Simple mistake that makes you lose everything

[HelliumZ]

I am usually very careful when it comes to gambling but I made a fatal mistake in my betting and experienced a $100 loss for the first time in my life. I clicked on one team's place in the wrong order in Sportbetting and another team was clicked so I lost $100 on that bet. Because the team I wanted to select was sure to win that match but accidentally clicked on another team and lost the bet on that team due to which my bet amount was lost. After that mistake, I didn't warn myself afterwards and I definitely watched the bait carefully when I caught it. After that mistake I didn't make a second mistake but I corrected myself a lot.

When you think that you're lucky all day long. That's a common mistake and we've been dealing with that every time we're winning. We think that we're immortals and we're never going to lose any money when we feel that we're lucky the entire time we gamble. But, that's also the time that we're about to everything. So upon having that moment of conviction that you're having the whole day winning all of those dices, sportsbets, and all other games, you're believing in a lie of your own.

I always have this kind of mistake before way back when I’m still inexperienced gambler. A simple mistake such as not placing a bet on a round that result to massive win just because my screen glitch makes me tilted that resulted to lose focus and bust all my bankroll quickly due to risky bets.

I’ve experienced something like this before. It was really saddening for me because I could have won that round in the game I played. Mine wasn’t my screen but the internet. The platform seemed to rely so much on strong internet and when the internet wasn’t really strong, it stopped me from participating in the round, even if I thought I was already in.

[bayu7adi]

But why have I never experienced something like this? Or maybe my gambling experience is so minimal that simple errors like this and big losses can't easily come to me. Some errors, such as the screen suddenly turning off or maybe my focus being blurred, do happen often, but I never considered it to be a trigger for big losses in the bets I played.

Maybe this is just part of your worst day, so you are forced to experience this defeat. This has probably happened to you, so it could happen to other people too (but sorry, not me).

Increasing focus on the game may make you more careful in every bet you make. This focus can be global, such as adequate equipment, a healthy body, a clear mind, good awareness and so on. Of course, you don't want a small mistake to cause big losses to reappear.

Well, it wasn't specifically a mistake that cost me a lot of money but if I had done it, I could win something about 8x of my initial bet.

So I was placing a bet on a sports game, cricket, and the team that I had in mind was giving very low odds because the team was ahead of its opponent and one couldn't think they would lose the game considering how consistent they were throughout the tournament. So I placed my bet, but I was told by my partner that the other team, which was providing higher odds, would win the game, I didn't listen to it and placed my bet on my personal choice.

To my surprise, the favourite that I had chosen lost the game, and the one my partner suggested won, if I had chosen that team, I could get 8x of my bet.

Actually I think it is very common in gambling that as a gambler, you will always have something you usually do that always makes you to lose your bet and your money, but as for me, their is something I usually do back then which I always lose anytime I do it, and that is, after prediction football matches at home, I have finished booking my games, I will take it to the our local betting shop to play the game, someone from nowhere will just come and start telling me the possible outcome of another match, and me I will stupidly add that match to my already booked game, and I will play it like that, when the final results came out, I will discovered that I would have won if I had not added that extra game from the guy I saw at the betting shop, because it's always that extra game I added that will stop me from winning and spoil the game

I might not have made the mistake you just shared but I think every gambler gave his way of losing owing to simple mistakes that usually become clear when the event have been settled. Personally, I have had countless number of losses that are dependent of mistakes. For instance, there have been days I lose simply I want to get x5 when my favourite could only offer x2.

There was a time I played sports betting and had the bet spoilt by over0.5 goal with an odd of 1.05 even when my mind was telling me to remove that particular event from my slip. I think that mistake is normal and what makes gambling what it is.

Haha, i could understand the part you said you have placed a bet and the lowest odd in sports betting history spoilt the game. I knew there was this full assurance that particular game would play, and it was the one game you had never thought of it cutting. But things goes south when you don't expect them.

Gambling can be very funny you know, when you take the lowest risk sometimes it still doesn't end up right and when you choose to take the highest risk it goes right.

