What if Gamblers had to go to Gambling school to learn?

[LDL]

What if there was a legit gambling school that teach responsible gambling for maximum benefit in nearly every country that have gambling citizens, will it help to make gambling a profitable career or investment for potential new and old time gamblers?

Also, will the study or reading of books on gambling theories and strategies help to brush up one's understanding of how games are won, more than videos and podcasts would?

Going to school or enrolling in a syllabus to learn about gambling or casinos is by no means helpful in pursuing a career in gambling. There is no need to provide any educational qualification or qualification on gambling as there is no sure future to build a career on gambling. No regular income is possible from gambling so no conscious person is interested in building a career on gambling. Gambling does not require any academic education as it is not possible to build a career on gambling.

If that is the only thing we get, then I would say it is a waste of time and money. Why? Perhaps, we can learn freely online. But if the purpose of doing this is to increase our chances of winning, then that would benefit everyone. Unfortunately, gambling had never been such a thing; still, we rely on luck, not on knowledge and skill. 

In a general view of gambling school, only a few gamblers submit themselves to it. In fact, we don't need to know what gambling is but just to understand how it works. We can learn more based on our experience, which I believe is more realistic than what we learn online or from going to a gambling school. 

While you may be correct, do you feel that those gamblers who fall into addiction d not have access to those free online materials to guide them on how stay safe while gambling? I don’t suppose so, they all have access to these online materials but yet still fall prey to the dangers of gambling addiction. But if these things are taught in a school, it’ll become the school’s responsibility to make sure you study, learn and utilize the knowledge you’ve gotten from the institution, and after you’ve been accessed by the school and confirmed to have really understood the dynamics of gambling and how to gamble safely and avoid addiction as much as possible, then you can be issued some sort of degree or certificate, and these certificates serves as a gate pass into the casino. The rate of gambling can be greatly reduced for sure.

However, this is just a suggestion of one of the services a gambling school would offer to its students. If the gambling school can also help to teach its students strategies to maximize their profits, it will also be very helpful to also show them strategies to mitigate the risk of losses too.

The question is if there is really a strategy because I don't think so. And talking about addiction? Wherever you go, if you let your greed and money temptation control you, it will still make you fall into the trap of addiction. Anyone who comes into gambling can possibly turn into like that, only a few can manage.

Despite the suggestion of having a gambling school, I don't think it was necessary for us to go there because, whether we like it or not, this never guarantees assurance to save from losing. We must know that gambling is too risky, and our chances of winning are very slim. You will never think it is profitable, as this is not a money-making machine.

Why op, have you seen a school or heard of something like that that taught something about being responsible for playing gambling? You know, I don't understand the sense of what you are saying to tell you frankly. Just like what you want to emphasize, there should be a school that does that. Is that what you want to convey?

Then no school will implement such a thing in a school; anyone can remind about such a thing, so I think there is no need to do what you say.
and besides gambling does not need to be studied because it is not a skill that can be considered.

First of all, this is merely just a hypothetical scenario, and all the gambling school thing are just assumptions and possible WHAT IF scenarios if there was actually a gambling school or school for gamblers (which we already know there’s none). So let’s assume there’s actually one, wouldn’t that mean that the owners of the school would’ve actually tailored out effective gambling techniques? It’s just like having a trading school or offering some trading courses, before a person can come up with a trading school, it simply means the person already has an effective trading technique students can learn and apply to produce results.
I already know that the real world gambling is a totally different case, and there are no techniques in gambling, i mean that’s why there’s no such thing as a school for gamblers.
I’m simply just assuming there is, just for the purpose of this thread alone and the hypothetical scenario we are discussing.

the concept OP is proposing is not about certifying that one has learned the art of gambling and that he can apply it in a chosen field. It's more about having it in the school curriculum such that people get to learn and know some basics things about gambling right from school since it's now one of the thing we're sure youths normally engage in. For that, I wouldn't say it's wrong to think towards that directed since regardless of your inclusion or removing of it from the schooling  curriculum, people will still gamble. If it's to be included in the school curriculum or thought in school, it's best to just talk more of responsible gambling and guide people into learning the best approach to be adopted so as not to get addicted.

I think it will never help you and casino and slots are always ready to beat us and here you can't use any tricks. They adjust the algorithm according to their will and you will think that you have won while betting but in reality you will lose more. No one will give you a chance to win for sure and in betting you will win many cases but they will outsmart you. Since i want to take the gamble on my own, take it as a game of luck.

