Is gambling a game of luck, a game of strategy, or a game of discipline

[maydna]

As you say, gambling depend on those three but luck will takes the main part as without luck, you can't win the games. You will losing money many times even you have strategy and discipline but don't have luck.

But gamblers will not thinks much as they thinks that their luck will comes anytime so they will still playing gambling. Managing discipline is important as that protect from gambling excessively.

If other people says all of the three is important and should be prioritize, that will not be a problem and up to them. Gamblers will have their ways to take care themselves so that will depends on what they will do.

In sports betting, too, nothing can be predicted accurately. Because sometimes a relatively strong team loses to a weaker team. It is not possible to say exactly who will win or who will lose. Here, if only one's limit can be fixed, then it is possible to control the amount of loss. Only this strategy protects a gambler from major losses. The main goal in gambling should be to be able to continue betting for entertainment for a long time, not profit. And for this, if the limit is in control, the amount of loss is also in control.

I personally think that luck can make a gambler win once or twice but if a gambler has the right strategy and discipline in gambling then he doesn't have to depend on luck.

Now I want to know from you whether you will prioritize luck, strategy and discipline or whether you will compromise on all three at the same time.

I will just put it in order.
Luck, discipline, strategy.

Discipline for me is the second that a gambler needs because I haven't seen a disciplined gambler that doesn't have any strategy at all when it comes to gambling. Maybe there are some gamblers out there that have strategy, but if they aren't disciplined enough to follow it then it will just be useless. Of course, luck for me is the first because gambling is a game of luck. You can have the strategy where you follow, you can be disciplined enough to follow that strategy, but if you aren't lucky enough to win in gambling then you will still end up losing your money.

You need those three in their own way, but many will agree with me that gambling is all about luck.

There is a difference between gambling and betting as we all know, gambling mostly emphasis on casino games while betting emphasis on sports betting. now if we are talking about luck game, it should be on casino games and when talking about strategy and decipline we talk about sport betting, because there is no strategy in Gambling since there is no pattern to win, it completely depend on luck to win while on sport bet you don't completely depends on luck but analysis and prediction.

Now I want to know from you whether you will prioritize luck, strategy and discipline or whether you will compromise on all three at the same time.

Well if you must know, you can only prioritize the one that is more important to you. If you are gambling you prioritize luck and decipline, but if you are betting you prioritize strategy and decipline.

Can't it be all?
Some games just need one part than the other
Though in everything nothing can't beat luck not even skill
To be sincere, most times we call luck when skill couldn't accomplish it or non existent.
Gambling is a game of chance
And the three can help give an edge.

I was hoping so.

It's most likely possible to be all, but I will go with what you said. One part is needed than the other at certain areas. Discipline beats strategy at all time. We can try to use our strategy but discipline will win.

There's one strategy some people do use, where you have to increase your bet after every loss. It worked for me one time, but I had later found that it was not going to be consistent enough.before you know it, I have exhausted my depo.

I had to play smart and stay disciplined.luck, like you said too. Nothing beats luck you can deceive yourself that you are some expert but try and see why everything you do revolves around luck.

The most important thing in gambling is to understand perfectly why you came to it in the first place, and of course, this also applies to betting, and these two hobbies are very similar to each other, because discipline and strategy are important there (I'm talking about poker or Blackjack in an online casino). Because in other types of gambling, only luck rules the ball. And of course, you need to understand perfectly why you came to gambling, as I said at the beginning: do you need pleasure? or you need to earn money in gambling, although I am very convinced that those who are looking for earnings in gambling are people who will lose initially. They are doomed to it.

Seriously, OP? And what should someone who gambles rely on? What strategy are you talking about? Is it possible or necessary for me to understand that you can know, having your intended strategy, the results of the games for sure? Have you ever heard of what the "human factor" is? Sports events are usually played out by people who are not actors, who do not act according to a made-up scenario. That's why everything you're saying is complete nonsense. If it were that simple, then those who knew for sure the results of the games would sell forecasts, and all casinos would go bankrupt in a very short time.

Basically, gambling is any game of luck or skill. But majority prioritize luck in gambling over skills and strategies, even with the case of sports betting.

