Topic: Type of gambling and Intelligence - page 2. (Read 674 times)

The first five are EV- games and the next three are EV+ games.

However Expected value being positive or negative does not indicate the level of intelligence of a person.

In fact that intelligent person will not be the gambler but be the casino in order to make money.

Maybe you are indicating that skill based betting means a person is intelligent - it may or may not be correct. They have the skills no doubt but luck is always there and your intelligence has no factoring on this. If that was the case then intelligent minds would have beaten every casino out there.

I have tried and played all the types of gambling games that you mentioned, of course they all have their own challenges for players, of course everyone's tastes are different and varied, gambling has its own breadth for players.

However, even though I have tried playing all these types of games, currently I am active in sports and roulette games, I pending the others first, didn't benefit me much, but the two games I mentioned above, I saw good results.

The point is: whatever type of game, basically betting has comfort and benefits for the player and the knowledge they have based on the experience we often play.

I don't make counts to such credit where I bets and it proves me with level of how intelligence I am or how close I was almost to the right bet (winning).
I can only acknowledge that only when I wins and my level of intelligence was rated so surely, I will definitely follow the same lines hoping that would be//the winning tracks else I know the online casino games are shuffled and programmed in a random and automatically reconfiguring where there is no guarantee replacement or error correction from your previous prediction to your current bets at when you rebets.

No. Many intelligent people do like playing simple games too just like what you do. One reason is because they don't want the stress of thinking too much, especially those who work on office jobs where most of what they do is think. They just want their rest and enjoy gambling without stressing their brains more.
There are sports gamblers too that like it simple. Some will do their research (like me) while some just want to bet with their favorite teams but we cannot they are fools or it was an unwise bet. It depends on the reason why a gambler is playing. Some just want to relax while others want to make money as badly as they can to feel the glory.
I think there are more sports gamblers, especially in the football game who bet only for their team because they are hardcore fans. They won't even think about it but we cannot say their intelligence is low.
We cannot judge anyone just because of what game they play in gambling. It's not right because we have different reasons why we gamble.

Same here! I got your point, Even if I always want to play easy gambling slots and easier games doesn't mean I'm less intelligent than those people who prefers to play hard games. It's just that, I prefer the easier one because I don't want to think more because I'm doing gambling just for fun and to relax, not to be stress and problematic by thinking more about the game, So it really depends and we can't judge a persons intelligence limitation based on their preferred activities and complexity of their chosen gambling.

I don't think so. It depends on which gambling games people want to play. A person's level of intelligence does not determine the type of gambling game, but to play it, a person must understand how to play it. If they play poker, blackjack, or baccarat, it is not that someone's level of intelligence is higher in playing the gambling game, but based on their level of understanding of how to play it. Likewise, if they play slot games, keno, dice, or gambling games that are easy to play, each person will determine which gambling game they want to play. Some people really understand the game of poker but like playing dice or slots, and it's based on something other than their level of intelligence.

I'm a gambler who always choose easier games, like rolling and saw results in just a single click, does it make me less intelligent? So if i try poker which needs more skills do i become more intelligent? It doesn't nake sense, especially it does not give you higher probability to win.

Hmm. That's quite the question. Honestly, I say that games involving you having an upper hand against the house or the opponent, like card games, for instance, require more brain power and therefore benefits from having smarter people who play their games. Of course just cause you down poker tables doesn't necessarily mean you're the next incarnation of Einstein or whatever, but compared to games like slots who doesn't really ask for anything from the user besides the bet they make, these games certainly have that effect of making you feel like you're intelligent or whatever.

Then again, I only ever care about making sure that you don't blow your whole money away. You can be the smartest blackjack player on the planet but if you don't have limits placed upon your bankroll, you're bound to lose everything anyway.

I don't think many will agree with your thread, intelligence has nothing to do with your choice of game, and no study on this will validate your opinion, It is every player's preference whether you're a genius or less intelligent you can pick any game you want, no games were created for specific intelligence, the casino will not discriminate their players by classifying their games.
But it has something to do with the player's level of interest some players want a game where they can do analysis, and some players prefer luck-based games and try their luck.
I like sports betting especially boxing because I love watching and analyzing boxers but that does not mean I am better than my engineer friend who prefers just to play dice without much analyzing involved.

Well, I often play Baccarat and it's a game based on luck so I don't think intelligence has something to do on this game. Unless you're playing a skill based games, because strategy and knowledge could work to win (though not guaranteed still).

Therefore if you're thinking carefully trying to figure out the strategy to use to be able to win. Then I think we can somehow say that it has something to do with intelligence. Nevertheless, the choice of games are not the basis if you're smart or if you are your using your brain to have an advantage for the specific game. Gambling is existing to entertain ourselves and be lucky to make money. The games are not the basis to know the player's intelligence.

I highly doubt that, emotional maturity is a lot more important than the intelligence here because the intelligent person would think about all the ways they can game the market and do what they must and should win the game, and we all know that they are not going to, and that's not how any of this works, while the emotionally mature person would know that there is no way that they could, the game is "rigged" in the sense that all casino games are titled in favour of the casino, so they will only gamble for fun and not for money.

So, this is one of those days where being smart will not help you and should not be something that would cater bigger than you think. I get that it is not going to be easy to handle, but you have to see it for what it is.

