Gambling is really unexpected

[Kelvinid]

It is truly unexpected in the sense that we can't expect to become lucky and win a huge amount from the minimum stake we made.

But there is one thing I notice when I gamble --when I am going to think about winning, I only just lose but if I'd never expect it, I win. I'm not sure if this also happened to you OP or others but it usually happens to me. It usually happens to us if we gamble huge money, the more we think about winning (and the result is the opposite) but if we just gamble a small amount, we don't think about it, fortunately, this is mostly the time we win.

Congrats, OP! It's true that winning in gambling often happens unexpectedly because gambling revolves around luck. When luck is on someone's side, winning in gambling can seem like pure magic. This is why it's crucial to only gamble with what we can afford to lose. Your story reminded me of a friend who won a large sum of money on their first attempt at gambling.Despite being involved in gambling for many years myself, I hadn't experienced such luck. Their win was so surprising because his predictions seemed random and unpredictable. Many people, including myself, doubted it  chances of winning. However, against all odds, they emerged victorious. Since witnessing it winning, I've come to fully believe that gambling truly hinges on luck.

I was able to buy my dream guitar worth $200, of course, I added a few bucks to buy it. I stopped playing and withdrew the money, I don't want to continue to bet the amount of money I've won.
mation about my story.

I don't wanna dig deep into your story to know if you've been doing this for a long time now, but all I can say is that -- there's a huge possibility of having you back on gambling sites, just to keep hitting on your lucks.
Alot of people have this big problem of going back to their habits, no matter how hard it was for them to let it go. That happens when they still clog around the casinos for an update on their bankrolls; it'll inturn, create a fake path for them to easily fall back!

When I lose in a bet, I always try not to express any feelings, because even if I lose in one or another bet, I will still be in profit, because when I manage to get a bet right, the gain is very high, so it ends up making up for it a lot when I lose to someone. bet, this is to say that when we play anything can happen and we always need to be prepared to see a defeat or a victory and whenever we lose we have to be very quick to accept the defeat, because when we lose we keep thinking about that defeat , we no longer focus on doing other things in the real world, we start thinking about how to recover that money we lost and we start playing with this thought of recovering losses and losing again and this increases the person's frustration.

That's why when I win a lot at the casino, I immediately withdraw more than 90% of my winnings and spend it in the real world, so even when I lose a little and have a losing streak, it doesn't affect me psychologically, it doesn't make me sad. losses, because I always remember the good things I do with the money I win from a bet, I'm talking about my case because as you said you bought a guitar with the money you won, so it reminded me that I've been doing this, even days ago I made great profits and was able to take them out into the real world and use them on things that I really like. This way I keep good memories of gambling. even when I'm losing

I think something like this will be felt by all gamblers. I also experienced exactly the same thing as you said, when I hoped to win, I would experience defeat quickly. However, when I played casually, I actually got a big win with the minimum bet that I bet. This is not just once, but keeps repeating itself. I had a crazy idea to keep winning, yes I pretended not to expect anything, but the result was still losing. Lol

This is something that is beyond our control, because it depends entirely on luck. No one can predict when victory will come, and no one can predict when defeat will come. Therefore, if you do not intend to leave gambling, always use money that is safe for us to lose. I won't get bored of saying the same thing, because I think if a word is always said over and over again it will become a pattern in our minds. I think that's good because it kind of instills us in always being within limits.

There are no other words than I will congratulate you for getting that big win, on the other hand I like your way of thinking here where you prioritize prevention over greed by being able to realize that this is a win that means it comes when you are lucky enough to be able to buy your dream item such as the guitar referred to above. I think this kind of action is not easy for most gamblers to do, because usually when they manage to get the first win then they will continue to play with the intention of getting a bigger amount and also to cover the amount of defeat in the previous few sessions.

Typical gamblers like that will usually always end the session with a loss even though they initially managed to get a win, because they always feel dissatisfied with the amount they managed to get so greed is one of the first actions they will take which will actually make them end up losing all the previous winning amounts, but here you are different because you are able to maintain awareness and understanding that gambling does not always produce wins so you prefer to cash out and enjoy the results of the winnings, that's good and I hope you can maintain this mindset friend.

Winning and losing are part of the game, so they shouldn't have much of an impact on the gambler. If a gambler has a mindset like this, then I can truly say they never experience financial and other problems even if they lose. Sometimes winnings come because of luck and not because of our own ability to make analysis, that's part of the fun of gambling. But someone who gambles for money will be completely under pressure regardless of whether they can win the bet or lose.

