Do you keep a record of winnings and losses in gambling?

[tusandii]

Yes, actually there are many more bad impacts when we calculate our losses in gambling and what often happens is as you said and several other impacts, perhaps like what I experienced, when one day I saw the total losses during the time I had been gambling, I became imaginative and thought if only that money I don't use it for gambling, maybe I can buy a house with several vehicles and in the end I regret myself as you said and this regret is when someone has low thoughts, usually they can't control themselves, instead they seem to want revenge, taking the loss and the biggest impact this is bad for me.

It seems that you are experiencing high losses in gambling, but you choose to ignore the losses because you want to avoid the impact of depression and avoid anger to recover losses from gambling with revenge. Actually I calculate losses from all gambling history, but I am not a gambling addict and rarely gamble so I only have small losses, I can recover gambling losses from other income including from trading activities and other work, I also determine the limit of losses from gambling, if I experienced high losses so I decided to stop gambling or only gamble one bet per month for sports and wrestling bets.

I don't want to remember it anymore, looking at total losses or total wins will only waste time and mislead myself and I am very sure that everyone will experience the same thing, even if only for a moment and even if the amount is only small, but if the losses exceed the profits, the feeling of regret will always be there. There if I appreciate your enthusiasm by betting small amounts even though you always calculate your total losses but your efforts to recover losses in other ways are very wise and it is very rare for a gambler to have wise thinking like you and maybe this method can be imitated by other gamblers because there are no the harm in recovering losses in the way you did rather than recovering by gambling again is very risky because emotions will definitely have a bad impact.

This would be the wrong thing to do for me,  because it will just cause you more stress when you have come to notice that your loses are freaking more than your actual winning and it will just break you physically, emotional and mentally. Keeping track of your loses and winning is something that is not advisable for anyone because I believe no one has ever gotten advantage over the house before and by this I mean every gambler loses are more than his winnings.

We have our winning and losing days, we just stay put and ready our mind for the very best events to happen in our lives. Everyday comes with a whole different opportunity, we either missed out or grab them with full potential of earning extensively from the system. What's the essence of keeping our records in gambling? It will only lead to heartbreak of witnessing unexpected results. It will only bring back terrible memories of the past, so I would advised anyone close to me that's in the space to quit gambling and focus more on exploring prominent opportunities in the system.

In any even how close to science article about gambling says that in the long run the casino or gambling house has an advantage over the player, so it really does not matter whether or not you keep statistics, all the same from this little change. Of course in gambling as in many other areas there are errors and randomness, so a small percentage of gamblers will be on the plus side, but most will still be in the minus. I believe that the frustration brings not statistics, but the moment of loss. But we still continue to gamble, because the moment of winning for many is incomparable.   

For a gambler, statistics may not have much influence because they still want to continue gambling. Maybe having a record will be good for someone who wants to limit their gambling, but it can also make them stressed because they see that their losing numbers will be greater than their winning numbers. It would influence his subconscious to try to recover from his defeat even though he knew it would be difficult. But the house will get its biggest winnings from losing gamblers, so if we don't want to be on the list of losing gamblers, we have to really tighten our limits in gambling. Most gamblers will be on the negative side and treated so that this can trigger them to continue gambling and ultimately increase their losses even bigger.

[Hewlet]

Do you keep a record of winnings and losses in gambling? Many here will feel that this is waste of time and will also not let them enjoy the game peacefully. Do you also have same mentality?

ideally, it might sound reasonable to keep such record and review it on a weekly or monthly bases but in in real life, I doubt most people will even want to do that.
But I feel that this will go a very long way in ensuring responsible gambling as you can just go through your gambling history to check of you are being addicted to gambling or not. And yes, it will take away the fun aspect of gambling because for those that just gamble for the sake of fun, it will make them look like they are working because of the seriousness in taking audit of every game played as well as those lost or won

It could work like that for some compulsive gamblers but not for most people fortunately. Studies show that the pain of losing money at gambling games is greater than the joy to win money for most people. Statistics of deposits from casino customers show the same thing, after few deposits without cashout they give up. That's why casinos offer bonuses and promotions in order to keep them. People generally feel bad when they lose so if they are more conscious of their losses they are more likely to stop playing or to limit it at least.

