Gambling's okay as long as you keep winning?

[Hardyrobust]

What's your take on this?

Gambling is okay even if you're losing. It doesn't matter if you're winning or losing, what matter is you taking control of gambling and not allowing gambling to take control of you. Going by the idea shared in the video, it means gambling is never OK because there is no way you keep winning. Gamble with amount you can afford to lose, don't let gambling interfere with your important activities. Gambling can still be bad for you even if you're winning but you're addicted.

The thing there is that there are people who are only playing or gambling with nothing but the expectation of only winning, so whenever they play, they only wanna keep winning and nothing more than that, so whenever the losses come along, they become very disappointed and it basically ruins their mood.
These set of people can easily make gambling mistakes like chasing losses, not walking away when it's clear that the odds are basically against them, and at the end of the day, they blame gambling for it.

Those that are only gambling with the mindset of winning all the time dont really understand what gambling is and they will end up being disappointed because in gambling it is not possible for anyone to be winning at all time without losing.  The mindset that gambling is only all about winning without losing can easily push most gambler into gambling with more than they can't afford to lose .

Yep, I believe majority of the gamblers are not gambling for fun but to make profit. I literally see a gambler who treat gambling as fun or entertainment, almost all the gamblers I have around me both the ones outside/ very far away from me are all gambling for this same purpose that's to (win). This set of gamblers pray for wining whenever they gamble forgetting that lossing is also part of the game.


However, there's nothing wrong if a person choses to gamble for wining. but they should have it in mind that lossing is inevitable because there's no way they will only have wining, wining all the time without losing. the system is programmed in a way that you will experience both outcomes.

Of course, gambling is ok whether you keep winning or not but it's more better when you keep winning and that has always been the target and the reason why majority of gamblers started gambling because they think it's easy to keep winning. All those people out there that are criticizing gambling assuming, all gamblers keep winning, they will start gambling.

You are very correct, if gambling guarantee steady winning many people who criticize it today may even join. Money attracts people and if everyone believes that winning is sure. Many will rush to start gambling.
The truth is that gambling isn’t designed to make players continue winning. Every game has house edge or risks this  means that overtime, most gamblers will lose more than they win.

It’s because of this uncertainty that many people are criticizing gambling for. While some people criticize it because they have seen how it affects people who are around them through addiction, affect relationships or debt.  If winning in gambling is automatic, it will attract almost everyone. Since luck isn’t stable and the odds don’t favor the players, this is the major reason why many people are still avoiding it or criticizing it.

I’ve never really met someone who actually makes a living from gambling. I’ve met people who made a lot of money from it at times, and that’s a completely different thing. If you play smart, just for fun, and get a bit lucky, you can hit a pretty big win.But if you start calculating everything and gambling becomes an everyday thing, and you depend on a slot spin or a goal in a match, then you’ve got a serious problem. So yeah, take it slow, be smart, and keep it fun

To be frank with you, I have seen gamblers who are living from gambling and we can also see many of them online.
Gambling is not always giving the same outcome to every gamblers and this is why some gamblers are quite profitable why some are still struggling to make the money. The same can be seen in trading too. There are people that will not believe that people can actually make money through trading. Everyone with different ways they reflect to things around them and same is applicable to gambling.

Yes, there are professional gamblers and professional traders. This fact is hard to deny. 🙋

There are games of chance where, in addition to luck, your skill, knowledge, and ability influence the final outcome. Take poker, for example. To win at this game, you need good mathematical abilities, an excellent memory, improvisation skills, and an understanding of physiognomy. These skills and abilities will allow you to win in the long run (although sometimes you will lose even to weak players, and that's normal, because it's very difficult to win in poker with very weak cards).

However, if you have such outstanding abilities, the question arises: "Wouldn't you be more successful if you didn't play poker, but, for example, started your own business?" This is a very serious question...

I spoke with professional gamblers who specialize in sports betting. They complained that they have a hard time making big money because bookmakers lower their betting limits.

 Overall, even if you're a consistent winner, you shouldn't make casino winnings your primary source of income. And unless you're a professional gambler, don't fool yourself into thinking that random wins mean you're the secret grandson of the goddess of luck.💁

Okay, when you look at poker, it's a game that requires both skill and a great deal of luck. People play poker because they enjoy it and are passionate about it. Why would they burden themselves with running a business if they can make a living doing something that makes them happy? Those are professional gamblers, and they certainly know how to manage their bankroll. Besides, poker tournaments offer very large prize pools, so there is plenty of money to be made

Is gambling okay as long as you keep winning? An interesting take here by a gambler guy in the subway 58 years of gambling, argues that gambling was okay as long as you keep on winning.
I mean, for sure, it's okay if you keep on winning, right? But can we keep on winning? In the end, he ended up saying about the fun and enjoyment, which I think is a denial, he knows that gambling was bad.

At first I’m not sure is possible for one to keep winning in gambling, there’s reason why they call it game of luck cause you can either win or lose . So you winning continuously will see unreal though one can be in a winning streak where by he or her winning is more than their losses . The only way you can have good winning streak is through the application of appropriate risk management.

In gambling, losing is as possible as winning, gambling means a combination of losing and winning, so here one should not gamble only for winning or only with the expectation of winning, especially when the expectation reaches a harmful level, it becomes more dangerous, because there are many gamblers who start gambling with money beyond their means just in the hope of big winnings, for them the matter becomes more harmful and very dangerous for financial situation. Therefore, we need to be realistic before making wrong decisions through such a wrong mentality. Wrong mindset pushes us towards many wrong activities, which causes terrible damage to our financial situation, which we cannot even fix later.

How would a casino survive if we all won? It wouldn't, that means at the very least "some" of us have to lose. The reality is, aside from a few lucky people who won a lot and just cashed out, EVERYONE loses money that's the math behind it.

If you ever try to find anything but 4 on a 2+2 just to be quirky and think that you are special, you will fail, and just be someone who is wrong. This is math, gambling makes you lose money, that's it, nothing shocking about it, if you keep gambling, you lose, it's not a questionable thing. Only way to profit, would be making it big once, and leaving forever.

Whether a gambler wins or loses in gambling, he should stop gambling for that day when the market he has taken to gamble ends or withdraws profit. And take a break and enjoy gambling again. And of course, a big break should be taken because if someone gambles every day, it will become his habit and then he will not be able to leave that habit easily. And if someone has a habit of gambling every day, no matter how good his luck is, no one can ever keep his winnings. Gambling should never be a serious habit. It should only be thought of as a place of pleasure.
