I have witnessed a lot of gamblers complaining how they were almost lucky after placing a bet because they had a cash out option but would rather wait for the last match to be green, to no avail, and they would be left hanging at the end of the day, with lost funds and emotional stress.
I always advice them to cash out early with the last match pending, because if they cash out on time, there would be a better chance of staking another match/matches with a better potential to win big rather than loss so much more.
Although to cash out early isn't always a welcomed idea for many, still, it is a wiser choice that measures up to qualify as a responsible decision that would enable one properly manage gambling risk, maintain sound mind and emotional balance as well as financial stability to some degree.
*Do you think to cash out early really helps mitigate the risk of losing much or chasing losses ?
*Is the cash out option availability a number one requirement for you when joining a new gambling site ?
I think the best known casinos sometimes have a cash out option and sometimes they don't, but if we look at the various situations where it could make sense, I think it's about the number of games you have played and how much you would lose if the last bet goes wrong. I think what makes a lot of sense when there is a lot on the line because a multi bet with maybe four or five games, watch the last one and decide how it goes. The way the game goes has the most impact on my decision. If you see that the team that is supposed win such that you win your multi bet is under pressure heavily, maybe taking out the bet via the cash out option is the way to go. If the game is on the fence, then either take it as a lottery ticket from there on depending how much more the payout would be, but if it goes well and only a lucky punch could destroy your bet slip, then either take the thrill or cash out. But the dynamic of the game, if you can follow it, is the most important indicator for me.
Now if you play one of these mega crazy multi bets and you are at 8/9 correct answers already, I don't know. Maybe it is important to consider how much you have staked as that contributes a lot to the multiplier. If you can like 10x your money and you bet with $5, then maybe it is ok to take take the risk than if you do it with $50.
But I am not a friend of huge multi bets anyway. Of course if you hit it, then it is fun but I think in most of these multi bets that have more like maybe five to six games on them, most people don't play with too large amounts.
