In my opinion making cash from gambling is not a good option and the statistical probability that you will win every game at every casino is very low. I think winning or losing every game is completely in your head, so your individual tricks are not there. However, we all have some kind of luck so we should strive for what is possible for us.

Gambling is all about Tactics, fun and learning  to bring out results out of nothing,as you play you hope to win that's where the luck comes.
The thing is one's you know the rules of the game and you place your mind well you will sure hit your target.

Some may think I can play it well and all of that but its far from it.

The kind of money that some people lose from gambling if they put them to better use, invested in other ventures, or used for other purposes, it could help them succeed in life. Many people start playing poker because they think s they can win big money every day and become wealthy. Furthermore, people have a misconception about the life of a gambler, honesty the level of danger associated with gambling how Never encourage someone to gamble, instead, tell them to invest any amount of money they can afford to lose as gambling is purely a game of chance with no guarantee of success.

Working hard is different from luck, because you can be working entirely on games and odds while luck just deals with no stress and one will watch you grabbing enormous winnings without actually working hard for it. Luck plays a vital role in gambling because most of these newbies have lucky stars that shined for them and these gamblers are able to boost because they're earning quite good in the system. I've experienced and I'm not stopping to levelled myself for poor results but I keep forwarding myself for excellence and I'll never be comfortable if we're not able to meet up thr require targets to generate quite important funds.

I think people make too big a deal about luck sometimes.  Sure you gotta have some luck to come out on top, but you also gotta have skills to be a good gambler.  I'm talking about knowin the odds inside out, getting how the games really work, and being able to make the right calls when the heat is on.
Neither luck nor skill can be ignored in gambling. In gambling luck works a little more for those who are experienced. Gambling based on luck alone will not lead to winning, and even with more analysis, winning cannot be guaranteed. There are few games where luck plays a direct role, such as slots or lottery games etc. On the other hand, there are few games where you can win by doing good data analysis or gambling with your own skill. Sports betting requires both data analysis skills and luck.

So what is their victory based on? because of tricks or patterns? can that really make them win? I don't think so, because even though they use their own skills, they are also helped by luck on their side. Many people gamble by following their greed, where when they lose they still deposit their money to gamble again with the belief that they will definitely win after losing, but that doesn't guarantee even if they use their tricks or skills, because in my opinion it's entirely luck that will determine whether they win or not.
In fact, many people gamble by following their greed and lust which makes them uncontrolled in gambling, so they can spend large amounts of money in just one game session, even if they lose it means they are unlucky, and when they win it means they are lucky. lucky, therefore I believe luck has a big role in gambling. Even though there is some gambling that requires skill to win, it cannot be separated from luck.
I think what he mean when he say 1:1 ratio is PVP gambling. And with this type of gambling, skills does matters the most. In gambling there is that term underdog. They are the ones who usually need more luck to win against a well-skilled player. If I think I'm less skillful and I lose, I will not try again. I will train harder first. While in the meantime we can still try and try more in a luck-based game.

Sometimes we can get lucky on our second, third and so on deposits but of course, it's always better to have a limitation since winning at them is not guaranteed. Apart from losing, I think more gamblers are going back for more if they are winning.

Going back for more when we are winning is caused by the impulses winning triggers to the brain. Gamblers who are experienced, and have significant amount of skills to win in a two man game will look out for more gamblers to compete with and win money. This helps the gambler to improve his skills, hence increasing his possibilities of often winning in the game. Aside such games gamblers solely depend on luck in games like slot. Because it requires not skills, it's a matter of understanding how the slot machine works. The necessary techniques needed to win and maintain earning. Skilled players in poker sometimes depend on luck, a newbie can win a pro in the game depending on the cards of the professional player. Gambling needs luck, the skills are secondary means of enhancing the winning process.

The strategy was the important one for the victory most of the time,The luck is not the important one.But the skill with the luck favours you lot,because the gamblers can make the jackpot if they get the luck on their skilled game.As you said many people get greedy on their game by playing and after the small win in the gambling site.But they forgot the game winning is not the permanent to anyone,the tricks can be used.But after the failure of tricks and strategies,the gamblers should follow the random bet to avoid of losing money in the gambling site.The luck was the expected by many gamblers in the gambling site.
But in luck-based gambling games, we don't depend only on strategy but also on luck because that is an absolute thing we must have if we want to win. But most gamblers can't win in luck-based gambling games like slot games because it really requires luck to win, let alone get a big multiplier. There are indeed many people who are greedy and want to win more even though they can already win from their gambling games. They forget that in gambling games, they cannot always win, so they must realize that if they have won, they must immediately stop gambling and do not need to chase any winnings. Luck is something that gamblers always look forward to because it can help them win many gambling games. Even though they lose, they don't want to stop gambling because they still want to get that win.
Even though in gambling we often hope to win, if we are not lucky in the game at that time, victory will not reach us.
The most important thing is that we know how to play and just enjoy the game. When the time comes for you to be lucky, you will win. but if the situation gets worse, maybe you should end the game and stop first.
Sometimes we are not lucky on that site, but we can be lucky on other sites. with the same game. does anyone feel that?

