Honestly I'm getting tired of these types of threads where people keep on saying that gambling shouldn't be a profit venture or "you shouldn't look at gambling as some form of cash-grab opportunity". Not because it's wrong, but because there's so many of these that it just doesn't feel right seeing one of these every single week.
Everyone at this point should've known by now that gambling isn't a place where you go there with your sights set on earning money, you're going there balls on your throat knowing that you'll lose your bankroll, but the best part of it is that you get to waste disposable money knowing that you had fun. Any other way you think of gambling is completely wrong, and unless you're a pro cards player (poker, blackjack, whatever they play with the cards nowadays) you should expect the worst when you're gambling, thus you lose your money.
That's all there is to it really.
Just think that people always need a reminder on this matter, thus, the frequency of the similar topics .
But even though we've been seeing this often, many gamblers still have their approach that gambling can save their day.
People don't want to accept the reality most of the time, they are still in the bubble of dreams that one day, they can hit it big time.
Maybe, those who are creating similar threads need a reminder to themselves, if it will bring good to them, then so be it.
If you'll have to create a similar thread to remind yourself, Isn't it a little shitpost-ey? I'm not trying to be cynical here and I know there are benefits to these kinds of posts but one too many of these a week riddling the gambling discussion board is just a little too redundant in my opinion. If everyone who's ever thought of gambling for profit would post their life stories here and their realization this child board's gonna be filled with people just talking bout their silly little stories that we've already heard in the past.
Reserve the right for more fruitful posts to be made in this board. I know, gambling for profit is still a thing and I'm not saying we cut down on all posts that advocate for its relinquishment entirely, just one of it every month is more than enough, not every guy who lost their bankroll telling people what they realized after, only to gamble away their pots soon as they get the chance, posting all their stories. It's a little hypocritical in my opinion.
Again, I'm not trying to be cynical, not trying to antagonize people. Just wanted to see better posts here.
