You know how sneaky luck is, right? It's like trying to hold water in your hands. Luckily, luck isn't based on a magic formula. You have to rely on luck, and luck is a very unpredictable thing. Probability is exactly what you said; it's just a set of numbers that represent the chances of something happening. Those "winning strategies"? Somewhat of a dream they are
Yes, each player has a story. Their wins and losses don't affect anyone else's journey. Trying to get lucky like someone else? That's pointless. There is a lot of uncertainty in the odds, and the house always has a slight advantage. As an alternative to fighting that, why not go in knowing that? As you play, be smart and aware, and enjoy the ride for what it is
Yeah, that's the thing.
Probability will do its thing, and give winnings to a random small amount of people.
Those people will come up with stories about why their won. Maybe one started to gamble that day, other decided it was his last one, another one found the ticket on the street...
It doesn't matter. People will make up reasons why they won, when in reality it was just pure chance, aka luck.
