Can somebody make a successful career in gambling

[Casdinyard]

I said this once and I'll say it again and again, you can't make a career out of your fucking vices.

Like sure you're probably deluded by poker stars and champions so much that you think you have what it takes to get to their level, but as a dorito-crusted mountain-dew chugging citizen of the internet, you have as much chance getting to the big leagues as getting a free Porsche. And this is not me being mean, I'm just being realistic. The only thing you'll be getting out of your dedicated gambling journey is a buttload of regrets and 6 feet of virtually dug crevice cause you've dug yourself a massive hole from the debts you'd be incurring once you get addicted to gambling. So do yourself a favor, and find something else to make money with.

It may hard to believe but yes, there are really some lucky gamblers who have made a successful career in gambling. But for sure, they don’t reach that level instantly. They may have endured a lot of losses at first until they start to master their gambling strategies and attract some luck most often. Though this is really risky to consider gambling as a career, but if you are capable to make it happen, then why not? But you need to have a real job of course to back up your gambling career so that if ever you lose your luck in gambling, at least your finances will not end up collapsing as well.

Honestly I never thought if there are people who are successful in gambling, how can they be successful in a place that is only based on luck? and well this is very difficult to understand and understand, for those who are successful in gambling maybe I would not agree too much, and I think maybe for those who are successful in gambling who only rely on gambling as an intermediary for income,

Since there is no guarantee of winning in gambling, we will not win regularly in gambling and if we don't win regularly then how can we imagine it as a career. I can imagine a career where I can make regular money from gambling but is that realistically possible? I have also never seen anyone who has taken up gambling as a career. However, I have seen some gamblers who have other sources of income and also spend a long time in gambling and manage good gambling. They are very experienced. Comparatively their number of wins is not less but more than usual. We must not depend on gambling as it is uncertain. It can not be a career but an entertainment platform.

Of course it's obvious, there is absolutely no guarantee to win but to lose obviously it will always dominate, as we know and maybe most of us also know that the casino has arranged everything there, the chances of winning are there but I say it's only a small part that is very difficult to get, therefore honestly as I said before I do not understand if there are people who can succeed in a place that only relies on luck.

To be able to achieve success there will always be something consistent that we must get so that we can reach the highest point in that field, well while do you believe there is a consistent word in gambling? I think by just understanding that this is just luck alone can be sure that there is no consistent word in it. If you ask what is meant by a career in gambling, I think it is only for those stremers who strem with gambling objects and then they will get paid by the casino that told them to promote. So it is clear that their income is not purely from the gambling they do, but from agreements with several large casinos and gambling is only a medium.

Yes, that's right, in my opinion the ideal career or job is to have a consistent income every month. In gambling we cannot always make a profit, especially if greed and emotions cannot be controlled, it is very likely that we will spend a lot of money at the casino. Of course, this is very risky, especially if we have dependent wives and children.

I agree with you, if we want to have a career in gambling, maybe it is better for us to create our own casino because it is more profitable and can provide consistent income. But if we can't create our own casino yet, perhaps working as a marketing or division officer in a casino would be more logical than a career as a gambler.

Yes, that what I mean by gambling cannot be used as a main source of income or have thoughts of being successful in a career in the field of gambling because the possibility of what will happen is that instead of being successful things will get worse, because gambling will use up the user money as much as possible.

opening a gambling platform is not easy, it requires permission from several parties and requires a large amount of capital but the results are not in vain the benefits of opening a gambling platform are very large if we look at the people who open the gambling platform themselves or who work on the gambling platform.

however, there are some countries that are strongly against gambling like in my country, so it will be difficult if want to create your own casino platform or work in that field.

Some people may succeed in having very good career and even become rich from gambling because they win quite a lot of big tournaments such as poker tournaments but people like this are very rare to find and they have studied poker for not only one or two years so they become professional players who is able to compete in every major tournament.
Having the desire and also having the experience with a handful of people like that is actually quite good because it will give you the enthusiasm to learn to be able to have many skills but are you able to consistently learn and try to increase your experience until you succeed because most people are impatient with the process that they have to go through.
It better to do whatever you can and not expect more from gambling if you end up giving up or leaving disappointed.

I think all bookies who own and build casinos always choose to live in countries where casinos are legal so that they can build them outside their country and look for people who can manage the online casino to keep it running, why is this way better because being a bookie is more successful than become a gambler, after all where there is gambling that can make someone have a successful career.

In my country it is also against it and any gambling is considered illegal since this case emerged. All the founders of online gambling have moved to countries that are free from this violation, most of my friends who work for them in online gambling have also moved to that country. All their living needs are covered by the owner. casino and also in big salaries.

Isn't a high skilled gambler get banned from the casino because he keep making money and it will ruin the fun of other gambler? it's not surprising anymore a big casino do that. But of course we shouldn't treat gambling is for making money, it was never been a source of income.

Most of people want to get rich via instant, that's why they always trapped in ponzi scheme or gambling.

