Gambling and Fengshui

[fortunecrypto]

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

the MGM Grand had to change its entrance, one that formerly forced customers to walk through the mouth of a lion (actually, under its chin, but close enough), deemed to be a very bad mojo by players from Asia.

The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.

Fascinating Chinese Gambling Superstitions

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

[Kasabus]

This is what we called superstitious belief, right?

Well, I think every gambler has their own way of attracting luck, but for me, I'd rather believe in statistics and the chances of winning than luck. There are times we get lucky but we can never get consistent with that, so for me, Fengshui or whatever it is that would make me lucky is not necessary anymore as luck will just come when you are not expecting it, just like a thief in the night.

[Gianluca95]

I haven't understand if Feng shui is an art or not (I've heard about it on the movie "The Wolf of Wall street" the first time), but as I understand, it is correlated with Chinese superstition. I confirm that anyway, when I was in Las

Vegas 3 years ago I've seen this strange thing, and when I've asked about it to receptionist, he has given to me the same explanation that you're givin here !

[cryptomaniac_xxx]

I guess it's more of Asian thingy, so not sure if Western casino's have practice or practicing it because that seems to be odd.

And yeah, it's ancient as the Chinese, it's about finding harmony and balance thru arrangement of objects in a confine space. It could be fall on the category of superstitions though, so we may have our own interpretations or maybe we should believe on it or not.

[aioc]

I guess it's more of Asian thingy, so not sure if Western casino's have practice or practicing it because that seems to be odd.

It started in China but its everywhere now, it's very popular even in the western because it's effective, it's harmonious thinking and arraignment of things and being in tune with nature, that's the essence of Fengshui and we have the right thinking we attract luck

And yeah, it's ancient as the Chinese, it's about finding harmony and balance thru arrangement of objects in a confine space. It could be fall on the category of superstitions though, so we may have our own interpretations or maybe we should believe on it or not.

There are superstitions side to Fengshui but you cannot argue its success on the Chinese and even non-Chinese practitioners, who employ it in their business, so gamblers are also employing they have nothing to lose and it's harmless they just have to change their mindset and belief and arraign and align some things.

[Yogee]

It's true that they have those beliefs which also influences people from other countries. I remember a friend who asked lottery numbers from a Chinese associate. The guy went to a corner so he could concentrate but I wasn't sure what he was murmuring about. Maybe it's part of their beliefs.

[Baofeng]

Most gamblers that I know is very superstitions, so yeah maybe FengShui and Gambling works hand in hand. And Feng Shui has spread out, so it's not just a Chinese thing anymore, even the West practice it because it can bring good luck because you are trying to attract positivity through those arrangement to have balance and harmony. And of course keep faith that we will be lucky once we enter those casinos.

[Distinctin]

I think this is mostly a Chinese thing, it's a superstitious belief that they follow in order to attract luck. IMO, it's good for business but not in gambling because we all know that the casino has the house edge and we will just lose in the long run, no luck could beat the house edge unless we hit the jackpot and we stop after.

[dothebeats]

Chinese businessmen are really keen into following this belief that the Western world adopted it. There's nothing wrong in following these superstitions as long as you are a level-headed person that knows common sense is always better than making things complicated. Sometimes, I too, follow the feng shui unknowingly whenever I am gambling. Mind you, I'm not gambling for profit, but sometimes I avoid rolling for a minute just because the time on the clock has "13" in it. It's crazy how this way of thinking affects a lot of people around the world, and one can find its influence in almost every industry imaginable.

[Jemzx00]

Feng Shui or any superstitious beliefs not only from China but on any country are mostly imposed on any businesses such as gambling. You might be able to see that there are common number of floors that are not included in most hotels such as Floor 13 not existing. These superstitions are mostly to be seen to on any establishment to avoid negative aura and repel bad spirits and practices on their businesses.

Yeah, it is funny right? but I really don't know why that sometimes it is effective. Sometimes I wear red , anything that is red because I believe that it would bring me a luck in a hard situation such as in playing casinos that for me only those lucky ones can win, sometimes it happens that I always win using this trick, but I didn't mind it at all cause I play for fun.

[YOSHIE]

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

I really know the Chinese people's beliefs about the flow / science of feng shui, proven both fortune numbers and unlucky numbers, objects and so on.

In the feng shui method, China believes it will bring a positive aura and avoid negative aura, to be honest, feng shui number hockey in gambling is often used in land casino betting, In Singapore, things like this are commonly done by the Chinese, such as the numbers 8-38-48-68-88-168 and so on, the Chinese believe it is a lucky number.

I remember the opening of the Olympics in Beijing in 2008, they believed in the number 8 lucky hockey, the event opened all starting with the number 8. Just like they did on the 8th and 8pm.

Conclusion: gambling and feng shui, I think this method applies specifically to Chinese people, even though they apply it in the world of gambling, the reason is because they already believe in fengshui, I'm not sure fengshui science can apply to followers of other schools besides fengshui, luck, fanatics, hockey and luck of a person based on their beliefs, if they see Chinese people get luck based on fengshui beliefs, then they try, I'm sure they will go home empty bag in gambling, like the hotel method in Las Vegas, It's weird nowadays how to bet, it's the same as lottery guessing believing in the devil, if they are not the basis of Feng shui.

[Davidvictorson]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Well, this is my first time to learn of the word "Fengshui". It turns out that I have been practicing some form of it without even knowing. In my culture the number Four isn't associated with being unlucky. What is associated with being unlucky or "death" is the colour black. Casinos do not use the colour at all. A gambling superstition in my culture -  When a gambler hits his left foot against a rock. They associate it with losing. Another superstition is when a gambler's palm itches and he scratches it. It means he is going to win some money at the casino.

[fiulpro]

They are widely swayed by believes which means that some companies would try and use some other method as well and other than the artistic value they do provide an excellent way to use up some space in the area and make them stand out as well. I do think that it is indeed alright to place them around in gambling areas but they need not to be concerned with the indepth basis since most religions and practices would be well against gambling as well. It's like going to the god and wishing that you might win before placing any bet.

[virasisog]

This belief is common in some Asian countries believing that Fengshui could attract luck. They hardly believe that Fengshui will have a big impact on our future. However, I don't believe in such a thing though I respect the superstition of other cultures. Most gambling games are luck-based yet Fengshui can't control or even decide our fate. I guess this is another strategy for casinos that want to attract players who also have the same belief but as for me, Fengshui or any tools being used in gambling has nothing to do with our gambling results.

[rhomelmabini]

Probably just Chinese belief but if the casino owner isn't believing this and still flourishing, that needs to be explained thoroughly. Can't say for sure on those successful casinos out there but I think it wouldn't much to apply now when it comes to online, if ever Fengshui experts says it is still appeals here, I wonder.

[Rruchi man]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

For superstitions in general, the most persons that are affected by it are those that have subscribed to it and believe in its reality. For many that formerly know and believe in the Fengshui they may most certainly be affected by it based on mindset. While for others like myself who just heard about it, it now depends on us to either believe it or not...You believe, you begin to see it's effect, if you don't...i believe you won't.

i have no Fenhshui practice, i gamble whenever i choose without considering superstition.

[passwordnow]

The Chinese have just influenced the majority of the countries with Feng Shui. In their nearby countries, you'll see most of them applying this practice and belief. Nothing wrong with what you believe as an individual, whether it is Feng Shui or Eastern traditions, or Western beliefs about gambling. I just respect these beliefs if they mean a lot to the believer as long as they don't disturb and don't bring harm to others.

[keyscore44]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

People gamble according to different superstitions and beliefs. However, in my opinion, gambling is based solely on mathematics and probability. Of course, some situations are exceptionally fortunate, but they really have nothing to do with beliefs, and when something like this does happen, it is just a coincidence.

[uneng]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I think every gamblers have their own personal preferences for which numbers to pick and which to avoid, based on previous life experiences since their childhood. You mentioned the example of number 4 in chinese culture, that is avoided. While here, we tend to avoid numbers 13 and 666, because they mean bad omens and reminds negative events in our society and imaginary.

Even when I win a bet resulting in one of those numbers I don't feel good about it. It gives me the impression there is something wrong going on.

[shasan]

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

It might be practiced on several casinos and casino hotels but I do not think it has been used for luck or to attract more users as it stands for good luck. But I think it is just an ancient art which is very beautiful and which make attraction to the users of the site as a symbol of beauty not as a symbol of luck.

this is where your upbringing and other beliefs come in. it is true that even non-chinese business people are following the fengshui tips in managing or designing their places. i don't have any issues with this kind of position, so long they are not harming anyone. you are free to follow what you think will be of advantage to you.

[rahmad2nd]

As far as I know, the practice of feng shui in some business places or gambling casinos is only to harmonize the energy so that it is harmonious. nothing to do with luck for the gamblers. placing some objects or statues only aims to repel negative energy, and for table layouts, entrances, are intended to balance the incoming good energy so that everything becomes harmonious. In fact there are many practices like this in some Asian countries, for example Thailand with its Kumanthongs they believe they can attract fortune, Kumanthongs are also usually placed in land-based casinos. This kind of culture is very common in Asian countries.

[Sirait]

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I also have a friend who is Chinese, and he really believes in Feng Sui (even his house is also influenced by Feng sui), he believes that following Feng sui will open the door to his fortune even though he also plays gambling when his Feng Sui is good. I personally come from a family that doesn't believe in superstition and feng shui, so I play gambling without restrictions and free.

[acroman08]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

some of my relatives are huge believers in it and incorporate it into almost everything that they do and I won't be surprised if they incorporate it too when they are gambling(they love gambling too), but I don't share their belief and I consider Feng shui just like any other superstition that I don't believe in.

[Finestream]

This is what we called superstitious belief, right?

Fengshui has been a proven source of luck in almost everything but I don’t see it in gambling. Gambling is not solely based on luck as games like sports betting requires some knowledge and experience too. If you are not a pro in it, eventually you’ll get more losses than wins. However, I believe fengshui is more proven effective maybe for building operators or owners of gambling companies, but for gamblers, it’s more on statistics and chances on winning that mostly counts.

Many are still willing to spend some money asking for the opinion of Feng shui master, most probably those gambler are also seeking for their advices since they also want to earn and make money. This is just a belief, and the result of our success will still depend on how we work on it, many are being mislead when it comes to this superstition, I personally don’t believe on this since gambling will still depend on your luck.

It is interesting to see and understand all the subtle manipulative psychological tricks that casinos put into place. I guess these things can fluctuate, at present it appears lots of Asian guests are driving the decor of these hotels, so they must be the biggest spenders right now. The hotel floor numbers is totally weird to be honest, it's based on characters from another language resembling a Latin number, which has a bad meaning in the original language. It's almost a step too far and unnecessarily confusing for most other people who would expect it just to be ordered numerically - I guess that particular casino is mostly geared to the Chinese market and has few other guests.

[coin-investor]

You can do any ritual or employ your belief as long as you are not violating any rules of the casino you're playing if something will get you luck in playing whether it's a ritual or carrying something as long as it's legal there is no hard doing it, all our actions are attached to religion and age-old belief, no casino will prohibit you from doing it if you're lucky wearing red while playing, no one will forbid you and you're not violating any rules in a casino.

[darkangel11]

The Chinese people are so strange. They act like luck is some kind of ghost that you have to lure and keep close.

I don't believe in this bullshit with lucky charms, doing or saying certain things before a bet and all. A man who blames a statue for losing in a casino presents himself as weak and childish.

All of us are strange not only the Chinese people. but their culture's strangeness is doing wonders for them, they are now one of the superpowers and they cast influence with their industry, beliefs, and culture and Fengshui is one of them, Fengshui belief lies in accordance with harmonious living if you have a harmonious living and all are well arranged you can invite luck and good vibes that is why even in gambling it exists.

[lionheart78]

How about you?

I don't believe in feng shui, if ever I am, in my religion's point of view, feng Shui is some belief that contrasts the teachings of my religion.

Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

No, I just play casually, I am more leaning on winning by chance belief than luck. So in short, probability speaks more sense to me than the term lucky.

That's really part of their culture and I've seen many times a Chinese does do some prayer before they go in a casino. They pray with an incense in front of buddha.
I was curious back then because I was still young during the first time I've seen it. But, I've come to realize that it's part of their culture, belief and religion.

[BitcoinPanther]

I believe in Chinese culture, fengshui and luck is connected.  This is one of the major reason why many feng shui believers designed their houses according to the positive energy flows of Feng Shui to get lucky and have abundant and safe living.  So it does make sense if the owner of the Casino is a Feng Shui believer to arrange the Casino designs and Feng Shui materials in a way to give players a bad luck.

And to answer the OP question, I am neutral when it comes to Feng Shui belief and I am too lazy to practice their customs during my gambling session.

We all just need is respect when it comes to differences in culture and beliefs.
There are even not Chinese people who have lots of rituals when it comes to their gambling activities.
Some of them have beliefs that they need to follow certain practice before anything else.
No problem with that, we are all entitled to follow what we think will give us some luck.

[TopT3ns]

So far when gambling online I don't think it will have any impact, everything that happens at a gambling place depends on your luck, if you have high luck then you can get a win because everything that happens while gambling has been arranged by the programmer who owned by the website developer so it won't win easily.

if you still find it difficult to win then at least keep trying and learning all the steps you have taken and as much as possible looking for a good point to get a lot of profit.

[Rengga Jati]

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

I believe that the implementation of Feng Shui is related to the owner's belief in the good things of Feng Shui. They believe that if they do or apply something based on Feng Shui then they will get more blessings and fluency in their efforts and bring all goodness.
Of course, this is only certain people who believe. And we can't blame him because it's all about belief.

Even in Land-based Casino, these are all superstitious beliefs and have no scientific evidence that Feng Shui has something to do with our lives.

if you still find it difficult to win then at least keep trying and learning all the steps you have taken and as much as possible looking for a good point to get a lot of profit.

Or possibly look for a better casino game that has high RTP.  At least the chance for winning is a bit higher if we play with high RTP games.

[ChiBitCTy]

Pretty interesting topic you bring up here. I think a lot of this is more so for the interesting aspects of it, rather than it being taken quite literally (in terms of gambling area decor / gamblers superstitions). But hey whatever works for you works for you right.

[nakamura12]

It could also means that most of the casino's gamblers have superstitious beliefs that their gamblers believe that if they go inside the mouth (under its chin as you have said) of a lion (going inside) just to gamble then they won't gamble instead to avoid breaking the superstitious beliefs. Maybe that's the reason why the casino owner change or renovate the entire place to fit what is needed as the owner noticed that the players are not increasing but decreasing. It could also mean that it's the casino owner's beliefs.

