I think you can. but maybe you need big bankroll and play smart. If i have big bankroll i will do it more safely and play smart.
my last long bet is around 5bitcoins win from 0.5btc. it's quiet big for me and because greedy i lose it all.

That's not safe at all to be greedy. You should learn to have some self control and gamble in moderation.

i think it would be easy with 300k doge to 1000k or so
ohh damn im wrong , it's not easy and yeahh lost it all hmmm Undecided
in other words we can not win in the long term
easy to says but hard to do so
although you think that's safe bets and will earn big profit from that but in the fact you can lost your money everytime if you do a gamble

Longterm is not profitable, at the end you will lose a lot.

With gambling you need just to win early and just stop doing it .

With winning I mean really big win.

And if you don't win big early then what? Give up and cry in a pillow?

You would really have to stick to a strict set of rules, one wave of bad luck and you can lose it all quickly.

Gambling can be profitable in the long run but it requires a strict discipline that's hard to achieve.  It requires strict bankroll management that takes into account the variance that might be encountered along the way.  One would have to "not gamble" but only play in those situations where the expected value is positive (+EV) and avoid those situations, ALWAYS, that have a negative expected value....even when one's heart is pounding and one has that "feeling" that they're gonna get lucky this time.  Always avoid negative expected outcomes and one will profit in the long run.  It's not easy though....it's all work!

It can be if played properly
that can be said of any game, but the fact is, there arent many gambling games out there that have a skill or knowledge factor, theyre mostly pure luck. there are some games such as poker, but you need to be a clear cut better than your opponents to win consistently, and thats something much easier said than done.

Honestly, I don't think so for the average person. If you are a professional and you understand what you are playing, the core elements and the essential vital components of the game to take advantage of the house, you will be profitable.There little reason why a casino would want to give you any advantage. A casino isn't there to lose their money, it's there to earn yours.  Grin

I think no , if you are playing dice sites , but can be for sports book.
Dice sites are designed to make you loose till you are empty and from my experience you can win small $ from dice sites but whenever you will roll a dice with big money you will mostly lose.
things are not same with sports book , winning and loosing in sports-book is universal and outcome is transparent.

except you cant really take advantage of the house, that's why you dont see any professional slots players or anything. you can only take advantage of other players, in a game such as poker, where the game isnt designed to make you lose, and you can come out ahead with enough skill and experience in making the right calls.

You can win, it just depends on how you win, how much and the things you do with it

If you keep up with your winnings and losses you can win and it can be profitable.

As long as your winnings are bigger than losses you should be okay.

Absolutely, every spin of a slot and every throw of a die has a negative expected value (-EV), but in poker, you have both -EV hands (which you fold) and +EV hands (which you raise).  If you always get an optimal value out of your +EV hands and always fold your -EV hands....you'll be a winner in the long run, mathematically.

the only way you could trully win at gambling is that you either cheat or either the house edge is in your favor.
I don't see any other way, honestly.

Correct.

So the bottom line here, stop gambling as it will lead you to nowhere. And about the thread title, many knows the appropriate answer for that.

Not really, suppose someone wants to win 0.0001 BTC then I guess is pretty simple given that he has at least 0.02 BTC or more. He would easily win 0.0001 unless he gets too unlucky.But yes you must set goals then only you can achieve them, playing for winning site's bankroll is not the best idea.

Correct.

Gambling doesn't mislead, its the approach towards it, that leads to wrong things. If you gamble for fun, its good. If you gamble small, its good.

Note the in the long run. If you keep playing, mathematically, you will lose the house edge. i.e if you play infinite amount of times, with 1% house edge, you will win 49.5% while house wins 50.5%
