Anybody here ever make money gambling?

Casinos aren't exactly my scene either. I mean, sure, they glamorize it with those flashy ads, but at the end of the day, the odds aren't in our favor. And yeah, that whole "you can't win if you don't play" line? Been there, heard that, and still walked out empty-handed.

I mean, the markets are sort of a gamble, and we have averaged 11% for the past 15 years. So, yeah, I feel like I've won

A rising tide lifts all boats!

I won like 200$ from my 50 1 time. I was drinking with my friends at we got the best idea ever. I took my money and never came back Now I occasionally bet on some sport events on SlotExo.

I probably spent WAY too much time in Casino's when I was younger playing mainly blackjack and poker & did ok at those. Better at blackjack, since the poker rooms wind up being locals scamming the tourists & teaming up against new guys. The Dunes was probably the toughest cardroom I ever played in & the railbirds would signal their partners in the game. Craps was a wild ride with much bigger swings, lots of fun, but net/net a loser except for the house. "They don't pay for all them lights by lettin' the tourists win"

I guess I never understood the fun of throwing my money away on anything other than women……

Spent most of my money on women and booze. The rest of it, I just wasted.

Nope… never but it only takes one to win and that’s my limit.

I've only ever gambled on wife, home and kids.

So far, the payback has been way better than the odds projected.

I did bet on a running dog once, I had to, it just took a dump a minute before the race started.

I don't oppose gambling, but I can not stand to lose!

Same here, I hate to lose. I can buy a $100 piece off chrome for the motorcycle but can’t give $20 to a casino.

My brother in law won a lure over a million dollars on the lottery about 25 years ago, he is 67 and still working.
