Topic: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling - page 36. (Read 6081 times)

Try going back to the title where there is the sentence "make a successful career in gambling". At first glance, the hope is clearly a career/job that involves gambling. So here it is very clear that achieving this success will be easy for those who are officially part of the casino. Meanwhile, for ordinary gamblers who seem to bet continuously without any expense management, I have seen the ambition to win the jackpot, where some friends, relatives, etc. are never satisfied. Moreover, gambling has an addictive effect where even hitting the jackpot does not lead to the end of retirement. You are right that jackpots exist but not everyone can get them. So if it is generalized that all gamblers win the jackpot it means the casino can go bankrupt. Therefore, be wise in responding to this matter, it is not a matter of being naive or not. This is clearly not a guarantee of being an effective way to achieve success.

It is possible however if your bets aren’t that high then you will be needing another source of income to help you out in times of need. We all know that there will always be inconsistencies with the outcome of our bets and losing is more frequent most of the time and in most instances. I have a friend of mine who is making a living out of sportsbetting. I really don’t know how but it works for him. The last time I checked for him, he said he is betting in multiple matches with small amounts. There are also people who literally made millions in gambling industry but ofcourse that won’t happen in an instant and on a regular basis. You would win big time but the way how you would manage your funds will also be a factor to determine whether you would be successful in any industry or not.

Casino operators are the ones who are most benefit and become successful in the gambling industry the same goes for casino staff and casino managers.  

I also searched the internet for people who have been successful in their gambling activities.  Among these people are:

• Kerry Packer – $5 Billion
• Tony Bloom – $1.5 Billion
• Bill Benter – $1 Billion
• Edward Thorp – $800 Million
• Alan Woods – $500 Million
• Zeljko Ranogajec – $420 Million
• Billy Walters – $200 Million
• Dan Bilzerian – $200 Million
• David Walsh – $200 Million
• Phil Ivey – $100 million

What a non sense thing. So, the gambling site doesn't even need to hire marketing if it would not be giving a chance to the user to get a jackpot. In fact, many users were sometime lose or win the game.
This is a common thing in the gambling. I remind you that if there were also many ordinary users who got jackpot from playing the game. People are also thinking gambling as a way to achieve their success through winning the jackpot.
The gambling site doesn't even need to hire people to advertise their platform if they were not giving people chances to win the game. You won a big jackpot and you can think to retire from playing gambling in your life.
Winning the jackpot is the main target to achieve the successful in gambling. Don't be so naïve if the main purpose gambling site doing various marketing to attract people and told them all of gambling was also a way to achieve their success through winning a lot of money.

Whether we like it or not, when you taste the feelings of losing all you want to do is to chase that victory, and aside from that is to chase your losses. It's the typical situation that everyone is dealing with and whether we tell you not to try hard, when it is your emotion and ego being hit by losses, you're going to be on your own without remembering all of those reminders that were given to you.

That's the other side of the story and I think that this belief won't change forever. It's because many gamblers are irresponsible and they're doing crazy things that put a negative view in the minds of those people that see them personally, so that's how their reaction goes for the gamblers and they only think of them as negative people, gambling addicts, will sell everything to gamble, no financial education, etc. As in all of those things that they can think of you negatively, they'll put that to their minds and everytime they see, you know what's on their mind describing you as those qualities.

Until you can prove otherwise the answer is no.  An interesting take on betting is to lay bets which is where you offer odds to be taken, some places allow this then you are both the bettor if you choose but can see the other side of the betting table and understand why odds are offered at certain rates and timescales to match the risk.  Always good to understand a market but dont start off thinking I make money this way.

A successful career in the field of gambling is only reserved for bookies, casino owners, casino workers such as employees who look after the games you mentioned, influencers who have contracts with the casino itself as well as professional gamblers with special expertise in certain areas. Well, apart from that if just an ordinary individual gambler, not even a social media influencer, gambled relying on luck-based games, then in my opinion it would be very silly to make gambling a means to achieve success. Because if that principle makes him optimistic, it means there is something wrong with his way of thinking.

