    For some unknown reason the gambling gods seem to let us win the first time we gamble. A bet, slot, casino for many of us the first time results in a win of some kind. My question is when it’s out of our control do we win on that first deposit with luck or are we been allowed to win to drag us in ?. Every online casino or poker site I have ever registered with I have instantly won barr one site. There must be at 15 sites combined and looking back the first deposit £20 or so I ended up withdrawing a profit. Poker sites seemed to be notorious for this. 888 gave £1 free on registration which I won £18 just on small cash games. Even the first community tournament organised here I joined poker stars. First deposit and had everything in the first hour barring royal flush ( someone else got that ?) . Even when I used to go to gala bingo ( yes I’m an old git) I would sit there with 96 tickets per game. New people would join have 6 tickets on their touch pad and win house after house while I sat trying to work out the odds as I had 16 times more chance of winning. Is this just me or does it happen to everyone?

    Personally I think it’s a myth or I’m just that unlucky haha. When I signed up to Stars I won absolutely nothing for the first few weeks, same with 888 poker….I had a few wins on Party Poker but nothing spectacular (min cashing tournaments) although a few weeks later I was reckless on Roulette and won my biggest ever score on it. I signed up to Casumo and won £200 after losing around that same amount and signed up to Videoslots and made 3 deposits adding up to £150 and barely got above the starting amount before losing it all. Thinking about it I’ve only ever had 2 decent scores that will stand out 1.8k on roulette on Party Poker and turning $100 on Stars into $3000 before getting tilted bubbling the Sunday Storm and tilting it all away on roulette. Other than that I got lucky the first time playing a Fobt turning £20 into £150 and walking away although there was no way for the machine to know I was a new player so I’ll say that it’s just a myth from my own experiences. 🙂

    Your first venture into Gambling is usually with money easily afforded to lose which it’s soon forgotten. The mind has a great way of remembering the first big win, everything before that is forgotten hence beginners luck. There’s my two penneth lol.

    Take some wise words off a guy that’s spent a good part of his life spending his “hard earned” on gambling .Never, never, never let your child gamble in any shape or form, drum it into them how bad it can be for people, tough love as they say.

    Would love to turn back the clock and start again.

    Not being a depressing fucker, just the way I feel.

     

    Much Love.

    I really think the same ,I will never let my kids gamble they will be told how bad it is from my personal history and there mother will tell them the same , The high of gambling never out weigh the lows ,that feeling of a big win is good ,but its does not compare to the lows as most here will know the lows will always come and that feeling can haunt you ,personaly i have lost many nights sleep with the lows silly toughts going trew your head ,I hope if i do good by my kids they will never feel the pain iv put my head trew in so many years

    First time i tried slots i got 2 big wins for just over a grand in total, have not been close to that since so I feel there’s something to be said for beginners luck.
