And most of the games I learn it directly with practice also with discussions with people who understand more without knowing that I have to read books to find out such theoretical things through reading books.
You are right, in fact it is very similar or analogous when we want to learn everything that is about btc mining, you have to have the machines and you have to be there doing things to understand the problems and their solutions, in the game things are easier to understand, only that Calmness and confidence are what are most needed, we also have to see something that is just as important, the Balance that we are willing to lose, if there are no limits in that sense I think we will be destined to lose a lot of money.
Topic: What to read about gambling? - page 2. (Read 1238 times)
Recently, a friend of mine approached me with a question about what he should read about gambling. He read a lot of specialized forums and looked at information on websites, but he was not satisfied. He started betting on sports not so long ago, but began to lose a lot and realized that he had a significant lack of theoretical knowledge. He loves books and believes that only books present knowledge systematically, and not chaotically, as on many websites. But his question stumped me. Although I have read some books on sports betting, poker and other games, I do not know what specifically to advise a beginner. What books would you recommend?
But what kind of theoretical knowledge are you addressing here when we are discussing sports betting? Yes there might be a few things that can slightly increase the odds of winning, but it is not like there is a holy bible that you can read and then be in profit as if there was a rule set that you only have to follow and all other things fall into place automatically. It remains a luck thing and it usually is a losing activity over a longer period of time no matter what theoretical knowledge you are accumulating.
There's no point of reading a book to keep up the gambling habits, like I haven't heard of such and even if it sure exist I think it's just for personal reasons. Cause what I think should be read concerning gambling is a book trying to educate early adopt gamblers to stay far from gambling addictions and thus it'll have alot effect on the individuals.
There will be always the point, reading books always gains useful thing. Even it is a small part of gambling, but reading books may lead someone to avoid addiction or bad habit in gambling. At least, people who read the guide books may have the mindset to gamble in a proper way. They probably won't gamble excessively as the people who don't understand about the nature of gambling.Well, to educate gamblers is needed. There are too many gamblers who end up with severe losses. If they know the nature of gambling and understand the proper way in gambling, they may avoid such bad cases.

I can't recommend anything modern from the books on gambling, but I can definitely say that I was greatly influenced by the books on poker that I read when I was just trying to understand how to start winning and what to do for this. I still recommend this book, even though it is old: "Super System" - Doyle Brunson. It's a pity that this legendary poker player passed away, he was always the personification of poker for me. In general, I think that such a book will never become outdated for poker and the very essence of gambling, even though there are now many video tutorials on video platforms.

And that kind of unrealistic promise made by these influencers makes the gambling industry ruin their reputations. If we take time to think deeply of what they said, the casinos spend more money than making.
They are good at manipulating minds, but experienced gamblers understand it because that is how they attract people to gamble. It is not a need to educate them as we are sure that they are aware of the situation and how gambling works. They just need to open their mind and see the reality.
Learning from our experience is a tool for us to improve.
I will agree with you that those unrealistic promise and promotion were done by those influencers who sold their reputation to the money. And as well if you just look that who were promoting unrealistic promise and promotion most of them were not from the healthy platform or healthy lives, Like I saw many of these kinds of unrealistic promise promotions from the p*rnstars and also those Influencers who have bad reputation in the past. They are good at manipulating minds, but experienced gamblers understand it because that is how they attract people to gamble. It is not a need to educate them as we are sure that they are aware of the situation and how gambling works. They just need to open their mind and see the reality.
Learning from our experience is a tool for us to improve.
However, we should not be influenced by their promises and promotions. We should have self-control so that we do not fall into any trap. And use gambling only for entertainment purposes.
Very good topic, maybe it will make many players think about the fact that they play gambling without much knowledge, they just learned or heard something and started playing, and this is clearly not enough to earn money in this difficult occupation. By the way, I also did not read any books about gambling, watched several videos on YouTube, read forums about how other players play and decided that this may be enough to be successful in gambling, but obviously this is not so, because I can not win, my bankroll is slowly decreasing.
I have nothing new to learn about gambling because the outcome of gambling runs with our luck. But we should change our mindset so that we can easily accept the results of my gambling. When it comes to real-life gamblers, research should be done to ensure that your bet is a certain amount. I don't consider gambling as a money making profession because my losses are minimal, because i don't want to bet again to get back the lost money. I want to invest my winnings in any business so that i don't get too greedy.If that is the case then why do people keep losing money while they chase those dreams of huge max wins with a good bet amount in order to have a chance to change their life, there is no other explanation that people are greedy and they still do play to chase that fishy dream of max win. If it were that simple that everybody knew that gambling can be played only for fun then there is no need to play with real money, anyone can go to the providers website and play the slot machines and other gambling games there without worrying of losing any money yet we know this is absolutely not the case. People are still attracted by those fishy dreams of a possible change of life through gambling and that is the number one motivation that keeps people coming back and trying in consecutive ways to hit it, they only lose though.
Because playing for money is excitement, and excitement for many people is pleasure. And it does not matter what the amount will be, the excitement will still be present. But in people who do not like to play for money excitement is still present, but in other games, which do not require a bet, this is the only difference, but the pleasure is received by both those and others

Hmm majority of the guides about gambling is on the internet or maybe rely on chatgpt to make an efficient way of gambling. I don't read book so I can't suggest any books that will pique your interest about gambling. well according to the internet, these are the books: https://www.gamblingnews.com/blog/gambling-books/
But personally if I will read a book, the mathematical one that explains probability, that will give you more perspective on gambling, now you can see numbers in the space because you knew how to calculate them and count your chances of winning the game. Also, add those books that talk about being financially literate, of course you need to control your space, you don't need to rely on gambling all of the time.
Well, knowledge is very important in gambling. And reading some gambling stories can be helpful in gaining ideas on what will possibly happen to us. But all of these things are nothing if we never believe them and follow their advice. For me, gambling is not all about having learned the strategies but also having learned how to control ourselves. Many gamblers are wondering why they lose despite having enough knowledge; it is because we are not lucky today. Very unfortunate that most gamblers don't understand this and their position.
Here, many of us make the first mistake, which is to consider gambling as an investment or money-generating source. And that's why we often get quickly affected by the promotions of many influencers or others on social media, who will give gambling-related signals and by following those signals, we can easily win at gambling.If we think a little deeper, it will become much clearer to us that is it really possible to win in gambling by reading signals or books? And if it was possible, do you think this industry could still sustain in the market? No, if it was really possible, then most of the online casinos would have become bankrupt and become invisible from the market.

