Some people think that strong feeling affect the outcome of your bet. But for me its all about luck., what do you think guys.
In my own personal opinion, i think being positive has a affect on your outcome of your bet because many people says once you stay positive good lucks will come to you. But still don't take a lot of risk in playing because maybe you might get addicted if you won a lot of times in gambling.

Yes, I agree with you that if your positive all things will come is positive. I remember a situation that I saw a situation that there two set of people who are playing in a casino. One is a positive vibes just enjoying the game and other is the negative vibes who take the game seriously. As the game goes by the negative is really angry when he is losing and he reach the top that he bet his everything and lose it in an instant.

Lesson learned: dont let negative vibes to destroy your everything because it may leads you to a decision that you didn't think it two times.

Positive thinking is not entirely what counts when it comes to gambling.
I find if I am in rush and just cutting time by placing larger bets to make a profit this affects my edge on gambling more than just having a positive attitude towards the game I am playing.
We need to be extremely lucky if we are to win whiles gambling because positivity can go that far.

That's not really related to positive thinking, that's simply the state of urgency. However I guess being in a state of urgency might affect your positive thinking in some cyclic manner. e.g. I only have 5 minutes left, I'll go all in with 90% odds because I'll probably win. Overall, positive thinking only affects your odds if the game is influenced by emotion, such as poker.

Dont forget, positive thinking can be a boomerang for you. When you are too positive or too believe that you'll win then it can be very bad for you especially you are in a losing streak, if you keep thinking too positive and makes you to keep playing then you may get more and more loses.

Positive thinking may approach positive opinion about the gambling, but there is no 100% assurance that we will win that gambling. Positive approach may create positive thinking about gambling even though we failed to make.
I think it depends upon the situation, like a person in sorrow and he wants to gamble just to escape loneliness then possibly the result is not good due to many things that plays on his mind and can't concentrate to have a good game, and in contrary if a person is too much positive and over confident to win then surely there are more lose along the way.

In a bad mood, people tend to make bad decisions and in games involving money, gambling when we are not in a good mood is not recommended. Positive thinking means we have the confidence to face the game. Sometimes it can be good but it does not guarantee that we get the expected results.

I guess it doesn't matter what mood you have when you are playing gambling, the only difference is that positive mood brings more fun than having negative one. No matter what mood you have, you can't change the fact that gambling is more about losing, and you have to accept that before you engage in gambling.

I also think about it that way because no matter what you think or what you put into your mind at the end of the game it still depends upon your luck if you're going to be the winner or you'll end up losing your money. Sometimes what we feel often doesn't goes the way we wanted it to go but else the opposite way, I guess that is how ironic life is.


Luck is what drives the game only thing is that if you lose out the money then you should have a positive attitude because it is where you require the most as to console that you playing for fun and not to make money else you can become too much deprived if you keep losing money and will have a hazardous effect on yourself.

Positive thinking means if you are mentally relaxed then you will be able to concentrate fully on the game and hopefully you can win the game. I think positive thinking only works in to give full attention to the game and nothing more. Positive thinking is not a trick that will let you win the game. So don’t depend upon positive thinking in gambling.
But I think people take this something else. They don’t believe in negativity of the gambling. They think being positive in gambling as the positive vibes that comes out of a person and motivate him to get into that thing or be determined what you are doing. This can make this person ill mind and he wouldn’t be thinking of his life. So better is to leave this game and live a happy life out there.

Gamblers don’t change their way of thinking easily.
Yes, they want to win that is the only thing in their mind and will not focus on being positive to attract the positive energy. Moreover gambling will not let them to think about other things because this is how gambling addiction works.

When it comes in gambling does mean you are facing the biggest risk in your life where you had the chance of 50-50 or i much more say 20 perfect luck of winning and 80 chance of loosing , Yet people always overcome the fear of loosing money but in the end they still lose everything , the worst is they getting more addictive into gambling, Much better if you are going to face the reality . if you are just betting with your luck much better to quit than think too much that you can really win again the gambling site or physical one.
It is not like gamblers overcome the fear of losing money. The truth is they fail to control their greed. Gambling involves money and gives hopes to player that he can earn some profits for free. Basically zero work and big rewards is what they are after. This greed and temptation clouds one’s brain and he fails to see the risk involved. Gamblers don’t change their way of thinking easily.

