Topic: How often is your luck in gambling? - page 8. (Read 1678 times)

Unfortunately, I have never been lucky enough to win a jackpot or thousands of times the amount I gambled. In addition, in cases where I generally made profits between 10 and 100 times, I achieved such winnings when my balance was close to zero and for this reason I could never earn more than a few times the balance I attributed to gambling. This applies both for a single bet and for situations where I cannot double my balance several times after several bets.

To answer the question in the quote;

Gambling isn't something from which one can have a career or earn regular income in any way. On the contrary, it is an activity that can seriously harm oneself financially and psychologically if one cannot control one's emotions and desires. For this reason, I don't think that I have or will have any kind of career in gambling in the future. This is not just something that applies to me, it is something that applies to everyone. Moreover, I don't think that many gamblers (including me) will stop gambling if they earn high amounts of winnings or multiply their money several hundred times. Gambling is a habit and even if there is no addiction many individuals feel the need to gamble at certain intervals. For this reason, if I increase my money several hundred times by gambling or earn a high amount of winnings I will of course use the money I have earned to live a more luxurious life but I will continue to gamble for fun. I don't think that someone who has gambled one or more times can quit gambling for the rest of their life even if they aren't addicted.

I saw this news few days ago about this woman who got lucky for winning lottery. The amount is indeed huge and more than enough to live comfortably even she stop working since the prize will be given monthly for 25 years.

Well, I never had a chance to win huge as i'm only using a small amount when I play. But if ever it happened to me, I will consider to quit. Anyway, gambling is not a career and should not be treated as a way to earn money.

What matters is that our expectations out of gambling are achievable, in my case I like to play poker, which requires the complete opposite of shutting down your brain and instead it requires that you think about every single movement that you make at the poker table.

But in my case that is the way I get my fun out of casinos, as games of skill in which I need to figure out what my opponent is thinking and outsmart them are the kind of games I like.

Luck will be accompanied by circumstances and I usually get it often. I mean that in gambling You have to be able to control the level of emotion in each round You play so that when the odds in Your opinion are somewhat close then do it with a more aggressive level in Your bet. I do that and often win and isn't that luck always comes My way.

However, as gamblers, Of course they always chase luck with a greater level in their bets so that they will lose the game if they do that. Consider the balance You have for further rounds so that You have the hope of getting lucky if You are able to read the situation in the game You are playing. Sometimes it's quite difficult to explain but that's how I feel.

And what is called luck, there is no definite formula or formula for getting it. and perhaps there are many gamblers who are mistaken about the definition of luck, especially when it involves gambling. For me, luck is an inseparable part of our lives. especially, when we involve it in gambling. that in fact, luck will not always come all the time and cannot be pursued, IMO. that is why, gamblers who chase luck often end up disappointed.
but don't get me wrong, that I also need luck. It's just that luck comes at the right time, accidentally and without being invited, especially in luck-based gambling games. Luck, will play an important role in every gambling session we do.

In other forms of gambling, luck can be considered part of the supporting factors. for example sports betting, and one of them is football. Before a match starts, there are steps or variables that we must take to minimize losses. The way to do this is by researching and analyzing it. the rest, then we let luck decide.
As you said, many gamblers who win the jackpot, especially the lottery, usually don't last long. However, this statement is actually relative and not completely true. because after all, it all depends on each gambler who gets the jackpot and how they manage the winning money from the lottery jackpot which is usually a fantastic value.

In all honesty, it seems like the girl had unusually good luck. She has the ability to leave or quit his work and actually start a business. Who among gamblers wouldn't be delighted if that was how the outcome of their winning jackpot panned out?

You might only seriously consider this if you were the female who received such rewards for 25 years. Do you believe that because you gambled, God wanted to make you wealthy as well? or just because you decided to gamble with the hope of winning the jackpot, which is what actually happened?

I have made good profits most times but it is majorly based in signal and my mood to bet on that very day. My loses comes when I don't listen to my instincts and try to bet in my own way which mostly brings me loses. Gambling is more of luck than our efforts although there are some games that depends majorly on our tactics on how to play the particular game we love to play. If we have interest in a particular game, it is important for us to get a better strategy and couples with luck, we can be making some good profits even though it's not always.

Unfortunately when you are a gambler and you are having luck in sport betting like I did today for example which I won quite some parlays and got from 10.000 IDR to 800.000 meaning from less than 1 dollars to 50 dollars which I consider a good day I immediately lost it all trying to increase them in slot machines.I have said so many times that I should stop playing slot machines yet whenever I am winning something,soon after I lose them all in the slot machines,for me the real fight is against myself now to distance myself from slots as it looks I am having quite some good luck in games where luck is not 100% relevant like sport betting different from slot machines.

Not much, and I don't rely on luck either to win my games. In fact I don't even rely on anything lol I just play and get happy when I win, I get sad when I lose but I don't let it get to my head. Basically the stupider you play your game the less mental anguish it's going to give you, and I found that literally shutting your brain off and just playing is what does the trick for many. Props to her for winning but I won't stick around and lose millions of dollars over my lifetime just for that one lucky strike. I'd rather just hustle and work hard, and gamble for fun and entertainment than actually invest the time and effort into making my gambling habit into a full-on career, which 90% of the time does not work and only leads to further gambling addiction by the way.

