I've seen one reply by our member so I just have to asked in cases that you are in a losing streak.

Do you continue to play on another game and think that maybe your luck will change? Like if you're playing black jack but suddenly you have a losing hand. Will you go and play on other games like slots and see if you can break that spell and at least taste a win?

Or will just quit and call it a day and doesn't want to play because you know that you are unlucky and that the casino doesn't want you to win (like they are watching you)?

There are two of this topic already but people will give the same answers.

I do not chase because I do not have the money to chase and because I do not want to gamble irresponsibly. I set my gambling budget and it is not more than $5 to $10 every week.

If the money has all been lost, I will stop gambling immediately and it is very easy for me to do.

Gambling on a usual expectations comes with losses, which everyone playing should have it in mind, having losses in a streak could signal that we should pause for some other time, while in other case, if we think the money involved will not cost us, we may continue, but never proceed in it with the expectation that you wanted to recover by chasing after the losses, this could turned everything to an unusual situation which we might not like seeing, someone like me don't even have to wait till am losing on a streak before applying sense on what to do.

If I still own my bankroll and haven't exceeded the daily cost, I absolutely change the game. If, however, I've encountered a losing hand and lost what I planned to play, I close the game directly so as not to get carried away by the excitement and continue playing.
In 99% this leads to the abyss and already once I understood it I don't want to fall back into the same mistake, I stop first and I'm safe.

That's a way of gambling responsibly and with such budget and determination to stop gambling when you lost your budget will also make you not to get addicted in gambling. Gamblers are supposed to have a budget amount of money when gambling but let it also be money they can afford to lose, many goes in chasing loss and they loss more.

My gambling budget for now is $7 i use it weekly some time i win with it, i have a another account for my gambling fund i have $49 in it now this weekend i will also use $7 from it i hope to add it up.

I'll probably try and play one more game, and if I see that nothing has change and I'm still losing money then maybe that is the cue to stop for now and reset. It's very hard if you are going to force yourself to win when there are indications that it might be a bad day for you.

Specially if I still have money left in my bankroll, I will not gamble that money away as I could have wasted it.

I will stop, if I continue to play uncontrollably with an excited attitude, I will lose everything, but I will not get anything useful from it. It can only cause more harm, but nothing will return to you, so you must take it with real logic, any decision made with emotion will lead to the wrong direction, and every step taken in this state will actually work against me. So it is better to accept the loss and stop gambling, otherwise the loss will only continue to grow.

There was a time I was chasing losses, sometimes I get lucky to recover them and make small profits but most of the time I will lose more. A little estimate of how many times I get lucky to recover them shows that it is not worth it for me. If I lose, I just accept it check if there was a mistake from my end and if not, then it becomes what gambling really is, a game that winning is not guaranteed. I will come back much later but I will try as much as possible not to use money that will get to me if lost. Chasing losses is not a good habit and every gambler should endeavor to avoid it to avoid getting hurt badly.

honestly I used to chase before thinking my luck would turn around if I switched games like from blackjack to slots or roulette but most of the time it just made me lose more and now if I’m on a losing streak I just stop and take it as a sign to cool off. There’s always another day to play and it feels better to walk away with a clear mind than to force a win, luck has its own timing no need to rush it.

It all depends sometimes, we may lose the more even when we switch while playing, while in some other conditions, things may then turn in our favour and we make a win, this should be our usual focus in gambling, because anything may happen either as we wish of them or contrary to what we thought of coming.

When you are losing for long time your heart is already compromised so, even though you try looking for another way to top it up you can never be that focused anymore because you already being soiled and compromised already, therefore, the best is to quit gambling for that very day and come back when you might have been stable in your heart and thinking, gambling deals with the mind and whenever the mind is affected your operation and thinking is also affected and you can't be that focused again to continue gambling.

When I lost a lot, I just stop, I never think that maybe my luck will change or things like that, but I don't stop for those reasons. I can't think that I'm unlucky and thinking that "casino doesn't want you to win " is a bit unwise, I would say. This is actually the other was round: casino wants you to win and spread the news so that other people joined the casino, people who would never join unless hearing about your win.

No, once the money I budgeted to gamble with that day is exhausted, I will just call it a day than fooling myself thinking that by playing more i can regain my losses.

 Though I have seen folks that normally did that, they go after their losses and in the process they lose even more, and the major cause of such actions is by gambling with what they can not afford to lose or sometimes it's because such persons is seeing gambling as a means of making money, because if you are not seeing it that way you wouldn't be risking more money just to regain back your losses, when it's obvious that your chances of losing even more is way higher than the chances of you winning.

Moving to the next game because we have had a losing streak then feeling things will be better there doesn't work that way. First you have to know if you are emotionally balanced to continue playing. We should understand that by the time we start to lose uncontrollably, we are likely to lose our mind and to take good gambling decision like gambling with risk management will not come to the mind anymore and what comes to the mind is chasing the loses. So we might still continue the chase if we move to the next game. The best thing to do when you have a losing streak is not to change game but to take a break and cool off to reset your mind and strategy.

It depends on the mindset of the gambler. If you lose regularly at a game, it will be annoying for you. To escape from the losing situation, you will choose a different game. You can expect to win by changing your gambling strategy. It is like a peace of mind but it is mostly controlled by luck so even if you apply strategy you cannot prevent losing.

I have not seen much change in winning or losing by changing the game. The casino is always using strategies to beat you. No matter how much strategy you apply by changing the game it's not very effective.

I would rather call it a day than going for another game because when you are on losing streak your luck might not be their again. So it'll be better for you to stop and take a break and refreshing for sometime before thinking of going for other games, although I don't even see any reason of changing the game because even if you change to another one you would still need luck to win the game. However, when a gambler is on unlucky it's obvious that losses is satting that's why we don't need to go more further than to wait till the next day.

Tbh that depends on the mood and the bankroll. Ahh, the speculation that you probably is lucky on the other game, that's more like chasing losses too, if let's say you're on 10-20 losing streak or your bankroll is more than half depleted when you started, its best to stop. I'd rather bet it one time and check my luck. I'm the type of player that really need a rest when I'm losing, it's so difficult to focus if you're losing then you'll mind to bet again, that's suicide.

Changing the game does not change the outcome. The games has being pre programmed and cannot be manipulated so it's best to know when best to hit the stop.

Taking a break would be the best option, to restrategize and take a cool off before placing the next bet.
Betting under the pressure of consecutive losses has a thing it does to one's way of reasoning and can only be avoided when one figures out the best way to bet.

If we follow that thought, we'll keep playing. I'm sure we've all experienced the thought, "Maybe I could win that game." That's a thought that always occurs when we lose, and even when we win, the thought, "Maybe I could win even more," also occurs.

So, like everyone else, I'll stop regardless of that thought, because if I follow that thought, I'll probably lose even more. While it's possible to win if we keep playing, what are the chances? I think it's very small.

Mostly, I will quit and not continue or move to other games. It will not be easy for me to recover my loss so quitting gambling is better for me. I can't break that spell and taste a win in the next games. If I move to other games, I am afraid that I can spend more than before. That can make my losses bigger than before. Even if we move to other games and win, I don't think that the win will recover our losses. But that is possible because if our luck comes, nothing can stop us from winning the money.

I don't have to chase meanwhile there's already a rule of responsible gambling that kicks against chasing losses and trying to recover from your lose. If I experienced a losing streak on a particular game, I will have to take a break and try again later, maybe when trying next time, I will play a different game but to experience a losing streak and immediately jump into a new game to attempt recovering you lose is not a smart move. Although some persons can be lucky if they try that, but the chance of being unlucky is also high. Everything can be lost.

