honestly I didn't see anyone getting very optimistic when placing a bet, in fact people to be able to win a lot of money in games of chance like sports betting, they need to put a lot of money in the bet, for example if a person bets on a game in which he has @ 1.50 then for that person to win a lot he would have to put a lot of money and his profit would be 50%, if that person is to bet on a game in which he has odds of @ 2.00 then that person will be running a lot of risk of losing money, if a person makes a multibet bet the risk increases so aware of all these obstacles
I don't see people getting too anxious or happy or too optimistic or too hopeful when they place a bet, at least most people don't get hopeful, it could be the case that some newbies get too optimistic on their first bet, but when they lose a lot they immediately start putting their feelings aside and start placing bets based on data and not emotions, this happens to everyone when they start placing sports bets, in my case I went through this too. I remember that at first I was already very optimistic even before seeing the result
Topic: Gamblers Belief - page 4. (Read 571 times)
That belief is the reason why most gamblers keep gambling, otherwise, once you've lost a significant amount by constantly losing the bets, you would never gamble again, but only because they believe that they will win any time soon which makes them keep gambling, but to be honest, the reality usually stays on the other side, no matter how much belief someone has, they will still keep losing in the long run but the belief doesn't let them realize it before it's too late.
People who gamble with this much belief and determination can achieve great things in life if they face the challenges and have the same level of belief that they will get success if they keep struggling and working hard, but unfortunately, their belief doesn't work on other things and they give up easily.

Positive thoughts and having hope will make you to be strong in whatever that you are doing. Gamblers will always have hope of winning and that is why most times,you can't convince a gambler not to place his bet on a game. Having hope can attract luck,and luck will bring the wins.
Whenever that I am gambling I do have that feeling of winning the game and when I loss,I will not give up the same feeling in my next game. If anyone knows that he will loss his bet,that person will change his pattern of game because nobody will be happy to lose his money to anyone. All gamblers do have hope of winning, including a responsible gambler and an addicted gambler.

Having hope is natural but it can be a double edged sword for you so you should be very careful with your own hope to win in gambling.
In 1 side, a hope can make you confidence on what you are going to do but in other side it may drive you to the worst case (addiction).
All in all, the most important thing is not belief of having luck but I will say it is belief of having a full control for ourselves while gambling.

If you want to see a person full of hope and belief, then gamblers are the perfect example. The hope of winning and the belief to win is found in gambling. Even if you tell them that gambling is risky and the result may come out differently (not in his favor), they refuses to accept it and have 100% belief that they will win at any cost.
This type of belief and commitment is not found in any other walk of life. People doing business or spending money somewhere have doubt and fear that things can do against them, and they may face loss too but the gamblers are so firm in their belief that they never look at the other side of the picture. They want the win, and they 100% know in their subconsciousness that they will win. that is the reason they will never hesitate to put money into gambling.
We are not talking about the result which comes later on, once they gamble. They may lose too but the passion and belief of winning among the gamblers can't be seen anywhere else.
This may apply to him who has won many times, this logic and belief always surrounds him, so what he has they bet on gambling, because with certain reasons he gets the victory again, that belief stands firm in him, and with that they always try to find his victory again, not thinking about returning the money he has deposited into gambling, but he is looking forward to his victory again which gives him pride in his life.This type of belief and commitment is not found in any other walk of life.

why don't they do that in the other side of life, because i don't think they have the same passion as winning in gambling.
I personally believe there is a problem behind the scenes if a person actually believes or have a blind faith their victory is a matter of time rather than matter of mathematics. Actually, even if I do not have further proof about it, I would be willing to say that having that kind of mindset is the first step towards becoming a person addicted to gambling and staying in that position, because as many of us are already aware, stubbornness is an usual characteristic of those who are proven to suffer compulsive gambling. The same stubbornness which can lead toward the loss of money and the support of family and friends...
Yes, it's true, the mindset of every gambler is different, but when it comes to their beliefs, they share the same goal. I guess it seems like this belief stems from the steps they go through from gambling, maybe because in the beginning they were given a lot of wins or something else. They have their own problems in their gambling, and I think it is very difficult to find evidence or tell what they are experiencing, especially about the problems why they can put so much trust in them because these problems are under the consciousness of every gambler so they are difficult to fix or direct to a better path. For someone who is addicted, this is commonplace for a gambling addicts where most of them will put high hopes and faith in gambling to win.copper member

As a business owner. I do 100% believe that my business will become successful while I think gambling as 50% success rate of winning. Only fools will believe that they will win 100% on gambling since it’s luck based game with house edge disadvantage. All odds is in favor to the casino so being confident on winning to gambling is a very absurd belief.
I think those belief that most people use when gambling is just for the purpose of boosting their spirits to become positive on gambling. But believing that you will be 100% won on a game that is pure random is an absurd thing to do.

- The belief of a gambler is that they have given up their hope of betting on gambling which can set them free when they get the jackpot prize here and that is hard to overcome in their mind.
They no longer see the value of what they lose in gambling because they think that when they win and get the jackpot, they will get back all the amount they lost in gambling, that's how dedicated they are to their extraordinary belief
Being hopeful is not a bad thing right?
We're all hopeful even the not gamblers. It's just what humans are we are hopeful til we thrive. Tomorrow will be better that is what we always think just as we hope for next year's bull market. And it did happen. 2022 seem to be one of the bearest year but we survived kicking and gambling still. 2023 seems a lot better and gamblers still betting. As long as there is something to hope for like BTC, we remain hopeful.
By having hope we can be more enthusiastic and have confidence for something better in the future, after all having hope is human nature and cannot be separated from everyone whether in the gambling industry, cryptocurrency or even in social life.We're all hopeful even the not gamblers.

