Hey, guys! Are any of you emotional gamblers who often lose because you can't control what you feel? When you lose, do you tend to double your bets or chase your losses, driven by a pride that can't accept defeat? Do you consider this a problem? If so, has anyone here been able to solve this kind of problem themselves, and if yes, how did you do it?
I have this problem, and based on my personal experience, I find that sometimes I get challenged but not too greedy because I don't have a problem quitting when I'm winning. However, when I'm losing, that's where my struggle lies.
That's why I shared it here; I feel that some of you may experience the same challenges, and I'd love to hear your ideas or experiences on how to win this battle so we can enjoy gambling.
The simplest way to resolving this menace is by acknowledging the fact that gambling is not a do or die affair, whereby you must always win all the time, so if only you could have it at the back of your mind that in gambling anything may comes out, you will never have problem ever gambling, because you must not always win all the time, as loses are bound to come sometimes, but your ability to accept it in good faith matters a lot for a healthy gambling lifestyle.
While secondly, I just noticed that one thing that may make a man feel greedy while gambling and losses, is when he/she gambles more than he can afford to lose, of which if you could start gambling with an amount you can always afford to lose, then there is a higher tendency you seeing a positive result.
