I am currently on 1 week losing streak in sports betting..

[Furious 7]

Majority of gamblers know that before they can get another win is not certain that is why they always try to bet again and again even if they are losing so don't give up even in your lowest level of losing because you may not know when you are going to hit the jackpot in gambling

That may be good but it can also have a big impact as we become overly ambitious with our fighting activities. Instead of continuing to try I actually prefer to stop for a while and do it at a later time because in the end continuing to try in a condition that is difficult to do gambling in force will only make our condition much worse because the gambling that we do aside from just making our emotions bigger, this can also make you forget where you set your limits in gambling.

Instead of taking greater risks to keep trying, it is better to hold back and let ourselves be calmer so that what we do is not rushed because it could be that the defeat that continues to occur is precisely because we are in a hurry which makes the bets we make not optimal because our thoughts are only on winning not based on research for the probability of winning.

Re: I am currently on 1 week losing streak in sports betting..

It's been more than a week now OP. I wonder what's the status of your streak right now.
Did you recover from your losing streak already and got some wins already? Or the streak continues which is quite unfortunate.

This is one of the fallacies these gamblers are thinking that's why their lives are being affected in a negative way.

They have this thinking of "I'll just continue to bet hoping to recover those losses or at least make some money." There are some gamblers out there that are spending thousands of dollars only to win a few hundred dollars. Not giving up on gambling for me is the one that I will not recommend for others to do. I believe that sometimes, stopping is better not financially, but mentally. Incurring more and more losses will affect you negatively hence, affecting you mentally as well and it might cause depression on the gambler.

Nomatter how we set our minds upon gamble gambling for profits of fun, as long we have always experience consecutive loosing, very sure that you would get to that emotional effect because we are all chasing what we have not been able to catch it.

This is why it is advice able to always gamble with what we can afford to loo.

Actually, what we need is not to convince ourselves to continue gambling again, but what we need to do is take a break for our brains to rest. Whether it's in slot gambling or sports betting, if it has ended in defeat, then it's best not to continue the gambling session by re-depositing money and betting it again and no matter how much money you have, it won't guarantee you can win because all gambling involves luck.

We must be able to gamble with the aim of something fun, but continuing the gambling session in my opinion is beyond the concept of fun gambling, because if it's like that, it might be more appropriate to pursue victory.

I do not know anyone who would be having fun if he was continuously losing. If anything, losing should demotivate someone. Because frustration and the constant loss of money is something that is hard to bear. But I guess some people really are eager to win that they would not want to give up and keep trying. But sometimes too  much eagerness keeps someone from thinking logically so just take a deep breath and take a break.

Yes, that is right because our minds will telling us to keep playing gambling and trying to recover our money. But our emotion become not stable so that can lead us to use more money which can make us losses more. We need to know that playing gambling needs to be moderately so we don't lose much money while we can also enjoy the game as a fun activity.

Only gamble with what we can afford to lose is the best advice for all gamblers so we must always remember that.

Emotional will still be there when experiencing consecutive lost even though we have the goals of having fun in every bet, it is very natural because emotions are natural human attitude and we are given thoughts to feelings to be able to control them, everyone will definitely experience an increase in emotions but not everyone can control it.

Sometimes when seeing very good opportunity can make someone braver and have too much confidence so that they spend more money even beyond the acceptable limit to lose, if you are fairly active gambler I sure you can understand and have experienced the same conditions as what I said.

Basically yes we can not lie that losing money is an unpleasant situation, but in any case gambling will always be an activity about winning and losing, whatever you do will not be able to make you win more than you lose, or what is meant is you can win but you can also lose and not infrequently defeat occurs much more often than victory, meaning gambling for fun is not seen from how often you lose but rather from the excitement of the game you play.

What is meant by gambling for entertainment does not see whether the result is a win or a loss, for me the increase in dopamine, adrenaline from the sensation I get when I play is what makes me feel happy regardless of the result and when it turns out that in the end I win then I usually consider it a bonus.

Because in this case logic kicks in, if I had a situation in which I had only lost for a whole week, then I would think that this losing streak cannot last forever and everything should change for the better soon. I think that the OP's previous experience can also be important, if he has already had such losing streaks, then we can assume that they will happen in the future.

It is right, but not always. If you play for fun, or try to return lost money, making new bets - yes, you need to stop for some time. The chance of mistake grows up seriously in such situation.
But if you bet for profit - you ought to continue the game. Of course without emotions, just as it was planned, without changing bet size or making additional bets, betting only analyzed events.

You would really be that emotional when you do lose up money because we dont like on losing money and this is something that you should really be that mainly be feeling out because we are just humans. On the moment or time that you do lose money then you will really be having that that huge problem at the moment or time that you would be losing up control. Having that 1 week losing streak is already that too long i should say before you have considered on quitting up. Whenever you do experience 2 or 3 days then this is the best time that you should be having a break at least because having that losing situation will be making you desperate and you will be that thinking that if you have been able to make up some loses then your next move or bet will might be that a win and this is something that will be coming up into your mind. This is why gamblers or bettors will be neither be losing or winning basing up on the luck factor on which we know that this is something that you do mainly needing up for you to win up.

