I am not lucky, I make my own luck

I viewed the declaration on a friend status after winning his sports bet tonight in the first games of the first leg of the round of 16 Champions League games that have being concluded today. And I didn't think to ask him what could have given him the confidence to make the bold declaration. Could it be a new strategy he has discovered that has being pulling in winnings for him, what do you all think can make a gambler so bold in making such statement in an activity like gambling that winning outcomes are predominantly of luck not approach nor experience.

The only way to create your own luck is through hard work, giving your best at what you do and providing value to people and society. Creating luck in betting or gambling, however, is a complete contradiction, as it's impossible to predict anything or be certain of results. So, I think it's more of your friend's fallacy than anything else.

This is as good to say that in gambling, there is no winning guarantee, even the professional gamblers are still losing form their bets. The only edge you can have in gambling is when you get lucky from your bets and make significant wins.

However, we cannot leave the fact that sports betting is also a game of skill, but skills without luck is still pointless. Luck is still the predominant factor, the rest are just helping tools. And this also goes to the rest of the gambling games, as even slots are not just luck alone but skills and strategies also count.

He's just being cocky. Does he keep up with the same energy when he losses which for most gamblers is often. Watch him during he next few bets and let us know if he still has the declaration on his status or it has been modified or completely changed.
Gambling is a game of luck and the only type of casino games where you have a higher chance of making your own luck are in games that requires skills. The more skillful you are the higher your luck.

There's no new strategy if it's with sports bet, he's fortunate to win his bet and if he's saying that he's making his own luck. That only means that he's doing his research before betting, it's what I think he's doing. So even if you ask him for some tips and strategies, he's lucky now. I am not saying wait for the downturn of events and it's about him losing money that's about to come. I guess that's anticipated and surely will come to him and he knows it. But, he's got a way to avoid more of those losses so that he can preserve what he has won and won't allow to lose it all. Another, most winners are boastful like this. When we win, we like to brag about it and we're not telling that it's not all about luck but us.

Luck happens more often when you create a means for it, it prevails more where there is a means of it to actually flow and not get limitations to how it can flow within that circle. The circumstances surrounding luck is very numerous that even in your best of time or worst of time, when luck finds you, you’ll get to see better results. It may or may not be attached to what we call experience though, because it doesn’t dwell their for too long sometimes, and when it does we generally term it to experience again. So luck is generally a scenario that occurs when you least expect it sometimes, not with our power, experience or myth has much effect on it happening.

Essentially I think what the friend is saying is indeed he has a strategy and that has to mean
research in order to help make a selection on who is going to do ^{or not do} what
he bets on.

Relying on pure luck along would be like flipping a coin to select team A or B.

Luck is a strange one its not based on science and in sports betting all the research in the world
cannot guarantee a win 100% of the time, something unpredictable will happen at some stage.

[Alphakilo]

Am certain such a friend has a proven strategy of how he creates his own luck in gambling, because I sure as hell never seen anyone make a bold claim when they aren't the bookmakers nor have any affiliation with them.
Although like I said before, professional gamblers exit in reality and they have a good ratio of wins to losses, but no one gambles without losses no matter the kind of luck you created nor how professional you are, because the games change, the probability changes and am sure if the friend in this post tries betting on just normal stages of League matches, without the ease of round of 16 where scorelines could easily be predicted, such luck would have to be tested to know how legit such luck personally created is.

[Yorubek]

I believe that luck plays a big role in winning at gambling, only lucky people can win big at gambling, we can only gamble by researching and nothing more, we have to depend on luck to win. Only lucky gamblers can win repeatedly at gambling. If your friend does not believe in luck, that is his personal matter, but from my point of view it is never possible to win at gambling without luck. Where the results of gambling are completely predictable, it is never possible for you to create your own luck.

