unrealistic target make us lose in gambling

[Julien_Olynpic]

If you are gambling in a casino, how can you set any goals for yourself, let alone long-term or short-term ones that are unrealistic? In sports betting, a long winning streak is possible over the long term, but it requires a unique strategy based on an equally unique edge. Before setting ambitious or unrealistic goals, isn’t it better to ask yourself: What is my edge? Why can’t others copy my strategy? If you can’t answer these simple but uncomfortable questions, then maybe you don’t just have no answer, you don’t have an edge. A real edge. If you don’t have an edge, then expecting to make a profit over the long term is truly unrealistic. If you have already made a profit after a short series of trades, then the best thing for you is to just stop and not take any risks.

It is really not a good idea to aim for huge wins, just play casually and let luck surprise us.

Many will believe in this because each of us has personally experienced that if we keep on chasing the bigger wins with small capital, we're most likely going to lose them all.

But if we casually bet on them and there are no promises or aims of hitting the big wins ,and simply enjoying the bets and letting them come. We're getting the unexpected wins.

This happens often if we're having fun and forgetting the moment of what we're targeting most. So, should you win then aim for your personal thoughts and those wins and money will come after.

You're right that impressive winnings usually happen when you don't expect them at all. Nevertheless, I think that many gamblers are prone to emotional actions, and many of them probably get greedy and want to chase a big win when they see another player win a huge prize for a small bet.

All of us, I guess, are prone to emotional thoughts, and we're quick to be moved by it. If we're not careful with it, that's when we get triggered easily.

And the usual thing as a gambler, we get greedy. When we're not going to watch ourselves on how it goes with all of our bets, we're bound to none other than greed.

Chasing of losses is what comes next and the rest will be history and will be added to the usual story of being addicted in gambling.

It seems to me that the word "goal" applies only to situations that you have complete control over. Can you win in gambling? In most cases, no.

In gambling, winning depends only on your luck. And how can you control your luck? Is it possible to control your luck? In my opinion, no. Accordingly, you cannot set goals in gambling. Neither long-term, nor medium-term, nor short-term...

Of course, you can control the process of gambling itself. For example, you can set yourself such a task - not to worry, always remain cool, be calm (while gambling). You can also impose limits on your bankroll.

However, winning or losing in gambling, in most cases, does not depend on you. Of course, unless we are talking about games such as poker or sports betting.

Because they believe such fortunate situation can also happen to them. That's why it's one of the effective way to encourage others to gamble. Showing them a huge win is certainly tempting because they'll become motivated to play but not aware of the risk. Anyway, we all want to win, but using a small amount then hoping to gain huge is rare, unless you're really lucky. Thus, it's better to lower our expectation.

Classic example of the average player, emotions act in our lives, if we also evaluate the markets undergo
variations due to the volatility of people's emotions.
They advertise a lot of victories with a few pennies and this is exactly what attracts new improvised players,
the small drags the big.
I've been reading for a few days that some "professional" players are trying ninja betting (it consists of exploiting
the various bonuses of betting sites to make bets).
The mechanism seems to work and therefore it could be more or less feasible to set a goal, I'm getting a culture
you never stop learning.

Rather than setting unrealistic target, we better to play casually and enjoy every moment in gambling. We don't know when luck will come but that will surprise us if luck really come to us at that moment.

So gambling should not be seriously because gambling itself is for fun and we don't have to expect with the win. If we don't find it easily to win, we can quit gambling and continue in the other days. That will not make us being aggressively chasing the win or our target because we know the risk.

If more gamblers realize about this, we will not hear too many losing gamblers will regret. They can consider that gambling is an entertainment so they will try to treat as it was. They will not set unrealistic target because they don't see they have a big chance to achieve it.

In sports betting, most people that I know usually do this greedy betting strategy in their bets. Some of them will stake in a parlay that has more than 50 games and 2k - 4k+ odds, the staking amount could just be $1 - $10 to win thousands of dollars. At the end they still lose these bets and I wonder why they keep repeating the process over and over again believing that they can just be lucky one day. As a smart gambler, it better to stake on what can be possible and not the impossible.

You have to understand that everyone has their own strategy when it comes to betting, your kind of betting may be different from another gamblers kind of betting, and the fact that you both don't bet the same way does not necessarily mean they are being greedy, it's simply their own strategy..

Betting in a parley with over 20 games and with an odd of 2k to 4k or even more is not being greedy, its still very possible to win this type of bet, only thing is that the chances are very slim, so to say that a gambler betting on this type of game is betting on the impossible is a complete wrong statement, they might be betting on this type of games and losing but a win one day could recover the loses they've accured over time.

I’ve also thought about this more than once, but honestly I was thinking not about odds of 2x or more, but about making odds around a hundred and placing one dollar bets. Yes, I understand that such a parlay has very little chance of winning, but still the risk-to-stake ratio is very low, and maybe I’ll also try a few bets like that. It’s just that the season is over now, so I need to wait until there are more matches for this.

