I have a friend who wins 15,000 pesos or $300 the first time keno games in an offline betting outlet, he is so happy and very ecstatic about his winnings, I congratulate him and ask him how long before he hit the jackpot, he told me that it took him 7 months and he is betting daily at 100 pesos or $3 so his losses are bigger than winnings.
But surprisingly he did not calculate his losses all he cares about is he finally wins, how about you do you remember your losses when you win a big amount and do you calculate your losses and ask if the winning is worth it?
This is very common, gamblers will tell you stories about the amazing profits they got one day but if you ask them about their losses they will tell you they do not remember but you can see in their faces that deep down they know they have lost more money than what they have won, so if you want to avoid this the only way is to keep detailed records of how much money you brought to the casino and how much money did you had when you left, this way you can easily see if you are losing more money than what you can afford and stop gambling if necessary.

Our goal is to win, if this will bring back negative memories of losses then we are not actually winning, we are just going back to a situation where we actually lose, it's not good that you remember and calculate your losses every time you lose, just have fun enjoy your winnings and you are good to go.
Yes while willing better not to keep any bad memories in your mind it can discourage you for further gambling wins. You want to win so keep your goal in your mind and if you had any bad experiences in past you only remind your lose to learn from it and never repeat again all those faults which can make you get discouraged.

I always remember what I did wrong in the past, my loss in the past even though I won big, maybe because I'm a woman who is psychologically sensitive to something Remember guys, gambling should be for fun, not profit. If you think you'll get rich gambling, think again.
I totally agree with this, but the desire of some people to benefit and even wealth through gambling is still very large.

The thing is psychology lol. You know something, emotions are one part of the human system that complicates us. It's very difficult controlling it. The more you become euphoric about an act, the more you'd want to do it again and that's what eat gamblers up.

Of course yes I remmber all my loses and I compute my lose and I compar and calculate how much money I eaen or I win for only a break even. That is very important because computation and calculation is part of the analysis how to control ourself as gambler.

Good topic, I don't think that most gamblers remember their losses to be honest (including me). All they think of is that they just won and that's what matter most for them. And I doubt that gamblers realised that or put their losses on paper so that they would know how much money they have lost so far. I think most gamblers will think that our losses is a part of the past now and we shouldn't think about it anymore since we can't get back what we've lost already and we can't change anything from the past. This kind of mindset is for gamblers who do have self-control that's not stressing too much of how he lost that money since in the first place it is his own fault and he enjoyed it so it's just fair to pay for entertainment. Exactly, we don't need to remember our loss, but it is better if we can know how much our loss so we can prevent to get more losses in the future. Besides that, we can know that playing gambling will only give us losses because we don't know when we can win the games. When gamblers can win some money, they will forget that in the past, they are losing so much money before they can win. And if they can realize that, perhaps they will think twice to continue playing gambling and risk more money in gambling. Or if they want to play gambling, they can play with small money, and if they can win again in those games, they will consider that is because of luck, and they need to leave the places. Knowing your loss or able to calculate doesn't give you the thing on preventing more losses on the future yet everything is random.The thing here is that you are pretty aware that you are having soo much loss than winning.If you do know how to control up yourself then its good since you are fully aware and would able to stop if things goes severe. Loss will really be part of the past and its true that majority will not bother out to think of those loss yet on what is important is on the things that they are currently experiencing. At least, we can prevent from using more money to gamble so that we can avoid more losses in the future. If we can calculate that, I think we can know how much we lose, and we can feel that it is not good if we still continue playing gambling for a long time. We can also think that we need to limit the time of playing gambling so we can have more time to do other things. By limiting our time and money in gambling games, we can hope that we can always remember that playing gambling is only for fun and we don't have to chase the winning. But that will be not easy as we know that gambling will always tempt us to continue the game until the last money we have.

I totally agree with this, but the desire of some people to benefit and even wealth through gambling is still very large. That's a human nature to expect lucky profit from gambling, and we can't deny that. Although the reality is for fun and not profitable, most of the people relied on that expectations of profit, that's why many of us became addicted. It is also in human nature to believe and to expect high in gambling. To consider this as a source of income it might possible, in fact, a lot of person become progressive just because they become addicted into gambling and become a successful gamblers. Not all of us are destined to become a gambler, they are only few and that is why many where unable to make money in here rather than to make lose.

Sometimes it will take time to forget big losses in gambling, but we need to forget it in order for us to enjoy our following gambling session. Most of us are just losers so winning big is not ordinary and therefore this is something that will excite us as a gambler who just gamble for fun.
I myself have lost a lot of money in gambling, sometimes I regret losing big especially when I loss control but eventually I just forget it as I know I need to accept, otherwise, I will have to stop gambling and I would not have fun anymore in my life. Gambling though risky but it's already part of my life, it doesn't matter if I have more loses than my winnings as long as I can experience winning moments.
Obviously, it is very hard to forget loses. In short, this is the most difficult thing to do, the more we try to forget, the more the thoughts keep occurring especially when the money involved is quiet big. The only way loses can be forgotten is when I big win is made and that must come immediately after the loss if not one will continue to live with the thoughts and the bad thing about this Is that the thoughts will be hurting even negatively because once you remember the last loss, there will be fear of playing again and this can be tiring. I was lucky, my last loss was huge, in short I didn’t know how to proceed with the game but the next trial brought me joy, I didn’t only recover my loss but I made even more.

