Why do people lose in gambling and still go ahead and bet more?

[Hypnosis00]

I've a friend of mine who always complain that ever since he started gambling he haven't won a good amount, instead he'll be winning less money than what he expected but he can't stop. So I'm asking what do you suggest he should do at this case. For me I told him that he should know that gambling it's a game of risk and luck, but with the constant betting you might win the amount you've at mind someday. So what are your suggestions towards this.

You should encourage your friend to stop gambling as it won't give him pleasure anymore. I don't know how your friend's gambling strategy but I could say that he is too emotional and irresponsible gambler. Changing his gambling strategy and behavior will change the results as well but most of all, he should control his betting. More gamblers suffer losses because they never know exactly what they have to do and most of the time we been relying on "there is next bet, may I was lucky", so we make bets again.

Gambling will definitely influence our mind which is why we should limit our time spend to it as well.

What he should do is to have self control. If he feels like he is not that lucky when it comes to gambling, he shouldn't force himself on playing regularly. Instead, he should take a break and stop complaining that he had a less chance of winning in gambling. Take the time-off he needed in gambling and change that kind of mindset he had.

After taking a break he can have a fresh start playing, or even better to consider trying another type of game, maybe he might do better on other games.

so many of people who is into gambling does not know about the gambling that is why they always complain of losing in gambling if you not the strategy store operate in gambling I don't think that you'll be able to complaining or be losing gambling because I know that whoever that loses in gambling it is the person personal fault

That is how it starts. At first it looks cool and you win money in the beginning but as you keep playing on you lose more money.
It is at that point when our emotions kick in and tell us to keep trying until we win more money.
But at that point of time we should stay calm and think wise. If we chase loses we lose more and that is why we need to set our own guidelines and strictly adhere to it.

Even from the start, the possibility of winning your bet is still based on luck because it's a 50/50 probability. It might still look cool even if you lose your bet in your first few tries. Once you have lost everything, you get emotional and start to gamble revengefully in order to just gain back the funds you have already lost. If reverse is the case, like the way you suggested, when a gambler starts gambling, they can win some rounds, which will motivate them to keep gambling even if they are losing. They will still believe that they have had the same streak of luck as when they initially started and lastly they end up still losing everything.

Rationally it can be a little difficult for some gamblers to continue staking and placing bets even if they've recently lost some bets. However for some others it really isn't much of a big deal. The main fact most of the time that determines if the gambler would continuously stake and bet even if they lost recently is either the magnitude of their loss or even their personal reasons or choice.
Every gambler has his pattern of placing bets and most of the time, as a responsible gambler you should have a threshold for how much money you put into placing bets. And if doesn't exceed the target limit, it should not be much of a big deal. However it would not be rational to continue staking and placing bets even when you've exceeded your limit and continue losing. gamblers who often do such things can easily be seen as a Gambling addict by most people.

It is true that some people who gamble think of gambling as a place to make money, that's why they find it very difficult to control themselves when betting because all they think about is winning, so they gamble and play it greedily, of course they are the ones who lose in betting. This is because they are their own fault for not being able to manage gambling well, but if they can gamble well then there is a possibility that they will be able to win on the bets they play.

I don't think that they got into gambling without having an idea that they're going to lose. If they gamble and they complain that they have lost, they're not responsible people.

But I don't think no one on Earth is like that.

They'd gamble and they don't have an idea what gambling is, in the first place they need to deposit whether it's with the physical or offline and online.

Which means they know gambling but I just can't understand it.

And when they are unable to control and control these desires and dreams, this will trigger addiction. Yes, because every time they lose, then they will feel that in the next round, they will get that luck, and then it will be like this until they don't feel it, they are addicted to gambling. However, if they have a gambling addiction, it will be quite difficult to stop it on their own, unless they have a big problem that will really make their life changing or if they get help from people around and treatment by professionals.

And here is what when someone's getting into addiction, cannot stop doing gambling and making problems.

I’m having to try your luck, you don’t always get to win. Such is the nature of gambling, you either lose or gain. Wish ever way it turns, you get to try again another day. Your luck doesn’t end with just one bet or in a single day.

