Of course the house always wins, casinos arent big business cause they loose money.

xlogger · 11-29-2005, 05:46 PM

I dont understand why people gamble when they know the house always wins. Whats the point of that?

Cause the house always wins, but it also always pays somewhere to someone.

Not if you play Texas Hold em'. You play against other players and the house takes a cut from each pot. It's the only game where you have a fighting chance of winning.

To some people it is pure entertainment just like throwing a party, or going out for a fun night. Not everyone is broke you know

studiocritic · 11-29-2005, 06:32 PM

house edge on blackjack is well under 1%.. that means playing by proper strategy you'll win slightly less than 50 out of 100 hands. now if you know when to bet larger, YOU win overall.

fuzebox · 11-29-2005, 06:32 PM

Still up after 2 years

Have probably had more down nights than up nights, but a couple of really, really big up nights still have the winnings tipped in my favor.

I love both table games and poker, the casino is always fun.

tranza · 11-29-2005, 06:34 PM

I think the most I ever lost was $50.

I'm not a big gambler. I like sure things.

Jarmusch · 11-29-2005, 06:37 PM

The casino always wins because it doesn't lose control and doesn't bet all it's money at once.

tony286 · 11-29-2005, 06:39 PM

yes in the long run they always win I lost $1100 in about 30 minutes, then had to wait around the casino with no money in my pocket for 6 hrs for the bus to come back so I could go home lol.

JamesK2 · 11-29-2005, 06:39 PM

I love the excitement of betting... and I don't go there to win, but for a nice time.

Did lose a few grands on it.

I?ll bet 3.5 million dollars that I?ve lost more than you (final tabulation must also include the amount gained or lost as a result of this bet).

Wha?

poisson · 11-29-2005, 07:58 PM

$450 in a 2 year period.

boner 2.0 · 11-29-2005, 08:03 PM

Spunky · 11-29-2005, 08:05 PM

Probably a few k..have a handle on the problem now

Brent_Moe · 11-29-2005, 08:15 PM

$50 dollars I guess. The first and the only time I gambled.

You need to know how and what you're playing.

KRL · 11-29-2005, 08:25 PM

You can only win if you hit a lucky streak, stop playing and leave. But the casino will do everything imaginable to entice and keep you there so that the time factor gets back their money.

The longer you play the higher the guarantee for the casino that you will lose all your money.

Poker of course you can win since you're playing against other players and the house advantage is not in the equation.

You can see a good analysis of casino VCL's on this chart.

Yeah dude, i heard that before. You will win a lot at the beginning and lose much more if you stay.

poisson · 11-29-2005, 09:31 PM

Why did you have to do a thread about it?

I'm at $470 spent now. (update from my $450
in 2 year post)
Shit.

Booze and gambling=winning for gambling site.

STAY AWAY!

I love the taste of that 95% rum 5% coke glass they bring within seconds of the dealer busting on a fat double on both hands...

PrintAdult · 11-29-2005, 09:43 PM

11 k or so this year. But I am recovering.

chaze · 11-29-2005, 09:53 PM

Maybe 50k in last 12 months. but mostly poker

Sucks i need to quit.

miss wild · 11-30-2005, 02:35 AM

I am not a gambler...I hate gambling

PenisFace · 11-30-2005, 02:38 AM

I lost 5 dollars gambling once. NEVER again will I do that. What good is gambling? It isn't. It's a brutal habbit to get into that cleans people out. Sure, you can win a hundred bucks, and then 20 minutes later, be in the hole 600. The casino always wins. You think they dont have games stacked in their favour? Same thing goes with betting on sports and shit. There's no skill behind it. It's chance. If you put $20,000 on a football game, you need help.

MrChips · 11-30-2005, 02:42 AM

Im an affiliate for a casino - some poor bastard (through my account

) has lost over 50,000$ this month.

I aint complainin at 25%

knoxville · 11-30-2005, 02:44 AM

you are correct dude, casino is the real winner in gambling. good thing i don't waste my time and money in that kind of activity.

je_rome · 11-30-2005, 03:47 AM

my first and last time I lost about 10 grand

You are implying that it's possible to over long term win betting on sports?

Scott McD · 11-30-2005, 04:26 AM

Most of my gambling money goes on sports bets. I don't usually go to casino's. Which is probably a good thing...

lakroze · 11-30-2005, 04:57 AM

the last month I'm almost everyday in a casino.. with small amounts of money...

I mean - yesterday I lost 30 $ , 2 days ago 100 $ sometimes (rarely) I wins small amount... and for my case - YES - THE CASINO ALWAYS WINS ...

but its cool to play roulette ...

and one advice - never go to a casino with "I have to win" in your mind

wielco · 11-30-2005, 05:02 AM

20 pounds in scotland

Nicky · 11-30-2005, 05:08 AM

The last 2 weeks im up loads, but if u scope it out over my whole life im probably -

Antonio · 11-30-2005, 05:31 AM

couple of bucks, I used to go to casinos with my friends but I don't really see the kick

HDADULT · 11-30-2005, 06:25 AM

I goto the Hard Rock in Tampa to play Hold em (for fun). The casino really sucks because its only slot machines and a poker room. I am allways amazed at the rows and rows of people pushing a button with blank stares on there faces.
I find it funny in the entrance you see people all happy when they arrive and when they leave they are not so happy anymore. Its kind of like leaving a strip club with nothing but wood knowing you spent too much money.
