Criteria of a good gambler

[DPrillio]

You list is good as it contains all the general necessary conditions to be a successful gambler. I would like some more important points to it. A gambler should not let ego come in his way. I've seen this be the downfall of what otherwise may have been a good professional gambler. Then you must not let the highs and lows affect you. If you cannot do this then you need to find another profession.

It is easy to put down list for the criteria of a good gambler but its always been a reality that only few could follow. But for me, if a gambler could know its limitation and have the ability to follow and avoid greediness then he/she is already posses a criteria to be called a good gambler.

It’s true because we can only think of these characteristics of a good gambler. But here is one thing that I would like to mention which is that every gambler can become a good gambler so I don’t see any criteria of a gambler. You said good gambler has some strategy with him but I would like to clear your concept here that gamblers have no strategies as gambling is luck based thing.

Anyone who can absolutely control themselves when it comes to gambling will always and easily be a good gambler simply by stating that what makes up a bad gambler anyway is the inability to control themselves until they finally become addicted and that is where the whole problem starts.

As long as you have the urge to gamble but can still place your head in the right direction without your impulse of thinking being affected then the rest is just going to be not easy even when you are losing. Moreover, there cannot be any single definition of being a god gambler due to with frustrations, a gambler may opt for anything.

Neither I think gambling as some good activity nor I will dare to make a good gambler category. If someone would be really smart, he won’t be found doing such lame activity in the first place. However, there is no doubt that a gambler who sets limit for himself and remains within those boundaries, he will be safe at the end. The amount lost will not hurt his capital a lot but remaining within limits is difficult.

I think one of the major criteria that you have missed in OP, is that a good gambler knows how to correctly balance risk and reward, and has a correct understanding of the true odds involved, without having their perception warped by media or promotional content.

For example, a good gambler knows that although the lottery has a $100m grand prize, there is a much less than 100M/1 chance of him winning by buying a dollar lottery ticket. Whereas a good gambler would rather bet on the $1m grand prize lottery that has a 1.5M/1, as statistically his equity is higher.

As for being warped by media, most new gamblers are warped as to the frequency of winning based on what they see on TV, when reality this neglects the millions of people that didn't win.

Criteria of a good gambler from my personal experience into gambling is to stay within limits and have expectations to a certain limit. When the expectation to win big strikes the mind automatically the risk that associate with gambling will also turns big which needs to be eliminated from the thought.

Sometimes human greed can't be control so anything can happen right ?
As long as they can recover their problem , I think it's OK.

With a great risk comes a great Profit that what the pro gambler after

Hah, I think you can't be a good gambler. Only if you play those skillful games.
Overall gambling, will lose you money. Maybe not instantly, but for sure! House always win.
That's a fact.

[gowobonyok]

all the gamblers hope to be like that, but in the end they get carried away and ultimately risking them and forget their commitment.

[mware]

gambler don't put gambling before more important things. Problem gamblers allow their habit to take priority over other parts of their lives. this should be avoided for gamblers

Greed is the main thing which leads the gamblers to deadly ends. It’s almost in the nature of every person from the start and nothing can be done to avoid this thing. Man has always been greedy in case of money and every time is put in loss when he thinks to earn more than is written in his luck. Recovery from gambling is very much difficult but nothing is impossible in this world.

Find another profession ? You just made gambling sound more like being a doctor or a lawyer and so on. This is a game of luck, and it should not in any way even be classified as a profession and in the long of it, you are bound to lose your money, so I do not know where people always get this idea from that gambling is a profession they can get some strategies to keep winning a lot of money. You think those who own the gambling platform are running some charity organization ? No way at all.

In other words, there could be no definite explanations for identifying a good gambler. It must be a complete different industry. You come and you go. No calculations of profits or losses. If you find good times, you may number your profits or else just cry out. No way to be a good gambler for all of us.

I think that all investing in the hope of rapid growth is not the best strategy. Everything else depends on the type of gambling, you need to be able to think and not make decisions with your feelings. The poker game, and successful players clearly reflects my approach to gambling.

A good gambler will not bet all his money on a single game, he will also know when to call it quits even when he is losing a lot of money.

That's what you called money management, you aim for long run than instant success because as a gambler we do not have the edge.
We can only win if we work smart, being emotional is a big hindrance, we should also think positive and at the same time, we have to do some effort.

Gambling is a very bad addiction and that the ones who are used to it invest all their money even if they make that investment in installments. They cannot stop themselves from gambling until and unless all their money is wasted in gambling as they are very much fond of doing so and that they keep on going for the ways using which they can get more money so that they can gamble even if this results in loss.

It doesn't depends on which game you are playing,it just depends on how he is playing like control manner and limits while betting .Yes you are little bit right most of the players will lose money in the long term but it doesn't mean everyone if you got enough lucky then you will probably will as much as bets but it is highly impossible that will happen.
But gambling doesn't for money making which was created for the fun if you missing it then you are nit a good gambler too.

Gamblers set their goal before they come to casinos but most of them failed to commit on that and they ended up losing the money. You can have this kind of skills but you must know how to fully commit on this and focus on your goal. Don't let your emotion ruin everything, this is a game of luck you'd better to be more wise.

Why can you say that? A gambler can be good anytime he/she wants to.They can be good if they played with honesty and not with quackery.A more experience gambler can be good if also he/she can't be a problem to his/her community.

An experience gambler will only play those games on which he is expert and will never waste his time and money in other games. By this way he increases his winning chances and no doubt he wins. Set a time and money limit for a single day and quit when the limit comes. Continue gambling will always ends in debts which is not the criteria of a good gambler.

every human is greedy. There is no one who does not like to have money but then there are those who know what the correct methods of achieving this are. This was the first category.

The second one includes all such people who do not like to work. They are a way too lazy and sloppy for earning money the hard way. Such people are always looking for shortcuts in life. Gamblers are this kind. Even after spending days in gambling, they deny the reality of this game.
