Is gambling attracted to emotion or luck

[Betwrong]

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?

All are pure coincidences no way you can have 10 out of 10 on this kind of scenario, gambling is luck based and it's a proven fact, it's a mystery if 10 out of 10 you get the same results, whether you are in a good or bad mood once the house edge plays out you will eventually lose, not even the best strategy and the best gambler can escape the house edge.

Yes, those are pure coincidences, but I disagree with you regarding "10 out of 10". I myself was winning 13-14 times in a row betting with 50% win chance, and in other times was losing same amount of times in a row.

Regarding "escaping the house edge", I think gamblers pay too much attention to the HE overall. Normally you lose because of bad luck, 1% to 5% house edge affects your win chance exactly to the same degree.

Well, it happened to me too but is not just happened because of one emotion or calculation but a game of chance which people here refered to as a mere coincidence. Any time you prepared your mind to pay gambling you will lose because you are playing with emotion. Playing gambling is not sometimes the same with trading crypto currency and others in my opinion.

When you bet without preparation and win, then it is luck. I personally gamble in sports always with preparation and calculation and I have several times got big wins this way, maybe it's gambling with emotions that in reality can still give me a win. But, when I gamble at the casino then I gamble carelessly or do not have preparation and do not have calculations, the results can win and lose. With these two differences, I only feel that even if I win in any way and lose in any way, at least the emotional and luck factors always accompany.

The house is about revenue which also means you can win sometimes because thats part of the game, really determining your likely odds is not about how anyone feels that day but more about how many won recently perhaps.   I much prefer sports betting for that reason, the crowd can be completely wrong on the odds and prospects for a game and you can just focus on the game itself.   Slots and other games its much harder to determine the chances I will win big, just set a budget and keep to it because another day can completely different and its best to try it all on just one day.

That's a pretty decent strategy to have higher chances of winning and not wasting money in the regular gambling games.
I have played many games in gambling websites and most often lost it all while I have also made some bets in bitcoin and ETH price predictions and won most of them.
I guess I should stick to predictions rather than gambling games to save a buck

Emotion is just a normal part but doesnt mean that it would affect luck chance for you to win the game. There's no factor that could affect your winning probabilities.

Yeah it's normal and in general doesn't affect the luck of the games we are playing at all nevertheless I believe that emotions also could become one of the factors to encourage winning probabilities. Why? In case someone is carried away by his emotions while gambling I'm pretty sure his calculations or decisions that he made at the time would be mess up the gameplay particularly in several card games such as BJ or poker with certain decks.

As you say your emotions do not change the probabilities of the games but can surely change the outcome for you if you are unable to control them, if you are a professional gambler and you can actually beat the casinos if you lose control of your emotions then very soon you're going to lose money as well, and even if you are not a professional gambler and you do it just for fun if you lose control of your emotions you could find yourself very quickly in a difficult situation that you were not planning to get into because you simply lost control of how much money you are betting.

in short, it is how you react with your gambling results. but definitely, most gambling games are based on luck and not your emotions. the outcome has nothing to do with your emotions. but whatever the results are, it is how you approach the outcome. many people are just associating some kind of "voodoo" rituals thinking that it may have effect on the results, but i believe it is only psychological as it has nothing to do with the luck you have in winning games.

That's right, your reaction to the outcomes that you get matter, if you are able to take a loss and still remain calm then even if you lose money if you are not going to lose that much because you are going to be still in complete control over yourself and your money, but someone that loses and then goes completely crazy and loses control of himself has a very high chance of losing the rest of his capital simply because he is unable to accept a loss.

You could be happy and think you will have a great day and later you will find out that it's not your lucky day at all, if you are happy and having a great day don't think it will contribute to your success in winning in the gambling, you don't have control and sometimes we tend to be careless when we are full of emotion, it's better to bet when you are more relaxed.

Winning a bet is about your strategy and how lucky the gambler is. I agree with you, when one can't control his/her emotions when gambling, it can lead to losing much Funds. You can come to a Gambling hall feeling happy and probably lose on your bets. From my experience, I win most of my bets when I gamble for fun.

I think not any strategy or technical with gambling, just lucky when you got jack pot or win with bigger odds in any betting game, how come skill and strategy in gambling because if you can remember with all your strategy why you can loss more. Maybe if you play betting ten time how many time you win, not more one or two time and most loss, this called with lucky and not any technical or strategy in gambling.

