Which is easier, stop when you are winning or stop when you are losing?

[Kakmakr]

I gamble for the entertainment, so staying within my budget is quite simple. I have set aside a percentage of my income for entertainment and I work out how many times I can gamble and/or go to the movies and out for lunch in advance. If I go over my budget for one of these things, I do not have any money left over to enjoy the rest of the month, so I am forced to stay within my own budget.  

I have to be honest too, if I am on a winning streak... it is sometimes very difficult to cash out and to stop, because you always feel that it is not your money that you are gambling with. I normally go on too long and I break even with what I started with, but it is always a lot of fun.

I promised myself, if I start chasing losses, I will stop gambling.

I like to know your opinion about the question because I believe every gambler has a different way of managing himself.

My answer to the question is I can easily stop when I am winning because I am afraid I might end up with nothing since I know to myself that I am not yet consistent enough to win in gambling, however, based on my experience, I can't easily stop when I am losing despite the fact that I already set up a limit to gamble in a certain day or a certain session.

Do we have the same attitude or not?

Ohh this is an interesting question!

Winning and losing actually puts a gambler in a pedestal on whether to gamble or to stop. Most gamblers that I know, whenever they win, they would continue to gambling but when they lost, they try to recover the value that they had just lost. It's actually funny and at the same time problematic on where to draw the line on stopping on your winnings or continue to recover your losses.

It would be easier to stop gambling when you are winning. Commonly, if you lose, you tend to play more to get your money back. And that will lead you to play more and you won't stop until you are satisfied or win. If you win, you will consider that you should stop so you can prevent from losing in the end.

To be honest, it's not that easy to stop especially if you are on a winning streak. Not to mention, losing in gambling makes you want to gamble more in order to recover your losses. The key here is to bring only a limited amount of money and bring someone in order to tell you to stop.

[Sanitough]

It is subjective question, every gambler has their own opinion based on their own experience but mostly it is hard to stop no matter we are winning or losing but for me it is easier to stop when I'm losing because I will stop when I lose all my budget.

Well, I can tell that you are a discipline gambler because not every gambler has the ability to stop when they are losing, some might affect their ego and they'll gamble up to the remaining centavo and this is what we called gambling with our emotion instead of gambling our mind, which is wrong.

When I'm winning, most of the time I will continue playing but I wont use all my winning. At least I will withdraw some of my winning first before continue playing.

That's playing though,... my style is different, I know when to stop but I only withdraw when I am done playing but I'll make sure I end up profitable when I feel I have a lucky day in gambling as even small winnings matters a lot for gamblers who does not win most of the time.

Others can stop when theyre winning but majority would just only stop when they dont have anymore money into their pockets.Why? they do ask for more and the fact or the reality
where greed sits in its already a hard thing to be stopped.You would really have that mindset that if you do play even more you might even to hit more bigger.
This is where most people do made some mistake which they cant stop while in midway or on winning situations.On my situation i cant really conclude that i would able to stop myself
yet there are time where greediness do really controls you hard.

Going by the experience and observing people who gamble, I think if people are little self-disciplined or have some control then it is little easier to stop during winning streaks because you know you have made money and there is high chances that more you play you might end up on a losing note. So, since you have made money one can stop it.

hard but true mate,that is what really made people to stop gambling when they run out of money,when they all spent and lose the money in pocket so they have no choice but to stop playing.

yet there are time where greediness do really controls you hard.

actually that is the Main reason why we are more loser than winner because we follow our greed than our main objective and that is just to win and not to seek more than what we can have.

When I was just starting with gambling, 5-6 years ago, I used to play dice mostly, and, like probably any beginner, I played with martingale. I found that it was easy to stop after playing(and chatting) for 20-30 minutes, but only in the case of winning. When you are losing, it's impossible to stop martingale(and I'm not talking about autobet, even, I mean manual betting).

Months later, after losing an amount sufficient to start thinking on changing my betting strategy I finally decided to stop using martingale. From then on I've been more safely, and, with some rare exceptions, I never lose all my balance within a short period of time. I set a limit, and although I can exceed it sometimes by 30-40%, this manner of playing is still good enough for saving most of my balance. In short, I can easily stop after a win, but stopping when I am losing is not that easy. For that I need to exercise self-control, to set limits etc.

[janggernaut]

Stop when i'm on winning streak. If i lose, i can't stop because i will become greedy and deposit more and more until i recovered all of my losses before even though i need to make very risky bet to get my losses before

[ethereumhunter]

I can stop easily no matter what the result is because I don't use gambling to make money. I think when we feel difficult to stop gambling, especially if we win, we can be addicted to gambling. So we need to have a limit on gambling, and we also need to remember that gambling is not for making money. But if someone can stop when you are winning, that will be good because he can save the winning money for the next days or another thing.

It actually depends on how gamblers manage themselves while they gamble. Its fun and entertaining especially during leisure time but people have various of ways on dealing with themselves. Most of them knows their own limitation while others do not because of gambling addiction. Personally, Its not difficult for me to stop myself since I know how to control myself. Before I learned the purpose of self-discipline, losing my funds is the specific reason why I stop because it makes me realize that my time and money is wasted except that I had fun.

