After a big loss I would stop for a few days and then bet less for a while. Just chill out and watch lots of TV or go for a run to clear the head.
I suggest keeping track of your daily gambling spend via a wall calendar. It really helps me pinpoint when I'm losing control.
Goatwack your one of a kind brother crack me up✌It's all relative of course, but after a sound beating I tend to sulk for the remainder of that day, ruing my inability to stop chasing the equalizing wonder-hit that never comes.
Next day, when I've calmed down and there's no more furniture left to smash or cats to fling out of windows, I'll rationalize what occurred prior, deconstruct it if you will.
General conclusion drawn is that I was a hapless weak-willed dopamine fiend chasing the slot dragon, and so a little later I'll vow to never repeat that again.
Do that a few times and you'll get to what I'm doing now, abstaining through sheer stubbornness and only opting to gamble once a month within a budget. It's been working tickety-boo for a while now, albeit after 7-8 years of PAIN
I never give all of a win back, but say i hit a wildline for £200, ill probably play back £50 before withdrawing, in the hopes of hitting another nice win, usually fails. =)Its good to do something positive if you get a decent win,do something nice and treat yourself or others,
spunking it back really defeats the whole object of gambling ( not saying I havnt done my share of spunking).
Think the days of playing for pleasure are long gone, much better ways of using money nowdays.
Also it does bring home the fact that numbers on the screen actually mean something.

Gives me a bit of mess around money for tommorrow, got to walk the dog now (yes its raining but hes going
to stare at me until I take him) then make Sunday Dinner.
Got any vods of you actually doing this?I used to go crazy like many.. but now that i know our results are tracked and system control the RTP long term, i know that what i lost under the RTP will return eventually.. and it always does... so always that i don't even bother anymore. The system is so controlled that i can predict the future like dam crystal ball.. suffer here knows.. im the predicator! Makes it now pretty boring as i know when/how much im due.. then when i get it i know when it's over and when i'll rip because i reached my "ceiling". I don't really care people argueing that anymore.. after 3 years streaming i could call everything so precisely that's not even debatable anymore.. either everything is completly controlled or i am a super living crystal ball with superpowers....
