Haha you are very correct in pointing out that the mathematical expectation cannot be changed by Fenshui.

In my opinion, the most correct solution that will benefit the gambler is the study of game theory, mathematical expectation and probability theory. This will really help you to understand what are the chances of winning in this or that game.

Plus just have COMMON SENSE. In a time line long enough, if a player keeps playing, he/she can never win against the house which has a mathematical edge vs. him/her. He/she can position himself geographically in accordance to "Fengshui", still it cannot break the laws of mathematics for the player. There are no miracles, and there are no accidents in the physical universe.

Feng suit and all other beliefs that people thinks it brought luck when they're gambling is only made to make you feel better when gambling. Being not in the mood while gambling might end up with bad decisions that'll probably going to make you broke. Though it doesn't really have any effects, but then again it is there just to make you feel better.
Nevertheless, calculating your winning rate and risk may help you avoid huge losses and uncontrolled betting.

Being optimistic to win is normal, but knowing your chance and the risk is realistic in gambling. Well, some people are being superstitious, but that's them, we have to respect that and I hope they will still be realistic all the time even if they believe in things to make them lucky.

If this belief gave good results then we would have seen completely different statistics from other countries on gambling in China where a very large number of people are committed to Feng Shui. But unfortunately there are also a lot of people who have become addicted to gambling and also a lot of people who are in debt because of gambling. So faith has no effect on good luck.

Actually it should be, "Faith has no effect on the MATH side of things". If we think about a player who believes in and uses Fengshui to "make him more lucky", and EVERYDAY he plays a casino game that has more than 3% edge against him, who does everyone believe will come out the winner after one year? I am very very sure the winner will be the casino, and the seller of Fengshui cat dolls. Cool

There's no scientific basis for it but if you're going to look at the perspective of others, they believe that there's also a relation to science. Well, that's what they're believing.
But to me, it's not really related to science and all about the belief that has been passed on from generation to generation and until now, it's still keeps on living.

It may also be like what you say because we have seen that Fengshui still exists today even though some people only use it. After all, they still believe in the calculations of Fengshui. We can't change what they believe because it's their right, and maybe letting them stick with it according to their beliefs is the right thing to do. Maybe Fengshui will remain forever because the belief will still be passed down from generation to generation.

Many still believe in feng shui and that won't change. If they've grown up with that belief and think that it's very applicable to their lives, nothing will change.
As they live continually, that will be the belief that they've got because it's a matter of how they've seen the effects of it. They won't mind what the others are going to say because it's so effective for them and they've seen the belief of its good result.

Maybe they must adapt to their surroundings if they are still using Fengshui because other people will certainly not know or use it either. Thus, their lives can be in harmony with their surroundings and there will also be no problems arising. Other people will also not say things to them because the other person will not know what they are doing.

If your ancestor or the culture that you are part of recommends something that will make you lucky, you will apply it to whatever you are doing, and if you're a gambler you try to apply it to give you a bit of luck, many Chinese businessmen believes and apply their business in accordance with Fengshui and its also as risky as gambling so why not try to apply it and see if you are going to get a good result.

There's nothing wrong with it and since each race does have different culture and beliefs then lets just respect on what they are believing on rather than on making some issues or criticisms because if we
do look on them in regard with business and other industries then they've turned out to be that successful which is something that we cant really point out fingers.
Speaking with gambling then its a different thing and i dont see for it to be able to connected on something superstitious beliefs or correlated to it because
luck in gambling isnt something that you could really able to influence nor affect out.

true, it is their tradition, we must respect it and not sneer at it but superstition until now is something that is quite firmly embedded in the traditions of Chinese society

in this modern era, western culture is really against their superstition and this makes western people more free because they don't carry out traditions that contain superstition but the Chinese still live it because they know tradition (barongsai, fengshui, gambling, and angpao) is something that must be preserved forever

Culture and beliefs would really vary into each race's which we know that we do have set of beliefs which we do apply in our daily living and as said as long they dont really
put any harm into other people then there's nothing wrong it it.Neither they do become successful due to those beliefs that they do have or not then its out of our business.
Gambling is purely luck and having some placement and other positioning whether on the venue or other things around isnt something that could really put up
some effect or relevance for you on being lucky on the time you do play gambling.It doesnt really have any sense.

