🤣

@Tens Flavo You serious? Barkley made a little over $43 million in player salary, half of that or close to half of it went to his agent and taxes. So he was left with like $22 million. He pissed away at least half of that money away by gambling.

Lol, you think he didn’t invest his earnings and make many times more? You think he let just it sit in the bank or something? Plus his endorsement deals, plus he’s been on a rather large contract from TNT for the last 20 years. 20 million dollars is a lot of money and it’s not nothing even to someone like Barkley but come on, get real, this was money he could afford to gamble away.

Charles talks out his ass most of the time though so who knows what he really spends

I've lost a million dollars in a day at least ten times. Yeah sure who hasn't, but has it ever gotten out of hand for you?

That's why you play poker, not gamble.

HeartlessXiao poker is gambling. It’s just that it has the best odds. You can’t tell me when you go all in with A-A and you flopped a set of aces and then you lose to a flush draw that there’s no gambling involved. At the end of the day you are still relying on a certain amount of chance/luck, hence it’s still gambling.

There is no winning at the casino

*had*

But he can afford it

He ain’t no where near broke! So it ain’t a problem if u got it!!!!

@@peteypitts1461 its not that simple...

I've watched a number of interviews for graham and a lot of the people he interviews seem like great story tellers. I think it is more the host of the shows who knows how to have his guest open up about their interesting experiences in life.

Graham strikes me very authentic...I'd be stuttering, gawking too. At Sir Charles telling me "I've tipped dealers 75K. 100K..so damn nonchalantly....it's gotta b true! Love it👁️

Maybe you should learn to spell first so that Charles doesn’t think he would be talking to an idiot.

Bro I could listen to his stories the rest of my life

I agree with everything you said up until the end. I’ve lived that life for 7 years and know for a fact that is thing runs deeper than a disorder. Addiction is by definition a disease: a particular quality, habit, or disposition regarded as adversely affecting a person or group of people

look up some interviews w/ Anna Lembke on addiction

There are casinos where, if you lose everything - a lot of money, they give lets say 500 eur so you can get home safely.

Choua Vue facts or a free game

@@goodvibrations6 all about building a good customer relation. They win off you they treat you well, you win off them they treat you well so you come back and loose it.

it's call comps

@@Sralit then you can come back and lose more :)

its probably closer to 50 or 75 million.. which is crazy but I wouldn't doubt it for a second.

and he said in the 80s... I'll safely say he was gambling up until the late 200s

So true preach

More money than you will ever see. Haha

@@CMMDRAsh and?

It took me a long time to overcome gambling. We will always have that temptation.But what will help you is if you remember the saddest moment of your gambling career. Dwell on it when you get the urge to gamble. That lot quickly keep you from gambling it works like a charm for me. I remember losing over $50,000 in markers and crying in my room. I always reflect on that day.I also saved a few IOU paybacks on my Marcus to remind me how much I lost. That also works

I like his interviews but he’s got a shit eating smirk or grin a lot of the time

He has money so it's not that big of deal like it is to you and me. I lost everything too, good luck to you

Doesn't work, loansharks always after the same dudes

Israymer Valentin-Arias broke ass bitch

Job Done Right you’re pleasant

lol

But he worth over 100 million son that that money don’t mattee

@@charleschase559 No he's not worth $100 million. Barkley probably isn't that rich anymore.

+Cole Well, Charles has always been transparent.

But once they told him that he stopped losing so much money.

its about dopamine hit, once you win certain amount of money you dont want less

+MrSlicer2424 ha thanks

+Graham Bensinger Still not denying it...

+Mike Rodger (McSpitfire) cause it's a joke and no one but you are taking it seriously

Barkley might be lying about the amounts. # 1 ( inflating the #'s) and he works for the media/gov/illuminati powers. that brain wash the viewers and en slave them to be slaves to a , dollar. then what happens, robbing , stealing , lies etc"" to chase a lifestyle of wealth. ( read the Bible, thats where the Truth is at. )

MrSlicer2424 I give great tips 😂

He is worth millions and millions

I would tip $50, which is a fixed amount for thresholds of over $10,000

I was about to say the same. That tip tho!