Don't try it, you are going to get yourself in a situation where you will hate yourself in the end and time is a very valuable thing, you will end up losing money and your valuable time, gambling shouldn't be anyone's career, learn something new that can give you what you want, even if you don't end up getting what you want, at least you tried, doing the right thing, but not gambling.

I am not saying that it's wrong to be a gambler but trying to make a career out of something that's nothing about skills is a suicide mission, if I am not able to confuse you, well, I wish you the best of good luck in your mindblowing journey with gambling, I hope you end up making your dreams come true.

I am going to keep doing what I believe it's best when it comes to gambling which is taking risks with little money, even if all I can turn $15 into is 54 dollars I am so good with it, I never work for this money, it takes me nothing to just deposit this money on a casino and do some spinning to make more money, I never worked for it, so this isn't going to get into my head. Good luck OP.

Maybe some people make a career out of gambling or make gambling a full-time job, but based on surveys found in several different places, the number of people who choose to make gambling a full-time job is relatively low. When you are faced with two different sides and the rate of defeat is greater than the rate of victory, your chances of achieving success from gambling are very small.

Gambling also greatly affects a person's character, especially as is being discussed in this thread. It will be increasingly difficult for you to be free from gambling when you are losing or winning. When you lose it will always encourage your desire to win, but when you win, your thoughts will become increasingly difficult to control because you hope to get an even bigger win than the one you just got. Something that is based on luck is not very suitable to be a full-time job.

Yes, because it is impossible to become a successful gambler, let alone consider it as a career, after all, if we consider gambling as a job and a source of permanent income, it is also not correct, the only way to have a successful career is to become a bookie or work as an operator managing the casino itself because more profitable than being a gambler in it is clearly very different.

People always think that people can be successful by gambling in online or offline casinos, that is clearly wrong, even a professional would not consider it a job let alone consider gambling as a source of their income, on average gambling is only considered entertainment for experienced gamblers , the thing to remember is that we all know that the dealer always wins against the gambler even though the gambler always has luck. 

If they were aware of this, they would certainly not use gambling as a source of income but only as a place to have fun that could provide profits, even if not too often. They will work hard elsewhere because it is more promising and they can make money. However, they will find it difficult to make money in gambling because gambling is not designed as a place to make money. Instead of earning income from gambling, brands will only experience losses that could be bigger if they don't realize it and stop gambling immediately. Only a few professional gamblers can make money from gambling while many people only experience big losses. That is why we have to think long and hard if we want to make gambling a place to build a career because gambling is not a job in general.

If you chose to work with the casino and become a dealer or someone who supervises the games, then perhaps you can make a career off of gambling. It's not directly gambling per se, but you get the idea. People who are professional gamblers have the money to start their ventures. And most of these professional gamblers play card games and not casino games so there is a huge difference in there.

You can try your luck in gambling, but thinking of it as a means of supporting yourself all throughout IMO is just bad, decision-wise.

Poker is definitely one of those paths that you have to become professional, let's say that the skill variable works, but there are BJ, Roulette, professional players.

In fact, billiards with all its variants are gambling games, but perhaps those who perform them can be considered high-risk and random professional jobs, since the probability of winning each game depends on how the balls are distributed in each game.

Let's say there are many branches of betting that you can dabble in, so where chance is involved and your income depends on it, it is considered a professional activity.

i can agree if you are into sportsbetting or a poker player. because there are indeed some players of these games that can live thru with this career. but if you will venture the casino classics which are mostly luck-based, i don't think you can make a living out of these games.
but it would take years for you to get good money even in sportsbetting or poker, because you need to acquire such skills and strategies thru experience, so you will have edge with your game.

There are people who are able to turn their gambling career into a successful one. Those are truly skilled and they built that for years.

But that good fortune can't be applied to everyone that's why considering gambling as a full-time job sounds horrible.

