Which do you regret losing the most?

Is that true? I might as well regret the millions of dollars that could potentially be mine. In my opinion, this is absurd.  I can't even imagine why I would deceive myself, much less tell others about my mythical losses. It's a shame to lose when it seemed that victory was already near. But this applies to sports betting, because such a situation happens there exactly when you don't expect it. But thinking in terms of "lost profits" is hardly appropriate in gambling. For a simple reason, everything is determined by chance, unlike betting.

That’s right, you barely see stuffs like this in casino games. But the thing about this type of gamblers is that you hardly see them chasing losses, once their attempts on hitting that big win fails, the only thing is that most of them go back home angry, furious about losing what was believed could’ve been theirs, but you’d never see most of them chasing the amount they lost, since they’re not that bothered about their initial stakes which some gamblers actually end up chasing.

LOL, that guy is assuming that he has lost money that isn't his. Well, first of all, money that didn't touched your account and hand,  isn't yours. I am not that type of gambler that assumes my potetial win is what I've lost. If I lost money then that's the bankroll and the amount of money that I have bet for, not the possible and potential win that I might get. A gambler like that should change his mindset although on the other hand, that sounds assuring and positive but that's quite dangerous for me if you'd ask me if it's a good mindset or not.

It's a dangerous mindset bud, which ever way we try to look at it, I don't find any thing positive and assuring about, I can only find future disaster.

Imagine that a day comes and this bettor places some bets which it's total potential winnings runs up to hundreds of thousands of dollars which could be worth hundreds of millions in local currency, if this bet loses, the bettor with this type of mindset may collapse because he assumes he's lost a very huge amount of money, whereas the money he lost may not be up to $50 which is the initial capital he spent on betting on that game..
That guy (who ever he is) needs to change from this type of mindset, like you rightly said, money that hasn't entered a persons account or that he hasn't touched isn't his, because there is every possibility that he may not get the money, assuming a potential win as your money even when you are not sure you will win that game is simply being neive.

That's just it,  I don't usually feel bad about the money I used to stake but the potential winning is what concerns me too. I remembereda time i almost won $40k on football betting it was 3 games that cut the slip. I couldn't believe myself, I didn't even care about the money I used to stake.
But the thing we should avoid is not to gamble without setting limits to your self if not you will become addicted to it and not know when you start losing money that you suppose use to care for your self.

Well, here's just an example of how all people are different and behave in different ways. Although it is easy for us to discuss someone's behavior from the outside, in practice we also sometimes commit reckless acts. On the other hand, I've noticed for a long time that excessive caution in gambling is unlikely to lead to a very large win. However, if the risk leads to permanent anger and depression, it's hardly worth it. Still, the emotional state is more important.

You shouldn't focus more on your potential win because there's a very slim chance that you will win your bet. Which means that, you're only a day dreamer and not a true gambler because a true gambler knows that making profit in gambling is by luck. He will limit his losses and bet wisely, but if you're after your potential win, it will make you bet blindly because you will increase your bet for a bigger win.

I ou regret (the most) losing? The initial stake amount or the potential win?

I see no reason getting worked up over a potential winning that am not even sure of at the first point,  gambling is a game of luck and putting one self in a tight corner is something I wouldn't even dream about. Instead of disturbing yourself by mere fantasy you should be more concerned about the time wasted and your initial stake amount if actually is an amount you can't afford to lose, but on a normal situation it seems ridiculous and take only  greed for someone to start budgeting potential winnings that hasn't been won yet.

It is no longer a public secret that in gambling, it is a common occurrence, the initial bet can sometimes influence the potential for winning quite significantly, but this comes back to each individual in predicting a match which in my opinion is very difficult to predict. and often depends more on luck than the pure skills we have. When just one wrong choice or even a small mistake makes the entire bet go down, it can be frustrating and leave gamblers feeling regretful. I usually regret when my strongest team can't beat a team below their strength, which I find incredibly frustrating.

Near misses are literally designed to mess with your head. It’s like the casino saying, “Good job king, try again and maybe we’ll let you lose slower next time.🤣”

Yeah, that frustration hits hard especially when the strongest team suddenly forgets how to play football the moment you put all yourmoney on them. But that is exactly the trap we think our predictions matter more than they actually do. Even the best team can play like amateurs on the wrong day, and one tiny mistake can wipe an entire slip.

Definitely risky because it blurs the line between reality and illusion in gambling once you start treating potential winnings as actual losses you create unnecessary emotional pressure and unrealistic expectations gambling is already a game of uncertainty but when you attach imaginary money to your emotions it becomes even more dangerous.

When people convince themselves that they’ve lost what was never really theirs they start chasing that illusion believing they’re recovering something instead of realizing they’re just spending more of their own bankroll it’s this psychological trap that leads many gamblers into addiction and financial ruin. What matters is the real capital you used to play that’s the only money at stake anything beyond that is just probability until it becomes a confirmed win a good gambler understands this difference and focuses on playing within limits accepting both wins and losses as part of the game without attaching feelings to potential outcomes it’s a healthier mindset that keeps you grounded and prevents you from spiraling into frustration or greed.

