    Why do pick better when you put no money on the game

    Seems to always be the case for me

    You dont try to chase.
    You dont go on tilt.

    Its a fallacy.

    Why do the losses hurt so much more than the enjoyment of wins?

    bec when you lose oh well you were wrong and its out of your head

    but when you win **** yeah duh i was right, im right more than im wrong

    you run and hot and cold but the hots better remembered.

    and you dont realize just how big the house edge is when your not betting

    an uncertain percent of people who have taken up gambling have the urge to constantly make profit of their money (by this i mean "you always have to have active investments, if youre not making $ every second, then you are losing "value" ") and the fallacy : i can make profit, i will "find" more spots, bet more, win more all the time. Thats why people get overdramatic and dont follow math anymore.