[Slow death]

I had never heard about all these cases of Superstition and as an African I have heard a lot about Superstition, but I confess that I didn't know that casinos also believe in these things, well in my case I just make bets based on my analysis and news that I read about the game I'm going to bet on, I only trust these two options and luck. Of course I don't want to say that these Superstition things don't exist. each person is free to believe what he wants, it is part of life. here in africa I realized a lot, people will always cling to something mystical to survive, to fill the void in their heart or to serve as a pillar in their heart to face everyday problems. in africa even people kill themselves for believing in myths and superstition

[Darker45]

There are all kinds of beliefs similar to this. In general, I'd call these practices superstitions rather than just feng shui. Feng shui of course is popular but it is basically Chinese in origin. In my country, as in other countries as well, there are also similar traditional beliefs.

Personally, I don't observe any feng shui practice in gambling. Neither am I applying it in my life. Gambling remains to be about luck in general.

[Kemarit]

Yep, and so I remember by old thread,  Gambling and Superstition.

And I guess this kind of belief are more prevalent in gambling. Anything that the gambler thinks that will bring them good luck, they are going to follow and believed on that. Specially on some intercession from the "Higher up". Fung Shui though is general, I mean it is not only apply in gambling, but in business, and if life as a whole.

[hahay]

Not at all because to practice it at least we have to understand or study Fengshui beforehand itself, while we gamble it doesn't seem like it will take a complicated way to start gambling. Indeed, for those who are used to and understand Fengshui it may be easy, but for ordinary people I believe this kind of thing will not be a consideration. Except about a spell or an amulet that can be used without having to learn it and it will be simpler, but apart from all that things like this are certainly a variety that becomes interesting to do and try.

[len01]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

according to my mind, chinese superstition beliefs are the same as belief in mantra which have the meaning of wishing luck when playing gambling and done before playing or when playing gambling.

when playing gambling i never do Fengshui or anything it's just for the sake of luck and never have any desire for Fengshui practice questions. because i play gambling just to entertain myself without expecting victory or luck. if i win in gambling i just take it as a bonus when entertaining myself.

but i still appreciate someone trusting Fengshui for their luck when it comes to gambling.

[swogerino]

It is just to create a beautiful ambient in the casino when we go to play at a land line casino,everything there is setup to make the user feel at home,relaxed and comfortable,the free drinks,the ladies,the sounds of slots plus the architecture of the casino itself is just put in place to do that.

Fengshui is some art of  achieving this harmony but in the end it got nothing to do with our luck and winnings in a casino,that is still decided by the house edge which is in place in slot machines to make sure casinos hit a profit.Also in roulette the betting limit is there to stop Martingale as we know Martingale always works with an infinite amount of money in a land line casino because you cannot hit always red,sometimes it is inevitable that black will fall.

[Peanutswar]

Actually there's nothing wrong with it because we have different perspectives and believe we all wish to have a great fortune and future with the business and also to gain money some of the people having this belief makes them more have a smooth way of earning some of them already adopted this because nothing will disappear if they do this.

[_act_]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Feng shui is just one of the eight superstitions that is listed, including one about females that they believe to gamble during their menstruation to have luck. The west side of a casino or room during gambling as for example, or anywhere you can see a door as another example are considered to be good luck according to the article. But this is the first time I am hearing about this and I have been gambling for years. As for my opinion, I do not believe in anything like this, I do not take gambling serious because I do not see it a a way to make money, so nothing attached like superstition.

[Daltonik]

In my opinion, everything about gambling here depends on the perception of the player himself of his winnings and defeats, it seems that professional or the most successful players have their own rules before the game and they really believe in them, but these same rules or superstitions are absolutely no guarantee of luck for others.

[livingfree]

Gambling remains to be about luck in general.

Indeed it is and that's why people who are into Fengshui and other superstitious beliefs are doing it to increase their luck.

Cannot break that belief that has been there for ages and it's up to us whether we'll try it or not or just ignore what they've been doing. As for me, I'm ignoring them and I don't rely my luck on any of those traditions anymore.

Because when I do, I can't feel the effect.

[madnessteat]

^

The world scientific community considers fengshui a pseudoscience because it is impossible to verify the existence of qi energy flows on which this theory is based. In my opinion, those people who believe in this theory are trying to change their lives for the better with this belief just like people who believe in God do. I don't think it helps them either in life or in gambling.

[nullama]

Snip

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Most hotels with casinos for international travelers will skip number four so that Chinese gamblers stay there. It's not like non Chinese people have tetraphobia as well. Nokia did this as well, they went from series 30 to series 50 for their Asian market.

Superstition is not based on anything real though, but many gamblers are extremely superstitious, so it makes sense to cater for them in different businesses.

[TopT3ns]

In my opinion, everything about gambling here depends on the perception of the player himself of his winnings and defeats, it seems that professional or the most successful players have their own rules before the game and they really believe in them, but these same rules or superstitions are absolutely no guarantee of luck for others.

As long as I know gambling I think so far no one can get the role of a professional gambler, it all just depends on luck, although with poker gambling it also won't be possible when they get very random cards and I think gambling places have very good algorithms made deliberately to make it difficult for players to get a win, because when many win from a gambling place it will make the developer of the gambling place a loss.

[Wexnident]

Why wouldn't it, people believe it so some casinos capitalize on it by advertising they have it or they believe in it so people who believe it would actually chose said casinos to play in since well, it aligns with their belief or something along the lines. Some people have had a good experience with it though honestly, it's all just luck to me, nothing more, nothing else.

I have some habits I do, something like how choosing C on an exam would bring you the correct answer one way or another kind of habit, it's something I subconsciously do when a certain/specific scenario pops up or happens to me whenever I play.

[AicecreaME]

It's their superstitious belief, if they believe it's real then let it be, because they've been believing on it since their ancestors, I guess that's why they still take it up to now. I've watched a horror movie regarding about Fengshui, and I believe they are just scared of what's gonna happen if they don't follow the thing they believe into.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I am Never Fengshui practice to gamble, except a few of my friends, they often look at the clock, look at people's clothes, count buttons, feel the wind pass them etc. I don't know what it means because I didn't ask either, but I'm sure they also practice Fengshui when gambling because nature can also tell humans. Maybe just same any other superstitions mantra but I think Fengshui refers to nature, color, time and numbers.

[maydna]

I don't know if it has anything to do with Feng Shui and the casino, but it seems the casinos trust it so much that they use it. Maybe some users also trust it and use it before they play. For example, when they want to go to the casino, they are required to go through the path shown by the Feng Shui expert, and later when they return, they have to go through another path. Or if they want to play at one table, they better face east.

[bitzizzix]

Feng shui is a science inherited from Chinese society that regulates the flow of energy (qi), and its effect brings positive energy and avoids negative energy that will not disappear and is believed to bring good and good luck.
and as time goes by, the science of feng shui develops, the need for feng shui is not only used to get gambling luck but a lot depends on what one wants.
and that's their belief that I don't think there's a problem as long as they don't actually cheat when betting.

I don't think so, fengshui does not refer to nature, color, time and numbers. however fengshui refers to the flow of qi energy, for harmony and balance. even if there are fengshui practices used in gambling I think the underlying thing is the method in the calculation. I don't know if it's true or not, at least this is what I know. Regardless of whether someone believes it or not, I think the most influential thing in gambling is the absolute luck factor without involving fengshui or things related to superstition.

[crwth]

I believe since the people who are really rich in the gambling scene are mostly Asian or to be more precise, Chinese, they tend to really apply their belief system to what they are doing. In Asia, I know that there are certain traditions that are being practiced because the generations before them have practiced them. It's just a passing of tradition and the belief is still there.

Some applications of it are probably not so helpful but they are just there because they believe it. It's just nothing to verify it on, it's either a coincidence or a lucky expense or something. It's just that for sure.

Maybe they are just following it for "extra measures".

[AicecreaME]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

People gamble according to different superstitions and beliefs. However, in my opinion, gambling is based solely on mathematics and probability. Of course, some situations are exceptionally fortunate, but they really have nothing to do with beliefs, and when something like this does happen, it is just a coincidence.

Gambling is indeed all about mathematics and probability. But of course, luck and odds also play into it in some instances. Perhaps these people who believe in fengshui just really have a strong sense of traditional belief and thinking and for me there's nothing wrong with it. Maybe some people just boost their confidence if they have something to hold onto. After all, we're all different. We do things differently and we repeatedly execute what we think is effective and beneficial for us. It will just boil down on respect of anyone's choices and preferences on how they want to gamble.

It seems like they're applying and following patterns based on Fengshui which I think is effective for those who believe in it. They say that we attract what we believe so I think that's how it works for them. This traditional belief is still existing even in the latest generation which simply means that this has been helpful for years. Maybe that's the reason why there are lots of Chinese people who became rich because of this belief.

[Reid]

Is the blowing of dice before you roll it some kind of a fengshui too? I think it is. Some people let others blow the dice to build some luck while other will try to blow away the bad luck.
Lucky items in the pocket or in the wallet. That's one of my habit and I think the Chinese tradition has something to do with it.
Keychains with luck characters too.
Yeah, I am a traditional guy and for me it works. But that's just me because I know someone will use facts and math to oppose it.

[blue_hurricanger]

Fengshui is an interesting topic that I was surprised to see in bitcointalk and gambling section. Of all the big businesses in Asia (China, Japan, Vietnam, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia,...), all followed Fengshui or an equivalent local version of it. I will cut you from all the bullshit regarding fate and destiny that Sinosphere and Asians things. The main good reason behind Fengshui is it helps people to have confidence in their workplace, in their home, in their way to meet business partners or doing things that are important. Basically, a pat up your confidence and this is where Asian casinos also have Fengshui since it boosts and gives gamblers the same boost up to their confidences so they can feel luckier and gamble more.

There are so many opinions about this kind of belief. If you think it works on you, then it's good.

If on someone they are not a fan and they will choose to do the math and try to go deeper in analysing the possible outcome, then
it's their choice to deal with that.

I'm not a good at how really this kind of belief works, but I heard it from some friend that they are using it to fight against
bad luck, maybe it works on them. I'm not sure though.

[qwertyup23]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Nope and I have not encountered any person practicing or linking fengshui in gambling.

Gamblers and some casual players always have their lucky charm or mantra before they gamble. They tend to believe that by doing something, this will bring them some sort of good luck that will turn the odds on their favour. While this kind of practice may look outrageous, this actually helps them in easing their anxiety and giving them the push to gamble and to be fearless on their odds.

Though that may be the case, doing any some sort of fengshui to rely on one's luck should be at least avoided especially if you primarily gamble for profit. While these beliefs may have no effect or anything whatsoever on the odds, this would only help the gambler to gamble more in the process.

[STT]

Alot of gamblers are superstitious, its unfortunate because if you are going to be this cautious and careful then it might as well be with reference to probability theory or study of the game itself in some way.    Its possible people sub consciously are able to engineer better odds for themselves and it comes to be a kind of religious practice or discipline, I dont think its so bad in that way if its of guidance.

Some are supertitious
Some are not

We are totally different to each other but it would be better if we just let others do on what they do believe as long they arent affecting or making some trouble on someone then it is really just fine.
We do have different habits and gestures before we do make out some bets even though if we are really that minding or really that sensible towards reality then there's no thing on this world
could really affect your luck chance on playing gambling.Some do just believe that it does exist because it was just purely coincidence but well it is really just their own beliefs and action to make.

[tabas]

The Chinese people are so strange. They act like luck is some kind of ghost that you have to lure and keep close.

I don't believe in this bullshit with lucky charms, doing or saying certain things before a bet and all. A man who blames a statue for losing in a casino presents himself as weak and childish.

That's really part of their culture and I've seen many times a Chinese does do some prayer before they go in a casino. They pray with an incense in front of buddha.
I was curious back then because I was still young during the first time I've seen it. But, I've come to realize that it's part of their culture, belief and religion.

We all just need is respect when it comes to differences in culture and beliefs.
There are even not Chinese people who have lots of rituals when it comes to their gambling activities.
Some of them have beliefs that they need to follow certain practice before anything else.
No problem with that, we are all entitled to follow what we think will give us some luck.

Yes, respect is the key. The same as the others, not all of them are into their culture and traditions. We can see that in different races and nations that the new generation don't lean that much into their beliefs.
And for us that are not well depth into their culture, it's understandable why many of them are doing it for the sake of increasing their chances of winning before they gamble.

[romero121]

People turn towards superstitious beliefs when they weren't able to make good profit. Once they made good fortune out of gambling, but they weren't able to keep it long. This means they loss what they've earned within a short. This makes them have superstitious beliefs than making themselves have self control over the gambling activities. I usually prefer tricks than superstition.

Well do you believe that religious people are most commonly those people who have high superstitious beliefs?
I have noticed this one of my neighbors, he frequently goes to church but at the same way he also frequently do betting, he was so addicted to a lottery which I think every day he buys tickets. That is their belief and I think there is no problem with that, each of us has preferences in life, I don't even believe in Fengshui even though I am half Chinese, --just respect them as long as they are harmless.

[terrorJR]

Indeed, for some circles Feng Shui is one thing that can be used as a reference, especially for Chinese people.
But in this case it all comes back to belief, of course, because I personally do consider this to be a superstition and indeed gambling is still gambling that relies on luck. but sometimes this kind of belief also for people can make people suggest even though only a few people believe in this.

[serjent05]

An interesting belief.  This one comes first from the list so now I wonder if ever those sports betting fans have ever experienced unlucky events every time they open their sports book or book maker to bet for their favorite team?

1. Books Are to Be Avoided

The Chinese don’t like words that sound like unlucky things. For example, “book” in Chinese sounds like “lose,” and hearing the word is considered unlucky. Carrying or looking at books are also unlucky to Chinese gamblers.

I often have my book on my computer table so if this one is true then I shouldn't have won anything in my gambling activity but calculating my gain on my activity to date, I am on a positive bankroll so far.

[bitgov]

This is what we called superstitious belief, right?

Well, I think every gambler has their own way of attracting luck, but for me, I'd rather believe in statistics and the chances of winning than luck. There are times we get lucky but we can never get consistent with that, so for me, Fengshui or whatever it is that would make me lucky is not necessary anymore as luck will just come when you are not expecting it, just like a thief in the night.

Most of the western gamblor go with the luck but the superstitious belief is very common in china.
They do most of the things with superstitious beliefs

[agustina2]

I don't believe in any rituals of feng-shui. I will gamble based on my own strategy.

But as tradition goes by, we just have to respect those people who used any kinds of spiritual-related tactics to increase their winning chances.

If those are effective to them, then they just have to continue using those Fengshui stuff.

