If you have a lot of money that can be used to place a bet on but sometimes those are not being hooked up by playing or gambling not because they are winned but because they are also being defeated too. They wanted to get their money back that is why some gamblers were used to stay in a game for an hour or for how many hour. Playing in a small amount or in a big amount was same risk but it only differ if the gambler has a self control.
All depends from how the player/gambler do manage his stays. If the gambler knows how to control himself the chance of recovering his losses is far better than those who don't have this attitude.
If you are aggressive the chance of losing more is very high, not thinking of the possible risk and just after with quick recovery leads this gambler to lose more and to the point of busting everything he have.
Better to take a break and plan more deeper instead of repeating the same mistake over and over and leave everything in regret once you lose everything that you have inside your savings account.
