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.
it is clear that is some people gamble with instinct, and some people also Gamble based on what they know and what they don't know but gambling so for me the major reason why some people participate in gambling it is because the love gambling and they have experienced it before so nobody can Gamble based on bias mind you must stop gamble based on what you have experience or what you have learned or had some people about the gambling like me if high participate in gambling the major reason why I participated in gambling is because I have a target and I cannot follow the method other people follow to gamble and I most derived my own means of gambling that will favor me instead of me to gamble with some people's idea. 
Topic: Do you listen to your instinct before gambling? - page 5. (Read 2746 times)
Not all the time that instincts will work because we do know that gambling or betting could really be having that random results on which it will really be affected with different factors specially that luck factor thing.Even if you do say that you are really that having those guts or intuition on the moment you do play but still it wont really be that enough for you to have such assured winning bet. Therefore, it will really be just that basing up on your experience whether you would really be listening out with those intuition calls or would really be sticking into your analysis on which you had made out earlier. There are really those conditions on which it will really be giving out some torn in between decisions to be made specially if there's really that kind of hesitance on which you are really that trying out to choose up on which one.
I agree with you mate, our instincts are not always correct, in fact it’s just a mere feeling which has high probability of failing since it just an idea from our heads. Wining a bet depends on luck full time. Even if your instinct were correct, it only happened because you were lucky. Gamblers who thinks they’ve cracked a cheat code because they got lucky for a good number of trial, often end up losing more after using some strategy for a while. Well from my experience my instincts had always been the determinant of my selected game and the options, but I loss more than winning, and I believe this is common among gamblers.
I like the idea as it's true where most of those gamblers who do think that they managed to breakout and Crack that code will continue being lucky, once the system no longer working they'll just keep topping more money on their account and lose more than they can afford, instinct might be good or bad depending on how luck permits, though some gamblers will tend to follow as they are okay risking with their own assessment and analysis. Still a need of good research and assessment to have a better chance of winning.

Since gambling is all about taking risks, it is very good if we always check our instincts when gambling.
Check instincts? Is it very helpful to increase the chance of winning the games?I am not really sure that it is a very effective way to check instincts. TBH, I highly doubt it, instincts can go very wild. I prefer to make a small analysis when it is possible to be done. For example in betting a football match, we can analyze their current stats and the players condition before the match is started.
Once we understand the game we are playing and what it involves for each gamblers to make money, the rest will not be a problem.
Yep. If we understand the nature of gambling, we won't be very disappointed whenever we get losses. That's why understanding the nature of gambling is very necessary. So, we can be easier to control our emotion during the games. Since gambling is all about taking risks, it is very good if we always check our instincts when gambling. Gambling is fun if we know how to go about it especially when putting efforts to make money. I like it when gamblers gamble when they are less busy or when they needed money. Making money from gambling is all about luck when it comes to casino games and skill with strategy when it comes to sport betting. Once we understand the game we are playing and what it involves for each gamblers to make money, the rest will not be a problem.
In my opinion a successful gambler has to keep in mind two things in order for them to keep bringing in profits in the long term, ones of them is having a very good gut feeling and trusting their instincts for each match they are considering to wager money on, on the other hand they have also need to have a minimum of knowledge about the sport of the teams which will be involved in the match in questions.
It would be fruitless only to rely in gut feeling if one does not have a basic understanding on how the sport works and which teams are more likely to win against others.
Only betting on gut feeling would be the equivalent on tossing s coins and hope for the best to happen, it is the careful analysis which makes the difference and helps us to increase our chances beyond the Fifty percent of tossing a coin in order for us to get profits from our predictions.
That is what I think...

Lets be honest here. Instinct has nothing to do with gambling. You might be in a losing streak, but then your 'instinct' says that you might win the next bet. And when you lose the bet, you have a stronger instinct that you will win the next one. But that is just an excuse or a way of convincing yourself to keep on gambling and chasing your profit. If you do end up winning the next bet, it was not because of your instinct, but it was because you just got lucky! Never rely on instinct when gambling. Instead look at the numbers and your finances.
Can't agree more. Also, these instincts are just something that makes you feel like you're just fine after a series of loses because that same instinct is telling you that you will gonna win the next bets. It's just the same as the superstitious or lucky charms you bring before you gamble, it does not really have a significant effect on the outcome of your bets, but it's just there to make yourself feel better and not to worry so much. What the majority fail to realize that casinos are built to make everyone lose eventually.
Therefore, it is very important to set a certain limit and control your greed while gambling. Because due to uncontrolled gambling, you will not understand when you have started gambling beyond your ability, as a result of which you will have to face a lot of losses. So always keep yourself in control and see gambling as just a form of entertainment.
I completely get you mate , is instincts and luck sometimes work together given a nice result, but not always do sometimes your instincts can also lead to huge losses ( I will say most time ) , because there's nothing you can do aslong your funds is already staked your money is now in the hand of faith so either you win or lose it is two way . There's why it is good to hear responsible when gambling because you can't stop losses or winning but rather you can reduce the amount of funds you can lose .

Gambling is something that only requires skill in some games and also luck in other games, so indeed relying on instinct in gambling can be very misleading and lead us to addiction, in my opinion statistics and analysis of games and bets can actually provide a stronger basis for making wise decisions for us in gambling or betting, in my opinion, those who gamble should be able to think realistically and also have limits so that at least we are not too involved in the losses that exist due to gambling.
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.
When frustration starts to set in it's important to just back off for a while because that mental stress can lead to negative thoughts of trying to come up with a loss aversion scheme that might bring about more losses. Most of the time gambling is all about luck so it doesn't matter if you gamble based on instincts or analysis. But whatever the case maybe you shouldn't be stressed out too much if you are gambling responsibly, this can only affect you if you lose huge amounts of money, if that's the case try to cut down your stakes as a way to approach it differently.

