I just felt I should bring this up here maybe it will help someone in managing expectations and the entire gambling process.

From experience, I have realised that many people run into problems when they focused so much on winning a particular bet amd when such bet fails, they easily slide into psychological crisis.  Considering that gambling is a game of probability with the chances of losing higher than that of winning, it is therefore expected we work out ways of approaching it so we can remain profitable.

One way of approach is to focus on winning certain number of bets in a series of bets. For instance, you can target to win at least 4 bets in a series of 10 bets with the odds being at least 5 odds. This way, you can lose 6 times and win 4 times yet you still remain highly profitable.

This is my approach and through it, I don't get depress over few loses. This method works for me and I feel it will also work for others. Your opinion are highly welcomed.

Can you explain better?

You can give the name of the games you are playing to win 4 times and lose 6 times and get you profit. You can let us know the odds that you are selecting also.

What if such person doesn't have upto 10 bet as you may say even 1 bet is okay just that how comfortable and reliable is the games he selected is that is the question we should asked ourselves. I can have 10 bets and In all none is being focused to have a correct scores or a higher probability of winning remember it's still a chance and luck based game so we can't still assured that the already trusted are to play accordingly as we may have in our minds. Just that our expectant is on a higher side that is what leads to psychological crisis across gamblers.

The number of games in a particular betslip does not guaranteed your winning. But you may have more chances or probability . I understand where your heading to buddy. In a scenario where you play only 4 games in a betslip since the number of games are not much abd perhaps the odds are low you will be required to stake high so that the winning will be high. That is a good strategy but it will be disappointing if you lose the game because not because an odd is low that means it will turn out well.

Meanwhile much number of games may require just sone few amount of stake and the potential wining will be high plus bonus. However, i will prefer to include a maximum of 10 games in my bet slip so that i can stake with an average amount and the potential wining will be average as well. I am okay with that way.

And after that? You stop? What if you lose? What if you only get 3 of 10?
My strategy is different when it comes to casino games. I bet low with a capital of let's say $10. I will bet only $0.01 and wait for a lucky chance to hit a multiwin. I keep on betting until I reach double my capital which is $20 as per example.
Sometimes it does work out but there's always a problem of greed and if I claim the profits too early there will be boring moments. That's what I don't like so I keep on playing until I get exhausted or if it's time to sleep that's when I stop my auto bet.
There's no assurance with that strategy and most of the time I will rekt my capital first before the RTP comes out. There's a matter of good seed too, in my opinion.
It's nice to see that you come up with your but that kind of thing needs a lot of discipline to make it happen.

If such a betting strategy works for you, I can try it too. but I'm not too focused on how many bets I should make. In sports betting, I bet only on a few matches that make me decide on a bet. let's say there are 5 matches tonight that interest me, then I will bet with my analysis or speculation. although there are other matches I might be able to bet on, I won't do it if the competing teams don't interest me. I don't think betting for higher odds. because I realize that in betting there are only two possibilities, win or lose.

but if you implement it successfully, it will make me more

I don't know if this is a good strategy though, it seems to be very complicated? Of course, when we play or bet we always target to win, maybe it was a single bet or a game parlay bet. So it's better not to make this difficult to ourselves, but bet on games that we think we can win and that's it. If we lose, then go and bet another day and expect that you will be highly profitable. Instead of like betting and targeting certain wins, on the contrary, this method might put you on chasing your losses if you didn't get that profitable with your series of bets.

I'm still getting a little bit confused with your analogy. Do you mean that in order for me to reduce my winning expectation in a serious 10 bet that I'm to place in a week or month, I should target winning just 4 out of the whole 10 bet that I'm going to place? Or do I need to focus on just 4 matches out of 10 selected games that could be placed in one slip? Giving this more light will make it a little easier to understand.
 
And if this is going through the angle I understood it from, then to me it won't still make any difference. The reason is because the 4 bets that we might be expecting to win out of the 10 might be the ones that are going to let us down at the end of the day, and we might end up winning 0 out of the 10 straight games played.

You are only assuming that probability will always play well on the profit side but you can literally experience 10 out of 10 loses even on a 50% winning chance rate. There’s no way to predict an exact outcome of your bets that’s why many loses on gambling because probability always not following our plan no matter what is our target win / profit.

There’s no way to secure or guarantee profit on gambling aside from being lucky as always since all of the gambling games except skill based game are random. Having a target win will not gonna work because don’t know exactly when it will come before your bankroll last.

That "strategy" seems sort of irrelevant and redundant. Ideally you would want to work on improving the quality of your chosen bets and not just choose some arbitrary number where you expect to lose a certain ratio. Every bet placed should ideally be done with knowledge of foresight and only taking the bet if it is at the correct price point. However it is called gambling for a reason and the bookmaker has built in an extra buffer on top of what they are expecting from a bet. Maybe keeping a log and trying to refine based on evidence may be a more logical and powerful idea over time.

I think if I can understand what op is saying is just that in the bet options you have the opportunity to bet like 10 games in the slip like he said and the you can actually have an option to win 5 out of the whole games selected.

Well it is a new option for sports bookies and it has allowed some gamblers some win just like cashout also.

So in local parlance it is called cutting or something like that depending on the sports but generally it means out of the whole bet you can have an option to choose how many games are allowed fail and if the fail exceed the number that you have selected then you have lost the bet entirely but if it is within the range then you have won your bet.

The idea is in one of this sportsbookie, you can read to understand better.

If they can get more information for each match, they can indeed produce or win a number of wins. But that will only happen for some people.
They will see him as a gambler who is irresponsible when gambling.
But it's best if we don't need to have a profit target of how much we want because that will prevent us from stopping gambling before the money runs out.
I don't have any targets in gambling and just want the fun that other people get.
Of course, they must have self-control while they are gambling so that when they want to stop gambling, they can stop immediately without having to think long.

It may be that this approach applies to soccer betting types and is not relevant to other types of betting such as slots.
In my opinion, the 4 bets contained in the betting list have reached the maximum limit because more than 4 bets in the betting list are vulnerable, one of which will fail as predicted and is classified as having put forward the number of odds.

Less than 4 bets for me is much better to do even though the resulting odds are less than 4 or 5 bets.
For example, the odds resulting from 2 bets are 2.5, if we are sure it will work, bet a large amount.

You mean with a series of bets in sports?

I don't specify any winning bets because if you focus too much on it with the desire to win for real it's difficult friend, even if you have targeted a minimum of 4x wins in betting and odds of at least 5, then it will be a different comparison with 6x losing, well which 6x times losing what odds are bet? If the odds are the same then it will not be comparable, but still this series of bets should not be too focused on it will be difficult.

I have the last 10 bets on Sportsbook out of 10 bets only 2 with a win, despite having done the analysis still the match is difficult to guess.

In gambling unfortunately you cannot have a fixed amount of wins through bets as there is no working strategy to always be in profit as most of us would have run into such statistics.I have tried following different tipping pages and based on their choice building a winning series of bets with even very low odds and it did not work.I of course am no expert but just saying that I find it difficult to believe such strategy exists although I would love for this to exist.

If you bet in lines where the odds is at least @5.00, you're betting a huge underdog and I don't think you can easily win 4 from 10 bets. Actually you only need to win 2 bets and you will not suffer any lose, I'd say it's better to bet in parlay where you can bet in low odds and accumulate it to achieve bigger odds.

What category of gambling games you are betting on? Traditional casinos games or sports betting? Do you have to win 4 bets in a row to make this method work, or is it just necessary to win 4 bets from 10 in any sequence?

It's not that easy or often to win consistently in gambling with 5x odds or multiplier. There will be rounds where you will win less than 4 bets from 10 of them, and there will be rounds you won't win any bets. So, how are you going to cope with this kind of scenario which must appear in front of you sooner or later?

It really doesn't look like this is a solid method to bet. Maybe you could share more details about it, and if it's working nicely for you, for how long has it been being like this?

I think something like that does exist, if you check on the link I dropped above.

