I don’t even know if this can be called a separate strategy or something that can be defined as a trick that can be combined with other strategies or even used alone without any strategy. But this trick can be combined, for example, with Martingale.
Imagine that you decided to play according to the Martingale system, but with one condition: you use a trick called “The main thing is to stop in time”. It can be roulette or sports betting, it doesn’t matter. And you set a rule for yourself to stop after 3 consecutive wins. In some cases, you are unlucky, but one day, imagine, you won 3 times in a row an amount that suits you perfectly.
What is more rational in this situation? To believe in luck and continue playing or to apply the rule “The main thing is to stop in time”? Obviously, the second. And if you are not an addicted player, you can be in profit with the help of this simple trick.
I know that many gamblers apply this rule to a one-time win as well.

Yes, knowing when to stop even when winning has a way to help us not to chase loses when encountering loses. In everything we do, gambling inclusive, it's best we know when to leave so as to avoid excesses and possible unwanted long-term effect. If I was the one and experienced the three times win, I would do any of these two things

• Already having a gambling budget and disciplined not to deposit more than once, I'll simply withdraw those wins and continue gambling with my normal budget until my gambling session terminated

OR

• I would quit and enjoy my winnings, to return another time and continue the fun

Each of the above patterns works well for the gambler.

Probably, for most gamblers who are not addicted, this is not even a trick or strategy, but a standard behavior. In general, using this example, you can see the difference between a healthy person and a patient with gambling addiction. If a person is constantly losing and has lost the entire bankroll, it does not mean that he is addicted. If a person wins (that is, he has achieved his goal) and, nevertheless, continues to play, then, as in the first case, he loses everything, then this person is addicted.

Quitting is the real win in gambling. Because it is the regular spending of money on a casino that leads to a huge loss over a single decent loss once a month.

But since you bring in Martingale to the context, I dont see how that works here. You cannot say that stopping at some point during the Martaingale will be profitable. It only runs just like any other auto-play method. You might get a big win, but you have to stop there, so that becomes a condition - you might never actually hit that and your bankroll will wash away or you will hit a max bet limit.

You can try being on your toes while playing - trying that 3wins and stop, but it will induce vigilance and lead to anxiety when it does not hit or hits 2wins and then a loss.

It seems to me that the player can wait for this event (three wins in a row) for a very long time. According to the mathematical theory of probability, such an event will definitely happen. However, it can be very distant in time, that is, this event may not happen very soon. At the same time, the consequences of gambling before this event can be catastrophic for the player.

Unfortunately, in my opinion, the rule "the main thing is to stop in time" is not able to ensure the player's win in the long term. Also, the application of this rule is not able to guarantee the minimization of the player's loss. In addition, in a situation when the player is really seized by excitement, he will not be able to apply the rule "the main thing is to stop in time" even psychologically.

Moreover, even if he applies this rule, it will still not make his game more successful. In my opinion, any formalized strategy in games based on luck leads to the player's loss.

Let's consider another situation ... If the player has a real competitive advantage over the online casino or over other players, then why should he apply the rule "the main thing is to stop in time" at all?

'The main thing is to stop in time ' is a strategy that every responsible gambler should have in mind so that they don't over gamble. Knowing when to stop while gambling is being in control, you're not moved by emotion and greed to keep chasing what might not happen. Where I apply my 'main thing is to stop ' is when my budgeted bankroll is exhausted, I stop whether I'm winning or losing. I don't focus on winning any amount of money first before I stop because I might be chasing loses to meet the target. Not knowing when to stop in gambling is like driving a car without a brake system, you can't control yourself until you hit a brick wall and that is addiction.

We not just apply it to wins but losses as well. Having up to 3 consecutive wins or losses, one should be able to stop himself from any further activity. That's simply because you might just have been lucky or unlucky and if you fail to stop at some point, it's either it begins to get bad or even worse. Even for someone that's not addicted, you can apply the simple rule to your gambling and just cash out ones you are able to make a reasonable amount of wins. Remember a little drop of water makes a mighty ocean, we don't have to be too greedy.

Do you also use the Martingale strategy when you win, that is, with each win you double your bet?
I never did this, when I was playing with this strategy, I only doubled the bet in case of a loss, and when a win followed, the next bet was normal, without doubling. In this case, you can stop after three wins without Martingale. It is difficult for me to understand how this can work for roulette, because I am a bettor, and after several wins I will stop anyway, because I do not make many bets in one day.)

It may look like a trick but it's a simple strategy that should be applied by most gamblers to stop when necessary and I know so well that this rule of stopping in time go along way in helping the gamblers minimize losses. It's not just about winning but being able to control ones ability of being addicted so definitely the main thing is to stop in time and avoid story that touches.

Very well mate because setting a stop limit can be said to be a personal risk management in both sides, that is to say you sto limit when you win-win-win or you stop at lose-lose or you stop at win-lose-win.

So regardless of what directions the outcome of the games is in terms of the results, you stop at three points, this is what is the most important at this point in time, this approach is highly effective in all games.

Doesn't work!
I'll skip over the math since I've talked this like 100 times, the thing is that for 4 rounds you're losing at a 22 cents loss every $100, for 3 rounds you have a 21 loss.
By the time you actually hit 3 consecutive wins you have already played more than x15 games, which means you have already lost more than you will be winning.

It simply doesn't work, since you win only 1 time your bet despite going through multiple bets, so while you might feel like you're only winning the problem is that you're winning less than a cumulative los, the only theoretical way to avoid this would be to raise your bet so than when you lose once you next win gives you 2 instead of 1, if you have a chain of 6 losses raise your bet each time so the time you win the 7th time you win 7, but that would also increase losses making this impossible.

Also, what happens if you lose 5 times from the start?  ;D What are the 3 consecutive winnings going to make up for?

You are even extra lucky if you win three times in a row, I have done this before and I messed up on the second try, three times in a row is still not safe unless you really have money left that you can keep risking.

My method is kinda different from yours, I've managed to quench my taste for further winnings when gambling by stopping once and for all if I win, let's say I am prepared to go ten rounds on a slot and my second push on button brings in money I will quit..

I have managed to have better result in gambling simply by following this method, the desire of trying more you can still win more is something I don't like when gambling, I care less about jackpot unlike others who believe that since you are winning in a row a jackpot could be around the corner.

I've watched this brought havoc on few gamblers that I know.

Most of the losing streak usually starts immediately after a series of wins. And that’s the problem with some gamblers, not able to stop when they’ve made a few significant wins, particularly when the wins are consecutive, I’ve also fallen victim of this trap a couple of times in the past and I can say that it doesn’t always end well when the losses starts coming.

I think this strategy is a good one, and can be very effective when it comes to regulating how frequent or how much time a gambler spends in gambling which is a very good way to avoid more losses.

Some gamblers don't know when to stop and that can be a problem for them, winning three consecutive times can be very unlikely but it's possible, knowing how to control yourself when you are winning is important but what would help you reduce losses more as a gambler is knowing when to stop when you are losing. This is more important because it's easy to lose consistently when you are chasing your losses. It takes discipline to stop when you are winning or losing.

If our purpose is to avoid big losses, quitting is the best way. Whatever strategy we use, if we don't know how to stop, we are going to lose. Gambling is not just like when we enjoy betting, we keep on betting. But the fact that money is involved, we really need to think over every losing bet.

Some say the martingale strategy is good, but no. Chasing losses will never succeed but failures. It is still a thing why we need to manage our gambling habits. Staying within our limits is very important unless we have unlimited funds.

The temptation to continue playing will be there especially if we already won 3 times in a row. Our greediness will be bigger and make us difficult to stick to our rule before. Many people fall because of this so they continue playing gambling for one round but unfortunately, that is the time they lose their money.

Those who doesn't remember that it is their mistake will not think stop gambling immediately. They will just keep playing because they want to recover their losses. The rule will be the rule and no means for them because they decide to recover their loss and not stop gambling.

This is what we call discipline knowing the right time to stop your game. If you're not discipline and after profits, you'll not be able to see this strategy as a good one because of your greed. Of course, healthy gamblers already know this and they're applying it. However, it isn't compulsory that it must be a win but it also applies to losses too.

When you win and decide to stop playing, it is much better than being tempted to chase a bigger win, in the end the win that has been obtained does not increase but instead only leaves the initial capital that is owned. Maybe only a few people can stop in time when they win, and of course they are not included in those who are addicted to gambling. Unlike greedy people, they will never be satisfied after being given a win, they will continue to play in order to pursue a bigger win, but the results certainly depend on luck.

Have you also reasoned the opposite?
Let say you applied this same rule and it happens that you lose 3 consecutive times without any winning what would you do at this point? Quit or what actions to take from this process. Please don't be mad at me because sometimes when we think something positively we should also think the other way to equate the gravitational force and magnitude of what are doing. There is no possibility that if Mr D uses the martingale principles he must win straight three times in a role without loses, which you and I knows that winning is by chances.

That's right, when it starts to enter your real life it means that it creates a problem.
Unfortunately i understood from reading that everything happens for money, yes ok, but above all for the dopamine rush you get when you win, that makes you feel invincible. This in fact makes gambling a form of addiction that is difficult to eliminate

What actually detects and determined a responsible gambler is whenever they are able to stop when they should stop and continue, control themselves without the need of being greedy or having to chased what they had already lose. Yes, the truth is this strategy could be good but what if the said gambler experiences the other side of the game without them having some winning would they also continue to make winning? To me at this point it turns to a compulsion where the person has to gamble the next day even after having experienced several losses.

There could be gambler who we would not considered to be addicted to gambling and still do not use this standard, as you call it, specially if we talk about people who are relatively new within the world of gambling and betting, they simply believe good luck is going to be on their side an indefinite period of time and they can allow their greed to take over, as they assume they will change their life in a single session and won't need to work again for the rest of their life.

To be aware of such standard, it requires the gambler to be aware of house edge, the ever-changing nature of gambling and control greed very tightly, the latter it is the most difficult one.

I always do a simple x3 of my initial capital win and get out. If it goes beyond that without spending more money, then I am thankful. Now, this strategy of yours is a good discipline too. It avoids gambling addiction, but it requires a lot of control. I mean, let's get real, after 3 consecutive wins, a demon will start whispering in us, telling us to go on and try our luck, and most of the time we follow that demon.

Whoever can do this kind of strategy is a responsible gambler, but like I said, it will require control. Stopping means giving up or walking away after a win, and when we see ourselves losing, there's also that revenge emotion that will haunt us, and again, it isn't easy to go against it.

It is not necessary to play for the whole winning from the initial rate, each rate may be the same and you can take the winnings from each bet. This will reduce your risks, and you will not lose everything, but of course in this case you will not get x3. That is, you will not be able to triple your winning on the initial rate, but on the other hand, to win so, this must be very great. And let's be honest, this happens extremely rarely, therefore, it is more likely an exception than the rule.

Isn't it basically setting a limit? To do this effectively, one must have strong self discipline. Without it, the strategy is useless especially if you’ve been on a red streak for several days. Stopping in time means setting a limit, knowing when to stop, and following it before things get out of hand or you get carried away during a session. I always do this, and I even reduce my daily limits if I’m struggling to reach my usual higher quota. Strong discipline plays a big role here and you must stay consistent in following it.

Lol, but I just used this strategy last night while playing baccarat and it's effective, I will just stop running two or three hits doubling every time. And with that, if I win then I will withdraw the money and left my initial capital, and then I will stop for while and then be back. It's so effective that I won some last night and today. But still though there are moments that when I think about it, perhaps there is also this element of luck and this won't be effective for long term. In any case I just enjoy it and I even gave my wife some money from my winnings. But let's see, I'm going to play again maybe in the next couple of hours and see how it goes if this strategy is still good for me, of if the element of luck is beside me again.

I think we can all agree that having the discipline to know when to stop is the key in order to have a successful experience during your gambling spree.

There can be two (2) results that may either happen:

• You stop after a certain number of attempts during a WINNING streak; or
• You stop after a certain number of attempts during a LOSING streak.

You actually mentioned the perfect example for this kind of method. In applying the Martingale strategy, the amount waged compounds and doubles the more you lose in the situation. If you fail to stop at a certain losing streak, that strategy can potentially exhaust all your resources in the end.

Wasting more time on gambling results in more losses, I learned this the hard way so I accept that this topic is gambling best advice I've read this 2025, it's something many gamblers won't like because they are desperate. Well this space isn't merciful on the desperate mind either. You f*ck around enough you will find out the hardest way possible.

If you win when gambling, it's unexpected, it's pure luck, it was never meant to happen but it did, you are to quit instantly even when you still want to enjoy the game unless that's your only goal.

If you just want to enjoy the game and go back home with no wins then keep doing your thing, as for me I would rather take the profit and call it a day.

Also when you risk all your money and you lose it all, call it a day and come back another time, you don't have to call someone and borrow money from them, you can't force the tide to turn for you.

I also adhere to some rules in betting that are important to me and my game, and the main thing is to stop in time and leave with the winnings, because if you don’t do this, then why play. I’m not ready to play just for the emotions, I also want to win some money to buy things that I can please my family with. However, I understand perfectly well that gambling is not created for me to win, but for me to leave a lot of money there. Nevertheless, I allocate a small amount for the game that I can afford to lose and not feel it, the main thing is not to cross the line from which I will be forced to continue.

 I think it is hard to quantify and know when to stop. I believe that it's what you feel at the moment. Whenever you feel like you are losing, you should take a step back and breathe so you will know what to do next.

Having a trigger like what op has said is a great help for you but you need to be disciplined enough to follow your own rules if not you would know that you would lose.

That's what they say about gaining weight... you shouldn't overeat, you should know when to stop and you will never gain weight. Knowing when to stop actually means stopping when it's the sweetest, and that can be very difficult, for some even impossible.

It's the same with gambling, you should stop when you are winning, when you are doing well, when it's the best. And that can be hard... When it comes to food, I somehow know how to stop & it's not a problem for me to do that, but with gambling, it's the opposite. :)

Does this also apply for when you are losing? Stop with the third consecutive lose?

Ain't this the biggest challenge for all gamblers, knowing when to stop? If everyone could easily stop their gambling then no one would end up addicted in gambling. It is hard to stop when you are constantly winning because there is always a voice in your head saying what if you win again? it is also hard to stop when you are losing because you will always be hunted by the what if you win the next round?

The premer is a little incorrect, because in gambling, sweets are when you won three times in a row, that is, you have already received sweets and you should stop. )

And with sweet, it is also debatable when you should stop not to gain excess weight, in fact you can eat this cake, but then you will need to burn these Coloria in the gym or on a run. So the way out is always the most important thing not to be too linked and make sure that your actions receive equivalent responses.
In gambling, you can stop after the first winning and it should be as it stops in front of the sweet.

This is a fairly fair and wise rule, in which, in essence, everyone should remain happy. You, having won, receive moral satisfaction and profit, and keep your nervous system in a smooth and healthy state. Isn't this what gambling should welcome from players? Competent management of your desires and control of emotions, as it seems, helps you to experience pleasure and entertainment from gambling more often than to brings the course of the game to the point where you lose and want to catch up with what was lost. As it seems, a timely exit from the games prevents us from getting that addiction, which, once it appears, is very difficult to treat. A measure, like a red flag, should be present in almost all aspects of life.

In my opinion, there is no strategy for games that depend on luck, even if a person put in $5 and played, the next day that person hit a jackpot of $1000 and that person stopped playing for 10 days, when that person returned to play, he would lose constantly to the point of losses exceeding $1000, that is why most people always lose in the long run in gambling. The only way to profit from gambling is if the person wins a big jackpot and then stops playing forever.

Either slot, roulette or sport bets are all game of luck which winning can not be predicted so in a scenario where I have drastic plan to exit gambling for the day when I am lucky to win such a 3 consecutive times based on my plans (strategy), as luck as I know I made the winning by luck, I will opt out and not daring to bet further because then will greeds be implied which as a vulnerable against the house hedge, I may lost it all back to the house. So I will self control and call it a goodbye for the day

Even in some cases, if I have a such 3 consecutive winning plans and I am lucky to win 1 time of a higher odds, I will still call it a goodbye without staying firm that I must complete the 3 times winning.

