I don't really believe in superstition belief. For me it is just base on luck when it comes in gambling, most of the time when you don't have luck you lose. I don't believe in superstitious. Huh
That's true, you shouldn't even think about it and it might cost you bad luck, it's just like how you think about something so much that it didn't end up happening. There is just nothing. I believe that it's based on our actions and how we deal with it is the answer.
That's true, it is not depend on our superstitious. Gambling would always depend on luck even how skills you have it is always needs luck to win, some gambling games not needs skills and professional gamblers does not always winning.

Gambling have no link with superstitious. But i see a lot of people are superstitious usually when they start betting, because they believe on something unique and different, but behind the scene nothing is here except luck. I believe only luck, it is working and we win everything including gambling because of luck.   
True, a lot of people are very superstitous, sometimes I am also superstitous but I didn't apply that much especially in gambling because gambling is more on luck.

How it is possible that in your first sentence you say gambling and superstitions have no link and yet on the next sentence you state that when people gamble then they become superstitious, it does not make sense, evidence suggest that people when confronted with something outside of their control will try to use charms or anything that could help them in this.
Since there isn't a scientific explanation yet for events that co-relates(meaning happened more than once with almost the same setup), people take that as superstition as the best possible answer.



Correct superstition is nothing more than to try to link two events even if they are not really connected, for example you win a lot of money on blackjack when you are wearing a read shirt, next time that you go to the casino wearing that shirt you win again, now the person wearing the shirt thinks that he won because of the red shirt when in fact it was just a coincidence all of that happened on the first place.

Isn't it that we are co-related to everything around us?
According to the book I've read entitled 'meta secrets', we have the ability to influence other things.

What is the scientific explanation you need while gambling. Tongue Since i do not believe in the supernatural i do think like that,there are several things in the world that you really cannot find an answer but when it comes to gambling provably fair is the answer you have to look for rather than superstition. Cheesy

Everything in the world, and outside of it has an answer.
We just can't reach and comprehend some of them - yet, but we will, either during or after our lifetime.
But I agree with the provably fair over superstition thing you said  Cheesy

Yeah, but people really just want to explain something in terms of superstitions. This is totally not connected if you ask me. Since all of them are just coincidence and doesn't not work 100% of the time. Like for example, people say that a four leaf clover will make you lucky in gambling, but that doesn't really work.

I do agree aside from that probability calculation is another explanation in gambling.  This deals with the chance of the number appearing which somehow show your percentage of winning the game.  Like for example in a high low ,dice with no house edge, we have a 50% chance of having the right guess on what  will appear.  Though this depends and may change on the odd factor.

Yeah I dont think people started to become superstitious when they gamble. Not all really believes on it. There are just people who believes on their strategy and that makes them good as they gamble. I guess its just a normal thing to gamblers that we have something to believe even theres no basis.

Yeahhh

I don't think beliveing in your strategies gives you a better edge in gambling Cheesy
It just can't make you better, though it can make you deposit and gamble more than you should xD

Well having faith in something is neither good nor bad but having too much faith and your actions are weird because of that then yes its wrong. I am someone who is purely technical and does not believe in any superstitions or anything but yeah sometimes if believing a certain thing gives you pleasure I would always approve that.

But I have seen guys giving away money to " Pundit's " is something I am not a fan of and personally hate such things. If someone can make you win, why don't they win themselves ?
Its not really bad to have those beliefs as long we dont hard anyone on trying to follow those things that we believe that can able to increase our lucky chance. Same as yours im not really believing on this kind of stuff since luck do come on random time and you wouldnt even know if it would come on your side and you will only said that you are lucky when you are already winning.Its just like that actually.

Still, what is the point really on having any sort of superstition?

It doesn't add any luck to your or any real value to your game play in gambling. That's all just fluff and nothing more. People try to explain something that is so hard to explain and they use superstitions to do it.

I was one before that I have some beliefs before gambling. As I watch some horoscope segments of tv shows I'm applying it to myself. If they'll tell about my zodiac sign that this isn't the right day for me or I'm not going to be lucky for this day then I won't visit any casino and that's making a fear to lose because they said that I'm not lucky this day.
those people who are losing money in bitcoin they have money doubt about these things, but in fact those people who won they consider  themselves that they play well. but to me i do not think that there are any superstitious like factors which are effect bitcoin .

For the belief, the gamblers are going to have, you cannot expect any link. But honestly gamblers are trying to link these two for some reasons.
Some gamblers find it useful for profit making some rest of gamblers never believe into any meaningless activities.
You cannot just call them meaningless activities only because you are among those who don't believe in superstition. I have been betting since 5 years almost and betting was what introduced me to bitcoins and I know the use of superstitions and the effect they have on one's gambling.

I have lost a lot of money then I changed some things which I cannot just write publicly and now I am a happy man. So please don't call something meaningless just because you feel that way.

Cool story bro and I respect you in your belief. But for others, superstitions have no meaning or significance and they don't believe in them. Luck still plays in winning in gambling. I for one don't believe in supernatural but I have nothing against who believed as well. So to think that you can influence the outcome or your winning ways. I guess it has a psychological effect on those who believed and it that is why they are getting a positive result out of it.

People who believe in luck are usually those that are superstitious. Luck is somethig that you can't control and believing in some superstitious ritual or charm makes these people think that their lucks can be affected by it. Doesn't work for analytical thinking but a lot of people do this