Have you ever noticed how gambling gets frustrating when you aim high but your capital is too small?

Like, let’s say you have a $10 bankroll but you’re aiming to win $500. Most of the time, you end up frustrated and then you lose control. You start chasing because you realize you're way too far from your goal, and your bankroll is quickly disappearing.

If a gambler has only $10 there isn't need to shoot for $500 target because it will make the $10 to end before reaching there because all the persons mind will be on how this $500 will be met immediately forgetting that since there Capital is too small they have to take it slowly, however if even using this amount to arrive at this targeted level one thing that could even set them back is impatient because already gambling has been complex enough to make someone no that is not by leveraging higher amounts they can have there targets but with small accumulation of bit by bit wining will guarantee more than any method.

It all depends on the player’s strategy. Some players choose small odds, around two, and place a large bet. Obviously, the chances of winning with that kind of strategy are higher. Other players, who don't have a big budget and can’t afford to risk large amounts of money, choose strategies where they place a very small bet but go for a high odds parlay. On the other hand, even reaching odds of 1000 is possible if you pick 10 events with odds of 2 in one parlay, which isn’t that unrealistic, one day they might get lucky.

Personally, I don’t really like bets with a low probability of winning, because I enjoy winning rather than just sitting and waiting for a win for a long time. But there are different players and different strategies, and no one stops you from using both at the same time betting on both small and big odds.

Well, it can be possible but it's totally rare bro, it can take years and yet you will not hear that someone hit a complete win in a parlay of about 50 games, that's why I said it's impossible. The chance of that happening is very slim. I enjoy to bet on parlay but what I do is that, I take my cash out offers as quick as it appears. I don't also bet on more than 10 or 20 games at once and I don't allow all the game to play out. The only parlay I will leave to run to the end is 5 games because the result can be possible compared to a parlay of 20 - 50.

Many players lose precisely because they are in a hurry to get rich faster, but one of the main thoughts is that you can't rush in gambling. It is necessary to think through a strategy, test it, constantly look for its negative aspects. And if a player simply goes in and decides that he is the chosen one and will now become rich, then gambling will punish him or, more simply, it will simply be an expensive lesson in monetary terms. You can't accelerate your bankroll too quickly if we are simply very unlucky at the very beginning of the journey.

Well, you are right, but still, if something has a very low chances of happening, we can't still it's impossible for such to happen because one never can tell, it might just happens surprisenly...

It is absolutely true that it's very rare for a gambler to win a parley of 20 games or more, I wouldn't even say 50 since I myself have never seen a parlay with up to 50 games, the highest I think I've seen is around 27 or so..
So, winning such a parley is as hard as impossible, but still, I wouldnt say it's completely impossible because we never know what luck has in store for someone out there.
When I was pretty new to gambling, after having gambled for a while and gains some experience, I used to say it's completely impossible for someone to win a parley of 5 games and more, until I saw in the news with evidence, someone won a parley of 18 games with around 22,000 odds, things like this may happen only once in a generation and this is why it's rare.

Yeah, I think I have seen someone that won a parlay of 15 games, I can't remember the total odd but the money he used to stake on that game was not up to $0.5 but yet the amount he won was still very large in our currency. If the case you explain is real, with 22k odd, even if the person staked with $5 or $10, that's a big win bro.

[Hatchy]

t’s happened to me many times. That’s why I think it’s better to do the opposite: start with a decent capital and aim for smaller, more realistic wins. It keeps you grounded and helps you manage your emotions better.

Though it is in a way unrealistic but if one decides to go all in and take the risk in a round so long he can afford to lose that $10 then there's nothing wrong it doing that. Most times some gamblers having just $10 and knows very well that if they lose that funds they might not be able to deposit for any other round they then have the mindset to flip such small amounts. They will eventually loss. Such person must learn to set realistic targets in their gambling activities to avoid losing what they can't afford.

I honestly cannot remember the actual amount of money that the gambler staked on that game but I am very certain it wasn't up to a dollar, but should be more than $0.5 though..

One thing is, those who are betting on parleys with this type of crazy odds don't usually stake a high amount on it, probably because they already know that their chances of winning is very slim so they just bet a very tiny amount of money they are very willing to lose.
I am very that the dude that won that parley with 22,000 odds wasn't expecting to win it, else, he possibly would have staked a higher amount of money on the game, but then, even with the small amount of money he staked, he still made tens of millions if the money won is converted to our local currency.

This win was one of the major reasons I started betting on parlays with high crazy odds, but I am yet to be as lucky 😂

[nara1892]

You have proven it yourself that setting unrealistic goals will only make you more disappointed and upset, moreover, it is clear from the start that setting goals to make money in gambling is the wrong goal regardless of how much capital you bring and how much winnings you target. Talking about gambling, actually nothing is impossible, it does not mean that it is impossible for you to succeed in achieving the amount of winnings you are targeting but you must be aware that it is a very rare result, meaning don't chase it too much and don't expect it too much.
