So my question is, how do you personally deal with tilt? Do you stop betting for the day, reduce your stakes, or maybe change sports altogether just to reset your mind? I’d like to hear how different bettors handle this, since losing streaks are really part of the grind no matter how good your strategy is.

In my gambling session, I always have a rule that I will stop my gambling session if I feel that I have won enough or my bankroll is empty. In case like losing streak, I chose to pause my gambling session for some days to weeks to avoid experiencing too much emotion and frustration due to continuous losing.

I opt to calm down before gambling again to avoid revenge gambling and any sort of chasing losses activities. I go back to gambling when I calm down and there is no feeling of frustration or agitation since this emotion will greatly affect my mental state during my gambling activities.

I understand why you took a break when things got out of control as we all are aware that emotions can turn gambling dangerous. When one works himself to death in frustration, the outcome is almost never to his advantage. Space enables you to relax, and hence, you are back to your rational decision-making process. I believe you are doing the correct thing by this, because we have to always remember that there are risks involved with the gambling game, and the only solution that can be offered to the problem is to ensure that he does not get carried away. However, by being able to determine when it is time to stop and when to start again, we will be a lot safer.
