So, here putting out the same question, what will make you quit gambling forever? A win or a loss, or both?
I won't quit gambling no matter if I win or lose, I'm someone who gambles for fun and I never take it serious. I gamble when I wanted to gamble and there's no craving for gambling that exists in me.

I take gambling as a way to entertain my days and that's it, and if ever I win around $100k or more in gambling then I would never ever give up on it. However, if I lose $100k in gambling then surely I'll think about quitting it but I'm not sure if that's going to be a good decision or not.

Your friend is correct. It is unlikely to stop gambling when you win a big prize. Even if you understands that stopping is the best option, you may return again someday. It must be a temporary stop only. When you have spent all the prize, I'm sure you will return to gambling again. If you really want to stop, you need a stronger reason.  Grin

Anyway, why you choose an option of gambling? Don't you think to trade crypto coins? This is also a fast way to earn money. It is more secure than gambling if you choose spot trading. However, it requires a lot of money if you want to get huge profits. But the safe thing is that you won't be addicted to gambling if you choose trading.
People are different in life. As some people will not stop gambling after winning huge amount, some people will stop and not gamble again if they do not want to gamble again. While some people will continue to gamble moderately without wasting too much money. So it is possible someone can stop gambling after winning huge amount of money.

For gambling addicts, there is no good reason to stop gambling unless they are convinced that they have completely ruined their lives to the point that it is impossible to restore them. Therefore, I will answer the question on the subject from a purely personal point of view.
You mean an addicted person will not accept he is addicted to gambling unless he is convinced to truly see what is actually happening? That is true.

For gambling addicts, there is no good reason to stop gambling unless they are convinced that they have completely ruined their lives to the point that it is impossible to restore them. Therefore, I will answer the question on the subject from a purely personal point of view.

I am not a gambling addict and since the beginning of my experience I have learned to play responsibly and carefully because I have a previous experience with alcohol addiction. Therefore, I rule out that there are compelling reasons that could push me to stop betting for fun.

The only scenario that comes to my mind now is that I win a huge sum of money that can change my life. At that moment, I do not expect that I will find time to spend more time gambling even for short-term fun and I will most likely bet on investments in various projects, including investments in the gambling industry.

So, I was sitting side to side wit a good friend of mine this evening while having a chat about making money, we talked about several ways we can make a lot of money in the most possible short time, in the midst of the options we both came of up, I brought up the option of gambling, suggesting it to him as one of the most easiest and fastest way to also make money if and when one is lucky, he agreed it's a good option but complained about the possibilities of betting addicted, and as a result, losing back all the money after winning it, then I told him that if I won like $100,000 from gambling, I did quit gambling forever, he laughed and screamed impossible, he said that the more money one makes from gambling, the more they get hooked, we argued about this until we both decided it was time to go home and rest.

both but it highly depends on the situation, I mean, people have different views when it comes to gambling, some see it as a way to earn money some see it as a way to have entertainment, I for one, see gambling as a way to entertain my self but I still do want to win, anyway, I don't think I'll quit gambling permanently just because I won a lot of money from it, I know to myself that I can stop if I want to and as for losing, I only gamble what I can afford to lose and if in some way I just started gambling money I can't afford to lose and I realize it, I'd know that it would better to stop/quit gambling so I could spare myself from a lot of trouble if I don't stop.

Hi ladies and gents of the forum's gambling discussion board, coming through with this question born out of an argument I just had with a good friend of mine a few minutes ago.

So, I was sitting side to side wit a good friend of mine this evening while having a chat about making money, we talked about several ways we can make a lot of money in the most possible short time, in the midst of the options we both came of up, I brought up the option of gambling, suggesting it to him as one of the most easiest and fastest way to also make money if and when one is lucky, he agreed it's a good option but complained about the possibilities of betting addicted, and as a result, losing back all the money after winning it, then I told him that if I won like $100,000 from gambling, I did quit gambling forever, he laughed and screamed impossible, he said that the more money one makes from gambling, the more they get hooked, we argued about this until we both decided it was time to go home and rest.

