The Worlds Luckiest Countries

[michkima]

So basically, they are saying that luck favors the rich. That is really baseless in my opinion. Luck cannot be affected by how rich you are or where you live or what race you are. The dice will roll the same regardless of any factor. Unless the casinos are cheating everyone else but the top 5 on the list, then we can assume this is correct.

There is no such thing as luck.
People tend to explain big winnings as luck, but it's just a term that helps them to understand why their friend can win the lottery and they cannot. There's nothing behind the term, no lucky charms, no guardian angels.

Basically you described luck. There is luck, but there is no way we can influence it, ie. increase it or change it in anyway or trigger it like an RPG game. Luck is what we call the chance that we won something or was able to get whatever that is based on a particular chance. It is real but just simply a concept.

It was kind of funny reading this from a poker site regarding the worlds luckiest countries.
They have this kind of methology on how did they arrived on the conclusion.
If you will notice, Top 5 are the those 1st world country and the rest specially
the bottom 5 3rd world.

Here's the top 5 (out of 22). Just look at were your country at and you will
be the judge  

1. UK

That's mean most the winner it's come from the countries that on the list, i dont think they has counting with right maybe some gambler is using vpn due the countries on the list is the most countries are used by people that use vpn.

I guess that is what OPs trying to say, but others just misunderstand it and just include Olympics in this topic. The top 5 countries that OP mentioned in those countries that excel in gambling when it comes to poker, maybe those countries do like to play poker the most, that is why they are use on playing it, and mostly, they are winning all of the time.

Because it is not impossible that your winnings count is more than your lost count because of your experience about a certain game in a gambling site.

For me japan is the number 1 luckiest countries all over the world because the technology in japan is high tech and it is for 1st world country. The people are so genius when it comes to technology. So therefore the robot is on made on japan which is better result to game changer. Japan also is better than china because of technology.

I always thought luck to be metaphysical. A chance that we'll win something is simply a chance. You always have a chance of winning, but to me luck is something more than that. Luck is when someone wins a jackpot or scores multiple wins in a row. It's like managing to achieve a goal with a very low chance of success.

I think for me the luckiest country are usa because they are in place where many good places and they money are also high price..
Also their money are more used than the other currency.. this is what i notice to them.. also they are tall and sexy than the asian country they have different breeds.. black and white .

[mrcash02]

Looks it doesn't depend only of luck, because luck is random and can be everywhere, any country. The first world countries are on the top because they are smarter to play, they have better skills and can defeat their opponents this way. If it would depend only of luck, we wouldn't have five first world's countries on the top of this list.

[FiiNALiZE]

When comparing luck to professional skill strategy it is pretty hard to get an accurate statistic because of the population of the countries as a whole. A full report of the population of the countries plus the skill strategy put down with a percentage would be interesting to see.

I think that USA would have the highest percentage because of Las Vegas and how it usually referenced in Mainstream Movies. It's cool to see that there is a bunch of people gambling from everywhere in the world.

Thanks OP.

[justdimin]

It's cool to see that there is a bunch of people gambling from everywhere in the world.

When more people are into gambling, we can see few of them being lucky. But I am not seeing UK going for gambling in the intensive way how USA go. Yet, UK is leading this list.

Long back I read, based on astrology we can classify lands on this earth and based on planet view each country will be having different luck factors. I am not believing into this theory still it just reminding me that read. Anyway interesting topic, I am just searching where my country sits.

[Mike Mayor]

I think it is because those are the countries where most of the money comes from. When you say luck or should mean win % ? Or do you mean amount ? Which is more luck, someone betting 1btc on 100x and making 100btc or someone betting 1000btc on 2x and making 2000btc ?

It will depend on what you see as luck a d how they used it to come up with these statistics. They are very interesting though anyway.

The only thing I know was Japan is the luckiest one country, because if you check their technology was very high tech, and they are also declared to some of their places where bitcoin was being used as currency legally.

[autada]

They measure luck in so many ways. My way is to measure luck in casinos. Actually UK and USA citizens lost the most wealth in casino and gambling sites. I don't think they are the most lucky countries, China is no.17, haha they lost much wealth in casinos too.

[bamboylee]

I think we should not take the list seriously. Because the formula they used has nothing to do on how a country become lucky. 

we can say a  country is lucky if the elected officials  are not greedy, corrupt and selfish. there is good governance and zero corruption. the welfare of its citizens are their top priorities. they provide , free education, stable job and high salaries to suffice the basic needs of a family.

[swogerino]

I don't believe this list for a simple reason. How come there is Nigeria listed there as one of the luckiest country in the world and the Netherlands isn't or Denmark,Sweden and Norway ? These countries are known to everyone that the level of happiness in them is one of the highest if not the highest. This list is just a joke made by the author.

You are right i dont know on what things or what they are thinking about creating this list and there are countries which cant be considered that they do gamble since the standard of living cant sustain on playing gambling they would rather choose food than to gamble.Btw my country is on the middle list.

Agreed, these are lists that are generated based on very few factors specifically the wealth and related significance in the digital growth. I believe this has to be surveyed based on the happiness people felt being in the country and the government in a satisfied manner fulfilling all citizen requirement without any partiality.

Yes i too agree on this, Japan got too intelligent people in their country. And they are grown up too fast. They met a lot of problems from other countries and also from nature, but still, they are number one in technology. And yes Japan govt agreed that the people could use Bitcoin legally in their country. This is the best example for how Japanese will entertain new technologies.

And also because of the number of gamblers, the number of gamblers from these countries is the highest of the other countries. I think the list of the lucky states is just a hoax. If there is something like this, this list should be made by interviewing all the gamblers, and ask them all how lucky they are.

That's basically true, we just see they are lucky because most gamblers are coming from that country.
With the number of lucky people, it is sill obvious that they are only few compared to the losers who are living in that county.