To be wise enough, the goal is to win and account profit and in no account can we beat the house edge in a consecutive long term. That is in a case we might think once a win is called for other wins  in assurance.

This trick can work for some gamblers, depending on the person being lucky for those consecutive time that they will bet or gamble. Sometimes, even if the person set a rule that after they win 3 times they will stop, I suggest that even if they won twice and lose one, they can should still stop because if they decide to continue so that they can meet up with that lose they had, they could end up losing everything. This is similar to the rules I set for my self in trading, I don't take more than three per day, even if only one trade was successful out of the three trade, I will not take extra trade but that can cause me lose more than expected.

The strategy sounds pretty good and logical, but it seems to me that it has little in common with martingale. That being said, I wouldn't use it. I've been playing slots recently and I think other approaches are needed, like setting a desired limit for myself after which I'll quit the slots. The thing is that I noticed my weakness, and it was that when after a few minutes I was able to add 20% to my deposit due to luck, I did not stop. Although it was necessary to do so.

Yea, stoping in time is good, but the question is, how will an individual gambler be able to stop when he or she knows that he has started getting out of hand, just as you mentioned being in control yea, don't you think that it requires discipline for any gamber to recognize that it is very necessary for him on her to take precautionary measures that will help him not to be an extreme gambler, for me gambling has a  way it work and we must individually as gamblers take those into consideration before we can actually stop at a point, I love the things you've have, it means you know how to go about your gambling and I believe your outlined do and donts are perfectly working for you, personally my method of gambling is doing it with what am capable of and take the it's outcome as it is nothing else, I don't dont do more than my self in gambling and that has keep me going in the said activity.

I find this your strategy very useful in the long run. Practically in a short while it can yield good result for us or not depending on how lucky we are at every specific period but on a long run it is very clear how we can reduce the risk of chasing wins or loss as we gamble thus the strategy is very much sufficient for a being on profit in a long while. I will adapt it this week but instead of limiting my bet to only 3 times I will make it a maximum of 4 because of my bankroll.

It will surely result to premature halt on gambling that is so hard to do but practicing this will be beneficial in long term.

3x winning streak is easy to achieve on games with winning percentage above 50%. This is a good break especially of you are on long breakeven game or losing streak to cut lose easily.

I like this strategy and probably will use this but I will modify x3 to x5 to make it more satisfying on my end.

Hahahaha funny enough to an extend having this as an act of a responsible gambler the truth remains that it is more easier said than done but however if it one can successfully adhere to this it is a good practice for a healthy gambling but in a situation where it becomes much difficult for a gambler to control surely there must be damages just like you said hitting a brick wall and that is exactly addiction, self control and discipline is all that is needed irrespective of whether one is winning or in at lost and the reason while it has always been a major discussion in this gambling session.

I must agree that if someone does not take regular break or stop betting in gambling, then he will never be able to benefit in gambling, his losses will increase. In my past gambling history there are lot of incidents where i win most but can not stop and that is the reason i loss. I strongly believe that if a gambler does not have the ability to stop, then he must lose. Moreover, if he wins a bet and then puts money in another bet immediately, there will be high possibility of loss the bet. That is why taking a break in betting regularly is also an important thing. What strategy one can take but have to take break.

The first time I knew the danger of gambling after you had been able to hit some wins was when I watched a stream where the gambler had won - then kept playing only for him to lose everything back to the casino and then he pleaded that the casino lend him a $1,000 which they did and he was lucky to hit $50k win, made some withdrawals - called his parents about his win and then kept playing and before we knew what was happening he lost the one in the account, made some deposits from the ones he had withdrawn, lost them again until his account went back to $0 again.

I can’t recall his username but that was one of the nastiest experiences anyone could have in gambling - imagine calling your parents that you’ve won a certain amount only for you to lose it back to the casino - it’s a clear example of knowing when to stop, if he knew when to stop he won’t have been in such a position.

Quitting on time is the most difficult thing for a gambler, often in one moment we really can't do according to the original plan, greed is the main trigger of this, but when we can control ourselves by stopping on time, not only with the accumulation of profits but also potentially when getting losses, then that time we have become a responsible gambler. In addition, when we know when to stop, it can minimize the possibility of gambling addiction in the long run.

For the Martingale trick, a simple trick but worth taking into account the potential profit opportunities, it may seem complicated for some gamblers who prefer to play only by relying on luck or gamblers who are just looking for entertainment.

Martingale can be made to work in sport betting as I have said other times, you just have to be patient enough to choose a team from bottom or middle of the standings in a league and stick to them because chances are high they will win at least a game and the odd surely for such team in 99.99% of the cases will be 2 or over so you have a sure win, it can be a single win only during the season or more depending on the performance of the team, the idea is simple, after every loss you wait next game for the team and double the amount you bet. This definitely works though a huge patience is needed as I said and this cannot be applied by addicted players as addicted players cannot stay that long without gambling, they need to gamble everyday and that is why this strategy is not for them.

For your question, the best thing as I assume you talk about addicted gamblers here is to stop in time.

I will simplify it further for you - "Know your limits" and "stop when you feel enough."

Never trust martingale strategy it is highly risky and wipe your balance in no time, it better you can go with strategies like you will win when you hit x wins for the particular day but that doesn't always works cause we will be tempted to play more if we are in loss for the day. So just gamble when you feel like playing and stop when you doesn't enjoy it and money part should come secondary if you don't want to get into addiction in anyway.

Stoping in time is inclusive to gambling but also generally applicable action, whatever one chooses to do stoping in time is a very much big disciplinary measure to that and it's not easy to develop such behaviour or attitude towards ones enjoyable moments especially gambling.

I would say it's very difficult for anyone to hacken to this stoping in time when it comes to wins, making it bigger hits the mind everytime so it's very rare to see guys really stop in time when it's not a loss. but some of us here really do that and it's admirable, knowing that it's time to put an end to the risk you're taking is very important.

I'm a believer and practitioner of stopping in time. There's such a timing. All you have to do is be patient and in control. Lose or win, you stop and come back later, or if you win a considerable amount, withdraw it and hope that you will have the same experience the next time.
Many gamblers lose because they cannot keep up with their emotions and are in a hurry to regain their losses. They have a hard time accepting their losses, so they immediately try to recover them; chances are, you cannot.

Stopping at the wright time when gambling gives you an advantage over a lot of losses that would have come your ways mainly when you are losing, the ability for you to dictate that it is time for you to stop makes you a good gambler and having an edge over other situations that might occur due to your persistence of continuing the game, it prevents you from losses in time and in cash that is setting up your limits.
In terms of winning to it is important to stop gambling immediately after your wins, because you might be tempted to continue to see if you will make a bigger win but before you know it all your wins are gone and you start regretting of your actions of had I know, i should have stop gambling when I won.

If we want to have an enjoyable gambling life, then we also have to avoid gambling consistently. And one reason why some people become addicted to gambling is that they always think about it. For rich people, this is not a problem. But this is a problem for those who only have limited resources. Urging ourselves to gamble despite being troubled already never leads us to happiness but to regrets. This is not just about martingale, but it applies to all gambling strategies.
We don't let our emotions control us, but rather, we are the ones who control them.

A gambler should be able to know this by default. You will always win/lose money depending on what the conditions are, but you need some special abilities to stay in the game; one of those is a GOOD TIMING. You may wish to go further, or you may even get caught up with wannabe opportunities, but discipline must be maintained to stay in the game.

This has literally been saving bankrolls since for years now, even before people started talking about it as a way to control your lose. It's been one of the most effective means of risk management -- bankroll managements.
If it comes earlier than normal, that's just an indication to play a few more times with a lower stake, then quit on time to avoid further loses.

If you have financial constraints, better manage your gambling activities if you can't eradicate it. You should know your limitations so as not to put yourself in a tight position, where you will regret about your actions. Because if you can't handle your gambling desires, it will give you trouble that you may curse this activity because it is somehow ruined your life.
It is on the gambler's hand how he will do in this addictive activity. If he will be a slave of his desires, he will surely go in a rabbit hole but if he knows how to contain himself, this will give him some sort of relaxation after a stressful day. So it is his own choice how he will go about his gambling life.

One-time, 3-time, it wont matter much on which as long we are dealing up with luck based then there's no specific pattern on how you would be gonna handling up your gambling rolls specially on using up martingale or what. If we do deal up with something strategic then it will be that up to you on how you would gonna handling up your wins, whether you do tend to make up those limitations(recommended), or you would be that continuing up to play just because you have intended or trying out to have some fun and make those amounts allocated for such gambling session. It will be that up to you on how you do handle up yourself on such particular condition because if you are that wanting to have that profit then securing out wins when you are in greens will be your outmost priority. We cant be able to deny that majority of gamblers do go after for the win and gain and thats why whenever it do happens then you should know on when to stop.

Addiction is on the time or moment that you cant be able to stop no matter what kind of strategy that you will be that dealing into on which as long you do have the money that you can play with then you will be continuing it out. It totally depends on how you do handle yourself on such conditions when we do play gambling.

Self discipline is very key in gambling...you must know when to stop, know when you are going out of your comfort zone... winning consecutively shouldn't be the only time you should consider taking a pause but also when you are losing, a lot of gamblers even have more issues with this than when they win..after every loss they keep doubling their bet to get back what they have lost uncontrollably... Have a specific amount you shouldn't exceed daily.

Stopping at a certain point is more necessary for psychological rest, it has no effect on winning or losing, because it is psychological rest that will refresh your head and allow you to continue to make informed decisions. Especially it is necessary after a series of failures, so as not to lose on emotions even more. Although in the latter case, the usual equanimity to the outcome will help

gambling should be really personalized anyway you should do whatever suits you the best i sm thinking that if the game you are playing is fact paced and the budget you have isnt much stopping at 3x may make you unsatisfied but how regrettable it will be if you lose at the 5th time and you lose all? lol

If a gambler wins three or more bets in a row, that gambler should definitely stop. Experienced gamblers stop as soon as they make a profit, but inexperienced gamblers, especially those who participate in gambling out of greed for money, have only one target: money. So if a greedy gambler wins three times in a row, he will never want to stop. However, most gamblers basically make this mistake: they continue gambling without stopping where they need to, and eventually end up losing all the money they had previously made, including their account balance.

Addiction is indeed more susceptible to damaging strategies, because the mind is how to bet, and what's worse is when you think about winning a lot and without losing. Addiction not only eliminates strategy but also self-control. When you are addicted, you intend to stop, but when you have money in your hand you immediately want to play again. That's why it's very important to know the limits and know when to say 'enough today I have to stop', but don't be hypocritical, there are many here who are unable to stop when they have gambled, unless they have exceeded the limit.

This boils down to the art of discipline. We all know greed motivates majority of the gamblers, and once we experienced the streak of winning, obviously luck is there and so we take advantage on it as much as we can. But in the end, we still lose them all in just a single mistake of chasing our luck and our winnings.

However, if discipline is there, as much as we want to gamble and win, it's also crucial to know your limitations. Know when to continue gambling and when to stop, that is to prevent yourself from future massive losses in gambling.

Players actually know when to stop but the difficulty of control themselves is the cause.
It seems like what happened to me 2 days ago, managed to make a few tens of dollars from freebet, and decided to play casino games, had managed to get profit and the mind had said stop but ignored and continued to play so that in the end lost everything but it didn't matter because of the results of freebet, so stopping on time is what players know but it is difficult to do because of greed and other things.

Do we have a standard behavior in gambling? I think it is only a common habit, it isn't called as a standard behavior. It has a different definition.  ;)

In the case that gamblers can't stop although they already achieve their goals at that day, it surely can be suspected they got addicted to the games. Or they can have a problem with their mentality. There are people who can't control emotion, so they are triggered to recover their losses as quick as possible. This is absolutely very dangerous because it can lead to huge losses. Well, if we know there are friends or our family members do it, we need to suggest and accompany them to visit doctors or experts.

If a gambler uses a time table and can abstain from gambling even if he wins, and abstain even if he loses, only they can make a profit. If a gambler loses three times in a row, his luck is good, and if he continues to bet, it will actually be a sign of a foolish and amateur gambler. That is, he should stop when he has received more than the expected profit. He should also stop when he has lost more than once.

I am not a fan of the martingale strategy. My strategy has been to either quit playing when I've exhausted my budget for the day and my time as well or quit after a win.

Now, back to the martingale strategy, what happens when, after playing for consecutive sessions, the win isn’t forthcoming? How do I know when to stop and on time? This would really be a challenge for some persons who would want to try it out. The end point would be to use up all the money they have in their budget for that day.

Most times, quitting isn’t really that easy. Only disciplined gamblers can actually use this martingale method perfectly.

This topic has collected 4 pages of comments in 1 day, which indicates that the topic is generally relevant for gamblers. Indeed, we often find ourselves in a situation where we are lucky and the most reasonable action would be to do a very simple thing: stop in time. I suggested a criterion of a three-fold win, but, of course, everyone has the right to choose any other reasonable criterion. You can stop after two wins in a row and then you will finish your games more often. This method itself does not give the opportunity to be successful in the long term, but it allows you to properly manage your luck.

I think a gambler doesn't need a strategy or anything when they are gambling in a casino, but they only need to know that they should stop when the time is right, like if they have won about 30% above their bankroll, that's a good time to stop. Most gamblers become greedy when they win some money, and when they win 30%, they think that they can get to 50%, and even if they get to 50%, they still don't stop because their mind tricks them and tells them that if they could win this much, they win double of this amount and this thing keeps trapping them until they lose everything back.

In sports betting, one should gamble with a strategy, but that strategy shouldn't involve using a strategy such as martingale or any other. One should only make their bets, if they win, move on to the next bet, and if they lose, they should try choosing games where they know their chances of winning are higher so that they can recover what's lost, I know you can't always do that, but in sports betting, it's possible if you go with lower odds.

Perhaps I am inclined to agree with your remark. Indeed, the behavior of a person who is just starting to gamble cannot be evaluated in the same way as the behavior of a regular gambler. A beginner may not know many things about gambling and see only the external "beautiful picture", whereas an experienced gambler most likely already knows that the duration of the game, in fact, works against him, and he needs to be able to stop in time. So thank you for the correction.

Sometimes it happens that you understand from experience when to stop, when to continue, when to place a bet, or when it is better to refuse it. But sometimes the problem is that we do not always listen to ourselves, that is, when it would be worthwhile to stop and take the winnings, we want to continue, because due to greed you start to think that you can win even more.

Of course, this is a mistake, and when you doubt whether to stop or continue, at this moment logical thinking should turn on, which should stop you. For experienced players this should always work, for less experienced it can be 50/50, one time you will stop playing and take the winnings, another time you will stop playing and lose everything.

Many people would like to be able to stop in time in gambling, but greed and dopamine very often do not allow the gambler to control himself completely. In addition, playing the strategy Martingale can lose the entire bankroll even without feeling greedy. Enough a series of several losses. Maybe the Martingale strategy in the short term and allows you to earn, but the risks of this strategy is very high and you realize it after you lose a large amount.

Most people don't think much about "stopping in time" until they're on bet number 12 and start looking at the ceiling, confused about how a simple rule slipped their mind. It's interesting how the brain can push through logic in real time when it's high and dream.

There is no such thing as a traditional "strategy" behind it. It's more of a mental balance. Putting a leash on your future self is like that, because you know he'll run off to chase ghosts as soon as he gets the chance. The three-win limit isn't really about being fair or making sense. A simple means of preventing individuals from suffering excessive and rapid losses.

There are things in our world, like markets, gambling, and even dating apps, designed to punish people who can't stop. One more swipe. One more bet. One more time. Now everything is a loop. Capitalism likes how reckless you are. Mental breaks like "stop after 3" are important because they force you to introspect.