You can actually stake like 10 games and you have an option to predict how many out of your stake will cut and if that happens accurately or below then you will win the bet base on that option but if your option in the prediction didn't occur then you have lost out. It is a new betting option that sportsbookies have added to their betting strategy. However, that is not to say that it is very easy to win with such option too. One thing about betting options that we need to know is that they are not like bread and tea, they are not easy to go pass.

It is difficult to maintain the winnings we earn in each gambling session. And let alone ensuring that this activity can provide financial benefits, to be able to win even once in my opinion is very difficult. because as you said, gambling is all about probability.

And instead of doing that, it would be better for us to think first about how gambling can remain an activity that still provides pleasure, but does not cause significant losses.

and the way to do that is to enjoy gambling itself, regardless of whether you win or lose at the end of the game. However, apart from that, we also have to have good financial management and emotional control, so that we avoid careless behavior that can lead to big losses in our gambling activities.

Sure it's not just you who would want to see how he can do this. Wins only 4 times yet earns more, one can only see it possible if he picks the riskier options and higher odds like choosing the underdog team. This is rare to happen and he'd be lucky to have chosen them and won.

Something tells me the worst is yet to come if I try this kind of strategy. Followed the sports that I have been a fan of for years but because the providers knew what sort of odds to give, it was hard to get around to profit more which a bettor is left with an option to win more like 7 out of 10.

I read it as advice to always hedge your bets. For example, me personally I like to do a lot of multi-bets to get good odds on games I think will turn out a certain way. However, I also bet the games individually, so if a single game doesn’t go the way I expect it to, I still have a chance to make money on the rest of the bets.

It's true, because gambling itself has its own charm where gambling can make a person forget about many things, because it has the potential to make a profit if it is lucky but many of the gamblers do not make a profit but only make a lot of losses and in my opinion the chances of winning are also thinner than the chances of losing so it is true that it is difficult to win to get from losing a lot of people who are trapped by this game and experience a lot of losses.
 
also many people gamble by following their emotions and greed and this makes the loss of a lot of money that a person has, I myself have experienced this where I have gambled by following greed and emotions that make me experience big losses. So it's good to enjoy gambling don't overdo it because it can harm us financially.

Yes, it's true, when we lose, sometimes we get emotional and that's when the losing streak will come. Sometimes we don't play logically, just place bets randomly and raise bets continuously because we hope that one win will make up for all the losses that have occurred. But in reality something like that doesn't happen, and playing using emotions is just a waste of money.


Honestly, I don't understand this, how is it possible that we can lose 6 times and win 4 times but we get big profits? what game do you play?

I believe that what the op is saying is that if a person bets on 10 football games, for example, in each game the odds will be @5.00 and that person is correct in 4 games, so even with a loss of 6 games, that person will still You will have very high profits which will allow you to keep profits even if you have more losses in other games. In theory this would be the perfect strategy, but unfortunately in practice this strategy does not work for the following reason:

in a football game, in a fight, in a basketball game, in a tennis game, the odds of @5.00 are given to the team that is not the favorite, so it is difficult for a person to be able to place a bet on 10 games in which there are 10 teams that are not favorites and manage to hit 4 games with odds of @5.00, because of this difficulty, people choose to make multibet bets with very high odds, something like odds above @50.00 because that way when they make 10 multibet bets with odds of 50.00 and manage to hit just one multibet bet, then that person will make a profit, and even if that person loses in other games they will still make a profit, it is enough for that person to always place the same amount of money on all bets

that famous phrase: the house always wins, and it's something that shouldn't be ignored, and something that shouldn't be forgotten. Even if a person creates many strategies and thinks that in the long term they will be able to make a profit, that person is deceiving themselves, sooner or later they will understand that gambling is to be seen as just fun. I thought about creating strategies at first when I started gambling, but after I lost a lot, I stopped thinking about it and started playing just thinking about having fun, looking back today, I see that I made a good decision, I play without stress and I I focus more on having fun

Those who fall into this category pf gamblers that become deppressd if their bet goes against their expectation is because of over reliance on their ability to predict the games and making it look as if it possible to make a sure bet,  this is because many of them think that sportbet os a way of making money through it winning,  and even from your explanation os seems you the ops also have the same mindset on gambling or should I say sport betting.
Even with just one game selection,  there is still no assurance of the bet becoming a winning bets if that be the case,  so selecting 4 games is already a risk on your bets since your chances of losing the bet will be increased.
You should always use an amount you can afford to lose and be comfortable with at all time,  because in your entire writing,  there is no where you mention your bet amount. After all, finance is one of the most important aspects that affects gamblers when the loss happens and it has been the measure cause of depression lately.

That's what my friends does. He always makes these parlay bets in football and usually bets over or under certain number of goals and does great with that. His total win rate is close to 50%, but the multiplier is very high. A normal won game can give you x2 win, but a parlay game will often be x3+ so even if you have 30% win rate in these games you'll be up on your money.

I rarely do it because I bet on single event, like the boxing fights that I'm interested in, but I recommend you to at least try parlay bets and bet on things that are likely to happen, like the game being over 2 goals or something like that. These bets don't pay a lot but parlay multiplier does the job.

Of course, with 10 bets and focusing or targeting that 4 bets can win in minimum odds of 5 then you will get big profit depending on the number of bets placed on the 4 winning bets and 6 losses can definitely be covered from 4 wins.
But there is question that I would like to ask related to your statement, namely whether there is gambler or you yourself who can deliberately and guarantee that in 10 bets you can get 4 wins with an odds of 5.
I don't believe this would happen if betting made profit that easily, then all of us here would definitely be able to have decent life as result of gambling.
The reality is that betting and winning is not as easy as you say in series of betting methods like this, there is no guarantee of winning in betting and of course in 10 bets it is not certain that 4 of them will win.
Moreover, in betting to get an odds 5 is difficult, especially if the betting option is superior, obviously there will only be odds 1 less.

But if you are successful in this method and can make big profits, then try to share few screenshots of your winnings.
It would be interesting and worth trying, but I still skeptical about series of betting methods like that.

It seems that your explanation is not good enough, from the type of game and what odds need to be taken so that the chances of 4 wins can provide profit from a total of 10 sessions, how and what are the steps?
How must it guarantee that someone gets the profit correctly even 6 times, I feel that even if you play 10 times gradually it is impossible to guarantee to have 4 wins, if there is, what bet is it?

I think such a mindset is the same as any other mindset that wants to win from gambling, it will trigger you to be worse if you can't control your mentality and mind, almost getting a big win will make you want to continue gambling.

One thing you should understand about betting is the fact that there is no amount of permutation of your bet games that will give you the predicted results you certainly want, betting is unpredictable so your 5 odds might not even go the way your predicting, 4 bets in a series of 10 bets with the odd being 5, that 4 bets might not go your way too.
People sliding into psychological crisis while betting, has to do with the addiction and their level of maturity, gambling is for mature minds, is for people that can take a bow and go when they know that they've lost a lot and try to fight another day.

Whether we are so confident about a particular bet or not, we just have to make sure that we don't over bets because this is one of the major problems many gamblers used to face and if they don't make sure they reduce it or control it, it could lead to big problems. For us to keep making profits from betting, it is good for us to check our strategies and how often we bet so that we don't bet in a way that would after us in the future with great bad effects. We might be doing somethings now that we might not know that they have consequences in the future, until the right time comes and we see it for ourselves.

I can only but imagine how tedious it would be to compile the games to bet on in variations as OP has mentioned.
Still, it would easily become addictive because if this strategy is kept up for a duration, when one doesn't place a bet he/she may feel as if something is missing.

Every gambler I know have their own strategy for placing bets and this may be a more favourable approach for someone who has more funds, more time and is betting online .

I just know that house hedge is real. As gamblers are gambling, they will most likely see the game not favoring. The longer they continue to gamble, the more they might lose. I think you are correct about this. What I use more is the martingale strategy. It is risky too but I do it wisely with just the money that I can afford to lose.

Greedy gamblers would win and still continue to bet until he is no more favoured but losing. Some will be losing and instead to stop playing, they will continue and continue to lose. The strategies used is very important, also the money used. Small amount of money will let you gamble longer if you want to have fun, but martingale strategy will help you to gamble within a short time. Risk management is very important.

