There is a chance that the nature of the game has something to do with the gender that plays in that game most. There is no official study for this yet, but I am thinking that we will find more females playing and drawn to luck-based games than skill-based games because of how difficult the process of learning skill-based games may be.

Another observation about luck-based games that a new gambler with an interest in them has to know is that they have the potential to make you, as a gambler, spend more money gambling than skill-based games.

What do you think?

That's mostly true for the newbies.

They believe mostly about beginners luck and it's not painful that they're going to lose as they start. There's no feeling yet so that the potential losses are bigger than the typical gambler that gambles everyday.

But as for the reference of games, there's really no stat on what they want to play whether luck based games or the skilled base games.

Although they all meet in the middle when they have gained enough experience and will tell mostly that it's the time they'll start developing their favorite games and not.

Skilled based games are still luck based games also. All matches are still luck based. But I understand your question.

It is true that casino games can be addictive than sport betting. But in sport there are still horse,  dog racing and some other short minute games. Also there are in-play which are all very addictive also. Also there are virtual matches that can take less than 30 seconds. Also are esports that can take less than 5 to 12 minutes. All these are in sport and they can be very addictive.

I do not have enough information about women likely to gamble on casino games than betting on sport matches. But generally people gamble on casinos than they bet on sport matches.

I could have believed the same too if not for my previous experience. In my case, it's quite the opposite. In most cases, I find myself very lucky to win more when I'm playing games that have to do with luck compared to how often I record winning with sports betting. 
 
But I have a female friend who doesn't joke with sports predictions, dice, and some other games that will require the player to make some calculations, and she always has luck on that side. She said it's too boring to just be playing a game that she can't, by herself, analyse her chances of winning.

What are the difference between skill based and luck base game? To me any game that requires one to be a probability statement are all luck base games especially that which you said of female having much chances of winning. To me I would say to anyone who are so devoted can play in that role depending on their love, taste and hunger for the skill based game. But in casino if betting on skill based game they requires one to be either a lover of it and someone who already knows how the functions effectively to be able to know how to gamble on it or play's it in casino to secure winning.

Well, I think its more on an opinion or your own observation, because to me I think it depends on the person who eill play gambling, as for me those who plays luck based gambling games is those who wants to just play gambling without hassle or without thinking as you will just play and let your luck works, but those who want some thrill and excitement will most likely play gambling games that will consist of opponent and some challenge when they are playing, so in short it depends on the liking of the gambler.

I think you are right on this. I know a good number of female gamblers and they love luck based games. Unlike before that the few female gamblers play only sports bet, now casinos are becoming very popular. I even observed that there is a surge of such game in my city, the awareness is spreading among the youths females inclusive. Just a major win by few people will recruit hundreds of people so the business keeps expanding. They even have groups where various casino games are discussed including the popular Slots.

Instant games can be relatively more addicting so I agree especially with how fast you can lose your money lol. In playing slots as well, people are more prone into thinking they're close to hitting the bonus/spins hence would further bet.

As for the game preference, I think it has more to do with people's interest. For instance, I've seen old women who are so much into mahjong and local card games -- you still need luck with them but strategy plays a good part as well. But we would need a wide scale data for better conclusion though.

So are you calling women stupid? lol.  Kinda feels like what you're saying here.  I would say in general that women tend to gamble less than men do.  I don't think it's a huge gap between the two sexes but in general it sure seems this way.  I think if anything it's that women tend to be a bit more conservative with their money than men are, so they often see gambling as a bit reckless.  I think they also might just simply not gamble as much as if that's the case, since they don't take time to learn skill based games you would probably find them playing luck based games when they do. 

Gambling is skills + luck= winning, so regardless of which of the games you choose you still rely on both factors to arrive at a good ground at the end of the day and if yoiylose you should know that luck wasn't on your side for that day.