One wins is enough for me to stop in time. But if I still want to gamble for one round, I will then stop immediately no matter what is the result. It is difficult to win three wins in a row so we need to know ourselves limit and our money. We can not risk more money if we only have chance 50/50 in gambling so it will be better if we stop gambling in time.

But it is okay if some people still chasing three time winning because they may accept the risk and know they will not win easily. But the main thing is stop in time will be the important so we don't have to lose more money or cause other problems occurs.

If followed, certainly the gambler will be in profit.

The problem here is greed, even we are aware on when to stop, gamblers are often tempted to continue playing for wanting to gain more. It's because of the thought that since you win already, you don't want to miss the chance because being lucky is not usual.

That's why it's crucial to have self-control and discipline.

The gambling strategy "The main thing is to stop in time" can be used, but you need to understand that this is a very irrational strategy. From the point of view of the mathematical theory of probability, using this strategy does not lead the player to winning in the long term.

However, it is possible that purely psychologically using the gambling strategy "The main thing is to stop in time" can minimize the player's losses in gambling.

However, this will work in the same way as a tattoo on the right hand of an alcoholic. If an alcoholic gets a tattoo "The main thing is to stop in time" on his right hand, then perhaps this will stop him at some critical moments of drinking alcohol. However, perhaps not... In any case, this will not make him quit drinking or start drinking only soft drinks.

Here you need to understand that the player loses in gambling not because he cannot stop in time, but because this loss is predetermined by the mathematical theory of probability.

If the probability of a player winning in the long term is less than 50% and he constantly gambles, then sooner or later he will lose everything.  If he stops playing periodically, he will still lose, just a little later.

I agree on this, having a limit is very important, this is what makes you a disciplined gambler... making use of strategies doesn't mean that we should gamble wrecklessly, gamblers need to remember that these strategies are not fixed and they are not guaranteed.. staying within your capacity makes you a smart gambler and a strategic one..But trying always avert your losses can only lead to more losses at the long run.

Of course, this method does not allow you to win in the long term. It would be absurd to hope for this. After all, this is a very simple rule that everyone can apply. This rule was created for another reason, namely: not to miss a random win and not to allow a big win to turn into a big loss. We all know that we are all exceptionally lucky from time to time. So, the main thing is not to miss this win. This win is always random and sometimes it happens, by chance, that your win begins to exceed your losses. If this happens, you do not need to try to increase your win. Your task is simply to stop, simply to stop the game.

In my opinion, the advice "The main thing is to stop in time" is true in gambling, where there is an opportunity to win a large sum of money, that is, to achieve the maximum prize. Such gambling games include, for example, lotteries. It is clear why this strategy should be used in such games ...

The probability of winning a large prize does exist, but it is very small. The probability of winning the maximum prize two times in a row is practically zero.

At the same time, you have the opportunity to win enough money to last for the rest of your life. You will be able to radically improve the quality of your life and completely change your lifestyle.

Therefore, in this matter, you need to use the strategy "The main thing is to stop in time". The situation is different in gambling, where the size of your potential win is limited to a small amount. Strictly speaking, it does not matter whether you stop gambling after winning a small amount of money or not.

If you stop gambling after winning a small amount of money, then the next day, when you start playing again, you have every chance of successfully losing your money.  And giving up gambling forever after a small win is also illogical.

Gamblers have the feeling to stop when he is winning but mostly greed overcome this feeling and continue his gambling activity until his bankroll is empty.  I read several replies on how they think they should stop but because they are aiming for more, they end up chasing the profit and eventually lose them all.

It is really important to take notice of our guts that we need to stop and pocket the winnings.  For me it is better to stop and play another time than risking it all just to increase our winnings.

It is. These kinds of things must be discussed because I believe nowadays it's getting more difficult for each gambler to have that kind of control. It's a method of being responsible with just 3 times a win, but I bet it won't be the recommended number for a gambler who plays slots and other games that eat a lot of money first before giving a big win.

Also, there's the mentality of thinking about the lucky streak, which sometimes cannot be avoided. One or two wins can make a gambler think he is going to have a winning streak, and this is actually where it goes wrong.

The "the main thing is to stop in time" rule given by the OP shouldn't necessarily mean to stop after 1-3 or whatever number of victories, but also after certain threshold in your balance. So it could be renamed as "the main thing is to stick to preset limits", which is not always easy. To which should be added the other difficulty of having ability to set good limits, of course. Things are not as simple as you might expect.

On the moment that you do have that series of loses then you should know on when to stop and call it a day and same goes when you are on winning too on which you do need up to consider and that what makes you a gambler that having that discipline and control on which its unlikely that you will be ending up miserable or being devastated because of gambling on which most gamblers experience.

Stop on the right time then you wont be having any problems. So it will be that up to you on how you would act out according into the actions that you will be doing at the moment that you encounter such situation. Stop in the right time whether you are winning or losing. Gambling should be just that for fun and not for making money and if you are that going on that way then you wont be having any problems. Make it sure that you wont be that going into the wrong path so that you will be not ending up on having that disaster.

You're correct, when we are winning in gambling, we should always be reminded that losses can crawl in at any time. Frankly, I would support anyone that exits the casino after winning for some time because I've come to observe that losses can come at any time and swallow up your wins if you are not careful enough, so in order to go and enjoy your wins, you can choose to quit gambling for that time and come another day, That way you are able to make good use of your winnings instead of possibly throwing it back to the wide-mouthed casino which can end up swallowing it unapologetically.

It is the real win in gambling, irrespective of what the outcome of the game may be. Continuing to gamble doesn't change anything or make winning happen quickly. It is possible to lose even while still striving by continuing to play. The ideal way to gamble is to have a time limit and stick to it. Gambling is unpredictable, and playing without timing can lead to just accumulating losses if you are not lucky. Set a time limit and gamble with an amount that you can afford to lose without being greedy.

Stopping at the right time is not as simple as imagined I admit in its implementation it is difficult, I share a recent experience where I won gambling "slots" instead of stopping I continued in another game, I knew and realized that the action was wrong from the start and I also did not pursue a much bigger win and the end result you know I lost everything, without realizing it every gambler experiences things like this and it's not a matter of stopping at the right time or lack of discipline but there is a point where we don't want to stop because the sensation produced is not just about money, I think mistakes like this are quite natural in gambling the most important thing is not to always repeat the same mistake.

Especially that there's a lot of the promotions also tournaments launched by the casino itself. Those provably could make gamblers to get tempted to gamble more especially that they get motivated to win huge due to what casino try to offer to them. This is one of many reason why gamblers find hard to stop especially that they are enjoying to much those games and tournaments they participated.

Those situation come up in the minds of people is avoidable especially if they just have a good self control and won't think about chasing more gains. Knowing what kind of risk they are going thru for sure make gambler realize that they need to stop at perfect time so they can take home their winnings and avoid losing.

Using the martingale strategy can be very risky and most gamblers use this strategy to chase their losses. Like you said, the best thing to do when you find out that you are losing to much is to stop, most gamblers don't know when or how to stop and this always becomes a problem for them. I always make sure that i stop after losing from the first trial, this is the best way to avoid gambling addiction. The more you try to get back what you have lost you'd incur more losses

That makes as much sense as quitting the game "crash" in time, as you don't know when the optimal "right" time is. Setting an arbitrary number of wins might be your exit strategy, but that strategy wouldn't bring more profits because it does ignore all the losses you make.

Even if that worked once, will you apply that all to your games, because i guarantee you that math isn't on your side when you ass the losses into that calculation.

Making your withdrawal after winning is the real win, it's better to stop earlier than later after chasing losses because the end might be funny. However, I have already said it on my first comment in this thread that winning three consecutive times is not guaranteed but it's possible when you are lucky. So when a gambler is lucky and won he should make his withdrawal and quit quickly before he lose.

I don't think OP's strategy would work with Martingale system. Not because it is not possible but because I think no one would play Martingale system and stop playing after just three wins.
 After three wins the profit would be miserable, because Martingale is designed to play with small amounts. The smaller amount the "safer" the bet is, because there is less chance you will break the bank.

If you play Martingale with big amounts it will be very short betting session :D

Gambling operators are not stupid, they control accounts that bet, they know new accounts and old accounts, they know who are often deposits and who are never deposits, the casino assigned only Working to his employer, if they pass a big jackpot to his friend, they will shoot him to death.

So the strategy of stopping on time for me is only luck for you, like that often occurs in the type of game (crash and roullete), so my advice if you win luck 3 times in the game above We recommend that you stop withdrawing money and going, you are in Patau, if you try the umpteenth again you are not until 1x your money is lost, gamble in the next 2 days the operator crash and other people's roullete operators who control it.

Thats how business works on which they would be doing their very best on trying out to retain their gamblers to play until they would be busting out everything or their capital on that gambling session on which means that these promotions and perks are just that obviously traps out gamblers for them to get stuck and blown up everything. Whenever you do find yourself getting some entertainment or enjoyment with the bonuses that you are getting then it will be that so hard for you to stop and with that then it will be resulting into that huge loses. The main thing here is stop when you are neither winning or losing but most importantly you should be stopping when you are on great loss so that you can further be able to avoid. Its important that you do really know on what you are doing when you do gamble and make it sure that you wont be able to compromise when it comes to finances because we do know that this is the main thing that will be affected when it comes into this aspect. There's no way that you can be able to find yourself not to be able to be wary on whats the current situation or condition that you are into. There are just that those times or moment that urge of emotions cant be able to stop or would be hard to control and this is where each individual would differ into this aspect. Gamble for fun and for entertainment and dont make yourself that making delusional that you can make even more money specially on the time that you had been currently winning. Greed is something which is very hard to control when you are there. Stop when you are at a loss and dont chase up loses because when you do such thing then it will be bringing up such disaster.

As for me, such rule is good for random games. When you test your luck every game you must have some limits and it can be one of them. To be honest, i don`t like such definition and would like to correct it, but the idea is right. Three win in a row can be to difficult condition sometimes, so we have to correct such rule for our games.
But if we are talking about predictable games - sport betting, such rule can break your game. The main rule for me here - bet only analyzed events, but bet every time, when odds are good enough.

According to OP, he said "In some cases, you are unlucky" that means he talks also about when games not entering as suppose but the principle he meant was when winning, absolutely, it would've  been more better to include the principle also when losing so as to counterbalance oneself from much pressure because winning and loosing comes with an emotional feeling attached to it.

So maintaining the both emotion by using the rule will certainly make sense, stopping after loosing the third round and stopping after winning the third rounds.

That’s correct, The topic is for a regular gambling activity. For example if you are betting on daily basis you can encounter losing streak that is worst than  x3

The point this thread is setting a trigger to stop gambling by experiencing certain winning streak amount. The losing streak is already given or normal occurrences on gambling that can’t be avoided.

This why we should only gamble when we only need source of entertainment and gambling is your last resort.

l
The worst thing that can happen to a gambler is putting himself in a situation where he gives back all his wins to the casino, this experience can have a very terrible effect and impact on the gambler, because it’s more of a one way ticket to doom I wanted to say “especially for those who do not have self control over their gambling decisions” but I realized that for a gambler to find himself in this position means he’s already lost control because I’m not sure there’s any gambler who has self control that’ll end up spending all his winnings or throwing them back into the “wide-mouthed casino” as you call it. This only shows the importance of having self control as a gambler, whether you’re in the losing end or the winning end.

That's right, giving all your winnings to the casino is the worst and most offensive scenario. It's a situation where you had winnings, but because of your unsystematic behavior, you turned your winnings into losses. And the reason for such behavior, in fact, is the lack of reasonable rules in your game. The rule to stop after three wins allows you to end the game when your chances of losing your entire bankroll begin to increase. After all, the outcome of the games is largely random and winnings are usually followed by losses. And here any rule that will limit your emotions and bring at least some rules to your game will be useful.

That's right. It's very important to be able to control this moment of greed (when you want to play with the money you've won). Because if a bettor or gambler constantly plays with the money they've won and doesn't withdraw it by making purchases, then ultimately they'll be left with nothing. There was a great thread on the forum a couple of years ago about a guy who won money at a casino or from a bookmaker and bought himself a TV for the wall. He even attached photos. And that's great, because even if he keeps losing, he'll still have this purchase, even if fortune turns away from him.

I am not a very experienced player in those games where only luck is important, and damn, in the last gambling session I had terrible control over myself. It all started with the fact that the slot reels spun such a cool combination that my small bet immediately turned into a win with a multiplier of x14. I was not ready for this, and instead of immediately stopping and withdrawing the money, I continued playing.
After some time, I lost this winning, and there was no trace left of it. I think many will understand me as a gambler: I wanted to increase the winnings by an even greater value, to reduce what was there by 10 ... But this greed left me without profit.

As a gambler stoping in time when gambling matters alot, Whether you are winning or losing is quite good for you to know when to stop. Though as a gambler once you do not know when to stop in gambling there is a high possiblity of more losses at the end of day. Viewing gambling as an entertainment or having fun is always the best way to gamble responsibly because gambling is not a get rich quick scheme. Forcing yourself to get more winnings in gambling is actually the cause of many losses and addiction in gambling today.

Let's use this in martingale case. "Stopping in time" generally means stopping at a certain point and I'd assume you'd only apply that on cases where you're losing. So for example, is you started losing 4 times, 5 times, and due to the rule, decided to start over. That's a LOSS of over idk, I don't do math, but that's pretty far from your initial bet, which is the amount you win when winning. That defeats the entire purpose of the strategy! Martingale is (theoretically) a good strategy because, as long as you have enough bankroll, you'll never lose. In OPs case? You just straight out lose a flat amount lol.

Not that I blame the plan, just that it doesn't work for everything. Or you won't even need it if your entire bankroll was actual, spendable money in your side.

Most definitely. It can indeed be very frustrating to give back one’s winning back to the casino. It’s a lot more like you’re only teasing yourself with success, and in no time you just let it slip away back into the casino due to your impulsive and unprofessional gambling decisions. In order to keep one’s emotions in check and avoid certain , it’s important to follow certain gambling rules, like taking a quick walk after 3 victories as this can also help to control or stop that rollercoaster feeling of further pursuit.

You have multiplied your initial deposit by 14 times and then lost it all in one day. Is that good or bad? If you really enjoy the process of gambling, then it is bad.

Because the alternative is that you would have lost all this money over a longer period, for example, over the next few days. That is, you would have enjoyed the process of gambling for a longer period.

Could you not have lost this money at all (i.e. remained in profit)? Yes, you could, but to do so you would have to stop gambling forever. For an avid, passionate gambler, such a scenario is unacceptable.

According to the mathematical theory of probability, if you gamble, which is based solely on luck, then you are bound to lose in the long run. In my opinion, your negative emotions are connected precisely with the fact that you lost immediately, on the same day.

However, it should be noted that from a mathematical point of view, it does not matter at all when exactly you lose (today, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow). It only matters from the point of view of psychology and your emotions.

This is the usual case for most gamblers is on giving back their winning into the casino most of the time because they cant just that simply stop into the things that they've been that doing specially when they are on winning on which the primary thing that comes up into their mind is that they could be able to continue to become winners and thinking up that they can win up on that particular day.

So it will be that up to you on whether you would be stopping and secure those winnings or you will be that trying out to continue just because whether you do want to play for more fun or for more profit.
Wrong decision will be basing up whether you are actually doing it for the sake of making money and not for fun, but if you are wanting to play with those winnings and wanted to enjoy up more then i dont see much issue on this one but this isnt the usual case for most gamblers because at the time that you will be winning then the primary thing comes up into your mind will making even more money.

Yes, indeed because gambling is just for have fun so we don't have to play too long. Stopping from gambling in time will help gamblers to reduce his tension and emotion so he can think if he can still gambling or he need to quit gambling. But stop gambling in time will be necessary to prevent the problem that may occurs.

If we forcing ourselves to keep gambling, there is a chance for us to lose control and that can cause us loss too much. No gamblers want to lose much in gambling so stop gambling in time will be better to do. It is better to use gambling for entertainment and fun thing because we will not think much about the result and could stop gambling in time.

