if you experience a losing streak...

[Jody.Drummer]

Defeat is a certainty, no matter how good we gamble, defeat is not something that can be avoided, including consecutive defeats, which are natural, but consecutive defeats will not happen if we ourselves can stop when we have experienced one defeat in gambling because consecutive defeats occur because we continue to play even though we have experienced defeat, this may be because of curiosity that wants to win.
The option that can be done and is good to choose is to stop to rest because maybe that time is not your lucky time, and return to betting at another time when luck may be on your side. Moreover, no one forces you to continue gambling when you have experienced defeat, it is all because of your own actions.

Indeed, stop and take some rest it helps to free up your minds and if you choose to comeback you'll be coming back with a fresher mindset and the chance of making your losing streak to overturn is possible, having a clear vision and if possible to reassess your strategy and take a closer look doing your research and study about the game will help to figure it out if what approach is needed to be adjusted. It's more on your assessment and analyze to break that losing streaks that you are experiencing.

It is true what you said because gambling should be done with a clear state of mind, now when we gamble and the result is defeat and returning to gambling can make our minds more messy, feelings or emotions will lead them to destruction that may be great, we must be able to protect ourselves because no one can protect ourselves other than ourselves even though other people may give advice that comes back to us again.
Taking the bitter reality alone with defeats that occur more often and that will be obtained more often, it can be concluded that the more often gambling is done, the more defeats are obtained, unless we can stop gambling, then consecutive defeats will not occur. So don't just think about winning but also think about our safety and security and the key is in ourselves.

That's a vulnerable and traumatic stage for anyone you know.And asides taking a break, practicing self care should also be acknowledged.The emotional and mental wellbeing of such person's needs to reclaim it's stability and comfort.
Readjust the patterns, mistakes and get used to strategies that'll yield realistic results and improve your next performances.

What I didn't have at the time was the right approach to gambling. I didn't even have a clue that any strategy was required. This understanding came a few years later, but it was too late, since I had wasted a lot of money. There is a limit to everything. I had to go to the very bottom and become an example of how not to do it. Well, what can I do? At least I felt on my own skin what it's like to be someone who is not liked by others because of huge debts.

I agree with you, games will never guarantee us to win, no matter how much you research and gamble, if luck is not with you, you will never win. And those who cannot understand this and gamble without a plan or with overconfidence, they always face big losses.
So gamble with the right perspective, there is always a risk of losing in gambling, so always gamble with patience and a budget according to your ability to lose, and always follow the limits.

Gambling does involve luck and winning is what depends on luck, looking at the different types of gambling with some that depend purely on luck and some that require our own skills, both have similarities which are that they both involve luck.

The absence of certainty that you will be able to win is clear and that is not a problem, the problem is that we cannot control ourselves when gambling, such as having experienced defeat but still gambling in the hope that there will be a victory that can cover the previous losses, this is uncertain but defeat is a certainty and yes what can happen is a series of defeats.

Winnning in gambling needs luck so that will not easy to win. Even if that is difficult, that will not makes many people reduce their experiment because they want to know how it feel when they win. Though they know that they must limit their money, they still not do that because they now have a reason why they playing gambling. That makes them return to casino many times and playing different gambling games.

If they can remember how it feel when they lose too much money, they will not do the same thing because that is really pain in heir heart and head. That is why playing gambling must be careful and not in rush because that can interfere our emotion which can become high.

You should always have that kind of mindset, taking care of your budget is important as you mentioned in terms of gambling there are high chance of getting defeated than having a good outcome but as long as you fully understand how gambling works, and you are good in controlling your emotions, setting up limitation is what's important the most, it's your self-will to make that hard stop when it's needed to stop in order to avoid losing more than what you can afford to let  go.

It is an incident that you can take and make it an experience or lesson to not do the same thing again, besides that I am sure everyone who gambles if they are told to count all the money that has been allocated to gambling then they will definitely experience the same thing, namely the large amount of money they have lost in gambling and that is a natural thing in my opinion, and over time this may be briefly thought of but there is no point in remembering it.

Actually you don't need to go down to the bottom to feel it, because with the many cases that have occurred it should be a benchmark for the results when we will do the same thing as that person, you must be able to realize it yourself but with you having lost a lot of money it can be a lesson for yourself as I said above.

Aside your own personal strategy, like a way to keep yourself save and your finances save as well, there is not really much of a strategy to winning in gambling, so, if you meant strategies to help you practice all the rules that goes with responsible gambling, then you are absolutely right.

