Does anyone else feel unlucky every time they lose?

[sompitonov]

Someone who lost that much might think they're unlucky. But thinking of it from time to time, you're becoming paranoid and that's unhealthy. Don't put all of your time to your bets. Let the bets do move on its own and just check it out once it's done. Whether you're unlucky with how you think about it, don't be so invested with it and gamble with an affordable amount to lose. Because if you're that kind of gambler, you'll just gamble whenever you're free without having all of that emotion attached to your bets because it will do you no good if you keep thinking like that.

I simply realized that we shouldn't react too emotionally to losses, because that can lead us to burn out and make inappropriate decisions that will lead to a complete loss. I don't give such emotions a chance because I want to play a conscious game and control my risks, not exceed them. I understand how many losing players there are, and so I don't overestimate my winning expectations. Some people simply expect to win often, but they don't want to hear about periods of downswings, and it's important to understand this and prepare for them.

When we let our emotions be part of our bets, that's when the disaster starts. We know how we are emotional and things could really go wrong if we let that touch ourselves. We're conscious how tough and mentally the bets we gamble and that's why we shouldn't add more pressure to it when we gamble. We have the control and it's our free will that will dictate us if we will let things happen based on how emotional we are. It's okay to gamble and feel bad about being unlucky but don't stick to that very often because it'll change how you approach losses.

Attitudes toward losses are crucial today, but I think there are many players among us who don't think about it, for example, those accustomed to the quick dopamine rush of social media, shorts, reels, and so on. Such players may simply become restless and want to bet a little more than before, either to stave off boredom or to win more. All this leads to the player simply being unable to control themselves, meaning the game is controlling them, meaning addiction is closer than ever. Generally speaking, I didn't realize what mistakes I was making, but looking back, I now understand that I won't allow myself to do things that could give the game a chance to control me.

Even tho gambling is a game of luck, loosing doesn't primarily mean that your unlucky, the success of gambling is not only based on luck, you Also need experience, some extent of knowledge, discipline, risks management etc. and yes luck also plays a crucial role in gambling.
So if you have all these and you still loose games they you can now consider that you are unlucky. The main point is that you shouldn't just go into conclusion that you are unlucky you should also try to get better in the other aspects of gambling as well

Gambling is always a lucky game even you have some experience about it if you're not lucky you will never succeed in it, because if Gambling can be moving with experience all people that are watching football should have understood every step and knows the club that are strong that can be wining always but when you stake you will see some club will start to perform poor in the pitch that is why gambling is always unpredictable. Just stake what you can afford to lose so that you won't feel weak when you lose. Many people that feel unlucky are such that always put huge money that they are not afford to lose just think wisely.

The results of gambling are unpredictable, no matter how much experience we use when gambling, if we don't have good luck, we can't win at gambling. Of course, it is very wise to decide to gamble with the money we can afford to lose. When we gamble with money we can afford to lose, we can control our emotions no matter what the outcome of the gambling, so we can control ourselves at the right time, thereby reducing the risk of losing money and enjoy the fun of gambling.

I think you've brought up an important point of what you've said and I agree. It's about being hyper when we've been into the social media for for a long time and our minds are tired. And yet, we want to gamble and that affects our decision making when we gamble. We think that we're still okay but we need an actual rest before moving on. That changes everything about us and we don't notice that often because we're focusing on the goal that we're trying to achieve and that's about winning back the losses that we've got and the humiliation that we've felt when we've been through it.

Does anyone else feel like this, or is it just me with this weird mindset?

You will regret not betting even when someone else wins the matches you overlooked. It is not unusual to feel unlucky when you lose a bet, if I am not mistaken most people feel this way. But this is definitely overthinking, when your wins are more than your losses, you should not worry too much. You should enjoy the wins. When the number of losses is more, worry about luck.

It is very good to have the understanding thst lose can occur in gambling,  expect loses and if one have this understanding even when you lose it wint be a burden to you because you already understand lose is part of the game. In gambling people needs to have patience and to gamble with the amount that cant be afford because anything can happen, it is possible for one to ne unlucky in games but the only ein at this point is that one only plays with the amount that cant be afford.

[Marykeller]

I don’t know if I’m overthinking, but every time I place a bet, say 5 games, and 2 lose, my first thought is always: “I’m just unlucky.”

I catch myself thinking, if I hadn’t played those games, it would’ve gone the other way.

The times you will have your games bet the way you have thought, you will still have a loss bet. Gambling is what I know that doesn't go the way we predict our games. If we like, let's follow our hearts as many times as we want, the bet we will lose to, we will still lose to them

[danadc]

If you lose your bet, you don't have to bother yourself over it but accept your fate so that you don't get emotional. If you are not lucky today, you can be lucky tomorrow.

I think things have always been that way; if we don't win at a given moment or when we want to, well, it will happen at the least Expected moment, and that's a fact that it could happen, but we have to be patient, we have to be very good at controlling ourselves and wait for the right moment When I win, I withdraw it, because if I leave it in the casino I'm sure I'll lose it I always make that decision.

Yeah, you’re right, once you’re equipped with such understanding losses won’t trigger your greed or emotion to want to get back what you’ve lost rather, you’ll try another day, the day you least expect you might turn out a lucky day. Once you’ve proper understanding and self discipline, you’ll know when to take a gambling as an entertainment and also how to allocate funds to your stake so you don’t end up regretting on the long run, you’ll know when to quit, when it seems luck isn’t on your side. Most importantly you’ll know how avoid parlay games, instead bet on single to few games, at least this will increase your chances of winning.

