Why is it so hard to win at gambling?

[YinShuiSiYuan]

It is good to keep in mind that the casino faces the same risks we do. In case a whale makes a few large bets and wins than this could really hurt a casino, and in the worst case even let them go brankcrupt if they don't have the necessary funds. Especially for new casinos trying to build up their brand the risk is high to not be able to cover large outflow of funds from the website. Gambling is a zero sum game, for us to win the casino needs to lose, and the casino has not unlimited funds. So in the end for us to win some other gambler has to lose that the casino can payout our winnings. Gambling is not designed that all players win and become rich. In my opinion we shouldn't be looking at gambling as game that we must win. There is a lot of randomness in gambling and only a lucky few player really manage to win big.

You have a good point but most of the time its the platform or casino that's the winner. How many times we hear that a casino got bankrupt because whales won huge bets, its mostly the other way around. The software used in casinos are patient protected and they are designed to keep the platform winning. When two gamblers gamble its the platform thats the winner.

Gambling is a risk and we all should be ready to face it if we want to gamble. Although their had not been much cases where gambling platforms fold or close due to lack of funds or due to gamblers having a great win that the gambling platform could not afford to pay their costumers. Addiction is one of the major problems of gamblers because the urge to gamble more is always there due to influence. We need to measure out risk to our gain so we can be sure that we do not make a wrong step that will affect our gambling lifestyle.

You're right man, it is really risky for a new casino to open and grow, if a whale comes to your casino and play and win, you have a big problem. But, as we've said, in my opinion, what I see is gambling industry that grow,

many casino open his new activity and only few close because of what we're sayed.

If it's made so easy then making money become easier which so everyone will become rich.

Winning in the bet solely depends on the probability so if you take a dice you have 1:6 of winning chances so it means 20% lets add two dices the chances will go too down and follows, if the chance of winning is high the rewards will be low and take lottery you have one in million chance but the rewards are too huge compared to the ticket money.

It is hard to win be it gambling or any other venture of life. Winning is not an easy thing.
In our culture - gambling is prohibited to we do not gamble. The only time we do is for fun, where the winners either get a lunch or a drink or a gift. But not more than this.

Involving in gambling activity is everyone's personal choice either it depends on culture or religion or whatever it maybe but betting is betting either you do it for rewards or for cash there is no difference. But with money it may get more riskier so anyone who like to bet with real money had to be aware that they can bear the loss if it happens.

Hello good day to all the members in this forum, Did you know that even if you win at gambling, you lose as well? Don't you think that's how it happened? and that’s the thing that I'd like to tackle about this topic, Because it’s hard to win at gambling, now if you want to know why? Join the conversation here.

 Honestly, I haven't seen a banker or a casino close; the bettor always loses; why is that?
And when we win, how do we feel like that? Isn't it the joy we feel, and we still want to win more and more? And when we feel like this, it is called Greed. So, in other words, the real winner is the Banker and not the gambler, so even if you win 30 times and on the 31st you bet on all the results, you lose, which means it doesn't matter what you won 30 times.

Now let's not prolong this conversation; what if one of your family (Father, Mother, Brother-Sister, or Wife) or relative (Uncle, Auntie) is addicted to gambling or becomes addicted? What do you do? Here is my answer as follows,

- Don't feel guilty

- Never ever blame yourself for their Addiction

Now, I'd like to know your additional perception of this discussion; let us share our knowledge
to grow more here, your opinion, advice, or suggestion is much appreciated.

It's hard to win in gambling if you don't have luck and certain strategies to make you win. The house will always have to win, and the bettors will not gonna take the winnings all the time. However, even if you have the luck and the strategies needed in a game, it does not guarantee profits but you can minimize your losses somehow. After all, gambling is a game of chance, something that we can never fully control its result.

By the way, I saw reports on TV where they talked about people who won a lot of money in gambling, but they are not motivational stories, on the contrary, they are sad stories. in gambling, in the case of lotteries, for example, a person can spend years playing and one day win millions of dollars (getting very rich) and looking at the cost of a lottery ticket, realize that it is a very low cost, that is even if the person plays for years the person will not be spending a lot of money on lottery tickets, but people who win the lottery even if they win millions of dollars they end up poor, because they don't value the money they won and from what I realized they are few people who win at gambling and do something good with their money in the real world. most end up losing everything they won in the gamble

I know what you mean, in fact, here in my country there are few of the lottery winners got received a millions of money in our currency. But in the end they still end up poor, because just like what you had said they didn't value the money they got in the lottery, they become too much generous to their neighbors, family until they never notice that there is nothing left to their own pocket, in short, it came up to realized in the end but its too late.

Involving in gambling activity is everyone's personal choice either it depends on culture or religion or whatever it maybe but betting is betting either you do it for rewards or for cash there is no difference. But with money it may get more riskier so anyone who like to bet with real money had to be aware that they can bear the loss if it happens.
 

True, it is their choice to spend how much money they want to gamble in the gambling games. But the problem in which I saw is that they never check it first the platform gambling if it is good one to enter in. Particularly, if they are newbies in this field of business industry. Anyway, I can't deny that gambling is really a temptation especially if this is the only way for the gamblers to earn fast and will depend in luck.

Gambling is already part of the human history.
So I guess, everyone of us have had experienced at one point in our lives.
And to those who keep gambling in their lives, they should know better.
That is right, if gambling was made easy. I guess, most of the population will be into gambling.
But the truth is, it is not. If this is not for you, better find your own passion that you think you can excel.

