I don't think it is a wise choice for a newbie to bet in gambling sites, it happened to me and sad to say I lost a lot and realized it was not really a good choice for me to bet on gambling sites and I was a noob back then, it'll just eat you out especially your emotions. Better trade them instead and if you profit already from the capital then you can try your luck with gambling. But if you are a risk taker and are willing to loose all the profits you have then by all means try it out.
It is not a wise choice? Can yo explain me how someone is a professional in any filed? Do you think that a person is born with professional
skills? If you had bad luck with your start that means that you were doing something wrong.
I do not know how to explain it with simple words.
-"Fail is better than never try"
-"Try and fail, but do not fail to try"
-"Better to try and fail, than not to try at all"
This proverbs, and many other similar ones, are the answer on question "Is betting a good choice for a newbie?". For a newbie the best thing
is to try everything, cause if you do not try you will not know are you good in something or not. Trying is not investing all what you have, try
with amounts that you can afford to lose.
