Apart from skill and luck , there is the third part that can stop or determine the chances of a gambler to win or lose and that is the house edge. This is important to note also that a gambler may not freely be winning bets steadily without losses especially in casino games because it is believed that there is a little bit of advange that the casino will have because he is in business to make money and so has to sustain the business. Therefore, we have to also put the house edge into consideration when talking about skill and lucky.
What is worrying is if a gambler experiences a losing streak without being able to win a single round. But this is often experienced by gamblers who are chasing victory or those who play gambling. It would be best for gamblers to realize that no matter what, it is the casino that will excel in its place and the casino that will make more money from the gamblers and even the gamblers who manage to win a lot of money. The casino will get its luck by making more money, so the casino owner will be very happy to see his income increase over time.

No one should gamble because they are looking for ways to to make money and choose gambling. What that will end it is addiction and further loss of money.

The best way gamblers can be disciplined is to only have 5% of monthly income for gambling and it should not surpass that amount. This has been the strategy that has been helping me since long time ago till now.
Yeah you are right because gambling should not be in anyway consider as a way of making money or a source of income because the outcome of it may not be pleasing, so perhaps that's one of the reasons why most people are constantly falling victim of gambling because all there mindset is just the possibility of wining a big money through gambling.

Just like you said is actually possible for someone who has that kind of perception on gambling to become an addict because when someone has so much passion on gambling and sees it as an easy way or source of income there is every tendency that the person may likely gamble using everything they have in other to win big.
Unfortunately, most gamblers think that gambling is the best option for them to improve their lives. They just imagine that winning the jackpot prize will make them rich instantly and they keep that thinking rather than seeing the negative results.
Well, I couldn't deny that this is my view when entering the life of gambling but I realize that all of it is just imagination. It is all about luck, even though some will say that it also needs knowledge and skill, but without luck, that seems impossible to win especially in the lottery.

That's what's really unfortunate, they put too much hope in something that basically has no certainty and guarantee, maybe I'll call them like losers who want to get rich but don't want to put in the effort and just depend on luck. It really doesn't make sense, after all it won't be that easy for the bookie to give you a win, you should know what the purpose of the establishment of the casino is, if indeed this activity is proven to make you rich, maybe many people have proven it and it turns out that the opposite is happening, more people suffer negative impacts than positive, and I think that alone can answer that gambling activities are not a place to earn income but only for fun activities along with testing your luck at a certain time.

Exactly, it is just their imagination and hallucination, it can arise because they are too hopeful and only see from one side only, namely the chances of winning but absolutely do not see the risks that can make their lives destroyed. I think that no matter how skillful and knowledgeable you are, the final result always refers to how lucky you are at that time.

I often say and we discuss this that gambling is based on luck, even though predictable bets such as sports betting still have a little dependence on luck, especially parlay bets.
but we have to remember that there are gambling games that dont rely on luck but rely on how much skill we have at the poker table and in this poker game we only need skill to be able to win in every round and look at some professional gamblers who gamble at poker games they can get rich.
That means that gambling games that don't rely on luck and rely on a lot of skill can give gamblers the opportunity to win. But they have to continue to improve their abilities in playing gambling games so that they can continue to win, even though that won't always be possible because there are definitely people who have higher playing abilities than them. After all, gambling games require luck and ability, but it also depends on the gambling game played by the gambler.

This is true, otherwise it wouldn't be called gambling, but if a person feels lucky, they can risk a small amount of money that they can lose to try to make some extra money. In bars here in my country there are many slot machines, sometimes I play and get some extra money, but I always play what I don't mind losing
If only every gambler would do the same. People start gambling by saying that they will simply try their luck and then stop but they forget after starting that they were supposed to try their luck and not gamble everything away just trying to get something big which isn't the point of gambling as the wins are not guaranteed and one may lose all their wealth in gambling without being able to gain any value in the long run, so there is no point if one understands.

Gambling is fun if you have an allocated budget for it and you know you can't gamble more once it's over, that is when you will enjoy the wins a bit more because, after every win, you realize that you have just got some extra money that you can either gamble or withdraw and enjoy by buying something you like, be it food or something else.

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.
Mostly yes, it is all about luck. It's the risk we are willing to take and if we were lucky enough we might win big or if we were unlucky we may lose all. That's just it. There is no backdoor or anything that can bypass this. Many will say, experience also matters and yes, it does. But experience comes later. What good is experience if you can't even win a single bet? Even with all the riches of the world, if luck isn't on your side, then forget about keeping your riches to yourself.

Gamble winning are strictly, from my point of view, all about luck. 100%

If its not about luck then it should be about skill but looking closely, how may skillful gamblers have actually ended with the winning streak consistently. That tells you that the connectivity with skill, consistency has no rewards as winning.

Luck seats chiefly as the main driving force for winning.

I think all gambling is about luck, no matter what kind of gambling you do especially gambling that has complicated algorithms like slots that are really purely always about how lucky you are. You said sports betting doesn't really require pure luck, yes maybe that's true too because it's not only luck that you really need but you also can't forget that there are some skills that you must have that will make your luck percentage closer.

But on the other hand as I have said before that whatever type of gambling you do, it is still only luck that can answer the final result whether it is in accordance with what you want or not, because I think that even if you have pretty good skills but that does not always rule out the possibility that you will be able to lose at the end of the session, but if you have skills in the field of sports then I think it's better for you to get involved in that bet instead of choosing gambling like slots which are very difficult to solve, with that then I think the number of defeats you will not dominate too much because with the skills you have at least allow you to get a victory which is also quite often.
Luck in gambling is something that every gambler needs instead of relying on their skills or knowledge. Obviously I won't argue about it, because all gamblers really need it. Luck is not only about small or big wins, but luck can also be about winning nothing and losing nothing. Of course you can assume luck in different ways, but that's how it is.

