Risk or regret? (2)

[bering]

This is hard question to answered but indeed i personally will be more regret to dealing with the situation not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option especially if i won the bets it can be considered as life changing amount because in my opinion this chances probably only happened for once in our lifetime so i would very regret if this is happend to me

And i have to says facing the situation above is more painfull rather than taking the risk and ended up with the loses because taking risk and lost in gambling is commontly to happend even every gamblers has dealing these situations quite often because we all know gambling is fully of risk and we never know when luck comes to us

Considering risk and regret, which do you think will be the most painful for a gambler?

- the pain from taking a risk that they take on a bet and they lose, or the pain from regret of not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option, a life-changing amount?

It is hardly possible to seriously worry about an unmade bet, the winning of which would change your life - I can assume that the odds of such a bet must be very high. What is there to regret in this case? That you did not know the future in advance?
Personally I never regret losing bets if it's a high odds bet, I like to bet on events with odds of +-10 so losing here is an absolute routine. But when I lose a bet with odds of 1.1-1.2 it's an absolute pain, especially if they were part of a multiple bet.

It always hurts more to bet because you took a risk with the positive belief that you would win and double the capital that you bet on. It hurts more if you lose compared to
if you didn't bet but it hit.

Because of that, you thought it would hit, but you didn't bet, and what you thought hit, and it happened in the casino you were watching. You will only feel regret compared to when you bet and lost the money you bet because you lost.

Regret.

Regret isn't only about lose opportunity for not betting, but the feeling to regret for losing a lot money for gambling and regret for not making money from gambling.

Gambling and risk can't be divided, even life is full of risk, but some people might not able to take risk of losing money in short time. So, if they don't want to risk any money, they shouldn't gamble at all.

Speaking out of experience the pain from regret hurts more especially when you would have won a lot of money, I remember when I placed a bet on sporty bet with 18 naira I wasn't expecting it to have a successful outcome because they were just random selections that was why I staked very low, to my greatest surprise the game was successful and I won 26 thousand naira, instead of being happy I was having regretful feelings of not staking a thousand naira on that game..the pain of taking a risk and losing can't be compared to the regret of missing a big opportunity

Regret will be the most painful for a gambler because when they lose their money in gambling, they will regret even if they are often playing gambling, feeling of regret will be there. The risks will also painful but some people can reduce the risks not to becomes big but they will still regret when they lose.

But if that is about the regret of not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option will be different than the regrets when they lose because they will not lose their money and only lose their chance to place a bet. That will not considering as a lose and that is not a risks because he is not placing any bet. The regret of not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option will not stay too long because they will have another hope to win from gambling games. That will makes them think twice to place a bet now or later.

I think it is the pain of not taking the risk and the games turns out to be the winning options, I just remembered the last time something like this happend to me. It made me to consider to take every bet that my mind thinks will be a winning option. I was glad I had a friend that stopped me from doing that because later, I understood that it was just desperation that was giving me that kind of thinking and I would had lost money if I went ahead with what was in my mind. When you take a risk and lose, you would not get angry because you know you tried your best but to live with the thought that you had an opportunity to better your life and you did not take it because you did not want to lose an amount that you will still lose later when you gamble is very annoying and painful.

Most risk are worth taking cause you might end up getting that thing that you eventually risk for but nothing is more painful than regretting to not have taking a bet that Worth alot winnings for you, it's very devastating and fustrating like I know how it feels to have missed such opportunity.

Well taking the risk and loosing won't be that painful as regretting not to have betted,cause it's an avenue that one made an attempt,that's why you see most people visit sites and offline bets shops to keep trying cause they feel definitely or certainly one day they'll win big but not trying at all and then you hear from a friend how he won huge amounts would be so painful and regretting.

Good question, but I think both could be painful for gambler. Yes, we know that risk and we are willing to take it, however, most of the time we "believed" that we are going to win no matter what the odds are. And so if we see that our bets are almost close to winning, then it change course and we ended up losing, then it has a big negative effect on us mentally. I know some gamblers who can't sleep at night thinking of like the post mortem, what went wrong to their bet and why suddenly the God of gamblers doesn't want him to win that bet, specially if it is a life changing amount.

And it could be the same with the regrets, you probably there to put your bet and suddenly you change your mind or you are late as the betting line was close (happen to me last night during a run with roulette games). So the same effect on me, was so mad and then blaming myself for not putting that bet on time.

Like I said in the other forum, I prefer not betting at all and regret it for a short period of time than for me to go on and bet with money that I know I can’t possibly afford to lose just because there are possibilities of me making more with it and if I eventually lose it I won’t be able to forget it easily.

If I should miss a bet I.e a bet I didn’t play - it will only take a couple of hours before I take my mind off of it, because I know that the money was never mine to begin with, crying over it seems like I just went to someone’s house saw him crying over the money I saw in his house.

