Bet adjustment is actually about the management of risk and emotions. Pursuing after losses through bets increase can be potential danger, because a single wrong turn can erase you. Increasing after a win may feel safe, if you will be betting with the profit, yet it can as well backfire when the streak stop abruptly. From my view, I will prefer staying with consistent bets with slight adjustment, because stability provides better chances of lasting longer to avoid tilt. The concern is securing your bankroll at first, not going after fast swings.
However in reality, many gamblers become increasingly greedy when trying to adjust their bets. The larger their bankroll, the easier it is for them to double it on the next bet, even though they know and are aware of the potential losses. As long as their bankroll is large, gamblers tend to be careless when placing bets, sometimes winning but often losing.

I've experienced this myself and it's something I've experienced before. It's difficult to control myself and my urges without being compelled to place more bets when my account balance is high. Previous wins serve as a starting point for hoping for bigger wins, but unfortunately, this approach ultimately leads to crushing losses.
