Howdy, MyLotters, I wonder, if any of you have tried to earn money with betting?
I personally have tried betting on sports. The first time I started to bet I managed to double the ammount of money I invested but I didn't cash it out in the right moment. I got excited and wanted that sum to grow even bigger, but then misfortune started to hit me: I used to bet only on 100% sure games, but suddenly the 100% winner teams started to lose the matches to weak teams, it was temporary bad luck, but it was enough to destroy my money. Since then I don't bet anymore.
I would like to hear about your experiences with betting. Have you managed to earn some serious profit with betting?

Hye Biomechanoid,
Betting is somewhat fun somtimes. I enjoy betting with my friends (but not that serious kind of way). We usually bet in a game of poker, pool and even chess (not that profitable, that for sure). I enjoy betting but only to things or games where win or lose depend on my own ability to play. I'd never bet on things that depend purely on luck such as lottery and so on. I just don't trust my luck. LOL!
When betting on a game, those pressure and fear of losing (because you'll lost your money) somehow make you want to do the best, I often found myself capable of doing something that i never imagine i could do before which therefore dramatically boost my confidences... it was refreshing! LOL

Heh, I know what you mean! I used bet only when I was able to somehow affect my winnings, like sports where I can choose the team that I'm betting on. I think that betting also increases my interest to a particular game. I mean, if I don't bet, then I don't have any willing to waste time watching it (of course if it isn't the game I really like), but if I've placed my money on one or another team, then it excites me, I want to see the game, want to support the team I placed my money on:D
Thanks for response!;)

I don't do any serious betting as i always seem to lose! Even when i bet without any money- just for fun! On games etc, i still lose. It's something i'm slightly addicted to however! Don't think i'll try any serious betting 'til i got a nice amount of money to waste. ;)

I kind of know what you're feeling. I usually don't have much luck in any lotteries or betting/gambling. Even if I manage to win some money, the next moment I'll surely lose it. But yea, it gets you addicted and excited! Thanks for responding!:)
