Mostly, here I hear about how dangerous loss is, it ends many lives and can put someone in big trouble. This is a clear issue, and people are protecting themselves from it. However, there is another thing that can also ruin one's life, and that is winning. Winning is the sweet and a pleasurable trap where you can stuck your life happily without knowing that it engulfs you until it comes to an end.
When you win, you think that you know gambling better and assume that luck is on your side, which leads you to jump into a big risky bet. You start losing, and at that stage, you change your mind to recover the money that you lost and start chasing it, falling into the trap. All your winnings and original money are gone, leaving only regret and sadness on your side.
The purpose of making this thread is to share your experiences with others about how you lost and fell into this hidden and unknown trap. The second piece of advice is that whenever you win, keep that money and leave for the day before you lose all your money.
You are an idiot if you win big amount of money from gambling and it's the sole reason why you decide to use all the money to try your luck again, it means the person doesn't deserve the win in the first place. All I see here is complete greed of a gambler.
Many people just believe that winning happen for a reason, if it happened once it can happen again, while I agree to this there is also a part that it might never happen again, I don't take winning for granted.
It's like buying a shovel to dig the ground for gold and after many ground covered you luckily come across a bar of gold, you thought there should be more without thinking about how much energy you have spent on digging.
Every win as a gambler must never be taken for granted.
