It a wrong mindset to perceive gambling to be a profitable act, because by so doing you are placing yourself on the path to disappointment and more losses, because gambling should only be taken as a fun activity and not some form of an investment, so even though you become so lucky to have won several time, that still doesn't guarantee you to be successful in winning at all time and that mindset can really hurt your feelings when the unexpected loses hit you while gambling so for some level of sanity, you should avoid gambling with the sole aimed at making profits.
Anyway, I vote on the pull but even at that, my vote may not reflect the actual reality and may be different from the speculation of others here also.
Topic: [POLL] Are you in profit? - page 3. (Read 363 times)
I am the first YES to vote in the poll. I do not gamble excessively and only risk as little cash as possible which makes it easy for me to break even and get some profits. It does not really matter if I win or lose, I just enjoy placing predictions on sports I love watching.
Note that I calculated this off the top of my head, taking accounts my stakes on the different platforms I use, so it is not an actual answer after calculations.
I will advise not to use a color format to answer as it will make the thread look like a color-book and can be a distraction to readers.

Count me in, I voted for No, as well. It's really hard to image that anyone will be profit if we have been gambling for so long. The probability will be against us. And probably the question is why are people still gambling and making casino owners rich but continuing to play? I guess gambling will be part of the culture or it could be innate to some individuals and then casino's playing with our psychology. So definitely it will be negative for us, but most likely we will continue to gamble, whether for fun and entertainment purposes. We might win some money if we get lucky, but it doesn't come very often. So if we win, then just enjoy it. Maybe buy somethings for you or for your love one and then live to play another day.
I voted for NO.
Obviously, majority is on the losing end, unless we really hit some huge jackpot that might even up our loss. I remember one gambler though, he won a grand jackpot in a casino, however, he said that even though he won, he is still in the negative as he has been gambling since the mid 90's.
So overall, I don't think that someone will be in the positive if you have been playing for so long.

It looks like you forgot to lock your other thread @OP.
I vote NO.
I'm not in a condition that benefits from gambling but strangely, I still like gambling even though I lose. I consider that gambling is a pastime that uses money and I don't mind losing a few dollars gambling.
But if you intend to get big wins and lots of money from gambling, you will likely feel disappointed because gambling is not a place to make money.
You can gamble and have fun and after that, you have to leave the casino before you spend all the money.

Let me be the first to vote, and my vote is "NO." I've already clicked on the poll too.
By the way, I'm a bit confused about the format. Is it green for all the text of my reply when my answer is "YES" and red if "NO"?
I might edit my post later, but just to clarify, my answer is no. I'm not ashamed because, like many others, I believe most of us aren't really profitable in gambling. We're still here because we enjoy it and remain optimistic that one day we'll turn a profit.
I usually bet on sports and they say it's a skilled based game and we can be profitable, but not in my case yet.

I have noticed some individuals claiming to be successful in gambling.
but, my personal experience with online gambling platform over the past 8 months has been consistently unprofitable
I haven't broken even or made any gains. I'm curious if anyone in our community has actually achieved profitability through gambling. If yes, we can calculate that how much percentage of us are profitable.
I know most of the people pay to win and deposit to recover previous losses.
