I understand you because we are just human beings living in this messy world where we need to survive every single day, we both know that it's not a realistic move because you ended with nothing but losses but I think, somehow, it's understandable as you're just trying to gamble to have more than your supposed budget. The thing is, we should just learn from our mistakes so that these situations will be avoided in the near future. I mean, at first, it's a mistake but doing it again is already a choice.
That's right, what he needs is to learn from his own mistakes and self-control. Whatever he do if he can't control himself from chasing his losses, this mistake will happen again and again. Instead of spending a little money from his income, every money he owns will lose. Most gamblers happen to do this mistake without notice which is easy to say, but it is really hard thing to do.
Well what you say is right my friend, but the main problem is that they always put too much ambition there, like for example they lost and they will try again thinking "hopefully now win to replace yesterday's defeat", they always have assumptions like that but they do it not only once, even every time they gamble and the cycle will continue to fight. Well that's right, I think indeed they should take a short break and think about what exactly is happening to them, doing research is not bad because they also know what is best for them, quitting completely? it's impossible for someone who is already addicted, but yes if they don't want to lose too much there the only way as you said is to increase self-control and limits there.
Honestly I understand they find it difficult not to gamble, but there are other ways that can be done to ease the burden, you can reduce your budget when you want to gamble, lower the nominal bet and increase the rest time is very good. Rather than you continue to be there chasing victory, I'm sure you must be tired of all that and you can try the method as I said above, hopefully you succeed and be consistent.
