It's a Simple question -
Let's all assume that luck could be measured in percentage, I want us all to rate our luck in gambling for the year 2022,
From 0 to 100, rate how lucky you were in gambling last year.

And if you don't mind, feel free to also discuss your plans for this year 2023, how much do you hope to make from gambling before this year runs out, and do you have plans laid down to make this possible? Please feel free to tell us, you might just be helping someone re-arrange their gambling activities/plans for the year.

For me,
I will rate my 2022 gambling luck 5% out of 100, I didn't gamble much, but for the little I gambled, I didn't win much either, Infact, I think I lost more money than I won from gambling in 2022.

My gambling plans for this year 2023...
I currently do not have any plans yet for this year as I've not really settled into the year, have a few debts from last year I am still trying to settle before I think of gambling again..

With so many upsets in sports matches last year, luck for those who regularly bet on top dogs could be the same as 5% as well.

My plan which I should have done last year is to just bet using the stablecoin. This year seems to be a good time to consolidate more of the BTC I earn. And probably just bet more of the altcoins I hold.

Luck was at 30 overall for 2022. My plan was still the same plan to not over gamble and just gamble the money I can fathom to be gone. I won't have that much of an extensive plans though especially if it's about gambling, it's like 5% on all of my plan for this year.

It was a year of low key with gambling because previous 2 years wasn't really profitable with betting so I decided to take it cool to strategize. Therefore, I didn't make much on betting and didn't spend much on it. This year is still fresh and needs more analysis of the games to know the decision to take. My favourite area to bet is soccer , so I will have to watch more football clubs to be informed so this will also in soccer knowledge and transfers for this year.

I have week after week hoped to get the maximum prize from my favorite slot machines and even at the highest multiplier because I only play in slot machines that offers you big multipliers during the bonus round.The result unfortunately has not been good while I have lost more than I have won and never ever I have even been close to win such prize with a big multiplier.I would rate my luck for 2022 in percentage in 40-50% because I have won several times big amounts but not what I was aiming for,so my objectives have not been fulfilled in 2022.

I have the same plan for 2023 and I hope this since is an odd year I believe to bring me better luck than 2022 brought me but I know that in gambling the house edge crushes you so I have not high expectations anymore.

At 30 percent, I want to assume you won more money than you lost, congratulations mate, shows the year 2022 was at least, good to you in the area of gambling.

And gambling only what we can afford to lose should always be a plan or in the plan, last year, I made some series of mistakes in this area which contributed to my ending 2022 in some dept, I am glad I've learnt the hard way, and currently, it's already in the plan not to make the same mistake ever again.

I wish you even more luck this year, that the odds will always be in your favor.

from 0 to 100, my win rate is only 2%, a losing 98%, maybe.
because from the beginning I started gambling again I didn't expect anything big, I mean I gamble just for fun with the limit of money I can afford to lose and don't expect a big win. if I get a win from gambling it is only limited to my entertainment bonus and I use it again to bet.



plan this year. I gamble every time using smaller pennies and can last up to a few hours of fun. but my wish is that this year I want to try betting with bigger funds and with bigger bets in roulette and baccarat.
I just want to conquer roulette and baccarat this year 8)

No, I assume it was below the 50% chance of winning so it was likely on the losing side, I thought 30% was low though before I posted this. Maybe rating it 1-10 instead of 0-100% is wrong, people tend to mistakenly think it was a 1-10 criterea for rating, so my rate would be likely at 3% only. Maybe you could change that.

If I should compare all my lost bets to the once I won.
Then my luck score will be not more than 7% (working with number of bets placed.) . Each time I place a bet I rarely win anything but I still go on with the gambling. But I've made some huge amount from gambling in this past but none recently.

Checking some of my winnings and I think its only 10% of luck since I always lose the money every time I play and that’s ok for me. Hoping that this year will be my lucky year in gambling, hope to experience winning the jackpot again. Probably the bear market affect my luck last year, and since I’m very optimistic for this year, gambling should also be good for me.

I don't think we've got alot of peeps that sailed through the betting line last year; it's never happened that majority of the bettors get fortunate enough to have something saved outta the last year's big wins ... It's always a few, randomly selected tickets( for the casino case)... Though I don't gamble but I know these things. I think if I'm into 'em, the percentage of inaccuracies that I'll get for any properly analysed wager would be around 4/10
I remember a guy from yesterday, that gambled away all the funds he got on his betking wallet; that was about 55k or there about.

Since my 2022 gambling win ratio is higher than my lose ratio, I can rate my luck as 51%.  I have won a good amount but not too good to have a life changer, most it gives me is an extra funds to pay my monthly bills.

For my 2023 plan, I think I stick to my old routine or possibly have a lesser gambling engagement.  Gambling and winning are sure fun but we should always safeguard ourselves from the possibility of gambling addiction.  So to avoid this possibility I think I should lessen my gambling engagement and put it into another productive activity.

Im on the same page on which im not really that much too lucky for this year on dealing up with gambling but it is really just fine since i dont really chase up profits on the time i do gamble.
5% luck for this year would really be just enough to describe out and it doesnt matter though because i dont really have that kind of desperation on making money and this is where people do
mind off most of the time.They wouldnt be thinking on how lucky or unlucky they are when they do gamble even though it is really that impossible for someone not to mind
off but it does vary on certain individuals because we do have different inputs.

Probably around 5% as well, I was careless last year and didn't bother thinking about my losses and because of being too emotion every time I gamble. I have to correct it this year and start monitoring all my gambling transactions, I just hope to win more this year and enjoy more. I just play on a local gambling site, still have a good capital to start this month so let's see if I can make more money this year compare to last year.

I think definitely more than 50 percent. If you take the whole year, then in total I'm in the black. Even if this plus is small, and given the time spent, you might think that this is a minus  ;D
But if you consider that gambling is a hobby and take into account the adrenaline and emotions that I got, then I can definitely say that I am in the black in any case.