But it needs to be underlined that if you hope too much for something that you feel is impossible, sometimes it will only give you a deep feeling of disappointment, so expect it naturally and don't overdo it because anything can happen, not even according to expectations.
You have to be optimistic once there is nothing else left. Some people put all their hope in one lottery ticket, after learning they didn't win the next day they were alright still. They know it's a long shot. Somehow it's only hope that made some people alive.
Different situations when you won't need to lift your hopes up too much. But gamblers know, that rooting for an upset is a long shot. One go actually bets for the leading team but he gambles and is hopeful.

Not all gamblers are like that and should not be like that because this is the kind of gambler that refuse to give up, chasing his losses and allocating more than he can afford its risky behavior, and there should be a point gambler should give up, gambling is not an interest where you can pour and make a strong belief that you can win because the house will always win and you will end up with nothing, only compulsive gamblers do thisQuote

If I'm this kind of gambler, then gambling will be a source of disappointment for me, I just cross my fingers and hope to win but in the back of my mind I just knew that I could lose, so I just accept whatever the outcome is. 
It doesn't hurt to believe on your bet, so long as you are not trusting it blindly and putting a lot of money in it that will put you in a tough position. There's some kind of luck that goes to those who are positive in what they do, although it's mostly superstitious in nature but I do cling to it as it has happened to me a lot of times. Putting faith in what we do is one thing, but leaving rationality behind is another.

Well some of those gamblers had firm believe in winning their bet was usually based on the matches they placed their bet on with regards to soccer betting, for instance if Man City a strong team in EPL is playing a bottom club like Everton they will pick Man City a straight win against Everton though the odd of that pick is very small, they will also analyze matches from other European leagues where top teams are playing lower team and pick top team to win to accumulate their odds with those combination a gambler will tell you that their are chances of winning is a sure bet, well in most cases luck is on there side while at times upset is often created where a lower team drew or even defeat the top team thus ended up in a lossing the bet. Well some might lucky to have an edge over the bookies in the long run probably that is what is keeping them to continue to gamble.

If you don't believe in it then what's the reason of going into it at the first place, before every gamblers make predictions they've already pictured the benefits of the outcome of the event and decided to risk going into it, so it the believe you've developed for it's success that would trigger you to gamble, the thing is no matter the amount of risk involved in something so far someone has made up their mind and decided to embark on something it's mostly difficult to convince them about it and same applies in gambling, because it would be very difficult to convince young lads that has made huge profit from gambling to quit, because they've been given every benefit out doubt over any advise you try using to talk them out of it.This type of belief and commitment is not found in any other walk of life.

Gambling is a game of chance and the belive would also be there so far you've decided to play especially on online casino where bettors believe outcome of a game must either produce a winner or lesser and would go for their preferred options, in gambling there's nothing like a 100% success and your predictions are based on your believe for any possible outcomes.

To be fair, OP. Even though I agree mostly that mindset can be easily found in gamblers, there is a fairly big percentage of people who are well aware of the risks, those I like to talk not-fully dedicated gamblers or casual gamblers.

As said by @OP, gamblers are categorized as gamblers who have no self-control because they have hope and belief that they can win from gambling. They should know that they will not always be able to win from gambling and always control themselves in spending their money to gamble. If they can't do that, they are not wise gamblers because they are still following their lust to get winnings from gambling. If they can control themselves, that will save them from ruin or bankruptcy from gambling so they can still enjoy gambling as entertainment.
Maybe it's more precise in my opinion besides because they always believe that they will win too because they get pleasure so that it always makes them go back to gambling even though the results are not what they expected, and again not just at this time but from the very beginning of its appearance gambling is an activity that is difficult to forget or leave not because they are addicted but it is like a common or ordinary activity even though many people also think that gambling is a harmful activity.
But reading what Op said, it does happen to most gamblers who continue to gamble even though they haven't produced anything good or even when they are calculated losses more than earn, they keep playing because they like it, not only because they are optimistic that later they can get good results, but because the feeling of interest in continuing to play is always there, especially when there are types of games that are really they like, such as card games.

Of course, when we play, we should be very positive that we are going to win, not just to win, but win big, like in a lottery.

I disagree though, it could be found in other walks or life. Even when we are very young we already have this kind of mentality. For example, if we take exams in schools, we always belief that we are going to pass it,
We are not talking about the result which comes later on, once they gamble. They may lose too but the passion and belief of winning among the gamblers can't be seen anywhere else.
So when we don't have passion or feel like not going to play because we have negative mentality then we should stop gambling then.

Not really sure what you meant here, and for me, it's a bad analogous in my opinion. Remember that gambling is a risk and it's based on pure luck. What I'm seeing here is just what we call gamblers fallacy and not a belief or commitment per se.
And so in other facets of life, like if you want to succeed then yeah, you have to commit your life to it, let's say you put up a business and want it to grow. But in gambling? it's either you are lucky that day or not. It has nothing to do with your commitment or belief.

Do something full of faith, it is the foundation of someone starting a business and whatever they want to do, it's a fact and reality for people who want to do it.However, I think that belief has a place, for me we cannot place one belief in gambling, because gambling is a game, where people have to gamble based on strategy, skill, knowledge and so on, in my opinion, belief does not make sense.
Example:
Sports betting for example: Arsenal vs. Leicester City, there are some gamblers, they are very sure that Leicester City will win this match, in fact, Arsenal won on the field.
Likewise with Roulette betting, we believe the yellow round stops, the next round that stops is white, and also other gambling games.
What else do we believe that gambling can make us rich, ahhhh we're finished.
