I think the pain of taking a bet and losing it is more severe compared to the painful feeling of regret that comes from not risking the bets, this is because when you lose, you are at the point of two thing's which is emotional disappointment a d feelings of unlucky, and at the same time losing of your money which is double bad feelings.

But the point where the game you failed to bet on won, you only feel that you have missed a chance to make the winning, but you did not lose anything, so it much better.

in my opinion it is more about regretting taking risks and losing, sometimes players dare to take risks, the ratio is 90/10 where they bet with great risk but the clear defeat is certain to happen. and this is done because of the urge from the emotions that overflow in themselves, therefore players tend not to be able to accept when it ends in defeat.

besides that, players who take risks usually they really hope because they are in a state of despair of course I think this is natural if it makes you feel unable to accept defeat, but it shouldn't be like that. because the defeat that occurs must be something that can be accepted well.

The pain of taking the risk of betting and then losing we often experience it maybe in every gambling session we always take this risk right? Which in the end loses everything.

But regrets like you mentioned let alone changing your life from winning this is more painful because this regret will sometimes blame yourself why not bet.

For me, both are painful to feel.

To me the most painful part will be the risk to lose because I hate losing my money. That is why I will find it so painful if I lose, but that of not taking the risk and it ending up a winning of a life-changing amount I will not regret because what ever belongs to you will always be yours. That is why I will not be sad or be in regret because I know even if I take the risk of not being lucky, I will not still win.
 
So to me is a simple situation here based on the belief I have so far in gambling and that have helped me for very long in life and will keep helping me no matter what because if you have the faith that what belongs to you will always be yours then you will find it hard to be depressed when ever you fall victim to regret.

When you throw "life changing amount" in there, the regret of that will be higher. It will be more if you were all but ready to place the bet and for whatever reason did not.

This cannot be compared to the risk of losing, you will never be staking life changing amounts and the brain only factors in the amount staked during a loss and the potential winning if you do not play a game. The regret will stick around longer than the pain would.

Regret. I better do it an fail than wish I did it and won. Risk comes with a lot of learning, what does regret bring to the table ? Depression, sadness and other plethora of negative emotions. And please note, it is not just blind risk but a well thought out and calculated risk based off of thorough analysis. This calculated risk will serve as the background for the next betting experience. The most painful from my experience as a human being and gambler is regret.

[Agbamoni]

I feel regret is the most painful when it comes to gambling. Before gambling a gambler has already decided that he may win or not win the bet. This is understandable as the pain only lasts for some time if he risks it and loses the bet but when he gives heed to his doubt and does not take the risk, he may feel so angry knowing that he would have won if he had bet.

Regret in general is more painful than risk and I can relate so well to it.

Before a gambler takes risk he already knows that it's a 50/50 thing but the percentage of losing is not always the same as winning percentages. As you already knows that it's a risk and you have decided to do it, when you lose you shouldn't regret it because if by chance you win you wouldn't have regretted it. However it's only when you did something mistakenly and it resulted to lose that you can regret because it's not done intentionally.
What pains me most is when I didn't something unknowingly and it result to lose, nothing pains me more than that.

Missing out a bet that could potentially making yourself changing your life in terms of financial status which i could say that this one could hurt you but you could really be that easily be able to move on.
Why? You would really be mainly thinking that or convince yourself that bet isnt really that for you and there might be some other plans on which you could really be able to hit up other thing.
Thats why on the moment that you do find  that you arent that been able to bet then you could also be thinking that you havent loss something but we cant really be able to deny that you would really be
thinking of it for sometime specially if the amount is something life changing then who would be the one couldnt really be thinking off that way? Everyone wants to get rich and missing out opportunity would really be giving out that pain and regret.

As for the pain on taking a risks and bet and then lose then its something a pain on which most gamblers do usually that been able to experience. They are the ones who would really be that definitely be having that kind of
continous cycle and what makes them become addicted gambler in the end because of too much chasing up those loses and this is something that must be avoided on the time that you do play gambling.
Easy to say though but it would really be that hard to be done. This is why its really that important that you should really know on what you are doing and dealing with so that you would be able to act accordingl.
The common mistake for most gamblers is that they do become that too desperate on the moment or time that do engage on gambling.