But to be sincere with you, females pays more attentions to detail than men, and that means a woman can easily develop gambling skills and sticking to them more than men, so I won't agree with saying that females plays more luck based games than skills based games.

My advice is we need to control our emotions in order to stay longer and spending more money was really a big sacrifice compared to skill based game. Gambling on luck isn't reliable compared to skill based games like in sports betting, that's why it's essential that you have huge funds to capitalize this activity. The risk is involved many times, so we need to prepare rather than being regretful n the near future.

It seems like he is implying such conclusion. But he may have such opinion because he is looking at the numbers of women who are into gambling like sportsbetting or poker. But as you mentioned, women tend to be conservative with money and so as much as possible they don't want to spend their money on chances. So who do you think are smarter when it comes to managing money?

In games such as poker, blackjack and even sports betting, the bettor needs to have a foundation in order to make a decision on each play/bet... so in fact we have a combination of luck and skill, and they prove to be the most capable of providing good results.
The fact is that a good player who is satisfied with his destiny in the game... whether in games that involve more skill or luck, will always have a better chance of achieving better results, whether financial or well-being (mental satisfaction) .

I prefer games of skill, and when it comes to sports betting, what I see is that even in championships or teams of which I have a good level of knowledge, if I am unlucky, the consequences are quite painful.... it's necessary to manage each bet well as there are many possibilities that can change the result in any type of guess.

That could be right because some females doesn't want to think much about analysis or search for many news so they have interest in the gambling games based on luck games. They thinks that they playing gambling only for have fun and not trying to make money.
But I think some other females are trying to learn about gambling games based on skills and they willing to learn more about analysis on betting. They will search for how to have good skills in analyzing the games so they can try their skill in betting.
Choosing the gambling games based on skills or luck will depends on each person because if they don't want to feel difficult in playing gambling games, they will use gambling based on luck. They will only playing gambling games based on skills if they curious with all of the matters such as analyzing the match and else.

I don't agree with your first observation. And I don't like how you sound in saying that "we will find more females playing and drawn to luck-based games than skill-based games because of how difficult the process of learning skill-based games may be." What do you imply with this?

As far as your second observation is concerned, there seems to be no solid basis for it. I think it doesn't matter whether a game is luck-based or skill-based. The main factor is interest and fun. If the new game that you learn is fun and interesting, then you will end up spending more money and time playing on it regardless if it's luck-based or not. But if you don't find fun in it, you'd move to another game. That it is luck-based or skill-based is secondary.

I kind of agree on the insight of females being drawn to luck based games over skill based ones because they don't like the complicated stuff or being bombarded with a whole instruction manual  ;D!

But don't you think this is a topic of its own to say one gambling area needs skill while the other doesn't  :P because as far as I know, all games need the skill to be beaten...if we are going to rely on luck then we are gambling which reduces are winning chances generally!
And if we said skill wasn't needed in one gambling area then players would be winning more often but the truth of the matter is that skill is needed to show you know what you are doing.

Agreed, because this is a probability based game it's easy to get hooked in things you aren't sure about which is why more people play luck based games.

Well, it depends on what luck-based games you mean, there are some games that involve a stroke of luck and chances but considering with experience and skills to the significant role of strategy and psychology. I saw fearful female players in poker for example, who really manage their cards well and they really knew the curve of the game. There are males too. So, I'm saying it's not a matter of gender but a matter of interest.

Maybe you are seeing more females in luck-based games because it became a battle of risk and returned, most women actually good when it terms of intuitions, and majority of men area just risking it all then take it back in other games (men have that immature side sometimes). That is why you end up with that statement. Maybe I'm wrong but it's just my opinion that it falls in interest.

I think it has nothing to do with gender and it doesn't matter whether woman or man it will be the same, they will play in game that is loved and it is not about luck or skill.
Besides, many female gamblers play in games of skill like poker, but the problem is that nowadays many play in online casinos so we can't find more accurate overall percentage.

