My only strategy in gambling is to play with a very small amount of money and to only play for a very short time.  I use this strategy because I know that gambling is designed to take my money.  With my strategy I can guarantee I won't loose very much and I know exactly how much I'm going to loose, because I have set that specific amount aside ahead of time.  There is no real strategy to "make a profit" in gambling, there is only strategy in minimizing your loses.