Nah: Sometimes you lose, you never win

bigray712 fuck tipping them dont give you money when you loose..

johnny durko fuck you

It's not their fault you lost. The tips are their income.

He is right

bigray712 - they work on tips idiot, get a clue

Job Done Right looks like your leaving hurtful comments everywhere, may you be truly happy at ease, and free from suffering.

hes bored

trance qwerty yes I agreed.I did the self exclusion for 2 years today because it was ruining me and my family

So does alcohol but the majority of people don't have their families destroyed because of it. The large majority can handle alcohol just like the large majority can handle gambling. Get out of your American mindset and realize that there are bookies on every street corner in some countries.

@@jobdoneright5934 Don't be such a dick. But Barkley probably isn't that rich anymore. $40 million is what he made before taxes as a NBA player, it's not his net worth.

@@MrDodger3222 his tnn xontact is about to renew. He is making millions annually from it. He is expected a multi million dollar contract.

@@MrDodger3222 but I'm sorry I offended your boyfriend I know you got to protect him.

Perhaps. But life is all about risk. If you never risk, then you never learn about risk. My gambling has helped me navigate life better, I also do well in the stock market. But I know all the math behind it. Some careless people never learn.

@@RMokrosFor many gamblers the worst thing that can happen is win something. That guarantees to go on gambling. I've seen a few documentaries about gamblers in Las Vegas. The guys that are good at it have studied the subject very much and work very systematic. Most people don't. I once went with some friends to Ladbrokes, gambling on horses, and won right away 50 dollar. During about three weeks, money-wise I run even. Most I lost I won back. I was merely doing cheap and save bets. There was a lot of information available on horses and it’s not so hard to predict horses, that win all the time, to finish in a race in the top three. But you don't make money this way. Better bet on a bad horse that never wins. That gives a very little chance to win off course, but once in a while something absurd can happen. I gave it up after three weeks, gambling is not for me. I've noticed that I became pretty obsessive. Constantly working on ideas and strategies. That could’ve been a sign there’s a problem…

@@Aristotelezz yes.. "constantly working on ideas and strategies" . Each and every time i went to the Casino slot machine gambling i have improved each visit (driving: when to go/not go/ time of day that is best to drive less traffic .. In Casino to improve my experience: When to go which is better morning, middle of the day, *((afternoon/nighttime is best) if pre-JOB is an option or if after-JOB ** is better, 1st go bathroom pee, get free cup of coffee, bring a paper/pen with me to keep track of my expected losses and to slow down my gambling, which machine gives me more of an excitement if i do win, which machine looks better on video if i win something, learning what a win/free spin/bonus minigame looks like, learning the machines that some of them a $1 bet is awful max $10 outcome while a $10 bet allows Grand Prize , while another machine a $5 bet is only midline while a $45 bet includes all 9 lines, which machines are entertaining for me to sit down and listen to other people win even when i'm not gambling myself, make a soft limit (50$ ) , and a hard limit ($100 ), and a limit of time 2hours (any more than that and my brain just goes stupid and my back gets tired). all to improve my overall experience. I kept going back to Casino believing that each visit would improve me as a person (it did,, but at a cost) better at driving, $ budgeting, Time budgeting etc (but eventually that reason of it improving who i am will end).. But the worst part about going to Casino slot machine gambling isn't my $5,000 loss within the last 3 months, nor is it the TIME used in gambling that takes away from my never ending list of tv/games/restaurants to do.. It's something like "if i win $100,000 what would i do with that money?" i would use that money to go home and watch TV " ..... If that is the case, then why the fck am i even gambling ? I can go watch TV right now . Why the hell would +$100 on one visit excite me, while being so nihilistic towards losing -$300 on the next visit ?? (translate this mindset to life OUTSIDE of the casino, and holy shit i have been and always will be so nihilistic towards massive losses ) I'm not saying i'll stop gambling, i think it's fun , i'm saying i should massively reduce my visits, reduce $ limit/ lower bets, reduce Time limit.

