I think the "smart" way to play and win on casinos, including on lottery like here, is to collect sats at all prices, and hope you win big during bear markets. Happy I gambled most of my RPs and balances during low price periods too. Those sats really become worth something every bull run like now.
Just wish I'd also been smarter about actually NOT losing them as often;)
It is not smart to keep on gambling if the only thing you care about is making money. I gamble because I like the feeling of it and I like to spend some time on it and it is basically like playing a pc game or watching a movie, it is entertainment and I like it. However at the end of the day if you want to make a lot of profit and you do not want to just gamble? Then you should not use gambling as a method since it is not a good way to make money, it is not impossible but it is also a very risky one.
There are tons of ways now here, you could claim for free, you could hope for lottery with your free tickets, you could get fun tokens with it, you could cash out your RP, and you could invest (simply just leave it on your wallet) and all of that combined could make a good income for you. With enough money you could literally live your life off the income from freebitco.in if you have enough.
