Risk or regret? (2)

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

Risk is always going to be the most painful experience for a gambler and trust me most of the gamblers still take it to try their luck. Gambling is risky without any doubt because we are literally trying to win against house edge of a casino and that's a huge risk as there's higher chance to lose against it.

Even in sports betting there is risk that we take when placing our bets because sometimes the team that we think can perform good tends to perform so badly when we bet in their favor and in such times we don't make profits but losses if we take the risk. And losses are truly painful.

Every gambler must have understood that loosing money is part of gambling, already risking what one is able to lose and not being bothered by the outcome shows the level as to which a person understands gambling and it's risk factors. The regret from not taking a bet which ends up as the winning option would definitely have more effect, it's more like having this consciousness of what is right and yet not doing it then having ones self to blame while facing the consequences. It is better loosing a physical assets than loosing one's mental state, definitely our emotions will get tempered during the whole scene.

[Accardo]

Regret hunts our emotions for a long period. However, there's nothing to regret about not staking money on a game that later ended positively according to my predictions. Since money wasn't involved I would get over it. The pain of losing money also comes with regret, which disturbs players with numerous frustrating thoughts.

It's better to avoid taking such risks that'll take us into regrets. Because those hours spent reminiscing about the mistake wouldn't have caused any positive change. Once the gambling outcome appears, players must move ahead to something new. Living with a sad memory doesn't help us emotionally.

I won't have much pain from a missed bet. There are always opportunities to grab some other nice games and wins good rewards. So we don't have force it so we don't end up making mistakes. On the other hand, it will be painful, taking risk on a bet and at the end of the whole game we come back with nothing. That's much more painful to me. I'll just rather not take such risk that is far above my play limits or even miss the game. Even though we know that loss is inevitable when it comes to gambling but then we must be able to minimize our risks.

Risks are norms in gambling because we basically undertake unpredictable risks with the hope that we're going to win. We don't only risk our funds because the reaction of our emotions during when we wins or looses is also a risky.
To me, regrets are for greeds and irresponsible gamblers because they're either not in control of themselves or they want to walk away from the casino on compulsory huge winnings and later on they looses it all and regrets at last.
So risks can stay while regrets is eliminated.

Sometimes neither of these feelings can be completely expressed because it's some how almost equal having to face either of this experiences, regretting comes with both winning, loosing and not playing, sometimes people can win and still wish they had staked more on the game and would have won more than they had won already so it's really depending on the person who's betting at every point in time. But I think that which anyone should regret is playing a game and loosing it but not playing and it becomes a win should be a lesson and a pattern to take note of some other time.

[Odusko]

Let not get it twisted, where there is no risk, there won't be rewards, so as a gambler there is a need to take the risk as much as possible, but also we have to avoid regret as much as we can also, since both risk and regret are two different things, but the thing there is that I will not regret for not taking a bet because I have not risk anything in that order and since we have to understand what we need and what is ours which are two different things, when you risk a stake on a bet, that point you become involved with that game, but when you are not risking any money on that such a game, you will not be involved and highest is to just watch and enjoy the game and regardless of which direction the match ends you will not be overly affected by the outcome, so don't let greed deceive to regret and think that your predictions could have won you such a bet.

The pain from losing an opportunity is more for me, it's better that I followed my instincts and lost the best than I was dragging foot and lost an opportunity to hit it big.

I've had that scenario in one time friendly match between Andorra and Switzerland which I wanted to place my stakes on Andorra. I was about leaving my house for the casino when I had an August visitor. I entertained her until I forgot my mission. When I checked in it back, Andorra won with an odd of over 30.

The pain I felt that day made me see that girl as bad luck and I avoided her for a long time. I wouldn't have felt such pains if I staked on the game and it didn't convert.

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.

I think everyone one is just cut up by the same fact ; Do you know how miserable I'd see myself for refusing to wager on a game that later cuts? It's better to not have an idea at all about whatever team is playing against who, than speculating and not wagering.

I won't have much pain from a missed bet. There are always opportunities to grab some other nice games and wins good rewards. So we don't have force it so we don't end up making mistakes.

What's this mistake you speak of? When it's already a win for you cause you decided to take the risk? Or when you're hesitant about it and it later turns a big win?... This is a game of luck and chance; after making predictions and everything, with lots and lots of confidence and experience, you still gotta wait for the final results. Sometimes, the results come in favour of you, but not at the right time in the game....

