Gambling

 When I was Young and was going to college, I went to a fun Fair in Karachi. In the fair I see a game named Luck Seven. In the game you roll 2 dices. There were three options to choose from 

1) below seven i.e. 2,3,4,5,6 

2) above seven i.e. 8,9,10,11,12 

3) Lucky Seven i.e. 7

In the game you select an option and roll the 2 dice. If you have selected below seven and the total of 2 dice is a digit below seven than you win the game and get double the bet amount. If you have selected Above seven and the total of 2 dice is a digit above seven than you win the game and get double the bet amount. If you select Luck Seven and you roll the dices and the total of two dices is Seven than you win triple the bet amount. If the total is different from your selected option you do not get your bet amount back.


So, I put a bet of 2 rupees on below seven hoping to win 2 rupees, but I lost.

Then I put a bet of 4 rupees on below seven hoping to win back my lost 2 rupees and winning 2 rupees, but I lost second time.

Then I put a bet of 8 rupees on below seven hoping to win back my lost 6 rupees and winning 2 rupees, but I lost third time.

Then I put a bet of 16 rupees on below seven hoping to win back my lost 14 rupees and winning 2 rupees, but I lost fourth time.

Then I put a bet of 32 rupees on below seven hoping to win back my lost 30 rupees and winning 2 rupees, but I lost fifth time.

Then I put a bet of 64 rupees on below seven hoping to win back my lost 62 rupees and winning 2 rupees, but I lost sixth time.


At this point I stopped after losing 126 rupees only trying to win 2 rupees.

After that experience I understood gambling.

I think even though I lost 126 rupees, but it taught me a lot.


disclaimer: I am not saying gambling is good or bad, I am just sharing my experience.

[idea] Film or Series on Suicide

 [idea] Film or Series on Suicide   The world is 2040, and now Suicide has become legal in the world. If you want to die, you can legally submit an application to the court stating that you want to take your own life. The court asks you the reasons you want to take your own life, but even if you don’t state any reason, that is fine as well. The court then asks you to come after 2 weeks, to get your permission to take your own life. The court also informs about your decision to your family so they might be able to convince you not to take your own life.   After the permission is granted, the person can take their own life, but he/she have to do it on their own. For example, they have to shoot bullets themselves,  they have to jump themselves, someone else cannot push them, etc.     Now, a lot of scenarios open up as follows;   1)       Someone really wants to take their own life 2)     ...

Americ Vs Israel

 I have a gut feeling that America will attack Israel.   The people who blame America for supporting Israel in the genoside is Gaza should blame only Israel not America for Israel actions. I also believe Hamas leadership is working for Israel, so Hammas leadership is to blame for genoside in Gaza. There is a limit to which you support/help your friend, but there comes a point where you had enough of it.
