Topic: How was your first experience with gambling? - page 9. (Read 3062 times)

I'm not very good at math, so I never calculated the probability. And when playing dice, I also don't see how much chance I can win and lose. I tend to play and push the button seeing if I win or lose and keep playing it until I've had enough of craps.

So the dice game was fun for me to play gambling at first because at that time, I didn't really think about other gambling games. Moreover, at that time, the gambling games in casinos tended to be classic gambling games such as dice, plinko, roulette, and crash. There may already be modern slot games like we see in many crypto casinos today. But I never thought to play it.

What you are bringing up here is basic statistics and I think that many people lack fundamental understanding of how even the easy statistics work. Everyone of us probably knows someone who thinks that when there was black 10 times in a row in roulette that now red has to occur very very soon. It's because they don't understand that those events are independent from each other. They check how often black was there, see that it was 10 times in a row and therefore put a bet on red because it hasn't shown up for so long... Very common mistake.

True, it's all about probability.

So, the expected result after throwing a dice six times is to see the number 1 only once. That is going to be the most common occurrence if you repeat the experiment multiple times.

Now, sometimes, you might see all six times a number 1, but that's the least common occurrence, with a probability of 1/6 ^ 6 = 2.143347050754458e-05, basically 0.000002 chances, extremely low.

And everything in between. The actual number you see will be always random, but you have some probabilities that you can use to know what to expect.

Dice games is all about guess work which means it depends on how lucky the person playing is, there's no strategy to use when playing dice game, you just have to wish you're lucky to win. Since you have been playing and winning good amount it means you're just been lucky.

All luck based games don't need strategizing as it doesn't work that way. If you repeat same things that you did the previous day and won while playing, it still doesn't mean that it'll work again. Luck based games that has to do with guessing is the hardest types of bets.

My record with dice games are okay but I don't play then always instead I'll prefer to try my luck at games that I know fully well that based on the knowledge I have on these games I can use it to work and win and that's why I prefer sport betting because I have good advantage.

And doing analysis is the key to winning the match, even though it will depend on how each team performs when they start competing. Sometimes, the two teams that we analyze show results that the opposing team has no advantage and we choose our team but it turns out that after they play, our team is pressured until they can't move and the opposing team looks superior to everything. This causes our team to ultimately lose against the opposing team even though our team is superior on paper. This happened to me in sports betting a few days ago and it made me lose even if it wasn't much. But still, it intrigued me and I will look at the notes from each team for more information.

Usually, in the first game, those of us who don't have much experience will choose luck-based games because we don't want to play gambling games that are too complicated. Many of us find that slot or dice games are simple gambling games. They don't require much to start playing and we can bet with small bets. But after we know more about gambling games, especially skill-based gambling games such as cards or sports betting, we might be more interested in choosing one because we feel knowledgeable about the game and want to prove whether we can win or lose. And that's where our game will develop and maybe we will prefer skill-based gambling games.

Beginners will not learn anything about casinos because they come to the casino just to play and are curious to see that their friends can win from gambling games. They want to see how good their luck is so they think they want to try playing at a casino without looking at what they should learn or have before gambling at a casino.

It's all about probability so we might see the number 1 but it won't be very often especially if our luck isn't there. We have to be able to see the situation because if the situation is not or is less favorable, we should stop immediately. After all, if not, we might lose continuously.

But that will depend on how much your curiosity is because if you are still curious, you will keep playing until you can get a win. But unfortunately, it will still depend on your luck at that time.

Dice game works system wise by following an algorithm. So it's very difficult to predict it's like a lottery depending entirely on luck. It is true that many people have a good record of winning from Dice and also many losses from it. Not everyone can win something good from Dice. One who has good luck can gain a lot from gambling regardless of the type of game.  But one who has no luck cannot win from any game that is the religion of gambling

That's just because you were lucky.

But on average, people who gamble at a dice game will have less chances than the casino to win.

That's basically what makes the casinos profitable. They always have an edge.

And even if temporarily someone wins, they will keep playing, and therefore end up losing it all in the end.

Gambling, at its core, is about decisions and risks, right? Decisions on how much to stake, when to walk away, when to push the envelope. Some, you've noted, have an iron grip on these decisions. But grip slips. Why? Because, well, brain chemistry. Those endorphins, that rush, its all too tantalizing. Even the wisest of gamblers, those with PhDs in self-control, cant always predict their brain's next craving.

Yet, here's an offbeat idea: What if we fused gambling with education? No, really. Imagine casinos with compulsory “wise gambling” seminars. A slot machine that quizzes you on self-control tactics before you can play. Crazy? Maybe. But intertwining knowledge and excitement might just change the game. Literally. Keep a sharp mind, always assess risks, and remember - vulnerability isnt always a vice. Sometimes, its just human.

Well, that says that not every gambler is an addict because there are some gamblers who are well aware of what they are doing and will not do anything that might be a trouble to them when the consequences comes knocking at their doorstep. But we literally cannot say as well that even if they have the full control of their minds, they are already not in the risks of getting addicted because in every activity they have, there will be always a chance for them to be addicted because after all, they are just human beings like us who are vulnerable of anything.

      -    It only becomes addictive if the gambler wins at the casino where he or she is betting. And it is up to him whether he will permit the addiction to ingratiate itself into his gambling psyche. However, that can happen if he gambles and, despite experiencing success, he does not allow it to drive him toward addiction.

