There is absolutely no way to make money from gambling that is long term, it's clear that there will always be trouble in the long run because the math is right there, it's guaranteed. Sure you could make money here and there from time to time and there is no denying that, but that doesn't mean that we should be hoping for that to be like an income or something. I once made 1700 dollars from a simple bet on a slot, it just kept growing and growing, does that mean I should just quit my job and hope that I get that result every month? Of course not, its just pure luck, but if you keep doing it, will be your loss.