Anyways, mistakes happens, and this mistakes are sometime not deliberate, often time out of our ignorance or lack of proper knowledge of or to important information (after all, the Bible made us understand that people perish due to their lack of knowledge).
And other times, we make mistakes are results of our own greed, this i will refer to as deliberate mistake, but however, the end of it all is that we learn our lesson, helping not just us, but those around and close to us from making same mistake again.

[ImThour]

I personally do not care about a winning streak or a losing streak, it's all about the amount you were willing to wager before starting. If I have $1000 and I know I can afford to lose $100 out of that, I would simply stop after losing $100, no matter if it was my first bet of the night or a streak. That's how I would actually go in this scenario, I would suggest you to do the same. Streaks are not technical, just a fictional word of a fictional scenario.

As a result of repeated defeats, a gambler fails to think normally. At that time, emotions work so much in the gambler that they become overwhelmed even to take normal decisions. Due to which the losses increases at that time. If a gambler does not help himself in such a situation, then no one can help him. One of the reasons for this is that nowadays gamblers gamble online in secret, so no one can know about their gambling. To protect himself or to keep his emotions under control, he has to take decisions for himself. I agree that the more a gambler gambles, the more his losses will increase. Regardless of the win or loss, if the gambler does not get excited to recover and gambles within the limits, he will be able to protect himself from more losses.

No, I can't just go through this path of gambling addiction. I need to go to the very bottom to feel it myself. This gives me an understanding of how not to act and how low a person can fall. Only such a state gives the realization that a person is too weak in the face of such circumstances. That it is possible to lose everything that he had with incredible ease and in a short period of time.

Yes, of course, we are not talking about each of us, but still. No one is able to look into the future. There are other examples, but they are somewhere out there, and they did not happen to me. Only personal experience makes it clear how everything can turn out sadly.

Understanding gambling does determine what will happen to us, when we misunderstand gambling then maybe what can happen is unstable money management where finances will be spent more often on gambling. Given that gambling can affect feelings such as emotions, this is true, and it also depends on our understanding because when gambling is misunderstood it can affect our emotions to become more sensitive such as not being able to accept the defeat that occurs. Limits are indeed necessary in this case and the same is true with discipline which has an important role in gambling. For people who do not have limits or discipline that is set, it can put them in a dangerous zone. Therefore, it is better for us to be able to gamble with limits such as when we have lost, we must stop, not continue.

It ruined the balance if you misunderstand how to deal with gambling, both your time and your money can be overspend which mostly happens to those who people who don't have good control over their emotions, gambling can do affects your feelings as excitement and frustrations creates emotions and that type of emotion will possibly dominate and control you each time you play,

limiting yourself and make sure to follow whatever setup you create is very important in avoiding any unnecessarry actions as it will protect you from keep adding more money to your balance and lose it all after.

Definitely agree wit you, but you gotta understand that we all gamble for different reasons, which simply means that your reason for gambling is definitely what makes you do what you do, and it's wrong to advice other persons to do same thing you do if you don't first of all find out what their reason for gambling is to ensure it's the same reason as yours.

For example, you might have a lot of money and alot of time you Gamble, you do it for fun and don't care how much you lost because it doesn't affect your finances negatively.
While the next person is a rather poor guy looking for every means available to make money no matter how little, you don't care about long period of loses and you asking him not to also care can be a big risk to his finances, most especially with the fact that you both don't even know or see each other face to face, when he follows your advice and lands himself in a big financial mess and reaches out to you for help, you possibly will call him a scammer trying to steal from you - just a simply analogy anyway.

Best advice is for gamblers to always do what they know is best for their money.

[Ararbermas]

If you experience lose streak better to take a break and stop playing coz it will become worst if you keep pushing the same results again and again. That's a bad habit tbh . .but if you see that you can fix the results and youre positive about it then i think that's a good reason to keep goin..

It is undeniable that when we are wrong in responding to gambling, we will be addicted, which can harm us not only in terms of money, as you said with time and others, health and relationships can be destroyed if we are addicted to gambling badly. When self-control is out of control, bad things can happen to us with consequences that are so great that they can destroy our survival in the near future. Therefore, as much as possible we must be able to control ourselves when gambling, such as with our emotions that can make us forget that gambling is actually a game of probability. The only one who can save us in gambling is ourselves, so don't expect too much from gambling because it can make us forget our limits. Like betting again when you have lost because you can't accept the loss of money that has occurred, besides this behavior is also irresponsible behavior.

