Unexpected wins vs expected wins, which excites the most?

[Samlucky O]

I don't know about any other person but personally, I've come to discover that winnings that are unexpected excites the most than the winnings that are expected, regardless of the amount of money involved.

That's true though, there is an excitement attached to an amount won unexpectedly. I could remember some time ago I played many games hoping to win but couldn't win a single bet I decided to stake multiple games with several prediction and relaxes and said to myself that if it happens to play "so be it" and if it doesn't as well "so be it" too. I was surprised to see 2 tickets won at ago and I was excited. So definitely there is excitement in unexpected win.

But by the way, it is not advisable to put our hope on a  predicated running game, because If it happens not to play, such person may feel disappointed. It is better we always stake and remove our mind on it sothat when there is an unexpected win we become exited instead of becoming exited earlier and angry when lost later run.

This is why I've come to this conclusion that winnings that are unexpected are more exciting than winning that have been predetermined/expected.

maybe that's also what makes casino games more fun than sports betting where we actually expect to win from the predictions we make. but in casino games that rely on luck, there is hope to win but its arrival is really unexpected and always a surprise.

but I think all of this applies to the opposite. losing a bet that we expect to win will definitely make a bigger disappointment than losing a game of luck. you must have bet quite high with small Odds. because we are too confident with our predictions we bet quite big but when we lose, it leaves a distrust of the betting results.

Yes, that is your personal conclusion regarding the two winning scenarios that you obtained. But for other users, it may never be the same. An unexpected win is certainly exciting, but an expected win is much more exciting. The reason I'm clear about that is because basically you first do an analysis of a match before betting money, then how can you not feel excited when your analysis is correct and the win you hope for is really real.

So I can also draw a conclusion personally, an expected win is much more exciting than an unexpected win. That can make you more enthusiastic about analyzing other matches in the hope of winning them too.

Of course, because an unexpected victory is kind of surprise and can give us sense of joy or enthusiasm for the achievement, moreover with victory that we never expected before, it can also increase our confidence that at that time got luck.
It different when we can win with analysis and prediction preparation that has been made well, in conditions like this we have gained confidence and also belief to succeed in achieving victory so that if we really win then we don't get kind of surprise.
But one other thing I will say is that unexpected victories like that are very rare to get, for example in game luck it is clear that the chances cannot be seen for sure, I myself if I get victory like you get from the plinko game will definitely feel the same as you.

I'd prefer both but if limited to the two, naturally the unexpected one. But it's more of a losing match getting turned around compared to betting an underdog type of thing. It has happened to me before, similar odds between the two so the match could go either way, but the start my team started getting destroyed. Middle of the game comes around and they suddenly stage a comeback. Now those types of wins are just thrilling as hell since the game itself is an intense back-and-forth.

As for casino games, I play them so much that it doesn't faze me that much when I get an unexpected win lol. Maybe every now and then with a big bet with big odds, but usually I just go high odds and spam it with low bets.

I don't know about any other person but personally, I've come to discover that winnings that are unexpected excites the most than the winnings that are expected, regardless of the amount of money involved.

Recently, I placed a bet on sports match, and somehow, I was very certain I was going to win it, the match started and at the end, I won my bet, odd was 1.4, not going to mention the amount I used for bet, but I won a good sum, i wasn't all that excited because it's a winning I had expected, in fact, I would have been more surprised if I hadn't won.

Then I remembered that some time ago, I was playing plinko with a random balance that was remaining on my account, I wasn't expecting any winnings, I just wanted to have fun and empty my balance, I set the risk level to "high" and was betting $0.1 on each ball that came down, I can't tell how many rounds I've played but soon enough, my account balance that was below $5 was already $40+, this money was not near the amount i won from sports betting but I was overly excited, possibly because I never really expected to win this much.

This is why I've come to this conclusion that winnings that are unexpected are more exciting than winning that have been predetermined/expected.

Feel free to comment your thoughts on this, or perhaps you have an experience to share, please feel free.

