I'm trying to analyze behavioral trends on gamblers. Does anyone have a source to compare mass amounts of data from moneypot or other sites? Or do you have some evidence?

Basically, what I'm trying to figure out is:

1) Do people gamble with odds that are above or below 50/50?
2) How do people respond to large losses (in the event of conservative betting) or large wins (in the opposite event)

I think that every person has unique style of gambling. Yes there are some methods that you can share, but anyway each person gamble how he or she feels.

I suggest to add poll to your thread to get real time data to make better analysis. Everyone person react differently to losses and wins. Some people come out with thread by accusing the gambling site at loss other just accept the reality and keep silent. It would be nice to know by your poll if you are interested to add one.

everyone gamble with their own way, I think the gambler has always try and develop new method and sharpen their skill, i think most of the gambler ever gamble below 50/50 odds, an professional gambler always know how to handle lost, when they lost they will cool down and will back again to gamble and if they win big for sure there will be a party

If you watch different users bets placed on a gambling site you can soon work out the strategy they use. The most common one I see is either martingale with 33% odds or very high odd bets with small amounts.

People gamble in different ways and base in what they fee and what they thinkl, if they want some fun, if they want some big income and I dont think if they want some big loss. Because everyone has their own way to gamble and take the risks of it whether you lose and especially when you win.

since you are researching about games that have fixed house edge , how people gamble isn't important actually
this research would be great for poker and sportsbetting , since there are some gamblers who beat these games
but in fixed house edge , gamblers behavior or how they bet doesn't matter actually
just my opinion

all the users here can only speculate about your questions and give you some guesses at best which can even be so far off from the reality.

the only way of knowing this is either you have your own gambling site and analyze your site's stats or by asking a gambling site to give you some anonymous stats from their players over time so you can do some analysis of your own, but i don't think they will release this information if you don't have a good reason for it because it can be considered as an invasion of their user's privacy.

well I dont have any stats to back it up but I've been gambling for over 2 decades
and can tell you for sure when people lose and keep loosing they chase and make
their bets bigger. When they should do the opposite, when your on a hot run you
should bump up your bets and when your cold you should make smaller bets.

But I definitely would be interested seeing the numbers as well.

Gamblers differ from one another because some play small amounts, some are real gamblers which put high stakes to their bets. There's no way how you can track how people gamble in slots or in roulette but you can have a look at where gamblers put their money on in soccer. I personally use the app futbol24 in my phone and I check everyday the votes to different teams.  I am not saying you are going to win, as in fact you can't even doing so, but this is just to give you an idea where the money of the betters go and you see how gamblers gamble.

The most  and always response of players when he losses, is to bet high to get his loss + a profit, its like a natural instinct on gamblers that make them loose more.

each person has a strategy and the way different in gambling, but I prefer gambling with this type of bet, somehow I am very happy in terms of predicting, it might make my brain think, like playing chess, and honestly, it was very fun and thrilling than playing dice. I used to play with the possibility of betting on the biggest and strongest team

Have found some spreadsheets of data on this page (black links in the middle of the page)
That data may not be from online gambling but it may give you some point of reference.

From my own perspective I can tell that I always bet on dice games with odds lower than 50/50. With promotion money (or faucet) I go for max multiplier.
Huge win, isn't it obvious? Happiness, equal to the amount won and a little more betting, just to equalize the balance(even number of credits). Bigger losses get me discouraged quickly, usually I end at two consecutive losses.

Yes, all gamblers strategy is not same, everyone can create a there own strategy, So if that plan works they will follow that until they lose more money. Once they think that strategy is losing then they will make another plan. So it depends on our daily experience. Every loss can make us create new strategy. And yes real gamblers know when to stop gambling.

That is a valid way to sort gamblers.  Many people are happy to bet money on propositions that have a negative rate of return.  That is the definition of a casino or a lottery.  The other type of gambling involves waiting until you have an advantage (greater than 50/50) before increasing the bet size.  This is what a very few blackjack players and many poker players are able to do.  They bet less when they don't have an advantage, and more when they do have an advantage.

So, you can best sort the people who gamble with odds that are above or below 50/50 just by observing the games they play.

Lol I have an unique style of gambling ^^ its called losing all your money in under a minutes. No but seriously there are different styles of gambling just like there different styles of everything else in the world. Some are fast some are slow. Some big some small. Depend on your bankroll and what you willing to be and not to bet. I'm sure though we can all assume that the bigger the bankroll the bigger the bets being taken by the owner of that specific bankroll.

For a successful game of cards you need to learn to recognize the styles of play of their opponents. Teach them to identify, you can use against your opponents the correct strategy and tactics that will give you a much better chance of winning.

Irrespective of whatever method anyone might use is still get down to the issue of chance and nothing else however some who have the opportunity to understand how it works are only able to increase their chance of winning and not with certainty that they will win and in the same vain reduce their chances of losing only base on chance... For the loss part, large is relative as what might be large to you might be peanut to another... My 2 cents...

I think most of gamblers gamble on under then the 50/50 chances especialy in football when making parlays and if they go for a single small bet they go for higher then the 50/50 chances and with higher bets they go with under