I always have bad luck with gambling, and last year was no different. I always like to play sports betting casino is not my thing, but this year I want to focus on casinos.
I will just test out my luck this year and will play casinos more regularly along with sports betting.

So, if you want me to rate my luck in percentage, I can say it was 30-40% last year. I am more of a sports gambler and less of a casino player.

I would say im in 30-40% or simply im in negative because most of the sessions or gambling times on which all of my balance would be wipen out but there are times
i do make out some withdrawals too but speaking about in a year then it is really that hard to remember every situation or moments but im sure that
im in negative.

Though it doesnt matter because i do play for fun and for this new year then i would still be doing the same on which im not really that expecting
or anticipating much when it comes to profits.

In gambling, the percentage that is appropriate for me is maybe only 10%, because there is some luck that I might get, some jackpots when playing slot games. But 90% of I lose and end up getting nothing. I'm not very good at gambling and I don't gamble often, only when I want to kill some time.

for 2023 there are no plans for gambling, still focusing on trading and some investments that I will make. Gambling is only for entertainment with not too much allocation of funds.

Luck pretty much IS based on numbers from 0 to 100. Since probability is all percentages and that is what probabilistic math is based on, mostly.

The world is so extremely, unfathomably complex, that it would not be possible to accurately measure such things as luck since you do not have the knowledge about all the unknown variables which influence your luck. (In this case I am referring to luck as the probability of winning). But If you asked me how I FEEL about how lucky I am, on a scale from 0 to 100 then I would say probably around 30. (at least during the current time - since I have been on a losing streak, it seems.)

I have definitely felt luckier in the past.  ;)

^Nope, it also matters on which game you are playing for, probably in matches playing cards could be has a greater percentage of chances but in games that are against the house edge, I will rate it into 1-5% which is become hard to increase your chances of winning.
In the lottery, how can you rate this? Haha, it could be less than 1 or the smallest fraction of the percentage is your chances of winning, it is quite slim than other games so technically, it matters on which game you bet for.
Because for me, this is not important as long as I enjoy the game.

I experienced being lucky and unfortunate last year. Lots of winnings I made so far in 2022.

Since the topic can't be literally responded to with an accurate answer, I measure my luck from over 80%. The same goes for my winnings but I will increase it from 85% because not all the time do I purely rely on my luck.

Plan for 2023? I don't need any plan and that's not me. I will just go with the flow on my usual.

I have to say around 60% from playing casino games and 40% from sports betting. I was able to get my Stake progress for around 40% to the Bronze level and I'm not that even a regular gambler and only wagering small amounts.

It means my bankroll is increasing thru several winnings.

Hope to keep up with that this year 2023.

Mine is certainly less than 10%.
I never bet with the intention of making money, my bets were always more for fun.
Sports games even gave me good earnings in 2022, but I always spent the surplus on riskier games of chance.
Not with the intention of trying to multiply the earnings quickly, but because I needed games with more action and entertainment to quickly spend what I had won.

Fortunately, I've always set and managed to meet a monthly betting spending target and so far I'm managing to achieve that. So, when I win something, I find a way to quickly make that value "disappear".

Hopefully by 2023 I'll end up making more and more money as I try to get rid of it :D

60 percent, I think. Some may think it's high but it's not. In sports gambling, there's always a way to increase the chance to win so 4 mistakes out of 10 bets is a lot because if you know your sport that should be in the lower number. But I still felt my profits so yes I am above 50% luck this year.

Plans? Same way, keep on analyzing the game at best as I could.
Maybe some improvement only this year. Lessen the laziness at reading the analysis of different people. Track every possible result and consider it because there are times I am emotional and will just take the bet as a fan, that's not right when you are gambling.

I don't know how to measure it, but I'll just share what happened to me when I gambled last year.

I tried to deposit into a gambling website only 3 times the whole year (not that much money was deposited as well). With those 3 times that I gambled, I tripled my initial capital and then withdraw the profit that I got and then I let the initial capital gamble until I lose it. In the end, I got my initial capital doubled and I always stop whenever I lose my money.

Hmmmmmm, maybe at around 80-90%. That's my luck percentage. I only bet on sports and your knowledge in that particular sport increase your chance of winning and that helped me.

Debt must be paid first whatever happens. If it means stopping gambling then by all means, stop. I'm the kind of guy who doesn't like debt unless the money will be going for a good thing like investing it into different assets.

As for me this year, I might increase the times that I will deposit into gambling websites and gamble to at least once a month. What happened to me last year increases my self-confidence when it comes to gambling. :D

Around 40-45 I guess? I was pretty satisfied with my year but afaik I'm generally in the down most of the time with no big wins really, my sessions often end up just being empty or leaving it at the same amount. I rarely played though, maybe a bit more when the ALGS was live. Was pretty unlucky since some of my decisions were made in a whim so you can really see how my losses are pretty justified.

As for this year, I'll probably go light on it for now. Been job hunting after getting dropped off so I can't exactly splurge with how unclear my current state is right now. Well light sessions may still happen but probably a few times only this year depending on my situation.

I gambled heavily but responsibly towards the last quarter of the year largely because of the World Cup. At the beginning of tournament, I lost some money to the underdogs- especially when I thought Argentina was going win Saudi Arabia and so on.
But then as I began to understand the games better, my winning started to increase.
If I should measure my luck percentage for 2022, I would give myself a 10%.
I am still putting a plan in place for 2023.

I have small time spent this year in gambling so i can measure mine as at least 7%? well that is not bad at all because most of the gambler I knew is always a loser and never even made a winning percent from their capital amount .
that is not bad at all mate, taking 10% out of your massive betting last year? that sounds even good profit .

