When I'm emotional, I LOSS!

[bitgolden]

If someone says that he can control his emotions in gambling then he is wrong because gambling is totally based on emotions and people are gambling just because of his emotions which force him to start gambling. If someone loses in gambling then due to his emotions he desires to recover that money but when someone wins then these emotions start to force him to play more to win more.

Nobody can control his emotions but if someone accepts the fact that win and loss are unpredictable and apply these strategies then they can overcome the chances of their loss. One should not use so much money that he becomes unable to recover it back and with the desire of recovering he loses another percentage of money too. If you lose your money then forget about it and don't try to chase your loss because it sometimes becomes dangerous and a gambler often loses more money as a result of chasing their loss.

Yes right, we could have our emotions and that's fine, but we need to realize that we are going to end up with a much better result if we want to, and we need to keep working harder. I do understand that we are not going to be all that happy about losing of course, but we need to just realize that it is going to end up with getting much better result eventually.

I hope that we could just consider losses are quite normal and not something that will get bigger in the end. I hope that things could get slower and just people could realize it is not end of the world to lose. The biggest problem is that when someone loses, there are some people who chase that loss and lose even more, people should not do that at all, it's very bad.

Hey, guys! Are any of you emotional gamblers who often lose because you can't control what you feel? When you lose, do you tend to double your bets or chase your losses, driven by a pride that can't accept defeat? Do you consider this a problem? If so, has anyone here been able to solve this kind of problem themselves, and if yes, how did you do it?

I have this problem, and based on my personal experience, I find that sometimes I get challenged but not too greedy because I don't have a problem quitting when I'm winning. However, when I'm losing, that's where my struggle lies.

That's why I shared it here; I feel that some of you may experience the same challenges, and I'd love to hear your ideas or experiences on how to win this battle so we can enjoy gambling.

You are not alone in this, most gamblers are also struggling with this, it's hurts when you lose especially when you worked hard to get that money, it almost feels like your setting those money on fire or throwing it out of the window..But you took the risk that's why it's a gamble, when you start feeling emotional due to losses try as much as possible to quit for that day or for a long time, because decisions made under the influence of emotions are most likely irrational, you would forget about everything else except chasing what you have lost till everything you've worked hard to get is gone..self control is key

Those who feel pain when they lose or are struggling with this because they see gambling as a place to get rich quickly, not a place for entertainment. I believe that if you use the money you are willing to lose to gamble, you will never fall into that situation. But the sad thing is that not too many people consider gambling as entertainment, most people always want to win and make money, so it will be very difficult to escape that vicious cycle until they lose all their money.

Self-control seems very easy, but doing it is not easy. Once we lose money, we will forget all our previous plans and our minds only hope to get that money back. That's why I suggest that we should only use the money we can lose to gamble instead of thinking that we will control ourselves when the game has started.

If we still playing gambling while we know that we can't enjoy the gambling games, that will gives us a depress because of the losing of the money. We will not feels satisfying from playing gambling especially when we lose and that can attract us to spends more money.

If you can control your emotion and know that gambling is just part of your life and you don't need to use it too often, you will not spends your spare time to playing gambling instead will use other things to enjoy your time. It's normal if you becomes emotionally if you lose your money in gambling but you can prevents the lose not becomes bigger by always limiting your money that you use for playing gambling. You must become wise to use your money to playing gambling so your sadness will not be big when you see your losses.

If you lost when you're emotional it's pretty normal. Everyone is already aware of that and it applies to any plaer.

...
6° NEVER play (to win) if you are: Tired, stressed, bored, angry etc etc..... There is a strong effect come from the morale of better....
...

I think that more people should read and understand my "betting advices" and maybe take a read of my history in this field
Probably most of newcomers could get an insight in this world and understand how to manage several aspects to improve winnin chances

Thanks for mentioning it, I will definitely take a look when I will have some free time!
That's so true, as with negative emotions piling up, it's harder to make the right decisions. You do everything out of spite or out of the negative emotion that takes control of you, so you should always play when your inner self is ready for it (that is, to win!).

This is why it is important that we only deposit the money we may want to use during that session and nothing more, and if a person wants to go even further than that, then they need to make access to their coins not as immediate as just opening their wallet and make a transaction.

