On gambling: What was the biggest win you've had from a casino trip?

Win $1k or get covid? HMMM. Lol.

Or lose $1k and get Covid. :woozy_face:

OMG you’re right lol I didn’t even think about that! :rofl: What a great deal HAHA.

I have been to both Atlantic City, and Las Vegas and have NEVER even put a coin in a slot machine. I don’t gamble ( unless you count last spring when I was making a $2000 Grand a Day for a few weeks then got greedy kept blowing my account racked up $10 Grand in Credit Card Debit…sooooo before you say it ponponwei WAS NOT MAKING ANYTHING :joy: Lost MY MIND.
Las Vegas just seemed Sad and fake. You look at a hotel from the street and by the time you go in and come back out … No Kidding you have walked 3 Miles to go inside 1 place.

Hahaha yes! That and you never know what time it is! It’s hilarious!

DAAAYUM. That’s a lot yo. :scream:

Couple hundred bucks playing craps. It’s fun to watch other people. I tend to always leave with LESS money in my pocket.

I haven’t been to an actual casino but I won 5k on an online slot a few years ago.

I have never played in a real casino. But I use to play in online, the biggest won was 2k$, in total lost around 1500$ so I earned 500$)) which is not so big, but it’s just about having some fun.

On a certain extent, I see the similarities in gambling and trading. Some concepts in Finance, I think, are very much applicable to both. But I think it’s exactly why most people fail in trading Forex. Because they relate it so much with gambling, that their mentality when trading is very much like as if they’re gambling, which shouldn’t be! Trading mentality should very much be like investing, you build and grow your wealth over time.

Whoa thats a lot! What’s this online casino might just pay it a visit LOL.

Yup, that’s really all there is to it.

Had a £12k WIlliam Hill online win about 7 years ago

Went to casinos with friends but not a big fan though. But I would like to watch my friends playing.

Doesn’t that get boring though? :sweat_smile: I guess unless they gamble like there’s no tomorrow.

I don’t think it’s boring - it’s all the fun of gambling minus the risk, haha. :smiley:

But you don’t have skin in the game! lol. I usually get bored watching my friends. And if I am I’d add my money to their bets :joy:

Forex trading is enough excitement for me, to be honest. :sweat_smile:
Where I have personal stakes in, that is.

True. But why not add more excitement by adding more markets lol :joy:

Markets, yes, but gambling isn’t really part of the market. Not for me anyway. Not that I am judging gamblers - as I said, I like watching, but I know what my own limits are.

I don’t play that much, and especially now, but there are a couple of fun stories from when I was younger.