Would probably say around 40% this year I've been more interested in parlay bets on the Basketball and Esports games and 30-40% of the time my parlay with a minimum odds of 3.5 is winning so I give my overall percentage luck in gambling a 40% I was hoping that this year I would at least make it above 40% but luck is luck, there's nothing you can do to change it or affect your luck.

Very hypothetical question, but I would say around 15% - 20% of luck is on my side in 2022. So still so so performance for me, sports betting or casino games as well. Just like in the last couple of days, I have streak of bad luck so I'm on a negative this early this year.

Hopefully though I can bounce back with a big win and again, lady luck should be in my side to be able to bounce back from my early loses.

Still a long way to go for the whole year so I'm optimistic that I can still won some.

I think given the fact that you didn't gamble much and didn't win a lot either, 5% for luck is a little too generous for me. Although you do you really.

As for me, I played and gambled quite a lot this year, studied working gambling patterns and strategies to maximize winnings, and ensured that I incorporate a discipline whenever I play. If I were to interpret this into percentages, I think I'd hit a solid 40-50% luck rate because my gambling funds remained relatively the same despite the amount of games I have played,

Gambling is not an everyday thing for me so I will say 5% because I only use what I can afford to lose and I don't let gambling take over my mind, I take it as a fun game and I use a very little amount of money or assets like Dogecoin and LTC.

Some time ago I got too attached to gambling and I noticed that when I win a lot I always end up losing it to gambling again, since then I knew that gambling isn't really for me, instead I see it as a game 🎱  .

How can I calculate it, is it based on our result of every gambling session or based on overall statistic during the year. If it is based on every gambling session, maybe I have to say that my luck is around 20-30% with a simple math I made profit in 3 out of my 10 gambling sessions. But in overall statistic, I would say my luck is between 50-60% since I made small profit during 2022 although I did not gamble much.

If the measure is from the beginning of 2022 then I can't be sure what percentage is the right number to describe it because I've forgotten enough about the journey at the beginning of last year, but in December I can get pretty good luck, I can even say it's perfect because of the funds allocated to play in that month I can get very positive results and dare to say perfect for December 100%, but I don't know how to calculate it, I just think when we can withdraw several times the deposit value then that is great luck.
Don't have a strategy on how to play this year, just do what I'm sually do and try to be more active at one of the casinos to get more benefits from promotions at that casino.

my luck in 2022 is very bad,, i don't bet too much but from betting several times my winning percentage is around 3% .. indeed, the money i lost was not too much, but it ruined my mood a little when i think back on it and i don't know if i chose the wrong gambling platform or my luck was really bad .. so for 2022 i can give a rating of 3 out of 100 for my luck

I don't see much point in the abstractness of that question about the percentage. As if luck were something we could measure with a ruler or a tape measure and then apply a %.

If we can do something similar, I only see sense in comparing it to the Expected Value, because the difference in real results with respect to the Expected Value is what can help us establish a measure of luck.

According to this, in my case during 2022 and without keeping a record of all the results, I think I was in results above the Expected Value. However, quantifying it as a percentage does not make sense to me.

I wasn't lucky to something around 80% based on what I've lost. I was able to have good wager and increase my chances of reaching next VIP level. I was about to quit at several occasions as the losing continued. The run to recover the loss kept me pushing hard. Finally I was able to recover almost 80% of what I lost throughout the year. I thought of chasing to recover the remaining 20% and my inner mind said you may loss everything once again chasing the 20%

My gambling activities were much into casino games and particularly on Dice. 2021 was the worst year compared to 2022.

No you are not unlucky but you simply lack knowledge and experience on the sport that you are betting. If only the type of gambling that you play is casino then being unlucky is a valid term. Even though sports betting mainly relies in knowledge and experience, losing can still be inevitable sometimes but that was fine as long as your winning rates are still higher than 50 percent.

This ensures that you aren't only burning money but you are still gaining something. It's great that you will go out of your comfort zone and try something new but you shouldn't think that playing in casino can give you a better win than in sports betting but they are great only if you want to have fun.

I rate my luck in 2022 at under 10% (probably under 5%) because I'm not exactly sure how to calculate it. What is clear is that the losses I have experienced are still greater than the wins I have won. But that's okay because I'm not chasing winnings from gambling and just want to have fun gambling.

My gambling plan for 2023 is to continue playing gambling for fun as before and will not play gambling using larger amounts of money because that will not guarantee that I will be able to win a lot of money. I think gambling should be treated as entertainment and nothing more so that we don't experience huge losses.

Have you tried changing gambling platforms maybe the one you're using isn't favorable to you. I once had this issue and after I move over to my current gambling casino, I have been doing somehow great like I get the wins when I'm feeling lucky and some days things are just flat but I understand that's all part of the game.

In 2022 my winning percentage was 80% for sport betting, I won majority of the times I place a bet while other times football been football, teams that you'll think can easily defeat the other team lost and that cost me some loss. As for luck based games, I didn't take note of the wins since I knew that was just me been lucky and not my skills working.

I was lucky during the year 2022, and although I don't completely understand how to rate it on the scale from 0 to 100, I'll say it was 60%, meaning that I definitely won more than I lost.


And as for the plans, I don't have any. I think planning to earn money through gambling would be a bad idea for anyone. We should gamble for fun, entertainment and relaxation, and earn money through other ways.

Not sure how the calculation of luck in gambling, but if it's calculate by the initial deposit and the outcome, I'd say my luck is 2-3% only since I lost 97-98% money which I deposited on the casino. I'm not sad because I already know gambling in slots will suffer losses due to house edge, but I'm really happy because I can hit huge multipliers to satisfy my feelings. Just gamble what you can afford to lose, don't chase for winnings.

I also don't have plans yet for this 2023 for gambling. I'll gamble whenever I want and when I'm in need. Things like this shouldn't be really part of a plan because when you do, are you even sure that your plans will be followed?

