Don’t we all know that greed leads to losses in gambling? That greed kicks in when we don’t set a target making us keep playing even when we’re already up, until our luck runs out and we end up losing. Can’t we see that? Maybe that’s the reason we don’t win because we don’t know when to stop.
I’m sure the regular gamblers here have experienced this before -- that moment when you say to yourself, "I should’ve just stopped… I could’ve walked away with my profits."
Who can relate?
Any gambler will find a moment in his gaming memories when he regretted continuing to play. He saw that his deposit balance grew, and he remembered this moment, because we all immediately remember such good things. But the thing is that if such a gambler continues to play, then he agrees that his deposit is again at risk of loss due to the fact that luck turned away from him today. But few people realize this. And when the deposit already becomes equal to half of what it was, then such a gambler will think that the casino deceived him.
My main idea is that our memory remembers the good well. And perhaps at such a moment it is better to stop.