Everyone gambles with the aim of making money or wanting to win because this is where the point of pleasure will occur, but that doesn't mean we have to chase victory in gambling because that is not a good thing to do, we have to be able to balance everything well so that unwanted things don't happen, if the gambling that is done has ended in defeat then we should stop and do something else that can make our minds calmer.

I agree that gambling can affect our own emotions, but it also depends on ourselves because if we ourselves have set limits then there will be no emotions that are provoked. This exploding emotion occurs when we gamble with a mistake, such as not being able to accept the loss of the money that is at stake.

That is normal if we think like that because losing in a whole week can make us thinks that we can turn the situation in the next week so we will keep trying to playing gambling. We want to recover our losses by keep playing gambling and will not thinks that can make us get bigger losses. Our logic will change and make us get deeper in gambling and can not think clearly of what we do. What @OP experienced before is a lesson for all of us not to try like him and need to take a break for a while after lose some money.

If we don`t play for stable profit, the problem is not a lose streak. It looks like gambling addiction to play day by day and try to win. I even don`t have time just to visit online casino every day. And it is only about time. I don`t talk about everyday money, spent for it. It would be better even to play some computer game with the same result(it is not good idea, but even such way much better everyday losing).

Addiction has been one of the reasons why we keep having gamblers complaining of not make money from betting. Everyone must understand that making from betting takes extra consciousness and risk management set aside for a better gambling activities. When a gambler gambles too much, sometimes you might not know what is actually wrong and keep complaining of not getting profits from several bets you have taken. Taking less bets is one of the ways to control your gambling activities.
Addiction will always come when you keep putting too much effort just for the sake of making profits from the market. Every gambler needs to keep taking a rest from gambling as after some few attempts to make profits without any success.

There are gambler who can keep their composure even they've suffer on a long losing streaks knowing that the allocated budget are the same, though it's tough to keep that emotion and stay positive since chances that your adrenaline already increase when your frustration increases a lot.

You need to keep that calmness and keep that budget to stay at it is, the time you increase the amount of your balance the more you'll get aggressive which might lead you to follow your emotion instead of doing your usual way of researching and finding better odds and better chance of winning, you might just bet even in the game that you don't really understand.

[Victorybit1]

I don't believe in winning streaks and losing streaks in the sense that they happen because the Universe wants them to happen and it wasn't my fault and the consequence of wrong selections. Every time I gamble, I do it as a way to have fun. If in that process I also earn a bit of money, then it's great. If not, I will try to do better next time. There is no rage or disappointment, and I am surely not going to play more than I intended in an attempt to recover my losses. 

I like this point you made, there's absolutely nothing universal or destiny in gambling, it's all about luck and timing, sometimes you might have winnings unexpectedly. That's why I don't beat myself up when my bets don't go according to my prediction, some gamblers end up regretting and grieving about not Making the right selections. No one is a robot, even robots can't tell whats going to happen in the future. What we do is simply to predict and watch how it goes. Taking it too personal can create an obsession in the mind and it can lead to a whole lot of irrational decisions.

You can play gambling for fun and not for profit because making a profit from gambling is not easy and you can spend too much money without have a big chance to win. Besides that, you can get addicted to gambling especially if you don't have a good self control because gambling can tempts you easily and makes you keep playing gambling. Yes, that will be looks like gambling addiction as you want to keep playing gambling without thinks about stop gambling for a while. If you already lose some money or lose streak, you must stop gambling immediately and take a rest for some days to calm down yourself because of your losses.

As for me, i don`t get fun from stable losing Two limits can save everybody from the serious losing, but it is not for everyday gambling as for me. Everyday gambling looks like a problem itself. Of course all people differs, but it is at least dangerous.

There are gambler who can keep their composure even they've suffer on a long losing streaks knowing that the allocated budget are the same, though it's tough to keep that emotion and stay positive since chances that your adrenaline already increase when your frustration increases a lot.

You need to keep that calmness and keep that budget to stay at it is, the time you increase the amount of your balance the more you'll get aggressive which might lead you to follow your emotion instead of doing your usual way of researching and finding better odds and better chance of winning, you might just bet even in the game that you don't really understand.

It is about money management. May be also about risk management. It is rather difficult if you play for fun but it is right decision. The only problem to remember about it during lose streak.

You can play gambling for fun and not for profit because making a profit from gambling is not easy and you can spend too much money without have a big chance to win. Besides that, you can get addicted to gambling especially if you don't have a good self control because gambling can tempts you easily and makes you keep playing gambling. Yes, that will be looks like gambling addiction as you want to keep playing gambling without thinks about stop gambling for a while.

When i play for fun i have two magical limits. Money limit and time limit. When i reach one of them i stop. And it is not a problem to lose some money. I pay for emotions, it is like visit football match. Your team can lose or win, but you anyway buy the ticket and watch the show.

Of course the decision taken is to rest for moment before deciding to bet again, resting will give feeling of calm and emotional stability, after that when mind is clear and mood is calm, it can have good impact such as when analyzing and predicting with mind cold until it feels easier to have the right prediction results.
However, there will always be gamblers who always make mistakes, there will always be people who ignore the risks and it is impossible to eliminate them all, moreover gambling has certain influence on each individual.
