I can be very sympathetic to characters like Kaiji (1st season only) who are trolled by life. They do things expecting to win and walk away with money, glory and victory, but things do not go their way because of circumstances or their own miscalculations.
Kaiji expected Furuhata and Andou to not betray him, but they betrayed him. He expected Tonegawa to cash out these bills when he walked on that beam, but Tonegawa did not. He wanted to destroy the device on his ear to prevent Tonegawa from cheating in E-card and win but ended up cutting off his ear. He expected to beat Hyodou in the last lottery game he himself designed but lost instead.
In contrast in second season her does stupid things knowing full well it will turn out badly. That ruins the show for me.
