When I first started gambling, I won some significant amount of money which further motivated me to continue gambling. Like any other gambler, later on I found myself losing more money than ever. Which is why I have always thought about whether beginner’s luck was real. To me, it didn’t make sense that the machine or the game knows if the player is a beginner so there’s no such thing as a beginner winning more than an experienced gambler.

But now that I thought about it, I realized that the beginner’s luck had more to do with the player itself than outside factors. As a beginner, you have no expectations. You do not know what’s possible. What can you win, what can you lose. There is no pressure of playing which is why you are just able to win. But a few rounds after that, you are already expecting to win. There is the need to perform better and get more money than the previous round. And that is the explanation for a beginner’s luck. It’s just our mindset.

Proven that it is in our minds. We tend to think that it's due to the fact that several beginners have experienced it and I think that mindset really plays in there.

Because once a newbie in gambling started to play, the old timers will tell them that there's this thing called 'beginners luck' so, that comes to their mind as if they're going to be lucky with their bets.

It becomes a motivation to them that the positive thinking that they have also affects the mood when they play. So, it's true, there's no pressure and they just enjoy whatever the outcome is.

I always think about winning during my early days in gambling, as my gambler friends drilled into me, saying that it would attract good luck. I actually believe it since I won on my very first bet. That win hooked me, tempting me to play again. But unfortunately, no matter how positive we think or how much we believe in winning, losses eventually happen to us.

That is why if we hit the jackpot on our first try, don’t get too comfortable that it will happen again. My advice to newcomers? Don’t celebrate when you win because, in the end, we gamblers lose more. If you think that gambling is your ticket to riches, it is time to let go of that illusion, as it is really impossible.

When I started gambling which is soccer betting i was winning on a regular basis and some of my friends joined me because I was winning a lot, I was the person predicting the games and we where winning but as time goes on I stopped winning I tried all I could no way I was thinking it was because of greed wanting bigger amount of money I started prediction few games but I still lost, so I gave betting a break when I came back I started win and losing and that is how it has been.
A lot of gambling I know of had same story of first time luck, I really don't understand the mystery about this but what I believe is not everyone gets that first time luck of winning.

There's nothing such as beginners luck in when it comes to Gambling as such things are myths that are being propagated by people because gambling winnings in gambling any day is a function of luck, the truth of the matter is that when it comes to Gambling most first timers are novies in gambling and they don't really understand what the game is all about so they can stake in any game with out knowing the outcome of what he or she is staking on they don't know what the odds are in the game they just choose a particular games and stake on it but as they become more aware of the facts and know more about the game they become more aware and careful when staking so they follow the traditional method of betting that is trying to know the strength of the teams and the winning ratio of the team . I can say that when it comes to sport betting especially football odds don't come to play but the better team in the game wins this is the more reason plenty gamblers loss because they only follow odds

I agree with you which is invariably to say that ... The outcome of your game is usually an opposite side.
If you are too eager to win in the gamble you are most definitely going to keep loosing and most times when you are lesser concerned to your winning there are probably going to have it.

The factor of beginners being lucky to win in the first place is still a grace which is based of luck and not that the casino decided to grant the player winning as a welcomed. He was just luck and the more you stick to gamble is the chances of loosing and winning becomes a norms for the beginner players because much expectations of winning is beginning to ring on the head.

I don't believe in first-time luck but I was fortunate enough to win my first few sports bets when I first registered on stake, this doesn't mean that others who registered and gamble don't lose their first bets/games.

Don't get caught up in that misconception of first-time luck, because its negative effects when the losses come are very harsh since you will end up losing all that you previously won plus your balance trying to chase that luck again.

But it is not so, the early winning has to do with the individual players because, at that early spot, your mind is not open to the diverse chances and risks in gambling so you can still make a few accurate analyses and win a few games.

Do not believe this misconception. As someone can start gambling with profit, so can another person gamble for the first time with losses.

Early winning is not given to all gamblers, because I can point to several casinos that I registered to over a year now and I haven't won anything, aside from my deposits I haven't withdrawn.

I think people meant not the first time the gambler registered on different gambling sites but the first time the gambler started to gamble irrespective of the gambling site used.

You as a gambler or someone who has been constantly involved with gambling can never be this settled to gamble anymore, but with the first time gamblers their mind aren't that compromised but rather they just gamble and luck hit them, yes you are right that out of 100 new gamblers who are wanting to gamble for the first time, there is a probability that only few person either 1-5 person who would win their bet. Although this depends on the kind of game they gambled on, it could be sport betting, slot, roulette and dice game, each an everyone who plays these games would have their chances of winning than gambling in same game.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)

Since the outcome of any gambling game does not depend on its previous round, a person starting the game or playing the same game the 100th time does not matter to the math. The game might end up with a good or bad outcome in a 50-50 chance. If they get luck, we end up calling it beginner luck which is actually a wrong term with this logic since the casino does not check who is a beginner and how is a novice and "distribute" luck like that.

So we should avoid using this term in future and teach people the fallacy it carries, the false sense of confidence that a few wins in the beginning leads to.

There is nothing like beginner's luck what i feature is that at the beginning while gambling you didn't attached any feelings or even expecting to have something extremely huge from the gambling site, so while playing you plays on the neutral ground but immediately you managed to secure winning this boosting your adrenaline making you to have this mind blowing thinking or mindset that this is real? And of course you wouldn't be hesitant to hold yourself back but instead would to go gambling again and not just that, you would be triggered to increased your wagering amount without knowing that you have already applied desperacy while gambling therefore losing is that common because you aren't that gambling on a neutral ground instead with somewhat huge expectations.

Is not as if the casinos have a system in place to favor beginners in other to make them feel comfortable with losing ahead, if casinos had such a system in place then there wouldn't be need for a provably fair system and casinos become total scams and will ban gambling completely.

If there are 100 people that have not gambled before but about to start. If they tell them to gamble and people are seeing them while gambling. Not all of them would first win. Some people will win while some people will lose. I know someone that gambled for the first time that lost the game immediately and he told me he is no more gambling again.

This is totally right. The expectation makes us crave for win that’s why we are more prone for being out of patience when we experienced win already.

As a beginner, we are still being cautious with our bet size compared to being experienced gambler that we always do bet increase since think that we will win higher if we bet huge amount and hit higher multiplier that we experienced before using small amount of bet.
