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

[GigaBit]

Only because that we have discovered its not every gambling that is playing bet is doing that for the sake of making money, some are more concerned on how they will gamble and use it as a means of being entertained and they wont mind on the cost this may incur on them as long as they are going to get satisfied with what they want, all of us cannot because of loosing stop gambling, we are not gambling to earn money, instead for fun.

I think there are two reasons why a gambler continues his gambling even after losing. One is that they consider gambling a part of entertainment. I have seen some of the sports bettors who are more inclined to bet during the sports betting period. They enjoy their time. They take the risk even knowing that there is a risk in the bet. Another one of the reasons is that they continue gambling with the intention of getting big winnings from gambling. They feel that if they pull out of their efforts, they will fail to fulfill their dreams. As long as their gambling continues, they will be able to keep that dream alive.

That is right, But I think we should stop gambling at some point especially when the amount of loss increases as well as when gambling starts to transform from habit to addiction. Because if this is the case, instead of having fun, it will make our life more miserable. I am not going to disagree with you that not all kinds of gamblers are doing gambling for only fun but it is also true that there is a large number of gamblers who can't control their self do gambling for the greed as well as when if they are addicted then they have this cause for the go ahead with gambling even still have loss.

It's simply another form of addiction. For some people.  In the case of your friends it seems like that.  For other people like me I use it as a form of entertainment and honestly if I lost all the time but enjoyed the gambling aspect of it than I'm not too worried.  Not that I don't want to win but I don't bet enough for it to become addictive one way or another.

Addiction to gambling goes beyond pulling a lever or playing cards. Your brain lights up like a Christmas tree after your first major triumph. Like drugs, man. You follow that feeling even when the chances are against you because it hijacks your reward system. It goes beyond luck. It depends on your brain wiring, life events, and money and risk beliefs. Not everyone is susceptible, and it's hard to predict who will tumble down that rabbit hole

What can you do? Man, be aware. When playing, you must be mindful of your emotions. Thinking you're invincible or about to win big is a red flag. It's time to reconsider. In the zone, it's hard to accomplish that. Flashing lights and coins striking the tray can make you lose track of time. Set limits, know when to leave, and have a support system if needed

Hahaha 😂😂, saying that a gambler's brain lights up lik a Christmas tree is really a perfect description of a gambler's reaction after they have either won or lose in a bet. If they stake and win on the first hand, they will be filled with enthusiasm to stake more, believing that the luck will run in their favor again and when they lose, they will have enough enthusiasm to stake more, believing that they will win that time. Funny how some gamblers react and fall into addiction at the end of the race. 

This is why it is said that there are people that due to their genetic inheritance are more likely to become addicts, the reward system on your brain, aka dopamine, will reward you with some dopamine after a win, however in most people that reward will be on the small side and this will allow you to stop whenever you want, however for some people the reward will be so stimulant that they will keep gambling just to experiment that feeling again, regardless of the consequences this behavior may have on their finances.

Addiction is the major problem that will make anyone to continue gambling even when he is losing because he cannot control himself on when to stop gambling, maybe because he is busy chasing his losses. Another thing is when a gambler is using gambling to pass time will always continue gambling even though they are running at loss.

A gambler can also continue gambling even at loss because he is having fun and have not exceed his gambling budget, he will keep on gambling.

Yes, its always been the main common problem with gambling on which it is really that something that could entertain you but also it is a thing that could make you addicted on which if you are someone whose really that not good when it comes to handling out your emotions or something that do talks about handling or making such good decisions on various conditions then you would most likely be getting addicted with gambling and this is something that you should really be that careful because we know that once addiction would really be something that trapped into someone then it would really be that so damn hard to get out. This would really be causing up that kind of behavior on which you would really be continuing on playing no matter what until you would be busting up yourself to the floor.

Why people do continue? because they would be loving on making up some wins or would be simply trying out to recover on what they have lost on which this would really be that a common approach
by someone on which it isnt really that shocking anymore.

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.

Your friend complaint is normal when it comes to gambling, it's not a place where you will win and then quit, even if you win somehow gambling has a way it drag you back, so your friend might not be suffering from anything actually but with a condition where he gambles with the amount he can afford to lose. If he gamble with less amount of money, there is no harm in trying again as you never know when you will win money to recoup your loses.

The only caution I will give your friend is to improve on his gambling skills, it's not palatable for a gambler to lose money continuesly, there most be a change in your result; if one doesn't work you have to give it another way and try it, gambling has hundreds of ways to utilize options to win gambling, one must work for you.

