When gambling what do you measure? Luck or chances?

What's usually your pick as a gambler since sometimes some persons are luckier than others?

I might be misinterpreting, but in case i am not, this is not a thing. Person isn't lucky, but person could have been lucky, there's a difference.

It's not a thing you can repeat or predict. It's just a term to describe the past, not term to describe a person.

I am pretty sure that many of us are looking for that sweet spot where the odds are high enough compared to changes of winning (a.k.a value bets).
But more then often, i just leave everything to change, because sometimes thought of small possibility of winning big is just enough.

Is there any perceived luck which is not personal when we talk about gambling, though?

I didn't want to respond because he clearly misquoted himself twice, but that's fine, or let's just assume that I have no clue what the author referred to as the term "Personal luck".

There have been also instances of people winning the lottery twice, and there are also examples which have nothing to do with gambling, as the Indian-British man who survived that recent airplane crash in India when he was going back to the UK with his family. The was the only survivor.

So even though you don't believe in luck, you gotta admit there are people who beat all possibilities and we could tag or categorize as "lucky".

The fact is, you don't have to believe in "luck" to get lucky; Since it doesn't have any significant control or a to-do list that activates it, neither does it work like salvation in the Christendom where you'd have to believe before you're saved, it only needs to happen by chance.

The aim of every gamblers is to win and as much as we can say so we have to make sure that we go for games that we are sure if winning because at a point following odds is far better when you choose the odds yourself based on your understanding of the team playing, for me is better to risk a big amount of money to stake on a low odds if I am sure of winning the bet, the ultimate aim is to win and not lose along the line, most small odds always end in winning unless something unexpected happen along the line.

Even when you have a high chance of winning, it doesn't mean that victory will come, it's just that the belief remains the belief generated by yourself to the point that you believe will pay off.

There are gamblers who bet on large odds with small odds rather than large odds with large capital but only small odds, such a mechanism can be chosen with the representation of one's own thinking, people will gamble according to what they are thinking like that with random luck.

Betting with luck or betting with ability and confidence.

Everything depends on on several factors in gambling to put your ticket in that winning slot. From time, to your stake, to the odds and to how frequent other gamblers have won for the time, day/week.

I would like to add some reservations here that this describes casino games and not sports betting since the degree of wins obtainable from other gamblers has nothing to do with your sports booking, the outcome of every match is entirely dependent on the actions on the pitch.

Although there are some correct factors you mentioned that applies to sports betting too which is your stake, the odds present and also I'll add the good predictions you make out of your good understanding of the both parties involved in the match, but for the results, you rely on the outcomes after the conclusion of the matches.

Sports prediction is quite a near  independent area of betting in the sense that most times when you book your tickets, you tend to know when you're going beyond possible lucks. Factors like odds are always there which is the first step in making a booking decision. Practically speaking, a generally assumed better teams are given lower odds, but sometimes it doesn't go as predicted. I believe that to succeed, you have to be current with teams actions and injuries update in order not to play based on your previous knowledge of the team even when the key players are not available. Your stake also matters, lower stakers mostly book longer tickets which opens them to higher chances of loosing than winning. There are lucks more in casinos whose principles are not very clear, but sports betting is more tactical.

You know, personally, I will bend toward smaller odds with higher chances of winning, which is less risky, more consistent. This may be slow but it keeps you in the game for long. Haven said so, I understand reason why some prefer high-odds bets, the attraction of big payment and the joy that follows it. Though with time, depending on luck alone really don't end well. Meanwhile, unless you have strong reason or system backing up a big-odds bets, it remains seeking thrill than strategy. Which is why it all depends on ones mindset and goals

[tread93]

Different gambling activities have different chances attached to them and when I mean chances I am referring to the probability you have for actually win the bet or hit the jackpot in games like crash and slots. This is basically because sometimes unrealistic bets can sometimes play out as a win and some other times bets that have a high winning chance can eventually become the losing bet.

I believe people who gamble on sports may understand this better since sometimes in sports betting some gambler's prefer to go for the smaller odds that usually have a higher winning chance and sometimes they can still end up a losing game however some prefer to go for the big game with big odds and smaller winning chances.

What's usually your pick as a gambler since sometimes some persons are luckier than others?

You know it could go either way for me, sometimes I really want to have the bigger bets even though the chances to win may be smaller but the smaller bets are of course more affordable depending on where youre at. Generally I've done more of the smaller bets personally

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I’ll go for the higher probability of winning chances because that’s our ultimate goal, to make money and earn more money from gambling. But let’s not also forget that part of the reason we won is because we got the luck that time. I still believe luck plays a vital role in gambling. And if you aren’t lucky or luck isn’t at your side, the chances of winning is very low.

So if one decides to gamble, don’t just grow your knowledge and skills, but attract your luck as well.

Luck is random, it can happen at any moment, on any game and even when a player didn't expect it, that's why no matter what ever method that one is using to gamble, you have to always welcome luck but choose games with high chance of being successful and not to take too much risk of staking on low chance games while hoping on luck alone and like you said, for every gambler, the goal is to have win and even when you want to have fun alone, you also deserve winning.

