For me, you still have a superstitious thing in your life, especially in gambling that you said you are blowing on the dice. Back then you are a child what are you thinking before you blow on the dice? Because if you are wishing/ or telling the dice that it will roll according to your plan for me, its a belief. There's no wrong in believing in something that most ppl said is an irrational belief, but you know that something is missing if you don't do that, right? Because before it becomes your habit, you believe that move/ trick will be effective.  Smiley
Think that it will be extremely difficult to see anyone that does not have or believe in superstition in any region that they might have come from. We all believe it in one way or the other whether it works or not just as we believe in magic when we see it.
 
I always believed in some certain colors to be worn to a casino houses and sincerely it has really played out fine, red is a great color for me and it brings great luck, just like we know that mosquito likes some colors. I cannot play games without having this color on otherwise I would be preparing for loses and there are other players that have other superstitious beliefs that also work for them.

superstition Undecided I don't believe that at all, since I was little I didn't believe in superstition
I still remember when my little friends bought bracelets, necklaces or rings to smooth the test scores
I didn't care what they did, but my exam scores were higher than theirs
I don't believe in superstition, I only believe in luck, experience, and hard work.
Exactly! This kind of situation does happen also to me where people around me do have those kind of charms on everything they do tend to do.

In the end they do still have the same outcome which is not really good compared to mine.Believing too much into these things aren't really that nice
since you would rely and being confident on being had of it but you forgot to do hardwork instead.

I believe in doing the Right things and getting the reward. There is no such thing as superstition because it's not a reality and in most cases those who believe in superstition always end up being disappointed. I had one friend that believes in wearing a particular color to gamble because it attracts luck, it always worked coincidentally but he was disappointed the day he decided to play with big amount of money.

That's just the truth man. Most of them their beliefs are just theories with proofs, pure coincidence. You can only say you're lucky in some games like dice and roulette, but you can't apply luck and superstitions to sports betting and poker.
I wonder if there are superstitions on trading too, haha, that would be funny alot.

I'm not superstitious at all and never have been. There's so many superstitious things my parents and grandparents used to do like they would say that a black cat crossing the road is bad luck or that you shouldn't talk about bad things that could happen to you or someone else because these things tend to come true.

Probably the only thing that I do could be called superstitious in gambling is blowing on dice. I picked it up as a child and used to do it whenever I played board games and it stuck with me. Now I still do it but it's more of a habit than a superstition.

First of gambling games it is superstitious idea only. Investors believe that and investing on one game to make the money and that is way they can make the money when it goes positive on their side.
If that goes negative they will feel that is nightmare and say that as bad luck.

It depends on whether you're asking about my superstitions in general or in gambling. My most common general superstition is that karma comes back. If you do something bad in life it's going to hit you back one day. In gambling I usually feel that some places or people might be jinxed so I don't play in places where I heard or saw my friends lose money and I don't follow the bets and advices of people who lost a lot. I try to play on machines and at tables when I know someone had won. I don't pray before playing and I don't have a routine like some gamblers.
I have always hated superstitions and in most cases I see those believing in it as dumb people. How can anyone believe you have to play on a table of a previous winner in order to also become a winner, it sounds really absurd to me sincerely.

Everyone has their own belief I guess, but in my case, I feel I have someone watching me when I am gambling.
It seems like I have more energy to win when someone is cheering me while I am playing, I just observe it but most of the time I just gambled alone.

We are in the same ship on this one but I've seen alot of people that decides not to share their picks with someone. They believe if they do that, the game would lose.
I love when two or more people analyze prediction together.
Maybe it is a team that was formed accidentally when betting, but however someone does have their own way and about superstition maybe not everyone is aware of it, because when we gamble there is at least one feeling that will make the heart beat more and they think it is a adrenaline rush. But believe it or not, I feel if it's a part of superstition itself which then increases adrenaline when betting because of anxiety and an expectation has become one when betting.