[blockman]

You're not yet addicted if you have lost for the first time and you still want to come back. There's nothing with that, IMHO. But if you're keep on coming back and you're harming your daily tasks, your family and other people. Then there's something wrong with you. It's a human nature that we keep coming back even if we lose, it's our natural instinct not to give up too early. However, if you're seeing that there's no return and value to what you do and you are getting the same results of frustrations, that's the time that you should move on because no one will be able to change that results but you. So, either you will still come back but in some other days or you'll never come back and do something different for you to find that satisfaction result. This is very common in gambling and even if we've been losing a lot of cash, we're all brave to keep on going until we realize that there's no sense to keep on losing but when you get there, it's hard to move on because of how much loss you already have.

He should take a break and he should talk to people about this issue, he believes he will win to recover all his losses, he might take so many risks just to win but gambling is a game of luck.

[junder]

Yes, it is true that some people gamble just for fun, but this will be difficult for those who gamble out of greed and habit. They will continue to play bets as long as they still have funds that they can gamble and only realize after they have used up the funds they have. just regret it, this is really pointless because they won't be able to get back the money they bet.
Someone who has developed an addiction will of course put them in financial problems and it is important for every gambler to be able to control themselves in the gambling they play so that they do not experience bad effects on themselves.

Of course, those who gamble by prioritizing their greed will not make themselves lucky, because those who follow their greed will only lead them to greater losses which in the end will only make them feel regret. This also means that they are addicted to gambling and of course they will continue to bet even though they have experienced a losing streak, whether they have money or not is not their benchmark, even though they no longer have money, but because they are addicted to gambling they will still do everything to can return to gambling, such as by borrowing money or even taking big risky actions that could harm themselves or even other people.

The desire to be able to recover losses continues to incite them to gamble, even though they lose that is not the end of their gambling, they will come back by betting again and the predictable ending is losing money again and regretting that it continues like that so that it becomes an impulsive act. What you say is correct, it is important for gamblers to be able to control themselves so that they don't experience big losses, because big losses can be prevented by us controlling everything, including the gambling we do, if we have self-control that can be determined, maybe there won't be any losses. something big happens or an action that carries a big risk.

It's more better if he doesn't have to playing gambling, especially if he can't wins the gambling games. Instead gets lose more money in gambling, that will be the best decision if he can stops gambling immediately and allocates his money to other things that will helps him to improves his lives. His risks of losing the money will be bigger if he keeps playing gambling, even if he can wins small money, that doesn't mean he can wins much money because in gambling, someone can't wins easily. He must realizes about that and needs to stops his gambling activity immediately to prevents the other losses. Take a break can be a solution to him but he must knows that take a break for a while can makes him to back to the gambling games and that can makes him playing gambling aggressively without thinks to stops playing gambling.

However chasing losses will always be a bad idea when it comes to gambling, not least because casinos apply random algorithms to every game which makes the outcome at the end of the session always unknowable, on the other hand I'm not going to say that the idea won't work because of course anything can happen if they manage to get lucky, but what we have to remember is that it's very difficult to get that good luck to reach the recovery stage or to restore all the losses you've experienced.

And it's also a nonsensical idea to chase losses where you've lost money, and we should be able to think in this direction that it was gambling that made you lose money in the first place, and it doesn't make sense to chase losses in the same place, obviously. And as you said, in the end it will most likely only increase the amount of loss and this has been proven because there are enough cases like this where chasing losses creates a much worse situation.

Let's say that as a starting point where someone will be addicted to gambling in the end because people who have a gambling budget limit and limit their gambling habits will not bet more and continue playing, they will stop consistently because that way they can avoid gambling addiction, especially if the goal is to recover from losses so that you continue to play and bet more when you lose it will definitely not work in the end, I often meet people like that around me, my gambling friend, he always plays like that and hasn't changed that's why he is addicted to gambling now.

Everyone has their own goals but most of them gamble for money and want to win big so they are willing to bet even bigger because they want to win. I think there is something wrong with their mindset so it must be straightened out that gambling is not just about winning but you have to understand risk and must also accept defeat, every gambler who only considers gambling as a means to have fun will definitely not be serious when experiencing defeat, he will stop whenever he wants and will not continue to bet bigger just to try to recover from the loss.

Constant betting will not make you to win, if you think that you might get lucky one day, it might not happen or you will end up losing more money than you will be able to win. Do not depend on gambling that it is going to make you money one day, there are many people that thought in the same way but they do not have any success since they have been gambling. People continue to gamble in the hopes of winning one day, this is why they do not stop in spite of gambling not giving them good results. I would not want to keep losing money from gambling therefore if gambling was not favoriing me I would not continue to gamble. Gambling has a spirit that wants you to continue playing in spite of all the losses that you are getting from it. Gambling is not an evil sport but if you are abusing it, it will cause you harm.

