Gambling gave us a lot of mixed feelings and emotions after we play,
 - we feel excited when we make a profit
 - entertained when we never expect or lose or win and gave us entertaining results,
 - depressed when we expect or our goal to play is to win and we have a strategy to do that but we failed and lose our money
 - Feel sorry when we already win a jackpot but decided to extend and continue playing thinking that its' our lucky day but
   eventually, lose everything.
 - Excited to come back because you want to get the roller coaster ride of winning and losing.
   What Is Your General Feeling After Playing In Casino In the last 10 sessions?

The final 10th session was yesterday night for me,after winning 4 out of my 5 sports bet I decided to play one of my favorite slot machines The Green Knight from Play n Go and I won 200% of my amount,I played from 21.45 to 23.59 with bets ranging from 0.10 to 0.40 max (which I should not do,keep playing with the lowest bet will make the algorithm of the game behave differently-this is a superstition of mine although I am not superstitious) and I won really slow so in the end I came out with the first feeling,excited to finally have made a profit although not as big as I planned.

I'm always excited to come back after my sessions and the majority of my sessions are like that I experienced winning in my first minutes then losing everything then regaining half of my wager then losing it all, the feeling of enjoyment is like a roller coaster ride you win you want to quit but you want to continue the excitement, I'm just glad that I'm using money that I'm comfortable losing, which should always be the case.

I am very careful about gambling, as I am afraid of the possibility of becoming an addicted player (I have seen examples of people with whom this happened). Therefore, I prefer sports betting, and in general, I do not make it in order to earn money, but in order to add emotions when watching the game. The last time I bet on the game Real - Eintracht, but the game was so one-sided that I did not even have time to get nervous about my win.

I generally feel a sense of contentment and I'm entertained every single time. I don't gamble for a profit, I gamble to kill the hours ahead of me since I don't have anything else to do in the weekends anyway. The entertainment it gives me for a few hours is enough for me to forget about it for the whole week until I remember that I need to do something on the weekends. For sports betting that is a different thing. It always gives me something to look forward to especially if the sport/game that I'm watching is one that I've been following for a long time.

I just want to be entertained I experienced my lowest esteem in trying to capture or regain my previous losses I'm past that stage I just want to play at the right time and at my convenience with money that I can afford to lose, the casino you're playing would like you to be like that received a good feeling and be entertained, although there is always temptation to wage more and extend your playing time but it challenged your maturity in gambling.

I have played for more than 10 session on this month but the feeling I've felt on my last gambling session was Excitement. It is mainly because I've won on my last gambling session and have experienced winning streak on my dice game. However, I've voted for "Entertainment" due to the fact that my feelings often change per session depending if I won or lose or even won a huge amount but end up losing everything. I always gets entertained on most of my gambling activities either I win or not.

Winning is a major key that triggers us to continuous playing after the final 10th session it was like no lose should come though i experienced little challenge but i make a replay to cover up my lapses since it was for entertainment and for fun purpose i never applied much feeling, affection.

Well, just a little bit excited and nervous about the possible outcomes during the comeback. It is actually a mixed emotion but as a gambler, I already know that gambling isn't for making money but just a sort of entertainment and pleasure. As I come into gambling again, I know already how to control my addiction, I can manage to keep my emotions and not get angry when I lose, unlike in the old days.

I think you need to add nothing happens ;D

At least that's how I feel after playing at the casino in the last few sessions. I don't feel like that in that choice and tend to be nothing happen because I'm not after anything in gambling. I just want to play gambling without any reason so whatever the result, I don't think about it.

Maybe some will be excited to come back again on another occasion because they find fun in playing gambling.

I gamble for fun and i enjoy it so i feel as Entertained when i plying in casino in the last 10 session. winning or loss it is doesn’t matter for me . i just enjoy my free time by gambling. And the rest of the money which money I don't need for my daily expenses, I spend on gambling. And through this I enjoy temporary happiness.

Just the same as what you have listed, I feel depressed when I lost money to gambling and I am very excited when I win, but that was before when I put all my money into gambling. Unlike now that it is fun, though I am not happy if I lose, but I am neither sad too and not depressed at all, I still have a good feeling.

Winning can trigger a lot of people to continue gambling, but the experienced people are not affected by both, also experienced people would win more than lose too as they are facing the reality of gambling than people that gambles often all day.

Started picking up on slots and have been playing although not still very regularly. In my last 10 sessions, I won something good just once but I didn't feel sad that I had lost more money by loosing more times than I won, I wasn't happy about it either, I just had the feeling of entertainment, after all that was my motivation and purpose for playing in the casino in the first place. Say my motivation had been solely to make money, I definitely would have been sad, possibly depressed. Plus I played with an amount that I could afford to loose and could spare for entertainment so it didn't get to me much.

Something that are bothering me lately is the "depressed" feeling I get when I win something big. You expect that you should be very happy and relieved when you win something big, after you grinded for weeks for that win, but when you get that win, you feel "empty".

