Psychology of "swing" versus amount bet.

I look at it the same way. I do it in craps a lot. I'll have a $5 DP bet down with $30 in odds on a 4 or 10. While I'm waiting for the bet to be resolved I'm mentally thinking to myself, I'm either gonna have the chips left in my rack or my rack + $55 more dollars. When I see that point number again, it hurts $55 dollars bad, not just $35 bad.

Not me. If I have an edge, I pound it as hard as I can. If you look forward to cutting your losses , it is a self-fulfilling prophecy !