Besides, if it about money, there will be no difference between games of luck or games of skill because it all comes back to how the gamblers bet, if bet in large amounts then the money will still run out faster.
It just that for games with skill base it can be very easy for gamblers to win, this will depend greatly on the ability and skill of each gambler in completing the game.

In my observations, women are less prone to risk than men. In fact, it is easy to see by looking around. Men are much more likely to go into professions where there is risk. Accordingly, they take more risks. Professions such as police officer, rescuer, firefighter, trader, gambler - these are all predominantly male occupations. Even among addicted gamblers, men are much more common. I saw video interviews with addicted gamblers, there were 3-4-5 times fewer women than men. Nature itself pushes a man to take risks. He must take risks in order to earn money.

this is not entirely true. While it's somehow true that the female gender tend to want more of softer and less brain draining adventures, times have changed a lot now and most of them can actually go into complex adventures as long as money is involved. I would rather say that luck based games is more of what newbies that and random people generally get themselves involved in for the sake of getting small returns while skill based games is for experience and matured gambling.

I agree with you on this. Most of the games that are completely luck based happen too fast that you can play multiple of them and go on playing more of them as much as you want within a day which drains your finance out in less than no time. Virtual soccer is a typical example where the usual 90 minutes of football is shortened to just 3 minutes in most instances and you just make your bet  on the outcome of the match that's not even played by real humans. Within an hour of you so desired, you can play up to ten games making different stakes and id it's your unlucky day, you're lost too much at a small spam of time. Most gamblers that are looking for quick means of earning money from thier gambling normally prefer this form of gambling because it doesn't require more of an effort from you.

Interesting observation that could spark further research. What prompted this observation? I would love to see some examples based on your experience. Some "luck based games" are slots although at some point one needs a small level of skill to win. Poker is skill based. Anyways, I need to pay close attention to this observation in the casinos.

Yes..I agree. The newbie will keep thinking that their luck is in the next game and the next and the next and before they know, their time and money is gone. And they'll go on chasing their losses resulting in more losses and the onset of gambling addiction.

We're already in 21st century, it's surprising that someone still talk about male vs female in this era.

Anyone regardless their sex can do anything they want, there are many females are working as a data scientist, developer, doctor etc that require high knowledge in STEM.

Why there are more men than women in work or anything that related to money? because women are forced to raise their kids, which make them can't continue their career. Same in gambling, men are looking to make money in gambling.

It's the opposite from my perspective or maybe it's just cognitive bias because I mostly see us men dominate the gambling sphere and i've noticed women tend to take the safer route when it's presented.
 
For the second part, I agree even if you have a slight interest in gambling it's very easy to get drawn into the activity until it becomes a hobby. Most gambling sites do their best to make their casinos accessible and it's why a lot of them don't have a limit on deposits.

Even though some other users mentioned that it's just an observation, and I agree that something not backed by any statistical data isn't anything more, I understand the OP's point of view. Statistically, men were always more sport-oriented, mostly with football, basketball, boxing, etc. With that being said, the observation stems from the fact that men are usually the ones watching sports, thus betting on them. Nothing has to do with the difficulty skill-based games require. All types of gambling are reliant on luck; placing a few bets on football isn't a nuclear science.

Moreover, it's way easier to get carried away with luck-based games as a newbie; add beginner luck to the equation, and you have the perfect combination. Most gamblers start with such games.

I agree with the OP. Women primarily count on winning at the casino, simply hoping for luck and most likely to have fun. Surely among women, there are sports experts, but most likely their number is not large; however, betting on fast games does not require much knowledge, which is attractive due to its simplicity. In addition, gambling addiction appears more often in men, since they come up with such things that they can correctly calculate the next step, which will lead to winning. Women are more prudent; if they are unlucky several times, they can replenish their need for dopamine by shopping.