Stop in time? Yes, it's smart to do so. How about achieving it quickly and without much effort? Easy with a plan, and for me, the plan is to have the money you're willing to lose ready. Once you reach that limit, you should stop playing , For me, that's stopping in time before you commit crazy mistakes and mistake after mistake that end up Being or becoming monumental losses. And that way, you avoid so many mistakes that translate into money.

- Know when to stop
- Know your limitations.

If we can completely control our gambling habits, we surely find gambling as an entertainment. But if not? This will be our nightmare. Gambling is bad when we are out of control. Many people criticize us because they already assume that we have no fortune here. Well, they are right, as we can't make gambling a money maker, but at least we are responsible gamblers who know what is right and what is wrong. But if we become crazy here, that absolutely brings us financial disaster and the worst life ever.

One thing that is so easy is wild imagination, we can imagine, but in the end, reality hits us hard and we understand that there is a different path to life than what we imagine.
3 consecutive wins, that is 3 wins in a row and each being an amount of money we desire or want? Com'on man, try at least to be a little realistic when discussing or bringing up matters like this 😁, you and I know that for such to happen, the gambler will need extraordinary kind of luck.

Infact, I might even consider creating a thread and asking this gambling community how many of us has had a the experience of winning the amount of money we want 3 times in a row? I doubt any body on this forum has ever had such experience, and this tells you how rare it is for such a thing to happen to any one out there.

Stopping in time from gambling is a good idea, but not with unrealistic scenarios like winning desired amount of money  3 times in a row consecutively.

Gamblers really have to pay attention to this, because if gamblers do not have the ability to do both, what happens is something bad. There is no hope, and what is certain is that gambling is only an activity of greed.
Feel enough with victory, or enough when the deposit has run out because of losing. No need to be curious about luck that has not been obtained. Gambling becomes worse when gamblers are too ambitious to win and greedy.

But there are many gamblers who cannot make themselves feel satisfied with anything, when they win something they think "this win is not enough, I need more", and when they lose, they get emotional and continue to play uncontrollably until they can win again, but unfortunately they never get their desired win, but they will face more big losses. As long as a gambler cannot adapt to any outcome and as long they will unable to maintain financial constraints, their losses and bad luck will continue.

Playing with the amount of money you can afford to lose and stopping at the right time (after the first loss or first win) is indeed a smart and simple plan but in fact in its implementation it is not as simple as we imagine, I think to achieve smoothness in implementing this strategy a gambler must first have a strong mentality, meaning really responsible for the decisions that have been taken and also disciplined and firm towards the plans they have made.

Because the majority of gamblers usually find it difficult to accept the fact of defeat, it is not uncommon for me to see gamblers who end up being losers who betray the plans they have previously made and eventually fall into and get carried away.

Plan in gambling ? Well , I would love some insights hehe because achieving a quick success in while you gambling doesn't work most of the times right ? I mean , sure , you can hit your first bet and would feel amazing but will you cash out ? or you will place another one ? because for me , even if I gamble with small amounts ( 1-2$ / ticket ) I tend to place another one if I hit the first one in hope I can snowball into a winning streak and once in a while it actually works.

That's the psychological trap of gambling that only a few people can overcome, the moment you win they will get you trapped in that state of always trying to get more...as humans, our needs are insatiable so no amount of money is ever enough, this is actually greed..I remember when I got my first win, in my head I felt comfortable with it because it was so easy, I started chasing more that's when I started learning things the hard way

"Stop when you can" this idea sounds good, but in reality it is often self-deception. Suppose, Raju plays with the Martingale strategy. He decided that he would stop if he won 3 times in a row. The first two days were lucky, he won 3 times and stopped. But on the third day, he lost 5 times in a row, and doubled his bet each time. The last bet ran out of money the loss was more than the profit of the 3 days.

Here, Raju knew the rule of stopping, but he couldn't stop because of the greed of "I almost got it". No matter how much you play the Martingale strategy with planning, it can all fly away with one big loss.

So, it's not strategy, but self-control that matters. And the best control? In a game where the odds are always against you, don't play it.

We human beings are naturally greedy and always have that strong approach when trying out to earn money as much as we could. On the moment that you are on such condition or situation that you've seen that you are making money then your mind will automatically be trying out to have that kind of thinking that you should be playing up even more to have that chance to make more money but knowing gambling? We do know that we are that on great disadvantage because luck factor will be that something that wont be on our side all the time plus having that reality about houses do always win up that kind of aspect then we are that on great disadvantage. This is why its always been best that you should really know on what you should gonna do at the moment that you are on profits on which is to make yourself that secure those profits and buy something from it rather than on losing it back again into the house on which this is the usual case that do happen.

Many gamblers try their best to keep their self in control when betting. We try to bet with the amount of money that we can afford to lose in our personal lives. But we sometimes lose that determination. Moreover, it is difficult to bet with a specific amount of money. It is certainly not easy to keep that money after winning and then control yourself when you lose. If a gambler cannot control himself in any situation after winning or losing, then the amount of loss of that gambler will increase. No one can ever win at gambling with any strategy, but if he can control himself, he can greatly reduce the risk of losing.

It is the problem of the gambler, not the gambling. Nowadays, we can see many people blaming gambling for making people bankrupt because of gambling. But who forces them to bet more than they can afford? Who asks them to continue playing even though they have won?
Gamblers have full control with what they do for gambling. If they do not spend more, they should be able to place less for bets.

This is clearly your own analogy, but I would say the person missed out on enjoying his wins and not concluding he is an addict until I am sure he gambled beyond his budget or without a budget. People can be lost in damaging optimism and think they would keep securing more wins after an initial good winning. Without more control over yourself in the form of withdrawing your winnings or pausing on gambling for the moment, It is more than possible you would throw everything back into the casino and miss out on enjoying your wins.

Most gamblers are affected by these things a lot, they become overconfident in their initial wins and think that this winning streak will continue, but soon they get negative results for their greed, they definatley lose their previous wins, and even after that they gamble with more money and become emotionally involved, and face more losses. Actually, these are the results of being greedy and emotional. Greed and emotion in gambling will definitely lead you to disaster, so gamble according to the rules and restrictions, stop playing to enjoy it after winning, and stop gambling even if you lose, excessive gambling is harmful to everyone.

It’s true that it’s the responsibility of each player. No one forces people to start gambling, and no one forces them to keep playing after they’ve lost their bankroll. But this is clear only to people who know how to control themselves. For those who are prone to getting carried away and overly excited, it can be hard to stop in time. The thing is you won’t know how resilient you are to excessive gambling until you actually try it.

Actually, This strategy is good practice to control your gambling urges if you are easy to carried away. Repeating the process will make this a habit until you master it to control when to stop.

I’m using this strategy for a long time since winning streak is always my stopper or sign to stop gambling to secure profit already or breakeven to stop my further losses.

Everything can be done through consistent practice.

Greed is our biggest enemy. Many people say to control it, but honestly, I find it difficult. Why? It is human nature. But I believe it was not the issue of why we can't stop gambling. Unless we let our emotions influence our minds and do what they say, even if it is wrong. I admit I was greedy, but still, I know my limitations. It wasn't because we are greedy, we can no longer stop gambling. It was a joke, and only those addicted gamblers say that.

Not being greedy is also part of controlling our emotions in gambling. Indeed greed is human nature, but this nature can be suppressed and controlled. All will depend on the willingness of the gambler to gamble better and not spend more. Sometimes gamblers can do it when they have experienced difficult experiences in gambling. There are also those who learn from other people's experiences to understand and not do it themselves.

You are right, no body can make a gambler to stop gambling unless the person has made up his mind to stop. However, from the start I can't advise someone to begin gambling because a time might come when I will regret. Actually, if a gambler can have self control over gamble he can also know when to keep on gambling and when to stop. One thing is to gamble and the other thing is to stop gambling into.

This instance you gave here is what makes someone gamblers got trapped and sometimes lose what they didn't expect and sometimes it helps them win more than what they expected. And this situation can be very tempting because you wouldn't know if that is luck or temptation and it will only take a determined gambler to stop after winning 3 times in a row knowing fully well that the money is okay and that is there target some gamblers will want to continue or try more, I have found myself in this situation before and sometimes it went well why sometimes it doesn't..., so if I see myself in this situation again I will withdraw like 70-80% of the money and gamble with the rest and once I consume that one I'm out.

I always believe that someone with a healthy gambling harbit must have self control and know when to stop either it's going his way or not, because the purpose of gambling if for fun, so when an individual deviate from such practice, and start looking at the only the monetary aspect of it, that's where it's wrong, because in the process addiction can set him, so knowing when to stop and when to abstain completely is one trait that all gamblers with sound minds all have, that's why I think that the best approach to gambling is by setting an amount you wouldn't supercede when gambling or gambles only on weekends, with such strategy, you will certainly be in control of your gambling harbit, not the gambling harbit controling you.

Yes, experienced gamblers will always say that the most important thing in gambling is to stop at the right time or take a break at the right time, but most gamblers cannot do this. And I also saw a popular movie where it was said that it is not a big deal how much money you earn from gambling, but knowing when to stop is the most important thing. There are many gamblers who have earned a lot of money by gambling, but due to excessive greed, they have lost their income and also lost their savings by gambling. In other words, all these gamblers have no idea when they should stop gambling, if they had this idea, they would never have made such mistakes and if they could have stopped at the right time, they would not have lost so much money. So it is very important for a gambler to stop at the right time.

An average gambler is very greedy which is the reason why they end up putting their emotions in play when they are having a difficult moment as a result of the losses they have experienced as they are gambling, if gamblers can set a standard for themselves and know when to stop when they things are not working out for them they won't find it difficult all the time but just like you said someone people learn from the experience of others while some control themselves so that others won't learn from their mistakes.

It is very important for a gambler to have mental stability and financial limitations, as a gambler one should never be overly optimistic, especially making unrealistic decisions at times. When he is overly emotional, he makes irrational decisions, and the only reason he is emotional is to gamble uncontrollably and face more losses than he can afford. In fact, it is very true that excessive gambling means disaster from various sides, if you gamble according to the rules and within certain limits, then it will never cause major danger. But whenever a gambler gambles excessively, he will face losses from all sides.

If you cannot determine the right time to stop yourself, you will lose more and time will be out of your reach. Have you ever gambled with yourself? Many people may not be familiar with this, but I think you will regret it later for not being able to stop gambling at the right time, which is a kind of gambling with yourself. Your time allocation will be limited. You will keep the amount of money you allocate within your means so that you can control yourself when you lose and not lose too much money.

If someone may disagree about the duration of taking a break, some people send themselves to a break after losing multiple times. Some of them do not want to take a break after at least one win, they make themselves greedy to win more. There should be a recommendation for every category of gamblers, they should refrain from being greedy beyond the limit.

No gambler knows when to stop gambling because as much as he tries to stop gambling, he will start thinking about his losses and it will occur to him that he needs to gamble more to recover the losses. Only few gamblers can have that discipline of having the idea of when to stop and sometimes even when they stop it's just for a while after which they still come back to gamble again. Since to stop gambling have become a problem for gamblers, the only thing i can only suggest is to reduce your stakes when you are experiencing a losing streak or at a time when the winning is no longer coming because if you reduce your stakes, your bankroll will last longer and present you with the privilege of gambling for a long time and chances of winning can still surface, the only difference will be that since you are gambling with little amounts, your winnings will also be little but it will be better than losing all the time.

In aspect of emotional control, that's the right thing to do – to know when to stop. It doesn't matter if one believes the wins came as a result of luck or not, one should know when to exit after a few wins or losses. We shouldn't be seen to always be on bet sites or casinos. There should be cool off moments from time to time. For me, it's something I like to often observe. I easily get wearied out while on sites longer than necessary, and once I'm weary my concentration level gets messed up.

Slots for instance always feels like the fun is hidden behind going further and further, which then pro longs the game and makes it tiring. And because the brain is weak the decision to stop gets eliminated until the bankroll is exhausted. However, going for a break is the best  strategy at revitalizing our brain power and ensuring better choices, but too many players do it at a very late timing almost when it's no longer necessary after a finished bankroll.

It is noted that based on your terms, the gambling should be stopped after 3 consecutive winnings, but when will you stop based on your terms if you lose? Will it remain the same rule or will there be something different? If there is a difference, then what is that? If the rule is the same for win or lose, then what will be the difference between the 1/1 rule or something like that?

Totally agree with you about the real gamblers and the inability to stop because otherwise betting shops and betting wouldn't be so common right?
There is nothing wrong with the game itself and gambling, it is the inability of the player to stop or remove chips from the table that makes them bad. In addition, gambling for many people the opportunity to risk and feel the excitement of ordinary life and those who have their own system get a stable income just because they know when to stop and get out of the game, and the habit of playing after losing and trying to win back is the worst thing that can happen to a player.

How you can see the inability of a gambler to stop gambling. Those who have perfect timing and can control emotions may control him/her to stop gambling. In this case, there is no way to say that the inability of a gamble,r you may say the inability of the maximum gambler, not all the gamblers. I think you have got my point. Correct me if I am wrong, thank you.

Well, you are right, absolutely right because you said exactly what I normally do, and not like I can't refrain myself from such urges to keep gambling for me, but because I usually see giving up to protect my bankroll as unnecessary, so I usually will gamble until my entire bankroll is empty, then and only then alone can I be satisfied.

I sometimes feel like there is a spirit behind slot games that's wants a person to keep gambling until their bankroll is exhausted, like for example, if I am playing slot and losing, I want to play more because aside from playing it for fun, a small part of me still want to win money, if when that win is not forthcoming, that small part of me wants to keep playing until I win something.
This is why it is sometimes hard to preserve bankroll and end session when one hasn't won anything.

That's the way it is. Another interesting aspect is that a gambling addict has only himself to blame for his addiction. Since his addiction was caused by thirst for excitement (thrills) and greed (and this is generally one of the sins), that is, from a religious point of view, he is a sinner who should be punished with suffering until he overcomes his sin.

It is important that gambling itself is not sinful, but greed is. An important feature of gambling addiction is that, for example, unlike drug addiction, gambling addiction cannot be forcibly inculcated, whereas it is possible to force a victim into a drug by injecting a drug into him. Of course, most drug addicts are also voluntary, but there is still a difference.

So the ability to stop in time is extremely important, and this is what distinguishes a responsible player from a gambler suffering from gambling addiction. For clarity, we can compare an ordinary person who knows how to drink moderately, while maintaining adequate, and an alcoholic with a swollen liver who is lying in the mud deranged. In the same way, a decent gambler can play for his own pleasure for years in a casino, but an addicted gambler no longer even enjoys winning (he immediately loses them), he is simply a slave to his addiction.

Everyone plays to win, that is the main goal, but despite the desire to win, I never allow myself to lose my entire bankroll in one evening, because for me it would be a failure to comply with risk management. And playing slots is a difficult choice, this game is addictive, and nothing depends on you, you just play and wait for luck, but I do not understand why play such games in which almost nothing depends on you, rely only on luck, this does not convince me to start playing, and if I had a desire to play until my bankroll runs out every time I would not even start.

Everybody have their own gambling strategies, that is, ways in which they try as much to not lose all their money, but then, playing and ensuring that you do not run out of funds depending on how much money you have allocated for your gambling activity, for example, you can't allocate $10 to gambling for a month and expect not to lose the entire bankroll in one or two days when and if luck didn't show up and make you win.

But then, let's say you allocated like $500 and above to gambling all through the month, then if you lose this entire bankroll in matter of days or a week, then it simply means that gambler is one who don't know how to manage himself with gambling.
So in the nutshell, not losing all the bankroll in a single gambling session depends on how much you have in the same bankroll..

I will not say that gambling is a good activity for everyone. But every gambler will have their own time to develop their better thinking about gambling. We know it is not easy for gamblers to control their gambling activities well. But to avoid something bad from gambling, gamblers must improve their ability to control their emotions.