Seriously this got me,you might be taking the highest risk sometimes and still lose it over ,it's rather vice versa as it varies alot times.
Such simple mistakes results in a higher chance of risk that's worth winning.
You aiming for the bigger odds meanwhile your intended wasn't up to that and boom at the end of it you loose everything trying to go for something bigger,the worst mistake that could ever happen to any gambler.
We should all be going with the flow and go with a lower bet the chances of winning can be ascertained and again having so much high expectations reducing the chances of winning.

Maybe sometimes we have to listen to the instincts of others, right? but its hard to do because what if you followed your partner and then didn't win the team he chose? You'll even be able to get a little discouraged by that. So, you're going to have to be more careful with your instincts, even if you lose your choice, at least you don't blame anyone else but yourself. It's a bit of a shame, but that's it, maybe luck doesn't always favor for us.

It is just a matter of probabilities, the more you gamble the higher the chances that you will see all kind of odd things that you may have thought were impossible, and obviously if your experience is limited then there is little chance for this to happen, so if you are relatively new to gambling or it is something that you do very sporadically, then it is not rare that you have not encountered and suffered those small mistakes, which can make you to lose a substantial amount of money.

I have been into that stage where I think I am actually more lucky that day that I end up betting a huge amount in a casino without hesitation. At first, I won at a consistent basis, but eventually when my profits are growing, that’s when I start losing them slowly. Until I lose all my winnings in gambling including my small amount of capital. That’s when I realized that no matter how lucky you are, the house has always an edge, and there’s nothing we can do to beat that.

This is my top mistakes honestly, when you have the chance to take the profit and yet you still choose to aim more which resulted to wiping out all your money. Being too emotional and greedy are the common mistakes for the gamblers and I think everyone here experienced the same mistakes especially during our early time with gambling.

This kind of mistake is not just only during only in our early stage or as newbies, we still make such mistake as experienced players but probably not often and the reason is still about emotion. As a gambler you may not totally keep your emotion on check all the time, from time to time there are mistakes still made but because of being experienced, you can move on faster than a newbie because you took a minimal risk that won't cause you too much financial pain at the end of the day.

There is what we called accident and although it may seem different from a mistake, it can still trigger an annoyance which leads to unwanted decisions which also leads to being busted in gambling. No one is exempted from accidents no matter if you are a newbie or a professional. We can say that it was only a gambling anyway, so why prepare too much such as checking our emotions if it's in a stable state?

But, it's funny that we can regret later on once our emotions messes up with our games. Experienced gamblers can take more risks actually as they are more confident although they can handle it once their play goes wrong.

If you are someone whose really that too impulsive on the time that you would really be commiting out those kind of accidents then if you are really that someone whose that emotion that easily explode up then you would really be that prone into further loses on which on the time that you would really be losing up your composure or control then this is the moment you would really be trying out to make those kind of impulsive actions which would be leading into loses. Mistakes are somewhat cant be avoided sometimes but with due experience then you could really be able to determine on whose
really the one could be able to handle out such situation and whose the one who would really be ending up on doing actions on which arent supposed to be done.

[Zigabel]

I also made such mistake in the past. If a gambler is losing, the gambler needs to stop because the way he will think and gamble at that time will be different and it would be in a way he will waste more money on gambling and later regret it after losing all his money. Another mistake that is common to me is when I win enough already but still tempted to continue playing and end the day with massive losses.

Temporarily quiting when you are suffering some kind of loss will definitely go a long way helping the gambler because they are definitely going to save some money at that point when they are not actively gambling but when they are actively gambling they stand the risk of loosing their funds such that they may very likely not even be able to recover almost immediately so it's usually more better they temporarily quit until probably the following day , that way they will be able to play better and if possible recover from the previous days loss they did got resulting from their gambling activities.

Sometimes it does happen that after a good win you tend to feel like you know better and can be able to gamble even much better probably because it's now looking like you have got a better understanding of the gambling at that point than you have done before so you feel like some extra more trial could help you get to the point where you will be able to win.

There was a time I played sports betting and had the bet spoilt by over0.5 goal with an odd of 1.05 even when my mind was telling me to remove that particular event from my slip. I think that mistake is normal and what makes gambling what it is.

I still remember the time I selected like 8 matches that gives over 10 odds. All were over 1.5 and over 0.5 goals. I won 7 matches already that day and it remains one which was over 0.5 goals. I thought I would win but the match ended with no goal. But if it is about mistakes I can not call my losses in gambling as mistakes. Gambling is a game of chances.

