The only reason why I'm in support of this is because the stake is actually moderate, this is what it means to gamble responsibly and smartly. $20 to get $700 seems like a lot but it's possible but what makes it safe is the amount, some bettors prefer to chase small wins with huge stakes and to me that's way too risky because even small odds are not a guarantee of winning, make sure you always stake a moderate amount

I don't understand why gamblers are so fond of setting themselves such huge distant financial goals that are very unlikely to be achieved.
It's just that if I even take into account the roulette chances, which are 50/50, then there are two possible outcomes: either losing those 20 dollars, or doubling them. And the positive outcome is 50 percent. The next multiplication by two implies 25, and so on. And the chance of accumulating $700 this way is very small.

This is a general problem and it's one thing, general financial difficulties. See, naturally we all have different financials and financial instability and this is different from one person to another depending on how we all earn. There are people that earn though but the problems they have is way bigger than what they have at that moment and when they have gambling as way to risk, they do it and put all their mind into it that they can make the money from there.

Don't you see how gambling is tempting, like you can use $2 to have different possibilities with potential win of $1m depending on the casino max cashout but winning that potential money is the problem because casino isn't foolish enough to make you a millionaire in just one day. You have seen how gullible people put money on ponzi schemes even despite the warnings? It's not like they don't know, they do but they are just stupid because of greed, that's how gamblers think sometimes.
