Yes the "when is the time to stop" is a hard one. People who win think the winning can only continue. But over time they eek into their winnings, and they soon become lossings.

For me, i look at it this way. put aside $20 a week for gambling and thats that. Im not fussed at lossing $20 a week, but i would be fussed lossing $20 a day.

Basically, i bet throughout the week until i loose $20. So come Tuesday i could be $30 up. by Satday i could be -$15. Or i could loose it all on the one day. But with $2 bets it doesn't happen too often.

I follow a similar PPM tips (party poopers one's) i also have my harness racing too. Those tips are not time consuming, so im not loosing a lot of time, and as they say time=money.

If i was to loose $20 a week for a whole year. It might seem a lot when i stop and think about it. But the progressive loss isn't really a problem.

I think Chuck put it in a nutshell really.

And then thefan makes us wonder "when do you really stop" for me... it is an ego thing stated by goldmember, i enjoy being right. The money in itself wont make me a millionair, it wont win me a house. But it gives me my own personal enjoyment. I also play hockey, and its $250 for a stick, $30 for shin pads, $10 for socks, $150 for mouthguard, $50 for shoes, $10 per match, fuel for travel travelling around 2 hours including there and back, i also have to pay for my own injuries.... went to hospital. Registration is over $100 So in a season of 14 matches: It could well be $1000 in total for just one season.

Now $20 * 52 = $1040. For me, its the exact same amount of money gambling my $20 a week as it is playing hockey for a year.

Yet... you get all this niggling "you shouldn't be spending your money on horse racing, you'll end up broke"

Just keep record, and make sure you dont random bet.