[xSkylarx]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I don't believe in such practices that some religion do to keep away from bad luck. Whatever ritual you do, if your not lucky that time then there is no one to blame. If you are to win some amounts that day, your belief has nothing to do with it but instead it is your fate that it will happen. You'll just end up being disappointed if you follow too much rituals and still not able to win anything.

Many keep peacock feather as a good luck signs in their shops and business. And many hang evil eye in their houses to get rid of evil eyes.

I don't believe in that thing but I admit that thing exists among us and some people do believe in that. I also met some people who practice this Fengshui or similar, but I don't talk or discuss it too much. So related to gambling, I don't practice anything related to that thing, such as superstitious or something like that because I think playing gambling is just having fun and only related to the money. And if some people still believe in that thing, I will let them with their beliefs.

They have their belief, then be it, the most important is we are responsible enough and be realistic at the same time so we will know how much we can afford to risk and our chances of winning.

[crzy]

Chinese gambler will surely believe on this, and they have this tradition in almost everything not just in gambling.
There's nothing wrong if you have this ritual before you gamble, what is wrong here is if you depend on that belief and spend too much money. This is still gambling, and luck will still be the main reason why we are winning. We have this kind of tradition as well, and there's nothing to lose if you believe on this sometimes.

Yesterday I've thought about Gambling and fengshui and my question was: also in Macao there are casino that has made something with fengshui and respect the chinese superstiction? I would be really surprised to see that

American casino has adapted their structure for them and in Macao there isn't nothing about.

[el che]

this concept seems quite interesting, i used it in laying out my apartment but never thought that it can also be incorporated in gambling. any books that go deeper in this subject?

[ChrisPop]

As far as I am concerned Feng Shui is just another superstition. I would even go as far as comparing it to people who suffer from OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) who, in many cases, have a need for order and to follow certain patterns of behaviour before doing an activity.

The effectiveness of Feng Shui on gambling can be easily verified with a study. Grab a bunch of people, note who follows Feng Shui, who doesn't and track their gambling performance. On a large enough scale I'm sure there will be no difference between the two groups. Otherwise the casinos would have gone bankrupt

Feng shui should work like this, their purpose is to arrange things into the right place so they can have more peace and prosperity, I’m also thinking if this one can really use in gambling though maybe Casinos are also have this kind of belief. There’s nothing wrong with this, you can have this if you think it can help you attract more gamblers but if you are a gambler and will use feng shui, I think its not gonna work since its a different belief.

I totally agree with your views on feng shui (it's just a tradition to make those who believe to be confident and comfortable with themselves / a kind of suggestion to the mind). 99% of Asians who believe in feng shui are of mixed Chinese/Chinese descent. hence fensgshui is not very popular among the majority of other asian citizens (who are not of chinese ancestry).

[Viscore]

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

the MGM Grand had to change its entrance, one that formerly forced customers to walk through the mouth of a lion (actually, under its chin, but close enough), deemed to be a very bad mojo by players from Asia.

The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.

Fascinating Chinese Gambling Superstitions

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I do believe in Fengshui when it comes to attracting luck in my career and how to improve it. However, when it comes to gambling, i have never tried to gamble applying all my fengshui beliefs. For me, gambling is just something that is out of your control, even if you do your mantras before gambling, that don't make any guarantee to win. Well, not to offend those fengshui enthusiasts, but not all in fengshui have proven effective. Everything still lies into our own efforts, and in gambling, relying its own statistics are mostly the bases to win in gambling.

[serjent05]

This study will surely show the ineffectiveness of Feng Shui in gambling activities.  For sure all of these subjects will have a different result, there might be a possibility that the subject that doesn't follow the Feng Shui will yield the highest winnings while those who follows might get their bankroll depleted.  Since the chance of winning in a gambling game is random, especially in a game of luck/chance.

The world scientific community considers fengshui a pseudoscience because it is impossible to verify the existence of qi energy flows on which this theory is based. In my opinion, those people who believe in this theory are trying to change their lives for the better with this belief just like people who believe in God do. I don't think it helps them either in life or in gambling.

You're right that it's all about changing their lives to have a good life.

That means that they're doing it and possibly that many of them are reflecting it in their ends and believes that all the good things that are happening to them is because of it.

Can't break that belief of them if they keep on doing it and they're standing firm with that thought.

[harizen]

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

Since it's luck maybe these people are finding ways how to make that luck comes to them.

Not wrong after all as what if, even though there's no explanation about it, they are really lucky to using those feng-shui practices.

I guess we just have to leave it that way and let them do what they want.

It would not be advisable to spend most of our time just playing gambling because we also don't have a big chance of winning. Maybe if they really want to do it like that, we'll just let it be because that's what they want. The important thing is that we don't bother them and respect what they want to do so we will play our own way. Thus, each of us will be able to enjoy the gambling game and get pleasure from gambling.

rules and not cheating the casino,  it seems there is nothing to stop us from believing in the practice of Fengshui. So just do what we think can
increase our confidence to win, and something like fengshui practice that can allow us to increase our self-confidence would be very good to do.
But of course don't force others to believe what we believe, because everyone has their own way which is believed to bring luck when gambling.

[davis196]

I'm not an expert on Fengshui, but if a casino is really arranged by the laws of Fengshui, wouldn't all the gamblers playing in that casino become lucky. If the gamblers suddenly became lucky, wouldn't the casino start losing money and eventually go bankrupt?
If the casino owner is smart, he would never follow the rules of fengshui and he will do everything he can to attract luck to himself and reduce the gambler's luck. I believe that fengshui is pure superstition and all this sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me.
It's true that many gamblers are superstitious and the casinos are making some changes to attract more superstitious gamblers, but I don't think that having different interior design would change your luck. At the end of the day, the casino always wins. With or without fengshui.

[Smartprofit]

I haven't understand if Feng shui is an art or not (I've heard about it on the movie "The Wolf of Wall street" the first time), but as I understand, it is correlated with Chinese superstition. I confirm that anyway, when I was in Las

Vegas 3 years ago I've seen this strange thing, and when I've asked about it to receptionist, he has given to me the same explanation that you're givin here !

The fact that online casinos comply with Feng Shui requirements when organizing the operation of a casino is quite reasonable and logical.  

Gambling is essentially a single combat with fate.  In a single combat with fate, a player cannot increase the probability of his winning by rational actions.  Logic cannot help a player win at roulette or craps.  

Therefore, many players are very superstitious.  At the same time, residents of Asian countries are more inclined to observe traditions.  They are less rational than Europeans (IMHO) .  

However, magical thinking and superstitions are now also characteristic of Europeans.  The scientific method and rationalism are out of fashion now.

You have a valid point. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to believe what they think would do good to them. If someone is a superstitious person, then be it as long as he isn't stooping on someone else's right. And as long as they are playing fair, clean, and right, we're not in the position to judge or stop them. After all, there are just people who are very traditional and we can't blame them most especially if that is the kind of upbringing they grew into.

I know a lot of people who consider Fengshui in most things particularly in financial aspect. There's no harm in actually believing or doing it if that's what they want and if that's what would bring them peace of mind. After all, in gambling, luck still plays a role so perhaps there's a little hope in them that doing such will give them higher edge and chance of winning.

Believing in these kind of things won't get you hurt either because it's just a belief and we do have our distinctive body language that will make us comfortable. In the same thought, I think that some gamblers that are saying some rituals prior the activity is not a sign that they are relying on it but I see it as their way to make them more confident on the activity and as I said, will make them play more comfortable.

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

I think they practice feng sui not because of the casino players for them to be lucky and win but it was for their own sake for their business to get lucky and it seems effective somehow? Because we all know that most of the casinos are successful but of course that is not mostly because of the feng sui or they get lucky but it's because of the fact that casino has a major advantage over the gamblers.

About the building where they skip some numbers, that was true and happens also here on my country but I think it wasn't the number 4 that is being skipped here. They do that not because of attracting a wealth but to possibly prevent accidents.

I think they practice feng sui not because of the casino players for them to be lucky and win but it was for their own sake for their business to get lucky and it seems effective somehow? Because we all know that most of the casinos are successful but of course that is not mostly because of the feng sui or they get lucky but it's because of the fact that casino has a major advantage over the gamblers.

About the building where they skip some numbers, that was true and happens also here on my country but I think it wasn't the number 4 that is being skipped here. They do that not because of attracting a wealth but to possibly prevent accidents.

Seem like Fengshui is a symbol of good luck and strength to the players.
Or does they stay like a statue on the main door or gamblors wear it in their pendents and rings as well

[Fatunad]

Chinese gambler will surely believe on this, and they have this tradition in almost everything not just in gambling.
There's nothing wrong if you have this ritual before you gamble, what is wrong here is if you depend on that belief and spend too much money. This is still gambling, and luck will still be the main reason why we are winning. We have this kind of tradition as well, and there's nothing to lose if you believe on this sometimes.

Believing in these kind of things won't get you hurt either because it's just a belief and we do have our distinctive body language that will make us comfortable. In the same thought, I think that some gamblers that are saying some rituals prior the activity is not a sign that they are relying on it but I see it as their way to make them more confident on the activity and as I said, will make them play more comfortable.

As long  you dont hurt others or making yourself hurt or something in between two then i dont see anything wrong with it.People are just too judgemental on what others been doing.
Just mind your own business and proceed into your own actions rather than on discriminating or teasing someones belief.If they dont hurt someone then it is really that still considerable.
Fengshui or  something in related wont really be having that effect on increasing  your chance but there were people who do really believe on these things and done something before they
do gamble and trying out to see if it does work or not but still continuing to make use of it even they are on the losing side.

Yes, I too believe Fengshui is for luck. Chinese people have different beliefs and they stand out from the rest of the world. Gambling is nothing an exception. Here the Fengshui is a luck factor same as that laughing Buddha is being placed everywhere so to get good business. If we dig the history we can see something interesting behind these activities.

I don't know if someone has read the book The hundred - there they have mentioned top 100 influential people of the world - and Buddha is no 4
Buddha has done so much to find God - but people have. made Buddha their God. Which is a different kind of belief.

[harizen]

I'm not an expert on Fengshui, but if a casino is really arranged by the laws of Fengshui, wouldn't all the gamblers playing in that casino become lucky.

Actually, most casinos themselves are designed and associated with feng-shui from layouts, design, and something along those lines.

Not just casinos but other establishments as well are associating feng-shui when they are doing layouts and crafts on what the establishment should look like. Try to ask an engineer and talk about feng-shui.

About your thinking that if luck really arranged by the law of Feng-shui, you are taking things seriously and too much. I

t's just for people's preferences and they actually don't expect to always win. It's just guidance and somehow a better practice not to take gambling that easy and simple. Much better to leave it that way.

There are many good luck signs attached to the money. In singapore people believe that good luck charms  brings in money and fortune.
Than  for chineses it is different saniro all together for indians it is laughing buddha.
So if feng shui is a symbol of good luck then surely there will be reason behind it.

[agustina2]

I also don't understand why other people are taking things seriously if someone uses the art of Fengshui in gambling.

After all, these people that use lucky stuff take care of their bankroll. Why other people should bother with that?

Correct. Let's just mind our own business and let these people just do what they want.

Each of us has the right to believe in what he likes, but personally I am skeptical of both feng shui and all sorts of talismans that bring good luck. I am sure that man's luck does not depend on his faith, but faith can have a positive effect on self-discipline, which in turn can affect the choices that a person makes. This is the only thing I see as an advantage of believing in this or that belief, which cannot be proven by experience.

I just know that feng shui is not only about lucky symbols but also about the position or layout of something. For example, if a person wants to play gambling and he uses feng shui, he will learn first which position will help him to be able to get positive energy that can give him hope to win.

This is not to get lucky but just to tell the position where he can gamble. For example, from feng shui information, he knows that if he faces east, he can get good luck and follow it. But still, this is not to lure luck into coming. But I don't really know about feng shui.

[danherbias07]

I know some of this in our small local poker room. Like the doors should be in the right place and the tables must be facing the right direction.
The manager explained why but I cannot remember the detailed reasons anymore and all I could recall is it was about feng shui.
As a Filipino being influenced by Chinese traditions, we have lots of approaches in-house for good luck but I have not much when it comes to gambling.
One that I mostly do before playing the game is washing hands, keeping it clean will avoid bad luck from coming in, or you will have a good start.
But that's only for physical gambling, I don't do it anymore ever since I played online.

there is no loss if they try extending their luck in business so why not give it  a shot, but this does not mean they are totally believing about what fengshui can bring , though in my own experiences ? there are also some clients  of mine that totally trusting in this belief and yes , they believe that this will give them luck and will make them rich in some point.
but if you think this will help? then why not since luck is all we needed in gambling and nothing more.

[inthelongrun]

Most non-Chinese casinos around the world observed and respected Chinese beliefs for marketing purposes. China is the most populated country in the world. China is the second biggest economy in the world. And there are also hundreds of millions of people that shared Chinese blood and beliefs in other countries like Vietnam, Singapore, and many others. It's too big of a market to ignore especially if you're an international casino or a casino located in a tourist country where many Chinese flocks.

I agree to that, there are many Chinese folks around the world and they share beliefs that some gamblers follows.

Not just because they really believing on it but through some running blood inside them thy continue to believe that there

are relations with fengshui and the luck that you can have if you do follow that kind of superstitious belief.

maybe on their own opinion there's relevance but it's about luck and strategy that  really matters when dealing with gambling.

In this case, it is clear for the Chinese community itself that Feng Shui is something that is considered sacred because this is indeed a legacy from their previous ancestors which is used to regulate all forms of action wherever and whenever there is hope that there will be harmony there.
This is indeed quite good for people who believe because with this they will have a suggestion to themselves that with good Feng Shui they can become lucky. but in this case it is possible only for people who believe in such a thing.

You know that people are really that different where there are some who do really love to engage nor really loves to criticize on someone who are opposing into things that they are believing into,
thats why they would say negative things instead of ignoring them yet as mentioned that they have done nothing wrong plus its their money that had been spent so its not on our business
to say on how they would really be handling theirselves when they do gambling Fengshui or gestures might really be that common on some players but there's no proof that these
things could really make out some effect or alteration on someones luck.

And gambling is in the blood of Chinese people as they are a very old civilization and that's why they were able to come up with everything, not just in gambling beliefs but throughout history they have a footprint on it.

So no wonder even the West believes in so many superstitions that originated from China and then adapt them to attract the number gambling people in the world.