[retreat]

I don't think there is any such school, where gamblers learn about gambling to increase their chances of winning. Because there is no specific lesson that can be taught to others to increase their chances of winning in gambling. Especially when gamblers are fighting against the house edge, any knowledge will be useless, unless gamblers find a loophole that they can use to increase their chances of winning, and I think that is a personal research of someone to find bugs in the game they are playing.

[Gheka]

Sure would be awesome to have a school where gamblers can go and obtain extensive knowledge of gambling, probably graduate and earn a degree in gambling, this would really contribute to getting rid of the general misconception of gambling that majority of gamblers already have about about gambling. And if it’s done in a way that only those who graduated from gambling school would be allowed to gamble, this way the rate of inexperienced and naive gamblers would drastically reduce and only those who really understand that dynamics of gambling would be allowed to gambler. The issue of underage gambling would also be tackled as every gambler would offer their proof of graduation before they can be allowed to proceed into the casino.

I am not sure such a school exists because it might be a bad ideology for society, although nowadays, society is moving towards freedom and non-binding but the general rule is still not to spread evil things to destroy the core of society, gambling school from the gambler's perspective is a liberal and a place of knowledge but this society cannot support learning such knowledge, once learned and applied, gamblers only become more heavily involved in this place. If teenagers are willing to acquire knowledge, why not find jobs that society wants, instead of living according to personal interests

It's a good idea but many countries will not buy that opinion of make a gamble school. To my own understanding, going to a school to learn how to win a casino is part of cheating, why because on gamble you have to try your luck and if it doesn't favor you, the only option is for you to quite so that you won't do yourself harm and be emotionally depressed when you lose.
However, you can check on some websites and channels that shares predictions with their users, but those channels won't teach you how to predict. You only need to pick some few predictions and stake with your money, meanwhile many of their predictions are not also sure and those predictions sites/channels uses their predictions to call followers.
If there should be a school where gamblers go and learn how to gamble and win, it won't stay long and the school will be closed because casinos will not allow such schools because the casino is a business for them.

First of all, I’m pretty much aware that there’s nothing like gambling school, we are merely just assuming there is, for the sake of this discussion. And secondly, I disagree with you that the presence or existence of a gambling school would pose any threat to anyone or even the society at large, because the society now have a very wrong perception of gambling which is affecting not just the gamblers but also the entire society, and this is so simply because there are no sources made available to offer proper guidance and orientation to gamblers or those who wish to start gambling. If there were available sources to guide people in the first place, even if people would feel the negative impact and effect of gambling, it wouldn’t be as severe as it already is right now.

This is in fact the benefits gambling schools would offer to the society, as well as to educate the general public on what gambling was initially meant for (if of course there was one), and perhaps this could also change the society’s viewpoint of gambling.

[adaseb]

Well they do have something similar if you go to gambling anonymous. They basically teach you the dangers of gambling and how easy it is to become an addict. In reality there are way more alcoholics than gamblers out there. So there is no point in having a course in high school to teach about the dangers of gambling and how you can become an addict.

I think most become addicts if they gamble early in life and they win big. They get accustomed to all that money at a young age that when they grow older and need more money, they will keep gambling to get more of it. But if it was beginners luck then obviously they won't make large sums of money again and will just go in a deep hole where they get into debt because they had to borrow money to gamble.

The problem is I think there is no career or achievement that we can achieve in gambling anyway, so I think enrolling in a gambling school is completely unnecessary if your goal is to achieve an achievement in gambling but if your goal is to overcome problems caused by gambling such as addiction then I think there is no harm in doing it.

Basically gambling is nothing more than a regular game that does involve money in it, and the problem is that this is a probability activity that depends on luck, meaning of course I think the idea of ​​achieving achievement or a career in gambling will ultimately be a waste of time.

[HelliumZ]

Gambling or casino does not require any educational qualification as it does not depend on any certificate so there is no benefit in going to school or college to get education on gambling or casino. Moreover, there is no fixed formula in gambling betting on which the profit or loss of the bet depends. Moreover, if tricks or methods could be mastered by education, if they were necessary for the pursuit of knowledge, then surely people would seek knowledge for gambling. Since gambling is not dependent on education but on luck, acquiring education is not mandatory.  Participating in gambling events with good faith in luck is the job of a truly wise gambler.