I think the RTP on most casinos are so bad lately, that the period between big wins are so long, that people start to feel "cheated" and "disappointed" when they eventually win something. (If I gambled and lost say $5000 over 7 days and then win $1000... that win will actually feel like a $4000 loss)  ::)

Mostly entertained. Sure I do feel sad when I lose money and I feel happy when I win, but I pretty much leave those feelings behind whenever I stop gambling. Win or lose, it's just a matter of me trying to enjoy the process. I do sometimes extend my sessions depending on what I generally feel though, like if I'm feeling pretty excited after I was supposed to end, I'd probably add a few more minutes into my game till I lose that excitement. I generally don't want to put my excitement out there while I finish gambling already since expectations may build up, so I just release it there and then.

I think that gambling is not good.  After that many people gamble but there are some rules in gambling if one gambles regularly then he will not be able to improve in his life.  And if one gambles for pleasure then there will be no problem.  I don't know if anything will happen but I think it is better to refrain from it but I also gamble as a hobby.  But till today I have never been able to make such a profit, I have always lost

Just the same as what you have describe, if I win, then definitely I'm happy with it and maybe goes on the next session. But if I lose, then, depression sets in, regrets. But nevertheless, have some fun and at the end of the day, I can still sleep.

Unless the can't afford that money that you lost in gambling, then that's where the problem will arise.

But for the majority of those who have control and only play with chance money then it will be fine.

My general feeling is a comeback after losing multiple bets in a row, mostly I stop to play after I hit a good multiplier, so it will cover the previous bet I'm losing. I feel excited when a comeback happen, that's the part where I view gambling is for fun. It's not only on gambling, but in sports, video games etc an epic comeback is the most interesting part. Feeling depressed isn't good, because gambling shouldn't make you sad.

I think all the feeling is just based on the result.

If lose you're mad & depresion, If you win from gambling then you're happy but with some additional (Gonna to comeback again). Always like that, because gambler always give the money back he was winning from casino to the casino again.

That's why, If you win a lot money : GO BUY SOME PHYSICAL STUFF (Trust me is work all-the time).

When I play in a casino and continue to lose, maybe for like 5 consecutive times, I tend to stick with the option I've been at, making similar pattern of stakes believing that, if it didn't have previous occurances, the next present one or next one would be the one. The next you know, you find me making the same stake on the same option, hoping for the multiplier to com through wth some recovery on lost bets and most times, its never the case. I get to loose even more but the good news has always been, I never get to increase my stakes with hopes of recovery and each time, I gamble only what I could afford to spare and nothing more. Once it's done, I am done.
I never get to be so pained on what the occurance at the days end or session might be, just a little fun and hurt mixed.

Why exactly 10 session? Is there a scientific study that makes difference between 10 session to other number?

I can’t remember exactly my last 10 session experience but my first 5 session makes me excited every time I play but the session after that just makes feel to chase to losses. The longer I play makes my desire to become greedy until I start to stop and rethink what I actually doing. My main purpose to gamble is just to have fun but the longe I’m exposed doing it makes me addicted on playing it by chasing losses.

I prefer to be entertained your mindset and your motivation will set the trend of your game and luck before you log in and bet, its better this way no expectation of winning just go with the flow of the bet of course you need to set up a strategy also this is a money game but don't force yourself if you used up all your wager then its time to go, once I am not enjoying the game and have something other things to do I just log off and just come back, you should set up your habit and once you do you are good to go.

For now I'm feeling a little depressed on last 3 sessions, hoping to win with some strategy but the hope is gone, maybe it's not the strategy that's wrong, but my mind is too carried away by mood on gambling. The day after tomorrow I will try my best so as not to fail, and will not expect to win or lose, I will gamble with a happy heart because I believe it will bring unexpected profits as well.

"Sad, shouldn't play anymore because I keep on loosing"
Honestly am having streak of losses, I was winning a lot hands down and from 10$ I made 50$ and then decided to test my luck a bit more and ending up loosing everything.

This has happened to me before as well since I go crazy one am winning in streaks and then I end up mourning the loss and give up gambling for a while and then use the extra 10-15$ in a month or so. I do think gambling as a whole is honestly a tricky thing and only some of us are lucky enough to win ! Therefore if you are actually one of them then am envious of you!

Recently, I always feel entertained after playing regardless of the outcome, but back then i'd probably go with the other three choices as i've experienced them at one point since I used to play with a bigger bankroll and my feeling would depend on the overall record of my session. Now I always play with a small enough bankroll so even if I lose it doesn't give off a bad feeling and if I win i'd be happy to walk away with some extra cash.

I agree with you, it doesn't hurt to spend your winnings (while you still have it) if you're planning to give it back to the casino and continue to gamble.

That's the right thing to do, just enjoy the game and don't pressure your way to win, the worse thing is trying to win and chasing your losses, unexpected profit will come when you least expect it, we all want to win in the back of our mind, it will just come when we don't expect it, the expectation is what killing our enjoyment in gambling, we only enjoy it when we go to the flow but once we expect something we become disappointed.