[Mauser]

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

I had no idea casinos would use Fengshui to help in designing the layouts. It kind of makes sense now because Fengshui is trying to achieve harmony through only using round shapes. A friend had his apartment setup with a ying and yang approach, so not using any edges or squares, everything has to be round and a fixed place to get the most positive energy out of it. I am not really believing all of this, but it makes a little sense now. I noticed myself that casinos are build up like a long maze with no real start and finish, it's like a flow of water that keeps on moving, you can spend hours and hours in a casino walking around. The design seems similar to adventure parks where you want to let the guest feel excitement all along the way and the whole design is buildup to make everything feel bigger that it is in reality.

[madnessteat]

I think the casino design you're talking about is built in such a way not only for the purpose of developing space for Feng Shui and more for marketing purposes because if you enjoy being in such an atmosphere, wander the halls of the casino at times interrupting their journey by various games is likely no matter how successful your game day you will return to the institution again.

Yes, this is an interesting marketing and at the same time philosophical decision. 

Gambling involves winning or losing the player.  At the same time, the main emphasis in them is on the process of the game, and not on the result.  This is what feng shui principles are for. 

A casino is a place where time flows, but is not fixed.  It is like a fairy tale, the hero of which spent 30 years in the fairy kingdom, and when he left it, he was amazed that all the inhabitants of his village had grown old. 

However, he himself did not feel the passage of time.  This is the essence of the casino. 

No wonder there are no clocks in any casino.  The clock distracts the player from the "endless" process of the game.

[karabiber]

It was mountainous terrain where i gambled and there were figures of dragons. Now i understand better why this happened. The casino located in the middle of the mountainous terrain, symbolized the protection of the turtle. The dragon symbolizes protection. These two examples reflect wealth and protection in the subconscious. I think energy is important in gambling. Casinos use these methods to create a perception in people's brains and keep their beliefs fresh. But remember, the table always wins. Although they encourage us with various energies in gambling know yourself well and do not become addicted.

[Oasisman]

This is what we called superstitious belief, right?

That is correct! Though it most certainly not gonna change anything as it's just called a belief, we don't know either if it really works. So, some people stands on Pascal's wager philosophy, as you lose nothing if you believe, but will gain everything if it's proven to be true and that really make sense.
In business, you only wish for good luck so might as well attract them with what you believe is inviting the spirits of good luck to have them in your business.

That's gonna be the simplest explanation for those people who practiced feng sui. However, feng sui itself is a business lol.

I think that Feng Shui is based on good design, nice airflow, etc. All those things are real, of course. But the notion that there are bad or good energies is not really scientific.

I think Feng Shui might be considered as a basic explanation for why some places feel better than others, but we do have better tools in science that describe those flows in much more detail, interior design usually uses those tools to create amazing indoor spaces.

I don't know much about the various symbols you said but it could be that the casino was designed using the Fengshui method so that it will make the casino more popular in the future. And indeed, in the end, the casinos always win big money from the losing gamblers and if we don't control ourselves, we are bound to lose a lot. And even if we use Fengshui too, I don't think it can beat the Fengshui of the casino because the casino will hire a Fengshui expert who is very experienced.

Mostly the fung shui is like giving a good ambience or energy to the business itself by that the feel of the people in the particular place is light and they feel more energetic by that they can attract more positivity in their environment well nothing will be lost if we try this in our business in my country this thing is normal to give more luck and positive vibes every time we work mostly that's the reason why gambling casino have this too.

It's just a matter of belief and I respect some people who are leaning for these things for luck, I mean each of us here have our own respective and distinctive beliefs, and some uses them in gambling to somehow make it as their lucky charm or to make them comfortable while doing the activity.

But for me, I don't really believe into these kind of things. I have my own belief and that is religion but towards things? Nope, that's just a pure man made for me and not an additional factor to make us luckier than any other who don't also believe in these things. But as I said, that's just my opinion and I respect other beliefs.

people who believe in feng shui have the belief that a calm mind from the stability of incoming light, room temperature or incoming air flow affects one's thoughts and also one's luck.

Mostly the fung shui is like giving a good ambience or energy to the business itself by that the feel of the people in the particular place is light and they feel more energetic by that they can attract more positivity in their environment well nothing will be lost if we try this in our business in my country this thing is normal to give more luck and positive vibes every time we work mostly that's the reason why gambling casino have this too.

in my city everyone (not just casino business owners) who use construction services will definitely be required to use feng shui services for room plans, they believe that building owners and building plans must be in harmony.

The topic you have shared is about how businesses apply feng-shui to their establishments so I think your question of yours is not related but rather it's a different story since you are asking now if gamblers have feng-shui practice when gambling.

To the caption, you have shared, almost all establishments around the world do really have a feng-shui practice. Not to purely expect luck but just a guide as there's nothing wrong with doing that especially if the design and layout are really good in our eyes. That attracts customers.

To the question of yours, no I don't have any Fengshui practice as I want luck to come with me based on my own analysis - talking about sports betting.

In the same way here every time i went into different establishments there's a feng shui belief that's why there a lot of figurines, candles, plants and different layouts of good ambience actually look like the same connection with the architecture of the establishments well nothing will lose if we do this as a belief of others too the end of the day it is all about the decision of the establishment or casino how they money grow.

[Strongkored]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

My understanding of fengshui is for how to attract positive energy when building a house so don't know that it can also work when gambling, and so far have never had anything special done before gambling to be able to get lucky when gambling everything is done normally.

I really don't know about this Feng Shui stuff that is good about business and lucky about something, etc. I've been hearing that thing since I was a kid but when I got older it's still didn't get me interested because even if they had a good explanation about it, all I see is a businessman trying to get by on his business on selling stuffs connected to Feng Shui and they also have this expert that you can call to make your business and house blessed.

It's still a man made thing for me that's why I don't believe it, it has nothing to do with my religion but I respect and understand other people's belief if they are happy and comfortable about Feng Shui stuffs. Anyway, it's their money to buy that stuffs and as long as nobody will be hurt then I think that's just fine.

Same sentiment, as long as there is not bothering anyone, and they are using their own money,

it's on them to take the things that they believe will help them in winning their gambling activities. I don't know if there's anything
relevant to change the luck of your bets.

But if they (the people who are believing) think that they will have a much better chance of winning, then so be it and let them think
that it will. Nothing will change mine and their perspectives.

[mindrust]

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

Gambling is about luck and luck is about math. Feng, Dong, Cheng, Chiang or any other Chinese dude has nothing to do with this. Mathematics has no religion or no nationality.

Even if was working, you may follow whatever crap Feng is teaching and the casino may as well do the same thing. Then what? It is a draw again. Then your luck is going to be the deciding factor once again.

yes that's right, our understanding is the same.
Fengshui practices are commonly used in arranging buildings, objects and spaces in an environment to achieve harmony and balance in a way that will bring peace and prosperity.

I am quite confused by the practice of fengshui in gambling, let alone which can be used for luck in gambling, as for what I know for another matter is the symbols or numbers in ancient Chinese theory which are believed to have certain meanings.
Despite all that I don't think luck in gambling has anything to do with the practice of Pengshui.

[Pierre 2]

Looks like some cultures like Chinese have different traditions about symbols, icons and even numbers. I am personally materialist so I find it bit boring. Although I understand when people say some icons give them bad vibes. Their argument would be in general "these are unlucky for me". But I think we can connect all those "unlucky" symbols to their bad communal and personal memories. Gambling is all about how you "feel" so I think its normal people prefer good auras around them.

It is somehow can give them an emotional support, I mean it helps them to change their mindset by following this things. Though some of people doesn't believe in this kind of things and beliefs still we need to respect them, and that's their way to cope with whatever situation they are currently facing right now, if fengshui will give them peace of mind before playing gambling and help them to manage their emotion then let them be. Believing in this kind of thing will not remove anything from them, following lucky numbers, colors  etc will give trigger some emotions that can help them to make a strategy while gambling.

Agree on this. Chinese is very persistent people and they are using there belief as foundation for there perseverance. There fengshui gives them positivity on gambling that’s why most of them only play when they feel that they are lucky because there goal is clear and they can focus on the game without emotional hindrance. This fenshui works for them that’s why it’s highly valuable on chinese culture.

But the real question is, did it really work? Because if it does work, then most of the chinese gamblers are already rich. I believe that gamblers are only rich when they are the one owning the casino or the business.

Yup, as long as they are happy and contented about it. You know Feng Shui stuffs comes with a hefty price and every year it will change because of the zodiac signs and alignment of the things, celestial objects or whatever it is but I can still see lots of people who are willing to buy some stuffs because of the word luck which made me wonder about their side.

I'll just think that it is just their own kind of way to be comfortable and confident when it comes to gambling as they think it will bring them money or luck.

[Sirait]

It's still a man made thing for me that's why I don't believe it, it has nothing to do with my religion but I respect and understand other people's belief if they are happy and comfortable about Feng Shui stuffs. Anyway, it's their money to buy that stuffs and as long as nobody will be hurt then I think that's just fine.

Same sentiment, as long as there is not bothering anyone, and they are using their own money,

it's on them to take the things that they believe will help them in winning their gambling activities. I don't know if there's anything
relevant to change the luck of your bets.

But if they (the people who are believing) think that they will have a much better chance of winning, then so be it and let them think
that it will. Nothing will change mine and their perspectives.

using feng shui for buildings is not only looking for luck but is also one of the tricks on how to make the players in the building feel comfortable playing gambling for a long time. a comfortable place - peace of mind - then the players will automatically spend more of their money, so if someone really have more money, using fengshui services is really worth it.

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of rule-based superstition. Which is an interesting thing to think about from the marketing perspective. Is there a feng shui rulebook/superstition list or do people just randomly make this stuff up? Because that would make a lot more sense. Not that anything about feng shui makes sense in the price place.

I know they even hire special feng shui people in china for the feng shui of architecture, for example. Those guys earn a very pretty penny in doing their job but also being known as a feng shui master. So, like a celebrity architect basically.

As long  you dont hurt others or making yourself hurt or something in between two then i dont see anything wrong with it.People are just too judgemental on what others been doing.

I also don't understand why other people are taking things seriously if someone uses the art of Fengshui in gambling.

After all, these people that use lucky stuff take care of their bankroll. Why other people should bother with that?

Correct. Let's just mind our own business and let these people just do what they want.

The point stated above as long as you don't hurt anyone and you are not hurt is very important and that is something I have been thinking recently.

I have seen people who don't minding hurting people emotionally, mentally or financially and physically and that is something which I have gone through - emotional and financial loss - and I alway think in a free time what people have done to me.

If Fengshui or any traditional belief helps people succeed in gambling or if it gives them more confidence to enjoy the game, I see nothing wrong with it. We always have the freedom to choose and I guess people who believe in Fenshui find it as an effective strategy to win. We have different beliefs and we could always apply what's effective for us.

I think more of it as a tool to boost our confidence and give us comfort while we're betting/gambling but that is just an if on my side because I don't really believe in these things like Feng Shui or Mantra at all, but I understand and respect people who have a different view and has belief towards Feng Shui as they think it gives them luck or anything like that. As long as they respect mine then they will receive the same treatment from me.

You have to stay focused on the primary goal, win! we must reach victory by our abilities, anything that helps to achieve victory is welcome, but we must not lose the objective and then putting esotericism or luck beliefs at the forefront of your chances of winning.

You are right but then there are superstitious beliefs and there is no denial that they do exists.
and people of different belief from different countries have a strong trust on their lucky charms. so lets respect other people opinion.

[Pierre 2]

Looks like some cultures like Chinese have different traditions about symbols, icons and even numbers. I am personally materialist so I find it bit boring. Although I understand when people say some icons give them bad vibes. Their argument would be in general "these are unlucky for me". But I think we can connect all those "unlucky" symbols to their bad communal and personal memories. Gambling is all about how you "feel" so I think its normal people prefer good auras around them.

It is somehow can give them an emotional support, I mean it helps them to change their mindset by following this things. Though some of people doesn't believe in this kind of things and beliefs still we need to respect them, and that's their way to cope with whatever situation they are currently facing right now, if fengshui will give them peace of mind before playing gambling and help them to manage their emotion then let them be. Believing in this kind of thing will not remove anything from them, following lucky numbers, colors  etc will give trigger some emotions that can help them to make a strategy while gambling.

Agree on this. Chinese is very persistent people and they are using there belief as foundation for there perseverance. There fengshui gives them positivity on gambling that’s why most of them only play when they feel that they are lucky because there goal is clear and they can focus on the game without emotional hindrance. This fenshui works for them that’s why it’s highly valuable on chinese culture.

But the real question is, did it really work? Because if it does work, then most of the chinese gamblers are already rich. I believe that gamblers are only rich when they are the one owning the casino or the business.

I definitely agree with arguments stating that fengshui may help their gambling life, it obviously doesn't hurt anyone. If you do not believe you are not gonna be affected anyways. But I also want to repeat real question, does it really work for them to win besides good feelings? If it does I may personally love to try it. I love to try many different things in life, because life is all about experiences. But I also "personally" (I must add this) wanna benefit over. But maybe expecting benefits is bad fengshui already? Hard to be sure.

I don't know if feng shui have such book of rules or things to do but some asian people who were near in china adopted this feng shui superstition. My country also have adopted this feng shui superstition since our country has many Chinese people. As far as I know feng shui improve the quality of life and more about positivity it also has some belief about placements of things to avoid bad luck and attract lucks. Chinese casino owners obviously will do this superstition since they are facilitating a casino and it involves money, This is why I think luck is very crucial to them. Imagine they are hiring some feng shui expert just to accommodate the superstition, This shows that they are taking it seriously.

Totally depends on the culture because we know that every race or countries does have their superstitions and beliefs which means that we should respect on what other people been believing into.
As long they arent hurting or affecting someone then just let them be on what they are doing  even though on general sense we do know that there's no such thing on this world could really make
out some affect or influence on how lucky you are unless if you are dealing with strategy based where analysis could also play a big role on making  winning chances high compared when you
are dealing with pure luck based games which would really be an another story.

I think luck has a separate culture within every culture. For example, I am not sure but Europeans have bad luck and good luck superstitions like not breaking mirrors or walking under ladders. Though from my own perspective its a nothing-burger but from other people's perspective they would even give up money to have good luck / not to have bad luck. This definitely is a huge marketing help/hindrance for marketers, especially gambling casino marketing people.

I wonder now are there global gambling superstitions? Something like signs every gambler would see as luck or unluck?

Because certain religions see Fengshui as paganism or witchcraft.  It is a forbidden art for their religion and those who prefer "salvation"  over the luck that Feng Shui gives will seriously take action against it.  While others are just aggressively imposing their belief that Feng Shui does not make sense because there is no scientific proof about it.

