept whatever the outcome you are going to face. Only those who are in pressured and became emotional are not prepared.

I try never to go back to the casino the next day as very often one day is not enough for emotions have calmed down after a loss / win and I was able to soberly assess the situation. Emotions are our worst enemy which prevents us from making the right decisions, and no matter what positive or negative emotions we experience. But if I have some important business appointments I try not to play on that day as a loss can spoil my mood quite badly even if I am ready for it initially. 

If we can gamble to receive any outcome then it doesn't matter to win or lose because of using the allocation of money to lose, then no pressure whatsoever can affect the emotional for the purpose of betting to recover the loss. Basically, it's just for the type of gambler for entertainment with little money, they can gamble with calm emotional control and tend to be gamblers who are not serious often get wins and can laugh at opponents.

The best option is to stop and continue the next day. You won't have much chance of winning consecutive bets for hours on end, this might only happen at certain times for example 2-4 times a day if you are really lucky. So don't be greedy, stop for a moment and enjoy your victory.

You can't beat the casino, that's the point. Temptation is a part of greed, so avoid it and enjoy your victory today.

pausing (gambling) is the best way to think hard about the failure that occurred in the last gamble...

I also usually do this. when I lose a lot (until I run out of capital) usually I will stop gambling for up to 5 days or even a week, then play again with a calm mind and have forgotten about the previous loss. don't be too eager when gambling because if you are lucky, victory will easily be obtained even in just a few rounds.

How come you did not withdraw anything if that was "lots" of profit? When you say lots I assume it was over a hundred something dollars. Even if you can just left 10 dollars from yourself, that is already better. It can serve as a remembrance. Next time, don't be overconfident but whenever you win or when you reach the minimum withdraw threshold (if you're a small time gambler) always make it a habit to withdraw first.

You can still deposit your money back in the game but never deposit all as it doesn't make sense anymore of withdrawing it. About using another account, no that was not true but it is still possible to win again as long as you are lucky. The owner doesn't have the ability to stop you from winning more.

If am taking a leave them am taking a leave, for there are moment the gambling may not be favourable for me, no matter the pattern I put in and that gives me a signal that I have to take a leave.

One thing about gambling and gamblers is that, when a gambler decide to take a break from gambling that's when he feels that that moments of break might be the moment he was supposed to be making big wins and this impression has made it hard for many gamblers to stick to their decision of taking a vacation from gambling.

From experience around may gamblers around my vicinity, a stunch gambler calling it off a day is something rare.

Yes, this is a very good habit. 

After a crushing loss in the casino, it is desirable and necessary to take a time out.  In addition, to put yourself in order, be sure to get enough sleep.  Sleep with dreams allows you to comprehend the events and emotions of the past day.  But sleep alone is not enough. 

After an 8-hour working day, you need to have a good breakfast and have an interesting new day.  It can be a picnic in nature, a trip to the theater or an exhibition, a game of volleyball or football, a date with a beautiful girl. 

An interesting and eventful day is an excellent buffer between two games in an online casino.  This will break the chain of failure.

Gambling doesnt have pattern thats why i dont really boggle myself on forcing about probabilities because it could really create that kind of emotion of being desperate whenever you do really mind off about
winning.If you do persevere then it might really result into such possible problems that correlates with addiction. Take a break or stop mid way if you do see that you are already spending
too much or you are already getting that too impulsive when it comes on dealing with gambling so its just sensible that you would really be taking such action.

If you adhere to risk management, then you will protect yourself from losing your money. Allocate some amount that is not large or critical for you, and bet no more than a few percent of this deposit at a time, it can be 1-3%, but not more than 5%. Thus, you will have the opportunity to make many bets and from them you will already see what result you get at a distance. You will be able to analyze and see if you are making a profit or if this is just a decrease in your deposit. By following simple rules, you are able to control everything and not succumb to emotions.

There is no certainty in gambling. We can only dream of getting rich suddenly. That is our basic motivation in gambling. If we often lose, our emotions will haunt us to keep fighting. And we keep thinking that the next day we will definitely win. I can't control my emotions in betting, but it needs to be done to control the use of money in a bet.

Playing in the gambling business industry always depend on us actually, whether in crypto or not as long as we know what we are entering and you enjoy it, I think there's nothing wrong with that. Yes, it is really tempting to play but of course in the end if we loss we are the one who suffer. But if we only play for fun, I guess win or lose it doesn't matter to us. That means, you are already prepared if you loss your coins in the gambling.

I think everyone has experienced that when you're into gambling. I was really tempted before to chase over my losses, but i still end up more desperate than i was. The luck you thought was only at first, and then the house just take all of your winnings. So if you decide to call it a day, stick to it. You can come back the following day if you want to gamble again. Otherwise, if you keep chasing your luck, that will even push you to lose everything you have and that will probably let you stop gambling because you have no more money to bet.

