How To Get Rich From Gambling

How To Get Rich From Gambling By Elton Camp Probabilities is what gambling is all about With enough trials, probability will work out Though gambling will put most in the ditch, There also is a way from it to get filthy rich Chances stay the same for each random event Ignore that and wonder where your money went This, the gambler’s mind may almost derange It’s not true that “My luck is bound to change.” If you flip a coin & get heads 100 times in a row The probability for tails is still one-half, though It is a very foolish and dangerous logical slip To think as if the coin has some memory chip A certain slot machine hasn’t paid off for a year Should you rush to use it if that fact you hear? No matter what some people will insist to say The odds are no better than on the first day So for getting rich these facts don’t bode too well But how wealth can be achieved I will now tell If you want to keep your financial matters straight, Then it’s the gambling house you must operate It’s true that gamblers may make an occasional win, But nearly all will just lose it back to the house again So if, of the casino, you are the wealthy owner Only then will your money not soon be a goner