When we are aware of it, when we are not getting stuck on gambling more and more, and as long as we are able to control ourselves in gambling, this won't be a big problem. The matter is when we are losing control and get into addiction, then, this will make us so difficult to stop and continue whatever happen. We must be aware that someone's luck will not lay forever, and luck cannot be expected to get into us every time we want it.

I’m having to try your luck, you don’t always get to win. Such is the nature of gambling, you either lose or gain. Wish ever way it turns, you get to try again another day. Your luck doesn’t end with just one bet or in a single day.

Other times, you find users to have lost in gambling, chasing their lose with more and more stakes and even bigger stakes. This happens to be a terrible strategy and those who find themselves in this situation often incur more loses. As a gambler, loses shouldn’t scare you but, it should rather make you conscious of your gambling habit and device means to keep it in check. You can also archive this by proper budgeting of your income and just how much you would be okay gambling with.

Gambling is a game of luck but it does not mean that you will attain huge profit if you try again and again because with such tries you can also face continuous loss. I think if a person once knows that his loss is more than his win and gambling is just spoiling the worth of his money then he should quit gambling because after this the risk increases more.

For him little win was better but now if he is going to try again and again so not only the success rate increases but the rate of loss also increases. There should be a break from gambling as regular gambling will force you to put huge money as a result of which you will lose all the amounts.

But the provocative ability of gambling is not simple, it not only causes a losing streak or a winning streak and causes mental collapse, it is like a fisherman, always offers very lucrative baits and sometimes it will sacrifice a few small baits to get bigger fish, many people will be vague in the matrix diagram between losing and winning, they only know that the distance of victory is closer than ever and need to make it happen by continuing. Such manipulations that weaken the will become a way for losers to lose more and bet more to withdraw faster.

Greed works so much in these gamblers that they don't see their own losses. Being attracted by greed, they face losses by making bigger bets. I've seen a lot of addicts, get back into their lives, and become happy again after they get help, but it can be very difficult for an addicted gambler to do that, because they affect the people around them and ruin their whole life. They are able to get help before their addiction taking value from their lives.

Have your friend heard of cumulative profit? If no, it is the profit one gets after summing his entire profit up and most times it is a huge amount that is being gotten. Your friend in this case is winning and not losing at all which is good there are gamblers who are looking for such luck int their gambling career.

Tell your friend it is better to have a consistence winning streak than winning sometimes and losing sometime. If he sums up all the profit, he had made he would see that he has made a good amount of money without losing anyone at all.

[Unbunplease]

When people lose, they always hope to win back (while often losing more and more). It's like a vicious circle. The brain is excited by the thought that I am about to catch the bird of luck by the tail. But this bird is getting farther and farther away. To start winning, you must first of all calm down and analyze your losses

[Miles2006]

I've a friend of mine who always complain that ever since he started gambling he haven't won a good amount, instead he'll be winning less money than what he expected but he can't stop.

So what are your suggestions towards this.

I don’t know if this suggestion is accurate but you’re actually giving your friend hope why he should gamble consistent for a lucky huge win someday. You don’t hope when gambling likewise a gambler not predicting rightly,  what I’m trying to explain is consistency and luck walk differently so you can see a gambler who gamble for year but no huge win meanwhile a new gambler who just started can get lucky and win. Your friend is not ready yet for gambling or else gambling win remains gambling win or else your friend want the life changing win which is so rare. The advice your friend need right now is never expect anything big or small from a game, aside gambling or other games, competition etc. expecting something huge is basically not guarantee so why not prepare your mind to face any situation big or small.

Lucky him that he still win even if it's a small amount only, what more if he experience losing every single bets that he make? less expectations can lead you in having smooth and stress free gambling session because sometimes, the more you expect, the more you lose. Gambling is a risky game and there's no certainty of winnings that's why I must say that he is one of the lucky persons doing gambling, what should your friend do is to enjoy the game and do not expect anything in return.

If most gamblers continue to gamble despite everything that they often lose, maybe it's because they have experienced winning that gave them joy. And the joy they felt is probably what drives them to continue to gamble.

Of course, we know that money can't buy the happiness we feel if it's true, right? This is one of the reasons why I said these things. And the other reasons—I'm not sure about those either.