Many people are very skeptical about accepting something different because they live in a bubble....
They don't know the diversity that exists in this world. For example: what in one country is sacred in another is food... this is crazy, but it's the world we live in, something absurd for someone can be normal for others.
People need to know how to live with this, adapting to the laws of each country, obviously, but looking for a certain tolerance for it.

Then these people should not cross-borders. If they think that Fengshui is a sort of sorcery or what then so be it. No need to go against people doing it.

On the other hand, associating luck, even though there's no science behind it, is already a common practice in gambling.

Even for me, I just don't like to throw away my money in random gambling. While putting my best skills to improve my winning results, I also have a sort of luck-related stuff to accompany me on my gambling journey.

i believe, when it comes to belief and culture of every person, is just respect them for what they believe in. if you happen to travel around the world, you will learn to respect the culture of the people, and be more open about diversities that you will encounter with them. it may or may not be against your beliefs, but the most important thing is to respect them.

[harizen]

That's why a debate pointing and related to own beliefs such as religions, politics, or something along those genres, do have a never-ending argument since most people on their respective sides will stand strong to support their beliefs and won't allow or welcome any views and opinions.

Related to gambling, I'm sure most gamblers don't care if they saw the same gambler doing and applying feng-shui to their gambling activity. That was just a waste of time for them and won't increase their chances of winning if they will put some fun into doing those stuff.

We can't do something about those people who disrespect the belief.

These are much associated with spiritual people, which means they have the better learning about it. The younger generation doesn't believe on acts that doesn't have the proof. These are well connected with cultural and traditional activity. Many follow it for a reason, but when it comes to gambling whatever you follow you're luck decides the outcome.

Every area that has that culture will continue to carry out its culture because it is a tradition in their place of residence. But maybe the younger generation who don't want to be involved in that culture will leave it because they think it doesn't make sense. But one day, there will be people who will miss the local culture of their place and they want to do it again. So gambling and feng shui may still be related to the culture of a country because they are still using it today.

I think the history of human civilization has never been separated from the myths of various beliefs that have become local cultures in all corners of the world. and modern society today calls it superstition.

regarding gambling and fengshui, if there is a correlation regarding the relationship, I think it is legitimate that someone believes in it or practices it.

as for what @famosos said there is nothing wrong with his opinion, I think everyone has a different perspective on the OP's post that is being discussed in this discussion, especially with regards to gambling. and I have to say if one's main goal is WIN, One must have a strategy that minimizes the risk of losing.

Indeed, there will always be areas that pass down their traditions to their descendants, even though their children are modern, still there are
families who still respect their ancestral culture. Therefore, traditional things such as the use of feng shui are still there who support it and pass on
the culture so that it does not become extinct. Even some of my friends still believe in feng shui when it comes to making important decisions,
including when he plays gambling. My friend has always believed in feng shui to bring good luck. For those of me who don't believe in feng shui,
I can only let what my friends believe. I think if we meet people who believe in feng shui and we don't believe in it, we don't need to forbid it,
as long as the person doesn't force us to believe in feng shui too.

I agree with this. Despite being in modern times, there are really a lot of places that decided to maintain and pass on their culture and tradition. There are many people as well who do this despite the technological advancement. There's nothing reallly wrong with it as long as they are not stooping on other people's rights and at the same time causing harm to those around them just because of their beliefs.

Personally, I know many people that still believes in feng shui. I have friends and acquaintances that are still believing in following feng shui for the decision they will make and placements of things for example at home. There are certain ways people believing in such think and act. They do something when it is right and perfect according to the feng shui timing and we don't have to shame them from doing so. After all, it's their life and whatever works for them is definitely none of our business.

Others didn't know that many professional and rich business people are applying feng-shui in their daily lives.

Even their respective own establishments always have a touch of feng-shui to bring luck. Look at them now, most are successful in their business. Of course, they don't just rely on luck but they also applied hard work, smark work, time and effort, perseverance, focus, and seriousness that's why they reached their decent status.

That also applies to professional gamblers. These people know that those feng-shui or lucky charms didn't affect their winnings but if they will combined luck beliefs + smart gambling, seems that is effective in the long run so they keep using that way.

Yes, that's correct. Old people who pass their traditions to their descendants will always say to take care of them and pass it on to their children and grandchildren. And if there are people who still use local cultures such as feng shui and others, we better leave it alone and respect it because it is their culture. It might seem strange, but that's the reality that still happens in some places. We're also free to use what we want and as long as it doesn't get in the way of things, I think that's fine.

Many great people were superstitious. 

For example, the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte believed in omens.  He sincerely believed in rock (fatum). 

This is due to the fact that no matter how smart a person is, he is not able to fully understand the world around him.  The human brain has its limits in the knowledge of the surrounding reality.  After all, the human brain is just an evolved primate brain. 

Therefore, a person fills in the gaps in his knowledge with faith or superstition.  This does not prevent a person from being efficient and successful. 

Therefore, feng shui is very popular (including in the field of gambling).

[D ltr]

some people will say superstition, but it all goes back to each individual about luck and fengshui itself, different in my country there are also those that are so like auspicious days, good dates and usually for weddings not for gambling

[serjent05]

I don't mind people believing in superstition as long as that belief doesn't affect their surroundings negatively.  Or that belief motivates him to be a better person.  Like in Fengshui, the peace of mind brought by aligning the house decor according to Fengshui brings to the health and good mood of a person will surely make the person friendly, cooperative a good influence to the society.

Well gambling and Feng Shui both originated in China so it is obvious that the gambling industry is also influenced by Chinese traditions thus for the popularity of belief in the effect of Feng shui in the gambling activities

Yes, I think that Feng Shui is not that often used anymore these days because the people these days are so focused in other things together with the advancement of technologies. But in Asia, I think it's still a thing especially for the Chinese people and their neighboring countries.

Feng Shui for me is just a tool to make us confident and feel lucky but it won't be that effective either if we don't work hard for it. Nevertheless, with or without that things, we make our own fate and it's up to us what we want to our lives.

If in construction they trust Fengshui for a better layout, then it proves that Fengshui can indeed be applied in gambling too. It's interesting to practice, I think because they prioritize calm, while in gambling, calm is also one of the factors that must be felt and the atmosphere must be built. At least to make the gambler's own emotions stable because that way, they will have more controlled emotions and that will be good for themselves in gambling.

some people will say superstition, but it all goes back to each individual about luck and fengshui itself, different in my country there are also those that are so like auspicious days, good dates and usually for weddings not for gambling

I don't think it's superstition because from what I've read, feng shui is the science of layout harmonizing with the owner. So by knowing about the person's matters and using the calculation of feng shui, it will get results expected to bring good to that person. But I don't know if it's applied to gambling because I don't know much about it and don't learn about fengshui. But some people call that related to superstition as things are not available in many countries and cultures.

I'm more into superstitious since only believers see the difference while non-believers can't explain how things work, especially inside gambling where most of the time it's about luck and how you'll going to play with your emotions nad controls. Fengshui is available around
selected places where Chinese culture was being adopted.

Not an expert and also not that kind of believer, I will not argue if there's other people who see this as effective as it can be.

Most of the time it's just luck. No need for in-depth explanation. If the jackpot falls unto you then it's your lucky day. If not, then that's different. Feng shui and other beliefs exist to strengthen or condition the human mind to be positive, but it does not, in any way, affect reality whatsoever. It's okay to believe them but not to the point that you'll be basing everything on what a thousand-year old belief system says.

Not really bad to have that kind of belief but pushing yourself for this thing to work then it would be a different story and it is true that you shouldnt really be basing up everything because in gambling then it is really just

pure luck nothingless but there are really people who are really that a fan of following and believing on things but we cant really blame them though as long they arent hurting or affecting someone then its their call.

Sooner or later they would neither realized or not that it wont really be having any effect or anything that could really give out some significant relevance in terms of luck and winning on some games.

It's pseudoscience but its method isn't scientifically based. I guess you're believing that it's science-based because of the calculation. But if you'll analyze the whole thing and also research what it means, you'll find that it's just all about superstitions. As being applied to lives and how to get luck, then it's also applicable to gambling and you'll see gamblers believing on it will say that they've been lucky because they've followed a certain suggestion from feng shui like putting some vase on the north side of the house, etc.

[jostorres]

You have to stay focused on the primary goal, win! we must reach victory by our abilities, anything that helps to achieve victory is welcome, but we must not lose the objective and then putting esotericism or luck beliefs at the forefront of your chances of winning.

If you are a professional gambler where there are people relying on your back, yes your main focus must be on the winning side but if you are not like that, I don't think win must be prioritized because your money is the only one that is staked here, you don't have sponsors which can cover your expenses and we all know that its hard to win in gambling.

You will have a tendency to come back and do that same ritual again. That's why I think it's wrong but our main focus in that case is only to get entertained and if we are playing to get entertained we won't risk bigger amounts. We can also control ourselves easily. We don't play again right after we lose our balance.

[Fortify]

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

the MGM Grand had to change its entrance, one that formerly forced customers to walk through the mouth of a lion (actually, under its chin, but close enough), deemed to be a very bad mojo by players from Asia.

The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

While it may sometimes be aesthetically pleasing to have some spaces shaped around the concept of Feng Shui, in most other places it's just called common sense design practices. Optimizing the layout of every room and making them practical is hardly exclusive to Chinese design. It's a bit of a shame to see an example of how a colorful and creative artistic idea like walking through the mouth of a Lion, which would hardly get much attention in somewhere like America, has been removed to account for the tastes of a whole other continent - but it seems they were willing to drop it for the sake of chasing extra player money. Same with removing numbers to pander to superstitions, should we remove 4's from a deck of poker cards because certain people think they are a spooky number?

This is actually like a suggestion given because indeed when we believe in something like an amulet or indeed a convincing word from someone, it will clearly give ourselves more stimulus to believe there.
Likewise with Feng Shui when they believe there this will give a stronger impetus to believe that they will be lucky even though in fact gambling things like this are very hard to believe.

I would say the only professional gamblers are the people employed by the casinos. They play the same, always, and have a slight advantage compared to the players that bring their money into the casino.

If it were possible to consistently earn a lot of money from the casino, then they wouldn't be as profitable as they are.

The math is clear, in the long term, the house wins.

[btc78]

My Mother is a great follower of fengshui , our house designed fully with fengshui so I think I even manage to take some when i  bought my own house.

But putting this into gambling activities or something in related ? i don't think fengshui will attract luck when it is for gambling.

But yeah  I also observed in some casino houses that  it was designed with this belief , maybe for the Dealers to win over gamblers? lol

[michellee]

so far some countries still have traditional local gambling but for feng shui gambling I have not found anymore, now the digital world has developed and more children or teenagers spend their time in front of their computers or smartphones to try to make money with fast.

Maybe feng shui is not used anymore, especially among teenagers or adults, but I think there are still people who still use feng shui and we just don't know it. Maybe in traditional local gambling in countries that still have a culture that uses it because they think that life is governed by it and we must follow these rules, including in playing gambling.

Yes, I think that Feng Shui is not that often used anymore these days because the people these days are so focused in other things together with the advancement of technologies. But in Asia, I think it's still a thing especially for the Chinese people and their neighboring countries.

Feng Shui for me is just a tool to make us confident and feel lucky but it won't be that effective either if we don't work hard for it. Nevertheless, with or without that things, we make our own fate and it's up to us what we want to our lives.

I think Feng Shui is still used in China or at least the Chinese people, whether living in China or other countries. Those who learn the science of Feng Shui still use it for various purposes and there may also be those who use it for gambling.

Although Feng Shui is like a tool to make us confident, we should not rely too much on how we gamble on Feng Sui because if the result is different from what we get from Feng Shui, we will be disappointed.

[Smartprofit]

Therefore, a person fills in the gaps in his knowledge with faith or superstition.  This does not prevent a person from being efficient and successful. 

Therefore, feng shui is very popular (including in the field of gambling).

I don't mind people believing in superstition as long as that belief doesn't affect their surroundings negatively.  Or that belief motivates him to be a better person.  Like in Fengshui, the peace of mind brought by aligning the house decor according to Fengshui brings to the health and good mood of a person will surely make the person friendly, cooperative a good influence to the society.

Well gambling and Feng Shui both originated in China so it is obvious that the gambling industry is also influenced by Chinese traditions thus for the popularity of belief in the effect of Feng shui in the gambling activities

In my opinion, gambling did not originate in China. 

It's just that China is the oldest surviving civilization (China is about 5,000 years old).  But there were other ancient civilizations (Babylon, Mycenae, Atlantis, Incas, etc.) All these civilizations perished. 

However, I am sure that the inhabitants of these ancient countries were also very fond of gambling.  Because excitement and risk-taking are the basic properties of a person.  As far as feng shui is concerned, it is a purely Chinese invention. 

Since China is a very ancient civilization, love of tradition and fatalism are cultivated there.  And in gambling, fatalism is very important.

[madnessteat]

I agree with this. Despite being in modern times, there are really a lot of places that decided to maintain and pass on their culture and tradition. There are many people as well who do this despite the technological advancement. There's nothing reallly wrong with it as long as they are not stooping on other people's rights and at the same time causing harm to those around them just because of their beliefs

Others didn't know that many professional and rich business people are applying feng-shui in their daily lives.

Even their respective own establishments always have a touch of feng-shui to bring luck. Look at them now, most are successful in their business. Of course, they don't just rely on luck but they also applied hard work, smark work, time and effort, perseverance, focus, and seriousness that's why they reached their decent status.

That also applies to professional gamblers. These people know that those feng-shui or lucky charms didn't affect their winnings but if they will combined luck beliefs + smart gambling, seems that is effective in the long run so they keep using that way.

Many successful people have never resorted to Feng Shui but still managed to make a huge fortune so it can not be a fact that Feng Shui helps to find good luck in business and in gambling. In my opinion, the main factor in achieving a goal is persistence, self-belief and hard work. If in business you can negotiate with competitors and partners and change something, then in gambling you can only hope for luck.

Yeah, for good luck and for the house edge. Well, it's a place where people gather that's why it should look as better as it could be and that includes those who believe in traditional things like Fengshui. If their players will think it's for their good luck, then good. If not, then they could just find another place where Fengshui is not applied.
I don't believe wholly in the perspective but as my friend told me, you lose nothing when you do.

Those things are just for superstitious person but for people who don't believe anything but luck or on their skilled for sure they will just ignore the thoughts that they will be more lucky if they apply what Feng sui stated to them or guide them to do.

But we can't argue with those people who believe on it because if this one could make them feel relax and motivated then that's it as long as they are happy what they are doing then everything is good.

~ How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

This very question sounds like an insult to me. How could you assume me being so stupid?! 

