30 years of gambling, almost all online horse racing has got me confused and conflicted. It is the strangest addiction and I have said to myself over and over, nobody can be as unlucky as I have been in the history of planet earth. Over 30 years I have lost close to $700,000. About $20,000 a year wasted and thousand of hours of my life gone! I keep playing because I cannot believe that I can keep losing. Even the law of large numbers isn’t averaging my win-loss ratio. My entire life betting has been like this: pick 9 numbers out of 10, and it will be the one number not picked that wins. IT IS CRAZY! I have played over 20,000 races online and have nothing to show for it but losses. I have never won anything north of $3K in a race in 30 years. And get this, I lose 99% of close calls! It is unexplainable how someone can be on the wrong end of every single close call at the wire. NO WAY can this be a human thing. It is INTERVENTION by something more powerful than us human robots. I’m not sure what is worse, losing almost a million dollars or having the worst luck for over 30 years. I convince myself that it has to change, but it hasn’t. I am believing that in this world there are groups that every single person belongs to and that the lucky ones are in similar groups and the unlucky ones in a like group, but unlucky. So am I addicted because of my belief that I cannot continue to be this unlucky and keep gambling to prove it wrong?

Weather we are lucky or unlucky it does not matter a compulsive gambler will never ever win in the long run. If you dont’t win You will want to keep trying till you do. If you do win you will want to win again and by trying to do so you will loose. The only way to really win is to surrender.
