5 Things to do After a Huge Loss in Gambling.

[Promocodeudo]

It's better to just step away from the game itself for a few days and see how it goes. I know that feeling though, last week I lost some big money, for two straight days, and whenever I played after that, I still take a big L.

So I said to myself, that I need to slow down for now, as I'm having a unlucky week. That's why I do for now, although I'm tempted to play because online games are accessible, I try as hard as I can to not to as the damage is going to be too emotional for me. The money yeah, you can recover if, but the psychological tear is killing me.

This is a good approach you took here but the thing is that it may be very difficult for some people to do this, you were just very disciplined to realized that it is time to take a break since you have noticed that things weren't going your way, if it were to be some people they would have gone the negative way thinking that such is an opportunity for them to win, most gamblers don't see taking a break as an option rather the see it as a sign of weakness because they feel that once they are on break, they might have loss the opportunity to win big, these set of persons forget that what they see as opportunity is an easy way to go into extreme addiction itself, am happy that there are people like you who understand the concept of gambling and are ready to abide by the rules in other not to go astray, if every gambler can avoid chasing loss as you do then gambling would have been a wonderful event, though it is, is just that some persons dont apply discipline and self control when gambling.

I think the most important thing is to stay calm. Second, do not think about the loss. If you think about the money you lost, unhappiness increases and the person starts to suffer psychologically.

A person should gamble with money that they will not be upset about losing, but this situation may change over time.
If they are not going to gamble again, they may definitely need to see a psychologist.
Because gambling is a kind of disease.

Gambling for pleasure is something that we aim for before getting caught up in addiction, I think there is a thin line between pleasure and also loss in gambling, so when looking for pleasure in gambling just it will often make us experience a greater risk than the pleasure we get, what you said I actually ever experienced when I lost money in gambling,  I tried to forget the loss of money, but actually our minds forced us to keep remembering it, because it is not easy to forget losses, especially in large amounts, but these losses have actually given me lessons so far to be more responsible in terms of finances including gambling.

You wouldn't forget about your losses easily when you use huge amounts of money to gamble, especially, funds for something important. This is because when the need of that funds arises, the funds will not be available for its purpose and that will become a big problem on you. You might get frustrated, if you are unable to get an alternative means to raise the funds. Only gamble with an amount of money that you can afford to lose so that you can control your emotions.

Calming ourselves will be better after huge loss but it is not easy as our minds will not stop telling us to return to the games and trying to recover our lost. That is why you need to have strong control to block your minds that keeps telling you to continue playing the gambling games. You will difficult to win the games especially when in your heart have a big hopes to recover your losses. That is not a hopes but that is turn becomes a thing that makes you difficult to stop yourself from gambling.

That is why someone must use the money he can afford to lose in gambling so he can stop himself and not thinks about recovering his lost. He must control his minds and stop gambling immediately will be better.

I think the most important thing is to stay calm. Second, do not think about the loss. If you think about the money you lost, unhappiness increases and the person starts to suffer psychologically.

It's hard to implement these things for a gambler.
First, it's hard to stay calm especially if the money that you used for gambling and lost was intended for a more important thing like expenses or paying bills.
Second, not thinking about the loss is also hard. Unless you're a rich man who doesn't care about losing money in gambling, there will be a point in their life where they will think about the losses.

Well, these are just temporary emotions and at some point, you will just move on and move forward and make better decisions. Those who will not move on from these emotions will lead to stress then anxiety and they will be depressed.

A person should gamble with money that they will not be upset about losing, but this situation may change over time.
If they are not going to gamble again, they may definitely need to see a psychologist.

In investing, we always say "Invest what we can afford to lose" but we know that this is hard to do especially if we feel that we can make a lot of money by investing into crypto, there will be a time where we are forced to invest money that we can't afford to lose just to chase those potential profits. It's the same with gambling. Sometimes, we tend to spend money that we can't afford to lose because we chase those profits that we might get.

As for gambling is a disease, it would be better to elaborate this even further.

I would be very careful with advice "tell someone". A lot of people dont bother about other people's problems and gambling has such a reputation, that a probability that someone will help and not turn his back is low. I believe that people are very proud and scared on the same time to ask for a help or to share something private. If a gambler asks for help and the other persons refuses to help, that gambler might never ever be open with others or ask for help again. Because of that, such advice can help, but can also make things worse.

[nara1892]

All the points you have made are true, but the point is that I think self-acceptance regarding the defeat that has been experienced all depends on what they are looking for in gambling, because if for example from the start they gamble with the aim of seeking victory then it is useless all the advice you give they will never be able to follow because they will definitely not be able to control their emotions over the defeat they experience.

So the point is that I think the response and reaction that will occur in a gambler when they experience defeat will depend on what their purpose is in gambling and how they understand it, because if for example from the start they have the right understanding then without you telling them they will definitely know what they should do when they are in a losing situation.

IMO that's for sure, I mean I'm sure what you said is true that when a gambler bets using an amount that exceeds his ability or an amount that is too large or an amount for other needs in his life that is quite important then it will be very difficult for him to accept the state of defeat when luck really doesn't come at that time. This is also the reason why we are always advised to apply limits when gambling, none other than so that we avoid the possibility of significant emotions and also avoid losing excessive amounts of money, that's actually why limits and self-control are always recommended, because we usually see when gamblers cannot apply limits and gamble as they please in the end they lose a lot of money and experience mental and psychological problems due to the pressure they feel inside.

Many players worsen their psychological state after a big loss in gambling because of comparing themselves with other (more successful) players. Comparing yourself with other people is usually a very bad strategy in principle. Comparing yourself with other people causes strong emotions in a person, and strong emotions (in turn) lead a person to irrational behavior.