It's a gambling and when emotions are too high even if you're firmed with your plans, I don't think that you'll be able to follow what you've planned for the start of this year.

As for my stats for 2022, not that much as well, more losses instead of wins but that's fine as those bets I've made were I've enjoyed a lot mostly in sports.

I also didn't win that much last year, so not a good percentage for me, probably in the highs of 10% only. Both land based and online casinos, I don't know, maybe I was not meant to win huge money last year.


Hopefully my luck is different for this year, yeah same here, credit card bills and others that we need to settle before we can gamble. Too much temptations though, but hopefully I can get through all of this because I want to settle my debt first as well.

I only made few bets on 2022 which I proud to say that my winning percentage is around 80% last TI on Dota2. This is the only time I made courage to bet again on sportsbook and win a decent of gambling after a long hiatus. But I’m so unlucky on trading which drain most of my profit on gambling.

If this luck measure only counts the betting stats then I’m 80% but if the final outcome is what being measure for the year 2022, roughly 10% lucky.

Odds above 3.5 means that the event will happen with a probability of less than 28%, so winning such bets with a probability of 30-40% means that you are very lucky and your luck is closer to 60%. After all, it is logical that if a better guesses outcomes with odds of 10 with a frequency of more than 10% (which means that he is in the black), then he is lucky (luck is more than 50%), and according your method of determining luck, his luck would be 10-15%.

I'd tend to rate my luck in the 70% range when it comes to gambling, mostly because that's likely the percentage of bets that I put down which are fully covered. The remainder would probably involve lottery tickets which never win anything substantial and the odd little trip to the casino. Maybe you cannot call that luck however, if you're taking advantage of freebie or generous promotions that allow you to walk away with $10-20 quite easily every week. Quite a few casinos/sportbooks have removed offers from my account but there are a couple who don't seem to follow this practice. If you're running at 5% then frankly you should save your money and find better places to spend it.

That was way too low I thought I have the lowest at 30%, 50% of it is from casinos and the remaining 50% is from peer-to-peer betting where I bet against my friends on boxing, basketball, and cockfighting I guess I have a very low percentage because I sometimes chase my losses and I go for possible upsets

I also do not have a plan, gambling is something you don't plan I hate making it a new year's resolution because I end up breaking it when it comes to gambling never say never.

In 2022, I was actually quite happy and pretty good for a start, especially when betting on big domestic leagues, especially for the Champions League and Europa League. But other conditions were a little disturbed when the world cup. There were lots of surprises there that made me lose my confidence a little for a few matches when betting and this was really annoying because even though analysis and in terms of strength made the difference, in the world cup that was over, I made lots of mistakes in betting so I lost be an absolute condition.

I was thinking for a couple of minutes right now to calculate my percentage of luck, but I can't calculate it since I haven't counted my winnings and also the game I played and bet on, but I would say 3 percent since I rarely won last year, I think because I played a few games and then rested for a couple of weeks. I rarely gambled in the past 2 years because I just lost my job, but for sure this year I will have a budget to gamble every month as long as I have extra from my salary. Though I am hoping that I could win big, I still just put it in my mind that I do it for fun.

I made a lot of bets last year, and it's hard to measure in percentage my perceived luck, rough estimates though could be just 10% give and take. And it just shows that it's hard to win, only small percentage could have made big money here.

But as gamblers, we are more willing to take risk and test whether we are lucky or not.

Might be good if we have a poll as well in the beginning to see where we at in terms of numbers.

As for my plans, yeah, continue to gamble, what else, hehehe, but probably just be smart and just lose money that we can afford and don't gamble with our emotions.

My 2022 is not so good, I gamble not too often this year because I have a lot on my plate but if I am going to rate all I can say is probably 60% because when I lose in that particular day I will give my self rest for about 3days i think? or I will play the next week. My max bet per game is 100$ as well, I disciplined myself not to add more and if I will lose I will not try to take it back.

I will not say I was super lucky last year in gambling, but my luck was not all that bad because I won some amount of money that I was happy about playing on Livecasino.io.
On a scale of 0-100, My luck last year was fluctuating between 55 and 45 I will say.

For this new year, I still hope to try out my luck whenever I can, that is gamble some more responsibly.

in 2022 yesterday I suffered a loss in the world cup, even though I won several bets on soccer matches in the league compared to the casino, almost lost 90% in the world cup, while this year it looks like I will return to betting from the beginning again and will never bet on events national

I think it is around 75% because I somehow bagged quite of an amount before the end of the previous year. It ain't that much but it is an achievement for me since I am not a 'heavy' player. Also, I do engage more with sportsbetting so no matter what the outcome is, I do still enjoy the experience itself.
Well, atleast you are not forcing your luck too much. For sure we are mostly aware that there are players who are pushing way too much just to be like those who made fortune out of this industry. Luck will always have a special place in this activity. The impression of being rich in an instant is the thing we should avoid. Knowing how uncertain winning is, it would be much better to always measure the risks and amount that has tendencies to be lost. As long as you enjoy what you are doing, for sure you won't be eaten by the misconception of what gambling really is all about.

Maybe about 40 out of 100 I guess? I win more gamble sessions I have this year than losing. It's not because of my luck, I think it's because of my years of gambling experience and how much I control myself from doing gambling. I don't do risky bets this year since I know my luck is not that much that's why I know that I'm just a chill gambler this year and I just gamble without that much pressure behind my back.

For this year, I think I'm just do what I usually do. It's good for me both financially and mentally that's why I think I'll stick on this kind of routine of mine.

Throughout 2022, I rarely bet. Maybe in a month, I only bet under 15 times, and even then only use money under $ 20, which I don't use all at once in one day. And perhaps, I will gamble again after a few months or even longer, so I didn't have high expectations in 2022.

I think I won't gamble too often this year and just waste my free time. I also don't expect much to win when I play because that's far from my mind. Maybe I'm a petty gambler who only bets when I feel like it.