If that is your motivation for gambling, you can continue to gamble because your subconscious mind will tell you that one day you will be able to win a lot of money. You should stop dreaming like that because it will make you unable to stop gambling.

You better learn to control your emotions, especially if you often lose. It will cost you a lot of money because you want to recover your previous losses.

Gambling is so unpredictable - we face some very strange moments during the bet and the day does not turn out to be a lucky day.
And then we leave the Casino with the hope that the next coming days are the good days. But luck hardly sides with everyone!

Because there are unpredictable factors, we should be careful and not use big money to gamble. Indeed most people who gamble want big wins but we can't always expect victory to come to us. So before we spend all the money, we better use a little money to gamble. Luck will only come to those who deserve it, while others can only wait and keep playing without any clear time they can earn big money from gambling.

Well that's not a good mindset to always dreaming you will get rich with gambling, because you will use all of your money until you hit the jackpot. While in slots, you're against the house and you need to beat the house edge that doesn't favor in you, which is why many people rekt instead of rich. You need to think gambling is for fun and profit is enough, not think you'll get rich instantly.

This is true that while gamblers continue to lose money while trying to win a big money and that's what continue to make platform owners more and more rich. There is hardly any gambler that can say he is a winner in big run most of them are loser. Just invest as much as you can afford to lose.

It was a moment I will never forget. I have continued to play even though I have won in a row in the end I still lost everything. Just like I stopped playing after winning streak and continue it another time. Stupidly I still lost everything. Actually, I realized that it would be difficult to beat the house but I kept doing it over and over again.

If really that I am lucky then I will try to count my losses, if I drop at least 4 losses? then i will decide to stand and try my luck again in the next days or weeks.
You are making a perfect decision mate, never become a greedy person and if you did? then expect losing than winning lol.

I hate chasing back my losses because that is most risky .

I think many of us have had the same experience as you. But what makes the difference is how we can react to it properly so that it doesn't happen again. If you can stop playing after a winning streak, it will be good for you to enjoy that winning money and even come back another time. But if you still keep playing just because you want to win more money, then forget it because it won't allow you to win much more in the next round because luck is not necessarily on your side. It's hard to beat the house but the hardest thing is to beat yourself.

Gambling is not a game against the casino.  This is a game against yourself. 

Every person has many shortcomings - greed, gambling, arrogance, self-confidence, etc. It is they who prevent us from winning at gambling. 

We do not know how to control our emotions and therefore we cannot stop in time.  A series of victories or a series of defeats causes strong emotions in us. 

These emotions do not allow our mind to control the situation.  We commit inappropriate actions that lead us to lose the game of chance. 

You need to learn to control your emotions.

This is how greediness can kill you since you're want more and more without thinking to stop. Usually I stop when it's already 2-3 hours since it's a portion for my daily gambling or when I have tripled my initial bankroll, it was my requirement to stop. If I'm lucky enough and can tripled my bankroll in just few minutes, I will stop and play it tomorrow. You need to set up your own rules to control your behavior.

Even if the casino did not have an advantage and it would be on your side, then you would lose everything if you bet on all the money you have. Based on your story, that's pretty much what happened. The idea of increasing the bet with the money won and winning more each time is bad because sooner or later you will lose and lose all the money. Bank roll management is needed to avoid this.

No matter how you control your emotions, the casino will still have an advantage and you will lose in the same way as if you did not control your emotions. And this game is against the casino. The casino does not make pools of players who would play against each other, it only allows you to bet on events with an average profitability from the appearance of which is less than the cost of the bet. So in the long run, you always lose.

Maybe you have deposited a good amount and also win a good amount because you have won in a row, that is why it didn't erase easily in your head. I know it is hard but you must learn to let go of that bad memory in order to feel better. What important is still the current or the present situation. You are healthy and still have some cash with you.

There is still a chance that you can win again but this time you must know what to do. Don't repeat the same mistake again. Not only in your winning streak but you should also not continue to deposit and try to revenge what you already lost by depositing more money because it surely get eaten over and over.

How can you be sure that he can win. Sometime these kinds of suggestions and ideas make the gambler overconfidence and when they return back with the loss no one is there to support them.

I believe if advantage were at the gambler's side he would have won on long term, if using a decent bankroll size and management of this sum, because that way house edge wouldn't exist, it would be player edge instead. However, it's an impossible situation at first place, as there wouldn't be any casinos working with such rules that go against the profitability of their own business.

On long run you can use the best money management possible, but for most gamblers it won't prevent them from losing more than they earn from the games. For a small percentage of players who live from this activity management is a must and makes total difference, though. And to do this efficiently, mind or emotional control plays a big role in a gambler's routine.

