I haven't seen someone who takes a big risk in gambling who tells the story of their risk in a good way that it pays off for others to learn from. What you hear mostly from them is bitter complaints about the big losses they have made in gambling.
Those of us who don't risk much in gambling tell the good side of gambling to be fun. When we tell others about our losses and small wins, people won't feel pity for us instead they will like to gamble like us, with little money, so that they will have many years to enjoy gambling without fear of financial bankruptcy compared to those who risk their money to make a fortune from gambling
Some people have actually made progress from a big risk they took, generalizing it isn't really accurate... everyone's experience with gambling isn't the same and the honest truth is that not everyone is going to win...some people have flipped thousands of dollars and they lost it some have flipped the same amount and they won from it , it's hard to know what the outcome would be so it's best to play it safe
I remember way back in the university what happened to my room mate who was an active gambler way back in school, he was in dear need of a mobile device like an android phone, and at that point in time the only money at hand was his school fees and to that extent he
Risk some amount from the school fees to stake a bet on agame.
He bet with 10,000 naira out of the remaining school fees, if he lose, he wont be able to lay his tuitions fees since the money will be short with 10k but if he wins he walk away with 100k naira, luckily for him, he won the bet and becomes very happy to have taken that risk, he bought a brand new phone and laid his fees, so without risk sometimes there wont be rewards.
