I can see that you didnt pay attention to the smiley he had in front of the comment or you do not understand him. He was only kidding and I dont believe theres any gambler that does not value their BTC not this time we are eagerly waiting for bull run.
I love cryptocurrency a lot but never gamble with my BTC, there are a lot of smaller coins that can be used, and being rich doesnt not mean one would now waste money. Its a clear joke. I protect my Bitcoin and I am very sure everyone does same. And back to the post, lets not even stage any comparison between fiat and cryptocurrency gambling because it is too clear that cryptocurrency is much better than fiat.
If you continue with the mindset of love for BTC and then fail to risk then you are ready to make it in gambling. We all cherish our Bitcoin, but to be realistic, it is better to use it to play than to use smaller coins because the BTC brings bigger profit when a game is won but its a your choice anyway, maybe you are just extremely careful and I understand but for me I take big risks in gambling.
I started using fiat to gamble, I believe everyone did except those that just came into gambling few years ago and they might not have the horrible experience we had with fiat, comparing fiat and cryptocurrency is like comparing advanced country with non-developed country.
