Ever had a winning streak ruined by one emotional decision?

[giammangiato]

I've never had a good period, my plays are really up and down, but I've been conditioned by emotions (I admit it) and I can also say that it hasn't always gone badly when I let myself be conditioned.
So let's say the exact opposite happened to me, the argument is always the same, probability dominates gambling.

Have you ever been on a good run in sports betting, winning one after another, then suddenly made one wrong move that ruined everything?

That one bet you knew you shouldn’t place, but you did anyway because you got greedy, thinking the streak would never end. It’s crazy how emotion can take over so fast, one bad decision and all your profits are gone.

How about you friends, ever had that moment where greed got the best of you?

The betting was such that I did not win one bet after another but after one or two wins one wrong decision tempted me to gamble more instead of stopping. I often make wrong decisions while betting and regret them later because the difference between winning and losing is very small. This happens not only to me but to most gamblers and it happens to my close friends.

Greed destroys everything for gamblers and destroys your sure chance of winning because if you could have stopped playing after winning and given up greed, you could have reduced the amount of your losses a lot. Greed not only prevents you from enjoying the taste of winning but also throws you into the trap of losing more.

Yeah, I have had a wining streak that got ruined by the silly decision I made. I guess we all know the feeling when we are in a wining streak especially when we see it lasting longer than expected at that point we would start attempting to increase our stake so that to enable us get a high potential return, but the moment you decide to go with this approach that's when your wining session will be over sometimes these look as if the gamble is just controlling everything though I know that its luck but I usually ask myself that must the wining streak end that particular time I decide to increase my stake?

oh yeah been there for sure I was on a solid streak one time felt like I couldn’t lose then I got overconfident and placed this big bet just because I felt lucky of course that was the one that broke the run and wiped out all my wins. I learned the hard way that emotions and betting don’t mix and I should gotta keep the mind cool and stick to the plan.

It's almost always the same, and it seems we all think the same way in those moments Somehow, we feel that certainty that we're going to win, and when we lose, sometimes it's hard to believe because going from having a lot of money to just a little is a strong emotional blow I've had losses like that, and the impact has been so strong that it has affected my personality, It makes me sad I don't know, something happens that really lowers my spirits.

Of course I and everyone here had winning streaks that were ruined by unnecessary bet that greed forced us to make. But you know, its crazy how we are confident that we are going to win that next bet, because we are hyped by winning all previous bets. False superiority always makes us make wrong moves. False superiority happens not only in gambling, but we face it everywhere. And its crazy how quick people recover from false superiority, call it bad luck, and continue falling in the same trap.

We may not be able to have a prolonged winning streak like that being made sustained for a long period, so the better we choose not to fully depend on it whenever it comes as an opportunity, instead we are to gamble and have it in mind that things could come as we wanted and may not also come for us the way we planned it, while losing or winning remain constant, regardless of being emotional or not.

[danherbias07]

A lot of times.

I think it's normal for a sports bettor to be greedy sometimes. There's this thought that you are doing good whenever a winning streak comes, and what comes next is probably increasing the bet for a "supposed to be" sure bet.
Well, I believe that every gambler will be in that kind of situation, but it's up to us whether we can control our emotions. The problem is that most of the time we are going the other way and let luck give us what we think is best for us. It doesn't always work out right. That's a fact.

Yes of course it happens to gamblers repeatedly when you are gambling this you said will kill you emotions in betting,it will make you to regret ever choosing that game you have added but it is too late and nothing can be done ,all you need to do at that moment is to move on consider betting a new one and also be courageous in it if you still want to try ,never kill yourself over a spoiled slip it is just a lesson in case of another time.

Let it happen because that's how we learn and study gambling and ourselves to become better. I've also experienced it due to overconfidence, which I think almost all gamblers experience, or in situations where we need to learn and improve ourselves so we don't repeat the same mistakes.
At the time, I was on a winning streak, but ended up losing because I bet on a league I wasn't familiar with and wasn't popular. I made my pick based on the head-to-head results of the two teams. Due to my overconfidence, I picked the slightly superior team, and that team ended up losing by a narrow margin.
And what I learned from that incident is that before it happened, I had doubts, but when my confidence overcame my doubts, I became greedy and made the wrong decision. I should have stopped and enjoyed my winnings, but everything was ruined because I lost everything. So when I'm gambling and have doubts, it's better to stop, and that's what I've practiced since that incident.

We have moments like this, but one too many is not good; it just shows that greed takes over your session. We have to learn to satisfy our ego and contend with the profit we think is already enough; extending is a big trap and will make us feel sorry and blame ourselves.
This is the line that separates a good gambler from a high-risk one. A good gambler constantly logs off, satisfied with his decision, and he never lets greed take over his decision.

Winning streaks aren't something that happens constantly, when you get lucky for a certain period of time you would experience such but it's foolish to think that it's going to last. This is the reason why a lot of people end up ruining their winning streak is because they start getting too comfortable. It's possible for you to lose everything you have won when you make a little mistake, it only takes one poor decision to ruin your winning steak. If you have made profit up to two times stop making more attempts to win more, greed can make you lose

Suddenly, everything can be lost due to a greedy move. Greed is a powerful trap in gambling. Because greed does not come from the desire to win, but from the desire to win more and that is where logic stops. No matter how long someone is on a winning streak, it does not last forever and there will be a game where this streak will be broken and everything will end. Many people lose their winning streak due to their greed. The best way to gamble is to do it for fun and not just for profit because when gambling is done only for profit, there is a possibility of being very disappointed.

Thank you for conspicuously identifying greed as the greatest challenge associated with losing, most times we allow greed to ruin our chances of winning then channeling the blames on teams. How do you expect winning after predicting 15 to 20 games in one slip when are are not the once playing the games even if we are the once playing it, What  is our chances of getting accurate prediction on all. We accumulate odds then stake with little amount and expect winning at last. To appear successfully in gambling we should eliminate greed in all our stakings

Greed is often what turns a winning moment into a total loss. It clouds judgment and pushes people to keep going, even when the smart move is to walk away. Gambling should always be approached with a clear mind and realistic expectations and doing it for fun keeps things in perspective. The moment it becomes all about profit, the risk of emotional decisions and disappointment grows.

Some things that consistently cause problems for me include being late in making decisions, or overconfident when hype builds which leads to situations that don't turn out as I expected. This situation is truly annoying but it's difficult to avoid so I'm pretty sure some of us have experienced this although in certain situations some may experience it frequently while others only experience it a few times.

Being late to make decisions? Are you doing live betting or what are you talking about? When I get greedy I place more bets for fun with $1, never can this lead to my ruin no matter the amount of mistakes I make.

Betting in sportsbetting can have several conditions including when we make multi bets.
I rarely do live betting but when multi betting is done and when seeing the squad playing of course we have to see the probabilities and possibilities that occur so that decision making becomes important in this case because it is a little regrettable when the multi we have to do is destroyed because of L1 where the conditions are not too possible to bet should but we have done it from the beginning even before the pre-release of the players who will be deployed.

I have been in that situation a few times and one example might be when Liverpool played against Crystal Palace when they played in the Carabao Cup. So the decision making here is certainly an important thing not only about live betting but even if we have pre-match betting, it is still something that must be considered.