According to my experience during gambling i was never attempts to linked my gambling results to superstitions things and i consider for simple things during gambling that if i'm lost then it's not more than bad luck but if i had won i think i'm just lucky at that time but indeed some of gamblers always believe in superstitions even they have lucky days or bad days to gamble and usually they will avoid gamble in the days which they considers it's called bad days

Initially we all think like that same way. That it's all dependent on luck (which it actually is). But as we progress on it, we try to find patters and try to link it to our behavior. Human minds are created itself in a way that it tries to find patterns in everything, a cause for any happening, which led to science. And that pattern soon develops into superstition beliefs because gambling is really a random variable.
Winning in gambling is pure luck. Maybe we could (accidentally) that our superstition runs within today but never to think that it will run through all the days coming. I believe everyone has their own superstitions belief, not only a reason because we are in gambling but because of our everyday's life.
It sometimes helps as for better but not in a way that we will totally depend on this for this sake. If that superstition gives you luck, then you're lucky enough to have it but don't bother to share it cause somehow it never works to others.

I have to say I'm not a supersticious person, for real, I don't have any kind of superstition, even in gambling  Grin

I only follow the logic and math to try to maximize my chances of profits, but no superstition here

Following your logic does make senses and it is a must while you are gambling, but math? What kind of math you are using to maximize your chance of profit and in what kind of games you use the math?
IMO, gambling is not about math. Indeed probability does exist but there is no exact formula that you can use as the result based on your luck especially if you are playing luck based gambling games.
Superstitions on other side, many people believe in this thing but I'm not one of those people. Lets say someone believe that by wearing specific color of shirt will give him more luck, for me it is just like a coincidence instead of superstition.

You must be a serious gambler to analyze gambling because almost all the gamblers I know they just depend on luck and on their own superstitions including me. I do believe that if you play happy you will earn more money and I don’t use the money that not comes from my hard work because I think it will just fade away since its not mine. Well, nothing to lose if you believe on something just keep in mind that you must still play without greed.

Logical thinking. in my opinion is quite important for us if you want to gamble. and especially in my country gambling is often associated with superstition. bulshit with that. we must be able to see based on calculations which in my opinion are very clear to be able to gamble.strategy is also very important besides mathematical calculations

There’s nothing special in superstition besides it’s some kind of unrelated things when we are in gambling,but for some people this gives them positivity so yes indeed this helps others

This should how people do treat gambling for you not on having those beliefs because it will just trigger out your emotions since you do expect or force out that it should really be the outcome.

Come to think that luck do always matter on gambling and its impossible for it to be affected by those beliefs.It isn't bad though as long you do know how to control up yourself.
There were lots of people whom do believe on such matter.
If you ask me, luck is the only thing that matters. Gambling revolves around this one factor only. Though you will come across people having some tricks under their sleeves, web is full of such content but nothing works out. We can never ever learn to control our fate. I am not in favor of playing gambling. It involves the risk of losing money and the wins can make players addictive.

I know about superstitions but I'd never think that it helps us when we are in gambling. It actually there is no wrong of having such beliefs but I don't feel that we can have such assurance of bringing us luck. It somehow it could be helpful in other ways but not in gambling.

Anyway, I give respect to those who use this one. If this gives them luck then, it will be good for them but for me, it surely won't work cause I don't even give trust with.
It doesn't really work because nothing on this world can able to influence your luck chance as a gambler.If there were people

who do able to do such thing then they are definitely rich as of this moment.People do really tied up into things which isn't supposed to be
tied up.They do easily believe when someone do told them or just simply a part of their culture.Well as you said we should really respect
it but they should really minimize on believing into these things.
Nothing can control luck. No one can claim to have the skills of ruling one’s own luck. If this was possible, the world would have at least one example so far. Gambling is all about fate. There are no skills required to win a gambling game. If it was the case, then obviously gamblers would have attained them. Superstitions also do not work the same way every time as its believers expect them to be.
