What do you do to relieve your anger when you lose at gambling?

[bhadz]

It's hard to manage that when you have anger management problem. Start it by playing slot games with smaller amounts, so if you lose, you're not going to be serious about it because you afford to lose that money. That's how it starts when we're becoming angry and emotional when we've lost so much money that we can't afford to lose. And for that reason, it has triggered yourself to have that ego of yours to be angry because it's unacceptable for you. Next is to accept that losing is part of gambling, you have to chill as you gamble.

Gambling shouldn't be treated as a do or die affair that one gets emotional anytime the outcome doesn't favor them. It isn't supposed to favor a gambler in the first place, that's why the house always wins or why there's the house edge advantage over any player, mostly when they are just joining for the first time.

Anyone who has anger issues shouldn't gamble much as it could lead to more severe health crisis like high blood pressures or stroke and could lead to a life of addiction where one depends on coping mechanism to ease themselves.

And possible that they can do some other crazy things that they have never done before just because they're angry and they've lost recently.

The best thing at to enjoy gambling and be free from emotional control is to play it as entertainment, not a serious occupation and the best advice yet is to give breaks or play at intervals or play with only funds you can afford to lose without losing your temper.

Yes, gamble happily and never been angry with it. If you get to enjoy all of the bets and games that you know of, you'll be away from being emotional and having those breakdown moments that will get you to being annoyed.

I don't feel stressed or angered whenever I play and lose a game because before I play games, I already know the principles of playing with funds I can afford to lose, and having that in mind already counters such emotions, and another thing is that I play for fun, not with a mindset of making a profit from games. All these put together with others make me free whenever I play games, whether I win or not, I do not feel any impact of the game.

Your first statement alone is enough for me; even if we are playing both for fun and profit, as long as the player is still using an amount within the limit, there should be no big deal if they lose or win.

The problem comes when you don't understand the principle of gambling and think that you control it and stake an amount that will take you time to recover from due to a high expectation of profit.

Yesterday I just lost several hundred dollars in one of the slot games: Mahjong Ways. I was stressed, I immediately went to the club to meet my friend for a drink and relieve stress there, I'm curious how you manage your anger when you lose gambling? does anyone do like me?

Gambling should not be a reason to get angry by losing, I think that it is not a big deal whether you win or lose while gambling, the main purpose should be to enjoy entertainment or relax. Gambling is mainly for entertainment, it cannot be an easy way to earn money or get rich quickly, and gambling cannot be a part of our life. It is very important to keep a cool head while gambling, no matter what the result is, we can enjoy real fun or entertainment by keeping a cool head and following the right rules for entertainment purposes.

We are always focus on post  solution instead of doing the necessary steps to avoid what is going to make us angry when we lose. Why do you have to be angry in gambling when you can stop it from beginning. If you as a gambler you bet the least money you never need, it will not affect you when you lose trust me but by the time you use money that you desperately need and you loss it, you will be grinding your eat with your face in a disarray.

If you don't have money like other gamblers, make sure you don't gamble like them, this is going to save you from a lot of embarrassment, when you don't win you wouldn't be bother. There are ways to gamble even if you have small money, you need an experience and of course the skill to arrange your games accordingly and if you are able to win them, you will win big money with small money but if you lose, you wouldn't feel the pain of big loss.

Some get angry when the other club didn't perform better and he lose the bet, to avoid angry in gambling the best thing you can do me help your self is to give a break and if is not helping you is better you should stop it and focus on another thing that you think can be making you happy without getting angry anymore. Most people get angry in gambling when they stake the money they should not support to use and bet and they used it and probably the game cut and that will definitely make them angry and regret of using the funds to gamble. I can probably says that anything that is all about money and you can gain profit in t he will surly make you angry one day if he did work as your play.

I don't really take chances in gambling that I will get angry if I lose. And I do this by keeping my gambling fund to a very small amount.
And it mainly depends on two things, such as I always think that gambling is only for entertainment, it is not a source of generating income that will make me rich very easily. And at the same time, I keep in mind that most of the time I will lose in gambling. When I keep these two things in mind, my mind automatically instructs me to stake a small amount of funds, which basically helps me control losses and at the same time saves me from angryness/stress.

When you are very depressed and very angry, the best way is to entertain yourself with something to reduce anger and emotions. The thing I do most in such a situation is to listen to music loudly. It helps me to relax a lot. Because of this, the more silence I can keep during this time, the more unrest grows in my mind and it becomes very boring. I often feel more comfortable listening to music loudly when I am in a bad moment. Besides, spending some time at a nightclub can also reduce the emotions of loss

How can you bet with such an huge amount of money that means you were chasing your loses, then at what point did you realize that you have spent all these amount of money without winning?

is it when your fund was exhausted?

 You see that is why we  are being asked to set a limit in time and cash in other to control our gambling habit, as long as it was a delebrate act, for me I would not regret it, it will hurt but just for a while, I will forget it no cooling off because I will still be wasting and losing more money in cooling off, next time be more careful.

I had a similar experience in one of the exchanges because of network, I was not patience enough and I lost huge amount of money, I just have to forget about it and move on because it was due to my mistake and carelessness.

When you are stressed up avoid going to the casinos until you regain yourself, the casino is always there for you at anytime .