When this happens someone is always drawn to to keep playing and keep trying to break the spell and see if they can return to winning ways and it takes a strong mind and discipline to be able to withstand the pressure but for me it's not really hard, this happens to me often and it does I don't continue playing or move to other games to try my luck, i just try a few times and then  I stop for the day and probably continue another day. My believe is that I might be on losing streak for some days but when that happens then my wins are close by and the more I try to force it back the more money I lose. So it's better to keep it minimal and quit when the losing is getting too much.

The feeling that comes with a losing streak can be very bad one whether you are gambling for fun or not, if winning can bring so much excitement then having the experience of a losing streak will starve us of the excitement that comes with winning, I have chase losses in the past I can deny it while I later realized is bad then I now prefer to stop then chasing because the more you chase the more beating you will receive, chasing don't usually ends well on a frequent occasions, let's call a break instead of to stop whenever there is a losing streaks.

Blackjack was my emotion. I used to play a lot of blackjack and enjoy the live games there and I could never accuse any casino side of cheating there. And I used to gamble regularly hoping to change my luck. And I lost a lot of money there. When you are losing a lot of money in gambling, it is very important to stop gambling and take a break. But at that time we are very emotional and it becomes very difficult for us to come back and stop gambling. It does not matter whether you win or lose, you must take a break in gambling, this is very important otherwise you cannot control yourself.

A losing streak for me is a sign that the game is no longer under control, so I definitely choose to pause and try to calm my mind. Usually, losing streaks are caused by us continuing to chase what we've lost, unwittingly repeating the same losses to the point of not having anything to bet. It's too risky and personally I don't like to be ambitious beyond my limits.

I stop only when I lose it all, so I just keep chasing until either I lose everything or win, kind of a do-or-die thing for me every day. The urge to gamble never really goes away as long as there’s still money in my wallet. But the good part is, it’s not always losses; I’ve had some nice wins too. So yeah, it’s a mix of emotions, but overall I’m still happy and see gambling as entertainment.

Some people keep chasing until they can get the profit back but this has a very high risk because we follow our ambitions too much and our minds are difficult to control, even though we will be given victory but it will be difficult to happen many people chase victory but in the end a big loss occurs, so my thoughts are the same as what you said stop first and later we will continue in another game that can give us victory.

I don't chase losses anymore, aside from doing so in gambling and having it backfired I also had experiences irl (not gambling related) where chasing losses backfired royally, so I am convinced completely it's futile to do so and worse this can put you in position like digging a hole for yourself further and further and possibly that hole becoming your own grave, so I just stop.

There has been and will be a lot of different answers/approaches to this.

Its really difficult to stay disciplined and stick to your chosen tactic. The rule of thumb is to
not chase losses and its really difficult to stop when a number of losses occur.

I know from experience that its very easy when we incur a number of losses to keep playing
with the thinking that our luck will change and our bet will change to Green! Its like the
"gamblers fallacy" thinking.

Personally I mostr often chase and find it really hard to stop, let the losses go and start fresh.

Do you chase or just stop is like the question "to be or not to be?". Before making a decision, you need to involve many other factors, and probably one of the most important factors is your emotional state & reasoning in the given moment.

So it's the decision you make in that moment... It's not only about do you chase or just stop, it's more about how you feel, do you have enough balance to chase a bit more? Are you ready to take additional risks in that moment? All gamblers were in that situation many times... and I guess many times we continued to chase, and sometimes we just stopped & quit playing for that day, or week.

Losing streaks are one of the hardest parts of gambling to handle because they mess with your head and make you think the next spin or next hand will finally change everything that’s when most players start jumping from one game to another trying to chase that feeling of a win but the truth is once you’re already frustrated your decisions stop being logical you’re just reacting.

When I hit a losing streak I stop completely because the more I chase it the worse it gets sometimes I’ll walk away for hours or even days and come back when my mind is clear forcing a win never works because the odds don’t change just because you switched games blackjack slots dice they all run on the same principle of randomness. The best approach is to treat gambling like any other activity that has ups and downs when you lose accept it and step away your luck doesn’t reset by changing games it resets when your mindset does patience and discipline are the only real comeback strategy.

During my younger years, I used to gamble notoriously and whenever I would encounter a loss, I would try my best to chase and recover it. I think 80% of the time, I lost more money in the process of chasing away my losses (I applied the Martingale system).

Now that I know better due to my experience, it's really recommended that if I exceeded my allocated budget for the day and I'm still on the red, I just stop and move on.


Like what I mentioned above, losses are part of the game of gambling. You can never prevent losing but you have something to at least learn from it. You stop and accept the fact that you lost this time. The more you chase your losses, the more money would be spent and lost in the process.

No body should make the mistake of wanting to continue Gambling when they are losing the best thing to do at such moments is to call it a day and leave. This will help and is in the best interest of the gambler because gambling is not something that should be done under force you can't force yourself into winning so even if you change the type of game you're gambling on the result will still be the same.Forcing yourself into gambling even when you are losing is the fastest way of becoming broke because one can end up losing everything that he has in his account.


Leaving Will give the individual the right mental state to analyze and come up with better ways and strategies to gamble next time because when one is on a losing streak it affects the mental stability of the person in such a way that it will make the decision making process of such a person.

Chasing Losses is trap that most Gamblers put themselves at a certain point.The game doesn't change all of a sudden because you've lost, it's a common struggle and fall back strategy that gambling designed to players.The longer you play under that mental backup and decision of "one more time" the more your losses and continuous regrets.

Do you know the most deceiving thing about chasing losses while gambling? Someone may try it the first time and it work, but the person can also be lucky the second time, but later the person will try it and lose and lose and the losses will continue just like that. At the end, the gambler will lose all his money. Chasing losses is very bad.

If I were into such games, I think I would most likely keep playing that game, because I would think that after a long losing streak I’m getting closer to winning. I probably wouldn’t start playing slots, meaning I wouldn’t change the game itself. But since I’m not into such games and instead make bets, I wouldn’t even think about changing the game, because I believe that in betting I can choose the teams myself, and that already changes the circumstances that affect the chance of winning.

Many like myself don't chase losses because I have a number of trials I make and once it exceeds that without my luck changing for good, I can decide to try out another game entirely and in this case I can go to a slots game after I have been unlucky with blackjack after a certain number of trials.

Every gambler has their own mentality and while time availability is a factor, funds, emotional stress are also factors any gambler who doesn't know they are chasing losses would fall into. It takes some experience and good sense to know this trap and avoid it by using a number limit or fund limit to maintain risk management discipline.

Before gambling, I must have made up my mind on how much to gamble with therefore, if I exhaust it, I will stop gambling and call it a day. I don't chase my loss with a different game because it will lead to more losses. However, you should do what works for you. Profit is not guaranteed even if you continue to chase your loss with a different game, you need luck to win your bet.

Always doing that, sometimes losing continuously is boring and it's better to explore other games, such as plinko or dice and others including slots, looking for fun with a little hope of lightening the mood after boring losses.

Sometimes I play until I run out of money because I'm curious about whether I'll get lucky in the same game or not. A few times I've won at the end of my bets, and sometimes I get nothing, and I can only smile and say it's a frustrating day. LOL

I change options a lot of times, like if I'm playing one particular game and all I experience is losing from one hand to the other. As long as I still have balance left with me, I will have to try my luck with another game, sometimes entirely with a different provider, to see if I will be lucky there, but if the loss still continues, I will burn my balance and exit the casino for the day. I don't try to make more deposits.

When a losing streak starts it really tests how much control a gambler has over their emotions because it’s very easy to slip into that mindset of believing that switching games or changing tables might somehow turn the luck around but that’s where the trap begins the casino is designed to keep players playing whether by making you feel like your luck is about to shift or convincing you that just one more round could recover the losses.

Personally after a certain number of attempts or when i feel my concentration and patience wearing off, I stop immediately moving to another game while in a frustrated state rarely ends well because the emotion of wanting to win back the money overshadows logic when people move from blackjack to slots or other quick games they usually do it out of impulse not strategy and that’s how they end up losing even more.

