1 - You gamble what you can afford
2 - You don't have to gamble just to gamble
3 - Nothing is for sure
4 - Bet less games and bigger wagers on quality games instead of spreading yourself thin
5 - Parlays are usually sucker bets, but there are times when they have value
6 - Teasers follow the same rule as Parlays

...of course this is for Sports bettting

simple rules for making gambling fun rather than costly lol it doesn't matter how much you have to play with its how much fun you get out of the betting lol Cheesy

Never heard of gambling that can fix one's life. So its obvious what is the answer here. Smiley
i definitely disagree with you, there are some people who bet all their money all in win and never come back to gambling, of course it happens rarely but we cant say that it doesnt happen at all

edit: here i found a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGCdBsOIKYA

Well in some point you both are correct. It is just that majority of gamblers got their life wreck because of gambling.                                                                                                                                      

Or they started gambling because their life was already wrecked... Chicken or the egg problem Smiley

I think when there are already underlying issues, a person can get more susceptible to addiction in general.
But as with anything, gambling can be pretty fun in moderation and I think it's a relatively small part of recreational gamblers that develops a gambling addiction.

Then you obviously never heard of people who broke the bank. It's rare but it happens, just like winning a jackpot or a lottery.

That kind of things is one in a million but I dont think the bank only have a little bankroll but giving you such a big jackpot, they must calculate it well enough to get profit and set the jackpot for you guys to play



i definitely disagree with you, there are some people who bet all their money all in win and never come back to gambling, of course it happens rarely but we cant say that it doesnt happen at all


What I can say is they only got some big cash to try the site and luckily they hit a good amount of money, there are much people using this kind of trick to earn some cash. In every site there will be this kind of guy to play like that

I don't think gambling can fix anyone's life...maybe make it better if they win a lot, but fix it? No, I don't think that's possible. It can most definitely wreck your life though, because money is involved. You do see the occasional sob story of a guy who lost money he couldn't afford to lose. Some of them are probably fake, but some are also probably real.

There is a very small % of people that win in the long run, compared to those who lose.  For them, they are usually highly skilled and make a career out of it.  For your average joe, I think it's just the possibility of winning that outweighs the fact that the odds are against you.

Have you guys ever seen a casino in a less affluent area?  There are people there, stationed beside slot machines, and it looks like they haven't seen light in ages.  It's a very depressing environment.  Didn't look like they work, so possibly spending their social security money in the casino.  It reminded me of the morlocks, for anyone that watches x-men (mutants that live in the sewers and never show their face in society).
Either way, the risks for most far outweigh the benefits. Sure, there are a few people who can make a living out of it, but even the most skilled poker players end up going broke more often than not. I think the idea of pro-gambling is non-existent.

You are wrong. You should watch the documentary where they talk about the best Poker players in the world. They make a good living out of it. They do go broke sometimes but their probability is on their side and they always walk out a winner.

the most skilled poker players might actually easily go broke if they play from all the funds they have, they just need to make some bad decisions and thats it they loose

Never give up. You managed to make that $25000 somehow, unless you borrowed it in which case you're fucked Tongue, so you'll make it back someday. It's just money. As long as you're young and healthy you have nothing to worry about.
The worst thing you can do is gamble with someone else's money and then have to give it back.

Gambling certainly does not wreck my life. When I was younger I lost a lot gambling, I've also won large amounts too. These days though I just gamble for fun with amounts that I don't mind losing.

The one golden rule with gambling is to only bet what you can afford to lose & I can't stress that enough. Just gamble as a hobby, don't go chasing unrealistic amounts & stupid dreams because it'll only end in disaster. More often than not the bookie wins, remember that. You'll never see a broke ass bookmaker but you'll see plenty of broke gamblers.

Only bet what you can afford to lose & know when to walk away, whether in profit or at a loss you must know when to put your wallet away & call it quits for the day.

All the money that I lose is what I can afford to lose though. Wink

It is funny how people think about losing = be homeless, must be some kind of an inevitable thinking.
