Yes, it is short but the wording is spot on >> 

"If you stay too long at the casino, you make the transition from playing to gambling".

((Gambling is like a commando raid: the gambler must get in, do some damage and get out. Hanging around too long in the presence of superior forces can be fatal))

good comparison. I should add that you should know how much damage will be done in advance. Besides knowing how much damage you can take before giving up.

There are those who stay too long looking for a little more and return it all ultimately. and there are those who never did any harm and are blind to this fact. to be awaken only when they have lost the last chip.

I really do not think that if someone goes to the casino with a thousand he does not realize it is time to stop if you already have two thousand. Likewise: Come on if you go with one thousand and lose to five hundred without ever being up in the session  this is not your day. Better to accept it and leave the casino with something left.
