Rayne Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Which games do you like the most of all? Have you ever won money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alatartheblue42 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Yes, I gamble. I play FGO, Dragalia Lost, FEH, and Another Eden. No, I've never won money. I'm legally too young to gamble in casinos and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Karnage Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I did once. I was with my grandfather on a cruise ship, he gave me $40 to play with. I won $80 playing black jack I then lost it all because I was unknowingly counting cards and didn't realize they shuffled 5 decks together to prevent that. I then lost all the extra cash I brought with me. I think I may have a little or with gambling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertrick36 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I gamble... ... in Fallout New Vegas... ... but always with a luck stat of 7 or higher so that I can actually win. In real life, I've never gambled in my life. Make it a habit not to gamble under any types of gambling establishments, whether they be physical casinos or websites. House edge is a major deterring factor. That being said, gambling is not bad so long as you're ensuring that the money you're dumping into the vice is money you set aside for recreation purposes only. Basic budgeting plays a key role in responsible gambling; don't use money you'd need for important expenses or debts. And I'd also say don't use all of your recreation money, either, because you might need some of it for later in case of emergencies. I might be willing to play low stakes games of poker and other such games of chance with friends, but that's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I played online Poker with cash about a decade ago. I won a pre qualifiers tournament, but not the final round, so nothing overall. Today I do not gamble with cash anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zangetsu Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Does gacha count? Either way, I have before but it's not an addiction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lau Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 If gacha counts, then yeah, I play FEH. If not, then yeah, I'll occassionally put a quid on the football, or Eurovision - when it's on. Think the most I've won was £25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Strategist Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 If the Gme Corner in older Pokémon games counts, then yes! On rare occasions anyway. Although, my mum and sister play card games with my sister's kids, teaching them the fundamentals of some games that might be played in a casino (for literal 1p and 2p coins set aside for them to play with) and I occasionally joke that they should all raid a casino together. Outside of those cases, I wouldn't say I'm around much gambling very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrymidfields Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I sometimes bet at the horses for Melbourne Cup Day, which is something many Australians do. Many offices (including mine) give staff an opportunity to enter $5-10 in. I occasionally put in $15-20 total to the betting agencies for tickets. Of course, I rarely make a profit when the bookkeeper takes home half the total proceeds lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kivan Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) Yeah, I gamble sometimes, it's one of my hobbies but I'm definetely not an unhealthy addict to this I'm just a competitive person in general and I like different games so for me it's just fun and pleasure. It's cool when I win some money (I was lucky several times) but I'm not sad at all when I lose, winning money isn't my main goal in playing. And in case of gambling I like casino, sports bettings and poker the most of all, I play really often the last one with my friends and it's a great fun. And I'm a huge fan of football as also some teams like my favourite Atletico PR from Brazil https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil_national_football_team so I adore to make bets https://bet365-pt.com/ on it during matches. But I always control my money investing in gambling, that's why I've never lost too much money like that happens with some people.

Jingle Jangle Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Excluding Fire Emblem Heroes and Fate Grand Order, I frequently play gambling games at arcades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword_of_Dusk Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Yep, I do. I visit the casino every now and then, when I have enough money to safely gamble without using up critical funds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure the Scale Tipper Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Well, I do spend money in FEH (though rarely). It still feels like gambling when you have not even spent money and just saved some orb stockpile over the month. Then again, it may as well just be considered borderline under the law. Aside from that, while I am of age (almost barely), I do not intend to. I really want to go to Vegas to try out the Heart Attack Grill.

Zapp Branniglenn Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Just got back from a trip to vegas and I did some casual 21. Didn't go so well. My luck was good, the dealer's was better. I lost every hand consecutively until I ran out of chips by exactly 1, even the dealer felt sorry for me. Especially on the hand where she drew three cards and turned her 3 into a 21. C'mon. The one time I pumped some money into Heroes went just as poorly. Though in the future I'd much sooner spend some money at the card table than on Heroes. There's no rules or strategy when it comes to summoning, and the amount of orbs I get as a F2P has always sufficed for what I want to accomplish in the game. Plus my luck summoning with F2P orbs has been pretty stellar, at least in my singular perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoblongoo Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) Not really, no. Anyway I look at it, it’s just pissing money away. Don’t get the appeal. (I’ll throw like $15 into a prize pool for a Magic: The Gathering draft. That’s about it.) Edited April 10, 2019 by Shoblongoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub Zero Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Every now and then. I'm very careful and conservative with my money, so my body kinda forces me out when it starts getting into critical territory. Have struck big a couple of times though, so that's nice I guess.

NoirCore Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 @~ Yuri ~May I point out the hilarious irony to your avatar? :P Anyways, I don't do so with real money, but I went to an event where I gambled tokens through playing Blackjack. I did really good in that session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tediz64 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I've played the Powerball a few times for fun and I've been to a casino but I didn't win. It was a nice experience. Doubt I'd want to gamble anymore though. I dislike hearing no follow up stories on the people who win the jackpot. I think people need to know what happens after you win. Some people don't realize winning millions of dollars usually ends up with you being miserable shortly after. I've read a few stories of jackpot winners ending up assassinated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