It's not that easy to accomplish without a unique skill of our own since gambling requires our own money to start with. How come it can be considered a full-time job if in the first place, we need to risk our own money just to earn from it and our success rate depends only on luck?

It is actually Difficult when you see the game as a job, because it is something very treacherous, it should not be seen as an income because it is the worst decision of all to see the game that way, now when we make the analogy with trading things can be seen in another way, in trading things can go in the direction of what the trader knows best, the more he Speaks the more he will make Money, that is the law, then if a person is not good at it he has to trust what know, and obviously we will follow the best path , then basically when we see that things can be a little less complicated that's where it gets complicated, because when we see that Everything can turn out well we can turn around, in the market for volatility and in the casino, because the casino has many things in its favor, the house advantage, which is something obvious, the other thing can be the very complexity of the game, which makes you lose, all of that makes more and more problems. So you know in this order of ideas we could think that the things that are treated with a caisno must be done with great care.

A successful player for me is one who only plays and wins every day, there is no other way, I couldn't classify anything other than the same and I think many see it that way too, I couldn't say that a player is good and that he is not win , because what you are Going to do is accumulate losses which turns into loss of money, something that should never be allowed. We have to give our money the importance it requires, there should be nothing else that doesn't Matter more to you than our money. Without money we couldn't do Anything , in fact when the money runs out everything goes away and how are we left? wrong , because we Simply cannot make more Money , then our Money , and being in a casino seeing it as Income is not good, it is wrong, and it is not good that other players Think that this is the best Option to see the Games of Chance.

Of course, gamblers want to earn money from gambling apart from just using it as recreation in their free time, which is a normal thing many gamblers already do. But they have to remember that we are only recreational in gambling and not chasing victory, so we don't need to try hard to get the win. Many still forget this instead of trying to make money from gambling. Even so, some people can build a career from gambling, but it will require more effort and ability to use gambling as a job. There is a lot that someone has to learn to become a gambler with a career in gambling that most gamblers cannot afford.

It is normal when we hear people's responses about people being gamblers. Most people will think that gambling is a bad thing, but they don't realize that there are successful gamblers who are not addicted to gambling and can have money to meet their daily needs. Gambling has become something that people must avoid so that their response will be negative.

This thread is sure to be quite long, and it's hard to read through all the replies to find a successful gambler. I suggest that OP creates a poll for us to check who among the posters here believes they have a successful career in gambling.

In reality, there are people who have already achieved success in gambling. The most popular among them are those who excel in poker games, while others are skilled in sports betting. So, the answer is indeed yes. It would be great if someone could share information about a person they know or are knowledgeable about who has succeeded in gambling. This way, we can learn valuable lessons that we can follow to achieve similar success.

Yes gambling does not provide any guarantee of income and there is no way in this platform where somebody can earn continuously. It will be suicidal for those who consider it as a source of income. It is said that the additional income should be any employment through which a person will be able to earn a certain income. A gambler should remember that after a win his chances of losing are high so every bet is uncertain. And don't expect guaranteed income from uncertain platforms. It can only be taken for a temporary enjoyment. But it can never be a source of income for common people. Though we know some of very few professional gamblers they consider gambling as carrear but not for average people.

It's not advisable, those who got rich by gambling never expected it, and that's because they rely on luck, those who expect too much from gambling are the ones who always lose their mentality and get addicted. When you expect less from gambling you will be able to use the right strategy because you still have your mind.

All it takes to be a good gambler is to learn the fundamentals of a particular game like poker or sports then stay with that and get better at it, it's advisable to build a bankroll through responsible nabd strategic gambling, do not, I repeat, do not use more than you can afford to lose.

With gambling it never ends, once it becomes a part of you it will be hard to let go, so make sure that you get used to responsible gambling, be prepared to get disciplined, and also maintain a strong mindset, because when you start seeing loses you can decide to break your boundary and start doing stupid things.

I won't advise anyone to build a career in gambling, only very few numbers of people become one and never lose their minds.
