There are professional Gambler and there are addicted gamblers. Most professional Gamblers bet on the skills, like a tennis player who bets on his/her game to be played by him. Some bet on other peoples game, like football, they spreadout their money to predict the winning team. For those who bet on their on skill, apart from the fact that they know their capacity with their opponent, they get better in the process and have their own success on their hand.some people are already rich and will also be paid for the game they bet on, but fix up money to attach the totality of themself into compulsory success

But if you decide to make your living from it, you are doomed.
Really depends on your costs, people make the mistake of spending money they dont have too often. Its a modern disease to get into debt and be happy with that, past generations just didnt have access to credit in the way the modern working person does and so it was never an option and they would have very low costs and provide for themselves not buy everything from others. If someone is going to take an extreme way of earning money they are going to have to be a bit of a genius when it comes to managing money when its few and far between. I used to live in a shared house where they would go fishing for dinner, no fish no dinner pretty much because they were waiting on work. Its pretty rare nowadays but anyone hunting coins is going to catch a few rabbits at the same time most likely or something similar to get a regular meal. Gambling as a profession also seems unlikely except to someone whose done it there whole life and is familiar with all the mistakes and previously paid for them all. Somebody with an epic knowledge of sports betting is viable just rare as hell Im pretty sure, its not easy to beat the odds except maybe via hedging and thats not without risks.

I think only people who are lazy to work or do not have other jobs that make playing gambling a profession to make money instantly
I think they are not lazy, but they don't have work, and they cannot search for work in out there, so they try to play gambling.
if they dont have work , i cant even imagine how can they play gambling ? if you dont have work you dont also have a money . no money is equals to no crypto , so what will you use as bets to play gambling ? gambling using faucets ? some sites have disabled thier faucet and most sites prevent faucet abusers so there is still no possible way to make good money without a capital . they are only lazy because they dont want to work or they dont want to apply for a job . there are so many jobs available out there for a person that is really determined to work

there won't be many people who depend on income from gambling, especially if gambling can be done as a profession to be able to make money. I think only people who are lazy to work or do not have other jobs that make playing gambling a profession to make money instantly
I think they are not lazy, but they don't have work, and they cannot search for work in out there, so they try to play gambling. They think that they can win the games and get the money, but the truth is that it will be difficult for them to win. We can count with our finger for the gambler who can get the money from gambling and use gambling as their source of income, and that is not too many of them can do that. That will remind us that in the gambling games, we cannot make it for the source of income.

What are you saying? The reason it is called a profession means that people are earning through it as a source of income. That is like when parents are telling their children that they can't earn anything from playing online games and now million and million of money are being priced to these games and now being called esports.
He clearly does not understand what is gambling and what is making money in gambling.
Calling it lazy is alright, in fact I think that a gambler making money in gambling is a smart person, he doesn't need to work hard, he just have to play it smart. Whatever our strategy or our way is, our main purpose why we work is to make money, gambling can be a profession also, and it could be the highest paying job if you are successful in this venture, I'm telling you it's true, most gamblers aim to win consistently, but only few have the skills to do it.
Those people who acquired opportunities to live a life using this venue mostly are kind of people who are not greedy. They are contented with decent profits to survive then comeback the next day to play again.
Greediness is not a measure here as everyone of us has that inside of us, what is necessary to make money in gambling is to be consistent and I don't think those who are making money will be contented since as you said, they will come back to play another day.
Personally, if I have this kind of skills, I will never be contented, making a living in gambling is the best job that we cannot limit our income, here, we can be rich even in just a short period of time that's why a lot of gamblers are trying their luck here but they were wrong since it's not luck what is needed here but skills to consistently win.

You can call yourself as a professional gambler or whatever who make a living out of it successfully for years ... until the time where you lost everything because of gambling come.
Yesss it's a very rare case when someone live out of gambling forever! It's sounds impossible for some people.
At some point you can have a different way to describe this 'live out of gambling' but A wise action is the needed ... here's the scenario.
once you hit big and you think it's enough to have a good life for years and start a legit business , you have to leave gambling world forever and forget it so you won't wasting / risking your money anymore to gamble.
Then you are living well because of gambling now.

I like that last paragraph. People don't seem to remember this when they argue that no one becomes successful through gambling. I have seen/heard couple of people who got super lucky playing lottery or sports betting.
But the funny thing about this whole thing is that once their life is changed in that measure, they completely abandoned gambling. This is exactly thesame opportunity millions of gamblers are wishing for. So it is safe to conclude that few are successful through gambling.

