![Post Post](./styles/casino/imageset/icon_topic_latest.gif) Quitting while you're ahead at online casinos!
Most players out there who enjoy playing at online casino sites myself included tend to continue playing even after a big win has been hit. I've heard stories in some cases where players would win 100K (non-progressive just a regular win) and would blow back 95K of that within a day or two which to me is just insane. I mean I play back my winnings into the casinos that I play at but if I were to hit a sizable win of this magnitude I'd be cashing out and might even consider closing down my online casino account, lol... na but for real though if you win a big enough amount what's stopping you from cashing out other then perhaps the thrill of the win again. I personally would never risk it with such a large amount. The reason why I'm even bringing this up to begin with is because recently I did catch myself winning a small amount just 5K but I kept playing and ended up playing most of it back into the casino. I was a bit frustrated at myself for having done so and really wish that I could go back in time and cashout at the at moment when I won. It think I would be much happier and really wouldn't been kicking myself for looking pretty much all of the 5K I did win.
One of the biggest deterrents for players is the fact that online casinos have delays in their cash out process. People need to wake up and realize that these restrictions are meant to keep the money in the casino. The fact of the matter is that the longer you keep any money in the casino the more tempted you'll be to continue playing, etc... which will in the end result in you putting all the money back into the casino which really isn't worth it at the end of the day. If you do win a sizable amount be sure to commit to the withdrawal and never look back don't even go back to the casino account unless it's to make another withdrawal (some online casinos restrict the amount that you can take out per withdrawal which is a bummer but may require that you make a few visits back to their cashiers).
Lesson learned on my part... well not really because I've done this before as I'm sure many of you have as well but it's key that you remember to try to stop playing and withdrawal when you do make a big win!

Thanks Lia good advice! Sadly enough though most people get trapped and fixated on the thrill of the win and in some cases when they're really addicted the loss. I wish that ever player out there would withdrawal their winnings when they hit a decent win the unfortunate thing is that even these large wins as you mentioned aren't enough to sway people in changing their ways and gambling habits.

In an ideal world it would work out in such a way that we'd all be winners and walk away happy from each gambling expereince the fact is that even when players win like 100K or more then that even they could be far more in the hole then that overall and they look at it as though they need to get their money back. Because of this I think that quitting while you're a head is easier said then done in most cases for most people!

I think that most of us here whether it be playing in land based casinos or online find it difficult to walk away even if we win a big amount!

It's key to quit while you're a head if you're looking to make money from online casinos and gambling in general. If you're just having fun then who really cares how much you spend in the end ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)

Definitely advised too many times have I put back my winnings into the casino. Sure I have fun but I'm sure that the several thousands of dollars that I could have walked away with could have been used to have all sorts of other fun ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)

It's really the best advice that someone can give you to quit while you're ahead although most people unfortunately don't take the advice and mostly end up giving it back to the casino.

when you're at stake in winning in online casinos and continuously, some other players intend to make more earnings that they have, its a good sign why other gamblers roll their betting.

Definitely but rolling your winnings back into the casino is a sure way to loose it all back unless you have a really good streak but that's not going to always be the case as we all should know by now.

I think for the other players its a safe choice if they stop while their are on the winnings, through this they will come up for their savings and also gained more.

Players generally have trouble walking away mainly cause they're chasing bigger wins. That's how gaming really works you give players a little taste of a win and then keep them coming back for more but in the end players who don't take the small $100 - $1000 winnings will generally put everything back into the casino and then some. It's unfortunate but a reality as far as both land based and online casino gambling go.

It really depends on the players or the gamblers for what strategy they think when on the road of winnings, a decision making that will measure your capabilities in playing online casinos.
