What could be the Symptoms of Getting Loss in gambling According to you?

[harizen]

Regardless of anything, gamblers get out of hand resulting in addiction because of the inability of becoming a responsible gambler.

Winning or losing doesn't have any difference as gamblers really want to gain "more and more and more" money as much as possible.

When winning, instead of taking a break, still will continue, when losing, will do anything just to bounce back. If only a gambler can think of the best possible ways after winning or losing, there might be a chance not to fall into a much worst situation.

[Strongkored]

If losing 50% of the deposit amount on our gambling has made us nervous, it actually proves that we are gamblers who chase victory, so it is not easy to accept the fact that the balance has decreased. it would be better for the player to stop playing and no longer gamble because he will later become depressed because he sees his money being lost at gambling.
When a player has focused on winning, the pressure he gets will be greater than if just playing for fun, it's not easy to be happy when we lose, but at least losing doesn't make us lose control because gambling is only for fun, not money, so when you lose, it will easily forget defeat and will not be interested in pursuing what has been lost.

I think that maybe this question might have repeated over time but still I was Saying that I have seen that when we loose almost 50% of our portfolio in loss than we get nervous and we don't know what to do. As we work hard and make our lives better but we end up loosing our money. So I think these cloud be main symptoms. And these are listed below as these are according to me.
1. First things is that we want all in all to cover our losses in just one bet.
2. We use leverage that is more than enough to blow account in matter of minutes and that is very bad.
3. We don't know what to do.
4. We get addicted to gambling and that is bad.
5. We become frustrated and some people end up loosing their lives cause they don't have any choice.

Don't recognize the symptoms but rather recognized the problem right away.

One step of making the solution is to recognized the problem, not symptoms.

We already know that users addicted to gambling because of obvious reasons. That's what we need to solve.

Strategy in winning? Are you kidding?  

If winning requires strategy, then every gambler will learn the strategy because no one like to lose money to bookmakers. A bit of luck is understatement, luck carry the higher percentage when it comes to gambling with a little bit of strategy IMO.

no, not kidding. that's disgusting.. 

the only gambling i do is poker and sports betting.

and it does requires a good strategy, like when to cut losses, make book, etc.

luck can only carry you so far but u do need it.

but so far, i don't see any "symptoms" in me.

maybe i am immune like 'ellie'.

[Pierre 2]

I feel like this totally depends on individuals. Both most common symptom is to seek covering ALL losses at couple of takes. It is very very dangerous gambler mistake. In a game where you have pretty limited chance its nearly impossible to cover your losses in such quick move. Gambling is not working it can't guarentee profits if you try hard.
On the other hand, I also think its common to observe that some gamblers have anger management issues. If a person doesn't have enough patience, should never gamble at all.

[Kakmakr]

I think you should replace the word "symtoms" with "warning signs" ....because that is what it is.

1. If you cannot stop thinking of gambling, then you are already half way down the rabbit hole.
2. If you spend money meant for other important expenses on gambling, that should raise a red flag
3. If you neglect your family and friends and spend too much time on gambling, you should start to worry.
4. If you start chasing losses and act recklessly with huge bets, then take a break.

Those are just some of the warning signs, people should look out for, when it looks like someone is having problems with gambling addiction.

By the way don't Roast me 🙂😜

Greed is something that makes many people experience losses in gambling. They lose control of themselves because they are too hasty and greedy to be able to profit from their game, even though they have already lost a lot before. Greed and lack of self-control are the main reasons why most people lose and even go bankrupt. Even if they can manage their game and their finances and can manage their emotions, I think gambling is something fun.

[Alisha-k]

The main symptom of losing gambling is when greed has taken over the minds and hearts of gamblers, so that we cannot stop gambling even though we have won, and most people do the same thing after being greedy, increasing leverage and wanting their money back, I realized when I pondered why I always lose at gambling, it turns out that what causes me to lose at gambling and continuously is that we have greed within us.
I'm sure that some of you also feel and do the same thing, especially in playing slots.

what I was about to type, we jump in on gambling because of the price tag and often times we end up not calculating our moves properly, we all have times we've lost a game or two, no doubt but when it's continuous, our strategy is questionable.

this all summon one thing and that is Addiction , though being greed and noob is the cause of everything but remember that it is our doing that will bring bad outcome in gambling.
and all of this are just a outcome of wrong decisioning , so make it best for you and only you because it is your life that will be wasted and not ours .

Going through your list it all sounds like very easy mistakes that all of us can avoid. I would put your 2.) point as the most important mistake that should be avoided, never use borrowed money when gambling. In the movies it might look nice when someone uses leverage to make a huge profit, but that isn't the real world and we are more likely to lose large sums of money than to win. Your 1,3 and 5. point  all sound very similar and can be avoided of we are using a gambling strategy. For years now I use a martingale approach to gambling that helps me a lot to know exactly how much I should be betting each round. The more we gamble the harder it is to keep track of our situation and make the right decision, a good strategy can help a lot here.