It is important also to know how to utilize your luck, if you already winning it's best to know when to quit and enjoy that earnings, there's no way that you can always be lucky as most of the time when losing streak start to show up you won't be able to cope up and you will continue to lose your capital.

Instead of enjoying with some decent amount to celebrate you just send back to the house and lose everything. Be wise always when playing, luck is very important when you are inside this type of venue.

Luck makes me laugh. I view luck as a seasoning in slots, where strategy is secondary to fortune. It improves the experience but doesnt guarantee success.

I've seen a strange trend in gamblers' minds. Big wins can blend pleasure and pursuit. Like a call, it draws players in. Consider gambling a leisurely stroll, not a race. Enjoy the landscape (game excitement) but dont chase the horizon (constant wins). Its about enjoying the journey, not the goal.

The invisible guest at every gambling table, right? Luck is like an unexpected friend to me, a casual gambler. Sometimes they bring gifts (wins), sometimes just company. Begin by welcoming them without expectations. Play for fun, knowing that luck is part of the game's appeal, not a guarantee of victory.

I agree with that, because in gambling, skill does have a big role, and of course if we don't have skills in this gambling and we fight players who have good skills, then most likely it won't win. and I am also not an expert in this gambling,  so I often gamble in gambling based on big luck, such as slots and poker in my opinion people who gamble like that are people who have the desire to win something with their own strategy or skills,  so that adds to the thrill of the gambling journey.

It is possible to happen but even so I don't think anyone can predict it well,  the possibility of them making the next deposit and so on will only make them get a big loss that's a big possibility because I myself am not sure that with frequent deposits, it will be easy for them to get a win.

So what is their victory based on? because of tricks or patterns? can that really make them win? I don't think so, because even though they use their own skills, they are also helped by luck on their side.

In my opinion, luck is a definite thing in gambling, because even though there are some types of gambling that require us to have skills in order to win, it cannot be separated from luck, if with slot gambling, and they get a big win or jackpot then that can be done. It is certain that luck is on their side, but if it includes all gambling, luck is not the priority, because in my opinion, there is effort and there is victory, which applies to gambling which does require skill.

and indeed all gamblers want luck to be on their side, because to win at gambling I think you have to have luck. especially with slot gambling. In my opinion, this type of gambling does not require good skills at all, everyone can do it if they already understand the steps.
Therefore, many gamblers place bets continuously, hoping for a miracle so that they can win, namely luck.

No, gambling is not just about luck, but there are other things that gamblers can feel after playing gambling. If you gamble only hoping for luck, you will be annoyed, angry when you lose or other negative things that you might feel. There are other factors that make gamblers feel like continuing to gamble even though they lose more than they win. Gambling is not a place to add to your wealth list because there are elements of luck and bad luck there.
Luck is the main factor in playing gambling to win, even though there are some bets and games that require skill, knowledge and experience, luck is still number one in terms of winning.
Of course, every gambler should not just hope for luck because in this world we can't get everything we want or it could be said that not all the hopes we have can come true and give us what we hope for.
Gambling is an activity that is full of risks, luck and misfortune so that we as gamblers can only wait to get or feel it.
If luck is expected and can always come, it is very likely that no gambler will experience defeat, but it is precisely this hope that makes gamblers feel disappointment and loss.

luck plays great role in most casino classics. but if you will venture in sportsbetting or poker or blackjack, you have good chance of getting good winnings. but you need years of practice and dedication to these games. it is not an overnight task to do and expect to be an expert overnight. passion is also required to not feel you are obliged doing such activity. if you are happy with what you are doing, you won't feel tired of doing it over and over again.