Well, you are actually right but that might also lead them to become an addict because they will want to recover their loss money but the more they gamble, the more they lose even when knowing fully well that there is no progress but they don't want to give up, although it might turn out good for them but that won't be enough for what they lose and once they become an addict, it will really affect them in their lives, so to avoid that, they should set limits on how they are going to spend for that day and they will spend too, that way might even help them to be winning more than losing.

If playing is not enjoyable anymore then what's the purpose to continue? Unless if he's really after profit with a goal of gaining huge. Because those gamblers who have this desire can't stop even they keep on losing. Just give him advice to just play in moderation because gambling is a game of luck and chances to profit is slim. It's better to gamble and have fun rather than spending money then you'll be tempted to play again because you want to recover the losses.

It's not fun because OP's friend feels that while he's been gambling he's never experienced a big win, even though in fact it's not only OP's friend who feels that way. I think there are also many people who haven't experienced a big win in their life while they're involved in gambling because gambling games are more involved in there is a risk of losing. So whatever we play, we have to be able to accept whether we lose or win, don't expect gambling to give us big wins by gambling continuously because to get that we need luck and also dare to bet bigger amounts of money in order to get big profits too. But don't regret it if you end up losing and you lose a large amount of your money.

Everyone who gambles definitely wants big profits but they don't realize that to win big profits they also have to think about the risks and dare to bet large amounts but if they only use small money to gamble then the winnings won't be big and will continue like that. It is better to think of gambling as fun, we will feel pleasure when gambling and not feel the pressure of having to win gambling that matches our expectations.

Lucky him that he still win even if it's a small amount only, what more if he experience losing every single bets that he make? less expectations can lead you in having smooth and stress free gambling session because sometimes, the more you expect, the more you lose.

Getting a small win is much better than losing and losing the amount of money at stake, this is gambling where winning depends on luck, so just assume that maybe it's your luck even though the amount of winnings is small. Having the ability to be content and grateful with whatever amount of winnings you get is a good mindset when we talk about gambling, not least because as we know that most gamblers who always act greedy actually end up running out of more money than they win.

And as you said that gambling by limiting the expectation of winning can make us go through the session calmly and avoid stress, and that's true because actually in gambling even if you manage to get a big enough win but if you don't feel satisfied then obviously in the end you will continue the session with some more crazy actions and decisions that will basically make yourself closer to losing a significant amount. So it's better to be grateful for whatever amount of winnings you get, because there are always some gamblers who find it difficult to win even in small amounts which is because they are really far from luck.

The problem is that your friend is weak, I mean weak in his mind and decision-making, that is what he has to tackle since that is the source of his problem. He needs the Willpower to say No and Yes at the right times and over the right things so that he will not just be wasting himself away and the resources he has. He should start by acknowledging the fact that gambling is an extra activity and, not the mains of life.

By virtue of this, he should stop believing that his blessings are in gambling, otherwise, he will remain in his poor state. He should rather look for a better earning means, especially the ones that will get him so engaged with them and invariably disengaged with gambling. That's the way out. And if it is difficult for him to unplug himself from the act immediately, no problem, he should start by trying to give himself some breaks from it. It could be a day, two, a week and so on. It might be insignificant at first, but upon increasing this painstakingly, he will discover that he is getting loose off gambling.

Nevertheless, since he has not been gaining at all, that could mean that he is gambling only the casino aspect of it, why not he try sports betting? However, if the result is the same after about 3 months, I strongly urge your friend to quit gambling, it's not just his thing.

But, how long since your friend started playing gambling? If he is playing for a very long time now, I'm sure that he already experienced a big win but he is only there when he is confessing to you, although it also has to do with the amount that he used for placing his bets. If he is only using small amounts, then yeah that he can also win small.

It also has to do with the game that we are playing, as some has a limitation when it comes to the multiplier that they can gave to us. And the reason on why he can't stop is because he already tasted a victory before or simply the adrenaline rush in gambling already got him, just like the rest of us. Your advice towards your friend is alright but if if were to give mine, I think that is: 'He should only play amounts that he can afford to lose'.
