However, any person will only learn about the fear of losing money when he makes a large deposit and starts playing with it.
No one is afraid of losing big money, but if we are talking about tens of thousands of dollars, then any person will start to play more calmly and more measuredly in gambling, and also make bets much more thoughtfully, because he will feel responsible.

The amount of money doesn't make a person responsible at all. I have seen and heard of people losing millions of dollars in gambling. Why do you think they lost that much? According to this logic, they should've felt responsible and shouldn't have lost that much money in gambling, but the actual reality is that the size of your bankroll isn't the driver of your emotions but it's your nature that does. If you are responsible by nature, you can control yourself even if you have $100 in your bankroll, and if you're not, you won't be able to do it even with a million.

It's difficult for emotional people to have control over themselves because whether they are winning or losing, they will feel emotional and their emotions will make them make decisions that they shouldn't make and that makes them either lose more or lose what they've gotten so far from their session.
