I’m not a regular gambler nor an addicted gambler but I recently experienced a terrible chasing loss that start with small amount. I’m on a day off on my job right now due to my minor flu. My feeling got better while I don’t have things to do on my work dormitory so I decided to just gamble for fun only.
My game start by just betting minimum bet on a blackjack table with my initial deposit of 85$ which is my signature campaign earning last week. I lose my initial bank roll with just few bets on consistent losses. I decided to deposit again but this time with higher bankroll which is 250$. I bet twice the minimum bet this time since my bankroll is higher, the result is much terrible loss.
Lastly, I deposit 1800$ to have a better bankroll again, This time I’m betting like a high roller and lucky manage to recover my losses and bag 150$ profit.
Conclusion: I will never gamble again when I’m bored or chase loss small amount. With this exhilarating experience. I think I will stop gambling for a long time and reflec on what dumb thing I do today.
Chasing Losses is exactly what has kept many gamblers where they didn't expect to be today. Not everyone gets lucky when chasing their losses because instead of recovering, you'll find yourself losing more and more until it gets to the point that you can no more accept defeat, you look back to your history and find out you've lost more than you planned to in the course of chasing your loses, and if you don't get a hold of yourself, you end up ruining not just your day, but your plans for the future, if not your life. This is the actual reason it's very important for every gambler to have a gambling limit, whether you're gambling for fun or not. Many gamblers who lost huge amount of money didn't really plan to go gamble, some just wanted to try it out for fun, or maybe you just went with a friend to a casino and then you find yourself rolling and loosing.
