Topic: What Aspect of Sports Betting or Casino Gambling Posed a Challenge for You? (Read 350 times)

This is strategy that really attracts the interest of every gambler because if you look at professional gamblers who use the martingale strategy, they will succeed in getting big wins and can minimize losses because the more bets they use, the more they win and the bigger their wins.
But in reality it is not as easy as we imagine and we see in several broadcasts or stories of other gamblers when using the martingale strategy, this strategy requires lot of money and of course every gambler must really prepare themselves mentally quite strongly.
There are surprises that may make gamblers feel emotionally challenged but also sense of doubt when they only suffer defeat, in the martingale strategy you have to forget about defeat until you actually win.
This is usually often said to be the strategy of rich gamblers or professional gamblers who are able to have large balances in each gambling session, new gamblers or beginners when trying to use martingale then I'm sure they will get down and decide to stop and this is where losses actually occur without there is chance to come back.
In mathematical calculations, the Martingale strategy works by multiplying the amount of money in each bet and when you win, the calculation of the winning amount will cover all the losses that occurred from the start.
But this is not recommended and is not worth forcing on novice gamblers who do not have the ability, ability in the sense of sufficient capital and strong mentality to be able to accept every loss that occurs.

In this thread I already talked about how difficult it was in my first days making sports bets, mainly because I didn't understand anything about over and under goals and it was much more difficult to understand about the Asian market, so I read but didn't understand anything, I started watching videos to be able to understand and it took me a long time to understand, but my biggest difficulty was not in sports betting, but in casino games. my first and only casino game that I played was the plinko game, as I wanted to try some casino game, so I chose the first game I saw, which in this case was the plinko game. I joined the plinko game and I was wondering: how the hell am I going to play this?

I saw a lot of balls, numbers and I didn't know anything, I didn't even know how to increase the multiplier, I just clicked on the start button and watched the ball fall, but I didn't understand anything about when I would be considered the winner. and why and when and that I would lose. I just looked at the ball and saw my balance, I did this for 5 hours and even then I didn't understand anything, all I knew was to step on start, look at the ball and look at my balance, I managed to make it 3x my balance initially, but then I lost everything, that day I told myself that I would no longer play gambling games that depend on luck because I saw that the person even without knowing how the game works, spends hours playing and will lose everything because there is no strategy in those games, everything depends on luck there, so for me it was just playing in that one and I gave up

Trial and errors approach of course but we cant really be able to avoid on not to peek into those other sources if you have plans on trying out to learn up something on which we know that
everything could really be known and could really be that obtain when you do tend to make out some research but ofcourse it would really be just that depending into your effort
on which not all would really be that mindful when it comes into this manner. Sports betting or casino gambling then it would really be just that your own choice on which one you would really be dealing off with. We do know that each person would really be having that different approach when it comes to things on which there are ones who do really love sports betting and there are
ones who do love on dealing with casino games.

Are you referring to the frequency with which a player plays? Personally, I have always seen many ways to do things well, for sports bets, with the way of playing a game in a casino, it is known that we must be very careful, we cannot invent doing things that have to do with betting a lot and qeudanors without money, for me the first thing every player should do before playing is what I have always proclaimed here in the forum, have a budget willing to lose, but why lose? and not to win? because we have seen on many occasions that there are many players, especially players who are naughty and do not have any type of experience, who go to a casino with high amounts of money, thinking that it is worth multiplying those amounts by 2 or 3 or 4 There may be a very big mistake, because we are the people who must be clear that things should not be Done that way , things in the casino must be seen from the point of view closest to realizing that the casino is a place where you have the house advantage.

When a player Realizes this and Understands that his chances of Winning in a casino are those that should be taken Advantage of and withdrawn, then I believe that a player is mature when he knows that his chances are those, then only that is when a player You know what you are doing , you Know that the casino system is not a gift, nor is it an NGO. Nor does the casino have the responsibility to give you funding, and that is what Happens to most Novice players , it is a very big mistake. common and that is always seen , so what I find a challenge is that sports bets Differ from casino games , Which is debatable other than saying that in the long Term making sports bets one can come out with profit, and in a casino things are different, because the Advantage of chaos is always greater.

I think that one of the most common problems that new gamblers face is that they “invent” Martingale. This strategy is simple, intuitive and seems obviously winning (although it is losing), so those who do not understand the issue like to use it. I started with this too 
Naturally, after a series of wins, I received a big loss and ended it there. Thank God I was smart enough not to continue playing mindlessly but to study the mathematics of the question (now it looks simple, but in those days I didn’t even have access to the Internet since it was not yet widespread). I think it’s much easier for modern beginners in gambling because a single information space allows you to quickly learn about your mistakes and understand them.

Yes, I found the casino site by accident and played the games too randomly so I could only try pressing from the link on the game. Yes, it was a trial because I didn't really know the game but it was a lot of fun because I was able to discover a lot of things in the casino. I often played the Dice game before slots were famous or didn't even exist and Dice was a popular game in its time. Even though Dice is probably the one I play most often, I never get bored. However, because there were slot games after that, I switched to slot games. I think all gambling games are interesting to try, but what we have to remember is that we have to be careful in allocating funds for gambling.

It is very difficult to win both Dice and slot games because you are right that these games are purely random. We can only hope that luck will come beside us to help us win. But if we are unlucky, we should not try to recover the loss because it can cost a lot of money.

I will talk about sports betting because it was one of my first experiences in gambling as a hobby. I remember that I registered an account on the famous Planetwin365 website and I thought that I would find the basic win / draw / loss options, but I was surprised by the huge number of options available. For a long time I could not understand what handicap meant since the site was only available in foreign languages and there was no one to help me understand. I can confirm that I was among the few in my city who used that site.

