Is it really your money that you lost?

[irhact]

If you bet a $1 and you win $100 but you lose it all again the next round you bet, is it really your money that you lost even though you just won that $100? More like you lost the potential of having that amount of money which is why it hurts but if we are being honest it should be easy to move on because that money did not exactly come from your own wallet. Do you find yourself harder to move on if you lose money from a huge win even if you just bet only a small amount?

regardless of the amount be it $10 or $100, you basically took a risk and then got rawarded for the risk, the moment you receive the reward every decision next is taken by you. So if you use it to gamble again and then loss it .... well of course it will hurt. The illusion that money you win from a bet isn't yours has to be fixed because the money you lose is definitely yours.

If you won the money, it’s yours to withdraw and yours to lose as well. However I do understand the sentiment of those who say it wasn’t theirs anyway to begin with when they lose the money. It’s just their own way of dealing with the loss but it doesn’t change the fact that you had the opportunity to collect your winnings if you wanted.

Of course it was my money because if I had withdrawn that money without betting it again, it would have gone into my pocket, meaning it was completely my money. When someone bets, they are taking a risk and placing a bet, so the amount of profit they make will definitely be theirs.

Moreover, if someone bets $10 and gets $100, then he definitely deserves that $100. If there were a loss instead of a profit, how would you view it?

Exactly. They say the money is better in your wallet rather than in a casino wallet and this must be the main reason to this saying. However it is one choice if he wants to collect it or not, people should be playing with objectives, they should set as objective what to do with the money they win, some may have decided to withdraw, some may have decided to do half of the money big bonus buys and withdraw the other half and some person want to make it or break it so maybe they go all in with a single max money they have bonus buy in games where volatility is extremely high like those in NoLimitCity or Hacksaw, my personal advice to these persons is never do that with the worse scamming provider of all Pragmatic Play, any other provider doesn't "scam" in such open way.

Yes. It's my money because I've already won it. The problem with losing another $100 is the risk I took because I didn't withdraw the money beforehand and decided to continue.
Whether it's difficult or easy depends on me, because my concept of gambling is being prepared to lose some money.
If my initial capital is $100, then if my balance increases to $200 and I decide to continue and I lose $100, that means I haven't lost; I've won. I've won the game.

That sentiment cannot be corrected, basically there is no such thing in the world, yes or no, just a belief about people who believe in mystical things like that, as long as they know what the future will be like, there is no guarantee logically to justify it.

Gambling is gambling, today and and today, such is the reality if your money is lost today then you do lose money in gambling and vice versa if you withdraw your money from the winnings you get a win, isn't that the rule of logic? not for those who believe in the future you have to lose it so today even that loss occurs.

[Sandra_hakeem]

Yes it is.
A win is a win and the reward that comes with it is also yours.
If I had chosen to walk away with my initial win before placing the next bet that led to me losing all my money, I would have still gotten my money, perhaps buy something else with it. So losing it after just winning only introduces you to a circle of repetition and you can never keep the profits that you make. It's always advisable to take a long break after a big win, before trying out other opportunities.

If I win a bet and I withdraw 70% of my winnings to my personal account and lose 30% back to the system, I don't find it difficult to move on because I didn't lose all the money, but if I win a bet and lose all my winnings back to the system in the next round of my bet, I will find it hard to move on because I should have withdrawn part of the money since I know that it's very easy to lose a bet.  

[giammangiato]

If I use $1 to win $100, I can not lose the $100 on the next round because I will not wager with all the $100. If I do that, it means I don't have a bankroll management and it's a reckless mistake, since I have won the money, it becomes my own and I can withdraw it and use it for some private necessities. The money becomes mine because it's a profit that came from my capital and that's what makes it my money, if lost, I should feel bad since I could have put it into private necessities.

You hit on an argument I had a few weeks ago with a friend, we were talking about a bet I placed, I lost that bet and he told me you lost your money, I was trying to make him understand that the money I lost (was mine) but it's basically money I had won in other previous bets, so if I "lose" it it doesn't affect my economy.
I consider the money I earn by working and that I always spend very carefully to be my own. The money I win in gambling is still my money, but it's money I reuse to play (until I make significant wins, of course).

When you won the bet, you could have used that money in some other sector, then I would say that the money you won was actually yours. You said that the money you won in gambling did not come from my wallet, but I would say that when I won, I could have put it in my money bag. So later when you lose that money in gambling again, I would say that it is your money that you have lost. To be honest, gamblers think this way and if they lose this money, they bet more to win again. This is not really logical. Gambling with emotion can never benefit a person.

