Intro Howdy!

I hope to meet some cool folk and learn more about the world of gambling. I'm currently loosing my ass on scratch-off tickets which I know is dumb, better to visit the casino. Today I am down like $200 so far, $25 tickets go by really fast.

 

welcome aboard florida cash!

i'm no ap'er, but i know enough to avoid scratch-off tickets. i consider them the "junk food" of the gambling world, lol!

what else do you play?

 

Blackjack, what should I do about the losses playing the lottery? I want to move on and play other games but I just keep kicking myself for being so dumb. Thank you.

 

can't help you there, man, cuz i lose more than i win, but i really enjoy gambling, so i see it as spending money to do something i love, like a hobby. but i always gamble with a specific bankroll that never changes and once that bankroll is gone, i'm out, so i always know beforehand exactly how much i'm "spending" to have fun. of course, when i win, that's a bonus and i spend that bonus on other things i enjoy, so it's double the fun and those days are even better. but i never gamble what i can't afford to lose and that's how i can keep doing it without any stress. so that's the best tip i can give you - don't gamble what you can't afford to lose. other than that, there are some advantage players here who do know what they're doing and make a living from gambling, so i would recommend reading what they have to say. good luck, dude!

 

Hello Florida Cash, I'm glad you stopped by. Lots of fun on this board. Some psychos here but its all in all pretty decent.

I wish I never started playing the lottery, what a waste of my time and money. The casinos offer a better gambling experience than my driver seat.

 

Its risk vs. reward, like anything else in life. If I'm risking $20 on a lotto (and can afford it), that $20 is peanuts compared to, if I hit.

(imo).....for a beginner, lets just say $50 per week. If you can afford that $50 per, then do it.

I ended up spending over $500 on scratch-offs yesterday, just a disaster and I am sick this morning just thinking about what happened.

 

Keep trying, your due to hit a good one soon. Perhaps a 2nd job will provide more money to play. As they say, "You can't win if you don't play". Good luck and "Keep on scratching "!

Missed you Kendry!