I never going to feel that I need a comeback because its definitely can worse the things so the feeling will be simple if I win then its happy or if I lose then it will be sad that's it, I am not thinking about depressed or such kind of thing which can affect me mentally and financially.

In my last 10 gambling sessions, I just felt entertained simply because I had several losses and little winnings yet I still enjoyed playing. My main goal is to feel entertained and to seek comfort through betting after a long stressful week at work. I don't bet with huge funds and I know my limits so I don't usually have bug regrets in the end. Being a responsible gambler is always important.

It depends on the results of the 9 sessions before the 10th one.  ;D
For example, in poker, you won't be looking for a new table if you are feeling good at the first one. If the win keeps on coming, your rest will be just to pee and get food or drinks while sometimes they are also served to you.
But before, I tried 4 tables after being defeated in three of them. 4 times I replenished my chips and when I lose again I said to myself I am done for the night. Frustrated I went home and waited for another week to come back and tried to recover the losses.

I certainly agree with you. Gambling should be enjoyed and we must not let it be the source of negative emotions. We should not allow it to consume the energy that we have. If we lost then we have to accept it and move forward. Chasing our losses will make us lose more so we have to control our emotions. It's okay to feel disappointed sometimes but we should not let negativity consume us.

I would be entertained if that's how long I am gambling instead of being depressed since we know that gambling is not in your favor. As many people say that house always win and that's proven many times already. When you are gambling you shouldn't thought that you can get rich easily but there are some people who are very lucky to win huge amount.

When you play for fun you don't feel depressed when you lose and also another thing is if you are playing with a very low bankroll then you won't feel any negative impact of such lose. If we play moderately there won't be depression but taking high unnecessary risk just for greedy mind, we feel the outcome.

Well, it really depends on the situation whether I lose or I win. But most the time I often feel tired after playing maybe because I only play after work or if I am having my off after shift. My social battery in casino gets drained very fast as well , that's why I prefer to play online nowadays, so I can rest right after the game. I don't feel sad when gambling because playing or gambling is considered to be my rest.

I personally am entertained in some of the gambling that I do. I feel tired and bored that I experience today can feel light when gambling.
For me gambling is just entertainment in my spare time, not a place to double money in a short time, because honestly I used to think like that but it was bad for the health of my money.

I am happy and more than entertained because I made some profit in my last 10 sessions.  It may be not be that huge but at least I enjoyed my gambling session free of losses.  Even with my winning streak, I still need to control my gambling urges since it would be disastrous if it keeps out of hand.  Winning is good but gambling addiction would eat it all.  So we must gamble in moderation in order for us to enjoy our gambling activities to the full extent without worrying of turning into a problem gambler.

I am entertained, it might be a rough thing for me since I have my series of losses in the last 10 session but I can't deny that I was really entertained.  It was very entertaining because I explore varieties of slots checking how they works in every gambling session I did. 

I am mainly engaged in betting, so for the last betting sessions I can say that everything was as usual without any special emotions - I treat this as a mathematical competition. But one event (which ruined 4 of my multi-bets at once) really affected me - a draw between Liverpool and Fulham. I had a desire to win back the losses, but in the end it didn’t materialize and I made bets according to the planned schedule.

I like it, because the fiat currency casinos I stick with offer lots of free bets and promotion opportunities which basically guarantees free money. It does not earn large amounts but if you're consistent it can pay off. I probably earn about $250-500 a year from them - up to $10 per week from sports betting offers, along with a fair chunk of change from free games. Used to earn more but other casinos banned me after seeing only withdrawals on my account for a longtime. So there is no other way than to be happy, you might only earn little amounts but the trick is not to be wasteful and give it back to them for no reason. There are plenty of offers and if you want an occasional small gamble, go for sensible bets with a very nice payout (like 1 goal making a football game into a draw, which pays out x7 or x8)

Feeling on anticipated results which is losing in the end which i do make myself prepared so that you wont really be that getting frustrated in the end of the day just because you are expecting something
when you do play gambling. General feeling would be something like this and never anticipate that you would win something or get out with smiling face because even if you do play for fun but still
wont really be an assurance that you would come out smiling and enjoying the game.Its never been fun when you do lose money even you would be saying that you are playing for entertainment
but it wont really be that something entertaining in the end of the line.

I really don't know which one to select, I actually gamble for entertain purpose.  If I talk about my feelings of last ten season then most of your poll happened to me.  A few times I have won and lost because of greed, I have regretted because of it, but still have an excitement works inside me through it.  But at the end of the day, I am not that serious gambler, my main purpose of gambling is entertainment.

Most likely I feel entertained, and I would want to come back again for another experience, and of course to increase my winnings. I guess no matter how you win or lose in the game, but the fact that you enjoy the game and had a roller coaster experience, that deserves to have another interesting comeback. Well, it’s another advantage that you only play what you can afford to lose, that makes it less worrying and more comfortable to play.