The strategy was the important one for the victory most of the time,The luck is not the important one.But the skill with the luck favours you lot,because the gamblers can make the jackpot if they get the luck on their skilled game.As you said many people get greedy on their game by playing and after the small win in the gambling site.But they forgot the game winning is not the permanent to anyone,the tricks can be used.But after the failure of tricks and strategies,the gamblers should follow the random bet to avoid of losing money in the gambling site.The luck was the expected by many gamblers in the gambling site.

you can't eradicate luck factor in your games especially if you are playing those regular games such as dice, hilo, roulette, etc. skill is only for games like poker. and do remember, any known strategy such as martingale, d'alembert, won't always work in your favour. so those strategies are not an assurance that you will make it if you apply like martingale strategy.

In my opinion, if there are many gamblers who win, it is also because they have luck in gambling, in my opinion the winnings in gambling are only based on luck, some people believe in patterns and tricks to be able to win at gambling, but I don't. believe that because in my opinion all gambling has a side of luck that can determine whether you win or lose, although there are also some gambling that require skill to win, but that is also not free from luck.
Is it true that many people get rich by gambling? I'm not sure about that.
Even though there are people who get rich by gambling, in my opinion it is not worth using as motivation, because gambling is a game of chance with different people's luck and they will not all win the same. Therefore, there is no motivation for someone who is rich to use it as a motivation for gambling, it is the same as a way to spend a lot of money.
If the gambling ratio is 1:1 only win or lose, surely it's not just luck that plays a role there. there can also be seen from the statistics of the game. and self-control and the brain to stop playing when you get a win or stop when you get a loss that is not too much. not continuing to lust for more or returning money from gambling losses.

So what is their victory based on? because of tricks or patterns? can that really make them win? I don't think so, because even though they use their own skills, they are also helped by luck on their side.

But even so I think people make too big a deal about luck sometimes.  Sure you gotta have some luck to come out on top, but you also gotta have skills to be a good gambler.  I'm talking about knowin the odds inside out, getting how the games really work, and being able to make the right calls when the heat is on.
Yes, it is true that in the end luck will determine the final result, although there are gambling games that only rely on luck without hard work such as slot games and there are also gambling games that really require hard work such as analyzing and organizing strategies to gain profits from gambling, but speaking Regarding luck, all gamblers need it, but it's a good idea to use a little effort or skill to get it.

Skills in gambling are really needed to play well but the point is to remember that gambling must have a budget limit so as not to gamble beyond the limits, gamblers are always like that, they are more focused on finding their luck in gambling without ever caring about limiting themselves from gambling, even though it is more It is important that we do not become addicted to gambling. After all, just play and let luck decide

Existing gambling really requires luck and luck is what you have to pay attention to, I mean if they lose when gambling then just understand that if at that time they weren't lucky, then they have to stop and come back later at a later date where maybe their luck is there. in the coming day. Even though there are some types of gambling that do require skill, I think luck still plays a role in determining victory or defeat at the end of the game.

That's true, however, we must have gambling limits, one of which is the budget because it can reduce the risk of bigger losses, because it is true that many gamblers don't care about this, there are also those who don't care about the losses so they continue to gamble even though they only lose and lose. get it, because maybe they are like that because of their wrong thinking and make them addicted to gambling and experience endless losses.

Realizing that kind of matter saves his butt from losing more money, and the good thing is to develop that kind of ability to control things the right way, instead of pushing for more, better to take the rest and call the day if luck is not letting you win, adding to that, if you know how to balance and control your gambling activities, the chance also that you may take advantage of luck that may come up and back your bets. You will be able to quit before you miss your chance of getting those profits. Experienced gamblers understand how things happen and that's the edge of having that kind of experience when you attached yourself into gambling.
Yes, it will save him from losing his money because he can know when he should stop gambling and will not force himself to continue gambling any longer. Knowing how long he can gamble will give him the opportunity to prevent further losses. We can't force luck to always come with us, and that's what makes us have to be able to know when to stop gambling. For this reason, we need to study the experiences of other gamblers, especially those who have shared their gambling stories, to get something useful to use for our benefit. Maybe we still make mistakes by forgetting to know when to stop gambling, which is normal, so we are always required to learn more to try to develop our abilities to prevent bad things from happening.

I don't agree with you that sport betting requires more luck than poker. In sports betting we can easily analyze the wining team before the games comes to an end based on their performance, odds, player present etc. even if the probability of you winning a sport bet is low, poker is still not match for sports betting. Poker is entirely based on luck with just few skills. After shuffling the card and sharing it, your probability of winning now depends on the luck that hits your side that day. Poker is a game were you don't get to see your opponent cards and mind so if luck fall in the hand of a total beginner, he might even be the one to empty you account that day Grin.

