I boarded a bus going home from the bank yesterday, then I remembered some football match had few minutes to kick-off then I brought out my phone from my pocket to place some bet, immediately I opened the bet app a man sitting next to me, tapped me and said that gambling is Satanic and I should desist from it, at first it sounded so funny and made me laugh but with a serious face he further said that it's manipulated by demons and that's why the house would always have the higher edge. He said he used to be a gambler but stopped when he discovered that and that there are demons helping the casino and sport betting owners to manipulate people into becoming addicted and getting more money from them, they give to selective people knowing fully well more people would lose and they'll gain back what they lost when more bettors lose the old man made it sound real but I don't believe that, i think he's lost too much in gambling before he stopped and is looking for anyway no matter what to discourage people from being like him or he's just being too superstitious. What's your opinion about this please?
Whether you want to believe it or not is a person's right to believe it or not, but here I want to deepen your statement so that it can be understood by everyone, often everyone who does hot money business such as gambling will usually always use mystical things to help attract someone. to be tempting in this case, but not everyone will admit it, but this has been confirmed by several people who have previously experienced it, usually there is a collaborative agreement between the owner and the shaman to include the devil to increase a person's attraction to gambling in whatever form it takes, so that you continue to have a high level of curiosity about gambling, so what you are saying now or the person you mentioned is true, but it all comes down to whether you want to believe it or not, everyone has different beliefs. 
Topic: Is this true or some superstitious believe about gambling? - page 12. (Read 2346 times)
My opinion is that believing in demons is bullshit, whether it is applied to gambling or in other fields. Those who have superstitions have an archaic mentality, not a modern scientific-rational one. Forget demons and study the mathematics that governs gambling, you will be much better off.
I respect people who have superstitious beliefs because I know they also have their own reasons for that. However, when it comes to gambling, instead of blaming all those losses to the demons behind the casinos, why not blame yourself because you never act as a responsible gambler but instead, you turn into an addicted one. It’s not the casino’s choice to see you losing consistently, but it’s actually your own choice and action that made you suffer from that. Furthermore, gambling is a business, so the edge is always on the house, not on the various players, otherwise we won’t see gambling casinos stay longer in the market because they resort into bankruptcy after a month or two of operation.
Blaming the casino for superstition for every loss gambler experiences is also very inappropriate attitude to take because everything happens as result of the gamblers own decisions.
Gambling carries the risk of losing and gambling has several bad impacts on gamblers, but they always make the wrong decision by continuing to do whatever they want when gambling, obviously whatever the result is, it is the gambler fault.
Linking superstitious problems to gambling will only make things worse and damage self confidence.
Well, that what must gamblers should think, logically gambling is business and they build casinos or gambling sites to make profit, so it natural that they are on top and gamblers as customers will only lose.
Some people is like that, actually, specially in a context where they are waiting for the bus to arrive, waiting on a line on the bank or any situations where boredom could strike to them. Those are social people who likes to talk about anything to complete strangers outside of their home.
It has probably happened to you, some guy approaches you and he slowly starts to open up to you and talk about his life. There is nothing wrong about it, in my opinion, I have even noticed that the elderly are more prone to do so than the young people.
Either way, one is not supposed to allow the believes of others to affect our own, if we believe that other person is giving legitimate advice is up to us to analyze it and see if makes sense to improve our situation, otherwise, just discard it and move on.
my father thought me to never entertain strangers specially those who will just approach you in public
without important matters to tackle ?
I will keep silent or will move away to show them im not interested.
Everyone has their own life choices and habits and as you said that maybe since childhood you have been forbidden by your father to talk to people you don't know, there is nothing wrong with that and maybe I think your family prioritizes prevention to avoid some unwanted things such as especially so that you are not influenced by anything that others say that can change our beliefs, but if we have prepared various things in ourselves then I think there is nothing wrong with mingling with others, but it must also be accompanied by restrictions.
Well, I don't know about you, but in my opinion, it goes a little bit too far not to talk to strangers whatsoever and take it to heart while one is being taken care by ones of father.
Regardless one is taking about gambling or not, most of people we have met in our life had been strangers to us at some point, hadnt they?
What matters is to correctly and accurately identity the red flags scammers will always leave around unwillingly so anyone aware of them won't fall for their tricks to take our money.
It would be a very miserable and strange life if I have to live in fear and in a constant state of skepticism about all people around me.
True. Thanks to cryptocurrency and the Blockchains we do not need to further rely one hundred percent on trust, sadly that does not apply to human being.... yet

