    My first 3 years in gambling a lost $7,500 per year. But the last 8 years... I made profits. With late 2010 being my biggest gain ever. It's just like anything in life... you need experience. Poor money management is the death to anyone.

    Why would I stop? I knew I had it in me. I had to prove to myself I could do it. I didn't see it as a 22.5k loss? Don't you go to college and lose 22k in education for one year? Or a couple of years? I didn't expect to win right from the start... I wanted to know why I lost the games I did... what my pattern was. I figured it out.

    was down big in my first two years of gambling.....this is my third year and i havent reloaded in the past 1 year. Oh and I made back all the money i had lost and some more ....as you gain experience, you will become better. People who dont adapt, will continue to lose.