Yes what the OP said may not hurt to try but maybe statistically it will not be too appropriate like what the OP did with other people in terms of the amount to be bet, because obviously not everyone has the same ability especially in terms of the amount of the budget, the point is you better put something according to your ability and also do not need to follow the amount of other people's allocations just to get a bigger amount of winnings, because on the other hand everything will not always be able to go according to your wishes, especially on the other hand however this is a probability activity that will be able to produce if you are really lucky.

So just follow your heart, feel free to try other people's methods if you are curious enough but also have to be balanced with your abilities because the final result can't always be fully predicted. On the other hand you have the freedom in terms of choosing the match to bet on, as you said you can bet when you feel like betting, my advice is always keep awareness and set limits, only that can keep you from something you don't want.

You are making a mistake that can give you false hope, gambling shouldn't be seen as a means to make profit because when you are not making profit, you might stand chancing your losses which is unethical because it can lead to addiction. It is good to gamble for fun so that we don't start looking for strategy to make profit because it will mislead you, since gambling is a game of luck.

I don't get your point, are you saying that only four game wins will be profitable ? You should tell us which game that you are referring to and you should also take note that because it worked for you today doesn't mean that it will work for you everyday because gambling take more from us more than what it gives back to us.

Keep in mind that chasing wins can be considered a bad practice also in many circumstances.
There's no sure strategy and if sports are played fairly you can't be sure of the outcome and there can be unpredictable results also.

So if it was certain that you would win 4/10 and you actually lost most, it would make sense to make more bets to catch up. But it doesn't actually work that way. Eatch match actually has its own individual odds. So we're getting into the betting version of the gambler's fallacy.

For me what makes most sense is to just play for fun and try to make predictions about matches you know the best about.

Regardless of your strategy, you should not expect anything in return when you gamble, because its a game of luck and to avoid being disappointed, better not to have any expectations at all.

Once you’re too focus on the winnings and you set your expectation high, that is the time when you will be morre stressed once the result is not in favor to you. We should know that gambling is risky and there is no guaranteed profit here, if you want to gamble happy just go with the flow and expect nothing.

Op I still find it difficult to understand you properly may be you should expanciate it with a good example so that I can get you better. Are you referring to football betting because in soccer betting i have come across some options whch sounds like what you mentioned here but I still find it difficult to understand what you mean. Apart from soccer betting which some gambling companies gives option of getting paid if one or two games fails to play as expected am yet to see other sports with such options so I would like the op to give more details about the best.

I say just manage your bankroll and prepare for either outcome. It’s good enough that you’re shooting for a certain amount of wins within a particular gambling session but I think it would do you more good if you know how to manage your losses as well.

Loss mitigation is just as important as raking in your wins, whether you’re looking to gamble for profit or for entertainment, it features benefits that you just can’t ignore. For instance, you’re greeted with a bankroll that’s saved and you can prolong for as much as possible, instead of blowing all of your money shooting for a win within a series of bets.

Food for thought my friends.

You speak Like you know nothing about gambling, to be very honest with you... There are no specificities to which type of games you could possibly try this strategy... Does this imply that it works with all type of games?.. I don't think so...

---

Take a look at the soccer Virtual games ; 5 odds can't even give you a win on a streak... It'll definitely turn out for atleast 3 on every new week. Live gamings would be an exceptions though.

I don't know whether you have been using the method or whether it has been working for you. I don't know, but the truth is that there is no guarantee when it comes to gambling. If someone likes to bet on 50 different series, there is a higher probability that the person will still lose all the bets because of the idea of picking different games in series, which can even lead to picking some games that the person may not know much about, and that can easily make the person lose their bets. It will be better to bet on a single game you have confidence in than on different games you may not know anything about. The method you are trying to describe has been used by many, but it is not working for them. I also used the method before, but nothing good came out of it.

this is a very subjective one as it depends on the game your are betting with. no one can assure that your other bets with higher odds will surely win. so maybe, this route is working for the OP but it doesn't mean, this strategy will also work for other people.

how can you be so sure that you will get your winnings of 4 bets out of your 10 bets? that depends on your choices, familiarity of the game itself, luck factor among others. so it means, various factors are in play before you can truly hit winning bets. and mostly, betting lines with higher odds are on the losing side. there's a reason why bookies are giving it higher odds. because such line has lower chance of winning. lucky for you if you can really get an upset.

The gambler should ready to keep the target before start of gambling,So he will keep motivate himself before the target was achieved in the gambling.The self motivation was the essential one in the gambling if you planned to make the big winning using the gambling site.The football is the better game to make money in the sportsbet by using the gambling site.Football had many odds to make the money,you can also use the odds of your friends to fullfil your dream of big winnings in the gambling site.The probability for winning and losing was same in the gambling site.The gambler should learn the game and then use their money,the sports betting was the better option for the gambling site.Because it help us make the bet using the players knowledge in the gambling site.

I have the same thought as you that the OP doesn't explain in detail what is meant 10 matches, whether he uses a single bet or uses a parlay bet and in my opinion, if that is what is meant by a single bet, we dont need to bother having to choose 10 matches, just choose some matches that we believe can provide a greater chance of winning dont have to be 10 matches.
but if it is done on a parlay bet with the desire to get 4 wins from 10 matches and then cash out the 4 wins it seems a little risky because parlay bets of more than 5 are already very risky. there are always matches that give surprises and for me it won't work well for you. I.

btw, if we focus on a consistent win, we dont actually need to choose 10 matches but simply choose a single bet on the favorite team which has a bigger chance and always consider choosing the most comfortable option to avoid surprises that will occur because the favorite team can sometimes lose like for example, the bundesliga football match Bayern Munich lost the match at that time with a big score.
and for me, if you want to get more consistent profits, it's better not to take too big a risk at big odds or choose odds that dont exceed @2.
I have used this method for soccer betting and esports betting and it worked well, getting several wins and losses that were smaller than the wins I got. and always remember this is just a bet if you want to get a comfortable profit always bet on a popular team and if there is no popular team match or you are in doubt about a particular team it is better not to force yourself to place a bet or it is better to be patient waiting for the next match.

I apply this method mainly in sports betting. I already stated that the target is 5 odds per bet. Just to be clear, the winning can be more that 4 times in a series of 10 bets, it can also be less but the target is usually to win 4 times in a space of 10 bets. Assuming I have $100 to gamble with, I will have to divide this amount into 10 equal parts for 10 different bets of $10 each. Each winning will give me $50 since the cumulative odds per bet is 5. 4 wins will give me a total of $200 which already doubles my capital and cancels all losses I could possibly incur with the other 6 bets.

From the example I gave above, 3 wins out of 10 bets will still give about 50% profits.

Any gambler that experiences 10 loses out of 10 bets should have to either reconsider his approach and pattern of selecting games or consider quitting gambling as it may not be something for him. Gambling is not that complicated if you one cannot get 5 odds after several trying unless the gambler is not well prepared to analyzed the selections with open mind and present form.

They are too ambitious to get big wins when gambling. and apart from that, they also cannot accept the defeat they received, so they continue playing in the hope that their previous defeat will soon be replaced. However, instead of getting big wins and recovering from the losses they experienced previously, in the end the gambling they did only ended in consecutive losses.

When someone is too ambitious, that's when emotions will take over him. which causes gambling activities to be poorly controlled.

There is no reliable bet my dear, same way there's nothing like fixed games, its all predictions. What he's saying is this. You can play 10 different bet slips and each of them should be of at least 5 odds. According to his prediction, if you're able to win 4 of them and lose 6 of the stakes, you're still obviously profiting. Let's do the analogy.
You play 10 games with $5 each, that gives you $50 for your total stakes.
Now, assuming you won 4 stakes, that would be
$5 * 5 odds totaling $25 for one.
 Now winning 4 of your stakes would be $100
Subtracting your investment from your wins = $100-$50.
so you're still gaining$50, even though you lost 6 of your stakes. This is a cool analogy, but my question is, what is the probability that you'll win up to 4 of your stakes?. Gambling has a lot of surprises  and you'll be shocked to lose all your capital sef ;D.
Gambling doesn't have a definite formula, the formula is simple, gamble in moderation and with a budget.

