Bitcoin Forum

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.

write in this format:

Most people gambling aren't exactly rolling in dough.  That's how casinos stay in business after all.  They've got the edge over us. 

I've heard the stories about people hitting it big, but those are the special cases in my opinion.  As for me? My online gambling escapades haven't exactly made me rich.  Probably just like you... But that's the gambling life, isn't it? Sometimes it feels like the luck's on your side, and then there are those days that make you question everything.

Ever think about calling it quits? Haha just messing around, of course.

The gambler posses the loss sometimes and gain sometimes,but the same was depend on the specific time.No one can say the certain gambler will do the loss all the time or gain all the time.The gambling site will provide the chance for the gambler to win and loss.So making loss or profit doesn't important one at the certain time,the gambler should wait like the vulture for the food.One day gambling will allow the gambler to win the big amount.So the gambler who survive in the market after the specific amount of the loss.The gambler would not share their loss in the gambling sites.Because their friend will make the fun on them.So when the time comes,the gambler will made the profit more then the loss money in the gambling sites.So at the time of the profit the gamblers can share to their friends.

I've also read some gamblers claiming to be successful in gambling, but I don't see any evidences they are really being. Everyone who I know is having more losses than winnings, and that is expected, since the house edge is against them on long term. There are few exception of successful gamblers and personally, I don't know any of them, although I'm sure they do exist. They are the jackpot and lottery winners who are lucky enough to hit a huge prize once in a lifetime. Every other average gamblers you are aware of, are just killing their time and having some fun betting, because in no way they are profiting from gambling on long term.

never bothered checking whether I'm on the green or in the red. Why? Cause I know that gambling is beneath me.

That's not to misconstrue, I gamble just like any other guy in this board, sometimes even more than some of you lol. It's just that, for me to be so invested about checking whether I'm on a net profit or net loss would require so much mental work that I could've invested on other important stuff, like actually looking for a job that could pay me. To circumvent the negative effects that not checking your winnings and gambling history could bring, I make sure to be disciplined and smart with my gambling decisions as always. I even employed (and I will die in this hill) this particular system where you stop gambling for the day after earning either 3 wins or 3 losses cumulatively. That's how I make sure I don't go off the deep end.

Although the house has the hedge there are gamblers that might have broken even and had profitable gambling life except that his profitable sets of gamblers in gambling their number aren't significant compared to the losing number of gamblers in other words we have a greater number of non profitable gamblers to profitable ones. To bother oneself on which side of the radar you fall in can be daunting it is like keeping the records for losses and winnings - but the question is to what purpose when you can't choose what will happen next win or a loss.

I am also curious to know how many successful gamblers are present on this forum.

I must admit that I am not a successful gambler. I have never been consistent in keeping track of my wins and losses, which has made it difficult for me to keep track of my progress. I have reduced the frequency of my gambling activities and only engage in them when it's necessary. This way, I can avoid losing more than I can afford and maintain a responsible gambling habit.

@OP profitability in gambling is define by how they control their gambling session.  How they are able to stop when they are winning and to be able to stop playing to cut their unlucky session.

So far I am still on break even, I could have been on a green if only I decided to stop when I am having a 3x to 4x win of my bankroll.  But alas, greed sometimes dominate me so I keep on playing until my bankroll got depleted.

I believe most of us here are in negative especially those who are playing without time limitation.


As I stated profitability is dictated by the decision to stop when winning.  Those who are able to win in gambling are those who are able to decide to quit the session and withdraw the winnings to come back again another day.

You are not alone on this.  There are thousands of people out there including me who have been consistent in gambling yet can't boldly say we have recorded one significant win or be made successful through gambling but this does not in any form indicate that there are no genuine persons who have become successful through gambling.

This set of people who are successful in gambling have years  of experience in that field, they study past records and current trends, including slight changes which aid them in making accurate or near-accurate predictions. While we emphasise on the fact that gambling is base on luck, we should also note that having vast knowledge and the right information at the right time helps to some extent.

In gambling, it is a norm that you loss more than you gain and this is the reason why it is advisable to see gambling as dun and only gamble with the amount of money that you can afford to lose. I have always gamble and sometimes I win and loss but I don't like thinking of my losses because it is something normal and as long as I enjoyed the entertainment, I am cool with it.

Most people that we hear about their wins, are just one sided people because most of them must have lost big but they wouldn't tell us this so that we don't see them as reckless gamblers. To be successful in gambling is not easy because gambling is based on luck.

Most gamblers are in the red. The only way for most to be in green is by betting once, winning, and quitting forever but what's the fun in that? Me personally, I would say i'm in the red, but I'm not betting a million dollars either.

The best way to profit IMO in gambling is via sportsbetting. I think if you research the teams and have solid info in front of you, you give yourself the best chance to profit consistently.

I have been gambling since ages, It's so hard to calculate the overall revenue. The question for me is do you enjoy gambling and spend a good time while gambling?
For me YES

I would like to share my latest experience in gambling that wasn't good at all, I play a lot of slots on weekly basis (weekends). However, I don't feel lucky anymore especially after changing the casino, now I'm kind of chasing my losses which is a very dumb idea and I don't recommend anyone to do that.
In conclusion, I don't feel that bad while gambling and losing while enjoying. So Yes again I'm in profit.

Yeah, It's super annoying hearing people brag about how much money they've made gambling.  But for most of us it's more like we just keep losing over and over lol. 

I also wonder if anyone here has actually managed to come out ahead in the long run? You always hear stories about people getting rich at the casino but I bet most people lose more than they win.  Thats been my experience at least! anyway if anyone has figured out a foolproof system, please share! I'm tired of wasting my money haha!

Pretty sure that im in RED

But i dont really care if im on this kind of level or condition yet i do only play for fun and the amounts that had been used would really be those amounts on which i do able to afford to lose.
Doesnt matter if i do lose as long i do find myself having those entertainment or enjoyment moment or period. Yes, losses  is more than winning but this is the truth in speaking about gambling thing.
You cant really be finding yourself to have assurance to be on positive and you would really be finding yourself that desperate on the time that you would really be that aiming for money.

I agree on some points that the only way that you could be having an advantage on winning isnt on casino based games but rather it would be on sports betting
on which you could really be able to increase your odds of winning if you are really that simply that knowledgeable on the choices that you are making.
We could really be able to apply any analysis on which basing up with some research on which it would be increasing out that kind of chance on hitting the right choice.
Aside from sports betting you could also deal up with some card games which are strategic ones too.

It should have been a poll if you wanna know the stats.  For me, I'm not in profit. Reckless bets because of aiming too high. If I have to calculate my loss, it might not be a very huge loss to decide to quit already. Its still good to keep it going. I win today the next day I lose, its the cycle that I'm in.

Gamblers show off only the bets that they won but don't know how much was lost.

Never profit from the casino because we will never win unless the croupier himself will survive with this business by continuing to be profitable, if calculated all then the percentage of losses is greater than the profit, so I never think that gambling to think of profit because we will not win, just gambling just for fun.

I never chase any losses in gambling, if you lose then it must be at the end of the day and return to play when the extra money is available again, the real thing is that gambling games are just for fun and don't expect too much for profit let alone expect your additional income then it will be difficult to achieve.

I will not do that format because I believe my gambling is in the red zone with many losses.

I don't think there are enough of them, and one of them might be on this forum, it's possible. Actually I think the point of view of successful gamblers can be divided into several things, I often hear that successful gamblers are those who can keep their gambling involvement very well and not too excessive, they only bring a logical and realistic mindset to each gambling session, and on the other hand there are also those who apparently consider that successful gamblers are those who always manage to get big wins consistently, I often hear both of these things.

I agree for the first point that I mentioned above, but for the second one it really doesn't make sense, how can they be so sure that there are successful gamblers who can always get big wins, while on the other hand the proven fact is that usually defeat is more common, because casinos will not be that easy to give them a win especially consistently, it's quite impossible. I think it doesn't hurt for you to check the number of wins and losses, it will be useful to remind you and provide information, if indeed the loss is greater then you should reduce your gambling, I see you have done that and it's good that you have chosen the right thing. Of course it's better to reduce your losses.

Well I am not writing in that format as the RED color would be imperative if I take into account the amount of years I have gambled,yet I have managed to be happy tonight playing my favorite slot Fish Eye,which I play with IDR and tonight I started with 10.000 IDR with min bet of 100 IDR and I am now over 100.000 IDR,it is a rare case for me yet it is true.

I am using my weekly bonus this time and never depositing again big amounts,only small amounts to entertain myself and to keep me going for hours like it is happening tonight with such small balance.As for in profit I need to hit max win with max bet and that would be the only way for me to forget all those reds.

Interesting, I myself if calculated in accumulated in total deposit and the benefits of my gambling is a difficult thing, because there are so many ways that I use to make deposits and also a lot of casinos that I play so far, but if it is felt, I think Feeling that if the nominal profits are calculated from gambling, it is certainly greater in my deposit than the benefits of the money I get from gambling.

But what might be some people looking for from gambling is a pleasure that cannot be converted with the nominal obtained from the casino, of course I feel lucky because so far I feel happy about the gambling that I do.


Yes

I think it all depends on the kind of games op is playing which could be the reason why he was not able to be making consistent profits as a gambler. I don't really know how those people that are always betting on Casino games make profits because I have tried playing many casinos games and I was never in profits. I think that might be based on strategy but It is not always do. Many casino games are not probably fair and that is why many gamblers would always complain that they keep making loses from gambling. It is good for op to check the kind of games he is betting on and now where he's making mistakes.

Don't stress yourself about that. Just be on your usual.

If you try to compute all your losses since the beginning of your gambling habit, it's obvious that you are at a loss, the same goes for the majority of gamblers. Just try to win every time you are in a gambling session on that day. In that way, you are just relaxed and focused to win on that particular session instead of having a goal to recover those previous losses since the beginning.

