Chasing looses Vs Finding closure: Any difference?

[EarnOnVictor]

If you gamble and you lose, best not to gamble at that time again, because it can bring you more losses. You want to close the losses by winning little or you want to win all back can take more money from you. Gamble responsibly.

Forget about the loss, do not gamble again for that time, have good quality mindset back before gambling. Do not count what you lose as losses, use little amount you can afford to lose to gamble.

This is not what the OP is asking. Since it's an informal post, the author wasn't professional in it as there is no word "closure" in professional gambling, such might have meant a closing line. This is the almost-starting line of a new game, meaning that the author refers to concluding a bet pretty fast for him to start another one.

And this might be a good strategy for those that have tested and trusted it as better than tarrying much in some sort of bets.

I really need a clarification on this. Is chasing looses in gambling same as looking for closure because i recently read an article on reddit where the poster said that he will gamble untill he wins just to look for closure. I have been thinking about this for sometime now because closure has the same characteristics with chasing looses which is even when the gambler is loosing he will still be gambling just to recover all his looses.

Finding closure is like pursuing a happy ending after an unlucky gambling session. In order to have this happy ending gamblers keep chasing losses. Some gamblers fail to understand that it is not all every gambling period that  lead to wins. We must always accept the fact that some unlucky days leads to losses and we must work away after we have reached out gambling limit. Finding closure is like playing your last game after a bad gambling day. The outcome might be a win or a loss but regardless of the outcome the gambler will always decide to go. A win gives the gambler something to smile at, while a loss adds to the pains of the gambler.

No.

What the OP was asking is that if he is losing already, that can he still continue to gamble so that if he wins to certain level that he should then quit gambling for that time.

Let me quote the OP:

OP got the information from a post on Reddit. Let me quote it too:

Should I gamble until I win so that I can have a good closure?
I know that one session of winning won’t make up all the losses,but should I just win back a little and quit so I can have a good closure? What do you say?

Both posts are talking about a punter to continue to gamble more after losses. What is usually done by unprofessional punters and that is the time they can lose all their money.

To me everything amount to a chase in uncertainties because you can't predict what the outcome of what you're after may bring, if you think chasing after losses recovery will help you bring back the losses made by continuous attempts may bring nothing than a grid luck, the two as you have asked are different but it depends on the way the gambler apply it in his own situation, don't always believe that everything you read on the internet is always true.

[Strongkored]

Chasing defeat is quite impossible it will only add to the pressure and make the player even more stressed and can make him play without control. Playing normally is better than accepting every defeat and also responding to every win you get without having to be overly happy because in gambling it is possible to lose and it is also not impossible to win, it's just that often gambling ends up being a detrimental activity because players think can make money with only have small capital and are unable to stop even though they know that when they continue gambling it will not be good because they have experienced big losses, so stop when don't produce good results many times and forget about all the money that has been lost because of losing rather than chasing defeat.

Depends on what he plays. This happens most of the time at casino games. But when you are playing sports betting and just observing one game then there's always an end to it within the day. Like for example basketball.
There's no such thing as a whole day basketball because somehow the players would need some rest. So do the gambler, he will need to wait for when the league or match will start again. Will he chase losses on that next bet on the next day? Maybe? If he is jotting down all the money that he gambles.
At the end of the day, it will all rely on how disciplined you are at staying within one budget, and even at losses you will bet the same and not be greedy about doubling it just to cover the losses on the past bets.

Well, I think it's just an excuse to continue what he used to. If you want closure do you have to win to recover your losses? (Remember that it would be hard also to stop if you already win huge since you might think you need to play again since you're lucky). What if you didn't manage to win according to plan, that means you'll continue until it happened?

There's no need for a closure, if you want to stop then stop. Don't give excuses because it just shows you really can't or you don't want to.

No need for anything but just to follow what you need to do, stopping is the key in order not to suffer for more losses, if you continue to play in aiming that you need to win first before you will stop then the risk of getting more addicted can happen. Same with what you said, what if you keep winning while enjoying the game, instead of quitting while you still have that chance to recover your losses but decide to push for more wins, the outcome will be the same.

The chance to lose back all those winning money is not impossible, then what will you do next? try to play and wait again for another chance?

I don't see it that way, stop and move forward nothing more.

Yeah, most likely, but there are still other games that he can beat on after the season with basketball ends. Maybe he is also a fan of football or any other sports betting that it's going to be a year round bets for most of us.

And he could still be addicted to casino games like Slots wherein we always going to lose our money on it unless we really get lucky that night playing it. So there is no closure for this kind of gamblers, they will come back and chase those losses in my opinion.