There shouldn't be any expectations at all because even 4/10 is unlikely to become possible in the consistent then it will lead to the same effect and fall into the disappointment and will keep going on the loop.

If you want to stay away from disappointment then expecting a zero/10 bets is the best way so even if you win one you're achieved more than you expected that will be a good way to manage and if you do not feel like winning then there is no shame in quitting.

What exactly are we looking for in the betting and gambling that we do? Profit or fun

And what makes you feel happy is only when you get a win. While when you get a defeat, you immediately feel sorry for it.  Which in the end results, makes you more stressed and frustrated.
Indeed, the name of the effort to get a big win in every bet and gambling that is done is necessary. But we should also not be too focused and too ambitious to get a big win when doing these activities, and hope that you will win every betting session. Which ultimately leads to loss and regret.
Betting and gambling are for enjoyment, not regret. So when you place a bet, in addition to trying to increase the chances of getting a win through an analysis that you make. but it is important for us to always enjoy every betting session that we do, so that this activity becomes an exciting thing through a sensation and challenge that we get. regardless of whether at the end of the game we will get a win or a loss.

Quite confusing indeed. Never heard and experienced having a fixed win rate in gambling 'coz that is something you won't be able to control as we all know. But I do get the idea of this series of bets somehow wherein you'd be betting for a particular quantity of bets 'til you achieve winning, however, as I said, things will not be consistent.
 Still helpful 'coz still you will be having control over the number of bets you would be making and amount of money you'd probably lose. Even with games wherein analysis do work. However, forcing it will not do you any good. Problem is if you are lacking discipline to keep boundaries on the number of amount you are ready to deal with.

I think when you have a financial problems or need money, that is not the best time to gamble because you will only be making the wrong choices, you wouldn't make the right choices and the chances of winning will always be low. However, I want you to know something for a fact about gambling, your selection is independent of what you think or conclusion. You can make the right selection but sometimes don't have power over what happened next, the result is conditional to what happen in the field.


Nothing is guaranteed in gambling, you can make a single selection of bets and you will get the biggest shock that it wouldn't come home, you will lose that bet faster than when you make 10 selection of games and the problem with smaller odds is that those with smaller amount don't get good return anytime they bet. Imagine you selected a game of PSG Liverpool againt Luton town and you give Liverpool x1 win chance only to be giving 1.21 odd, how do you bet that on $1 supposing you convert that to a local currency. This is the reason why some gamblers like to keep trying multiple odds to win a jackpot one day.

This strategy might be effective for you and may not favor someone else. My question is how are you sure that the four games you focused on will play? You still have to depend on luck for those four bets to play. I think the best option is just to properly analyze games make your predictions and surrender to fate. I don't get depressed over any bet because I place bets based on my financial capacity and I see gambling as entertainment.

One of my friends in the local casino will always advise me to expect nothing from my stakes. He said you will be disappointed if you expect much from gambling. Just expect nothing and something comes, you celebrate your win and move on. And this counsel has saved me from a series of displeasure.

My strategy is very similar to yours specially in sports, as like in 2023 World Cup i made bets for a few matches, When i feel comfortable to make bets in a match in my research then i decided to the bet in which match, I didn’t made bets in the random match where i have no interest. So in betting there are no guarantee if you will make 10 bets and will win 4 bets, i don’t know what 4 wins in 10 bets OP is talking about.

Following multiple gambling strategies shared in this board, a gambler may end up not enjoying the fun of gambling. Staking games 10 times and expecting 4 wins is not realistic. The wins differ per session and gamblers hoping to win a certain time in a series of bets can be disappointed when the choices don't appear as planned. Calling this type of player investment players wouldn't sound weird. Money spent on gambling is meant to be forgotten, but lots of gamblers can't help, but think about their lost funds. They keep calculating in their mind, ways to get them back. Try again is the best possible answer for them, and no other answer like taking a break suits their expectations. Next thing, you'd notice the anger written on the player's face for losing one more time, with no positive result of getting his funds. Realizing that these occurrences aren't supposed to bother the player is the idea behind gambling.

Staying focused on our daily work and improving productivity to make money and increase our income is quite the focus of anybody. When redirecting this focus on gambling it'll curtail the dreams we've got for other real-life activities. This leads the gambler to feel weird about himself, whenever the losses keep piling up. Watching others win also contributes to irresponsible gambling. Gambling streaming influencers have made newbies jump into gambling without any prior information about what the niche is about; how the money is meant to be managed, time limitations, and responsible gambling. They'll chase the wins like they appeared on their screen when watching the streamer play. Silence also has kept gamblers to remain addicted, trying different strategies that won't work. Speaking up helps gambling to figure out ways of surviving loss chase. Not saying OP's methods ain't great, but they won't work for other, even if the chances of working for him, OP, is also slim. Being realistic in gambling; staying happy and gambling for fun. 

Game wey go play go play and game wey go cut go still cut. For the purpose of people who do not understand this phrase. It means that no matter what method you choose to employ in gambling, if you're destined to make a win that day, it will happen and if you're meant to loose that day you'll still loose regardless the method or technique used. I've literally played 5 different games on different slips using 5 different method and guess what? It all turned out you know how...

My point is making multiple stakes doesn't guarantee you've got better chances of winning, if you're meant to win then you will and if you're not, then forget about it.

That's a common challenge in gambling, the balance between ambition and emotional control. I feel It's weird to put ambition in something that is not capability-based activity. Being ambitious in the pursuit of big wins can lead to heightened emotions, making it difficult to have good decision-making, manage losses effectively. The desire to recover quickly from defeats can often result in a cycle of continued gambling without the desired positive outcome.

When people become overly ambitious in gambling, emotions can indeed take over, impairing rational mind. It's crucial for gamblers engaging in the activities to maintain a level-headed approach, acknowledging the element of chance and accepting losses as part of the overall experience. People need to develop a disciplined and controlled mindset as a key to responsible gambling. Limits are needed, both in terms of time and money. It can help prevent the negative consequences associated with unchecked ambition and emotional reactions.

The gambler who like to have fun from the gambling site was the happiest person in gambling.Not only in the gambling in the real life the expectations always hurts,if the boy expects the affection from the girl it may leads to hurting to their relationship of friends.The experienced gamblers was making money by doing the gambling without any expectation,they won’t worry if they loss all the holding.They won’t more excited at the time of big win from the gambling site.

The gambler who was most ambitious will win of most of the time,So he will make the bet with more possibility option in betting.The positive mindset itself help the gamblers to make the better win from the gambling sites.Incase he was fear to make the big win,till the end he won’t make big win in gambling sites.

I'm very happy that someone understands the post correctly and have seen some merits in it. Your example above is a clear indication that you are really following my point. Now let's be realistic for once, if your win rate is not up to 3/10, and you are actively gambling, then you are obviously sliding into depression caused by perpetual loses. In that case, you need to check your strategy if it is actually working.

The other part of your concern is how possible it would be to get 5 odds to make a single bet slip in that series. Well, I just check leagues and teams that are consistent in delivering one outcome and play just those teams. For instance, Bournemouth have been consistent in scoring this season so whoever they are playing, I give them to score atleast a goal and that is it. Another one is that Fulham have been very good at home, so whoever they meet at home will have a hard time winning them so I give them to score a goal or double chance, whichever I consider safer base on who they are meeting,  will be selected. 3 to 4 matches of these nature gives me the 5 odds for the bet slip. The success rate of things like this is high so the 4/10 expectation is realistic.

It's obvious you're talking about sports betting.
As a gambler, you should know it doesn't work like that. You can place 20 bets and not win a single one. It's not about the number of bets you play, it's about how you play.
Now if you take about 5 odds per bet then you have to stake high before you can win something reasonable.
For instance, if you stake $1 on 5 odds you'll only be winning $5. So it's for people that have a very high staking power. If they stake $100 on 5 odds, that's $500.
If you lose, then You've lost more. And to me, I feel it's not worth the risk. Why am I risking $100 for one game to win just $500? Why not use that $100 into five different bets and place my bets on bigger odds?

