There are times when we can't control our emotions - like when we're losing and become aggressive because we want to win more, or when we chase losses and make reckless moves. Neither usually ends well. How about you? Which type of gambler are you, the kind who gets aggressive when losing, or when winning?

For me its definitely more aggressive when winning but the only catch on that is that i usually set limits and or breaks to compose myself and then resume once I feel good in my gut and shoot for the stars! When I'm losing i usually throw in the towel only to pick it back up again once I'm made whole again

Apparently, our human psychology is structured in such a way that if we lose, we instantly extrapolate this feeling and begin to consider ourselves complete losers, who immediately remember everything we have gone through before.
Well, this feeling also works in the opposite direction, that if the gambler wins, then he immediately imagines that his skills are perfectly honed and now only they are victories ahead and such a feeling can very easily serve the head, that the gambler will stop being careful in the strategy that he supported.

I do believe that feeling mixed with faith can lead to sure outcomes sometimes. Whether you think you can or you can't you're right mentality. You have to surely try and keep up a positive mentality or I fear that a lot of people tend to "lose it" or they basically find a way to give in and let themselves down, they fall into a slump. Hopefully we don't stay in slumps for too long though and "throw in the towel" for too long and I hope that everyone's luck here is good and wins their bets!