Real example: I believe Manchester United can win the match against Galatasaray in the Champions League and I can win the bet if I bet on Manchester United winning. However I failed to place a bet because I fell asleep 1 hour before the match started, that made me lucky because otherwise my bet would have lost because the final score was 3-3.

If it was an online casino that offers slots, and other system generated results I think it's really about luck but when we talk about sports betting I don't think so. Sportsbetting requires skills to analyse who's team has the highest chance to win thought not 100% accurate but we are just talking about chances and luck.

Gambling is like speculation and when you predict sometimes it will not work out for you and when you do not predict also it will not work out for to win, a wining in a gambling is something we have to stand firm and know that it's something that have to do with luck but some people think that gambling to win it is something that have to do with your predictions and as number as gambling you will place or play will give you wining in a gambling, so I don't believe that gambling is something you can bold or proud of that you know it all, basically gambling is a good thing and it have to do with luck and it's not because of your numerous places you gamble that will give you wining, I really want to change people from such mindset
Predictions are important, but they're like anticipating the weather every time - improbable. Isnt it odd that people think gambling success shows skill or insight? A self-deception maze, this mindset.

If gambling success were based on predictions and frequency, wouldnt we have a formula by now? Gambling is fascinating and dangerous because of its randomness. Gambling is unpredictable, so be aware. Recognizing gambling as a game of chance, not skill, encourages responsible gaming. Your goal of altering mindsets to view gambling as a pleasurable hobby rather than a road to success is admirable.

Besides luck, it's also important to be able to listen to your own voice. For this you should be able to meditate and do other practices. Often a person anticipates the result of an action, but excitement drowns out this feeling. Therefore, you must also be able to control yourself

Gambling has different types of games based on analytical and luck. It is true that analysts who are experienced in gambling will be more profitable. But I think that luck has a big contribution in gambling for all cases. There is no game that is profitable in gambling regardless of luck. If it was the case that experienced people would win more at gambling then those experienced people would have become the richest people in the world. Since there is no such example, we must rely on general knowledge as well as luck. But if a gambler can use his skills and experience, he can comparatively get better results. Best for a gambler if he can find a little satisfaction in gambling without expecting to get extra from gambling.
Yes, luck plays a role in giving gamblers victory even though they use their analysis and experience to predict the outcome of the match. They also still need luck, and this luck cannot always be by our side and help us win the match or gambling game. We can only hope to get lucky so we can win and we also have to try to limit our gambling activities so we don't experience problems. We should not gamble just by hoping for luck because that could provide a greater risk of losing money. We can only use gambling as entertainment and nothing more so that we can enjoy gambling as it should be.

Each casino has its own system and winnings will not always come to every player. This is like a random system that gives a win of 1x and a loss that may be more than 2x and this is also based on luck in some gambling games such as slot gambling. But for bets like football, it's not all luck because you need research to see how the players are and what factors will make them win or lose. Gambling should not be the main place to make money, it is just an entertainment game and if you get a profit it is a bonus. Dedicating all the money to gambling would not be justified, because there must be a limit on how much will be played in gambling.

We have different kinds of gambling, and one factor that unites all of them is risk, although their levels of risks varies. And the determinants of their risk levels is the luck in different kinds of games, meaning that some depends totally on luck, while others have various levels of luck. Example is dice and roulette, totally depend on luck, while poker game and sports, requires different level's of calculations and predictions. In my country, you'll see people in lotto shops predicting and permuting strings of numbers that they can pair to win. These types of gambling don't totally depend on luck, however the calculations are not a guarantee for winnings. So I'll say that gambling that totally depend on luck carries more risk than the ones that requires predictions and calculations.

      -  Well, we each have our own perspective and interpretation of gambling; to others, it is good and nothing bad as long as you don't make other people angry. And if there is someone else who thinks that gambling is a source of income, there is nothing we can do if this is true in the application of his life.

But we also know that most of them gamble because it's just a hobby for them because maybe it helps them in other ways, like maybe they're just going through something emotionally or they're just bored, and it's a way for them to be relieved.

as the title suggests, gambling is not always about luck, sometimes you also need emotional control, strategy and good analysis in gambling in order to achieve maximum results. because even though luck is the key to successful gambling, there are still several other factors that are needed by gamblers so that they can become successful gamblers and not be careless. even though it is quite complex to explain this, i am sure that gambling is not always about luck.
Exactly, luck is something that no one can control and so we should not rely on it even if we believe in it, improving and relying on the stuff that you can control like the ones that you have mentioned is what anyone should be focusing if they want to be competent and get a lot of fun out of their gambling journey and experience. I do think that gambling is about luck but it is also about going against it and trying your own luck.
Luck will only come to the right person, but we don't know how long luck will be on our side. And after we get lucky by winning, we should be able to stop gambling because we can't hope that luck will always be with us. Indeed, gambling does not only require luck but also analysis and skill, but that is for skill-based gambling games. Meanwhile, for luck-based gambling games, we must have the luck to win. Indeed, sometimes we are confused about whether gambling is just about luck or whether there are other things, such as analysis and skill, because it depends on the gambling game we play. But whatever it is, we must still limit gambling activities and also limit the use of money.