Yes maybe if we play the game like calculating numbers, strategy, puzzle, and involves memory because the kind of that, like poker, sports betting and etc are need careful calculation to win the game. But for the game just pushing the button and rolling, I think it does not show how smart that people are because it's just for fun, and lots of luck.
but there are also the people who may be even more extreme by calculating a fair play game like dice, slot, and etc which I think is not included in that because we know it seems impossible to calculate the spin number because the probability calculation is always fifty fifty.

On the time that you've been playing with luck based games for long time, sooner or later on the time that you do get bored then this is the moment you would be considering on taking up some strategic based games like sports betting and card game. Yes, this would really be requiring that kind of intellegence since every bet you do make would really be requiring that skills and awareness
on the sports or on the hands that you do have. Actual dealing and your perceptive approach on things will really be telling you whether you should really be making out some move or not.
Or making some selection basing up on the research that you had made. You cant really just that make yourself that do make out winnings without those considerations not unless if you do just
bet on your guts and intuition.

if you are into these games for so long, definitely, you will acquire the level of expertise higher above than anyone else. but it would take years and years to learn tricks, tips and strategies that can improve the outcome of your games. also, you will find out that you will form certain passion on a particular game if you are going to be dedicated with it.

sure, intelligence is needed in some particular games like poker but such intelligence is not learned overnight. as said, it would take years to have very good grasp of what you're doing.

This is the thing that you develop over time, and it could be a good combination of skills and your IQ level.
We know these games requires analysis and deeply understanding about the concept and you intelligence will be tested here. Again if you are hoping for a more positive result with your bet, then keep on learning and have a strategy that will work. There are games that needs your best strategy in decision making and that concern your intelligence.

In slot games, the low rollers can still have chances of winning, but that won't be much like a high roller. However being a high roller in slot games isn't advisable as a gambler, because of the high rate of losses. However in a physical casino, the more you focus on playing using a specific machine, you may be able to understand how it works. Unless the casino changes the settings of the machine, the gambler would have some advantage playing on that exact machine. Some also take advantage of faulty machines, it's another method of earning big in casinos. Hence, the money a gambler will lose before he gets to understand the patterns of playing in slot, may have gotten to huge numbers. At the cost of having fun in gambling, one must be prepared to lose an enormous amount of money accumulated in losses. When the ratio of the wins and losses are matched together, the gambler ends up wondering, where is the profits.

So, to recover the losses when we've mastered the specific game, it'll still take years of winning and losing at the same time. Therefore with our level of intelligence, it's still almost the same as managing our gambling behavior. The sports players have better chances when it comes to intelligent gambling. Analysis of the history and performances of the teams helps in predicting nearly correct games. Unlike slot games, consistency in sports and following analytical news pose as advantageous tools to the gambler. Slot players only have a few strategies to follow, but someday the machine can cough out a huge win in return for the player's time and money. We'll find ourselves happy, but given time the whole money disappears back into the slot machine. While the winners are deemed intelligent, the players with good money management and self-control should also be seen as very intelligent, even when they often lose.

I do not think it shows a level of one's intelligence. However, I believes it creates the foundation for it.

when you find yourself if dire situations, your faculty of thought often awakens, you start thinking of how to crack codes and how best to avoid certain loses that appears impossible, it requires your intellect to handle but even in gambling, its designed to flaw your ability to think but also awakens it in order to make a mess of it.

If gambling was for the intelligent minds, it won't have been a business anymore, it still remains a game of variables where expectations are still randomly positioned to keep you in the dark. Hence, its not about intelligence

The gambler who play the single game will become the professional player in that game.After the gambler become the professional player,he can play the game without any difficulty.He can easy make more money from the gambling game which is the whitelist of that gambler.The gambler with less capital doesn’t understand the slot and dice game.This type of casino game more capital to win the money from the gambling site.After certain percentage of the wager,the gambler may get the chance of winning the game in the gambling site.The less capital gamblers will wager for the certain percentage and get away from the gambling site with the loss at the end.

Are you suggesting that the more a gambler plays a single game his intelligence increases in that specific game? If, yes, I think that's a great way to master the act of performing well in gambling, provided that the gambler isn't deeply into that game. Most football gamblers I've noticed don't analyze their games. They only want to see a high return on the slips and hope on luck that the teams they predicted to win, win. The low rollers don't understand what's in gambling other than trying to get rich quickly in gambling. When reviewing people's bets I hear them say they don't know some teams they added to their slip. Once the premier league has been added to the bets, the gambler looks for football competitions in random leagues, they've heard nothing about and gamble. That doesn't make any sense, although the staked money isn't that significant, but it's not worth the time.

Nonchalant gamblers don't increase their intelligence in gambling, including those who focus only on football games. So, predicting the right games with a significant amount of money can be rewarding if the player invests time in learning methods of game analysis. One reason we see gamblers who don't advance positively in gambling is the love for winning jackpots with smaller money. Looking into slots, for example, the results are quite different for consistent slot players. Because of the uniqueness of the house edge, at most we earn more observing the results of the machine. Black roulette games also prove that being interested in analyzing the results of any game, gamblers can see good results compared to losses. Thereby enjoying their gambling moments. Sometimes in Black roulette, I'd predict accurately the actual number where the ball would stop, which gives me some assurance of being an observant gambler. Though it's rare, with consistent observation gamblers can always dodge too many losses.

If it were to be by intelligence, those that will be good at gambling and also be winning are the most interllectual individual gamblers because they are exposed in educational knowledge, but things doesn't work that way in gambling, we all have equal opportunity or chances each time we are gambling, we can win or loose at any time and that's doesn't have to be determined by how intelligent we are or not.
