Your Wins/Losses in Non-Poker related gambling
2+2 is a poker community where lots of pople are winning money. But poker is also gambling, and a lot of poker players have some gambooool in them, so I was wondering what non-poker related game do you play the most and how you've fared in them?

Re: Your Wins/Losses in Non-Poker related gambling
This poll is too vague. Just because you're not playing poker, doesn't mean it's -EV gambooooooooling. I've done a lot of bonus whoring playing BJ, VP, craps, baccarat, and sports betting.

The casino whoring aspect really changes this... and Video Poker is a must for this poll.

Re: Your Wins/Losses in Non-Poker related gambling
I'm assuming that we are counting blackjack or VP whoring as still blackjack or VP. So I am up way more than in just normal playing. Probably up like $5-$10K with whoring, and maybe up like $1K (just by pure chance) with normal playing.

Re: Your Wins/Losses in Non-Poker related gambling
I have seven clubs that will give RFB anytime -- and one that will do RFBA. I often value that more than my winnings, even though I never include it in my accounting. I've seen all of the major entertainment over the last 30 years, from the best seats in the house -- and frequently been invited backstage. How do you put a value on that?

Ex semi pro horseplayer. Winnings over 6 figures. Still love horseracing but poker has so much less variance and I don't have to work as hard at poker. I will return one day.