But if seriously, no, I respect other people's beliefs. Believe what you want, just don't kill me for not being a big fan of your way of thinking. So, if gambling following some Feng Shui rules makes you happier, I'm totally OK with that. Only, Feng Shui or not, don't bet more than you can afford to lose. Just in case.

We can always be strategic when it comes to gambling and we could also rely on our personal beliefs but we can't expect others to have the same strategy or belief as we do. Fengshui I think won't work especially for those who don't believe in it. It's just a good thing that we have the freedom to rely on our beliefs, culture, and faith in gambling.

This is something that is interesting because regardless of belief or it is not clear when in gambling still we do as we want not other people. Quite agree with what you say, maybe in terms of respect for others who believe maybe we won't bother with it but that doesn't mean we should also follow it especially if something like this might go against your belief in gambling.

That's okay if you prefer superstition because people will choose what he likes. But we agree that this is a culture from China that has developed rapidly and even in some countries, Fengshui is still used because they still trust it to get information. Maybe ordinary people who do not know about things like this will never know what and how and it is up to them to respond.

It's pseudoscience but its method isn't scientifically based. I guess you're believing that it's science-based because of the calculation.

It's not scientific but it includes things that are complicated to explain, especially for people who don't understand superstition, Fengshui, and others. Maybe it's superstition but there are still people who will believe it and use it. I only know that Fengshui is about the position of how we should arrange the layout or position that can give positive energy to be in harmony and can also give positive energy to our lives.

as I have said, that fengshui will not only be effective for those who believe but will also be effective for those who do not believe in it. if you are in a gambling building that uses fengshui, you will definitely feel comfortable and the air flow there will make you feel at home for a long time, without you realizing you have entered into the effectiveness of fengshui even though you don't believe it.

Respect people's beliefs? What does that even mean? When I feel like something is stupid and is detached from reality I say it. If someone tells me to walk around the casino a few times to gather good energy before going in and then touch a rock and not to press 13 on the elevator I'll tell him what I think about his superstitions. When someone does stupid things like rapes a child because in his religion it's OK to have sex with an 8 year old, will you say nothing out of respect?
My respect for people ends the moment they start being irrational.

As I have never seen any study that shows that after an office space was ordered according to the guidelines of Feng Shui the productivity went up or the conflicts among the employees went down, to me this is just a way to cater to Chinese customers while at the same time the rest of the customers remain largely unaffected by those changes, so it is something with no downside for the casino.

That is one way to put it, casinos are pure business and they will money if they win over the gamblers and the house edge is in their advantage. So even if there's 20-30 successful gamblers in that specific day, that won't be a loss to the casino because there are more gamblers who are losing than winning.

Feng Shui can be find everywhere and it's more common if you're living in Asian countries or other foreign countries that have a Chinatown. I'm not that sure that is proven but believing on these things is not harmful either.

I guess if we look at it that way, ordering things around us to bring harmony and positive spirits then it could be good. However, if we inserted gambling to it and then totally rely on how those superstitious belief then it might not be good in the end. For casino though, they will have to adapt and evolve and maybe this is just one thing that they have incorporated in recent years to have sort of 'goodluck'.

If in business you can negotiate with competitors and partners and change something, then in gambling you can only hope for luck.

If feng shui had any practical utility, then it would be applied everywhere. But mostly it is used as a means of psychological complacency. If a person believes that some actions will bring him good luck/are simply right, then he receives a charge of positive emotions, regardless of whether he is right in his belief or not. Thus, feng shui only works if the person himself is sure that it works. In a way, this is the paradox of self-fulfilling expectations.

Maybe we don't find it in big companies in developed countries because only a small percentage of those companies still use traditional methods and look outdated. But we have to know that they have great respect for that culture and still use it because they believe in all of it or our lives there are calculations that we cannot make sense of. And there may still be gamblers who use Fengshui to help them get what they want.

I think the real understanding is not as simple as you think. Fengshui is a belief system from ancient Chinese heritage, and it is not a means of psychological gratification. however, the cultural practices applied are passed down from generation to generation.

Fengshui itself does not mean that one will get success after practicing it especially in this case gambling, of course as you said, if fengshui has practical uses, then it will be applied everywhere. it will never work.

I think the meaning of fengshui has strayed far from the original source. As far as I'm concerned, fengshui is the practice of harmonizing energy to achieve harmony and I'm not sure if fengsui can be linked to one's luck when gambling.

[Smartprofit]

In my understanding, Feng Shui is a way of organizing private or public space. 

In addition, the concept of Feng Shui is based on the concept of "Qi" energy.  The existence of the energy "Qi" is believed by supporters of the teachings of Taoism.  This energy is invisible.  Its existence is not confirmed by science. 

At the same time, harmony in the organization of personal space is very important.  This statement does not contradict even the Western mentality. 

If there is a mess around, it is difficult to think calmly and logically.  It's hard not to be stressed.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The effectiveness of Feng Shui on gambling can be easily verified with a study. Grab a bunch of people, note who follows Feng Shui, who doesn't and track their gambling performance. On a large enough scale I'm sure there will be no difference between the two groups. Otherwise the casinos would have gone bankrupt  

This study will surely show the ineffectiveness of Feng Shui in gambling activities.  For sure all of these subjects will have a different result, there might be a possibility that the subject that doesn't follow the Feng Shui will yield the highest winnings while those who follows might get their bankroll depleted.  Since the chance of winning in a gambling game is random, especially in a game of luck/chance.

I have seen many things, beliefs and everything regarding gambling, but feng shui? I know that some peronsa who own hotels, of paosadas are governed a lot by Feng Shui, but this is because they give harmony to their type of decocrazón, I have even seen people who seek balance with Feng Shui in their home, but With gambling I still do not see an apparent logic, I think that if we focus on the beliefs it can give results to some people doing it, but seeing it from the most logical sense it could not be had, except that a decoration style is put on the Feng Shui based casino.

In my understanding, Feng Shui is a way of organizing private or public space.  

In addition, the concept of Feng Shui is based on the concept of "Qi" energy.  The existence of the energy "Qi" is believed by supporters of the teachings of Taoism.  This energy is invisible.  Its existence is not confirmed by science.  

At the same time, harmony in the organization of personal space is very important.  This statement does not contradict even the Western mentality.  

If there is a mess around, it is difficult to think calmly and logically.  It's hard not to be stressed.

I agree with you, feng shiu is also considered to decorate and create harmony in closed spaces, especially in interior designers, a few years ago I was a good friend of a man who owned a very famous inn that is close to my house, and he He told me that an idea had come from a place he saw in New York that was based on decoration following Feng Shui, because there he saw precisely the harmony and wanted to implement it in his opsada, some time later he did it and if it was worth seeing , because it did make a difference and obviously attracted many clients, although I may have been amazed because I have always liked everything related to the hotel industry, especially those hotels that have casinos ready to play.

people do get the wrong idea or misconception when it comes to definition.

Feng shui's meaning can be broken down into the Chinese words "feng," meaning wind, and "shui," meaning water. The concept is derived from an ancient poem that talks about human life being connected to and flowing with the environment around it.

So basically means this is attached on arrangement on things and not some doing sort of action for you to be lucky.
In regarding the question if this one is connected or could connect then i dont see for it to be that relevant imho.

[Boristhecat]

If feng shui had any practical utility, then it would be applied everywhere. But mostly it is used as a means of psychological complacency. If a person believes that some actions will bring him good luck/are simply right, then he receives a charge of positive emotions, regardless of whether he is right in his belief or not. Thus, feng shui only works if the person himself is sure that it works. In a way, this is the paradox of self-fulfilling expectations.

I think the real understanding is not as simple as you think. Fengshui is a belief system from ancient Chinese heritage, and it is not a means of psychological gratification. however, the cultural practices applied are passed down from generation to generation.

Fengshui itself does not mean that one will get success after practicing it especially in this case gambling, of course as you said, if fengshui has practical uses, then it will be applied everywhere. it will never work.

I think the meaning of fengshui has strayed far from the original source. As far as I'm concerned, fengshui is the practice of harmonizing energy to achieve harmony and I'm not sure if fengsui can be linked to one's luck when gambling.

If we try to formalize the words that I have underlined, I am afraid that everyone will come to an individual result and it will be philosophical and not practical. This is what I wrote about - those people who use feng shui see it as a specific meaning for themselves and it works for them. If you try to transfer it to another person who has different views, then most likely he will say that Feng Shui does not work.

We are all superstitious its inherent to us as human beings, even if it is not Fengshui like shamanism or any religion they will always connect something into it to have good luck and be guided in a path of uncertainty, but Fengshui is not only about superstitious like what I've been saying it has something to do with harmonious and clear thinking, I do believe in Fengshui but I am not a serious practitioner but I notice people who seriously practice Fengshui are happy, clean people and very meticulous on how they place things and check up dates for their activity.

I agree, maybe we can compare it to mantra I guess? but all in all if they want to believe in Fengshui then let us believe in that, because I don't know why it is kinda effective or maybe because just like what you said, it gives them clear mind that will help them to decide and come up with strategies, people who believe in this are more discipline than to those who aren't just my observations no offense to those non believers.

That is correct and many people who say that they don't trust the fortune teller.
They can be the first one sitting to ask about their future if they happen to meet a palmist or tarot card reader.

Superstitions apart, fengshui does exist and works, at least from an harmonic, welfare point of view, as people feel much better and even more inspired at organized environments where the colors, items positions and layouts match with each other.

The environment affects and impacts our productivity and desire for improving our skills and the results we can achieve through them at every activities of our routine.

Regards gambling, I fear fengshui will be useful only to improve gamblers' confidence and pleasure of the betting experience, since outcomes don't depend on them, but on luck.

Gamblers confidence thinking that by following fengshui ideas will give them higher chance of winner.

No accurate relation and only inside a gambler's mind that he can win if he will choose to follow the position that according
to fengshui experts is what is best during their gambling sessions.

more on superstitions and no one can prove that it will work and help any gambler that will use this kind of setup.

[kotajikikox]

I think you can win or lose even without Fengshui , but if you are capable of paying those fengshui masters ? then why not lol .

but trust me ? this is expensive mate ,  because their skills and knowledge is considered as GEM from those believers .

I think it will be different from a mantra because a mantra is writing that is said before they do something. At the same time, fengshui is a description or information obtained after calculating the formulation and then arranging what is needed. We are not clear on what and how Fengshui is because we are not practitioners, so maybe those who continue to use it feel comfortable in their lives. Maybe someday we can find out more about this Fengshui to understand it better than now.

We know that a thing like this we don't have to trust anyone. And if we based on skill I think it will all sometimes what we need is continuous practics and the engagement that will enable to conquer whatever that comes across then. Some people do you have a skill but it does not work out according to what they have as a kill

[behandsomebecool]

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance

But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples

the MGM Grand had to change its entrance, one that formerly forced customers to walk through the mouth of a lion (actually, under its chin, but close enough), deemed to be a very bad mojo by players from Asia.

The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.

Fascinating Chinese Gambling Superstitions

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

lmao honestly I thought that feng shui is about putting furniture in the right parts of the room and all that I've never taken this seriously, as well as horoscopes, for example. Still, if it helps someone to win, then ok

I agree, there is no scientific explanation that Feng Shui can increase one's probability of winning as well as there's proof/evidence that it could give some luck. For me, it's just a regular lucky charm that we believe it can increase our chances but in reality, it doesn't work like that because it's only the confidence and comfortability in playing are the ones' that is increasing.
There's no right or wrong about believing in these things as long as we are not harming anyone and it's still clever to know your boundaries when it comes to activities like these.

if you study spiritual science then you will know that there are many powers beyond human understanding and one of them is Fengshui

Chinese traditions are indeed very unique and 90% of them believe more in fengshui when constructing buildings than building construction. One thing I salute the Chinese people is that they are trying to unite superstition with technology

[wiss19]

Yes that is what we know and we never thought that the objects that we saw outside are still part of this tradition. All the time we see them as a decoration but they do actually have some benefits like luck other than making the place look beautiful.

Now that you know maybe you can take them seriously next time like touching them and then do some prayers around these figures or you can also put some objects like this around your house or on your business place if you have one. Horoscopes is also said to bring luck but it's only specific depending on our birth month. You will need to follow a color or a thing and then maybe avoid those who said bad luck to you.

There's nothing wrong with it and since each race does have different culture and beliefs then lets just respect on what they are believing on rather than on making some issues or criticisms because if we
do look on them in regard with business and other industries then they've turned out to be that successful which is something that we cant really point out fingers.
Speaking with gambling then its a different thing and i dont see for it to be able to connected on something superstitious beliefs or correlated to it because
luck in gambling isnt something that you could really able to influence nor affect out.

exactly, let their belief be, as long as they don't force us to use and believe it. it doesn't matter. we also don't need to take a matter of what they believe,
a casino may build certain things with a feng shui environmental setting, they believe this will lead to more luck and profits,
and once more, this is about individual belief. there is nothing to blame

true, it is their tradition, we must respect it and not sneer at it but superstition until now is something that is quite firmly embedded in the traditions of Chinese society

in this modern era, western culture is really against their superstition and this makes western people more free because they don't carry out traditions that contain superstition but the Chinese still live it because they know tradition (barongsai, fengshui, gambling, and angpao) is something that must be preserved forever

[blockman]

It's pseudoscience but its method isn't scientifically based. I guess you're believing that it's science-based because of the calculation. But if you'll analyze the whole thing and also research what it means, you'll find that it's just all about superstitions. As being applied to lives and how to get luck, then it's also applicable to gambling and you'll see gamblers believing on it will say that they've been lucky because they've followed a certain suggestion from feng shui like putting some vase on the north side of the house, etc.

It's not scientific but it includes things that are complicated to explain, especially for people who don't understand superstition, Fengshui, and others. Maybe it's superstition but there are still people who will believe it and use it. I only know that Fengshui is about the position of how we should arrange the layout or position that can give positive energy to be in harmony and can also give positive energy to our lives.

There's no scientific basis for it but if you're going to look at the perspective of others, they believe that there's also a relation to science. Well, that's what they're believing.
But to me, it's not really related to science and all about the belief that has been passed on from generation to generation and until now, it's still keeps on living.

I think the thing that makes Feng Shui not scientific is that there is no scientific fact that the claim of Feng Shui is true.  There may be a study of Feng Shui but it is not under the branch of science.  I believe Fengshui is in the same category as Astrology.

It may be superstition but following it made a person better in terms of cleanliness, view on life and socialization.  We shouldn't frown on this kind of tradition because it does a good thing on the personality of those who believe it.  Besides, as long as it does not harm anyone, I don't mind people practicing it.

feng shui not only about putting furniture at right place but it also county about earth elements  at around the point. air , land , water and also fire element counted to get best flow . they believe good combination from all of these element will bring positive effect to their place. For chinese they really have to follow this rules to bring luck to their home. but for others maybe its looks funny. today , alot people outside chinese also use this technique to bring their luck .