Also, the analysis that you'll win 4 out of 10 bets is funny. There's no guarantee of this. It might work once or twice but it's not a system. But look at this. $100 on ten bets, that's $1000. If you win 4 out of 10 bets, that's $2000 with 5 odds each. So you've made a thousand dollars and this is the best-case scenario.
On average, you'll win 1 out of 10 bets and that's a loss of $500.

I agree with you so well on this as this method looks very feasible and achievable and it has a good model for risk management such that you don't have to win every thing to be in profit and you aswell don have to loose so much if it goes against you, your bank roll continually remains safe and you stay profitable majority of the time.

Some traders usually use this method to profit in their trading venture as this model also proves very safe and profitable to traders aswell, but then to consistently make money with this strategy it takes some level of discipline aswell because if you don't stay disciplined enough with this strategy it's possible you could still loose because gambling is always a thing of probability but your continues ability to staying disciplined will give you an edge such that your winnings days will be able to make up for the days of losses.

I have a better approach: bet on games that you have studied well and leave the rest.

Most people think that they can win bets based on reading the odds alone. While the bookmakers have already given us the courtesy of analyzing the event to decide, there are still some factors that gamblers fail to take into account before locking the bet. One of that are the most recent news prior the event like injuries, substitutions, and the overall conditions of the players/teams heading into the game. These are miniscule details that can affect the outcome of the bet greatly and are often overlooked because bettors are too excited to place a bet and not follow through with where their money is on.

By only betting on games that you have studied well enough and thoroughly, you will have a better win-loss ratio over time. It's not rocket science, it's just logic and basic math at play.

Like seriously? However, there is also a possibility that either you lose or you win, most times we don't have to put winning in our mindset when ever we want to gamble but it is very hard to do so.
What I think you are saying is it will be more better if a gambler stake on 10 separate games that has at least 2 odds and above or lower, maybe 4 might be won, that's funny though but i can say that there is a possibility that you might still lose the best.
A gambler can not study odds even if he or she take the whole time he or she has, however this is just for only those that are betting on sport, like me.

have read op twice now just to grasp a bit of an understanding of the kind of bet strategy he's trying to convey but literally I just don't have a clue exactly what and how, but I chose to build from what you @racheal9385 has said just to buttress on it. There's no guarantee that chosing few separated games out of 10 games means you going to win the bet there's a possibility of you adding a game that can spoil your bet among those bets. On the other side it is that you might have high chnaces of one of the separated bets playing but the profit won't be something to actually smile at as you would do with having many games put together. I don't know if I should give this a try or not.

From a series of 10 bets you continue to say 6 times and and 4 times win but still get for big, but the question is with 4 wins from 10 bets what are the odds you bet? Is it the same or higher than the other series of 6 bets?

That's what I understand in your approach, but I don't have a target and there is no specific series of bets. For example, in this time I have chosen 10 bets and then tried to convince half of them to win, I can't guarantee because even with lower odds you will find it difficult to win, especially in multi bets you have to be able to guess all of them.

This of course leads to sports betting because the OP said at least 5 odds are at stake.

The bookmakers work on odds with analysis from the best mathematicians and statisticians in the gambling company. They tend to set odds in ways the casino would be on many profits regardless of the winning team. The smaller teams with lesser winning history have high pay for players who wager bets on them. Considering that only a few number of gamblers spend money on smaller teams. The casino earns way too high profits if they win. Hence, Op's method is quite very risky because most people who don't understand how to place games according to the available odds will lose out on all their predictions. They'll always go for a bigger odd or the big team with a high possibility of winning. Forgetting that it's a sports game, anything can happen in the field of play. However, whoever wants to utilize such a predicting strategy should do so with a lesser amount of money to stay on the safe side.

 And also remember to take responsibility for any result that occurs out of the decision. On the side of slot players, this strategy won't work. Unless the player decides to stop after his 10th round on the game, he won't be able to predict what's his fate in utilizing Op's strategy. He claims it works and for that, it'll be profitable for others. No doubt he could be seen making profits using his strategy, but other gamblers may not understand the basics, of how Op could be able to succeed using this strategy. Devising our strategies is important because it feels good to win through a unique strategy exclusively made for us. I don't encourage the sharing of strategies that promise gamblers winning. The method only causes more harm than good to the gamblers who adopt the strategy. Twisting new methods out of other's own could be a better way of creating our gambling strategy.

If we're talking about sports betting, I gotta say I'm not a huge fan of systems that target a specific number of wins.  That stuff makes me kinda nervous - feels too much like chasing losses. And that's a dark road I dont wanna go down and  lose one bet and suddenly you're throwing money around making reckless picks trying to win it back real quick.  Seen it happen and it ain't pretty. 

Nah, do it right and focus on value I say.  Find them bets where the odds outstrip the true odds by a good bit.  That's how you do this thing sustainable like.  Dont gotta win most your bets doing it that way neither.  You find enough value bets, you're golden in the long run.  That's my take anyway.  Slow n steady wins the race with sports betting. 

This psychology works with trading. But this doesn't guarantee that gambler's changes would be higher. It's just a mind set to keep their feet on the ground.

This is just basically playing with higher odds. And odds are difficult because changes to win them are difficult. If you distribute your bets to several 5x odds bets, it doesn't increase your changes to win. It increases your changes to lose.

What danherbias07 was asking was "what if you lose?" What do you do then? Just carry on gambling? And i don't see this differing from any gambling tactic.

Well I have always thought something, when we write down what we win, what we lose, yes, it is as orderly as possible, but in sports betting one has to be quite an analyst with everything that has to do with money, In a bet analysis we must consider how much we know about a specific sport, I think that a person can know a lot about sports, but it is better to specialize in only one so that each of the things that can be considered imprints are established. , that is, analyzing everything that has to do with social networks of a player's team, of all this, because for example, I really like soccer and since I am such a fan of that sport, I know a lot and that helps me bet, but personally I think that's what it takes, to love what you do, I don't deny that sometimes I bet with my heart, with my teams that I like, it's something I can't avoid, and I should avoid.

In this type of things I am very emphatic about doing things, if I were only dedicated to this I would do a great analysis of each team, with the social networks of each player, of the coaches, of everything that can be expressed properly. registered in betting, I am that kind of person, plus I know some technical knowledge, because I am also an expert appraiser, and that has given me many skills to obtain valuable information and what kind of things should be considered, all taken to a technical plan, which I think is great, because that way you combine what you know with what you are passionate about, if they asked me to do something like that, I think it would be my ideal job, but of course that is a matter of the person likes it, but there is no way, I have always said that one must enjoy what one does so that the work is enjoyable, it is proven that if one does what one likes, because one only does it with love, and that is the best of all .

That is a good alternative if you're having trouble moving on, but hitting those higher odds won't always sound that easy when you don't have the luck to back it up.

I guess it's still feasible once you can endure the losing part because there are different ways to get higher odds in sports betting, and the main point here is to view the situation in a bigger picture.

Betting has both profit and loss.  I usually bet on cricket and football games, these bets have a high probability of winning. Focusing on two teams, I bet because I know which team's players are stronger and bet on that team. And I usually win two-place bets if I bet three-place.  Those who are more experienced and better at analyzing the game, are more likely to win.

Does the method you apply continue to work well? If yes, then your balance should have doubled in your casino account.
I think any method will not always work according to predictions because there are times when we analyze wrongly, even if we don't do the analysis, it's completely luck.
Nothing is certain in gambling, and if a gambler is stressed because he has lost then he should stop because it will damage his health, because he cannot accept the result of losing even though it will be possible even though we feel we have been careful enough in gambling.
Gamblers should not only be able to accept wins but losses because based on my experience, I lose more often and get profits because I dare to bet at high odds and win because something in the match went wrong but this happens very rarely.

Yes you are using statistical methods to manage your bets.
In my opinion, that's the best, because that way we can enjoy the game more without burdening our mental state when gambling.

It is really effective but only a few people can use it, because most of them are dominated by greed when they win, fear when they lose.
Eventually they will spend a lot of money gambling until they become depressed because they don't feel like they are winning.

