£5 four fold on football is all for me! Play to win, not gamble!

I always bet on 4 teams, all 4 are away, aiming for top vs bottom sides, and wack on average £60.

I've started doing football bets again, its better than roulette because with roulette you have to actually be there enduring the event while you lose your money, but with football you can put the bet on and get on with your day as various football teams lose your money for you.

Used to do well! Well up for years but not had a four fold for nearly two years now! Only low stakes but still a heartbreaker when theres a minute to go and jeff stelling pipes up "News just in, equaliser at, ,,,,,,,,,,"! Gutting!

You're all gamblers cos even though you have the edge you are still not gtd to win so to me every fruit player unless on a mt is a gambler simple

Even when you cross the road you're gambling.

Beep! Beeeeep! Smack!

Its the age old debate...

A gamble is only not a gamble if there's a +ev and an infinite amount of attempts.

But logically if you're winning most of the time without an infinite amount of attempts, it's still beyond all reasonable that it's doubt no longer a gamble, it just depends on how you want to view the idea of playing fruit machines, and how pedantic you want to be about the definitions.

Obviously it all depends on how good you are really

You win on most days but not every machine i say your still taking a chance no matter how “good" you are

Strictly speaking you are correct.
