I just had a really bad day gambling today with Roma losing a ticket for me and their odd was 1.20 and they were playing against the last place of Italian Serie A. I thought a bad day and move on and played another ticket this time I choose Brondby as they were playing at home against a team they had beaten almost always and the odd was 1.35. This was even worse as Brondby lost 2-4 at home to a team quoted from the bookies at 8.5

Now I am not an expert in gambling but this day was a really eye opener for me, you can never win in gambling. Imagine when you can't win in lotto , soccer betting or whatever you call it, you don't have a chance in slots.

You can win, only if you know when to stop. It's a matter of right attitude towards gambling. I heard a lot of successful stories of gambler here and most of them has the same attitude. After winning they put a certain percentage for investment then only a portion of winnings was use to gamble again, that tactics will surely help you to control yourself and not to lose too much on gambling.

I don't know if that actually good advice or not... A problem gambler would read this and think he just has to change his 'attitude', to be able to win, while that's definitely not the case for most people.
Changing your attitude doesn't really change whether you're going to win or lose. Okay, you might be better equipped to handle your bankroll, but it doesn't change the results.

You're basically describing good bankroll management, not betting more than you want to lose and investing profits instead of using them to gamble.
That has nothing to do with attitude, but everything with bankroll management.

It happens to most of the gamblers. I never heard that a gambler has won a lot of money and is very happy today. When a person come out of casino and ask him what happened, he would say I lost this and that money. All the money is taken by the casinos owners. Gamblers get nothing. They just waste their time and time. When they lose they think about their money all the time.
