Frustrations: Losing Streak

[Nerman]

Being emotional or frustrated will lead you to more losing because when you are on an emotional state you will become illogical.

It is actually great  that you can still stand up the table and at least calm yourself before playing again.

When I am in a losing streak I just stop, I  just always set a stop loss and if I hit that then it is bye-bye table see you another day.

It sounds funny to say, but a losing streak is usually followed by a winning streak. Here is the dilemma, I lost so many plays in a row so I should stop... but surely this cannot go on forever and I will start winning again. Think about it...

I agree on your point mate, being in the condition of frustration is the stage of uncontrollable feelings due to losing streak that sometime we can make those bad doings and in the worst case will commit a crime. Each of us can feel to be frustrated but sometime its our own thoughts that might our pride was affected. In order to avoid or minimize the frustrated moment if you already have too many losses much better to stop and relax for awhile since its not your luck, to relieve frustration moments.

I know that every one of us had this day when we all thought that it's our day but it's not. I myself honestly say that there are still times that I lose control of everything when this happens, I tend to get frustrated immediately (especially when it comes to poker) when I know that I have a losing card. It makes my day from bad to worst. How do you handle your frustrations when losing streak strikes?

Though before I've reached a point in where I'll be having a thought of chasing my loses, I'll leave the table and look for a dessert or sometimes when I bring my car, there's a clothing that I can rip just to let my frustrations out. (It may sound absurd but it really works for me, after that my mind is clear, no frustrations then I'll go back and finish my visit)

I dont usually gamble but I already felt why you have felt. I feel frustrated especially when I am losing in gambling.

What I am doing is to move on, plan for another move after I lost my money. Sometimes I punch the walls to remove my frustration or sometimes I am playing games.

Different strategies work for different people. I rarely get frustrated, even when I lose because I always set a limit and never go over it. It's usually $20 or $50 at the most. If I lose it, I will just leave the casino and take a break from gambling for a while.

Good for you mate, but other gamblers can't really control their emotions when it comes to losing. I also try that limit strategy, and sometimes it works, specially at a landbased casino wherein I just bring enough money.

But most of the time, I really can't do it, I wanted to recoup my losses. Specially losing streaks that you really are frustrated and wanted to recover everything because you can't accept that you are losing.

Online Poker is a zero sum game - you pay aprox 10% in fees on everything, the odds are simply against you.
Why play poker if you can have real crypto / stockmarket access with way fairer odds if you know what you do.

Look, i love the poker game, and i love to play it online, however, since the odds are so bad i only play for very very marginal sums purely to enjoy the game - for money i go to real markets.

Gambling for money shouldn't be even considered as an option, but it's not because the odds are so bad as you put it. Imagine a situation when a poker site takes only 0.5%. If that was the case, would you risk big amounts trying to make money with gambling? If your answer is yes, than you are wrong, because you can lose even on a site with zero house edge and that's why it is recommended to play only with money you can easily afford to lose, enjoying the game.

No losing streak will frustrate you much if the amount you lose adds up to a price of a movie ticket in total.

That ia what you called discipline. You can control yourself in gambling. There are some gamblers who cant control themselves and when they are losing, the become more greedier because they want to get their money back. The end - result? Probably a loss.

I had 21 loosing streak on a 1:1 odds while I was going on a martingale.

That is good. Its becomes horrible for the player if they get frustrated on their previous losses and keep on dwelling on the past events of loss thinking they can win big in future. In the end they will always lose before they make up their money and thus they need to stop playing at one time.

But most of the time, I really can't do it, I wanted to recoup my losses. Specially losing streaks that you really are frustrated and wanted to recover everything because you can't accept that you are losing.

Gambling is not the way to make up your losses. It will only lead to more losses and its vicious cycle. Whenever you try to make up the loss the losing streak will take over and wipe out your balance again. If you continue to play the losses will escalate.

I am mostly stopping my play
Never try to get back  money fast
For me it is signal that i am tired and i need to rest
Find balance do not force yourself
Game has to be fun also not only money and money

Most people will lose control when they are in a losing position. They tend to make decisions based on emotion alone. The desire to chase the loss as quickly as possible has blinded common sense.

The best thing that I do is let the days pass and it works for me. That worst feeling will stay on me for a while and it is hard to fight. It is like the gambling is calling my body to play again to win it back and my mind is fighting it just to keep me from losing again.

In gambling, many gamblers make this mistake time to time and end up losing a lot of money in gambling. As we all know most of these games including those skill-based games also needs some luck to win then there is no point to get frustrated because luck is not in our control. But what we can do is set some limit for each session of gambling and enjoy the games. I usually set a small amount for each time and never expect anything from it but if I win some money then consider that day I'm very lucky and if not, enjoy my free time.

when you get consecutive defeat, it's a good time to stop gambling. it could be lucky not to be with you, or you are not in a good mood while playing. it's better to quit when it's getting a streaks defeat.

Sometimes you can't because it's really hard to stop especially when you are not expecting you'll be in a cold streak.
I have been in the situation many times in my life, and it made me regret but until now I still do gambling, it seems like quitting is really hard because there is a fun in gambling although it's very risky.

Yeah there's always that urge to continue until you break a losing streak, which most of the time doesn't end too well. That's probably because people can't accept the fact that they've lost quite much and is eager or desperate to recover losses, and losing more in the process

Sometimes I also employed that strategy because lately, I'm not having a good winning streak. Maybe today I will win, but the next days will be really off for me. So I decided not to play successive days specially if I won big. I will completely stop for about 5 days and enjoy my winnings before going to a casino again. Because I believed that I can't won 2-3 days in a row, unlike the previous months wherein I have a winnings and on the positive side.

The lose their mind when they realize that they were living in a land of dreams when they entered the casino with the hope of becoming a millionaire in a day. Sometimes people block away their common sense in order to dwell in the fantasies - in this case it is getting rich quick which is the ideal way to lose money.

While on a losing streak most people continue to gamble and they cant stop because they either want to make up the money they lost or they want to try their luck still. Both of them end in the vicious cycle.

When it comes to me and gambling frustrations, if I start getting frustrated it is time to leave, i probably should not be gambling in the first place frustrated. Thats my opinion

In gambling one must be very patient because haste and anger can’t work here, even they can make the conditions worse. In gambling a person must know how to be patient and how to control his/her emotions, only then he can be a successful gambler. If a person is losing in gambling continuously then he should quit it immediately and should take a break for some time to remain calm rather than spending more and more money in it.