Doesn't gambling make people rich? Interesting insight! Professional poker players study, analyze, and live the game, calculating every card. It's strategy, psychology, and a thorough understanding of the game, not just luck. However, it requires dedication! Years of studying, practicing, and facing every hand and opponent.

Desire and experience - the key, right? The patience is the actual challenge! Most want success now, not later! Can everyone handle the tough pro journey? Long, twisting road. It is smart to do what you can without expecting the moon and stars from gambling, no? Dive in, enjoy the game, but keep your expectations in check. Who knows, you can flourish in gambling!

Of course, being a gambling founder guarantees success more than being a gambler because it feels a little impossible for gamblers to be successful. Even professional gamblers who can actually master the game sometimes still experience defeat and even in sports betting which requires analysis, sometimes it is still not accurate. and not according to predictions.
So I don't agree that gambling can be made into a job or a career to be successful.

In my country it is also against it and any gambling is considered illegal since this case emerged. All the founders of online gambling have moved to countries that are free from this violation, most of my friends who work for them in online gambling have also moved to that country. All their living needs are covered by the owner. casino and also in big salaries.

Yes, I think there are many countries that consider gambling to be illegal and my country is predominantly Muslim so it is very against gambling so it is very impossible to build a gambling platform here so if you want to set up gambling it is better to move to another country where gambling is more legal such as Spain, Italy and also Hong Kong.

Not all gamblers have the same story, some people have good play and luck playing gambling so they manage to win a lot of games but of course, those are not in a streak there's a loss manage to come back to their games. Some people fail to win any of their games reason why this is not ideal is to become a source of income use this only with your free time and extra money that you are willing to lose because there is no assurance for your every game that ton can win.
Better to seek permanent work, use an extra sideline, and gamble with your extra money. This is a win-win than risking everything in gambling.

[bitterguy28]

As the gambling industry is evolving, I think innovations would have kicked in that can make someone create a career from gambling. I do not know how this can be achieved but I feel it is possible.

Making gambling a full time job might be seen as risky but I still feel one can make gambling full time job and a career.

What do you all think?

If you will only explore more in this forum , you can find some claims that they are winning more than losing proving that others can live only using gambling as daily profiteering but of course this is very few from reality of life.
because it is also proven that only small percentage that a gambler can take home money and the majority of time he will give money to the operator.
I have been in gambling almost more than half of my life and I can attest that I cannot do this because luck seems not friendly to me.

still this is the best way to serve life, in right purpose as we have to work and not to gamble or to find living in luck.
in the end our family will suffer if we fails .

Some indeed have succeeded in making more money from gambling, but the number is not large, and most of us still often experience defeat and even lose more. It is difficult to make money from gambling and make gambling a job because we know that gambling is not a job that can give us money daily and monthly. If they want to earn a steady income, they should think about finding a better job to earn a steady income and use the money to gamble where they can win later.

You can try getting a career in an office because if you can work well and provide benefits to the office, your career can be promoted, which will also impact the salary increase you will get. But that's not the case if you gamble where gambling is not a career, so many people who try it will fail and lose their money. But some gamblers we don't know can win better than others, but they don't tell many people.

Many are agreeing to say that gambling is just a recreational activity that we must enjoy. But don't let that remove that most of the gamblers even if you're just for the fun, we're all wanting to make money from it. Well, not everyone is a success gambler and you can finally say that you can't make a career out of it. But how about those who look happy and successful with the said results as they gamble? I guess that's how they're motivated to think that gambling can be their career and no one can stop them because of the happiness that they're getting because they're all winning.

These are the people who can build their careers in gambling, but they hide it from other people.

And that's because there's an ugly truth and belief from people that don't gamble that whenever someone says that he's gambler, it's like he's an addicted person, a family wrecker, a person who's not financially well. As in every negative connotation about a person, they're attaching it to every gambler who admits that they are.

[Outhue]

It's not advisable, those who got rich by gambling never expected it, and that's because they rely on luck, those who expect too much from gambling are the ones who always lose their mentality and get addicted. When you expect less from gambling you will be able to use the right strategy because you still have your mind.

All it takes to be a good gambler is to learn the fundamentals of a particular game like poker or sports then stay with that and get better at it, it's advisable to build a bankroll through responsible nabd strategic gambling, do not, I repeat, do not use more than you can afford to lose.

With gambling it never ends, once it becomes a part of you it will be hard to let go, so make sure that you get used to responsible gambling, be prepared to get disciplined, and also maintain a strong mindset, because when you start seeing loses you can decide to break your boundary and start doing stupid things.

I won't advise anyone to build a career in gambling, only very few numbers of people become one and never lose their minds.

Yes gambling does not provide any guarantee of income and there is no way in this platform where somebody can earn continuously. It will be suicidal for those who consider it as a source of income. It is said that the additional income should be any employment through which a person will be able to earn a certain income. A gambler should remember that after a win his chances of losing are high so every bet is uncertain. And don't expect guaranteed income from uncertain platforms. It can only be taken for a temporary enjoyment. But it can never be a source of income for common people. Though we know some of very few professional gamblers they consider gambling as carrear but not for average people.