@@noobiewatcherz9938 Discipline IMO is the most important to get you somewhere. It's something that most gambler don't have. They are lazy, use drugs, and hope to make by that one bet that solves all their problems. But for most of them counts that winning is the worst thing that can happen to them. It makes sure they keep on gambling and lose whatever they won. But if you lead a disciplined life, never lose your head, and see gambling as a science than maybe... There are examples very successful gamblers...

@@Aristotelezz summary: only few are addicts, while the majority are nihilistic from what i've seen at the Casino there are different types of people 1) Senior citizens who has money and has nothing else to spend money on. 2) Misfits who look like smokers/drug users who don't look like they belong anywhere else in public (so where else would they go ???). 3) Young adult groups of friends (that are too lazy or don't have time to go travel to actual far away places) ... Honestly i don't think much of them are actually addicted to gambling other than a few. What all 3 groups have in common are : I think most of them are just people who have nowhere else to go,, while at the same time being so nihilistic towards expected losses. The few that i've seen, that look like drug addicts/homeless/etc..(hogging 2 machines at once, clothes dirty, asking around for money) if they're not physically blessed to be a Sports Athlete, nor are they mentally blessed enough to even be a Doctor ,, how else would they get rich other than to gamble ? Seems like they are just there trying to reach for a little hope, while at the same time be there willingly just to have all their hope taken away (expecting losses). It's like they're there for some sort of self punishment. (these are the only people i've seen who doesn't look nihilistic when losing on gambling (at least on slot machines), they look slightly bitter slightly sad (they don't bother to hide this face being out in public).

with leverage? 1:20 ?:D

Starlord it's for fun, gambling dip shit. You don't got money to waste like that.

That's why you play poker. You're not playing against the house and it doesn't take much skill to beat the rake. Just don't play above your stakes/ skill level.

@@TheGuyCalledX But you can also be playing against some big card sharks too.

@@MrDodger3222 then don't play against big card sharks? Those guys usually aren't playing 1/2 at the Bike lol

He likes the sensation of winning I guess.

Dopamine

as a gambling addict of 15+ yrs myself, i know for a fact many dealers are gambler addicts tgemself, there's this asian guy told me like 10 yrs ago , he was in the process of divorce, been work in A.C for the last 25 yrs and have nothing to show for ,still struggle with mortgage payment from time to time....

of course you do. casino dealers are some of the most entitled people in the world while being basically useless

@@tommyfu9271 They can be replaced my a machine. Many of them already are because you have online gambling now lol. Even at land based casinos, they can easily have machines take place of a whiny dealer complaining they aren't getting tipped enough.

i think he meant 75 - 100 thousand.

Fast Boi lool just clocked that mistake. Boy is Barkley behind on the IQ but we wouldn't be here if we were up there either Cas we failing the same way he is.

Exaggerate your losses!

He's done it so many times he's lost count, that's not unusual, especially for a man as wealthy as he is. Plus I'm sure many times he was intoxicated while he was gambling lol

no

I love how your broke ass is acting like you can tip someone $75.000

not when u losing. will the dealers hook u up when ur out of chips?

we don't walk in the casino working for dealers thats dumb when we lose, what do the dealers do for us or say? butter luck right now if a dealer is paying me little extra sometimes o i can tip all day but you should change it to, if your winning tip the dealers and if your getting your ass kicked, don't

Brandon Costa graham is sucha jew he started gettimg all antsy haha

You seriously don’t need a casino magnate to tell you that though

StuUngar clearly a lot of people do. Charles Barkley for example. He has a serious skewed understanding of what it means to come out ahead

Jeffrey Lebowski I honestly don’t think Charles ever had any fantasies about beating the casino. Problem gamblers all logically know that theyre in a losing proposition. They just can’t stop. They also don’t live in the long run. Gamblers are people that live today. They know that if they keep playing they will lose all of their money. But they don’t care. All they want is to walk out with a big win on that particular day.

StuUngar for many the higher the risk the higher they get, the money is actually secondary

Jeffrey Lebowski Which is what I said. They chase the big win and the high that comes from that. Money is an underlying component. But it’s not the motivation for gambling.