[mcdouglasx]

In sports betting, experience in reading statistics and understanding how matches unfold is very important since we cannot control external factors, nor luck. I suppose those statements are just a mantra he repeats to himself to feel that way, since luck is uncontrollable. You may have all the data, you may have a perfect strategy, but still, in the 90th minute, a player could be sent off and you could end up losing the match, and this is unpredictable.

It is possible to change one's luck through hard work but it is never possible to change one's luck in gambling. Confidence can always encourage someone to gamble but cannot win in gambling. People are very emotional so they cannot handle the profit of gambling. Spending too much time in gambling. If they win in gambling they feel very lucky and they have a lot of confidence and they start thinking of themselves as a winner and if they lose in gambling then they feel unlucky but they do not stop gambling.

That applies more to traditional gambling games. In the OP's case, it was sports betting, where luck isn't the main factor unless you're just randomly choosing a team or scoreline. Sports betting usually involves research and analysis before placing a bet, unlike most casino games where the outcome is heavily dependent on luck, regardless of whether they are provably fair or not.

I have often seen people like this, when they win betting on a match, they will create stories on their social media with words that are too exaggerated, as if they were always right in predicting the outcome of the match. I said that they were too arrogant and lost in the euphoria of their victory, so they made words or claims like they were gods who could read the future. I personally don't pay much attention to things like this, because they were just lucky at the time, and there is no guarantee that in the next bet they can win again.

[JoyMarsha]

Some people can be funny at times. I guess your friend knows that he's not better than many who lost their bet tonight on Champions League games.

Your friend shouldn't think it is by his making his prediction happen that way(winning bets), forgetting he was just lucky as their bet ended the way they predicted it, without dying minutes ending another way. Your friend should still count himself lucky rather than feeling like he got the winning streak in gambling, which is a wrong mentality that could lead to many losses

[uneng]

It reminds me that old charge...



Concepts like these are the ones which encourage irresponsible gambling. They play with a fake concept where personal effort corresponds to a determining force in gambling matters, while we know that for real it's all about luck and a mathematical factor which ensures the house long term profitability.

The more you play, more you lose. There isn't a bucket of gold in the end of the gambling session waiting for you, the same way you can't make your own luck in gambling, as it's out of your control, doesn't matter how much effort (and money) you put on it.

I think hi very statement of him is as a result of excitement of winning, if the outcome of the game was the opposite of what he got he would have really understand what it means to be lucky but since he won he just thought winning is easy.

The trut is that nobody can change gambling from what it is, gambling remains the same . It's is not easy to be lucky  and winning is as a result of luck. People who are lucky to win especially their first attempt of gambling normally thinks gambling is easy and feels that is how gambling is.

Kind of law of attraction? I think it works but it really depends on how it's done I guess. Well, if he got the edge on why he's that confident on his bets I think he research more on those to be that sure of his own luck. I don't think it's a strategy, it's more like he's sure he can lost that amount and yeah being brave sometimes is good and that it brings in some luck to your life. It's like luck is working if you work on it.

You adding skill makes it not dependent fully on luck and I don't consider that as being lucky. Taking the time to do research before gambling is not luck, and winning a bet tonight especially after placing bet on Liverpool and Barcelona must be remarkable and I won't say such a person is lucky.

Definitely sport bookers will often have more days but this won't stop someone with a good strategy and management to be on the gain. It takes time but often worth it but never should be consider as a means to earn a living.

Of course what he his saying is that truth, winning only comes by luck, no amount of strategy or knowledge can make you win but luck
 
In gambling luck always play major role in our wins you don't grow it but comes naturally and can come to play only when you are patient .

Could it be a new strategy he has discovered that has being pulling in winnings for him

I have a friend like him that make money from gambling, until he increased the money that he is using to gamble and everything become opposite for him and he started to lose and he later quit gambling.

Just advise him not to think of increasing the money he is using to gamble as it will affect his emotions and this will affect how he is selecting matches and become greedy.

But it is good to know that this kind of luck is not all the time and he should be very careful because sport betting can favour someone today and unfavour someone tomorrow in a way that the person might lose all the money won and start losing his own money.