Not many gamblers possesses the ability to regularly apply the stop button base on their set rules. It takes a lot of self discipline to stop gambling when your luck seems to shine on you with 3 consecutive wins at a row, you'll be tempted to want to maximise the opportunity now that it has availed itself. This is how some gamblers reason. And before they realise it. They have gone far away in breaking their set rules.

I agree with the op, that sticking to the rules irrespective of the outcome could be saving than when we compromised with our set rules.

Yeah, emotional control is everything in gambling. But all people are greedy, less or more. Actually controlling greed is really difficult tho. You will find very few gamblers among us who are able to control their emotion after winning a large amount of money. when i win big, it leads my mind to just do one more spin.. lol :D
Other hand after losing money, we want to recover that immediately and lose more. If you ask me controlling emotion is the key to being successful in gambling, it's not luck or strategy actually :)

If we maintain some small rules we can profit from wagering as well as get entertainment. If we lose money in wagering we can stay away from gambling for some time to get calm. Again, after winning a big amount, we can take a short break to enjoy that money without trying to keep the winning streak so long. If we can subdue when to walk away, we can stay away from gambling addiction as well and the chances of losing money will also decrease.

And this is where the major problem rest on for most gamblers, some of them try to control their emotions but they just can't and I wonder why someone who can not control their emotions or habits towards gambling will still be gambling. At the beginning when you said that gambling is not a good activity for every one, it's simply the truth. Some person just feel deceived by the winning of another gambler or they thought they can easily win and become rich overnight, not knowing that it's not that easy.

It's a good strategy and it's almost the same as sticking to the budget that you have allotted for that period of day. So, a gambler that has no control to himself can set two rules or strategies. And that's one, stopping in time and also stopping if the budget runs out. One can pick which will work for themselves but I think that I like the former. Because it's either win or lose, you'll stop in time compared to the latter, you'd definitely stop when you have nothing left anymore. So, this assumes that you have lost all of your bankroll for that particular day before you stop.

The main problem you said is true, I think most people who gamble tend not to be able to stop at the right time, such as when they have experienced defeat in the previous bet. In addition, I think this is one of the things that triggers their addiction to gambling, which increases their desire to gamble periodically, whether in a fast or slow period of time.

Thinking about easy wins is certainly a problem too, with what you said about other people's wins being true and reasonable. Now many people who gamble are they want to be able to win, but when they fail, they will feel desperate or upset, especially if they find their friends who have won in gambling, then they will likely be tempted to gamble again. This is where there is no good self-control.

Then, depositing smaller amounts to the bankroll stays as the only meaningful solution to this honey badging problem faced by half the gamblers I've met. It's not just you, players across the world may never stop at 3 or 4 spins, and call it a day. The game must go on, so, I friendly do a batch by batch thing to it, until I'm tired of going ahead with depositing, as a bankroll with huge amounts is so tempting and encouraging and aswell gives purposes not to respect self control. These advances or development on craving for more outcomes won't stop simply by stopping a session while some funds are left on us, hence it's best to adhere to placing small amounts into the gaming bank.

It is not necessary to deposit your entire bankroll at once. You can split it into equal parts and in this way limit yourself. For example if you have a bankroll that you manage yourself and you want to gamble you take a certain part of it you decide how much and deposit it. You know that you can only play with this deposit on that day no more. If you lose it the game is over if you win you withdraw your winnings.

Sometimes that’s where the problem starts  once we get hooked on the game, we start increasing our bankroll just to chase more excitement.

That’s why it’s important to have a plan. Gamble with an amount that still gives you a thrill, since gambling is supposed to be entertainment. No point in doing it if you’re not even having fun. But no matter how much you're betting, always stick to your discipline as that’s the real key to staying safe. ( this is always reiterated).

This is the kind of strategy illustrated on one of Jean Scott's books I've read 'the frugal gambler' and professional players probably like this method because, on the long term, it buys more time and fun with the entire bankroll, for instance, instead of spinning it all in one day it could be elongated to five days thereby making gaming fun and less expensive.


And if the iteration or repetition doesn't get cut short by something like low bankroll the player makes bankruptcy easy for himself. Also it only gets worse if not limited, just like some addicts whose dopamines are fustrated, and they quickly end a session once it begins, they go all in and have nothing on them to play further. Perhaps at some point in their gaming journey such players took the process gradually, but later on can't stand on the machine for more than half a minute before all their money gets vanished.

The difficulty of each gambler in suppressing their emotions in gambling will vary. All will also be related to how deeply the gambler is addicted. In the case of addicted gamblers, it can still be attempted to control their emotions. But you certainly know how difficult it will be to do. There is nothing easy about changing the habit of gambling that has been done for a long time. It will definitely require a process, and the most extreme may require help from others.

Exactly, it all depends on how we have the ability to control ourselves in gambling ethics. Because, external factors will also be as high and as big as the influence on us, apart from the internal side too.

What is certain, when we are able to control our ego, emotions, deposit limits, greed, and also wise risk management, then we are at least trying to make ourselves not compulsive, and this is how it should be.

But, sometimes, everything goes wrong. Not all people are able to do it.

The day you stop is the day you start winning but a lot of people  don't understand this, according to some gamblers they say that you lose when you quit, lol... this statement is the opposite of the first one I made and it's very misleading..this has made some gamblers lose on a daily basis because they are gambling to recover or trying to get income from it..this is a wrong approach to gambling and can lead to addiction.

The only problem that I could see with this strategy is whether a gambler can pick up the pace. If he is setting a budget of let's say $100 per month, will he keep his promise and stick with the plan? I think that's where it all goes wrong. Once the gambler cannot even control himself and is trying to chase his losses, so that he can climb back. These kinds of events are where we make most of the mistakes. We cannot even stop anymore because we are trying to get our revenge.

I also thought at one time that if gamblers cannot control their emotions then they should not gamble. But they should have the right to have fun or they will become wiser and more experienced with time. They cannot be fair to themselves and keep losing every time but they may be preparing themselves to play better and win. What I consider is that gambling may not be a good habit for gamblers who have very little discretionary income and are not enough to meet the daily needs of their family. Some may gamble to make themselves rich but it leads them in the opposite direction and they become poorer. Gambling should be done in proportion to their income.

Yes, this mindset certainly has a strong principle, where the budget has been set in advance for gambling, whether winning or losing will not be a problem because you can accept the consequences. The most important thing is to always be consistent with the goals we do when gambling, getting a win is a bonus in itself and when you lose you must be able to accept it without any regrets

Having a mindset of accepting losses is a very important thing, but unfortunately we do not see it among most gamblers. And the only reason that gamblers do not accept their losses is that, because they have come to gamble not for entertainment but to make money, and for this reason alone they most of the time he lost self-controlled and always have their financial situation negatively affected, which eventually turns into a huge financial crisis for them, and as a result they lose many of their valuable things. The only way to accept small wins or losses is to first keep your motives right, gambling is not a means of making money, it is a means of entertainment, so gambling should be accepted only for entertainment, and always gamble responsibly by setting the right financial limits.

To be honest, it is not only about when it is proper to stop gambling and withdraw one's money out the casino... It is also matter of knowing when to stop gambling completely and quit gambling for good, because as long as we continue to go back to casinos and bookies, it is very possible we will continue to lose money in the long turn.
For example, if someone managed to get 1000 dollars of earnings of earnings in a single session on a casino, when it would be up to that person to withdraw it all and enjoy the money or continue to gamble and risk his recent winnings, regardless of what the choice is, if that person continues to gamble those 1000 dollars will go back to the house.

You're right, in part all of that is necessary in the life of any player and as a person too to have control of our activities and not get carried away, on a personal level I would define it as discipline, something that seemed very difficult to obtain to me at least in the game, because discipline in sports is acquired over time, but in the casino and betting it costs a little more because money and adrenaline are involved, that's where the complication comes in, but having discipline makes everything better.

It is always difficult to be disciplined in gambling, even when we do set limits. I tend to hope that many of us become responsible gamblers rather than disciplined gamblers, because responsible gamblers will never really get into trouble even if they lose all their balance due to losing. Discipline in gambling is certainly necessary, but the most important thing is to be a responsible gambler.

Stopping gambling on time is a good approach based on understanding, it is difficult, in fact many people will probably break it. Many gamblers are very likely to break their own rules for various reasons, even for trivial reasons they can still lose money after a losing streak. It's hard to be a gambler who can control everything fine, so learn to be a responsible gambler.

It's not easy to achieve such a thing, it requires a lot of discipline and also a lot of desire to know how to manage our money, it cost me and it cost me a lot of money too, once you Accept that it's better to follow the plan or else the money is gone ,then that's where everything changes, that's why the key to that strategy is discipline.

The main thing is to stop in time Okay I agree with that but how do we know when the time is right? How do we know? We can only make assumptions and what happens if we stop at the wrong time? In other words, a big prize is waiting in the next game and we stopped. In short, what I mean is that stopping is important but everything depends on luck.

If the gambler is not addicted, he will stop at the right time anyway, his budget is certain and when that budget is finished, he will stop and will not continue. If I win in the meantime, I withdraw the money and enjoy myself, I spend the money as I withdraw it, I don't think much.

This strategy is okay but those who gamble excessively will not see it to be useful because having a budget for them is like a bondage gambler who are limited to what they want to do with their money but if perhaps someone who gamble excessively will abide on this strategy they will see the sustainable impact it will make for them because is like putting a stop loss on there gambling that immediately the funds is exhausted there will be no more gambling either for the time being or week depending on how they configure the strategy, so I agree on this strategy of yours because is nice.

It's hard for gamblers to win and decide to stop playing, it takes a lot of discipline and emotional control to walk away after making profit.. people who are greedy cannot be satisfied with any amount of money they win and this would lead to losses... What's actually more difficult to stop is when you are chasing your losses...some gamblers get so fixated on getting back what they have lost and they end up throwing away everything they have left

Anyone who has played gambling to the extent that it doesn't know it limits in the gambling, and at the end he or she loses it's money in gambling I think that person is addicted gamblers, so for anyone who is into gambling is supposed to have a limit because if you don't have a limits in gambling you will spend unnecessarily so therefore gambling is something we have to follow with a diplomacy knowing the risk that's involved in the gambling, the risk of gambling is that much and that's why people doesn't know when they bet above their limits, anyone who is a pure gamblers is supposed to have a budget if I'm not mistaken, so that you will not spend your money that is not meant for gambling on the process of betting

I can’t continue playing I will have to apply the second strategy which I have already agree to work with which is to know when to stop in time, the first step that lead to fall of a gambler is when they start breaking their own rules and also having over confidence in their self that they have control over the system because they feel today is their lucky day and want to utilize that opportunity very well, that will only land the person into losing that first winning which they got that conceived them to feel that way, it will be best for me to stop when I can and continue next time securing that little but big money which I have luckily won.

Not many gamblers can make the decision to stop in time and this is why we have many gamblers losing money. This is also why budgeting is important in gambling and this includes everybody gambling not only those doing it professionally. You being someone that only gambling for fun still have to give yourself a budget to help you out when you have exceeded the budget to quit instead of continuing and giving yourself more losses. Without the budgets, we'll have people gambling continuously without stopping and this encourages addicts too and not just you losing. You lose all round when you aren't being cautious when gambling. Recovering is almost not possible and an attempt can lead you the paths that you didn't plan that involves constant losses.

Yeah, it's like a stop loss that a gambler will have to adhere and that's why if it's going to be an effective strategy for someone, it should be followed. The impact depends on how excessive we are as a gambler and if there is no indication that we're going to stop, then it means that we have to do something that forces us to stop whenever we can. Even if it's going to be hurtful based on our emotions, if we're unstoppable when the right time has come we should follow it and stop wholly. This is also limiting ourselves and if it still doesn't work, that gambler needs to find a resolution that helps them and benefits them.

Be aware of the fact that a budget alone isn't enough to make a gambler stop but it depends on how much patience and self-control they posses because even if you decide a budget or a limit, if you don't have patience in general, you won't be able to follow that budget and you will most probably get out of control and gamble more even after losing your initial budget because your nature doesn't allow you to stop but it makes you try more and recover what's lost even if you know it's not possible.

I have seen so many gamblers who say that they have fixed a budget for their gambling activities and they won't go beyond that limit, but as soon as they lose that money, they start raging and losing control over their emotions, and soon enough, you will see them making excuses to themselves and reimbursing their casino wallet with some more money only to try and win this time.

Hence, the problem doesn't lie in not having a budget, but it's all about your ability to control your emotions and stay calm.

It is important for one to know when you are to stop either when winning or losing because it saves you from chasing your loss , also after those wins and you did not quite you keep on play, there is a possibility of you losing all the money which you have won and go back to zero level again and some persons will not be able to tolerate those losses, the will start chasing those losses hoping they will get it back.
Also, setting your limits in terms time and bankroll will go a long way for you because when the budget of a particular week is exhausted you don't have to encroach the one for the other week which means you have to wait until the new week comes, also in the aspect of timing, when your set time is over, you quit without additional time, because it will be affecting other schedule for the day, for those that can't control themselves in gambling it is adviceable for them to start using timing and bankroll measure in other to help control their addicted gambling habit . Stopping on time gives the you an edge over those that do not observe the timing and bankroll, so it is better you manage whatever wins you have than losing all you have because of greed.

It is really difficult if we always think it is difficult. But why not try it hard? In fact, if others can do it, why can't we? It is about how we treat gambling in our lives. Giving it less focus could certainly help, but if our day never ends without gambling, that is going to be impossible. Gamble responsibly; that's what we taught the people, but unfortunately, we never follow as we let our emotions take the lead and make decisions. We are simply burning ourselves, and the worst thing is when we fall into addiction.

What if there are no wins, or if the win comes only after a long streak of losses,meaning you have to lose over and over just to get your 3 consecutive wins? Or maybe I’m just not getting it clearly.
All I know is that in some cases, the win can come late, and in others, it might just be your lucky day with multiple wins.But yeah, knowing when to stop might just be after 3 win..or maybe more,as long as you’re not hitting the limit anyway. Wdyt..

Whether it is gambling, investing, or even relationships, it is always a great idea to know when to call it quits. A lot of people look for good entry points, but most people don’t think about the point at which they would cash out their investment. I think an exit strategy is always a good thing to consider ahead of time.

Technically, yes, since this is an ecosystem where it is always about a game of chance, and winning is never promised since the house will always win. Therefore, having a good exit plan is a good thing to always consider even before the game starts unless the gambler wants to learn through the hard way.
I believe not considering an exit, and buzz control are the major things that lead to addiction

I agree, that's even the goal why we're gambling right? It's no use if we've won enough and then we still continue and didn't take a part of those wins. It is a fact that we look for good entries and we don't know when we should be out, either gambling and investing.

It is. We have to look in aiming and enough is enough once we hit it. Any amount will do as long as it is what we have planned for and even a closer amount will do too.

It's good that you understand the importance of self-control. However, even those gamblers who are confident that they are in control of themselves sometimes succumb to the temptation to make another bet after winning and lose their winnings as a result (I experienced this a long time ago). By the way, such a phenomenon as "Regression towards the mean" is essentially a scientific explanation (from the point of view of statistics) of why you should be able to stop in time after a big win.

Being too greedy can cause a disastrous situation for a gambling, example is when a gambling is winning and they are happy, they keeping winning and have made so much profit but because they wanted more, they decided to continue until they entered a losing streak but instead of stopping, they continued trying until they have lost all they had won, and like you said, in situations like that, the gambler will start chasing losses. That's a very bad habit, it's important to know when to stop and not just being too eager to gamble without knowing how and when to take a break.

Controlling greed is difficult quite alright, and that's why you shouldn't allow yourself to get to that extent that you try to control it, it's better to prevent it and to do so, you've to be disciplined not to deposit twice, your initial deposit should be according to your budget and after that, don't deposit anymore. You can be promoted to spin once more, but when your casino balance is used up, and you know that by principles you'll not deposit again, then you'll have no other option than to stop since you cannot spin on a zero balance.