Yes, that's it. There's no science-based fact on it as to why something happens and the luck of the person believing in it comes. A superstitious belief that we can understand easily.

I believe Fengshui is in the same category as Astrology. 

It's actually also used as astrology because of the information needed for a person to know if he's lucky or not. There's connection to astrology and feng shui and that has been widen by the culture of Chinese and other races that believes to it.

[gunhell16]

First of all, let's find out what Feng Shui means? and Why it should be followed according to
the beliefs and traditions of the Chinese people, because if you don't follow it, something bad will definitely happen to you.

What is Feng Shui?

Feng shui literally translates to wind (“feng”) and water (“shui”). In Chinese culture, both wind and water are associated with energy. The power of these elements can be harnessed to our benefit, or work as a force against us.

In short, this is a tradition and culture of the Chinese people that for them must really be believed and followed, or else you will be looked down upon no matter what you do in life. It's just like the topic you made for them if you want to win in the world of gambling those guides that they showed in the source you gave should be followed by gamblers who want to win and get lucky in gambling, that's all I see the objective of that article.

But in fairness, there are other people who are not Chinese but they follow this tradition thinking that it will bring them good luck in life and they did everything according to this Feng Shui.

From your statement it can be seen that only a few countries are still using this model game because many have switched to digital-based gambling and can provide entertainment that is quite enjoyable, the tradition from China is indeed very unique which finally makes some people believe in the existence of Feng Shui. and I'm pretty sure there's a variety of traditional gambling in every country that's still being played.

[lienfaye]

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

Feng shui is popular in asia and its like a supertitious belief that they say might work if you are a believer and following what is needed to be done e.g in your house, business etc. However there's no concrete basis that its really working for everyone even you follow, its just like you'll be lucky or you can push away the bad luck.

In my case I dont have this kind of practice when I play, whatever the result if I gamble so be it.

[ethereumhunter]

It may also be like what you say because we have seen that Fengshui still exists today even though some people only use it. After all, they still believe in the calculations of Fengshui. We can't change what they believe because it's their right, and maybe letting them stick with it according to their beliefs is the right thing to do. Maybe Fengshui will remain forever because the belief will still be passed down from generation to generation.

Many still believe in feng shui and that won't change. If they've grown up with that belief and think that it's very applicable to their lives, nothing will change.
As they live continually, that will be the belief that they've got because it's a matter of how they've seen the effects of it. They won't mind what the others are going to say because it's so effective for them and they've seen the belief of its good result.

[madnessteat]

If this belief gave good results then we would have seen completely different statistics from other countries on gambling in China where a very large number of people are committed to Feng Shui. But unfortunately there are also a lot of people who have become addicted to gambling and also a lot of people who are in debt because of gambling. So faith has no effect on good luck.

It's just like the topic you made for them if you want to win in the world of gambling those guides that they showed in the source you gave should be followed by gamblers who want to win and get lucky in gambling, that's all I see the objective of that article.

But in fairness, there are other people who are not Chinese but they follow this tradition thinking that it will bring them good luck in life and they did everything according to this Feng Shui.

People like to believe in things that give them luck. Who hasn't used a token in any form with the hope that it brings luck. Like bringing a small in your pocket to a big exam. As a kid I got some small crystal from my aunt from Africa, she told me that it has a lot of positive energy and I kept it with my pens through high school and university. Only the believe in it actually working helped me calm my nerves before important exams. The same thing is with Feng Shui, as long people believe in it it's helpful. A question I would have here is, if casinos build their casinos with a Feng Shui approach, are they doing so for the gambler or themselves? The gambler might look at it as better luck for his chance of winning. But isn't it also better luck for the casino owners to make more money? Or are these two cancelling  each other out and in the end nobody has a benefit.

[Peanutswar]

There's no scientific basis for it but if you're going to look at the perspective of others, they believe that there's also a relation to science. Well, that's what they're believing.
But to me, it's not really related to science and all about the belief that has been passed on from generation to generation and until now, it's still keeps on living.

It may also be like what you say because we have seen that Fengshui still exists today even though some people only use it. After all, they still believe in the calculations of Fengshui. We can't change what they believe because it's their right, and maybe letting them stick with it according to their beliefs is the right thing to do. Maybe Fengshui will remain forever because the belief will still be passed down from generation to generation.

Many still believe in feng shui and that won't change. If they've grown up with that belief and think that it's very applicable to their lives, nothing will change.
As they live continually, that will be the belief that they've got because it's a matter of how they've seen the effects of it. They won't mind what the others are going to say because it's so effective for them and they've seen the belief of its good result.

It is a spiritual belief there's a lot of introduction to us on how to get and attract luck and one of these in the other's culture is the Fengshui and this thing is always done by the people who make a try at the first time and experience the luck by that they now see this as part of their routine getting positive energy and also because of the possible luck it brings in the business other people do the same way, of course, people want to have a luck at the same time, if it works good if not still okay nothing lose.

I guess it's just really a matter of preference and a matter of belief. If you believe something might bring you luck and good provision then do it. As long as you won't harm anyone in the process of giving good luck to yourself, I don't see any problem. Each people have their own fair shares of beliefs, traditions, customs, and habits. Some were formed and introduced at an early age. If a person believes in feng shui, we don't have the right to question why they do because it's none of our business in the first place.

It's just that every people have their own strong suit. If they prefer to believe in one thing to gain confidence in doing anything such as gambling, then let's let them do it for themselves. After all, not everything is calculated. Sometimes, some things happen because of luck as well.

[acroman08]

lmao honestly I thought that feng shui is about putting furniture in the right parts of the room and all that I've never taken this seriously, as well as horoscopes, for example. Still, if it helps someone to win, then ok

placing furniture or even building a house based on feng shui is just a part of it but it is more than that. you'd be surprised what other things feng shui offers, I'm not a believer by the way and yeah, I consider it as a superstition but some people actually believe so much about it that I kind of feel that they consider it some kind of religion(some of my relatives are huge believers in it).

Lots of Fengshui believers in our country is also doing the same thing every new year believing that the arrangementt of their furniture has something to do with their luck. Fengshui is actually a broad thing for believers because they could relate everything to it. They could rely on their future, relationships, and fate on it.

If this belief gave good results then we would have seen completely different statistics from other countries on gambling in China where a very large number of people are committed to Feng Shui. But unfortunately there are also a lot of people who have become addicted to gambling and also a lot of people who are in debt because of gambling. So faith has no effect on good luck.

That's true, it resulted in those unfortunate moments for many of those that have thought that they're lucky as they are because they follow feng shui.
Well, for some it did work.
But many of them that have trusted the belief continue to trust it despite that they're not getting the best results that they want.

There's nothing wrong with it and since each race does have different culture and beliefs then lets just respect on what they are believing on rather than on making some issues or criticisms because if we
do look on them in regard with business and other industries then they've turned out to be that successful which is something that we cant really point out fingers.
Speaking with gambling then its a different thing and i dont see for it to be able to connected on something superstitious beliefs or correlated to it because
luck in gambling isnt something that you could really able to influence nor affect out.

true, it is their tradition, we must respect it and not sneer at it but superstition until now is something that is quite firmly embedded in the traditions of Chinese society

in this modern era, western culture is really against their superstition and this makes western people more free because they don't carry out traditions that contain superstition but the Chinese still live it because they know tradition (barongsai, fengshui, gambling, and angpao) is something that must be preserved forever

Culture and beliefs would really vary into each race's which we know that we do have set of beliefs which we do apply in our daily living and as said as long  they dont really
put any harm into other people then there's nothing wrong it it.Neither they do become successful due to those beliefs that they do have or not then its out of our business.
Gambling is purely  luck and having some placement and other positioning whether on the venue or other things around isnt something that could really put up
some effect or relevance for you on being lucky on the time you do play gambling.It doesnt really have any sense.

[judeafante]

If your ancestor or the culture that you are part of recommends something that will make you lucky, you will apply it to whatever you are doing, and if you're a gambler you try to apply it to give you a bit of luck, many Chinese businessmen believes and apply their business in accordance with Fengshui and its also as risky as gambling so why not try to apply it and see if you are going to get a good result.

Maybe they must adapt to their surroundings if they are still using Fengshui because other people will certainly not know or use it either. Thus, their lives can be in harmony with their surroundings and there will also be no problems arising. Other people will also not say things to them because the other person will not know what they are doing.

Actually it should be, "Faith has no effect on the MATH side of things". If we think about a player who believes in and uses Fengshui to "make him more lucky", and EVERYDAY he plays a casino game that has more than 3% edge against him, who does everyone believe will come out the winner after one year? I am very very sure the winner will be the casino, and the seller of Fengshui cat dolls.

Haha you are very correct in pointing out that the mathematical expectation cannot be changed by Fenshui.

In my opinion, the most correct solution that will benefit the gambler is the study of game theory, mathematical expectation and probability theory. This will really help you to understand what are the chances of winning in this or that game.

Feng suit and all other beliefs that people thinks it brought luck when they're gambling is only made to make you feel better when gambling. Being not in the mood while gambling might end up with bad decisions that'll probably going to make you broke. Though it doesn't really have any effects, but then again it is there just to make you feel better.
Nevertheless, calculating your winning rate and risk may help you avoid huge losses and uncontrolled betting.

Being optimistic to win is normal, but knowing your chance and the risk is realistic in gambling. Well, some people are being superstitious, but that's them, we have to respect that and I hope they will still be realistic all the time even if they believe in things to make them lucky.

Plus just have COMMON SENSE. In a time line long enough, if a player keeps playing, he/she can never win against the house which has a mathematical edge vs. him/her. He/she can position himself geographically in accordance to "Fengshui", still it cannot break the laws of mathematics for the player. There are no miracles, and there are no accidents in the physical universe.

[Betwrong]

~ Only, Feng Shui or not, don't bet more than you can afford to lose. Just in case.

We can always be strategic when it comes to gambling and we could also rely on our personal beliefs but we can't expect others to have the same strategy or belief as we do. Fengshui I think won't work especially for those who don't believe in it. It's just a good thing that we have the freedom to rely on our beliefs, culture, and faith in gambling.

Absolutely. In a free world we can do whatever we want for our entertainment as long as it doesn't hurt others. But the thing is that when you, relying on your beliefs, put all your family's money at risk, there's a good probability of someone being hurt. Someone close to you, someone you love. Don't do that.

I know quite a lot about feng shui because my girlfriend loves it pretty much. as for superstitions, I once watched a cool documentary about the fact that thoughts are material and soon transform into events. like a person sets himself up for certain events. of course I don't want to say that it works in poker for example, haha. it's not enough just to want to win a large sum, you also have to play well.

I don't quite agree with you. In gambling, as in real life, there are accidents through which a person can get rich without knowing it, but it does not depend on his religion, faith and his choice since randomness is built into the casino algorithm.

Someone can participate in the lottery his whole life, but did not get a lot, and someone can buy a ticket and get fabulously rich. That is what randomness is all about.

I agree, the house has the edge against every the gamblers who plays in their establishment but that same edge is not a guarantee to the casino that they always win against every gamblers who play and there will be always some of these gamblers who will go home smiling because the won a great amount of money.

If that is truly the case that the mathematical law and the house's edge is unbreakable then I bet there would be no people playing in the casino anymore because they know that they have no chance of winning even a slightest chance.

I certainly agree. No matter how deep your faith is, and how knowledgable you are when it comes to mathematical thoery and algorithms, if you are not lucky in betting, your strategies will not work. Anyone, even those who are not skilled or educated can get rich instantly if they're destined to be lucky.

Expertise and strategy are really needed in gambling so that at least we can have greater confidence compared to those who play blindly gambling, but what you say is true, because luck is the main thing needed in gambling, in my opinion many of the gamblers who try various ways to be able to win the game either by sitting in certain cardinal directions and many even do mystical things just to get lucky in gambling, I think having intelligence does not necessarily win continuously if luck is not on our side.

[jossiel]

Well, someone who has faith and belief just rely on it for the sake of luck.

What you've said is true that it's all about the algorithm and math and statistics that will actually show when you gamble.

Anyone, even those who are not skilled or educated can get rich instantly if they're destined to be lucky.

That's true but this is only for gambling, you'll never know if you're the lucky person and you have to try it for the results to come out.

There's no need for others to know it if they don't know it unless they want to apply it to their lives and try it. There's no need for them to adopt the surroundings IMO and that's how they get used to what they do and as well as get used to the surrounding that they're living with.
It's all about what they used to do and believe and so the others too, that's how they're going to live and deal with the others as well.

Gambling is for entertainment nothingless but people do all sorts of things just for them to prove out something that luck is something that could really be changed or influenced on the time
that they've been playing or even believing that it could really be that altered which we know that this is something impossible.

Just let those people do on what they do believe and think off because sooner or later they would really able to realize the real thing when gambling reality slap into their faces.

We do have different taking and behavior towards gambling so just let other people do on what they do believe.

You don't agree with Mathematical reality of the House Edge? As you have said, they are mere "accidents". In a long enouge time-line, the Math always prevails, and if the edge is consistently against you, you lose.

Someone can participate in the lottery his whole life, but did not get a lot, and someone can buy a ticket and get fabulously rich. That is what randomness is all about.

How many people out of billions have won the lottery if they buy tickets in their whole life? Where is the consistency in beating the lottery? If everyone uses Fengshui, will luck change the Mathematical Probability, and give you an edge over the lottery?

At the very least, they must be able to adapt to their environment before they can adjust to their wishes. If they don't, I'm afraid there will be unwanted friction and it could end up causing something bad for everyone. If they can follow well, I'm sure nothing will happen and everything around them can also get better so that the environment will slowly change into a good situation. We don't want anything bad to happen either, right?

But gambling should not be seen that way, I know it is a game of luck but people should always consider that losing is more possible in gambling than the luck they are talking about.

We do have different taking and behavior towards gambling so just let other people do on what they do believe.

The superstitions have helped some people in the past and some people will use it to gamble until they fail and fail often. I see people that gamble more to not believe in any superstition because as they play often, they will realized that it is not working for them. People should just go on their own beliefs but I prefer strategies than superstitions.

Yes, I agree with you! 

This is the meaning of gambling.  You can get rich even if you do not have a higher education, know nothing about the mathematical theory of probability and do not have a high IQ. 

Luck in gambling is an entity independent of other factors.  Luck just exists.  Some people are lucky in gambling.  They win big sums of money.  That is what fascinates people.  Single combat with fate (luck). 

