When is best for a player to draw the line?

[Oasisman]

when is the best time to stop gambling and take a break?
1-when you lose?
2- when you win?

While most people here says that the best time to stop gambling is either of the two as long as you are within your limits and not trying to get past in everything you set on a threshold to avoid getting excessive loses. But, in my opinion, I think it is always better to stop when you are losing, again, that's to avoid getting further losses because that is where it leads to most of the time. In comparison, when you are winning, you will never get to worry when you lose in the next couple or so games as you still have the capital and you're gonna lose the part of your winnings yet. The problem will arise again when you are start losing and that you should start considering in making a stop at that point of time.

They actually don't get angry and emotional because they actually gamble with money they are able to lose comfortably a s still don't get to go bankrupt because it's usually something they can afford to loose as it something away from their earnings at once BuT then with the broke or poor they actually risk with the mindset that they are going to double up that which they have staked but the rich do it for the fun of it but then they aswell have expectations but the difference has always been in the way they both accept their losses when it happens as the rich doesn't get emotional but the poor actually does because some of them actually risked their last funds.

Gambling is always supposed to be for fun a d gambling responsibly means not exceeding they which you can be able to loose at a time so you don't get to be associated and suffer for gambling while loosing the supposed fun.

When they lose in gambling there is a possibility that they are frustrated, upset because of the defeat that occurs and in my opinion it can trigger their own emotions which can cause their thoughts to be uncontrollable so that it can make them take actions that are at great risk, gambling is generally a risky game and for those who cannot control themselves especially with their emotions that lead them to take risky actions it can make them in great losses alone. When gambling ends in defeat they should be able to stop, not continue the game.
That is what must be done, gambling must be done responsibly, not only to prevent the adverse effects on yourself, of course, to prevent the impact that can occur on other people such as the closest family or friends.

But, in my opinion, I think it is always better to stop when you are..

It's best to stop when emotions are high. Regardless whether you are in a losing or winning position. Because when emotions are at peak, we tend to think irrationally and base of our emotion which results are likely to be bad. It's when we win, we become to greedy, when where fearful we are not taking opportunities we should be taking nor letting winners run.

It takes a lot of awareness and emotional control. And sometimes the best thing to do is have some time away from gambling and take breaks with nature or with family.

Depending on the time I spend gambling, I rarely gamble in luck-based games such as slots, poker, live casino (blackjack, Roulette, baccarat) because I think it's a waste of time besides that it can make me uncontrollable because I can spend unexpected amounts of money or money that I can't afford to lose, sometimes Gambling can get carried away if we are not good at managing time and thought patterns. Having a limit to stop gambling if you lose or win is important, don't wait until you get tired before stopping, but stop if you think your money has decreased quite a lot rather than having to experience a bigger loss or if you are able to win even a small amount, it's better to stop and don't go too far rather than lose that victory.

I only gamble on sports betting, I place a bet and then leave it without watching the match so I can stop quickly, if I lose I accept it and if I win it means I'm lucky and don't try to continue but will continue again when the next day there is still a match, the most important thing is for me. Analyze it first before placing a bet so you don't just make a random bet. In addition to not wasting time on sports betting, there is also minimal risk of addiction if you don't bet too much.

A very safe way for gamblers is to draw the line when it's time to stop, yes, as you have done, choose a type of gambling that doesn't take too much risk, namely betting on sports gambling and you have previously analyzed it well and balanced it with a strong belief that The team you bet on will be the winner. and you also behave very carefully and disciplined when you have placed a bet, you immediately leave the place with the aim of not being attracted by the promising lure. Apart from that, you also prevent yourself from continuing to bet there and minimize addiction.
The experience you have had is very good and this needs to be emulated by all gamblers so that they do not experience very bad things due to wrong actions.

I doubt a gambler would stop when he is losing, so it's best done after a win. Take a deep breath, rest your mind, and just think about what to do next or how much you will spend again after that win, and be sure to follow that plan. The best way to follow it is to withdraw the money so that you won't have any reason to continue playing after leaving the amount that you plan to play with.
Why? Because when that balance is still in your wallet, you will keep on playing trying to chase the losses, and the plan is long gone. I have been in that position that's why I can tell how a gambler thinks. There's no ending it until the balance is there and he has the means to continue the game.
Withdrawal is the only best choice to avoid these things from happening.

[ethereumhunter]

We take break after a loss and also a win, because most at times if you keep gambling after a win you get tempted to increase your stake amount to win more, also after a lose we often want to recover our losses . In essence Moderation over everything as you gamble what you are willing and ready to loss, don't allow greed kick in. Once your allocated amount for stake that day is meet stay off.

That's right because no matter what is the outcomes, we will gets tempted to continue playing gambling. If we wins, we wants to gets more winning and vice versa so that can makes us to keeps playing gambling. But we knows that the outcomes will not happens as we wants because gambling is not a place to make money. So we must realizes that playing gambling because of chase the wins is not the right thing and we can only playing gambling because to fills our spare time. If your reason playing gambling because of fills your spare time and have fun and not to chase the wins, you will not gets tempted by gambling. You will knows when to stops your gambling activity, especially if you already use some money to playing gambling. You will stay too long in gambling because that can makes you don't knows when to stops.

