Yes, that's what happens because luck chooses people who deserve luck so that people can win the gambling game. We can only enjoy gambling properly as entertainment and not chase victory or try hard to win. That will be difficult to do because we will only get problem after problem that we may not be able to face and everything will be our fault for trying to chase victory. So it is true that even if we are experts in mathematics, we will find it difficult to beat the house because the casino is their business and we are just players trying to get entertainment from gambling.

It is difficult to beat the bookie because they own the business but even so, we as gamblers, can indeed win a little compared to the bookie. After getting that win, we should immediately leave the casino so that there is no desire to chase bigger wins, which will not be easy for us as gamblers. Only with luck can we beat the casino, but we won't always be able to get lucky because luck will always move to other people, and we don't know when it will be our turn to get lucky.

Those of us who don't know when we can get lucky can only keep trying, but we also have to know how long we try in one day because our goal in gambling is not to get lucky but just to have fun. Let luck come to us while we just need to enjoy gambling and if today we are not lucky, we must immediately stop gambling before we end up spending all the money. That's why we must always use clear boundaries when playing gambling so that we are not influenced by anything we see while gambling so that we can stop gambling whenever we want. And after luck comes to us and helps us win the gambling game, it is better for us to stop immediately for a moment. That will save us from using the winnings and the capital we have from wanting to continue gambling because we hope for bigger wins.

Yes, I agree, in some games like poker for example, math can help you a lot. I have also heard about many poker personalities who are very good at math. Poker is actually based on math, there's even term "poker math". Poker is all about probability and statistics, so if you're good at math you should be able to quickly calculate the probability of your hand. The only thing which makes poker math harder is bluffing. So if you're good at bluffing you can potentially win a person who is good at math.     

So you shouldn't really be stopping? thats something a dangerous kind of principle because having this kind of mindset will actually make yourself that desperate and since you had fixed up yourself
in terms of mindset then you would eventually be playing further more until you would be losing it all and this is really that bad. When it comes on to math then there are really some connections in speaking about probabilities or some sort but keeping yourself that mindful even on those details wont really be that something to be relevant considering that luck would really be always a
great factor when it comes to this or gambling itself. This is why it would be ideal that you shouldn't really be bothering yourself with those numbers.

Talking about luck, it comes to those players who keep on betting.  Once a player stop betting, they will never experience on getting lucky and winning huge amount.  A person does not need to sacrifice all his money for that lucky experience.  If the person is patient and smart enough, he can experience lucky winning if he doesn't quit his gambling activity.  A person just need to have self awarenes, bankroll management and time management all in all to minimize his gambling losses.

About math, the chance of winning can be calculated but when the winning will occur will never be determined.  Those who said they calculated the next spin for winning, is just exaggeraton to get people's attention especially when their means of living is through streaming or publications.

How does math help you with dice games? I am not very well versed in dice games, but are you talking about the simple versions that ask you to pick high or low and stuff like that?

I agree with you that certain mathematical basics and statistics specifically can help you with making decisions in some games. Poker is one of those examples. But since there are so many resources now that everyone can access for free, I think multiplayer games rarely give you an edge in most of the games because most of the people are aware of most of the important rules/mathematical laws.

Your opinion is absolutely correct, anyone will get that luck and no one knows when that luck will come, therefore we gamblers try as hard as possible to maintain good behavior not to keep gambling to get that luck, because if we are too If we gamble a lot, we will experience big losses and it will be difficult for us to win. Limiting the amount of betting money is a good step to use in gambling when we lose, the money won't be too much and we won't be stressed thinking about the loss. And I agree with you that when we win at gambling we should stop for a moment, think about going home and gambling another day we can do it again.

Luck indeed is often seen as a random and unpredictable force, and attributing success solely to luck can be misleading. The notion that luck comes to the right and chosen people adds an element of destiny to the concept. Emphasizing the enjoyment of gambling rather than solely focusing on winning is a healthy approach. Acknowledging that luck cannot be copied or predicted reinforces the idea that outcomes in gambling are not entirely within one's control.

