Focus on how much you may lose and not only the potential win.

[irhact]

In my experience most people go way beyond what we can safely call an optimistic attitude, since they do not even consider the possibility of failure at all, so if they think they can win at gambling they do not even think about the possibility of this not happening.

You're correct also why will you be thinking about losing when you know there's something called the power of mindset, if your mindset is always about lost, you'll lose and not win therefore to increase your chances of winning we have to be thinking positive all the time but as you're having a positive mindset, it shouldn't make you ignore the possibility that you can lose the money that you're staking therefore it shouldn't be a large amount that you can forget if you lost it.

Focusing on negative isn't good energy so I won't advice gamblers to focus on how much he might lose but he should be aware of it and do things that'll make the lost less painful. Staking only smaller amounts is a good way to reduce the amount of money you are going to lose and also not to over gamble by betting on many games. Also not chasing our losses will help reduce how much we are going to lose.

Which is why they are so hurt when they actually lose, as they cannot understand how something they wanted desperately not only did not happen, but they had to suffer the opposite outcome and they lost money instead.

We can have an optimistic attitude, but we have to realize that we cannot be too optimistic when playing gambling because gambling is full of uncertainty, so we can only use it as entertainment. But if we are optimistic in our work, it can give us the results we want, and that is different from gambling, where if we focus on recovering from losses, we will never be able to recover from those losses because it is a difficult thing. We will only experience losses from gambling and it will increase more and more.

They should learn to accept their defeat and try to end the gambling game so they don't experience more losses. Just let other people continue gambling, but we must be able to prevent other losses by always limiting our gambling activities.

A situation where the stake for the bet he won was $1k, the next statement you hear is how wish I knew I would have staked with $5k. The question is, the $5k is it an amount of money that you can be comfortable losing or it's just out of greed that you are not contented with the win amount the $1k gave you.

this is why it is called gambling. It's always not an ideal situation else it wouldn't be called gambling. People would normally want their good prediction to pay off and it's a very normal statement among most gamblers whenever they used an amount that's small to gamble and the game came out successful to always wish they staked with an higher amount of money.

The reality is that if you placed a bet with an higher amount, their is every possibility that you could win or not but every gambler is not gambling just because he is hoping to loose. People gamble because they want to win and that's the essence for such a statement when they placed a bet with a smaller amount.

[danherbias07]

I totally agree with that. And it's not just a gambler's problem, it's society's problem in this era. It's difficult to be contented with so much happening in the world.

Humans have an innate attitude of dissatisfaction with what they get and every human being will always have ambition that truly never stops, even though they have succeeded in achieving all that, there will always be desire to get bigger things.
In cases like this it will be difficult for them to have the right approach when becoming gambler because what they want is satisfaction or to be able to have better success.
We can see it in how every gambler has greedy attitude towards the winnings they have achieved, the gambler will try to get bigger win and set it as target that must be achieved.
But in the end, when the target has been achieved, they feel less satisfied and there is desire to get more, this is one of the reasons why many gamblers experience complicated problems due to gambling.

A wise and responsible gambler will know how they should make decisions without involving desires that are impossible to have, but there are only few gamblers like this.

This is true and I had been unwise just hours ago. I won a good bonus round in slots (Jade Fate of Twist Gaming) I was actually surprised because that's the first time I played that game. After that, my instincts tell me to get out because it's the planned amount where I usually withdraw. But I got curious if I was lucky in that game (in short I got greedy) so I continued playing after an hour of rest. Sadly, the ending is not what every gambler likes, it's a losing game. The bonus came just one more time but it didn't give enough to say I am back with my profits. I chased all the losses and then lose more in the process.
This is an example of an attitude of dissatisfaction and I know it when the game is over. Now, it's all regret that I feel and revenge is now clouding my mind. But, I controlled myself and never deposited one more time. I will be back to play that game but not tonight or the next day. Maybe 3 days of rest when I get a budget again.
The perk is I had fun, it surely was fun waiting for that bonus round but it's too rare, like once for every 200 rounds which could you to lose a heck of money before you get it back. It's not easy to be a wise gambler, there's always that "one more bet" that we traditionally have and it cannot be stopped.

That is the natural tendency for people to focus more on the potential for winning rather than the possibility of losing when engaging in gambling activities. ⁤⁤Many people may be more optimistic about their chances of success, which can lead to a mindset primarily focused on the potential rewards rather than the risks involved.

⁤It's understandable to be optimistic and hopeful about winning, but being mindful of the potential outcomes, including losses, can help gamblers make more informed decisions and set realistic expectations. ⁤⁤Moderation and self-control are key factors in maintaining a healthy approach to gambling. ⁤⁤Understanding that losses are a normal part of the gambling experience can help prevent impulsive behavior and excessive risk-taking. ⁤⁤It's about finding a healthy balance between optimism and realism that ensures the enjoyment of gambling in which is not overshadowed by the negative impacts of excessive risk-taking or addiction.

In my experience most people go way beyond what we can safely call an optimistic attitude, since they do not even consider the possibility of failure at all, so if they think they can win at gambling they do not even think about the possibility of this not happening.