It is tricky to know when to stop because in reality the gambler will most probably end up losing money, so the key is to know how to minimize the losses, but you never really know when that would happen.

Strictly speaking the math tells you that if you want to minimize your losses, you shouldn't even start playing, and if you are already playing you should not continue.

But the thing is that most gamblers are not rational, and they play because they have hope.

Therefore, the time to quit is when they spent their allocated money for buying today's hope.

I believe that in order to avoid gambling addiction, it is important to play on holidays or on a schedule, and not just at any free time.
When you only play on certain days, it helps to control your actions and don't let the excitement get the better of you. A regular game schedule allows me to enjoy the excitement without the risk of becoming addicted. It is important to understand that games can be exciting, but they should not become the basis for spending free time. It is better to plan gaming activity in advance so that it does not become intrusive and does not begin to affect my life.
I believe that moderation in everything is the key to a healthy gambling attitude.

[lienfaye]

I stop when I lose, not because I am traumatize with the experience but I don't have money to continue playing. Everytime I gamble, I have a set budget on how much to spend and that's from my allocated money for leisure during payday. It's not a huge amount, just right to entertain myself.

Anyway, when a gambler wins that doesn't make them to completely stop. Instead, it only became a reason for them to continue playing since they're confident the same luck will hit again, not knowing the opposite is possible to happen. On the other side, for a gamblers who can't control themselves, a losing experience can only trigger them to chase their losses hoping to recover it. Thus, it depends on what type of gambler you are.

[Negotiation]

You need to have a limit when gambling and don't always have to depend on when your deposit is exhausted. It's quite easy to continue playing when you are on a winning streak but there's one thing in gambling and that is when you don't have a limit to your gambling and rather to choose to continue especially when you are winning, the next thing you'd know is the funds have depleted and can't give good account of how the money was spent.

As an individual who gambles, setting limits is very important, but not everyone would take this seriously and that's why most of them end up making mistakes thereby overspending money they didn't even budget for gambling. Sometimes what cause them to over spend is when they chase their lose, initially they might decide to spend just some few dollars but then when they lose and keep chasing loses at the end of the day they've spent more money they didn't budget for.

 Therefore, i'll recommend that the best time to quit is after you've win or lose a bet and not even when you've exceeded your limits, because an individuals limit for the day might be 100-$1000 and you never can tell how unfortunate they could in having streaks of loses so if they've had like 5-6 loses and haven't exceeded their limits I don't expect them to continue but rather quit for the day.

Not setting limits on gambling can put you at greater risk that's why it's good to set the time frame for gambling. Decide in advance whether you'll commit to 30 minutes an hour or a specific time frame. Financial Limits Always work within your means if you've set aside $50 for gambling be firm about not going over that amount. Determine how often you gamble maybe it's once a week bi weekly or once a month.

They can playing gambling on holidays or on a schedule but they must controls their gambling activity to avoids a big lose. If they can maintain their gambling activity properly, they will not have to worry with the addiction and can playing gambling any time they wants. Yes, it's important to understand how to treat gambling as a fun thing so they will knows when they must draw the line and not just playing gambling like other people. Moderation will be the key to a healthy gambling attitude and that's why a gambler must learn about many things while they playing gambling to avoids the problems.

If they knows when they can playing gambling and when they should avoids gambling, they will manage their time without a problem. They will knows that gambling is just part of the fun so they will not just playing gambling every time they have a free time. They consider to do the other activities because they needs to balance their lives and not just used their free time to playing gambling.

[Strongkored]

Just for discussions and ways to educate or share knowledge with ourselves when and how to draw the line when gambling,  because for some reasons, some gamblers have arrived at unstable realities because of the lack of stoppage time while gambling so let's talk.
When do you stop?

Gamblers must have experienced something called stopping because they lost, stopping because they had won a lot or even stopping because they were bored, so even though players try to create the same pattern, for example stopping when they have won or stopping because they have lost in a row, they have also done things that are not following the pattern what they usually do.
I'm like that, I don't always stop when I lose or stop when I win because players often follow their feelings, the feeling of being lucky will continue to make them continue playing or even though they are winning but when they feel bored they will stop, so feelings really influence the player's decisions, but It's better to stop when we have reached our limit, the time limit we have set or also the budget limit.

The experience you have had is very good and this needs to be emulated by all gamblers so that they do not experience very bad things due to wrong actions.

By knowing when we will stop, it will prevent us from becoming addicted gamblers because we can stop at any time and not worry about the outcome, whether winning or losing because that is a common thing that happens in gambling. Waiting for us to win gambling and then stop will only be a bigger waste of time and money because we don't know what will happen in the future and if we have experienced more losses then we will regret it and decide to stop. The most important thing for us is that we have prepared enough money we can afford to lose it if the money we have prepared runs out, it is better to stop and not try to continue gambling with the aim of covering the loss.

It is better for us to choose a type of gambling game that has less risk, such as sports betting, although it does not rule out the possibility that we will experience losses, but sports gambling is not completely based on luck. We can also analyze it first to get closer to the chance of winning, although sometimes the results can be unpredictable. But sports betting can stop at any time if we only place bets and don't watch the match so we can determine when our time line is to stop gambling.

