I always play small bets sometimes win and other times loose.Overall it has no effect on my life as this is pure based on fun.I have seen many people whose life was wrecked there are hundred of examples.Gambling and fixing life are two contrary things in my opinion.
That's actually a better way of looking towards gambling, it needs to be done for fun and not to become a millionaire or something as it needs hard luck in order to become one...
You need to know and research a lot before doing gambling for your living...
Yup, usually most games are designed in such a way that you will end up losing. so to really win, you need to play games whereby you can rise your chance of winning by skills. and that is esport and poker.
