Please read this Wiki about Ted Ngoy.
The Cambodian American Doughnut King and Gambler.
This story has been around and a lot know it and so many do not. Gambling is dangerous as I say, yet—addicting and so many face it and lose to it because they are oblivious and believe they will not be effected by their own actions/reactions to gambling.
I have said many times and I will continue to say, you cannot truly win until you experience loss, serious and larger losses. The problem being, your mind-frame becomes warped and you lose all sense of what is right and wrong and reality. Those that truly can control themselves, realize what reality actually is and understand the game of baccarat and how to gamble the correct way, few can do rather well at it without suffering the likes of this story or anything like it. Problem is, almost all that win have no idea that they actually just harmed and moved themselves into bankruptcy and personal devastation.

Enjoy and remember Donuts can lead you to a fortune if you know how to handle them! Also, gambling can take it away and remove you from a 7,000 sq. ft home to sleeping on a porch in Cambodia with your kids!
But go ahead and do not listen to me! Win $25,000.00 and then go win $100,000.00 and so on, and see what happens. Later on, come back here and let me know. There is a right way and a wrong way and most have no idea!
And, I have seen it happen to a few. Each one said, "It won't happen to me". Each one. I am not saying this to be funny, but each person said the same exact thing.