Each person competes primarily with himself. It is also very important that your income is higher than your expenses (that is, that you make a profit). This is a universal principle that it is advisable to always adhere to. You need to receive more than you give.

Another thing is that we exist in a competitive environment and it is advisable, at a minimum, to learn from other people.

If observing the success of other people does not cause strong emotions, then observing the tactics and strategy of other players is useful. This will help you achieve greater success in gambling (and restore your psychological state after a big loss).

This can happen, for example, when watching successful streamers, although in fact some casinos can give them a fake account on which they can play and pass it off as real money. And many viewers and players will compare themselves to such a streamer. It turns out that you can’t compare yourself to everyone, but only somehow make sure that the player has a real account. Generally speaking, sometimes you need to stop to comprehend everything without unnecessary thoughts, try to think rationally, although this is really difficult to do. But if you don’t strive for something better, then why play at all.

You are right folks need to stop comparing themselves with others , especially what they encounter via internet when it comes to Gambling, because have seen alot of people showcasing, their gambling wins online making people to think that gambling is like a forms of getting rich quick, just by hitting the jackpot. Folks need to start thinking rationally when it comes to gambling, because if gambling was that easy why's people not making it every single day . So there's no getting rich quick in gambling rather take it as something you do for fun.

My first advise on someone who already had a massive loss gambling is to take some rest, this is not with the aim of punishing him, but in other for him to be able to have time in getting over it, knowing the cause as well as taking a precautionary measure that can curb or stop any future reoccurrence, the predicament on such gambler shouldn't have been much if he had practice the strategy of gambling on the among one can afford to lose.

Most people don't really know when to stop gambling because if they do, they won't incur so many losses. Taking a break for some time or some days in gambling is very important even when you just won recently because it helps you save some money that you could have just lost at a go and also gives you the ease of not gambling under pressure because as soon as you are losing in gambling, you can start panicking which can lead you to start placing unnecessary bets or betting without an understanding of the option you are choosing for the particular game you wish to stake on. Gambling doesn't end which means that if you don't bet today, you can bet tomorrow but some people bet with so much aggression as if they don't bet, they will fall sick or lose something it's a very wrong approach to gambling.

have you not noticed that many people who participate in gambling and win from their gambling that does not expose the method the use to win in gambling to other people but I don't know why it's like that to most of the gamblers and any Gambler is he doing that I believe that person is a greedy,  so I believe participating in the gambling you need to know that  the wining is out of chance and if you can recall the method some use to win in gambling, I believe that you can do the same, and doing same might not work out for you. That's why gambling never be a skill.

This is a good approach you took here but the thing is that it may be very difficult for some people to do this, you were just very disciplined to realized that it is time to take a break since you have noticed that things weren't going your way, if it were to be some people they would have gone the negative way thinking that such is an opportunity for them to win, most gamblers don't see taking a break as an option rather the see it as a sign of weakness because they feel that once they are on break, they might have loss the opportunity to win big, these set of persons forget that what they see as opportunity is an easy way to go into extreme addiction itself, am happy that there are people like you who understand the concept of gambling and are ready to abide by the rules in other not to go astray, if every gambler can avoid chasing loss as you do then gambling would have been a wonderful event, though it is, is just that some persons dont apply discipline and self control when gambling.

The importance of self-control is one way for us to stay sane and think rationally even if we are in a state of heavy defeat in the game. So in the end we have to maintain that control so that we are not affected by the ambition to recover losses because it is precisely a situation that makes you even more devastated if it is still done.

Loss is a certain thing in gambling so we must realize this from the beginning so that when we lose in gambling, we know that indeed defeat is part of the risk that we will accept when we play gambling.
But as you said, there will not be many people who will be able to withstand it because indeed on average when we have lost the situation sometimes becomes complicated because indeed we always think about how we return to gambling and restore the previous losses we received.

Well, the first two tips are exclusively for women. Sobbing, hysterical and then telling everything, complaining about fate. I disagree with these 1 and 2. Moreover, I do not agree with advice 4, which means recognizing that the player needs help, which means he is sick.

Seriously how you think the first two tips are basically exclusive to women but you're forgetting the fact that you find 10% of women that gambling and they are far better than men in keeping things within but mostimes when a n generate a huge loss in gambling he definitely find it hard to accept his losses and will want to tell people around his defeat, so I believe every tips here is necessary.

For me, I don't give them advice but rather let them discover their wrongdoings. Many gamblers never find it wrong until they experience problems and huge financial losses. We let them grow old and become smart gamblers on their own because no matter how hard we tried to remind them, it still wouldn't get into their minds. In fact, we have been spreading information and advice already, yet many gamblers still lose their minds and fall into addiction. 

People don't get it until they see it personally in their life.

I think the most important thing is to stay calm. Second, do not think about the loss. If you think about the money you lost, unhappiness increases and the person starts to suffer psychologically.

It's hard not to think about the losses when we've just gambled and took some loss. But I agree that it might be helpful for someone not to think that much and remain calm.

Staying calm is hard.

And taking more losses and accepting them is hard too. But when you're not able to stabilize the situation because of your losses, that will give you a harder situation to deal with.

It depends on the gambler. Some of them will accept advices and hints from more experienced gamblers, while others will be stubborn to insist on commiting mistakes until they finally learn by themselves. It's good to help people who are willing to be helped. If there is an opportunity for an approach there isn't any problems in advising them, so they can avoid passing through the same bad ways other gamblers did, due to ignorance.

I just don't advise gamblers when they aren't willing to listen to me. Then I respect their decision and don't waste my time, because they have already made their choice, and aren't open minded about changing it any time soon. In other words: they chose to learn through the hard and painful way, so let it be!
