Topic: Is gambling all about luck? (Read 4861 times)

Uncertainty is something that is beyond human comprehension but lies under mathematical or statistical calculations to decide it’s outcome And gambling is not an exception To It .even the mathematical or statistical equation does not give accurate results because the next hour is quite Unknown To every individual and that’s why the weather forecasters are not always accurate on their predictions.

Replying To your question ‘If gambling is all about luck’. The question is quite rhetorical because even God said that he will bless whom ever he choose to bless. However ,from My own perspective gambling is based on faith, hope and believe.if nature decides to smile on you based on your faith you can be very lucky to win a game and not by mathematical or statistical predictions.

Gambling is not all about luck, rather there's still presence of roughly enough work to be done because it's how the system operates. Luck is from the beginners because they have no solid idea of gambling system but they're the ones that are lucky enough to hits the lotto in the system. It's been a whole roughly months I've spent in gambling and I've learned to understand how tactical and tricky the system can be, we should try our best.

Well, that's not so. Or put another way it is not exactly like that. There are so many casinos that advertise on the forum, most of them being very profitable precisely because in gambling they have a certainty. What happens is that the certainty is in the big numbers. The casino owner does not know what is going to happen on a $1 bet of yours that has a 2% HE. What he does know is that after 1 million bets like that he will have won $20,000.

Uncertainty will always be part of gambling as that is how it is supposed to be, so even if there was a gambler with great skills, they have no way to predict with absolute certainty what it may happen next, which is why all of the newbies which are waiting for something like that to exist will be very disappointed this is the case, and on the worst case scenario they may be scammed by unscrupulous persons that sell them that lie in exchange of a few dollars.

Agree with this mate as you are right that anyone can even predict all the outcome of our bets. Cause we can  not say that every our bet we will win. In reality gambling is base on luck not even the genius people  will win 100x+ consecutive bet. Even though there's a chance every time we analyze our bet and win but not totally all the time cause there's a chance that still we have our badluck and we are always loss. But if we have our luck on our side then we will win a good amount of money.

Do you think prediction doesn't rely on the luck? No matter how good your knowledge  and how much your experience, the result of the match may not be in your favor due to bad luck. You can't avoid the luck factor in sports betting. Even if some gambling games require skills and proper knowledge, we cannot separate the luck factor. Gambling can't be a good place for earning money regularly because it basically relies on the luck. If we have a certain way to increase the chance to win in gambling, we mustn't judge gambling as a luck-based thing anymore.

Reasons why it is said that gambling is about luck is because many times, gambling results are based on unpredictability and the system is designed in a way that it favors the house and with that house edge in place, I only take luck and high probability for anyone to win over the house, so when we use such terms as gambling is based on luck what we mean in reality is the limited chances that the gamblers is presented with and how bad it is to take gambling for ways of making money from the winnings.

Gamble just for the fun, and never expect anything significant from gambling take it for fun and your luck alone can't take you to an advantagues position.

The main part of gambling especially casinos depends on luck yet those who are skilled in casinos may avoid losses and be able to make money from gambling. And on sportsbook it depends rarely on luck for maximum case it helps those who know the game. Doing proper research before betting may help to win.

Although gambling is not 100% luck based, it is mostly based on luck because one can guarantee his prediction or winning here?  Someone may have gathered a lot of experience due to gambling for a long time, due to which their predictions are relatively more useful than new gamblers, but not 100% useful.  So everyone must accept that gambling depends on luck. There is no way to disbelieve it. But yes skill can sometimes increase one's winning amount a bit

You are right about that, because if gambling or betting is only based on luck, then no one is willing to spend their time just to understand and master strategies and tactics in gambling or when placing bets. Because if it is only based on luck, then all efforts to learn and understand strategies and tactics in gambling and placing bets will only be in vain. However, it is quite important for us to be able to know and differentiate between the types of gambling that we participate in, because not all types of gambling are based on skill and not all types of gambling are based on luck alone. We need to know this, because it is feared that if we don't understand it properly, we could bet using certain strategies and tactics even though this type of gambling is based on luck, or vice versa. which of course will only waste the time we have in vain.

And we need to remember that luck is not present every time we gamble or when placing a bet. Luck is something that cannot be guaranteed when it will come. And one more thing, we need to remember that there is no such thing as a guarantee of winning, regardless of the luck and skills we have.

Some people or let’s say gamblers to be more specific, they only find happiness and pleasure in gambling, I would say that these kind of people who think themselves are lucky enough to win the jackpot one day so they keep always playing like addicts.
Most of gambling games especially online are based on luck only, with a small or bigger chance for the casino and house edge to win, which makes it hard for most gamblers to beat the house or at least make a small gain.
However there are some factors like strategy and skill that can also influence the outcomes in certain games, I say certain games only like poker, sport betting or some table games.

In conclusion, I would say not 100% of gambling games are based in luck.

A great deal of gambling activities require a certain level of luck. Now this percentage of luck needed to win is determined by the kind of game or activity in question as some activities require a great deal of it especially In cases where the odd are very much against you , while some others require very little or almost none. As a gambler you are not expected to place your odds of winning totally on luck. Instead you are expected to make the odd fall more in your favor and you can do this by making careful analysis and possibly calculation that would help increase your odds of winning.
In some cases, experience is also required to help soothing the odds to your favor even more. However the more you play over time you get to understand things better and hence improve your level of experience.

Yes skills are indeed a pretty important part that gamblers are advised to have especially for those involved in the type of sports betting, honestly I don't really emphasize anyone to have very good skills but at least they should have skills even if only a little because it will be able to help them in terms of making decisions in each bet, and also yes on the other hand as you said and I agree with it that no matter how good the skills and experience you have it still ultimately refers to how lucky you are in running the session.