When I first started gambling in my life, the site I was gambling gave me so much that I was surprised and since then I have fallen in love with gambling. But I could not afford to gamble. I made a deposit on that site and enter unlimited in a day to watch live games and occasionally catch bets. But on stage I lost the original money with my profit. I got shock I started depositing again and kept playing. However, in the first 1 year, I made a lot of deposits. Which made me a kind of addiction. But now I have learned to control myself a lot.

In this case, self-control in playing gambling is necessary because the emotions will increase, and the desire to win will also increase, especially if we can win in a row. Greed, despair, and wanting to get more than what we already got will also increase, making us continue gambling. But if we have good self-control, I'm sure everything will not overpower you, even vice versa, you can still control yourself and know when to stop. Your emotions can also be controlled and regardless of the outcome, win or lose, you are still unaffected and can leave the casino without looking back.

It depends on the kind of game that I am playing, if it is something completely dominated by luck then I will just gamble for as long as I wanted to gamble during that session and then that will be it, however if I am playing a game like poker in which your level of skill is what matters the most then I will extend the length of my session, after all I could just be playing superior poker for one reason or another or my opponents could too easy to read.

A desire to win isn't exactly wrong, we all inherently have that and want to achieve it in every possible thing or situation that we can, just that we include other factors in said winning. In this case, winning is like a symbol for winning money, so it makes winning only a medium instead of the goal, which is wrong imo. Winning should be the end goal of every gambler out there, and the money should just be a kind of side goal of sorts. As I'd like to say, Never expect anything when gambling, just like how it goes in trading.

But usually what often makes players continue to play when they feel it's their lucky day is when they play games based on luck, to be honest it's not easy to stop playing when you're winning, you will always feel like you have to keep playing and think you can always win, but experienced gamblers always know when to stop because experience teaches that it is impossible to always win and impossible to always lose, and lucky days is always have a limit.

Yes, this happens in most gambling games. 

In addition to the emotions of the player on the side of the casino, there are advantages due to the mathematical theory of probability.  In addition, the casino (unlike the player) has no limits on the amount of money.  If they start to run out, the casino may abruptly interrupt the game (for example), citing a technical failure.  The casino can change the rules of the game (in theory), but the player cannot (even in theory). 

But the player can limit the amount of his losses by controlling his emotions.

It happens sometime that you've a long run of good bet, but at the long term you'll always lose. I can't forget that in february I've won something like 10 bets (12k dollars) in continuos way, then I've lost everything with the

other 5 bet that I've submitted.

I think when you get that much profit then you have to make a profit withdrawal and don't let you use that account again because the system can detect how much profit you have made, you have to create a new account so it looks like you just played and has the potential to can get a lot of profit.

Hopefully this can be important information for you that the gambling system on the website can be set like that so we as players must be smart to find weak points that can make us always profit from gambling.

This is most likely the experience of every other gambler, the casino has a way of always controlling your emotions and is systematically attracting you back to play more so that there can generate more revenue from you.  But what I use most is to set a timing for myself once I reach my limit it doesn't matter what the next game result will be I will walk away.

That's a rare trait for a person who always plays every day but honestly, most people cannot resist going back to play more and most likely they lose and regret the moment they turn back to play. That is why most gambling dens will let you do what you want after you have won because they know exactly what you will do next. You are coming back to play and to win more, that's the time when they gonna get back what they have in you and you gonna end up giving them more when you lose big money.

Yes.

I've experienced it many times already since I started gambling. You will feel the adrenaline rush, and you will think that you will win constantly, and I will only stop whenever I lose my money. That is also the reason why I didn't experience a day when I end up winning in gambling because most of the time I end up losing especially when I'm in a winning streak.

Over time, I overcame it and know how to control my emotions and stop whenever I feel that I need to and will continue to gamble the next day. Gambling is all about emotions and luck as well :D. You can't handle your emotions? You are unlucky? Then you have a high chance to lose your money.

There are so many hard decisions we have take to save oneself from possible trouble.
Stopping when you think you may lose your money and have patience to bear the loss is very important.

Yes mate!, that's what I am feeling. It is really hard to overcome , I admit it to myself that I always fall for temptation in gambling even now, I always say to other people that they should learn to manage their emotions but if you are in that place it is very hard, self-discipline is very much needed, we can stop ourselves immediately consistency will be the key and one step at a time.

We get easily influenced to such choices. Its based on the situations and needs one decides. I had chosen to play back but yes I have lost often. Thought I would get another chance to win but kept loosing. Literally stopped playing now as I could not concentrate on main stuffs. Yes this is kind of an attraction and we easily tend to get addicted and never get out of it.