It is not a comparison topic about men versus women. It is a comparison about women. That women are likely interested in casinos than bookies. Which might be true because men are the ones that are watching sport most. But it is not in comparison with men. And generally, people know that men are involved in gambling than women. Be it casino or bookies.

I don't think most females will be playing gambling games based on the luck because if females have interest to betting, they will try to follow males to place their bet. Regarding if females have skill in analyze or not, if they want to choose gambling games based on skills to have fun, they will still use that games. Gambling can attracts people's attention, no matters if they are females or males because gambling offers a chance to win big money.

That makes people comes to casino and playing their favorite gambling games. Those people are female and male so they will use their own favorite gambling games which gambling games based on the luck and skills.

I wouldn't call women stupid either, like you said they are more concervative with their money than men. So most of them don't bother about learning a skill to gamble, like analyzing matches, they'll rather play luck based games that doesn't require any special skills. Although I've seen women that are very passionate about sports bets but you can't compare their numbers with men.

I believe that more gamblers are into casino games, especially women, because it's not everybody that's into sports, infact you don't need to have any particular game interest to gamble in a casino. So with this I think that luck based games will have an edge over skill based games.

Not only the profitability but also due to the simplicity of the game. You will just need to spin and wait for the result since pure luck while skill-based game needs some analysis in able to make just single bet. On top of that, skill-based game has time restrictions which means a user bet has a cooldown that needs to wait in able to check the result.

Gambler especially newbie preferred quick and less complicated game like slots since it can be played immediately right after they register without thinking much. Just spin and win!

This is the reason why slot games is always the selling point of an online casino because newbie preferred it despite its RTP is low compared to skill based game.

I find a lot of women in Bingo. Here in our country, there is this local gambling site and there are a lot of women playing the game. How do I know? The names popping out of the chatbox.
I think we won't see much in sports betting because there are not many women's sports while others don't like men's sports too. So I agree, there's a chance that most women are in luck-based games and I think that's okay. There are also men who prefer luck-based games rather than doing deep analysis in sports betting or other strategy-based games.
For online gambling business, it doesn't matter as long as we giving away out money. :D

You know, their appeal to people is very interesting. Though the reality is that these games are made with the odds stacked against you, we have all heard the legends of people striking the jackpot. Its a calculated risk.
Luck-based games appeal because of their unpredictability and promise of rapid reward. People search for rewards; these games appeal to that basic impulse. Even a tiny amount of the excitement of winning might set off a dopamine spike that easily leads one to become hooked.

These games, meanwhile, are not a rapid money maker. These are kinds of entertainment that one should savor sensibly. Should you be playing, do so with a clear head and a defined budget. Dont pursue your losses; know when to turn away.

It is not just about females but even males that are new to gambling or males with no much knowledge about games would want to play gambling based on luck. From my experience and people I know who are into gambling,  it is common that most people even started with games they know nothing about but all they need to do is just to make guess or predictions believing that win the game. Their is not bad playing games like this, but it is so bad when one goes into like being ignorance, not really understand what gambling is all about.

This is the kind of game a gambler needs to know it is important to understand the limit of playing and to play with amount you can afford to lose. Beginners believe they can always hit the luck and they still need to continue to play.

Women don't like much stress when it comes to gambling because most of them don't play much games or sports when they were young. They will prefer to dance and sing but men are more into sports and other games. However, gambling is still more of luck than skills because if two professionals are gambling with poker pvp their luck will be based on the cards they pick.

It is the same way that a luck-based game can make you hit the jackpot without having the knowledge of the game. Both luck-based game and skill game are the same when it comes to gambling and if you don't quit the game at the right time, you will lose more or when you are gambling to make profit.

No, that's discrimination. Since you presented no data, we don't assume that skill-based games are hard or difficult for female gamblers to play; I'd like to assume it's more on the character rather than the gender.
That's just your observation. I've seen cockfighting and horse racing bettors losing a lot of money, and of course, Drake has been losing millions on skill based sports betting. that's one fact that destroys your assumption.