I didn't bet too much this year because I had bad losses last 2021. I tried to recover for a year first but I bet a few times and I could say that my luck percentage was just 50%. I won a good amount but still lose it later on. It was a tough and challenging year for me but it's a good thing that I was able to control myself from too much betting. I guess the best gain that I had last 2022 is that I was able to control and discipline myself when it comes to gambling.

I experienced the same thing, lose a lot of money in the world cup because of so many unexpected result but I think its worth it since I enjoy the whole world cup and I can't wait for the next one which will be more bigger and exciting. My overall luck maybe around 15%, its not that big when it comes to the total but I can say that profit is still a profit regardless of its value. Hoping as well for this year's luck, Chinese new year is coming and I will surely participate and follow some of their belief.

I can rate my luck as 17% due to past experiences. I didn't bet much in 2022 because I was afraid and I am still afraid of addiction. I see that addicted gamblers suffer alot emotionally and financially.
That is why I control myself by not involving in betting as I often as I remember it. I do it only gor fun and I like it that way. The danger of it is greater than the joy of it.

Last year wasn't a lucky year for me so maybe my luck rate was just 30%. I have allocated 20% of my monthly salary to gambling. I sacrificed buying the things that I was over it but I was unfortunate to reach my target profit at the end of the year. I had big losses in Blackjack and poker. This year, I will decrease my allocated funds for gambling to save and allocate it to betting things like an investment.

My luck in year 2022 was -99.99
that has been the worst year of my life - full of trouble and disasters and and bad luck
The worse experiences I have had in my life has happened in 2022. 

For casino games, maybe only 2%. almost every time I play casino I end up losing. although actually I'm not a high roller, so I can still enjoy it because the number of losses I bet is very limited. for sportbook, it seems difficult for me to percentage. because when I'm in unlucky mode, I can lose in a row in one night and it's not uncommon for me to get results with good profits.

To be honest, I'm not interested in measuring losing and winning percentages. however, during the Qatar world cup yesterday. I get very high profit either from single bet or palay option. what made me win the most was during the matches between Japan vs Germany, Spain vs Japan, Portugal vs Marroco. I bet on the underdog either single bet or from parlay option.

Now, the league has started again, whether 2023 will be a lucky year or vice versa.

It will be almost impossible for me to know the exact percentage of my luck when it comes to gambling. But I can give an estimate of last year's wins compared to the losses. Based in all my bets in year 2022 I will say that my luck percentage when it comes to gambling is not more than 30%  I don't frequently gamble though but whenever I do most times I do loss my bet.

I see most people having a percentage more than 60% I'm curious to what strategies do they employ when gambling do they have certain factors that they consider that increases the probability of them winning the bet.

Thinking about gambling, 2022 wasn't a good year for me, because it was the year where I lost the biggest sum of money in my entire life. I think I could rate my luck in zero then. My predictions on sports' results, more precisely regards World Cup, weren't correct too, as I though Brazil was going to be the champion and that Argentina was going to fall much before the finals. I also didn't believe on the underdogs which proved to be able to defeat some favorite national teams. I imagined Germany and Netherlands could go ahead as well. So, definitely, it wasn't a good year for gambling predictions.

I had some lucky days really but some were really bad if i was gonna go from 0-100 i would say 20 or 25 maybe. Could have been a lot better but there was more L days then W ones. Some unlucky days hitted at the end of the year,even now at the start of the year i didnt have luck at all.

I consider 2022 to have been a fairly successful gambling year for me, as I have never lost more money than my own established threshold of $100-200 per gambling session. Of course there were wins and losses, but I can't say that I lost or won much.

I hope that 2023 will be more productive and bring us all what each of us dreams about.

From playing at online casinos to sports betting, last year was a bust for me. I think I only won around 35% of my total bets. Luckily I am not the same person anymore that does revenge bets which were proven to further widen my losses in the past. Late in the year, I lowered the amount of bets further and I do not have daily bets anymore.

Hopefully, this year is a better one. So far I am 1-1 with a slight loss. Maybe we should focus on a few sports only so we will have more time to research and analyze games.  

2022 was really good for me. In the year 2021 experienced big loss and shared it in a thread Be a Responsible Gambler (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5329777.msg56754600#msg56754600). The loss was big and it was a big blow in my life. This year the learning have kept me limit myself as well as not to take break if things weren't in favour. In terms of percentage I'm 100% lucky because the losses were just small amount that is similar to what I spend for entertainment.

Better not to make yourself that believing nor hopeful but its not bad to wish on having a bad year with your gambling activity and specially with your budget or limits.Not all are really that good
when it comes to handling up their emotions towards gambling activity, there are people who dont mind on how much they do spend on gambling as long they do really tend to chase up
those wins but there are ones who do come after for the entertainment which it is a must thing.For me i could rate 50% where i do enjoy up my games or gambling activity on last
year even though i have the feeling that im on negative.  :D

I'm not sure you said -99.99 for gambling activities, unless you accumulate everything for it, you can't give up from failure and keep the spirit of a fresh start in the new year, if you lost too many gambling losses last year then there is no need for revenge, but set a limit for gambling that is able to lose and do not involve high funds. i think you have to measure the potential of luck in gambling and if sportsbook to be luck then focus gambling on sports betting, improve your skills and analysis to measure the odds of winning sports betting.

2022 thought me some lessons. no luck, plenty loss... _99.9% one thing I learned was given up is illegal 2023 is another year to smile from the up and down. With what I've across in year 2022 thought me how to use my 5% to Gamling and not to put one egg in one basket

I believe you meant to say *not to put all eggs in one basket...

