Well, there are always ways to limit how much money one can make through gambling grinding alone: as I mentioned, I reduced the max size of the bet, which might already be enough, if not too much. There are other approaches too: you mentioned an idea I had with Sonya "nudging" you into stopping for the night, or limiting the bet size further but increasing it with each consecutive win in a session, so that you actually need some luck and can't just save-scum your way into riches too smoothly.

It's also worth mentioning that you shouldn't really need to grind to begin with, and if that's the case I can always tweak quest rewards upward, or add more money/treasure to find around the world, instead. Do let me know if some quests felt too stingy or if there is something that is priced too high.

well if you do implement some way to lower the payout which is not immediatly known to the player you should make it obvious

well i think somepeople just like having a huge amount of money in game side effect the elder scrolls im afraid

I'll cure you guys of your Skyrim addiction!!! Once I finish looting this random cave...

We'll see what I come up with. As I said, the bet size reduction I already did might be enough, so people can still grind a little, they just hit diminishing returns sooner. I am not really worried about balance in a single-player game, so long as it's not something completely abusable.
