I have noticed that sometimes when I gamble, I used to win unexpectedly even when I never intended to bet. The most shocking thing is that I usually win when my mind is not that prepared to gamble probably jokingly. Anything I'm focused and well prepared I usually lose. I don't know if this is affiliated to luck or just emotions. Does this happens to others?

It's luck and pure coin-incidence if you are betting in luck-based games like slot and dice even if you are not mentally prepared to play, you will eventually if luck hit you happen to me so many times I was drunk and just make a random roll and every roll I made I win, but it will not happen every day, there are really days that your luck is on your side even if you are or not mentally prepare to play.
You yourself are suggesting a very good method - to play when you are drunk.  And the more drunk, the more interesting it becomes.  Your moves become almost unpredictable, you don’t think at all what to bet on - you’ll bet on anything.  And it is quite possible that luck will turn to you and you will win.  And if not, then you are drunk and take it easier than when you are sober.  And this is also a big plus ...

Luck cannot be attracted by focusing and wishing or not intending but it is in your path that it will come.
Meaning that if you are gonna win this time then it will happen and if you are not deserving this day? no matter what you do it will not happen.

Emotion has nothing to do with gambling for you to win, it's a luck-based game and it's a fact, you can be in your best element and still lose and you can be in a bad mood and you can still win, the key to winning money in gambling is to learn and control when you can quit, that is when you are lucky winning in your rolls, do not follow the advice strike when the iron is hot it won't work.

There is no hidden Science to that. Just called it you are lucky at some point and bad luck on the other hand.

How about just following it for nowsince looks like it's effective for you in the long run. But soon you will realize and understand that it won't always be the case.

It's just a: coincidence; maybe you just told us that's always the case but in reality, it's not; it only happened just a few times so you think that's always the situation.

I experienced like this sometimes and I would say this is purely coincidence because it's not affiliated with my emotion nor my luck because there are times that it won't happen either if i jokingly play or planned to play. It's just that my luck is out of nowhere and no matter what I do it won't make me win.

So it's just a random events that would occur on us sometimes and it's not connected to whatsoever we think or feeling.

It's just coincidence. Gambling is not attracted to emotion. I mean it doesn't depend on your emotions. Gambling is based mostly on pure luck. So when you weren't "prepared" for gambling, but you still won, it's because you got lucky. You would have had the same result if you were prepared. You probably lose more when you are focused because you play for long. In gambling, in the long run, it is always the house that will win. So stop over thinking, place one or two bets. If you are on profit, take them and leave. If you are on loss, forget it and move on.
Yes,it isn't but there are people whom do really think of about possible connections about the two without even realizing that it is just pure coincidence and there are no things that would

affect on increasing your chance of winning but rather with sheer luck and when the time you had realized these things then you would surely leave out those kind of beliefs.

Don't mind about patterns or rituals or something like that when you do play because there's no such thing that can determine on how lucky you are on that day.

Sometimes it contributes to the possible luck we get since actually we can feel if we are in mood to gamble or not since feeling is so heavy if we are not in the mood to bet but we still push it since we just want to play at that time. Although patterns wouldn't work in real time that's why we really need  to be in  condition to play  so that we can satisfy ourself we want to have fun and not to be stress out on bad results if we are not in proper mind.

I think personally has nothing to do with the two. What you experience may just happen pure coincidence! and this is because of your luck time. Sometimes we don't know when we are lucky in that.

However, emotional involvement does have an effect on gambling. When playing gambling, there will be emotions related to how angry we are when they lose, feeling worried, happy to pass, and also the feelings that sometimes make us surprised.
What's more, the existence of these emotions might affect how we do their strategies, not determine we win or not.

Probably a stroke of luck, but I don't think it can go on regularly! In betting, as in any other activity, you can't rely on luck alone!
And if you lose after doing an analysis, it means that you don't analyse events well!
Even if you analyze before betting, there's still no assurance for that because it is still unpredictable and it happened already on many matches where the result is different from expected one.

Our belief lies on many things especially when it comes to gambling, if you feel luck then you'll continue to gamble but if you feel uncomfortable you stop playing that's where your emotion takes over. This is more on a human nature and belief, luck will not always be there but you emotion is there always so better to learn how to control your emotion especially the greed and the positivity.

I don't think things are as you described. Try right now to go to an online casino without hoping to win and see if your assumption works)

The human brain is designed so that by analyzing past events it builds logical chains and tries to find the factors that led to this or that event. Even if it does not find the factors that led to the winning it uses those that it knows, so very often such logical chains are erroneous.

