I do agree that the house edge always gets you, now I'm not a gambler at all however in my early years I used to go to a local casino for half an hour and win around $15-30-50 a day. It was in an electronic type roulette. I swear I somehow learned a pattern where certain numbers kinda started to fall which eventually lead to me betting on number zero and win big.
The moral of the story is that, while I did this for a month or so and I was very disciplined (cashing out after I hit 0 or other number), one night I thought I was invincible and started playing BlackJack because I wanted more. I think I loss 30-40% of my winnings so far in that one night. So even if you somehow managed to get good in a game, a bad streak or a bad decision will take it all away eventually. The casino knows that when you win, you will come back to lose it all sooner or later.
I know what you are wondering, so why don't you just kept playing on the roulette? I did for a little why, but they eventually closed it and then later upgraded it for a new one. There was no pattern to learn on this one...

This is the cruel true for every gambler. Gambling create addiction. The addiction create for sure loss of all the money. End of story.
yah, it is really very hard to stop. it is like when u r on a winning streak, you will believe you are and carry on playing. and when u lose a bit, you will bet more to win back cause u will believe you are winning, it is only when you lose quite a huge amount that you realise it is no longer and most of the time you end up losin becuz of that.
