You have made big money man. Making $2000 is big deal. I have been in the sports gambling for long and I have not even managed to make more than $500 so far. I think it is something that also relates to your experience. If you are good ta gambling, you have good chance to make big money. In addition, gambling in the niche that you are good at increase your chances of making money.
If you think in that manner even a sum more than 2000 would seem big to you. Its all relative you know - the rich is poor in terms of someone higher than him. You need to know your limits and control your greed. Someone won some big amount does not mean that you can also that big amount. You may end up being in a net loss position trying to hunt that win. Be it sports or dice you will not be able to keep up winning every time so dont gamble too much.
That fact that people think that gambling can make them rich actually makes them poor.
I personally don’t see the thought of making it through gambling as an offense and to be frank, this is my wish and I am still working hard to see that this is achieved someday. It might seem impossible but it is very realistic, the process is always very difficult and it takes only the patient to achieve this dream.
I have never won any big money from gambling but I know the story of very close relatives who did, the latest that’s still very fresh in my memory is my cousin, he won a lottery of over 50,000 by mere playing with less than $300, and he has been trying for over 4 years. He kept on hoping and believing that a good time will come that would favor him, and lo and behold, it did and today, he is in money and already has a change of status.