But then on betting home, I thought within myself if I can actually quit gambling for ever if I won a $100,000 like I said, and I concluded I can, if not for anything, atleast, for the fear of losing back all of that money to the casino.

So, here putting out the same question, what will make you quit gambling forever? A win or a loss, or both?
I have thought about this before, and for me it’s less about a specific win or loss that would make me quit, because I always risk a small amount of money. So for me it’s more about the feeling I get when I gamble. I have told myself I would only stop gambling if I won big too, but the real moment I would quit for good is when it stops being exciting or fun, as long as winning a significant amount, will allow you to enjoy some games with much lower amount.

If I ever sit down to gamble and don’t feel that rush or thrill anymore, that’s when I will walk away. Once the excitement is gone forever what’s the point, right? It’s not really about the money in my opinion, it’s more about how it makes me feel. If it ever turns into just another thing I do without that same buzz feeling, I will be out forever or at least until I feel something back again.

If you are gambling for money, you will easily be able to decide stop gambling when you win a big sum. You may also stop gambling with a very huge loss. But when you are a gambler who is gambling for fun, it will be another reason, something apart from a win or loss that will stop them and make them quit.
If you gamble for fun also and you win big It is possible that you change your fun activity to something else because you can now afford more.

I am most likely to quit gambling for ever if I have a loss that affected my life greatly. It will only take me one day to make that decision and I'll stick to it like my life depends on it. Wins are very sweet and addictive, it is not easy for someone who has won before to easily turn his back from gambling, he will be tempted to do more. After all, he won before and he can win again. This is why gamblers who gambled for the first time and won immediately often get into gambling problems soon after their first wins. They are always tempted to go for more and it is quite difficult to say no.

As for me, I'll be saying no to anything that made my life miserable. Once gambling takes me to that point where I have to weep bitterly for my loss, I am quitting for ever.

For me, quitting would probably come more from the losses than the wins. Losing always feels like a harsh reminder of the risks involved, and it’s those moments that make me think seriously about walking away for good. A big win might give me the confidence to quit, but I feel like the real challenge is not letting the thrill pull you back in. It’s easy to say you’ll stop after a big score, but I’ve seen too many people chase that next high.

At the end of the day, I think quitting for good would have to come from both, a significant win to walk away with something substantial and a few tough losses to remind me that luck runs out.

I can only keep gambling when I feel I'm continously getting addicted to it and its causingmore harm to those around me. Though I may likely return to it again but if I noticed that there haven't been any positive changes on my addiction I might be tempted to take a break again.

While in the aspect of losing, I think I will take a break and then come back again, with a better mindset and strategy.

While if I win big, I don't see any reason stopping rather invest the money and then used only 1% or little higher but not up to 10% of the profit for gambling.

I have many reasons for stopping myself from gambling, the most important one being that I don't want gambling to affect others in my family. Moreover, no one takes a gambler well socially, i.e. people do not want to treat him well and no one wants to mix well with him in various social rituals. No one wants to have a relationship with him and there are always disagreements and quarrels between their family members. Gambling impoverishes a family economically so the impact of this impoverishment on the members of a family can be very negative. So due to the multiple negative impact of gambling, I will take the decision to stop myself from gambling forever.

A win or a loss, or both?

Knowing myself a loss of more likely to make me give up on gambling forever and making me realize it is an endless chase for money I will probably never get back from the casino. Wins make people to think they have broken the system in their favor and they have managed to beat the house (even in the long term), which ends up with losses and the money goes back to where it came from: the house/casino.

There are several circumstances which could make me quit gambling and some of them would not have anything to do with getting a good win or a bad loss from a session. Trying to get a better job, use spare time to exercise or even spending more time with my family are those little things of life I would probably be willing to focus more in and stop getting my sessions as often as I usually do. It depends on the life of each one of us and our personal choices.
Some people may be able to quit gambling after winning one hundred thousand dollars, while others would just deep more into addiction.

None of the above would make ms quit gambling because I am still enjoying the fun. If you win big and feel that you will lose it back to the casino, it is good that you quit after winning big. However, if you are a discipline gambler who understands that gambling is not for profit and have self control, he can still continue gambling.

