Topic: Which is easier, to quit when winning or to quit when losing? - page 4. (Read 2303 times)
For me, it's easier to quit when I'm winning, especially if I've reached the specific quota I've set for the day. I'll just come back tomorrow. But when I'm losing, even if I've set a quota for losses, I tend to make a deposit right after draining my current bankroll, trying to win it back and reach my target amount. Sometimes, I can control myself and avoid making a deposit again, but most of the time, I can't.
How easy or difficult it is for a gambler to quit gambling depends on how badly they are addicted. If their addiction stage is very severe and has affected their social life, then it will be very difficult for them to stop without significant support from their relatives or family. Medical rehabilitation may be necessary for those who are already heavily addicted, but if the question is just about one session, then it is obviously easy for someone to quit after winning.
Personally, I quit easily when I win. Closing the session and exiting is what I usually do when I win, even if I have to spend 10% to 20% of my winnings before the session closes. Of course it's difficult to quit a session when I still have a balance, but if the balance has run out then I will also quit resignedly.
Good for you then. Personally, I quit easily when I win. Closing the session and exiting is what I usually do when I win, even if I have to spend 10% to 20% of my winnings before the session closes.

That's the best strategy in gambling, exit when you win as long as you hit the minimum mark of withdrawal then go for it and get out. After that, it's how you can resist the urge to deposit back and try again which I think is the hardest part of all.
A gambler who loses though has a different approach, he will keep on depositing until he hits that winning chance and I think this is where addiction mostly starts. The spark of just chasing the losses initially, and then grows to something that cannot be controlled anymore because either we want our money back or we just want our revenge against the gambling site. We must avoid this kind of things to happen as much as possible.

Yes, I agree that quitting is easy on a winning note as compared to losing. If you are a winner in gambling, you can stop for the day and quit the gambling happily. The feeling will be great and you will have a sense of positivity.
On the other hand, if you lose you still have to quit but here the feelings will be totally opposite. You will have to bear the loss and your mood will never be satisfied if you end up losing money, no matter how less is the amount. Usually when a gambler loses, he would never like to quit but he has the urge of playing a bit more so the loses can be recovered.
The hardest thing to quit gambling is when you have won a lot. And this is due to the "the winner's effect". When a gambler wins a significant amount of money, he has a feeling of euphoria and confidence in his abilities. This creates the illusion that luck is on his side and he can keep winning. As a result, the gambler often decides to continue playing, hoping to win even more.
Yes, a big win situation can trigger an increase in dopamine levels in the brain, and that can really trigger an increase in interest and confidence in something they are doing, as you said that it is a side effect that will occur when a gambler wins especially in large amounts.In the end there will be no doubt and worry at all about the possible risks when they are going to make a decision, feeling great, feeling that luck is on their side will continue to push their minds to continue the game in order to win a larger amount, even though there is clearly no guarantee at all at that time, and this is the best idea to bring you down into a significant pit of regret, but on the other hand I might also say that stopping when you are in a losing situation can also be a difficult thing to do, especially when you do not have a good risk acceptance.
When you see that your bankroll has grown significantly, it is psychologically difficult to stop because it is tempting to increase it even more. However, this often leads to the player taking larger risks and potentially losing everything they have won.
But if the gambler loses all his money that he has won, he will stop. But when the gambler has the money, he will start gambling again with a high probability.
Honestly it's much harder to quit while you are winning unless you have an exit plan. When you are winning you usually don't stop because you think "it's my day today" and the winning will continue. When you are losing especially for me, it becomes less fun and I gamble for entertainment. Also if you lose and have no more money to gamble with it's easy to stop, because you have to lol.
You are right because sincerely speaking most people do not care about quitting while winning except they are winning, but it's also important to set limits for one self because if you don't set maximum winning and maximum lose you wouldn't know when you go above your target even though you are losing you would find it very hard to stop because you would see that quitting is minus to your self therefore you must look for alternative to make sure to recover what you had lost.