Yes, exactly those strategies that are related to responsible gambling. I didn't understand this for a very long time and for this reason I found myself in a deplorable situation from which I couldn't get out for a long time. I didn't know what I should do. But in fact, I needed immediate help from specialists in this field. I kept putting off the moment of contacting them, because I didn't want to admit my addiction to gambling. I didn't take into account that everything had already gone too far and it couldn't continue like this.

How many times I caught myself thinking this, but my mind kept telling me the opposite. Don't give in to the persuasion of those around me and my loved ones. They wanted to help me cope with this problem, but it didn't seem that way to me. When everything had already become so bad, I no longer had any choice.

[doomloop]

All of this are part of the scheme. The gambling platform already have a plan for targeting those vulnerable ones. If a player gets addictive in gambling platform because winning is easy for them, quick money is already planted in their mind.

That's where the emotions of a gambler will be played and those wins will definitely be used by the system to play the user. That's how losing streaks started and how people lose their minds because of the lose streak, they get depressed, and their lives are now ruined.

You make it sound like the losses of a gambler are planned beforehand by a casino, but that is not how things actually work. I know that casinos are programmed in a way that a gambler has to eventually lose to the house, but that happens if they keep gambling for the long term, and it's done through algorithms and stuff. Then there are things such as the house edge, which favors the house, and RTP, which returns a certain percentage back to the player, but after all those things, the house has to be the winner because otherwise, what's the point of the business?

Those who gamble need to understand that gambling is a business, and we know that in a business, the owner of the business has to earn profit from the business and customers are the ones who are used for that profit because customers buy and consume their products and that is how they earn profit from the business. In gambling, we are the customers, and casinos are the owners of the business, so we should expect them to be profitable at the end and not ourselves.

From experience the best way to get out of that mental trap of a losing streak is to quit or take a short break. Every gambler has gone through this phase and we can all agree that it can distabilize your emotions especially when you are losing a lot of money, and having such mental breakdowns can lead to a whole of negative outcomes, some gamblers can go as far as chasing their losses till they have nothing left. You must accept the fact that incurring losses is also part of the game, you can't always win everytime but if you end up losing more than you win maybe you should just focus on something else.

[Onyeeze]

I have another question...

Every gambler has experienced a losing streak, so I’m curious - how do you handle it?

every gambler knows that losing or meaning is constant in the gambling and that is the experience and for them to overcome losing that we touch them all that to make them to be depressed is for them to bet what they can afford to lose but a process whereby they are the kind of gamblers Who Don't Bet what you can afford to lose that today he lost in gambling will be a nightmare that is why I can agree with you that every gambler has its own experience in gambling so I believe that be able to pay our own experience in in the gambling so that others will learn from it

Will not be like that, every gamblers does have experience and they can also see every experience and also the solutions made by others but not necessarily they can learn and try to have the right approach to every bad result that occurs, there will be gamblers who always make the same mistakes every time.
For those who only care about profit money or winning, they must chase losses when experiencing consecutive lost, this is natural attitude to do even though it is highly discouraged, the only best thing in dealing with consecutive lost is to stop gambling for while and try to stay in control.

even though the person stop gambling the person most experienced loses when it comes back to gamble, the best thing to do is to know the proper thing to do, so the best thing to do in the gambling is to ensure that they gamble with what they can afford to lose, and also have a daily limit in gambling or weekly limit in the gambling so that they will not be losing much, people do not gamble with what they can afford to lose, that has been the problem of people that participate in the gambling, so we need to understand some certain concepts of gambling  and many people do talk about  it and it's real, we have to understand that gambling we can control gamble if we feel like to control some of our decisions in the gambling that leads us into lost some time, we can avoid them.

That's the right words; it's like a "mental trap" because when we're on a losing streak, there's something that tells us to deposit more and try to recover our losses, and of course, even if we still have money, although it's no longer intended for gambling, we'll be tempted to gamble and try to recoup everything, and even when we reach that level, we still don't feel any satisfaction because our greed only grows.

It only takes discipline fellow to battle and win in this kind of situations, if you aren't strong enough to withstand the pressure that comes from consistent loses, you will likely deposit all the money you had just to recover your funds which isn't possible because that is already been done under emotional constraints. I can only say that, underage are not supposed to be allowed or rather be restricted from gambling because it may ruin their financial status.

In my country, above 18 are allowed to participate in gambling and even drinking. These little lads can't control and discipline themselves when this pressure comes.