If you are really not good on handling out your emotion then most likely you would be ending up on spending those wins back into the casino and losing it again.
Very common scenario for most gamblers on where they do end up on such situation on where they do really eager to spend those winnings back because of the
hope that they might win again but thats not how gambling works.You might be lucky but not all the times that it would really be staying on your side.

It is not wrong but we should realize that the desire to win from gambling is not easy and there is no certainty when we can win. If they do not have the goal of winning from gambling and just want to enjoy gambling, they will not try to pursue winning. So in this case, as long as we only have to spend time playing gambling and have no goal of achieving victory, we can enjoy our time and stop at the right time. And having good self-control will also help us manage the money we gamble with.

I think everyone will be in a dilemma when to stop when you are given victory.  whether to stop or continue, everyone who plays has experienced something like that.  it depends on how you control yourself.  because the game will never stop so you are the one who has to limit yourself not to continue it, I think winning in any type of gambling will not give you the jackpot every day, now this is how your wisdom is involved.  quit or lose everything or maybe your balance is growing.  basically all this is just your own speculation

That is so true - a desire to win is not wrong. So is lust for money.
One should not be greedy and lust for the money. Having a self control and stopping when needed is the essence of gambling. Better safe than sorry.

A lust for money is the one that is bad because when you say lust it means a strong desire and it can make you obsessed to it but it is not wrong if winning is not your main objective when gambling. Win can come the more you won't expect that it will happen and that is the best feeling because you did not force yourself too much looking for it.

The true essence of gambling is about being entertained but a self control might still be needed even if this is your only goal because having fun can also be addicted and it you continue playing, you are going to burn more money in the game. If ever you end on that situation then the only solution left is to stop it.

Well this reminds me that in some traditional casinos they can apply this type of ban, many years ago when I was in the u, a friend and I went to a casino to play roulette, at that time we used to learn the roulette routines, that if pair-color and each one learned something, sometimes we won, sometimes we lost, but once they did not let us pass, and they did not give us any reason, now this only happens in traditional physical casinos, in online casinos it is difficult for them to do that against a user, normally anyone who makes a deposit and plays a lot can play as much as they want.

When winning streak, gamblers expect another higher win so it is unlikely that gamblers can control themselves when the peak of profits is high. Some gamblers leave will quit after losing 20% of their winnings, even for gambling addicts they don't quit until they experience higher losses due to lack of greed from winning streaks.

Greed and lust are considered as deadly sins. It's good to get money but having lust for more is not a good thing.
Sometime it bring to you almost nothing at all. Having a self control is very important both in gambling and in life.

I have passed and I think that the first times like any player I have fallen into thinking that I think I am invincible, that it is my moment, that I can have a good profit and start playing by betting a little more, but the results are not good, in most of the time I end up losing more than 50% of what I had earned, the first time I felt that I lost everything and my balance was zero, it is difficult to realize that it is a mistake to do something like that, then after "mature" these events is that I applied that what I win, I take advantage of it, I stay put and I don't insist anymore, I move on to another game, I bet a little, or I do anything else because I come out with a positive balance obtaining a profit.

That is the best thing a gambler can do. Keep a strong control on your nerves and getting up and leaving the place when needed.
Those who gets impatient and lose control they become the biggest loser ever.  Life teaches us balance we must learn it sooner the better.

Gamblers have an instinct of "feeling lucky" although, in reality, there's no such thing as that.

It's not wrong though to test your luck on that particular session. Give it a test.

Give it a few rolls and risk a fixed budget on that session to see if those feeling lucky do really make sense to believe. If everything went smoothly, then extending your session for a few more rolls should not harm your bankroll on that day. The result on that day depends on how long will you stick to the idea that you really feel lucky as we know, in the long run, the house will eventually turn everything around and that lucky feeling will be turned into the worst day.

That really gives us the urge or somewhat temptation when you are on the winning streak. We literally think it was our lucky day, we feel that we would win all day. But unfortunately, here in gambling is different, yes luck may come to us and let us enjoy the moment, however, the situation will never stay long, that's 5 consecutive winnings in a day is very lucky as the next to this is losing giving a favor back to the house. And many people got empty their pockets due to the desire of having luck again.

The last line you have mentioned is very productive.
People empty their pockets insearch of desire to get rich again. But that is also correct that there are very few luck people who keep winning all the 5 rounds. And go back home rich. I am not the type obviously.

we have almost the same story in common and maybe this is a common thing for slot gambling players. started from just fun turned into wanting to chase bonus rounds and target maxwin. this is the beginning of a disastrous addiction. I finally realized the problem I was facing. in the end I was able and succeeded in reducing the game of any betting game starting from learning to control myself.  it was quite effective for me, maybe other cases could be mutual learning, limiting the game, winning or losing just for fun.

and then - excess of everything is bad. Be it gambling or consuming alcohol or be it your habits like gluttony or sloth.
One should learn to have balance in both personal and professional life. This can lead to a better lifestyle - both personal and professional.

