This is good advice. Burnout is a bad thing.

Take a break betting can ruin your vacation if you hit a losing streak.

That wasn't necessary.
But yes that is precisely how burnout can be caused...

I have placed a few wagers on a vacation before. But most of the time I do take a break.

I try to take a break but I always end up making a call and betting a few games.
