gambling all my gold

so, after some days of mfing and selling all rares i find, i'm gonna gamble all my money (since i'm full )

now, i've read a lot about gambling and the odds I have for stuff etc.
But my question is
with 3milion gold
what item should i gamble, in order to be reasonably sure to get something descent out of it?

I know there are some godly rares to be found, but I also know the chance of finding such rares is extremely rare. So i'm kinda asking for an in-between way.
Some way to receive good items (ist+) at a descent probability.

Any hints?

Re: gambling all my gold

amulets able to get +2 skills - from chlvl 95
circlets able to get +2 skills - from chlvl 92
coronets able to get +2 skills - from chlvl 87

otherwise I would not spent much money on anything, though 3 millions doesn't sound too much for me.

I'm lvl 87, decided to spend it all on ammy's (result)

what about gloves/boots
are they worth gambling?

Re: gambling all my gold

Some people gamble boots hoping for a good rare. Not too many folks gamble gloves. Rings, amulets, circlets, and coronets are probably the most popular choices.

Just a heads up... Gambling has to be looked at as... a risky endeavor at best. With 3 million, or 10 million, or 30 million, you aren't guaranteed to get anything good. Not to discourage you (besides, what are you supposed to do with the money anyway? ), but in my D2 career I've probably gambled a couple hundred million and came away with maybe three items worth Ist+.

It's gambling! Good luck!

Edit: Rings, I'd say, are a decent bet to start with. With patience, you'll get a number of FCR rares, and that may be a more in between thing to go for rather than that perfect circlet or coronet. And rings are cheaper. Don't forget, also, you can reduce the cost of gambling with a Gheed's fortune charm and an Edge runeword bow.

Good fortune to you.

Re: gambling all my gold

Well, get those few levels. Without having +2 skills, your amulets won't be any good.
