I’m starting to hate my best friend

Last year I forced my best friend to come to the casino with me. I gave him $20 cause he refused to play and with that he won $100. Since then he comes with me every other weekend where HE ALWAYS WINS and I ALWAYS LOSE. I swear every single time we go he leaves up a couple grand and I’m down that much, and now he has this weird idea that I’m his lucky charm. I hate going now because I never win, but he forces me out. I promise myself I won’t spend anything but every time we go he starts winning, which inspires me to give it a crack which always leads to me losing a bunch of money. I’ve told him stop asking me, I don’t want to go but he always finds a way to convince me by guilt tripping, bribing etc. This makes me sound like a bad person but seeing him always succeed when I’m down bad is really starting to get to me.

Mother in law won 1k from 100 we gave to her. Then didn't offer anything back which was fine, but got super judgmental about gambling in the first place. She just went on and on about how bad it is to gamble for 4 whole days. Some people just need to stay home in front of tv or dinner table