Me too, it's unrealistic to hit a target at such a limited amount of bets unless you're in the safe bets that are going to make. That chasing losses feeling stems from frustration from the losses which is always a thing in gambling most of the time so I am the same as you, I don't try to make it seem like my gambling habit has some sort of rigid system that I need to strictly follow, where's the fun in that if I know how many games I'm going to play and how many wins I got to make to be happy.

That probably be possible but you wouldn't know the outcome if you'll really hit that bet, that will totally depends on the odds/multiplier that you use in the end that matters. Well, a balanced mindset of the player will matter here too because you probably overlook the series of bets here if you already got 7 streak loss and you want to fullfil that 4 bets of winning. It's a matter of discipline.

I'm not sure if you can find a way to do these bets  with that Odds as well because 10 bets winning 4 and losing 6? if this is that easy to find then for sure this will be the game or bets all gamblers will take and I'm afraid that gambling sites will allow players to have this kind of luck.
or maybe this will never be possible when it comes to luck based games?

I don't waste my time trying to win a particular games when it's not favouring me. I will move to other games and try my luck and it works for me at time as I'll win in the new game that I'll be playing. Some individual make the mistakes of staying with one game until they have lost all their money. If dice games isn't favouring you, you should move on from that game to other games. We have many games been offered by the casino therefore we shouldn't spend all our time on one game.

If you're very good at game that you win when you play it, you can continue playing only that game but if you're not winning, don't keep playing and thinking things will change. Try other games until you find a game that favours you and make alot of money from that game before trying other games. I play sport games always and I'm very good at them, whenever I want to gamble, I focus on sport betting until I'm tiree and become unlucky before moving to other games.

Discipline only comes into play when the player is focused on stopping his gambling session after staking 10 games. Which is also a great strategy for any gambler who wants to manage his money. Risking our money with the strategy that promises 4 wins after playing 10 is not realistic. More like hoping that after 10 games the player is sure of winning 4 times. This mindset will easily get broken and the player loses control after 10 plays with no significant win, up to 4 times. He'd want to try until he hits at least 8 wins after playing 20 games. Believing maybe that luck wasn't on his side. Strategies like this don't fit right for any type of gambling, but sporting games are quite preferable for it. Using it on the slot will only cause the player to lose more and get disappointed for not winning the same way as OP promised. However, the goal is to remain as cautious as possible and these strategies most often fail the gambler.

A few losses don't get the OP depressed meaning he doesn't wager huge amounts. A nonobservant gambler who didn't go through Op's statements will try to win a huge amount by staking a significant amount, trusting that the strategy will get him 4 wins. So, Op's statement carries no power, and the strategy is just like telling people to play 15 games that the possibility of winning 6 times is 1. Visit a gambling house where people book football games and you'll notice that most gamblers stake money on every possible odd in a match and end up losing. The printouts are always too many that the player would feel sure of winning at least one game. But to his greatest surprise, none would yield him a win. I only prefer gambling technique that helps save money, not the ones that guarantee a win. In gambling winning is not guaranteed. We are only sure of losing money.   

It is very important to understand a team's game well to be able to win the bet we play because if we understand a team's game well then there is a possibility that we can win the bet.
Yes, there are some people who can analyze a team's game well before they place a bet on the match being played so that they can win the bet.

Such an approach or strategy as shared by the op could really work, but the truth remains that there is absolutely no guarantee of any kind as long as its gambling we are talking about, there are times and days I place up to 20 different bets, and still end up losing all of them, and there are times I win may 4 to 5 out of 20 bets, my joy still is that, I usually don't stake too high.

And talking about placing bets on 5 odds, this is another big risk to be honest, winning a 5 odds bets is highly risky, and to me, there is still a very high Chance that, if one place 10 bets with 5 odds each, he or she may still end up losing all of he or she is unlucky.

In essence, don't treat gambling as a do or die affair in terms making money, be comfortable losing, just as you are happy when you win.

Yes, that's right, anyone must always understand the risk of losing in gambling so that they don't think too much that losing is a disaster that must be regretted, gambling is not only about making money but also about being able to entertain yourself and have fun, the point is don't aim for victory. Whatever it is, as long as you can still enjoy the game, it's part of winning and it's not always just about getting money.

People should learn like that that losing is part of the game and not just about winning, just play and enjoy whatever game you want to play, that's what you should do, not make one's feelings a burden that must be immediately recovered, make the feeling of defeat and victory is something that is equal to being received without having to complain when you get one of them.

Exactly, mate. There's no guarantee of target winnings when it comes to gambling as we know that it depends to your luck. You can't tell the exact amount to win based on your series of bets. Even if you placed a bet in a different platform, chances to win is still in low level.

Doesn't really matter how good you are in analyzing a particular team, it still doesn't guarantee that you'll win the bet because a team's gameplay is most likely to change everytime they come in contact with another team. Mastering a team's gameplay would only give you and edge and increase your chances of winning but not a guarantee because gambling especially soccer is completely unpredictable.

Expectations in gambling is why many people lose their ways and cross the boundary on how much they should be risking, focus on your risk taking instead of how much you should earn if a gamble goes your way, in this world there is no single certainty to anything like gambling, I have no target, from what actually? Something like gambling? No way! No wonder people get addicted, you should just do gamble when you have spare money, don't take it so serious as if its the way.

It seems this expectation in gambling is what's causing so many problem, the reason why someone will win some money and decide to keep gambling until they lose it all and the reason why someone won't have money but decide to gamble on credit, its all because of their expectations, they have created a target that must be reached in mind, crazy.

The outcome of your gambling is far more powerful than you, unless you have some special ability to read the future then you will make all your dreams with gambling to be possible, if not, you have no idea what you are doing, stop pretending like you do, use only what you can afford to lose in gambling and don't build any dream in your head hoping that gambling will solve it.

I don't think this approach works as how OP said it. Sometimes, out of 10 games, you'll get 5, 10, or even more lose streak depending on your luck. So the title is a little confusing as to how will you target your wins in a series of bets. If you want less stress or pressure when gambling, gamble smart, manage your bankroll wisely. Don't focus to much on winning or even chasing your losses. Trust your gut feeling and luck and stay disciplined get out with even little profit when you can.

I will make more to target bigger odds on each bet even though it has a chance of failure. On the first flat, I made more than 5 and even 8 and in other betting lists I made less than 5. Usually betting lists of more than 5 often experience losses even though they miss the prediction by only one match. However, most of the time I win on bets with smaller amounts even though the odds are also small.

I still believe there are gamblers out there that as discipline as we think they are, this might be possible on play that requires analysis but for those games that are based on luck, I don't think so. I like what you said about gambling to save money but in the first place it's still gambling, betting on low odds when lost are great loss but I'd say it's more preferable to those who want to defend their bankroll that much.

I think gamblers don't look at how many times they won, but it's how much they had already won. It's very common and it's also a common problem that sometimes we gamblers aren't too realistic with our goal, I mean, we aim to win big time but in reality we are just small time gambler.

You get what I'm saying? I mean, if most of us does start with a small bankroll but we want to achieve many folds of profit from it, of course that would likely result to a lose as we would lose patience which would result to being aggressive in betting, and with that kind of strategy, we have to be extremely lucky to win. These gambling sites plays with figures, real chances but we play with luck, who would win? Of course they would.

Many forget that gambling is enjoyment, not a source of revenue. Here's a story that illustrates this: Suppose someone likes a movie. No ticket fee return is expected; the experience is the reward. Gambling should be about the thrill, not the cash.

Our brains arent wired to see it that way. The dopamine rush after a win or near-miss can cloud our judgment, making us seek losses or fantasize of unlikely wins. Gambling is a game of chance, not talent, so its important to remember that the results are out of our hands. Lets bet for fun with money we can lose and manage our expectations. This lets us enjoy the thrill without becoming addicted.

That is why this game is called gambling, none other than because there is always no real certainty for something you always want, it is true that no matter if you are a gambler who has good insight and knowledge in the field of sports but still all of them will not always be able to predict accurately, and some ways that others might say are good honestly I believe that it will not be completely accurate.