It is right that, Those who gamble regularly and become addicted to gambling cannot make any progress in life. Gambling is a bad addiction that can ruin someone's life. Because of this, I sometimes decide to quit gambling.  Although gambling is not my addiction just entertainment

Its been a while since i gambled a whole day but with those experiences again, before I play gambling, of course, the fear once the game starts it is all about the wage and if you lose at the first game for sure you will doubt the next coming wage and decision you make but once you will of course another set of game and anxious to win. When I play I always manage the amount only I will gamble to make sure that my funds are still safe in addiction.

For me it has always been a mixed feeling. I can't categorically place a general feeling on my casino experience because most of the times i get entertained but it rarely ends there because it get mixed with either feeling sorry and eventually tries out a couple of luck again and might end up losing more than i won or feel excited to comeback because i might be picturing some new tactics i will like to try out some other day

It doesn't take 10 sessions to experience the feelings @OP wrote about because if we win, we'll be happy, entertained and excited for a comeback.
But if we lose, we will be depressed, feel sorry, disappointed, and feel sorry for ourselves.
I think these feelings will appear after we play for a while but if we can control our gambling game, we probably won't feel that feeling too much.
What is clear is that playing gambling for too long and for a long time can also make us addicted and if we are addicted, we may feel angry when we experience defeat.

For me the beginning of the week will be good and entertaining. My long term wish was to have an entertaining weekend. Till date out of some situation and loss of control the weekend becomes frustrated. Myself used to try some tactics and tricks, the best I've succeeded is making $700 out of $7. The sad part I wasn't able to make it profitable.

Lately I have rarely been actively involved with online gambling activities. Nonetheless, I was entertained with some soccer bets even though I didn't make much profit.
maybe this week and the next will be different, because it's a new season in football. I can't wait to see each of my favorite big teams, especially when it comes to betting.

for other types of gambling, I always avoid some gambling games such as slot machines, dice, roulette especially baccarat, mostly when I play those games that I mentioned, I often find it difficult to stop and end the gambling session regardless of winning or losing.

I think every casino gambling all has different tricks and luck when you can get that much profit then not necessarily other people can imitate your luck because each user has a different code and it is possible that the account you have includes an account that often gets lucky and everyone has a different fortune or luck so congratulations to those of you who can make that much profit from gambling places.

I think you already mentioned the usual feelings after playing.

If there are other general feelings, I'm curious what are those.

In my last gambling sessions, I've been winning and losing. With that, no more feelings already as it's like just another day in the office. I will just continue on my usual without affecting my other chores or things to do outside gambling. That's how I treat my gambling session.

Yeah, that's why I've realized some unexpected problems in my life as well as close friends when gambling, chasing defeat can be disastrous even more so if we owe it to moneylenders its so bad. Saving some budget for gambling and gambling again without being based on a calm mind will make me personally more depressed with the certainty of losing 100%.

That's odd but why will you come back and play again if you know that you won't feeling anything? Are you suffering on some kind of obsessive disorder like ocd? Other than those who play for fun, some are also excited to come back because they think they can win this time if they haven't win last time or they think they can win again if ever they already win on their previous session.

Maybe the op can also add "feeling contented" on his poll choices because this is what I am feeling lately whenever I am done playing a gambling. I have this urge to gamble so what I do is just allocate small amounts only to cure this urge I am feeling and then ill be contented after it.

I think you should add another option in the poll of "feeling dissatisfied" with the results. Being dissatisfied does not entirely that they feel depressed, as the latter connotes a more emotional and deep loss due to their gambling activities.

Personally, what I feel after playing in the casino in the last 10 sessions depends on the outcome. Most of the time, my winnings are just balanced by the wins and losses; there were also times were I felt dissatisfied since I lost some cash; and there were also times were I was ecstatic due to winning relatively large amounts of winnings in one night.

Good point. Today is a big day for betting (football) and I've already made a few risky and "safe" bets and, as sometimes happens, "safe" bets have been disappointing. But some others are still in business and since game day is in full swing I can't say yet whether I'm happy or not today. In any case, if we take a whole day for a gaming session, and not a couple of separate bets, then we can say that such a session completely erases the impression of previous sessions because it is a rather large-scale phenomenon. Naturally, I mean my subjective impressions.

I'm not really sure where "regret" fall under what emotions on the list so I think it is one that is not mentioned. It something that I usually feel when I've won a huge amount however I ended up losing everything as I continue to gamble. I hated that feeling as it feels like on a rollercoaster ride where I started with happiness and excitement but end up depressed and overthink things such as why I continue playing.

Anyways, I've already overcome that feeling as I usually don't try my luck whenever I already won. It's a good thing that my gambling activities doesn't hinder any of my daily tasks and emotion anymore as I feel the same thing as yours now.

The OP is right. I am not happy when I lose or let's put this this way, when I do not win 100% back of the money I put in. However, I always look forward to play slots, not because I am addicted to it but  because it seems to me as if there's always something new to learn. In addition, maybe this excitement may turn into anxiety if I play any other game say poker but for slots, it's always a mix of excitement and adventure.

