I have this gambling problem. Sometimes, after I lose for many rounds, I tend to up my stake, hoping to recover what I lose.
But that only ends up in more loses for me.
For instance, I bet $10 and loses 5 round.
Then, I bet 50, hoping to recover my lose.
Still, I lose, I then bet 100.
And I lose and I only intend to bet 10 per round, regardless of win/loss, but I find myself giving into my emotions sometimes and overbet after multiple loses, hoping to recoup my money.

But that only leads to me losing more.
For example, I bet $10 and lose 5 rounds.
Then I bet 50, hoping to recoup my loss.
I still lose, so I bet 100.
And I lose, intending to bet only 10 per round whether I win or lose, but sometimes I catch myself giving in to my feelings and betting too much after several losses, hoping to get my money back.
How can I overcome this problem?
Hey,
what you describe is called "loss aversion" in psychology - the phenomenon that people value losses more than wins. So this is not your individual problem per se, but completely normal.
The problematic aspect is probably rather that you have an incipient loss of control in gambling, which is reinforced by loss aversion. Important first steps can be:
set yourself limits, both in time and in the amount of stakes, and stick to them consistently.
1-2% of net income as a monthly budget is generally considered unproblematic gambling
Accept losses. Any form of gambling is mathematically designed for long-term gambling to result in a loss. The mistaken belief that you can make or get money back from gambling quickly leads to problem gambling
Open yourself up to a trusted person who can listen to you and possibly provide you with support. A person you can contact in case of emerging addiction pressure.
Last but not least, I recommend that you seek a personal consultation at a (gambling) addiction counseling center near you. There, your gambling behavior can be discussed more intensively. Better one time too much, than one time too little.
I hope you can already do something with the information.

I mean also for drugs one lands there for years in the jail or gets immediately the death penalty. Probably everything that has to do with addiction is punished severely. They must be overjoyed there sein🤦♂️
This behavior is called Gambling addiction, many Asians are like that, as small children they already start playing card games for money. I used to do that too, but fortunately I didn't become like my uncle, because I can control my gambling behavior. If I win a little, I pay out, and if I lose a little, I don't have the urge to get the loss back.
Tend to overbet after multiple loses!
