Rule #1- A win is a win no matter the amount. Whatever you win for the day consider it a win. Whether it's 50 dollars or 50,000 dollars be thankful for the win. Look on the bright side at least you did not lose any money.
Rule #2- Only gamble with an amount you feel comfortable with. Never let anyone pressure you into gambling with more than you are comfortable with. When you start gambling outside of your comfort zone that is when things begin to get dangerous. Which leads us to our next rule.
Rule #3- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never put your mortgage or car payments on the line when gambling. If you can't afford to gamble with it then you should not be gambling, period.
Rule #4- Know when to quit. You should know when to quit by setting limits for yourself. For instance you could say if I lose 100 dollars I will quit for the day and if I win 500 dollars I will quit for the day. Setting your gambling limits will help you avoid chasing your bets and will help you avoid losing your winnings.
Rule #5- Study your game. If you are really in it to win you should study the odds of each game you are playing. Studying your game of choice helps you avoid placing bad bets.
These are just a few of the top gambling rules to follow.