Surely, there are gamblers around who achieved profit and that was by maintaining win over losses which is actually possible in strategy-based gambling games and sports betting. It will take time though before reaching that stage where a gambler can keep up and maintain their continuous winning streak.

Can the gambling activities that I do provide personal benefits? And the answer is clearly "No"
Gambling will never give us any profit at all, unless we are really lucky. and the more often you gamble, the more you will lose.
but if the question is changed to, is this gambling fun? And my answer is "of course"
because if gambling cannot provide any pleasure, then those who lose in gambling will never return to gambling. And I think that when I want to gamble, I think it's like I'm going to go and enter a place, namely a "gaming place" where when I want to try one of the games there, I have to first spend money to pay for a ticket. And only after that will I be able to try the sensation and get pleasure from one particular game ride. And the same goes for gambling, where before we choose to play the type of gambling that we like, we have to spend money first to make a deposit, so that we can take part in the game and get the sensation and pleasure.

The most reliable way to find out if one is in profit will be to go through the records to see the ratio of wins to losses. Just a week ago, I sat down to calculate the amount I have lost and the number of wins from sport betting, I can tell you for a fact that its nothing to be happy about, averagely, I have the red side of the divide.

Although I don't invest what I can't afford to loose, I got bitter with the ratio as those funds, if channelled to buying coins, will have garnered more profits for me, especially in this bullrun era.

I think the problem lies within how you place your bets n d your picks, another has to be with your strategy and your risk movement, if you have all these in place properly I don't think you would be too unlucky such that you begin to think been profitable in gambling is not real enough.

Get a strategy on how you want to be placing your bet and your picks, and stick to it, I'm sure it will turn out in your favour after several trials but then if you just pick randomly by solely depending on luck, you will continually get the results you seen to be getting currently, sometimes if you know some one who's experienced enough a d gets lucky most often, if the person request you pay a token so you get his tips, I think it's a cool one so you don't loose too often.

Hey bro I will say I have also been in lost for the past 5 months I never made winning for long and this often happens to me whenever I bets on multiple games and it would always occurred to me that I will lost either the last match after all might have successfully played. Sometimes I began to wonder if actually I am being monitored overall and overtime been, its actually hard to have winning while betting on multiple game and I tried to go on single games but I still finds it very difficult to win and the matches always goes against me.

That's probably my situation. I don't control every penny, I don't write down every bet. I feel that I'm in the green, even if it's just a little bit.
What I understand as being profitable is all my money from gambling, including freebies, bonuses, money I got for testing sites and games. I was in the crypto gambling for a long time and often got a bonus in the form of an altcoin when casino was testing games based on that altcoin. Then I played for a bit, lost 10% of the coins I got, but the coin went up in price so eventually I had some free money - that's profit, even if I lost some of it. That's why it's very hard to say how much money I made from it, but I know I made some.

YES

I don’t know exactly how much I’m in the black, but I’m definitely in the black thanks to a couple of big wins that I was lucky enough to win. I play for fun, so I mostly bet small amounts and it’s unlikely that I will ever go into red. In addition, although I am too lazy to engage in bonus hunting or look for the most favorable odds, if I see an opportunity to get a boost or make a bet with profit, then I do it.

Winning is not that easy after all and that’s why I limit myself with Gambling since I know, its more about the losses than to actually make something out of it. If you are going to monitor your gambling activities make sure that you are ready for it because losses can make you stress especially with gambling. Just be more responsible and don’t expect too much in gambling because profit is not guaranteed here.

I have been privileged to gamble with small funds only and these few months have been very favorable. This year have gotten some wins that assisted me in meeting some basic needs. My answer will be YES  because my estimated wins exceed the money I have put into gambling.

From my observation, I think people talk about losses more than wins. Maybe they keep it secret to avoid unnecessary attention from friends, family, or even criminals. Most people I have seen who brag about wins do that to either promote the gambling firm or for other ulterior motives.

I haven’t hit a big profit for the past 7 months too and yes, I’m also in loss but this is ok because I gamble not for profit at all and I’m an occasional gambler as well. Gambling is not your way of making money honestly because your luck will not always be present and know that there are times when you can lose more especially if you lose your control. It is still good to monitor your activities in gambling and by doing this at least you can know if you are spending too much and you can just adjust your budget to avoid losing big in the long run.

Context:
NO

My personal experience this year has not been very good because I have experienced more defeats. But it was a loss I could accept. Even though it was a loss that didn't amount to hundreds of dollars, it was quite a loss for me. It makes me want to reduce the amount of losses again next year, and I hope I can actually reduce it even if it is only down by a few tens of dollars.

It is very difficult to break even in gambling because we can lose more than we win. And it's normal if you still can't reach that break-even point. All you need to do is stay within limits and only gamble with money you can afford. Don't chase if you have won. Always manage the use of the money. The rest, leave it to your luck and your skills.

I'm not really sure what the definition of success is in gambling. Is it when in our portfolio there are more wins than losses? Or a short win but a large amount? Or is it because you get very high profits from gambling? I think gambling is not something that can be used as a tool or way to provide income to become successful. but more like side activities to have fun. Meanwhile, if you continue to be dependent on gambling, it will be bad. So gambling is always risky, it's just that if you become successful and win a lot, it might be difficult. except for professionals.

What do we get from gambling apart from losses, where our money is wasted and our time is wasted in vain. And in return is a pleasure.

So there is nothing else that I get from gambling, apart from pleasure for myself. And when gambling has become part of my memories and also my hobby, then as much as possible I will set aside some of my income and spend a little of my time playing gambling. However, even though this is my personal pleasure, I always try to play within reasonable limits. Because if not, maybe a bigger loss will come my way.

You are not alone, if we're going to general everyone's experience we're on the losses right now and we're probably just doing it to forget the losses and keep going on and record a new start.

IMO even the professional gamblers, they've got larger losses but they forget about that the next day they win bigger profits. The idea here is that, as long as you can bear the losses you make, that's nice.

And if you're making a profit, make sure that you'll allocate that to something important so that it won't be taken back whenever you're about to loss. That's the point I guess for most of them that are wise enough and learned from their experiences.

You should open a poll or a thread in self-moderated mode and delete inappropriate answers because many people reply to your topic while they obviously don't want to answer your question. Some of them because they are ashamed to say they've lost or won money, some because they don't gamble but post for their campaign. Personally YES I think I'm currently in profit on the overall but the volatility is high at gambling so tomorrow I could be at loss.

It has never been an easy gambling experience at my end. Although profits do arrive, but it cant be compared to the losses that follows. If we begin to calculate it by the fact that the house still takes back everything we win in gambling. I don't think they'll be any significant number of members here who are on profits. Gamblers who have such profits are truly doing it professionally and have studied bit by bit how it works. Yet it doesn't stop them from losing big or stop us from dreaming for the huge profit day. It seems like all the losses we've got multiplied by 2. Reading through all the responses here, red color overtook the green color. The house is calculated in different ways. Some take 98 percent of all we've gambled, while the gamblers take 2%. Hence, we must be careful of the casino we play. If it's the type that offers player more percentage of winning. As we already accept that defeating the house is almost impossible. Unless we are somehow very calculative and dedicates our days in gambling as a way of resting.

Majority of us gamblers would probably be on the red which is to be expected as most gamblers tends to lose more than win more.
Personally, I'm on red on most of the platforms I've been on especially on dice games and casino games based gambling platforms. However on some platforms on green which I seldomly gamble on which are cards and sportbets platforms. But still, if you add all up with all my wins and loses, it's not even comparable to what I've already lost. I don't bet much but it accumulated throughout all my gambling sessions. Still with all this loses, it feels a lot better whenever I win.

or they don't know if they are in profit or loss because not many gamblers are keeping at how much they are spending and how much they are gaining. so actually it is hard to determine if you are still on the positive side after such duration of time. and if you are just an occasional gambler, it wouldn't matter if you win or lose with your bets, and so you don't actually keep a record of those amounts that you spent in gambling.
also, in what time periods are you referring to having such profits? ever since you are in gambling or just like the last couple of months or so? so this one is actually vague to determine.

Well, I think it will be your problem; for the past 8 months, you haven't gained any profit. Then I think you should stop gambling or take a rest for a certain time before it's too late, before you get more addicted and lose more money. And maybe you gained some profit but didn't notice. That's why it's important to keep records to track your losses and wins. I've been into gambling for quite some time, and so far I can say that I earn more than what I lose. For example, this month I allocated $200 to gamble, and by keeping track, I can see that I quite earned roughly $100+, which is a good profit. Maybe you just lack recording your spending, or maybe gambling is not for you, then better stop before it's too late. Maybe give your time some rest and, of course, your spending. Anyway, good luck if you still continue.

sorry for the loss you incurred. btw sorry, but the question you are asking is strictly personal, every gambler definitely has a fairly large percentage of losses, but many of them don't want to show it to the public, I also experienced several losses and several wins, but I didn't record them in a note because I'm sure it will be very difficult for me to accept that defeat. My advice, it's better and calmer if you gamble for entertainment, if you are looking for a stable income from gambling then that is very wrong.

You arent forced to tell on whats the exact numbers but actually if you do mentioned out the real numbers then whats next? People wont care. It turns out that gambling losses would really be just that typical or normal thing to experience in gambling field. Doesnt matter if you do lie or make some estimations or do say about real exact numbers which people
dont really care or mind off about it because we are all on the verge of losing money when we do play gambling on longer runs. Profit? This is something that we should not
mind to ourselves about having it because it would really be pushing you to play further because if you do see that you are in losses then it would be just normal
that you would be pushing yourself on playing further to at least break even or trying out to chase those losses simply.

It looked like I was in profit, but all of the sudden the losing streak began and I used to lose control. I don't know why this is happening, finally used to end with massive loss. Yesterday one of the worst day, was in profit of $500 and lost the amount. To recover what I've lost, deposited another $200 which is the final amount. I wasn't able to achieve what I target. Later ended with empty wallet, so we need to know when to stop and that'll make us stay on profit.
NO

I think it might be better if you put a poll so that we can vote instead of those colors.