I had decent luck over the years and made some money here and there. Especially in some poker games I hit a few very low expectations hands which helped me go build my bankroll over time. Unfortunately I never managed to win any big jackpot, so in terms of profitability I wasn't so lucky. Reminding myself of the rare chances to win jackpots, I can't rely feel bad. We never know when it's going to happen and if we are not playing our chance is already 0%. What I do know is that even if I would win a big jackpot tonight, I wouldn't stop gambling. I don't really see a reason to stop, because it's entertainment and I have been doing it for many years. Overall I don't think I would change my lifestyle much after a big win, I would be eating the same food, wear the same clothes and keep gambling. The only thing I would try to focus on is to keep gambling in smaller amounts like I am doing now. Just because I have more money doesn't mean that I have to gamble with higher stakes.

You are absolutely right, it's already been established that gambling is not a dependable source of income, in fact, gambling is not a source of income at all, so gamblers are always advised to gamble for fun and not expect anything in return, so they don't feel entitled to anything and probably feel very bad after losing money they were expecting to make some good profit from.

But the truth actually is that, gambling can indeed change a person's live, if only the gambler will know how to judiciously manage and use the money, they win from gambling very well, but the problems is that most gambler after winning some really good money, always believe that there is more where that which they won came from, and they end up putting everything back to gambling and probably end up losing it all.
Nothing forbids gamblers from investing won money in a business, assets like bitcoin and the likes, or even invest in real estate and so on.

The luck in gambling is obviously not for the gamblers to experience and enjoy but it’s mostly the house who gets often the luck and own all the winning profits. As gamblers are for losses, while the house is for profits. That is actually the reality in gambling. However, with this news shared by OP, the lady must be extra lucky I think because she won the jackpot prize that will definitely change her whole life. But most probably, she must have incurred big amount of losses on her first gambling activities but never dare to quit but instead fuel her urge in gambling. But not all who have lost a lot will definitely share the same luck in the end.

I may not have been too lucky in gambling but I also make some small wins at some point, but still it never came to outnumber my previous losses in gambling. But if given the chance to win a life changing amount, maybe I can’t say that I will never gamble again. Of course, I will never stop gambling but I won’t see myself betting more that day where I was able to make a big win.

It won't be as easy as they imagine. Perhaps they will spend more than $100 to win a lot of money, but it is also possible that their chances of losing will be greater than $100 because this is a gamble where we don't know when we will win. If they cannot manage their winnings well, they will return to being poor because they will only waste their money on things that are not important in their lives. But for those who can manage it, they will get changes in their lives so that their lives will be better than before. They will also improve their standard of living and have a source of income that can meet their daily needs.

I bet this is her winning year and that prize is destined for her and to answer your question, Yes, those winners exist in real life. However, in our country it's quite difficult to determine if there's a real winner or its just a fake announcement since there's an allegations that our sweepstake official is deceiving the citizens and making it look that someone won the grand prizes when there really wasn't.

There was the time that i installed casino app and tried to play but i lose, seems like the favor is not mine. Well, i enjoy playing bet games as long as i can manage my time and alloted funds for gambling.

That woman who won was really fortunate. Is it correct that she will receive such a sum within the next 25 years? That is a dream come true for him, and he is already wealthy after only a few years. Perhaps he was predestined to win there. Do such people exist in real life?

I rarely win at gambling since I frequently lose. Also, I rarely gamble when I'm on vacation or just want to have some fun at the casino. But that girl is extremely fortunate; I was honestly got envious. I wish all gamblers could be like her.

As so people are chasing their luck in gambling because they think they become rich by just spending $100. Winning millions is a life-changing indeed but I heard a lot of people who won the jackpot prize but too unfortunate that it never stayed long in their hands and they got back to poor again because of money mismanagement. That is why we don't have to think of not working anymore and living in luxurious life after winning but rather plan for investment in order to keep money flowing in, not just flowing out without any return as in the end, it all dried up and become empty again.

Yes, I often see people who gamble because they hope for a chance to win right away, and I wonder if they will continue like that, and will they soon realize that one day what they hope for will not work? The answer is that only some people and most people who are addicted will have difficulty changing it.
And what you said is true, I could have been fooled by that, if I don't pay close attention, then it will be very dangerous for me in the future.

Not many are lucky in gambling and only a few of the many gamblers experience defeat. This is not a matter of luck in gambling as you say, sometimes defeat always dominates the statistics of the gambling we play, even though winning a big jackpot may be just a little more. from the losses experienced by many gamblers because here we only talk about luck and winning does not include bad luck in gambling.

It is true that don't put any hope when gambling, let alone winning, because that mindset should be changed, because getting consistent wins is difficult, let alone hoping for luck from gambling, which may be very impossible to get because luck is only a test for gamblers on how they control their greedy behavior within themselves. they.

I've got a lot of friends who are always lucky in their gambling activities but I'm not as lucky as they're when it comes to gambling and I don't really know why if you ask me. It's as a result of my ill luck in gambling that made me not to gamble regularly like most people around me instead, I chose to gamble once in a very long time since my chances of winning are slim. My ill luck in gambling have also helped me in not being too regular in gambling as frequently placing bets have somehow made a lot of people to become gamble addicts and I'm absolutely okay with my decision to gamble once in a blue moon.