Basically,gambling is not predictable it can be based on luck or by chance.We often say gambling is a game of luck,you might get lucky overtime but the probability of having much wins is majorly dominated by the chance.That's my favourable experience so far,the earlier we understand that Gambling happens unexpectedly the better for us.

it really depends on the game and situation but I agree most gambling games are based on luck
it's hard for most people because we have a hard time dealing with the unexpected, accepting that we don't have so much control over situations and things can spiral out of control at any moment
this is one of the things that gambling can teach people about

I do depend on both luck and chance when I place a bet on sports betting. Sometimes I take the risk to bet on higher odds and bet with little amount of money, hoping on luck for the game to go my way. I also bet on smaller odds, which I believe have the better chance of winning.
Sometimes  I even mix it up just to boost the odd, that's when I feel a team is giving a very high odd and I expect the team to win, so I can add like 2-3 games that has high odds to the lesser  odds, and sometimes I tend to get lucky with it.

In fact, players need to learn to be less surprised by the results of the game, because losses and wins are part of the game and there is little that depends on us, and luck influences almost everything. Therefore, if I used to be surprised by many things, now I will not be too upset by losses, because it is always impossible to win. I will never say that luck decides 100%, because there are professionals in gambling who still manage to play for a positive profit over a long distance, which means they just know a little more than ordinary players and are excellent at dealing with emotions.

If you believe in luck, you can console yourself. And if you lose once for some reason, you can blame luck and temporarily remove yourself from gambling. But if you take it as chance, then of course if you lose once, you will take a chance next time and if you lose the next time, you will take a third chance because you believe in chance.
In this way, if you believe in chance, you will take a chance to recover all the losses given in the past and you will never be able to control yourself while taking chances. But if you believe in luck, you can stop yourself from blaming luck, so from my point of view, not chance but luck is the measure of gambling.

Some gamblers lack the proper orientation on how to identify the most suitable game of their choice, instead of them aligning to discover what's good for them and how they can play such, they only gamble by playing games randomly and at the end of it all, they see it as bad luck, or even say that they are being cheated upon under the system, each games has their own way of how we should play them and what to expect from them, just as some are depending on luck, while some will be our our abilities and information we had about them before we could play to satisfaction.

I think in this case it depends on each person's perception and comfort level because what they play and find interesting may not necessarily be the same for other people because their perceptions are different. So in this case, it will ultimately be divided in terms of the game depending on their preferences, such as those who prefer to play slots or perhaps sports betting.

However, I don't think that's a problem because, regardless of the type of game they choose to play, the most important thing is how well they can control themselves in their gambling activities.
Many are not fully aware of this, as when they want to gamble, they end up being controlled by the game itself. This is evident when they cannot control themselves and their emotions are always prioritized when gambling, especially when they lose. Regardless of the type of game, it all comes down to personal preference, but what is most important here is how we control ourselves when we play in the end.

The odds are my benchmark in gambling. Gambling on sports betting types. For slots, I prioritize luck which I don't force if there is no chance of winning.

Sports gamblers often make small odds the preferred number because the chances of winning are higher even though the failure or destruction of the betting list is also common.
For gamblers who are more focused on sports, they are very familiar with the quirks that will occur in the results.

When playing in crash and slots, chances of winning is very slim and does not guarantee you a sure outcome, I wonder why many players win much in blackjack, what's unique about it?

When gambling in sport, a simple analysis and predictions can set you up to a greater win, chances of winning is pretty much sure, I prefer sport betting over anything.

[Jaycoinz]

I prefer to work with chances than luck this is the reason why I play sports betting. Casino games are just based on luck asides from poker that's skilled based compared to others. Games like crash and slots are all centered around luck, this is the reason why I don't focus much on these game expect I'm just trying to have fun. In sports betting you have a chance of winning when you are the type of bettor that analyzes and carry proper research

I also prefer the chances. We will only know we are lucky if we won several times and less loses and we don't even know how long we will remain lucky until we became unlucky. Well, doing research would really increase our chances in winning but it doesn't really mean that we will surely win as it is also based on how lucky a person is but as I have explained that analysis could INCREASE the chance of winning but it's not all the time because even if you did some research but still loses in the end.

What's usually your pick as a gambler since sometimes some persons are luckier than others?

The first thing that someone has to understand is in which area they gamble. For instance, you can't measure chances when you are playing slots. You know that only luck can make a significant change, no matter what your strategy is. On the other hand, gambling on sports involves chances. You need luck as well, but the result isn't solely based on luck. So, my measurement goes accordingly with which area of gambling I play.

Recently gambling on soccer bet has been the only place I gamble on though it is very difficult to get winning if you combine multiple games but as a gambler there is always a lucky day for you if you are consistent with research on the teams that are in good form and you don't gambling based on the game odds.

You will never get good success if you gamble based on the odds of the game. Whenever you participate in sports betting with your own analysis, you will have a much higher chance of winning through your own analysis. There are many people here who participate in betting without understanding and participate in betting by seeing the highest odds and later find out that they lost with the highest odds. So if you want to bet on sports, you must participate in betting by seeing your own analysis and low odds so that you can make your bet successful.
