People like those (me) who don't gamble for fun have this question to answer: how will you feel when you don't have money to stake a game that you predicted and better winning games you predicted played the way you predicted it and when you checked the winning was something that could have changed your life for ever if you didn't gambled again after such winning?
This question can be very tough to answer, but believe me, many people won't stop thinking of that if it happened to them, so I want to know your opinion about how you would feel if it happened to you.
If it happens to me, I can't stop thinking of it, but definitely one day I will stop thinking about it and see it as history or not yet, my time for big wins just like how it happened to me when I lost a bet that would have given me
long-term smiles.
This happened not only in gambling, it happened in real life situation, more like opportunity you missed or the chance you refuse to take because of the risk involved. However, does it matters if the game went as you predicted or not, you didn't play it and you didn't involved any risk, there is nothing to feel atleast for me, it's a chance I missed and refuse to take due to financial condition and money to play. At that moment, I will feel bad but will forget it the next minute, will try again the next time.
I know other people will say you should borrow money and gamble which is a big mistake, the moment you start gambling with borrowed money, it will become a habit that will be difficult to avoid, hence any moment you lack fund to play, the next thing that will come to your mind is to go and borrow money and when you lose, you will have yourself to blame especially when you categorically stated that you play because of money and not for the fun, you should never regret but make sure to used the same skill proficiently the next time you have money to play as you do for the money and not for the fun.
