Do you think Voodoo works in Gambling Games?

[sweetbet]

Voodoo and black magic does exist, so it wouldn't surprise me to learn that some people might use it to win particular gambling games, but what is the real cost to the person using this dark power? A house haunting, diabolical possession, demonic attachment? The dark supernatural world definitely exists and it is never a good idea to mess with it for any reason.

[samputin]

Well, just because gambling is a game of chance doesn't necessarily mean that lucky charms, or superstition, or voodoo, or whatever you call it has something to do with your win or loss when you gamble.

Even strategies sometimes fail right? So what makes us so sure that bringing charms with us will guarantee our win? As I have said earlier, it's a game of chance. So anything can happen with our without lucky charms.

I also watched some local movie before with some scene of gambling (cock fighting), the guy has lucky charm, this charm is not only for gambling but also on his protection like he can easily dodge some bullets.

Is it "anting-anting" you're talking about here? Or maybe not? Just guessing, anyway.

I only know in the movie. If you already watch God of Gambler, you will see a spiritual has been used in the card game. But I think that will happen too in reality as we don't know who was used and who was not used. But if someone has used voodoo or spells, and he can win so much money, I guess the owner will suspicious, and they will check on that person. They don't want to see they are losing much money from that person, and they will make sure that the person is not using voodoo.

In that case, it's not voodoo but an actual hacking of the casinos system. I mean, how will we still believe in voodoo where in fact everything can be controlled through technology.

not all gamblers play online, there are many people who gamble directly like playing cards. if gambling in the online system certainly things like vodoo rumors that did not happen, maybe what he meant was gambling in certain places rumors about voodoo is always there.

I have always heard of people who win games with voodoo(charms/certain spiritual power).I know Voodoo is everywhere. They are said to use it to get accuracy in their predictions, permutation, casinos, throwing of dice etc while this will help to reduce to the bearest minimum their risks of loosing.
So, Do you also think this is true?

Even today, there are still many people who practice black magic and dark arts. I don't know actually how it works and haven't witness any so I don't know how true it is.

I only have read or watched a related example on Harry Potter. When Harry let Ron drunk the potion he had won in their potions class (forgot the name though) to let Ron perform well in their quidditch match. It's not actually gambling, but it's the only reference I remembered. Lol!

I voodoo my bets and I win them sometimes while I lose others. So, I think it's again luck.
If people were to win with voodoo, witches would have been the richest person in the world. But they aren't, neither are the future predictors or magicians.
So, it's not hard to realize voodoo is fake.

[TheUltraElite]

A few months or a year back there was a thread on superstitions and gambling and then there was a fortunetelling and gambling.

I laugh at these threads because I feel amused by the amount of effort these people go on into thinking that gambling outcomes can be known from beforehand. If it was so then casinos would never exist and speculative market trading would not be a risky thing to do. Heck you would even tell every accident that would happen to you and you would never die. Does that sound illogical? Of course it is illogical.

But these people who have lost money have been in such states of mind that even magical thinking makes sense to them.

I don't believe in something like that especially when the rolls are supposed to be provably fair/ generated by a hash. How could voodoo interact with code.. I do believe in God, though and I know there must be some divine power in the world, but AFAIK gambling is not one of His favourite activities. No matter what you use the house will still have that edge over you, be it 0.50% or 5%. It is statistically proven that whichever combinations with strategies, voodoo and who knows else won't beat the math in the long term.

This is probably the joke of the century  , spiritual power and other magical powers is used to fool people like you, if there is any magical power to foresee the future then they will make sure they have enough wealth of their own rather than selling those to make a living  . This is 2019 and still people are foolish enough to believe these spiritual powers to be successful in life which is pathetic.

Indeed, Voodoo dan black magic does exist but to be used to gamble online I think it makes no sense. I know people who use this kind of power but it's usually used to scare people and not work on online gambling. After all, without play gambling, I'm sure they will be rich with only relying on black magic or voodoo.

