This is one of the Painful Part in Gambling

[Mate2237]

I don't want to say much because it is too painful. I used $0.30 in local currency which was equivalent to N440 to win about $9 which is equivalent to N12,500 and the potential win was big in the local currency. And the total games played were 11 as multiple bet. To make the story short, it was only Chelsea vs Arsenal match cut the bet. All other games entered. Omen (guys), it was painful. I took double chance for anyone to win but the game ended up drew so I lost out.

I think I want to rest small in the gambling world. I have loss enough this year. Let me break.

[Oshosondy]

Sorry about the loss but it can happen. I guess you used head-to-head to make the prediction, thinking it has been long that Chelsea and Arsenal draw in a match, but it happened today again.

If you think you want to take sometime not betting, it is a good thing. Just take your time, rest well and later you can continue to bet. And it is always important for you to always know that you should not bet/gamble with the amount of money that you can not afford to lose.

[Nightwalker(NW)]

Omo it's really painful abeg, why must it be that the last game?
I was thinking this only happens to me, I don't know other usually experience this as well. Most times you never wanted to include that last game but due to how small the odd could be you would want to boost it a bit higher where you ended up including the last game which led to your lose.
When I saw Chelsea and Arsenal playing draw I just concluded that many people are going to lose their bet today because usually some people could likely give Arsenal to win Chelsea while some could give Chelsea winning over Arsenal. That is why to me when betting I usually go with Over 1 for first half because I know that there must be a goal at first half either From any of the club.

Anyway sorry for the loss, next time do not always include the last game, sometimes when I finished doing my analysis about to place bet I usually removed the last game because they often cut my bet.

Hard luck that’s why it’s gambling and all the games where prediction and speculations, if I was to look at the Chelsea vs Arsenal game I would have actually had a draw in my option but that’s not the case, sometimes it’s the last games that usually cuts the whole ticket most at times in a long run of games it’s the one with even a much smaller odd that usually does spoils everything.

There is no perfection in gambling so if you’re consistently playing and losing then the best thing to do is to actually quite or take a limb break before you head back in again, so for me this break might be the best decision for you since the year hasn’t been that good for you, just sit out the last month and analyze your situation and then take decision of whether coming back or not

It is a good decision to want to take a break from gambling for a while, but that decision is a decision that some gamblers have taken already this year, but somehow they are still gambling simply due to the temptations that will come to bet, games that you will be so sure that you have made the right predictions and you just need to stake some money in your favorite gambling company. There will be trials to your discipline, and when you fail, you feel bad and start thinking that you can never be able to stop gambling when ever you say you want. You can do it though, I am just saying some things to expect.

[obuoma]

One match spoiling an entire bet slip is not new to me, I have experienced it so many times so I understand how painful it can be. It is even worse when it is the last game that cut the bet just like your case, after they probably offered you big cash out but you refused believing that the game will work. As it has happened this way, just accept the loss and try again another time since you cannot kill yourself. I want to believe that the money you used is what you can comfortably lose in betting without being heartbroken.

That's the right thing to do if you're losing a lot; it's not because you cannot take losses anymore, it's just that you want to take care of your mental health.
When you experience a string of losses, taking a break, whether a short or long break, is the right thing to do. I have my share of streaks of losses, and taking a break was my priority. I felt good, doing well after I came back.

[red4slash]

Multi and was confident enough to win but in the last match we actually felt defeat this is obviously painful and I think almost all gamblers who bet on multi have felt something like this.

The situation is uncontrollable but this is what sometimes makes us become motivated because no matter how good the bet we do but when luck does not follow then things like this can always happen.
Don't be too focused on this defeat but on the other hand don't be too eager to make other bets because it could actually make you more burdened because of the defeat that was obtained before.
There are still a lot of bets next week so for now it's better to pause and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

[Churchillvv]

That is a common occurrence on multiple bets and shouldn’t be taken to heart as truly it could be heart breaking but then you already know what you signed up for so at the end of the day losing is unavoidable, I have lost on several occasions with bets that end up being so unbelievable because at the beginning the predict might even be as others too might predict even websites could do same prediction and when the games ends it’s a different ball game all together so you should at least know that losing had higher chance than wining.

