It really depends.
Most of the casinos (online adn offline) make their money from the common gambler - those who come to play for fun and loose the occasional $100 - $500.
But here and there you can find the high rollers, those who "know what they're doing" and think they can beat the house, which sometimes they do.
By the way, if you consider poker gambling, then yes - people DO win in poker. In the last WSOP, a guy named Jaime Gold won $12 million! But that's not just luck - that's skill.

does somebody win? of course -- unfortunately, it's usually the house. Best suggestion if you do win: don't spend it. Save it up and use it as part of your bankroll to advance your skill in a game such as poker. As your game advances, so will the money you win. Once you are consistently winning and making more than your bankroll fluctuates, you can start pocketing portions of your bankroll for bills, gifts or other purchases.

Yes very often, what do you play?
Try black jack it has the best odds in the casino!
if you don't know how to play most casinos have a class that will teach you how. What makes it easy is that its just you vs. the dealer great odds and I've walked away with plenty of money try it out i hope i helped

Yes, People do win at gambling but the majority of them will play it back and end up losers.

One time I won $10,000 and I fixed my car, paid some bills, helped my daughter pay her rent, some bills and buy books for school and bought my son a Playstation 2 and some games and books that he wanted for a long time. It was pretty much gone after that but it was fun while it lasted!

had a big win once - but did not leave, so lost it all back to the casino. How else would the casino pay for their heavy overheads if not for suckers ? lol

No. You never really make any cash from it. They take some sort of fee from it that makes it look like you won but you didn't.
