Do you really have such experience sometimes when you want to gamble? and if you do how was the turn of event when you listened to your instinct and also the other way round.

I sometimes do, and I find nothing wrong with it; its something that's inherently in anyone. As long as you are betting with money that you can afford to lose and you are not trusting your instinct to the point that you will go overboard with your bankroll, there's no guarantee in gambling, so don't be 100% sure of your instinct. You can follow or ignore it as long as you are limited to your bankroll.
To me I understand that instinct plays a bit important aspect of our lives while gambling, because if you listen to your instincts you know that not all match you would include into your bet because they poses every possibility to terminate your running games, but if you follow them is fine you will definitely avoid them either all or partially.
Following your instincts on the moment that you do able on having it on the moment you do gamble or bet then it will really be that up to you. You will basically be basing up on the history that you've been able to experience in the past on the moment or time that instincts do kick in. When you are really that having some bad results out of your instincts calls then most of the time you will really be that ignoring it or simply
would be going against it since you do already have that bad experience into it on which if it goes totally opposite on which every gut feeling or instincts turned out to be positive or you do have that more winning
bets or rolls then it will really be normal that you will be that going with those moments at the time that you will be able to make yourself having those instincts at the moment or time that you do gamble.

Results and outcomes will really be that totally random of course on which us humans does have those kind of inner voices or those feelings on which we do want to bet on a particular option despite on having those less chances of winning and even your own awareness tells that it is really that impossible to win up. It all matters into your experience and past situations on which if you do find yourself profitable
then this is where you would really be trying out to stick yourself into.

I don't follow my instincts when gambling because it's wouldn't bring luck to me. I gamble for fun during my leisure time, and most times is on sportbet. I already know the strength of the clubs that are playing and the one that's favorite to win the match. I just place my bet on the favorite team to me and that's all. I watch the matches to enjoy the entertainment and improve my knowledge more to use it as an advantage on my next bet.

It is fine you gamble for fun but however sometimes I believe you have that feelings to do the needful but  it just that you will have to do it in the way you just want to gamble for fun and whatever be the result, you do not bother about it since you already have your mind and thoughts fixed to gambling for fun. You already knowing the strength of the team is a good strategy and analysis on your side so you would take advantage of it to do your betting and since you already have the made up your mind to watching match for entertainment purpose, I believe you would not have any feelings with the result of the game.

no, I don't rely on truths, they are often wrong, this has been proven more than once. I focus more on whether I am in the mood to play or not, if the day is not going well, then I will hardly even bet on my favorite club, since the emotions from watching will not be the same and even winning will not bring pleasure.Only the luck factor works in gambling, no rituals or traditions will help.

What you said still falls under instinct because of how you detect which day is grand or unfavorable. So, the inner mind plays a role in luck. When a player feels fortunes around, they tend to wager funds. These thoughts could be enforced by other attributes like the activities of the day as you said. But it's what made the gambler to spend funds to try if their idea would work.

Everyone has instincts and some lead them to their death, a soldier had the instinct to change his location on the battlefield and he stepped on a land mine, which took his life, sometimes even curiosity put many into problems.

If I have to advise anyone about gambling I will tell them to put aside their curiosity and instincts, they don't always work, instead they should focus on managing risks, like risking only what they can afford to lose.

Gambling not for money making sakes only, but for entertainment purposes too, this will make you think very well before taking any stupid risks.

I learned a lesson that sometimes our instincts could be wrong and sometimes it will have a perfect prediction. But still, I always try to also listen to my instinct because it could also help at choosing what bet you want.
Analysis in sports betting should not be forgotten though, we cannot just rely on instinct alone and we must enhance our chances of winning by using facts, records, and history. Those things will still be the main ingredient to have a higher winning rate chance.
True! We might not pay attention to it often, but our instincts play a significant role in our decision-making processes, especially in activities like sports betting. When analyzing teams and players, we tend to rely on logical reasoning, considering factors like past performance and team dynamics. However, when it comes to predicting the outcome of a game, we often rely on instinct.

For instance, you might predict that Team A will win 2-0 against Team B without having any concrete evidence or strategy to back up your claim. You simply rely on your gut feeling or instinct. This phenomenon is not limited to sports betting; it also applies to other games like poker.

Sometimes, you might feel an inexplicable urge to play a game or make a move that deviates from your usual game. You might ignore conventional wisdom and try something different, simply because you have a feeling about it. While it's not always reliable, instinct can indeed play a factor in our gambling decision-making.

This reminds me of the thread I just replied to about the existence of good streaks in gambling. In this case it is the same; if you studied statistics applied to gambling you would stop believing in the power of intuition, streaks and the like. For me, the ones who rely the most on the supposed intuition are the ones who end up having problems, trusting that according to their intuition, which has not helped them because they have already lost everything they set out to do, this time it will be right when they are betting over the budget trying to chase their losses.

Sometime instinct can be your worst nightmare because you have a trauma and experience which you can't overcome it, so it affect your calculation and analysis. Make sure to beat your emotion and instinct if you're playing in skill based games, always rely on your analysis.

If the results turns wrong, you can improve your calculation and analysis to be better.

But, if you still rely on your emotion and instinct, I would say it's better to not made any analysis because it becomes useless.

Our instinct can gives solution when we can playing gambling or still take a rest for a while. We just don't want to spend the money without knowing anything related to casino and the games.

But if you lose your money because following your instinct, that will be not your real instinct but that could be a greed that comes to you. Our instinct comes in the right time and guide us to see how big our chance to placing a bet.

But we can follow our instinct when we hear or see that we have a chance to win. It is not easy to know if that is our real instinct or greedy because that can be manipulate by the greedy.

