Share you a story, my secondary schoolmate who love gamble and let's call him "Mr.O". Even in school, this guy would gamble like almost anything. Imagine this, in hari sukan, he managed to gather some students for a bet. Say 100m sprint race, which house from which grade will win etc. Even in chess tournament, he still do the same shit. Now he ended up in overseas, I don't know where but here's why he ran away.

Is he rich? No he just like us, from mid level family, not rich not poor.

After graduated from secondary school, like most of us here we lost contact with some of our schoolmate. and some still be friend with us until the end I think, well you get the point.

On year 2018, I met one of my schoolmate on sepang circuit. He's running a car painting business with his uncle, so we catching up a bit. Then he mentioned Mr. O, then I remember this guy love gamble and I jokingly ask "What he ran a casino in Genting now?". Surprisingly. after graduate he kind of jobless, ended up guarding those illegal slot or mesin kuda as we know. That one gamble he made, a soccer game(I don't know which matches or team). My friend said Mr. O lost huge sum of money, sold almost everything including his car and kapcai bike to cover the lost. His parent found out, force him to move out and work with his aunt in her restaurant(Been there few times when we were in secondary school). That gambling habit still there, same shit but this time he cannot cover the lost. People start coming to find him in his aunt restaurant, even his parent's house. The family cannot tahan, disown him and cast him out. My friend said he heard Mr. O ran to Thailand, Singapore or Australia or maybe still in Malaysia, no one know.

From that story, bet big or small, if you cannot cover the lost, don't do it. My advice is try looking for other hobby, spend your money wisely or on your hobby. Get a gunpla, drone, maybe modify cars, gaming computer or anything but gambling.

The only long term strategy is not play, bro.

The next best best strat is to stick to roulette. It has the best odds of all the other games apparently.

there are very few people can sustain themselves by gambling. Even my circles there are people i know are professional poker players. They always have side business or hustles to sustain.

The house is always raising the rakes trying to destroy the ecosystem because the big boss is casino.

Actually, they are pretty stupid. Because they never came out with a strategy on how to win. Of course if you just simply put you will lose. Actually, I see how ppl act, I already know what kind of ppl they are already. Those ppl who loose money are those kind of taxi drivers etc. Go buy lottery with almost zero chance of winning. And dun use strategy or too dumb to think of 1.

There is no strategy that can guarantee you winning 100% of the time over the long run. Otherwise casino won't be so rich. Even card counting strategy can be destroyed by the casino by simply shuffling the cards.

when you always win, that when the problem starts.

I got relatives.... go genting gamble. first is for fun spend Rm500-2000 to gamble during holidays, etc...
win win win... all the time. Decided to up the pot since always win, RM5000-10,000

still win win win... and then start to go down hill from there onwards.
Gamble more and more, hoping to win and recover the loss.

Initially like won over 200k, end up lost like 500-1m, we dont really know how much lost already.
borrow ah long money, sell all the valuables, etc...

according to another relative also who always go gamble, when you gamble big and gamble small for fun, your attitude or behaviour changes
it is no longer for fun but the trill and when you go down hill, you will want to chase it back and quit. but you will not quit and still chase.

if you are up, either stop or reduce the frequency or amount.

I used to go genting a lot many years back, every week also go, win target RM50-200, cover fuel and makan minum there. After knowing this relative story I also stop gambling, petrol/toll/makan is small amount only, attitude at genting also change to lighter mood.

Actually there are ways of actually winning in sports betting. And there are actually professional sports betters around. I am not a professional but I have a consistent winning record over this few months or even for the previous years(But maybe no lose no win)

Malaysians are just too unsophisticated to see that.

But then what can I say. Most of the ppl who gamble here are those ah pek types. What I can say.

Anyway. Most of you are probably even going to report this post. I have a person in the badminton forum getting so upset with me when I said I was winning consistently.

There is a difference between ordinary ppl vs me. Based on my post, you guys should have already realized that I actually use analytics and strategies. But it's ok. Most of you are "uncles" anyway.

And I even dare say that my "luck" is not that good also.

In order to win over the house in long term, you need to cheat. No amount of strategy or analytic can win over. The law of probability holds.

I believe those once addicted to gambling/smoking/drinking can never be a social gambler/smoking etc ever again cuz it might awaken the sleeping demon in their mind.

So the only way is to never start again once stop.

And also they cannot make it such that everyone loses. So there are always loopholes.

In sports betting there are odds like say betting someone to win is only 0.01. Of course this one have a high probability of winning but returns is very low.

But ppl like you probably cannot even understand basic stuff.