And if he accomplishes that, it may be argued that he is a responsible gambler, which can also be considered, in my opinion, because he has control over his gambling and doesn't allow it to lead to negative outcomes.

Dice games often involve good guesswork and guesswork.  But again it often works against assumptions. I can predict many things from Dice and I have many records of profiting from Dice.  Apart from crypto I have played Dice for a long time on a site called pmdice and have been able to withdraw good amounts of money most of the time. But again if Dice is played together for a long time then nothing works well in the head resulting in big losses

Yes, you can always predict with a certain accuracy what the future will be.

For example if you roll a dice six times, you will probably see a number 1 at some point. If you roll it six more times, you will have double the chances of seeing a one, and so on.

You can of course never see a 1, but it is increasingly improbable.

It is that the analyzes are quite encouraging if the proper attention is paid to them, of course we could think that a good analysis before making any game, even in a sports bet is the best thing that can be done, I believe that when making sports bets What must be taken into consideration is the level of wisdom that one has, because practically when we do other things than analyze and not leave everything to chance, I think that we will do well, that is the secret, in fact I dare to think that for Making a sports bet has less analysis work than doing trading, because what can happen sometimes is left to chance in the hands of volatility, but in this case things can improve little by little.

The people who pay attention to everything or what the theory of games, in casinos, slot machines, roulette wheels, have any game, until the ms is not dependent on a strategy like slot machines, well, it is good, whatever is To learn more it is good because it will prepare us for the trick that we should do, for example in my first experience if I had enough information on how to bet on craps, keep in mind that it was the martingale, because I bet without knowing what I applied it except by pure instinct, I did not know that what I was doing was the martingale, and it is a martingale as it is called, so when we put these kinds of things in evidence, we know that we could have avoided losses if we had known more things, including those There has been a lot of talk about how to be able to be better with betting in a casino and have control over the balance of expenses.

The most important thing that one should learn when dealing with a casino for the first time is to be told that one should think about what one is going to lose, but not about what one will win, because it is a total mistake to think about how much one is going to lose. win, the idea is to see when you are willing to lose.

With that analysis, we can determine what we will do and will know the respective risks if we want to place a bet. We can also find out how big our chances of winning from these bets, even though that doesn't guarantee we can get big wins. At least we can know our opportunities to determine how many bets we can place.

Well, that's the past that we've passed and can be a good lesson for us, especially to avoid the same mistakes in the future. We can also be more careful in betting because we cannot win from the casino forever and there must be awareness when we gamble and when to stop gambling. We also have to avoid losing a lot of money from gambling so that we can use the money to gamble the next day.

I'm sure everyone who starts gambling games always sees other people get big money from gambling, even though everyone's luck is never the same and it's always different, after all I personally enjoyed my first game because I considered gambling as just entertainment, but what I feel that I will be very disappointed when I lose, just like other people.

But I understand that in gambling there will always be a risk, namely losing money, so maybe people who don't understand that will definitely chase losses in the next game and try to beat the dealer, but they will never win against it, I will keep playing in the next game, but I control my emotions more and keep playing wisely playing when I want and want, it doesn't have to be all the time because I have another job besides gambling. Honestly lucky for those who have their first experience then stop playing, it's good that they don't play too deep if they can't control it.

Using the time to analyze will give you hint if you will place a decent percentage of your bankroll or you can just control your bets and take a small risk with the team or player that you wanted to support, not guarantee but by doing such analysis you might pinpoint the right sets of sports where you can use your knowledge to assess which team or player/fighter has that edge against their opponents.

I like that wisdom above you, go gig or go home a YOLO type of mindset where if you win instead of quitting and enjoying chances that you will continue to push for more and try if luck will continue to back you up, only to end your session losing all your bankroll.

And how did it go?, did you end up winning or losing at your first bet?

Maybe you broke even...

I think that people who win a lot of money in the first try might get addicted quicker than people that lose in their first gamble.

There's also the social aspect, people might say that it was bad luck for now, but they could win in the future, etc.

The most of the people from the Muslim religion was strongly against the gambling.But some of my Muslim friends still join me with the gambling games.The only negative for the gambling is just an addiction due the good entertainment based one.As you said the gamblers try to recover the loss,but it leads to the big loss and addiction become a more reasonable one.When 2-3 games give the gamblers the loss,they will ready to play next ten games without any hesitation.Some gambling addict will start to sell the property to recover the loss,but the fact is sometimes they will loss the property with old loss.

At least, by analyzing that we can get clues so we can choose a team that has a better performance than the opposing team. The important thing is that we can set the number of bets that we will place so that if we lose, the loss will not be too big. And we also have to prevent big losses so that the money won't run out quickly.

The nostalgia for the early days of cryptocurrencies is really fun because we can get a lot of cryptos at low prices. If at that time, I wasn't thinking about short-term gains, maybe I would have more coins now. But it is the good old days to remember. Meanwhile, we can continue these steps to get something better in the future. Gambling with caution is wise advice to everyone including me and I'm still learning my way there.

Thinking back on my first gambling experience, I would assume that it would be sports related. As a kid making bets (not for money) over sporting events was pretty common. My buddy and I used to bet who was going to hit a home run first, Will Clark or Kevin Mitchell, when watching Giants games. At stake was usually who got to play the first video game.
