Arc, let me see if I can finally get you to understand.

Unless you know when to quit (which is when you have a profit) you run the risk of never having a profit.

If you continue playing -- even at your positive expectation game of one eye jacks --you run the risk of running out of money at some point because you hit a "cold run" you were not prepared for.

But by cashing out your wins, and banking them, you give yourself the ability to build up "reserves" that allow you to get through the droughts and the slumps.

Now, by cashing out at certain win goals (and your win goals for each session can increase if your wins are greater than your initial win-goal) you will be building up these reserves.

If you continue to play without deciding on a point to cash out at each session you run the risk of finishing each session with a loss -- and never having a profit.

Now, does that add up for you yet??