Nevertheless, just like others, I'm into the negative as well. Just last night, went out with my friends and to go casino and I have a budget, I did bring some money, initial it was just up and down. But suddenly I'm on the losing streak and we all lost some money. Me? half of my capital was lost too, 50% of it. So I just went home with another half of the money that I brought in. Others might say that at least I didn't lose everything, but yeah, at least I enjoy with my friends, had a few drinks.

In gambling, i do not believe there are profits; in my opinion; when you gamble there are winnings and losses. The more you bet or gamble; the more you lose or win.
As a gambler; you should not calculate the % of your wins or losses. instead you should calculate your winnings against your staking power.

Does your winnings in gambling outperform your staking amount  ?
Do you  rake in more staking losses than winnings ?

Both answers determine if you are gambling right or not.

Exactly! Casinos are designed to have an edge, ensuring they stay profitable. While some may have those extraordinary wins, for many, it's a game of chance with varying outcomes. It's essential to approach gambling with an understanding of the odds and acknowledging that in the long run, if we tend to lose big time, the casinos win big time.

Anyway, am i in profit? No. Do i still bet? Yes haha but am i in debt? No

I'm a hobbyist and a seasonal gambler. And I have a terrible luck. So, yes I'm in loss.
I've been gambling online for the last 12 years and there were multiple of platforms, strategies and analysis I've done. Had many wins and loss but the thing that turned my balance sheet heavily towards red is rage betting. And I still believe that if proper research have been done, you stay strict to your gambling strategy, have a good enough bankroll and most importantly don't rage bet, you can have both of the thrill and profit while gambling.

I'm in loss. I was able to turn my $3 worth of Shiba got through bonus into $113 but I wasn't able to keep up the win continue. In one of the statment I came accross an user suggesting when you're able to multiple twice the capital you're on profit and make use of the winning. I could've followed it, and that's true when we go for big win we loss everything.

Without any doubt, I am still Red.
There are chances when I won I withdrew some funds but that is not enough to cover my previous losses especially after I became a VIP. It's like instead my chances get high to win, it became lower and it's been months now that I am not able to win a good amount that is decent enough to be withdrawn.

The sports betting thing though helps me to increase my funds so I think I am going to stick to that for now because the casino games won't even give me something that I could say I am a winner. I'd rather do analysis than wait for my luck to come which I don't think will happen soon.

I don't know what the exact answer is if we are in a position between profit and loss. I am in that position right now, I am no profit and no loss. I am prepare $500 to gambling in begining of year, I just play until last month, and my money still on $500. sometimes there are $200 left, and I play it again until I got $500 and stop it. And sometime I play it and got $1000, but afterward I loss again and leaving it again $500 on bankroll. it goes on continuously all this year.

after I read people's answers in this thread, it seems like people's experience more losses than profits, and yes, that's how gambling works, they run a business to make bigger profits and the people who are truly lucky in their gambling are only a few people out of the large number people who use gambling maybe the percentage is 2% of 100%.

my own answer is NO
I don't make a profit because I experience more losses but I can't calculate my losses for sure but what is clear is that I feel that the luck I get is not worth the money I have spent so far but I enjoy my gambling happily and not too much think about the money have lost and don't try to chase losses.

Long time profit, probably NO

But with my new experiment YES again.

Yesterday i wasn't because i crashed from very high, and tonight i quickly made it back. Now i am not sure what to do to grind some more. I know i don't have enough yet so i can cash out, i just need to make more. I have a system but i am not at all trusting my system. It's most likely all luck and i have been very lucky. This time i won't be leaving my bets playing over night just to see my loss on the morning.

I know it doesn't even matter but i guess i am little superstitious and i don't like to wake up broke if my system stops working again.

In that case I can say you're fortunate to at least maintain your initial capital. Because even you already lose before, you still managed to recover it back.

In my gambling journey, i'm not really in profit. This is also the main reason why I limit myself now on how often I gamble. And I also make sure that the funds that I will use is a throw away money, I mean that's what I can afford to live without. Well, in the past, it's not always about losses because there are times somehow that I got lucky to profit. But if I will calculate it all, well it's still in red.

I am in the red, but not for much I think, since I am rather a casual gambler who cannot put much at stake at the same time. I am not sure for what amount I am losing to casinos but I would not say it goes beyond a hundred or so.
I would say most of the people in this section of the forum is not having a profitable experience in casinos, and that is how it is supposed to work, isnt it? In the end, a majority of gamblers will experience losses, so the casino so cover its own operational costs and also increase their own bankroll in order to pay a lucky gamblers who happens to hit a jackpot.

Also, I would personally advice anyone who considers themselves to ve a successful gambler not to share the amount they have managed to earn, it is a common sense mistake to let others on the internet know about your wealth.

I haven't addicted myself that hard in gambling but so far I have profited up to $50 sportsbetting max. Moreover, as a student, I do not give much importance to gambling but try to avoid gambling as much as possible. I think that when I have enough time after my studies, maybe I can spend some time with gambling, but I will try to do whatever it takes to protect myself from the social ill effects of gambling. And the gambling profits I had up to that 50 dollars, then I stopped gambling.


YES anNO

Just 8 months you are complaining that you have not see any gain, I gamble more than 1 Year and some months before I succeeded to earn a huge amount of money that helps me to recover all my losses and, money don't dry in my bank account for gambling because I do gamble $4 daily and enjoying what am earning.

You don't need to worry, if you are not profit now but just have it in mind that some day you will achieve profit that will make you believe that gambling is good when you are not addicted to it, because the moment you are addicted to gambling, there is no way you will enjoy your profits because any money you save will be going to gambling and your target will be in billions which you will never achieve in gambling.

This is going to be difficult to absolutely answer or even get the answer because I am not sure that people are going to be keeping a record of their gambling wins or maybe there are gamblers out there that are keeping a record but it is a tedious process so I highly doubt there is anyone that can accurately say that they profit. Of course anyone can say that they have made a profit because they are still gambling now but if you really want the accurate answer to that question then a full history of your gambling activity will have to be listed to see if you have really profited from your gambling since the beginning.

there is no profit that you can get from gambling and this is a gambling business that profits the gambling owner who pays for the user losses with pleasure.

what I say is logical thinking and in fact that is gambling and I will never believe a gambler admits that he is a successful gambler unless he is a gambler who plays games that rely on skill such as poker which relies more on skill than luck and it all depends on how much his expertise in being able to get consecutive wins from the poker game and there are many examples of successful poker gamblers.

and the scenario I said would never believe in successful gamblers in gambling, especially slot games which are truly luck based as well as other games which have random numbers or depend on luck even in sports betting one still depends on luck because there are always surprises in every game.

I am sure from what I said some people will understand what I mean and I will answer "no"

It's quite challenging to believe someone who claims to be consistently profitable in gambling. Making consistent money in gambling has been an ongoing problem. When we talk about profit, it implies a long-term approach, considering it as a journey with income and expenses contributing to the overall profit. However, despite the belief that it's possible to be profitable in gambling, the reality is that most of us aren't.

Speaking for myself, I'm not among the savviest gamblers out there, so I'm not making a profit. I'm more on the side of covering expenses and having a bit of fun, you know.

Yes, take a look at my recent post. I have been very profitable by only placing matches I am 100% confident in.

Do we need to profit? LOL

Honestly, the most of us are not in profit if we are going to talk about it with gambling. But if we are going to talk about our profits with holding crypto, most of us will agree to say that we are in profit.

So, that is the statistics if you will take a poll here, the answer of the majority is negative.

Obviously I am on the RED, only professional gamblers and those that got lucky are on the green and there are many of those gamblers that eventually go from the green to the red, but this is to be expected as the odds are against us and very few have the skills to beat the casinos at their own games, however I do not think too much of it as even if I am on the red the amount I have lost gambling is not really significant and I can deal with it.

Right I forgotten about the poll, I added the poll now not need to make a sheet.
also it will be anonymous voting no one can know that they are in profit in gambling.
And discussion will be continued here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5474628.0

Wow, you've ignite my interest in checking out your posts. Honestly, I haven't come across many people boldly claiming they're super profitable in public. But if what you're saying is true, then I'm intrigued. Let's see, or maybe you'd like to share some strategies here?

+416k usd, that's a huge money man.

just creacted this month, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5473696.msg63172216#msg63172216

If you see a streamer or influencer always winning and being successful, you are trapped in their marketing. Isn't it often discussed in this forum that streamers and influencers collaborate with casinos so that what you only see are their wins and success stories, I personally never think about winning when gambling, let alone think about how to make a profit, let alone recover the money you have lost.

I understand the risk of gambling, namely losing a lot of money, so I will not think that I am wasting money by gambling, I always think that I am playing a fun game and I pay for it and then leave when I feel happy, so I don't think that I am making money from gambling , just thought I could relieve stress from work on the weekend by gambling, so don't expect you to make a profit  ;D

At the starting of cricket world cup season. I deposited 5$ in ball6 betting platform. Today is the ending of the cricket world cup season. This season I totally earn around 30$. My mainly intention was if I loss the 5$ amount then I will not deposit again. I play safely in this season I know the amount is to low but this is a part of gambling and I am in profit. I do every tile like this that's the reason when I faces losses that is not that much big amount.

It would be good if the OP (since he created the topic and is interested in this question) counted the number of answers and compiled statistics.
By the way, if we take into account not only the financial side, but also the pleasure that we get from gambling, the number of players who are in the black would be much greater than in the case when we take into account only finances. In my opinion, this is logical, because we don’t complain about cinemas because we spend money on tickets, but for some reason we complain about casinos  ;D

You're right. People tend to shout about their losses way more than their jackpots.  I bet it's 'cause there's tons more bum luck gamblers than high rollers.  Could be some sore losers even say bogus stuff like the games are fixed and  maybe they wanna trash the casinos rep, or even shake 'em down for money back after bad beats.