I'd say relaxed, content, and entertained. gambling has been a great way for me to relieve stress, pass time, or entertain myself. losing doesn't really bother me that much since I can afford to lose the money I gamble but when I win and ending up with a profit it does make me happy and would usually be on a happier mood after my gambling session.

^ This was also in my mind, and not only for the 10th session but I repeatedly use the gambling casino if I know they are reliable ones and should be trusted. I gambled after my work, it will relieve my stress, especially at night when boredom strikes and I cannot sleep and it seems gambling will help in that way, after a session it feels me asleep. Probably I feel this way because I did not gamble the majority for the money, I gamble because I want to have fun and entertainment, win or loss I don't mind.

Looking back at my history, its like 3/10 won and obviously I should not be happy because I lose more money than what I make but then again since I do gamble occasionally and with a limited budget, I still find myself entertained and contented. I’m not chasing any loses because I know once I gamble my money is bound for that and this has been my mindset since then, if I can’t take a win that’s ok I just need to focus more on the entertainment side and just have fun, winning in gambling is not guaranteed at all so better not to take it seriously.

Only 10 sessions! In my case it is not necessary to be evaluating me for such short periods, and even less I think about how I feel for the result of a session or 10.

That is, it is only a value that determines your proceeding in the strategy, if you must make changes, if you are testing new things or simply  a negative or positive balance, it is just that, the losses are normal in the game and recover (profits ) It is the balance of your game.

They even depend on your seccions, if they are short, you have to learn to receive information without emotional states involved or that the period in which it affects you has nothing more than only minutes.

I voted for Excited To Comeback, hehehe.  Win or lose, we are always looking for the next sessions, sports betting, card games and even slots. Specially if you end your previous sessions with a good win, for sure you will want to come back for more. And then if you lose, well, at least you enjoy but at the back of your mind, you are thinking to make a comeback and recover what you have lost.

I am very much entertained.  I happen to discover that on stake.com, playing in Php currency can play Thunderkick games in as low as Php0.50.  So I take my time enjoying thunder kick games in a longer period of time with just $2 bankroll. That is like Php 100+ bankroll which can have 200+ spins.  So with that 200 spins, I am able to explore all the Thunderkick games on stake. Among the Thunderkick games, I enjoyed Gods of Rock, Odin gambling, Toki time and Shifting Seas a lot.

if there's something very important that I always say to myself: you shouldn't put feelings in the game and you shouldn't be sad when you lose, because the moment we feel sad when we lose, then we start looking to win to recover the losses and that's it. the beginning to the precipice, the person just sinks and reaches a point where he lost everything and begins to make debts to continue playing thinking he will recover the damage. In my case I try not to think about the damage and loss, I try to keep calm and focus on the next game and I bet normally

I kind of understand what he's trying to say, if you play with a bankroll that's small enough you'll eventually start to care less about the result, and maybe it's one way for him to quickly move on if it's a losing session.

Sometimes you can't help but prefer to not feel anything while gambling knowing you're expected to lose and it's not always easy to have fun when losing so you'd rather stay calm. I don't want to sound negative but it's better to not have expectations when coming back and instead view it as a fresh start.

My bets are basically on sports games and spread throughout the week on the best European and Brazilian championships, so I don't think I can say about my feeling in the last 10 sessions why it doesn't exist for me.
However, I confess that I lose a lot more than I gain, and my feeling is that I should be risking more, but my self-control prevents me from throwing more money away.

Most of the time entertained after such a long session.
Then if there's a bad streak of loss, try to think about how it happened and why.

This may also vary from how the gambler plays the game. If its daily, then maybe it will not be that entertaining anymore but stressful. For those who are just gambling occasionally though, it will be a lot of fun. I like to do it just whenever I feel so and it becomes a stress reliever or if I am just looking for ways to be away from home even for just a couple of hours.  ;D

I often gamble using only the money that I can afford to lose so regardless of the result im still satisfied and feel entertained. Gambling is my way to have fun and im playing during my day off from work or if I have spare time to gamble but this is if I have the money meant for my leisure, I have monthly budget set for it.

I can say im only entertained in my last 10 sessions. I was not able to win so I dont have happy moments to recall.

I literally burned my last few deposits... I don't feel depressed about that, but for sure I'm not happy about that either! So I guess I bought myself some entertainment, I played slots mostly and I managed to hit some bonus rounds (which is nice) but didn't have enough luck to score some big hit! We can't win all the time!

Well, today I will try some football games... maybe I will have more luck with betting on sports! A lot of good games to choose from, a day just started so we have plenty of time for some researching!

I didn’t feel anything. It was just a way of passing the time and that 10 sessions served their purpose. It didn’t even matter if I won or lost. I don’t even remember the amounts because the winnings or losses were nothing significant. I don’t wager more than I could afford to lose. It is against my gambling philosophy. Most people lose their control and wager too much. Obviously they get mad when they lose. It doesn’t happen to me.