That's true, it resulted in those unfortunate moments for many of those that have thought that they're lucky as they are because they follow feng shui.
Well, for some it did work.
But many of them that have trusted the belief continue to trust it despite that they're not getting the best results that they want.

lmao honestly I thought that feng shui is about putting furniture in the right parts of the room and all that Cheesy

I've never taken this seriously, as well as horoscopes, for example. Still, if it helps someone to win, then ok

placing furniture or even building a house based on feng shui is just a part of it but it is more than that. you'd be surprised what other things feng shui offers, I'm not a believer by the way and yeah, I consider it as a superstition but some people actually believe so much about it that I kind of feel that they consider it some kind of religion(some of my relatives are huge believers in it).

Lots of Fengshui believers in our country is also doing the same thing every new year believing that the arrangementt of their furniture has something to do with their luck. Fengshui is actually a broad thing for believers because they could relate everything to it. They could rely on their future, relationships, and fate on it.

In short, this is a tradition and culture of the Chinese people that for them must really be believed and followed, or else you will be looked down upon no matter what you do in life. It's just like the topic you made for them if you want to win in the world of gambling those guides that they showed in the source you gave should be followed by gamblers who want to win and get lucky in gambling, that's all I see the objective of that article.

But in fairness, there are other people who are not Chinese but they follow this tradition thinking that it will bring them good luck in life and they did everything according to this Feng Shui.

People like to believe in things that give them luck. Who hasn't used a token in any form with the hope that it brings luck. Like bringing a small in your pocket to a big exam. As a kid I got some small crystal from my aunt from Africa, she told me that it has a lot of positive energy and I kept it with my pens through high school and university. Only the believe in it actually working helped me calm my nerves before important exams. The same thing is with Feng Shui, as long people believe in it it's helpful. A question I would have here is, if casinos build their casinos with a Feng Shui approach, are they doing so for the gambler or themselves? The gambler might look at it as better luck for his chance of winning. But isn't it also better luck for the casino owners to make more money? Or are these two cancelling each other out and in the end nobody has a benefit.

I guess it's just really a matter of preference and a matter of belief. If you believe something might bring you luck and good provision then do it. As long as you won't harm anyone in the process of giving good luck to yourself, I don't see any problem. Each people have their own fair shares of beliefs, traditions, customs, and habits. Some were formed and introduced at an early age. If a person believes in feng shui, we don't have the right to question why they do because it's none of our business in the first place.

It's just that every people have their own strong suit. If they prefer to believe in one thing to gain confidence in doing anything such as gambling, then let's let them do it for themselves. After all, not everything is calculated. Sometimes, some things happen because of luck as well.

It is a spiritual belief there's a lot of introduction to us on how to get and attract luck and one of these in the other's culture is the Fengshui and this thing is always done by the people who make a try at the first time and experience the luck by that they now see this as part of their routine getting positive energy and also because of the possible luck it brings in the business other people do the same way, of course, people want to have a luck at the same time, if it works good if not still okay nothing lose.

It's pseudoscience but its method isn't scientifically based. I guess you're believing that it's science-based because of the calculation. But if you'll analyze the whole thing and also research what it means, you'll find that it's just all about superstitions. As being applied to lives and how to get luck, then it's also applicable to gambling and you'll see gamblers believing on it will say that they've been lucky because they've followed a certain suggestion from feng shui like putting some vase on the north side of the house, etc.

It's not scientific but it includes things that are complicated to explain, especially for people who don't understand superstition, Fengshui, and others. Maybe it's superstition but there are still people who will believe it and use it. I only know that Fengshui is about the position of how we should arrange the layout or position that can give positive energy to be in harmony and can also give positive energy to our lives.

There's no scientific basis for it but if you're going to look at the perspective of others, they believe that there's also a relation to science. Well, that's what they're believing.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Feng shui is popular in asia and its like a supertitious belief that they say might work if you are a believer and following what is needed to be done e.g in your house, business etc. However there's no concrete basis that its really working for everyone even you follow, its just like you'll be lucky or you can push away the bad luck.

In my case I dont have this kind of practice when I play, whatever the result if I gamble so be it.

From your statement it can be seen that only a few countries are still using this model game because many have switched to digital-based gambling and can provide entertainment that is quite enjoyable, the tradition from China is indeed very unique which finally makes some people believe in the existence of Feng Shui. and I'm pretty sure there's a variety of traditional gambling in every country that's still being played.

First of all, let's find out what Feng Shui means? and Why it should be followed according to
the beliefs and traditions of the Chinese people, because if you don't follow it, something bad will definitely happen to you.

What is Feng Shui?

Quote

Feng shui literally translates to wind (“feng”) and water (“shui”). In Chinese culture, both wind and water are associated with energy. The power of these elements can be harnessed to our benefit, or work as a force against us.
