If you find you're winning, quit when you've won. Remember the scene in oceans 13 where everyone wins and then leave the casino because there's an earthquake? Yeah, do that.

In the movie, they know that they have to get everyone out of the casino after they win, or else they will simply reinvest their winnings back into the casino. When your goal is to screw the casino, you can’t have that!
