This makes gamble a game of luck to the poor and a game of strategy to the rich.

Ex:
RICH ($10,000 * 1.10 odds) = $11,000
POOR ($5 * 1000 odds) = $5,000 

With this you can see that the chances of the Rich winning is very high up to 90% while the Poor only have 10% chance of winning which now is based on luck!
This makes me think about the saying that goes by "THE RICH IS GETTING RICHER WHILE THE POOR IS GETTING POORER"
The get rich quick mentality is killing the poor.


Both categories of gamblers are still going to lose but I would rather be the gambler that ris little even though I'm rich. Chasing 1.10 odds with $10000 to me is not a rational thing to do even though it seems like a safe bet but there's nothing safe about gambling, it becomes more of a problem when you try to make it a source of income.  I would rather risk little to win big so just incase I don't end up winning losses would be minimal
