Gambling strategies & tips from professional players

[Dutchyyy]

Hi everybody,

Many people think that casino play is purely based on luck. It isn’t entirely.
While there is an element of luck to playing at a casino, there is also a large amount of skill involved. The elements that the player has in their own control can be manipulated in a number of ways to make a game more or, in some cases, less likely to go your way.

There are a lot of different strategies for playing poker, dice, baccarat, roulette, etc. You can also find useful tips and tricks from professional players.

How about you, is it important for you to learn, or do you have your own strategies and techniques?

Thanks,
Karl from Bitcasino

If the game has a negative expectation value, and If you can't physically manipulate a slot, roulette or baccarat, count cards, etc., you will always be behind. No 'techniques' or tips could help you overcome the negative expectation.

This is the reason for me to stick to sports betting and poker. The only slots I'm playing are some penny slots, rarely and only for fun.

No strategy works in gambling long-run because that is the case winning will not be a problem anymore. No one beats the house if your strategy works it will get busted right away. I agree with some of the posts that this can be applied only to skill-based games such as sports betting, card games, but for games like dice and slots where luck is your friend no strategy or tips will not help you in the long-run as it gets busted.

That is so true.

These luck-based games is really hard to win since, well, you are basing yourself to luck. The tips people would be telling to those gamblers would be:

1. Stay out of it, and
2. Just bet an amount you can lose.

If they wanted a higher chances to win, stick to skill-based games like poker but they should remember that they are still gambling and they can't take down the house. It is just impossible.

A gambler can not manipulate, but well they can do that one or two time, but the rest of that, they will not do that and will lose their money.

If you stick to sports betting and poker, you should have good information about selecting the right team, and you should improve your skills and info to have a bigger chance to win. Sports betting and poker can be a good solution to gambling as that type of gambling game does not always rely on luck. But always be careful to manage your money to be used to gamble.

It wouldn't be gambling anymore if we'll not rely on luck because we all know that gambling has risks and that's what's making it more exciting. We could have our tricks and strategies but that couldn't guarantee us continuous winning because if that happens, most of us who are applying strategies and techniques would have become millionaires now.

There is a point with it, those skill-based gambling cannot guarantee you a straight win or a 100% win, it only gives you an advantage in the game, well that is way better than a luck-based on gambling on which you'll just going to wait for the output of the game and that kinda boring for me but there are still so many people who are playing those games because some of them have a huge amount of prize pool like a lotto roulette wherein you can be a millionaire someday once you have won the mega jackpot.

Yes I have my own startegies in different kinds of games, before did not use any startegy because I based only to the luck but I still won during that day. We need to know that using strategy will not gives you assurance that you win but increasing the chances of winning or pdecreasing of losing your money.

Tips and guide is very nice when you are beginner because you have idea what you are going to do, but after few days of playing gambling you must create your own startegy that can fit to your or you think it's gonna work but getting help each others is good like if you get it to the professional players who win a lot of money in playing gambling.

Gambling is like a zebra - black bar follows the white one and you  have to get off the black stripe and step onto the white one.

There always a probability that black bar will be 1000 games long while white - only 1 or 2 
Yep, this is not often to happen, but variance for dice games as i remember enough high (will check it later)

Interestingly enough, even in games where there is a dependence of the result of the game on skill, in the end the situation develops so that luck becomes decisive. This is mainly because in card games (or any other gambling) the skill ceiling is very low (compared to Go or Chess) and top players reach it easily.

I think the best tips when playing gambling is how we control our emotions. Do not play gambling but our emotions are not controlled,
we will continue to play until our capital runs out. If we play gambling with controlled emotions, I believe we know when to stop gambling. Do these
simple tips, we will be surprised by the results.

Actually this is the only *strategy* that works in gambling games which are purely based on luck. A gambler must know how to manage his bankroll properly to extend the period of time he can enjoy gambling while not bursting all his profits chances at once by impulsive behaviors.

I could compare the gambling activity to tasting a delicious dessert or meal: some people go avid over the food, eating fastly and agressively to finish it fast. For this reason they don't feel any pleasure in the end.
While others eat calmly, enjoying the flavors and the moment at all.

With gambling it's the same thing: those who become impulsive enjoy nothing, while the professional ones will enjoy each minute of their experience, probably playing more with less.

Well, I mostly consider using strategies as stress and time waste because strategies are of no use in games based on pure luck but sometimes I think, players who believe that strategies actually work, actually do gain and make money off gambling at a higher rate than those who play randomly, and it's because of psychology and placebo, because a player feels that their particular strategy is working will play with a more calm mind than one who's playing randomly and has the fear of loss, when we think positively, positiveness follows, even in luck games!
