What I've learned so far as a gambler

[AicecreaME]

Can luck not play a bigger part in sports betting than we realize, even when analysis and information rule? Doesn't sports' unpredictability (weather, player psychology, unforeseen events)make even the best wager a gamble? We often overestimate our capacity to forecast outcomes, attributing success to talent and failure to luck. This cognitive bias can make us think we have more control than we do

However, isnt understanding when to stop the key to gambling, whether it's sports betting or slots? Human psychology is fascinatingly complex. The assumption that luck must shift or that one is due for a win keeps betting going. Isn't this psychological trap the true enemy, not gambling type? Cant self-awareness and control be the ultimate weapon in this conflict, more useful than sports or slot algorithms?

Although it isn't easy to explain this as a percentage, I think that analysis and knowledge have a greater share in sports betting than luck but as you mentioned the unpredictability of sports and some related conditions can turn even the best wager into gambling. For example, in the last match between Galatasaray and Bayern Munich, the odds for the over 0.5 were 1.001 before the match started and it was certain that there would be at least one goal in this match. Although the result was correct, the first goal came in the eightieth minute proving that a result that seemed guaranteed was actually a gamble.

On the other hand, to make a comment especially according to many gamblers, it is impossible to deny that everyone generally considers winning as success but losing as bad luck. In addition to the complexity of human psychology, the fact that people act in a profit-oriented manner when gambling is unfortunately a situation that many people cannot control. Unfortunately, thinking that it is a lucky day when one wins repeatedly or continuing to gamble to regain the lost amount in case of consecutive losses is an emotion that many people cannot control.

Indeed. There are many factors affecting the outcome of a play. For instance, in sportsbetting, it's mostly reliant to skills and knowledge. It's essential that you are updated with the current happenings about the player and the team itself in general. Having a background knowledge about the team record will be beneficial as well to know which has the higher odds of winning based on their track records. Although yes, luck still does play a part in sportsbetting because at the last minute, tables can turn. So it's important to at least consider shocking turns happening the last part or when you least expect it. But of course, still base most of your assessment on your knowledge and information at hand. 

I guess it will just know depends on the perspective whether it's a lucky or bad day. After all, it varies. If you want to make profit, losing is really terrible. But you can always do better next time around. Just remember to not be too greedy.

Specific games would be having that specific factors on which it could affect out winning results, if we do speak about to those luck based games then this is something that
we cant really be able to tell since everything is random but if we do speak about sports betting then factors known will really be giving out that kind of effect.
Speaking about gambling learning in terms of behavior and other similar aspects then it would be entirely be depending since not all would really be that too
mindful about gambling effects.

Usually people would be able to learn up something on the time that they are experiencing bad things, but before those things to happen then they wont really be showing
any care or totally that too careless on making decisions and actions just because you do let greed and emotions do control you.
This is why we should really be that careful.

If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed. 

If you become able to double your money as a result of a single bet then I think you are a lucky person now if you want to continue gambling just because of wishing to win more like this then its a greed which will destroy your 400$ and your hands will be empty with zero dollar.

 In gambling a person must face a huge loss that cause him to regret always for not taking the previous profit. At last a person wish to get huge profit at once so he will stop gambling but unfortunately it become very difficult. I don't think that why people are more interested in gambling even they can see other individuals with their own eyes that how they make their life difficult.

Basically gambling also does have a random system, which will not fully guarantee victory. And there are also many factors that can be done to avoid the risk of loss, because the chances of winning are smaller than the chances of losing, that's a fact. It is true that you say not all people who gamble pay attention to the effects of gambling, which is where the losses that have been experienced also sometimes they just let it go without thinking about it so they just keep gambling and gambling.
Most of them also can't fight the greed that controls them so they only focus on chasing wins, while they have experienced many losses that are detrimental to themselves. Not being able to control themselves, their ego, and emotions can make them fall deeper into gambling that will harm them.

What I have learned from gambling is that you should never be in a hurry. Take your time. Enjoy process or take it serious as a job and dont rush to win everything. A person must understand, that he perhaps isnt such a prodigy to be able to bankrupt a casino. After all its them and system against single you. A rush to place a bet, a rush to double or win a lot and in short period of time always leads to trouble. Going all-in every single bet to double the bank is a lose strategy.

If you are already happy and you think you already profited, then you can go home instead of being so greedy to chase thousands of winning. It's better to go home with a not so high profit than nothing at all.

It is true, to have a little win is better than being greedy and losing everything. Gamblers need to learn how not to be greedy and to walk away when in some profit because in gambling there is no way you can stop your losses when it comes so the best is to take the advantage of a profitable day or bet so that the tempted to continue playing will not arise. The temptation to continue playing is always there when you see you have a profitable bankroll, so we need to be cautious against losing the profit we have. Giving to greed is such a problem for gamblers.