...you can even "win big" occasionally finding something precious such as ancient Roman gold coins. But if you decide to make your living from it, you are doomed.

lol, you have really found some good quotes there. I particularly like Mr Norbert Mong's comment, he shall henceforth be known in our household as "The Metal Detecting Buddha"
I feel this is dangerously close to getting off-topic (OK, it's already miles off-topic), but I once went metal detecting as a teenager. I found a human jaw bone... realized I had been wandering around in a medieval burial ground... back then I thought it was pretty cool. Now... not so much..
It's not exactly off-topic because we are discussing here the possibility of living out of gambling. Metal detecting is worth talking about because this is a good analogy of gambling activity: if you do it just for fun, you can indeed have fun with it and you can even "win big" occasionally finding something precious such as ancient Roman gold coins. But if you decide to make your living from it, you are doomed.

I have heard that term Professional gamblers a lot of time but, I have never come across anyone who claims that they live out of gambling. Gambling is a game of probability, which means either you win or lose. The chance of winning is not controlled by you, when you cannot control your earnings, you cannot live out with gambling. Therefore it is highly likely that you will find a professional gambler.

You don't call them lazy, you call them smart because it's hard to win in gambling and they are making gambling as their profession. September 13, 2019, 07:16:26 PM

You don't call them lazy, you call them smart because it's hard to win in gambling and they are making gambling as their profession. If I have the skills, I would always do this, I don't need to please other people or work for other people to earn my through a small salary, in gambling, this will answer all my wants in life and I will become financially free, IF... yeah, there's always a big if since chances are very low.

Yes, not always gambling will give you luck for your life, before everything runs out because gambling is a source of income for him, then having another business out there is a wise thought and it should be done. Indeed there are people who live from gambling, but I'm not sure that way you can get happiness because gambling is not to be the main source of income and gambling is not a profession. Yesss it's a very rare case when someone live out of gambling forever! It's sounds impossible for some people.

I don't think people who go home with nothing but stories of the casino after losing everything can be called professionals!You need to make bank to be considered a professional gambler and as far as I know such people that make it out with a good pay cheque at the end of their games do exist and I have seen and read about them ,year in year out.

The chances for us to win in the sports betting will not be too big if we don't know how to pick the right sports because that will depends on how good we know about those sports. If we don't have any info or knowledge, then we will be difficult to win. And to develop the skills is not easy because it will need effort and practice in years so we can get the experience.
I'm not saying it's big or easy, I'm saying it's possible because there are people who are proven to be successful in sports betting.
Unfortunately, if we look at the rate, there's only a small percentage of the total sports gamblers who are really successful, but if we make an effort to pursue, who knows we will be part of the number of successful gamblers.
Yes, I don't think that they can make a living, but if they can win so much money, then they can make a living from the gambling industry. But that will be only a few gamblers who can do that.
We have different opinion but I will respect yours, but hopefully one day I will be able to prove it to you by my experience that I can make a living, and hopefully you will believe me if I show you some proof.
I don't think not all of them. Though there are a lot of gamblers that earned a lot, there are still a lot of them that lost a lot. If you really have the skill, I encourage to gamble since it will create you instances and paths to success. They said that when you enjoy and like what you are doing, it is already a success.

learning how to handle your emotions is the most important part when it comes to gambling. i have lost so much when i was mad cause of some loses and trying to get it back fast... in the end i have lost everything. if i had stopped playing and going on with my strategies later... i think i would have been more succesful. 
Yes. It is very easy advice to give, but not easy to follow.
We have heard from many pro-bettors that one of the hardest things is when you have a losing run a, and you start to think "what am I doing wrong?".... but you don't even know what you were doing right, when you are winning!
So "going back to the correct strategy" can be difficult, because many don't have a clearly defined strategy... they bet more on feeling.. but then how do you know when you are doing it wrong? Tricky... but then if it was easy, everyone would be doing it.
Obviously this ins't easy at all, otherwise, these gambling site are already bankrupt now.
That's why a lot of people have tried and challenge themselves because if you are successful in gambling, this will become a lucrative job of making money.
When I was new, I also start my journey here, I was ambitious when I was new but later realize it's not easy as I think.
It is not easy at all and I think it is quite impossible to earn a living from gambling.When I was young and still studying in college I worked a few months in a sport betting and horse races casino.
I saw people who claim to be making a living from gambling and stayed there from morning to evening but what I saw was that these persons got divorced,lost their jobs and started to borrow money,in other words was the end of their life.
That part on "it is quite impossible" is not really based on fact. I think you are just guessing.
It is possible that people are making a living from gambling but the number is could be quite small. I remember people saying thesame thing about trading cryptocurrency but I ended up realizing it's not totally correct when I started trading. It likely that thesame mindset exists in gambling world. People who are profitable could even become overwhelmed by pessimistic community and begin to doubt their skills