This is the opposite for me and that is not only online, but also in real life that people brag about their winnings while never mentioning their losses. I am really puzzled now that this is different for you guys? How is that possible because everyone I know would agree that most people hide their losses or make them smaller as they are, but when they win big there is this one huge story to be told and how this 20 multi-way bet was successful and bla bla.

First of... Gambling isn't a business you just go into with a 100% hopes of making profits, if that's how you see gambling then ylget ready to quite gambling sooner than you can imagine, because just like now, you might find out that you've really not been in luck and aren't making any profits yet, and when you see yourself like not making as much profit as youce anticipated after you've done your evaluations then the next thought would be to quit.

Gambling is a 50/50 thing, you get it or you don't, it's a two way thing, and one thing you must have in mind before entering into the gambling business, it's the fact that gambling was created and programmed to always be in favour of the casino majority of the time so if you feel like you're not winning most of the time then relax because that's how it's supposed to be. Sometimes you win, most times you loose, that's gambling for you bro. Then again, in all my years of gambling I've not heard there's a particular technique gamblers us in order to maintain a constant win, there are no hacks, just 100% luck, although in some cases you may be availed with materials and analytical tools that may aid you in coming up with a decision but it's still not certain the result would turn out positive.

Yeah there are people who became rich through gambling but it's still pure luck and majority are high riskers. Whether you're making profits or not isn't a big deal in gambling, you can either decide to quite or keep trying until the day it eventually favours you

Am I in profit?  From sports betting?  Yup, of course I'm not!  Lolol.  But I had that one year of having a good run at betting the EPL.  It was during 2017...  I thought I could do it as a side gig for extra cash but then the next couple of years I proceeded in giving back the books the money that I've won.  :D :D :D  So no.  Don't try to make sports betting as a form of 'work' kids.

It's fun tho cos it makes watching the matches more exciting.

This is very notable and important point that every gambler should have in mind at all time. Leaving with your winnings while you have them has always been a very tough decision to make in every gambler's life. You notice you've just made a x3 to x4 on your bank role which is a big win, enough for you to leave and celebrate your successful day of a good win but greed gets in and you want to make more profits lol and before you know, you're left with nothing but regrets. Another thing is knowing when to call it a quit. Some people never know when to call it a quit, not until they have nothing more to loose, a gambler should learn to set a limit for himself, and once you've reached that limit, walk away and don't go further because that's the point where you want to just recover your loses, the gain won't be your problem at that point, you just wanna take back your money and then you find yourself loosing more and more and more. Learn to set a limit and stick to that limit.

You don't ever do sports betting or gambling in general as a side gig, I've learned it the hard way  :'( . This is also the reason I've barely do sports betting as I know I'll be on the same place like my other friends where most of their profits are already gone. But, still with my continuous dice and casino games bets, I'm still on a red in overall of my gambling activity.

It's really fun and exciting especially when it's almost as tie match or your team is on the advantageous side but kinda depressing when it's almost a guaranteed lose.

Sorry to ask, have you been gambling for long or you just started online gambling recently? Do you play casino crypto games or you are strictly sportsbook man. The reason why I'm asking this is to give you the best answer to your problem and reason why you are losing since 8 months ago.

Just day before yesterday, I staked some amount and picked some basketball games, it was 6.25 odd and I lost 2 ticket, I did stake 3 actually. The ones I lost had more amount staked than the amount I lose but the smaller odd of 6.25 were actually randomly selected from the two long odd which I believe will come home and it did. Since then, I haven't played any again and the amount I made from that game help recover all my loss for this month of November.

What am I say, if you are gambling, stick to one of them and continue to improve your skills in them, with time you will master your way to win them. If you are a casino guy, learn first before you start playing and if you are sport guy, more experience will make you stand firm and don't forget to follow around some of this bets guys, they have experience in this and will tell you some of the mistakes they made in past which you should avoid.

You're not the only one I had a roller coaster ride in the past 3 months I won once and lost twice It has been going like this for the past three months since I am comfortable with my losses I do not have a hard time accepting my losses, it's just the way it was you have to take it and move on

We cannot stop gamblers from thinking that, because every session is a chance to win and recover your losses, I am also guilty of this but there's no harm in hoping and trying as long as you are not harmed mentally in case you fail to recover your losses, we have to accept the results whether in our favor or not, that's gambling.

I have been gambling for a long time and if I do the calculations, my losses will be high. But still I gamble because I enjoy it. Everyone comes to gambling for the profit and I am no exception but here I really enjoy the time between winning and losing. I think people who have high losses in gambling also enjoy it. Moreover, I don't think the number of people who are gambling and make profit  their amount is not high because those who I ask about their profit, they express the same thing as me, that they also lose. But it cannot be said that it will be the same for everyone. There are many who have won jackpots or big lottery wins, they can definitely make profit but nothing can be said certainly.

If more people who gamble confirms that they are in loss more than they are in profit then it is what it is. Gambling is basically to the profit of those who own the gambling houses or the casino. I don't know of a gambling house that has packed up especially offline or casinos who are not genuine but only wanted to scam people.

So with your experience, you are not the only one in losses but I will not continue for straight months without taking a break and probably coming back.

NO

If someone say yes it means they're either not a regular gambler or they're lying, not a regular gambler is someone who gamble mostly when there's an interesting promotion or quit after making money, which is understandable and that's fine.

Dude, do you even understand what you're saying? you're talk like you're in lose, then suddenly say you're in profit lol.

I'm one of those who lost money in gambling, isn't this a normal thing that we know?
So some people will experience more losses than wins so there is no need to worry about experiencing it because we will all experience this.

I myself never play continuously so this will damage the bankroll quickly, so come when you want fun and prepare the money that will be lost to play in the casino.

As far as I know and from my experience in gambling, there are two factors that are often suggested and occur to some gambling players.
* Winning and losing/profit and loss.
These two factors often occur, whether he is a great bettor or an ordinary gambler, that is the true fact.

But I personally have never calculated what percentage of profits and losses I have had, in essence these two things have happened, Basically I gamble just to look for experience and fun, profit is not the main thing and losses are the same, because I gamble without using my pocket money.

It seem the first to quell losses or limit losses in gambling is to conquer our greed,  to set and abide by a time limit we can only spend on gambling daily. It when we are out of control in this two factors that we fall into losses even after having winning session that we can leave with and be satisfied with for the day. But since there's no premeditated fix time limit we keep gambling till when we have nothing left to gamble with that's when we realize it's time to leave. How awful.


Yes, knowing when to stop and not parlaying with previous winnings in the prospect of doubling it increases our profitability margin.

I don't think most of the gamblers win, and I don't believe every person who says they win, and they don't have to convince me, but if they really win, it means they are very lucky. The purpose of casinos is to keep you online more and make you make mistakes. This is really hard to fight.

Finally, when I look at it from my perspective, I'm probably not making a profit, I've generally made a loss from the games I play, but I don't see this as a problem since I'm not gambling with the money I need and I'm just playing for fun.

I see it as money spent or lost only for entertainment purposes, so there is no problem, and when I earn money from time to time, it gives me extra pleasure.

If you’d be chasing profit day by day then expect nothing less than losing. Sometimes stopping the loss or setting a limit to oneself would generate profit. Imagine winning bigtime once and still betting huge the following days simply because of your drive of getting more than what you have won than to secure your win and let your chances do the gambling. The more you lose after a win, the bigger the drive you could have for that desire without knowing that your profit is slowly or if not quickly being consumed again, leaving you nothing but loss. Those who are now in profit are ones who know boundaries on their gambling activity. Acceptance of “it will not always be your day” is better than “You won once, you could win again”.

Trust me, even if you spend years in gambling there will always be time where you will question everything, that's gambling for you, and that's why I keep saying that it's not compulsory to gamble, when you have the money that you can afford to lose then you can gamble but losing is the most accurate thing in gambling.

I pity those who aims to make daily income from gambling, they won't know what will hit them hard, the moral lesson of this is that money can't be made easily, you need to exchange a demanding skill for you make money in return.

My gambling journey so far as been unprofitable, more like what you've experienced, but there are days where I get good rewards for gambling, and I just know that I haven't make enough to cover all the past money I've spent on gambling, I am less worried because I have been using what I can afford to lose.

This is the mindset that exists in those who have the wrong view of  gambling and also this is the cycle of addiction experienced by addicts, where there is absolutely no better choice they do, none other than because they cannot think logically and I think there is absolutely no consideration they do before deciding something. Therefore they always act out of control, basically a gambler who is addicted they can never reach the point of satisfaction in each gambling session, in fact when they win they will be greedy and when they lose they will be more curious, so there is absolutely no good choice that they have chosen in the condition of winning or losing.

Yes, that's good advice, basically if we've won it's better to secure the money and enjoy the winnings for other things, it's better because anyway all you want is victory, right? Therefore it is better to go to enjoy it immediately than to continue your gambling based on greed for bigger wins, you must understand that this is gambling where the final result is always unpredictable and maybe you also already know  that usually what often happens is defeat. On the other hand, in my opinion, a real win is a win that you can enjoy, and always set limits because that's the only thing that can help you.

Yup, however I'm primarily playing on fiat currency these days and only participate because they give free bets every day. I checked recently and am up roughly $700 over the lifetime of the account, just by being rather consistent. I also did matched betting a few years ago, when I was new to all the sportbooks and took advantage of many welcome offers. That would have netted me roughly $300 as well at the time for very little work involved. It takes quite a lot of discipline though and I can see how people can get sucked into the wrong side of gambling, where you end up chasing losses in a vicious downward spiral.

I haven’t played slots or poker for several months, but Casino 500 sent me a coupon for a bonus deposit. I thought for a long time about what to play - in the end I chose slots, and after spinning several times with a bet of 2 bucks, I ended up with result minus 30 dollars. Then I switched to the “red or black” roulette and played for another minus 10 dollars, I missed the color twice. And I’m trying to find the positives in this: I didn’t have a positive winning experience, and I don’t want to play anymore. And in some ways this is good.

