Why Do We Not Cashout, When We Are Ahead ?

[BLUEWATER]

I agree for not cashing out is GREED. We always want more wins or more money. It happen to everybody. To be a professional slot player or card players takes skill know when to stop and cash out. I would say start cashing out 3 or 4 times of your deposit and keep the deposit in the account for more action later.

Deposit $50 dollars. Balance is $300. Cash out $250 and leave the 50 dollars in the account. That way you have money on your way and $50 to play with. If you lose $50 dollars you will be thankful you cash out. Doesn't matter how much you want to play but just play it smart.

Most dangerous way to play is playing catch up. We always get angry or panic that we lost lots of money, that is a sure way to lose it all.

Take a break or a time out when you start losing and think about what you can use for that money when you cash out. We can't think straight when we are angry or disappointed. Remember the House always win. You can't win every time.

Play it wise!!! And Keep Cashing Out!!!

I think after posting this thread, it made me open my eyes to just what sums of money i was just pissing away by not cashing out.

This afternoon, i just decided to sit back, relax and have some fun, with the small amount i had on my card and cashout if i should get ahead..........cashed out 500.00 at 3 dice.........cashed out 300.00 at Inetbet( did have it up to 500.00 ) the greed factor tried to show itself .........cashed out 300.00 at Slots Oasis.........cashed out 150.00 at Jackpot Capital and 100.00 at Lucky Red, i can say for the day....im ahead and cashed out and its a pretty good feeling i havent felt in a long time.................laurie

Congrats on the wins Laurie!! I think the "target" point for people is all relative to their starting bankroll and budget. Because I'm such a small depositor ie. $10 to $15 at 3D and Inet, and $20 at a time at 32Red....if I hit $100, I'll cashout. They all process withdrawals fast, so the turnaround time is almost non-existent. The way I look at it is....even if I only cashout $100, that's $100 of their money I can play with, which for me, is five or more deposits. Without having to go and put money on my card the next time I play. I wish I could say I have always had that mindset...but unfortunately not. It's just something I've finally come to accept....that the really BIG wins come few and far between...so grab what scraps you can, and use the casino's money in hopes of making more down the road. My two cents.

Once awhile back going to Atlantic City my wife who enjoyed playing slots while I was at the tables, insisted we stop at the Trump Plaza first (a casino I really didn't enjoy) plus we were heading for the Taj, so she could cash a stupid $25.00 coupon they sent her in the mail. Of course she won the argument.

Apparently a bus load or two of customers must of just arrived cause the line to cash coupons had to be 100 deep. She gets on the line and me looking to get out of their as soon as possible, so we could check into the Taj told her I would be playing in the $5.00 slot pit which was close buy.

Only coin machines at this time so I buy a rack of $500.00 worth of $5.00 coins. On my third 3 coin pull I hit second prize for 15K or something very close to that either way. Wasn't in the casino for more then 30 minutes when this happened. Just as there paying me the cash, (of course I wouldn't take a check which might help me get home with the funds) my wife walks over and says "it could only go downhill from here, lets just go home and come back another day". Me, the Einstein degenerate gambler I was respond with "are you kidding me, this has got to be my lucky day", and convinced her to check into the Taj as planned.

Forty eight hours later, driving home negative 10K.

The amount of money I talk about is really not important. What 10k is to one person is the same as what a million or $100.00 dollars means to someone else.

Point being in my opinion, its all about the action. Some people prefer booze, others drugs. Everything done in moderation is fine. But once you cross that line to abuse, you no doubt entered the twilight zone.

Controlled gamblers like Kasino King are few and hard to come by. I consider myself now a reformed gambler at my age, from all the experiences I lived through. I certainly only lose a fraction of what I did in the past, but trust me, I'm still an asshole at the tables.

"it could only go downhill from here, lets just go home and come back another day" ... Forty eight hours later, driving home negative 10K.

Usually winning as soon as you enter, is bad! You belive you have more cash available and start wagering higher than usual, burning at 10x the speed you ought to. Done the same error myself. Why win 2K when I can loose 3K instead, I hear you!

I certainly only lose a fraction of what I did in the past, but trust me, I'm still an asshole at the tables.

I love honest words, I cannot agree more!

Please tell me that was NOT Spin Palace or one of their casinos?

I remember that Fortune Lounge got hauled over the coals here for offering the same thing to players. I believe they no longer do this.

But if a MGS casino(s) are doing this, then eCOGRA needs to take a look at its operations. Because frankly that's just not on

The most likely answerfor this is the fact that when we accually win, we hope that the machine is hot and this is the time we accually get some!

By the time the bank is 1/2, and our motivation is 1/2 - we just want to win back what we originally had. And there you have it! That's why we are great customers,

I agree, when I start to lose I keep playing hoping that my balance will go back to what it originally was and of course it never does. Most of the times online gambling is fun and I consider it a success if I can play for a great deal of time with my deposit even if I never cashout. Anyway I agree with you 100% kimss because sometimes my justification to keep going is trying to get my balance back up.
