GAMBLING πŸ’°πŸŽ²πŸ’ŽπŸ€‘
#1
Casinos, lottery tickets, slot machines, poker, dice, betting on games, you name it! You see tons of people playing these games because they want immediate, cash results. Hell, they all want a taste of the high life. If you don't gamble, then you'll never understand why people become ADDICTED or play in the first place. Look, I get it... people are broke, penniless, starving, down on their luck, and homeless. They want to live these fancy lifestyles where they drive nice cars, drink champagne, date beautiful women, smoke expensive cigars, buy nice clothes, own fancy Rolex watches, travel wherever they want, live in nice houses, you name it! πŸ€‘πŸ€ 

But sometimes, they don't know when to quit gambling. So they become ADDICTED and empty their life savings from work to feed their ADDICTION. All the glitz and glamour, the Benjamins flashing in your face, and the lifestyle suddenly becomes far richer than what you've ever had before. You hit the lottery for $1 million and all of a sudden you're on top of the moon. Forget about your job, you got money, honey! In fact, you've got money you've never even touched before. I'm talking big money like six and seven figures. You might get a lucky streak here and there, but then what happens when you lose? You don't know anything about investing, so you'll end up like THESE guys! Do you gamble, folks?

@Uptight 534 Yeah the IRS doesn't play any games. They want their money immediately. Since the Super Bowl LVIII is coming up this Sunday, I already know a lot of people are going to be betting on the game.

I've gone to a casino once with my uncle, we did one round of roulette and won nothing then went on to playing Blackjack. He had given me $50 to gamble with and I quickly lost it all while playing Blackjack, I then pulled out $50 of my own money and eventually I worked my way up to over $150. I decided if I dropped back down to $150 I would stop right there, and that's exactly what happened. I gave my uncle $50 back which meant I doubled my money and I was completely satisfied with that.

I've also bought lottery tickets (most or all Powerball), more than I should have but not a huge amount. I've only won $4 each on like 2 or 3 numbers

Roulette sounds like a fun game to play. Personally, I've never played before, but it looks like a game of chance from what I've heard. On the other hand, at least you set your limits and you knew when to stop playing. Some people would have called $150 lucky and kept on going.

I think the Powerball is a lot more difficult because it takes 6 numbers to win. I'm used to playing a game that's only 5.

I don't bet/gamble w/ money because I don't find it too interesting really. If I wanna play poker or blackjack I'll play it for free (no bets) w/ ppl, betting is just gonna put too much stress/anger in the way of it.

Closest thing I do probs is when I go to the arcade and use the 2p pushers and similar stuff, but I just basically take Β£5/Β£10 whilst being there with friends/family or whatnot and I expect to use it all up. Any prizes you get from it are just bonuses (most of them are cheap toys you'd never really use anyway and can probs find for 50p somewhere) with it just being a social time, so I don't see it as gambling since the amount is set beforehand and all used. I don't play the stuff like the crane game though lmao because it's boring, expensive, and rigged in an RNG way.

Those crane machines are basically designed to take your money and nothing else. Speaking of which... the video below pretty much sums up what you're talking about lmfao πŸ˜‚ Crane game starts at 0:15.

I do play on the regular, slightly more if the jackpot is over $500 million. I like draw games such as Mega Millions, Powerball and Cash4Life. I was never a fan of scratch offs and used to play them as a minor. lol
