Firstly, you have to be honest on why you spend time here or any casino. If you are here for the thrill of making fast money, then you will mostly 98% feeling bad as you will not make fast money, you will lose money fast and won't enjoy it. There are plenty of ways to make money fast with high risk that is not the casino. You see casino is a NEGATIVE SUM experience, You can't beat that math. You cannot have an edge, You may win sometimes, but the longer you play, over the years you will lose far more. Sure some people win the lottery. That's like getting struck by lightening.

Do you know why gambling was deregulated so abundantly? It's a tax on the poor. People don't like paying taxes, so gambling was a way to disguise a government tax on the people, and unfortunate as it's mostly the poorer people in society, and it's brilliantly disguised it as entertainment. 

However, if you used to like computer games when you were younger, loved the production, the music, the graphics etc, but are just not into playing those games anymore as they're just too demanding on your relaxing time. Firing up a slot, pumping up the sound, sitting back with a Pina Colada (there's a reason that song is called Escape  for all you who know) and spending an hour enjoying the experience, fantastic. You are most likely going to lose, but a PS5 games is like $70. Or going to the cinema etc. They cost money to be entertained. So if you are entertained even though you are going to spend some money, then you are enjoying yourself and the cost is worth it. And yes, once in a blue moon, you get a juicy bonus round, and that experience is great fun, especially if sharing with your friends or partners.

How many people do that though? As that is what you are supposed to do. You don't go to the cinema and stay all day watch every movie and eat all the over priced snaks, that would be unhealthy and not enjoyable and society would deem you as someone with issues.

Now Sports, especially horse racing. This is a real thing, that if you are really into it, and understand everything about it right down to the handicapping. This, you can make a lot of money, and there's 200 races a day from USA to AU and they go off all the time. Horses, unlike humans and their professional sports, are very predictable and consistent. This is why they have to be handicapped, as the people who own and look after these animals, deserve to get 10 years out of them, and that's why they handicap (add weights) so that even the most mediocre horse has as good a chance of winning, as the latest stud on the block. Of course I've made this very simple for you buy you get the idea,

And the reason horse racing is pure, unlike stock markets and premiership sports, is there isn't enough money in the market for hedge funds and big city players etc, to get involved. Your typical UK horse race has about $250k in the market. That's plenty of money for people to make nice wins, but not enough for Eddie Gumbles and Black Rock, to manipulate the games through paying players and refs etc etc. I mean, how fixed was the Super Bowl, last 2 years. It's nothing new. Stock market, exactly the same, all inside trading, retail players have no chance.

So, budget your slot playing to what you would for movies and PS5 games, stay away from table games, as you're not really getting much entertainment for your money. Don't bet on sports unless you have an edge, and make Eddie bring the US and AU PONIES to Stake, and give people some value, and then, Stake would deserve respect again. As it is, we all know it's shamless how it's ended up being operated.

Be good people. have fun. And here's a great piece of advice. Every week the money you've budgeted for gambling, give half of it to your most loved one, get them to kick you in the nuts, and call it even. You've just made someone very happy and you still have half your money

Olso I recommend everyone to watch Chevy Chase Vegas Vacation, as that is where that fantastic line is lifted from, and it has an ending that can't help make you smile. Oh, and true fact, there's a horse running at Parx at the moment called Nick Papagiorgio. Those who know the film know how funny that it is. Horses are truly mans best friend, proper characters

I honestly prefer sites that are smaller and have a close community where everyone gets seen but if you're gonna lose your money this is definitely the place for it. 😅

I don't regret joining the stake. I made a lot of friends and stake helped me too.. ❤️❤️

which friends you made bro? 

[xia15]

I dont. Stake is very interactive with the players and have tons of slots to play. Not mention all the promos and giveaways. If you dont have self control on gambling, you will surely regret because it's addicting.

 

 

[stevenc]

na, it's fun when you can manage
