If you want to be successful, you should always have a plan that will define your path to your success. It's obvious that you need to exert effort and make something that will push you through your goal. An example of those things is strategy and plan (like what OP said) which will definitely gain him more experiences and be an expert on that specific sports or game. And remember that you should always try and try since there are many experts in gambling that has a lot of experiences so it's a hard trial for you.

So you think that gamblers should take gambling as a profession ? Gambling cannot be considered as a profession and it should be treated like a game only. You cannot make a living out of anything which is so much uncertain in nature. Yes, you can learn to play better with passage of time but you should have other means of earning regular income.

There are some gamblers who believe in superstition. Every time you watch or read something about gambling, the hero of the story goes on a winning streak as soon they bet on their lucky number, or keep a lucky clover close to their heart.

Does it really make sense that luck is very important in gambling? Additionally, about superstition, unfortunately in my country, there are still many people who believe in this superstition when playing gambling. They are searching for the lucky number or things outside of our reality or mind. It is strange to believe in such different things, superstition. But, however this is their belief and we should know and understand about it.
Personally, I do not believe in the superstition.

.. he needed only two things to beat the house: good skills and a plan. ..

Same here, we cannot really put our trust only on luck. There should be efforts to become rich. There must be a way if someone trying hard. As here, good skils can be got from learning from experience, people's experience, analysis, and also lesson in every match or gambling. So, it will lead to having better skill in gambling. Additionally, plan is required to make our strategies or skill completed enough. The plan should be managed properly in order to understand exactly what should be done during gambling and what kind of decision to take at that time.

If you think these things work, don't gamble.

I did believe in it up until now.
Although I don't win that much like your example I still do win.

One of my superstition belief is resting.
Thinking that lady luck is not my side when I experience a losing streak.
What I'd do? Rest for a while, 1 hour of break then go back.
If the results are still the same, I would rest the whole day. It is not that bad, preventing to lose more is a strategy too.

Well, I guess every professional gamblers we do know today have also started from scratch and have learned their strategies or how they will cope up into circumstances throughout the journey from the experiences they have which basically composes of losses and wins but more of losses I think since experiencing loss and mistakes makes us realize or learn something that makes us a better individual which we can do apply on being a professional gambler ourselves. We must not compare ourselves into the latest professional gamblers we do know because we are all unique in our own ways and we can also be a popular and well-known gamblers by just being ourselves because playing gambling and winning it does not make it only a day unless you were really that lucky. The point is that we can all be professional gamblers by doing the thing we know that will be good or helpful to us for being a good and professional gamblers on our own ways.

If you are going to ask any professional gamblers how do they survive at the tables. No matter how good you are, they will tell you this: it's inevitable that you will have a bad string of results Ir even a bad year so we should always accept that we can lose the game.

The problem most of the time is that people play with money that they cannot afford to lose and that makes them play again with emotions in the hope that they will be able to recover the losses and and again these people lose money that they couldn't afford to lose

I am not going to talk about superstition because in Africa it has become something normal since centuries ago and today or at least for some years now people are realizing that certain games are necessary to have a lot of knowledge and develop a good strategy to win

Luck would always a main thing and as i said below, no matter what gambling game we are into.Luck-based or Strategy based, if this thing doesnt favor us then we would surely lose.

I disagree if we are talking about strategy-based games.

On this type of game, you need to help your LUCK to come at you rather than LUCK will come to you. What does this mean? For example, you are having a bad day like some of your preferred cards aren't appearing on your deck, your key to winning here will be based on how you decide. A strategy that can beat the dealer's card even your set of cards is bad.

On the other hand, let's say you are lucky and you are getting good cards, it doesn't always mean you can win on that round. So luck is useless here if you can't manage to take advantage of it.

I agree with your point but its just common sense that you should really know on what you are doing with the game because good cards wont be utilize if you dont know on whats the game is all about.
Even its already a good situation to call but you missed that part because you do lack of that knowledge. Luck cant be called nor being affected by several factors but as said
if you do know on what you're doing, you do really have that edge against other or opponent.

You either play it for entertainment purposes or leave it. According to my belief, there can't be any such ^professional^ gambler but disciplined, responsible gambler. A responsible gambler knows his responsibilities for the society he lives in, for his family, for his kids, for his wife, etc. One who has patience will never let his emotions drown him as he knows when to stop and when to start back. Learn patience and stop if you've won a significant amount of money, that's the only mantra to be in profits for a long time.

Professional means gambling is your profession, or simply put, you do it for a living. In pure chance games, no way you can do that, but if it's in skill games, then yes.

For poker, you can do the cold reading and bluffing. If it's combined with experience, then your winning chance can be higher than average joes. However, it is still risky since one bad night can erase your income.

Agree, you can't call your self a gambling professional if you are playing games that requires only luck. You will have to be skilled with something and do it as a means of living. This is risky because even skilled and experienced players also have their losing streak, and I think only few are really lucky to make it and survive making gambling as a profession.

