Topic: Does hard work in gambling count? - page 4. (Read 12172 times)

Some gambling games might require a mixture of skill, luck, experience and strategy, so the answer for that is "yes". However, for games that would only require luck and intuition I think the amount of time spent has no bearing, what important is you know the game and it's mechanics.

It adds excitement when you are doing good and you are receiving some profits, when you already learned how to make a good strategy while playing either online or with your friends, if there's something that you can win then it's adding the enjoyable experienced, you have to play well since you are expecting to win something out from the game.

You can learn to play card games in any way, but in order to achieve a result, it is not always necessary to use real money bets.  It seems to me that there is already quite a lot of excitement in the card game, even if you play not for something, but in the circle of friends in offline.

Nope but at least poker also needs some skills so in the end you can get better if you work hard on it. For slots you get press that button as much as you like, but harder work will never let you win more on that.

maybe capital is the main factor in being able to learn the poker game patterns that you do, of course the lessons you get to be able to play with mature strategies You need to spend a lot of capital first to continue the game. Unlike the case with offline poker games as you mentioned, of course it can be played anytime without having to spend capital

...learning when it is best to check, call, raise, bluff, fold, etc.

You can apply what you have experienced with poker but it won't guarantee you a win. You can learn on how to bluff and when to fold but it's just like that but it won't be 100% of winning.

I think the gambling is also need the hard work to be performed

that's why I think if you put an effort to become successful in something then the hard work will not never fails that's it is the truth also.

I am curious to know if someone continually invested a lot of time in studying a game involved in gambling, further if he had played the game a lot to understand the intricacies involved, then can we call him an expert in that gambling game? If we do call him an expert then we clearly differentiate his experience and expertise from that of a novice. This clearly shows that the person is capable of winning more as an expert than the novice who really does not have the in-depth understanding of the play.

This brings us to an interesting question if hard work in gambling really pays off? If one puts in a lot of efforts to understand a game involved in gambling, does it mean that all his time has gone down the drain? Certainly no. If gambling were simply a blind guess or a wild shot then even years of studying it makes it useless because one is simply guessing the outcome blindly. But such is not the scenario with gambling in reality. What makes hard work count in gambling?

This further sets off the question of addiction in gambling. Work can also be an addiction for many. But here the addiction could be for perfecting the game and the art of playing. This kind of addiction is to struggle every time for success by proper calculation and review. However, addiction can also be due to pure greed of winning with no clear knowledge of the game. If hard work counts, then we may actually find a solution for a healthier addiction towards success in gambling.

Hardwork per say mostly works in situations were there is a guarantee of achieving similar result if previous steps are been repeated over and over again but since in gambling entirely, your previous success doesn't guarantee future results (succes), hardwork then doesn't have much role to play but can still be useful as hardwork does brings about experience which is an advantage in some specific games like sport betting etc.

Agree if talking games like dice. roulette. lottery and so on. even though some say it can be predicted by solving a hash or a certain algorithm (website lottery) which I believe is all based on luck too. I agree that gambling hardwork is more patient and wise in making decisions. because luck won't always with people forever.

Gambling is based on luck. Skills and intelligence are not that important I think. Unless you are talking about card games where you play head to head versus other players. But generally skills and intelligence will not help you in dice, roulette and many other games.

When two poker professionals meet in gambling will be a real crackers for the two but never forgotten that the best will be victorious among the two poker professionals. Movies show what poker is made up and ensure that it's been followed and can also ake them winners, poker was my first  favourite games while in school

I agree that gambling hardwork is more patient and wise in making decisions. because luck won't always with people forever.

When it comes to poker,hard work and practice can pay out in the long term.
However,there's always a right way and a wrong way to practice.The gambling addicts are going the wrong way,so they never learn from their mistakes and never gain any experience and knowledge.I'm not a poker expert or trainer,so I can't write about the proper way of training poker.
There's no hard work in the 100% luck based gambling games.

On movies I saw people with experience on playing pokers keep winning the gems but on the reality it differs.

When we are experienced we might look more confident it will create paninc on the opposition so it will be helpful but what will happen when two experienced poker player faces?