It has happened and it isn't out of temptation, but out of greed I've continued gambling and won. My big days were on sports betting. Later at some point I moved towards casino games I started to loss and this hasn't stopped yet. I don't know why I wasn't able to stop, in between I used to take a break and come back to loss again. This is how things are going with me. I wasn't able to switch to sports betting, and I was getting much into casino without reason.

Everything should really be in balance if you dont really like to mess up on particular things because excessive things or dealing into something in too much time or excess then it would really be harmful thats why

having that good control in emotion or self discipline is really that needed or crucial in almost all aspects in life not only limited on gambling but if we do talk about on particular manner about gambling then having that
control is needed.
Why? You already know that you are losing too much but still you are really that ignoring on stopping but instead chasing up your losses and then later on
you do regret that you hadnt stop.

It has something to do with the excitement that you're getting when you are playing games in casinos on sports betting we go to where we excite the most, you're not the only one many of us experienced this, we know that our chances are low but we still continue to play where the risk is too high, where the risks are high the excitement is also high and this is something we want to experience over and over again.

Actually, it is one of the mistakes that we don't realize because we can feel the excitement. That's why we end up playing gambling until we end up losing again and again. But if you switch to casino betting just to feel a different kind of excitement from sports betting, then one day you can return to sports betting because you will miss the times when you could win from sports betting. Maybe right now, he can't switch to sports betting because he's still curious about casino betting.

This is what keeps us coming back,we know that our adrenaline and dopamine released from our brain is high during such sessions.We want to feel that excitement again and again,this has also risks that it can make us addicted to gambling,most of the times it happens to people who play slot machines but those who play sport betting are not excluded from such events.There is no reason,it is the feelings that get you sad,hot and feel the rage that keeps you to continue playing,chasing the losses and losing even more.

It's the subconscious working commanding you to continue because in the past you've wished and promised that you will try or thinks that you can recover all your losses, and when the opportunity is presented to you, you grasp or take it because the subconscious never forgets and always remember what you put on it, it's hard to fight the temptation if you're wishing it or planning it even when you are away in the casino platform, the only way to combat is to don't over think about gambling, leave gambling when you're done playing.

It is called a gambler who relies on luck who believes that he/she cannot lose and will always win at gambling, something that is not right and good to be a gambler's mind. So the only weapon we have as a gambler in a casino is if you know that you often win, it is better to stop first and come back the next day, because if you continue, you will definitely lose because it exist that greediness in being a gambler, also causes us to have no chance of beating the house edge at a gamble.

winning at gambling is like luck. i've experienced what you're going through.
but no one can beat the bookie, so for me winning at gambling is just a bonus when you play your skill at gambling. so when i win at gambling in a row i will never expect to win more and i continue the next day.
maybe when you win in a row if you continue and hope to win more you will lose more, because the bookies always win

Self-control so as not to be greedy is a high awareness that many players don't realize, meaning that when on a certain day and time you get a winning streak, you shouldn't assume that the winning streak is a way for you to take everything you've lost. Because if that's what you consider then I'm sure in the end you will repeat the same mistakes again. So in the case of suddenly getting a winning streak then as much as possible you bet knowing the time to stop, when you get back a loss then at that time you have to stop. Then, you can come back the next day at the same time, and if the initial result is the same winning streak then you can repeat it as on the previous day and come back the next day with the same hour and time. If the results are different, then you should stop at that point.

The feeling is like rushing when we're on that particular moment and when we're winning, there's really nothing can beat us on our minds and we think that it's the best day and all the luck in the world is with us. Whether you play sports betting or any casino games and you're winning. You won't think that it should be called a day because your luck might not be gone and it's still there for you think to keep on going. However, we all know how it looks like in the end if we don't stop on during those lucky moments.

On the time that you do able to experience constant win then you do really have that kind of emotion or experience where you do really get that confident and believing that you would really be getting rich if you do

proceed or play even more or further until you would experience loss and do lost all the winnings that you do have.So the time comes then you would really be molding that thing on mind on believing that you might

be lucky on next bet and able to experience the same winning streak that you had experienced earlier.There were no guarantees if it could happen but in most cases it do make the situation even more worst
and this is what makes gambling business to be very profitable because of these kind of mindset and behavior do people have.

Anyone that have been a regular on betting platform or shop as was mine case, you certainly must have had these experiences. You suddenly feel like it's your time to recover all you've lost and even gain more. A few more loses after some consecutive wins don't seem to matter but in actual, its a clear warning on how things have turned and you ought to heed and call it a day. Even when you've not lost, the fact that you made some wins already is you to have gained in on your lose or made profits off your stakes. Best thing to do is to walk away before other emotions set in and your likely to lost all that you've won.

