I think people don't understand that there is no strategy in gambling. Gamble but consider your spendings on it as an entertainment expense. Got luck on your side and won? Good. If you don't you still had fun.

If its luck based, like dice, slot, or crash game there is no strategy you can employ the house always have the edge over you and this is something that is hard to overcome, but if its sports betting, you can rely on your analysis and expertise on how you know the game very well, but there's a chance that it will still not go your way.
You don't have to lose a fortune to finally come to the idea that gambling is for entertainment because it really is, just read about other people's experiences and you'll know that no strategies that can be employed to win in gambling continuously, have fun if you win then good just don't attribute it to skill or strategy.

If there is no strategy that works for you, that is okay but you cannot invalidate strategies that works for the others. The suggestion of yours is a great one because you will be able to flee from disappointment if ever it is not your day.

But if you have won with or without strategies being done, I agree to just have some fun and do not forget that purpose when you gamble so when losing streak comes to you, it won't give a heavy feeling of pain.

Martingale strategy is legit as long as you have unlimited money which mean it's impossible.

It's obvious playing poker need a skill to understand how to play and how to win, but you still need a luck to get better card than your opponent.

In sport you can analyze the team or the fighter, but you still not able what will happen during the match. Except you're the player, so it depends on your performance, either you want to win or lose Tongue

there are a lot of strategies that can be applied both in casinos and in classic sport-bets but this does not mean that they are "simple" methods to win or that they "guarantee" a sure win on every play.
those that give a certain guarantee are practically prohibited or lead to you being banned (example... counting cards in live blackjack).
With some strategies you can get a kind of advantage but nothing that really dramatically changes your chance of win Wink

there are several known strategies such as martingale, d'Alembert, handicapping in sports and others. however, knowing them has certain advantage but won't give you a sure win on your bets. if you think your strategy is working and you're winning, better get out while you are on the positive side. because if you will continue, you will soon find out that you are already losing what you won from your games.
so yeah, there may be gambling strategies but it will only work for certain period. and if you will not follow your instincts, you more then likely go home empty-handed.

Strategy in gambling has many applications such as strategies in managing finances that will be used for gambling strategies in choosing games or bets that will be made strategies in placing betting positions so that there is a chance of winning.
But what strategy do you mean, friend?
If the strategy is to guarantee wins and profits when betting then there is no strategy that can have a 100% guarantee or percentage of success to win.
Basically strategy is a way that gamblers do so that they have more confidence and suggestions that they can complete bets correctly but do not provide guarantees, only make it possible to increase the chances of winning for gamblers.

ur wrong..

there r strategies but not in all form of games..

there is definite skill involved in some type of gambling..

like poker and sports betting and that could be considered as strategy.

in last 5 years, i have made more money through gambling than by any other way..

if u play right, u can make money in long run, although at times u do encounter short term losses

but that's where u need to learn how to manage ur money..

so, yes, there is a strategy, money management, and a bit of luck.

I agree. We can only strategize on winning when we are playing against other gamblers like card games. Casino games are for fun and I don't know what strategies we can make out there when there's the house edge that would favor the house in the long run. Martingale is one of the most popular strategies that gamblers used but I am not really sure if these gamblers are in profit in general since they started the strategy.

In sports betting, we can analyze and have a vast knowledge of the sports we are following, but that's only it, there are no technical strategies that are directly aimed toward beating the house.

Just the fact that House Edge exists is enough to say that a user isn't going to win against a casino at all really.

Let us say wining in total, because a gambler wins does not mean the overall result will be win, it can be loss later. I have known many days that I win very well and because of that I have more energy to gamble more and finally lose that day. This has happened to me several times. We should not take gambling to be beyond entertainment because house edge always existing. I get what you mean though, I have lucky days too, but they are the days I do not gamble that much, I win and I leave the house immediately.

Gambling can really turn to be a problem for those who feel they can actually gamble just to have huge profits and this habit will definitely turn out to be an addiction if the huge profits you are chasing is not coming as expected. Gambling in a general sense could be seen as a fun even and I can tell you that there is no technically strategy you can use to actually become a successful gambler rather that will land you a successful chaser of your losses, it all depends on luck because the more you try to win big if you are not lucky you can end up loosing big so it's better to flex it and see this act as a fun event and don't ever gamble more than what you don't have if not you will ruin yourself through this act.

Can't emphasize more about having fun. I mean I wouldn't mind people exploring whatever "strategies" they think works or found, it's part of the fun if they really wanted to (just like how it is in most games), but since gambling directly deals with money most people (if not all) use said strategies to assume that they'd win money (at least majority of the time) and if they don't, well, they forget often that gambling is simply just for fun.

Just the fact that House Edge exists is enough to say that a user isn't going to win against a casino at all really.

You are right that people should gamble and only see it as fun and entertainment, but there are strategies used in gambling. If you are a gambler, you use only small amount of money to gamble, or an amount of money like less than 5% of your weekly income to gamble, it is still part of strategies used.

Anything that you are doing not to fall into big losses that can devastate your life is a strategy. Also some people read about things like martingale strategy and many others, they are also part of strategies that can be used in gambling. But you are not wrong that no matter what, gamblers should see gambling as a means of not making money, they should see it as fun and entertainment only and they should not use more than the amount of money that they can afford to lose.

yes indeed in gambling there is no strategy whereas gambling is just a place to have fun not a place expecting profit.
but i have one question in the sports betting section. Is arbitrage betting a strategy in gambling? or just a method to win?
yes, I fully understand that there really is no way to beat the house and that arbitrage betting is so frowned upon by bookies that led to banning of gamblers, but I consider arbitrage betting as one of the strategies in gambling that has a definite outcome. although it has to use a long time and strict precision.

Arbitrage betting isn't really a gambling strategy, it's merely taking advantage of betting odds. You're not guaranteed to find the opportunity for arbitrage betting and the gambling aspect is taken out of the equation because you're returns are guaranteed when you place the bets.

Gambling inquires inherent risk and there is no risk if you know the precise return.

Traditional casino games have a built in house edge so you know the return over time. The immediate return remains unknown.

If you mean strategies such as martingale and its variants, certainly not. No strategy is going to beat the House Edge. The problem with this is that some people put too much hope in gambling as a good way to make money, when it is a sure way to lose money in the long run.

Gambling should be seen as entertainment, as you say, where you can occasionally walk away with extra money, but the money you use in a given session should be seen as money spent, like going to the cinema or going out for dinner. If you want to make money you'd better buy bitcoin or make an investment, but people are not patient enough and expect to win a jackpot at roulette or similar.

The strategy is only used for those who can control themselves in gambling no matter what strategy is used or found because the house will always win, that's why I always bet just for fun meaning the meaning of fun not targeting a certain win , gamble to relieve boredom on weekends when winning means it's my lucky day or the bookie gives me my winnings but if i don't win it means it's not my lucky day, after all i only spend $5 to $15 for a month so no problem