I enjoy gambling.  And my feeling is very happy while gambling. But when I lose gambling, I become very upset without knowing it . But then I try to keep myself calm.  And try to reduce gambling addiction. But sometimes again I get involved in gambling. Although I understand that gambling is a bad addiction but still I cannot quit gambling.

@fortunecrypto, do you have any plans to add 'Curiosity' after betting at the casino, I have a feeling like that if I lose a casino bet, remembering what friends said they won big in the casino.

What is certain is that moody and happy feelings occur in casino bets in win and lose conditions, these two factors have something to do with the casino, of course I enjoy every casino game on the gambling site that I bet on.

I have been gambling regularly in the last few years and still enjoy it today. From my last 10 sessions I don't remember anything particular out of the ordinary. There are days where I am winning and days where I am losing. My gambling budget per week is pretty tight which limits my potential loss I can have. In the last two month I think I only hit my loss threshold twice. What I do remember from my last few gambling session is a nice poker hand where I won 9 USD with Q10 in hearts. For me gambling tends to have different phases, sometimes I play more blackjack and roulette and sometimes poker. Right now I am in a poker phase again. I don't have so much time in the evenings so I mainly play cash games. You can sit down or stop playing anytime you like, it's a good way to entertain myself after work.

It's not like that.

The majority are coming back because of only one thing, and that's to win and not to lose. And as we come back, it only means that we came from either of the two, from a win or a loss.

But most likely, we're coming back due to the losses that we've made and that's what we want to achieve back and that is to win some money again. That's why I think that we're coming back not to lose but to win although it's always part of gambling to lose.

After the last 10 sessions ? Not sure it’s been any different than the last 10 sessions before that or the 10 sessions before those 10 sessions, to me I honestly pretty much keep an even keel when it comes to gambling and my emotions. I never bet much more or much less so regardless win or lose I tend to stay pretty even in terms of emotions during “10 session gambling blocks”.

There's always a feeling of excitement in gambling every time we gamble because we always hope to be lucky and win the bets. Although its not that all the time we won and make profits, as we end up losing in most of the time, but the fact that we only gamble in moderation and only gamble the amount we can afford to lose, that makes it more exciting to come back to gamble again. I guess in all gamblers out there, once we experienced winnings at first, that's enough reason to become excited to gamble again.

I guess, we have the same sentiments when it comes to this kind of feeling.
The emotion doesn't vary much as I play within my means.
Of course, the feeling of entertained, disappointed and others will always be there.
But in general, nothing much of a difference in all of my sessions of gambling.
But based from the poll, most are saying that they feel entertained, I hope that's true though.  ;)

The essence of gambling is to take risks. You may win or you may lose and sometimes the outcome is a mixture of both. Gambling should be treated as entertainment, if it impacts your personal life or finances in an negative way then it's better to put a stop to it sooner than later. Most gamblers are after the thrill that gambling gives and are not too bothered by their losses as long as they can walk away feeling happy or entertained in general.

Some time ago I joined the casino but I won the jackpot a lot of money. I gambled hoping to get more because I was in the mindset that all I needed was money. I was greedy.was born But once I lost everything gambling, my man worked in it, so I reached my mental state.

But after I lost everything I gambled, this time I realized that ambition can never be achieved because of which I lost everything. The destitute state of gambling still haunts me today.

When man loses in gambling in the first place, he loses only because of greed. He doesn't want to come back from gambling when he can win once or twice. Then, while making extra people, he becomes destitute at one point. If he can decide within a short period of time that I won't play even after winning twice. Thus those who gamble are doomed . When we win then the feeling is different but after losing the whole feeling changes.

Being entertained is the goal of both casinos and players but when we gamble we bring with it our character if we have a risky behavior chance is we become compulsive in our bets and decisions if we are mature guys we become responsible and treat gambling as another form of entertainment, gambling should not hone us, our education outside of casino should be our guide in everything.

Agreed, but this will not work with common gamblers like me. This might be the truth with majority of the gamblers. I get into gambling with a limit of $10, this initially turns to be a small amount and I won't think of it. When the same continue for few days it turns to be a big money. By now the mind thinks why don't we recover what we've lost. This is where things happen in the opposite way. Some find lucky whereas the majority end up losing mory. It is not much about greed, but about the pain of losing.

I voted for entertained. That's exactly what I felt. Of course I also felt excited to come back but I guess that's second to being entertained especially because I can only come back when I have extra money. I don't play in casinos regularly. I play very seldom. I'm normally entertained with dice, baccarat, and blackjack. But one of the reasons why I am entertained more than felt sorry or depressed is that I can only spend so much. I can only afford to lose a small amount. If I lost big, I guess I would be coming out sorry.