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.
A lot of people are actually confused about instincts, some persons speak to themselves and feel or believe that their instincts is the one speaking to them, and it's actually hard to differentiate because most can not really tell when their instinct is talking to them because it's not something they even know about, and even if they know, they don't in reality, know how this operates.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.

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.
Personally, I have lost a lot of bets while believing in my instincts, or maybe like I explained above, my instinct never really speak to me, but it was just me talking to myself through my mind.
Then thing is, for some people, it's hard to tell when their instinct is talking to them, because there is alot of noise and distraction in the world that we live, instincts don't speak in noisy places because it knows that we won't do what it's telling us to do, and this is because we are not paying attention.
So, in the nutshell, I have never really had any of such experiences with my instinct telling me to play a game or not, what ive always believed to be my instincts speaking to me has always turned out to be actually me talking to myself.
Lets be honest here. Instinct has nothing to do with gambling. You might be in a losing streak, but then your 'instinct' says that you might win the next bet.

We need to understand that gambling is all about luck only. No instinct or strategy can make you win the games if your luck isn’t favouring you. Yes, you can control the influence of the luck by doing sports betting instead of casino gambling. In sports betting some skills are required to predict the outcomes. Here some also bet with instinct but there is always very less chance that you will make profit. So it’s your hard earned money. So gamble responsibly.
Exactly, sooner most gambler understand this sooner the better, they literally think they can develop a strategy that will guarantee them wins in casino games, when it is obvious, that what they just need some luck , because gambling mainly About lucks .
But when it comes to sport betting their planning addup to their luck, because most time some people can easily predict sport game just by using the previous match outcome .
Basically, instinct does not always work well, so gamblers still have to make efforts to get a win by whatever means and experience they have and not just rely on instinct alone. Although, I personally will also admit that instinct can still give results that might turn out to be good in gambling as well, although winning in gambling might be more of a luck factor. But, it doesn't mean that instinct doesn't work completely because after all, even if gamblers bet only on instinct and don't do any strategy but if they are lucky, then they will still win.
Lately I don't trust my instinct anymore because when I did , I ended up picking wrong games , wrong teams and sometimes even the wrong sports so no more instinct for me. I just place bets plain and simple by just going with the flow and I must say it's way better than "listening to your instinct and then blame yourself because you listen it or not" and that is the awful part of it.
So sorry about your experience though and from what you have said, I think there's the possibility that it likely might not work for everybody. Sometimes, there's also the possibility that one might not be stable to really take what their inner mind is telling them as a result of their instability and they just assume something not really correct. Most times it takes calmness for one to listen to their inner mind to get clues of what they want to hear.
I will tell you about why they really listen to their instincts to be used as a basis for making decisions, I am sure that it is done because of the level of trust and belief that is too high in winning, or they could be too obsessed with winning so that they are really sure of their instincts, but unfortunately the results in gambling cannot be controlled by your feelings, and well I also agree with what you said that besides the obsession with winning, greed is also one that can really influence every decision that will be taken by a gambler, although basically the decision seems unreasonable to others but for people who are greedy and obsessed with winning, they will definitely not hesitate with their decision. Actually that doesn't matter but the problem here is that it is very unlikely for them to be able to accept if the result turns out to be a loss, so in essence yes we must be able to distinguish what type of game we are playing, if it is indeed sports betting then yes as you said that we have to learn various things to gain skills, and other things that are most important to become a responsible gambler.
You are right about that so that is why they have a high confidence with their instinct and listen to that before they decide. Somehow they don't analyze the market but just listen to their instinct because they think that their instinct will be sharper than the analyze. But that is not always right because if they want to analyze the match and they can also use their instinct, that will be a good thing for them so they can choose the right team. If they can use both thing, they may improve their skill better so maybe they will also have a high rate of winning in that match. But if they still using their instinct in the betting, they will difficult to choose the right team because all things will be based on what their instinct tell. I just worry if that instinct can turn to be a greedy especially if they win for one or two times. That can makes their belief in their instinct will increase and they will not want to learn about analyze. If that so, they really gamble with their money but they just waste their money without have a chance to win and only lose their money.On the other hand, actually whatever the method is, it is still very possible to make you greedy especially after you have managed to achieve a number of wins, but yes I also agree that instinct can really push someone to be greedy, so you must still have control and the right way of thinking such as understanding that regardless of anything and however you treat gambling in the end the risk will always be part of the game.

This statement is not just inaccurate, it also shows you do not understand gambling or see people's reactions to it. To make you understand at the simplest, I've seen people who lost or won big with gambling on TV saying they followed their instinct, could it be that they do not know the meaning of instinct? Instinct is synonymous with intuition, so I see your statement as inappropriate when many gamblers are actually identified with it. Except you are not an active gambler, especially the casino branch of it, you will use your instinct at some point, if not all the time.Please read: 1. What Reuters has to say.

I don`t think that we can call it "instinct". It looks mostly like the kind of addiction. Instinct is about when you plan to bet and make a bet without any analyze, just believe your foreseeing as for me.But even in such a situation i think that such kind of "instinct" is based on your own experience, you`ve got in gambling before.
On the one hand, if you make your analysis and win your bet, you will not understand the great impact that your luck added to make your win come through because you will feel that it was by your own doing.
