I personally have never done it and often gamble just for fun without any planning to be further involved in gambling, but if it is needed, of course tracking progress in gambling is something we can do in order to see the progress of every bet we make, be it a win or a loss, with this recording of course we can get a clearer picture of the patterns and trends in our gambling activities so far,  so indirectly it will be able to help us make wiser decisions in gambling including in terms of finances, in addition, tracking progress in gambling can also make us identify our strategies, skills and weaknesses in playing and that way we can improve any weaknesses that we may have so far in gambling.