Which is why they are so hurt when they actually lose, as they cannot understand how something they wanted desperately not only did not happen, but they had to suffer the opposite outcome and they lost money instead.

Losing is not in their mind but winning. So if when they win during their first bet, mostly it happens to double the amount thinking they could still win the next round. Being careless with our decisions will also lead to emptying our pockets and even losing more. Optimism is good in other areas but in gambling, that ain't work well as this will also be a reason why most gamblers lose their money. Knowing enough is somewhat needed in gambling and having this mindset helps us save from keeping our winning prize intact or at least we go home with it, not like we go home empty. Because we can't assume that all day we are too lucky, winning is just a bonus.

[bakasabo]

Going to online or offline casino with a mood of focusing how much I would lose right now also isnt the best attitude towards gambling. Such person already program themselves on a loss, on a fail, on a negative. This might trigger doing ridiculous bets after some time so as not to suffer and think about loosing anymore. Gambler should better focus on a process, then be distracted by thinking how much he would lose or win right now or today.

That good, but forget about whether you can get lucky second time because luck will never come according to what you expect.
When you win, exit the game and spend some money then leave the gambling site.
This will make you feel much more satisfied than thinking about going back to playing and trying your luck again which you obviously won't be able to get, you have to be smart in making decisions so you don't lose what you have got.
What more, it is slot game where it is clear that slot games are games that can only be won with luck, you also have to be able to think that if it is the first game you play, then the win is beginner win.
When deciding to come back, I would say that the thing that will definitely happen is defeat and that will definitely happen, you might think that you can win again second time but the system says no.
They have random algorithm but allow gamblers to have greater percentage of losses, if after winning spin occurs then just see that there will only be defeat after defeat waiting.
A little advice when you win game, if you still want to continue playing, you can move to another game or another provider, this will make it possible to increase your chances of winning.

[summonerrk]

There are gamblers that have a bad plan or no plan at all about their life, they gamble with whatever amount they have rather than what they can afford to lose that won't be a worry to them if lost. There's this thought that am sure almost every gambler that have won a bet before must have had. which is the thought of "had I knew this game was going to win  I would have used bigger amount of money to wager".

Everyone is talking about a good money manager, and it really needs to be respected. But how many people really adhere to this rule: spend only the amount on bets or investments, the loss of which will not affect their daily needs. But I think that every person has a thought in their head: "what if I put everything I have now? after all, I can win a lot of money." This is greed and excitement, and of course you can't go along with this desire.

A situation where the stake for the bet he won was $1k, the next statement you hear is how wish I knew I would have staked with $5k. The question is, the $5k is it an amount of money that you can be comfortable losing or it's just out of greed that you are not contented with the win amount the $1k gave you.

The fact that you won  using $1k today doesn't give assurance that if you had used higher amount or that your next bet that you probably increased the wager in order to win a bigger amount will play. As gamblers let not focus all attention on the amount that we may by chance of luck win but on what we are to lose should we fail to win the bet, in that way we won't spend on gambling above what we can afford to lose.
Stay in check!

[Fivestar4everMVP]

Op is completely right, I myself could remember many a time when I usually-- instead of being happy I won a bet, I become regretful rather, simply because what or the amount I staked on the game was small, I start wishing that I had staked a higher amount.
Meanwhile, when I stake a very small amount of money and lose the bet, I am always happy because the amount of money I staked on the game was small, so, I didnt lose much.

What I actually have to say is that, greed is something or an emotion that is natural in every man, we individually learn to surpress our greed, by not allowing it to over shadow us and bi-cloud our sense of reasoning.
It is always very important for us to always endeavor to play gambling with the amount of money we can comfortably lose, this is to avoid getting ourselves into unnecessary financial issues.

[summonerrk]

Indeed, there is a large percentage of people among the players who do not understand what to strive for in life at all, and this is very strange! When such people are asked: "what will you do with a big win if you get lucky in gambling?"
 These guys don't know what to answer. And I absolutely do not understand how you can treat your life like this - to be like a boat that is being carried by the ocean. You need to have specific goals and a specific plan in life. And if someone plays without a goal, then he will not be able to come to any result.

The best approach for gambling is that you shouldnt really be stressing out yourself on being a winner or someone who would really be able to make those kind of positive expectations towards
gambling on which if you are really that too optimistic towards it then you would really be just that simply putting up yourself on such potential problem. We do know that when it comes to gambling
then luck would be then its something that you should really be just that playing for fun and its not something that you would really be that making yourself way too hopeful.
Once you do find yourself on being that optimistic then for sure you would really be that making yourself pushing your limit into that certain extent.

Give up and concede? Yes, but why not take it a step farther and stay off the battlefield entirely? We are here to shape our futures via conscious activity, not to dance with fate. Making decisions that don't jeopardize our future is key.