Some do use strategies and techniques in some specific gambling except in slots, craps and crash games it's just pressing a button and finding luck.
But in every gambling there must be a good chance of course relying on the jackpot is impossible but all that can happen if it is a lucky day for you then some people gamble for fun because they don't want to be part of the income then of course this will be destroyed if mixed in there.
But everyone will surely find a loophole where he will have more luck.

Most gamblers who can't control their emotions losses more and instead having fun, stress, and regrets await them.
Realizing how much money they've loss and thinking why they lose control while playing.


You need to have a specific goal and if you already achieved that, better to stop, is all on you, how you'll take the outcome and how will
you satisfied yourself whatever happened after you play.

Luck always the big difference when you gamble, best to use it in the right manner.

The trouble that many gamblers have is often seeing patterns where none exist and not recognizing that previous events are entirely independent of future events. The title of the thread is a clear example of this mindset - gambling is an activity where emotion or luck generally plays little part over the long term. If you are playing a game against the house where they have an edge, you might get up over a few short term wins, but they know that greed is a very powerful force that causes most people to think they will win even more and ultimately the math works out to the averages. Like a share of a company does not know nor care who owns it, a chip on a table or a slot machine does not care who is paying for the next game - it just sucks your money away regardless.

Aside from the money you are making via signature campaign you are currently participating do you make regular money from playing gambling. In other words, is gambling your source of income? Since you said you are good at it for I will love to put more effort so that I can good money out of playing gambling.

The effort is not enough, you need to be smart so you'll make money in gambling consistently, you should also be honest with yourself by identifying your weakness as you need to improve that in order to be consistent in gambling. I'm sure many have tried to consider gambling as their source of income, however, it's not that easy but since it's not impossible, we all have a chance here but stick to the reality that gambling house never loses in overall.

gambling of course is not far from luck in order to win, but there are some games that of course need strategy and are not purely based on luck like card games.  For example, if you play poker but only rely on luck, your winning percentage is definitely 40:60.  strategy, emotion and luck are the winning packages for gamblers, it's hard to separate.

Just always remember the words that's always been said to others.

That, you only gamble with the amount of money you afford to lose. Whether you put more efforts on it, results are unknown and it varies from time to time.

When one looses in gambling,it tends to be painful,but when you bet highly on a game,putting all your money on that particular game,and it cuts,that is when the feeling of frustration will come,and your emotion gets involved.on the other hand,when a person wins a game,there is every tendency that a feeling of happiness will be activated.

When we always trying to gamble remember that the gambling house always wins but of course, the other player ignore this because they know the possibilities of winning the game. There are a lot of people willing to risk they have of having a chance to win a single game. Gambling moderately we are already old enough to know the right and wrong and needs for wants. Always gambling moderately.

No one wants to lose most of the time and that's why it's painful whenever our bets are losing. And as we win, we're connecting it sometimes that we're lucky even we did some good predictions related to sports betting or we really are lucky when we're winning those luck-based games If your bets are winning, you'll be having a good mood and you think that it's making your day so you have that feeling to bet more for which makes you think that you're really lucky based on your emotion.

If you place big money in the game and lose it, the frustration will come to you and you hope that you can turn the time back and only use small money to gamble. But that was already happening and you can not reverse it but you can prevent that thing from happening again in the future by limiting the money you will use to gamble. Your emotion can become bigger, no matter if you win or lose and all of that result might make you continue gambling because you want to make money from gambling.

this could varry from the person that gambles because there are a gambler that can accept defeat and they are still enjoying after that but all is going to feel negative if they are betting a huge amount and lost it but emotions dont get activated only after a loss but its active right at the start .
 along with emotions luck is also involved in every gambling session we make , its either a badluck or a goodluck that could happen .

[pawanjain]

I mostly play Dice and don't really know how to play other games and I how wish I know how to play games like you do. Can you or anyone else can please help me with some explanation on how other games are been played for I will love to know.

You can learn any game to play as there are literally so many guides available on the internet.
Also, there's a website called btcgosu.com which has many guides for crypto games.
They also provide website reviews for many gambling websites.

Apart from that I must tell you that only learn to gamble in other games if you are gambling for fun and not to earn profits.

Gambling arises in a person through emotions. Books have been written about it. The fact that you also depend on happiness is a fact. The moment a player realizes this, it can also do something with the emotions and turn into uncertainty and fear. These two concepts go hand in hand.
