However chasing losses will always be a bad idea when it comes to gambling, not least because casinos apply random algorithms to every game which makes the outcome at the end of the session always unknowable, on the other hand I'm not going to say that the idea won't work because of course anything can happen if they manage to get lucky, but what we have to remember is that it's very difficult to get that good luck to reach the recovery stage or to restore all the losses you've experienced.

And it's also a nonsensical idea to chase losses where you've lost money, and we should be able to think in this direction that it was gambling that made you lose money in the first place, and it doesn't make sense to chase losses in the same place, obviously. And as you said, in the end it will most likely only increase the amount of loss and this has been proven because there are enough cases like this where chasing losses creates a much worse situation.
Chasing the lose is a normal thing that many gamblers still do because they thinks that they have the other chances to wins after lose for some money. They will not see that they don't have a big chance to wins in gambling instead just lose for more. They may gets wins but that doesn't mean they can recover all of their money that has been gone in gambling because their losses will still big than their wins. So if people can realizes about their lose and don't thinks about recover or chasing their lose, they will not do that instead just leave the casinos.

Hopefully, people will knows that if they still chase losses, they will only lose more money that they can't afford and will not have a big chance to gets their money back. They must realizes that if their money is gone in gambling, that means they must stops their gambling activity immediately. Otherwise, they will not have a chance to stops their gambling activity before all of their money is gone. Their losses will becomes bigger and have a chance to becomes addicted to gambling.

Yes and they are gamblers who only know or only see gambling in terms of winning opportunities but do not understand as a whole that however losing will always be a part of gambling, therefore as you said there are still quite a lot of gamblers who take such actions in order to recover something that has been lost. This means that they only see gambling in terms of winning opportunities regardless of the situation, on the other hand yes I understand what you mean where they can win but it is very small to get a big win for all the losses they have experienced and that is true.

That's what they should pay more attention to, or that means they should know how the impact will occur when they try to restore something that has been lost and this is also the reason why a gambler must have a correct understanding of the whole of how gambling really is, don't just look at the chances of winning but also look at the risk consequences.
