believe me, one last deposit, is a lie!

[Fredomago]

Not every gamblers are able to practice all these you mentioned, some are prone to excessive deposit whenever little wins is experienced from the early trial, many factors influenced them too to misbehave in an abrupt manner thereby causing them to mismanage their funds while gambling excessively.

You're right. Not all gamblers have good discipline, setting funds limit, and make clear plans. Some gamblers may gamble in random ways, even worse they have bad mentality. Those gamblers who suddenly deposit with bigger amount of money and try to chase wins after winning few times, they have lack of understanding of gambling and they are greedy. This mostly happens in the beginner level although experienced gamblers can do it as well. So, it is about mentality. Any gambler who have weak mentality, they probably can gamble in careless ways.

You are lucky if you can really keep up with your set limit, because that means, you are disciplined enough to commit with your promise to yourself. Not many gamblers can really abide by their boundaries and be consistent about it.

Not many can do that as most of the time emotions dominates and similar to those who mistakenly thinks that just another try or one more try may change the direction of their gambling, that impression lead you to keep on playing and that same sentiments keep you from adding more money to try recovering what you already lose, it's best to have that discipline and keep yourself to your set limitation each time you gamble, whatever the outcome following your own rules will save your butt in losing more than what you can afford to let go.

Many players, as you say, should understand that the game is a game and not a job or a pension from which to draw money.
Once you understand this, everything else is simply downhill, since you will theoretically play only because you like it and how much you can afford to lose.

And even if you attempt or feel like playing to get some money, you’ll not do it because you want to win that money to sort out a particular financial burden, maybe just to have some spare cash with you, that is you don’t have a specific plan for the wins, at least this enables you avoid setting some kind of targeted win and thus making you take only rational decisions when betting.

It's always like this.

Chasing losses is something that many people even do unknowingly. Thinking you can win with depositing more and you'll have more chances etc.

Of course there's also the gambler's fallacy at play. The chances to win or lose each time are the same. Doesn't mean if you lost last time you have better chances now or that you have better odds for betting more.

I'd say it's very easy to be lead to large losses if you don't have principles to follow when gambling.
So really everyone should consider setting some monthly, weekly etc limits for their habit.

[Tetu100]

I do not believe in one last deposit because I know that is addiction or it can be what can lead to what people will call addiction. What I like is one time deposit and which I think is the best. There have been sometimes in the past that I do more than one time deposit, but it was only draining all my money which is just addiction. I know it can not help me which caused me to later stop.

You're point bro, this is just the easiest and the fastest way of start chasing lost as a gambler even without you knowing. Possibly you will be thinking let me just try it for the very last time maybe this time will fix everything you lost so far but you will be amazed when you will end up repeating same mistakes a thousand times without nothing to show. However, you don't have to stake over and over again in proving a point, if it's not working out then forget it because the more you keep forcing it is the more you keep on losing money. Moreover, gamble is not a die hard game, just bet the little you can afford and enjoy the fun.

[freedomgo]

so, are you one of those gamblers who keeps doing "one last deposit" or not?

I can honestly say, no. Why? Mainly because I have a very limited bankroll. So, even if I really wanted to make that one last deposit in the hope of winning some of my recent losses back, I just can't. There's nothing to deposit.  I guess that's one silly advantage of not having that limitless bankroll, you're always restricted, especially when it comes to money.  I do understand why some people really have no control over that matter, even when facing similar financial difficulty. Not only do they want to win back their money, but they are also probably chasing that euphoric feeling when you finally win something. That's what their brain is constantly looking for and what drives them to always make that one last deposit.

Sounds funny but I'm also on the same foot dude. Sometimes I get tempted and chase my losses, but most of the time I just can't, no matter how I wanted to because my balance is insufficient. And that means one last deposit is actually one last deposit, no chances to add more or even increase my winning potentials.

At one point, it could be an advantage since I got to control my losses and stick with whatever I can afford losing, but on the other hand, it could be a missed opportunity to win especially if luck happens to be on my side. But at the end of the day, limited bankroll or not, we should be disciplined enough to manage our emotions, or else we will get carried away with greed and ruin everything we have on our bankroll.

