lipp Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 These remind me about the movie called "Owning Mahowny". Gambling is like a disease. It?s not your fault if you contract it, but it?s your responsibility to do something sensible about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeusbheld Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have been gambling and losing a lot of money at casinos.Do i have a gambling problem or just a losing problem? depends, has anyone hired a motocy taxi guy to kneecap you? (that's a gambling problem). if you're merely broke and obsessing on gambling again, that's a losing problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldMember Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Its a Gambling problem The odds at casinos are stacked in favour of the house. Losing ,aside possibly from playing poker(well), is a long term near dead certainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand a wager on the Hammers surviving would have brought handsome returns.WHUFC are bit like Beemers-ultimately Very dependable :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpingJohn Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have to gamble, change over to poker. You have a chance of winning there over the long term as long as you are better than the people you play against. Gambling against the house is a losing proposition over the long haul. Craps and blackjack give you the odds that are least stacked in the houses favor though, but you have to know how to play them. The house has a 1.5 - 2.5% edge on you in both of hose games, even if you play them perfectly. That means practice poker if you have any ambition to win in the long term. Don't go near the spinning wheel games. They typically have the worst odds. There are professional poker players. There is no such thing as a professional craps, roulette or blackjack player. (Note on blackjack - Unless they are counting cards and working as a team to juice the bets when the deck is "hot". Side note - The casino will ban you or have security remove your teeth in the back alley for card counting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyphil247 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have been gambling and losing a lot of money at casinos.Do i have a gambling problem or just a losing problem? Yes you have a gambling problem . For a bit of entertainment and a good night out , it can be good fun . If you want to make money , then write a book along the lines of " how to win money at casinos " and take some more money from gamblers who still believe that they can win . Maybe you are greedy and dont know when to stop ??? I remember someone telling me that once you have won half of your stake ( what you are willing to risk ) , its time to stop or go home .
