Slow down if you want to recover your losses

[harizen]

We will slow down or take a break for us to give our minds to relax to become ready again for our next gambling session. We will not slow down for a purpose of recovering our losses as that does not make sense to do. Instead of recovering our losses, our journey might end up worst.

Taking a break is necessary after a bitter loss t calm down our mind.

But remember when we return again to gambling, don't have a goal of recovering our losses.

People getting to urge more in playing gambling and one of the reason is they wins a lot or they lose a lot of money and of course as a revenge you would like to take you money back or make another profit. It depends now on the persons perspective because some of them want to stop playing already and set a limit and some of them want to play more a lot but still hoping to win this the reason why in playing gambling ideal if you have a lot of money else you lose or didn't enjoy the game

Sometimes if you make the satistics of people who played gamble a day or who play gambling in particular month and they calculate the amount or people who win a gamblling and amount of people who loses gambling, you will know that no person that has been a beneficiary in gambling that does not lose equivalent of what it wins or achieve in the gamblling, so I believe a gamblling is a personal race which is determine by chance of luck

Slowing down will help us recover to some extent, because we'll be very careful handling our fund. Beyond certain point once again we'll loss control and the same could end up losing. Whether it is slow gambling or fast, it is the luck that decide the winning. Even there are wins that have happened just because the person touched the max bet unknowingly. So, it is the luck and not the process.

I know that losing in gambling is very real but the extent that I am making my emphasis is the situation whereby you should have a stipulated amount of money I want to use for gambling because of when you lose the money it will not affect you and you playing it step-by-step or gradually when it happened to come to aspect of lose he will not think otherwise, so I know necessarily that gambling you can use it anytime any hour depending the way you play it

Prepare a certain amount of money for gambling so that if you lose you will not take money other than the predetermined amount. it's a good strategy to resist the urge to keep gambling when the losses keep coming. Doing gambling step by step, of course, aims so that the money doesn't disappear in an instant. But it all also depends on what the purpose of gambling is done. If it's only as entertainment, of course, profits are not really needed, but if gambling is a way to quickly make profits, you need a good strategy and money management. Don't become an addict, because that will lead to being too greedy.

I want to share my own technique on how I overcome my loss. You can share yours too on the comment below.

Not really something new I have done and continue doing this by pausing and watching movies on Netflix and coming back after a few minutes but getting the same results, winning sometimes but losing most of the time, sometimes it made me think that its the movie I watched not the slowdown or pausing.

The slow down bets makes me think clearly and stop me for doing risky bet. This is most important lesson I learned on this messy situation.

Give us an update after you made ten sessions and update us if you have a good average, if you have a good result that's good for you that doesn't mean that others will have the same results too.

That makes sense to think. If it's effective on OP so be it and I hope he will continue and be able to keep it that way. But realistically speaking, slowing down in gambling has nothing to do to recover our losses. They are just basically taking a break but the chances of losing are still there once gambled again.

There are lots of what-if scenarios in OP's given story and if unfortunate, the cycle of slowing down will just repeat without having good results.

In other words, no money is really being recovered.

[traderethereum]

It looks like @OP is too eager to recover losses which results in getting more losses.
That will not give good results, especially if we intend to recover losses and even if we think about going all-in for all money to recover losses, that is also difficult to achieve.
But @OP managed to defuse the tension by reducing the number of bets in each round but it would be better if at that point, @OP could take a break and walk out of the casino to rest and come back a few hours later or the next day.
And @OP is lucky to recover all his losses because it rarely happens to us.
If that happened to me, I would stop to rest and not continue playing, as I have done before.

[Wexnident]

Tbf, I've never actively tried to "recover" losses in cases of gambling. If it's lost, then well, it's lost, done and over. I'd rather prioritize having fun, no matter how simple or dumb the game is (or my actions are), though it's understandable if some want to actually recoup (though honestly, I'd rather you go into trading in that case instead of gambling).

After a big loss I just usually stop and go find some healing activity. It can be some reading, (usually immersive ones), sleeping, or exercising. I don't try to go back to gambling itself since, well, emotions get the best of me (and maybe for others as well). OP is pretty careful with that though since he can handle that slow recoup by playing rather often even after a big loss.

[Fundamentals Of]

Good for you if you can manage to do this. Many gamblers I suppose cannot easily feel at ease when the losses are increasing. I myself can testify that there is really that strong urge, that itch, to try to quickly recover all of them, at once if possible. This is probably the reason why the Martingale strategy was developed and widely used until now even if it is already proven that it is not a sound strategy. Sometimes, many gamblers cannot just accept that they're losing. For as long as they have the money, they will always try to recover them, and as quickly as possible.

I recently experienced a heated game session on blackjack that I never experienced before due to I over extent my budget to chase loss. I was down by 200$ while my current bankroll is only 100$. Typically most user will do all in to quickly recover losses but my strategy is to slow down and bet only on craps 5$ on each number. Craps has a low house edge because your only loss is when 7 appear while the rest of the number that you didn’t choose will just result as draw.

