A whole bunch of net losers are still talking...amazing...

dinghy, this is specifically to you, get a life...
I spend money on recreational activities. Travel, concerts, video poker. Money is a tool to use. If I go on a $2,000 cruise, are you going call me a loser? Bet you will if I spent the same amount on video poker. Yes, we all want to win, whether it be catching the largest fish, a hole in one, or a royal flush. All depends on what floats your boat. Monetarily, I may not be ahead in the long run. But I have really enjoyed my years playing VP. You can't measure that in monetary terms alone. I am sure others here feel the same way.

My question is: Once a person files for bankruptcy due to unrestrained gambling losses, do they then become a "net loser", or does the term "net loser" refer to tennis players who are defeated???

No, you are iliterate and you've clearly misunderstood the context - this is about gambling. What you said doesn't apply.

But, you're undeniably a net loser when it comes to gambling. Btw, winners get $2000 cruise for free.

Calling me illiterate and a loser without knowing anything about me other than I am a recreational VP player is absurd. You feel the need to insult people. I don't. Conversation closed.
