Who is in position to feel the regret?

[Darker45]

Isn't the feeling of regret subjective? I guess it's hard to tell who exactly between you and your friend is regretting more, but I assume both of you are missing something significant and therefore regret.

If I were in both positions, I think I'd regret more if I got nothing because I didn't cash out than I got a smaller win because I cashed out. At least with the latter I still won, only that it's smaller. Whereas by not cashing out, you not only missed a profit, you actually lost.

[EluguHcman]

When your friend complains, I think he's exaggerating. He should be thankful that at least by cashing out he was able to make a profit and thus be able to place more bets without spending more of his bankroll. While in your case, having lost everything, you'll have to put money from your bankroll into betting.

You are absolutely right. Maybe I should consider greeds in-between just as said that my friend should be thankful for atleast he made some cash out but instead, he feels bad just because he could not take the whole profits as the outcome of the game summary went successful as he predicted.

While in my own case, I also believe I have some touches of greed too though or I should say I am just one of the risk bearers that is under control of my emotions so I don't rush cashing out just as  exhibited. But to be sincere, if I have made the least cash out as my friend, I think I should be feeling better than now because I can still feel that regret of missing the cashout when I had the chance.

So I am to ask, between me and my friend who is in position to feel this regrets regarded that I won nothing and he made some cash out ?

You will sure be the one to regret most because you had an opportunity to cash out but didn't and lost everything but your friend still cash out some money, his regret was only that he didn't win the full amount since he cashed out half way. I have raised this topic of the cashout feature being a kind of distraction and a way to manipulate gamblers from achieving a full win but on a second thought i found reason why the cash out option is very helpful. To you that didn't cash out, you can only pretend as though you are not pained but inside you are having the regret already. The strategy to use in other to play smart is to bet same games in two separate slips, one will be used for cash out while the other ticket will be left to run till all of the events have finished playing, if you make use of this strategy you won't miss out on a huge win due to the idea of a cash out.

Yes. He should be thankful that he's still got some money after that cash out. Because not all gamblers do that and worse comes to them that they get nothing because of how they decide.

We might think that it's a bad decision to cash out and take some profits even if we've got a chance to win the entire thing. Battles don't have to be won like that when you can take your money, be happy with that and go gamble again some time.

it is not a black and white situation no one has more right to feel regret because we never really know how a person truly feels unless we are in their shoes and of course there is no way of knowing that

If I were in both positions, I think I'd regret more if I got nothing because I didn't cash out than I got a smaller win because I cashed out. At least with the latter I still won, only that it's smaller. Whereas by not cashing out, you not only missed a profit, you actually lost.

i think everyone has the same answer but if you are content with life and you are not chasing money you will not be dwelling on this so much

Both of you.

You have reasons to feel regretful and that’s already enough to feel that way. Your friend missed a big win even if he managed to to take some profit while you on the other hand lose everything while you have the opportunity to cashout.

Your case is just more painful because you lose everything including your bankroll.

Personally, I think the second position would be more regrettable compared to the first one because if you had the opportunity to cashout and you ended up taking zero profits you would feel really bad, this is going to be different from when you actually got something. Both of them"  to me isnt really a good answer. Anyone that regrets after cashing out an amount of money bigger than his stake is greedy

Maybe op is also connected to the bet and was expecting something out of the game too as well, who knows. The pain affected both friends.

I hate the fact the players be saying, they regret for not getting the full amount when cashing out, it's be bad when all lost and nothing in return, that's where the regret at.

The only thing that matters is the criteria to judge a decision once it has occurred. Unless the people who cashed their gains have a clear understanding that even after a spike in prices, the market has reversed, it will be natural to regret but that should not make you believe that you made the wrong judgement. I just forget the fact that when you cash in with a higher charge than you invested in to begin with, it is a win rather than a loss. An individual is only said to be greedy because he is totally dissatisfied with his work even after he has already realised the outcome of the efforts made. I believe that we should learn how to evaluate things in a more realistic view, and, in case, everything is evaluated by the interpretations that were not made, we will never regret it. Physical output should be preferred over the potential output that might come or might not come.

[laijsica]

Satisfaction after winning is very important for gamblers. Your friend wisely cashed out 50%, this is a discretion. He won the next game but he could not be happy with the small amount of winning. This is a result of not being satisfied with his own decision in any situation because regret can make you mentally weakly rather than confident and you will be more likely to make wrong decisions in the next games. In my opinion, you should stop playing after winning and cash out most of your money.

You were greedy even though you had the opportunity to cash out, so it tempted you to lose. I think every gambler in such a situation should stop playing and cash out because by doing so you can get more entertainment and reduce the amount of losses significantly. The preparation of the game will be better next time and the chances of winning are increased.

Mystery in the uncertainty of gambling and cashout. A friend of mine is regretting why he cash out his game that was supposed to give him a historical huge winning but he cash out halfway to avoid regrets which earned him little profits but at the end the games played all.
In my own experience, i was overconfident that my games would play successfully just after the teams I had my doubts on was able to win. So I take the rest few games common and hopefully to win easily but the games cut and I lost it all even while I had the opportunity for over 70% cash out.

Since last week this incident occured, my friend had been a complaint still feeling that chances he would had made it big win if not for his cash out.
So I am to ask, between me and my friend who is in position to feel this regrets regarded that I won nothing and he made some cash out ?

This can depend on gamblers mindset both of you will regret your actions but you that won nothing should feel more pain and regret because you lost it all both your stake amount and your potential winning.
Your friend is only regretting because all his game played while he cash out half way he would have regret more if at the end he had the opportunity to cash and couldn't and then he lost just as you did you had the opportunity but you trusted your remaining games and it later didn't play, so i think you should regret more because you won nothing.