I think your situation has nothing to do with luck and rather has a rational explanation. People lose the most when they aim for the big win because it drives a person to desire more, which leads to riskier moves combined with increased emotionality (especially when one starts chasing losses and loses even more).

When some people win big, it's because they weren't afraid to try a more aggressive approach! After all it's gambling, where's the fun if you don't risk here and there?

On the other hand, when someone plays for fun and doesn’t look into big wins, he might as well get lucky and win, because in this cases moves won’t be as risky and probably less frequent (people sometimes tend to play very fast under the emotional influence).

I am not sure I am following you here... who plays for fun with small stakes will have to play slots or some games that have high payouts! When you do that with a small balance you are still risking losing everything, without any big hit!

We play to win... we are emotional when we win or lose, we are emotional while we play, and all that can be entertaining, especially when we are having good wins... and luck is just a part of everything, getting lucky is a product of trying and trying, if you don't try I guess you can't get lucky in the first place!

It's perfectly possible that with some sportsbook and gambling sites that they use intentional psychological tricks to try to induce you to gamble money. If they notice that you have deposited a lot of money, lost a load of it and have slowed down a lot - they might give you many more targeted freebies. Like free bets sent to your email address or lots of wins on free games that they might offer, in an attempt to get you back in the "zone" and depositing more money which they will take from you. Ultimately they have to look at the profit/loss on every account, they are only interested in losers because the winners will be draining profits from them.

Neither! Gambling winning is not connected to human qualities in any way. You can it's probably your luck that is getting you some winnings but nothing else! In my opinion, gambling is not a method of making money per say. If you wish to enjoy some adrenaline rush, gamble! If you wish to make money, Trade! If you make money in gambling, that's the cherry on the top of the cake.  It's a pure coincidence that you are finding some trend in your gambling activities! I am sure that's not the case for many of us!
Possible but not a solid indication that these things are the main reasons on why you win and on why you lost.Its just been a pure coincidence on why it did happen and once
you had observed it out then it doesnt still mean that you are winning when you do joke around and to test out for yourself then try to joke around and play
again and lets see if those results would be just the same on next game or you would se the real truth of essence of gambling when it comes to winning odds.
Gambling does simply needs luck and no other factors are needed unless you are dealing with strategy based which is also a big factor.

In my particular case I think that the game attracts is because of the emotion, many people in their psychological states manage to be successful and many say that they have very good luck, and maybe they do, but the combination of luck + emotion can be dangerous, because it can cause addiction and the dangerous thing is that money can be easily lost if there is not a good control.

But you have to be very careful with progressive slots because this is where you can lose, you enjoy strong emotions, but in the long run you can lose a lot, they say:

Quote
Progressive slots usually offer a maximum prize that is constantly growing, as more and more players place bets on slot machines that count towards the prize. Therefore, the chances for winning the maximum prize, as well as the regular bets, is much lower compared to video slots.

These are only keys when playing in casinos, many who let themselves be carried away by emotions do not measure consequences and do not stop to think or take into account the probabilities of losing when they believe that they have good luck in the game play.

Most likely it comes down to your luck, from my experience these mood swings can affect your way of betting but it doesn't affect the outcome. At one point i've been in a similar situation where i'd start to care less about gambling once I kept on losing then later on I slowly recovered my losses from that session, but that doesn't mean that it's all because of my emotion. There are times where i'll feel very confident on a team but in the end they'll lose then there's moments where risky bets ends up being one of your safest bet.

Indeed! you can change your emotions but there's nothing that influneced the outcome, it's more on luck that carry the winnings, if happened that you are lucky after swinging your emotions then expect that win will comes your way.

Gambling mostly depends from how you percepts things out, even the outcomes is not accurate and with how OP see things there's no proper expalanation than luck which is not always around.

Enjoy instead and focus, maybe it's just inside your mind better to forget about it as it can lead you to more losses.. Wink

Your Client Seed determine your luck and that is pretty random, so no emotion in this world will be able to change that.  Wink  On some casinos you can change that Seed ....so you can change the possible future outcome of your bets. Your emotions can then come into play, because you are making a calculated decision to change the seed, based on how you feel at the time.  Wink

Unfortunately you do not know if that "Seed" change will bring you luck or if it will bring you bad luck.... so you are either lucky on unlucky to change to a winning Seed.  Wink
