    • How do you deal with near misses?
    • Do you gamble more to try your luck again or do you just quit?
    • What is the emotional implications of having a near miss for you? Mine was a mixed feeling of upset and laughter. I almost cursed Dembele for scoring that goal Grin

    Let me hear from you.

    It sure have a way of making you loose control of your and alot times I experience it I get so annoyed and might even pour out the aggression on anyone around me. And I believe ots quite hard in trying to handle near missed in gambling but sometimes I try my luck and if it doesn't I put a stop to  it entirely or at that moment.nevertheless there are so many implications and again when you experience this you need to brace yourself and focus on something.

    Near misses are what I hate the most. 1 point difference or sometimes just 0.5. What's more annoying is when it's a parlay and it's the last line of it. I mean, you are expecting to win, and suddenly it's all gone. That's a killer and really difficult to forget.

    I think I have experienced this kind of thing many times, and it made me accept it more easily when it happens again. It will still make me hate myself for not adjusting the spreads or for being too greedy, but I can overcome that regret for a day and forget it the next day. Having the experience does work wonders, and it's going to make a gambler handle it easier, even if it happens over and over.[/list]