Because in this way a person can take a few minutes to think about what they are doing, and very often this is more than enough to recognize the mistake they are making and avoid making another deposit that could make them to lose even more money.

This is why it would really be that important that you should really be that making use of the amount on which that you can afford to lose or something which is really that intended for buying up needs or your priorities in life, because on the time or moment that you do have this kind of consideration or making out such act then you would really be that impulsive on the time or moment that you would be able to encounter loses.
On the moment thatyou would really be dealing up with gambling then only spend on which the amount you can afford to lose so that on the moment that you do lose then you wont be finding yourself to be that impulsive.
On the time that your emotion and your mind is really that being stressed then you will really be making up decisions on which it shouldnt really be supposed to be done on this way.

Emotional or not, winning chance isnt something that a guaranteed thing. The only difference on here is that on the time or moment that you do play gambling with having that entertainment and leisure seeking
concern then you wont really be that much worry about on the results on which your game could give or happen.

I noticed this thing in myself: when I worked for a small salary in a hard job, I really wanted to place bets. This is probably because I wanted to win a big win and forget about this work forever, because other than the thought of getting up in the morning and staying there until late, I had no idea. This gave rise to internal anger in me and increased excitement; I wanted to change everything, but did not know how to do it. So, my biggest losses were at that time, because I saw no other way out and tried to make money on gambling, but as we know it is very difficult. But the main thing here is that after I changed my job for a better one, I stopped feeling angry and went to play without emotions, and in the end I realized that I needed gambling for entertainment, and not for making money. Now I play completely without emotion, the very philosophy of my attitude towards the game has changed.

In general, I want to say sometimes you need to figure out your life, work and other things, and this will completely change our attitude towards the game.

Emotion is something that's intertwined with gambling and no matter how hard we tried to eradicate it in one way or another it will certainly be there, so emotion is a normal thing, though the only people who can hardly get affected by there emotions are those who has money because even if they lose while gambling they would always have things that can easily replace that money but for those that labour so hard to make that money will highly be very emotional, so actually I like your advice on this case because in as much the gamblers intentions is to make money but the moment they realized that there loses are much they can just take a break for a while before coming back.

Playing gambling must use limitation so we can manage how much lost money that we can afford to lose in gambling. We will not playing gambling excessively because that can makes us lose more and more money especially if we chase the wins. We must remember that our money will not have to use for playing gambling but we must use that money for fills our daily life. That's why we must balance our money for many things in our life so we don't have to spends that money for playing gambling.

Winning in gambling is difficult because that will depends on our luck as we don't know when our luck will comes. If we still push ourselves to keeps playing gambling, that can makes us lose more money which is not recommended to do.  We must control ourselves especially our minds so we don't have to follow what our minds say.

I noticed this thing in myself: when I worked for a small salary in a hard job, I really wanted to place bets. This is probably because I wanted to win a big win and forget about this work forever, because other than the thought of getting up in the morning and staying there until late, I had no idea.

That's normal to have that because that's happens to many people who see gambling can gives them the money if they wins. But they must realizes that gambling is not a place to make money and only playing gambling normally without using too much money. If our salary is small, we have a choice not to playing gambling or we can playing gambling but with limit money so we don't have to lose a lot.

That's why we must learns to have good control in gambling so we don't have to becomes emotional when playing gambling. We will knows how to manage our emotion because that will helps us to prevents the big lose. We have our life and we must take care of it and not waste our money for just playing gambling because we have other things that needs money. We must treat gambling as an entertainment.

Hello bro, it's a everyday thing that occurs mostly among gamblers, and you aren't the only one experiencing such, so stop feeling sorry for yourself if you are doing such, you know that we as individuals, if we can stick to the purpose of gambling, we wouldn't be emotional, and saying this because gambling is what we should be doing for fun, not a do or die affair.

Secondly, you know that even in almost all gambling casino or others, it's always written to gamble responsible, but most gamblers don't adhear to that warning, and we mostly gets emotional when we gamble with what we can't afford to lose, so if we can gamble with only what we can afford to lose, we wouldn't be emotional in the first place, am saying this because I have had my own fair share of my own experience when gambling emotionally, you will start making stupid calls, because at that point, firstly you can't afford to lose the money you stake with and it's a do or die affair to you, so in essence is that it's very important to gamble with an amount you can afford to lose, so that you won't be emotional in the first place.