I also had the same experience as you, sure of winning but instead losing. However, luck is what gamblers need to win bets, regardless of the type of game, whether luck-based or skill-based.

[Onyeeze]

Is very obvious that gambling is unexpected game, so therefore I believe that gambling is something you can say, that you win it just like that unaware whereas when you plan gambling you will end up losing it, that is why I continued to say that gambling is unpredictable and whatever you are doing concerning gambling you have to be careful and know that gambling is a game of luck and you don't need to use your savings to gamble knowing that it has to do with grace and opportunity so therefore we should understand anyone that win gambling today will not win tomorrow if the person think that its on it predictions

You are practicing the same reason why the casino gave you a win, gamble more. Unique results awaits every gambler. And nobody detects, exactly, when the wins will arrive. What is crucial is staying careful. Don't get carried away by the few wins you've seen on a fresh casino. It may not remain that way all through your gambling duration there. However, it's good you won in gambling. Atleast instead of quiting the game, you've seen a reason to continue gambling. Some naive gamblers think the game isn't for them if they don't win at some point when gambling. Such experiences scares people away from gambling. But, once a player begins to win, he'd stick around and enjoy the game.

Greed is a bad gambling factor for any gambler. While enjoying the game, expect to win, don't chase it. Gradually gamblers win and lose money, too. Hence, your experience is acknowledged as a good practical, and should teach you the ways gambling works. Switching from one casino to another is not bad. House edge may vary. But, the system operates simultanously like any other casino. The difference is that the results can be scattered, wins arrive early or losses comes first. Take your brother's wins for instance. He could try on another casino and wouldn't win. So, don't relent, stay accurate in your strategies. Good luck!

[Stepstowealth]

Due to these winnings, I might stay playing on this website a little longer. I feel like my luck hasn't run out yet.

I am thinking of something that is not impossible for casinos to do.
Some casinos may have made it a strategy to make winning easier for new sign ups to their casino as a way to encourage them to stay gambling with them because of the first good impression they have had in the casino. It is a strategy that really works because if I play for the first time on a casino and then win, why would I want to go to another casino? I would even want to keep gambling there.

I plan to take a break again from gambling, but a few days ago, I saw an opening slot for this online casino campaign, BC Game which was a campaign being promoted on this forum. To apply you have to have an ID number on their website. Since it is required, I created an account. I think to myself that since I already have an account, why not try playing to kill some time?

This is exactly what they want you to do. They make you get an account and often deposit wins to that account so you're more incentivized to try your luck. They're luring you in. IMO this is a bit shady of the casino. I've never liked to promote casinos that did it and I don't think I ever did.

That said, congratulations on your win and withdrawal. I'm happy that you spent the money instead of gambling with it over and over. You're a realist, which is healthy in this industry. I also hope the story is true and not a way to promote the casino

You have my word that what I posted in OP was real  I even plan to post the guitar I ordered which was pre-ordered and expected to be delivered within 30 days. I don't intend to promote the casino in that way, it is my own story to share with anyone that every winnings we have should not be used to spend again on gambling. Let us make ourselves experience the taste of our winnings.

[chaser15]

A normal thing to happen especially to those casual gamblers.

Since you think that your luck hasn't finally run out, I suggest just continuing playing while staying responsible at all times.

But remember, don't be carried away. That's the start of continuous involvement in gambling once you lose it all. Since you already experienced winning decently, you might want to repeat that experience without realizing you are already falling into addiction.

[dothebeats]

That's a great guitar. I have that, too  

Winning in gambling is really unexpected for the most part. Most of the time, we just prepare ourselves to lose since it's mostly the outcome of this activity. It's in when we don't really expect to win anything do we get the wins, and to me that's better rather than anticipating in something that will not come. I also stake low amounts sometimes, and hope for the best but was rarely met by success.

I know this win is a big one considering how much you staked. Then again, hopefully you don't get consumed by this huge win and pursue more wins because that might just be your end.

Wise gamblers know how to manage expectations and understand the dynamics of the game. Indeed, greed can cloud judgment and lead to reckless behavior, ultimately undermining the chances of success. It's normal to expect winnings while enjoying the game, that is a balanced mindset that allows for enjoyment without succumbing to the pressure of chasing elusive wins. Gamblers have to realize that both wins and losses are part of the gambling experience. This enables gamblers to maintain perspective and learn from their experiences.

