Gambling is meant to be fun and give you a small chance of getting big money, like a lottery ticket. It is meant to be fun, not to make your rich and fix your life, or be something that can wreck your life.

Gambling might cost less than others forms of entertainment if you do it right, even if you lose

So far im on profit so i guess its a good thing for me
what profit? how big is it? im sure that its not more 20% of the balance you gambled as no one stops when they are in big profit, because they think their strategy is unbeatable and eventually looses everything

XD thats true many think of secret strategiwes some even try selling these miracle stategies but in the end the house always wins unless you dont know when to stop Cheesy greed has gotten the better of me countless times too when gambling lol

It is impossible to profit from dice site unless you are lucky.
Even then you would lose it all after some time with the house edge.

until i post it, gambling still fine and still fun for me, atleast for online gambling, because any type of gambling were ilegal in my country..
And i think gambling still fix my personal life, because I made ​​a mindset where I do not have to gambling to become rich or to make money , in my case i gambling only to stay focused and not falling to sleep while viewing live event on TV..

btw any profesional gamblers here (people who make money from gambling for his life)? i like to hear your experience about our friend question here..

its actually quite upsetting. I went to dice for some fun, started out with 1btc after 12 hours or so, I was up at about 3btc and then i got greedy, and within 2 hours had nothing left. Makes you feel so bad knowing you lost all

Gambling can never fix your life. Instead it will wreak and leave you devastate.

Someday you might win big but in the long run you will end up broke and lose all your money.

Remember the house edge always win no matter what.

If you are the owner of a casino then thats a different story btw.

I dont agree at all, Gambling fixed the life of the Casino Owners and Investors they are continuously getting income it may be also for a life time, imagine that getting money without even breaking a sweat  Smiley

There are also situations that gambling fixes a life of a gambler, like for instance the lottery winners bet small and they won like a tons of cash but those are very few

most of those casino owners already had the funds to back their casino anyways, dont think their loves really needed fixing. lets take stunna for example; he can take a 2000 BTC loss from hufflepuff and its fine, hes still got plenty of money to keep PD running.

really? gambling never fix our life? , gambling already fix some people life for years mate.
they have steady income in gamble.
notes : you must have a profit target to make your income from gambling stable and steady.
consistent is one of the key, when you have a profit target, your greedy psychic will never come to burn your money.

So far im on profit so i guess its a good thing for me

well your the lucky one then mate i would consider getting out of the game while your ahead then youll be in profit but if you keep playing the house edge will catch up there is not a chance as it is always set at 1% Tongue

Yes, house always wins in the long run  Grin


yes, so I choose blackjack this kind of game, very low house edge, even lower than 0.5%, so players with good strategies can beat the house if they have good luck, like me, I have won over 300 USD from blackjack, but I lost a lot from sports betting, cos there were many unexpected results, like nadal adn wawrinka lost the match brfore round 16 in London Open several days ago.

No one stops when they are in big profit, because they think their strategy is unbeatable and eventually looses everything

People should stop generalizing all gamblers and stop using the words "no one" and/or "all gamblers". Not everyone are greedy to keep on continue when they are on profit but instead I would say most people are. Some people know when to stop when they are on the lead.

Even with the recent cases from PRC we can see that although mech lost 1300 BTC in one roll the fact is that he is still on profit of 20 BTC . Some cases from Sawdice, yoloers and James won huge amount of 12 and 9 BTC but they did stop and take out their winning. This served as a proof that not all gamblers are the same, you should start using the word "most" instead

Another proof : https://www.moneypot.com/users/bethlengabor

Bethlen was -1.1 BTC and discovered a solid strategy, made a good run at betterbets thus earning him 1.2 BTC thats mean he is up by 2.3 BTC . Never seen him roll anymore since he got that

true, sports/e sport betting is still gambling, and I wasn't taking that into consideration when I typed that; I was referring more to gambling as in the more common sorts: dice, roulette, etc; -ev gambling.

Well, anything that includes a bet, a chance, and a prize is gambling by the definition. Question is, can you get an edge or not?

95% of people equal gambling to dice and stuff, and make a conclusion that everyone will go broke eventually, which is a fair observation.

They would be right, if there was nothing more to gambling other than dice and roulette.



There are several ways and sevaral reasons to gamble, some of them will win you money, some of them wont. But if your reasons are right, you can still enjoy it. Problems start occuring when people gamble in a wrong way, for the wrong reason. (and a lof of people do exactly that)