If you are really just doing gambling just for the sake of fun then you wont really be hassling yourself on having some record or trying to check out whether you are negative or positive and this is how things should really be done.Somewhat people are different when it comes to their approaches on things on which some would really be that mindful on checking out those numbers on which they've been trying out to pretend that it is really just that fine or forms of trying out to control their gambling spending on which it isnt really that bad either. There really just that people who are really that
who are really that trying out to be that too loves on involving into something even on the slightest thing to be done by a certain individual. There's nothing wrong on having a record because if you do find out yourself to be having this kind of behavior for you to have in control or everything should really be in checks then it is still a considerable approach.

For me then i dont really care on what are thos numbers because on the time that i do gamble, then i do usually deposit on the amount which is really just that intended for the sake of fun.
Doesnt matter whether it would really be a win or lose in the end as long im on that moderation then i dont see any issues about this. I can play all the time i want
without worrying on getting wrecked because of losing control.

Your points are absolutely valid mate. I believe that gambling as an engagement that involves money should always always be checked by people who engage in it in other not to continue losing their money and one of the ways to know if one is gaining or losing in gambling is by keeping records of winnings as well as their losses.
When the record is kept and later reviewed, it'll help the gambler to determine if he's making profits from gambling and continue with his gambling or making losing money and stop gambling or probably change strategy

with that we can manage our finances well and by looking at our gambling record history we can review whether our activities exceed the limits or not, in fact this is very important for gamblers who have the principle of always applying their limits in gambling by looking at this history a gambler can stop easily without having to chase their losses, because sometimes gamblers who don't look at their spending activities will easily gamble without limits. This will have a detrimental impact because gambling must be used with limits if we don't want to experience significant losses.

[redsun114]

I don't want to remember it anymore, looking at total losses or total wins will only waste time and mislead myself and I am very sure that everyone will experience the same thing,

I believe every gambler will have a different view regarding this. A lot of people would prefer to keep their statistics related to their gambling activities just so that they can evaluate the time and money they've been spending on gambling and if needed, maybe make necessary changes. Also, I believe that a person who gambles just for fun already has a set limit for their time and budget for gambling and they don't cross those limits no matter what happens.

Only gamblers who gamble to earn money mostly keep statistics just to make sure that they have a record for every session about how much they have used, how much has been lost, and how much they have managed to win because they are gambling for money in the first place and they need to keep a count.

Yes, because some gamblers do want to evaluate the status of their game. Looking for the possibility of having to change with their current strategy or their way of playing. But some gamblers can't wait to see they see the record of their games. It might be stressful for them or just a hassle to keep on track.

I guess that's true. Some might also be keeping a record to know how much money they have lost and how much money they have to take back.

[dansus021]

What's the use of keeping track of the losses in gambling as it will only add to the tension when you keep on counting your losses and profits and losses always amounting on a higher side? That is the main reason I would avoid counting my wins and losses and try to forget the loses in order to remain stress free.

Even if you have allocated a certain amount for gambling, and you know that you cannot lose more than that, even then a loss will make you sad, and later counting it again and again will have a bad effect on your emotions.

Yes, actually there are many more bad impacts when we calculate our losses in gambling and what often happens is as you said and several other impacts, perhaps like what I experienced, when one day I saw the total losses during the time I had been gambling, I became imaginative and thought if only that money I don't use it for gambling, maybe I can buy a house with several vehicles and in the end I regret myself as you said and this regret is when someone has low thoughts, usually they can't control themselves, instead they seem to want revenge, taking the loss and the biggest impact this is bad for me.

The gambling companies keep track of win of losses on some site so I dont record it just open the analytics and the gambling companies use this as a tool to decide who win and who lose hahaha.

Initially do gamble just for fun and with the strict budget and you will worry free.

Yes, every gambler has different thoughts and even keeps statistics on their losses or wins just to show off to other people and I have a friend who is like that, it very ridiculous.

I agree with your opinion, gambler who thinks about money or more precisely gambles on sports betting or whatever just for the sake of winning to earn income. They always consider the plan from the statistical results to reduce or add to the number of limits they make to get the target that has been set plan but I'm worried that something like this could make the gambler unconsciously chase his losses and this will be very bad when after seeing the results of his loss record he feels emotional and increases the number of bets with a larger value.

I use to remember back in those days when our parents use to archive things for a long period and after the rediscovery of what they have hidden for long, we will all be thrown into amazement for seing such information or record still in existence after a very long time, keeping a record is good in serving a remembrance thing for us to mark on a certain occassion about a particular thing and i want to believe none of us would wanted to have all the bad records of losses too in our archives for records purpose.

An addicted gambler never accepts the fact that they are addicted and they wish it to be that way. The day they accept that they are addicted and put in the self-control, they will be able to improve. Keeping track of wins and losses over time means doing this anyway and hence they rarely do this.