Every gambling have a negative thing that you use and remember it, so in the gambling you need to understand that when you make a wrong decision in gambling you must to regret about it especially when you use amount of money that is reasonable enough to gamble it is when you have a concerned and remorse over it, so we need to understand such that gambling being regrettable in gambling is when you make a wrong calculation and when you lose what you are not supposed to lose it is when you have a such emotional feelings of such kind of regret

When gambling you can never say that you are guaranteed to win. In this case we should use less money so that we don't have any regrets. But those who think they should regret every time they lose, will never gamble. As far as I can tell from my experience, this is where most gamblers lose. That's why we should use money as best we can so that we don't get into any kind of worry and confusion later. Moreover, it is possible for very few gamblers to make correct decisions because gambling is long-term and depends on luck. Another thing is that if one ever gets greedy in his mind, then he will never be able to prosper by gambling.

I have this friend who’s a gambler, whenever he goes to the casino and comes back, you’d always hear him say “damn I’ve just lost $200 today” and sometimes he calls a much higher amount. And this is someone I know too well that he doesn’t have such an amount, someone who could even barely afford two square meal a day.
One day out of curiosity, I asked him how he managed to get the huge amount of money that he lost, and it was then I learned that he wasn’t always referring to the initial stake amount but the potential wins. That he’s not always concerned about the initial stake but the potential wins.

Which led me to asking, does anyone also feel this same way? Say in a parlay, one pick resulted to losing a huge amount, which would you regret (the most) losing? The initial stake amount or the potential win?

You can just ask for a screenshot or slips? He might be saying the truth though, there are people who aren't fair to themselves in life, they treat themselves like slave or animals.

Just because they can't afford to eat two meal per day doesn't mean they can't, some people's mentality is their own form of punishment on their lives, they believe that if they go hungry and keep gambling they can make it in life.

They forget that it is not always about how much you suffered or how much pressure you put on yourself, if you die it is over, those who claimed to have always love you will mourn for highest a week and that's it.

The potential win most times does ignites a whole lot of excitement and expectations, that is why it is common to see people feeling a certain way when they do not get to win and some consider it that they have lost such sum meanwhile in reality what they did lost was their stake. it is usually a painful one to have your expectations cut short and i see it as even more painful when it happens to be that it was a single game that led to the loss, it can be frustrating some times. loosing the potential win and your stake are both painful, and i am honestly trying to see or understands which is most painful because some how i find both to be having almost some and equal gravity, if you had won you would have had more money and still have your stake back and so when you loose you loose out on both just like you do again when you win so it is more like a paired feeling for me.

The stake is most painful when it happens to be a huge stake and the potential win is most painful when the stake you placed on it was a small one, it will make you feel too unlucky and question certain things, this is from my own lens of experience by the way. so the pain can be dependent on the circumstances surrounding the bet.

Another thing is that if one ever gets greedy in his mind, then he will never be able to prosper by gambling.

You mention prosper as if it's something that's very easy to accomplish through gambling. We know quite well that gambling is simply about luck and the amount of times we get lucky to win is small compared to that of losing. There's no one that can predict the future very accurately, so I don't see why anyone would be so confident in winning money that's not yet a thing. Don't gamble with money that you won't be comfortable losing, any amount no matter how small it is, if you can't bear the risk of losing it, don't use it to gamble. The industry is meant to make money for the casino and not you. If you worry too much, you get addicted.

It is an extra luxury because the potential win is an uncertain one. Spending money and time on it is a complete loss project. It's basically an unrealistic fantasy where one can imagine winning $1000 by betting on a possible $100 and regret it. The potential win is not my money, but rather it is just an imagination, meaning the amount I win on the bet should only be considered as money in my pocket. Then there is no point in regretting the loss or gain of a potential win.

The payoff is always uncertain for any bet you make, otherwise we'd all be rich.

So when he plays the slot machine, hei s basically coming back and saying he lost the jackpot right? Or maybe there’s a chance of finding money in a bag while walking down the street. is he telling that he walked around the streets today and lost a million dollars. Ridiculous thing in my opinion. you loose only what you bet. that is it.

Many people feel this way and those who feel this way are very serious about gambling and they get addicted to gambling very quickly because they dream of winning something big and think that amount of money is theirs and that is why they are not afraid to continue gambling. And when they lose them then they bet using higher odds which makes them think their loss is much bigger. And these things will make him mentally unstable and that is why he treats his family badly and tries to recover his losses quickly by being very emotional and making bigger bets. And in this way he destroys himself and does not hesitate to destroy his family too

[purple_sparkles]

The only thing I regret about gambling is that I once lent money to a relative so he could pay off his debts and loans caused by gambling. In the end, I became the main enemy and villain in his eyes simply because I didn’t want to just forgive and forget about my money. I regret that I felt sorry for him instead of letting him deal with the situation he created himself. As for my own betting, I don’t really regret anything, because I feel that I control my money. The only thing I could blame myself for is the time. Sometimes I end up spending more time gambling than I planned, and as a result, some important tasks remain unfinished, tasks that could have helped me move toward the “best version of my life.”

some gamblers really do hype up those almost wins as if the money was already theirs even when it never existed in the first place. It doesn’t make sense but emotions can get the best of people when they’re too invested in the moment and true in casino games you don’t often see them chasing losses the same way. They just walk out frustrated thinking about what could have happened instead of what they actually lost, other gamblers focus on recovering their stake and end up digging a deeper hole.

using bonus or not it will not different, as far as someone need to make deposits before claimed the bonus, if they lose the initial, the bonus will not be able to use. We know how the bonus works, its also need a wager or turnover to able to withdraw. If no meet the criteria, i think they will regret the initial deposit that lose.
