That's why gamblers click 20% faster the next roll button when they lose, to get back what they lost immediately. I have felt that and experienced that when I was losing. I have also noticed that when I win, I become immediately calm and don't make my next bet soon until I realize what I lost, what I won and what I'll possibly win or lose if I roll the next game.