I think that the majority of gamblers in the casino expect to win a large amount of money from their gambling, even though other gamblers whose main purpose is just fun feel the expectation that they will win.

But there are still people who expect that they will lose, or there is no certainty that they will win a large amount of money when they play gambling.

I agree with you completely. Success, in isolation, but from unexpected quarters, is indeed an exhilarating experience. Sometimes the fun and excitement experienced in a particular event would get added by the mere thrill factor in that successful venture. An unexpected win could make it seem rewarding, and that's how victory often turns into something fulfilling and memorable.

Perhaps it is an example of one's experience with the Plinko game. It is that very factor of unpredictability and surprise that can make such a power much more useful than we would imagine. Inversely, if you do get something which you expect, and it was a good thing, it carries less surprise or excitement because your mind was already set for it.

The satisfaction and reward philosophy can be attached to this concept, then. The thrill of the unexpected is maybe an important part of what makes games so much fun. Thanks for sharing thoughts and experiences-it's always nice to hear how different accomplishments impact people differently!

In most of the other instances, it is clear that the unintended pleasure and satisfaction of winning unexpectedly would be different from what gamblers would indeed expect from those predictable. You mentioned, for instance, most gamblers attended a casino or casino anticipating great wins that could bring high expectations of success, hence having their hopes dashed the moment everything did not work out as anticipated.

On the other side, there are gamblers who place their bets with a positive attitude: one either expects to lose or hopes to win big. The unexpected success may give them an especially strong kick because it goes against expectations set up at the beginning.

Such dynamics are manifested in your experiences with Plinko, where unexpected success creates more excitement than predictable sports betting. Surrounded by the surprise of a win, it turned out to be memorable and exciting because it was against your initial expectations. This links to the broader understanding that, in gambling, unintended outcomes-either in the case of wins or losses-tend to have a greater emotional impact compared to outcomes which one already expected is consistent.

You will never get excited on expected things since your excitement with that matter is so low so provably once you hit the target you know that will came  your interest to continue will fade out and you decide to quit since you already get what you want. Compare to unexpected things where every result is unknown which provably could make everything spectacular especially if there's a near miss win came since for sure that scenario will try to convince you to gamble more since you got inspired to get a win for seeing those kind of result. Also feeling to gain from unexpected things is really fulfilling since you will get satisfied with the result since you feel like you are been so lucky at the time you play.

I don't know if there's someone feel excited when they know what is the result of the action they have done, but usually entertainment part will always came from thing you didn't expect.

[giorgione]

Ah, what are you saying my friend! I agree with you that the greatest emotion comes from unexpected things. It's like when Roma scores a goal in the last minute, that thrill that makes you jump in your seat!



Unfortunately this rarely happens or it would no longer be unexpected.

[bering]

In my opinion expected win will not make people getting excited because usually expected win is predictable and usually people have already know and confident they will win the bets but it could be different if people can gets the money from unexpected win because they never thought can win the money from their bets and i have one experience regarding unexpected win because several years ago i was playing dice at primedice so at that time i just try to enjoy the game by setting 40x payout but surprisingly before my balanced getting dry i was won my bets and i can gets 40x payout from my initial bets but unfortunately that luck only happened once because since then i have never been able to get the results just like i mentioned above

[HelliumZ]

For me, the unexpected victory will be the most joyful because the sure victory of that which is uncertain should be joyful. I want to explain this in a sense I placed a bet on a cricket match where the cricket match will require four runs in the last over for my team to win. But the last ball was bowled out straight away so my team lost and my bet was lost but luckily the last ball was a no ball and that no ball hit four and my team won so my bet unexpectedly won and I lost my $100.  Win the bet.

[Churchillvv]

I don't know how people have unexpected wins but personally I don't have unexpected win but I could decide to consider one an unexpected win but logically it's not unexpected.

when I win a bet, it's an expected win because their is no way you would have to stake some few cents and not expect a positive result even though most times it ends up in disappointment but we surely expected the win.