Gambling should be viewed as a game of chance rather than one based on experience or mistakes. Mistakes are unavoidable, even if you are experienced, but once you see it as a game of chance, your loss will not slow you down or make you want to avoid gambling in the future. It would be better to quit the gambling act than gambling without a foresight on how it works. Gambling provides a wealth of experience to learn from, but keep in mind that it is based on chance, and if it does not find you, it will be difficult for you to profit significantly.

People wont really be able to realize not until they would really be able to experience such unfortunate conditions on which we know that this could eventually be that avoided if they are really just that sensible on the things that they've been doing. Gambling is for fun and not for making money or income source because you would really be that making yourself that desperate on the time that you would be losing that big.
Recovery would really be the main thing that you have in mind on the time that you would really be having that kind of loses on which you would really be that likely putting up yourself on such great trouble
when everything gets messy then this is where you would really be realizing and making those self learning about this stuff.

You could eventually be able to avoid if you are really just that sensible on the things that you are doing and not really just that rushing up just because you are really that aiming
on getting rich overnight on which we know that cant be possible on doing gambling.

What accident? I don't think there's such thing as accident in gambling, because it is you who choose to gamble in the first place, you didn't just accidentally stumbled upon in a casino or online casino.
Also, there is no accident bets, you choose it in the first place and if you happened to place a wrong amount of bet, then that's carelessness or we can call a mistake, but not accident though.
Regrets are always there, and yeah experience will toughen up the level of regrets we get after gambling.

Regrets are always there you said it correctly but before going there you mean that there is no accident and in fact is true though I think the accident is that you come to such a part of the gambling session that your emotions are controlling you and not you controlling your emotions.It is exactly in this phase that most people lose it out completely and they are controlled by their emotions which in such case,the gambling emotions tells you in forms of whispers,increase the bet now as you are going to win,you have lost long enough and people because of human nature tend to believe these whispers which lead ultimately to the regrets,lots of regrets and I have been there personally,with much difficulties I am out of this cage now thank God.

That is what directly indicated knowledge, and believe me, if, in the process when you made that mistake, you won the game. I bet you it will never be a regret for you, and you will not be attentive when ever it comes to setting up a bet again because you will always be expecting that miracle to happen again, but as the result turns out wrong, you sadly accept your mistakes and try not to do that again, which is the best because anyone who makes a mistake twice is definitely not serious enough to face life. 
 
But normally in gambling, you are expected to put it as your first priority to lose because that is how it is when you have chosen to be a gambler. You have to possess that belief that you might lose or win because you are just testing your prediction, and if you always do that, it will be so hard for you to always regret when you lose a game.

I once made a mistake in sports betting that caused me a loss. I should have chosen a strong team instead I chose a weak team, this is what I do when betting parlay. I should have won at that time but because of this small mistake I lost the parlay, but with this mistake I was more careful in clicking when choosing a team. Indeed, at that time I was using a smartphone. Understandably, the display on a smartphone sometimes requires extra caution before choosing because it looks small.

After that I never made a mistake, indeed my bets often lost, but it wasn't wrong, it was just that I was unlucky in predicting a match. However, the mistake I mentioned above was purely the result of a fatal error because I chose a weak team. I was also surprised why the odds were so big, it turned out there was an error when I chose the team. From here I learned that before carrying out the betting process, I checked several times so that no more mistakes would occur.

Right, I quite agree with your point that we can't say that the downturn in gambling was an accident because after all it was us who decided to get involved in gambling in the first place and that means everything happens as a result of your own actions, or all the impacts happen because you are not able to maintain and control your gambling activities because there are some people who are still in a fairly safe situation even though they have been involved for a long time and that means there is a difference in terms of managing gambling activities, most likely you are gambling in the wrong way and that is not recommended.

There's no such thing as a mistake in gambling because it's all abstract anyway, or in other words you'll never know what makes you win and what makes you lose, so there's no mistake but carelessness because I'm sure you wouldn't say it was a mistake if your session ended up winning, would you? And there is a possibility for you to try it again because you might think that "it seems like the right action to bring victory" and all that is said is that the mistake in gambling is when you break the rules that you have made yourself intentionally, and also losing happens not because you made a mistake but this is what is called gambling activity.
