Would you cashout or wait for the game to conclude?

[klidex]

It seems like this topic has been discussed before and if I'm not mistaken, the person who played this bet sold it to his friend for the amount of money that was cashed out and his friend was willing to continue the bet and was successful in winning. Actually, this game is very high risk because if one of the 2 matches that have not been played loses, it will destroy the 16 bets that we have been waiting for to win and that will be very annoying, so if I had the bet, it would be better if I cashed it in rather than having to lose it all, even though the final amount is quite tempting, it is very risky and will make our hearts beat. If it I'm of course pounding hard and will definitely get hot and cold if I wait for the final result

It doesn't matter even if the result is a win, because sometimes betting can be a surprise in the end, so it's better not to take bigger risks, at least the money we bet has won many times over and we also don't try to be greedy. Greed is a bad trait because we cannot be grateful for the results that have become our luck, no matter how many results we have received, so if I was given an opportunity like that, I would rather cash it in than have to test my adrenaline again

 I saw this on the media so I decided to bring it here in the forum for us to discuss about it. If you notice in the first image, the bettor played a very risky game which comprises of 15+ games with a huge fee of 1m naira. Please take note that this post is not to promote risky gambling or mislead people to emulate his strategy cause left for me I think he's lucky if he happens to win this bet. Now back to our main point of discussion which is on the second image, out of 17 games, 15 played with just two left and based on the date in the image I think Austin FC won Los Angeles Galaxy 2-0 making it the last game left, now if you were the bettor and was given a cashout of 12.4m out of 36m to be won would you rather be patient for the last game to conclude or you'll go with the cashout? Also note that if you cashout you are safe atleast you have made 11m plus extra cash and if you decide to wait it's either you lose or win 36m, what would you do?

This is where the term patience is a virtue comes in, you know that? what we need to do is take a risk and wait because there is our possible winning time and if we fall in being greedy and rush, we might lose more instead of making more money, but we don't have to apply patience in everything because sometimes we also need to monitor and decide properly whether to continue gambling or to cash out, we must know the exact time when to stop especially when we see that we are ahead in a gambling session.

I would not let myself affected on that, that ticket will win, you might blame yourself. So as a gambler, we should be aware and strong enough to control our emotion and let the game be over to check if we win or not. Because if we think of cashing out once we see a profit already, then we should not be betting with a parlay, we can just do single bet or 2 leg parlay, easier, then wait for the outcome of either win or loss.

Actually, cashing out for me is a sign of being indsicipline, because when you cash out, you still gamble on the outcome as not everytime you cashout you make the right decision, sometimes you make a wrong one because you are suppose to make bigger win but you cash out.

Hey mate, my question for you is, if you lose the whole 36million or cash out the 12million then find out the bet came through, which would annoy you more? I'm so curious about your reply but if I'm being asked such question, i think I'll be very angry at myself if I lose the whole 36million which is about $26k but then having $10k plus is not a bad idea, it's still something one could hold unto and place another bet later.

 Also, I disagree with your statement about the cashout option being a sign of indiscipline. We all know that gambling is a risky act which requires individuals to predict on a upcoming event of which the outcome would be either they lose or win but then the gambling platform game gamblers an opportunity to take profit before the full event is concluded so why snooze on it. And in the case of that bettor, out of about $26k he was given an opportunity to claim $10k plus tell me why he shouldn't go for it when his stake was far lesser than that amount.

[Porfirii]

I think the same as other colleagues, and I would wait until the end.

The probability to win big when you make the bet is ridiculous (0.00...%) but when you have managed to concatenate several wins and it is only one match left, the probability is more or less 50%. The opportunity cost is very high, and if you need the money you may be tempted to cash out early, but you'll never have such good chances of becoming a millionaire again.

[Perfectbaby]

We have discussed this before. I prefer to wait till the match finish.

The guy that bought this up the last time on this forum would have lost or lost if he did not cash out. The amount to win was huge.

I gamble on just 1 to 3 matches and I do not use cash out for it. But if I accumulate and the cash out is huge in amount, I will cash out. It is not good to be greedy.

What???
If I have such chance to cashout I will do it ASAP without wasting time.
Now this is how it should be done, whenever a gambler stakes with a higher amount and at long run he noticed that he has covered up his staked amount and has some profits join maybe we can say 5x to 10x what more are they waiting for not cashing out immediately?
Nothing much because his gamble amount is out so he should take profits and leave the fucking games to end without regretting.

Deciding correctly in situations like this is important. When you've got enough profit but you want to make more because the money that you're about to win is high but in return what? It will cost you everything if you lose in a split seconds if you want to continue, so, it's the decision of like being in life and death.

If losing what you've won isn't going to cause you a lot of pain and you won't regret it, continue with the last bet. But if you're someone who's too sensitive in bets like this where you've got the sure money to cash out then all you have to do is take a deep sigh and go away with the money.

These are the moments when you can be happy with what you have got rather than be greedy with potential higher winnings but the risk is very high and not tolerable when you can't risk much.

[moneystery]

if he is sure that the next match will be successful, then those matches are worth waiting for, but if he is not sure about the final result of the remaining matches, then just cash out. in particular, it is a risky bet, so the potential for losing the money staked is quite high, so he must be sure that his decision to wait or cash out is the right one or not, lest this makes him regret it and stress him out.

[joeperry]

That was a good bets! I only have done this on my last bankroll and usually my bet is just $1-5  but anyway, personally with my low bet, I will wait for all of it to finish as it is my last resort to increase my bankroll, more of a do or dare situation but if something like 1m Naira, I'm pretty sure that's a big stake for 15 matches and personally I wouldn't finish all the game and go for a secure win rather than risking that 12.4m Naira on those two matches.

