If you think that superstition will help you in gambling I suggest you stop immediately and don't gamble at all. These so called premonitions have made people lose millions of dollars in casinos. I have seen in person in a casino where a couple of middle age 40-50 years were saying this will be our lucky spin and they kept losing until they lose all of their money. The sum were about 17.500 dollars if I remember correctly. Superstition is only a way to lie to yourself and cannot help anyone in gambling.
Believing superstitions is good but to an extent, I mean if you just gamble all your money because some "pundits" ask you to.

You should use your own brain and intelligence to determine whether it's worth to bet on that.
I have seen a lot of pundits in my county who even have an accurancy of 90% in sports betting, but actually they themselves are not in profits overall so how they can help you ?

Exactly, I think superstition in itself is a personal tickling of ones self and taking consolations from hope of a yet to happen event to go in their favor. Gambling doesn't work this way people! You need your cool head and common sense to make accurate decisions concerning your finances not what you feel.

Superstion is not hope nor to tickle one self.  It is a belief created when something unexplanable happen when doing one thing.  It is relative of luck.  In a sense they do not exist.  Anything happen win or lose is triggered by chance or probability.  It is not luck that gives you win.  It is the chance that you have predicted the outcome correctly.

Most people in this thread are stating that they are not superstitious, but I bet some of them really are. It would be nice to see a poll on this topic, where people can vote without revealing their identities.

I've noticed that when I gamble on Saturdays I always lose so I avoid gambling on Saturdays. Is that a superstition?

Maybe most of them are just hiding it. I am superstitious also. I think i got it from my parents and other relatives when we play card games with bets.
There is this one thing I remebered what my Uncle said to me. "Never keep in your pocket the money that you are winning if the game is not yet over." He means just let it be in the table until the game ends.
It is actually hilarious but I keep doing it until now.  Grin

Superstition also is based pn the hypothesi.  In short you are just on a prediction matter of whether your bet will win or will lost in the game.  It can hard as want you think to win in the game because it has so many scenario of whats going on.

Correct that there are many scenarios in the game and there are instances that you know you got a good hand but yet the other player still have the best one.
This kind of things that happens makes you think "Am I really unlucky this day" so you will come up with another strategy or try to be superstitious. Some do change where they sit or others have their own way of rotating things.

There is nothing wrong in having some superstition while you are playing gambling. Although on the other hand this may lead to other gambler to be disappointed when the result are not from their expectation

Actually, when we have superstition in gambling and if sometime we win behalf of our superstitions than we apply this superstition in every matter of life. So in this way, it make our life difficult. So better is that avoid these things and play gambling with like a good gambler.
how can a supertition makes your life difficult? lol it wasn't the reason.

supertition just another thing makes the game more attractive , some people believe on some ritual before play a game as it could always bring them a luck. soundslike wasting time indeed , but when it works , your happiness get doubled. nothing wrong with it i think.

I wrote it, because i have not good experience of superstitions, may be it is good for you, but for me, it is just imagination.
But i want to clear Superstitions and Analysis both are different things. When we start to play a game than we do analysis and it work, So we can't use the word of superstitions instead of analysis.  

I think you are wrong to give an opinion about it, but everyone is different with the thinking and talking. It looks like the work was very important in our daily lives to gain knowledge and experience to the community, but to play the game it was just a moment and entertain ourselves when we get bored doing the job or when we were relaxing.

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?  Smiley

No!  Superstition should not be relied upon when making decisions.  If the superstitious acts, such as wearing the same shirt, has no effect on the decision making process then the acts can be entertaining; however, such acts may precipitate a false sense of confidence which may effect the decision making process in a subconscious manner.  Unbiased thinking and logical reasoning seem to be the safest way to gamble.

You cannot be certain of superstitions to be used as your reference on gambling as your signs for winning because, in reality lucky winning is coming from your real ability to win with the gameplay. You must be experienced enough to play with your favorite betting games in order to be skilled and build a knowledge and not relying on the superstitions which you believed for a long time, that is not helpful for us.

that is kind of an obvious statement in my opinion but that never stops gamblers from going for any kind of superstitions. you see many people do many different and strange things for their "luck" to come to them. and they never have any explanation for it. and since gambling is all about luck and randomness, it sometimes work and sometimes don't so they never are sure.

and what you are saying about the skills, is only true about certain number of games and not all of them. and it is rare and hard to do so. and also in the end those games are also depending on luck.

Lol this doesn't matter when im playing it will not tell your fortune because of this not because you choose your favorite number does not mean you're going to win the game. It will based on how you played the game and how you will use strategies on this how if you don't own car? and your single in life no family? Hows that? Lmao

This is true we do apply it connected to everyday living when we do believe a particular thing specially on playing gambling if you saw it worked you will surely repeat and believe that thing all over again which you would create your own belief because you already experienced that it works for you. I can't say it's prohibited to follow but it's better not to be dependent on those beliefs at all.

I would probably focus on developing my skills than finding my luck, I'm not a superstitious guy because I live in the present world and I only believe on what I saw except believing in God even if I do not see him. What is more important is the statistics and the trend and all the information you can read as that is your only basis and your key to be successful in gambling.

Me and my family do believe most of the time in superstitious but right now when we are getting wiser with the usual ways. And with gambling, I still manage to believe with it just like with lucky numbers, on what day is the best day to gamble. What do I need to wear to be lucky, just like Chinese believes for wearing polka dots.
If you think your clothes are bringing you luck than i suppose you are wearing the same lucky clothes every time you gamble and you are winning all the time, right?  Shocked
And how many times did lose when you had your "lucky clothes" on?

I don't want to mention on how many times did I lose with my so called lucky clothes because I can't even count them all. I don't know why I keep on believing with this thing though it's proven that it doesn't have something to do with winning. Well we are really influenced with our Chinese relatives about this matter.
i think these are just the supposition and there is no reality about this. most of the addicted gamble consider different activities or material as good or bad for their gambling result but i do not think there there is any reality.

A lot of gamblers grossly misunderstand the concept of probability and its relation to gambling, such as the belief that if they have lost a couple of times they're more likely to win the next or vice versa.  I find that some even believe the opposite, that they can have a "lucky streak" and that if they keep going they can keep winning, but what they don't understand is that the house will always win in the end no matter how big their wins are so they need to pull out as soon as they start for their own good and not take their wins in the short term as evidence for the future.

l agree that superstition cannot help anyone in gambling if it is your luck it is your lucky day but if not then it is now.
Just do not risk too much of it so it will not be regret in your part if you lose big amount of it. Gambling is fun and risk. Take as much risk as you can afford to lose.



That's correct and now the price of bitcoin is getting higher and it will be much higher in future so instead of wasting bitcoins in gambling its better to save them for future as now we cannot afford to loose even a small part of bitcoins.

I believe in luck while gambling but i am not superstitious. Wearing same tshirt doesn't make any sense, you need to be lucky to win some good amount in gambling and also you have to cashout at right time after winning, if you continue you will loss all at end.
But wearing that t-shirt if gives you a special feeling of winning and ultimately a positive energy and attitude which is very good to have in gambling. While I also never believe these things but sometime they seem to work like when I gamble against one of my friend I loose always while against another I mostly win, and yes I take same choice almost everytime ( sports betting )
