Did gambling losses are traps to new game

[Dewi Aries]

Another thing is that I also believe that someone who always tries to chase losses in gambling will eventually suffer a lot of problems like what you said and it's true because I think it's a common thing that many gamblers have experienced many downturns when trying to carry out the idea to achieve recovery

The most results that gamblers will get upon chasing losses won't be good, we can be the living proof of it because whenever we chase our losses, nothing comes good out of it.

On the other hand I will not conclude that chasing losses in gambling will never work, because everyone will always have a situation where they are faced with luck in themselves, in the sense that there is a possibility that when in the stage of chasing losses their luck comes at the right time which could be that they get a very large win that makes them succeed in achieving recovery, although it rarely happens but the possibility will still remain, but the problem is that most of the gamblers who managed to reach the situation wasted the situation instead, or in the sense that instead of securing the amount of winnings that managed to make them recover but most of them continue the game which means they cannot ignore the greed in themselves and when it turns out that in the next session the results are not appropriate then this is where the problem will continue where the amount of their losses is getting bigger and they get more emotional when faced with the situation, so this is another reason why chasing losses is always not recommended.

and the downturn can be even more tragic when the money you use to chase losses is money borrowed.

I agree because the problem might be bigger than that when a gambler develops that thought of chasing losses. And not just borrowing money but even selling important things that they're able to buy through saving and hard work.

Chasing losses is always a bad idea that is always forbidden by everyone, and when someone chases losses using borrowed money then it is clear as I said above that the problem will be bigger when everything is not what we expected, and the biggest problem is the possibility that someone can get into debt, because I am not sure that they will only take a loan once, and also because in some cases the loan is always used as an alternative by gamblers to fund their gambling habits, they don't think about how they're going to pay it back and it's because of this kind of thinking that they end up having debt problems where a lot of loan services are charging them by coming to their house which is a situation that will continue if you don't pay all your debts immediately and obviously what this means is that gambling with borrowed money will eventually make our lives full of unusual tensions and pressures.

True. But the way I see chasing of losses is different from your view, a gambler cam decide to chase loss which I see as gambling again after a loss is incurred as far as his limit for that day or money allocated is not exhausted. I do not see that as chasing loss, but when your money is finished or you have reach your limit still you breach it then I can say a gambler is chasing a loss, simply gambling to recover is not a problem and I don't see any possible damage there.

The truth remains, self discipline, moderation and Money Management over everything when it comes to gambling.

If you have a gamble budget for the day and you gamble without winning any of the game till you exhaust your gamble budget for that day, does not mean that you are chasing your losses because you are discipline enough to have a gamble budget and you will not go beyond it, no matter the losses you incur. Loss chasing refers to gamblers who does not have any gambling budget, but rather gbke more than the amount that they can afford to lose. Since it is the amount that they cannot afford to lose, this will trigger their emotion and they will want to gamble more believing that they can win back what the have lost.

It is bad to chase your losses and the fact remains that you cannot recover what you have lost, this is the wrong mindset that some gamblers have. The reason why I said so is because if you think you can recover your losses, it will trigger you to continue gambling even when you have exhausted your gambke budget. This will lead to lack of self control and addiction because you will be gambling whenever you think you can recover your losses.

Chasing losses can happen in two ways. The first one, which you have explained, is when the gambler has spent all the money intended to be used for that day and goes ahead to add more deposits so they can continue gambling if they can win back what has been lost. 

The second one, which I think happens to some gamblers, is the foolhardy gambling pattern. From the beginning, the gambler can be cool and managing his bankroll effectively, but because they have encountered several losses, they get upset and want to take a break at that moment, but yet they are not convinced to stop; they feel that if they leave, that was when their luck might have come, and with such a mindset, they will keep gambling revengefully; they don't apply good bankroll management again; they are just 100%submissive to luck at that moment. If you ask them why, they would say they have tried their best to be cool, but they didn't win, so let them try something crazy.

On the moment you do make yourself bust all the capital or bankroll you do have on that particular day and didnt able to make out some other deposit then this do simply means that you do have that proper
control towards yourself and with your emotion on which this is really that a common that you might be able to changed up your mindset on the moment that you would be experiencing loses.
You would really be having that kind of hard time on the moment that you would be trying out to stop on the moment you've find yourself having that urge on playing more because you are trying to chase up your loses. Just like been said by others is that on the moment that you had find yourself having that kind of approach and mindset then it would really be that so hard on trying out to sustain yourself
and might be depositing even more.

In a way, it is. Gambling is a trap for addict players who cannot control their urge to gambling frequently.
It becomes a trap because the gambler loses all what he has got in the process of recovering losses.
It's not necessarily the same for others. It's a fun thing and a good entertainment for many people.
So it becomes subjective as the same thing might be good for one and bad for the other.

Yes, you are right, losing is a trap for someone who gambles, not just addicts, even those who are not addicted feel lured into making deposits and chasing their losses, and over time it can also lead to gambling addiction, and usually if they are lured into continuing to gamble, they we will increasingly lose control and lose the finances we have, therefore we should not easily get trapped if we have experienced defeat, it is better to stop gambling when the initial capital has run out and not try to chase these losses and stop for a while to calm our minds.

People who experience defeat are usually filled with emotions and find it difficult to control themselves and they are easily caught in the trap of continuing to play. It is indeed difficult to control ourselves when we have experienced a big loss, therefore before deciding to gamble, it is better for us to prepare ourselves mentally. be ready to face defeat that will occur so don't just think about winning but also think about the risks faced so that we remain controlled so as not to do things that are more detrimental because we are too chasing defeat.

Gamblers should think about the money they use for gambling as already lost, after all if you buy a video game, you do not really try to find ways to recover your money from the publisher if you liked it, you are just happy with what you got and enjoy your time playing the video game that you bought, and people should do the same with gambling, this way by considering that money as gone already, they will not be tempted to chase their losses, which is one of the more important factors which could lead a person towards addiction.

Its not really that a trap if you do really just that simply make yourself not to fall out with that kind of emotion on which you would really be letting yourself that out of control specially on spending up your money
on gambling because if you are really just that sensible on the actions that you are making then you wont really be finding any problems even if you do deal up with gambling. Gambling should really be just that for fun and entertaintment.The only issue for most people is that they do really lost control at the moment that they do lose money. If you arent that good on handling your emotions then most likely this would really be ending up on being a trap on which this could really that urge you to play even more. This is why gambling business is really that profitable into its owners because gamblers are really that trying out to break even on what they do have lost.

Chasing up loses is never been that good and at the moment you do find yourself on such condition then consider yourself to be that gradually addicted with gambling on which this isnt something good
or something that will really be that recommended. Dont make yourself comes into a point that you would be losing on everything. Moderation and control would be the key
so that in the end you wont be finding or making any problems in towards your finances.

All I can is that it's easier said that done. It's easy to say to a desperate gambler not to chase after his loses and it's even more easier to tell him to stop gambling but the real deal is that, is he even going to give you a listening ear. Sometimes gambler get so trapped in the act that they totally forget whatever they are doing even if what or where they are going is completely showing and reeking of red flag, they find it hard to stop untill they have successfully seen the end result to their actions and that's why my only advice is that people should just don't regret whatever actions they take when gambling because it's all part of the process rather learn how to know when things are getting all spoilt for you @losing streak.