Personally, my own stance about gambling is that it has always been a game of luck, and will always be. Although not all games can be considered as pure luck, but luck should always be part of the game to ensure winning.

However, having skills and strategies, and discipline are proven to increase chances of winning, but at the end of the day, gambling is definitely all about luck.

At end of the day, everyone decides how to play their game and where they can draw the line but, they should be careful in order to not withdraw the line when its already late because there is no use for it again, expect you fight against the addiction and  protect you mental wellbeing. Although, its hard to resist the urge but, since gambling won't work according to the way you are expecting, its just better to keep it as an entertainment.

All of them are needed. You don’t go all out on strategy and expect to win when luck is also needed. You use strategy to help you put your bet in the right path, make you get rid of some unnecessary games that are already looking like a bad game.

Are there any games that are bad games? every single game has potentials, and anyone can with good amounts even with the game someone else would consider as a bad game, and that's what luck does. The only reason gamblers fail to understand this is because they often downplay the role of luck in gambling and end up depending solely on their own skills and analysis. Having a good strategy isn't bad, but it's crucial to know that there's only so much that your strategy can do for you, which is to increase your chances.

This kind of discussion is often held that whether gambling is directly dependent on luck or is gambling dependent on strategy, and similarly, is gambling dependent on discipline? I think gambling depends on these three. For those who play casino, strategy or discipline is not really useful, but luck is useful, and because of this luck, many people win big and many people lose big. Similarly, those who bet do not have the opportunity to depend on luck, but they have to depend on their strategy. Because in betting, there are usually two sides and among these two sides, one side is strong and the other side is relatively less strong, and a gambler has to check and choose these things, so here I will say that the gambler has to completely depend on strategy. However, if you are going to gamble for a long time, discipline plays the most important role. I think this discipline includes controlling your emotions, managing money, and taking a break in between gambling at the right time.

I personally think that luck can make a gambler win once or twice but if a gambler has the right strategy and discipline in gambling then he doesn't have to depend on luck.

Now I want to know from you whether you will prioritize luck, strategy and discipline or whether you will compromise on all three at the same time.

Gamblers cannot do without these three factors mentioned, which are strategy, luck, and discipline, but at the same time, a gambler might not posses these three things at the same time. Some gamblers can only win bets purely based on luck. For instance, some gamblers will go to the betting shop or play online, they will pick games at random without proper research, and they will a game , but some gamblers don't pick games at random, they make sure they research properly before placing their bet, this particular system of betting is strategic. Gamblers who are strategic win bet too, but not all the time.
As for discipline, gamblers who are very disciplined in nature, stick to bankroll, odds, and budgeting. They equally win sometimes, but not all the time. In nutshell, winning a bet is a combination of these three factors.

There's no one way answer to this, and how valid OP's statement can be is dependent on the type of game involved. Indeed there are games that do not really need luck if the player has a good strategy, so OP might no really be saying complete nonsense if he's talking about games like poker, blackjack and a few other card games to be precise, because these games are 100% skill, Yeah, no need for luck here, it's just you, your skills, experience and your guts.

Gambling is not a game of strategy, but rather an uncertain game of luck, where no matter how strategic you are, you will not get any benefit from being strategic in gambling.
However, if you bring discipline to gambling, I would say that if you follow discipline, you can reduce the amount of losses you incur in gambling. If you are overly emotional, you can control your emotions if you follow discipline. If you are overly greedy and at the same time, you can control your greed if you follow discipline. If you follow the strategy, you may not get any benefit in terms of profit or loss, but if you follow the discipline, you can get some benefit in terms of profit or loss.

If you generalize gambling in the statement then you might not be entirely right, because not all games are 100% reliant on luck. In gambling, we have different types of games and each of these games has their different rules and approach. we have luck based games, which is the one you're talking about, and your assertion is completely correct when it comes to luck based games, because no skill is needed at all here. And then we have the skill based games, these sort of games requires little to no amount of luck, so even if the gambler isn't a lucky one, as long as he knows exactly what he's doing, then he can still win.
