Actually, many people and some social researchers have suggested there is an inverse proportionality between the amount a gambler would wager in Relation the knowledge they have on mathematics and laws of probabilities.
When anyone gambles, that person is not supposed to be thinking about the chances he has to earn money, otherwise it will only end up in frustration and broken expectations. Those who enjoy their sessions at the casino the most are those who think the least about mathemstics. You know why? Because there is only reason anyone would try to apply math on dices or slots in a casino: to try to make money out of it, and we all know how that turns out to most of the gamblers.
Just see gambling as fun, fun does not need to have a rational purpose to exist. For example, there is people who likes to drive around their city for fun, even though their are losing money in gas, they are not earning anything beyond the experience of a lovely afternoon, and so, they enjoy fully because there is no thought about earning money when going out for a car ride with friends.
Gambling should be seen in the same way, it would save so many people from suffering bitter experiences, in my opinion.
By the way: the chances of earning money while driving for fun are zero percent.
