I made a very wrong decision on a game I staked today and this is unlike me because I don't normally check on my games until its settled because sometimes you will tempted with some crazy things like cash-out which is what I did today and although you won't blame me to some extent but still if I was patient enough as the final results if the games came through and Instead of winning the whole money, I got only a fraction of the funds.
Two things are involved. Yes, you are not patient enough, but you made a decision based on your mind, so don’t feel like you have made a wrong decision, but if you have waited, you will definitely enjoy it because, as you said, your betting strategy is not to view the game you played until after the game ended so that you will claim you lost or won, but the two things here are that you failed to follow your strategy. That is why you are regretting, and again, you make a decision based on fear of losing.
Because if not for the fear of losing, you will have let the money go, and you will definitely enjoy your profit at the end of the day, but it's not still bad; you have to take a lesson and you know your mistakes. So you will never make sure mistakes are made again; that is only an improvement.
Yes indeed, cash out when the match hasn't ended is like something about fear of losing because after all, I've experienced it too. But after that incident, I no longer cash out even though there is still a chance to do so. Because really, when betting I should at least be prepared to lose because if I'm not prepared to lose, then the indecision might lead to regret like what you experienced about cash out when the match hasn't ended.
But indeed, it also shows that having patience will be better. But it does not rule out the possibility, with the cash out that is done it can make us still get benefits even though it only gets less than it should get. At least, it will make us lucky when the results at the end of the match really lose.