Being emotional when it comes to gambling has no much to do with the amount of money you use to gamble. It doesn't always matter whether it's little or much money. You can gamble with the amount you can afford to lose and still be emotional. The secret is that being emotional has always led to more lose which majority of gamblers are aware of but they normally assume that things might change in the next round until they realize that they have spent every penny and nothing change.

Although, when you gamble with little amount of money you will would probably be less emotional than when you use amount that you're not ready to lose. The urge to recover that money will definitely kick in and you might attempt to make another trial. Sincerely, emotion can not be entirely do away with but at least we can minimize it to barest if one can control himself.

[bakasabo]

Maybe OP just put together two facts and blame emotions for loosing, however, he feel different emotions and cant blame them for loosing. Like if OP feels happy, he also looses. Emotions are distracting from the game, that is true, but I cant say there is a 100% connections between loosing and emotions. I think the problem here is simple, chasing losses. All I can do is to suggest OP to take a pause from gambling, or change attitude to a more entertainment side.

That's right! You don't have to continue playing if you lost a bit of your sum and it seems that you as well have to return it in that same moment. Sometimes things don't go your way and that's it, the best course of action would be to relax a bit, have a good time outside, become free of your emotions (bad especially), and return fresh to have a good time, rather than being angry at everything surrounding you.

Our emotions can lead to wrong decision making on what to do next when gambling. This is why it is good that a gambler only use the amount of money that he can afford to lose in order to it not to affect his emotionally, because he can let go of such amount.

The best thing to do if you are getting emotional like you said is to stop gambling so that you don't incur losses since you are not gambling with your free mind. Gambling is not a do or die thing that if we don't gamble we will not be normal and that is why quitting at that moment when you are emotional is the best.

Obviously when you’re gambling you should be of clear mind. Irrational emotions and feelings fan lead you to make stupid decisions that can lose you money.

Only ever gamble when you’re calm and not suffering from any RL stress or anxiety.

And don't gamble when you are under the influence of liquor, Lol. I just had one recently, there was a birthday party and I got intoxicated that I decided to play online games, but in matter of minutes my $200 was swept to me like that.  .

So waking up is very bad for me, as when I'm sober I'm thinking that did I do to lose that quick. So I comeback the next fight, fully positive that I can recoup everything, having a clear mind. And yeah, I did, I had one of the best runs I had in slot machines and my favorite roulette. I guess I was just lucky that I recover everything that I lost when I was emotional + liquor.

That's right, and in most cases I'm sure that it's emotions that ultimately always lead a gambler to a much worse situation which generally means losing all the money they have at that time, and also of course emotions are something that really can trigger various impulsive actions that should be avoided as you said, which ultimately indirectly lead to very significant regret.

Basically, as we often hear from some of our friends who are here, stopping at the right time is always recommended, or what this means is that the ability to stop at the right time must be possessed by a gambler, because that is the only way a gambler will not falling into or being carried away by the atmosphere at that time. So in my opinion, the first step that must be prepared is to understand first that these emotions can lead us to a much worse situation, and second is to know when is the right time to gamble and when is the right time to stop, such as when you are have other problems in your life then of course never touch gambling at that time, or when you are running a session and you feel emotional because of a loss for example then of course you have to realize that it is the right situation to stop and take a break.

Whenever there's a problem with a gambler, I always say one word that can describe the possible solution for their problems. What is it? DISCIPLINE.

A disciplined gambler will not be an emotional one because he knows the consequences of being an emotional gambler. A disciplined gambler will know that being emotional when you're gambling will not benefit you at all. An emotional gambler has a higher chance to lose their money and lose even more money because there's a chance that they might deposit even more whenever they loss their first deposit. Like you, I've been an emotional gambler when I'm still a newbie, and I lost my capital because of wrong decisions and wrong bets.

Since I already learned how to be emotionless when it comes to investing, I just simply applied it to gambling. Being emotionless in gambling didn't increase my chances of winning though, but it had help me make better decisions. Being emotionless means not chasing losses. Being emotionless means not depositing furthermore and recover those losses. Being emotionless means making better decisions. You being emotionless will lower your chances of getting stressed and depressed.