Anyways, if i must be sincere, I've never be as serious with gambling like I was in 2022, and I've also never lost to gambling, as much as I lost in 2022,
Well, let me just be frank, I actually won most of the games I played in 2022, I mean most of my bets, but just one lost ended up taking all the profits plus more money I never anticipated loosing, and this was because I went over board with the betting, I never thought it was possible to lose that game and the over confidence I had in the team drove me into even converting my money I use in running my business into bitcoin and betting it all in one match, it was like I was dreaming when I lost that money, even up till now, I and my business are yet to recover from the impact.

I feel the same at times but I don't consider myself unlucky in life, just in gambling.

My gambling luck might be at 25% but my total luck in life is at least 50%.

Well!!  uh...
Without a doubt, I do not believe that it is the logical way to give results in reference to a year or any time period chosen to determine phases.

Now, in general or colloquial terms of conversation, something can be said, in my case I would say:

The first case, 0% when you don't win.
The second case, 100% when I win.

last year I wasn't really lucky so I lost 80% of the wins which was only 20%, maybe I will try lots of new games at the casino this year looking for lots of lucky chances in each game

Seriously 2022 was not just really a good year for me, things were not just right for me both in gambling and other activities last year. Seriously I lost lots of money in 2022, I was not really lucky, mostly I always play sport gambling, but to be honest one or two matches were always spoiling my bet, so I made just little amount from gambling and if am to rate myself, then i will be rating myself 30%.

I don't really have any serious plan for this 2023 yet, if I notice what was happening to me last year keeps on repeating itself, then I will reduce the numbers of matches I do pick when am gambling.

Bro, what you did was too risky. May that be a good lesson and always remember the house will always win.
If you ever come across being in a position like that again, take a rest, a deep one, then try not to make bad decisions. I know because I have been there, chasing losses, but I learned my lesson the hard way too. There's no one to blame but myself, I rested for a long time in casino gambling then switched to sports. It's better.
It's not about luck, it's discipline. Because, if ever you won that last bet, I am sure you will try one more time to test your luck which we know will end tearfully.

My luck would probably be lower than 20% :D All my gambling sessions I have just spent money and never really recoup anything back. Even in sports betting wherein I think the events are an easy win for my pick, it'll just go against my bet and bam! Easy lose with juicy odds. That's why I never shared my pick until now that I have shifted my focus in sports betting and I have more time to analyze statistics and my bet. Right now I'm up in my bankroll and doing good so far in my NBA picks. Hopefully it carries over throughout the whole 2023 though.

Obviously, there's no way to determine the exact percentage of our luck. That is beyond our control.

The estimation will do for the purpose of sharing information with others. :)


No explanation or strategy. It's just that these users are really lucky - referring to luck-based games (usually online casino games).

If we refer to sports betting, then aside from luck, their ability to make a good analysis plays a big role in why they have a good winning rate.

That's way too low if I have that percentage I have a good reason to stop gambling with a mindset to make money I will just think that gambling for profit is not for me, I don't know my exact average but it is somewhere between 30 to 40% I'm not making a profit from gambling because even if I win today I will eventually lose it the next day.
I have no plan in gambling this year it's not even included in all my plan I play moderately and that's it, I will still play moderately and will not play for profit or think that I can make money from gambling.

When it comes to gambling, 2022 was a letdown for me. Most of the games I bet on didn't go in my favor. I became discouraged and stopped placing additional bets on games due to my terrible gambling technique. However, if I were to rate my luck on gambling, it would be 2%.

I don't have a specific strategy for betting this year, but I do think that it will be a better year for my side than it was the year 2022

Since I don't gamble much because of the risks and how flexible I am, do I have to rate myself?
From my little odds and bets maybe rating myself about 50% would be better since I can estimate how much I have won and how much I had lost. I do bets mostly out of free will because I don't want to create a bad omen to my family if they eventually find out I am a gambler 😂


Maybe you should have for sport bet if you know how to make predictions or have friends who are fans of sport bets. That was where I made little profits then because I have so many persons who I could secretly meet and get some bookings from them which they had bet on. It was not that easy for me but I still gat the boldness.
 
I am always optimistic about new things, new year so believe in yourself that you could do much better this time than the previous years you had been gambling. Maybe you can meet friends who can help you through like getting games from them or joining a group where they make predictions.

I had about just a little above 30% luck in gambling in 2022, though my own money management is to withdraw immediately I made some profits leaving some little fund in my betting site, thereafter continue betting with the remaining fund at times I do blew up the balance and deposit some fund to start betting all over again, however in the long I made some little profits, though I took a little break after rekting my account in the last quarter of last year, I am planning to resume betting any moment from now and coming back better after some thorough research and hoping to get better luck this year.

I won some and loses more but it's hard to calculate because I never calculate my losses and my winnings but it's somewhere between 30 to 50% I play with money that I can afford to lose and this is excess money so I never calculate or even remember, it's not really the monetary value but the enjoyment I derive from playing.
This coming year I will not change my mindset, I will just play to enjoy with excess money, it's enjoyable to play with no pressure to win.

 ;D How I understand you! The World Cup turned out to be very unfortunate for those who prefer to bet on favorites as a number of top teams were wiped out in the early stages. I thought that after the League of Nations, which almost completely turned into a farce, I would see serious games (and of course it was partially so) but my expectations were not fully met. The games of the national teams now remind me of Serie A - a lot of randomness, although the final result looks natural.

Well, this is an interesting question since I take count of some of my bets
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1234109.msg12848315#msg12848315
since some years, and I have just updated this topic!

Starting from a base of 0,001 btc I have collected this year 0.001712 btc as profit.
this year has been concluded with a sign + 170% from the starting amount.

But respect the previous years I have done seriously bad ::) (987,5% and 2190% as profit in the last 2 years...)

Having less time for bet and also less interest leads to such kind of results. I don't know If I will able to have a better performance, even to keep the topic alive...

