one third of your annual income in one night is a good lesson as well! :)My wife @countrylover and I have used the online gambling sites. I don't think either of us chewed through more than 10 BTC, her a tenth of that I think; but these days it's worth a lot more! I think it was under $100 when I was exploring those sites. They seem to be coded such that I lose, whether they actually have colluding bots or not, so like you I decided not to continue. Of course, losing
I do enjoy a game of poker though! In-person is better, albeit generally with less of a potential upside.
Yeah poker in person for a social night is good, knowing and having limits is also a good thing. 👍🔝👏