Craps pays x2+ per win which is good to slowly recovering my losses. I just continue same bet and stop gambling for a day after I recover 50$ of my bet. I keep doing this per day until I completely recover all my loss slowly and rest for the week.

Good advice here because all of us needs this to have , but the problem is that how can we afford to slow down when eagerness comes to place?
the main issue in this is that we often seek to win when the truth is losses is what we have gotten .
maybe try to analyze our self first , try to understand our thoughts and our dedication , if it is to win or to enjoy.

I think gambling requires a certain amount of luck because all of the games in the casino had a house edge that gives the casino owners a slight advantage over players, it is still risky betting a smaller amount of money while trying to recover losses since the house edge for the game is still the same. Over the long run, I think some players might still lose all of their remaining money if they got unlucky while trying to recover their losses.

then yes  , OP had been into gambling for such a time and now with realization on how to manage His losses, meaning that he had been into many things before and now learn His lessons.
actually this is what most gamblers must do but if we can manage to accept the fact that it is not easy and need perseverance and full dedication to succeed .

and discipline mate , because no matter how big or small the luck if you cannot control yourself from playing then everything will gone in after the luck.

I am not 100% sure how it is in Blackjack, but I imagine it is similar, if not the same as in Poker. A good bankroll management implies betting smaller when you have losses, in the case of Poker going down a level, and I imagine that the case you mention is similar.

In the same way, when you have profits you can bet bigger, because the point is to have a minimum of x times the bet, so you avoid the risk of bankruptcy in case of a bad streak.

Of course, I prefer to manage my bankroll by betting EV+. With EV- games, no matter how well you manage the bankroll, the long term tendency is going to be losing, although with good management the money will last longer.

[Issa56]

You slowing down those not really mean you will win back your loss, I don't really know how many times you have tried the strategy and it works for you, if it's just once or twice then I can say it's just a luck, but if it happens frequently then I can say the pattern works for you. If am losing in a bet, I don't even try to win back my loss at that moment because I will keep on losing, no matter how I slow down, the only thing I do whenever I noticed I already lose enough money is to stop gambling at that moment and come back later.

[Kakmakr]

The best advice will always be...  not to chase your losses, but your strategy is more focused on slowing down your own emotions. When players lose a lot of money, the emotions like "anger" kick in... and they want to have the last say or some kind of revenge... and that is the worst place to be in.

I also switch to something "smaller" ... to calm my emotions, when I hit a losing streak. If I can control that situation... I tend to hit something bigger to perk up my mood.

That is a good strategy.I have learned by playing slot machines that chances are higher when you are playing with the smallest available bet to play longer and thus having more chances to get the bonus round or feature game and maybe to win big.This is not assured when you play with a big bet as a huge balance is needed to play longer at that bet although usually the slot machine in the bonus round or feature game tends to give you much better winnings when you are playing with a big bet but that is a high risk.

I think there are a lot of people who use that strategy in crypto gambling. Because I know a gambler who has a little resemblance to what you do to recover from a loss somehow.

His strategy is that he only has a limit on the amount of his bet in each game he plays, and when that is reached, he moves to other casino games. Apart from that, when he wins a jackpot in gambling when he returns to playing again, he will first spend a week and then he will gamble again.

Slowing down and going back to smaller size bets is a nice idea to try and recover our losses. I might give it a try next time I face a bad gambling evening. There a few issues however for me when it comes to recovering losses in one session. First of all, I am a huge fan of martingale strategies, so whenever I face a loss I kind of have to double my betting sizes to recover all my previous losses. The problem here is that this leads to large bets fairly quickly when suffering a few losses in a row. Normally I don't believe in loss streaks, but there are evenings for me where I can't get into the greens at all, no matter how hard I try. Usually when facing too many losses I tend to switch games and start from scratch. Going from Black Jack to Roulette or Dice, is a good switch for me. Slowing down could also be a good idea when facing a loss streak, this would help with the issue of losing a lot of money quickly due to doubling up every bet. Instead of trying to recover our previous losses in one single bet, the idea would be now to stick to smaller bets and recover over a longer period of time. Another problem is also my head, whenever losing 3-4 times in a row my brain keeps telling me it's only one more round for me to win. It feels a bit like I deserve to win now because I lost so much already, which is of course not true. The rounds are not connected and the casino doesn't know how much I lost or won, the chances are always the same.

For me it is better to quit and restrategize after a big lose. Trying to recover your loss can be counterproductive. You might be tempted to stake more than your budget or your limit when you are gunning to recover your losses. But slowing down and betting in less risky games might also be a fair option as all long as it is not above your budget or limit. But from my experience, the more I try to chase my losses it is the more I go deeper into losses. Therefore, I have learnt to take a break or go home after incurring some losses. It gives me the strength and strategy to come back and enjoy my game and not necessarily to pursue my losses.     

[worle1bm]

Slowing down works for me this time because my usual approach on this is to martingale

OMG, LOL!
Well, anything else is better than Martingale
In this case, slowing down was already a huge step forward.

Right I also find it more aggressive betting through Martingale strategy as you have more chance of losing through it and can also go beyond your budget but don't know it somehow works for some players and they recommend it but for me it's not good so avoid it according to me as well.