[ScamViruS]

When I win a good amount, I try to control myself. I stopped playing for that day. And when I lose, then emotion works more and more, to recover lost funds, as a result I lose all the funds later. Since I gamble with less funds, it doesn't hurt to lose it. I am not addicted to gambling so I gamble as entertainment. I think it all depends on the gamblers how they can control themselves.

[Rikafip]

For me, it was always harder to stop when loosing, and it wasn't just matter of money, my bigger issue was the loss itself, as i generally hate loosing, be it in sports, gambling or trading. And I am sure I'm not the only one, whole gambling business works as it is because of people that can't control themselves, whether in wins or losses, that's how they make their profit. If you push your lusk you will eventually run out of it, and if it's not your day, you will get nervous and start making some bad and irrational decisions. Big part of being pro is ability to control that, bur rare are able to do it.

When i first started crypto trading (bare in mind I am not some pro trader, not even close, I just trade a bit, with small portion of portfolio), biggest issue for me was to accept the loss  sometimes, as i brought the same "style" from gambling/betting. I would wait for too long, and instead taking 5% loss, i would end up in 30-40% loss. But through some experience, and losses, I managed to learn that lesson.

[kayvie]

As for my experience, it is much easier to stop when you are winning than you are losing. You can actually stop if you want to once you win since you already have enough money in your account, unlike if you lose, you will continue to play until you can't control yourself again.

If you are too conscious not to lose much then you opt to stop right after a winning but most gambler may overcomes such factor of fear as their greedy emotion will be stronger than the fear factor. I am also thinking about to wrap up for a day after winning but I go continuing as I do not want to miss out my lucky day without a big win.

Stopping after a loss is not an optional most of the times as I am enforced to quit as there will be no bankroll left after a big bust during my martingale attempts. Also, I never go back with new funds to try recovering my loses. I may start gambling again after a break only.

It's good that you are not eaten by your greed and wanting a big win in a day, sometimes I feel that it's better to profit less than lose bigtime. Playing day by day without the intention of winning a big profit will mostly help you to survive on winning than expecting to get a big win every time you play. I am contented on small winnings as long as I don't lose too much, I also limit the amount I can play every day (maximum amount to lose) to avoid the feeling of getting back the money I lose and making the situation much worst.

I will says this based on my habit and my own experience that during gambling if i compare to those common things above which usually happen in gambling then i will easily to stop gambling while i'm won and so far i can able to control my desire while gambling with not too greedy and usually if i can won 50% or less from my initial amount of money then i will stop and leave the game and starting it again for another days

When you are not greedy then it will be possible and easier for you to stop right after a winning. But, I believe most gambler are stopping after their winning in their beginning days and when they slowly grooming with gambling they become greedy which makes them unable to stop even after losses and winning both.

Simply, only you and not your emotions are not into gambling then you may stop after a winning. If your greedy nature also into gambling then you may not find it is possible to stop even after you win a big amount. Emotions are real factor here in deciding how we will gamble.

Well, there are people that gamble because they are good at it, and they feel good when they win but if they lose the eagerness to win will put them to play again. That is why gambling is not so easy to stop when you tried and feeling good at it. Some people gamble because of entertainment, some are just wasting their money and some are using skill to earn. It actually depends on the decision of a person if he really wants to stop he can stop, he can say that to himself that he needs to stop because he is losing money.

I will says this based on my habit and my own experience that during gambling if i compare to those common things above which usually happen in gambling then i will easily to stop gambling while i'm won and so far i can able to control my desire while gambling with not too greedy and usually if i can won 50% or less from my initial amount of money then i will stop and leave the game and starting it again for another days

This person is one example of a good gambler because he allot a certain amount of money to gamble and it is good to a person if he really wants to gamble, because if they lose they can stop so that he cannot lose all of his money. Just consider the future because even if how much money you have when you are too much addicted to gambling, it can make you poor.

Do we have the same attitude or not?

I amn't gamber and can't answer this question directly but would love to state my opinion.
Without doubt, everything depends on personality, self-control and etc. But on another hand a lot of people find it easy to stop when they win a lot of amount of money. For example when someone won high jackpot during playing slots, in this case a lot of users stop gambling and go away to withdraw funds.
But when someone just plays particular game and wins, then it's usually hard for them to stop because they think like this: Today I'm lucky and let's get the most out of it. Then after some loses they think: let's try one more time and get that high amount back and then you know OP what happens. But it's still individual cause some may thought in different way. For example when you just need 50$ and won this amount, you may not risk to gamble and increase or decrease your money.
But in overall, I can say that when someone wins it's much more easier to stop compared to when someone loses.

[mu_enrico]

As a casual gambler, it is easier for me to stop when I lose since my strategy is simple, "go big or go home." I mean, I always play with a planned budget, let's say $25 at the weekend. This $25 is money that often goes to zero when I play lol.

When I won, I used the money to buy stupid stuff, then regret why I bought that stuff. Well, that's how I enjoy my simple life.
