Default When do you stop for the day???

Ok i was down $120 lost all 6 races i bet on but really liked drilling for oil in the main race at CD. Im not redboarding on this im really not anyway everything im touching turns to dung so i figure you know what i'll just stop now. Well you can guess what happened next. $14.60 to win. My ? is do you all just go all the way out and keep betting or after couple of bad races do you think i dont have it today??? Where is your stopping point?

Just set aside money for your key bets or bet them before you bet anything else. . .

Stop??

No such thing in my lingo, I fire until I am broke. I purposely leave my ATM at home to prevent ultimate tiltness

horse racing is 24/7/365 - no such things as stopping. Maybe you have to pause.....

Amen Scavs. It's the only way you can do that. Bring the $$$ you think you need going into the day, and leave the ATM card at home!

I only take my ATM card that way I have the limit
I am done when the races are. I really hate when I hit early then slowly and surely give it all back
too many races.. etc

I love every second of it. For me it's all about the action
trying to figure out the next puzzle. One time I was confronted by a true gambler a guy that bets with both fists maybe once, if that, or twice a day. because I hit a turf race trifecta with a long shot then hit another tri of first time starters... I just told him that I key on breeding, workouts and if I get that far -pace. teasing a little

to answer the question I quit when the money or races run out.
or when it's time to go and see Sumwon after a race
