So imagine doing all these together, most gambling games needs your understanding of the odds and taking them into account, especially when wagering, so how can a gambler get involved in all games at once just to increase their chances of getting lucky? Stop this as it's not a strategy to win, it's a strategy to lose.

All the gambling games except poker and sports betting are just based on luck. I believe playing different games will not gonna affect win/lose percentage of a person since the result of each bet on different games is independent to each other.

I think the only repercussions on playing multiple games is that the players mind might not be properly manage bankroll since he has different games to think but if the player can play one at time these games then I don’t see any difference playing one game alone or differently games but one at a time since all of them is just based on luck.

Gambling is based on luck for real but that doesn't mean you should be dividing your attention into poker, soccer, horse racing, or roulette all at once, you need to choose a side and learn everything you can about the game. This is the mistake that many gamblers are making, they believe since it's all about luck they should expand the possibility to get lucky and it always end up badly for them.

It's no doubt that Poker for example is all about been cunning, logical and deception to gain power over your opponent, it's called upper advantage, this is way different from games like Blackjack, roulette or Slots.

If a gambler has enough free time and money, then why shouldn’t he play everything? It seems to me that the mathematical chances will be the same even if he plays dice for 10 hours or different gambling games every hour (it is clear that the casino advantage is slightly different everywhere, but the general meaning does not change) for 10 hours.
The most important thing is to have fun, there is no winning strategy (even in poker).

Well, if it's casino-based games like Keno, Plinko, Dice, and Limbo, there's no such thing as strategy there. But, when it comes to poker we must think twice about it. There are a lot of professionals in this gambling game and they are not fooling around, they are good at what they do and they study it very well to analyze every possible situation they will bump into.
It requires strategy, knowing the game, reading your opponent, and loads of experience to be a pro in that game. And yes I believe jumping from one game to another without knowledge about it is suicide, we are just giving away our money without even thinking ahead.
Sports betting has the same concept, without knowledge about the game we are like blind men betting for a team or a player that we know nothing about.

Most people know that and there are quite a few winners in poker that when they want to take a break they get into slot machines for example and they learn the hard way that is much different than playing poker as most of the times you lose money in these type of games.There are also people who are great at sport betting but that are also greedy as greediness is in our human nature and they get to play other luck games like roulette or dice when they want to "take a break" from sport betting.If you are involved in gambling no matter which strategy you use in the end you will be on the losing side.

I don't know how you came to the conclusion that gambling is all about luck. I don't seem to agree with this because luck cannot take the place of risk management, skill and others. Luck is just a factor but not all there is to gambling. If you a strategy, you can actually make good winnings and you don't necessarily have to rely on luck to win. There is no logic that can explain that the multimillion dollar gambling industry is entirely governed by luck.

The multimillion dollar gambling industry are growing all because they make money from people than people make money from them. Games played are in a way the gambling industries are favoured than gamblers. There are some strategies that can be used to gamble, but that does not mean gambling is not still about luck. Because you have risk management, that does not mean the little amount of money used to gamble is not luck if you win.

Every gambler has their own views so I still respect your perspective on poker. I like the game of poker, especially having great opponents. Playing at one table is very fun. Talking about winning and losing strategies depends on the person's goal of gambling, whether it's for money. or just looking for entertainment and having fun.

I personally always enjoy any game but sometimes more in sports betting although sometimes I play some casino games and poker but it's all to fill my free time waiting for the sporting event in question, so I think we all have different views on that, I gambling doesn't think about making a strategy to win, gambling is just for entertainment, winning is a bonus for me Wink

Playing poker and intentionally losing is one thing. Playing any other game and intentionally losing does not really get you anywhere. Yes you can say that you are playing and you are putting the odds in your favor by losing intentionally...but that is just a fallacy. In rare circumstances will this actually help you, it's nothing but belief. Even in poker, faking your skill level by losing will only get you so far and the facade can only be kept up for so long before smarter players realize what you are doing.

Perhaps some people haven't matured enough to realize this, and they might still be in the phase of exploration, searching for their niche and the gambling game they enjoy the most. I believe that once they discover a game that piques their interest and offers rewards, that's when they'll dedicate their time to mastering the finer aspects of games like blackjack, poker, or sports betting.

Just as with acquiring any other skill, one needs to explore, find what sparks their interest, and then work on becoming proficient at it.

I am not a fan of most of the games you mentioned here and I even find it very difficulty to cope with those games except sport betting, at least I have been giving my attention to that area and I can easily know how it works and the little tricks behind them, although not that I frequently win but I can bear it in mind that my winning are luck based one. So what you said is actually right most people don't know where to channel their skills or attention rather being diversifying in most of the games to see whether they could hit winning one day as they said gambling is a game of luck.

The only game I do not know how to play among the ones that you mentioned is poker and it is the only one that I can not go for. I can go for the rest and other games. There is nothing hard about those games and everything are luck. But I prefer casino games than sport that have low odd to casino games.