Exploring different casinos and being mindful of variations in house edge is a sensible strategy. The fundamental principles of gambling remain consistent across different establishments, but slight variations in rules and odds may impact outcomes. Adapting to these differences and staying true to effective strategies can enhance the chances of success. Luck plays a significant role, maintaining accuracy in strategies and staying disciplined can help mitigate the impact of fluctuations in luck.

Of course a percentage of gamblers will come away from the casino having a positive profit balance. Of course it's going to be unpredictable. Because it's random
That's kind of the point though. You can't know in advance if you'll be a loser. But it's also a statistical impossibility for the majority to be winners in the long run.

That's also something to be wary of though. Because expecting to win can kind of lead many people to actual extravagant losses. So good on OP for winning a decent chunk of money but dunno how noteworthy that is really. a 10x happens around 1/10 times. Probably though not many people get to keep these profits and nevertheless it's not realistic to expect this to happen on the full balance of one's deposit.

[serjent05]

@OP it was already established that luck type gambling games result is random and is dependent on RNG.  I think you got some starters luck when you registered on the stated gambling platform.  And it is not a surprise since this kind of experience often happens.

It also happened to me when I first registered on the gambling platforms I frequently play. 

A normal thing to happen especially to those casual gamblers.

Since you think that your luck hasn't finally run out, I suggest just continuing playing while staying responsible at all times.

But remember, don't be carried away. That's the start of continuous involvement in gambling once you lose it all. Since you already experienced winning decently, you might want to repeat that experience without realizing you are already falling into addiction.

True that, exercise responsible gambling especially when we are winning. This way we can preserve our winnings and be able to withdraw and enjoy it.  Since winnings in gambling make us get hooked on the gambling games, we must be vigilant and always have self-awareness if we are getting hooked on gambling.

It is a good thing that @OP can stop and withdraw his winnings, I hope he won't get hooked on the game due to winning experience.  Many gamblers due to experiencing good winnings often comes back again and again without realizing that they had been losing due to chasing the same winnings experience they had experienced.

probably because when you are not expecting thing you make decision with good and sound mind, but its kinda true though im also sometime baffled when we don't expect to win, in the most generic betting game there is, we sometime win, its just really strange how it works, its almost as if things coming at us if we don't think about it but the more we think about it the more we stray away from our luck.
somehow i guess thats how universe works there's always that little string that entangle to each other I guess thats luck.
its the same thing with football game sometime i just don't expect this team to win but i just put some bet because there's some odds of winning anyway then suddenly the team winning and I got quiet the profit.
I guess universe is strange.

Guess what, I was able to play card games where normally a game with a high minimum amount to stake. On this website, specifically Blackjack the minimum amount to bet is 1.00 Php or $0.02. Because of that low minimum amount to bet, I was able to play it and I unexpectedly won by multiplying my deposited money up to 10x even after losing so much in the past month. I was able to buy my dream guitar worth $200, of course, I added a few bucks to buy it. I stopped playing and withdrew the money, I don't want to continue to bet the amount of money I've won.

That's right, gambling really has unexpected results, especially when we play with just the luck factor (unlike sports betting).
The difference really lies in knowing how to manage your losses so that they do not negatively affect your financial life.
And in the same way, knowing how to act wisely when luck beckons you, in this case you have fulfilled a dream and even reinvested in games believing that you might have more luck.
Many people are greedy, multiplying their bets after a win and consequently losing everything again.

Congratulations on your victory and the way you achieved it.

OP, although your story is published today, it is already on page 4, so, it is everyone's story.
Man, what you should understand is not that you won or lost, yeah! that is not what is relevant here, the important thing is that by adjusting the size bet, You got positive results.

[irhact]

This is why I always take my leave when I win, it's not that I don't have the balls to continue gambling, but I know that casinos are more favourable compare gamblers, that's why I cherish every wins against the casino.

The casino has more advantages than you as they're the ones setting the odds, they can cheat you and make you to lose without you knowing therefore when you win against them, you have to cherish that moment and it's also better you stop playing for that time and try to gambling again later. When you continue gambling, you !might get too confident with yourself and begin to take more risk that can potentially make you to lose more than you have won as you didn't stop gambling.

Congratulations OP, when there are stories of gamblers winning it give other hip that they took can win. What I noticed is that you don't gamble irresponsibly, you're using small wagers that is she best way to gamble as it gives you more chances to gamble more times and on many games with a small capital than those that use high wagers and losses all as they're gambling more than they can afford to lose.
