I believe the use of control in gambling is best suited for minimizing losses and staying within limits, because you can’t really control your wins. If you’re good at gambling and you know when to push, you can be greedy and maximize profit. But if you’re not careful and don’t have control, most likely you’ll end up losing a lot. Even if you set a budget or bankroll just for gambling, once you lose control you go stupid and start betting beyond what you can afford, and that’s how addiction happens.
Personally, I use control when I’m on a losing run. But when I’m winning, I seize the moment, because luck doesn’t stick around all day.
When you feel you’re lucky, go big or go home.