It's a big fat lie, just like tye OP said in his topic. Chasing loses and not accepting tye fact that you have lost is another level of danger and addiction that creeps in unknowingly. I believe its a natural occurrence, to get back what you have lost, and doing all you can to do so. It therefore needs extra act of diligence, discipline and emotional control to pay deaf ears to such emotions and feelings when you are been faced with reality of loss that you incured by yourself. For me, walking away is the best option. Not watching, not plannings on how best to recover, not thinking so hard and fighting yourself, just walk away

[Hewlet]

so, are you one of those gamblers who keeps doing "one last deposit" or not?

You can't compare the urge that comes with trying to play again after every trial to buying food items that you're at least sure you're not loosing anything rather than the fact that every item bought is entirely yours.

One of the things a gambler should learn is to make a direct fix on when to stop and to be intentional about it so your emotion doesn't make you to continue gambling at the time you should normally stop based on your schedule. If you're not disciplined enough such that ones you decide to stop you stop, you're certainly going to gamble in an irresponsible manner.

Instead chasing losses, it is better you end your gambling activities and save the rest money. You can back to casinos other days and no hurry chasing losses but calm down your emotion. If you can do that, your minds will not tells about chasing losses. That is normal but you can handle it with right and should not have a problem as you learned about discipline, self-control, diligence and other things needed. If you follow your discipline and others, you will walking away from casinos without thinks too long.

[OsaiEmma]

when i lose in gambling, without getting anything back, my brain starts to think "if i hadn't gambled, i would still have my money.", i know i was regretting when gamble, but the funny thing is, after this thought, the brain just starting to think about "maybe with one more deposit, to get back what i lost before." of course this just a trap, its a lie!. 1 depo turns into 2 or 3, and in the end i only stop when i have nothing left.

this is where discipline plays a crucial role. good discipline, control, and risk management are the best choices, but it's not easy. i often try to chase my losses, and for me, the only way to stop is by limiting my access to transfer money. only then can i stop thinking about "one last deposit."

i believe this happens not only to me but also to a lot of people here. even though they talk about "control yourself" in the comments, in reality, some of them also unable to stop when lose and keep making more deposits. then, after losing everything, they come back to the forum and give suggestions like "you have to control your gambling activity."

Lol, this is a very fun write up OP, what u truly need is discipline as u said earlier, but it is truly easier said than done. So many people knows this, but they don't practice it. Being disciplined is a very crucial skill every gambler should have.

so, are you one of those gamblers who keeps doing "one last deposit" or not?

Well luckily for me, I don't gamble too much because, I hate loosing money, so I gamble only on sports games, and unless I'm sure of a game, although I know there is no sure game, I don't bet. If maybe I lose the game, I withdraw from it immediately, it may seem like I stay disciplined, but in reality, I'm just a conservative gambler who hates loosing 😁.

[Webutxo]

This is not a general thing but a personal thing. Lack of experience is the reason you see almost every person push themselves in chasing a win when they first lost. Sometimes in situation were they won too, you see them also chasing more win. The mind is what has been affected not the regular thing. You know the funny part of it all. The win is not a big win yet they lack control of their habit. Imagine if they win a big win. Addiction is what will come next for such a person. It wont be visible to the eye until they are deeply addicted.

It's desperation to make money and get back what taken from gamblers is why many gamblers chased after many deposit and after lot of trials, they lose everything later. If you want to make money. Some people don't know that money stake on casino is a forgone money, what's left is going to be determine by what you predict, if your prediction is accurate like you said, you are going to get back what you stake plus what you gain as profit from prediction.

Some people believe that if they don't quit, they don't know if they might be lucky to win this next trial but what they need to ask their self is what is the assurance of winning even if you make 10 times deposit of the original budget. Gambling isn't designed to make any special, you are going to lose it the system doesn't want you to win and you are going to win if it's your time to win, there is no two way about casino winning and not by the time you deposit.

everything is funny, when we are seeing a stupid thing from gambler. we can laugh for them but for a lot of gambler being discipline was very hard.

everyone hat losing, not just a gambler, a football players, a businessmen all of them hate losing. but I have to congrats to you if you are able to control yourself, because a lot of gambler outside need to get trapped to "one more deposit" before learning to discipline or trying to find a way to stop to make another deposit after losing

I don't think it works this way in gambling. The moment you feel like getting money by all means or think gambling is a way to make some money for yourself, it can drive you to a point you never expected.

It is better to have a clear mindset about knowing the reason why you are gambling, as this helps one stick to the limits they have in mind. However, when you see it as a medium through which money can be made, it can even cause you to have more reason to increase your target.