I'd say it depends more on the platform and why they're on it in the first place.  On YouTube and Twitch for example, you get a ton of streamers bragging about their supposed big wins on gambling sites.  But really they just want more followers and clicks on their affiliate links. 

Whereas on forums and review websites, there are way more losers sharing their stories.  Thats 'cause those places don't let you post referral links and  the motivations are different - people are just venting their frustrations or trying to damage the casino's reputation.

It all comes down to the environment and intentions, I reckon.  Many folks exploit gamblers for popularity and money.

Most gamblers are always in red, just a few gamblers are constantly making profits in gambling, the rest are always losing. When you see some gamblers that do claim they are successful in gambling, most of them don't really make much money from it, but they keep on hiding it and making people feel they are successful. I am a gambler, and I know the amount I have lost is more than the amount I have won, but it's not affecting me in any way. At least I am getting the fun I need at a particular time, and I know the amount I am gambling with is not really what will affect me after losing.

Why give a format that people will use to post? Its gambling section, and I am sure no one will follow the format that you gave them. If you want people to follow the format, then make the thread a self-moderated one in which you should delete any post that didn't follow the format, and I don't think it's of any use following the format that you recommended people to follow.

That makes sense. In a discussion forum sharing about your losses and how they happened also makes sense when somebody comes up with this one "bullet-proof" strategy and you know it doesn't work and in a best case scenario you have a counter example. One of those examples is when people roll the dice and they think that it is impossible that "High" or "Low" comes like 20 times in a row. So many people tried this with doubling stakes and then go again, but the bank always wins due to the spread. But yes, all good points that you brought up here and the incentives and environments are the main drivers for people to either share their good or bad experiences.

I always apply positive things in every gambling win, withdraw profits and leave gambling to enjoy daily winnings, when you have withdrawn funds then that is the real profit you get from betting, the opinion of other gamblers says never follow greed to chase bigger profits if you don't want to completely lose the winnings you have obtained.

I haven't calculated my accumulated gambling history, but according to estimates I haven't gotten high profits from gambling, because I target low profits from daily bets and some bets also experience losses, but I minimize losses by only using half of the daily fund limit for gambling.

Yes usually when you play responsibly you won't have to complain when you lose because it won't be a serious lose that you will have as you can easily wake away and cut your loses. But the problem with gambling is when you don't have control of your emotion then you want to continue chasing and chasing but the casino can't give you the winning because you are chasing, you only making them have more money from you. So to that a break is the way to restart again and you may be lucky with renewed luck.

Profit in gambling is a stretch. If a player has started a lucky streak, he will bet and bet until the luck runs out. Therefore, if there is no deterrent or limiting factor, then we can not talk about profit, unfortunately

A lot of gamblers don't win but believe that they will win someday, and that belief has turned a lot of them into addicts. once another person wins it will now look as if they have been motivated to bet more, if they continue like that then where is the strategy then, gambling needs strategy because I read a post of someone winning using mathematics, and I noticed that is not always about luck but it also involves skill in a way.  even people who win are not always, they also record losses but will not want to disclose that, they always want to flaunt their winning. but bro let's tell the truth even if it is for fun we all have our eyes on that money, out of fun money is still involved just that it should not cross its limit.

It's been statistically proven that the amount of money that is spent daily in gambling is more than two times higher with the amount of money that gambling companies lose to winners but most gamblers doesn't know about this.
A lot of gamblers are absolutely ignorant of this and that's why they'll always want to win even when it's very difficult for them to win more than they lose in gambling. Gambling isn't a game that anyone can dictate the outcome but whatever happens, a gambler should know that it's either they lose or they win whenever they're gambling.

Are you in profit?

In this context what we are discussing is gambling. First, it is important to clarify what gambling you mean. I mean specifically, because there are many types of gambling bets. The point is that we can't possibly play all gambling games, in fact there will always be types of gambling games that we don't like or don't even understand. second, what type of gambling do you mean. because it is unlikely that someone will understand, even master all types of gambling, especially those related to several factors involving insight, knowledge, science, and the like which many people call expertise or skills.

Now we discuss profits, as is the theme of the title of this thread. Of course yes, and that applies to all gamblers. However, the problem depends on each gambler himself. Let me take an example, if you count from the first time you gambled until now. and you have experienced many defeats, losses and so on. Then, suddenly you are lucky to get half of the money you have lost because you lost. Would you still say it's still a loss, or...
and this is where most gamblers have different understandings. If so, it means you are chasing profits in the gambling you do. There's nothing wrong with that, it's just important for you to be aware of the consequences and risks of the consequences it causes. what is certain, you can win and become rich. or vice versa, you lose everything. There are many examples, in fact we often discuss them either from the side that lost a lot of money or from the side that gained wealth from gambling.

Now it's my turn, to be honest I never calculate the percentage of either wins or losses. the point is, I know that gambling contains risks. especially when it comes to pure games of luck. luckily I tend to like sports even though I don't always bet on them, there are times when I need other entertainment, namely slot games. But in sports, I can manage the bets I make.
Don't be greedy, to get 3 winning matches in a single bet, that's quite profitable. after all, we benefit from the many matches presented every week, take your time if you want to get the results you want and choose 1/2 of the many matches presented. provided that it has gone through a research and analysis process.

Well, now, the point is up to you, what you will do with your gambling.

I can't really tell how profitable I have been in the past since I usually don't calculate my profit and loss, but based on my eye gauge, I can really tell that I was not making a good thing out of it.
 
But for the past one week now that I have been trying out my luck on ring of fortune, wheel, and classic dice, I have been getting a lot of good returns, which I probably can't call my skill but just luck being on my side. Just yesterday I deposited about $0.98 in my local currency (about #1000), and at the end of the day I went home with approximately $11 if I got the conversion rate correctly. That has been going on since last week in lesser amounts. I don't gamble constantly, but these past few weeks have been blessed for me.

Context:

NO

I play for fun, and even if I tried to think about impossible things like making a profit with gambling, in practice (playing) I would lose and end up with losses, so it's useless and unproductive and not worth thinking about playing with the intention of having profit in gambling, when a person has this type of thinking, it is difficult for the person to accept defeats and loss of money and always focuses on putting more money into gambling and recovering the money they lost. I say this because I remember that when I started making sports bets I had a lot of illusions, thoughts like: I'm going to deposit

but strangely, when I thought about giving up and not making a bet for a long time, I made my last bets and won and with that I recovered all my money and left with a profit and stopped playing, years later I started playing again and there are times I win and times I lose, but looking at the statistics, I have a lot of losses, as I play just for fun, it doesn't hurt me. I also don't feel sad about my losses, I look at them as part of the game and my fun, I don't play using money that I can't afford to lose, I play in moderation and to keep myself in control I don't play all the time, there are many times when I don't place bets and limit myself to just following the results of the games

Predictions in gambling cannot be considered errors. The principle of gambling originally assumes setting probabilities that may go wrong or may be right. Since human thought is capable of anticipating multiple possibilities, gambling platforms bet on the error factor, which is probable and likely.
It is impossible for anyone to be able to predict the correct odds every time, and on this basis, gambling companies are always profitable. If we talk about sports betting, let alone electronic betting that has been programmed in advance.

In gambling there used to be lucky streaks before but now it seems every body has run out of them,very few times I have seen people hitting max wins lately while before this was a matter of the day,in different slot machines people used to hit the max win if not daily,at a minimum weekly,now this seems to have finished,don't know what the slot providers have done but their RTP is suddenly changing,so there is no more lucky streaks,only constant losing of money and yes profit is a distant thing now that we need a telescope to look at it,that is how far it has gone  ;D.

The current gambling outcome was   NO

But being the experienced gambler,I had huge hope in the gambling site.So the continuous loss was not the permanent loss in the gambling site.If the loss happened in the gambling site,it mean the god tell us to keep some wait for the next game to the gambling sites.The practice should be made by the gambler on the specific game compared to the random betting.The most of the gambler do this blunder by doing the random bet in the gambling sites.So being the gambler,it was essential to build the tactics for the game which you used to play for the many times or to your favourite game.The gambler should not get affected their mindset to the gambling losses,the loss can be recovered in the short period.

Would like to say the same thing on which we do only play for fun and even if you do know that you are at loss but well it doesnt matter as long you do play for fun and this is something very usual
that we do have or must have on personal basis  rather than on making yourself that hoping that much on making money with gambling because this is where desperation do comes from
until it would really be making you that getting derailed on what you should gonna supposed to do. Profit is really just that a bonus on the entertainment that you had able to get.
You wont really be able to make yourself experience problems of addiction if you do really just stick into the idea that you should really be just only playing for fun
and not to making it as a source of income on which usually most gamblers are really targeting into.

I don't even think about counting my profit and loss in gambling; maybe I should start giving it a try since I really don't expect anything big from it and I don't depend on it for survival.

I just don't think it was necessary for me to start thinking about how much I have made from it. Come to think of it, how much do I even spend on gambling on a daily basis? I can count that even without giving it a second thought, because I don't gamble on a regular basis.
 
Those who said they have made it through gambling, which I have seen a few of and have also read about a few of them too, which is their luck.

Everyone has something to focus on, and gambling is not just one of the things I see as a means of earning, so I don't give much attention to whether I make a little profit from it or not, but I will probably give it a few tries and see if it's worth the record and checking.

Yes, it's not bad, but unfortunately not all gamblers can do this even though they should do it like that, so maybe they won't lose a large amount of money. But before doing things like you said, there must be self-control first so that you can do what you said, because if they pull it and can't control themselves, they can go back to playing again and return to gambling at the same time because high curiosity makes them want to gamble again.

There are those who play using minimal funds but when they play their funds go up because of small wins gradually, a wise person or one who can control himself will withdraw his small winnings no matter how small the winnings he gets, while it is profitable it is better to withdraw it. And I think people who play like this are smart, with frequent play and always get small wins and also always withdraw them. So they are only looking for gambling capital again or for their snacks, so they don't pursue big wins with risks that can result in losing large amounts of money.

