I just wanna know if you guys are supertitious when playing or gambling?

I will admit I'm very supertitious when going to a land based casino. Grin

1. I choose the number of parking slot that I will park. Usually it should have my favorite number 111,777 etc.
2. I don't want to wait for someone if he or she is going to go with in the casino.
3. I wear the same shirt that I won big.

And a lot more..

How about you? are you sepertitious?

It's illogical but I'm still superstitious, I think it just gives me comfort and makes me less nervous because I obviously know it doesn't change anything at all, I'm a statistician after all.

Here in my country where even in the age of Facebook, Instagram and Spotify you will notice a lot of gamblers still believe in superstition like its good luck to use Birthday of your family members if you plan to play lottery. Some would even go as far as buying goodluck charms that they need to bring if they plan to go to Casino.

Don't know the superstition or not, but when I visit the arcade I never played on a slot machine after a win. I turn on another machine. My friend actually pays people which follow the machines in which you had no winnings.

It depends on individual ideology.
Some people strongly believe superstition in playing gambling, but some people don't have any believe in superstition while playing gambling. But it is very unfortunate that, living in a techno age, many of them are relying on luck or superstition.

Gambling and superstition have a firm relation between them. I have seen many gambler have their own odd way of betting like they would first go to the church in morning they they gamble and they believe this way God forgives them for all the sins and the good things will come to them.

While I truly respect that fact but I really think that no matter if you are a nice person or not your gambling wins and losses are just based on chances and maths.

What a funny issue, is superstition existing yet.?.
Who believes ?.I don't believe.
Living in modern era who believes in superstition.
I don't want to relate superstition with gambling, Because these two things are totally different from each other.

You'd be surprised how many people do. I'd say at least 10% of people on earth are more or less superstitious.
Ask your family how many of them believe in bad luck or luck in general and you'll see.

I do believe too but believing in God is nothing you can laugh off or create fun about that, I have my own feelings and some incidents which make me firmly believe in him.

I would never trust someone whom I cannot feel, anyways that is getting off topic. I have a personal case where if I gamble with my daughter I always wins, please try the same with yourself and tell me if this works for you too. Don't tell the daughter about gambling though mine is too little and sweet to understand something.

People are naive, and they always seeking for an cheap and understandable reason, instead to try to figure it out math behind whole life and universe. There is no God, Luck, even emotions are just chemicals in our brain. Neglecting facts we actually support stupidity, our insecurities are made by lack of knowledge.

I grew up in a family who believes in superstitions and I followed it as well. After reading some of the comments in this thread, I was quite surprised when I found out that there are superstitions in gambling too like wearing lucky shirt and the lucky number for parking.

I also believe in superstitions but I don not apply it in gambling. I do not think that those will have any effect in the game and also while playing. Winning in gambling mostly depends on the luck already and I do not think that any superstitions applied might be helpful in any way.

It is not about this lucky shirt or something, it is just us, we are the one who is lucky, and we are not lucky because of this item. But I can't blame you guys if there are people here believing on that, well maybe it is really working on them, that is why they are always searching for their lucky numbers, t-shirt, and other items, but believe me, this lucky item won't win against the house.

This is so funny. Luckily it feels like it is working but dunno if it really has effects. I read a book saying our minds are very powerful that sometimes it may create something unusual. I also have my own superstitions in gambling like the numbers, my thumb toughing my chest. Grin

Yes. Many people believe in superstition and not in vain. From my own experience, I can say that superstitions work and not only in gambling.

You have said that superstition works with gambling as well in other factors. What I would like to ask you is that, how often you win in gambling and next time while selecting the odds with the help of superstition post it in the forum. Let's see whether superstition continue to give winning for a long time.

The problem is they'll find a new superstition then

Ohh, it wasn't the shirt, it was the shoes!
I should of worn them today Sad

That's the problem in every superstition. Because it does not really have any sort of basis, there is little point in believing any of it. They can just create new ones every time they get lucky. Like your example, Mr. Gambler wore his new shirt and won. He thinks it is lucky then on day two he wore his lucky shirt and wore his new shoe and he lost. He now concludes the shoe was the problem. It's actually stupid logic.

Although we live in the modern world but still many people believe in superstition. But most importantly for me, as long as people do not rely on superstition when making decisions and just putting it only as an extra support, I think it is perfectly legitimate.

well though I agree with you, I don't really think there's anything wrong to consider some things lucky and take it with you when you gamble. I mean, yeah there are no proofs that would prove that these things work but as long as it makes you feel good then it has a positive effect on you and that's all that matters

I'm not a superstitious believer, and I don't believed on that things too. For me this is just an old belief which has been
inherited to our ancestors a long time ago. I just play, then if I win it's not because of the superstitious belief of course.

Many gamblers are supertitious and they think their actions lead their game result. I think it's just a coincidence, because this kind of gambler is always trying a different supertition to win and sooner or later they will win.
And when this happen they will say it was because the thing they did, because their supertition, but what they don't say is that even when they execute their supertitions they lose in game.

No I don't, it's just a feeling to get better right. Nothing related to win in gambling, even though we need luck to make profit in this environment. As you said, it may caused played at land base casino but some people admit do it at online casinos too. Depends on how superstitious influence people to feel better and win in the game, so it's reasonable for those who believe.

Wearing the same shirt or the parking in the favourite number lot might make you feel better and more confident. You don't have anythingrelated to superstition. While you gamble in the land based casinos and online casinos the luck profits you. If superstition can get you win tjen by this time every gambling website could have gone bankrupt.

So you mean that if you win gambling website will gone bankruptcy? In just one people who win a jackpot or win so much he cant beat the house of gambling site. We knew that some gambling website have a limitations of winnings and how would they put a jackpot or pot money that can take them down .If we focus in superstition yea you might be lucky and have a good confidence and its good for you if you win if not its your choice to believe and continue your superstition to bet or stop.
Gambling Casino's dont even bother how lucky we are because they have the most money of gamblers who loss and they will not offer a jackpot that will lose their bankroll.