I am a casual gambler and try to take it as an entertainment purpose so i don't expect much from gambling here. I don't have any big wins in my gambling history. Since I don't want much here, I gamble small amounts where I don't get disappointed even if I lose. I've won 7 out of the last 10 sessions in this regard i consider it positively.

you have to add one feeling and that is Disappointed , like me in which normally gamble because of wanting to enjoy and win but since I often lose my funds then that is what brings me to fell disappointed than sad or anything that you mentioned in the poll.

and also  , there are only few that will choose happy because that is the truth , also entertained? that is one of the most words delivered by those who has good funds in their pocket.

thats a good wins mate, 7 out of ten? when i mostly have 2 out of 10 lol.

congrats if that is your winning ratio .

Gambling can easily make a man sound and make a man poor in a very short time. If we can refrain from gambling it is good for us but I think those who are involved in gambling are the reason why there is no peace.  Gambling is an extra stress to be on top of. I also like gambling because no one has ever made a profit by gambling, they always have to be in a loss.  We will therefore try to refrain from gambling.  Do not gamble.  It is a bad addiction.

Feeling excited to come back even though there have been quite a few defeats, but indeed gambling is quite tempting to continue, especially when there are interesting things offered by the casino because the bonuses or promos offered by the casino open up opportunities for us to get more.

It's rare for me to see a gambler like you dude with that kind of attitude. I just saw that while gambling, apart from having fun, you are also comfortable even if in the end you lose playing casino gambling. I admire your attitude like that. It's like it's so hard to feel comfortable with the joy of losing. Let me try what you do. Keep it up Sir.


We feel the same way about that, I'm really having fun, though, I can't get out of my mind that I hope I get lucky playing and get the jackpot in casino gambling. But even though I often lose in the end, there is still something that I regret, and I think that in my next game I will be lucky and get the prize.

No one will be happy when loosing mate, so it depends what will be the situation or the results afterwards .. Lol and to be honest with you when I'm playing casino way back 2019, i really want to win and losing isn't acceptable for me until i realise it just a game of luck so i decided to minimise my time in it especially when it comes the machine games..  ;D

It's actually pretty normal if you go outside of gambling and go into the general idea of a "gaming" experience. I guess casinos take it to a next level since it involves money but if you consider it, simple gaming kind of involves money as well since you use your time to play it. It isn't that obvious but they should really be taken in as the same thing imo.

I mean you can be risky in casinos imo, just keep it in there and don't bring anything else inside or outside once you start a session. It's just simply letting yourself loose at an environment you want BUT limiting yourself in that specific environment.

As long as you are ready for any risk before you started your very first gambling session, you wont be sad as well. However it is normal to feel sad at the time of losing especially for those who use gambling as a tool to make money only and do not care about the entertainment part of the gambling. Voted for "Exited to comeback" although my last 10 sessions was done long time ago. Now I'm not gambling much, only once a week with very small amount of starting bankroll.

Losing for a 10 consecutive times can lead to a depression and I remember myself on this scenario right before the pandemic hits, I'm playing in a casino to relieve some stress but it turns out that gambling can't help me with this and the result is more worst. We are just human and that emotion is pretty normal especially if you lose money without even a chance to fight for it, well this is gambling and we should accept that fact and move forward, better to take this as a lesson and don't gamble with too much expectation.

Yeah, casual gambler like us is not yet fully affected I am not saying that being disappointed after losing or when we lose is not yet existent I am just saying that if we really treat gambling as our only entertainment and limit our spending even though we're playing for long if we lost we will feel sad of course but we will not be disappointed too much since we know that losing is part of the game. We may be tired of course.

Gambling indeed gives us a wide range of feelings since it involves our emotions at peak level.
We become happy when we win, sad when we lose and angry when we chase losses.
Talking about my feeling from the last 10 sessions it was moderately okayish for me.
I didn't lose much nor did I win much. So I was kind of excited to comeback in the hope to win something the next time.

That is painful and makes the gambler feels the unluckiest person alive. Even though we accept a loss scenario, it's not easy to accept the fact of losing 10 consecutive gambling sessions in a roll. Personally for me it's disturbing and discouraging to think something like that could happen to me. On that situation I would give a long break from gambling until all those negative sensations settle down inside myself.

I can say that I have experienced all of these emotions while gambling in a casino, though I only played in an online casino. But after all of that, feeling sorry or depressed when losing, or excited and happy when winning, I guess I am still eager to gamble more or come back for more. That roller coaster ride of emotions makes me want it more. But maybe it is just me because I played for a long time already and it already became a habit for me to play or gamble. That even if I lose I can still play the next day. Though, I admit, that I have to control my betting habit because if it gets out of control, it will mess up my life.

Gambling could really bring you on a roller coaster ride of emotions. It will excite you, and make you feel anxious, depressed, happy, and so on but the important thing is, that you would know how to control your emotions. You should be the one to control your emotions or else it will be the one to control you as well as your decisions which will ruin things later on.

I don't remember that i ever lost 10 consecutive times in any gambling game. If you lose 10 games in a row, it remains that you are very bad on your luck and it is better to leave gambling for some time. Usually giving the break, will give you some time to yourself and also people start winning once they give some break.