It all boils down to one's patience, self-control, and the ability to control the emotions so that they don't give up easily against the urge to gamble more when they have already earned some profits without losing anything from their initial bankroll. However, the majority of gamblers lack these things, and even if they try very hard, they will eventually give up against the urge and become greedy, which results in them gambling with the profits won and the initial bankroll and eventually losing it all or most of it.

I don't blame anyone, because I've been in that position and I know that it's hard to control yourself when you see that you have your bankroll completely untouched and have some money on top of it, and then your mind keeps telling you that you can make that amount increase if you try a bit more, then you decide to place just a limited amount of bets and when you start doing that, that limit never reaches until you lose everything.

In very rare cases, a gambler manages to win more after getting greedy, but mind what I said, such cases are very rare, maybe 2% out of 100% manage to get that much lucky.

It's a very wrong mindset for anyone to believe they can double their betting just like that and with a mind of certainty. This is possible but it's a matter of chance and not the certainty clause. I've had my good and bad experiences with gambling and I know for sure that it's not what anyone can be sure of no matter how favourite that game is to them or how good they are at playing it. I've done this quite many times with sports betting where I use a huge amount of money to bet in order to double my money, but in those cases, I never have that 100% assurance in my games and I plan my games very well. I also would have had at least $1000 in my betting account and divides it into 5 different parts before I could take such a risk. However, it's often nice if you are betting such risk on sports like football matches with odds that are more than 2.0.

This could fetch you that amount easily if you are right with the prediction, nonetheless, I will never be a party to having just $200 in my account and still bet it at once on a game. That's not wise enough.

There are so many things one can point out as lessons over the years now that I've gambled.Gambling is one habbit that is not healthy for any human,and anybody that has engaged in gambling,must know that gambling is risky,and must be followed wisely because if all your mind and finance is invested into it,it will definitely affect you because you are going to lose.Losing in gambling is something that happens regularly, therefore,one must know that and get his or her mind off the money you have spent on gambling.
I have learnt to be patient while gambling,I have also learnt to stake with little amount because their is no sure game in gambling,any game can cut nomatter the team playing.

Gambling is indeed an unhealthy habit, especially the health of our money . we have to be able to enjoy gambling well, don't have too much ambition to win big or try to fool the casino because it's impossible that you will never be able to beat the machine. Even though the casino is a game of chance but In fact, more people experience losses than profits. We shouldn't get too caught up in gambling because it will put you on the edge of a cliff. If you progress further, you will be on the verge of ruin.
The aim of gambling is not to make a profit, but the casino owner gets the profit, so it is better for us to use gambling for entertainment purposes, but if you are lucky, you might get a win, but remember that gambling wins do not happen continuously, you have to be satisfied with whatever the result is and stop immediately if you win.

Maybe they know about the risks of gambling, but most of them still play it, maybe because the desire to win has covered their common sense so they don't think about the big risks they will feel if they gamble excessively. The few people who gamble wisely, they can still think of other things that are more important than gambling so they can still limit the budget for gambling, by using bonus money from work for example. Unlike those who gamble irresponsibly, they forget about many things that are more important and must be their responsibility because the mindset has changed by only thinking about gambling which makes them only think about gambling and ignore other things that are more important than gambling.

In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you're going to want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of what you're doing and how you're doing it. So however gambling has a big chance of losing not winning.

Casino games especially slot games have to be played against a machine which is why you can't always win from here. And you can't easily predict when the machine will win you if you don't have long experience. And if you have long experience playing slod games then you have some idea that the machine can win you sometimes. Bet some big amount at that time and you can win big from there. And since slot games can win huge amounts with small bets, you can win very little from here.

[bakasabo]

Interesting thing came to my mind - acceptance of defeat. If we convert it to gambling, it will be acceptance of a loss. This is the thing every gambler should learn. The understanding that it is enough of gambling for to day. Understanding not "to chase losses". Gamblers has to admin that they have lost today, and return tomorrow with a cold head. That is the most difficult thing to learn, as human are very competitive, they dont like to lose anywhere and to anyone.

If you bet a large amount, you must realize that the risk of losing will also be large, so you must be able to accept it if you lose. Many people cannot accept their losses and try to recover from their losses, which is actually normal, but what makes it unnatural is if they forget when to stop gambling and take their losses with them. He must be able to accept his loss and will not try to recover from his loss rather than accept more defeat. Becoming a gambler makes us learn about many things in gambling, not only about winning and losing but also about self-control, discipline, and others. If we cannot learn from what we experience or from other people's experiences, we will lose a lot, not only money but also time.

