Only when your current gains in gambling are so much bigger than your loses. For this to be true and accurate you must have bankroll management and keep a history. A lot of people don't do this, and then when they score they lie themselves that they are doing good but it is not true. Without properly accounting your history of playing, it is impossible to be sure about this.

I've been saying the same thing. I remember months ago I saw a guy who posted that he had a big win. So I asked him how long he had been playing and how much he had played and lost so he could determine whether or not with this big win he was in profit. But from what I could tell, he didn't want to understand why I said that.

For him, that big win was a profit and didn't need any further calculations. I kept wondering why he was like that. I even thought he was afraid to do the calculations and find out he had many more losses and that the large amount he won didn't cover all his losses. Most people are afraid to ask themselves how much they are losing, especially when they win a lot one day.