        -  The influencers or streamers who show that they win a lot of money gambling are really just bullshit, but they don't show anything that they actually cashed out of their account from the casino they are promoting. So I agree with what you said.

Also, I think a lot of gamblers today are doing the same thing you are doing when you gamble right now. Because that's what a responsible gambler should do in reality.

That absolutely true, but most gamblers don't think about it and especially those gamblers who are still relatively new, of course they really trust an influencer that they can always win, even in large amounts.
This kind of thing creates the desire to be able to get the same win or profit, but in reality, when gamblers try to get the same thing, they end up experiencing bad luck with various losses.

But there are still many gamblers who come to look for number of benefits, not just to look for fun and leave when they get it.
Just look at the many cases where gambler tries to recover his losses or really chases his winnings until they spend more money isn't this an attitude of someone who cannot use gambling properly.
It little surprising but there are still so many people doing this kind of thing.

I can without a doubt say ==> NO

We know the old saying that says, if you continue gambling, then the house will eventually win..... well, that is applicable to me. I had won a few Jackpots in the past and it had kept me going for a few years, but over time.. I lost more than what I gained.  :P

We know casinos let's you win small amounts ....just to keep you gambling and there are a small amount of people that are winning those big amounts, but they are scarce.

We feel like that hamster in the wheel.... running but getting nowhere.  ::) ::) ::)

I can say that I was in a profitable situation, but it all happened because I was actively playing when there was a promotion from one of the casinos which at that time was my favorite and after that I decided to reduce my gambling activities because I was busy so it was difficult to have free time to play because I was not typical who gamble in between other activities, and I can say that if I continued to actively gamble with the same portion some time ago, perhaps I would also be in the same situation as you because gambling to make a profit is not an easy thing, and all gamblers certainly know this because gambling is indeed not to make money even though there are those who can do it but there are more who are not able to do it.

Zilch, nada, zero, no profit.  :)
It is no longer a secret that the most of us are dwelling in losses. Whether we started late or not in gambling, that is for sure that we are all in losses. And to those that admitted that they are in profit, how much losses they have acquired first before they can say that they are in profit? That is a question that plays on my mind or they have already abandoned their record of losses and all they want to acknowledge is their profits. Because with everyone based on what they are saying, it is all about the losses that they have made. And  if it is not just all about boasting, they are doing a great job for retaining their losses and maintaining their profits ratio and winning accuracy but it is a fact that is hard to maintain.

I think all gamblers should remember the saying you said, so as not to gamble excessively which will make them trouble themselves because of the bad effects of gambling.
And it is common to lose more than you earn, most gamblers experience that, the bookies successfully drain the finances of the players who eventually become addicted to playing gambling.

The small winnings that casinos provide are just a withdrawal technique for players so that they continue to gamble without thinking about their losses, and with small wins it makes them more confident to get big wins that will change their lives like people who are successful with gambling. I think gambling involves luck, and people who are successful in gambling can also be those who gamble with limits and wisely but because they are lucky so they get a big jackpot.

Gambling depends entirely on luck and experience. Because currently I myself have been in the red color for the past few days. I just won a few bets in gambling games and then won't win for a few days. But I faced many losses hoping to hit the jackpot but somehow my forehead was not good. And I can't take a break from praying for the last time just moaning at the loss. So I think with good luck and experience it is possible to win at gambling for some time.

I am currently facing a loss because I paid so many dollars to win the jackpot, but by no means did I have the jackpot on my forehead.

It’s hard for me to give a Yes/No answer here, because I have been gambling for many years now and didn’t always keep track of my gambling spending. Now looking back across online and physical gambling I would say that I am probably made a loss. I had a terrible night in Las Vegas 5 years ago where I gambled completely drunk and lost more than 1000 USD. Trying to recover such big losses takes a long time and there were other bad nights with losses. Only for the last two years I keep better track of my gambling spending. This year I am definitely up overall with my gambling balance, because I won a decent poker Sit’n’Go tournament.  Accumulating all profits across all different type of casino games and sports betting can be a bit misleading. Also including new bonuses in our calculation can seem than we are more profitable than our strategies actually are. If I had the time, I would like to break down my gambling career across all the different games and see where I lost and won the most money. Unfortunately, I don’t have the data for such a detailed analysis and also it’s a bit time consuming going so far back.

In fact, apart from bookies or gambling platform owners, we hardly find anyone who can be successful from gambling, let alone online gambling. Logically, if it is true that playing gambling can make someone successful, perhaps everyone will definitely prefer gambling rather than earning an income through hard work. However, sometimes we have seen in the media that there are people who get rich from gambling, but most likely that person has big luck and of course luck will not come forever so if he continues to gamble then slowly he will also experience losing everything.
Gambling is not a place to earn income but only to have fun in your free time.

Become successful in gambling? I believe that gambling is all about luck. I have been gambling for more than a year, not even months, and I haven't been the lucky one yet. I used to gamble on Sportybet, where it can at times be even harder to win for me. Because of this, I have stopped thinking about becoming a successful gambler. Since I have know myself, I have never seen someone claim to have achieved success in life through gambling and to have given up gambling. I believe that it is difficult to succeed in gambling, and I have yet to meet someone who can honestly claim to have done so. This implies that the individual will never experience going broke again. Gambling only give a win to some problems for a times, if you are still lucky; recovering past losses are very difficult and will continue to lose if care is not taken.

If you ask people about their profitability after playing gambling games, you will barely see anyone saying that they have been gambling for a long time and are still profitable because that is not possible unless the person is extremely lucky and manages to get a big win before they have lost the amount they have won in the last big win they had and that's extremely rare. So, as expected, I'm at a loss and I don't keep a count for that because I don't gamble for money and just for fun.

Sports bettors who have experience and knowledge about specific sports can be profitable in the long run if they know how they should make their bets and how to manage the winning and losing odds along with their base bets so that they stay profitable in the long run. That's why sports betting is better than gambling games.

There is no profit gain from gambling other than enjoying the moment while you lose a huge amount and win some. Because it is undeniable that in gambling we often lose rather than win, yet having a good experience will somehow give us a reason why we keep on gambling even if we lose more. If we assume that all gamblers are in profit, these casino operators will file for bankruptcy but they don't as they are into making money rather than letting these gambler wins more than what they can make.

Imho it is rather hard to calculate if I am in profit, because I barely remember my winnings, as I either gamble them, or withdraw and spent quickly and stupidly :D But I am, and I think a lot of here also, remember mostly their losses. I am trying to say, that we can be in profit, win often, but we remember clearly how we lost. I general I think I am in profit, but I dont know how much I am in +

We all know that gambling is a risky activity and it's not a reliable way to make money and even people who claim to be successful gamblers are actually just lucky and some of them may be using tricks or strategies that don't work in the long run. Despite that we are not gambling to become rich or make it a source of income, staying over eight months without a cent profit while you experienced consistent lose is very discouraging no matter the level of joy and fun you derived in playing gambling. When you are playing and you gain but the casino collect it back again is understandable and the fun will continue but using your own funds to keep playing despite the consistent unprofitable experience is not advisable and the only one option here to consider is to stop gambling altogether and focus on your financial goals.

.

It is better that way, easier for you not to know whether you are in the red or green. So there will be no reason for you to chase losses or feel pressured to get more wins over the casino. You sound like a responsible gambler so far, so I assume you try to focus in the fun and not on the  unrealized profits wlhich you could have had if you ",just continued to play*.
If you happened to have a detailed register of all your sessions (like some gamblers do) you would feel more need to play and take some of the money you loss back. It has been stated before that  the house always wins in the end and neither you and I are the exceptions to that rule

Keep it fun and let go those satoshis you wager.

In general, I agree, but there are many exceptions - for example, someone who once won the jackpot and after that did not increase the size of his bet and the duration of the sessions. He can remain in the black for a very long time. And there are also professional bonus hunters, seekers of guaranteed bets, vulnerabilities, etc. They are also in the black, although this is a “special” type of gambling.


It seems to me that he meant that he was satisfied with a small loss of money for the pleasure he received. A typical situation is when both the buyer and the seller believe that they have made a good deal.

YES

This is because I dont gamble with the money, but I invest the money on the casino bankroll. Its like a savings account or a fixed deposit that you lock up and keep away from a year or so and when you are back you find yourself with a 10-20% profit. You could argue that one can do a 1.10x or a 1.20x on a casino and get the same in a couple of rolls, but again the second one carries a large risk on losing the money as well, which in bankroll investments on the long run does not have.

It takes patience and commitment to hold for long in order to do this but I have done this on many casinos and its worth it.

Simple men, If you are not rich yet then you are in loss.  ;D

Seriously, It’s really hard to calculate your total profit/loss since you start gambling because you probably use different currencies that already change value a lot by the time you are playing.

But I’m sure you will remember your biggest lose and wins which you can use as reference to tally what’s your final output. This is what I’m doing to determine my current stats on gambling.

One thing we must know is that Whomever that is ready to gamble should be more ready for loses because gambling is more Of losing one's money than making profits, let say if you gamble through out the year there is every possibility and likelihood that you would only win once or twice in a year this is based on if you are a regular gambler. But irregular gambler may not have that chances to win even single in a year because it's said the more you gamble the more closer one becomes to winning.

I am very much in the Red area when it comes to my overall profitability in gambling, and I will be completely damned to say otherwise.

Though I've learnt to consider this not a big problem actually, since overall, my loses in gambling have not affected my finances in any notable or noticeable way, I try as much as possible to only play gambling with an amount of money I know I can comfortably lose, and this 99 percent of the time always involves very tiny amounts of money like between $0.5 cents to $10, and sometimes, I only lose this amount once or twice in a week, or at most, 3 times.

So, even if I haven't made any profit in gambling generally, my loses doe not have any noticeable negative impact or effects on my finances.