It’s important to have a strict number of rounds or a loss limit before even starting to play once that limit is reached it’s time to walk away because in gambling the mindset matters as much as the strategy discipline separates the players who play for fun from those who end up chasing losses without realizing it when you stop early you protect both your money and your peace of mind believing that the casino is watching or trying to prevent you from winning is also something that develops from frustration rather than reality it’s just the brain’s way of finding a reason for repeated losses the best thing to do is to accept the loss for the day reset and come back with a calm mind another time.

In the past, I stuck with one game. Let's say I am playing Plinko, I will only adjust the settings, like from 16 lines to 14 lines, and then the difficulty from high to medium.

But after I played one slot game, I realized there are so many games out there that are entertaining and so I played more slot games in different slot providers. I chase, that's a fact. It is still happening now although I am trying to resist it. There are times that it ain't easy to let go especially if you feel like the winning chance is almost near.

This is a good approach to gambling, as long as you rest you when the losing persist, it means you are very disciplined, gambling is mainly for those that have a good control technique, those that can keep to their decision and control their mind not to go further when that the might fall for something unimaginable, there is something I observe when a gambler is on losing streak, I don't know if you notice that too, it is very difficult for any gambler to win immediately when they are on losing streak and I think the best any gambler can do at that moment is to rest for the day and come back the next day because proceeding may amount to more loss.

I don't know, because sometimes I feel like I have to spend all my deposits even after a losing streak. I might continue playing, or I might switch to another game. But sometimes, if I already feel quite tired, I will stop and let the game end in a loss. I don't care about that result because there is still tomorrow to continue playing.

I believe every players who plays on different games does this navigation of trying other games when the one they are currently playing on is not interesting at the moment due to streak looses.

The ideal of gambling is to win and catch fun, so when a particular game is ruining the good times and you have not exhausted your budget or bankroll for the day, of course you can switch over to other games and try your luck.

Or probably when your emotions can not tolerate further looses, quiting should be the best option because switching to other games may still not guarantee you the wins or expectations you craves for .

Switching between two games won't necessarily change your luck. Luck is a symbolic concept, meaning your choices happen to coincide with the winning ones in the game. Therefore, switching games won't give you an advantage unless the game tends to be easier to win. However, a good idea would be to change your strategy instead of switching games, because there are games where you can change the odds in your favor or against you, in exchange for a higher or lower reward.

I think being in a losing streak is already a sign for us that we have to stop at that time. There are still other chances when we might win and recover some. But if that time comes that we're just losing everything then it's best to all of us to quit the game on that very moment. If you are the type of gambler that still seeks for another chance in other games, that's your choice. As for me, I'm not going to gamble at that time when I feel that there's no luck in me left and all I have to do is to simply quit, take a rest and wait until the day pass.

Suppose the excitement is building up, and I still have time and money. In that case, I make a shift, usually from my second-favorite game, to try my luck and keep the excitement going.
If you're playing with money that is allocated for gambling, you don't mind losing, but if it is pissing you off, then shifting to a new game is a good decision, it's like you are starting all over again..

Thinking that the outcome of losses might change when you start chasing losses is absolutely delusional, some people just hope that after losing multiple times they might end up winning in the next round, it's very risky to even consider such. Personally I don't like to take chances, even if there's a high chance that I might end up winning in the next round i prefer to stop at once. Those that chase losses will always end up losing more in the long term. Learn to accept the fact that whatever you have lost in gambling is gone and you must move on.

If I get busted in slot then I go to Plinko or Crash game jut for a one or two game before buying my bonus pack again, which is something I do just a little pause between the session not entirely to change the fate of my luck in winning and I never assume that it will change anything at all.

There is no reason to chase losses because it always end in more losses, the mistake we do as gamblers is risking more than we can chew, and in the end we have to chase losses to atleast recover some money back.

It is already too late by the time you increase your wager or you deposit money that's not mainly for gambling, how can someone send you on an errand to help them buy something and you are already thinking about how to double the amount by gambling.

---

Risk what you can and if luck isn't on your side you can try out other games, I have seen where by changing slot game to another gives me more luck than the other game, once your money runs out you have to quit.

This is dependent if you still have the allocated funds for the gambling session in the bankroll.  If you still have then there is no harm in trying other games just to shake out the unlucky vibes, but if you don't have the funds, then it is better to stop. It is not advisable to top up another fund just to try our luck at other games in a single gambling session.  When the allocated budget is already depleted, we should stop and not top up to chase losses in other games.

Better to practice responsible gambling than risk our money and end up with more losses that can possibly jeopardize our month's budget.

When I still wanted to continue gambling, I usually switched to games like slots. I would typically bet on sports and place a few wagers. Losing more bets could sometimes be really frustrating. So I would decide to move on to casino games. Besides trying to find another source of enjoyment, who knows, luck might be on casino games instead of sports betting. Of course, it could lead to losing even more. I guess that's part of the risk. But I don't spend too much time on casino games.

Some players pursue losses believing luck will turn, yet things unfortunately go worse. Going from gameto game after a losing streak is only a different form of pursuing. The best step is to pause, take a break and return later having clear mind. Luck is not due, an the casino is not targeting you–this is just how the odds are.

I'm trying to be more cautious now because I've been at a point where chasing losses and ignoring limits didn't always work, and instead, I always suffered significant losses. My current strategy is to split my sessions. Let's say my bankroll for casino games is $10. I usually don't deposit it all into the casino account. If I lose on my first deposit, I can try my luck on a second deposit on the same game or switch to another game. This way, I can try to recover my losses while still sticking to my limits. If it doesn't work, I'll just wait the next day/week.

What I did before was that once I didn't feel winning anymore on a certain slot game, I would change providers or a different title for it, but I would still stay in slots. Most of the time, I still get to win a few times, but overall, it's not that overwhelming unless I'm lucky that day.

What I learned is when I'm lucky already, DON'T PUSH IT. Like, don't play with it anymore —just stick with your gains.

Chasing losses doesn't do any good in the long run it only leads to losses. As a matter of fact the system is actually designed to take from gamblers that go down this path, aftwr losing they stake high to recover but this is just a psychological trap that you are falling for .The more you chase you loae the chances of minimising your losses. In gambling discipline is actually a very key thing to practice.

I think there’s nothing wrong with trying your luck in a different game, as long as the gambling budget you’ve set aside is still available. However, if switching games means you need to use additional funds beyond your set budget, I think it’s better to stop. Doing so would mean crossing the limits you’ve established for yourself, which may eventually lead to regret. There’s always another day to try your luck, just make sure you never break your personal boundaries.

If you keep following the urge to continue betting in hopes of winning, I think that’s a clear sign of addiction. That’s why I think it’s very important to learn how to control your emotions, so you don’t go beyond your limits when gambling. A responsible gambler is someone who knows when to start and when to stop.

If i found myself in this situation what I will do after been on a losing streak and I felt like my luck will come, I will play like 2 or 3 times and if it doesn't work for me I will stop and call it a day because if I should continue it is going to be worst than that but I have seen someone who played and was even owing a big amount of money and instead him to stop he continued and at some point I starting feeling pity for him but lo and behold this young man played untill luck comes and he paid off the debts and went home with a little change and at that moment he doesn't care anymore how much he lost rather he was happy he was able to cleared the debts but this may not happen all the time.

After having several experiences about this case of losing streak, I have actually learned my lessons to off my machines and leave, and never chase back loses, because there's always another day. Chasing of loses after a losing streak has never been the solution or the best way of approaching this situation, and I bet you that 99% of the times it will do you more harm than good.

When I start losing while playing slots, I usually switch to roulette or blackjack. I raise my balance there and then take a break.
Since the amounts I deposit into the casino aren’t very high, I don’t really mind it.
Back when I used to play the same game for hours, I always ended up losing now I try different games, and I’ve started winning.

