Loss chasing is a situation in which a player proceeds to make a bet in anticipation of retrieving money lost in earlier bets, or even earlier sets of games, thereby increasing the level of risk leading to further losses.

Psychological Factors: 493m2o

Players can be dominated by emotional reactions, including frustration, despair, and feeling that a win is “due” on the heels in a run of losses, undermining any kind of rational decision.

Higher Chances: 2p4z4

Loss chasing will often see players betting more than before, which introduces a high level of risk for substantial financial loss, and can deplete one’s bankroll.

Cycle of Loss: 5b4o1h

Chasing gamblers may fall into an enabling circle of ever-losing money, which is the downward spiral in gambling behaviour, making it difficult to retreat.
