    Do you gamble to lose?
    I've heard some say they do. They need a loss to feel as if their still alive. Any truth to this? Do you know someone like this?

    A lot of your useless threads remind me a lot of that idiot fightingwarrior's threads, just admit you needed to start over we will all respect you for it.

            tons of guys win at certain sports from time to time...if you arent modeling/middling/scalping/arbing, you are going to lose long term... guys who think they have a "system" or a "better feel" than others, unfortunately, are only fooling themselves.

                    yes, why else would anyone gamble. You do it to lose money. I love losing money. When I'm bored, I take a walk and "accidentally" drop $100 bills on the sidewalk and walk away.

                          We love the risk

                          If we won all the time then no risk then we would not gamble

                          We are risk takers

                              that's what all the losers say.

                              You must learn from your mistakes.

                                    No one will admit it. But I have heard that there is something scientific to this theory. Gamblers deep inside want to lose. I feel like I want to win money, but who knows I guess. Everybody is messed up.

                                      People gamble because they want to WIN, or at least, feel what it's like to be a winner. They want to be good at it and they will risk their money trying.

                                      More often than not, after losing money on a wager a gambler will continue to keep betting in hopes of recouping their losses.

                                      So how can it be a matter of "wanting to lose"?

                                          No one wants to lose, that's for sure.

                                                Most compulsive gamblers, some who may not even realize it, bet to lose. I wonder what the percentage is here on compulsive gamblers? (I'd have to think at least half.)

                                                      Easy way to tell if you gamble for the thrill: do you play casino?
