5 Things to do After a Huge Loss in Gambling.

[Fredomago]

Better to accept that reality and move forward, if it's needed for you to move away from gambling then do so, as it saves you a lot including your relationships with those people who cares for you, take things as a hard lesson to learn after suffering, there are things that you need to consider and you need to face along the way, no need to turn your back and retry your luck if you already lose a huge amount as it can be repeated if you push your way and it's more unhealthy if you suffer another big loses..

After a big loss (or when you lose your deposit) there is a regret to leave gambling, and you just want to relax without betting, but most often after a few weeks or months there is a desire to return again. I do not think that this is an addiction that I can not give up, I just like it and even when I do not bet I still continue to follow the teams, so I am aware of things and can always return.

That usually works for those that have strong self-control, and same time it also helps to build strong self-control, staying without gambling for a while after experiencing some losses , because some folks can get emotional and start losing more due to the act of chasing or running after losses , but if you can restrict yourself from that and stop for a while to get your head straight, like going out to take some air or try doing other activities before going back.

Agree to that, it will developed your self control, if you can just hold on and not to add more but still monitoring the movements of the team that you are supporting, you can have a betterview as you are well aware of what they are capable, once you have spare money you can allocate it and start betting back, it won't triggered any addiction as you managed to control not to add money after suffering from a defeat but still monitoring.

When they loses 5/6 times in a row, usually they becomes worry and desperate with their losses. They want to recover their losses by keeping playing gambling and chase the win. But they forgot that what they do will only gives them more losses because they play with a hurry and not limit their money and even some of them  increase their bet as they think that will gives the big wins. But that will not always happen as they want because they will difficult to win big even they use big bet.

If they already lost for some time, it is better they stop their gambling activities and leave the site to calm down their minds. With leaving the site, they can take a deep breath and thinks how their gambling activity for that day. If they think that it is bad, they must not playing gambling for some days to recover their minds.

You are right and I agree with you that when any person loses 5/6 times in a row becomes desperate about their loss and becomes too greedy and/or tries to gamble too fast and as much money as they have to recover all the losses in a single bet if the gambling site has the limit and finally might be the loser of the gambling.

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.

Losing a huge amount of money through gambling games can be very threatening and challenging,and it's obviously very impossible to recover the said money back.Thats why they'd always advice to seek professional counselling from gambling support services.
Generally,the best remedy for addiction is to gradually withdraw from gambling and clear your mind.Your mental health would have been stressed and stretched.So realx and refrain from gambling till further notice.

Accepting the loss might be the hardest part of all. There are times we won't stop as long as we still have the money for more deposits. Honestly, I have been in a situation like that and I did think I can come back from all my losses but sadly I didn't. Although, I am thankful I didn't go zero and just accepted that I cannot get back the money that I lost.
We must be prepared with that and I think we can become better gambler if we do believe that we aren't going to win against the house. We can easily quit by using that belief and take the day off or a week off in gambling afterwards.

Accepting the loss is the most important thing to do, other points you made are also valid, but the first one cannot be overemphasized on. You must learn to move on from what has happened because you can't do anything to change the past but you can take actions that would shape your future. Regretting the decisions you made would only lead to you Making more mistakes because you might be tempted to start chasing your losses to get back what you have lost. Remember you can't get back what you have lost by gambling more, the earlier you accept this the better.

Yes, that's true, gambling is an activity in which the result is mostly based on luck and it comes with either a win or a lose. Anyone that wants to venture into gambling newly, must be aware of all these and they must be ready to accept the losses which is usually more frequent. Every gambler must be willing to accept losses and move on easily.

I agree with you that accepting loss is the first thing that we must accept, knowingly or unknowingly; there are no other exceptions. If we can't accept the loss and if we lose in gambling, then it will be a headache, which may insist on us betting more and more to recover all the funds on a single bet, which will turn us into a huge loss, and we can't afford that loss, either.

Yes, that's the right way of dealing with this, but it's of course difficult to achieve.

I think most gambler know this, but it is simply too hard.

It's like knowing that you need to eat less to become less fat, but actually doing it is the hard part...

We get it.
It is very hard. But you do need to repeat it three times . I could have easily let it go but I can't resist. You have just repeated the same message (which has been repeated hundreds of times already) thrice. . You are an established and reputed member here this is not expected from you. I apologize if sounded rude, just doing my part.

That is so true.

The tricky thing is that the mind of the gambler is saying that they can recover their money if they bet one more time.

When the "solution" becomes the problem, then a feedback loop has been created and an addiction is born.

It's quite difficult to escape a situation like that.