[junder]

Yes. He should be thankful that he's still got some money after that cash out. Because not all gamblers do that and worse comes to them that they get nothing because of how they decide.

We might think that it's a bad decision to cash out and take some profits even if we've got a chance to win the entire thing. Battles don't have to be won like that when you can take your money, be happy with that and go gamble again some time.

If you've managed to withdraw profits that don't include your initial investment, that's great, and it's better to be grateful than to regret it, even if you have the chance to win again, as you said, rather than getting nothing.
But clearly, in gambling, we must accept the outcome. Regret won't change things for the better. Instead, regret your own excessive behavior so you can learn from it. If it's your time to be lucky, you can win big. So, gamble sensibly and wait for luck to be on your side.

Is your friend a newbie who does not yet understand that gambling is a game of uncertainty, and things could go either way, you should be the one to feel regret for not winning anything while he has something to take home.

What's even more painful is when we ourselves join in or are deliberately victimized by our friends, who believe the game will bring quick profits. In some cases, anyone who lends them some money will be promised a quick return. Indeed, many strange ideas will emerge when someone becomes addicted, and they will certainly try their best to persuade or at least borrow funds to continue playing even if the end result is zero.

This is the most scary part of gambling, you will believe that you get it under control only to find yourself in an unpleasant situation, kudos to all gamblers out there who have become a victim of themselves.

No string attached is the best word that I can use to describe responsible act of gambling, if you can control or erase emotions you will do very well for yourself, there should be no room for feeling bad because you win too little or you lose a game.

Desires and dreams in gambling will only messed up your good heart, you will get angry for no  reason, for my mental health sake I choose to be a selfless gambler who isn't attached to winning by force when gambling.

Regret depends on the attitude of each of the two bettors, it is possible that both will feel regrets either they accept cash out or not. But if you're looking at it from the profit angle the one that didn't win anything should be the one that will regret more. Although we have stubborn gamblers who are too greedy, even if they cash out and all the games eventually plays to their prediction they will feel regret. They will forget that they could lose everything if they didn't cash out. Gamblers should try as much as possible not to feel regrets when they lose, it wouldn't help them, when you lose you should accept it and try your luck another day.

It's personal preference you can't really determine or compare the regrets between yourself and your friend cause regardless othat he won some little cash out of it he's still be more pained than you are, but in your own end you're regrets is based on the fact that you didn't see any of that so it's not something of comparison but be willing to let go things sometimes wen they occur.

[traderethereum]

No need to regret cashing out the funds because no one will know what happens later. That is a wise decision your friend made although he had a chance to win big but he doesn't know what the last result will be. So cashing out the money will be necessary if we feel that our team are difficult to win. Instead of losing all of the money, we can get some cash that we can use to place another bet. So there is no need to feel sad because many matches are waiting for him to bet and he can have his chance to win big.

[fruktik]

You both had different scenarios and regrets are inevitable so you both have a different background for regrets but its justifiable if you had more regrets since you had nothing to go home with even after experiencing some kind of excitement hoping it ends up in your court but your friend is on the run for history in his betting so it feels different having known that the goal is almost here but he had to take it halfway because he would be in more regret if he had lost immediately after not taking the cash out just like you did.

In this case, there's no point in regretting it. Did you manage to withdraw any money? That's good enough. We should rejoice in this gift of fate. Everything could have been different and we could have ended up with nothing at all, as happens in most cases.

I'm sometimes amazed at people who don't appreciate what they have at a given moment. Others might not even have that. We've all forgotten how to rejoice in even the smallest circumstances and events.

[Nwada001]

What's the point of feeling regret here? Because I don't see any, we have two gamblers in the picture who use their money to place a bet. Their money, their decision. If the game is not directly playing according to how you planned it, or somehow you have a change of heart and decide to cash out, it's something you don't need to regret irrespective of how the game outcome turns out to be. Even if you did not cash out and the game ended negatively, there is still no point in regretting it, just like you not placing a bet at all and the game you intended to be on playing just like you predicted. This is gambling; grab what you can. Whichever one you are able to cash out is never yours.

[Judith87403]

Both of you.

You have reasons to feel regretful and that’s already enough to feel that way. Your friend missed a big win even if he managed to to take some profit while you on the other hand lose everything while you have the opportunity to cashout.

Your case is just more painful because you lose everything including your bankroll.

Sure, the both of them have every reason to feel regretful, but I think op is supposed to be the one to feel more regret than his friend that decided to Cash out halfway. Though I know how it feels like when you find yourself in such situation because I have encountered similar thing before and i would say that I deeply regretted but at some point i just let go off the regret since I'm still in a profit because I don't really know what would've happened if I didn't make the cash out.

 so this is not something that is supposed to eat him up a Guy that has little is better than the one that has non so he should just let it slide, let's say this is just like a lesson while some times we can also see it as a blessing because we really can't tell what will happen in the end.

You are saying the fact but it is easier said than to be done. Think about it, what we are talking about here is gambling (events that has a force within your emotions) even though you may be in control of it.

I can tell you for free that there is always that feeling of (had I know) at the point of every games outcome whether you wins or looses because I have had experiences of players saying "they wished they have wagered higher so they would had gotten higher profits after winning. Also had seen others saying they wished they had wagered lower, they would not had lost so much after loosing the game.

So verily are state of emotions that is accompanied with regrets even though they can still move ON without panicking.