And that is why many players are superstitious.  That is why the principles of feng shui are often used when organizing a new casino.  Gambling and superstition are very similar concepts.

[rahmad2nd]

Expertise and strategy are really needed in gambling so that at least we can have greater confidence compared to those who play blindly gambling, but what you say is true, because luck is the main thing needed in gambling,

Most gamblers who gamble blindly are those who already have a predisposition to addiction, Excessive activity in gambling affects a person's psychology, so they no longer promote a healthy mindset.
In any gambling game, strategy is important, especially involving experience as a skill in the game to be played.

in my opinion many of the gamblers who try various ways to be able to win the game either by sitting in certain cardinal directions and many even do mystical things just to get lucky in gambling, I think having intelligence does not necessarily win continuously if luck is not on our side.

in fact there are many people who practice things like that, by doing everything possible to get a win or luck in gambling, including people who use mysticism, whether it works or not I never know. I think this kind of behavior is no longer relevant today. The point is luck will always be the main factor in gambling.

I don't see that there will be some effect for others that it will be bad for them. It's just a belief and if anything goes wrong, it's to those that have that belief and they'll just move on afterward.
Whether you don't wish them misfortune or whatnot, there's really nothing you can do with such decisions being applied by them for these beliefs that they've got like feng shui.

It shouldn't be viewed that way but sadly, that's exactly what the most people sees just like the fact that the gambling shall only be seek if a certain person is looking for an entertainment but in reality, people are gambling in chase of instant money that they forget that the odds are not always with them and the chances of losing is inevitable and that is the sad reality about the gambling yet we cannot blame them if they sees gambling as their only way to get rich.

I certainly agree. No matter how deep your faith is, and how knowledgable you are when it comes to mathematical thoery and algorithms, if you are not lucky in betting, your strategies will not work. Anyone, even those who are not skilled or educated can get rich instantly if they're destined to be lucky.

It depends, if you are playing a game of skill like poker then luck while important is not the determining factor but your skill, however poker is one of the few exceptions where this is true.

For most of the games you are right, people will have to rely 100% on their luck and if they do not have it then they will never get any positive results, while those which are fortunate to have it could even become incredibly rich under the right circumstances.

Haha you are very correct in pointing out that the mathematical expectation cannot be changed by Fenshui.

In my opinion, the most correct solution that will benefit the gambler is the study of game theory, mathematical expectation and probability theory. This will really help you to understand what are the chances of winning in this or that game.

Plus just have COMMON SENSE. In a time line long enough, if a player keeps playing, he/she can never win against the house which has a mathematical edge vs. him/her. He/she can position himself geographically in accordance to "Fengshui", still it cannot break the laws of mathematics for the player. There are no miracles, and there are no accidents in the physical universe.

I greatly agree gambling is never been a game of luck where FENG SHUI is deeply connected, it is a game of chance, even the definition tells us what it is.  And with a chance is a mathematical calculation of probability and occurrence.  So basically when we gamble we always have this probability or chance to win and I agree with what Wind_Fury stated, in the long run, due to house edge, we might lose everything if we failed to end our session in the right time.

There's no need for others to know it if they don't know it unless they want to apply it to their lives and try it. There's no need for them to adopt the surroundings IMO and that's how they get used to what they do and as well as get used to the surrounding that they're living with.
It's all about what they used to do and believe and so the others too, that's how they're going to live and deal with the others as well.

At the very least, they must be able to adapt to their environment before they can adjust to their wishes. If they don't, I'm afraid there will be unwanted friction and it could end up causing something bad for everyone. If they can follow well, I'm sure nothing will happen and everything around them can also get better so that the environment will slowly change into a good situation. We don't want anything bad to happen either, right?

I don't see that there will be some effect for others that it will be bad for them. It's just a belief and if anything goes wrong, it's to those that have that belief and they'll just move on afterward.
Whether you don't wish them misfortune or whatnot, there's really nothing you can do with such decisions being applied by them for these beliefs that they've got like feng shui.

I don't want them to be unlucky or bad or anything because they are part of the community that lives around us. So it would be better if we could respect their beliefs and not interfere with each other in their affairs because we don't know exactly what and how. We can let them keep practicing feng shui if they still want to use it because it is everyone's freedom to do what they want.

I echo your sentiment, it is there personal believe and they are the one who will benefits or loss if they continue to believe on such

kind of supernatural, if they lose they will move forward same deal with people who don't believe in it, they will try to win and if they lose

they will just re-try their gambling and see if luck will permits them to win. People who believes in some additional luck kind of rituals

are also people who just wanted to win.

Last year - I went to Singapore and from there - I Brought lucky charms. The shopkeeper said it brings in good fortune and money when hanged with the main entrance. I was so unfortunate after I brought that charms. Last week I threw them away. Did not work for me.
Maybe they are helpful for other.

Not only just wanted to win but also they do really want to prove out that there are strategies that do really work and thats the reason on why they are really keep on doing it until they do win.

If it losses then they would just simply on denial and would continue on doing it and this is really a very common behavior on most gamblers thats why we do really end up on lots of

strategies that we do keep on doing it and really believe that there are things on this world which could really affect your winning rate.

This is evidence that it most of the superstitions people believed aren't true.  The said effect would probably be only a coincidence and may not really have an effect on people.

Well, people won't bother doing stuff like that if they don't intend to win.  As a matter of fact, people who are so eager to do those ceremonies and rituals or even consulting Feng Shui are the one who wanted to win the most since they had taken the extra step to at least help them to have more chance of winning..

The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.

So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.

For honest, I think this is because a lot of wealthy tourists from Asia. In 1930th all casinos has number 4 with not a big problem. And it would still has it, but since there a lot of wealthy chineese guys who want to see Las-Vegas, casinos and hotels started to follow Fengshui.

How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing

No, i do not believe in such things. I believe in math and probability theory, so i can calculate what i need.

[LUCKMCFLY]

As long  you dont hurt others or making yourself hurt or something in between two then i dont see anything wrong with it.People are just too judgemental on what others been doing.

I also don't understand why other people are taking things seriously if someone uses the art of Fengshui in gambling.

After all, these people that use lucky stuff take care of their bankroll. Why other people should bother with that?

Correct. Let's just mind our own business and let these people just do what they want.

The point stated above as long as you don't hurt anyone and you are not hurt is very important and that is something I have been thinking recently.

I have seen people who don't minding hurting people emotionally, mentally or financially and physically and that is something which I have gone through - emotional and financial loss - and I alway think in a free time about what people have done to me.

If Fengshui or any traditional belief helps people succeed in gambling or if it gives them more confidence to enjoy the game, I see nothing wrong with it. We always have the freedom to choose and I guess people who believe in Fenshui find it as an effective strategy to win. We have different beliefs and we could always apply what's effective for us.

I think more of it as a tool to boost our confidence and give us comfort while we're betting/gambling but that is just an if on my side because I don't really believe in these things like Feng Shui or Mantra at all, but I understand and respect people who have a different view and has belief towards Feng Shui as they think it gives them luck or anything like that. As long as they respect mine then they will receive the same treatment from me.

Well that is a very valid point, people should respect beliefs and everything that has to do with similar things, however as you say, it is very true, there are people who are looking for all kinds of amulets, or beliefs, even clinging to images to be able to win in certain things, and this is something that in the end does not harm anyone, I think that each person has their way of doing things, of playing and making decisions and as long as it does not disturb the tranquility of others it is valid everything, at least I see it that way, in my case I don't cling to that kind of things, but if I respect them, sometimes they can move a special type of energy that can be qeu if things turn out for them.

[rodskee]

so far some countries still have traditional local gambling but for feng shui gambling I have not found anymore, now the digital world has developed and more children or teenagers spend their time in front of their computers or smartphones to try to make money with fast.

Maybe feng shui is not used anymore, especially among teenagers or adults, but I think there are still people who still use feng shui and we just don't know it. Maybe in traditional local gambling in countries that still have a culture that uses it because they think that life is governed by it and we must follow these rules, including in playing gambling.

Yes, I think that Feng Shui is not that often used anymore these days because the people these days are so focused in other things together with the advancement of technologies. But in Asia, I think it's still a thing especially for the Chinese people and their neighboring countries.

Feng Shui for me is just a tool to make us confident and feel lucky but it won't be that effective either if we don't work hard for it. Nevertheless, with or without that things, we make our own fate and it's up to us what we want to our lives.

I think Feng Shui is still used in China or at least the Chinese people, whether living in China or other countries. Those who learn the science of Feng Shui still use it for various purposes and there may also be those who use it for gambling.

what i do believe is that Not only in China but in the whole world as we knew that Chinese scattered around the world and if there is chinese then there will be a fengshui believer and follower.

and also there are fengshui experts now that offers their skills for the businessmen and yeah many are subscribing with this.

Although Feng Shui is like a tool to make us confident, we should not rely too much on how we gamble on Feng Sui because if the result is different from what we get from Feng Shui, we will be disappointed.

well that is the reality about this , because Luck is our weapon to win and gambling and if fengshui is not confidently bringing us then there is nothing to be disappointed .

There are symbols and faces attached to things/ game which requires money.
Chines have a stroung believe is superstitiousness and they are very rigid in their dealing - so whatever they do is - they do it with firm belief.

Precisely, they are doing an extra mile to find an edge and to the point that they will use superstitions to win.

There's no question about that. The essence of doing it is to find ways on how to win even it's not being proven, but there are

people who are willing to do it and spend an additional budget for that kind of rituals. We just need to respect and let them do

whatever they've thought that will help them to succeed.

of course we must respect those who perform rituals before or after gambling. they do it all because they think the ritual is able to give good luck when playing gambling and getting a win. well even though it's not necessarily going to get lucky but still we have to appreciate it.
i myself sometimes before starting to gamble do a small ritual hoping luck is on my side

right, we can only respect what they believe instead of insulting it

One of the most entrenched superstitions in the area around me is that people who are under the stairs will be unlucky, so the stairs in almost all buildings here should not be in a place where people usually do their activities because it will bring great misfortune to people, including gamblers

Well, you're quite right about that but that is in the old times because nowadays, not all Chinese people are a believer in Feng Shui nor used it in their daily lives or as a lucky charm. So, I think it's not certain to say that all Chinese folks that have scattered almost throughout the world are Feng Shui believers or a follower.

Personally, I don't really believe in these kinds of things but don't take it wrong because I understand and respect their beliefs about it. It's just that I see Feng Shui more as a business for the Chinese people. Just my thought though.

Fengshui does involved placement of things and i dont know on whats the relevance of this thing when it comes to gambling? Chants and behavioral aspect is different from placement of things but in general
essence it do still share up on the same goal or idea which its true that not all would really be that believer even they are living on the same country or being simply a Chinese but pretty sure that most of them
does share up on the same belief since this is really a part of their culture and i dont see anything wrong if someone do apply these things into their gambling activity.It doesnt matter
as long they arent putting someone to harm then lets just respect on what they are believing.

Well but very few chinese that is not a believer , because I use to work in place where Chinese is the majority and yes almost everyone is either wearing Lucky charm or their house is filled with those luck from Fengshui so maybe at least 70-90% of chinese community are still believer , but for like me that whos not that complete believer yet i respect their belief and culture .

If you compare the Chinese with other nations, you will conclude that they are not more fortunate than other nations. And the only factors influencing good luck may be perseverance and diligence. So Feng Shui is just a belief that helps you find inner peace and nothing more. If someone likes to believe in something, that is their choice.

Fengshui practice is not only involved in the business aspect of Chinese people, almost most Chinese people involve the culture of their ancestors in their daily lives.
not infrequently modern society still adopts these traditions, even for those who already have a religion.

we can even see that there are many fengshui practices applied to buildings or places of business, one example of which is the statue and layout that is the theme of this discussion. maybe the Chinese millennial youth don't really care about this tradition. however, this practice still exists today whether you believe in it or not, it is your personal right.

Not every Chinese really believes in Feng Shui. It's still a personal choice. To some, it just became a part of their tradition and maybe upbringing as well.

I guess everything is about business nowadays. Charms and other things that are believed to bring good luck and abundance are being sold to the market which some people are fond of. It's not really a bad thing as long as they don't scam or utter false promises for the sake of profit. some people just like those kind of things after all because it is aesthetically pleasing and perhaps because they were influenced to. Either way, to each his own.

~ Luck in gambling is an entity independent of other factors.  Luck just exists.  Some people are lucky in gambling.  They win big sums of money.  That is what fascinates people.  Single combat with fate (luck). 

I agree, only it's not like some people can be inherently luckier in gambling than others. We can never say in advance who's more lucky. Only later, after someone won a big amount we say, "Oh, he's a lucky bastard!" Only post factum. And nothing, absolutely nothing, including Feng shui, can change that.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

~ Only, Feng Shui or not, don't bet more than you can afford to lose. Just in case.

We can always be strategic when it comes to gambling and we could also rely on our personal beliefs but we can't expect others to have the same strategy or belief as we do. Fengshui I think won't work especially for those who don't believe in it. It's just a good thing that we have the freedom to rely on our beliefs, culture, and faith in gambling.

Absolutely. In a free world we can do whatever we want for our entertainment as long as it doesn't hurt others. But the thing is that when you, relying on your beliefs, put all your family's money at risk, there's a good probability of someone being hurt. Someone close to you, someone you love. Don't do that.

In addition to this matter, All gamblers who enter a gambling do not want to lose, but most of them want to win big and get the real luck and not the bad luck of playing as a gambler. So this is one of the reasons that other gamblers believe that they hold the Feng-shui of the Chinese people because they have nothing to lose if they hold this kind of superstition and apply it to their gambling habit.

Yes, but research shows that there's only less than one-third of the whole Chinese population who don't believe in Feng Shui at all. So we can still say that it's being practiced and passed down through generations until this very day and in the future, there will be still believers and followers of their culture.

As much as I wanted to know about the roots of these beliefs, I find it hard to understand because of their complexities and other things that is involved in it. It's just amazing for me that these beliefs is still passed down. The only thing that I consider downside of this is that many people around the world are selling Feng Shui stuff that is believed to be lucky for the person who will buy it but they don't even practice Feng Shui themselves and don't know how to explain it further.

Holding Fengshui? what you do mean? Its a belief and not something you could hold unless if you are telling on indirect way then its considerable but its true that Chinese people
do have this kind of belief or something that it is already part of their culture which it is really that normal that they would really be having that kind of actions but i do agree on some
people which had clarified about fenshui which it isnt a behavior but rather placement of things to get or attract positive energy or vibe which if we do really think generally and
apply it on gambling activity then i dont really believe much about relevance but hey its their belief so lets just respect it.