Even if you bet on a team that has very good performance and depth and that is evident from their last few matches with consecutive wins but still the future is always unpredictable, even you can see how the competition is now running like in the world of soccer, especially the Premier League and Bundesliga, there are many surprises that are happening there where strong teams can be defeated by teams that are very weak in statistics, if you bet and choose the strong according to your knowledge analysis then that means it is very likely for you to lose. So the point is we go back to the initial understanding, after all this is gambling, if you really have the skills and strategies that are good but still the factor of self-control and limits must still be applied for safety.

actually having ambition in gambling is not a problem, but the ambition that they have is too excessive to the detriment of themselves because indeed excessive things are not good. also expecting losses to be replaced is wrong, before gambling they should be prepared for the risk of losing their money or the risk of losing that will happen, also if they get a win they will accept it, right? and it should be so with defeat too, because when you lose and don't accept the defeat you get what can you do so that everything can come back? by returning to gambling it is not the solution.

someone who gambles again with the desire to get a win that can cover his defeat is wrong, until whenever I think they will not be able to cover their defeat, even if they spend hours gambling it does not guarantee that they will get a win, in my opinion just accept the defeat that is obtained, don't think too much about it, because gambling is a paid game.

This is the part that most gamblers usually don't understand: They feel like, with their skill, all their bets are going to be successful. I mean, they put all their hope in that particular bet, and sometimes they go as far as making plans and budgets for the win, which they are expecting from that game.
 
Everyone who is new to gambling or who is already a gambler will be able to notice and realise this: There is no sure game in gambling, no matter the area, which you are fine at or which you can say you are very good at. The less they believe and accept gambling the way it should be, the less disappointment most people will be getting at the end of every game, which they don't play in their favour.

the approach you take is like a 3-2 trading strategy, or 3 win 2 lose, where a trader expects that from 5 trades they will get at least 3 wins to be able to make a profit. but the problem is, are you sure that from all your gambling you can win? there are people who gamble 5 times but lose 5 times in a row. so this approach is easy in theory but quite difficult to adopt because the results of gambling are difficult to predict and one cannot be sure that they will be able to win continuously.

I believe you are referring to sports betting here because if you are talking about gambling games, this isn't relevant. When we talk about sports betting, I don't think that a person needs to have a specific target for their winning bets in several bets they are willing to make because who wouldn't want to win as many of them as possible? So if I have planned to make 10 bets this week, my very first expectation would be to win all 10 of them, but if not, at least as many as possible.

So, what I believe in is to only make bets that you are confident about, which means that if there are 4 matches in a week that you are confident about, you don't need to make extra bets just because you have had a certain plan that you are trying to execute. Just make the necessary bets, and your winning percentage will improve over time.

Of course we must continue to maintain our daily productivity and never assume that gambling is our main activity. And it's not a side job that can increase our income. Gambling is just entertainment and not a top priority in our lives. However, quite a few people consider that gambling is their main priority, and they can even deliberately leave their responsibilities and work, so that they can gamble in peace. And there are also people who prefer to play gambling instead of having breakfast, because they are so addicted to gambling.

If gambling activities are not managed and carried out well, apart from harming yourself, it will also harm other people. including harming the people around us.


Winning at gambling is like something we couldn't have imagined before. Because sometimes without us even expecting it, victory comes suddenly. But it would be a lie if a gambler didn't expect a win when he gambled. But it's a shame if someone hopes for victory too much and continues to chase it. Because when someone is too ambitious to chase victory, that's when their emotions become uncontrollable.

How can you place 20 different bets in a day and even lose all? Don't you think you are following it with desperation thereby playing more than you should? I cannot imagine myself doing that because it is not sustainable; you can be burnt completely and that is bad. However, I don't know the type of risk management you employ. Maybe you target massive wins with small capital, I know a handful of people who use that, although they hardly win but when they do, it is always jackpot.


Getting 5 odds is not that of a big deal if you know what you are doing. Just have a clear mindset and select 3 matches of at least 1.8 odds each and you will have 5 odds. At this point, you don't have to be afraid of it not working because you have 10 times to do it while expecting to be right 4 times.

In the world of gambling we can say that the percentage of losing is quite bigger than the percentage of winning in short we can not deny the fact that every time we put a bet theres a time that instead of winning streak we got a loss streak cause we can not predict the outcome. But if we are too lucky then whenever we put our bet we  will win cause gambling are Base in luck. Even though you are too old in gambling then still there's a high chance of lossing.

It is no possible to guess your winnings or losing in gambling. We can only think of the probability but that doesn't guarantee that I will win 4 bets out of 10. I am not certain of this. I might lose all 10, never winning any or I might win 10, which is a lifetime of luck. Gambling is just pure luck. We can only minimize our loses or maximize our profits if we were good with numbers, analysis, or having certain gamble knowledge. But we can never guess when a person might win. 

In gambling, It's well-known that there is only one winner over some losers, and the one cant be always a winner everytime, because the probability of losing is generally higher than winning. The outcomes in many games of chance are mostly unpredictable, and the element of luck plays a significant role. This unpredictability can lead to alternating periods of loss with few times of success. It creates an inherent volatility in the gambling environment.

While skill and strategy may play a role in certain games, luck remains a central element that can sway the results in unexpected ways. This unpredictability ensures that even seasoned gamblers cannot guarantee consistent wins. Experience does not shield people from the possibility of losses. Regardless of how familiar one is with gambling, the inherent risk and reliance on luck mean that everyone faces a similar chance of losing in any given session. the reliance on luck are intrinsic aspects of gambling that contribute to its allure and challenge.

Luck will determine all wins and losses in gambling. No matter how experienced and knowledgeable a person is about gambling, he or she will not be as successful as a lucky person. Luck is the most important factor in gambling.
But as you said, the loss rate is still quite large compared to the win rate. Even if he's lucky, he gambled without following the rules. Leads to addiction. Of course, no one is constantly lucky. Let's not set a big goal of winning. Gambling is entertainment. If you win, then it's luck. Don't lose control of yourself, causing severe consequences in gambling.

The gambling win and loss was based on the luck of your game.If you have better luck,you can make the better game win.But the gamblers will start to scold the gambling site after the loss in the gambling site,but the fact is the gamblers will not praise about the gambling site about the big win in the forum.They start to hide their win from their relatives,So they will free from the loan request from their relatives.Most of the gamblers who successful in the gambling was face this issue.The probability was the reason for the win,the gamblers should skip all the unnecessary bets.So he can get free from the some of the loss of money in the gambling site.

Good for you that it works. Just keep it that way and maintained being cool. But on the other hand, there are gamblers that still not satisfied with anything, regardless if they are winning or losing. When winning, stopping is not even an option because why they should stop when they are currently winning. In the case of losing, stopping is not even an option too since why they should stop if they need to chase those losses.

Gambler's satisfaction really has no limit. They will push and push until being wrecked.

The problem is of course in terms of expectations, most gamblers, especially those who have just come to get involved, usually they always have high hopes especially if in the early stages of their involvement they are given a win by the casino, and also with the encouragement of the skills they have that when they win they will think that all the wins are purely the result of the skills and understanding they  have in the world of sports. Of course this is a very wrong understanding and not recommended, because after all, gambling will never be far from the name of risk.

That is the importance of proper understanding in gambling, sometimes even though you already have a pretty good understanding of the point of view on gambling it can not always keep you okay, because obviously a lot of temptations come when you are gambling and it disturbs  your brain and mind, so that is why there are still quite a lot of gamblers who violate the limits and controls that they have built at the beginning and finally they are stuck in a cycle of chasing victory or recovering.

For people who understand and understand gambling, then this is quite a surprising thing that they are so motivated to pursue victory, while this type of gambling is based on luck. but the name is also a gambling addict, it is not their name if they do not behave carelessly when playing gambling. And to be able to be controlled in gambling and in terms of financial management, for them it is a difficult thing to do. And struggle for that, to be able to determine when he has to play and when he has to stop playing gambling, it is very difficult for them to do. because they do not have firmness and self-discipline, even though someone has tried to remind him.


There is nothing wrong with ambition and gambling. Because casinos never force anyone to play gambling. And involving an ambition and emotions when gambling, it must be involved so that we can enjoy the thrill and excitement of gambling. But if all of that is out of our control then everything will turn into a quite dangerous condition because it will result in heavy losses.