Well that's a good analogy that if indeed gambling depends on skill then obviously some professional gamblers will always be able to win in every betting session which allows them to become rich people but the reality is not like that because after all gambling is always a risky activity which means you can never avoid the possibility of losing completely, so what is more advisable is to have skills especially if you are one of the gamblers involved in sports betting, it's like combining skill and luck.

Real talk: gambling isnt about luck. Running a business requires skills, planning, and luck. Trusting luck alone? Just for losers. Our skill and opportunity make us winners. Poker? A cerebral game, I swear. You're playing the player, not cards. And the WSOP? Champs arent there by chance. These guys have strategy, skill, and luck. Like the taxman, the house always wins - its inevitable. Bets, slots, roulette? Same thing. Know your odds, play intelligently, and enjoy the chase. Its not equal, dont be fooled. Games of skill have a chance; games of chance? So throw your money in one of my casinos and enjoy the trip. Key? Always stay confident, play the odds, and know the game. Winners focus on winning - we do too.

Sometimes they do have their own strategy and are sure they can get a win with the strategy they use, but unfortunately victory certainly cannot be obtained that easily. Even if they spend money to pay for a strategy that is said to be able to get a win but it would be ridiculous if someone sold the strategy, because I myself of course if I have a strategy that can definitely get a win I will not share it even if someone pays it. So I think it's ridiculous if there are people who sell strategies and if someone buys it maybe he is one of the stupid people.

The profits in gambling in my opinion cannot be obtained consistently, even if we have a solid strategy but I am sure we cannot get consistent profits. If the profit can be obtained consistently then this can be said to be a job that can generate income or profit with certainty, but unfortunately it is not like that.

While some people believe that all you need to win in gambling is luck, this is not the case. Players definitely need the luck to win gambling games, but this is not all that you need. Yes, as a gambler, you will also need skills. Although, while we can see that skills are also very important, skill alone will not make a winner. In fact, skill combined with luck and psychology and a good and reliable casino will make you are a successful gambler. Gambling always involves a certain amount of luck, but certain types of games also require a great deal of skill. But, as we shall see, even in games that rely entirely on luck, such as roulette, skill can be an asset for players to understand their chances. With most of us staying at home during these difficult times, American, European and British casinos are seeing their visitor numbers increase. What better time to find out where luck can help you make quick money and where your odds are relatively small.
  Poker is clearly an example of a game that requires a lot of skill. The World Series of Poker is not won by a random player, but by a fairly skilled individual. However, poker can also involve a bit of luck. Poker is a long-term game in which players consider their cards and hand and think mathematically about the probability of success in the game. But in the end, if you keep getting the wrong cards (and it happens), you are sure to lose, regardless of your skill. Sports betting requires some skill to keep an eye on teams and players, but there is also a bit of luck involved, as matches can involve a fair degree of uncertainty. Casino slots and lotteries do not involve skill, and some might say the odds are always against you. The most important thing to remember is that the casino always has the advantage. Roulette is a game based entirely on luck, but as you will see, there is also skill involved. First, understand why the casino has the advantage.

There's no such thing on this world that could really be able to influence your luck rate or factor on which this is something that people had been trying out to make or do until this very moment and pretty
sure that there are those individuals who would really be trying out their very best to make themselves that winning up the game. We should really be putting up into your minds that winning up on gambling
does really need up that luck factor and if you are someone who doesnt really care about those things will really be leading up into such huge problem on the time that you would really be able to make yourself
losing up even more.

On the time that you would really be finding up yourself on being that desperate then this is the time that you would really be finding up yourself on testing out on different strategies because you've been believing
that you could really be able to increase out that kind of luck that you are believing that it could really be something significant that could really happen out. Gambling is for fun and not something
that you could really be able to make it as a source of income because once you do find yourself trying out to chase with those kind of approach then losing is really that next in line.

You are very correct because we have various ways of gambling both offline games, board games, online games, casinos and all that even physical gambling that involves two people betting against each other like playing table tennis or board games like snookers, these type of games actually requires skills and not luck so if you are not skillful you can't win at all especially when your opponent is more skillful than you. Sometimes emotions are involved in physical gambling like when you know the person that you have lost your money to while gambling but yet gambling of any kind shouldn't be attached with emotions.

I think these skills are the technical part that gamblers must master. but whatever the general form of gambling game, the outcome I am sure will depend on the player's luck.
if gambling games were designed for skill alone, there would probably be gamblers who cracked strategy and would be unbeatable. every gambler must still have skills and knowledge, otherwise he is just playing to throw away money.

This is very true, things can happen this way, and many people currently seek to play poker because they trust a lot in their strategies and their experience, even so, you can know a lot, but if luck is not with you, a good game It will not bear fruit, of course other types of Strategies come into play, such as betting large amounts of money to make other players afraid and show that they have a great hand, and that can work, of course, it is a Reckless strategy but it can be applied , because you can lose a lot of money, and there are also players who have a lot of money and don't mind losing, sometimes the game of poker can be very open to this, so sometimes without having a good hand it can generate big wins.

These types of strategies Exist and can generate many profits but also significant losses, but poker is open to all these possibilities.

That part is where you go deeper into poker, it is because the poker player can run out of strategies, but with some cunning and intelligence you can recover a lot, and if you apply these types of strategies well you can make some money when everything was lost.

I have seen on the forum that there are many poker fans, maybe they already have their own strategies already perfected and they just needed a lot of experience to be able to master them, which means that luck or the luck factor Decreases.
