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.
Sorry but I will have to disagree wit you, a beginner can have expectations, know what winning and losing is and expect to win even in his or her very first game.
I am saying this because I've been there myself, having followed a gambler for a while as a teenager, seen him win and seen him loose, seen his reactions on both circumstances and I myself understanding the satisfaction that comes with winning in gambling even while I was not a gambler, had this feeling of winning other than loosing the very first day I decided to gamble.
I understand the context you are coming from though, but I am just trying to make you understand that your context doesn't play out for every new gambler, people get into gambling under different conditions and circumstances which affects their mindset right before their first game, this have nothing to do with beginners luck as this is a separate discussion altogether.