[piebeyb]

What symptom do you mean, whereas we know that people who are addicted to gambling are usually because they are never satisfied with the results of their winnings so there is no reaching a certain point to stop, it all depends on how people control themselves, gambling addiction can still be cured just the same with drug addiction, change the mindset in playing gambling slowly it will cure gambling addiction within yourself. Don't get frustrated keep trying to think positive

The most important warning sign for me is not having a gambling plan or budget. Some people don't have control over their gambling habits because they don't have restrictions or guidelines. I see people in casinos that are always attracted to people's bets. Immediately you tell them that these numbers are sure bets, even if they have exceeded their limit, they will still stake again without considering the consequences it will have on their finances. If you gamble within your limits losses will not be too painful and it will not also lead to chasing losses because you are not desperate.

I want to also add that one of the warning signs is when you borrow money because you want to use it to gamble.
Another sign is when one abandons his official duty and spends his time gambling.

[traderethereum]

I don't think recovering losses in one bet will work because we can get bigger losses too.
If it is because of gambling, we better not have too high hopes of winning a lot of money because we will have a hard time getting it.
And that can frustrate us in our pursuit of victory in gambling which is not easy.
If you play gambling, you should not really have the desire to chase victory and you should only play for fun and stop immediately after getting it.

These options vary from player to player and your discipline deternmines all of them. As a gambler when you enter a loss that you never expected, the first thing you need to do is to take a break and the timing depends on how much you lost, if you lost big, take long break and get yourself together and if its a small, take the break but it should be short time and rethink how you can make back more money and not how to make back the loss, if you do that, you will become attach to the past and that will not make you win games. Time heal us and having a break outside gambling will make you recover from losses quickly.

it is contagious.. i'd give u that, it is how i started and there is no vaccine so far.

It's funny when you put it like that.
There is no vaccine though because we believe we can hit it big if we keep playing. Aside from that, gambling is fun (I don't know if it's just me or a general feeling). We just have to know how to gamble so it doesn't become addictive. Like you said "self-control"

winning requires strategy, money management and a bit of luck.

I believe however good you are at gambling you require a certain percentage of luck to win. Some days everything just goes my way, if people see they would think I'm a guru at gambling but it was just cheer luck, nothing special. Somethings I just listen to my intuition. Don't get me wrong, strategy is a big factor but so is luck. 

[michellee]

Symptoms of getting lost in gambling? If it is a symptom of losing, I think when you have lost almost 20%-50%, that is the most obvious symptom you should pay attention to. You should get out of the casino immediately before you lose all the money and cannot recover your previous losses.

If you have lost almost 50% of your money, you should not play gambling again and don't even think about recovering losses because that will be very difficult. By experiencing a loss of almost 50%, your emotions will increase and you will forget to control yourself. It will make you even more eager to recover from losses. Do not let yourself lose self-control which can cause you to experience a total loss.

[boyptc]

1. First things is that we want all in all to cover our losses in just one bet.

And that is because we just want to have it back in the quickest possible way. It's like a mental syndrome that we can't get over until we realize that it's highly unlikely that we can recover it within a snap chance.

2. We use leverage that is more than enough to blow account in matter of minutes and that is very bad.

I'm thinking of this more with margin trading but it's just the same with #1 that we all want to have it on a single blow and get away if ever fate is with us.

3. We don't know what to do.
4. We get addicted to gambling and that is bad.
5. We become frustrated and some people end up loosing their lives cause they don't have any choice. [/b]

Jumping to the last one, this is hard to be stopped. While some are winning, there's also a huge number that vast gamblers are not just gambling with their money but also playing with their emotions.

And coming to that point that they want to recover all that they've lost, they're doing things that might be against their will but they resort to it because they think that it will be easy doing it. Selling their properties, expensive assets, jewelries, etc. and worst comes worst, ending their lives due to frustration and most likely, they can't get away with the debt and shame they've taken.

I won't be roasting you but I wish to add some more information about what you started.

Getting greedy is also one way of losing more money. When we chase our losses, we tend to over-bet because we want our money back and more. It should not be like that. Just chase the amount that was lost or another way is just bet half of what was gone. We don't really need to go all the way in one bet to add profits. 
It could be done slowly because online casinos or sports bookies are not going anywhere. We have to remember that.

[348Judah]

When you rush to gamble and after you have played to discover that you have made a mistake that couldn't be corrected, by then it would have been too late because one rush to gamble, also from experience, those that got addicted always plays not minding the risk involved with loosing their entire money because it something they are used to doing with ease not thinking about the consequences later.

[Helena Yu]

There's no symptoms of getting loss or win in gambling, it's just because of your psychology who think you can predict the future by just feeling the similar pattern about your previous gambling history. It doesn't work like that since the outcome or result isn't being manipulated or settled by the casino, it's purely of your luck. If you find something wrong about the casino, then you can report it.