[Kemarit]

I think in the back of our minds, regardless if it is sports betting or any other kind of games, we always look for get back at those loses, in short we love to chase it no matter what. The problem is that in game of luck, it's hard to do that, or at least to get break even once you start because of the house edge, the RTP and your luck. So the moment you go for a spin and lose, then there's no closure as you are going to continue to play until that capital is zero. Then rinse and repeat, you deposit and find excuses rinse and repeat. Until such time that you become addicted, so this is a very common problems with us gamblers.

Chasing looses is natural and normal, even a normal gambler (non addicted one) thinks the same when they lose some money. What makes them difference is about how they deal with it and how they try to do it. Chasing looses should be under control because there is a bigger chance to lose more while chasing loses and anyone should be ready for it. If the one who write it in reddit did not realize that he may lose more and more, he will never get good time for closure.

[crzy]

Finding for a closure is also a way of chasing your losses because you keep on playing for a hope that you can have a win before you stop playing. This might result to another loss and you’ll just lose the chance to cut your losses. Chasing seems to be a normal reaction of every gambler, and you can only avoid this if you are a discipline gambler, better to know your limit and always commit on that.

Closure does actually have the same idea or concept about chasing losses because you are trying to look with that break even scenario or situation on which you would tend to stop when you are already
into a situation on which you are already able to patch up those losses of yours which we know that in gambling which it cant really be just that simple or easy because we know that gambling is never been easy
and something risky if we do speak about odds and chances.This is why its never been good on having this kind of behavior or mindset towards it.
Never ever chase losses and just play for fun and dont go into a certain extent.

[Finestream]

I don’t know that gambling has its own closure too. Because for me, the only time you’ll make a closure from gambling is when you finally decide to leave gambling for good. But if you are saying to chase bigger profits or to recover your previous losses, that is allowing yourself to lose more. If you really want to put an end to gambling, stop gambling and stay away from activities that will develop your interest in gambling again.

[Kasabus]

Apparently, if one gambler will keep on chasing his losses, he is not making a closure on it, instead he is gambling to lose more. That is the reality in gambling, the more you gamble, the higher chances you lose more. Although gambling is not all about losing, as some still find luck and gain huge profits, but in most cases, people gamble and gradually see themselves losing in the end. That’s why it’s still best to gamble responsibly, and gamble only an amount you can afford to lose.

It will be based on your own approach once you are there in the situation. For some people, it's easy to say that once they win huge like the amount involved is really decent, they will stop gambling now and use that money for better. The moment they now experience winning huge money, the original plan will be forgotten and they will continue to gamble more since in their mind, why stop if they are lucky?

You won't find any clarification here based on several responses since again, our approach will depend once we are now in the actual situation.

If you will stop or not once you win big, it's up to you to continue based on how far you can tolerate your temptation to gamble more.

It is never advisable for a gambler to continue chasing his losses because he can lose more. Rather than chasing his losses, he would rather stop gambling so he would not lose any more money and could reduce his emotions from the loss. Getting lucky is something that gamblers really look forward to but unfortunately, not many can get that luck, while other people can only get defeated. Yes, I agree to gamble responsibly so that we control how much money to gamble and how long we can gamble. That will protect all the money we deposit so that it doesn't run out on the same day we deposit the money.

I always consider that being thirsty for money is good motivator, okay, but its never good for health. If gambler solely focuses on his/her losses and covering them up, he will definitely keep losing more. I agree with you, you increase your chances to lose more. I understand people hate idea of losing money. Its definitely something very hurtful to your mentality as you sit on chair to win money. But people with better confidence should drive to closure.

[Helena Yu]

There's no difference, most people finding closure when they're hit a big multipliers, casing looses is also similar where they're looking to hit a big multipliers that will help them to earn profit. It's better to setup a betting time e.g. a hour or two hours, after you've gamble for a hour or two hours, you need to stop to gamble regardless the result of your last bet. If you're not do this, you're not discipline about your gambling habit.

Not many gamblers want to stop after experiencing defeat, but all existing gamblers will continue to bet until their money runs out or their losses return.
But what happened was not a loss that could be recovered but a deeper loss.
There are many stories of gamblers experiencing ruin due to playing according to passion and emotion but unfortunately many gamblers ignore experiences like this and don't believe in them.
When gamblers see that there is a big chance of winning in front of them they cannot control themselves or finances so that there can be certain limits, so this is the biggest problem for gamblers

Exactly. Chasing losses are not the real way to have a closure because we're the one controlling ourselves and there's no need for such condition. Because you're just giving yourself a reason to continue playing for the thinking you need to accomplish this first (winning huge) before you'll quit.

Moreover, trying to recover your losses can only increase the amount that you already lost in gambling. Lucky if you win, but what if the worst happened. Can you bear seeing more losses just because you have to win first before stopping? I don't think so.