Gambling stands alone and so is our ambition, but we can pattern our own ambition to work inline to the way we gamble in other for all to turn into a desired expectations, when we are gambling, where our mind focus at is likely to be the most of our expectations and that alone can be described as where our ambition at the moment lies, but after which we are done gambling, do we still have the same desirability as to how we've got earlier while we are gambling or not anymore.

You forgot to tell us what will you do if the conditions are not met after a certain session?

Surely, you will just try and try until you hit that target series, right? What if the bankroll were wrecked first before even reaching that? It means you still have a chance to fall on the psychological effect of gambling you were referring to.

But it's nice to see that you were able to create an approach that is effective and good for you in the long run.

Professionals thinking in this direction. But even understanding such things, a long series of losses can knock you out of your emotional balance. In fact, I also began to think this way, but it was shaped by my thorny and very expensive experience in gambling for more than 10 years during which I saw a lot.

A beginner will not understand this, he will think with one bet that will change everything and this is his main mistake. It's like poor eyesight, which does not allow us to see further, but only those things that are located very close to us. Your thinking allows us to see far. This kind of thinking brings me pleasure and allows me to remain more calm.

it's like I said before. also casinos do not force people to gamble, it's just that this is all caused by their own actions that make them stuck in the gambling cycle and also harm themselves. are you saying emotions should be involved in gambling?
If that's the case I disagree, because involving emotions in gambling is disastrous for them, where they will experience a phase of greed that can drain their finances, and this has been widely discussed, that gambling with emotions is not a good thing.  someone who gambles well or wisely, can be destroyed instantly if their emotions peak when they gamble, this will make them lose self-control, where they initially play nicely can become chaotic just because of the emotions that arise. big losses are also caused by emotions that control us. It's not just gambling, all things that are done with emotions will certainly give less good or less than optimal results, not to mention less good can even end badly. also the fact is that emotion is a thing where the feelings that a person has can rebel. so I think gambling with emotions is not a good solution, because it will only bring problems or disasters that will harm them in large numbers. so it's better to gamble without emotions.

another statement, there are also many people or gamblers who gamble with emotions, where this happens when they are annoyed with the winnings that are difficult to get, so there are not a few gamblers who lose a lot of money too in not a small amount. and this has become a habit that often happens, where they are always emotional when playing gambling. i think they should minimize their emotions so that it does not become a reckless game, the losses that occur because of their emotions that rise and reckless gambling occurs without thinking about the risks that will occur. maybe in the beginning they have a target, and when they have reached the target curiosity can accompany them and make them continue the game and also with great risks that can be avoided but the chances are small. it's not strange that this happens because I myself often find things like this in my own environment, because it happened to my friend too, even when he was going to gamble and said "now if you get a win, you have to spend it". I'm sick of him saying that because it always doesn't match what he does. 

I think there is a possibility that they still want to do gambling again because their hopes cannot be eliminated just like that, especially with the big wins that every gambler everywhere wants. Because someone who gambles especially with those who put great hopes in gambling to get a big win in gambling, when they gamble and get a loss they will not stop because the hope is still there, so it is likely that they will continue to try gambling until their hopes are fulfilled, sometimes also when they get a big win they don't cash it in because there will be a sense of dissatisfaction that encourages them to continue to get even bigger wins, they can target it at the beginning, but they can also change their goals when they reach the desired target. It is difficult to refrain from gambling especially when they get a win and they choose to continue the game because maybe they think their luck is still there and still valid so they think they can still get a bigger win. in my opinion, putting excessive hopes on gambling is not good, because it can trap us there and it is difficult to get out of that cycle.

I agree. I think it's best to not aim for or set an expectation or goal of a desired number of wins because, as long as you don't get that number of wins, you will not stop playing until you notice that you are losing and losing more money. I think it's best that, for example, you limit yourself to betting on 10 bets only, and no matter what the result is, like 5-5 or 9-1 wins or losses, you will accept it even if the majority of the bets are majority. In that way, you will minimise your losses and will not overspend or lose control over the bets.

You are right; don't focus on the winnings alone. Also, don't always monitor your winnings; just keep on betting based on your number of sets of bets. I do this kind of method by setting up a set of bets, and whether I win or lose doesn't matter; I will accept it.

Let's say you set aside $1000 for 10 games, and you staked $100 on each game with 5 odds and above. If you win 4 out of the 10 games, it means you'd get atleast $2000, making a profit $1000. However, it's easier said than done. You're not the first person to have thought about this or tried even it? Winning a single bet of 2 odds sometimes, is not a walk in the park, talk less of 5 odds. I know some of persons like playing big odds but it's not that easy to get 4/10. If you're successful the first time, you may not be the second time.

I agree with this.

Considering the other outcomes before achieving the main goal should be done as well to avoid disappointment from unexpected turn of events. Because it is really possible that you will run out of fund before achieving that series of wins. Then if that would be the worse case scenario, then you should foresee it and make a back up game plan. It isn't easy to achieve winning results bet after bets. There will be times you won't get as much luck as you expected and you predicted so you should leave a room for error and other possibilities. It's good to establish your boundaries in this case so you won't go overboard your capabilities.

Putting hope or even increasing expectations is the same as you want something with the assumption that 90% must happen and obviously with such an approach it is very likely that if the final result loses then your level of disappointment will be much higher because from the beginning you have set the amount you want to win, not only that, on the other hand I think there will still be other trials or that means when you do manage to win but the amount cannot reach the amount you expected then obviously you will not stop and instead continue, the question is whether you will be able to reach such an amount? not necessarily and maybe you even run out of all your previous winnings.

That is one approach that is not recommended and should be avoided, as you said that if they lose then obviously they will continue to play by depositing more money to achieve the planned victory, yes your advice is quite good, and in conclusion never target the amount of victory because it is the beginning of many disasters, they must return to the initial understanding that gambling is nothing more than a game of chance, so there is no certainty whatsoever so it makes no sense if you target the amount of victory. Bet with the amount you can afford and don't put any expectations, after all if you are lucky then you will win.

4 winnings out of 10 bets is quiet hard to achieve in gambling. I personally experienced a first win trap with slots and what happened next was a losing streak so for me this depends on your budget if you can have that 10 bets but usually I can only afford like three bets win or loss. I am not that lucky with slots even before that is why I refrain playing games like that.

You can't remain profitable in gambling, the only way to remain profitable is to not gamble at all, because there is no game that will give you constant winning without taking money from you, if you have this mind of staying in profit while gambling you are making this whole thing up.

Gambling is not a business where you sell brand to consumers, gambling is not a job where you get paid after using your skills at work, gambling is an act of predicting an outcome of something far greater beyond the human sense, we can't see the future.

Have less expectation, rely more on your job and business, risk small money in gambling, have hopes and dreams on your skills, you will live a healthy life compare to someone who believes in nonsense, you are not in control, those who make money on your own losses are the true profit earners.

Slots are game of luck and you can never be sure of your chances of winning in slot games, in contrast to sports betting which can still be predicted and allows you to increase your chances of winning.
Although I also not sure about what the OP said about a series of betting strategies like that, this cannot be related to you betting on slot games.
Try to understand again what the OP meant.

By betting on sports, we can increase our chances of winning at the odds we choose and feel it is worth betting on, but there are various outcomes that could occur that could result in the bet we make losing.
Choosing number of bets and being able to get several wins may seem easy and if we think about it, it feels like we can win more, but in real terms the only thing that happens is defeat.
I bet in sports betting with analysis and predictions based on experience and knowledge but it is still difficult to win as stated by the OP.

If this is on sports betting, yes, that's right because it's one side vs the other side, one side will only win and you are good if you belong on the winning side.However,  if it's for the casino, it's the house that wins most of the time, and with this, you'll likely lose your money in the long run if you think of getting into it seriously.

Your skills might earn you money in other way, like business or job. So the amount you win should be carefully manage, don't put it all in gambling especially if you don't have the skills to win, just play for fun and your life will be peaceful. People would only hate gambling if they lose so much, but in reality, they hate themselves for being irresponsble.