By the way I think that I can rate my luck as 51. Not bad at all, but I can made for sure much much better...  8)

We are in the same situation as last year. I have nearly the same win rate ratio. Luck was not on our side last year, so I guess our luck will be this year. Continues losing on bets can lead to personal problems but luckily for some of us who's been here for many years, we became responsible gamblers and learned a lot about the nature of gambling and we survived the struggles in the past. The golden rule is to always gamble money we can afford to lose and that gambling is a form of entertainment and not earning for living purposes.

For me 2022 was the year of challenges and life long lesson. I have learned so many lesson in this year and my gambling luck was as low as 5%
I have decided not to gamble this year, because I have lost my hard earned money in a jiffy. This year  I am not going to gamble because I know my luck wont wont work in gambling.

My luck at the end of year was really good. What I lost got compensated with a prediction game that doesn't require any particular amount to be placed as bet. If I haven't won the prediction pool, my betting win percentage could've been in the negative side. Happy I was able to have my gambling stats positive.

I would have stopped if I have that very low percentage of 5% it just shows how unlucky you are but gambling is addictive we just can't take our eyes off it, my percentage is not good maybe around 30% I win some lose some break even but all I know is I can't beat the house so I just have to enjoy my experience, my plan this year if its possible is to increase my winning ratio I don't know how can I do that, I guess it's knowing when to stop and just enjoy the experience.

Would make up some learning if you have been fucked up that bad just because you had spend out the money which arent supposed to be spend up on gambling.Always consider that gambling is for fun
and shouldnt really be treat up the other way around.

For me it is really just fine even im on the losing side in year 2022 because i do know and have that in mind that it is really just intended for my gambling and wont re ally be
going past beyond limits.If you do have this kind of mindset and be mindful about your actions then you wouldnt really be finding any problems in regarding to that.
In my case then 20% luck for year 2022 is not surprising.

That's the reason for those gamblers who are just not considering their loss as important. You guys are considering gambling just for fun but didn't realize how much you spend and lose already in total with that kind of mindset. It's more fun to win than to lose and stop with this gambling for fun because for sure, those with that mindset end up being regret every time they lose. :)

Maybe the reason also why your luck is not that high as you consider gambling a joke.

Excellent idea for a topic but I'd have to be somewhat logical and say 50 for luck as I think luck is what you make of it.  I wasnt especially lucky this year so not 100 but I cant say I was somehow denied any great share of luck, so average and 50 is my honest answer I was as lucky as I deserve and no more :p    Opportunity wise I feel I could have made more of possible bets I could have placed so I'll stick to 50 and not be too negative on not winning big at anything I've lucky in prior years I cannot complain.

i don't think we can gauge the percentage of our luck. so basically, this is just giving your estimates. but sure, it will be far from what you are thinking of. anyway, maybe, this is just for discussion purposes, nothing concrete out of it. because if you are thinking about luck, can you really define its percentage? nope.

Gambling for some rich people is indeed used for fun because they are confused about where to spend the money, whereas if you are not a group of rich people then you will regret it when you lose at gambling and lose a lot of money which eventually makes you poor, therefore if If you want to enter a gambling place, you have to be careful.

12-15% this year  rating for myself , had spent at least 3k usd in my gambling last year( all my budget had been tallied by my wife and this is how we have a deal letting me to gamble) with that 3k I estimated that have only won 400 dollars and another hundred(those are the biggest and others are just small petty wins) so rating 15% from all my wager is something that out come.
wow that is a great return mate , congratulations and this is best gift received from this whole year of losing .

I was not so lucky last year, and I am just breaking even with my gambling funds. Maybe, I would lose 55% of the time I gamble. I think that is still a good performance considering how low the percentage others are posting.

I will try to do better next year and rely less on luck. I will bet mostly on sports so it will be less relying on luck and more on stats and knowledge of the game.


That is a lot of money. I hope you have enjoyed betting because if not, that money would have lost for nothing.


That is the right attitude. You should never gamble the money you cannot afford to lose. So even if you have a very low batting average, it will not matter to you because that money is only for your entertainment.

I am pretty average when it comes to my luck, and that is because I do not really like to increase the amount I bet as you are forced to do if you use the martingale strategy, so my losses tend to follow the house edge of the casino, however that does not mean that I do not get the occasional bad session and when that is the case I prefer to cut my session short, as it does not feel right to have a session in which you cannot catch a break and you keep losing over and over again

I cannot rate mine exactly because I only play nowadays to have fun meaning I only use money with very little comparing to my previous day of gambling that I use more time and money.

5% luck i guess? because there are only very few that I remember winning but totality are losses but enjoyable lol.

either sports betting or other form of gambling? same stage and losing is what i got .

I have always believed that gambling is a game of luck and not skills and experience. I am not good at recording my gambling activities because it's not a priority in my scale of preferences Taking a fast check of my last year's gambling activity I can speculate that I was not so lucky. Maybe luck was by my side at the rate of 35%. The surprises of this year's world cup contributed to my losses.

I have not changed my gambling plans for sometime now and I don't intend altering it this year. My monthly budget for gambling is still the same and I will be depending solely on luck because I might not have the time to analyze games because of work engagements.

In year 2022 my office luck was like %90. Honestly it was one of my best years as I proved myself in job and had good friendships. Made many meetings etc. My financial life was like %40 I suppose. I wasnt lucky with my bets in general. I sometimes won but generally through lower odds in Turkish super league betting. I wish I was more lucky with crypto tho. Bitcoin had mediocre year, only gave couple opportunities to me. But my bank account felt safe in general, I didnt experience terrible loses.

There is only one measurement for luck , it is 50%. Because you can have only two outcomes, successful and unsuccessful. It is either win or lose, either achieve or not, yes or no. I dont understand how can you people measure all those 5-90% ? It is sort of a answering maybe or perhaps, when there are only yes or no option. Theoretically, there might be a 0% luck chance, but such person must either did not participate or do anything, or just dead.

