Topic: Attributing wins or loses during gambling/betting to Ego or Simply Intuition. (Read 302 times)

A bet made based on ego and intuition or even emotions all have high chances of being wrong. Some people do not even know how to know which one is in action when they place their bet or gamble. Making a bet or gambling with ego will mean that you will not be humble to consider the facts and statistics, making a bet or gambling with Intuition means you are assuming and not also doing proper analysis, making a bet or gambling based on emotions means that your predictions are very likely to be biased and not also fact based on statistics.

In essence every time we do a gambling session it will involve emotions. of course, because we are living beings and humans who have it. however, often emotions stimulate our ego even more when experiencing consecutive defeats. as a result, our brain produces excess dopamine. the impact, we will experience high agitation, easily agitated, cognitive acuity, easily pleased, irritable, hedonism, excited and so on and what's worse is easily stressed.

So, I think this does not only involve intuition but also our psychology. despite what you say in this thread, I simply agree. however, neither winning nor losing is common when we gamble and because that is part of the risk. in fact, everyone who has a hobby of gambling especially luck-based gambling. it often involves experience or as you would say, intuition.

I will take the example of slot games, when we start playing. usually based on experience if the rotation of the slot games that we play don't go well.  our intuition will say, that we will lose. however, I think the most appropriate is the most appropriate experience in this case. so, try when we lose in a gambling session. it's better to end the game, also involve self-control and be able to come back another time because that will help us from things that lead to even bigger defeats.

In fact is like that. Whether mood positive or negative, always has a high impact on the gambling which we do, even if we are have excessive emotions during gambling we will also lose although in a positive mood. I also often tell this maybe Self control during gambling is something that we must do it, but unfortunately it is not easy to self control in gambling.

Based on my experience, we have a better chance of winning in gambling if we have positive emotions because we could easily create the right decisions. We could often lose when we aren't in the right state of mind because we can make wrong decisions based on what we feel. Our emotions have a huge impact on our gameplay so we should be smart enough to handle how we feel while playing. Our emotions always count in all that we do.

Personally, it is difficult for me to determine what exactly drives me when making a bet. Ego, perhaps, because deep down we are all a little self-confident in ourselves and in our actions, which means we behave partly selfishly, when most likely in such situations you need to either rely on intuition or just have a cold calculation. But bets are primarily a game, which means that the game must have rules, and based on this, you need to act according to them. But who does it? Yes, this is a utopia, and basically we still do as we see fit, but here it’s different for everyone. I think mostly eco prevails, as it makes the game more unpredictable, which means it allows you to experience experience and anxiety.

The mood has an impact on your decision-making because if you get too carried with those emotions might happen too is making wrong decisions, if you are too much happy because you earn a good multiplier there is a chance you get greedy too that hoping for another chance to get another profit in this game and spend that money immediately because you get to win a game and there's a possible mindset you can earn again those, and if your losses a lot there's a probability that you will make a revenge game bet like double or risk it with a higher amount.  Always gambling when you think you are in condition instead of getting urge by just your ego.

Like many other gamblers I try to gamble only when I am in a good mood and there is no important business or meetings. During gambling mood can change very sharply so it is better to choose a day when you are completely free. Regardless of whether you win or not, gambling causes a surge of emotions that can lead to the wrong perception of information coming to the brain. As a consequence, this can lead to mistakes, because when you win you become overconfident, and when you lose you feel anger and most often there is a desire to win back.

So if you feel that you are overwhelmed with emotions while gambling, it is better to stop.

Gambling needs concentration, so if you are not focused, you will lose a lot. Gambling cause different feelings. If you loss a bet, you would feel bad, or High Blood Pressure would come immediately if there is very high. Whenever you are about to play a bet let your ego and anxiety be fill with concentration. If you are disturbed before becoming to the casino hall. Stay in the casino hall for about a hour have some fun with friends so that, the boring mindset will be removed before start the stake.

I've seen gamblers that win because they listen up and plan ahead for every bet they wanted to play while some got too overconfidence and their pride and ego got them loosing, though some have also experienced the other way in its opposite direction which is not something common but we have alot of gamblers loosing their games because of an error coming up from their end and this time not that they didn't play or predict well, but little foolishness or behavior cause a huge loss stopping them from winning, also we should never boast on what we never achieve or acquired yet.

Regardless of whatever the case might be, there is one thing I try not to do which is staking a bet when I'm not in the right state of mind either too excited or sad or even angry, I always make sure I don't make any bet when I'm in either of this moods.
To answer yur question, I would want to say that I mostly follow predictions and speculations while staking a bet especially when it has to do with soccer betting and this is because I always have to follow more of analysis and ratings and whole lot of other factors has to be put into consideration while making a bet in soccer bettings.

