Re: Damn it I just lost all my bitcoins

think of it as an expensive lesson, now you know to never gamble again

gambling is a mugs game, never gamble.

In terms of gambling, losing roughly $900 USD is a pretty cheap lesson. Its a crappy way to learn, but it could be much worse.

For the most part I agree with the never gamble part. But it can be fun to go to the Casino with a bunch of friends with say a $20 limit. It can make for an entertaining evening.

sure, i guess sociable gambling is OK with friends at a casino but when you're sweating it out with all your money going to go busto or make it then where's the fun in that?

Not sure, but many people keep doing it in those situations. I guess they're addicted though. My buddy works with a guy that earns pretty decent money. He's a concrete mixer driver. He gets paid on Friday and heads straight to the Casino. He also plays a tonne of Keno at the pub. He will call my buddy and go on about how he just won $1000 bucks or whatever the big winner is. He doesn't take into account it cost him $1500 to win $1000. Anyways, he's usually broke when he comes into work on the Monday looking to borrow money for food.
