Some people would be eager to wait even just for a little bit longer as the match may still turn around in their favor but if you want to minimize the losses and get out of it without a crushing debt then it’s better to cash out as soon as you can. Some may wait just for pure entertainment and the pride of winning and getting it right. Live events are indeed unpredictable and can surprise people. But in gambling context, it is not always responsible to wait the whole play.
If they can be sure with their bet, they can do that while wait the event is finish. But they must remember that the match can changes so they have to prepares for anything including the sadness because their team lose.
It is better not to wait for more while we see the win money so we can take the money and leave it. We still have the next match that is ready to bet. We must remember that playing gambling responsible is needed.
By knowing that gambling is just part of the entertainment, we will not trying to chase the big win while we already see the win money.
I can relate to the havoc of leaving your game to end totally before cashing it out, I have lost a coupon that had almost the pot. win as cashout, but for the difference of just $4, I refused to cash it out and in the end within just 5 minutes the opposing team scored 2 goals and secured a draw while my stake was a win in the Favour of the already winning team. I lost almost $140 because of that error and since then my mentality changed towards leaving my stakes until the final whistle especially if it is the last game. it is better I loose very little than gambling with the entire stakes and even though everything later plays out, am not bothered because I sacrificed a little sum for insurance.
That is what we may face if we cancel to close the bet. We may lose the chance to take the money although that is not be big if we win the full win money. Everything can happen in the match and the underdog can change the situation and make our team can not win. Placing a bet with big money gives a big risk to us so we must not do that if we don't want losing that money. I also experienced as you so after that, I always use small money that I can afford to lose. Well, that helps me to manage the money to gambling.
