Is there anyone whom we can call gambling guru?

This is right because in an unpredictable game, the outcome is not in the hands of the player. No one can be an expert in such a thing, they might be successful in the business but not because they are expert. Gambling does not have expert, everything is based on probabilities that can fail at any time.

This is true that there is no expert in gambling, but people want to fall for it when they begin win in a row, they do not understand that sometimes it could be lucky so the probabilities that they will still loose again but the expert mentality will make them feel they can still keep winning any time because  they are now experts at it.

I largely concur with your argument that it does not have a real gambling guru. In variability-house-edge games, results are never controlled by a player and therefore, good winning streaks are not due to skill, but to chance. Experience, in the sense people tend to use it, is actually discipline, good bankroll management, selecting low-edge games, understanding when to quit, but all that does not ensure profit. The risk is that a streak gets you to develop overconfidence and conclude you can continue to win because you have figured it out. Such an attitude translates to greater risk and greater losses. It is better to consider gambling as entertainment and realize that everything may change anytime.

First thing you should know that not many people will shares their percentage of their bet. Many people sharing their wins but don't sharing their losses so we can't call someone as guru because we don't know them much. We only knows from the internet but don't know personally.

If you talking about the earning to be called a casino/gambling site guru, that will depends on how closest you knows him personally. But even if you close to him, that doesn't means he will open all of his bet to you and honest.

Gambling comes with so much uncertainty, so if luck decides to shine on you, that doesn’t make you a gambling guru , so I don’t think that word is actually the right word to use ,most people are living large and has other investment but post winning slips once once ,and many may think there only success it’s from that winning slip and think such person is a gambling guru , there is no expert In gambling it’s just about luck and good prediction.

I do know that person personally well, but in my local community that guy has been around poker for a very long time. All started from playing free rolls, then he has organized first (illegal or lets say offline at home tournaments) games, was among one who have started competing in offline tournaments in poker, organized online poker school and now keep on playing on multiple tables parallel (he runs blog and shares his success). That person within tens of years havent turned addicted (I believe that poker is really a hobby for him and a job), achieved and developed a person. I can call that person as poker guru.

Stories like these are certainly interesting to hear, because I played poker over 10 years ago and loved how so many people were obsessed with the game, so passionate about improving their skills and progressing. I don't really know anyone like that among my friends, but I still very rarely see a poker streamer who's been playing professionally for about 15 years. I consider him a poker guru, and watching him is incredibly interesting to me. Although it would seem that the hype for poker had faded during his golden years, perhaps because I'm interested in how he spends his time not only in the game but also in life.

10-15 years ago, online gambling wasnt as developed as it is now. I think online poker was only available gambling or most popular that time. Or people have changed their favorites during years. That person keep on playing even now. He used to have team that played online, now he is more focused on streaming and trying to take offline big tournaments. I have checked his blog, and he has been running it since 2009. I dont know how much he has lost (his blog/site does not provide such number), but his winnings are $+2millions in total on February 19, 2026.

If you are in a group where everyone is a gambler, you might see someone who seems luckier than the others. They talk a lot about analysis and predictions, and the people there will consider them the most skilled at gambling. 
It's not a title that guarantees the person will keep winning, but it's the people around them who give them that label. 
It's just a nickname for familiarity within the group, not necessarily meaning they are truly an expert, but people like that usually exist.

In my opinion, these two arguments presented in this discussion hold. Uncertainty is a key motivator in gambling and whether a person is as skilled as he/she claims, luck is a significant factor. Being a winning bettor or even spreading winning slips will not immediately qualify someone as a gambling guru as losses are seldom featured. Nevertheless, in the casino society, a person who has been found to know more about betting, calculations, and bankroll operations is always available. Due to this fact, people can profile them as a guru, although the title is more of reputation than actual success. As a matter of fact, in gambling, no one can prevent winning, at most experience can only manage the risk, but not remove the uncertainty.

Is not in gambling that someone will have a self appraisal on themselves without being disappointed in their own self with their countless loss predictions made.

Gambling is not what you go about praising self as a guru while it has made you lose more than the times you have had a few winnings. At least the number of times you had winnings can be counted and remember but the times you had losses can not be counted. That makes each one of us an average gambler, we lose more and win some.

Yes this is right 👍
To be honest there are people who parades themselves to be guru in gambling but if you draw a close statistics you would see that they don't actually have much winning percentage. The rate at which people wins while gambling is what that is determined if such person is a gambling guru, maybe 60/100 we can say that person is actually a successful gambler.
