In fact, a gambler who cannot control his gambling process will not achieve long term success. Because when he loses bets repeatedly, he will control himself and stop betting. Some gamblers quit gambling altogether after winning a few times, thereby falling short of achieving long-term success. There's nothing wrong with trying to be disciplined so it's actually better to limit the amount of bets or allocations we pay so we don't go overboard. Moreover, it is true that a casino will not give you the games that you get the most from.
