You are right, whatever the situation whether winning or losing then it is better to stop with the aim of calming down. Also, don't forget to do research first so that we don't have the wrong mindset in responding to gambling.
Refreshing your session either you are in the winning side or in the losing will keeps you away from exceeding to your set limitation, as long as you are capable to control your emotion you have a good glimpse of preventing yourself getting addicted, it's always your choice and your own will that's why most of those who got addicted are people who unable to think clearly those who intend to win more but unfortunately they end up losing as they can't control their own greed.
I think "Accept the loss" is the most important point on the list because it’s key to minimizing risks in gambling. Main reason many lose a lot in gambling is that they can’t accept a loss, they try to chase it, only to end up losing everything, sometimes even money that wasn’t meant for gambling in the first place.
This is the kind of discipline we need to develop. From the start, we should understand that gambling has only two outcomes: winning or losing. Knowing how to handle both is just as important as placing the bet itself.
To accept the loss and to stop chasing after the loss with thoughts of recovery is the best approach after the loss has been encountered and it is best for one to relax, take a stroll, go for a swim or partake in some other fun activities within the time frame inorder not to brood about the loss.
I do experience loss often times but I try to reduce my gambling bets once my the frequency of my loss is getting too high. Even changing to other games may not help because I believe gambling requires a calm emotional response, else whatever we do after being upset will always tend to zero profit and more losses.
You are absolutely right, this is something a lot of gamblers find it hard to do instead they try to avert Their losses by gambling more to recover what they have lost. I remember the times I tried to get back what I lost, 80 percent of the time I lost everything 20 percent times I got it back with profit but if the times that I lost outweighs the times I won it means that I lost. Thinking about what you have lost too much can tempt you into gambling again, accept the loss and look for something else asides gambling that you can use to get the money you need.
The numbers of chances to win and recover back is way far from the chance of risking to lose more, better analysis and wise choice of your decision making to losing a lot.
