Chase
1 min read
Another bet to offset the loss of previous bet.
In the context of gambling, particularly in casinos, the term "chase" refers to the practice of continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover losses. This often involves increasing the amount wagered in hopes of winning back money that has been lost in previous bets.
Chasing losses can lead to significant financial risk, as gamblers may end up betting more than they originally intended in an effort to recoup their losses. It is generally advised to avoid chasing losses, as it can lead to a cycle of increased losses and potentially problematic gambling behavior.