The caution against expecting to beat the dealer easily, even with expertise in mathematics or the use of artificial intelligence, is reasonable. Casinos are designed with sophisticated systems to maintain an edge, making it challenging for individual strategies to consistently outperform. Maybe it's true that some people may become millionaires through gambling, but it's just a rare thing to happen. Gambling should be approached with a realistic understanding of the odds, and people should avoid relying solely on luck to achieve financial success.

Although luck can't be generated or copied, can't our decisions and actions prepare us for lucky opportunities? Understanding chances and probabilities in gambling is about making informed judgments, not beating luck. Is blind betting different from strategic wagering? We can't control luck, but our approach can affect it. When gambling is fun, human psychology is at play. Aren't individuals drawn to the thrill and dopamine rush? However, this is two-sided. Excitement can cause addiction, affecting mental and physical health. Isn't society accountable for promoting responsible gambling? While becoming a millionaire is appealing, the reality is often brutal. Shouldn't we emphasize risk awareness and responsible gambling?

Although a $1 bet turning into $300 shows how unpredictable gambling can be, its not a plan; its just a one-time event. There is some truth to the saying "lucky people win some decisions."

You're right, a lot of web videos arent what they seem to be, misleading people. Their information is not reliable for learning how gambling works. Although its okay to dislike math-based games, its important to remember that even easy games like slots and dices are based on math.

Gambling should be approached responsibly. But keeping gambling until luck changes is a risky idea. Its important to define boundaries for both time and money. Theres more to gambling than just winning. Its fun. Doing it should stay a fun, controlled pastime and not a way to make money.

If luck is not on your side there is nothing you can do about it, math expert or not you will still need to get lucky, everyone has luck in them but we don't know when we will be lucky, so it's better to keep gambling with small amount until your luck comes around, I have use $1 bet to make $300 and it wasn't long ago, I got lucky, but I have lost few $10 on multiple rounds with no single win, gambling is what it is, if you accept this fact you will have no problem with gambling.

Some people start gambling because they watch some videos online but the reality is they are fake, those videos show how gamblers hit more bonus and you will think its the same but on getting into gambling you will get opposite result, do not allow anything or anyone to talk nonsense onto your head, come up with your own safest strategy.

I am not very good at math and I don't even need to because it's not my thing, and I hate games that have something to do with math, this is why I am bad at solving puzzles at times but not all, I prefer the simplest games on online casinos, like completing a mission, or rolling dices, or slots.

Luck cannot be sought because luck comes to the right and chosen people, that's why don't expect to get luck when gambling, let alone seeing other people lucky to get big wins, after all luck cannot be copied and that's why its arrival cannot be predicted. Playing gambling should be enjoyed, don't think too much that you can beat the dealer easily even if you are an expert in mathematics.

Everyone can feel confident that the dealer can be beaten easily using artificial intelligence or mathematics, it will not be possible because the dealer is much more likely to use something more sophisticated to win the casino, so don't expect luck and other things when gambling because it is clearly a mistake, It's true that every gambler can definitely become a millionaire, but not many of us will meet and be that lucky.

I don't know either because I never thought about how to use mathematics in gambling. Maybe mathematics is needed to calculate the percentage of luck or potential winnings they can get. But again, that's only for people who know how to use mathematics to gamble. Meanwhile, those of us who don't know should continue gambling as usual and not think too much about mathematics in gambling games.

Yes, luck will come to people who deserve it and it can indeed help people become millionaires from gambling. But we can't chase luck because we don't know when luck will come to us.

Everyone can get lucky when the time comes but we will never know when the time will come when we can get lucky. But we also can't continue gambling because that will definitely require a lot of money so it can cause us to experience a lot of losses. Maybe we can manage our gambling time along with the allocated funds that we prepare so that we don't gamble too often while we wait for our luck to come. And after luck comes, we don't need to chase it anymore because we don't know whether luck is still with us in the next round or has gone. We only need to gamble enough so as not to lose a lot of money because that is a precaution we can take.

It depends!

