I have always believed that gambling is a game of luck and not skills and experience. I am not good at recording my gambling activities because it's not a priority in my scale of preferences Taking a fast check of my last year's gambling activity I can speculate that I was not so lucky. Maybe luck was by my side at the rate of 35%. The surprises of this year's world cup contributed to my losses.
I have not changed my gambling plans for sometime now and I don't intend altering it this year. My monthly budget for gambling is still the same and I will be depending solely on luck because I might not have the time to analyze games because of work engagements.
I am interested in your statement, regarding that gambling is a game of luck not skill and experience. ok, let's review your statement. there are various versions of gamblers interpreting gambling itself and one of them is you who believe that gambling is pure luck. what you say is not entirely true, nor completely wrong. that in fact, luck is the final determining factor in every bet we make. however, I have a different viewpoint. I think, if it's a casino game, then almost all types of games offered are purely based on luck, although there are always methods, strategies that are applied in each betting session.
For a sportbook, I'm not sure it's just luck. because here, we involve insight, experience, as well as skills when analyzing the teams that will compete. in particular, the one you choose as a bet. because of that, it looks like the surprise at the Qatar world cup yesterday contributed to your loss. Remember, in soccer or other team sports betting, the underdog team won't always win every time. so, this is where the role of foresight, experience, skills, analysis, we are used.
by the way, if we have different points of view I hope you can understand that.