Correct! We shouldn't let ourselves to give in especially in the times when we have a winning steak, of course it is really hard to stop because we are confident that the luck in our side that time but we need to control our mind so that in the end we won't find ourselves regretting on our actions. We must draw a line even if we're still winning to avoid losing down the road.

As a bettor and a gambler, it is really hard not to have these experiences and this is one of the most common problems that gamblers are still trying to conquer because it really hard to put a stop sign on that specific activities if you're having a good run. We are thinking that this might be the day where we can somehow recover our losses in the past days but in the end, we still lose.

That's because we can't stop ourselves and that's also why it's really important to have the right mindset.

It happened to me lots of times sometimes when I lost the game I quit on the others hand some I come back the next day  or later . In this case it was happend that I win and most of the cases I lost more. In this case, I would say that it depends on who, if someone wants to gamble as a hobby, then they may already play in that strategy.  On the other hand, even those who gamble professionally work from emotion and then play there again to raise money.

If you often have an idea to try to win back your past losses, then you obviously play gambling not for fun but to chase big winnings. And if so, then most likely you will once again leave the gambling area with empty pockets, as you do not comply with risk management and play as long as you have money. Personally, I always try to get out of the game in the black, of course if luck favors it. In my opinion this attitude to money and gambling helps to bring up a sense of responsibility.

This pursuit of the bonus round is more likely to result in only losses. We always think that just a little bit more and the bonus round is just around the corner, as you say, but it's a mental trap. We don't know what is behind those corners and everything is based only on chance and the probability of winning programmed by the casino. You yourself write that you only sometimes win in this way (after a pause in gambling for several days or weeks). So, "wrong thing" can't be controlled.

It's very easy to get tunnel vision when you're in a long gambling session, some people might even have great concentration at the start and not realize that they lose it the longer they hang around. Things like consuming alcohol and growing more tired can greatly effect your decision making skills. Places like Vegas have built the whole psychology of their casino's around some of this behavior, like removing any clocks from the rooms and keeping them in glaring brightness 24 hours a day. Sadly for most, the longer you stay in a losing session, the worse the eventual outcome is likely to be as your mind tricks you into thinking that a win is just around the corner or that somehow the casino owes you a win which might bring you above break even.

The character of this type of gambler is a type of dissatisfaction with the victory that is obtained. It's happened to me personally, and as you know opportunities don't come repeatedly at the same time. You will lose what you have gained unexpectedly. The ambition of getting more doesn't really apply to winning gambling. The casino has succeeded in playing your mentality to return to betting and has actually led you to a deeper abyss. The ideal advice would be to stop and withdraw the winnings. Unfortunately, it is difficult to be in a position of complete control over greedy ambition.

And what the OP feels must have been felt by almost all true gamblers if we are not careful and don't see or learn from mistakes then we will receive more losses.
and it is undeniable that the desire to pursue previous defeats will certainly exist and moments of victory and even successive wins, and this is where we will be tested and tempted or ambitious to continue playing and hope to continue to win, which is actually a trap that will bring misery or lose everything .
and stop when emotions are rising or stop when your position wins several times and don't be provoked by emotions that make you waste your winnings.

It's all about that thinking that we'll be lucky if we keep going and that's not going to change our minds when we're hitting those wins. The possibility of us stopping at that time is there but when you're excited and your emotions are getting caught up.
You're barely going to stop because you are positive and you think that it's the only day that you'll have that luck with you.

As per what he explains, I think it wasn't the excitement that makes him continue playing on casino games but it was the urge to recover his losses. Now he is in danger because he can't seem to get out. This was hard at first and takes a big courage to commit quitting and forget your past sessions but we must do it if we want to change our lives for the better.

Being excited to win big or playing higher risk games is something that I can relate to. Till now that was still my play style. I can accept to lose easily than to stay longer playing a less riskier game knowing that I can also get a lesser return. I feel that I am only wasting my time there because I am also a busy person.

I know this feeling very well, after a few losses you start winning again and your brain tells you that you are on a winning streak now. To me it doesn't really seem like there are streaks in gambling, every new day will bring us back to the exact same games with the exact same chances of winning. Our brain likes to see patterns, that is also why we want to bet on black if we see a long red streak in roulette. Somehow our brain tries to predict the future based on past results. It is on us to make sure that we don't fall into this thinking, we know better that the gambling rounds are not connected and every coin toss or dice throw has the same probability of outcome. In my opinion it is better to limit our gambling time before hand, if we give ourselves 1 or 2 hours in the evening to play on a casino we should make sure that it doesn't turn into 3 or 4 hours. Having clear boundaries when it comes to gambling also makes sure that we are not at risk to become addicted to gambling easily.