If gambling is considered a very common thing and is done accordingly, then I do not think that there is a possibility of its having any negative effect. Gambling is a matter related to luck. That is why it is necessary to gain knowledge about how to enjoy temporary pleasure by keeping it under control and not getting too excited to win. All the gamblers who have gambled for money today have lost their wealth. Moreover, there is no specific winning strategy where one can apply it and win. If one gambles for temporary excitement, then gambling is perfect for him.
If that is the case then why do people keep losing money while they chase those dreams of huge max wins with a good bet amount in order to have a chance to change their life, there is no other explanation that people are greedy and they still do play to chase that fishy dream of max win. If it were that simple that everybody knew that gambling can be played only for fun then there is no need to play with real money, anyone can go to the providers website and play the slot machines and other gambling games there without worrying of losing any money yet we know this is absolutely not the case.

I am sure that they are gamblers who have indeed misunderstood from the start what and how gambling really is, most likely they come with a misunderstanding and maybe at first they were people who knew gambling by watching shows made by streamers who show something very tempting, but they forget that there are no significant results with just a little effort.

Yes, knowledge is important but it also depends on what type of game you are playing, for example if you are involved in a casino game then actually no matter how much knowledge you have and how good your strategy is in the end it still won't be able to affect the results at the end of the game, unless for example we are talking about sports betting which does have statistical data and standings that we can analyze to be used as a reference in making decisions and that is indeed useful for increasing the chances of winning. But on the other hand we must also understand that knowledge and skills are nothing more than tools that are only useful for getting closer to victory but do not guarantee that you will win, so it can be said that sports betting is a combination of skill and luck.
Having knowledge in gambling will help us to understanding the gambling games that we want to play so we can know what we need to do. We can prepare many things based on what we know so we can start to analyze the things that should be done. We will have more reference especially if we know where we can get more info about what we need. We can decide what is the necessary thing we need to do in any gambling games so we will not get a wrong ways and have a fun things from gambling. And yes, I agree that winning in sports betting will depends on skills and luck.One of the reasons why knowledge is quite important to have when we are involved in this type of sports betting is because besides being able to get closer to the chance of winning, it can also minimize the possibility of risk, but one important thing we must remember is that we are still required to apply limits because no matter how good the strategy you have, the possibility of defeat will always be there, because there are still many other factors such as unexpected things that can happen throughout the minutes.
There are books actually that feature about the fundamentals of gambling, like "The Mathematics of Gambling" by Edward Thorp, and "Casino Gambling for the Beginner" by John Mepham, however reading these books will only provide clear insights and goals when gambling, but it will never guarantee easy winning. Personal experience will certainly matter the most. And note that gambling should not only be focused on how to play gambling effectively, but it should be more on how to approach gambling responsibly.

It will be difficult to get a single material that hold all the information needed for a beginner in gambling so my recommendation is to go game-by-game approach. If such person have interest in a particular type of game like slot or poker, then he should start with Youtube which have a lot of information regarding each of these games with practical examples of what they entail. This is in addition to the rules already set by the casinos in the platforms which shed some kinds of light to the games already. Similarly, if the interest is on sports betting, Youtube will also be very helpful in addition to some websites that give details analysis of the matches as well as free predictions of those matches. However, at the end of the day, experience is the best way to learn about gambling so he should start practicing even if it is with demo account.

True but you still need the knowledge regardless. You actually do need knowledge to be able to gamble because it's very essential as you need it to be lucky, you don't get lucky all the time without having the knowledge to utilise opportunities as such, only the knowledgeable ones are going to always have an edge over the ones the ones who have limited knowledge. But luck is paramount. Yeah you are right, sport betting is a combination of Skill and luck, this two works together some set of people believes that sport betting is just all about luck which is not true, let's take soccer for example we know there are clubs that are stronger or more inform than others and if two clubs are playing, knowing clubs that are more inform will help you know what to predict, yeah we know that sometimes the clubs that are less inform may win the more informed ones and that happens few times and that is why luck and Skill work together.
If you are gambling base on luck only then you are gambling blinding and you will lose money always, you need to do research about any game you want to predict you can't just predict a game without doing a good research on that game, when I started gambling, someone told me I should just predict that gambling is all about luck when I did that for some weeks I lost all the games I predicted that made me to stop and I started doing research of any game I want to predict and that is how I started winning more than I lose.
What books would you recommend?
Before you suggest something about gambling to your friend, you must first know what the goals and factors are for your friend reading books and wanting to gamble.There are several things that a beginner in the world of gambling needs to know.
• gambling is an action that makes them gamble where it is generally known that the winner gets money and vice versa.
• and the name of the game everywhere we know is definitely a matter of chance and so on.
You can say these two points to your friend, don't talk about gambling as just a theory, practice in the field is much different from what you read, so what you read in books doesn't guarantee they will win, in gambling you need experience and strategy in the game depending on what gambling game they are playing, the point is to master and understand the game they want to bet on, that will open up opportunities for them.
