\nThis is big term in poker, but it can also apply to craps.<\/p>\n
\tWe will make some assumptions for the following example.
\n\tPlayer is a practiced player with at least 5-10K rolls in practice. Player has a sufficient bankroll relevant to the table stakes and has baugut in with sufficient start up and sustaining capital. Table conditions are very good. Player is the only one at the table. Limits are $10 min. Player is conservative aggressive ( $10 pass full odds, $30 6&8 $25 4&10). Assume that the point in each case is an even number (4-6-8-10)<\/p>\n
\tPlayer has 3 straight Point 7’s or less than 3 rolls, in a row. That would mean that the loss’s will stack up quickly to +- $440. At this point frustration really sinks in. The player knows that they can roll their way out of this, but bank their bankroll is quickly depleting and this has a physiological effect. <\/p>\n
\tInstead of doubling up on their bets in the hopes of stopping the bankroll bleed, its time to just walk away. Today was not the day. It happens. Take a break, go to the pool, go sightseeing anything but play right now. <\/p>\n
\tThe mind has to cool down and not think about getting back to even or why this happened. That can all be sorted out in practice. For now, it’s time to breathe. Walk away while the losses are sustainable. Many poker players have lost their entire bankroll because of tilt. Don’t let this happen to you at craps.<\/p>\n

\n\tYou know the advantage is there, but quitting after missing the royal on a 1 card draw, or missing the aces after drawing to trips ten times in a session, can make your better judgment become a full tilt chase.
\n\tGetting beat in the exacta or trifecta by a nose when you know your handicapping is good and you just had a bad trip or a little bad luck makes you want to bet the next race and double up.
\n\tThe problem is sometimes it works and you justify it in your mind that you have done it before why not again.
\n\tYou forget your GTC ways and become the old action junkie you were before the first primer course.

\n\tIts when I win ! I want to win more and more. I up my bets " I’M PLAYING ON THERE MONEY ", no its my money now.
\n\tWhen it goes into the rack, in my pocket, or in my on line account, its mine.
\n\tThanks to GTC I now control this urge better than ever before.
\n\tThanks again for the teachings that apply to all gaming activities.