At least for me now, it's no use calculating profits and losses. Let me tell you a little about my experience, if I calculate how much I lost due to gambling, especially in the past. I don't know how much money I spent at the gambling table, it's definitely not a small amount. Well, now the question actually contradicts the title of this thread. Do I have to calculate past losses even if they happened a decade ago? and now, I am involved in crypto casino gambling. Long story short, before I didn't have a greater understanding of gambling, what responsibility was and what self-control was. The point is, I act as I please to carry out gambling sessions. as a result, do I make a profit? It's clear, the answer is not at all.

Now, I am involved in the world of crypto casinos. however, after going through various processes, experiences and so on. I have a slightly more extensive understanding of gambling itself, which brings responsibility along with self-control. Apart from that, the importance of knowledge for me. especially sports gambling. I have to know the various aspects related to it, as well as other variables. why, the answer is simple, which gambler wants to always lose in his gambling, 99% will answer no. Therefore, what should we do so as not to experience defeat? knowledge and science are needed, so that we can think as we should. then the question is, do you make a profit? refer to this thread. The answer is very varied, depending on how we think. If we sum it up as a whole, almost most will answer no. then, why still gamble?, if it's really detrimental.

For me it's simple, yesterday is the past, today is what we live, tomorrow is a mystery. Likewise with gambling, we cannot predict when we will get a profit, let alone a jackpot. Today I lost, tomorrow maybe not. This hour I win, the next minute nothing is certain. The point is, it depends on how we treat gambling itself. if you lose, you should stop. because it's no longer fun. On the other hand, if we win, there is still tomorrow, we can have fun with it. So, I don't need to calculate profit and loss for now, let alone question whether I made a profit. the answer, not certain and not important for most people, is as simple as that.

Anyway, everyone has their own way of thinking and opinions. what I say, not necessarily people will agree.

That's right, those gamblers who say that they often win probably either have a gambling addiction or they often gamble too. Then we should also be ready when gambling; we can't just hang around and watch. We must have dedicated money to play games here at the casino we will enter online.

I rarely play gambling, so I rarely win, but even if I play only once, there are times when I win immediately at the casino. I play online, and then I win around 20–30 dollars. I immediately cashed out the money I won.

In fact, gambling provides more losses than profits, and we must also be prepared to lose money in gambling if we participate in this activity.
The more often you gamble, the more often you experience losses. It is impossible for the casino to provide a profit if the gambler carries out the activity too often. In fact, the casino feels happy for the gambler to spend his money to continue gambling. doing it once in a while will bring you closer to profits if you can use it by using the skills you have or using strategies used by people's who are successfull in gambling.


yes, that's why gambling games are called games of chance, not necessarily those who gamble continuously can get lucky because the level of winning is obtained randomly. We must have heard of someone who won a large gambling amount even though they bet a small amount so we can judge that gambling does not necessarily give us hope of winning even though we have spent a lot of money gambling.

Your attitude of immediately stopping after winning, whatever the result, is indeed the correct attitude and should be done by other gamblers so that you don't lose back the money you have earned in gambling and don't get too carried away when you win, control yourself so you don't continue gambling. .

Even tho after winning big we sometimes do bet again and hope to win another big amount again.  Tho I actually see people profit from user stat in bitvest but I dont know for how long this gonna last

The percentage of winners in gambling is lower than those who lose, you may be one of the people who are unlucky in gambling, including me and several other people who have commented here. This scheme has always been and always will be like this because this is how the casino maintains its business. Imagine if the number of people who win is greater than those who lose, how the casino pays its employees' salaries, taxes, electricity and other accommodation costs.

We always hear or even pass by people who have just won big wins, this incident is only a small part compared to those who lose. lucky and unlucky can approach anyone in gambling, sometimes you feel curious about a big win so you want to keep playing even though the chance is very small.

If we talk about long term, there are no winners in gambling, if we understand casino games as such. After so much time in the forum and visiting this section I see that there are a lot of people who do not understand such simple concepts as House Edge or Expected Value. In casino games you can come out a winner one session, or several, winner in the short term, but the bigger the sample, the more times you play, the loss of money with respect to the money wagered becomes inexorable.

I am in long term profit but because I mainly play poker and there is no House Edge. On the other hand, I can make plays with positive expected value.

Nobody can predict his profits in the gambling center, because it can come to today to win big in your betting but if you are not careful you can spend everything to gambling without going home with something which is the mind set of some gamblers in the community. Once I win big in my gambling at the moment, that is the end of gamble on that day until the following day before I will gamble again which it will allow me to have a good plan for the one I won to use the money wisely. If you are good in gambling you can last in some years in profits making but the amount of the profits will not remain the same like the way some people use to receive the same amount in their working place through out their living in that organization.

I don't really pay attention to whether my gambling activities are profitable or not, but from the calculations I did on my deposits and withdrawals I can say that it was a little profitable, so yeah I can say YES my gambling activities are profitable even though not too much. I don't know whether my luck is good or not, because the type of game I play is slots and there is no strategy whatsoever, I just play for entertainment and that's it, not to chase profit or anything, just pure entertainment.

Like most gamblers who can't give an answer about feeling rich in gambling games, I also experienced the same fate. Not everyone gambles not to make money, but there are some gamblers who hope to make money from gambling, even if it's small, even though in reality gambling doesn't really make money.

Gambling will not give players a great opportunity to frequently press the withdrawal button even though they have made a lot of deposits because the main aim of the gambling system is that they are always in a profitable position to be able to survive for years.
When I and other gamblers know the gambling system, why not stop gambling? the answer is that I and most people think that gambling will not give you wealth.

Yes that's right, the losses experienced by players tend to be greater than the winnings obtained. And you can be sure that it will also be difficult to get a win that is said to be "promising" like the advertisements that are widely posted on every gambling site, even though it is only an attractant for people to play on the site. Because casinos are also created to make money, not to double money after all if they get a profitable win it's just a bonus given by the casino to the players, and as you said the casino feels happy if the gamblers spend their money to continue gambling.
But is there really an accurate strategy to get a win?
As you said, "using strategies used by people who are successful in gambling". I thought gambling was just about luck, but if there really is an accurate strategy there shouldn't be many people who lose money in gambling. Maybe using the strategies used by successful people can minimize losses and can bring victory easily, but are those who are successful apart from the luck that brings them to success by gambling?


If they play with the aim of doubling their money, of course they will spend more money because of the losses they will always get than the wins they will get. If you are lucky, by betting a small amount you will get a big win, and vice versa, no matter how big the amount bet will not guarantee an easy win if you are not lucky, in the end you will still lose or run out.

It is true, they should stop when they get a win, so as not to experience greater losses, but unfortunately not all gamblers can do this, many of them follow their own emotions when playing so that they experience large or large losses.

In the beginning of gambling I lost a lot of money but now by changing my gambling strategy I am very successful in gambling and if I consider the profit and loss of the last six months my profit is more than my loss. That is, I can say according to the statistics of the last six months that I have gained money by gambling compared to losing money. In the beginning I was very much addicted to gambling and gambling was a big thing for me but I didn't think about how I would be successful in gambling. Later when I realized my mistakes and after realizing those mistakes I made some changes in my gambling strategy and when I caught those changes I became successful in gambling till now. I think my technique will improve in the coming days but never worse.

it's amazing you are making profits from gambling, this activity come out deadly for many people.
do you play provably fair games, live casino games, or bet on sports? from which games you are able to make profit?
and you said you changed your strategy, is it strategy like we play on autobet type or you are saying strategy to your actions like playing some games which you know, how to control mind while losing, etc.
we need your tips and tricks so we can win too.

I can claim myself as a successful gambler on the gambling platform. Because I deposited 0.749 mBTC before the start of ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. I won every bet because I was a bit experienced about the sport. I have won every match I bet on this World Cup and made 2.0368 mBTC from 0.749 mBTC. But I didn't want to take too much risk so I withdrew all my funds. Currently I am on a complete break from gambling platforms. I will participate in betting again when the sport starts.

When people play gamble and all they can have as a result is lose, the best thing is either to give a break or reduce the rate at which gambling is played.  Consistent playing of gambling and when the result still comes out as lose is not the best, it is a strategy of losing money .

 When people keeps losing consistently in gambling it means something is not going well, at this point it is to have a break to check what could be the problem of the constant lose. Most times one of the reasons for steady lose is gambling could be lack of understanding,  people just come into gambling just because they want to make money quick, but when the result of lose is becoming much the best thing is to just have a break to stop wasting money.

Maybe I'm luckier than you, but I stopped playing for a long time when I lost a lot. When I first started playing, I didn't understand anything about gambling, and now I know a little bit. Perhaps knowledge of gambling also accounts for a higher winning rate. I don't know if I will continue. I will lose all the rewards I have, or if I will get more.
But now I feel very comfortable gambling. A good mood will help me win more. I won't stop gambling. Whether I win or lose, it's fun.

If your gambling experience is unprofitable keep gambling for fun, you will be profitable when you don't expect it, that's why it's important to set limit for yourself, always use entertainment money for gambling only and move on with your life goals, gambling might not be profitable for you now but your luck will come someday, and they only way you can get to see such day is by risking only what you can afford to lose.

What I can't seem to wrap my head about in gambling is that even if you keep winning right now since you won't stop to gamble it's possible that you will lose for a long period of time that will make you feel like you've lost all your win back to casino again, if gambling is winning and quitting then I can say that it's true profit but you continue to gamble looks like you aren't a true winner until you win and stop.

From my own gambling experience I have some days and most times losing days, I won some money week ago that's enough to cover 6 weeks of gambling if I choose to do so, and with what I have lost in the past I believe that I did very well, but I got to see this profit because I don't give up and the reason why I don't give up is because of the tinny amount that I risk on gambling, it's not close enough to make me feel regrettable when I lose the amount.

