Yes, so the point is that there is always a response or reaction issued by someone when they experience defeat but it also depends on whether the person is a responsible gambler or not, it does not mean that a responsible gambler will not have any reaction but the annoyance or disappointment they will feel will not be too significant and different from irresponsible gamblers such as those who are addicted.

And maybe I will repeat something I have said before that the issue of responsibility does not depend on a person's financial situation but rather on whether they have a correct understanding or not of the concept of gambling, especially about winning and losing.

For me, gambling is a choice, in the sense that you are free to choose to gamble or not at all but the best thing is to try that every decision you make must be based on rational considerations.
Right.

A responsible gambler will also feel that loss and that's why whether you have a lot of money, a responsible gambler or just casually gambles. You're going to feel it anyway.

And that's why there is no status of life that this feeling will give to every loss that we make when we bet. Risking is our decision and it won't need any validation for how well are we doing in life and our financial status is.

Yes, it does not mean that when you become a responsible gambler as suggested by many people then you will be free from the risk of losing, not like that, because no matter how good your approach to gambling is, the risk is still a possibility that will definitely befall you and all gamblers at certain times, but one of the reasons why we are always advised to be responsible gamblers is because when we realize the risk then we will not feel too emotional or regretful when defeat occurs, and another benefit is that we are also likely to avoid various impulsive actions and decisions, because usually it is always triggered by dominant emotions. And also yes, life status such as whether you are rich or poor, the feeling of discomfort over defeat will definitely be felt but it will not be too deep when you are a responsible gambler. So whoever you are, only you know what is best for you.
