My mnemonic for lose vs loose: A "loser" is someone who loses, i.e. does not win/gain. I think this is easier to remember, because we are exposed to this word "loser" quite a lot. So "lose" is the word for "not winning" (or similar worded). "Looser" on the other hand we don't see very often. The meaning is "more loose".