I still don't want to switch to other games when I'm winning or even when I'm losing. Because I want to focus solely on my favorite betting games or poker, where I feel I understand many things. Sure, I could start playing different games for fun, but without an edge or a deep understanding, I'll simply have low odds of success, and I don't want that at all. Of course, every player makes their own decisions. Some may find this a way to reduce their pain after a series of losses, and that may even be more important to them than the money they've lost.

Sometimes when I'm on a losing streak I stop gambling on the same game and continue gambling in another, sometimes I win but don't recover my losses. It is better to stop instead of to continue in another game then lose more. You should be  able to know when you are in a losing streak and when you are on a winning streak so that you don't have to lose more money. Because raising back your money is not assured, it is good to stop at the main time.

The question of quitting gambling may arise after continuous losses in bets. When a gambler gets too bored, he quits gambling. It cannot be said that a gambler can do that forever. There are many gamblers who, after losing repeatedly, change their style of play or the game itself so that their luck returns to them. While some can benefit from this strategy, there are many who cannot change their losing streak. In my case, when I lose in a row, I try to change to sports betting to casino or casino to sports betting. Sometimes I even take a break.

And what’s the guarantee of actually raising your balance when you switch to those other games? What if that’s just another trap for you to completely sweep out your balance?
I think the most appropriate thing to do at this point would be to just take a walk the moment you discover you’re losing way too much, sometimes it’s best to accept it’s not your lucky day and just cut your losses. Maybe sometimes you actually manage to raise your balance by switching but the truth is that there’s no guarantee or assurance about this.

I think every gambler has chased losses at one point or another, if somebody tells you they haven't they're either new to it or just lying. People may not even realize they are doing it either, if somebody deposits $50 and only expects to spend $25 on that particular day but ends up burning through the lot, then they are often hoping to break even after not hitting anything in the first half. Personally I wouldn't care what people around me thought about my playing style, but lots of people do get self conscious in weird ways and might feel like peer pressure from observers has an impact so continue to play. You really need good self discipline in order to walk away and you can get that with a bit of practice.

Like from losing streak in sports betting to playing dice. Everyone seems to have the same strategy after all when we're having a bad day and we're not yet giving up.

So the usual actions that we do is not yet giving up and as long as we have money to gamble with, we'll continue.

That's the mindset of every gambler, if we're unlucky with the first game that we played, we should just move on to the next one and try to find our luck there.

Any gambler who chasing his loss is chasing doom because the more you chase the more you loss. So the best way is to let it go for the main time and probably come back later. As for me I don't like chasing gambling loss because it has not favoured me in any day. Like day, I lose $5 day in one of the casino here in the forum and I have to let it go. And before I will gamble in that casino again, it will be another week or month. But if I won the game, them it might be that, I could continue playing for sometimes since I have loss it. I will take a rest from it.

Difficult question. What is sure is that I hardly ever spend more that the budget I had stablished for that day, and that no matter how bad a losing streak is, I will usually continue playing until I spend that money. But if you ask me about the moment I decide to move to another game, I don't know, it depends on my mood, I guess.

Of course, only a few players will be able to quit, only those with fortitude and resilience. I think even players with a lot of experience won't always be able to quit easily after losses, because something inside them will always tell them to win back. I've learned to overcome this and understand that quick wins won't make me happier, because our gaming journey isn't defined by today, but by many years of play. I've simply stopped rushing the game. I understand that tomorrow will come, and it's better to try to win back later, without the pressure of emotions. I think this is what professionals do because they've long understood these subtleties.

I think it's wise to take your time in both losing and winning excessive money through gambling. If we have self-control over ourselves by gambling patiently and consistently, the risk of losing excessive money can be reduced many times. Continuing to gamble without stopping after losing repeatedly cannot be the right rule of gambling. It is very important to set a time and money limit for gambling correctly and to take time in case of repeated wins or losses, by doing so, we have self-control over ourselves and can protect ourselves from big losses.

If the losing streak were so long that I lost too much, I would just stop and even consider never returning to that game again, because if I lost that much there, it clearly means I don’t understand the game well enough. But if I faced a losing streak in betting, I think I would start increasing my bet, because I know my own statistics, and I’ve never had long losing streaks in betting.

I don't quit or continue gambling because of long losing streaks.  I end my gambling activity for the day or week immediately my financial allocation is exhausted. I know sometimes, you might be tempted to fund your account and chase losses, but this might lead to more losses. No matter the urge to keep gambling, my best option will be to walk away.

I always stop immediately after losing because I know that if I continue i might get trapped in that loop of  chasing losses constantly till I end up losing everything. The chances of recovering at that moment of desperation is always very low, gambling in that unbalanced state of mind only leads to losses. Stopping shows you are giving yourself a limit and if you want to control losses this is something you must do.

That's right and like you, I only limit my gambling allocation every week so when the funds run out, I can't gamble anymore even if I want to. No matter how much I want to play, I still have to be able to strengthen myself not to start with new funds for 1 full week no more than $15.

Just like Oshosondy said, there are two topics that are similar, and I already gave my response over there.
I summary, losses shouldn't be chased; if you do, you end up losing even more. Every gambler should know that by now, unless they are beginners.

I don't know why some gamblers will choose to quit after losing a few hands, losing is part of gambling and it must be accepted in the process. I accept losses and don't think about quitting until i exhaust my budget for the day, it's okay to change games and a little pause, moreover you gamble when everything feels okay about what you are doing. It takes many unlucky attempts for a gambler to make profits, why give up after few losses.

Thinking that the casino does not want you to win is a losers mentality though, but it does helps in making one to stay away from gambling at that time. When you’re on a losing streak, it is better you calm down and allow the game to be for that time. It’s natural to win but it’s important that you also limit your losses so that you’ll get to bet another day when the atmosphere for it changes for you.

Chasing after your loss is a poor mentality that will incur you more loss, so it’s better to stay focused and not chase after it. If you as a gambler has a risk management skill you’re applying to your games, even when you’re on a losing streak, you’ll know when to stop when your limit set is reached, you’ll won’t be betting blindly because you want to recover the already loss asset.

Emotional intelligence entails once you're not having the best of days that you call it a stop and stop stretching too much so you don't continue losing too much all in the name of trying to either recover your losses.

If you're trying to chase your loss, at least 70% of the times, you're going to lose even more and that's a reality that both those that have tried it in times past and those currently doing it now can all attest to the fact that it always ends in utter ruin.

Perhaps a losing streak really is a sign that we should stop and think rather than continue our pursuit of something that may not be in the cards. Too many players are going to think ‘one more time,’ or ‘my turn to win is just around the corner’ drawn by feelings and emotion and anger and these illusions prevail over rational thinking. The design of the casino is to give us a feeling that we are just about to win at any moment, just around the corner, while the odds are consistently low and in their favor.
Letting losses ride in the illusion that somehow, we are going to get even is like digging a deeper hole. Every time we think that a huge score will cover our losses, that is exactly the moment we are most likely to lose control since at that time logic has given way to empty hopes.
This is a very important lesson to learn from losses that playing in a casino is not a profession but a risky affair and can’t even earn bread for the family.

That marathon is never ending to start with. Don't know how it may seem if I say that chasing is chasing whether switching to another game or on the same game. The marathon of chasing only end when the balance ends and that is for a moment because you can still decide to reload your account and continue the never ending marathon. Chasing has dealt with a lot of people. Chasing is usually one of the attitudes of an irresponsible gamblers. I guess to be on the safer side is to control chasing.

It depends on my bankroll, if I’m still high on money there’s a very high chance that I’ll switch to a different game and continue gambling but if I’m not high on money I might use that as an excuse to call it a quit and come back another time.

