Keeping a record of your gambling losses will make you sad hahaha LOL.

I agree that is why I stop looking at all my losses, it's very depressing seeing how many money you have lost from gambling but it cannot stop me from gambling I just minimize the funds I spend and the time that I allocate, it will keep you in a safe side if you can control yourself.

   Yatsan is right, keeping a record of gambling loses can make a man sad, if it's negative. People who lost a lot, or losing a lot of
money regularly in gambling would be depressed when ever they need to write down one more lose! That can be a good thing for
them, they will think about stopping often.
   I don't keep a record of my loses, not on paper! I have it my head, after a gambling session I know how much I win/lost and I add that
to my previous results, it's the way I keep track.

I take Gambling as a part of entertainment and I think gambling is just like a game. I play gamble for fun to relieve my daily fatigue and to eliminate the monotony of work. That’s why I don't need to keep any record but if you take it seriously and are a professional gambler, if you want to make money through gambling, then you must have a trend to keep records. It will help you for thinking about what you have lost or what you earn.

What do you think, will Keeping A Record Of Your Losses Will Make You Realize To Stop Gambling?
After seeing that you could have bought a new motorbike or buy an expensive watch on all your losses that you have computed.

I think this works in 2 ways, the first way is the one you mentioned, making gamblers realize its time to give up on gambling after so many losses.
The second way is the anger and desperate drive that losses can cause, it sometimes forces gambler to keep on playing, and gambling until all is lost.

I think striking a balance between lifestyle and gambling will help alone.

Same here. I only gamble just for the fun of it.
Not really a regular gambler so on my end, I don't need to keep the record of my gambling activities.
This is for gamblers that need to assess their status in gambling, who are spending their money that should be allotted for basic necessities.
They need to see the real picture of it. How much they are really spending in gambling.
It is like, they need to see the numbers in front of their eyes.

Probably yes, because when you seeing your record that you can almost buy a car but it was already a loss. If you have saved that in the bank it might you can buy a car but instead of doing that you are in gambling, keep going even your money is not enough for your family as long as your habit was prioritized of yours. Then, seeing your record makes you realized to limit your money that spends in gambling or fully stop gambling.

Keeping a record will not help us to stop gambling if we don't have the awareness to stop gambling, and we don't realize that gambling can get all our money. We can see the record, and maybe we will say to ourselves that we will get those losing money in the next chance. Maybe that can attract us to play gambling longer than we can think because we are already losing the money, and we want to win that money. It needs more than a record to make us stop gambling, but that can happen for some gamblers.

[Debonaire217]

What if it happens the opposite way? Because not all the time people losses, there are some that are fortunate to their betting. Well, if we figure out that we are betting huge amount of money too often then we are winning through it, will it make us stop gambling? I guess not, so what we should consider to stop gambling is our losses, and it doesn't directly mean that if we record just our losses, we will stop gambling. Try to compare winnings and losses and see the results. Then analyze the result to form conclusion that will make us a better gambler, not to surrender, there are ways to limit betting, because believe me or not, if we are betting for a long time, it is like taking something a part from us and that will make us feel sad and incomplete.

If you know that you are losing a lot or just could not control yourself from getting hooked to the gambling, then actually maintaining the books is very good idea. Though you will feel bad and sad about loses but it only help you in your future and time will come where you can have full control on yourself where either you can just play for fun or only play once a while.

I have always kept a record of my gambling when it comes to sports betting as I like to track if I'm making a profit each year or a losing year. My strategy is when I have a losing week or I see more then two days in a row where I've had losing days, I take a break and come back in 3-5 days time and I have found that this helps me out a lot. Its always good to take a break after a bad couple of days as for me it stops me from betting more to make up losses which so many do and end up losing more so I suggest people take breaks when they have a losing patch, it can help a lot so keeping a record can help track losing days.

Keeping a record of your gambling losses will make you sad hahaha LOL. But, still it's not gonna stop you from gambling, stopping on gambling will make difference in every person so it might boost you to get back those losses and bet big or just like you said it might stop you considering that, it will make you sad. For me, there's only one way to stop from gambling and that's like every addiction solution is; little by little, cut the time you are on gambling and focus on the other thing in that way, you are slowly stopping on gambling and that's the very effective way to cure your any kind of addiction including gambling addiction.

It is really depends on how you see your records, maybe there are people who seeing it as motivation to become more better gambler or maybe they seeing it as a way to stop gambling especially if their records are more on losses. I do recording but my reason why I do it is simply because I want to improve my skills and develop the area that I am weak. I am not part of the people who recording because they want to stop gambling, I record because my goal is to learn and not to stop.

This means that you are a long term sports bettor, and I presume to have a bankroll for the whole year or whole season of the games you are gambling.
As for me, I only manage to tally my record for the whole season, I like betting on NBA games so I make a record of my history and there its easy to determine my profitability rate as that will tell if we are successful or not, then adjustment will happen.

Tracking our past records of our gambling history is necessary especially if we want to know if we are still profitable in doing gambling. I have spreadsheets where I record my history their everytime I bet in esports or any sports related online betting for me to know my strength and weaknesses. Before I bet, I also record my emotions and also after the results; I also record my emotions and feelings. I always giving care on how I feel because gambling psychology is also important and we cannot ignore it especially if we want to be a better gambler.

This is only for those people who cannot control themselves when playing so they must have realization how much amount they are losing because of their falls gambling habits but for responsible?nope this is not necessary since everything can be settled by our own activities.
Enjoy playing and don't take it seriously because if you did?then either frustration,bitterness or addiction is what you will get.

I don't think it works like that.
Even if you can control yourself and by the time that you see your losses you will feel the same way. Having control over yourself doesn't mean that you don't lose in gambling, right?

I would consider this as a good indicator that you are still far from being addicted to gambling. If you are still feeling sad looking back at your losses, that means your sanity is still intact. That is basically good. You should be afraid when you are on a long losing streak and you feel nothing at all. If you start to feel numb over the amount of money you have wasted on the gambling table and yet you keep on coming back, that is already alarming.

[Clark05]

Maybe for the others keeping recording their all losses after the computation what they lose maybe they think that instead of playing gambling they save the money so that's the point that they have chance to stop playing gambling.

But I did not do that because I can manage myself right now so there is no need any computation those people I think to do that is the player who become addict.

Yes because in the end of the day you will realize that your losses is to much and you wouldn't add more than that and self control will be applied when people who do that see his records, but its hard to find people doing this thing since most of the gamble doesn't even care if they lose or win since they are just playing just to have fun.

Of course because money is hard to earn and what if the money that they earn is the salary to their work.
So if recording money that you losses make you sad don't do that but for sure recording all your winnings makes you happy.
I believe a player don't need to record any money they lose or even winnings just controm yourself is enough.

True, why people track their record is they want to take gambling seriously, their goal is to win and they want to know if they are already consistent or not, it's their guide to ensure that they are going into a journey with a realistic approach, typical gamblers does not need this, we just go in and out,.. we are not here to fully focus with a mission.
