«اِللِّي تِغْلِبْ بُهْ اِلْعَبْ بُهْ»

The saying uses the image of wagering: what one has won is treated as belonging to the winner to use as desired, whether to keep, spend, or risk again. The gambling image describes the metaphor and does not endorse gambling.

It can also urge someone to keep using the means or course that brought success. In a particular situation, the context determines whether the focus is on a possession gained or on the successful method.

Use it to acknowledge someone's freedom in handling what they have gained, or to advise continuing with an approach that has already succeeded. The surrounding context makes clear whether the possession or the method is meant.