I have done it before and in this instance I don’t consider myself chasing after loses since I am still just doing my normal gambling and the first one is getting boring since all I’ve gotten from it were loses and not a single win.

If those loses starts affecting me emotionally, which rarely happens to me. I don’t think I’ll switch to a different game - I’ll just quit and wait till I’m calm and can focus and think properly before going back to gamble again. The moment you become emotionally disturbed you’ll incur more losses than you already did.

Making the mature step of halting your play when you notice that the emotions start playing a role in your play shows mature self awareness. Emotions are unstable and will create a cloud over the reasoning ability of such a person leading to loss of control over playing strategy. They will be in a position to make wise decisions, as they will wait until their mind calms down. This is also good in order to keep boundaries clear such that gambling does not turn out to be an escape of stress. A balance between desire to have a gamble and control is the most appropriate method of avoiding gambling as the basis of emerging troubles.

Just as we have always being saying, chasing whatever direction is never a good option for a gambler, since inconsistent results will always end you in an unfavorable direction, is best that we allow ourselves the time to heal from whatever multiple stride that we may have had in the time.

Whoever that chose to Chase whatever direction for whichever reason is doing so based on the level of greed that is available in them as gambler's, and at such it won't end well with you unless in rear situations that the gambler hit a jackpot along the line.

I have done that before that was in slot game, after making several attempt and luck just take off then I decided to try a different game since the regular game turns out not to work unlike before so I felt going for a different one can actually get me favoured. I would say that this idea works for me and It was actually the first time I decided to try something like that but when next I tried this with the hope of wining just like the other time funny enough that the second attempt went badly so after this experience I don't think of switching to other slot games if my regular game isn't going well rather I would just quit for the main time maybe to continue the next day.

I do play different games to still try my luck before I stop. I always split my bankroll usage dedicated to different games instead of focusing on one game until I get the game that gives me a good experience.

Sometimes, it’s always a bad luck but most of the time I do experience a winning streak on some games that’s why it’s important to change game if you think that you are not getting any win on the game you are playing.

I only focus on 1 game if I immediately experience a good run on that particular game and already have enough of entertainment.

Doing so it means one is desperate of winning in gambling and we know whay desperation can cause in gambling. Changing from one game to another doesn't mean you will win, you can lose in a game and change to another game and still lose again. Well,  it is not so wrong to gamble this way if you haven't exceed your limits in gambling,  I mean if you still have some money with you for gambling bit if the reason for changing to another game is to recover money that was lose in previous game, then it is not the right way to go about gambling. If you are doing this with the money that you can afford to lose and gambling for fun, then their is nothing bad about this gambling style.

Every gamblers must have chased his or her losses one day or the other. Even if occasionally, having a total avoidance is best to avoid making it a habit and one day of great doom. In my case I did a check on all the chases I ever made and realized that my percentage win from chases is not reasonable to the loses, that made me think twice any time the urge to chase wants to set into my mind.

I don't call it quit instead taking a break, if things are not working or you're lossing so much it's about time to take a break and rest before you can heard back to it or recalculate your moves it's not longer on the lane you think of it so you would have to play only when you're elevated back, some may want to keep going but I don't try to kill myself in gambling I just do it for fun and the profit knowing fully that I can't always when I take a break.

It is also a sign of maturity in self management since you are taking a break when things are not working in your favour. The likelihood of making poor judgments is high when one coerces oneself to keep on playing when feeling exhausted or annoyed. The mind is refreshed by a break, stress is diminished and a review of the strategy is carried out. This is not an indicator of a weak person, but an act of looking upon himself. Gamble must be a good healthy form of entertainment, and not a stressful experience which may result in loss of money or emotional control.

That you have experienced a long streaks of losses while on a particular game doesn't mean you could be closer to earning a win as you continue in the game ignoring you are losing and that the chances of you to continue losing as long as you continue is outweighs any chance of bringing you across a single. Another you shouldn't forget is this, even though you get a win in the middle as you continue it might not be in streaks as your losses. Which still puts you in loss compared to what you won.

People who does not understand gambling do chase after their losses, and the I believe that it is the irresponsible gamblers that will chase their losses, someone who knows that gambling is all about risk cannot be after his losses after it has experienced a lot of losses the same day

Myself when I lose I don't think about recovering what I have lost in the gambling, I only go home and have some rest, and if I continue next day, I will not chase the loses of yesterday's.

Taking a break to reflect with how you deal with your gambling sometimes it works when you take some break and reasses your strategy, those who push forward without thinking, they'll mostly end up losing more instead or calling for the day aggression out them in a tough situation, it's human behavior thinking that you can recover as long as you have available balance it can convert and maybe give opportunity to win back and collect some profits.

If I have not exhausted my limit for the day, I will continue to see if there is a chance of winning, but if I have exhausted it, I will stop and call it a day because wins can't be forced, it comes with luck, for those that do not have a limit, it is better for them to stop than chasing their losses till they have nothing to fall back on, avoid gambling excessively, in other to be able to gamble the next time or fall into addiction that will cause you a very big problem, gamble wisely.

Which means you also mean to say if you are in profit on that day, and you have been winning a game which rewards your balance to keep on increasing, if you don't start losing you will never leave the casino? If that's the case, then you will need to do better to have money to withdraw from the casino. You can't always use an empty balance as an excuse to leave when you can always decide on another perfect time that you can leave.

Chasing losses profits nothing in the long run, whenever I lose my bets I always get the urge to play casino games to recover..considering that it's something that I've done in the past and it has not yielded any positive results I just forget about it and take.a break for sometime..its important to learn discipline and self control as a gambler otherwise you'll keep on making the same mistakes.

You can allow the chasing to continue without doubting the process. If this is the way people that are hitting jackpots are making it through gambling, we should not stop and focus on doing what will bring result not stoping at a junction and continuing later. Aggressive traders should never be bothered about other people's results, focus on the bag and play games that will yield a good result.

These are cases of people who don't plan before they start gambling. For example, they don't define the maximum amount of money they can lose and that they will stop gambling when they lose it all, and they don't define the maximum time they should gamble and that they will stop gambling when they reach that time. When time and maximum amount are not defined, people gamble without restraint, so when they lose, many continue gambling until they lose everything and then complain that they were very unlucky.

The best thing to do is not worry about recovering what you've lost or trying to get several wins in a row. Play lightly, thinking only about having fun, and the money will come as a consequence. I think that's the healthiest way to continue betting and, who knows, maybe even come out winning.

The most common outcome of not planning before gamblers end up spending their money and time recklessly. Lack of boundaries makes gambling an addictive behaviour. It is best to give yourself a limit in terms of the amount of money you will enjoy losing, as well as at what time to put an end, so that there is a balance between having fun and responsibility. It is a trap that can easily get a number of person to disregard this simple principle and attribute luck upon suffering significant losses. However, control has nothing to be specified by the result, rather a willingness of a person to work out the actions before beginning to play.

Actually, it is our discretion if we continue or not. However, we should think that chasing is a wrong idea in gambling. The more we chase our losses, the more we lose money.

Our experience could help in making our future decisions. In the event we're too unlucky, the best thing is to take some breaks. It is simple; experiencing a losing streak is an indication that we should stop. Perhaps a responsible gambler doesn't pursue winning and chase losses but rather analyzes the situation carefully to determine whether they will continue gambling or not. 

Everyone is saying that they're just simply stopping if things go against your plan on that day.
Well, what if for the sake of argument we are saying that we're all chasing the losses until we recover everything?
It's impossible and unbelievable right? that's the same if we're saying that we are stopping when we're already in a streak and yet we want to continue.
I guess everyone's reaction is to stop and take that day as a rest and protect our peace with it.

I don't see any reason to continue playing if you are consistently losing at the moment, this is why people lose their money and everything because they are being delusional thinking if they lose and continue, they will eventually win, because there is a point where losing will stop, but they don't know this is what exactly the casino want them to think, that its just being unlucky, remember if things are nothing going your way, stop and call it a day, there is no point on pushing your luck, which is not coming, same in winning, you can't win it all, keep the winnings and go home.

