New gambling career!!!!!!!!!!!? - Allan - 04-08-2014 07:46 PM
Hey everyone I wanted to ask you guys if you think gambling is a good second job. Basically I'm going to deposit 1000$ as my start. I will only be winning 10 to 15 a hour so once I win 10$ I will close the program and watch tv. Basically 10 to 15 hours a day is almost 200$. I was wondering if you guys think this is a good idea I will only be playing baccarat and roulette the only 50 percent chance games. I will not chase and keep my bets at 5 and under and I will never raise my bets meaning lost I can lose is 50$ which is 10 or more straight hands before I say it's a bad day. Compared to 50 on a losing day and 200 on a winning day I think it's a good ide. Just wanted everyone's opinion and also I wanted to know if you guys know if online casinos will always pay out if I win 10 to 15 a hour and log off. Thanks.

Either of those game is 50%, you have no clue dude. Do read a few books on gambling before you squander all you money, Cheers.
Casinos exist because foolish people think they can bet the house, which they cannot.

No. I'm not sure about baccarat but roulette has the highest house edge in an entire casino. You do not understand percentages or house edge at all I think this is a very bad idea for you. Maybe someone good at a game like poker could do this but defiantly not you.
Just a quick note on roulette: They pay x35 your money but there are 38 numbers on the wheel. And the 2 green 0's make betting red or black not 50-50 chance.
Bad idea for you.

So professional casino players do quite well. However, those who are just starting out do not consider the risks involve. In order to achieve while playing in the casino, it will take ability and skill. Most of the poker players have been playing for years. It is a good idea to start online and using free play or no deposit casinos that will give you money to play with. Over time you can improve your skill to the point that you can make money.