Discipline to never deposit more than once is the key for me.

To stop gambling is not that easy as many would take it as an inconvenience on them from gambling, but in some situations, we have to understand that it's not by stopping to gamble, but pausing for a moment to get things done right, for instance when a gambler wins and then it happens that he continue gambling with the attempt of winning the more,  but before he could realize what is at stake, he would have spent almost all he won at the process, but had it been he pause to continue some other time, things might not got basserk.

It is not difficult for me to stop when I have won. Moreover, my further play is determined only by whether I can find a good bet at the moment or not. If I see that it is not worth taking risks anymore on this game day, I will stop no matter what. Whether I have won or lost will not matter to me. I have made enough of those mistakes in the past when I just kept playing because there were still matches available and I placed bets on any remaining ones. I do not do that anymore. I select the matches in advance and stop when there are no suitable ones left.

It's still a pity to lose even a small amount of money. What is it? Greed that is difficult to control? Or maybe a completely different feeling? How to come to understanding? What needs to be done? Understand yourself? Yes, most likely, this is the only right decision, and then everything else. Everything depends only on the person. Most games are tied to the psycho-emotional base of the player.

Yes it is hard to stop especially when it comes to winning moment because the greed of us will be whispering us to play more which is something natural LOL.
The only way to kill this greed is by having a strong discipline so there will be a fight between our discipline vs our greed.
Who will win the fight? It depends on ourselves because this kind of fight inside ourselves is unpredictable when it will come.

It's sad that a lot of gamblers realize this at a late stage, they must have lost a lot and probably been in debt before deciding to stop but all the same it's better late than never...the aim of what has already been programmed in gambling is to keep the users engaged in it constantly, that's why some people can't really explain why they cannot just stop, it's almost like a hypnosis but it's something that you can break out from

Well, for me, discipline is one of the things that intrinsically carries responsibility , Discipline doesn't allow us to play in an uncontrolled manner and doesn't allow us to do crazy things Furthermore, discipline doesn't prevent us from playing with all our nerves on the surface and that no matter what plans we make, we won't get out of control For me, it's the best handbrake we can have, Of course, I see it from that point of view.

I have been in this kind of situation when gambling was all I do everyday because I have limited funds with me and the urge to multiply it was my focus. Gambling should not be something we have to be engaging on everyday, there should be a specific time when we ought to be gambling not something that should be done on a daily basis.

It's good to put discipline in everything we are doing so that we don't over do it and it wouldn't be advisable for us to be gambling too frequently to avoid the chances of getting addiction. Addiction has been one of the problem majority of gamblers are facing and for us to stay far away from the consequences of gambling, we ought to focus on a better way to gamble responsibly without greed.

For me the person is addicted, because it means that the person doesn't gamble with conscious, so I know quite well that gambling anything that make you to gamble to be bankroll that means the gambler doesn't gamble with a precaution, so in gambling we have to know such that gambling is something we need to be considered as a risk and when we don't take careful with gambling it will affect our financial system, if you spend more than what you can save it means that you are addicted in the gambling,  we should ask ourselves what addiction means, addiction means frequently doing a particular thing, or when you are being carried in a particular thing. So we need to know such that it's an addiction

Honestly the headlines remind me of an adage that says a stitch in time saves nine, it's trying to talk about being able to stop whatsoever one tend to do in time inorder not to be left out or being stucked in the process. Regardless of anything one needs yo be cautious enough to know when to stop in between their gambling activities, that alone gives a good reports and results inorder to avoid being addicted overtime. So when you're able to stop in time you stand the chances of not being in that situation of regrets and loses.

But some people don't realize that they have exceeded the limit and never stop after the defeat continues to occur and the allocated money runs out.
This is because there is no strict control over the rules he makes himself.

Regret will indeed happen in the end and it is experienced by as a gambler who just wants big profits quickly without the need for a process.

I myself completely stopped when the initial game did fail and tried to think clearly that it was not okay to apply revenge gambling when failure kept happening.

Addiction is more likely to result from addiction to dopamine and adrenaline and the desire to get more and more of these biogenic amines. In my opinion, to minimize the probability of becoming a gambling addict you should learn to get dopamine and adrenaline during other entertainment. Some people do extreme sports for this purpose. It is clear that not everyone can afford such entertainment due to health and age, but with a strong desire you can think of something.

This is the reason why gamblers find it hard to escape the never ending cycle of losing, the dopamine rush they feel when chasing more wins or their losses makes them gamble uncontrollably, this is understandable but it's so infuriating when gamblers use this is an excuse not to recover...they just succumb to the chemical reactions in their brain acting like there's nothing they can do to make a change, this means you have a weak mind.

Nothing, maintain self-control and control yourself strictly, then everything will  be fine. Nowadays people have endless excuses, you have to have your own willpower and maintain the right mindset. Remember that nothing is impossible, and those who easily get greedy or start gambling uncontrollably after such losses, they can control themselves if they want, but they have to have that kind of mentality.

Dopamine is released simply from habits that bring pleasure. It all depends on the person. Playing sports or learning new skills and technologies gives people dopamine. I would say that visiting this forum is also a way to increase dopamine levels; time spent enjoying yourself will always have a positive effect on your well-being. However, people who choose gambling as a priority rarely realize that all the feelings can be obtained from other activities. Forming healthy habits for people addicted to gambling can be a great help and a substitute for the habit of regular gambling, which is very addictive.

Actually, most gamblers are able to quit for a day once they manage to make decent profit. The point is that no one is going to quit forever, so once he comes back on the following days for further gambling sessions, he is inevitably going to face a long loss streak at some moment, which will lead him to lose all the progress made so far. So it's useless to think to stop in time is the key for success, unless we are talking about a jackpot winner who got millionaire at once.

A gambler can make consistent profit for few weeks uninterruptedly, always quitting in time, but it takes only a day of disaster to return to the zero point, or in worst cases, to the complete bankruptcy.

But if I am a bettor and I found a good match to bet on, then after winning I should stop because it was the match I was confident in, and further bets will not be so good and I may be lucky to win, or maybe not and I will lose. And when I return on another day, there will also be matches in which I will be more confident, and it seems to me that this is how it works in gambling, that we need to bet less often, but only on those matches in which we have more confidence, and if there are doubts, we don't bet.

In fact, the more confident you are in betting the more you will not win. I have lost most of my bets due to this kind of sure attitude that I will win the bet on the best team. I have given you an example of my observation but in everyone case it may be the opposite or you will win. You have to stop after winning. This should be a mandatory habit for you because you should stop gambling compared to losing later.
Experience and confidence do not guarantee more winnings in gambling I believe this, however I try to play a limited amount of games with self-control to reduce the amount of losses by using experience while gambling. In matches where most of the bettors bet on the best team I conduct myself with the opposite reaction and in most situation it gives positive results

I don't mean anything by what I'm going to ask dude, but I'm just curious, you said that when your capital is x3 that which you won while playing online gambling, you're exiting, right?
What if you're x2 profit and that's still considered a decent price, you still won't stop?

Besides, after 3 consecutive wins in gambling, evil or demons are already whispering in our ears,
why do you often hear demons whisper, dude? ;D peace bro :D though you have a point..

I think that most of us as players have gone through that kind of situation, and it is not easy to carry and assume such a thing because always in life situations we have to do many things to get money, I think that we as humans pay to live, and if other lives exist on other planets I am sure that they are much more evolved because I am sure that they do not pay to have many things, sometimes the economic situation when we are tight does not allow us to have fun, but pray to win when betting, I think that is where we should say not to play and look for money elsewhere, it is the best.

When someone said that they have a winning target to achieve something like 3x, 5x or even more..I do believe this number is flexible and gamblers can stop at anytime before they achieve the target or even continue playing after they achieve the target ;) Basically it can be depending on some situations, feeling is usually what is used by gambler whether to stop or continue although they have their own target. So when they think that the winning is more than enough, or if they have achieved lower than the target but they feel that they are going to lose it back due to bad results on few bets then they will stop (if they are discipline enough).

You need to think about this before you start playing, because it can be difficult to realize it during the game, especially when you’re getting a lot of losses and start chasing to win back what you’ve lost. But understanding this before you find yourself in such a situation is very difficult. To truly get it, you have to go through it yourself, draw the right conclusions, and then stick to those rules without breaking them. If you can set a gaming deposit for yourself for a day, a week, or a month, it will save you from a lot of problems. It would be great if beginners could understand this from the very start, but unfortunately, I see that no one wants to learn from others' mistakes, and everyone prefers to make their own.

Mistakes and mistakes may be the best reminder, but it requires a loss that will make anyone think more clearly before playing.

It's not easy, but if you don't try it, nothing will be done to overcome greed that could have happened more brutally.
By allocating funds and when to stop, it will be a good strategy.

Seeing a lot of newbies who get into gambling who are just wasting their money, it looks so wasted and even they don't realize that what they are doing will only be detrimental to them.
it's not about fun but it's already entered the area of addiction because you want to get the Jackpot you dream of.

The debt forces them to select the choice of gambling again instead of looking at the other option of quitting and accepting the loss, because the second option carries with it the guilt and remorse of their habits. The first option carries with it the sense of comeback win of having beaten the casino on the one single big win - but that does not happen unless they put in more money leading to an endless cycle. The earlier the gambler realizes this the better.

Often when small losses are piling up people are not bothered, they think they will make it up - but this is what is wrong, you never make up what you lose in gambling. The losses will keep stacking till it becomes a significant amount.

They not only lose what is left, but also go further. For example, they start borrowing money from relatives and friends. They do not disdain to take a loan from a bank, if possible. I personally went through all this. And what can I say? You should never do this. It will lead to tragic consequences. If there is no more money for the game, then this is a signal that it is time to stop. Of course, this did not help me. Due to my youth, I did not care what would happen later, after all this. I wanted to be in the game all the time. Greed did not give me peace. I wanted to win back and get a decent win.

Their mind still think that they have a chance to win in the next rounds. That make them keep gambling and make more mistakes without think to stop gambling immediately. If they can think clearly that they are enough to gambling, they will stop it immediately before their losses become big.

Stop in time need awareness that we can only treat gambling as a fun thing. If you already fun in the games, you should stop it no matter what the result is so you can save the rest of your money. It is not good if you spend all of your money at a day even if you have much money.

Stopping in time could not be am the actual solution for any kind of a gambling behavior, instead we need to run a check on what is happening and know the required means to help with the situation, this will make us have a perfect administration of a lasting solution, to stop gambling is not easily done like that, it has to follow an approach to be used and other guidelines that could help in shaping the gambler's behavior to gambling.

I like the way you think, especially with the Martingale strategy, because I thought about it myself. Although I rarely play, sometimes I just want to go in and make a few bets with constant doubling. Of course, if I won a few times, I would just close the game, but I understand that after a while I can come back again to try to increase my bankroll. And the whole point of your idea is to play a little bit and then not go into the game at all. But we can not exclude the fact that we can immediately lose due to several unsuccessful bets in a row, this will be a really big punishment and failure for us.

How else is a beginner supposed to learn this? They start playing and at the very beginning they have no idea when they should stop and when they should keep playing. The main advantage beginners have is that most of the time they start with small amounts of money and almost certainly their starting deposit will be completely lost. This is essentially their learning period and after that everything will depend on them, how willing they are to learn and adapt.

No one teaches you how to stop in time when it comes to gambling. Compared to other types of activities gambling largely depends on the person and how disciplined they are about their play.

Yeah, this is the faster way to either make a big profit or lose everything. But when we set a gambling budget amount, then I guess it won't hurt that much as long as we follow the discipline.

But do remember that there are possibilities that we are urged to gamble more because there are instances where it looks like we are near winning a game, and that actually is where it goes all wrong for us. The main focus should be taking that rest when we have depleted the set amount, and we cannot break that discipline. 

Discipline after planning ahead of time, it's your execution and how good you are in terms of controlling yourself if you manage to take of those factors that affects your gambling sessions then chances is good in terms of limiting your potential loses and a good possibilities to take some decent amount when quitting your game.

Timing is something that needs good execution together with your knowledge you'll be able to take advantage and not to missed out your chances to win.

And I agree with you, I often want to do this too and I have already mentioned this somewhere. It is just hard to believe that, for example, six bets in a row can be wrong. 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32. These are the doubling shares, so there are 63 shares. This means that if you start with a dollar bet, then by the sixth time you will need to bet 32, and then find 64. Now this does not seem so acceptable, because the growth of the next bet is such a quick avalanche that it can simply take the deposit completely zeroing it out, or even drive the gambler or bettor into debt.

Mistakes hurt, and certainly, often they are the only thing stopping the cycle. But suffering by itself cannot turn the game around. Others demonstrate the same pattern  particularly in the new faces - money disappears, lesson forgotten. Though cautions seem empty against the force of habit and hope, you want to warn them. Theoretically, allocating money, creating lines, organizing exits, that is control. In actual life, the first thing to vanish when emotions grow loud is control. We discuss strategy while we ignore the fact that people are naturally driven for risk and reward and for thinking "maybe this time".

Addiction hides under a thousand disguises: optimism, boredom, loneliness, excitement. Most individuals will not see themselves until the cost is undeniable. And by then, oftentimes trust, self-respect, time, not just money, has gone missing. The hardest part is not the loss, but what it reveals. What are you really chasing? Really, what are you attempting to fix?

I wonder how someone will make a stop after three wins in a row when they have not mastered how to stop after a win, also what makes you think that you will have three wins in a row before you call it a quit? Gambling results won't always be the same as others.

---

I've only seen two wins in slots and after I still lost everything, although with small amount of money, I would rather master the act of putting an end to gambling after every win because it's easier than expecting three wins before you stop gambling, what if you are to only see two unfold and the third time will result in loss.

---

High expectations is the major punishments we all face in gambling, if anyone can at first push this aside they have done themselves a bigger favour, do not copy other gamblers, reason with yourself and find what works for you along with only what you can afford to lose.

We don't know every gambler's plan and target. One win with a better multiplier will definitely allow the gambler to think about stopping at that time. But a small multiplier will allow the gambler to continue the game to get a bigger multiplier.
Every player has their way of playing, which also allows the player to set their game limit. The tendency of gamblers who are ready to lose funds will definitely continue the game until the balance runs out in a losing situation. But in a winning situation, it is difficult to stop.

For me, even two consecutive wins is enough to wrap it up for the day. We just have to be satisfied as a gambler because not everyday is going to give you that chance to win. The idea of stopping after winning is something everyone as a gambler should try to employ into their lifestyle as it would actually help them effectively on a long run. Though it's easier to say most time because we may be tempted to keep playing not until we begin to loss consecutively. But after a good number of wins, an excitement stage will surely ruin the fun.

Regardless of the fact that he isn't addicted whereas having loses there's still this need to stop in between the activity cause gambling addiction start up gradually and overtime it tends to grow beyond ones imagination and that's not based on whether the person counter loses or not. Once you can't control your habits even when your getting a win there's still much chances of being addicted. So what I'm trying to say is knowing when to stop is an added advantage and helpful in limiting addiction.

We have hard several discussions on this topic before, but as far as gambling control os concerned, is an important topics so for that we will welcome any topic that seek to expansiat and clarify means and ways to put our gambling into control.


Just like what we have in trading, stop lose, or take profits, all this strategy aim at controlling our trading ambling interaction and trying to limit the level of risk we are taking at that time, same applicable with gambling at some point, a gambler will need to stop and reflect on their gambling involvement at some point.

Nothing is impossible to do, if you can put it at the back of your mind that I will only gamble for 30 minutes or after three consecutive losses, I will stop gambling and call it a day. You can discipline yourself on that and you will succeed as along as you can control yourself. It is when you are after making profits and put gambling as your priority is when it will be difficult for stop at the right time. You can also use a specific amount of money that you can afford to lose to control your gambling timeline.