When you lose too much money while gambling, you should take a break from gambling for some time. Because losing too much will make you lose your head, which can lead to you making wrong decisions and incurring even bigger losses. So I think it would be wise to gamble cautiously.

During my time gambling, I've experienced a similar phase. I've experienced consecutive losses, and all I did was continue gambling. Whether I stayed with the same game or a different one, the thought always stuck in my mind that I needed luck to win. Stupidly, I thought I'd win the next bet, which drove me to continue gambling even though I'd lost.
From these behaviors and experiences, the result was often defeat. Occasionally, I'd win and then immediately quit by withdrawing all my winnings. I learned a lesson from this incident, and now I'm trying to avoid it again, and I hope it never happens again.

Sometimes I think like that and will play for some rounds to see the result. If I still lose as before, I will not continue but stop gambling because that can make my losses bigger. It is enough to spend the money but lose much so stopping gambling will be good. I am not lucky enough to win some and there is no point for me to chase the win or recover the loss. That can just make me lose more than I can expect. I realize that winning in gambling is difficult so I don't have to push to keep playing. There is another time to play and have fun so I don't have to stay longer in casinos.

In the past, I played games in several places simultaneously because I thought that if I played in several places, I would definitely be able to win in one of the games, but in fact, that didn't happen, so it made me realize that as long as luck is not on our side, we will still lose even though we have tried various ways to win the game. After experiencing this condition until now, I no longer chase luck and if I lose while playing, I will immediately decide to stop betting and exit the game.

Chasing after losses in gambling could just be an interpretation of chasing after the air as well, we should not take it as a thing of concern to ensure that we make winning always a thing of priority not must-achieve, applying the right moves is necessary, which can help to know when the pause or continue with gambling, because if the fun is no longer involved, there's no need to keep on playing in frustration as we remained being in desperation to win.

We gamble in different ways in the gambling, the amount you are using to gamble you think is a small fund maybe is a huge fund for someone in the gambling , but any amount of funds you are using to gamble daily , weekly or monthly to try your luck in gambling never let it make you to chase your losses in gambling because it has make some gamblers to lose everything they have achieved from gambling, I don't chase losses and i will never chase my losses, which is the reason i set up a daily budget $10 and i don't gamble above my budget winning or losing I stand not to Cross to gamble further.

Actually most of the people tend to make wrong decisions because of the fear of losing, so if you keep losing continuously, then you will basically lose the ability to understand reality, you will keep making emotional decisions, as a result you will face a lot of losses which will create many big problems later, so you should understand that you will never be able to take revenge from the casino, even the possibility will not be in your favor, so it is better to accept defeat here and stop.

There will be no change of odds by changing a game.

Hence stopping is a better option than changing to a different game. Chasing a loss shows that the guilt is taking over and hence you will make emotional decisions leading to more losses.

The fear of loss and guilt of losing are good stimulus for chasing losses. Try to prevent that from happening.

I don't think so, because I always gamble for fun. I never gamble for money. Every person should gamble for fun. If a person does not take gambling as fun or considers gambling as a source of income or becomes addicted to gambling then it will never be good for him. This decision of his will only bring bad times for him. So a person should gamble depending on his financial situation.

When a person gambles for money, then when he loses, he will say all these things. If a person gambles depending on his financial situation and if he takes gambling as fun then it will be good for him and then he will not think about all these things

To be honest we have all experienced the frustration and disappointment that comes with losing all the time. At that time it feels like I'm not going to win anything today. Many people then jump from blackjack to slots, thinking that maybe changing games will make their luck a little softer. Sometimes it makes them feel better mentally but to be honest even if they change games, the shadow of that loss remains in their minds. So in the end it's not luck, it depends more on your mental state. Sometimes changing games feels good and sometimes taking a break is the best decision.

You have described it best, sometimes gambling without a strategy can be frustrating and regretful and can cost one money. Most individuals join games with the belief that they can go through the game by chance and that it is discipline and setting boundaries that indeed save players. Limiting money and time both would make sure that gambling is fun and not an obligation. The fact that you specially mentioned that control was not defined by results, but rather by the attitude prior to playing I particularly enjoyed. Even before the first bet is made, responsible gambling will begin - by determining how much you can afford to lose and when to quit. It is a pity that many players do not keep this in mind and only find out how important it is when they make a huge loss. It is continuity of self-control and the sense of what constitute the difference between responsible players and individuals who end up being addicted. Few things can help gambling remain fun and sustainable.

Your idea is very good. but when i gamble  cannot bet small amounts. I try a lot, but i still can’t do it. Many times i have taken big losses and then  i tell myself that i will never gamble with a big amount again. But i can not move from it. Can you give me some suggestions on how i can reduce this habit? What is the next step for me?

There are some type of losing streak where switching over to another game actually does the magic, you end up having a win that covers the entire amount of money you've lost before, and even end up with good profit as well.
But there are certainly other type of losing streak where changing the game doesn't change anything, you still will continue to lose money until you decide to stop playing and take a break for that day..
The problem now becomes knowing which type of losing streak you are in at a point in time..

For me, when I am playing a game like blackjack and not winning, I will just do whatever my instincts tells me to do, either switch to another game like slot or casino game, or stop playing totally at that moment and come back again the next day.

That is a very sound and logical strategy, because learning to quit is usually a very difficult thing to learn by many gamblers. When you realize that you can continue playing and only incurring losses, then you are already practicing good discipline. The common traps of chasing losses, that another round will result in a turn of luck are usually the reason that people regret it even more. Realizing that gambling is a form of entertainment and is not a way of getting money back will bring about a healthy balance. After losing several battles one after another, it is better to take some breaks and get away to preserve your bankroll, but also to maintain your mood. One will have another chance to play but it is much tougher to get back on track financially and control after addiction. You are aware of how to mature, that is the type of attitude that makes gambling an enjoyable and safe game.

I have tried to do so when I was playing slot machines and after a heavy extensive losing session I thought to myself that playing poker after this I would recover my money. I am relatively good at poker and often play in the site in my signature yet when I have gone directly after a big losing session I found out that I was not patient enough and my decisions were really bad that ultimately led to me losing even more money. For me it would be best to call it a day and calm yourself after heavy losing rather than changing game as it won't benefit you most of the times because you are coming from some level of rage which clouds your judgment.

Normally gambling success is something that is completely out of our power, it some kind of stuff that depends on luck so when having a significant lost at any point in time it not proper persisting further, because when you keep striving regardless your persistence lost it only shows that emotions has taking over and that can lead to more lost, however  chasing of lost in gambling is very dangerous and can instigate differs negative side of gamble, so the best any person should do in such situations is to take a pause or call it a day because that seems to be the only way out at that point.

The funny thing is most of us have all been in that same kind of situation before..  for real, chasing losses never really ends well,  it is one of those traps that feels right in the moment but make us regret later..
You start thinking let me just win this back real quick, but before you know it, you have doubled your loss and your mood completely off haha..
Honestly, I have learned that stopping for the day is not weakness, it is discipline…

Gambling is a dangerous addiction .
Gambling is already finish me. the thing is when you win it feels great and when you lose it feels incredbly painful. When i did not really understand gambling. i thought i could quit anytime i wanted. But that never happned. I lost many valuable things in my life becaus of gambling. I try to many time to get out of it. Back then i had only one thought in my mind. maybe if i play one more match i will win it back. But when luck is not on your side there is nothing to do. I have try to really hard to get out of this addiction but  still can not. If you could give me some advice on how to stop it would really help for me.

Chasing losses always feels logical in the moment because the mind convinces you that one more round will fix everything it becomes a cycle of emotion where logic fades and desperation takes over most gamblers who chase losses don’t realize they’re no longer playing to win they’re playing to erase pain and that never ends well.