If such speculation were to be given in the 1990s, then such data would have been slightly understandable, unlike now in this 21st century in which with the help of technology, you can't name any field where you can't find women of competent capacities doing greatly there, of which the gambling industry is no different, as despite how skill base game may seems hard, we have got some females who are expert in it on a low key (i.e judging from the global standard point of view).

That's true, but that doesn't mean that in skill-base games, that luck is not needed, because every gambler whether luck-base or skill base all needs an atom of luck to be successful.

Well, in my opinion, I think that gambling depends on luck no matter the game. Skill based game like sports (soccer for example) also depends on luck, I have seen someone that staked a very huge amount, I can not be precise about the amount but I guess it was close to $1k, the man stake the amount on two games, one was just 1.1 odd and the second was 1.3 odd but he lost the bet. Normally, the prediction was perfect but the outcome of the game was just unexpected. The skill game like poker also depends on luck, because you can not be very certain about the outcome. One can get disappointed in gambling on the game they attached all their hope to.

Take luck out of gambling and what you have left is nothing and Gambling will become nonexistent since the gambler winning depends on luck so if the factors for winning is off, it then means that the business for both the gambler and the casino is overs since no gambler will want to keep gambling when he sure that he will not win, because winning in gambling is 90% based on luck so without luck you are just 10% lucked in with whatever skills you think you have developed over the time, and one other challenge for skills based in games is that, not all games you have developed the skills to beat the house on, and even in football betting, there is still the possibility of failing at your team analysis and at some point depends on luck to ever win at those games.
I still remember the last bet I took was around 1.25 odds and on football live game, and when I staked 0.0001 bitcoin I was high hoped to win based on my team's analysis, but since the luck was not on my side, I still ended up losing that bet and then I realised that luck is a vital factors in Gambling and we shouldn't expect so much based on skills.

Doesnt matter whether you are a male or female, when it comes to choices whether luck based games or strategic ones will really be just that basing or depending into someones preference.
No matter how technical strategic based games like sports betting or card games, doesnt mean that women wont really be able to learn it out. Why there's so much degradation when it comes to other gender?
Honestly, its not really just that too complicated on dealing up with gambling neither of both categories. This is something that will really be that easy if you do really just that know on what you are doing.
The wrong thing on here is that on the moment that you do find yourself having some issues because once you do lost control then losing money will really be just that too big and could result
into devastation on which this is the primary issue when dealing up with gambling.

Gambling skill based games are few. So you should name the ones you are referring to precisely, but yes I think there are more women gambling on slots and bingo, raffles or loteries, than Blackjack, Baccarat, roulette, poker or craps from what I heard and saw. Anyway you should always stay very cautious about skill based games, like Poker for example. Because players can be not always human but being bots instead. Some can even cheat if they have informations, edge from the platform.

Not at all. Please don't get me wrong.

Thank you for getting my point across and helping to clear some misunderstandings. The comparison was simply between luck- and skill-based games and the women in them.

You're trying to strike gold inside a septic tank.

Luck's not gender-based, nor is there a gender propensity for game types. There's no such thing as a certain gender having more luck than the other or ladies being more drawn towards luck-based games than skill-based games, and if that's how you think shit works within and outside the gambling world then you might want to start touching grass and reading the bible every now and then cause that's some clear-cut sign that you need God in your life. But I digress.

How do you even come up with shit like this in the first place lol. Where did you draw this conclusion from? You made the missus place bets for you and instead of her losing she won more? Or you made someone, a newcomer in the gambling industry, gamble inside a casino? Cause if those were the case the answer is literally slapping you in the face already my g.

That's skewed and stupid. Statistics do not lie and I say you try looking that up instead of trying to be so profound that you're already sounding like a 4channer.

You don't have to sound so rude.