There is a saying that "you will regret more for opportunities you did not take than for those you took and they went bad". This statement is so true for me and I don't know if it is for others. So, I take informed risk while hoping it become successful but where it doesn't, I will simply take it as one of those things, at least I tried my best. I know that regrets can be very painful that is why I try to ensure I don't risk so much that will make me to regret. Hence, I will not encourage anyone to take unbearable risk because that is not sustainable in gambling.

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.

The same, will consider this as a painful regret, not daring to risk a bet that already knows the victory.

I think if this happened to me then that moment would not be forgotten and always remember the incident where we did not take action on a bet that won a large amount of money that could change the life even more decent or say become rich in the bet just that we did not take the risk.

Your opinion about taking risks in gambling isn't a bad one but I think you're missing something and that's for gamblers to know the limit of their risks when gambling. It's one thing to take risks in gambling but it's absolutely a different thing for gambler to know the kind of risk he's taking and his power to manage himself when the risks fail to work in his favor. While taking a risk as a gambler, make sure you're taking a risk based on the fact that if you lose at the end, you can afford to manage the effects of your loss. Some gamblers who know little about taking risks goes miles to take unnecessary risks just because they want to belong to a league of risk takers and if they lose their money at the end, they begin to have suicidal thoughts as they can't bear the consequences of their risks. So before you take that risk make sure you can absorb the effects of your risk but if you can't, then it's totally needless to take such risk

[Churchillvv]

I live by this rule it's better to miss the bet than to lose the bet but I know deep down that the pain I will feel finding out that the bet I was supposed to use to change my life did work out but I did miss it will be more in fact so most time people do love by it as life time regret.

You might try to convince yourself that the gamble that did work out which you missed didn't get to you that much but truth be told it hurts more to predict and never bet on it when you know it would have worked out as predicted if you took the risk is more painful than missing losing the bet.

In fact, in my opinion:
loss because taking risks > regret

Because, we do not only regret because of the loss situation, but also because we really exactly lose the money. So, double painful.

But, as long as we are ready for the risk, there should be no more pain.

If regret, it is just a feeling of regret, but the money is still in hand.

Risk is the most painful experience in gambling,  especially when one gambles with the money that can't be afford to lose. It is better to regret of not playing a game that is supposed to be win, I think still having your money with you is still a win because their was never a lose. No need to regret not playing a game that was supposed to be a win. The risk in gambling is always painful that is why it is better to always play with the money that you can afford to lose. The worse feeling that can happen to any gambler is loosing the money that he never expected to lose. Regretting of not playing a game won't cause much pains.

Gambling has both pain and regret especially when you bet and if you lose the bet you will definitely feel pain and you will be mentally broken because of the loss of your bet which is the traditional rule of gambling.
But if you don't get profit by gambling or you express regret if you don't bet you are different but you remember that most profit or loss in gambling depends entirely on luck.  Whether you participate in gambling and win the jackpot is something you will never regret because if you are lucky, you will definitely win the jackpot one way or the other.

The pain of regret.

When you take the risk and bet already, that feeling is there and it will be gone immediately. Whilst the pain of regret, you might think of it so many times that you can't even sleep thinking of it.

Or, if that's just par then it will also cause you not to sleep because you'd keep on thinking about it. But that's what I think, the pain of regret lasts longer.

[mirakal]

Both can be painful. But you know what is more painful, the fact that you know you are capable to bet and may possibly win life changing profits, but you chose not to bet so you end up losing and regretting. Not taking the risk when you know you have all the chances to do it is like missing a big opportunity in your life that you know you won’t forget throughout your life. It’s okay to lose because that is inevitable in gambling but that’s never okay to lose when you know you are capable to win and make some profits.

Regret.
I like taking risks for one more shot or one more bet and then that's when I will go out. Sometimes when I am low on budget and my wallet is 10 - 20 rolls until it's depleted, I will take the risk and see if I can get lucky.
Regret on the other hand is difficult to swallow plus it will haunt you and could be your nightmare for a long time. In my opinion, risk is easier to forget than regret and I would just always pick to take the risk than regret it later. Without risk, we won't go anywhere and that's the same with life, not just gambling.

This is a very basic answer!
On which answer you lost money? It's on the risk. While on regret, you didn't put any money you, you will just found guilty from your self on not betting on it but you didn't lose money at all.
To make up your guilty from your self, just think positive and there is always a lot of opportunity to bet again and make that regret not happen again.
