started at age eighteen

thats a BAD A**

Answer 2

I don't have a lifetime loss. I actually have a positive record with gambling to the tune of $26,000 or so over the past 8 years.

This includes poker, blackjack and sports gambling.

Stocks really isn't gambling if you know what you are doing. Slots are fun but they are a bad investment. Avoid them at all costs.

I am 31 years old in Connecticut.

Answer 3

Don't play casino games or the lottery which are negative expectation games.

Sports betting and poker can be a different story, especially sports betting if you know what you're doing.  Plenty of folks have made serious dough at these.

I guess if I wasn't making a profit at gambling I wouldn't do it and I'd actually have to find a real job :)

Answer 4

I was well aware of this unavoidable effect, untill i heard in a movie that "blackjack was the only game in a casino that the player can gain and edge in"  i was in such disbeleif that everything i knew about casinos up untill then was wrong, that i began to learn about it and why it is beatable.

Since i began my blackjack escapades, my very first trip i lost 35 dollars, and ever since i have won more and more money, there were times i lost, but it was never enough to entirely eleminate my previous winnings. To date i have won over 11,000 dollars sicne day one.

Iv also learned that the average gambler doesnt gamble enough to always fall victim to the hosue edge in their lifetime, it is not at all very unlikely that a non advantage player coudl gambel there whole lives and never lose money.
