Mentality of gambling

[John1234]

There is a discussion that I have been meaning to post but I cannot find the proper place to post it on this forum. This forum has everything about gambling but I do not see anything about the mentality of gambling {I could be missing something though} I think that this is very important to having success.

I posted a very long post over on my forum if anybody would like to view it. Maybe some of you will be able to provide some good insight.

I will not post the link. If you want the link then either PM me or go to the baccarat section and click  on my post about my forum and you will find the link there.

thanks

There's a subject!

First, they're artists to a degree.  Sometimes they like to draw pictures with chips as their medium.  Never found it necessary to critique.  It has so much dimension.  There's symetry. . . . . . . . balance. . . . . losing money lots of it, emotion, tecture. . . . . . they could even sneak in sacred geometry if they were a real astute creative gambler.

Come on! Who hasn't seen some snot nosed frat boy come up to the table and play a cute little pattern of chips on the layout.  It could be manny different types of gamblas.  That's just an example.

That would be funny if two gamblers were playing roulette checkers to compete with each other and not the casino.  One bets straight up on all "odds".  The other bets straight up on all the "evens" and they bet just like it was a checkers game.  Just a dumb system idea that poped in my head as I was remeniscing about the mind of a gambler.

There's this guy I know that amuses me.  I can't stop laughing when I meet him at the roulette table.  He's a likable guy but a cartoonishly silly gambler.  I always see him and always sais he's been there all day.  And he's keep saying "okay this is my last bet" And everytime it loses, he disapears (goes to the ATM) and reapears again in ten minuts pretending like he's just walked into the casino on his lucky day.  Occasionally he get that big win and you know he's excited because he starts commenting on the nice ass that just walked by.  I always can't help but role around the table laughing at him.  It makes my casino trip amusing.

That would actually be fun.

He probably losses more money with those high atm withdraw fees. An atm at a casino once tried to charge me $8 to take my money out.