[Sonia_123]

That is true, one does not gets satisfied until you achieve what you want which makes gambling interesting, depositing more than one game at a time does not go down well with me , so I stick to just one game at a time.

When you deposit more than one game you need to know how to manage and control it since gambling involves alot of risk.

[darewaller]

There are so many people who think that they can chase a loss and somehow get it back, and that is the root of every problem. Lets say that you have played a coin flip, a simple game in it's reality, heads or tails and nothing more so there is nothing that could be strategic about it.

And you flipped it, called tails ten times, came in heads ten times, so you lost all your money, you would straight up think "well I should deposit some more, what are the odds of 11th one being heads again?" and keep doing that, until you reach heads, and you realize after a while, it's always 50% , every flip is 50%, so you have 50% chance to lose even more. There is no need to chase a loss, you will only lose more, stop doing that.

This is one of the wrong mistake many gamblers do make most especially those that are desperate about making high returns from the casino. Even most of this newbies tends to fall for this situation but this isn’t a good approach towards gambling at all, chasing after losses for recovery will only result into more loss because we are so desperate about making recovery and such gamblers wouldn’t even care if her or she is making reckless and careless decisions all they want is just make recovery.
Let approach gambling the smart way to avoid so much losses.

[Hyphen(-)]

everything can happen behind the screen. but this can be a lesson to learn, never follow your brains when losing, if you are trying to do one more deposit, you are ready to losing more money. because no guarantee because of you are making more deposit, you will win, only the lucky gambler that achieve that. if you are unlucky gambler,  you will end up with lose all of your money from several times you are making deposit.

so, are you one of those gamblers who keeps doing "one last deposit" or not?

When losing in gambling, I don’t any method you will adore at that moment will work for you because you are emotionally down then and will be looking anything to bring you back to winnings which will only take luck to do that for you.

Depositing more money to gamble more is just like waste of time because no matter how do it, your emotions will have a role to play in your games which will lead to lose of more money because you are just after revenge or to make your money back.

Taking some time out of gambling will help because you will have time to think about other things before coming back fully; but intending to deposit money for the last is a scam, you will lose the money and still find more to deposit.

[Asiska02]

Even myself, I always fall on it. Good thing I'm in control with my bankroll, and even if I do lose at some point, but I'm losing just a manageable amount, that's the good thing if you're still in control of your own emotions and decision-making.

The idea of one last deposit is really tricky and if you’re used to it, believe me that you’ll exhaust all your money and you won’t be able to account for any profit from it. One last deposit when you still have money in your account cannot be the last deposit as long as you lost the game, you’ll still want to try one last time again and that goes on until you’ve exhausted your bankroll too.

Gambling deals with your emotions more than you can imagine, if you allow it to get over you too much, it’ll be the one to control your decision making process more than yourself controlling it. Once you’re able to deal with your emotions, you’ve won some part of you over the market as being a gambler, you’re already one step ahead of what you’re already working on.

[danadc]

It all depends because if we use a final deposit that we had from money we were willing to lose, it's not bad. The problem is that when we go to play and we've already spent the money we had to spend, we have more money that we shouldn't spend. A final deposit with money that shouldn't be spent is deadly; it's something I don't recommend. Besides, you lose discipline and any gambling plan; it's not good.

[GiftedMAN]

It is better to have a clear mindset about knowing the reason why you are gambling, as this helps one stick to the limits they have in mind. However, when you see it as a medium through which money can be made, it can even cause you to have more reason to increase your target.

The mindset is to come and double your money if you are not gambling for fun this is no longer a long talk. If you can stick to a particular amount and stop gambling when you get to that range then you are in control of yourself but when believe that you can win after losing get ready to lose more because the game house does not make you a millionaire unless you are lucky to hit the jackpot.

Unknowingly as you said, no I don't think so. Those that chase after losses knows what they are doing, you know there are some certain things that can be done unknowingly but not when it has to do with chasing loses. I can only agree with you if you're referring to those fun gamblers but as for those who are gambling for profit I doubt it reason been that they don't let go off their losses so easily, as for those fun gamblers they easily let go even though they will want to try one more time they won't go with the feeling of recovering from thier past loses maybe on the process of doing that they might be lucky to win an amount that will cover their past loses.