In some games math won't help you at all, but in others like dice or cards they will help you a lot if you're good at math.
The idea behind this advantage consists of forming a set with all possible outcomes in a game and, from this set, quantifying the results that are favorable or not in a given outcome.
When the player has all the necessary information and is able to measure this outcome of probabilities, it is possible to check the proportion between favorable or unfavorable results and compare them with other game objectives to make the best bet, bluff or know if the opponent is bluffing, and in some cases even knows exactly what is the only possible outcome of a game that apparently has not yet been revealed.

If you are interested in this, I advise you to study Pascal's triangle... it is very useful when we want to know the number of ways in which we can select a number of elements from a set that has an equal or greater amount of elements. Before using mathematics to play, you need to know this important mathematical tool.

I myself don't really understand poker gambling, because I don't have a skill base in math, so I only play slot gambling which doesn't prioritize skills just know enough and rely on luck. Also I have no interest in poker for some reason I prefer slot gambling, maybe also because of the absence of skills in math.

It is possible to play slot gambling by many people, not knowing gender, especially with the current online slot gambling that is busy, everyone can play it men, women, parents, young people can all play it. Unlike poker, where they can play it but if they don't have math skills it will make them likely to lose.

Jim Simons is more of an investor rather than a gambler. He earned his billions with his investments and hedge funds. He only became a big baller when he already got the dough to back most of his predictions, so his education heavily propelled his success and not just luck that most gambling games require in order to beat it. He used computing and statistics to his advantage to get where he is right now, and if it isn't dictated by his education then I don't know what is.

Chris, on the other hand, is really an adept when it comes to poker. He's also a computer scientist so you can tell that his education also backed his success to what he does.

I believe this is more on card counting, if a person is able to count cards that is drawn and calculate the card in the hands of people, he might be able to somehow know the probability of the next card.  Expert card counter are often shut off in poker games in casino because they are able to win everytime.

I do not know what is the relevant of school in this topic but saying 96% of what we learned can't be used in real world is just exaggeration.  The history, math, theories are often used to produce another inventions and new creations, it is also reference for innovations so without school that teaches the foundation of knowledge specifically mathematics a person will have difficulty in dealing with his daily activities, besides career are often based on what we have learned during the college years and our specialization. 

The poker gambling was based on the math and the probability of cards,So one can easily fix the result using their math knowledge.The gambler also accept the thing,the many players was in the same game and we don't know the exact cards in their hand.Due to shuffle of the cards,one can have 4-5 jokers and with the Rummy he can make the show.

But the game we are laying in the online,So some gambler will blame the website for the short win by the particular person play along with them.This was the one of the biggest criticisms in the black jack and any poker game based gambling site.But the gambler are not ready to do the wide mindset of the game.So they will understand the winner of the poker game based on the card given to them and not gambling site make the fake win in the gambling sites.

I used to do football betting and let me tell you how I select a team that will win. I go through both teams previous matches, look at their percentage of wins and losses generally, then I check if both teams have met before, I also take into consideration who won. With all that information, I can predict who will likely win the match without necessarily knowing who the team members are. So, isn’t that statistics? Thats calculation mate. Yes, the team with the better stats may not win, but that calculation is better and give you a better ground that someone saying it’s entirely luck and blindly chooses any of the two teams just because it’s “50/50”

In football matches like this, I would put math on the back burner. In order to beat the analytical data of the computer that issued the odds for a football team to win, we must know everything about each player and statistical indicators so thoroughly that we can see the inefficiencies of the odds set. This is theoretical, but practically we cannot know about the hidden injuries or mood of each player. Therefore, we can only get closer, but never over a long period of time will we beat the statistical machine that gives odds for a team to win.

I hope you have been able to win some jackpots from then you got to know to this time around.  

So maybe he probably has such gift to do whatever calculation on the game he is gambling. Moreover, math is not new to gambling. Even in soccer, when you analyse the games, take some analysis like head to head, last five matches, away and home performance etc, I believe it is math when you come to soccer also if you do all that because you are going to be careful and taking calculation of the team performance home and away, both for the team and their opponents.