Regardless I would still have to admit that when I succeed in something I have already lost hope on it gives me more joy than when I have full assurance of the risk that I take then it turns out to be exactly what I expected.

[Awaklara]

gamblers who bet definitely expect to win. if you play a game like slots, how much do you expect to win? the expectations that gamblers have are different when they bet on sports betting. with fairly convincing odds as exemplified by OP, gamblers will still be happy when they win but it is according to their expectations. so it is not too surprising or gives a feeling of extraordinary joy.
but it is different when you get a big multiplier on your bet. That is a very surprising and unexpected victory. such a feeling of victory fosters extraordinary joy. and of course, it is more exciting for gamblers.

Perhaps you have a some point here but I wouldn't agree more or less your point that we do have unexpected wins in some kind of gambling but that means when we take those bets we hope we get lucky but expect to lose that's all I can relate to what you have said above and that is the only convincing reason why I can say that gamblers do of course have unexpected wins but in my opinion I feel it's always expect but in some way it could go beyond our expectations for instance one expecting to have at least 2 to 5 wins in a wager of 10 but i could consider it unexpected victory if one gets to hit 9 or 10 of 10 attempt.

The feelings are always not the same, although others can argue differently if you spend time to predict games, picking your favourite team, or whatever criteria you use in making your selection, be it low, odd, what, etc. From the time you select those games, some part of you could have already been rejoicing that the game will play based on what you predict, and if it eventually plays that way, the happiness just continues. 
 
The joy that comes with winning slot games is just different. Let's use the plinko, for example. You never expected such an amount to be won out of your $5, but you continue playing, and luck keeps on shining on you. The joy is just different.

I think that once we have won, whether expected or unexpected, it has different emotions and the value both bring is also relatively unique, although surprise is more emotional but expected brings higher satisfaction. And to be determined to choose what is more interesting, I still realize that satisfaction makes our people more comfortable because there, we realize the value of knowledge and skills, surprise has a quick fun factor but cannot be assessed deep in our people, momentary things don't last as long as satisfaction, desire and achievement are always better.

Look, you're right, emotions are different when you win unexpectedly than when you win waiting for it. But in the end what matters most is the satisfaction you feel. Satisfaction makes you feel more comfortable because you understand the value of knowledge and skills.

This is why I don't like betting too much, I prefer games of skill.

[madnessteat]

To me every win brings positive emotions, because deep down I still hope to win in every gambling session although I realize that it is impossible.

It happens that there is a little money left on my account and I make a last bet on everything to quickly finish the gambling session and do other things, but at that moment I am lucky and I win. I find it difficult to say whether this win can be called unexpected and whether it brings me more emotions than the win I am waiting for if I gamble for the sake of emotions from winning.

Imo there’s no such thing as expected win for me in gambling since I consider my bets partly loss already. Most of my expected win especially on Blackjack always ended up on loss which is frustrating that’s why I never assume a win on my bets unless it already settled.

Answering the topic, Unexpected win always the exciting part since you have a huge money without looking forward on it. I just recently won around 800$ using a small amount of bankroll. I never thought to earn this money out of nowhere that’s why I can’t believe myself when I hit the big win.

Hitting a huge win while you are just casually playing is the most satisfying experience compared when you hit big win while you are expecting already that it will happened.

[michellee]

Winning that are unexpected gives excitement to us because we never expecting we can win. When we expect to win much money but the result we lose our money, that will make us sad. That makes us want to recover our lose and makes many people forget that gambling can make them win and lose without they can expect.

I have that experience before so I started not to think about the result. As long as I can spend my time and enjoy the games, that will be enough for me. I know that gambling is only for fun so I don't chase the win.

But I can prevent the lose not to become bigger because I experienced of lose for some money. Sometime when we only want to have fun in gambling, we win the games because we don't think too serious about gambling. That will be better for us because we don't mind to lose for some money we can afford to lose. So nothing to lose for us to playing gambling.