Addiction is no different from a vicious circle that is wrapped around and requires very hard and big effort to will be free, getting out of gambling addiction is not an easy thing and it is better for us to avoid and not get caught up in it from the beginning, gambling is an activity that have a very big risk but if we can manage gambling well and also responsibly, of course gambling can be fun,  But for some people, gambling is the main source of income, so it actually provides motivation and also thoughts for them to continue to try to win even by chasing defeats that has occurred previously.

Yeah, might as well just give up all the losses and forget about it if we can. I know it will be hard to stop thinking about it but we must do it or else we might lose more if we continue gambling without even controlling ourselves.
It's self-destruction in the process and we will have more problems financially if we keep on doing this kind of method. It's not healthy in both mentally and physically as stress eats our brains.
What we can only do is accept the defeat. Give it a day or two of rest and maybe we will feel better after that.

Anytime we incur loss in gambling or anywhere it always hurt but the hurt and how you will think about will depend on the amount of money that is been loss and this is the reason why they said we should endeavor to use what we can afford to lose or let go and if we use what we can afford to lose the pain we will have whenever we lose will not be the same with with pains we will have if we play with big amount of money. And just like you said, whenever you have make loss the brain experience some level of stress and depression that will make the body to be weak and sometimes it can result to sickness.

Gambling implies that losing happens as often or even more often than winning. The main mistake of gamblers is that they do not understand this simple rule and try to win back instead of accepting the loss and moving on. The same happens with traders who do not close a losing position and continue to average it out in the hope of getting at least zero. This very often leads to even greater losses.

I want to add that the moment a person plays, loses and then spends hours thinking about that game he lost and the amount of money he lost, then that person has a gambling problem and needs to stop playing once and for all very urgently. Gambling should be seen as entertainment, it will never be a source of income. So if a person plays and loses, he cannot be sad, because the objective of the game was not to win money, but to have fun while playing.

[Btcdeybodi]

Being desperate to recover losses has thrown many gamblers into a state of addiction because the more they try to recover, the more time they create for gambling and the more money they stake which doesn't really end well because it makes a gambler to gamble with provocation from the losses and when they try to gamble aggressively it still trap them to more losses that is why going after losses is dangerous instead the best could have just been by taking a break and trying again some other time because it will save you money and time you could have spent in gambling which could have probably led you into addiction.

This is bad and also the fastest ticket to losing everything left. Some gamblers may be more desperate to even redeposit after losing all their backroll, but this is foolishness, it has not had a positive ending for most gamblers. We should take a break after some losing streaks and I don't think we should ever allow our losing streaks to be up to 5/6 before realising that things are wrong. Taking breaks is a good practice in gambling and no one is heroic in persistent losing. However, failing today to try to gain the next day with a refreshed and reset mind is better.

Firstly, the bankroll should be divided into several parts, which we deposit into the casino only as one part is lost, and it is clear that this should not be done in one day. Secondly, I would like players to think about a possible problem even before this huge loss, so that later they do not have to think about how to survive this loss. It is necessary to make a number of rules that cannot be violated in order to exclude a huge loss. As they say, it is better to do prevention than to treat diseases, I think the same should be applied in gambling...

It only takes good understanding of gambling for one to let go the lose, if there is no understanding in gambling it is very difficult to let the lose go and to stop playing. And at this point one would think if continuing to play money can be recovered by winning, but there are huge chances of losing again if one continues playing .

The reason why it is difficult for some people to stop playing is because of greed, it makes one to feel it is not enough for one to stop playing and gives one much confidence all money that have been used to gamble will be gotten back at the end.

When desperation kicks in then this is the moment or time that it will really be the hardest for you to stop yourself on doing such act specially at the moment that you are on a losing situation. The primary thing that comes up into your mind is on how you would be able to recover those loses back and this is what you do have in mind primarily on which if you have seen yourself having that still some funds into your pocket or wallet account then you would definitely be doing such act. If you would be that lucky then you might be able to pull it off but if you would be still that opposite then loses will dig down even more further and thats what you should be thinking up earlier. If you cant afford anymore loses then it will be just that sensible that you should stop and call it a day rather than on forcing yourself to play even more because it will be causing up that disastrous situation on which it might leading up into those in depth regrets that you will be able to feel later on.

Huge loses could be that as highly as destructive at the moment that you have lost all of you life savings and what comes worst that even on the amount that you are earning on monthly basis had been that totally been spend up on gambling and adding up the potential loan and borrowed money that you have done earlier on which it makes the situation that more even severe. Its really that important to have that set limits because at the moment that you cant be able to control your emotions or mindset then be prepared on whats to come.

You need to set your mind that whatever happens you'll be moving forward to your next goal, don't engage if you are not ready or if you don't have a good discipline in terms of controlling your emotions, those kinds of relative factors that will help you to prevent getting hook and getting addicted.

You must learn things accordingly and with experienced you'll be able to create good strategy to avoid being caught between your emotions and your finances, it's tough to control once you already addicted to it.