Nothing works for me except laying down and blaming myself the worse possible way I can. I keep repeating to myself what I would have done with the money I lost by playing slot machines, I say for example that I could have bought that used Ipad or that Samsung Tablet and read some PDF-s or watch video courses, I say to myself that for example I could have invested that money into some shitcoin and who knows what would happen with that money. I keep saying to myself these kind of things in order for me next time to not fall prey of gambling addiction again. Sometimes it works for me and sometimes it does not but everybody has his own ways of calming down, sometimes I even go running in the forest, anything to keep my head away from what just happened.

for me losing money I worked hard for really hits different especially when it happens a few days in a row, what I do now whenever I feel that tilt coming is I step away completely no phone, no apps, no casinos. I usually go outside, walk around or talk to someone close to me just to reset my mind sometimes I just sleep it off so I won’t do another impulsive decision.

It is true, sometimes it is difficult to control emotions when a gambler experiences an unexpected loss.
There are certainly various ways to do this, some of which you have already mentioned, although there are actually other approaches you can try. I'm not sure why most of us make a big deal out of losing when we gamble within reasonable amounts and can afford to lose. Momentary emotions are normal, but they will last for those who gamble just for the money.

Self-control in gambling should be in place from the start, including deciding how much money one can afford to lose. If someone always dwells on their losses to the point of feeling bad after losing, then perhaps something needs to change quickly.

[Mate2237]

At the first place how can you be angry because you lost in gambling, this is not a very good thing to do because when you are angry over your winning it shows that you are not matured enough to gamble because, gambling is only for people who are matured enough to take the shock of losing that they may experience. When you are angry you lose your sense of judgement and it can lead you to taking decisions that you may end up regretting later.

.
When you due to losing in gambling, there is high tendency of you continuing to gamble with the hopes of making mote money and recovering what you have lost in the process. This is not a too good idea because you can actually end up losing the more which may end up getting you angry the more.

One should never go beyond the rules or limits when gambling. As per the previous plan, one should make arrangements to be stress-free if one loses. However, repeating the same thing after losing is wrong. Many people drink alcohol or get involved in bad drugs after losing. I think this makes their life more complicated. Only those who are addicted to gambling do this. First, they cannot get out of their gambling addiction, and second, they get involved in another addiction again. So, if one loses, one should convince oneself that if one makes a decision in anger, there is a high chance of making a mistake. It can be a very good reason to forget about hanging out with friends.

The reason why you are angry is because you aren't gambling with what you can afford to lose while gambling, and you gamble to cover up some funds or double your funds but it went the other way round , that was why you were very angry at yourself for lose money.
Gambling with very little money won't make you angry, let say when you gamble with 1-10$ you wouldn't be so bitter at yourself for losing money, that is why if you must gamble you will also learn to control your emotions because whenever you lose you could do something silly over yourself.

[iBaba]

If I somehow lose all my balance before the blink of an eye and it does not last me as it's supposed to, the next thing I will think of is whatever is going to distract my mind from gambling, and my choice will be based on what I have available around, but clubbing is never going to be an option for me.

If such thing was to happen to me, I will just shut the phone, go outside and walk around my compound until my head clears or better still I will just jump into the bathroom take some shower and go straight to the bed because that is one way I seriously use to kill the anger or I can still give one of my closest guys a call, let him know about the loss and we joke and laugh about it and that's just it.

What will work for me might be different from what will work for you so I can only mention about the things that I think will work for me and if still recommend them so if OP thinks they will also work for him he can give it a try but if you think it is clubbing that will make you forget your sorrows then, that will not be a problem. You can go ahead and do it but make sure that it does not make you come home and start depositing more while you are still mad because that will be the most craziest thing ever to do.

Don't be angry, don't be emotional, don't be greedy. These will never calm you down, but will make you more angry, make you uncontrollable, force you to make wrong decisions, mess up your life.
If you do these things, you will regret losing everything at the last moment, if you make a wrong decision here, it can ruin your life, take away everything you have achieved.
Its effect is very strong, those who get involved in it cannot easily get out of it. But when a gambler conducts his activities responsibly from the beginning, it is never harmful to him.

[Fiasem20]

First,I would say don't let greed cloud your decisions,stick to your regular bankroll and don't exceed it for the purpose of getting more money in return.There are lot of destructive ways to relieve a gambler whom has lost at gambling,for instance taking hard drug, drinking alcohol and smoking,whatever amount a gambler has lost these are not the way to get rid of the anger.Personally,music has always been my great emotional outlet, whenever I'm angry I vibe into my music and after that I feel relieved like nothing really happened.The clubbing could turn out to drinking to stupor because at that point you're pained and alcohol could be the only option there in the club to get rid of the pain.So in essence,as gamblers it's advisable to  choose a perfect emotional outlet that won't be destructive in the long run.

There is an amount of loss that you will make that just shutting your phone or taking a walk around your compound may actually not remedy the situation, some losses will even take away sleep from your eyes.

I can still give one of my closest guys a call, let him know about the loss and we joke and laugh about it and that's just it.

Having someone to speak to can actually be of great help and relieve. Someone that will not criticize or judge you.

if OP thinks they will also work for him he can give it a try but if you think it is clubbing that will make you forget your sorrows then, that will not be a problem.

Clubbing is not cheap, and you just lost some money to gambling, do you actually feel that spending more money to club is the best decision, I do not think so.

your being stress should be as a result of gambling with more than what you can afford to lose. To avoid been emotionally traumatised we should always gamble with an amount that wont affect us that much. One thing about me I don't gamble with what I know that will put me in tight corner if I lose it.

Nothing is best than completely going off grid, so that i can have my peace of mind, and sort out my feelings, and attend to myself. For me, going off grid to always worked. Another way is engulfing ourselves with work. If you are busy workings, you won't have the time to thing about such loses, even if you brains unintentionally wants to. I guess, that's why people says, "an idle brain is devil's workshop"...