Positive thinking may approach positive opinion about the gambling, but there is no 100% assurance that we will win that gambling. Positive approach may create positive thinking about gambling even though we failed to make.

but with positive thinking doesn't guarantee to give effect in gambling so we can win the games but it's more like how we feel before we played gambling and maybe we can be confident to win. I agree that with positive thinking, we can build positive approach too but in gambling, I think it's pure depends on the luck factor and there's nothing we can do about it to win the games.
Remaining positive in gambling doesn’t mean that you will win every game you will play because sometimes, the luck is not on your side and at that time, you have to suffer a loss. Becoming positive in gambling means that you will be able to put more concentration on your game and when you will do this, definitely your chances to win the games will increase.

I do not believe in positive or negative thinking when I play. There are only two case for my gambling -  when it is going and when it's not.  And when I gamble in life one of the point of my luck depends on who mix cards.  It's true that some persons give me better cards than others Cheesy
Gambling is something which entirely depends on your luck and that there is no other thing which can help you at time of doing gambling. There is nothing good which you can get from gambling and that you need to look for the ways which can help you in making some good earning rather than that of helping you in losing your money all the time. do not gamble even if you want to as it will result in loss of money.
You are right, but to some extent I think positive thinking works. Not much but a little bit. I believe totally in luck in gambling. Experience, skills and gambling tactics are more important than positive thinking. Hope you will agree with me in this point. An experienced gambler has greater chances of winning the game rather than a positive thinker.

Positive thinking always brings about good out come generally gambling inclusive. Although at times luck is usually play good role in gambling which means both of them can bring you positive result in your gambling success.

Positive thinking can affect and improve your confidence which is a good drive for you to gamble more but I don't think it will help you win or loose in any way but your wins or loss could be very big compared to how you would have won or lost without that positive mindset.
I think that if you are fresh and can give full concentration to game, you can win because if your mind is interrupted you will never play a good game. Positive thinking no doubt helps in concentration but guarantee for winning the bet. Everything which is done with full concentration gives positive results, but luck plays a vital role in winning a game.

I'm one of it that believes that positive thinking have an impact when you gamble. I don't know on how I ended up thinking about it but it just came to pass that there are too many instances that when I'm positive while having the last money I have, I'm winning. This is base on my experience so I really believe that when you are a positive thinker, luck will come to you and will gamble together with you. This is base on my opinion and I don't want to argue with anyone that stance against.
Okay, I hope this end up lasting long for you as the case may be, because a time will come and trust me, I have been there, where you will let your idea of positive thinking make you lose all that you could have thought you have won over the years and even much more than you will ever imagine.

At that stage, you will think that you are using your positive thinking to want to get back what you have lost, but by then your mind has been so terribly affected that you will be recovering losses and ending up as an addict. Just a friendly warning Wink.
Thanks for that warning, don't worry I'm aware about it. We do know that too much of everything can also cause you to collapse and can lead you to bad results. With my stand as a gambler, I know my limitations but I tend to remain positive when I know the risk that I'm taking is quite high and it gives me the courage to keep on moving though the results may vary. It's applicable for a gambler to stay positive whether we gamble with the amount we afford to lose or not.


It is always good to be positive at everything, not just on gambling but in everything in life. We can't just expect to get positive result when we are so negative all the time, unless we are lucky Wink

Positive atmosphere will not make you earn but it gives us positive towards any sort of work we are doing. In gambling, it is not possible for us to gain profit even though we have positive attitude but we need to have pure luck.
Positive thinking means if you are mentally relaxed then you will be able to concentrate fully on the game and hopefully you can win the game. I think positive thinking only works in to give full attention to the game and nothing more. Positive thinking is not a trick that will let you win the game. So don’t depend upon positive thinking in gambling.

I kind of agree with what you are saying, because in the end it is all a luck's game, but going with negative emotions will affect your decision making, this is a well known fact in any field not just in gambling, if someone goes with his mind thinking about all of his problems and being negative he will likely make the wrong decision, and will win less games compared to the person who is going in with a positive attitude and with nothing on his mind.

Yes, it does, at least it did in when I was gambling most of the time when I was playing stress-free without any greed to make a huge money in short-term I was able to make a small profit and withdraw without any pain.
But sometimes I lost also. Compared to Negative i won more when i played in a positive mindset.
