When in a bad streak you can just put in $5 a game.
You get the thrill/fun without the pain.
Hang in there you'll get on a winning streak again.

I never contended that you or anyone else placed bets with the intention of losing. I never kick anyone when they are down and my statement was directed more at the world than to you personally. How many sports' gamblers or gamblers in general end up winners?
One of the most famous gamblers of all time was a Greek/American named Nick 'the Greek' Dandolos (not Jimmy 'the Greek' Snyder). Dandolos made his gambling fortune in the beginning in the race tracks in Canada. He was a math wizard and he discovered that he could make money betting on every horse in every race by varying the sums. Claimed he beat them out of one million dollars before they caught on.
Dandolos was a high stakes' card player, craps player, sports' gambler, you name he bet it. He was equally at home with the big time mob figures of his day or the royalty in Europe. He read philosophy, literature, and poetry so he was a bit of an intellectual.
Near the end of his life a writer taped Dandolos in order to capture his life story for a book...Cyrus Rice's "Nick the Greek: King of the Gamblers". It is a fascinating read...
In the end, even he ended up broke...didn't have enough at the time of his death to afford a gravestone. His place of rest went unmarked for many years until an admirer from Chicago visited his grave-site in Las Vegas City cemetery and he bought a very nice head stone. It read "Nick the Greek Dandolos philosopher and sage" and it had a pair of dice with a yo eleven engraved...which is puzzling to me as Nick was a famous don't pass and don't come bettor.
