There is nothing really wrong if a gambler records the amounts he enters into gambling from the money he loses and the money he wins. Now, to your question, if there is frustration when there are records, my answer to that is that the gambler may feel a sense of failure; he will always see the mistake he made in gambling because he will see the amount of money he lost gambling. especially if it is a large amount.

Of course, he will think and feel regret that he should have used the large amount that he lost for something more important. So, for me, I also think that it is not important if we don't record what we do in gambling. It is probably enough that we know and learn from what we did wrong in gambling.

It is not as if gamblers have too much of a choice, since all the casinos in which I have ever gambled keep records of every single one of the bets you have made over the years and just a little bit of curiosity is needed for a person to see those records, in my opinion if a person looks at those numbers and they begin to experiment regret then it is obvious they have wagered too much money over the years, I say this because I constantly monitor those numbers and I am fine with what I see.

Casinois a business and every record of gamblers win and losses will be kept because it is computerized for them to have prove of past bets of wins and losses. In case there is any problem the government wi ask for those records and if they cannot provide it, it shows that they are not transparent enough to their customers or government. In our own gambling lives, I don't think that it is relevant. What is important is that we should only gamble with an amount of the money that we can afford to lose, so that it will not affect our mentality a d emotions.
