King0818, the Feds don't stop you by knocking on the door, they only stop you when they beat you in court and send you to a country club for 18 to 60 months..and even then some have worked their business from the farms.
Ask Shrink, his(& many others) friend Dickie Stevens dodged them for years, using a car phone and lapping the block 50 times every hour, while scribbling & calling..an absolute ambidextrous marvel!
It is said that Gil Beckley amongst a few others, could recite an entire football card & lines from memory alone at pay phones, when the heat was on, and a need to be empty handed or on safe lines was called for.
Most all gamblers are greedy, the concept of "how high is high?" always applies, and to 99% of the 2/10ths of one percent consistent big winners, ego is also in play.
And to those that think being or getting rich makes a difference..Dollar players graduate to nickels to dimes to 2 dimes to 5 dimes to 10 dimes to 20 dimes to 50/100K players to eventually being bookmaker's bookmakers..it never ends..the name of the game just changes.
As Herbie Hoops has noted, "to the gambler, nothing is worse than not having the action!"
Many may ease up(by degrees of choice or force)..but never quit in entirety.