A gambler will do everything to win even to the extent in believing in such thing, some gamblers have their own lucky charms and things that they carry every time they gamble, they even have their own gambling prayers and rituals, but as long as they are not losing all their money and they keep winning, but in my opinion I do not believe in such thing because it's gambling and luck has a huge part in every game.

All things related to chants or beliefs in terms on how to increase their winning chance is totally Bullsh*t.There's no such thing about increasing your luck or minimizing the risk as small as possible but there were people who are really fan on following these beliefs but i would say that those winnings while using them up is just pure coincidence since we know that luck can come and go away on an instant and if we do win then we do put up on our minds that those chants or vodoo things did actually work and this wont be easily removed when you already got used to it.

The math? In lottery you have sometimes less than one chance on one million to win. It means one people playing every hour of his dear life wouldn't be able to play each number... and yet people wins... How do you explain that?

chants/beliefs/voodoo let say all of them are unreal but its possible to increase your luck and minimize your risk  . that can be dont when you set the settings in low risk whenever you play gambling or you can lower the number of multiplier/payout on the case of other games  . i agree, that those who believe are lucky to win while they apply these beliefs but the truth is that its only a mere co incident .  they can continue using it as long as it gives them a confidence on thier gameplay  .

I don't think this is true, in playing a gambling site it's all about making decision , if you are confident in your decision you can visualize the roll that will win and it could happen, gambling is a pure game of luck it is not something that we can totally control and I don't have an idea how Voodoo can do that, sometimes we experienced a long run of luck sometimes a long run of loss, that's all it is nothing more.

We already had some mega thread for this kind of discussion https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1774997.0
Beliefs or voodoo works is just all the same and just like what other most members do tell on here that this doesnt have
some sold proof that this does work.No factor will affect to increase your winning rate or luck rate while playing gambling
because being lucky is 100% random.

[Apes]

in an age of increasingly advanced technology there are still a people those who associate gambling with voodoo.  I am a person who does not believe in superstition, and thinks that gambling cannot be manipulated by magic tricks. if you want to win in gambling, use math,stat and some luck

1) I have always heard of people who win games with voodoo(charms/certain spiritual power). 2) I know Voodoo is everywhere. They are said to use it to get accuracy in their predictions, permutation, casinos, throwing of dice etc while this will help to reduce to the bearest minimum their risks of loosing.

I did a little digging, and everything you said wasn't even there.

1) Exactly! You're basing this on hearsays and nothing more. Voodoo isn't some kind of cult, it is just another Religion with different kinds of practices from other religions. You misunderstood the true intention of Voodoo; some centuries ago when "slave" was still a thing, it is stated that most of the slaves are Voodooists, that is their religion. When slavery was overthrown their practices were considered as "evil", their priests as "witchdoctors", and their gods were "denounced", leaving bad image to Voodoo. Holywood also had an influence on this when they depict/portray Voodoo in their movies as some kind of evil practice.

In Haiti, Voodoo practices are still relevant in politics, as a means of their speeches.

2) Now, I don't think you do. Maybe charms really work, but maybe it only works because the holders themselves believe it will work. Think it this way, if this really works then it should be very obvious right now, and many people are already relevant in gambling.

Think about this too, if as you said these people have assurance in their winnings then what about 2 gamblers that use both Voodoo practices, will they both win?

I also hear somebody that is asking for voodoo help in winning everything. Particularly this only focuses on love. Have you ever known the word 'Gayuma'? It is like the person who hit that was magically inloved with another person. I just never heard of somebody asking for voodoo to help them win gambling games. Probably a pendant maybe. like pendant of luck for example.

Vodoo or any kind of spell is not real. It's just created by playful minds of people. If voodoo does really work on gambling or anything then why those voodoo casters aren't rich? Don't fool youself for something that does not exist. Face the reality that gambling is just a game of luck. Not all are given a chance to win and change their life.

IMO, this does not work, but maybe for some people, this works

playing gambling using black magic does exist and there are still many who do it, the usual use of this is usually lottery players and sports betting.  in my country there are many cases like this, from offering sacrifices on sacred trees, praying in graves and raping virgin corpses just to win the lottery.
