No, except that it wastes time by artificially waiting to play the
next hand due to whatever "system" one is playing. I've heard that
"quitting while you're ahead" is the key to winning at gambling. But
this compartmentalizing of one's results into "sessions" is all in our
minds, not in the minds of the machines. The "pleasure of gambling"
is based on the illusion that there is meaning to short term results.
It doesn't seem fair that seeing things as they are takes all the
"fun" out of it.