That's right, most gambling places will be able to survive for a long time if they have players who regularly place bets at their place because every gambler will of course experience a lot of losses.

If this person have ever been in the casino or read any kind of book about gambling he would have known that the house has an edge that controls the funds people receive while gambling. No need listening to his thoughts or even bother on it, such people are just trying to distract the player from focusing on his games. However, if I were to be there I'd clear his doubts and teach him about the housing edge. And how gambling losses actually works. Letting such wrong ideas slide by is quite dangerous. We don't know how many more gamblers he'd say similar things to. Correcting him is the best thing to do in this case.

First thing is that Why talking to a complete stranger? and the way that person approach you?
it looks like He is the one who is possessed and not the gambling because he is the one who is crossing
between your space and his lol.
If I were you even if he says true here yet you will be the one who must decide , I am not a fan of
addiction in gambling but I know that this is something that also brings joy to players so it is not demonic
but it become one once you choose the wrong path.

You shouldnt believe all advice. A casual conversation with a stranger can reveal surprising things. Perhaps a seasoned gambler or wise elder shares their life lessons.
Focus on listening and being open-minded. You may learn something. You've connected with another person even if the chat doesnt reveal anything life-changing. We should value that in a disconnected world.

He doesn’t need to have lost money to tell you that. People have their beliefs and some he their beliefs because someone was able to convince them that that’s the truth. Saying that it satanic depends on what he means by “satanic”. The word can mean many things like saying that something is too addictive that it is bad. But then it can also mean the Satan that has to do with hell. If he’s talking about it being addictive, of course it is, but it has nothing to do with Satan.
Well, you're right every individual have a choice of believing in whatever they want to and that's why I won't even give such person a listening ear, I'll even tell him politely to mind his business and allow me focus on my bookings cause such discussions would distract someone to make wrong choices by picking the wrong odds or so. As a gambler you need to be focused when booking game.Well if the term satanic he meant was being addictive then it's understanding and he's right to some point but then if am not an addictive person I won't take his words seriously I'll just see him as someone who thinks am an addicted gambler and is trying to help me from it but if I notice the satanic he meant was relating to the Satan in hell, I'll just laugh over it and continue to focus on what I'm doing.

Though wired to see patterns, they may not be real. Gambler's fallacy: Angry spirits cause bad luck? Get out! We're just trying to make sense of the chaos. The math supports casinos, not ghosts. This game's dealer is probability, not your lucky rabbit's foot.

That's right. And the math is not so evil either. Casinos have just a slightly better chance of winning, that's all. You should keep that in mind and take the risk if you fancy it.
You want to win? Think rationally. Every dice roll and card dealt is independent of your wishes or mumbo jumbo. It's about freedom, not cynicism! The pieces of superstitions don't fit, but people keep putting them together. Especially after losing large, they cling at straws. Get out of that echo chamber! Think critically: if these spirits are so strong, why aren't they earning casino pay?
Although thinking rationally won't help you to win in purely luck-based games, it won't hurt overall for sure.
Think critically: if these spirits are so strong, why aren't they earning casino pay?
I personally don't believe in any spirits, but I think those who do are of the opinion that spirits do not need money.