I have been able to learn with time the patterns of the slot that I play always in my favorite casino.While it took a lot of time and a lot of losing sessions,lately I think I have grasped it for good.Before two weeks I won a x776 multiplier there and was happy with that and quit.Last week the game though did not want to give anything so after winning the bonus round 2 times and getting only x4 and x7 multipliers I quit when I lost a maximum of 20 dollars.

How do I know to read the patterns of the game,it is because of the bonus round,when it gives you low multipliers it is time to quit,also when it gives you those multipliers during the normal game x10 or x100 and hit nothing,it is also time to quit.When it hits a lot of time a winning combination with multipliers during normal game time to stay.I am talking about Sword and Holy Grail slot,don't know for other ones.

When i gambled i got rid of all greed. I know i will lose everything if my emotions get in the way of my mind. I know at the end of the night the table will win. That's why I always play confidently. I patiently wait for small gains to become a mountain. We should not forget that the continuity of a drop of water is very important. Drop by drop it becomes a lake.

any strategy how this can be?

maybe you would be better help us about learning this Ridding of Greed?

Yeah that's better , because our Emotions will bring us to losses if we let this to take place in our decisioning .
Table will always win if you don't know how to control yourself and how to decide for this part.

Thats a very dangerous mindset to have in gambling, especially if you are in an altered emotional state from having lost money. Thats what most if not all gambling casinos rely on, at the end of the day. They want you to become so disoriented and emotionally unstable that you make a bad decision and give them all you money. Thats basically their business plan.

I think that is why it is utterly important to discipline yourself with hard rules which you have decided on beforehand. Rules like the amount of money you are willing to lose/win before leaving the casino. Or if you feel yourself getting angry, its time to leave for the day. Rules like that.

Follow a strict disciplined gambling style and you will find your losses become a lesser deal.

Controlling emotions in gambling is one of the cardinal rules... If you control your greed, you can say that you have a chance of taking money out of the casino, if you are lucky enough to win it of course... But I still think that if you're not a professional but an amateur, the casino will take your money anyway, no matter what strategy you use... ;D

I have had this feeling several times when am gambling the moment I wanna stop but if I see that am on a winning streak I will be tempted to continue gambling and this has made me lose so many times in gambling. Most times I used to think there are spiritual things attached to gambling because you will want to stop even when you're losing but another mindset will be telling you to continue you will realize yourself when you have lost all you have.


The last time I was involved in soccer betting I had this feeling that I will bounce back after I lost my money while gambleng,  I wanted to go and come back the next day since it was a bad day for me already but I kept thinking I was going to recover all I have lost that was how I ended up getting nothing at the end of the day.

In my opinion, the desire to win back previous losses is more of an excuse than the real reason why the gambler continues to play. Because at a certain point it becomes obvious that the total amount of losses already significantly exceeds the money that the player can allocate to himself for the game and there is no chance to recoup, and the best option to stop the game is to stop playing. But this does not stop anyone and they continue to "try to win back."

Maybe you can share how you got rid of all greed because it's not easy to do. Most gamblers can get greedy, especially if they get multiple wins, making them want more and bigger wins than before. Emotions can also get bigger along with the wins we get so we have to be very careful about using our money for betting. You can be confident but don't be overconfident because it will make you forget how far you have come in gambling. If your profits are greater than your losses, then it is time for you to stop gambling.

Probably the only right option is to allocate some kind of limited budget for yourself and stop playing when it runs out. If there are a few wins first then I don't even know if anyone will stop as I only see it from a fun point of view, no focus on trying to make money off of it. But it would certainly be very good not to lose the allocated budget, but to try to increase it.

You should look gambling is just for fun purpose and not making as an income, if you still think about profit or income in gambling, then you wouldn't get rid of your greed since the reason you gamble is for earning. We're already know casino have a house edge and you can't beat it, in the long term you will lose and the house always win. You should stop when you have set specific amount you're want to gamble or interval times when you will stop and wouldn't effect your other activities.

But this kind of thing is easy to say but hard to do.
The steps you took are very good and should be like that because indeed in gambling patience in waiting is also quite important, on the other hand self-confidence is also needed but indeed sometimes things like this are quite difficult to happen, regardless of anything as long as we are wrong in anticipating then indeed Greed always haunts.

You should always have this, both losing and winning target is important if you are trying to win over the house. For sure, in the long run house will win due to house edge and without having a good control of your gambling activities, the chance you will continue instead of moving away for a while will continue to trigger.

Not always greed but the adrenaline that you have inside, you feel that you can win or recover if in case you are in the losing streak
that momentum will push you and if you don't set your target will lead you to lose or burned your entire bankroll..

That seriously depends on the gambler on how they put it in perspective but for the majority, that is the most common cases that they are trying to conquer. Gambling can be enjoyed if it is viewed as an activity where we can entertain ourselves just like what you said, in my case, I go for the both sides, I'm bringing what I can afford to lose with a goal of having fun.

