Is gambling attracted to emotion or luck

[GreatArkansas]

I don't know if this is affiliated to luck or just emotions. Does this happens to others?

If you know what gambling is, you will know the answer. Here are the keywords, "chance", "luck".
The emotion here got another role aside from gambling itself, emotion can be used in how you do gambling like the way you place bets or how you bet against the odds. That's why emotions in gambling are also important.

Gambling is more about luck and your emotion can prevent that luck to come especially if you gamble out of control and more of a greed so I think they are quiet related.

If you have a good emotion towards gambling, you might attract luck just like in the Chinese feng shui, if you’re happy and more on a positive vibes, good luck will come to you, well this will depend on your belief as well.

I have noticed that sometimes when I gamble, I used to win unexpectedly even when I never intended to bet. The most shocking thing is that I usually win when my mind is not that prepared to gamble probably jokingly. Anything I'm focused and well prepared I usually lose. I don't know if this is affiliated to luck or just emotions. Does this happens to others?

Then bet when you don't feel playing lol

There's no explanation why that happened. Emotions will just dictate what will be your next step to do after a win or loss.

Just take it as a grain of salt as you might think that will always be the case.

Your experience of why you lose if you are focus and on the other hand, you are losing when focus, luck plays a role but that was something you can't control. In terms of emotions, 100% it doesn't have to do with why you win or lose.

Just take it easy. There's no such thing as your emotions "literally control" your gambling result. The one it affects instead is your behavior and that leads to win or lose.

Actually depends on what game is he playing neither a strategic game or pure luck based so we cant really tell the other factors that affect.

Emotions or luck?  Luck would be the greatest factor no matter what games you are involved into and as said  by others that its  just coincidence

on the time you have played  and the outcome you able to experience  on  that particular time.

Well, luck has a big role in order for us to win and it doesnt matter if you're too focus or just randomly place your bet. Thats why its always best to gamble with less expectation, this way you wont assume that your money will grow in gambling. We should take it lightly as if we're just enjoying the game, if ever we win just think that its an incentives.

BTW op what games are you usually play for winning unexpectedly even you're not focus?

Having a good emotion to  attract luck how? What if you are continually disappointed?Having good emotions here to me is being very positive towards the bet   you placed.  What if you are being positive,and you continually loose your gambling,does it mean you do not have emotions?

Shhh online casinos sense fear. 

For strategy games I guess so, you wouldn't be able to decide or plan a strategy when hastily do the hero call because you are too eager to get back and take a win. But if this game is just slot, lottery, or dice, it must have been luck. I once accidentally click the MAX when I tried playing Dice and eventually won 0.001xBTC in the past and I was not minding at all because I was in bed.

[imstillthebest]

you could have won if gambling is attracted to emotions because you are prepared but the opposite is happening in your case.
  i think this happen to me sometimes but i dont believe that it worked like that . its only in our head that we think it was working this way but what is sure is that gambling is attracted to our luck.
 when we are lucky we will win no matter what kind of emotions we are feeling that day.

[Lorence.xD]

Like the other users say, it's just a coincidence and I don't think it's anything other than that even if it happens more often than you can think of. Remember that luck isn't real, it's just a bunch of numbers that we just don't understand as a layman so we attribute it to luck like how we attribute things we can't explain as miracles.

[Jawhead999]

If you play luck-based games than it's really pure of luck, there's no such like casino control your money or make you lose if you use some strategy. IMO some strategy can make your bankroll wipe out (e.g. martingale) while when you play without expect to win you only play with small amount money and have more chance to hit the jackpot.

While strategy-based games you need at least understand the games and of course strategy to play, you will never win if you doesn't have basic skill of that games.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

I think it's more an emotion on your side but coincidence on the game, if you think about it, the game has a RNG so it's unlikely that it reads your emotion. You on the other hand is euphoric because you win the least you expected it while at the same time thinking that you might be able to stretch your luck.

[Wexnident]

It's luck. I don't even know why you related it to emotions to begin with. It's a completely biased judgment imo. Luck can't be influenced by any factors at all, and is mostly being connected to some things, like what you said, emotions, due to it actually being unexplainable. The human mind always wants to connect things properly in their mind, even if their explanation doesn't really make any sense if studied deeply. They force it to make enough sense, so that they could actually accept it and explain it, simple as that. What you did wasn't any different, but it still baffles me as to why people think of that when gambling games, in its purest sense, is always based on luck.

I am pretty sure that the winning rate of your bets does not depend on whether you were serious and strained when you placed them or whether you placed them in a relaxed state, because in the end your state of mind at the time of the bet placement has no influence at all at the outcome of the sports matches you bet on. With things that you can influence, you may well achieve much better results if you don't get so uptight about it and take it more lightly. I think your impressions have something to do with selective perception. That is to say, these unexpected winnings have simply impressed themselves on you much more clearly than the rest of your bets.

Emotions will make you uncontrollable and in the end you have no victory instead you get destruction and defeat, it's a gamble bro.

Can you say victory, of course it deserves to be called luck, if you win in a row, maybe your luck is good at that time.

There are hundreds of problems that arise in gambling depending on the level of a person professionally in betting, one of the problems as you mentioned luck and emotion, everyone involved in gambling has experienced it.

a more serious problem, maybe you will go crazy, if you bet on a scam gambling site, if you win _$$$.

If this method work well for you I think you should stick to it however I don't believe this unexpected win will last long it's more of coincidence, I do also wish to bet against my preferred stake when I am losing however emotions wouldn't allow me to do so whereas the outcome is usually against me thus try the strategy for some time before taking a decisive decision on it.
Gambling is pure luck although many gamblers devises strategy without any emotions in a bid to gamble and win consistently though some gamblers are having a breakthrough while others are having an difficult time.

I've lost a couple of bets in EURO 2020 matches despite maintaining my research. It was somewhat unexpected that the underdog team performed so well. As much as I enjoy gambling, I consider myself not a regular gambler. I must admit, gambling is a pure game of luck. Pure gambling terms used in casino games, but also in sports gaming your luck performs. Sporting events always involve some degree of luck in their outcome, in my experience.

Maybe this is just a coincidence.
Usually, if you don't intend to gamble but still gamble and win because you are not fixated on results, different when you prepare to gamble, there will definitely be a target that is sometimes burdensome and often if until a certain time the results are not as you wish it will make you take the final decision that make a bigger loss.
I never gamble accidentally because when I start gambling I will make a deposit first, almost never leave funds on gambling websites, so need preparation.

[hahay]

Every player or gambler will certainly feel or experience things or events like that, no wonder when this happens to me because whether I am ready or not I bet I continue to experience both things. With that said, I think it's clear that winning in gambling is a factor of luck. You can realize with that experience that when you are not ready or just bet in a reckless way you can still win, so I think it is clear that it is a luck factor and not emotions in it. Likewise when you prepare everything and include emotions in the bet, the situation still allows you to win which means you are still lucky.

this kind of thinking is how superstitions are made in gambling(or in anything really). emotion doesn't affect your chance of winning. it is just a coincidence. winning unexpectedly happens to everyone(including me). just because it happened to you more often than the others doesn't mean that you, not expecting to win, would increase your chance of winning.

[zanezane]

I don't think so, gambling is all about luck. The dealer and the casino don't know if you expect a win or not. In terms of our mindset, not expecting a win is probably better because we don't trick our mind. If we expect to win and lose instead than our brain might tell us that we deserve the win, and just need to bet one more time. This could a downward spiral.

I don't necessarily agree with gambling being luck but you are wrong that dealers don't know if you will win or not, I think that if the dealer has a good sleight of hand can make them the ultimate decider if you are going to win or not.
