in order to Win in gambling, you must have self control and before even playing must have a Escape plan .
You know when to play and you know when to stop.
I don't understand the word escape plan, I mean if we are in control in gambling, we know what we are doing and we can stop anytime we want.
I think it is about assurance of not just trusting your own control but giving yourself a ultimatum , that is what i understand on that quote.
Escape plan are good for gamblers who are force to gamble and they have a problem controlling themselves, and these are problematic gamblers which I believe people with discipline will never be in this situation.
Well what matters most is there is a escape plan for every gamblers either those who can control themselves or those who cannot.