Those who have never checked a gambling platform will surely be disappointed if they find out that the gambling platform is not what they wanted. This happens because they only follow the advice of others when the advice does not necessarily work for them. Once they gamble, they will return to the gambling place, so if they return, they can use more money than before. This will trigger them to keep returning to the casino because the temptation from the casino is always on their mind. And if they are not careful with their money, they can lose even more money because they can lose more. This can be one of the reasons why they have difficulty winning at gambling.

In gambling, the casino always has the edge. 

For example, when playing roulette, the casino wins when 0 or 0 and 00 falls out. That is, the probability of winning for the casino is always higher than the probability of winning for the player. 

In addition, in critical situations, when the casino is threatened with bankruptcy, it can change the rules of the game.  For example, urgently stop the game (close the casino for a technical break).  The player does not have such an opportunity - he cannot interrupt the game in order to avoid bankruptcy. 

Therefore, as a rule, the player (in the process of gambling) cannot create major problems for the online casino.

My dad and i are gambling addicts. we have been playing online gambling together for a long time and it is done every day.
but even though my father and I are gambling addicts, we never consider gambling as a source of income because my father and I have jobs out there.. I play gambling just to fill my spare time when there is no work in my office.
maybe at that time I had won about $ 1000 but for me it was just luck. because I realized that a gambler will never win against the dealer so every time I lose at that table, I never want to continue the game

Why do you gamble every day? I think this is the first sign that you have a gambling addiction that you will have trouble coping with on your own. If I were you, I'd try playing less often, like once a week. It's not about how much money you spend on gambling, it's about the fact that the more often you gamble the more you support the addiction and not fight it.

He already said he was an addicts with his dad, but if you read his post carefully you will know he's contradicting himself and he seems like a typical shitposter. If he's an addict and gamble every day, how can he never want to continue to gamble again? Perhaps he's not a gambler or only using demo account to know how the game works only.

...
I never want to continue the game

In other words, the casino has the right to give any rules even though it is a newly created rule, on the grounds that it will cause a lot of losses for the casino and will be in danger of going bankrupt.
The player does not have any power. there is no such thing as winning and winning continuously, there will be many defeats. The desired jackpot is just wishful thinking. All systems are set up in such a way to benefit the casino owner.
If the player succeeds in getting the jackpot, it is just luck, but what happens next is that the jackpot will also run out if it continues to be played.

This is the start of that addiction, playing everyday doesn't guarantee any return or profit so it's better to limit your playing time because gambling is not a good source of income. It's hard to win because the house always have the advantage over the gamblers, even if the odds is telling different, expect the house will still be the real winner here. Just gamble, occasionally and you'll realize how tricky the gambling is, if you don't want to get addicted stay responsible.

Exactly. Gambling should be played occasionally and not everyday, risk of become addicted is so high. About that, another thing that should be added is that for play everyday you need an high amount of money, because

for every day that will pass you'll play an amount higher than the previous day, and usually you'll stop when you're going to lose everything. So, better stay away and play only sometimes.

Playing everyday does not mean it will lead to addiction as well, it is all depend on ourselves. If you can control yourself (money, time and emotion), it wont bring you to an addiction. I am going to use myself as example in this case. I was very active gamblers during 2020-2021 who gamble almost everyday, am I addicted? No I'm not, I can stop (80%) it since almost a year now. Gambling occasionally does not guarantee that you wont be addicted as well if you cant control your gambling session. The key is self control.

In my experience as a gambler i agree that gambling everyday is not the right way to do it and it increases the chances of an addiction and in my opinion if you are on a loosing streak and you keep gambling it means there is something wrong that's how most gamblers lose their money, to make rational decisions while gambling you need to be cool and not stressed out and you need to have control of your funds not the otherway around.

if your daddy and you consider gambling has no source of income so what is the name or playing gambling every time. Some people seems as source of revenue and gambling has been helping some peoples life and I believe that some people value gambling because then generate money from it to feed their family so therefore if you don't take them serious as a source of generating revenue that means your father mighty take it as source of generating revenue which you will not understand

Winning in life and in gambling is not an easy think. So it's good to have a plan B ready in all the situations of life. Be it gambling or life ventrue.
Because everything doesn't happen the same way as planned. Also the best practice is not to put all the eggs in the same basket to keep yourself safe from unnecessary trouble.

someone that is gambling addict I cannot measure the length he can perform in bet weekly or monthly so therefore when they remember the money generated in gambling weekly or monthly they are option will be that there is every hope of meaning every time even though they are lost they will continue to play in order to me so from the initial stage is when a gamble attention supposed to be cut down so that it will not be desperate enough playing gambling

[serjent05]

Gambling was made easy, that is why the gambling industry took advantage of technology so that we can play in the comfort of our homes or while we are lying in our bed.  Gambling being easy is very different from winning a gambling session.  Gambling is made easy and due to that many people are suffering from gambling addiction.

But the truth is, it is not. If this is not for you, better find your own passion that you think you can excel.

Gambling was made easy but winning isn't.  That is the truth IMHO.

.

gambling is like a game of trade by barter so therefore just have it in mind that you mean you might lose so anyone who is a gambler what's the procedures I don't blame everybody or single person who is addicted to the gamble winning for gambling is very difficult but people who know the root of gambling due will it very easily. Not everybody that have the opportunity all the luck to win Gamble so it is a game of chance
