What are your takes on revenge gambling?

[Viscore]

In my opinion, an attempt to win back a loss is one of the most common mistakes that admit a gambler at a time when he was overwhelmed with emotion.

Gambling means that the casino has an advantage over the player and the longer you play the more likely you are to lose. If you think that it is so easy to return the money you lost you are very mistaken and you need to reconsider your views on gambling.

In general, you should try to play not to win, and for the pleasure of the game, but some gamblers never come to this understanding.

Gamblers hardly realize that gambling is to mostly lose, and not to make profits all the time. That the gambling casino house has always the advantage over the players, whether those games are luck or chance based, or even skilled based games. The reason why gamblers should always consider it as a means of entertainment rather than seeing as a means of living. Gambling will always be fun and exciting if we play and win, but we should also be more open to losses as they can always be inevitable, and just learn to accept them, but never to chase.

Revenge gambling is often experienced with money that isn't the gambler's. And it ends in more losses because of the anxiety, pressure and lack of emotional control. It is better to admit losses and strategize another day to gamble, instead of moving with that eagerness to recover what has already been lost.

 Revenge in real sense ends in disaster because the mind is already unstable, the same applies to gamblers when they try revenging their loss.

Just as the topic implies, What really are your thoughts on revenge gambling?
Revenge gambling can be seen as a situation where one chases after their loss after making huge loss which to me ends up a disaster.

One of the major reasons people chase after loss is
*using money they can't afford to loss to gamble
*Over expectations.
These two are the major reasons people indulge in revenge gambling and my questions are
~ What are your thoughts on revenge gambling?
~ what other reasons would make some indulge in revenge gambling?
~ What are the measures to help combat revenge gambling?

Please lets discuss

The term revenge alone implies negativity, so it would not be useful one’s pursued. Just like in revenge gambling, the only reason I’ve seen players resorting to this is that maybe they have been into huge losses and just want to recover them, or they have been seeing gambling as a source of income and make high expectations that they will eventually gain money from it in the long run. But most likely, the worst scenario will eventually takes place. Once we gamble more and chase over our losses, we end up losing even more. It’s good to gamble and set limits, but once uncontrolled, we all know it will never be fun and profitable anymore.

I don't quite agree with you, to whom the player can take revenge? This is a common desire to recoup a defeat, but often this does not bring anything good, only leads to additional losses. If the player managed to win a good amount, or it happened that a significant amount was lost, then at this day is just worth stopping. Doing something on emotions is bad, you need a clear think when it comes to money, it’s better to calm down and think about what happened, and the next day figure out how to get out of this situation.

This is the usual scenario for many gamblers, they keep on chasing their losses with a hope that they can get it back but in the end, they lose more because of this greedy action. In gambling once you lose the money you should not chase it anymore because luck is not on your side and you might lose more. Just gamble the money you can afford to lose, have a budget on that and stick to that budget.

Just sleep it off, and just go back to your games when you think you are emotionally refreshed.
If you will revenge your losses, this will incur more losses as your emotions are at peak and you may not be thinking logically.
It is true that this scenario is typical for gamblers who want to get back their losses.
But it is not advisable if you will get back using borrowed money, with the main aim of recovering it.
You will incur more debt and you are just digging your hole in this activity. Remember it is gambling, and winning is not always on your side.
And if you are playing those luck-based games, keep in mind there is HE and luck, just few factors that will not guarantee your winnings.

They let their emotion control their decision which is too bad in gambling, once you already hit your limit you should commit on that and accept the result. Gambling is addicting, if you lose self-control you will ended up broke and if that money is meant for something else problem after problem will occur so be more responsible, casinos wont run away you still have a lot of time to gamble in the next day.

After losing money and you want to revenge, then you will endup losing more money because you will be very desperate to win back the money you lose, their will be pressure on you which at the end you might endup losing more. If you lose in a bet, take a break for that day or that moment, you can come back another day and enjoy your gambling.

*using money they can't afford to loss to gamble

I have heard lots of stories about gamblers, I have seen when gamblers selling their properties just because they want to gamble, that's really wrong, if a person like that keeps on losing, then he will want to try his possible best to win back the amount he lost, so that he can get his property back, if you want to gamble, then do it with any amount you can afford to lose.

[Oshosondy]

I think revenge isn't always bad.

Take this or your leave it, revenge is always bad in gambling, if you lose from gambling and you want to recover the money from gambling,  that is how more money is going to be lost. According to my experience, the loss will also differ because it would be more and likely what will lead to what will take all the money the gambler is having that is available for gambling at that period of time. Even if you leave gambling for awhile and later think of revenge, that is enough to bring up a bad mindset that will result to losses.

This is one part of gambling that should be avoided at all costs, it's more like a quicksand you've lost control of your action I once fall into it losing almost 25k on one of the casino-based tokens in their platform, and I still fall into chasing my loss but I have full control now and only limit the amount I use for chasing my losses
It's very hard to control the urge to regain what you've lost, because of the adrenaline rush after losing your bankroll you should have a way to control it or limit your funds in case you are chasing your losses.

I never want to win back because I choose the right websites.

[digaran]

It's more like revenge sex, when your boyfriend cheats on you, then you decide to go and fuck another guy(s). This even has a category in most porn sites.🤣

However one thing I don't understand about revenge gambling🤔, are you getting back at yourself by doing this or you are just stupid thinking any kind of gambling is OK?

[BryaCull]

It's in our human nature that we always rationaliz things we do and we'll do. Take revenge gambling or simple gambling as an example, everyone believes that they high chances of losing will be far away from them and God of luck stands by their side no matter what. In contrast, we may have a car accident every time we drive out although chances are very slim but nobody believes that they will end up in an accident. The odds of winning a bet and getting a car accident might be similar and the only difference is our thinking. I guess people just make too many excuses to rationalize what they do to gain benefits while it turns out to be the opposite in many cases. Sad but true.

[bitterguy28]

never chase losses, I have been there for many times and the outcome is the same ... ALWAYS A LOSER . trust me when I say .

I guess you watched alot of porn🤣😁
I don't know if they're  getting back at themselves or the getting back at the casino but I know one thing for is that they just want to recover their losses and this doesn't  end well always.
Revenge  gambling at some points isn't done consciously or let me say intentionally as the player at the moment  might not even know they're  already chasing after their losses until they blow up their account.