The money you just won has already become your dollars. Just like financial gift or financial empowerment from family and friends, as soon as it gets to your wallet from them for whatever the reason is, it already becomes your funds under your discretion. I guess the dollars won can somehow also be liken to collection of loan, as soon as the funds is released, it becomes yours automatically under your control.

However it should be more easier to bear losing all the dollars you won talk less of small part of it. This is because to be on the safer side is to bet what you can afford to lose, so when this bet amount is from the bet company then fine, not as if you love it as you lose but you have to keep healthy.

Since it's not an amount they deposited from their bank or wallet balance, they don't seem to completely regard it as their money, but when the casino refuses to let them withdraw money won, they will say the casino is robbing them of their money. I will just also agree to the statement that they are just picturing it that way in order to make themselves feel good for losing it.

I have several times almost won big with only a small stake, but I didn't succeed because in the end I experienced losses. Although at first I regretted it and had a hard time moving on, eventually I managed to forget it. Believe that at first it is indeed hard to move on from a potential win that was almost within your reach, but just continue with your activities (don't gamble anymore) and you will surely forget it.

Greed is the biggest enemy of most gamblers, Gamblers tend to remember wins more strongly than losses. This dopamine is what makes them feel dissatisfied with what they get so that most gamblers continue to return to get a much bigger win than before, this is the mistake that most gamblers make. Learn from your gambling experiences by always remembering this, you will definitely realize it and will not repeat similar things in the future. It would be better if we get a win, enjoy the results you get because an incident like this is impossible to happen every time, you can gamble again whenever you can do it.

That's why we need good management when gambling, one of the main reasons being to avoid greed like this, which can lead to an initial $99 win, but due to lack of proper management, that win turns into a loss that's hard to forget.

In my personal opinion it could be considered a loss because we initially won $100 with a $1 initial bet. We actually had the option to secure 50% of those winnings, but lack of proper management can turn that into a loss. It's like investing $100 and it becomes $1,000, but because of greed, you lose it all. I mean, the win was already yours.

Even if the actual loss is $1, the pain or opportunity of not getting $100 temporarily overwhelms us. And the intense desire to catch it turns into an addiction at some point. And again and again it seems "I was so close to getting this $100 but I didn't get it, it means I didn't lose $100, rather the human brain considers losing the opportunity as a real loss. That's why it hurts and it consoles itself by saying that luck is not helping today, I will try tomorrow." This is what addiction is and this addiction helps people become gamblers.

If I gamble, win big, and then did the withdrawal, I will consider it entirely mine, but if I haven't withdrawn it in a single gambling session, and especially if I lose, I won't consider it mine. I understand that the OP is providing a way to move on easily, and anyone can probably use it, but personally, I don't use that assumption as a way to move on. I simply adhere to the principle of "bet money you can afford to lose" when gambling, and I will take responsibility for all the consequences. So, by that way I can move on, and even continue my next gambling session with peace of mind, without thinking too much about past loss.

After winning $100 with $1, wouldn't you consider it your money? Maybe if you lose in gambling, there will be regret and to reduce that regret, you can console yourself by losing the winning money. But the reality is that you have lost the winning money, that is, your money. Just as when you lose your money in betting, your bankroll is empty, so when you lose your winning money, you also lose your money. That is why every loss is regret. It is not bad for a gambler to think like this in order to console himself. At the end of the day, every loss is painful, so you should definitely be extremely careful while gambling.

That's why you have to think carefully before losing, what you lose once will never come back, then you only have to repent, but you will not get anything back, even trying to get it back after losing will lead you to even bigger losses. So first of all you have to be careful, what you have won, withdraw it first, don't be greedy, because after winning the casino will take it back from you, but you have to withdraw it before you are careful.

Yes, it is your money.  However, it isn't uncommon for people to lose money the just won.  Easy come, easy go, is a pretty common saying.  It is a good attitude to have to not worry about losing what you've won.  I might suggest setting aside a little money when you win so that you don't leave emptyhanded, but if you're having a good time then it doesn't really matter.  If I won free games at an arcade and then played them all, I wouldn't be upset that I left without free games to play later.  I would be happy that I got to play more than I had intended without having to deposit more money.

Whatever the source of the winning money when it comes to you, it is your money and that is normal but the problem is that many people put the winning money back into betting because they think that they have won it once in gambling so it is not a problem if they lose it. But the truth is that since the money you have won is your money if you lose this money then it will also be your loss. And to be honest those who bet emotionally make a mess of everything, whether they win or lose but this does not mean that any winning money is not real money so, we must accept that both the profit and loss are ours.
