First thing I do after placing a bet is see my potential win as not mine, those figures written as your potential win are dream money it’s never yours I don’t care if your last game is Real Madrid against a team in the fourth division of Iran’s league.
The imagination of already seeing your potential win as true can make one forget their financial status as it did to the man in the story.
Your financial status is more essential than your potential win in deciding if you should cash out or not.
It is really what gamblers need to consider while gambling because potential wins are not always certain. Many gamblers always fixate on the potential win as something very certain, and they miss the opportunity to cash out while gambling.
Gambling is a game, and it is important for gamblers not to always think about winning the overall amount because the opportunity to cash out while the game is still going on may not come again.
