People are having trouble because they are never ready to move on, especially after losing, and they will do anything in their power to get their money back. This is a common trap in gambling, and the thing is that people need to play smart when it comes to gambling. We know that pushing might bring luck, but when you do that, you should be aware of how dangerous gambling can be, and there are simulators that make it more interesting so that even if you lose, you will always try again. Control is crucial.
No acceptance from them and that's why they're having hard time in moving on. They have to accept and realize it that losing is part of gambling and we should be prepared for it. When we win, we can't forget that because it's one of the happiest moments that we have. And when we lose, we can't also forget that because it makes us frustrated with that and so, we only have to remember it for a few moments and then change our minds that we're ready to move and we shouldn't sink to the losses that we've made for so long. Because this makes us emotionally attached to it for so long.
As there's nothing you can do about your loses and like that statement mentioned above you, it's a trap whenever you feel that urgency to deposit more in order to try recovering your loses, most of the time the outcome still not going to favor you, ending up losing more money, unlike if you set your mind to accept the outcome then you can simply quit away and forget about your loses.
It's a trap when you have no acceptance in yourself. And that's why it's one of the first move that most gamblers need to have. When we've lost, we just accept it so we can move on and look forward to another day. Because if not, you're right that we'll be trapped on it and that's where the worse things could happen. As you have said, more losses could come and you'll lose grip to yourself because you'll start to become emotional and that's going to make you have difficulty in quitting because the losses have added on top of your recent. And what you want to do is to recover it all which is unlikely to happen.
