When you’re supposed to stop but the sportsbook pulls you back in

[Questat]

The past few days have been rough for me, it's bad run after bad run, and because of that I was actually planning to stop for a while, reflect on what went wrong, and just cut the losses before things got worse. you know ( risk management thing...)

But today, things suddenly changed.

It felt like the sportsbook read my mind. I placed a small parlay, just $6, and somehow it hit and turned that into $300.  Now here I am again, back to grinding since I have funds to play with. The year is ending and I’m still gambling, so hopefully this bankroll lasts longer this time, before I end up giving it all back again.

Just sharing my experience,  Anyone else experienced something like this?

We’ve all lost money but if you placed $6 and won $300 you should be pulling some money out to enjoy. There is no point gambling it all away, that only works for the bookie, not you. Try and have some self control buddy and I mean that in the nicest way.

[Frankolala]

If I was in your shoes, I will still quit and reflect on my gambling activities. You have won $300 that you should withdraw and enjoy your profits sinve it has been in your mind to go on a break. Before you know it, you will still lose the money back to the casino and your entire bankroll because of greed since you believe that if you go on break , you have closed you chance of winning more money.

I hope you don’t lose everything and leave a little to buy drinks. In sports betting, I’ve never experienced it, but for slot games, I once won a pretty nice multiplier after not playing for a week. I actually haven’t decided to play again, but seeing a friend playing slots, I ended up opening an account, which actually still had a balance of about $50. I also played slots with that money and ended the game with a win. But honestly, a situation like that is unlikely to happen again.

I’m good bud, thanks for the advice though. I’m already happy knowing I won’t be adding more money to my bankroll.
I’ll just try to use what I have as efficiently as I can so it lasts longer. Growing it would just be a bonus.  

I’ll be focusing more on single bets from here on. That last parlay was honestly a desperate move, but somehow it miraculously hit, so I’m still here now.

I hope you don’t lose everything and leave a little to buy drinks.

I will just withdraw a little for this.

It is good that you know you can likely lose the money if you use the $300 to continue to gamble.

If I were him, I will withdraw all the money and spend it. That is one of the fun I have while gambling, regardless of the losses I had in the past, although which were small amount of money. You advise is very good.

You should know that casinos are great at dragging players back after much losses, you've got a lucky win, and as you said regarding if it'll last you for a while, try to schedule the session's timing to 3-5 hours a day. Then, the wagering amount should be in few cents, doing $5 - $6 per wager could finish the whole bankroll in 60 spins (in slot), wins may follow, but the bankroll won't endure for more than 2 days, thereby requiring that you deposit more of your own money.

That is the temptation of gambling makes you placing for the next bets. But the best thing you can do after turning that money into $300 is quit and enjoy the money. You can place another bet at other times after you use the win money for yourself.

If you still have that money, you need to quit immediately before you lose it. No guarantee you can win next bet so while you still have the money, it is better to stop gambling.

[mirakal]

If you’re still not satisfied with that $300 win, you could always keep playing. I’m sure you can afford to lose it, that’s part of being a gambler. $300, if managed properly, can actually last you well into next year if you stick to sports betting.

But if you bring that into slots, that’s a different story. You’ll get tempted, and it could be gone in less than 24 hours. Just sharing from experience. Addiction can really destroy everything. Even if you have a plan, once emotions take over, plans become useless. Anyway, I’ll just congratulate you now. In case you end up losing it all again, at least I got to congratulate you first.

I just had the same thing a month ago. I was very low on funds, and my last bet was a parlay. I won like $30, and I got some budget to bet again for the next few days to come, and I lost it all. It's a coincidence, that I am sure. But it's fun to think or feel like they know what is happening to us, and so they let us win. It's not like that, or else all sports are rigged.

Still, I am superstitous on this kind of things, and I believe in the supernatural. It sounds crazy, but when you are at that point, it's really difficult to find a reason why all of a sudden you will win. Just at the brink of the moment.

This is my current gambling stats but with the difference that I’m still stuck at lose because I’m already done gambling this year for the sake of enjoying my holiday without further loses.

You shouldn’t grind again rather just secure profit since there’s a high chance that you will lose it all again the same way you keep experiencing loses frequently in the past.

Just use the profit on your new year celebration and have fun with fam.

He is only lucky, the gambling sites does not know how to drag players back after much losses in this way, some people will lose and continue to lose in a way that all the money will be lost. This has happened to me several times while I am gambling on casinos. Everything is just random but in a way that the casinos will only later be favored.

You've just had luck, it's not a call to play, you've had a losing streak and this risk management point leads you to stop.
You wanted to risk $6 and got lucky, just random, or just guessed the game.
I have often won "without money" with the bonus that the site gave me sometimes 0.5 cent playing a bingo card, sometimes I have won with dog racing when I received the $1 bonus, but trust me it's just a coincidence.

So in the end you win, then keep complaining about you may potentially lose your winning by gamble it again?Keep some in your bankroll, withdraw the rest. You can buy some meal with that funds, and take some rest before you will start to gamble again.
Being so negative is just weakening your mentality.

Definitely total pulling out is best advice for the ops, because if he should analyze himself well, he should know that he has the tendency of greed already, which can be seen with the way he risks, from his current bet, he said he used $6 to accumulate that $300 winnings, which means he must have bet on high accumulative odds which is another risk in itself, and there is high tendency that he is going to exust that $300 in few hands of bet, Act is right, if I where him, I will withdraw the money and make sure a get something good and physical out of that winning amount.

He is not complaining but sharing his opinion probably because this experience still not making him satisfied for unknown reason perhaps he lose more than 300$ current profit so he is still eager to continue despite his previous bad experience.

A typical gambler dilemma while he already have the chance to quit and use the money for something else that will benefit him instead of losing it back to the casino.

Well, that is great. It is really amazing that you managed to turn a $6 bet into $300. I think it is a real New Year gift. Now the most important thing is not to try to increase the bet. I believe that if you continue playing with the same small bets and set a clear limit for yourself, for example no more than $5 per bet, that would be the right approach.

If you divide $300 into such bets, it turns into a huge number of bets. This means you will be able to play for quite a long time. If during this distance you get lucky again with a big win or you have wins with lower odds, it becomes a very solid bankroll that can last for a long time. Personally, in your place, I would probably withdraw half of the money or even around $200 to really feel the taste of this victory. But of course, the decision is up to you.

[stadus]

That’s amazing, especially since it came from a parlay. So I guess all those realizations you had before about taking a break are kind of gone now, right? Looks like you’re starting a new journey again.

With proper discipline, that amount should last longer than expected. Just don’t go too negative either, it’s okay to think about winning, just don’t get greedy. Stick to your plan, especially bankroll management. No more parlays, that one was just a lucky hit and it probably won’t happen again.

congrats op that definitely is a huge win i hope you have treated yourself or your family this holidays with that money and did not just go back to gambling without benefitting at least a little bit from that amount of money if you win again that is a good start to the year

[DaNNy001]

The sports book are not pulling you back in you are the one doing that yourself and that's because you have no discipline..if you made such amount of profit there's a high chance you would still be gambling even though you try not..it only takes discipline to be able to resist the temptations of trying to chase more profits...you can choose not to continue it is all a matter of sticking to the decision you made
