Yes I did, he's my classmate. He won in a dice game of Bitsler with approximately 3 BTC and then he used it to grow more in poker since he's also good playing it. I can really say that he's skilled gambler enough but fortunate at the same time. Sometimes I use his strategy and it gives me more odds in winning.

I guess the right question should be "have you met a regular gambler who  earns regular income from gambling and is able to pays his bills from the income." 
Looking for such is difficult. I know that there will be a chosen few but I don't think that they'll even admit that they can do that.

I've tried it before but no can do, I can't help myself to sustain through gambling for a long time. This is all good for a short time especially if you're not a big gambler.

I have not met a successful gambler if there's any, instead I know lots of people who became addicted and lose their money due to gambling.

Btw what does successful gambler means? Is it the one who became successful in this career like those who are always lucky or the one like who won the lottery and win big time.

Gambling is not a way to earn stable income so im curious if there's really people who manage to become one.

I guess the right question should be "have you met a regular gambler who  earns regular income from gambling and is able to pays his bills from the income."  A  big win cannot determine whether gambling is as reliable source of income.
The likelihood of gambling being a reliable source of income to gamblers is very small.  therefore gambling should  never be seen as a source of income

I am sure that when you heard his story, you are amazed to him and I think you imagine if your luck will be like him. Winning 1 bitcoin in gambling is difficult for every people and only people who have the luck that can do that. But that is not good if we are only playing gambling because we chase the win money, we need to do other things to get the money and not from gambling.
Winning 1 bitcoin depends on when it was. Though 1 bitcoin = 1 bitcoin but for me the price by that time is also important. The guy never said when he was able to met that person who told the story of winning 1 bitcoin on roulette. But as long as it's a success for him, then let's just consider that guy as a successful gambler. I'd like to take an hypothesis that the guy won 1 bitcoin on roulette + trading during the all time high days of 2017.

So i was just wondering, aside the times i see the names of rich and successful gamblers during my google search, i dont think i have personally met anyone who made it big in gambling. Its possible there are  but i know more of those who have lost more than those who have made it.
Please note that by been successful, i  do not mean those who make this little and minor winnings on a daily bases(NO). I mean those with Big records, like who have won over 1BTC from gambling. If you know any either in an online or offline casino please dont hesitate to share their story, you can include the name of the site they made their wins, i am sure someone would be encouraged. Lets go guys Roll Eyes
Yes, but I met him not knowing that he is a gambler. I thought he is just a simple person. But when I talked to him, we shared about gambling also. That is the time, I saw how he had been addicted in gambling and he won 1BTC just in rollet. Now, I salute him because he has many bitcoins came from Gambling and Trading as well.

I think if you are playing on a house edge game there is no way you can be successful.

How can a person be a successful gambler? I know one person who won a lot from sportsbetting if that counts and sportsbetting is not pvp like poker or something so it should count. Dude played on 3 games that all seemed impossible, like he played on 3 teams that were destined to lose those games for sure and he bet on them anyway (I think this was on the world cup before the last one, so not the one France won but previous one) and not only he bet that the worse team will win but he bet something like draw on first half as well (I think it was either draw or better team ahead on first half).

So, it was even more impossible yet he won those games, I remember watching the first two games, me and my friends were playing fifa and didn't care about him because it was obvious he would lose but all of us stopped and watched the last game like crazy.

He bet like 10 bucks and made more than 5 thousand as far as I remember (amount could be different it wasn't dollars so I am exchanging from my mind how much dollar worth at that time).

Yeah it is true to get proper success we will have to gamble at huge level we will have to go above house edge gambling, there are so many casino where people can gamble for profit, so better go there try your luck, with time people get success but at beginning avoid trying new websites for gambling, gamble with well known and famous sites only.

I have never found a successful gambler so far, all I know is that being a gambler does not guarantee success and if you only get a little victory, it might happen but it won't make you successful.
most gamblers will eventually lose everything if they continue to play it and are only obsessed with the desire to be successful.
That is how the gambling designed as,if someone found doing gambling for long term the chances of having lot of saving in their account is less.

So what can be the success from gambling,money or fun?
Maybe main purpose of a lot of people is money. That is why success in gambling maybe people will said if that person be really rich because of gambling. But for others, make fun of gambling and play without pressure is something that they want to achieve too.

Yes, we still saw the people reason for playing gambling is because of money. They want to win the money from gambling by playing so many games, but some of them do not realize that winning the games in gambling is not easy and they need to spend much money, and they must have the luck to win.

Its hard to make money from gambling and therefore it is hard to find the successful gamblers. But if we try to find out the successful gambling casino they are plenty of them.
Its a bitter truth that most of the gamblers are at a loss and only a few have tasted the overall profit from their portfolio.

Yep, that will be different from the gamblers, and the gambling site and the win money will be at the gambling site than in the gambler's hand. The lucky factor will be the main reason for the gamblers to win any gambling games. We could find the successful gamblers from the internet, but unfortunately, we don't know the real facts of them so we could only read the news.

Checkin back in on this thread.

When you play dice online for hours everyday you're gunna have loosing spells. I tried to twist "take the $$ and run" with "Spend the $$ then play." Works okay, but a lot of times my actual $$ and bankroll is fairly low and i'm surrounded by lots of items i don't really need. And all my bills are paid for a while.