Wow this is good winning. If you win 7 out of 10 sessions then that is really lucky for you. I won only 3 out of my last 10 sessions.  And lost remaining 7 bets and I have big loss there. I was depressed for some days due to this. i lost almost 1.5k usd in this month. it was my hard worked money

It depends on the outcome of those sessions, if the winnings ratio is higher than the losses then that will make my entire feeling to be happy and I'd be happy to go back again to play more. But if it's the opposite then that's sad and the opposite feeling as well.
Those results are going to vary and that's also why our feelings vary on what we like to do, emotions do click in based on those results too and we can't alter that if we're having several bad days.

I always feel joy and entertainment after the sessions. I like to play and even if I lose a little bit. I've never lost a large amount, but I haven't won much either

Most days I walk away after playing in the casino a bit depressed, regardless of whether I win or not just because I have to walk away  ::)

Maybe I should be giving my daily gambling habits at least a small pause before they become anything that resembles an "addiction" from someone elses point of view. I would not want people to start judging me or start feeling sorry for me.

Although whenever I make bigger wins I do walk away with a spring in my step and a smile on my face for the rest of the day. I guess its just the dopamine rush from winning though. Once that wears off, you will have less dopamine and that makes you sad/depressed again. Its just borrowing dopamine from tomorrow basically.

Satisfaction is the word that best suits the emotion I am having every time I'm done with my gambling session. I honestly don't play on casino's everyday because I've changed I guess? Every time I play I have a certain budget to spend and I am keeping myself in control in not exceeding my budget so I can't get depressed with the amount I can lose. What ever the result is, I feel satisfied because I ease the the tension of me wanting to play on a casino after days of not playing. I also don't count my losses or lose streak because It's a pain in the ass thinking about it. I just enjoy the games with all my might.

That's good, at least you can learn to control yourself and your emotions and already have a certain budget to play gambling.
We must be satisfied with whatever results we get from gambling because if not, we will be triggered to continue playing and ignore the results we will get. Even we can deposit another amount of money.
Thus we will not be drawn deeper into gambling and can still enjoy every gambling game.
This will also prevent the risk of gambling addiction if we do not have good control.

Gambling places have a lot of games and not just casinos so in my opinion you should be able to take advantage of various kinds of games to be able to make a profit because if you only gamble at the casino it will be difficult to make a profit, losses at gambling places have become a natural thing and make it a gambling place it as a place of entertainment so that when you lose you will not regret it.

When you do deal with gambling then expect for losses yet this had always becomes a part of it and if we do talk about casino games then we would be losing money in longer runs.

When you do lose money then it would really be just normal that you would really get frustrated and angry and if you arent that good on handling your emotion then it would really be worsen up the
situation.
If you do play just for the sake of entertainment and fun then go ahead but it cant be avoided with those emotional swings which you could really able to
feel out.

Before we lose a lot of money, it is very important always to limit the amount of money we want to use. Doing so will not be frustrated because we are trying to keep our money from running out. Playing gambling always requires money but that does not mean we have to use a lot of money every time we gamble so that we set how much money to gamble. With these restrictions, we can already feel how gambling is and can also get entertainment and pleasure in playing gambling. It will also prevent us from getting addicted to gambling later.

What makes you think it will prevent addiction? The emergence of an addiction has nothing to do with the amount of money you lose. Rather, it depends on how often you go to the casino, the games you play, your psychological state and the individual level of endorphins in your body.

Money control can only affect how much money you spend from your budget.

In my case it is a totally neutral feeling, because the best thing you can do when you play poker is to be as rational as possible and not let yourself be carried away by feelings at all, although we are human and this is not 100% possible. But it's almost like sitting down to read a book or, better, like solving crossword puzzles. It doesn't matter if I have losses in the session because I play EV+ and in the end this is reflected in the results.

Such an algorithm of actions probably implies not only setting a limit on loss, but also on winning? If you lost the allocated budget, then you should stop - this is understandable. But what if you win x10 of your budget? If you continue to gamble, you may become too gambler and get the addiction you are trying to avoid. Probably in such a situation, you should withdraw money and wait for the next gambling session.

Please understand first. I mean by regulating how much money to gamble, we can feel the fun and if we have got it, we can stop immediately. That is if your goal of gambling is to seek pleasure from gambling. But if your goal of gambling is to make a profit, even if you don't go to the casino very often, there is a good chance that you will spend a lot of money in one visit to the casino. While you can also get pleasure, once you have experienced it, there is a tendency to keep looking for it and get it. This can trigger addiction.

Yes, money control means controlling how much money you spend or spend from your budget. That means you can set the amount of your money to gamble.

If you win x10 of your budget, that's a pretty incredible amount and a rarity for many gamblers. That means you have to stop gambling immediately because if you don't, you will likely lose it all and many have proven it. It is very greedy if we continue to gamble while we have already profited x10 of our budget.
