Frustrations: Losing Streak

[kurian]

I'll stop betting and take a break for a while. Listen to some music or watch movie. I would keep myself busy with other things and that will help to forget about the loss.  I won't come back for few days. First thing I do when i get back is to change my seed and client seed. After that I'll fresh start with a different strategy.

You need to have a better self control, change your mindset, gambling is not supposed the place for making money and you can't expect to win all the time, if you can't handle the lost then maybe gambling is not for you, if you force yourself to play you will end up more frustrated and even can fall into addiction

That's definitely a rule that everyone should do. In the gambling section, there are a lot of topics that could help you with gambling addiction, and I guess reading it wouldn't help because an action is needed. That could be seen and be read in most of the threads. If you manage to create the action for yourself, you wouldn't be in deep trouble.

Where the mistake usually comes from is that, a lot of people always feel relaxed at finding a strategy and believing that is enough to set them up to making good gains from gambling but forgetting that things can change in a minute. I remembered when I started using martingale to gamble on dice and roulette, I got so comfortable with it until I realized no matter what, the house edge will always test your control once in a while and we get to fall for that as we keep betting higher even with the losing streaks until we are totally out.

You can always change the seed immediately and continue playing. I don't believe that there are unlucky seeds. You could even have higher chance of success with the old seed because it has the history of a streak and it has to come to an end. Usually there are no totally lucky or unlucky players. The system is made to balance itself and after a losing streak comes a winning streak.

At first I got a big win in sports betting and after a few days I played again with a crazy parlay system, day by day I kept losing until I ended up running out of capital and frustration increasing.

Well the fault was theta you fell for the parley system of wins. Having a large green streak is not always possible and thus you are bound to lose one or two in a parley if you have several bets lined up there. The thing you should have done is that you should have stopped betting after some time in order to recover by other means (not by gambling).

Basically dealing with frustration depends on the personality of myself, I happen to have no blind emotion and I can still fully control my emotions as the emotions increase, so everything is still okay.

Frustration is an emotion. Hence not being able to control it shows you have no control over it. This is common and you can overcome it with time.

If you deal with it in a correct manner then you can overcome that emotions, being frustrated is the biggest mistake a gambler should never have, this game of luck should be played wisely and emotionless as time goes by and being engaged to much will bring two things, getting addicted or being professional, you have to choose your correct path and still enjoy, or quit and forget about this gambling activities.

It’s obvious that if we are not able to control our frustration, we have no control over it and by the passage of time we can get control over time but still that time span would be much more than you and I can imagine, maybe it will take the whole life to get control over it and under that time span, we would definitely face a lot of things that will make us much frustrated.

Losing money is really frustrating even if it just a gamble money or money you are willing to lose, what more if you put on risk the money you need for something. This is why most gamblers ended up hurting themselves. They cannot bare the frustrations of getting lost and continue to gamble even if it hurts them a lot. People should learn to control themselves more often.

I will give a break too like you because I think it is better to leave the gambling places for a while and do another thing like you said. but I will come back in the next week and I don't play too long because this will makes me get another loss. and since I don't play games for a long time, I think I can handle my emotion when I am lost and so far, I don't take too long in the gambling sites because I only want to spend my time in dice games.

As if it was that easy to control emotions especially if you're having lossing streak. It's easy to say that if you're not the one in the situation. Believe me it's not that easy to control. You're getting hot and betting wild like you're not thinking about money you're about to lose. All you want is to recover while in angry mood.

LOosing is a part of gambling that we all gamblers need to accept. Only few people around the world that have wins more than losses. Frustration push some to gamble more and more trying to regain what they loss and that’s a mistake. It’s a trap. If you ever had a long streak of losses just back up and reconcider your game plan or change the game just don’t chase your losses it’s a huge mistake.

Right. Many people lose logic and common sense when they get frustrated and it's easier for them to make bad stupid decisions that would further dig them deep. People lose a lot of money when they're frustrated because they don't think straight anymore.

