There is one surefire way of getting rich from gambling:
- Step one, don't try to beat the house, the house always wins.
- Step two, now that you know that the house always wins, BE the house, and then others will bring their money to you.
(And not just their money; I've seen people gamble away their cars, their homes, one guy even tried to gamble away his mother-in-law... sure, when he actually won THAT one time, his wife didn't murder him but boy was he devestated when he actually won that gamble...)