We agree that optimism is necessary, even in gambling. It's just that, one must know the limits so as not to make something that becomes a blunder. optimism is good, at least to raise our self-confidence. especially, if we bet on sports betting. without optimism, doubt will only make us often lose direction in assessment, research, analysis and choosing bets. referring to one of the points you said, I agree that if we chase losses it will only bring other problems. for example, our emotions are uncontrollable and result in feelings of anger to always target winning to recover losses. however, it doesn't always have to be that specific. there are also some gamblers, who are lucky to recover their luck and even get fantastic wins. so, as you said, gambling is full of uncertainty. however, that uncertainty does not always result in something bad. well, this is what is unique about gambling. where we cannot predict with certainty every gambling session, even if someone has the knowledge resources related to gambling that someone is good at. this is easy to say, but difficult in practice. why, yeah, because it involves feelings, emotions and desires, apart from the idea of ​​entertainment and having fun.

Focusing on negative isn't good energy so I won't advice gamblers to focus on how much he might lose but he should be aware of it and do things that'll make the lost less painful. Staking only smaller amounts is a good way to reduce the amount of money you are going to lose and also not to over gamble by betting on many games. Also not chasing our losses will help reduce how much we are going to lose.

Losing is a certain thing, and winning is something we look for and want in gambling. the point is, it is very important for both beginners and seasoned gamblers to be aware of the risks of gambling.

I really agree with your gambling thoughts. Gambling is entertainment, not a source of revenue. Too often, people get caught up in great successes and end themselves chasing losses. Gambling should be a hobby, I've learned. Limit yourself. I constantly advise friends to gamble within their means. Instead of a frantic quest of winning, this perspective makes the encounter joyful. The odds are usually against us. Understanding that the house always has an edge can avert many heartaches

Gamble for fun and socializing, but set reasonable goals. Since it's a game of chance, stop playing when it gets boring

Not gambling is indeed a successful strategy so that people don't lose any money and can use their money for other things, including their daily needs. This will make it easier for them to manage their money well and meet all their needs because if they use their money to gamble, it is feared that they could experience even more losses, especially if they cannot control themselves well.

By not gambling, we have avoided the possibility of losing from gambling and can also save money for other things. Moreover, there is uncertainty about when we can win the gambling game, so if we don't gamble, we will be saved from losing the money. And yes, channeling optimism into work makes it more likely for us to work well and earn income.

This is one of the best approaches in gambling because by having this approach we will be able to set limits that are truly in accordance with what every gambler should do so that in the future we can minimize quite disappointing failures.
Approach I have now is to be able to make gambling just place to have fun by accepting all the results even if it means losing money and being able to control myself over every result that occurs, whether it win or loss, everything will be pleasant thing.
Sometimes people out there have too much ambition and desire in gambling, they are even too optimistic about some achievements which are not easy to get, they can get them but they don't necessarily match existing expectations.
After all, this is gambling where the only thing that is guaranteed to be successful is the casino or provider, so we as gamblers must be able to be aware of all this so that we can think carefully about what we should do in the future.
With this understanding, we can avoid unreasonable thought patterns such as enriching ourselves, trying to get the jackpot and we will be able to have good limits and self-control because we really understand how gambling actually works.

They should learn to accept their defeat and try to end the gambling game so they don't experience more losses. Just let other people continue gambling, but we must be able to prevent other losses by always limiting our gambling activities.

This can only happen if a gambler gambles with a budget and never goes beyond it, and for that to happen, one needs to be disciplined and have a responsible nature because you might lose the budget that you have allocated for a week or a month in a single day sometimes, that is also irresponsible though, and then if you try and recover your losses, you will probably lose way more than what you had initially allocated as your gambling budget.

So, if a person has a budget and strictly sticks to it, they will never chase their losses and they will stop right after they have exhausted their gambling bankroll. If one gambles without a budget, they will most likely chase their losses and make more deposits after losing the initial balance.

I used to be that person but the emotions of the game and the rage can make you go much further than predicted and can make one in a single moment of weakness go havoc and lose much more than he conserved while being a conservative and sticking to it.I should not talk as it is the first day for me that I am not opening a single casino in my browser and dealing with other things.One day is nothing but it shows that I want to stay away from gambling and most likely this time I will fully realize it because I have lost so much in slots that coming back to them again is pure nonsense.

[the rise]

when we feel that we don't get a lot of wins, that's greed, and thinking like that will also make us lose more money because wanting to get a big win requires a lot of capital too, it's best not to focus too much on winning, gamble instead. we can eliminate it without forcing the situation

[Crypt0Gore]

Honestly, if all gamblers focus on how much they may lose they will all be a responsible gambler, many cares only about how much they may win, which is the main thing backing their desires up, they want all the wins by force, they are willing to risk it all in gambling as if they are not going to win a lot as well.

If gambling is that easy every gambler will be rich right now, some even knew how hard it is to win in gambling, yet they will still choose to risk a lot on gambling, this is why I don't feel pity for any gamblers that get rekt.

They know about the risks, they saw it coming, and they are paying for the price, it's normal, but I wonder why they feel sad later, or why they get angry, you understand what gambling means, why risk what you can't afford.