If the gamblers that are seriously addicted to gambling does really felt the frustration of losing their money to casino, they should really stop gambling, but most of the time, I just saw them repeating their gambling activities everyday, and it is extremely difficult to convince them to quit gambling.

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)

Finish the session then take a break, don't come back for few days or even weeks, do something else, make yourself busy. Accept your losses, have a positive mindset when you return, try different games.

And all that frustration is against the great lesson that mathematics (probability theory) teaches us, i.e. that losing streaks of any arbitral length will eventually happen with probability 1.0 for everybody if they play long enough ...

Put yourself a limit. No matter how much the streak continues, if you have a set amount you are willing to bet on and never go beyond than you can lose that at most. If you put yourself a 50 dollars limit everyday and bet on the place until you lose it.

The streak can be nasty and you can lose that 50 dollars in less than a minute but in the end you will go out knowing that you only put 50 dollars in the line like you promised. If you go beyond that than it means you do not have self control over yourself.

It doesn't mean going beyond your limits doesn't have self control, but there were situations that you need to go beyond because of perceptions. Nobody could really prevent a person to stop that, unless you're his/her mentor in gambling. It was just funny to hear that a gamber needs a mentor, or maybe we can call it a financial advicer to advice you in times confusions. With another cases of controlling ourselves, maybe we shoudl have to learn that if we're not having an assurance of pursuing that unpredicatable decisions to make.

Every losing streak must come to an end. Stay strong brotha!

Stay strong in gambling and stay poor based on your definition of every losing streak must come to an end.
However, if you have a limit and it reached that limit with a huge losing streak, it is always better not to push further and just simply assume the winning was not just meant to be at that point in time.

A lot of people will want to push further to see if the possibility of increasing the bet can bring back what they have lost, but it is better to remember that the more the bet is being increased, the more the chances of losing everything.

The question is, do we still have enough funds to cover it up? Or is there no maximum profit rule in the casino we visit? Yes, lossing streak may end up, but those two things, I am sure, will stop us from doing so.

Kind of mentality on where most addicted gamblers do have which they do pushes out things which they do know that they are already suffering too much. Yes, everything has its end but the question is how long you can hold further? You dont have that kind of unlimited bankroll for you to hold for long.If you bust it out your entire balance then its better not to push even more because it would definitely cost you even more losses. Common mistakes of gamblers is that they can accept defeat and doesnt mind about that "call it a day".

A losing streak is bound to happen eventually, and likely to happen ever so slightly more often than a winning streak if you're playing purely luck based games. I think it's important to realise when you need to take a break, a streak only becomes a streak if they're concurrent losses. Take a break, or switch to a different game and try your luck there. Just remember the last time you had a winning streak, and realise that now the odds are balanced as expected by chance.

Sometimes there were times that no matter what you switch games you still lose in a row, i guess this is how people play purely just by luck and not by experience. The frustration is pushing you to play more and will tend you to lose your self control and eventually lead you to play without thinking.

find the right time to gamble and do not force yourself to pursue the victory, because that's what will make us experience a successive defeat ,, it would be great if we gamble abnormally, or in other words are in a state of frustration ..

Our frustrations serves as our strength by the time we experienced difficulties in gambling, and the most important ways to deal with it was taking it as a challenge. Never surrender, because in absence of victory there's hope in every failure. Maybe it's not your luck now, but think about it that you could overcome frustrations as long as you're pursuing to fulfill that goals of winning.

Yeah you are right but in vain. Ripping your clothes (never try to rip clothes of other people otherwise you will be beaten) will never decrease your frustration, but one thing can reduce your anger and that is to win back your lost money and for that you will have to gamble more and in frustration you will never win the game. It is better not to gamble.

One major mistake most gamblers do is to play under pressure and stress, this lead them to huge loss.
You should always need to calm down whenever you are in that condition.

To handle my frustration i admit that it’s not my day and i usually leave the betting/gambling platform immediately.