I gamble to be happy. I used to have this dilemma a lot when I didn't turn gambling into a form of entertainment. We don't know for sure that we will win and we don't know for sure that we will lose. We are more likely to fail. But we don't know what percentile our next chance will be. So I don't think it's necessary to think about risk or regret. Instead, I think looking for ways to have fun is a better choice. I gamble with small amounts and I usually bet on football matches. This activity makes the matches more exciting for me. That's the only meaning of gambling for me.

I have gone through both, and the experience is painful on both, but the latter is the one that seriously hurts. I experience sleepiness and sorrow. It was a lotto bet I just missed by a few minutes betting those lucky numbers that turned the jackpot and that could have changed my life.

I tried to avoid that kind of scenario, so I always bet early. When I come up with numbers, I make it a point to bet them so there's no regret, whatever happens. I could let it pass if it's a small win, but if it's a life-changing amount, you will blame yourself for a long period of time, which will cause depression.

We all have different opinions when it comes to risk and regret. To me, one thing I don't like to do is regret why I didn't take action or why I did something I did. Regret is one of the things I hate the most to experience.
 
It's better to take the risk of placing a bet and losing the game than not taking the risk at all and later realising that the game played according to the way I predicted it to play.

The truth be told that, one major reason why people always end up with regret is because they aren’t actually wanting to be responsible for their actions and end up getting trap in the opinions of others.
Just as I write in this thread that, it is always better to take the risk especially when it is the one you can afford to take rather than getting trapped in the boat of regrets of missing out.

Gambling is already a very risky game and anyone getting involved in it should be ready to be responsible for their actions or be ready to miss out from a lot of opportunities or take unnecessary decisions

Seems like if you risk you don't have to risk everything so you wouldn't regret taking a gamble if you didn't lose everything. Obviously on the other hand, you might regret not betting everything if the bet wins, but you would regret everything if the bet loses and you bet it all. IMO better to play it safe and only risk a portion of your bankroll on a bet and give yourself a chance to recover if you hit a loser. Rome wasn't built in a day my friend.

I guess the regrets is more painful to the gambler since in that situation they are not really sure with those actions or decision they are doing then if they lose everything for sure that they heavily feel bad on the situations they choose and they might blame their selves or someone on why they are in miserable situation.

Compare on situation where they know the risk and can accept the consequences of the action they have done, then in this situation for sure a gambler can easily move on on their losses and think about trying their luck next on next time they gamble.

Regret will make you miserable so never take a risk that will leads to regret. And I don't think we will feel the pain while taking risks, it's mostly adrenaline rush that is not a painful event unless you can explain or give any scenario that makes it as a painful event.

Regret will do nothing but it's cruel so not just in gambling, in your entire life think twice or thrice or as much as you want because once we are into the hole there is no coming back which can be positive or negative outcome but will never be the same.

This feeling is very similar to FOMO in investing, when a trader or investor wanted to invest, but did not dare, and then regrets it when the token flies into the sky. But this is a bad feeling. I believe that if someone decided not to invest or not to make a bet, then in his head common sense overcame the arguments that the bet should be made. And you should not regret this, changing your decision after knowing the result.

In my opinion the pain for taking a risk and losing money you shouldn't lose is the worst thing which can happen to a gambler, because it will bring negative consequences on other aspects of his life, while the pain for regretting not have placed a bet won't imply any further negative consequences for the gambler. It means he didn't lose anything, he just didn't win. Therefore, his finances won't get out of control, his family won't get mad on him, he won't feel stressed trying to find alternatives on how to recover the money.

We regret for not having done things all the time. But it's the things we have done and went wrong that we most regret about...

If i were to compared the pain of taking a risk and losing and the regret of not placing a gamble that ultimately wins, the regret often appears more painful and lasting there lasts The immediate pain of a gambling loss is tangible, with direct consequences such as financial loss and emotional distress . Such pain is perceived in real time and is generally easily managed through coping strategies. Regret is different, stems from the emotional distress of missing a potentially life-changing opportunity. This pain is largely abstract, and involves constant self-deprecation and what happens as a consequence that replays in the gambler’s psyche. As far as i know, continuous prestige can be especially dissatisfying and cause deep emotional turmoil if the failed bet was perceived as an especially obvious or rewarding one. So even though the pain of a losing bet inside is great, and glory if they do not gamble potentially profitable may be consistent and mentally taxing, it is important to acknowledge that you do not have it all and it covers your well-being. Use your experiences to learn and make better decisions from them in the future.

The feeling of regret is terrible especially when the outcome is actually in your favor but due to hesitation and doubt you didn't take the chance. This can put you in quite a depressive state for some time knowing that you had an opportunity but you didn't take it
But one thing you must learn to do is to move on and stop blaming yourself because at the end of the day it's gambling, anything could have happened. Having feeling of regrets made me do the mistake of revenge gambling several times trying to get back the opportunities I missed but it doesn't always work out
