Payback’s Pointers #5 – Cold Streaks

One of the toughest things to deal with in gambling is a losing streak. We all go through them, and they are hard to swallow. We start to doubt ourselves and our systems. To try and come out of it we bet less, wind up winning and then get angry that we won but still have not made up the losses. The following week we bet more and lose again and contemplate shutting it all down. Sound Familiar?

Here are the ways to deal with horrible cold losing streaks:

1. Stay unemotional. As hard as it is, remember gambling is filled with wins and losses. Losses are part of this. If you cannot control your emotions, please do not gamble.
2. As hard as it is, you must wager the same amount you were wagering prior and during the losing streak.
3. Trust Your System, Vegas sets traps all the time. Sometimes they get you.
4. Taking a week off is ok. If you do this, it is best to not look at the lines at all so you do not wonder what may have happened.