In my very personal case, I have learned that in most cases you must be patient, it is something that still costs me, but what matters in reality before having patience in a game and calmness, is to be careful not to waste all the money, the fact of knowing how to allocate money to the game is something that I learned and it has helped me for almost everything in life, not only in the game but to successfully manage any event in my life, that is one of the things that the The game also teaches one to think much more quickly when there are difficult situations, to make the right decisions and to see what can happen if I decide this or that, that is what the game has taught me, it has also taught me that not I must believe that I must gain my ability to play better from one day to the next, which is from several gaming sessions that teach us certain things, and that is what we should do.

Some will say, control your emotions, because that is something that is very difficult, the impulse above all and the possession of hope when we are in a very bad streak, I learned in the casino that when there are those signs of hope that goes away Winning when you are losing is what you should never do, learn that when there is a winning streak and after having terrible gains the moment you lose, I should retire and not insist that I should recover or do more, no, because everyone who does it, all of that goes away and can go further, because the person who falls into that trap always loses, and it is obvious, as I have said in other threads, the house advantage will always manifest itself, and no one player can make the house fall, a player cannot be above the house advantage, no matter how good he is, that is something that must be learned, also when he loses, he must suffer the loss, not play until another day, because this is the only way you can avoid losing more, and in each bet the money you lose is because it had to be that way.

Indeed. There are many factors affecting the outcome of a play. For instance, in sportsbetting, it's mostly reliant to skills and knowledge. It's essential that you are updated with the current happenings about the player and the team itself in general. Having a background knowledge about the team record will be beneficial as well to know which has the higher odds of winning based on their track records. Although yes, luck still does play a part in sportsbetting because at the last minute, tables can turn. So it's important to at least consider shocking turns happening the last part or when you least expect it. But of course, still base most of your assessment on your knowledge and information at hand. 

I guess it will just know depends on the perspective whether it's a lucky or bad day. After all, it varies. If you want to make profit, losing is really terrible. But you can always do better next time around. Just remember to not be too greedy.

We definitely agree that there are many different factors that come into play depending on the type of game preferred. No matter which game type is chosen, the only thing they all have in common is "luck" in the truest sense of the word. For example, as you mentioned analyzing various information is a very important factor for sports betting but the luck factor always has an effect in sports betting. A possible last minute changes, a surprise situation and many other factors are triggered by the luck factor. In other words, a bet that is thought to be perfect may be affected by this luck factor even if it is low and may result in a result opposite to expectations.

In summary, regardless of the preferred gambling method luck is a common factor for all but each method also has different factors within itself.

One example that proves how important luck is is when people decide to bet on the huge favorites only, but we all know how often it happens that just one favorite will mess it up. You could take some games from the last Champions League round or also in the leagues when everyone thinks that betting on the favorites in a parlay bet will get you some safe winnings, but no one team or player is going to wreck the bet. It could be a multitude of reasons, but in most cases the odds are well calculated and in favor of the casino, not the player.

If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed. 

If you become able to double your money as a result of a single bet then I think you are a lucky person now if you want to continue gambling just because of wishing to win more like this then its a greed which will destroy your 400$ and your hands will be empty with zero dollar.

 In gambling a person must face a huge loss that cause him to regret always for not taking the previous profit. At last a person wish to get huge profit at once so he will stop gambling but unfortunately it become very difficult. I don't think that why people are more interested in gambling even they can see other individuals with their own eyes that how they make their life difficult.

If you win once a day in gambling and it's a good amount, that's fine because you're really lucky to be called. But if you keep going because you think you'll be able to bring home a large amount of money, I think you're becoming greedy without realizing it.

When you think like that, that means that what you won will surely be lost little by little until eventually you will notice that you have lost a large amount because of a decision that, instead of stopping, you continued to play to gamble.

When you do really make some winnings then you would eventually be forgetting all the losses that you do have earlier and this is really something a very common thing or behavior of a gambler.
You wouldn't really be making out some learnings until you would really be able to experience those hard moments or situations in life on which it is really that something that pertains about
those having struggles when it comes to finances on which it would really be just that so normal that people will continue as long they do able to play since they do still have
the money that they could be able to do so, but on the time that they have none? For sure they would really be having that kind of realization in the end.

[Makus]

I agree with you, when you've made some wins, maybe up to 100% depending on the amount you took to the gambling casino, be it online or a physical shop, you should be able to be contented with the win, casino was not created to make you rich overnight. But if you insist in playing more, you might end up emptying your account just to try recovering from the loss, and this greed is one of the major problem most gamblers have. I have seen cases where people even go as far as using their mobile phones to make a stake after emptying their accounts. This is the more reason we were told to gamble responsibly.

True that, I already experienced this kind of situation multiple times that is why I have a limiter now that if I am able to win at least twice my bankroll, I  have to stop and withdraw the amount and play again next time.

Greed makes it difficult to stop even if a gambler wanted to stop and pocket the winnings.  HIs thought is saying he has to stop but somewhere on the back of his mind there is an  urge to just some more tries maybe the next set of spin will give him another good win., until his situation becomes chasing his losses.