Gambling is completely dependent on luck they don't believe in it they use their experience and skills to win gambling with confidence they go back to gambling after losing again and again. Gambling drives people who are addicted to gambling crazy. for this one should always try to keep oneself away from gambling and must keep a long break during gambling. otherwise, gambling addiction will drag you there again and again even if you lose again and again

Gambling is not a means to financial freedom and so it's best he playes it with that kind of mindset and maybe follow it up as a means to having fun and not just a scheme that will certainly fetch in huge money. Everyone knows what works best for them and so he is in the best position to know if he should continue gambling or not.

Definitely he is in good position to know if it's best for him to continue or not. Because he is an adult who can not be manipulated easily. Sometimes advicing someone to continue gamble when he is loosing may look like a wrong advice, but it surely depends on how the Gambler sees the advice. Sometimes people continue gambling having hope of wining big someday, when there dream finally comes to reality, they becomes wise and when they lose continuously without win, they become fools who don't know what they are doing. For me gambling is a person game which a person has a final say to his decision.

It's a two way thing. Nothing is certain that if he continues playing that he would win that particular amount of money he is having in his mind to win. So is he willing to keep gambling with the hope that he is going to win someday. It's very simple, he should increase his staking power to stand a better chance of winning big money. If he decides to keeps accumulating plenty games together to get bigger odds so he can win big money with little money it might take him ages. But if he has money he should accumulate little odds like 10 to 15 odds and wager substantial amount of money on the odds, he stand a bigger chance of winning huge money. That's why the rich always have a better chance of winning big in gambling.

You just remind me about this particular guy, he is known for winning big and atleast one bets but got more than a month, he didn't win any games but when the time later won, he made more than all he lost for that month and played another similar option the following day twice and win two more extra bets and the profits were crazy, this is why you don't quit in gambling. Some days you will win and some days you will lost but if you are good in gambling, you will have your lucky day to win what will recover everything plus additional profits.

If your friend is complaining that he doesn't win, then he is probably new to gambling, people that actually good in gambling knows that it's just one of the ways you make money in gambling, it's not something you have power on but a good skill will earn you something one day and if you stake high, you will earn high even with a multiplier or with a multiple odd. But if he thinks he can't, he should quit and give it a rest.

That's right! The most mistake made today by beginners is that they think gambling is an easy money. No. Huge capital is needed if you want to make profits out of it. Deep pockets.
After I won the x5000 last month, there had been people asking me where I gamble. That's because my wife told her colleagues that I won a high multiplier.
But I didn't answer them what they are asking, instead I told them it is gambling and I just got lucky. It is a rare thing to happen and it would cost them a lot of money before they can hit it.
Thankfully, they are not the type of people that will keep on coming to ask for more details. I also told them it is not a gambling site that accpets our local currency but it does accept cryptocurrencies. That made them think about it because they know how much it would cost them in transaction fees before they could deposit.

It is really difficult to give advice to someone who has entered the addiction phase, no matter how often you give advice to them in the end they still won't listen to you, because as you said above that an addicted gambler does not believe that the results in gambling always depend on luck so as you said that they always try to use their experience and skills to produce victory, or it can also be said that they have excessive expectations along with excessive confidence that the method they have can produce a lot of wins, when it is clear that in fact the opposite is happening where they suffer a lot of losses, but that's the addicted gambler, always thinking positively that someday they will really be able to realize their hopes which in fact such a mindset and approach will only make them experience greater losses over time.

Well most people said it's a game of luck and risk but i think gambling it's a game of risk and grace, it is obvious that this grace has been mistaken for luck. However, for someone to stop gambling it required a lot of determination and self discipline though it is not easy to stop gambling especially when you have set a target to meet before stopping and you have not gotten to that target. Continous gambling will not make you to win any further provided your grace is not suffient to..., If you think what you are winning is not encouraging the best thing is just to stop gambling because i see gambling as something that is spiritual.

And as you said, in the end it will most likely only increase the amount of loss and this has been proven because there are enough cases like this where chasing losses creates a much worse situation.

Chasing the lose is a normal thing that many gamblers still do because they thinks that they have the other chances to wins after lose for some money. They will not see that they don't have a big chance to wins in gambling instead just lose for more. They may gets wins but that doesn't mean they can recover all of their money that has been gone in gambling because their losses will still big than their wins. So if people can realizes about their lose and don't thinks about recover or chasing their lose, they will not do that instead just leave the casinos.

Hopefully, people will knows that if they still chase losses, they will only lose more money that they can't afford and will not have a big chance to gets their money back. They must realizes that if their money is gone in gambling, that means they must stops their gambling activity immediately. Otherwise, they will not have a chance to stops their gambling activity before all of their money is gone. Their losses will becomes bigger and have a chance to becomes addicted to gambling.