[tottong]

Control is everything when it comes to gambling, if you lack control and patience, you will barely be able to gamble responsibly because you won't be able to stop whether you are winning or losing. You will think you can recover your losses when you are losing and you will think you can win more when you are winning and it's all because you are mentally weak and have no control over your emotions and your emotions are driving you to do things that you shouldn't.

If we are not able to control it, it means we will become more addicted and will gamble at a different level.
For people who are addicted, it will be a little more difficult to stop, whether they are losing or experiencing luck. Because the desire to continue in the hope of getting a big win will be much stronger.
The lack of control also affects emotions and this kind of gambler will usually be much more difficult to advise. Controlling emotions in gambling is the same as controlling ourselves and if we fail then everything will be much more complicated.

what an honest answer here mate and correct that we must stop gambling when our capital already
gone and do not attempt to take another amount continuing your losses because for sure you will get a
good return as luck seems to be not on your side that time.

Anyway, when a gambler wins that doesn't make them to completely stop. Instead, it only became a reason for them to continue playing since they're confident the same luck will hit again, not knowing the opposite is possible to happen. On the other side, for a gamblers who can't control themselves, a losing experience can only trigger them to chase their losses hoping to recover it. Thus, it depends on what type of gambler you are.

another correct , most gamblers stayed because of their winning moment not knowing that this has
limitation and once luck leaves their side for sure losing is what follows so know when to stop for better
gambling activities.

Anticipation is very good, by having money saved when we lose we don't feel confused and regret the incident because the money we used in betting is voluntary money, that is, when we lose we are still fine and if we win then just think of it as a bonus. to top up your savings balance again.

Yes, you are right, we have to be selective in choosing the type of gambling game that we will play because if we take the wrong action then we will have new problems in our life, yes, by choosing a type of gambling game that will only cause a little harm, it will not be problem and really agree with you that this type of sports betting only carries relatively small risks.

Determine how often you gamble maybe it's once a week bi weekly or once a month.

Setting your own bar on how long you want to gamble or how much money you want to gamble is a good method to control your gambling related spending. There are people who are struggling to keep this going because it takes self-discipline and composed state to execute and gamblers lack these habits, reason why they became addicted in the first place.

But once they start doing it they will be able to overcome their addiction and eventually reduce the budget and end up with being able to save their savings.

The nature of gambling is such that it makes you play more by infusing the competitive spirit in you. The way to conquer this is to understand that your battle is not with the casino but with yourself.

How would one conclude within him that he's battling himself? That wouldn't be a battle. Generally, everyone feels the need to get, by force, the losses incurred in gambling. Although the self control sets in the moment a player have experienced the downside of such habit and decides to control it. Most players get swept off to the floor for not realizing the poor gambling habit they exhibit. Which ends up landing them to a financial trouble. Setting up an effective strategy helps the player to draw the line when he should.

The issue is not knowing when to take action. That's why players are being told of preparations. Since gambling is seen, by majority, as a competition, nobody goes for a such events without training or preparations. But most players think making money out of the game is the sole aim and nothing else should be acknowledge. Limitations and self control two strong factors that helps in preventing losing streaks, are being neglected, by new players, at a speed of light. It sounds unfamiliar, that's not what there were told, initially, of gambling. Not knowing how deep and exhausting gaming can become, leads to the damage of self control in most gamblers.

[Dewi Aries]

Control is everything when it comes to gambling, if you lack control and patience, you will barely be able to gamble responsibly because you won't be able to stop whether you are winning or losing. You will think you can recover your losses when you are losing and you will think you can win more when you are winning and it's all because you are mentally weak and have no control over your emotions and your emotions are driving you to do things that you shouldn't.

If we are not able to control it, it means we will become more addicted and will gamble at a different level.
For people who are addicted, it will be a little more difficult to stop, whether they are losing or experiencing luck. Because the desire to continue in the hope of getting a big win will be much stronger.
The lack of control also affects emotions and this kind of gambler will usually be much more difficult to advise. Controlling emotions in gambling is the same as controlling ourselves and if we fail then everything will be much more complicated.

Gambling addiction is always caused because someone is unable to control their gambling activities so that this is what makes them eventually enter the addiction phase, and it is very clear that when someone has entered the addiction phase then they will really find it difficult to stop gambling regardless of the situation, in fact if you have entered this phase then there is very little chance for you to stop, because usually when someone has entered the addiction phase then even if they manage to win but in the end they will still continue because they are unable to ignore the greed that is in them which in the end as we know that greed more often leads someone to significant regret.

So simply put, addiction is a situation where when you win you will be addicted and when you lose you will be even more curious, meaning there is absolutely no point that can make you stop regardless of the situation and conditions. And also addiction is a situation where the person already has a different mindset from normal people in general, they have a high level of confidence and hope in winning so that sometimes they do not hesitate to justify all means such as borrowing money, or stealing money just to gamble and they consider that it is an action that is not a problem to do, even though it clearly has the potential for significant adverse effects.