            -      To give a reminder to anyone, especially to children or students, many people do that, and it often even starts with our parents and other people who know that gambling does nothing good, especially minors, which is also true. indeed.

So, the previous ones who posted here in this section are correct regarding what OP is asking about gambling. Maybe that won't be the focus because the majority of people around the world know what gambling can do to anyone who tries it.

True. gambling based on luck has RNG for the result.  Knowing how gambling works won't help us to make our percentage of winning to go up because the result is randomly generated.  If we want to have more chance of winning, there is nothing more to do but to bet more.

Attending school can tell us the basic of gambling and the advance of how gambling works, this will enable us to know that more likely we will lose in the long run if we make our session longer than it should be.  Instead of learning how gambling works, I think it is best to teach how gambling addiction works, how it starts and how to avoid it.  And if have the signs, how to nullifies this signs of addiction to ultimately avoid gambling addiction.  I believe that is better than learning how to win more in gambling because the concept does not exist or is always got patched up by the gambling game provide.

If the outcome of gambling depended on the level of education of gamblers, then I am afraid most casinos would not exist today, as there are equally people who does not understand the laws of chances and yet choose to gamble as a hobby; on the other hand, there are people who are highly educated and went to college (understand the chances of scoring big in gambling are minimal) and yet continue to partake on it.
In general there is this rule of thumb about casinos and betting shops establishing themselves in relatively low-income neighborhoods, because it is easier for someone who is tight on money to hold onto the hope of winning big in the lottery or on a good luck spree at the casino, because they are also unaware how laws of chances actually work and may not realize how tiny their winning chances are.
If in the very same neighborhood there were educated people who knew math, then a percentage of them would choose not to risk their money at all.

No matter how skilled a gambler is, he can never be sure whether he will win or not. Due to which there is no benefit from such gambling related educational institutions. Moreover, gambling is considered negative perspective in every society, so even if someone wants to teach gamblers about gambling with such an initiative, it will not be accepted very well by the people of the society. Regardless of how difficult it is to implement, it would be considered appropriate to follow the strategy if gamblers were taught to gamble in other ways. Many countries in the world have not yet legalized gambling, which is why it is certainly not logical to think of creating a gambling school.

What kind of knowledge is extensive gambling knowledge? What kind of degree in gambling will they give you? I really don't understand what you are trying to say. Are you a gambler? And to become a gambler, do you need to undergo any courses and get trained at any center?

Gambling is a game based on luck, not based on any knowledge and there is no knowledge to learn. The only thing a gambler needs to learn is to learn to control his emotions, control his greed and you can do it yourself as long as you are determined. If you don't have determination, no one can teach or impart it to you.

Many countries or casinos require players to be 18 years or older to gamble, but does that prevent under 18s from participating? No degree or certificate can reduce the rate of gambling.

[Miles2006]

Gambling as a profitable career or investment is impossible due to the nature of gambling, if gambling should be referred as an investment then the people in charge in the gambling sector like the organization will not make any profit. When people get a full knowledge about something you see them progressing likewise gambling, the only reason why people refuse to gamble responsible is because they see gambling as a source of income so in this manner how can one totally learn.

Also, will the study or reading of books on gambling theories and strategies help to brush up one's understanding of how games are won, more than videos and podcasts would?

On a serious note, if gambling education gets more attention like this almost everyone will gamble definitely, if knowing what to do when facing loss just by reading it’s more better compared to videos and podcasts because non of those educative video are real. People claim to educate others on an idea they’re not knowledgeable maybe they see everyone doing same, aside gambling I’m speaking out of experience because most of the videos we watch about gambling lose and win are not worth our attention.

What's  actually your aim and purpose of desiring a gambling school?? You wanna ruin someone's business, converting everything to your own self? Do you think if everyone has the exact source code for the algorithm in any casino, that they would survive a single night? They'll quickly send signals and shutdown for as long as those codes are replaced....Well, if only this was possible, I would have rated how greedy you can be.

Also, will the study or reading of books on gambling theories and strategies help to brush up one's understanding of how games are won, more than videos and podcasts would?

Can it enlighten anyone on how to be more resourceful and less extravagant, yes... Does it help anyone to maneuver, No! I dunno how y'all just think casino owners are out to give free money to anyone that shows up.
