Pick the luck based casino games when you are begin with, it maybe harder to make money from these games but this will make you aware that it is not easier to win money from gambling so they will always try to save themselves from getting addicted to it.

Good advice. I can say that (although this is paradoxical) one of the best luck for a beginner is a loss. Losing and unpleasant emotions associated with this give an understanding that there is no easy money here. If a novice player wins, then he might think that this is normal. And then when at a distance he will suffer losses he will not stop but will continue to play expecting his luck.

It also have have different approach if the newbie when the game since the outcome will different for that matters, I've seen so many newbies got addicted when they win their first bet so this discussion really depends on what type of person the gambler is. If they have self control then theirs no problem even if they are skill based or chance based games.

I think it's just a matter of chance, luck and perseverance. I think every game within the internet is somehow controlled and skills cannot be solely applied.
You just have to choose if you will go for it or not. Then luck takes over.

You are right gambling is all about a matter of chance, luck and perseverance but I think these all thing is working on that time when a gambler is new in gambling, and so I have seen many expert gamblers who are playing gambling on the bases of skills and as well as luck because when a gambler has good skills and good luck then he will never face the huge amount of loss, so that is why in gambling skills and luck both are compulsory.

I do choose to play on both of these since I spend more time playing roulette which can be considered as a chance-based and play sometimes on a poker table. Gambling is still depend on your luck even if you make a plan for that, so just enjoy playing it and don’t expect too much that you’ll win everyday because its too impossible to happen.

Both roulette and poker are luck based. Did you made more money through Poker (as you think it is skill based) as compare to roulette ?

Almost 90% of the gambling games are luck based.

Well, I prefer chance based games as I do not want to use my brains for playing online. You are never sure whether you are playing with an actual human or a bot. Also chance based games are more luck based games therefore the uncertainty factor creates more excitement.

That's what I was saying. People sometimes see that chance-based games are easier to win but It is not true unless you are super smart or super skilled.* If you carry these features, you don't even have to bet, just work and make money.

Gambling should be brain-dead luck only.

*Even if you are super smart or super skilled, if your opponents are as smart/skilled as you, you can still lose. These only work against dumb/unskilled people.

If I would put it in mind, I might enjoy gambling and I would not lose big money but I would not be challenge.
The reason why I am gambling regularly is because I am challenge and as challenge I would like to improve myself and hoping to be successful someday.

I believe that there's a reason why skilled based game and luck based game are divided because they give different chances to gamblers.

It would mean all casinos online are just stealing from us and not provably fair in the crypto space, that's disappointing to hear while I admire casinos where I won some bits. I would only appear like my skill is worthless. there is no reason for gamblers to play anymore since the games on the internet are all controlled. Grin

lets get out of here.

But all you need to have the skill in order for you to have a good chance of winning, what else can you apply in gambling? Luck? I think luck is like a thief, it will just come unexpectedly and just consider it as a bonus or something that would increase your chance but don't rely on it.

I'm not really that good in card games but I find excitement in chance games like dice and minesweeper and roulette I always like to try my luck
sometimes I win sometimes I lose but on both occasions, I am very excited to play the game, there's an adrenaline rush involved.

Keep that adrenaline rush controllable. Knowing that inside gambling activities chances of getting addicted is really high, play and enjoy then quit once you are satisfied for the day, don't allow yourself being attached that much since it can bring you to high addiction and damage your financial savings.
Both sides of games are enjoyable to people who understand how gambling works.

Even if you think that the blackjack only requires skill trust me sooner or later you are going to realize that the company makes sure that no one , literally no one wins more than they have spent.
I do think even if it is a skill based gambling , it still is somehow monitored plus there are set of computer programs specifically designed to make sure no one person wins a lot.
The chances are always good in the skill based section , the lucky based one is something that I don't think one should become addicted to, but some of the games are Preety addictive in that section I must say . It is always changing and have so many variety , the skill based is fixed to 1-2 kinds .
I personally prefer the luck based ones..

Skill-based games aren't poker, blackjack and similar ones. Skill-based games are Chess and Poo/Billiard (only these two came to my mind right now). Poker and blackjack are based on luck, but at the same time, it depends on what kind of conditions do we have to play. You know live online casinos use 8 decks of cards while this number is much lower in a real-life casino.
Can say nearly the same on Poker. Poker is a mixture of skills and luck. Without good cards, you can't win against your opponent but at the same time you can win with bad cards over good cards if you bluff, it's a skill too but real-life poker makes this skill much more usable than virtual poker cause on this last one you can't understand emotions of players as well as you are able in real life poker.

Most people choose chance based games and the statistics confirm it.
70 or 80% of casino profit are slots that are the purest and most newbie friendly form of chance games.

I'd choose a skill based game because when I gamble I like to focus on it but I know that many people gamble while doing something else like watching TV or even working.

With much love for poker, I always be a skill bases gambler. Poker has been part of me and doing this with friends make me doing what is fine and pleasing to me, poker is a game of learning before play, hence, such gambler stand the chance to loose his or her games. As for me, am not the type that usually find luck or chance while gambling, thus was why I choose to get poker as my favorite among all games.

Whatever type of gambling I think there is still an element of luck in it. But gambling that is played with skills will have a different feeling compared to gambling that only relies on luck. Regardless of which is good, it depends on the habits of the players and I prefer to bet without skills such as dice, yes even though its a bit boring but I enjoy it.

Gamblers have their own preferences when it comes to playing. But those skill-based games will indeed give you advantage when you talk about winning. If you have the skills and knowledge for those specific games, you have high chance of winning, whereas chance-based are pure luck in play. So if you want a lil bit of security, you can focus on skill-based games and nurture your skill thru experience if you want a real advantage when it comes to winning.

Single-deck games give an advantage only if they are not mixed in time. For blackjack, 30% of the deck used is a signal to shuffle. Obviously, if you use one deck, shuffling will be too frequent. Maybe that's why casinos switched to multi-deck.

Insteresting, how do you know that? Did you experiment it and made your calculations yourself? Or you have read it somewhere else? If it's the later do you still have the source perchance?

This is well-known information, I studied it both from the point of view of mathematics and from sources like Wikipedia. In any open source, you can read the history of the "casino - player" confrontation in blackjack and understand why and how the rules changed (including the rules for the number of decks and their shuffling).

It is indeed a matter of preference or interest of a certain gambler because not all do enjoy to play sportsbet or card games and just rather stick with dice and roulette
because they can able to get the entertainment that they do seek of, therefore it do really talks with interest but on general sense when it comes to chances or risk then theres no doubt that skill based ones would really have that edge.

Quote from: ?? on ??

I personally think, when it comes to gambling all games are chances based because even the so called professionals also lose, assuming they had everything figured out due to their skills they won't even be gambling because they would had made so much money already. Experience is another factor that contribute to the outcome of game as it's very important to avoid making previous mistakes

Losing is inevitable even the pros but somewhat they do able to lessen it out and be still profitable in the end of the day.
