When you do the lotterey do you class every win as a win even if it is only for under 10.00 or do you think these are pointless wins?

It depends on what the qualification is for. I am sure that few people would count £10 for tax purposes as a win, but yes it counts to me, to my own knowledge and keeping track of my winnings and losses.

Since I lose more than I win,  I celebrate every win and it's a big enough deal for me.  Of course I relish the bigger ones better, but  am not complaining one bit when the payout is mine - no matter how small.

In order to be a "win" I have to feel like I am offsetting my losses. Like, if I bought $20 worth of tickets, and won $5, I wouldn't feel like I won because I spent more than I made. Now, if I spent $20 and got $200, I'd feel like a winner.

They are all wins yes, but then I do keep it in the context of wins and losses. I know that overall I am down a lot of money over my gambling 'career'.

I agree, if I don't make out more than I put in I don't count it as a win. Now if I net even $1 more than I spent to bet I count it as a win, because its more fun that way. If you only focus on big wins you could be a very sad player.