However professional players like in poker, sports betting, you will often find people doing this. Even in trading this is common and although it helps keep track how much it helps in making money, I have my doubts.

It takes the "fun" out of the gambling and hence not common among gamblers to do.

Everyone manages their gambling differently. Personal style and coping strategies are key, right? For some, meticulous win-loss records are essential. Why? Because its not just about the thrill of the game; its about being strategic, especially for those who see gambling as a source of income. Then there are people who play just for fun and set strict limits on their time and money. They keep to their limits no matter what. Like an internal alarm clock that says "Time's up!" or a wallet that closes when the budget's reached. Can tracking make gambling a science rather than a hobby? Maybe, but everyone copes differently, right? Some evaluate their reality using statistics to avoid bad tendencies. Some ride the excitement with a safety net.

[Promocodeudo]

How will someone keep a record of such events, it sounds strange, how many of those records can you keep, gambling is naturally a game of winning and losing, when you lose in gambling just see that at this point you weren't meant to win, don't always believe in strategy because it doesn't work in gambling, I see winning in gambling something that is meant to take place in its own time, so keeping a record of how many loses you have incurred as gambling won't help you, but it makes you careful of odds and this might make you lose more if care is not taken, I can speak for myself only, I don't keep record of the aforementioned, I only do my best to win and I do this with little stake and possible good outcome selection.

My strategy was different one,I had a record my loss in the spread sheet for every one week and on every Sunday.It help me to understand the correct amount of loss or gain per week in the gambling sites.But the same was calculated to the monthly basis and fixed my next month profit to the gambling site.Every month profit money was based on the two things,one is based on the loss in the gambling site on the previous month.The second was the money I had loss for the period of six months of the gambling in that particular gambling sites.The bad records will help me to fix the target of the profit on my next gambling for the next week in the gambling sites.

Such is a nice strategy for keeping your gambling records. I prefer to keep records of my performance as well because this would guide me through the strategies used in winning for which I have recorded. I think when it comes to improvement, this option of records keeping would improve your chances of better game strategy to winning than just the normal regular games and things.
To be honest, keeping records aids alot for one to know how far they have achieved their goals as a gambler and what they would need to do or develop to aid them while gambling or if possible to minimise the rate at which they gamble if it is excessively done.

Personally, I don't record winnings and losses. But I watch it on the gambling websites or apps I play. I even watch it hourly and weekly. I always remember the amount of money I deposited to play and the rewards I withdrew. Even though I don't write it down, I always remember clearly how much I spent and how much I earned when gambling. Because currently, I see gambling as a game to earn some spending money for my purposes. Luckily, I made a little money from gambling. It's not much. Because I am very cautious in investing, especially gambling, I do not dare to risk winning big.

The suffering in gambling is greater than the joy because joy will only come to those who succeed in winning the gambling game, while there are still more people who experience losses in gambling. This should make people realize that no matter how much money they spend on gambling, it will not guarantee that they will win. Deposit and withdrawal statistics from a customer can help gamblers see the amount of money that has been used so that they should be able to realize what benefits gambling has for them. If they experience losses more often than they win, they should start to reduce their gambling activities and prefer to stop gambling rather than continue gambling.

If you are really just doing gambling just for the sake of fun then you wont really be hassling yourself on having some record or trying to check out whether you are negative or positive and this is how things should really be done.Somewhat people are different when it comes to their approaches on things on which some would really be that mindful on checking out those numbers on which they've been trying out to pretend that it is really just that fine or forms of trying out to control their gambling spending on which it isnt really that bad either.

Yes, that's true because having fun means we can lose some money without expecting to win from gambling, especially since we know that gambling is just for fun. We will not focus on making money but only on the gambling game and enjoying the time playing gambling. Apart from that, we also won't spend more money, especially if we lose because it is normal to lose in gambling, so we have to be able to accept it. People who gamble for fun can accept the amount of their losses and can control themselves so as not to experience big losses. They don't want to lose control of themselves and will definitely stop when they have had enough gambling.

Yes, I am also like you, where I only deposit as much money as I can afford to gamble. I don't spend all the money that day but will leave a little money to save for another day when I want to gamble again. It really helped me to reduce the number of deposits many times, especially with the current increase in transaction fees, which can be worrying. That is why we must be able to maintain self-control to be able to accompany us while we gamble so that we can control our gambling activities and not lose a lot of money.