Let's say, for instance, I consider myself to be unlucky in gambling in a particular week or month. I can easily decide to stop gambling for the main time in order for me not to end up losing more money than I could have possibly avoided just because I'm looking for the perfect procedure and guidance to do that when stopping is actually the right thing to do. Why study then? The best move to take, or better still, put your time on other things until there is a need to come back to gambling.

We are ought to keep in check of our gambling behaviors not only when we are winning infact we need to be even be more careful whenever we are Lossing too while it is not easy to stop after winning the same is also applicable when in losses, it requires lots of discipline to actually know when best to stop in any of the situations we find ourselves, winning increasese confidence while losing can make you chase losses but however we should be very intentional to control our emotions as much as we can in other for us to enjoy coming back the next time.

Based on the OP, explain and question which is if we're to believe in luck and continue to play the game, or follow the rules.
I believe every gambler that have the impression of continuing with the game has already lost the game from the get-go because s/he breaks his/her own rules, and rules are to be set in stone. Besides, the gambler is on the verge of addiction because if the gambler can't follow his/her own rules, how can s/he follow the rules of gambling profitably?

Stop in time actually means mental awareness about the concept that the house edge is always in favor of the casino, and every opportunity not seized will lead to a loss.

Most people learnt the hard way, they lost w lot of money before they realized that it's impossible to Chase losses. That's why those are more experienced in the forum give out solid advice to beginner gamblers about chasing losses and greed. They say that experience is the best teacher but instead of going through something that's negative why not learn from other people's mistakes, this is what makes you smart

100% agree. Legit the hardest part about gambling isn’t picking winners, it’s knowing when to walk away like a legend xD.

Hitting 3 straight and still pressing? Mate that’s when the universe rolls its sleeves up, says nope not today, and humbles the hell out of you.

I’ve seen more bankrolls die on “just one more bet” than bad picks. A stop rule (even if it’s just vibes-based lmao) is the difference between cashing out and staring at your balance like a ghost.

Smart degeneracy xD > blind faith. 😎

One should never gamble one after the other because it can quickly lead to gambling addiction. I have never gambled one after the other. I have gambled a maximum of two times a day in my gambling experience. I have never gambled more than that in a day. Whenever a person wins three times in a row, he must stop gambling and use what he has won for good. When I gamble, I withdraw my winnings in full and use that money for good and keep some part to participate in gambling later. However, this is possible for a responsible gambler but it may not be possible for an addicted gambler because an addicted gambler may later use that winnings to gamble more. However, everyone should withdraw the money and use it for good.

I think this principle is quite okay for a gambler who doesn't want to get addicted to gambling.Set a limit in regards to gambling,the question you should ask yourself is,how many times can I go in a row?and your minimum should not be above 3 or 4 times otherwise it's no longer gambling for fun rather you've started chasing your losses.Don't expect winning after several wins, practice the rule of stopping in time.When the luck most gamblers expect isn't working out then this principle should be applied.This principle of "stopping in time" can also imbibe the habit of gambling responsibly in the life of a gambler.

It seems like a good strategy for when we stop playing gambling, and I think it's a good habit for all gamblers who want to be responsible gamblers and 3 consecutive winnings
are a good sign to stop, that's fine with me.

But what if it always happens that only 2 consecutive winnings always happen? Then we will just continue to play until we run out of balance in our bankroll,
is that right?

You will be in a favorable side if you know how to set your limitation, just set you target both on the amount you are capable to let go and also an amount that you are okay to quit when you already reach your target profits, more on how good you are executing your set targe and not to exceed to prevent losing a lot and manage to take advantage of luck that may show up while you are in session..

Different approach though on each gamblers who play and how they set things up in terms of allowable budget on both time and money that they willing to spent.

In gambling limitation is a very important thing. If someone cannot set a limit then he will not be able to survive in gambling for a long time. I have observed myself and other gamblers gambling where the gambler has lost all his money due to not setting a limit. If after one or two wins there is a hope of more profit then the gambler will definitely lose. In this case even if the gambler's bankroll is very high, that gambler will lose. Gamblers who can control themselves quickly they can take break. If a gambler expects to win a lot in a short period of time, he is sure to lose. Gamblers should remember that gambling is not a get-rich-quick scheme.

Stopping in time might not be the actual solution we need but we can't dispute the fact that it can control a lot of damage that continuous gambling can cause... although this is a temporary solution to it and it cannot curb gambling addiction...like you said, to stop gambling there are certain guidelines to follow and one of them is trying hard to reduce your gambling activities, if you can do this you can make gradual progress.

Limitation is indeed crucial when you do gamble because once you dont have these limits then it would be that potentially be putting you into that condition that you might suffer from some serious financial loses or devastation. Gambling isnt bad as long you do make yourself that responsible because usually gamblers do become that irresponsible or becoming that impulsive at the moment or time that they do lose up that huge amount of money. The main issue on here is about into your mentality and with your emotions on which if you are someone who isnt that good when it comes to controlling up these things then you do likely be ending up on having that very huge problem afterwards. We do know that gambling should be just that for fun but cant be able to deny that losing money is never been fun and thats why people would be normally be having those reactions. The only shit thing on here is that some people do go into that certain extent on which something that shouldnt be done in the first place.

There are people who are still very privileged to have access to information that will equip and educate them about what to expect when they follow a particular gambling approach and how to be safe and avoid being reckless, but they will still choose to follow their own path and learn the hard way. Some believe they have a different path and they don't share the same faith with others in gambling, which is true, but the end result of chasing losses doesn't always end well.

Gambling is fun for those who still have a lot of money or those who have committed from the beginning,
however, the result is that they will still be happy even if it is only a loss that they get.

But some people just say at the beginning that gambling is fun, but when they have a loss that gets more losses they say that gambling shouldn't give them continuous losses,
and eventually they keep doing it until they get a win, which in the end just costs the brand money and is replaced with a little winning.

And everyone has their own level of patience, when they always lose they will keep adding money to play and when they win they can't stop,
this will be a dangerous habit and will not be able to get out of gambling in peace.

But still though, if you know that gambling is making your life worst, then it's really better to stop. Especially if you are in a losing streak and you really don't know what to do except to come back and gamble again. On the other hand, your bank account is going down as you are gambling the money that you have save.

So logically, it's better to stop gambling for good. But it you can't then take control of yourself and not the other way around. Because if gambling is the one taking over, then you will get rekt and your life be ruin and it might be late for you.

If that happens a lot, that is precisely one of the biggest traps of the game , when we focus on when we are about to win or we believe that we are going to win, there at that Moment , but we are looking for that moment or that point where we lose the most money, and that is Something that must be avoided, that is why by controlling money we cannot fall into that error.

Great point! I think this 'trick' of stopping in time is actually one of the smartest attitudes in any type of bet or strategy. Often, it's not even about luck or technique, but about recognizing the right moment to stop, before greed takes over. The Martingale, for example, can be seductive, but it is also extremely risky with no clear limits. Ultimately, more than a strategy, it is an exercise in discipline and self-knowledge. But are most players really able to apply this self-control in practice?

I know the whole gist is better when you have a budget and fund the casino only once with your deposits. Where stopping in time applies very well is if you experienced a big win or if you are experiencing a loosing streak, but if you're just having a normal gambling day, you can go on and on until your budget for the day is exhausted or your gambling session for the day terminates. An addicted person who continues gambling without budget nor timeframe would have expended a lot of funds before he even realizes himself and reducing your gambling activities without built in structure to checkmate you is still subject to lack of control.

All gamblers play for a reason. Everyone has their own goal - it's some kind of purchase, either small or large, for someone, maybe a car, and so everyone has a certain number in their head. This is the amount of winnings after which this goal will be achieved.

Based on this, each gambler must understand for himself: What amount does he need? And if you write that you need to make three wins, this means that this amount must be divided by three, after which any normal gambler will simply stop, Because his goal will really be achieved and there will be no further sense in playing and putting the won funds at risk.

Yes, indeed, many have drawn a large sum in their heads, upon reaching which they will try to say the word stop and not continue the game, because they will be able to afford to buy what they wanted. But I want to say that most players will not reach this sum, because losses will overtake them faster, or some players will come too close to their dream, and then luck in the game will leave them and the balances will go into the negative. The main thing that I understood from this is that our goals should be realistic, and not too high, and the second option is to think about using a strategy of gradual withdrawal of winnings, even if they are small, because in this case we will at least have something, if luck leaves us later.

Yes, absolutely right, and I even know what logic can be used to calculate the amount of the prize that can be fairly counted on. If we judge very roughly, then the chances of each person to win in a casino are about 50%, we will not count the casino commission or factors such as 0 on roulette. We are now trying to calculate a very approximate value.
Based on this, it turns out that if a gambler makes a deposit, then the maximum prize he can count on is twice as much as his deposit. Upon reaching this prize, any gambler must stop and take the money.

It is. But it needs a lot of discipline. Those who cannot even control themselves by gambling more due to chasing the losses cannot really make this happen because their mind is too focused on just getting their revenge.

I think the main problem will always be those who cannot even think twice about what they will do next. They are having a hard time telling themselves that it is enough and they must stop to avoid more losses. It happens most of the time, but it is still a problem even now.

OP, you can definitely think of this as a separate strategy because it is impossible for a gambler to stop in time and only those who can make this impossible possible can succeed in gambling. After three consecutive wins, a gambler should definitely stop gambling for a while. But instead of stopping, many gamblers start betting again, and thus a gambler forgets that he should have stopped in time. This strategy is certainly difficult for a gambler to master and can certainly be called a strategic quality.

I think what the OP said has a point, but it heavily depends on personal limits. Some people might stop immediately after a big win on their first bet, while others would stake some of their winnings again. On the other hand, sometimes gamblers have a kind of belief, when they win three times in a row, they're convinced it's their lucky day. I don't think anyone with that kind of belief would even consider it the right time to quit, they will even think otherwise to bet all their budget. In many cases, we also often see people forgetting to withdraw their initial capital when in a winning position, although I believe that there are gamblers who are able to stop in time, regardless of whether they are in a winning or losing position.

You can't be sure that you will win three games in a row. Gambling is full of uncertainty. You may not be able to predict when you will win, most of the time you will lose. In gambling, your strategy may not be effective if you cannot control yourself. What I mean is that you have to practice self control and keep within the allotted limits. When you stop depends on your budget and your own plan. In my opinion, if you can win at least one game, you should stop playing for that period because you may lose the next game.

Yes, it means that planning related to stopping at the right time must also be accompanied by other planning so that someone can really avoid addiction, one of which in my opinion is perhaps by keeping yourself busy with various other activities, if for example you have a lot of free time every day then you have no choice but to try to find other activities to keep yourself busy, you can try to add a part-time job and when you have succeeded in having additional activities then I am sure you will be a little distracted from gambling, I have also done it and believe me it is really very difficult to exclude yourself from the activities we have just to gamble, the benefit is that your interest will remain limited to gambling.

The only strategy I can suggest is self-control, if you can control your strong emotions you have won in any sector.
Gambling plays a lot on sensation, it plays a lot on the feelings of the player, if you can't control yourself you are simply
a pawn to be controlled.
Always keep calm, don't think that the money you gambled is lost, simply consider it lost regardless every time you make a play,
if you win then it's good, if you lose you were psychologically ready to lose.
Never bet more than you can afford, if luck turns on your side even a minimum bet could be enough.
If you want to experience pure adrenaline go down the mountain with your bike, you will have a scary boost.. jokes aside
control your emotions or they will end up destroying you.

It can be difficult to stop once you have started losing money from your account on gambling because you need to accept that this money will be lost for good, especially if you have decided to stop and leave gambling behind. It is even more important to know how to stop before you reach a big loss. If you face a few losses it is better to take a break and come back later. Trying to win it back right away can only make things worse. And playing with money from your savings should always be strictly off limits.

Following you with your statement, allowing yourself to perform your created strategy always depends on how you control yourself, executing things in a discipline ways and not to allow emotions to dominates, stopping on the right time is a self defined thing in each gambler, if you believe that you can execute your strategy what best to combine is the timing of execution, like you said if you already win why bother to push forward better to quit and enjoy your earnings, there are always lots of time for your gambling activities. Enjoy the opportunity that's being given it's not always be the same outcome.

To get an adrenaline rush on a mountain bike, you need to have much more money than you would need to get an adrenaline rush by risking $50-100 in gambling. A good bike for downhill mountain biking costs around $4,000. I don't think everyone can afford such entertainment. In addition, this sport is very dangerous and can even lead to death. That is why so many people choose gambling as a form of entertainment rather than extreme sports.

The second rule is the best in such situation, which is to stop in time because if you choose to continue you will be surprised to see yourself being left with nothing, is just like what happened to me some years past when I first experienced win in gamble the feeling of stopping in time was not there instead I was believing in luck and continue playing to a point where i lost more than 50 percent of that money that I win from gambling that's when I was able to realized what I was actually doing then I decided to stop, so ever since then whenever I experience win in gamble I always take a break for sometime before I will think of gambling again.

When a gambler doesn't make plans before they start gambling, it always turns out this way. It's difficult to accept defeat when you did not plan for it before you engaged in it. It's easier to let go if you are the type that gives and takes self-advice.

You can, from that moment when you lose the amount which you did not prepare to lose, advise yourself to stop at that moment and leave the casino. Because for you to lose that way, there is a high tendency of even losing more, which can be avoided if you just walk away, but some are not ready for this, and they always walk into the trap of chasing their losses over and over again until the amount rises into what's impossible to recover.

A gambler should indeed make plans and that is true. Before you sit down and start rolling your bets, you should know how much you can allocate for that session and be strict about it. Because in this game, it is too easy to be addicted and you won't have time to recover what has been lost from you. I've learned my lessons in gambling, if you really don't stop when you say you would stop, for sure, you would have problems later on. So be strict with yourself and follow your instincts to stop. Otherwise, you will carry the consequences of your decision later on.
If you would just follow your desires in gambling, more than likely, you won't stop playing up until you are broke or have loans from the people around you. Don't wait for such tight situation before you wake up from reality of your finances.

That's what it's all about my friend, enjoying the profits, and that may be the best indicator of starting to gamble, when there are profits that you can't enjoy at the moment of withdrawing the money it's better to do it that way, otherwise if we look for more, if we start with greed then we could lose everything, and that's not just losing money, it's wasting time, effort that was put into being able to win , for it to go away like that without any more anger, for me it's a good indication to stop.

Stopping in time is a temporal solution, it's stops the gambler from making further mistakes...but like you said this could not be the actual solution, the gambler needs to take more conscious approach to tackle this disturbing behavior... stopping gambling isn't just a days job but it's not something that's impossible, if the gambler is determined he is going to come out of the addiction but it's not going to be easy

It's just unfortunate that many people do not know or seem to forget that stopping casino in a bad days is also a winning strategy.  This because if you don't stop when you a loosing streak, you will lose your entire account balance and from that time onward, your gambling will be more focused on recovering your loss. This means that not stopping when you should could  you to a very terrible financial situation.

On the one hand the ability to stop in time to avoid losing more money is a great skill, but on the other hand there are no guarantees, rather on the contrary, there is a possibility that over time this fine line will become more and more blurred and will lead to the point where ‘stopping in time’ will mean losing all the money. So this is really more of a temporary solution than the other way round

discipline is one big factor in gambling and most people dont have this, the excitement is the thinkg that rollin into their mind and forget how to stop.
i will admit, sometimes to most of the time is my problem. I cant control myself coz my explanation to myself is luck, i am still lucky and will continue to bet. which ends my money also :)

Just having your self control with the game is quite enough to control your gambling addiction, at the first place if you know to yourself you have a limit such as into deposits, wages and the wins amount or losses this helps already as your guide incase you get loss with your path because of your emotions like eagerness to play more games, also set your boundaries if you told to yourself to stop and that's all follow it its part of the discipline as a gambler mark your words and not because you win once you will win more consecutive its gambling only small ration of wins happens not all the players are winners.

