I don't think you really got what he was saying. I mean, 7k is a lot of money. Heck it's more than 4 years of minimum salary where I live, I would be super stunned if I bet my house on that and still lost.
I would even be stunned if I'm a casino owner and someone won a 0.00001% chance (and it has happened).
Are you saying no one needs to have emotion gambling? Then you've lost the point of gambling;)

I have never said that I have no feelings when gambling, it is not my intention. But to talk about the stunned when gambling, it is not a feeling that can happen to 7,000 dollars. I also agree that $ 7,000 is a lot of money, but why you must be stunned when others win, it is not your own victory Roll Eyes

Moreover, gambling is not a means to get rich, I wonder why a poor person can bet their house for a game? I call it a fool

Maybe because the odds were all with you, you should have won with all your money put into it. It's like imagine you bought 90% of all golden tickets but someone with just 0.004% won the Lambo. Yes, you would be stunned too. It can be about the money, but it can simply be about the surprising things that should not have happened but did:)

Call a fool a fool, but I've met plenty of gambling people and their house is not the worst that's been gambled.