You can disagree with my observations and present your arguments without trying to sound all-knowing and insulting using words like "stupid," because using such words to describe my observations means that all those that agree with my observation have stupidity in them too.

I have try to observe and i know this is not general and probably this statement can be debatable but according to the psychology research which i have read the main reason why women want to gambling is because they want to escape from the stress so they want to makes gambling as the thing that can make them forget about the problems they have and mostly when starting to gamble women is very likes to play the game luck based this because the women likes to playing simple games which not required the skill

And according to the research too slots is one of the popular game which women is very often to play this because to playing this game it's not required special skill because slots is very simple to learned and this game also can be considered as luck based game and i think from this research we can see it that to gamble women is more likely to interested to playing luck based games rather than skill based games

This is just a share of your taughts and as it's got no statistical backing that will get us understanding and confirming how true it is, then I personally cannot completely buy into this idea even if it's proven with many valid points probably to show validity, both genders are usually involved in luck based game and skill based game but for the reason of the disparity, it does feels like the "easy" one is that which catches the interest of the female gender the most and the males would want to be logical.

Almost the ones that you mentioned are not skilled based so far you are gambling against the casino. Some may be skilled based if you do not gamble with the casino but competing with another person in a way that house edge is not involved. Example of skilled based is poker that gambling sites let people to compete between themselves. Not even all pokers are skilled based.

Yea, that was exactly what I was saying. Someone can have very high hope in a particular prediction, and the high hope could be as a result of their skill in making successful predictions or because of the high hope they have in the team they are betting on. This can make some gamblers stake a big amount in just one small odd, but it will be surprising how the game is going to go against the person's prediction. These examples you gave have happened to me regularly.

Luck is still the determining factor in every gambling games, being them sports betting or traditional casino games. You can be skilled in soccer, know all players, teams, strategies, statistics, but things can still go completely on the opposite you predicted, resulting in losses. The only game I would consider to be based on skills in gambling would be in case the gambler was the player himself, but hardly ever you will find this possibility. For an example, to bet on a chess match, where you are the bettor and also the player at same time.

From my understanding, the split between luck-based and skill-based games was a smart marketing strategy from casinos to boost their businesses and launch a new hype which is efficient gathering new customers in every layers of society. After all, most gamblers still lose on long run, doesn't matter how "skilled" they are. That is what should be taken into consideration and never neglected.

I actually think that there are more number of females who are playing skill-based games because females are known to be more intelligent than the males. It is because of their soft nature and they mostly stay indoors, so they will just use their time studying instead.

As for the males, they are known for their masculine nature, so they can only risk more money in the game and this game is usually a luck-based game like slots for example. Sots are a famous gambling game, I think it is due to its exciting gameplay. I know others are exciting too but they don't have a unique animation and sound just like the Slots game has. Slots game do also has a bonus round which other games don't have and this makes the experience more entertaining and profitable if in case our luck strikes with us.

Skill-based games might be hard to learn but they are still very rewarding once one do so and is successful with his attempts. When I say the word rewarding, I don't only mean that they are more winnable and profitable but also the feeling of accomplishment is still there.

Lastly, in terms of spending money in each type of games, I think it was in skill-based games are the ones where we can spend more money because their odds are only low, however the gamblers can still spend more money in luck-based games because wins here are much harder to hit due to their randomness and the potential of earning a massive amount of profits.

The reason for gambler to have too much of hope on their games is probably because of their previous results, if he has been winning all the time (maybe 80%) his hope on the bet will be too much, mostly if he staked with too much money. But the interesting thing is that no matter how high the gamblers hope is, he still needs luck for him to win if not his hopes will be lost when he lost the bet.

Maybe luck-based games draw more women because they are easier and do not require the same complex learning curve as skill-based games. While there has been no formal research on this, the observation is valid. However, it is also important to consider that luck-based games can make players spend more money since they are easy and luring, too so the new gambler has to mind his pocket.