In general, this is a topic about luck in gambling - this is directly written in the first message (but I'm glad that everything is fine with you). As for work/friendship/financial affairs, of course there is a place for chance here, but at such a distance as a year, most of it depends on the conscious decisions of a person and not on luck.

Last year was not easy for me. Had some ups and downs in life and some things changed for the worst. Even so, wehn it comes to gambling cant say I was unlucky as I did got some beautiful earnings that pretty much wrecked the losses. So, I do believe that my luck was around 65Percent or so.

Even maybe I am very unlucky, I always feel a lot wrong from right in guessing. Although I do that only on weekends. Because I have a main job and it makes me tired for the working day. I think it's an ineffective day.  Maybe if you calculate the percentage, maybe I will be in a minus position. Because the Bitcoin I use to bet is in a loss position from the initial capital.
But I am not sad because my bitcoin that i used focused on gambling and entertaining. So I know the risks,and mybe my all litle bitcoin can be lost. Am I allowed to write down my minus number because it is not in the title of this topic?  ;D

Maybe the measure of luck could be lower than that percentage value because it is never easy to win some money from gambling and we have to be aware of that. If you look at the percentage, only a few can reach above 50% or even 50%, while the others will be below 50%. Some of us can earn a very small percentage, like me, who could not reach 10% from the beginning to the end of the year even though I had won several matches. But I'm sure luck will come one day but it's not worth it if we play gambling every day and spend a lot of money.

It's a bit hard for me to tell how good or bad 2022 was for me, because I am playing so many different casino games and bet on sport game as well. My best game where I make the most money is poker, for years now I haven't deposited any money and only withdraw whenever my bankroll grows enough. I made two big withdrawals and added the profit to my bitcoin wallet. In 2022 I lost money with sports betting, but managed to get a 100 USD voucher for the Worldcup, so in terms of losing my own money it wasn't so bad after all. The same goes with gambling at new casinos, due to first deposit bonuses I always start with much more money than I actually deposited. Its a bit hard to keep track over a longer period of time with multiple casinos. What I do know is that I didn't make a big loss in 2022, so overall I am more or less breaking even. My luck would be around 25% probably, I wasn't lucky enough to make a bit profit but I was lucky enough to avoid a big loss.

I am enthusiastic about gambling this year. I generally like sports betting. I have continued my gambling since the last World Cup till now and I am planning to manage the gambling very well from the beginning of this year. There are many events this year. I am very keen on gambling in almost every event. But if I'm not excited or panicked I can do better there. One of my weaknesses is that when I'm gambling consistently, I deviate from many calculations and gamble differently, causing me to lose everything at some point. So I started the new year with the determination to do something new.

Funny enough, i think we are on the Same stats but mine is a little better i would say because i did had some minor winnings in my overall stakes last year but i won't compare it at all to all my losses i experienced last year so i guess i would grade my luck under 8%.
  I endured most of my lost during the world cup competition in Qatar, the world cup was just full of shocking results and maybe i was unlucky too because almost all the coupon i played was lost and i decided to slow down a bit.

But this year plan for gambling, i think am just going to go for playing of 2.00 odds trying just to get double of my stakes maybe that move would be better and am still hoping on luck to be by my side if not even the 2.00 odds i want to play would result to lost.

If we should all go by the ratings we give to how lucky we are when gambling then it will almost got us discouraged because most gamblers barely made an average of 50%, i will place myself on 30% being lucky whenever i gamble but I don't count it a big deal since that was not the drive that made me gambling everytime, but this will become a thing of concern for those that actually base their live earnings on gambling because they do so by making a living.

It's not that a lot of you guys are unlucky but it's just gambling is built that way to eat our coins :D. Instead of saying if we are lucky or not, why we can't just be contented on what gambling has to offer with us people. It should give us a short happiness to forget our real world problems for a while.

What you did there on gambling only at weekends is right. This must be your rest days. Gambling had some great benefits but it shouldn't interfere with our schedules. Gambling rarely helps you cut your gambling expenses and prevents you from becoming an addict to it.

I think it's too shameful if you will still write your exact luck since you said it was negative but it can be considered already as 0 or zero.

In one sense I think it's better to enjoy than win from gambling. Although everyone wants to win. One of the biggest problems of gamblers is that they fail to maintain their integrity in gambling. Every person has more or less greed for money. Even if a gambler knows the basics, he cannot survive on his balance for long. Because he gets addicted. Common sense fails to work at that moment. In 2022 many have made good from gambling and many have lost everything due to addiction. I think both profit and loss are my daily companions.

I am interested in your statement, regarding that gambling is a game of luck not skill and experience. ok, let's review your statement. there are various versions of gamblers interpreting gambling itself and one of them is you who believe that gambling is pure luck. what you say is not entirely true, nor completely wrong. that in fact, luck is the final determining factor in every bet we make. however, I have a different viewpoint. I think, if it's a casino game, then almost all types of games offered are purely based on luck, although there are always methods, strategies that are applied in each betting session.

For a sportbook, I'm not sure it's just luck. because here, we involve insight, experience, as well as skills when analyzing the teams that will compete. in particular, the one you choose as a bet. because of that, it looks like the surprise at the Qatar world cup yesterday contributed to your loss. Remember, in soccer or other team sports betting, the underdog team won't always win every time. so, this is where the role of foresight, experience, skills, analysis, we are used.

by the way, if we have different points of view I hope you can understand that.

I agree with you, but on the other hand, I think professional gamblers(if I should call those who make gambling a  means of their livelihood that) definitely know how to win, it's just like ordinary day trader compared to a professional day trader.

Professional gamblers have deeper knowledge of varieties of games and know how to increase their chances of winning, since it's what they do for a living, they have to do their homework really well to ensure that their chances of winning is as high as possible, so they don't end up begging for bread.

They are not like most of us here that gamble merely for fun, and even when we gamble for profit, we do it blindly and hoping we get lucky and win.