I do agree with you on patience and emotional control, however I do not believe that when a person loses every time it is time to state that he/she is just unlucky. Gambling is largely dependent on probabilities and house edge rather than on chance. After a few to many losses, it is quite normal to get unlucky, one thing that should be kept in mind is that all bets are independent. Bankroll management and discipline is what counts. It is a good idea that you are used to taking away the winnings since it not only helps in keeping profit safe but also you will be less tempted to gamble. Ultimately, it is mindset and control that are important than luck.

[nara1892]

I think we have to go back to the initial understanding of the concept of gambling which is that it is an activity that cannot be predicted, there is no certainty and there is no guarantee regarding victory, so when you place a parlay bet and the last game turns out to be a failure of all your plans then it means you are unlucky, nothing more than that and not because of anything else.

Thinking like “if only I hadn't placed that bet maybe I wouldn't have lost” is a very natural thought but thinking about it too much won't change anything, meaning forget it and don't let it affect your mental and psychological state.

[Yablee0]

That's true, there is a way losses makes you feel especially when you lose a huge amount of money, at that point you are going to start thinking about things that you would have used the money for and being on regrets. All these feelings wouldn't really cross your mind if you always gamble with an amount of money that you can afford to lose.

You're right, when someone wins in any of his gaming streak the surposed person will actually have a special way of feeling which is being happy then if he lose the reverse is the case but this normally happens when you have and inner motive before gambling, because when you start gambling with so much expectations and at the end you didn't meet up your expectations you start feeling bad and that's the mother of lost chasing.

Furthermore, gambling is not a die hard game that we should approach as if our life is placed on it, it's better we gamble with the little we can let go and still be safe in the game.

[SFR10]

Does anyone else feel like this, or is it just me with this weird mindset?

I don't and I wouldn't call it having a weird mindset, but rather someone who's unrealistically perfectionistic... I usually lose most of my bets, so winning three of the five bets isn't that bad ^{[you need to try to see the glass half full, as opposed to half empty (in your case, it's even more than half full, so don't be hard on yourself)]}.

[Betwrong]

I don't find that mentality strange; many people think that way. When you lose, it's easy to blame everything on bad luck, but in reality, that's part of the ups and downs of betting. Our brain tries to find patterns and even thinks we influenced the result just by betting, but that's just a way of thinking. The problem is that this thinking can lead to forcing more bets to recover, thinking that now the luck will turn.

Some gamblers think if they lost several times in a row, there's a big probability of them winning soon. But in fact the probability isn't that big. Think. If you failed trying to succeed in something several times in a row, then most likely you'll fail again with your another try. If you are trying to beat AlphaGo AI in Go and failed 5 times, I bet you'll fail on your 6th try too.  So, stop trying, right? ... It is not like this in gambling, though. If I want to win with 990x multiplier, I can made hundreds of bets and if luck smiles at me, I can even win. I don't make 5 bets and stop because of the low probability of winning with the next try. What rule you always must follow with this kind of betting is that the price of all your bets combined should not exceed the amount of you can afford to lose.

[MinMan]

It's clear that you are going to feel unlucky as long as you lose, because of a mindset and that's not going to be easy for anyone at all. It's not going to be ok for you to feel that way because of any reality, it's going to be ok because you are that type of person. Whenever something happens bad in life, you feel like you are unlucky and that makes you a victim mindset and you think that you would have done better if you weren't a victim of life.

This is not how you become great, if you want to great, you have to face adversity and come out stronger and try to be better than before, that's the only way you can get better and you are going to end up with much better results if you are smart about it. Forget about unlucky, make your own luck.

[Dunamisx]

There's nothing bad in it when we feel the uncomfortability for losing a bet after we must have put all necessary efforts to ensure that it turns out to be a winning game, however, things like this cannot be avoided completely in gambling because we know that the risk is always involved each time we play and we stand the chance of winning or losing, therefore there is nothing to worry about this whenever it happens to us and we must be prepared for it, in case it happened.

[GeorgeJohn]

I don’t know if I’m overthinking, but every time I place a bet, say 5 games, and 2 lose, my first thought is always: “I’m just unlucky.”

That's the fact to quantify it...if you lose gambling, at that moment your unlucky, because gambling not guaranteed  or been assured...

I catch myself thinking, if I hadn’t played those games, it would’ve gone the other way.

A thing of such nature happens to a gambler almost every day, any gambler will blame he or herself when it lose, a one thing most make the gamblers to feel regretful...

Does anyone else feel like this, or is it just me with this weird mindset?

It's not only you, it happens to other gamblers...gambling is all about look, and it's obvious that most of people who wins are on the lucky side to win gambling...

Capital loss is currently a painful experience even where the speculation is at its best points of analysis but probability is a known reality we cannot fret about in any speculation. Loss should not be seen as a complete failure, but a cost of operation that we have to bear in an attempt to attract more opportunities. Preparation against uncertainty enables us to be rational and calm in our mind so that we can take calculated next steps without our emotions being overly expressed such that our future finances structure would not be ruined.

The time you start practicing discipline is also the time that you'll enjoy your gambling activities, knowing and understanding both risk and potentials will able to create you a god strategy and approach on how you accept the outcome, and similar to what you said, you'll not be bothered if you suffer from a loss but you'll use that as reference on your next deal and adjust with what strategy you are using, more on discipline and executing your plan when playing your session.
