I had posted before that I was doing well on the Bourbon Trail $5 lottery scratch-off tickets. I tucked away $50 in winnings and kept buying new ones with the other $20 in winnings and they kept paying for themselves/coming out even. Until today. I bought two $5 scratch-offs with a $10 winning ticket and neither one was a winner. That's it. I'm out. I won't pour out good money after bad. I know when to quit.

@looeyville know when to hold them, know when to fold them. The gambling industry banks on people not having your self discipline.

I think the title of the post does infact say it all Knowing when to stop is what it's all about if you decide to gamble in the first place. I haven't placed a bet for a long time, or gone to bingo or played the lottery. But when I did I actually did know when to stop. And I am really glad that you know when to stop as well I have a pal that lost everything because he gambled Home, job, wife, kids, Not worth it
