For me, I try to follow a simple rule:

For online poker, I double the buy-in and then leave. I think that as your stack grows, there is a chance of losing it all in a single bad beat.

For live cash poker, I rarely leave because I want to maximize profits. I usually just stay and play as long as I’m enjoying it.
I meant online casino games. Poker is a different matter :)

My loss limit is $20-$30.
My take profit is at $100-$150.
Sorry, maybe I didn't write it clearly enough.
It's much clearer now but I also should've read more carefully, sorry.

What is your Take Profit?
And do you have one at all?
I have a Take Profit, this is my so-called "upper limit" upon reaching which I simply stop the game and close the session. My limit for the evening on slots is $20-$30. As soon as the total on my account is $100-$150, I stop and close the session. Do you have this limit, this bell that signals you that the plan for today is fulfilled?
It’s always good to call it a day!
But the next day there’s always a high chance of everything getting emptied in less than 5 hands! 😄

I recently put $100.00 into a Huff and more Puff slot at my local club and within 10 $1 spins I hit a $220.00 win, I immediately cashed out and stopped playing.

👍
This is definitely a great result!

I like to stop the game after winning x500- x1000 🙂☕
A fairly optimistic scenario. But of course it all depends on the amount you decide to spend.

It all depends on the amount I have for the game. If it is, for example, $100, then I will gladly take $50 of profit and finish the game. But if it is, for example, $10, then I will finish the game when I can make at least $20 of profit.
Very practical approach :)

If the slots give 1:1 I think that's a very good result. So good that it's definitely not worth continuing :)
You are absolutely right.

I won't usually gamble unless I have a hundred to blow, which goes fast enough that any less you wouldn't be there long.
Anytime I win, no matter what the game, I tighten up. But starting at about the time I double my money, if I start to lose
I will get the heck out. Online is different, if I lose much period I switch sites or wait for another day,

I don't put less than $100 in, and like the win I stated previously, if I double I don't give it back, especially if I double within 10 spins. We play slots to maybe win some money, once I've done that I get out.

I don't play online slots anymore, I haven't for a long time.

Thanks, there's no point in giving it back, once I double I get out.