If you look at your experience, it seems that 99% of people experience huge losses with their money spent on gambling if you look back from the beginning of their gambling until now that they are still gambling, and 1% of people who benefit from gambling, even though they have been gambling for a long time, but the benefits they get are unlikely to be large and not equivalent to the losses they have felt from the beginning they joined gambling. Many people gamble as they please, and I think that's a natural thing. Because the money used in gambling is also their own, so there is nothing wrong with it, even though in the end it is losing and there is also the possibility of losing a lot instead of winning. 
Apart from that, casinos or bookies do not want to get losses, so as much as possible they will make players spend their money on gambling. Because basically, the bookie is happy with players who spend their money on gambling because it is profitable for the bookie, but what happens to the players?
 it's their own risk of being deceived by the guarantee of easy wins. So it is natural that gamblers get more losses from the beginning of their gambling.

Of course, there are many aspects that must be studied in order to reduce losses or risks, so that perhaps you can get profits more often, even if they are small. But that's not a problem, as long as it's profitable you can continue doing it, but if you continue to experience losses, please don't continue, it's better to try other things that can be profitable with risks that aren't too high or risks that are easy to deal with with solutions that are easy to get too.
All gamblers want big wins, especially those who think they can get rich quickly by gambling. say 100% all gamblers want big profits, including people who gamble wisely, even if they gamble with good limits and self-control, they definitely also want big, profitable wins. What I saw was that there were so many letters that answered "No", that they were still gambling, perhaps because they were still holding out hope for a big win to be won. But I don't know, I'm just guessing, besides, even if they are asked, most of them will answer with a lie, because someone who is addicted tends to be embarrassed by admitting that they are addicted to gambling.

It is difficult to predict gambling to benefit easily even if he has been gambling for a long time or let's call me experienced and can be said to be professional. I think someone who insists on getting a big win or jackpot will not easily get a big win, so do you mean there is a matter of luck?
It's true what you said, when they lose they should stop, but what I know is the fact that when they lose, instead of stopping, they will get upset and go back to gambling with the aim of reversing the loss they felt. It is unethical to gamble by calculating profit and loss, because basically gambling is only for entertainment not for profit, even if you get profit it is only a bonus.
True, everyone has their own right to choose what they want. Because they also have their own thoughts so they themselves will determine what is good for them and what should be avoided. All back to themselves who will determine the future.

You don't have to be rich in gambling to be in profit, there are people who gamble well and make consistent money but the profits are only little to make them rich. From what I read with @TopTort777's post, I could say that he is enjoying his gambling lifestyle as a true loser would not think twice to conclude that he is losing when he knows that he is a loser in streaks. The same thing goes for gainers too, both do not need to know the actual figures of their winnings or losses before they can get a quick glimpse of what their gambling life is whether is progress or regress. The currency conversion is also a far too much approach that might not be necessary since someone who has dealt with more than 20 casinos in the past 10 years would not be going through all that stress.

In my case, I know my limits and strengths in gambling, if it's to be the casino, then I must say that I am in losses, and this is the reason why I often deposit a low amount when betting on casinos. But for sports betting, I can proudly say that I am a gainer. So, these are not far-fetched.

First of all I don't gamble much in online casinos but I mostly bet on different sports. Earlier I placed one bet without considering the profit and loss and some bets I placed without understanding due to which I lost most of the bets earlier. I have mentioned some strategy changes in betting that strategy is that I now bet on the match where one team is much stronger than the other team. When one team is much stronger than the other, the stronger team will have a better chance of winning the match and I use this strategy in every betting. I have a good understanding of football cricket and using that understanding I am trying to make good bets and my profit is more if I calculate the profit and loss. If you have enough knowledge about football or cricket or other sports then you should follow this strategy hope you will succeed.

Betting is still gambling, it is really just that having the different thing considering that luck based and strategic based are really that totally different. There are really just those people who are really that having some interest on playing luck based or both or whatsoever. In speaking about profits then it would really vary because pretty sure that most of us would really be on negative
because we do know that house do always win but there are some bettors who are really that in positive. There's no way on determining the stats but pretty sure that there are still those gamblers who are profitable and majority is really that on losing side. In my case then im really that definitely on negative.

Play for fun and this is the most important thing, you wont really be that stressing yourself on how much you do lose and how much you do win if you are really just that enjoying the game.
You are really just that basically paying up for the fun and winning is really just that a bonus.

I don't keep records on how much I have wasted on gambling but I do know that I am not a winner when it comes to gambling, I have noticed that I use to lose more money than I have ever win, and even reading gamblers reviews online I have notice that many people lose money in gambling and only handful of people win in gambling, if this doesn't tel you that gambling isn't for money making I don't know what could.

If your main goal is not fun you will be disappointed with gambling, that's why using gambling as your source of income is so wrong, it's better to look into something else, gambling only make sense if you are doing it for fun and with small money, the probability of you losing almost every thing in gambling is high.

As easy as gambling sounds to majority of gamblers in the world today, I declared that gambling is the most hardest way of making money, you don't know what you will get and the only part that's certain is losing money over and over.

Well I agree with your statement that before they gamble then they at least already know about any risks that will occur, especially defeat, yes I understand that there are chances of winning in gambling but do you know why many gamblers have a lot of losing streaks? yes it's because gambling is a business for casinos which means that their priority is the profit they get from losing gamblers, that's a very reasonable reason. Therefore, of course, as you said, you should be more prepared to lose than win, because what happens more often is losing than winning only occasionally.

Therefore you have to accept the fact that gambling is nothing more than a game of chance, which is why people always advise that you don't overdo it when gambling because it will only make the situation worse. The more you gamble the closer your chances of winning, that's reasonable enough, but you're gambling with money aren't you? And please calculate how much money you've lost, if you can win more than the amount you've lost then maybe you're lucky but it's very difficult to achieve a win of that size to cover everything you've lost.

No that's not your real intention there, but it is to have fun because you are only playing with a small amount and then once you lose this you will never re-deposit again. But then you said you are playing safely? I guess you have changed your gameplay now? Now that you already reached that far (profit). That's great. Now that the season have ended, I hope you will also end your session and withdraw all of that winnings.

The amount or the winning is low, that is because your starting capital was also low/small, although you can also play in high odds game if you want to win a little higher. They are only riskier though. But, don't worry as the amounts involved are still high for a poor gambler.

Everyone has their own luck, some are very lucky and some are unlucky by always losing even dominating in each of their sessions, and of course the point is that this is gambling where all the final sessions will depend on how lucky you are at that time, so in terms of luck you will not be able to force that luck to come in a row at each of your gambling, if you are too imposing or don't believe then just try to gamble as often as possible then surely what happens is not profit but even greater defeat. This is why there is no reason for anyone to overdo it, let alone gamble with the intention of earning, it is very dangerous and not recommended.

Gambling and its systems are created by casinos and with that it is ridiculous if you want to fight the casino algorithm by wanting a lot of winnings, I think that assumption is very wrong, this is a business for casinos so maybe you also already know that from five tries for example you might only get one win or not at all.

That's right, don't overdo it and it's better to gamble just for fun or to fill your empty time, don't have high hopes because winning is nothing more than a gift, you have to be strict with the concept of real gambling.

It's very hard for gambler to start flashing back to their lost and also starts calculating the amount of money they have spent so far while gambling if we (they) then people will be discouraged from gambling that is why you are people continuing to gamble without even looking at their lost rather all their focused is what they would achieved even they tends to lose higher than want they what win.

Most people also have sets some targets for themselves to know if they could hit a specific amount and if they do you see that they space gambling and utilize themselves with what have gained so far while others sees it as an avenue to stake and increase their wager to win higher amount without knowing revenge gambling is always dangerous.

Like you said.... "A lot of people individuals claims to be successful in gambling" so if I was you who had got the unsucceeded and unprofitted gambling experiences for over 08 Months, I wouldn't be interested to know how many percent of persons who has been on the winning table but interested to gain courage or advice if you have to continue or quit probably you gambles to make profits but fun are applied maybe as a caused of your inexperienced or lack of skills or maybe you need some courage to hold on while your lucky days may come somedays.
Unless you want to hold your loosing confidence with other person's here who has been unlucky like you all to ease your emotional breakdowns after having some loosing colleagues in here too.

Though it's the wrong mindset, most new gamblers think this way about gambling. They think that a person should either get rich or lose everything when they gamble but they don't know that there can also be a balance between the two. A gambler might not be a big winner but also not a big loser and they must just have a little profit in their overall gambling sessions so far. A person who hasn't lost a lot of money after gambling for quite some time is a successful gambler.

You don't need to get rich from gambling to be called a successful gambler but if you can keep your losses as low as possible, you can consider yourself a successful gambler because you are not having to spend money from your pocket every time you want to gamble since you are keeping a balance between your wins and losses.

I can’t really calculate the amount I have spent on gambling, I just gamble with any amount I have at that particular time that I know won’t affect me even if I lose, so I don’t calculate the amount I gamble with, but I know I do lose more than the way I win, I just win in gambling once in a while, and the funniest part is that since I do gamble less, the amount I always win is always kind of small, but I am sure I have not even won half of the amount I have spent on gambling. But there is a feeling I always have whenever I am bored and gambling, so I don’t feel bad even after losing because I know the amount is just a small amount of money.

After all the years that we've been dealing with gambling then it is really hard to make out some track on how much we had been able to spend out and since we are really just that playing for fun then
exact numbers couldn't be known unless if you are an individual who do really make some tally or listing on how much you had deposited then you could be able to know on how much you had already deposited
and on how much amount you have withdrawn. We do know that not all people would really be that something like this on which being mindful about the things that they've been spending but we know that
there's still people who could really be able list out despite of  those situations.

I have long stopped keeping statistics on my gambling wins/losses, but as it seems to me, like most gamblers I lose more.
 
This does not bother me much, as I do not gamble all the money I have. I have learned to control myself in this regard. I treat spending on gambling like buying a ticket to a new movie or paying for a delicious dinner at a restaurant.