I will always choose to take a risk and lose than to regret taking the risk at all especially if at the end my indecisiveness will make me lose on a winning bet or streak. What makes me a man is my ability to face my fears. Most of the time, regrets are usually as a result of lack of taking decisions which turns out to be regrets. Instead of regretting, I'll rather face my fear than allow a game or a bet pass by and regret acting on it. That's how men are born and trained to live

regret
For me it will be a painful something for someone not to predict or stick any game that he want to gamble but after everything the game happened to be the winning one I think you will feel regret over it for you no to participate for such game what I know from this is that gambling is all about luck and opportunity so when you lack the opportunity you will not be able to win in gambling so therefore opportunity is the most important thing that I see that propell in gambling winning, so winning of gambling is not all about your prediction or your seriousness in gambling but it is all about your opportunity being achieved or obtain within a short time

Which ever ways, I’m glad you already know that both options are very painful as they both have to do with losses and this question might make a lot of people go contrary to their believe and claims of them gambling for just fun because at the end of the day, the actual fun in gambling lies in winning.

Personally I don’t enjoy regrets and try as mush as possible not to make regrets but rather learn from every thing that happens to me so in other words, I would say, I say lessons as blessings and not regretting over them.
Whatever the case be, I think the pains of not gambling or betting on a game especially when you had the option of betting on them and definitely could afford to lose it.

To be considered a gambler, you'd have to take, not just a couple, but several patterns of risk; including the type that involves a higher stake on a single or double combo, all in anticipation for the better... For the most part, this is not always the case, but they'll still need to try if they really wanna secure a win.. if you ain't taking risk, how do you secure a win then?

I think I'll go with the pain and regret of refusing to risk it all - afterall, that's what you gotta do all the time... If it's a life changing amount, I might feel very sober for miscalculating and not hitting in that opportunity... That'll only happen, but to a limite; This is also the fastest way to embrace addiction.

I'd assume gamblers would be more hang up on about not taking the risk on a winning bet that could have been life changing than the risk they took on a losing bet, I mean, losing a bet is a normal occurance for a gambler so I'd assume they a more used to it by now, unless the money they used on that bet is something they couldn't afford to lose and would have dire consequences if they lose it.

The pain after losing the bet is way harder to swallow than non placing a bet and that is I think what most other gamblers will say here.For gamblers who are playing often they dream of that life changing amount but anytime they chase it they end up losing loads of money just like I did right now following that dream which honestly I think is way the devil plays tricks with us.I have to settle down,go to Church and stop thinking about that life changing event that will never come,just tell me which of the gamblers that play daily is happy with their life,if you read the chat of well reputable casinos you will see that almost no one is and I definitely have to get out of this vicious circle which is worse than the 9-5 rat race.

Not taking the bet is not as painful as you have not lost any money except imaginary one,you can feel a big regret but it is never as big as the one which you feel when you have recurring loses in all your sessions.

Many times I have seen games I wished I played but didn't play. Such situations only end in regrets and it cannot be compared to actually losing money, especially if the money is so big that I cannot afford to let go just like that. To me, losing actual money hurts more. We might be regretting not taking certain actions but if we were actually given the opportunity to do them, we might not even do them right. So why should I feel hurt over what I'm not even sure will turn out well?

There is no point getting severely hurt over money or opportunities lost while gambling. Gambling is all about winning and losing, if I lose my money or an opportunity today, there will always be another day to try again. Too much emotional attachment to our gambling life will only put too many negative thoughts in our head that will make us even get depressed. I have learnt a long time ago to always accept the outcome of any decision I make while gambling.

[Sunderland]

For me, regret not taking a risk and fail to win a life changing amount is more painful.
Because as time goes by we will forget about our losses on gambling, and I'm sure all gamblers also don't want to remember about that.
But the regret of fail to win big money/life changing money will never be forgotten, we will always remember it - that's why it hurts more than losing because of taking a risk.

Having those regrets because of missing out those bets will really be keep on haunting you or something that you cant really be able to forget. Whereas, on the time that you would be missing out those bets and you do know that the potential earning or winning you could get is something big then you would really be keeping on thinking of it until you would really be that becoming stress because of it.
Which is unlike when you do lose a bet then it is really that something that becomes normal and just like the rest been saying that you would really be just that easily forget and moved on on the moment that you would really be tending to proceed or continue on what you are doing. There are really those conditions or times that you cant forget a thing specially on missing out opportunities or missing out those conditions that you will really be potentially be  gaining up that huge amount of money that could changed up your life. This is why gut feeling could neither give out that kind of hesitance whether you would really be that proceeding on the things that you are really that dealing into or would really be trying out to skip just because you cant be able to bare up with those odds or chances to win.
The important key on here is that you should really that make use of the amount which you can afford to lose on betting, if it turns out that you are hesitated then its your choice whether you should
proceed or not.

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.
