        The only thing better than gambling and winning is gambling and losing.

                  That's what losers tell themselves to avoid depression.

                          OK, but to say no one is getting rich is just misinformed. It is possible to win, consistently and a lot.

                            Good question. I think it has to do with the brain chemical , dopamine. From long ago reading.

                              I don't enjoy just ANY type of gambling. It needs to be something that has a mathematical chance of winning and not "simply" pure luck. Not real good at either LOL

                                  I **** my pants when I lose. I hate losing. I go ballistic sometimes after a loss.

                                    Same reason alcoholics and drug addicts keep drinking and shooting dope when their life is circling the drain.

                                      i do it for the fun of it. it gives me a rush when i place that bet and have a chance to win money. key is only betting what i deem as "fun" money. if i can win some while doing it even better.

                                        Because every time you win two in a row, you are on to something.

                                                      It’s one of the most mysterious things of all times, I probably lost a little today and I’m already excited to bet tomorrow

                                                        I actually get more of a thrill when I "almost" win. When the games goes down to the wire and I lose. I love the feeling.

                                                            It is fascinating that everyone has the choice to only make good bets that are +EV, yet so many people choose not to. Could never understand it.

                                                              I’m the total opposite, after a losing day I wanna take a day off losing turns me off. The more I win the more I gamble.