Ego and and emotions is a must in the world of gambling it because if we can not controll our emotions for sure it will lead it into loss or break as we all that if we gamble even though we have a big personal problem make me think that's not a good practice cause it's lead us to lose our focus and bet and bet without thinking the future outcome. The best thing we need to do if we are a gambler we neeed to know ourselves first our self and practice to control our emotions.

Anything that is done because of ego will not give good results, including gambling. But gambling will not be separated from the ego, even if we try it, the ego will always be there and will result in exhaustion.
because it is ego that lures us to keep playing and this must be controlled even though it is difficult, and I try to play when there is confidence and a desire to bet because with this I can bet calmly and relaxed even though gambling is luck but if we play when we feel happy and calm, we can think deeper when betting and can make the right choice, sometimes luck is on my side and remember to play when the heart is calm and try not to continue playing in a state of uncontrolled ego. And sometimes luckier for those who rarely gamble.

Simple bro.

1. If you win, you're gonna win or scream.
2. If you lose, you're gonna scream louder (saying a bad word "F*cK) & punch a table.

I'm do this haha, especially while losing with some stupid things like: Playing Baccarat, I got 8 and then other side got 9. That's just make me really mad, because losing with only 1 points ~XD.

The ego will surely increase whatever the results we get. And it is the ego that will destroy you if you cannot stop playing gambling when you have experienced consecutive losses. And when we get a win, we will surely feel that it is time for us to recover from our previous losses and try to play a few more rounds. But in reality, it doesn't come true and we are trapped by the ego that wants to win more. I try to suppress my emotions while playing and even though it's hard, I still try because it's the only thing I can do to avoid another loss. And we must be really calm while playing and not be provoked by anything.

I simply just place bets on my favorite team and not using emotion since I’m just btting for fun. The bet size is what makes gambler involves too much emotion in there bets because they can not afford of losing that specific amount.

You can notice this when you are betting a 2$ bet to 100$ bet at the same time. Most likely you can’t sleep on a 100$ bet even if the odds is 1.01 compared to 2$ bet with same odds because the potential huge loss is what affects the human mind badly.

In general, I always try to bet following a "common thread" that allows me to win thanks to my intuition and to maintain a low degree of risk. It means apply some "science" if it is possible

I always try to have 0 emotions in my bets.
I bet against my favorite team several times (just to give an example )
I think that when you manage to do something like this you have reached a "pro" level

For me it's purely intuitive! I usually gamble for some adrenaline rush and fun! I never gamble to make money. So probably that's the reason it doesn't go to my feelings or ego. It can be attributed to feelings and ego when a serious money is involved into gambling and when gambling is not done for fun and entertainment. That's dengerous because that's when people get addicted and makes it very difficult to come out of the addiction.

Gambling Selfish & Intuition are traits that often appear when we experience defeat and indeed, I often encounter these two traits, when my ego explodes, especially when I experience bad luck in gambling betting, I have to quickly think with my mind and instincts, what exactly did I do wrong or right earlier, thus I quickly act, want to continue or stop gambling, it is accelerated when I win and lose.

If I don't use intuition when I win, I still follow my ego, for sure my victory will end in 0, that's why I gamble always use intuition to determine right and wrong.

Your ego should never be a part of how you gamble because your ego when challenged will not accept defeat and because it cannot accept defeat it will motivate you to pour more money to gamble more until you realized your ego is ruining you,
Even your intuition should never be a part of gambling if you involve in it and you win because you believe in your intuition you will continue to gamble and your mind will be preoccupied with gambling, the best thing to do is to have a mindset that you're playing for fun and when you left the site or log out on the casino, that its no looking back until another session.

As far as i know, I've never paid attention to my emotions or how i feel when gambling or placing a bet, though i do sometimes notice that i feel uneasy to betting on some games, that is like finding it hard to decide which team to bet on, but i believe this has nothing to do with emotions, i dont believe that feeling good about a bet has any thing to do to winning or losing such bet, likewise not feeling good also have nothing to do with winning or losing.
An example is the match between Argentina and Saudi Arabia in the 2022 world cup, that match ruined my business and almost ruined my life, and the fact that I was really happy while placing a $2500 bet on Argentina which i later lost due to Saudi Arabia winning the match is a clear explanation that what you feel before placing a bet has nothing to do with you winning or losing such bet.