There are good instincts, some are bad actually that lead us into losing even more. There are times that our instincts could be reliable, but most of the time it’s not. That makes me decide not to go betting following my instincts. Gambling is never a game of instinct and wild guesses, but it’s more on a game of chance and luck, and few are skill-based, so if you decide to gamble, always weigh what could be the impact of your instinct, if it could be reliable or will only make you fall even more on the urge of gambling.

The math is clear here, every bet we make has its own chance of winning/losing and its own multiplier. Gambling is a game of instincts and wild guesses, we all have some "grand master plan" in our heads when we decide to gamble... the way we choose a game to play to some strategy we will apply. We can't separate those things, it's in us. And most of us experienced "wild" gambling... sometimes it's because we tilted, and sometimes it's because we got in a "fire mode" after winning some good hits. Both can be pretty crazy & wild.

I try to explain that any style of gambling is fine. We who have been gambling for a very long time have gone through many stages... but no matter how you turn, nothing affects the outcome of the bet. Gambling life is full of ups and downs, we lose and we win, and so on. In the end, the most important thing is to spend only as much as you can afford to lose and to have fun during that time in a way that suits you, and with any strategy/plan/feeling/tactic/instinct/wild guessing that can fall on your mind.

Good luck! It's the weekend and we have nice games to bet on! Smiley

I never gamble with instinct, where I have experienced defeat when I have an instinct to bet and 98% will get a win, but it is very painful not the victory that I get but the extraordinary defeat, honestly I am stressed facing that defeat.
if you're gambling with instinct that means that you are not a gambler and you will end up been distracted, so I believe that in gambling you have to bet without season and you have to bet without having the mindset to win

I thin it is controversial. First of all how come someone place a bet without a wish to win? Minority gamble for fun and for the sake of a process, majority still gamble to win money. Sadly, such character skills as patiens, self control does not help to win a lot. I would say it helps mostly not to lose a lot or quickly, or to win a bit. You say that instinct is not importand, but arent all large wins were made when a person knew when to place a large bet and to risk. Isnt it an instinct?

When you talk about luck-based games, you can't really have such assurance of winning. Even if your instincts is saying that you will have a very good chance of winning, you still can't count on it.
There are times that our instincs would tell us that we're lucky upon playing those luck based games. You're right that they're not always right and sometimes it is the reason why we'd just lose money from gambling because of being too trusty with our own instincs.

At the same time, it could also be the reason why we've won such and our instincs have told us to gamble more and the results are impressive. So, sometimes it's nice to follow it but there are times that we need to be cautious too because it's not good for us.

It's also normal when we have moments that we don't even trust our own intuition because of our past experiences.

It's not surprising that intuition works. It happens that not always, but this does not negate the very fact of intuitive foresight. And of course, intuition can also work for gambling. However, the success of foresight depends very much on the individual characteristics of the individual. Intuition cannot be "pumped up", you can only be born with a highly developed intuition. Personally, I do not have such a quality, or it is weak, so I do not rely on an intuitive hunch before making a bet.

This is an interesting discussion in my opinion, because I myself sometimes listen to my instincts and sometimes ignore my instincts when I am going to gamble or am gambling. When I gamble and experience defeat, my instincts sometimes still push me to continue gambling, but with my brain thinking "it's useless, the results will be the same" this sometimes makes me have a dilemma about which one to follow, sometimes I lose control and what I do is continue the gambling session with the same results, which are disappointing.
In addition, we can learn from what happened before, which is whether we listen to our instincts or not because it will produce results later. Another thing is that I think everyone has been trapped by their own instincts and is in an unfavorable situation.

It could be a coincidence, but it could also do some good work because of how people behave when they want something. If you try to do it most of the time, it shouldn’t be that much work, but you could try to count and know if it is effective.

It’s probably like meditation and manifestation stuff.
Relying on this kind of strategy can get really stressful as it might even make you start doubting yourself over time. For regular gamblers, it’s better to have a solid system to follow and only consider instincts as a last resort, or when your system doesn’t give a clear answer for a bet.... honestly, gambling based on emotions is a recipe for disaster. Most of the time, it just leads to failure, so if that’s how you approach gambling, it’s definitely time for a change.

Sometimes nature has its own way of doing things which we can not understand, it prevents occurrences and also makes things happens positively if only we are very much attentive to some signs it gives out before we taking actions. I believe we all here have  our mind and our instinct tells us much more of occurrences  before they take place to our consciousness.  I will like to relate it to us that are into gambling and hear how our experience has been like so far.

I have had this experience on several occasion were I would be having this feelings to bet on a particular game which sometimes I ignore and the game turn out to be a perfect one and in some cases I bet and win and also when my instinct does not allow me to bet I just go ahead for fun and it turns out to be a bad one though which I just did for fun but at the entire end I have this feelings in me that I should not have gambled that game maybe I should have just watched for fun and do my things. It just happens sometimes that we do have that feelings and when it occurs, some are sensitive enough to listen to their instinct while some do not really understand why they feel that way and after playing, they have a bad time and call it a luck based thing. Do you really have such experience sometimes when you want to gamble? and if you do how was the turn of event when you listened to your instinct and also the other way round.

My bets are mostly on sports, so it is very difficult for me to bet on instinct; many of my bets are based purely on technical analysis.

I only rely on instinct when I need to "break a tie" in a technical decision or when the technical data is non-existent or very superficial.

Technical analysis allows me to identify betting opportunities based on historical events, identify factors that can influence the outcome of a game, such as the strength of the squad, home or away performance, weather conditions and even the style of play of each team. There is a lot of useful data that guides me to bet for or against that team in future games. It is impossible to ignore historical data and bet solely based on intuition.

Of course, technical analysis is not infallible because every sport is also unpredictable and there are several other factors that can influence the results of a game, such as injuries to key players, tactical changes and even the element of chance, but I still would not trade a technical analysis for intuition.