There's a lot of negative impact for not stopping at the right time when gambling. If you don't stop at the right time, it will lead to more losses. Since it's an amount of money that you can afford to loss, it will affect you emotionally, financially and physically because your mood will change and you wouldn't be happy with people when communicating with them.

Stopping in time is not possible but those who can stop in time the can make a good like and also can make a good amount of money without too much hastle and they have almost no chance to be a loser and if the person still be come loser then the person would be able to recover the fund as soon as possible at any means.

Stopping in time does not stop a loser from becoming a loser, except for the person who have won and then decided to stop at that very moment they won, but like I would always say, a gambler who won and decide to stop gambling at that very moment can only keep that winning if he or she does not return to gambling soonest with the same money.

If the gambler will return maybe the next day with that same money, there is still every chance that he or she could end up still losing.
So I think the best way to safeguard one self from making such mistake is after a win withdraw the 90 percent of the money and never gamble with it, continue gambling with the remaining 10 percent and if this is lost, then rest and only invest the 90 percent in a business that is sure to bring good profit, you can continue gambling from the part of the profit made from that business.

Can you tell when you will win and how long or how many losses you will have to make before you win? No one can guarantee this, so you can never stop gambling at the right time. You can only use gambling as fun and set a target that if for some reason your balance increases to a maximum of three times, then you will stop gambling and withdraw your money. This can be just your personal strategy that you can use to comfort yourself. You cannot become a successful person by using any strategy in gambling because everything depends on your luck. Using strategy is just to comfort yourself and have fun.

Sometimes even when you stop early their is always the chances of going to play back again maybe during another gambling session because if you are struggling or finding it hard to stop then you will eventually go back maybe when your head is all cooled off because even the small amount of money lost in gambling tend to trigger gamblers in trying to win it back so the best for me is strict discipline with your gambling or playing time.

absolutely right. When you lose control, gambling and addiction will go hand in hand. How big your bankroll is no matter, you will fall into a trap at the end of the day. Sometimes a wagerer might be identified that he should walk away now, but fails to free himself from the spike.

It is foolish to immediately recover the money lost in gambling. As a result, we lose more money. At the same time, we should stop after winning a large amount. We become too greedy and continue gambling even after winning big in gambling. And most of the time, we keep losing money. So I always try to take a break from gambling after big wins and big losses in gambling. But it is not always possible to do this if you do not practice responsible gambling.

Indeed, need to be wiser in terms of decisioning, not just the money but all the efforts that you put in working with strategy or plan that you made when playing, always be the best decision is to quit while you are still at green, whatever the amount as long as you gain from your initial deposit that's still consider as profits, better than losing your chance taking your earnings out from your gambling activities.

In order to withdraw winnings, you first need to make sure there’s something to withdraw. Yes, you’re right when you have profit from your deposit, you should take it out. But it’s also important to stop not only when you’ve secured a good win, but also when you’ve had several losses in a row. That’s a clear sign that you need to stop and take a break, so you don’t end up losing even more.

Exactly, not just when winning but also you need to understand the risk of keep pushing forward when you already experiencing losing streaks, to avoid losing everything and to tap up another deposit, better to have that limit and keep your strategy up, don't put your guard down and allow your emotions to control over, your decision making is very important and you need to make sure that you are in-line with how you set things before placing your bet.

I believe that strategy in gambling will not help you win, as the probability of success depends heavily on chance, but using strategy in some games of chance may well increase the length of your gambling session. When it comes to the Martingale strategy, I would not recommend getting carried away with it, as it is very risky and very often leads to a situation where, in order to recoup your last loss and make a profit equal to your initial bet, you have to risk everything you have left in your pocket. There are much less risky strategies for managing your bankroll, but unfortunately, even they cannot guarantee a win.

With planning and proper execution, it is going to have a smooth gambling journey. Sometimes we may complain about the losses we have, but at least we understand why this happens. Unlike gambling blindly, where, in most cases, winning or losing, we still complain, thinking that we are cheated.

However, a gambler will not just know how to plan well but also have a need to manage themselves. We can somehow lose our money, but we should not lose control of ourselves. This is the last asset that we need to protect, or else we are putting ourselves at high risk.

Yes I agree with this your theory because most people who has lost huge amounts of money to gambling is as a result of not willing to stop when it was time for them to stop one thing about gambling that really makes people to always continue is the fact that when you win the temptation of playing more so that you can continue to win steps in and this is where casinos get people, so this theory is worth applying as it will be helpful to both the person that is losing and even the person that is winning setting a limit to stop is the best idea

No matter what the gambler plans from the beginning, at the end of the day he loses control over himself. I am a game I start with a lot of plans, but since I lose control over myself because I feel the pressure on myself very quickly. But I do not know if this is the same situation in all gamblers. Everything that wins or loses is in it, it will not have any kind of disappearance. By keeping control of yourself, you should still give a foot so that your fund can be saved and some money can be made. This will reduce the risk.

It's surprising that people are exposed to a lot of things that are meant to guide them on what not to do when gambling but they still end up doing whatever they want. Even on the forum people are being educated on how to maintain self discipline and also be a better gambler but people are still choosing to be ignorant. It's all a matter of choice, you can force the horse to stream but you can't force it to drink water

Many gamblers are like this but we shouldn't underestimate the ones that can finally control themselves and stop in the right time.

Despite with all of the experiences of the gamblers that have no longer control themselves. It's still better that someone is able to control themselves in time because they're able to overcome it.

And these people have got a long history of uncontrollable gambling but then, they've learned the hard way.

Some people have a target amount they want to win before they stop gambling for the day and if they haven't fulfil that target it is always difficult for them to withdraw the little profits they have made. Though i don't like the idea of setting a winning target because i believe that inasmuch as you are able to increase your deposited money, regardless of how little the profit is just take it out and probably continue next day or next time but greed won't allow most gamblers to employ that strategy since majority of gamblers are interested in huge wins.

There are things that people find it difficult to put into practice even after learning and knowing the truth and gambling is one of the things, if you keep advising people on the basic approach to take to maintain a healthy gambling life they can only listen but they can't implement all you tell them because it's very difficult to apply in real life. Allow people to gamble until they get the bitter lesson out of it they will learn to apply self defense and discipline.

I don't understand this stop in time approach in relation to a gambling strategy... Hear me out, when you choose to go for a strategy like Martingale in roulette, you know very well that you can push 10 or is it 15 rounds before a winner comes but if you are to stop just after a win then no profits for you as you are likely to just breakeven . Tbh with such strategies, to make a profit one needs to be kind of aggressive to be the house.

Go big, or Go home...have fun out there.

There are many who want to continue gambling with the aim of a certain win, but they should first try to understand the reality, because gambling is a place where you think you can easily win according to your expectations, but this is only possible in reality as imagination, but in reality it is never possible to win in this way, even if you win, you will not be able to stop at the right time, because after that you will be greedier, so you will not be able to stop at the right time to achieve your expected profit. So you should have a gambling mentality with reality, not emotion.

I think that stopping in time refers to the fact of recognizing when to stop before committing huge economic damages.
Of course when you are in the game as for example in roulette you have to risk it by rolling at least 15 times.
This rule does not apply to any game, if you are in the game and you want to risk trying your luck you have to be clear-headed and not get carried away
by adrenaline.
If instead you have obtained a win even small stop, think and risk if you feel lucky, do not go beyond your possibilities.
It all seems simple but when you are in the dance you have two options, leave the dance floor or dance!

I'm glad you said it's all a matter of choice; you can't force anyone to learn. No matter how exposed they are to learning materials, they will still want to follow their own path. For some, it's not as if they don't know how important it is to discipline themselves in terms of gambling or how to do it, but they just choose to ignore it, thinking they can invent a strategy that could be used to outsmart the system, which will still end them on a losing streak.

You're right. I have a much more rigorous approach. I think like the casino. Every deposit must be carefully considered, and if I have the opportunity to withdraw it, I do so Why? Because I only say that I have money when I have it in my wallet or in my hands Otherwise, the money isn't mine, but belongs to the casino or exchange where I have it, There's nothing safer than having it in our hands at all times.

I agree with you; knowing when to stop is not just about when one is winning, but also when losses are increasing to a point that one can't afford to continue. While gambling, one needs to be very wise in making decisions, not only in winning but also in losing. Gambling is not just about giving attention to winning but also to losing.

When winning, it is important to understand that one should walk away with the profits they have made so far. Trying to get more can lead to losing everything; the same thing applies to chasing losses. Trying to recover losses can often result in losing even more money. Understanding is very important in gambling; it helps one make better decisions in both winning and losing.

Once you're gambling and things are not working right as expected of you, then try to pause and give it some thoughts to plan over it again and apply different approach over your gambling, because this is what we need to control and watch how everything goes well with us as we are gambling, because if we fail to have the necessary satisfaction in gambling, we may end up being frustrated at the cause, which may not give us the adequate pleasure we are deserving in it.

In gambling, having the right plan and the right mindset is very important, losing is very natural here, but one should never get emotional because of the loss. Gambling is only for entertainment, whether it is a win or a loss, you should feel satisfied with any result. Always keep your emotions under control and gamble with the right mindset, an over excited and greedy attitude in gambling will only affect the gambler negatively.

I think it’s not really about the fact that you might get disappointed, everything happens a little differently. A person starts playing, and when they realize they can’t win and only keep losing again and again, they start taking losses. These losses accumulate, and eventually it gets difficult because you want to win back what you’ve lost. At first, it seems possible, so you keep playing. Maybe some people make the mistake of increasing their bets in an attempt to recover losses faster. But this can lead to even bigger losses, and those losses can grow significantly.

In that case, it’s definitely better to stop, because it clearly means gambling is not for you and you’re not capable of making money this way. Some people will stop, others will keep playing, but stopping in such a situation should be an absolute rule, and it’s very important for beginners to understand this right at the start, even before they begin playing.

There should be a time limit for your gambling activities and also having a gambling budget will limit you from exceeding beyond the budgeted amount for that day if you can stick to it. When you are winning, don't get carried away and feel that you are in your lucky day, so you should just keep on gambling. After some consecutive wins, comes losses that might lead to empty bankroll.

Yes you’re right and it takes discipline to stick to your gambling budget/plan for that session. We often talk about the dangers of chasing losses as a gambler but hardly talk about the lure of chasing a winning streak. Only a gambler who has developed a habit of gambling responsibly can call it quits when every sense in his body is saying otherwise. 

101% of us does really want to win up something with gambling on which it will the main purpose on why we do play gambling in the first place, even if we do say that we are just that doing for fun but we cant be able to avoid nor remove the fact that we are here to win up and thats the fact. There are just that those individuals who can be able to stick up with their plans on having that fun and despite of having those loses then they can be able to control themselves on not to become impulsive on which it is totally opposite or difference into those gamblers who do play gambling for the sake of money making and not for fun on which most of the time they do become that impulsive and becoming that too emotional on which it will be causing up that kind of action on which it will be leading into too much spending or simply going out or beyond within your limits. There are those times or moments that you might be able to stop up midway but of course it will be needing up that kind of strong discipline towards self because at the time or moment that you do become that having no control then it will be affecting out on things on which arent supposed to be that affected specially with financial state on which this is that very crucial. Stopping on the right time might that sounds pretty basic but this is actually the thing that makes you that having the hard time on doing that at the time that you are on such condition. There are just that those times that you do lose control but eventually going back on track because you have realized that you have done something which isnt that part of your plan or limits. Gambling isnt bad as long you do make yourself that responsible and not be ending up on being that impulsive because this is where usually gamblers do  fail on doing so. There are just that those conditions that you will be that out of your limitations just because you do believe that you can be able to pull through that win for you to be able to make out some break even on what you had lost earlier. If you arent that good when it comes to self control then you would be definitely be failing up and make up that even bigger loses with gambling.

Honestly, being that humans are greedy it would be extremely difficult to maintain this strategic rule after having to lose many different times. And here you are, now getting lucky to have won 3 sessions in a row. Many persons will want to push the luck further under the thought of trying the utilize the opportunity now they have it. Perhaps, those gamblers with strong discipline can be the only ones to adhere to such rules under this circumstance.

This is a common mistake that a lot of gamblers make, they get greedy when they are making profit and this is where losses starts for them. Greed is something that's capable of making you lose easily as a gambler. I have trained myself to always take profit whenever I'm lucky enough to have it because I know that it's very hard to come by. We learn by experience, after going through some down moments we'd learn eventually

A great quality of an ideal gambler is being able to stop at the right time. As easy as we think from the outside, the matter is not that easy. Imagine yourself in the place of a gambler and in that place you think that you have lost a lot of money in the previous few bets and there is an opportunity to make another bet in front of you. If you win, then the amount of money you lost can come back, but if you lose, then the money will be lost again like the previous bet. But in fact, it is difficult to make a decision. Most gamblers cannot stop at this time, but they bet again without thinking anything and it turns out that they are losing money again. That is why it is very important for the gambler to have complete control over the game of gambling. If gambling controls the gambler, that is a problem, a new person can play gambling very easily but not all gamblers can play gambling with the right strategy, so it is very important to know when to stop.

You will not be able to stop in time if you rely only on controlling your emotions. Because if you face a lot of losses you still will not understand when you need to stop. But if you set a clear budget for yourself after which you should stop it will be a clear trigger for you. It will mean that you have reached some critical level that should not be exceeded. It will not work for everyone but it is better to have such a stop for yourself.

It's been said many times that if you want to enjoy gambling without destroying yourself and your surroundings, you will have to put limits. First and foremost, to you as a person. I won't talk about the people who insist on playing to recover their losses and end up in debt and bad situations. A lot of people continue gambling even if they win enough. They don't withdraw to enjoy their winnings and try again another time. Persistent gambling isn't good, whether you are winning or losing.

And when. Greed meets gambling it is very dangerous people are trying to make a quick win and think they can out smart the system but it does not work that way you just have to be ready to work on how to strategies things your self and even with the strategies you might want to come up with. Gambling is still about luck because after the whole game arrangement don't be surprised that one game will still end it.

And pushing your luck further might just make things more dirty so we need to do everything possible with all seriousness just to put things in other. And from the beginning every gambler knows already that everything is going to be a fity fity situation. So they know the risk behind gambling but just that you don't know when your luck will shine so just have to keep trying until you win. Given up early does not make any sense at all so this are all part of the reasons why they will continue gambling.

For me, I think it is easier to stop when winning. Judging from my personality, I will feel hurt and disappointed in myself if I end up losing the money I have managed to win. This means that if I win during the first round, I might call it a day because I have gotten what I wanted, and I wouldn't want to risk losing it again.

On the other hand, there is this feeling that comes with losing; you will always want to try again to see if the second round will be better. This is where I think having a budget would play a crucial role in helping a conscious gambler know when to stop, probably as soon as they exhaust their budget for that day.

Personalities are really different, but whatever a gambler does, he should always be conscious of himself.

The funny thing is that it doesn't take long for the greed to kick in because the moment you are not satisfied with the big win and decides to top up your win and then eventually you lose on that extra try to add up the funds then the case becomes different because now you won't fight to add the win again but rather to chase the first initial win you had.

When playing gambling, it is important for gamblers or gamblers should appreciate how they are or they know where and when to take profit when they play gambling. When greed comes first, it is for sure that their game will end even if the method they use is martingale, it is for sure that the result will not be good in the end.

But if they only had what is called self-discipline and self-control, they would also know where to take profit if they need to stop playing gambling because they know that they already have a winning that should be released or withdrawn.

And that's the exact reason why those set of gamblers who has the ideology of always exhausting every winning opportunity will always end up losing all their entire money back to the casino. Because on the contrary, gambling is a game of luck, and as such, if a gambler has been opporturned to win consecutively for 3 times, for me, I actually see that to be enough for such individual to take a break, because any gambling is not a do or die affair, as you could be lucky now and winning and in the next few seconds you could be losing your bet too. Hence, it's best all gamblers inculcate the habit of responsible gambling, knowing fully well that in a long run, casino always stand a greater of being at advantage of maximizing profit.
