You both were really lucky mate that you successfully won that amount in gambling, but it doesn't goes same with all, and many people stay away from gambling because they don't have courage and have fear of loosing their money.
I do not feel afraid to lose money, because the money I invested is money that is ready to disappear. But why I do not like gambling, because I think we just fooled alone. And if anyone had any success of gambling it is a very lucky man. So I do not like gambling because only utilize luck and no strategy in it. You just fooled by the site owner. IMO