[liuka]

This is really painful after 10 other matches have won by guessing and waiting for the last match but this is what loses your parlay bet.
Even if you don't do much in this bet but still expect to win because it's a bit more to achieve a successful bet.
I don't think you are the only one who has experienced this, many other bettors who do parlays often end up like this, and now taking a break is much better than forcing to chase a bad loss.

Having that thought and joy that your bet will play out good to your likeness and you are already anticipating that the last game will do justice to it and boom! It turn out to be your worst nightmare, which hurts so much that one can't imagined.
That is why, people are always advised especially gamblers that they should be ready at all time, that gambling is only based on luck and chance, if it turns out to be a winning day or not, always remember to bet within your budget as it is the key to a successful gambler.

Sorry for your loss mate, thankfully it was not a huge amount of money which you decided to stake on that multi, but this is something which we should always consider when we log into any bookie and decide to try our luck. Lossing money is part of this business and this hobby, if one is not prepared to lose money, then it would better to stay away from all of this.

If you want or feel like taking a rest from betting on sports, then that is valid, just make sure to reflect on your financial choices and whether you are actually enjoying your time on bookies or if this is becoming a burden to you.

I understand betting and gambling are big businesses in Nigeria, but only because you are Nigerian, it does not mean you have to follow others and imitate them.

[Woodie]

Very painful indeed!!

Btw counting your losses might cause two things, either you manage your bets better without having to worry much about your bank balance or this will depress you because you have just realized that you have lost alot of times and the winnings aren't coming your way... All in all, everyone has to reflect on how the gambling journey is going to avoid being reckless with $$$$

[Cryptomultiplier]

You wouldn't have known the exact outcome of the match because I played same but used handicap with Arsenal to lead a goal, and I got it right.
You have to learn to ignore going for straight winnings many of the times, mostly when you know it is top clubs in top leagues like premier League or champions League where the outcome is totally unpredictable no matter how good or how much quality of players a team has.

Am sure you were tempted by the cashout offer but refused still and that's one lesson every sports bettor must learn and experience firsthand while placing bets.

This is to show you how unpredictable gambling can be. If you wish to take a break, it is absolutely fine and better than chasing losses in a bid to recover all that you have lost this year. When you decide to return back to gambling, you should not forget that gambling is not a reliable source of income, treat it like another form of entertainment that gives you the opportunity to win money from it if you are lucky. You really need that rest to clear your head of all the disappointments.

[Obulis]

Painful indeed. Every gambler whether addicted or not has experienced what just happened to you and some on a bigger loss.
Times like this, I believe the decision to rest for some while is a good thing to do. Don't take your lost so hard, just enjoy your rest. Glad that you are in control of your gambling life.

It is frustrating when the result is changed at a moment of notice and therefore we must admit that this can be the case in any game. We are able to create some room to breathe so that the building pressure does not cloud our vision. When distanced we get a chance to re-examine the question of whether the game remains comfortable. By so doing, we retain our emotional level minds and focus on what is more essential to living life.

If the cashout amount is good enough, better grab it if you are not very sure about the final outcome of your bets. At least, you have something afterwards and not totally zero. Because one losing bet, and that amount is gone. So yes, that's painful if you are not very careful in your next step. Especially if you are already counting the things that you need to do with that money. And that is the very reason why you don't need to plan for anything if your money is still at the casino because anything can happen that may jeopardize your plans.

[terrific]

I have seen many sportsbettors recently that have the same sentiment, they were all close to that victory for winning their parlays.
But it's not just enough and one bet have ruined it all. If there was an option for you to withdraw early, you should have done that.

It's okay to rest, you can comeback anytime. What matters is your mental health and protect that while it's not yet too severe.

These things happen, I mean this is definitely not the first time most people in this forum has heard, seen or even experienced something like this and I can tell you the feeling you get from it isn't a fun one, it can be painfully annoying knowing that it was just a single game that prevented you from winning and worst of all it was probably one of the games you thought was definitely going to play out the way you predicted it to go, you just have to take it as being a part of the game.