The discipline to stop after a losing streak isn’t weakness it’s actually strength it’s the moment you take control back from emotion and protect both your wallet and your peace walking away resets your mind and helps you see clearly again because when frustration mixes with gambling decisions you stop calculating odds and start gambling against yourself. Everyone who’s gambled long enough has fallen into that trap at least once it’s part of learning self control but the key difference between those who stay stuck and those who grow is knowing when to close the app breathe and try again another day the market or the casino will always be there but your stability won’t be if you keep fighting emotion with emotion.

In principle, I wouldn't continue or take a break from the game and would resume it another time. I forced myself to continue playing by making another deposit because I felt like I would win if I did, and I was violating my own gambling rules.

There's no such thing as winning all the time in games like slots and other games, unless I chase the ambition of losing.
I knew I wouldn't win, so why did I keep forcing myself?

You are very correct and your points are true, if you are already on a loosing streak, do not think you can be any smarter or trying so hard to recover your funds because in the end you will loose even more than you had lost much earlier that has caused you to continue but its sad that most gamblers don't find it easy to call it a day at once until they have probably exhausted all that they have got on their wallet. whenever you are gambling and at any point the condition begins to feel very much unfavorable, it is best you just quit for the day because not only will you loose more, you may as well suffer some emotional and psychological problems resulting form the loses you will suffer for the day.

Chasing losses only ends up in more losses in the long run, always be quick to stopping on time whenever you are losing because it might just be a start of incurring more losses. You can’t correct a mistake by doing the same thing that got you in that mess in the first place, it's insanity to keep on doing the same things and expecting different results, always be smart enough to know when to stop gambling

It's very simple, if I loss and loss and loss, I simply quit for that day,, maybe for the whole week self. The thing is, I have a specified amount I want to play with before going to the casino. So If I loos all that budgeted money, I simply go home and cakliya loosing day. Because the more you try to continue, maybe the more you keep losing, yea!

And secondly, as you plan to try another betting experience since maybe the initial is giving you a had time or let's say bad luck of winning, the question is, with which money? You have planned of using that particular money for gamble? Is it part of the money your have planned to use for the gambling or you are just trying luck so that when you win, then you can replace? If so, to replace, then it's totally wrong because nothing is assured. It is gambling remember

I've done this before in gambling, and when I lost a bet like blackjack, I'd switch to another game like slots, but I still ended up losing. My experience with gambling is that switching bets doesn't determine your chances of winning; usually, when you're lucky, the bets we make can be more likely to win. Breaking a curse in a game might sound strange, because the odds aren't that different; if you're lucky, you'll still win regardless of where you play.

For now, I only bet on football more often, and when my bet ends in a loss, I will stop and never try to break my luck in other games because I believe that you can't always be lucky in games or bets, and that's actually how we can be more responsible in spending money on gambling.

I never like to gamble early, I know that if I have good luck, then I will definitely win. But when I lose and all my money is gone, I stop gambling, because I know that if I try to recover the lost money, I will face more losses. So I do not do anything that will show signs of addiction in gambling, because I gamble half the time of the week and the rest of the time I rest, that is why after losing money or winning a lot of money, I definitely stop playing. Because it is very easy for me to stop playing, that is why I rest and save money to enter gambling again later.

You have recommended not to chase losses and we do the same most of the time but sometimes we break our promise. We always want to win in gambling and cannot accept the loss and fail to stop gambling in time. You will not be able to stop gambling in time unless you have patience and set a boundary in the allocation of money. This is a way for gamblers to be smart. You will be aware of when to stop gambling at a time when you can control yourself. By controlling your emotions you can keep yourself in control of gambling.

Honestly we don't really keep to our words especially when we are making loses while gambling, we would always want to chase over our loses and this happens when one has been placing huge bets and at that point stopping seems like you're giving it all and giving up so hence the need most of us chase loses. But not me though cause I'm definitely active in making sure I gamble responsibly.

not betting with what we can afford to lose is the main reason why we chase after losses. We should always try to gamble with an amount that even if  we lose it , it will never affect us. It will be good to always keep in mind that no matter how times we try to chase after losses if luck isn't on our side it won't be possible to recover the money we have lost.

Omoh if you continue moving from one gamble to the other you might still continue loosing, it's better u stick to your stake and continue playing as the chance it might turn good isla but bear in mind that you should always place what you can afford to lose, always try to have control over your gambling habits don't let it control you, don't be too desperate to win, just play for the fun of it with that kind of ideology you might get far and earn more on you gambling spree as ur mind is not too drained about your gamble you just play without thinking too much...

That's good 👍, setting budget and working towards is very helpful, as it will save you not to wasted money, because since gambling is based on luck and chance, there are days that you will win and there are days that you will lose but whatever state you find yourself, it's important you shouldn't misuse it but learn to do things moderately because it will really help you and helps you stay in track.

Almost everyone has felt the same way, so it's best to forget about quitting gambling, We'll never succeed because saying so when we're losing is just anger.
It's better to focus on doing our best in gambling, such as controlling our emotions and viewing gambling as just entertainment with nothing to pursue except pleasure.
I've gambled with that mindset and so far I've enjoyed it, I've never experienced a loss although I have but the feeling I experience is different because I view gambling as just entertainment.

Not gambling early or only playing when you feel lucky is a good way to stay in control of your gambles. I also like how you know when to stop particularly even when you are winning big or in a worse condition when you are losing everything, you also know when to give it a pause. What I'm always scared for people is when they try to chase losses and they end in bigger problems. But for you to be gambling half of the week then stop of the rest of the week shows you are not allowing gambling to rule over you in as much as you are consistent with such pattern you have adopted whether you are losing or winning, that is not a bad idea.


I respect how you always try to keep gambling in a responsible manner. That is not something everyone can stick to for a short time talk more of a long time but with the way you're saying, it looks like you can gamble responsibly for a long time and to be able to do that do takes discipline and I'm thinking maybe what helped you was that you set a clear limit in terms of the budget first before you even start the gamble game.

I simply stop and try to do something else. Most of the time it's not worth the stress; it's better to calm down, take a walk around the neighborhood, and think about other things. By doing this, I make better decisions and avoid the mistake of losing more by trying to recover what I've already lost.

Is there a guarantee of winning when I continue playing, regardless of the type of game I'm playing? Everyone will answer "NO," meaning continuing to play isn't a solution to winning or recovering previous losses.

Therefore, personally, I prefer to stop, but it also depends on my bankroll. If, for example, the number of losses reaches an amount I can afford to lose, I will stop immediately and continue at another time.

Most of the times I chase once and then simply give up because chasing loses is like chasing ghosts...and you just have to accept that certain day wasn't yours no matter how hard you tried to gamble&win and that's why stopping and letting it go it's the best option.

However , not all of us have a responsible way to gamble and in most of cases , the person chasing up loses will end up losing everything in that day with small cases when they actually recover what they lost until then. ( this depends on what games , slots or sports they are gamble on ).

This is the kind of trap that everyone loves and keeps on doing it despite that we know the negative impact that it can give to us.
And it's true, when we stop, it's not called weakness or being a coward but it's all about being disciplined and we have to do that for our sake.
If we can't stop on specific time when we're gambling and we're losing more, that's on us and we're all warned not just by other people but also by our own awareness.

i agree with you completely that switching games is just chasing losses with extra steps

its a total mind game we play on ourselves to avoid admitting the budget is gone and the day is over

ive done the same thing jumping from poker to roulette thinking the random number generator will be kinder but you just burn through the remaining bankroll so fast

if the original limit is gone you have to walk away thats the only way to beat the tilt the house edge is everywhere anyway lol

I have that mood that even if I have badly lost a lot in a day, I'll continue just to take one win so that it will make me peaceful that day. And so, until I get that 1 win that I need, that's the time I'll stop. But when there are days that I am totally bad and in losses, I'll also stop when I know that there is no sense for me anymore to keep on going. That's why chasing sometimes is what I do but doing that, I know the consequences that I will receive if ever the results are not positive to what I am expecting to show. I would encourage people to stop when they can.

