Money isn't the end goal. It's just the scoreboard. You do something like that because it's thrilling.

But yes, if money were your end goal, someone smart enough to pull that off could probably make more elsewhere.

There's a thrill in figuring out a system, and there's some satisfaction in optimizing and executing it, but for the most part, if you're doing it right, being a professional gambler is pretty boring.