Lol, I don't believe it was just skill and "a plan" that helped him win $15.2 million. If it was skills and plans that is helping him win millions, then why isn't he a billionaire by now. Why don't we see his name on the list of richest persons? I would say he just got lucky! Luck played vital role for him on winning

Let me say that we are on the same page here

But if BJ is like poker (I don't really know since I'm not a fan of either) and skill is involved in this game too, it is no longer a matter of chance and luck as is the case with games of chance like, for example, dice. Well, it is not the case even with these games, but it is an entirely different matter (and a can of worms, while we are at it). Regarding why he is not a billionaire by now, the market for BJ may be too small, and there can be too little money in it to become a billionaire for any single individual. Really, you can't win more money than there is, right?

Agreed to this. I have some virtual friends who constantly joined in many online porker games (even physical one), I'm amazed how good he is. But, being professional or very skilled poker player make give you a certain win. It's always on our luck.

Gambling is a matter of win or lose and the important line i do like is that "we shouldnt let ourselves being controlled with our emotions" this thing really works
because if you do gamble just for fun then this wont really be a big issue on your side.

That Don Johnson story is one huge success story it's one rare story to win that amount, but I wonder what is the total cost to win that amount how much time and money did he spent before climbing to get that winning, I wonder if he can do that over and over again because luck still plays a major factor in every gambling, we seldom beat the house.

People should consider this fact. We do hit jackpots but to think on how much we have spent totally before hitting up that pot.Of course, luck is always been a main factor for us to
win even though we do say that plans and skills are needed but all of these would be useless if it doesnt mixed out with luck. Knowing BJ where you do need some
sort of intuition or gut feeling that your hand would bust up.

To be honest, I admire people who are professional gamblers. I'm not sure if they are brave enough or crazy enough to risk that much. Because if you want to make enough for living you need to take quite a big risk every day and in general you depend on luck, experience, feeling and knowledge can't help that much. Gambling is one of those activities where you never have full control. So I beleive that successful professional gambllers are incredible lucky but they have very exciting job and adrenaline takes them all the time.

Professional gamblers of course what they do is very risky where they will make big bets and the luck that is there therefore we as gamblers must be prepared what we face in gambling.
If we live only rely on gambling, it will be very difficult because we ourselves are not professionals, we are only mentally strong, but do not support big finances, so it will be even more difficult to rely on it.

If you like gambling, you want to continue to protect your privacy so others dont know it and you continue to do your as a gambler and remain in your position until no one knows, then calm down because you are a professional. Cheesy

Professionals in general terms are those who have a profession and have high ability and integrity at their jobs. However, I dont think someone who has a lot of experience in gambling can be called a professional because gambling is not a profession but just a game. You can still be called a professional only if you are someone who works at a physical gambling site or casino because that is your job. Love your job, experienced and able to work well then you are a professional worker.

Well, I agree with this. Gambling is gambling and no matter how long you've been playing or how experienced you are in a particular game still it will be your luck that will make you win. Skills and plans may be an advantage but that will never guarantee a winning for your skills or plans may not be appropriate in each game so, in the end, --you will still hold on your luck. Winning a huge amount will not make anyone pro or an expert, not unless if they can do it on a daily basis without a single day of loss.

Yea, the superstition thing is quite funny when you visit the brick n mortar casinos, because some people that are playing the Slot machines, have this superstition that they must rub the screen to have good luck. You walk around there and you see people rubbing the screens and/or the side of the machines and it looks like people making love to the equipment. Roll Eyes

Slot machines have the lowest possible return of all the games in the casinos and people still believe they can win the house with superstition. The only guaranteed method to win a bit more, is if you know how these games work, because some people will go sit in front of a new game/machine and they just drop money and play.(Study the game play and help and learn how to use the bonus system or how to unlock it)

As with anything in life, most success come from proper research and continued repetition and training.

That is without a doubt a funny superstition but I have never seen anything like it at the place where I live.

One of the things that bothers me the most about many of those that gamble is that they never stop to think about what it is on their best interests, as you say by far the most profitable game for a casino are the slot machines and you only have to take a look at any casino to see that most of the available space is used for those machines, that should raise a red flag for anyone that is observant, because that is a clear indication that the casino wants you to play in those slot machines, and if a casino wants you to play those slot machines then that means that you should not want to play there and should look for another game.

Although gambling is a game of chance, it can be a good source of income for people with proper planning and disciplined play. As an ex-gambler, although I support my words "gambling is not a gain" that I have said in my previous posts, I would like to add the following. While you are gambling, you can increase your chances of making money with proper planning and disciplined compliance with the rules you set beforehand. Although this is not a permanent income method and of course it will break out at some point, it will be a very reasonable choice to save your short-term games. For this reason, if your main goal is to earn money instead of having fun, creating the right plan strategy and playing discipline will definitely help to achieve positive results.