Sorry, but it looks like you know little about sports betting, and you know even less about poker. In short, in sports betting your knowledge about team's performance is balanced by the odds. It's not like they both are factor, they are the opposites. In poker even with very bad cards you can win through bluffing, so luck plays minimal role there.

It's a good thing you even know about odds and how they can help make predictions much more easier. Odds are inspired by the the performance of the team last games or head to head with the opposition team, or even the players available for that match. And this is the more reason why after lines up have been uploaded the odds changes. So man, you got it all wrong. Though there are times were result doesn't go in accordance with the initial odds but majority of the time, it plays in accordance. And apart from betting on pre match games you can also bet on live games after observing their performance for a while. Gambling isn't a vet rich quick scheme, so you'll be fine accepting the odds during the match.

So, we can conclude that gambling is about luck, most of the time. Can I say that great poker professionals like Erik Seidel, Daniel Negreanu and Liv Boeree have won their millions only because of luck? No. But that luck has played a big part in all that, yes, I think so. And in my opinion sports betting requires more luck than poker, but maybe it's my own opinion.

I don't agree with you that sport betting requires more luck than poker. In sports betting we can easily analyze the wining team before the games comes to an end based on their performance, odds, player present etc. even if the probability of you winning a sport bet is low, poker is still not match for sports betting. Poker is entirely based on luck with just few skills. After shuffling the card and sharing it, your probability of winning now depends on the luck that hits your side that day. Poker is a game were you don't get to see your opponent cards and mind so if luck fall in the hand of a total beginner, he might even be the one to empty you account that day Grin.

Sorry, but it looks like you know little about sports betting, and you know even less about poker. In short, in sports betting your knowledge about team's performance is balanced by the odds. It's not like they both are factor, they are the opposites. In poker even with very bad cards you can win through bluffing, so luck plays minimal role there.

I will not deny what you say. yeah, " we can conclude that gambling is about luck, most of the time". like some of the names you mentioned in the world of professional gambling in the field of poker. they really got lucky by getting millions of dollars, and that's why they got what they deserved. But in reality, luck will not come without effort, knowledge, experience and everything else involved. just like this life, everything is related to luck. Likewise with gambling, without luck which is related to each other, we will not win anything. In short, we agree with what you said including sports gambling. But in essence the concept is not that simple, I'm sure you also understand it.

Now we are talking about sports, for example football. When the two teams compete, luck also plays a role. This luck must also be accompanied by effort, which is carried out by the two teams competing against each other. starting from the depth of a team's players, systems, patterns, strategies and all kinds of things carried out by the two teams competing against each other to win the battle. Just like gambling, betting requires experience, understanding, research, analysis, odds, options, and most importantly knowing exactly what we are betting on. After that, we will hand it over to the team that will compete. which team is luckier and also the choice options in our betting. This effort is made solely to minimize losses, without any effort with the variables that we do, it means we are betting only relying on luck. As a result, there are more losses than wins. because we don't try, which we should be able to do with our creativity. just like poker professionals, they need time to learn everything to achieve the skills they want.

I agree, it's not totally about luck if we are talking about poker and sports betting. Just let's not forget that other games like dice, plinko, mines, slots, Roulette ... they are all about luck, and no strategies work with them. Let's not forget about that.

Yeah, I get what you're saying about hard work versus luck when it comes to gambling.  You can spend all kinds a time researchin the games and odds and still end up losing, while some other cat might make a killing without breaking a sweat.  Thats just how it goes, right?

But even so I think people make too big a deal about luck sometimes.  Sure you gotta have some luck to come out on top, but you also gotta have skills to be a good gambler.  I'm talking about knowin the odds inside out, getting how the games really work, and being able to make the right calls when the heat is on.
I agree that luck plays an important role in any gambling. Especially on sports betting. Let's put match fixing aside for now. In general, in sports betting, of course, if you want to get big profits, you have to bet on the favorite team because you will get a multiplier above 1. However, if you are unlucky, you could even lose if you bet on the favorite team. It happens often and it would be even more interesting if we talked about combat sports because anything can happen there. So I think luck plays an important role here. I still can't forget some sports betting moments like Amanda Nunes being beaten by Penna and at that time the bookie put +1000 on Penna's win. Imagine if someone bet that Penna would win and went through submission. I forget the details but I think someone won $2,500 dollars on a $100 bet that night. CMIIW.

Relying solely on making cash from gambling is indeed risky, given the low statistical probability of consistently winning in every game at every casino. It's essential to approach gambling with a mindful understanding of both the risks and potential outcomes.
