    Could you afford to lose £900? If not you may have a gambling problem

    Thanks to beerman

    Mugs game, only 1 winner with gambling.
    Only in Britain….do we use the word “politics” to describe the process of Government. “Poli” in Latin meaning “many” and “tics” meaning “bloodsucking
    creatures”

    I once lost over £500 on it, that was a bad start to a weekend away Was it online or in a casino? Online is dangerous. I try not to get carried away these days.

    Funny how when you've lost loads of money, sometimes the best cure (for now) is spunking even more money down the pub

    I don't understand why people gamble on roulette when it's sided towards the casino, in the long run you will always lose no matter your system/strategy unless of course you know a roulette wheel that's slightly off balance.

    Stay away from roulette!

    Relax dude, if you can get another £900 together then just put it on red or black and if you win you'll get back all you lost and £900 profit, it can't fail!

    Did £80 in a 200 quid jackpot machine about 18 years ago (shitty snooker club, was 18 at the time) one of those with 4 reels.

    Machine was called Blackjack, had shitty little mirrored holographs of the cards.

    Managed to get 3 cherries on the last couple of spins and gambled high-low to 80, shitting myself and cashing in at the getting back to the 80 quid.

    Never touched a machine since.

    Seen a £200 jackpot roll in on 20p found on the floor, seen chumps dump 1100/1200 quid in a machine only to watch them get the full payout and maybe hit repeat walking away stupid amount down, local vulture having a go once they've walked.


    Most action I get is the Euro lottery these days, thankfully!!

    £900 down is a low point, but at least you have BEER!

    Thanks to Chubbs

    I've never gambled. I remember when I was a young lad my mum said (whilst we were watching some people pump money into fruit machines) they'll be lucky if they win their own 10 pence back. A long time ago, but stuck with me.

    Each to their own though.

    Of course there are ways to win but playing a regular game the odds are against you.

    I went from £3.50 to £370 on roulette in an afternoon (online) then went back on the next day thinking I was like James Bond and lost the lot in 15 mins I was pissed off but not as much as if it had actually been my own physical money. I was using that double up method on red or black.

    I read the best way to win on Roulette is just one single bet on red or black of your entire bank - casinos dont like that and thats why they have a house limit - its still odds against you because of the green but its the easiest and fastest way to double your money, the casinos prefer lots of small bets as sure enough they`ll always win in the end. I enjoy a visit to the casino when Im out with my mates but Im always careful to set myself a limit of what Im prepared to lose.
