Emotions when gambling will certainly determine the future, even people who have limits in gambling can become addicted because the defeats they get make them upset and want to chase the losses they have experienced. It is not wrong to chase the losses they have experienced, but it is unlikely that chasing losses will result in a big win. So at times like this they have lost self-control so that nothing can stop them from chasing losses.
Yes, it's true that there's nothing wrong with chasing losses and OP succeeded in getting them, but keep in mind that there is only a 1% chance of getting money back from previous losses, so don't think that OP succeeded, other people might also succeed, this is a ridiculous and risky method. Of course, people have to stop limiting themselves after experiencing defeat without having to chase defeat.
Some gamblers think that luck doesn't always first but sometimes it comes later which gives them hope and continues to gamble. Luckily, OP had it 1% chance of getting back his losses but can't be sure that it will happen the next time. What if our luck never comes that day, pretty sure we end up empty and regrets which is why it is not advisable to do this unless you have millions and don't care about money.
Perhaps, it was very important to know our limitations, and if that 1% chance it right, then no way we could think about getting back our money.