Quiting gambling is easy said than done and only few gamblers will quit gambling after a huge win because majority of gamblers are gambling for profits, and big win will trigger their greed in them

I have not thought about quitting gambling forever because I try so hard never to gamble with what I cannot afford to lose. So despite the fact that I lose sometimes, the loses are so insignificant that they will never make me think about quitting gambling. I think that the people that will see leaving gambling as an option are those that see gambling as a shortcut to wealth, hence they gambling without control and within proper risk management. There is never a time that someone who use the right risk management will be bothered about losses because even if they come, he will recover the funds and will be able to also withstand the losses.

I wouldn't quit gambling because I hit a mega win, I'd quit gambling because everything that has a beginning, must have an end.
There's a certain stage you get in life and, all you gotta do is sit back and enjoy retirement - with not much memories left in your brain... What would I be doing, standing by a slot machine? Sounds really frustrating!

This is just my own opinion. I have been addicted to gambling before for five years. I quite gambling and start gambling again. I know the cause of gambling addiction and I know what not to do.
well then I guess you haven't been able to overcome your addiction... You did quit for some number of years just like you said but, YOU don't wanna talk about this right now I guess.
[...] he laughed and screamed impossible, he said that the more money one makes from gambling, the more they get hooked, we argued about this until we both decided it was time to go home and rest.
But then, the ideology of not being able to QUIT, sugarcoating that with the usual "the more you win, the more you play" type of shit is just a way to undermine the power of subconsciousness.

Quit gambling forever if you're compulsive, if you've fallen low before, if you at times can't control yourself.

Honestly if you're in a bad mood or bad situation gambling is not a good or meaningful escape. Some people can control themselves at their worse, but others can't. You should be the judge. Or if you don't want to find out be proactive and quit already from now proactively.

I've been saying to some good friends also, that gambling isn't worth it if you're poor. The few money you can put aside would give you much more value if you bought some more ingredients for a healthy meal, some comfort food, some entertainment or something proven to make you feel better... Even with the off chance of winning one time in gambling, it wouldn't save an already poor person from poverty unless they win a mega lottery or something.

Actually there can be many reasons to stop. If you can't find one, I don't think you have to worry about it.

It is easier said than done always
This is just my own opinion. I have been addicted to gambling before for five years. I quite gambling and start gambling again. I know the cause of gambling addiction and I know what not to do. I am not just someone that will just win such an amount but I am a kind of person that know the reason not to gamble with the money. I gamble not frequently and I do not think of gambling as a way of making money which will be the reason I will not waste money on gambling. There are businesses that will help you make money.

If you've been in gambling many times, for sure, you have experience losses in this addictive activity. And at some point, you will tell to yourself that you won't gamble anymore. However, you will dip your hands again on this. It may be easy to say, but the execution is always the hardest part. The temptation will always be there especially if you have idle times and you are looking for something to pass the time.

If I win $100000, I can not quit gambling. I will not use 5% of the weekly income from the $100000 to gamble. I will not gamble that week. I will start a business from the money. My earning will increase. This will make me permanently not go for 5% weekly income on gambling anymore but I will be using less than 1% instead. I will use my less than 1% that I earn weekly to gamble and the money will not be from the $100000 but from the profit it yields.
It is easier said than done always, and from you statement it sounds so easy to control the urge to increase your gambling budget but from the reality experienced over the year with practical practice, quiting gambling or mentaining the same low level gambling budget when one have won big amount is somewhat very hard though come by and almost 97% of gamblers who have truly experienced such amount of winning will still ever Mentain they old budgeting.

Winning a huge fortune from gambling am not sure I am going to either quit m or spend it recklessly that the money would now have to go back to the house. The only way the latter could perhaps happen is when the gambler was already a chronic or a compulsive gambler before hitting such amount of money. So personally I'll continue enjoying my gambling not making any significant changes to my usual gambling routine or staking amounts, and not failing to invest 90% of that money into other businesses.