Most people that have loss to gambling back then can be unbelievable having such archaic mindset,have heard that a lot times usually when I was much younger we were told that there's a spirit that controls all of this and thus tend to favour the casinos with more earnings leaving the gambler addicted and a looser.
And sometimes when I was much younger I use to believe such and stay far away from it but as I grew up to know some certainty of life I had to believe yes they are really superstitious and some people can be so spiritual and making sure other members follow their words.
Losses in gambling often entrap individuals within traditional superstitions. When I was young, I heard tales about spirits dictating gamblers' losses to fuel their addiction while casinos prospered, which led me to avoid gambling based on such beliefs.
In my youth, I too succumbed to such superstitions and kept away from gambling. With age came the realization that life is not as simple as being governed by mystical forces always. We live in a society rich with superstition and spiritual beliefs; many are still held captive by these beliefs, even propagating them onto others who follow suit.
In the end, grasping reality and steering clear of high-stake gambles is deemed prudent. While superstitions and spiritual inclinations may find a place within one's belief system, it's crucial to consider gambling as an endeavour that demands astute prudence and responsibility, irrespective of any mystical connotations it holds for individuals.

This is very funny but there is no diabolism or superstitious belief in gambling, it is just a normal business that you as the owner can either gain or lose sometimes even though it looks like losers are higher than winners but their are some times that due to large winnings payments are not paid immediately because the casino owners may run out of cash so they can withheld payments for some interval of time when a lot of losses have been realized then they pay previous winnings. But too much addiction makes it looks like there is a force behind gambling but nothing of such, if you play responsibly and at leisure with little amount you will find gambling interesting.
That's not funny because for some people, they still believes about superstitious in gambling. Some people uses something that can helps them wins when playing gambling but that will not guarantees to helps them to wins. Other people will say casino use something related to superstitious that can helps casino to beat people when those people playing gambling. If those people can considers that gambling is just a business which gives many gambling games to them, they will not thinks about superstitious or other things that related to that. They will not uses much money to playing gambling because they can loses that money and that's not because of superstitious. But we knows that casino will gets the biggest profits than gamblers and that's the fact for gamblers to realizes and accepts it.

I boarded a bus going home from the bank yesterday, then I remembered some football match had few minutes to kick-off then I brought out my phone from my pocket to place some bet, immediately I opened the bet app a man sitting next to me, tapped me and said that gambling is Satanic and I should desist from it, at first it sounded so funny and made me laugh but with a serious face he further said that it's manipulated by demons and that's why the house would always have the higher edge. He said he used to be a gambler but stopped when he discovered that and that there are demons helping the casino and sport betting owners to manipulate people into becoming addicted and getting more money from them, they give to selective people knowing fully well more people would lose and they'll gain back what they lost when more bettors lose the old man made it sound real but I don't believe that, i think he's lost too much in gambling before he stopped and is looking for anyway no matter what to discourage people from being like him or he's just being too superstitious. What's your opinion about this please?
Dont mind other peoples words and just simply play on what you are really that tending to deal with. As long you are playing for fun and not that impulsively playing gambling and making out some more deposit like a mad man then you are doing good but if not and you've been wary that you are spending that huge then better to have a break. Making up some self realizations are really that something a moment which is really hard to have as an individual. On the time that you would really be dealing up with gambling then you should really be just that careful on what you are dealing with specially on the imposed possible addictionthat it could really be having on where you should be watching out those probabilities. You cant really be able to blame someone to make up those words even though it is already that big too much when that kind of
advise but at least there's someone who had been showing up some concern in regarding gambling possible addiction. Dont let those words will be bothering you, just let it slip and play accordingly for the sake of fun
then it wont really be something an issue for you.

You know what maybe this guy is on to something haha. I mean gambling is a big business, but to say that Demons are running it is definitely a pretty crazy idea to just throw around like that. I am leaning more towards your suspicion that the guy has lost one too many bets and has now made gambling synonymous with the devil. The bible doesn't strictly say that gambling is a sin or anything like that, however, the bible does warn against the love of money and dishonest gain. If I were you I would have pressed this guy for so much more information I just find this statement fascinating, I wonder what evidence if any he had to support these bizarre claims.Jump to:
