We don't know his life story. Maybe he finally decided to quit gambling because before that, he already lost a lot of money due to gambling. But yes, very rare that a gambler will totally quit their gambling activities after winning huge amount of money. Most of them will go back and try to duplicate their luck. But luck in gambling is very hard and rare.

If he can quit gambling after he wins a huge amount of money, then that will be the biggest winning for him because he can use that money for his life, and he can buy anything he wants while he can also saving that money for his future. I think it is reasonable to see someone quit their gambling activities because they don't want to ruin their life after they win big money.

But if that person comes back and tries to search for another big winning, I don't think that will easy for him because his biggest lucky already comes to him, and it is difficult to have another biggest lucky in the other days. His decision to quit gambling is the perfect decision for him while he has a chance to do that.

I admire him for quitting gambling after winning a lot of money.

Some people will still continue gambling and spend all of those huge pots until their last paper. This should serve as a lesson for some people that are always being greedy. Now, due to his act, he can now build a business or make his own small casino house. It's rare for a gambler to quit after gaining a lot that will change his lives 'cause some thought of trying to bet again hoping for another pot.

Omicron is another FUD
snip..
this man really makes me very jealous.. can win very big and then stop is not easy, it requires great strength because the attraction to return to gamble is very large..

When he says Quitting about gambling?this is one good thing to prove he can control himself and good example how gamblers must behave.
to be honest, I am skeptical about this..  the media that preach him does not follow him always (for 24 hours) so we will not know what he will do next (he might return gambling by creating a new ID), the all possibility is always there..

I read a few days ago about the Euromillions dude who won 58million and his account is flooded with hot girls trying to get his attention.

Like you said, convert 400 GBP to Asian money and he's powerful. Deposit for house? He can buy 2 or 3 houses paid in full with the same deposit here next to a beach and nice view. How lucky!

Gambling and quitting after winning is one of the most common things happen in the world of gambling those are the players who secured their lives and take a break for a while. If you are highly skilled in gambling and you want to make more money it better to always play a lot of games. In gambling, there are only two-person first is the person who just making play safe to all of the things he does like just simple and small amount of profit is just enough or even a huge profit in just a single game is enough and after that, you will stop for a while for making gambling to take a break and rest and taste the winnings you earn. Next is the person becomes too much greedy in money most of them are the risky takers even they already got a profit they want to have more because they have a specific goal to make earnings most of the time they play a lot of games to reach their quota or sometimes they just stop when they feel tired.

I kind of feel that he will not gamble again. The reason why I feel is the larger is the bankroll, the more a person wants to gamble. And if someone really wants to gamble again even in imagination, he starts to spend quickly but in small amounts so that he will have a larger bankroll while he will gamble. However, he is already buying so much so quickly and spending off the money fast investing in assets, that might mean he doesn't want to have any funds in hand to gamble away. That is nice. But but, we can never really say since the gambling addiction and temptation can kick in any time!

That was a big amount of winning, I wish you will be able to help some people who has been experiencing so bad right now due to the enhance lockdown that was the government doing. Anyway, it is a wise decision that you have been to quit or go out once you have been gain or won a very huge amount of pot money. That was one of the very hard to do because when you win you will be able to demonetized to gamble or play more because you have the chance to win more but nice decision bro.
Well, that gonna be optional. Of course, if I won than money, I'll look to help first my family before others. We are in the economic problem and getting money is really hard at this time, saving some of it for the next days could be best as we don't know will we end this pandemic.

And for sure, that person will gamble again as he has probably the courage to gamble knowing himself that he can probably win for the next time. Because as a gambler, they will still be gambling if they have time and money. It gonna be their instinct and that was difficult when it comes to the point that you can't either control ourselves.
With regards to gambling again, I will do that too! I will just use the same amount of money that I usually use when I play. I will not become a high roller just because, I won a lot of money, I will stay low bettor and hoping that I would hit that jackpot again. You can't quit easily in gambling when you win that amount of money, but t's good to just stay low bettor and don't risk your winnings on gambling again.

What a lucky guy just from playing slots, I haven't tried it. I haven't come close to winning that amount, let alone gamble with money in an app. I'm trying to control myself here because I know once I start to play it, I might get hooked and play more.

It’s also pertinent to note that he’s decided not to gamble anymore as he believes to quit while he’s ahead, but something tells me he’s going to gamble again.
It's said in the article that he played roulette a week later and still won. That's awesome.

I think the best way is to be satisfied with what you have won already and stop gambling. I believe there are a lot of people who want to believe that gambling is a ticket to all their problems.

^ Obviously no one wants to hear such a sad story so no one will publicize it. Hit jackpots should be not the goal, not a life purpose, etc., but gamblers should realize that they are just lucky.

House is a special investment most people dream of but never have.
Yeah, buying a house is a wise investment since land is scarce. It's definitely better than a Lambo!

Anyway, I have the feeling that he will gamble again when he runs out of money. This mentality should be avoided.

The big win by salesman shows how it is easy to change the life in a second, the lucky guys always start the game 1-0. I am sure media doesn't publish the guys who lost million in a single night because the bad image of gambling industry is not easy to promote for the obvious reasons.

I have seen the worst cases in my life, some gamblers tried to gamble the full monthly salary after taking it on the physical real casino. One guy even put all the money to the black on the roulette table, he lost and go crazy. I have never read such cases on media, media is not honest, unfortunately.

I do not agree with you OP. I would agree if he spent the money instantly on parties, but he put down a house deposit, and then spent the rest on his family for a reward (which is good to me). This means he put away his winnings,,, not throw it away.

I would have put all the money to buy the house in cash though, unless he has a job that pays salary (salesman is on commission).

Securing some house and lot would be the best idea you can do before that money runs out. You see, money runs out really quickly if you don't spend it into something useful. If I have been given the opportunity to get that huge of money, I would have buy a house and lot to secure my future and keep some for the business later, just as simple as that. we don't need to buy everything especially things that we don't really need at all.

Live simply and you will be more at peace with your life. We don't need a lot of material things to survive. If you can secure the basic necessities to live, I guess that's more than enough. And if you can build a small business to start with, then that's already a big bonus so you know that you will have a source of income later on.

Money runs out quickly for me even though I only spend it on something useful! OK except for my gambling, but normally I spend just as much on outside entertainment so my gambling budget is as small as 3 or 4 dinners plus movies outside for a month.

But yes,,, I got your point and that is what I am saying, I do not agree with OP that what the winner did was throwing money away. House is a special investment most people dream of but never have.

The window and door salesman has already spent £50,000 on a house deposit, as well as presents for himself and his family including his daughters aged eight and three. A holiday is also on the cards.

But Josh is now giving up online gambling. He said: “I feel I’ve had my luck and I’ve done really well. If I carried on I’d jinx it.”

Based on this sentence he is a not a believer in the saying strike while the iron is hot, it's not easy to give up after a win some people are compelled to continue because they think they are still have that luck or they think they have to give back even a small percentage, you can call this guy a responsible gambler for doing that.

I don't know if you have met someone in real life who won big. But I would say that this is the obvious thing to do first, shower your family with gifts like house and everything. But the thing is that most gamblers who have seen and experience this has some kind of itch to scratch up.

So I would say that there is a 50% that this kind of people, who suddenly have a lot of money because of gambling might turn into a habitual or even worst addicts in the future, just saying. Unless he is really surrounded with people that will give his good advise and not just people who want to take advantage and have some money from this guy.

Can we really confirm that he really won that amount of money in gambling? I mean he might be one of those gamblers that said they won but actually they are not in the long run. This might be a beginner's luck or not but still, that is a huge amount of money to win as a beginner. I just hope he is a man of his word and focuses on his 2 siblings.

Buying a house and lot after winning that huge amount of money but if... if I will be winning that kind of amount, I will be using a different approach on it.

I will use a big portion of it to buy house and lot and some will be put into different investments (like stocks and crypto etc.) and some will be put into business. In that case, I will be using my winnings to grow it again for the future. Having huge money doesn't mean that you need to buy what you want already. You need to manage it too if you don't want to end up broke again.

If he really quit gambling forever and can save his money (spend it profitably) then he is really smart and lucky. Stopping on time and securing your winnings is the most important thing when it comes to really large amounts of money.
I wonder how much money he deposited to win such a jackpot. Apparently he is new to gambling, so the amount was small.