Anyone who uses a set aside budget for gambling will not chase after winning when there is a continuous streak of losses. The part where it is said gamble responsibly is what comes into play here. Knowing what works for you when gambling can help save one from excessive losses. Switching games because of continuous losses will can lead to more losses, so, it will be better to take a break at the moment and clear one's head. When there is continuous losses when gambling, thinking clearly becomes difficult and that's what makes the losses keeps increasing.

chasing after losses emanate from the idea of using more than what we can afford to lose.The best way to avoid this issue of chasing after losses is to kill the idea of making huge amount of money from gambling. Sometimes the best thing to do is , to set a gambling limit for this will really help ,one to become a successful gambler an investor needs to be sure of any information before they can be able to understand what am actually saying.

I only gamble on football, so whenever am losing in football, I have no other sport to gamble on, so whenever am losing and I notice that it’s getting too much, I just take a break, because I know if I keep on gambling, then I will be losing more than I expected.

I don’t know how other people do there own, maybe when they are not lucky in a particular game, and they switch to another one maybe they going to be lucky in that one but what I do tell people is that whenever you are experiencing frequent loss, just take a break and come back another time, you don’t have to keep on gambling, at least take a rest, instead of gambling get something else doing.

Yes mood is what control how we bet or gamble even whennwe are at a losing stride,  we have to build ourselves to that level that any direction doesn't just take us off the market just like that and we should be able to continue gambling even if we habe lose many times as long as we still habe the motivation or in the mood to keep playing.

If someone becomes motivated when they gamble, I think that they're not going to stop for as long as they have money left in their balance, they'll continue. And that's why I don't want to advice people to have that motivation to keep going when they gamble, so rather have that mood or reason to stop or continue because it seems different when we have that changing moods from time to time and it's clearly a different thing when we do it. So, if we start to chase we know that we'll end up very badly because it didn't just happened once to each of us but for so many times.

Basically, we never know what will happen in the future. This means continuing to play can result in a 50-50 outcome, meaning you could win or lose.

This also means that if you're currently experiencing a losing streak, continuing to play isn't necessarily a solution to turn things around.

Therefore, to be honest, I often quit in such situations rather than continue. I know I could win and recoup all my losses, but I focus on the consequences. I prefer prevention over cure.

I believe that gambling is primarily for entertainment, not as an easy way to make money or get rich quick. Expecting more from gambling can increase the risk of losing money. I manage my gambling for entertainment purposes in a disciplined manner so that I have control over myself so that I am not disappointed by losing and can protect myself from the risk of losing too much money.

This pattern of gambling is cool and preferable and it can make you avoid loses since you can trace your bets and know what could be wrong when you starts losing bets on your sportbook. Monitoring bets has been a challenge for all of us that gamble even though it's not too frequently. You can bet and lose money but accounting for some of your bets which you have lost might be very hard if you gamble on many games all together making the accountability of your bets difficult for you.

It depends on your mood and the remaining funds in your account. If you're still enthusiastic, you'll usually move on to another game and see what funds you have left. However, if you're low on funds, you'll prefer to place them on sports betting and stop.
However, if there is no more enthusiasm even though there are still funds, then it will stop because the results will not provide any pleasure.

Many gamblers tend to react differently when faced with a losing streak some believe switching games could change their luck while others simply quit for the day to protect their remaining balance personally i think the best thing to do depends on your state of mind and self control if you still have the right mindset and aren’t emotionally affected it’s fine to try another game but only with a small portion of what’s left once frustration starts creeping in it’s smarter to step away completely.

Losing streaks can mess with your logic they make you believe you can win it all back if you just try one more game but most times that only leads to losing even more because emotions begin to dictate your moves that’s why setting strict limits before starting is important both for money and time when those limits are reached you stop no matter what. For some gamblers sports betting becomes a calmer option after a rough streak in casino games because it allows more time to think and analyze instead of relying on instant luck but even then the principle remains the same don’t chase losses and don’t play when your mood isn’t right a calm mind always has a better chance at making reasonable choices than one clouded by emotions.

Sometimes one do face loosing steak in gambling because you are out of luck at that moment, and at that point you will become emotional to an extent, and this will leave you with these options you just mentioned.
But onec you have lost money what gives you the fealing that if you go to another game you wouldn't loose money? It's not about the games you play, it's about how much you are risking, there is no assurance that if you go to play another game you will win. So the best option you will pick out of the 2 you mentioned is to stop and go home, take a rest.
There is always another day to play again, you don't have to play all day long.

Gambling and winning everytime is never possible, so it is wise to stop gambling when winning is not favourable to you. It is good to gamble to gamble responsibly. Continuing gambling even when you are loosing is like chasing losses and a sign of irresponsibility in gambling.

As a responsible gambler, you are required to set a budget for your daily gambling and when ever you exceed your daily gambling you have to take a break.

I will not rush into making a decision, before continuing to play the same game or moving on to another game, I will consider the causes and consequences of the loss. If luck is not on my side in that game, I will try playing another game to see if my luck will change or stay the same as before.
If I still have enough money to continue playing, I will try playing other games like slots, but I will try to bet small amounts on several spins without hoping to "break the curse" or rely solely on luck. If the results are still the same, still losing in a row for several rounds, I will take a break and come back when I feel more ready to play again.

Gambling is fun and I have seen my friends make a lot of money from it. It depends a lot on luck, no matter what you think. My friend rarely loses in gambling and wins 80% of the time. You can't say that you only lose money in gambling. However, those of us who are new to the gambling line should invest very little money and take risks, not understanding that we cannot invest so much that we have to lose everything.

Most people who try to change their luck at gambling fail. You can be an expert at any gambling game but the developer of that gambling game won't let you win or you haven't developed the skill to win yet. You can win temporarily at some games and casinos do this intentionally to make you more tempted and to make the game seem more interesting and possible to win.

In my opinion it would be a foolish decision for a gambler to abandon the game he is good at and try his luck at another game. You can do this but in most cases your strategy will be defeated because you will have to spend more time gaining experience in a new gambling game and will lose more money than in the previous gambling games during the period of gaining skill.

I keep playing till i loose my limit. After that i just stop. The important thing is to set aside a fixed amount of money... For example when I go to a casino I only take 100 dollars with me, and I don’t even take my credit card. That way, I can’t continue even if I wanted to.

Gambling is good to those who has a good sense of reasoning and understanding not to fools on the street to anyone who want to be a fool should always continue to gamble when the time you are supposed to go home comes continue gambling what you are looking for you will see it.

Gambling is not for the wick but to those who are wide in the upstairs,not everyone that are supposed to gamble but due to the situation of the country their is no licence at all if not those who has certified and has certification on special schools are supposed to be the once to gamble but Nigeria is not such country.
So to everyone who is responsible when you are down as in when you are excited with your funs go home if not you will get your self to blame

It is not recommended to add to your budget when you are unlucky in gambling that day. Of course, there are emotional and frustrating factors in wanting to play again in conditions that are not good or conducive. This will result in losses that are much greater than before. It would be good if we stopped for a moment and continued the next day, so that our minds would be much clearer than before. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with changing games if you're on a losing streak. We shouldn't just stick to one game we should look for good opportunities to win, such as games of skill, like poker or blackjack.

This is the best way to gamble. Stop gambling after you have reached daily limit. It's only those that are gambling for profit that get carried with chasing their losses because they don't care about their losses. I have a gambling budget which I set aside every week to gamble with. I stop gambling when I have exhausted the money budgeted for that day.