The other problem I faced was the method of calculating the bonus because the site’s algorithm was very complex and I had to spend a long time practicing before I understood all the details.

Honestly the biggest aspect that was a challenge for me was how to fund the account, and how bitcoin came in and changed the game when it comes to how you do so.  But to answer your questions, I think just learning the basic principals of what covering the spread meant, what the over/under line was, as well as learning about how the money line worked.  It really didn't take much time to learn and I was on my way.

It's the different types of handicaps and also over/under that posed a little challenge to me. It's basically searching and reading articles on the internet then testing them out to the sports books. The bet builder also had me spent a bit of time learning.

It is mostly in the betting side of things. At first, I don't understand how a parlay works. I know that it multiplies the odds of the games you add to it, but didn't know that you can't put two different betting lines of the same game as bets. It took me a while to figure it out, and I mostly got the answers here on bitcointalk upon reading some of the users' inputs on parlays and betting in general. It has been my favorite type of bet ever since, and I've been trying to add more to the legs of my bet and see how far can I go with parlays.

Starting from someone's YouTube video where he won playing gambling, I was interested in trying it. At that time I preferred playing poker against other players, but after getting to know other casino games such as dice and limbo, I played it just to fill my free time, because usually I playing casino gambling just to wait for the football event to start. I have enjoyed gambling on sports betting for a long time.

So I stick to my main gambling which is sports betting from offline to online, so I find more games in some time and we know that every casino always provides many games from time to time just to entertain their many gamblers, but games that are not I've never been touched to play slot games, because I'm more interested in games full of strategy than full luck like slots. 

The thing I struggled most was Texas Holdem Poker. We have local versions of that poker and the rules are slightly different and when there's a competitor who is better informed than yourself, you stand no chance in poker. For other sports you can try and learn and for most it's just about luck but with poker and multiple people in the table, there are luck, strategies and reading and playing with competitors mind is very important.
For learning it, I searched on google and read the top suggested sites and wikipedia articles as I wanted to learn specific things quickly. Video are more fun and passive way to learn. Not suitable when you want to learn something quickly.

You mean you found it unexpectedly? Because when you say through trial and error, then you really have an intention or strong desire to learn it. You might be one of the OG's in the crypto gambling scene, because Dice was your first game. That is because gambling providers are not a thing yet on the past and then almost all crypto betting sites only has one game on them, and that is again, Dice. What you did is right of not wasting your time on Youtube looking for Dice videos, as all of them are just click baits and composed of referral links.

There is really no definite way on how to win in Dice since the game is purely random. We all rarely win in gambling. And spending more time on it won't make any big differences, but it can actually only make you lose more.

When I started with sports betting, I didn't know anything about over and under goals and about Asian handcap, so all I would do was just bet on the team that would win, after a long time I started researching about over and under and the Asian market and I saw that I could have had better results if I had analyzed the game and bet on the market that was more advantageous, because what I was doing was just analyzing which team was stronger than the other and which one would win. but I also didn't focus on analyzing how many goals each team conceded and how many goals each team managed to score, it's funny that at that time even when I researched the over and under and the Asian handcap

when I made an over or under bet, I lost a lot because I had problems being able to differentiate what was over 2.5 or over 3.5, I always forgot how many goals I had to score, I had to learn from experience, every time I did I lost my bet, then I memorized it and in the next game I already knew how to do it and didn't make the same mistakes. Today I even laugh every time I see the over and under goals market and the Asian handcap market. sports betting has a lot in just one game, I confess that the corners and cards market are the ones that gave me the most headaches and losses, it took me a long time to understand and betting on that card market is not easy

When there is something that I don't know, the internet is accessible, and can visit any website to know what are those challenges that I've met. But there's none that I need to.

Me either. That's why even before the need to search them through the web. When I have also read the comments of the other members here, that's making me understand something too quick. But any resource is valid to determine the answer that you're looking for. A lot of information can easily be accessed and used as long as they're on the free public and that's why it's like a library of gambling terms and rules with a few keywords and they'll appear as results.

For me slots actually pose a challenge to understand but I don't think it's just me being inexperienced with them.

I hear terms like RTP and multiplier and have to think that these mean very little when the slot game doesn't ever tell you your win chances, or the possibilities of hitting certain multipliers that are advertised. The term volatility is also thrown in there to make things even more confusing and less transparent. I can't help but wonder if all this opaqueness is there on purpose of if I would be the only one caring when it comes to slots.

For these reasons I struggle to feel comfortable playing slots.

It was the false belief I had that profit could be easily made and built within time through betting on the favorite teams or athletes in a frequent basis. I remember placing bets on tennis' players who had really low odds, but were certain to win. However, as soon as the results came out, I had lost the bets and couldn't understand the reason why, since they were "safe bets"...

Reading comments on the internet, and especially on this forum, took me to the conclusion I couldn't easily win on long run, although there were also many posts on this forum from gamblers who advised sports betting as a consistent method of gambling that could guarantee profitability along the time, unlike traditional casino's games. So, I guess trial and error was also necessary on the learnship process, because if I only took third party opinions into consideration, I would be really in doubt about who was right and wrong. I had to try by myself.

It was a slot game that I didn't understand when I started playing slots. I still don't know slot games, but after seeing how to play them via videos on YouTube or those shared by friends here, I finally understood and started to get to know them better. Slot games are not difficult and are actually very easy to play. But what you have to be careful of is that slot games can make someone forget their time and money because there are many challenges. What this means is that we often experience loss when playing slots, so this will make us curious about why we never win. And finally, we will deposit some money to try it again and again. That's what happened to me when I started playing slots, and it was a bad memory because I lost a lot of money at that time.