And for me that is the most difficult thing, because When I play and I have profits but I say that I am reaching my limit and I better quit, even if one is left with the desire to continue playing and basically winning and leaving, because I think that the profits have to be Extended, because I apply that in trading, but the game has other foundations , something that is not fulfilled because everything is based on Chance , therefore each time we play in a casino everything is there for us to give free rein to our luck, and accept the designs of the game.
It is normal if you thinks difficult to do because the tension will be high and we can not let it go especially we are in a winning position. There will be a whisper telling to our minds to keeps gambling and chase more winning.But if you can take a deep breath and thinks clear, you will not trying to play gambling and chase the next winning because you realizes that will be more difficult to do. You will trying to stops gambling and withdraw the money so you will not hassle to avoids the other losses.
We must thinks that stops gambling when winning is the best decision you can take because you can prevents the other losses and you can enjoy your win money.
Winners dont only get money. It is about knowledge of yourself and about self-control. Its about realising that life offers more than just a chase of the next high. Its about mental serenity since you know you have the knowledge to make the proper decision. People, thats life. Making the proper decisions. Decisions that provide you calm and ones that boost your self-esteem.

I know that as gamblers, everyone can relate to this question, as we have surely experienced it in real situations.
Suppose our bankroll is $100 and it has already grown to $500, would you quit or continue? Conversely, if with our bankroll, we are down to $10, would you still continue or save the remaining $10? I used specific amounts to make it easier to discuss this situation. I understand that we all gamble with different amounts based on our income, but consider this as an example. You can mention any amount you want based on your personal experience; it doesn't matter.
You cannot quit gambling when you win more money than you expect from gambling. Because the desire to win in that gambling will make Alana more vulnerable to gambling and more emotional. But when you get into gambling, you will have a bad experience with gambling and you can quit gambling if you want. But if you can quit gambling with profit after winning then you will be a successful person in gambling. Because it is very difficult to get out of gambling with the profit from gambling. So always try to keep yourself in control and if possible cash out those wins to buy physical things that you need and are assets at the same time.

It takes control and balance for one to quit his session and be content with how much he's got left. I quit even if I've got some balance left and come back to it by tomorrow or the next day. Like what you've said, it's easier to quit when I've won as well. The feeling is different when you're about to go away from the casino or from your PC and do something else with a smile because you've won with your bets. Me, I'm not disappointed as long as I've got some wins even it's just a breakeven or with a few percentage of loss. As long as that I can control myself, I can quit anytime I wish to. Because it also depends to our mood, when we win and we feel like no one is ever going to beat us, even a friend or relative of yours tells you to stop, you won't hear them.
Personally I had a set target both when winning or losing I quit, however before I reached that conclusion it took me a while to achieve it,
It's good you where able to set a target and stick to it, not everyone has such trait, it takes discipline to do such because when someone who's benefiting from a particular thing no matter how risky it is, if they don't have self control, they could get carried away by the benefits they're getting from it and gradually become addicts, however the major thing that makes it difficult for people to quit even while they're having much losing streaks is lose chasing, but if someone is not very wealthy enough to afford such habit they could gradually quit. Well in conclusion, it takes discipline for people that fall under such categories whether people with much or less winking streaks to avoid gambling addiction and that's just it.

As we know that we all always say the following also by suggesting to fellow gamblers having the ability to stop at the right time is an ability that is really recommended, because this ability can really make us gamble sufficiently and avoid various unwanted possibilities such as losing money in larger amounts.

i’d take the $500 and go thank you i am not one to keep myself bleeding down to the last cent if i notice my money decreasing and not getting any profit then i would take that as a sign to stop and take my money to put into better things that could potentially give me profit instead
Also gambling with an amount of money that you can afford to lose helps the gambler to quit the game when he has lost the money because he has exhausted his gambling budget for that day but if the gambler is winning, he might continue playing.
And for me that is the most difficult thing, because When I play and I have profits but I say that I am reaching my limit and I better quit, even if one is left with the desire to continue playing and basically winning and leaving, because I think that the profits have to be Extended, because I apply that in trading, but the game has other foundations , something that is not fulfilled because everything is based on Chance , therefore each time we play in a casino everything is there for us to give free rein to our luck, and accept the designs of the game.