The greed factor is not the only thing that spurs gamblers desire to continue betting on winner streaks, but andrelin also has an effect when wins streaks can't stop themselves but instead use them to get higher profits than the previous target, even though in gambling it doesn't always give win and risk losing money from winning results, but we must determine the time interval of each winning streak to focus on good self-control and better get out of gambling to enjoy money from winnings.

I am going to tell you something with all responsibility, sometimes we have something that we call intuition, and many times that intuition can even save our lives from any eventuality, it is not a lie, it is something like what mothers have with their children, some They call it the 6th sense, which is very real, therefore, if you have an intuition, whether it is a winner or a loser, pay attention to it, in the event that it is from a game or any event in life, but you have to know when it happens. it is and when it is not, sometimes the brain plays us a little and we can make mistakes, which is totally valid, but when you have that feeling, do it, it is very likely that it is a warning.

Yes, you are right. Suppose we can allocate some money for gambling and not deposit another amount when it runs out. In that case, I think it is enough for us to enjoy gambling games, especially if we don't chase victory and just want to find the fun factor of playing gambling. But we are only humans who can easily be tempted by the amount of money we get from that victory so that it will continue to tempt us to be able to get other wins. Stopping after we win will be better for us to relieve the increased emotions because we see the winning money we have managed to get.

As long as we only use gambling as part of having fun in our free time and not chasing winnings, we can avoid the greed and addiction that can arise after we have played for a while and can win some money. The casino will eventually win and get big winning money but we can also get it and withdraw it as long as we can remember to stop after winning. If you can do this, you can play gambling in peace and will not be influenced by the temptations that will come your way.

Timing is your advantage if you want to earn something decent from this kind of business or activities that you are tied in, if you know when to go out while you still in a favorable situation, winning is something that you needed to control, but likewise, that adrenaline inside you always push you to keep trying either to win or to recover just like what I've said it's not always greed and if you know how to timing and know how to work with your self-control, you can survive and limit the potential of losing huge amount of your capital.

Greed makes a lot of wins disappear in an instant and I'm sure many gamblers have experienced it for years if they don't quit after winning. I've experienced it and even quite often, it's about winning in slots where at that time I've managed to win more than 100% of the value of my account balance. Let's say I have $100, and during a gaming session that balance increases to $220 but since I thought I could still win, I caught my guard not to realize that at the end of the session I just had to go out without a win.

So quitting after a win I think is good for gamblers, and coming back tomorrow on a win or a loss is one of the recommended ones. But actually winning and losing is a natural thing but losing is quite often disappointing even if it's just for fun.

Losing streaks are happening at most times and that's coming at most often times.

You can describe it as not greed but it do comes when you're at your best time like when you're on a winning streak. But when you're losing, you won't think about it but instead, you'll think about recovery.

Yeah, you're not greedy when you're losing but you want to take it back and that's hard to stop when you've become eager and still has some money remaining on your hand that you're willing to lose.

I don't think it is healthy to chase losses or play the next session with the aim of recovering losses.  We should always start our next session with fresh things in our minds, forgetting the previous events whether we win or lose.  So I think it is better to just enjoy the game and just let luck decide the fate of our session.  Of course, we should also consider a proper bankroll management so that we can enjoy our gambling sessions much longer.

If I gamble im not thinking of the past losses because it can only change the mood and its not right to try recovering what you have lost already it can only lead to more losses if you're not lucky to win. So if ever such lucky day happen wherein im in winning streak then I will continue playing. Its a rare moment so I'll just take advantage it. Then if suddenly things are turning sour I will call it quits and just enjoy my winnings. I experienced it before and I think its not because you're greedy to win, its just that such moment if not often come.

Most players are caught in the trap of wanting to recover from past losses or wanting to recover their initial capital after a losing streak. in the end it's hard to control myself at least that's what I often experience. Experience has taught me not to do the same thing, although sometimes it's hard to control myself when I'm overcome with anger due to many defeats. So throw away all the desire to return the losses that have been suffered, if I am lucky to get consecutive profits I will control myself so as not to get caught in bigger bets and result in defeat. I can come back later or at least some time later.

Well, we do learn from our mistakes but when it comes to greed, everyone can repeat the same mistakes and it can even be worse than before. We can never get consecutive wins every day or every time we play because it depends on our luck and we already know that. But sadly, we are still trying to get more wins and if we lose, we still want to recover from that loss instead of pausing to ease the tension.

I think this a common experience that happens to most people,  after losing money in gambling severally,  the interest for gambling will be no more and their will be decision taking not to come back to gambling but after some few time , that feeling to play gamble will come. Most times when it happens like this that's the time I will my game,  maybe it is my to win.