And, of course, every player has their own preferences and playing style. What is most important is that one understands the risks and advantages of each type of game before deciding to get involved, and always plays with wisdom and responsibility, whichever game that may be. With a proper approach, gambling can be enjoyable while keeping it free from jeopardizing one's finances or personal well-being.

Yeah it’s really just going to come down to gambling preference at that point. Some people don’t care to play poker because there are a lot of foundational rules and strategies that one must know where as the slot machine you crank back that know and let the numbers fly and hope you’re lucky! I would think that women in general don’t gamble as much as men do, that’s just my gut idk if that’s a real thing like the OP is saying either.

I don't think there's a big difference in that factor. Luck-based or skill-based games probably just differ in chances, but if a gambler is really interested in gambling and feels challenged, they'll continue to gamble to try to find the secret to winning, hence addiction is likely possible. This doesn't focus on the kind of game but on how a gambler handles the game. If you can't control yourself, then you'll likely spend more money on gambling—simple as that.

For me, all gambling games are actually luck-based games that’s why we often lose in gambling regardless of what type of game we are playing, but the fact that the house certainly has all the edge, then if we can’t be lucky, we will have no chances to win in gambling. Even with skill-based games, experience won’t actually guarantee that you’ll win later in your game, but with luck, it does guarantee that you will definitely make good profits in the end.

Luck based games can be most addictive because it generates more profits than skilled based games in my own opinion, if only the gambler already understands the techniques involved, this takes quite some time to do and extend how much time spent on playing. Even in the lucked based games there is some series of skills to apply during the process to enable a high chances of winning, it still shows some level of skills to be implied and both are just based on luck as well.

You are right, mate. What gives some gamblers overconfidence in their bets is the level of success they have archived from their previous bets. Secondly, if a gambler trusts a team or a particular player so much that they believe that the team usually performs 90% well in all their matches, the gambler will be so confident in his bet because he feels that the team will not disappoint him, or the gambler believes that anytime a particular player is featured in a match, the team usually wins the game, which can also make a gambler so overconfident. 

Yeah women aren't that care and don't give so much effort on something that they don't really interested. I think there are many women into gambling because their partner are gamblers.

Nah, luck based games are more easier, faster and have a chance to surprise you in terms of the return, unlike skill based games where you already know how big the money you could win. This is why luck based games are more popular, many people are unskilled and they want faster results.

It's easy to trust a team to win and feel confident in them, but the real challenge is whether they can cover the spread. The majority of bettors don't bet on the moneyline odds; they choose the point spread because it offers better odds for either team. You can bet on the underdog or the favorites to cover the spread, so even if you bet on a team that loses, as long as they cover the spread, your bet will win. This is the reality now because if you're a bettor looking to increase your chances of winning, you won't consistently bet on odds like 1.30 or below.

I'd say yes, but only in terms of quantity. In the level of skill itself? It might just be males dominating right now due to the sheer number of males that we have in the first place but who knows, there might be some females out there who could dominate males, just that they don't really play as much as males. But anyway, I don't really think there's any purpose for such comparisons in the first place, just let people play their games.

As for the second question, 100% people spend more on luck-based ones. It's no surprise why lotteries have sky-high prizes. People often don't have the time to try to win something after all, only those passionate about the game themselves would actually try to do so.

I see it more that there will be more women involved in gambling based on luck because most women are too bored at home and they want to find an activity that can occupy their free time and at the same time have the opportunity to earn money - which they think can help increase their family income. The convenience provided by the game based on luck is also an important factor, because they don't need to bother learning the rules since they only need to tap their cellphone screen.

That you could have provided data instead of just stating that because you think so and that's it. As far as I can see, in one source (https://playtoday.co/blog/stats/male-vs-female-gambling-statistics/) they say that the percentage of male female gamblers is 64% to 36%, but in e-sports betting the difference would only be 3% which is not consistent with what you think.