On gambling, its just really a matter of luck and not all gamblers would have the same mindset on how they do react into their own losses. Some would just act just like there was nothing and proceed on and hunting up way to win and some do mind it too much which stresses them out and the primary reason why they do continue.Actually both scenarios do still end up on the same outcome which is being persistent on playing even they are already losing.

No, because the tendency of most gamblers is to gamble more, not minding their loses, all they want is to have more winnings, thats the nature of their addictive endeavour.

This isn't the addictive nature, just because they have lost and thinking of the loss users will try to recover what they've lost in the past. Whether it is big win or small, always the losses will be remembered, and this is a very fine thing about gambling. Maybe if the entire losses were recovered with the big win then they might not think about the losses.

Yes, they only think about how to win the games without thinking about how if they lose more money. They will forget about their losses in a few days or weeks or months ago because today, they can win some money. It feels like what they lose in a few moments ago is not exist because now they have the money. They will only remember about their winning, and they will tell other people that they can win from gambling. But unfortunately, they don't realize that to get a win in the gambling games will need much money and of course, they will need luck too.

A few years ago, I lost a lot of money in the dice. I tried to play by Martingale's strategy with a minimum bet and saw good results. But when I increased the initial bet I got 8 times in a row "no". My money was just not enough for the next bet.
After that, I don't gamble very often, but if I do, then before the game, I determine exactly how much I can afford to lose.
I am surprised that someone still uses martingale, I thought it has been mentioned here many times that the strategy is doom or you never knew? So what led you to trying it. Well this is not the time to put blames. I am sorry about your loss and I believe you must have recovered since it’s been years now. ONE more thing, I think that I noticed from your post that you have already prepared to lose a game even before you play it, I think this is a very wrong mentality, and I hope you work on changing this mentality because its possibly the reason behind your loses and martingale cannot be blamed so much for this. Back to the post, I don’t see any reason to remember my loss if I win big, We only remember loses when we keep on losing.

It depends how big the win is.If you just win an accumulator like a ticket with 10 games and you win for example 0.5 to 1 Bitcoin it is surely a big win but it is not enough to forget my lost money because I have lost a whole more money by gambling.This is a great consolation prize as I can start to recover with that but I cannot easily forget my lost money.

It's like paying homage to those dollars you have lost along the way that help you get to where you are right now Anyway, if I lost a lot on casino games, I just don't care about it and I'm more open to losing on that facet of gambling rather than losing on sports betting. I do have my own portfolio of W-L over time in sports betting, including the amounts gained/lost as well. I'm well over the W right now and I'm definitely okay with it, though I could still be on a losing streak knowing that I don't track my casino loses, but whatever.

This doesn't happen only via gambling, it also can be observe in real life. You subconsciously forget about all the struggles you have gone through, the moment you achieve success. This struggles could be countless sleepless nights because you're training, preparing for examination/interview or positing yourself to take advantage of an opportunity when it does present itself. One way or the other, we all have at some point fallen victim to this. I have fallen victims on numerous occasions, you can't fight it as it's just in our human nature to forget our sorrows (in this case lost funds) when we do achieve success. Here's a possible solution, it's always advisable to keep a record of how much you spend in gambling, as with this record you can always rate yourself if you're making progress or just wasting your time.

That's the correct mindset. Too many people think they can simply keep doubling up until they eventually get the hand they want. However, they'll soon reach a point where they can't afford to double up again and will be faced with the decision whether to keep going or accept your losses and stop. The bigger man will be able to know when to call it a day, whereas the problem gambler will continue. Remember guys, gambling should be for fun, not profit. If you think you'll get rich gambling, think again. There's actually two type of gambler: 1. Those who love to play no matter what the result ... they are happy doing so 2. Those who looking for profit in the long run , I doubt you can do it in casino but possibly sportsbetting have better chance. The OP story show us how his friend gamble for entertainment and doesn't even care how much he have lost in the past , the most important for him is that time when he won a 300x jackpot , fair enough for those who looking for entertainment in gambling. But not for those who looking for profit , they would of course calculate everything.

I have a friend who wins 15,000 pesos or $300 the first time keno games in an offline betting outlet, he is so happy and very ecstatic about his winnings, I congratulate him and ask him how long before he hit the jackpot, he told me that it took him 7 months and he is betting daily at 100 pesos or $3 so his losses are bigger than winnings.
But surprisingly he did not calculate his losses all he cares about is he finally wins, how about you do you remember your losses when you win a big amount and do you calculate your losses and ask if the winning is worth it?
For lots of people gambling is a hobby, if he’s having fun & gambling with only $3 usually then maybe he doesn’t mind losing. It’s only like going out with friends & drinking beer. If he’s having fun then cool. Obviously when he wins $300 he forgets all those little losses even if he’s still down. As long as he’s not getting himself into financial trouble then let him get on with it

Ticket wins aren't memorable although it's still giving that feeling of relief that you have won. And winning such amount from the example that you have given will be remembered though but the point is when you have won that much, you will also calculate your losses and extract on how much you've won or break even with that winning.

If that so when we got a win and specially with that amount in which good money,we intend to be happy and forget everything just for a day or so