But still it depends on the bettor, it's their strategy, maybe he really is a risk taker but I am not that risk taker and would go for a secure win.

[panjul07]

I'm sure there are some other topics with the same discussion like this, which is about a parlay bet that consist of many selections and then we are questioned ourselves what to do when some match selections are settled already and some other matches are still to wait.
Again it depends on ourselves, depends on what is our plan before placing the bet, if we are sure with all the selections, simply let it go till the last match.
If we are not sure, simply do early cash out (all or partially) but I would prefer to do partial cashout so there is still a chance to win the bet although with smaller potential winning after cashout.

[YOSHIE]

Also note that if you cashout you are safe atleast you have made 11m plus extra cash and if you decide to wait it's either you lose or win 36m, what would you do?

Gambling strategies using the bidding and trapping method are common strategies used by gamblers or bookies, but you need to know that in gambling cases like this there are two possibilities that will happen.
1. Take safe money and take $$ away.
2. Stick to your initial betting stance and finish the game.

I've often seen people do similar things, what I've seen both happen.
But for me and I personally remain committed to my stance and I will finish the game, winning is lucky for me and losing means I'm not lucky, the point is I still finish the game.

I thought it is your real game. All is well. This is a good cash out because using 1,000.000 to win 36+ millions naira and the cash out is 12+millions then I don't have to hesitate to withdraw the money because this where the second 50/50 because before you placed your prediction it is already 50/50 and now that you have a a cash out of 12+millions naira and if you want to wait for it then it is 50/50.  So if I am the one, I will Cash out because I lose nothing instead I gain more. The Best option is the person is not the greedy type then he should Cash out.

[Jawhead999]

I always tell to my myself, whenever I bet parlays, I won't cashout regardless what the situation is because when I select the match I want to bet, I bet carefully on the match that I'm confident to bet. For me, there's no point to cashout before all the match ended, if I'm not sure wit the match, I won't bet.

Perhaps you think it's really risky since you the multipliers are really high, that's why I didn't bet into so many matches.

Actually, there is another way besides cashout if we look at the screenshot above, because we can still place a counter bet against the bets on the remaining 2 matches.
If I were in that position, I definitely wouldnt cash out because with the right calculations and strategy, we could win around 5M to 30M depending on the results of the last 2 matches.

And regret quitting early for the rest of his life if the game ended as he expected in the first place? I don't think the answer is as clear as black or white: if earning X profits was his initial plan, then it is right, but if his plan was to wait till the end, improvising is not a good idea to me.

In fact, I don't think improvising is ever a good idea when it comes to gambling. Better stick to the plan you objectively prepared in advance instead.

Whether you cash out in an instant or choose to finish the game, that's on you; eitherway would be fine as long as it favors you. What matters at the end of the day is earning rofit from every bet as much as possible. You may do either of these two but just keep in mind to avoid being regretful no matter what the outcome of your action is. Personally, it depends. If I'm up already and finishing the game will not create a damage on my bankroll then I'd probably just let things be. However, if I am chasing profit then settling for an amount would be my decision. Greed is something a gambler should not acquire. Be mindful of the logic behind gambling; you bet more, you lose more. Securing profit is the best thing to do here in general perspective; no one's certain of any gambling game outcome; you could be winning halftime but may still lose at the end of the game.

[Hatchy]

I've come across this same image before on the forum. I really can't remember my reply back then but I know that some Gamblers would really not be ready to cash out this kind of game even if they are at the edge of the table. Greed will take it's place as usual because they will want to hit the jackpot but unfortunately loss everything. For me, I might cash out because it depends on the experience I actually have with sport betting. If the gambler has good experience and places a good bet he might be confident enough to wait a bit. But if he doesn't and trys being greedy, he will end up losing.

Yes any one would get remorseful if the last two games played, it's normal for we as humans to get emotional when we think we've made the wrong decision, but hope you're fully aware that you will get more remorseful and feel the guilt for the rest of your life if the last two bet does not come out good. If you cash out, at least you still got about 12m to hold unto rather than having nothing. Well you might be a wealthy person and losing everything might not bother you, maybe you've got more to spend on gambling, but imagine an average person who decided to take such risk with a million Naira and missed out on the opportunity of cashing out. I bet such person might never forgive themselves for that decision.

Will always depend on the gambler if be want’s to risk more or already happy with some profit.
I will definitely cash out on this one as I don’t want to be more greedy and I don’t want to lose more opportunities. Sports betting are tempting especially if you are on a hype and believe that more good things will happen, it’s just a matter of time for you before you actually realize the purpose of taking and securing profit.

Actually with these kind of conditions then this is where you would really be having that kind of struggle when it comes to choosing whether you should be cashing out or not specially if there's an early cashout
on where seeing those numbers or potential win then it would really be just that too tempting i should say and i've been through tons of similar conditions on which some of those bets ending up on early pull out of profits and there are times that i do get all in and waited up for the game to finish but of course speaking about 15 game 17 game parlay then i would say that it is really just that something that you will be needing that extreme luck for you to be able to hit up that huge winning considering on how long this series of games that you had put out.

[AliMan]

The decision is yours to have, good thing that you still think of cashing out rather than staying with the game. You won't know exactly what's the future of placing continuous bet along the way, because gambling is somehow hypnotic. Everytime you gain good wins, our mind definitely crave for more money to acquire and that's really the huge problem of every gambler.
Don't stay any longer, choose to stop quickly once profit will surely come at your balance and this exactly makes you happy once you enjoy that profitable wins.