[Viscore]

This thread is sure to be quite long, and it's hard to read through all the replies to find a successful gambler. I suggest that OP creates a poll for us to check who among the posters here believes they have a successful career in gambling.

In reality, there are people who have already achieved success in gambling. The most popular among them are those who excel in poker games, while others are skilled in sports betting. So, the answer is indeed yes. It would be great if someone could share information about a person they know or are knowledgeable about who has succeeded in gambling. This way, we can learn valuable lessons that we can follow to achieve similar success.

Of course, gamblers want to earn money from gambling apart from just using it as recreation in their free time, which is a normal thing many gamblers already do. But they have to remember that we are only recreational in gambling and not chasing victory, so we don't need to try hard to get the win. Many still forget this instead of trying to make money from gambling. Even so, some people can build a career from gambling, but it will require more effort and ability to use gambling as a job. There is a lot that someone has to learn to become a gambler with a career in gambling that most gamblers cannot afford.

It is normal when we hear people's responses about people being gamblers. Most people will think that gambling is a bad thing, but they don't realize that there are successful gamblers who are not addicted to gambling and can have money to meet their daily needs. Gambling has become something that people must avoid so that their response will be negative.

Gambling is not a job and should never be treated as such.

As long as there is still a chance of you losing and not being in control of your predictions it will never be suitable for a career and unlike trading where you can improve your knowledge and skills and eventually helps you perform more trades efficiently gambling is not like that since 90% of it is based on luck.

And rather than waste your time looking for means to make gambling a means to earn passively (which would make some results into using some unethical means to achieve it) I’d advise you look for a skills that can later be monetized that’s far more better than betting on luck.

A job is when someone earns a consistent income. Common gamblers who play using their own funds can't be treated as a worker but it's possible that gambling can provide a career because a casino can hire workers. Also in the pro-gambling scene, there are companies who can hire skilled gamblers, just like in the pro-gaming scene.

Trading on the other hand can be a career if the trader is well-skilled. It can also work the same as I said earlier, where are company can hire a trader to work in a copy trading service or to provide a premium signal. Any skill in any field can be monetized. It's just that some are like you said (unethical). Maybe there are still some people who won't mind doing that, just for the sake of earning money.

It is actually Difficult when you see the game as a job, because it is something very treacherous, it should not be seen as an income because it is the worst decision of all to see the game that way, now when we make the analogy with trading things can be seen in another way, in trading things can go in the direction of what the trader knows best, the more he Speaks the more he will make Money, that is the law, then if a person is not good at it he has to trust what know, and obviously we will follow the best path , then basically when we see that things can be a little less complicated that's where it gets complicated, because when we see that Everything can turn out well we can turn around, in the market for volatility and in the casino, because the casino has many things in its favor, the house advantage, which is something obvious, the other thing can be the very complexity of the game, which makes you lose, all of that makes more and more problems. So you know in this order of ideas we could think that the things that are treated with a caisno must be done with great care.

A successful player for me is one who only plays and wins every day, there is no other way, I couldn't classify anything other than the same and I think many see it that way too, I couldn't say that a player is good and that he is not win , because what you are Going to do is accumulate losses which turns into loss of money, something that should never be allowed. We have to give our money the importance it requires, there should be nothing else that doesn't Matter more to you than our money. Without money we couldn't do Anything , in fact when the money runs out everything goes away and how are we left? wrong , because we Simply cannot make more Money , then our Money , and being in a casino seeing it as Income is not good, it is wrong, and it is not good that other players Think that this is the best Option to see the Games of Chance.

Making gambling a full time job might be seen as risky but I still feel one can make gambling full time job and a career.

What do you all think?

There are people who are able to turn their gambling career into a successful one. Those are truly skilled and they built that for years.

But that good fortune can't be applied to everyone that's why considering gambling as a full-time job sounds horrible.

It's not that easy to accomplish without a unique skill of our own since gambling requires our own money to start with. How come it can be considered a full-time job if in the first place, we need to risk our own money just to earn from it and our success rate depends only on luck?

i can agree if you are into sportsbetting or a poker player. because there are indeed some players of these games that can live thru with this career. but if you will venture the casino classics which are mostly luck-based, i don't think you can make a living out of these games.
but it would take years for you to get good money even in sportsbetting or poker, because you need to acquire such skills and strategies thru experience, so you will have edge with your game.

Poker is definitely one of those paths that you have to become professional, let's say that the skill variable works, but there are BJ, Roulette, professional players.

In fact, billiards with all its variants are gambling games, but perhaps those who perform them can be considered high-risk and random professional jobs, since the probability of winning each game depends on how the balls are distributed in each game.

Let's say there are many branches of betting that you can dabble in, so where chance is involved and your income depends on it, it is considered a professional activity.
