Most, if not always, allowing emotion to dominate while playing in any type of gambling more likely ends with a big risk, though there might be some who can break-even or win some after gaming but most of the time the outcome is not favoring the gambler side, to the point that they can lose a lot of money.

Controlling emotion is really big part of gambling since it’s the most common enemy of gambler aside from house edge. It’s very hard to control it if you are just an occasional gambler because you are still not immune whenever you encounter a consecutive bad losses.

Most of the time, it always ended to lose since you will bet higher amount more than your usual wager just recover quickly while your bankroll will be short since your bet will be higher than usual. This is the part people will surely loss when they failed to made another  bet since their remaining bankroll is already not enough to make another bet.

It's very hard as from time to time there are changes with your adrenaline and you keep pushing and trying to win more which being produce by your emotions, without a good control on it, the chance of losing more would be be the outome of your session, better to pause for a while and stop your gambling session, assess yourself instead of keep trying to win back.

And adding to that, chasing losses are always the first thing when you have that aggression thinking that by adding more money you can have that chance to recover only to find out that you will just lose it all and then regret it after.

Correct. Your bankroll will be shorter that’s why you can easily lose everything if you still bad luck on the next bets when chasing lose.


With aggression inside you, thinking that betting big amount will quickly bring your loses back but that's not how gambling works, without luck, it will be an easy burning of your additional bankoll.