Although in another source (https://worldmetrics.org/poker-statistics/) we see that the estimated percentage of women poker players is 15-20%, which would be in line with what you think.

And they still seem to me to be weak sources based on poor statistics, but they have more substance than what you simply think, and paint a more complex picture.

You are kind of right on this but not females I would say most females are drawn to lukc based games.. naturally women are not patient enough to learn whatever takes them a long period of time and if we are talking about sports betting in particular it's not something most women can sit down to analyze.. even the female punters on different social media platforms don't analyze their games what they do is that they pick random selections from different sites and just do a little editing...luck based games will definitely make you spend more in the long run, skilled based games would help mitigate losses

Another reason why women prefer random games like slot machines that rely on luck over skill-based gambling is because as we know that most gambling is done by men, meaning gambling is more active in male environments which makes it easier for them to find various information related to strategies or other skills that can be used to increase their chances of winning when they are involved in skill-based gambling. So I think one of the reasons why women prefer luck-based gambling over skill is not because they are not patient enough but because not many women are involved in gambling compared to men so that makes women not have more interest in getting involved in skill-based games and prefer easy-to-do games such as luck-based games.

Yes, even when you have done your perfect analysis of your games, and choose your very team you've believe they will win, luck still have to be another factor that helps you in wining your games.

Foe newbies gamblers theirs are basically on luck they haven't known anything,  using myself for instance, The very first day I tried betting that's exactly the day I won my first bet and that was how the journey started,  don't even no anything, I went into a betting and choose team that I love and support to win and that was it.

I am not going to be stereotype and say that females aren't much involved in betting or gambling, but the truth and the fact is that we have more male in this sector than females, and if we want to do our investigation properly we would discover that some of the females now involved where brought on by a male.

As every human would, we will always go for the one that our chances of winning is higher, I personally would go for a luck based game than a skilled based game especially when I have little to no idea about the skilled based game. There are people who has actually won very big from the luck based games than the skilled based games, take Lotto for example where people win millions of dollars. Also to add to this, if I had good knowledge of a game then I would go for it .

It sure does, because we don't really know what the results will be, we are just predicting it as close as possible to the result but it doesn't mean it's 100 percent correct. So both skill and luck should be there to able to win a bet. Well, that's only for sports betting because it's different in casino games like slots.
Everything that is happening there is based on algorithms that will given to you and most of the time they are losing streaks at the first 50 - 100 bets before we could even see that we are lucky enough to bump into a good algorithm that gives out a high amount of multipliers.

At least with the analysis I do it can increase the chances of winning, even if the final result is still a factor of luck.
Once I chose a good team and was sure to win, in the end I lost, for example last week Barcelona lost 4-2 away and we were sure that Barcelona would win but because I was unlucky, I had to lose the bet.

Yeah that's how gambling games are, all rely on luck even beginners just choose the important thing to win, winning is also lucky not because he analyzes.

Quick observation:

Luck based games do not require any skill. Skill based does. Rest is just you adding random words to it. :)
There is no need to complicate it all, it's just a clear difference and the way you categorize both of these also matters.

You cannot use skills or patterns in a luck based game, for example Roulette.

To be on a more profitable side it's better to play skilled based games, luck based games might make you lose a lot of money. Take Casinos for example,they are all luck based games because they do not require any plan or strategy. Crash games don't require any statistics all you have to do is fund your account and hope for the best and this applies in every other casino games. Skilled games on the other hand gives the gambler a little advantage when you have properly analyzed your selections although it doesn't guarantee Profit but it's certainly going to reduce your losses

The level of luck needed in skilled based games can't be compared to luck based games, they are both gambling but the skilled based games can put you in profit more than games that are based on luck. In the aspect of the addiction you mentioned, this is one of the reasons why playing luck based games is a bad idea because you might get addicted to and this might cause some complications. Skills Based games are different: football, horse racing, basketball and so on, these sports can be profitable to you if you are acquainted with them