Here's my claim to fame on a 10 btc win on new years 2019.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldeXCLZh6Xo

It also details my typical day, busting my funds a few times before a big win. Or bust busting that days funds all toetherr. I also have to hide $$ from myself or those loosing streaks can turn ugly. All in all im a gambling addict but sometimes the $$ can come so easy. Like the other day was low on funds and took 500k to 0.88btc. And other days Ill have multiple btcs and play sloppy and loose way more than I should.

It's so hard to stop playing when you're winning too. Until that one day you loose and you're chasing back up to your highpoint. Happened to me last feb after being up a significant amount. Some sound adive is don't chase losses, play with a fresh slate everytime.

The fun fact is that you have more possibilities of becoming rich via poker.
This happens because poker is involved a lot in strategical decisions and bluffing rather than only to luck. But indeed, yes none has become rich from gambling.

It is true though, the possibility of a skill-based game is higher than luck-based game but still, it is gambling. I've watched a lot of professionals going to each other and they still lost. Even professionals lost and that comes down to maybe their sponsors or where they put their money. You can say someone is rich but you can't say if that is because of gambling since there are people that don't really spend their money gambling but also in investments especially if we are talking about a professional gambler.
They've got the chance to win big so there's also possibilities that those money that they've got is also from their gambling activities, as one big hit can give them enough amount to become rich, there's casino players who can manage to win huge amount of money in a single day.

In gambling there is so much to earn profit as there are so many gamblers that you can choose according to your interest and your own mentality, when you spend your money you will get reward for it more than double, if you are lucky you will be able gain triple or multiply with 10, I am happy to be a gambler because there are so many successfully earning with gambling.

Uuhm, I have seen only one person that got a big win from an offline betting center and he was going crazy about it and even pulled out his clothes and ran into the road shouting, lol. People had to calm him down. He was acting that way cause he never believed that he's ever going to win the kind of amount he won and he was also someone that is very broke, so making huge was something he never expected was going to happen. I'm just hoping that he doesn't go back to gambling all that money he won and rendering himself useless again in life.
Yes, that is the ideal way when winning huge amount from gambling. Better to stay away first to avoid losing much also since one can bet huge bets because of the huge win or profit from winning. Yet, if one can control the bets then one can still bet but it should be minimal only betting only minimal amounts of money.

That minimal bets can be dangerous in the long run.

Always remember that you are still gambling, no matter how high or low your bets are, you are still gambling, you are still in that circle that you don't decide whether you lose or win that money, you are at risk. If you want to win in gambling? don't gamble at all since that is better than gambling even in smaller bets since there is no difference in a gambler with huge bets and gambler with lower bets, they are still gambling and they will end up losing.

People might become rich through gambling if they are extremely luck but they can stay rich only if they invest the money which gives stable income.

Trusting gambling for staying rich will make them to be poorer.
That is why i am not really in gambling. Gambling, even make us rich, and if we not know when to stop, only need time for us until our money is gone because of that. Maybe play gambling with spare money and look for fun is good. For example, in poker games that we still can play or maybe guess something in sportsbet.

The fun fact is that you have more possibilities of becoming rich via poker.
This happens because poker is involved a lot in strategical decisions and bluffing rather than only to luck. But indeed, yes none has become rich from gambling.
Maybe that is why in some films it always show how someone can be rich in poker games. Like some famous films. And maybe, one who can be rich from gambling is people who get lottery, because if me i wouldn't stop buy it after win it once.  Grin

Not sure who to call as successful gambler but I know some people who won huge amount on gambling and also knows that they spend those huge rewards in very less time period and didn't got any change in their life.Moral is easy money will not stay with us too long. Cheesy

Truth be told, I haven't encountered any single person that I can consider successful in gambling. If you ask the opposite, I bet there will be a long list for this. But sometimes how you identify success matters here. Is it about money or emotional impact to that person? If we gauge success in terms of money, only few individuals attained such success on this part but emotional well-being, might have bigger number.
we can identify the people who won huge amount of money from gambling but we didn't care about how many people losing their money while gambling so money is not the thing we can make from as regular person but we may get some other benefits while gambling.
Its easier to pay attention to those who win than those who loose because we know that winning is a rare thing in gambling and loosing has become a norm especially to the high class gambling losers that has now referred to gambling as a form of entertainment.

It’s so ridiculous how people spend their daily hard earned income on a game to enrich its owners all in the name of pleasure, I would rather go on a date with my girlfriend with that money than put it into a casino site after all its all Fun. I gamble but I do it for money and I try all the available tactics to winning. I DISLIKE IT WHEN THERE IS A LOSS BECAUSE I don’t envisage for that to ever happen.
I don’t think gambling for fun is a bad idea, it doesn’t mean anyone is making any site rich, as long as the gambler is happy and is playing with knowledge, that is the most important  thing anyway. Because whether you play for money with the hope of making yourself rich, you still will never get rich through gambling anyway, so why the stress and if I may ask you, with all the strategies you have applied to gambling, how much have you made so far and why has your name not been listed on the most successful gamblers?  Lol

The idea is just to have fun with whatever we find in our hands. It must not necessarily be for gambling alone, because fulfillment is what makes success.
We should accept that there are people who became millionaire just by gambling but it happens once in million or billion which should be realized by every gambler to play for fun not for money but there are chances as well to make money through gambling but its not a source of income.
