The profit has reached 100% it is good enough but if you want 1000% it is too ambitious of course some people will have different perceptions even in serious gambling 1000% is the target of most people.

If you are a disciplined gambler then 100% of the profit is worth taking the rest of it bet again.

The point is that I always want to secure the initial capital first and not withdraw all the balance won, meaning that when the profit achieved is not the target there is still a little profit that is safe so that there are no regrets later.

It is best to have more, but I understand the risk of gambling, as when we want more winnings, the losses come. That is why I help myself to feel contentment in small amounts rather than chasing for more. In fact, hitting the jackpot is already a bonus, and I think that gaining at least 50% is huge enough to take home and make me happy.

The word happy can be described differently depending on our expectations. If we expect too much from our money when gambling, making it double or triple will fill it. But if we are just making ourselves entertained, even if we lose, we are still happy, as our goal is to just gamble and please ourselves.

In my case it depends on the money at stake and the risk of the bet. I can assume extremely difficult probabilities in lotteries, for example, where it is almost impossible to win, but you lose a few bucks at worst. Doubling my 1€ bet or getting drawback is a clear failure in lotteries.

In other games where you risk much money and better probabilities, doubling could be a realistic goal, and a good moment to stop playing. But as others said, we tend to become greedy when we win, so it is easier said than done.

Actually, I always expect big profits with a 100% return unfortunately to get a nominal profit of that size is very difficult for me 50% is enough the most important thing is I do not experience a loss of up to 100% in an example for example I deposit 50$ if I can double it to 80$ I stop at that time because it has exceeded half of my capital if I continue sometimes it even goes back to 50$ meaning I don't get any profit if I want more.
Honestly regarding target profit I do not really determine victory because luck in gambling does not always match expectations.

I am interested to know your personal perspective and experience as well. I understand that as gamblers, we have different financial statuses in life. Some gamble for fun, while others are very serious about it. Can you relate to the question and answer it? How realistic is your target profit when gambling? Are you already happy with a 100% return, or do you want a 1000% return? Please use figures in your explanation so we can understand it better.

Part of being a gambler is its greediness. Gamblers suffer a lot of losses, and when there's an opportunity to recover those losses, they take it. I have been in this situation many times, and I'm sure many of us have been, too.

There's a saying strike while the iron is hot and it's so true in gambling, gamblers will not satisfied with 100% return they will want more, It is tricky for gamblers to stop while they are on profit, some gamblers will call it a day and some gamblers are stubborn to extend their luck, I was once stubborn but I learn through experience to be satisfied and call it a day when I sense that my luck is not extending anymore.

There's no need "we need to understand it better" because it's a personal preference.

If I choose to gamble 5% of my monthly income, but you choose to gamble 20% of your monthly income, it's fine.
If I choose to end my gambling session after reach 100% of my bankroll, but you choose 1000%, it's fine.
If I choose to gamble on sports, but you choose to gamble on slots, it's fine.

Anything is fine as long as you're not get addicted and you didn't harm other people, we're happy with our own choice, so why it matters?

If there is a chance of getting more, then I will be happy to grab it with less risk, but for the most part, I'm okay with the kind of profit I get with the little I gamble with.
 
Let's say, for instance, that I make a deposit of $100 into my casino budget account, which is what I expect to gamble with for the rest of the week or probably my monthly budget.

If I can turn that $100 into $150 alone, it's very much okay with me as I don't go for too much, and sometimes I don't even account for any good profit, so the 100% self is a big target for me. Talk more about expecting a 100%.

Considering Gambling for fun alone realistically is very hard to apply due to the money involved. It’s very hard to stay at fun level if you are losing.

X2 profit is always my baseline profit whenever I’m gambling since it’s the closest and typical target of most gambler. But this target depends on the size of my bankroll, the bigger the bankroll is the lower target percentage is my goal.

I’m happy already with 100% return but ofc everyone will be much happier for 1000% return assuming it’s possible so why not?
