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

[LastKiss]

~snip~
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 definitely prioritize discipline no matter how long or short time I gamble, discipline will always come first for me. Imagine betting all your money on something you’re very confident, whether it’s sport betting or a casino game and then losing the bet. After that you realize that if you had stay disciplined, you wouldn’t have lost so much money because your own greed took over. Lack of discipline is one of the main causes of many gambling problems, which is why building self discipline can help you a lot.

[CryptSafe]

As a gambler, you should know that this three factors you have mentioned is somehow directly responsible for a game outcome. As a player, you need discipline to be able to put your gambling habits and lifestyle under control, you also need a good strategy to be able to get a good winning streak of the possibility arises, you also will be dependent on luck to crown your efforts because they say gambling is all about luck and with it you could shine so bright as a gambler and oh yes it is true and the three factors put together could help one as a player to be under control and also to maximise gains while putting their gambling lifestyle under a check and balance.

All these three are needed in gambling because we have to be strategic in playing, we need long and as well be disciplined when gambling so as to make everything work in the same manner we expected, as you can see they're all required to be applied in gambling because the unnecessarily needed in other to increase our chances to winning a bet when we played than when we only have one being made effective.

[Zadicar]

Don't get it twisted, gambling depends more on luck than strategy which is the main reason why you need to be a disciplined gambler to avoid addiction because no matter how long you gamble, if you're not lucky you wouldn't hit it big.

All those gamblers that believes they can get the best strategy to win their bets often end up in big losses because they were too confident in themselves. Whatever, strategy that you use to win today and tomorrow wouldn't last long. Majority of gamblers would have been millionaires if strategy is superior to luck.

Yes, i agree into this and thats why i dont really bother up that much about having those sure win even if we are dealing up with some strategic games or bets like on sports or on poker on which we know that luck factor would really be always be the main thing for you to be able to win up because no matter how good you are, no matter how sure those bets are and on how heavily you searched or analyzed or how skillful you are but if luck isnt on your side then you would definitely lose up that bet or roll. So its best that you shouldnt fixate yourself or being that too optimistic because it will really be  that giving otu that disappointment at the moment that you cant be able to have that win on what you've been expecting. Its best that you should really know on what you've been dealing on with and then you would be able to move on once you had lost. What matter most is that you wouldnt be spending into the amount that you can afford to lose as always.

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 think all three are interconnected and will be important for a gambler to have. Luck is an important aspect in some casino games. But with strategy, you might be more confident in betting, while discipline helps you manage the risks of the bets you make. Nothing is more important or better for a gambler to have; everything is important and indeed must be followed by a gambler.

If i had to say then i would say that all of them play a big part in being successful in gambling. If either one of them isnt present then it may lead to you losing money.  If a person is lucky yet not disciplined then he is destined to lose, if he is disciplined yet not lucky he might last longer than the person with luck and no discipline but still may be in net loss, but if a person has both then he is strategic and will last in gambling space. But one thing to note is that no one knows if they are lucky or not and if everyone keep gambling while not being lucky then they will lose their money so i advise to not gamble and do trading or DCA which far more secure and better

When it comes to gambling strategy doesn't matter but you must involve discipline if you want to avoid getting unpleasant results. Gambling is basically a game of luck and doesn't really involve strategy unless you are talking about sports betting, this is different because as a bettor you can increase your chances of winning if you analyze your bets but it's still not certain.

[Africolo]

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.

Well, from experience and years of gambling I can boldly say that gambling is measured from this three factors that you have mentioned and if we want to analyze them one after the other they work in line with each other because you must be lucky enough before you can win games and before that happens you as a gambler must possess some skills and knowledge in analyzing games and teams performance, one can't jump up and be gambling if you don't know anything about it.

On the other hand, if you start gambling and don't have discipline and self control you will definitely run into looses and regret why you started gambling, luck can actually make an amateur win big and he might feel it's from the tactics he used that has made him win not knowing he was just lucky. So gambling can be seen as a game of luck that requires the gambler to strategies and be disciplined while at it, the three works together for one to bet responsibly.

[Agbe]

All the three you mean are part of it. But the luck supersede the others. Using of strategy is depends on the game and not all the games in a casino uses strategy or skill. But the discipline can be applied to all the games. And luck is for all the games we are playing. It is only the strategy that is limited to some games and not all the games because slot and spin games are all well programmed for the casino and that is were the house edge come to play.

I will prioritize discipline to keep me safe and avoid unnecessary losses; some gamblers fail to do so at first and only adopt it after losing a lot of money.
Then I try to learn how to develop a good strategy so I have a chance to win. We cannot learn how to be lucky in gambling, so it's the least of my priorities. It will just come when you least expect it. The main priority and what you should think about all the time you gamble is discipline.

[Sammye3]

Luck, strategy and discipline are necessary in gambling but "luck" is what gives you the winning. What makes you closer to the winning is" strategy" and "discipline" is what keeps you winning. All these are needed to reduce losses in gambling and remain relevant.

When luck runs out, discipline is what keeps you under control to prevent further losses and minimize regrets.

Could be combination of those, and if you want to win then you need to have a bankroll and discipline. Meaning if you are already winning, then it's better to get out and withdraw it right away and don't stretch your luck. But if you are losing then it's better to stop right away so that the damage won't be big.

If you are playing luck base games like roulette and slots then obviously, you need lady luck on your side.

If you are playing games like poker or maybe black jack, then game of strategy will play a big role.

[shawonngp]

Have you made a comparison between betting and casino where luck, discipline and strategies depend or not, I think sports betting also depends on luck many times, here it is not like if you choose your favorite strong team, there is no guarantee that the team will  100% win, because you know less strong team also win the match, such incidents can also happen, you have to wait until the last minute for the result, especially in sports betting, results can change even in the last minute. Discipline is required both at the casino and the bet; the casino is luck-based, which doesn't mean you play it randomly without limit.

[Coyster]

If you play sports betting, you'd agree with me that luck plays a huge role. You could have your strategy and make analysis of the teams, their position and form, which could help you sometimes, but luck decides if you win or not. I think only when you are playing poker, that you can talk about strategy being very important. For slots, it is just about luck only.

That said, discipline is necessary as a gambler, irrespective of what you are gambling on. Discipline helps you manage your bankroll and keeps you from being a gambling addict, so every gambler ought to be disciplined.

[Finestream]

Luck can make you win, once, twice or thrice, but in order to be sustainable from long-term gambling, you need strategy and discipline to work for you. So generally, if you want to stay productive and profitable with gambling, you need to adapt all of them and utilize them smart-wise.

Luck is the core of gambling, its unpredictable foundation. Strategy is the logical framework that can lessen the house edge while increasing the profit potentials. And discipline is the guardian of the bankroll, the most crucial factor to overcome all the pressures and ensure long-term survival in gambling.

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.

It all depends on the game, since there are all kinds of games. Some games depend entirely on luck, and nothing you do will change that. Others depend on skill, and still others depend on strategy and require knowing what you're doing. And then there are games like sports that combine all three. So, the answer depends on the game. This shouldn't be confused with finance, which always requires good judgment and discipline.

You wrong and I completely disagree, but I understand that this is your opinion and you are entitled to it..

First thing is that all gambling games, name it, slot, casino, sport betting, whatever have a very important side where the gambler will have to completely depend on luck to win..
Slot and some casinos games in particular are complete luck based games for sure, but luck doesn't end wit this games only..

Move on to sports betting, this is a game that usually test your knowledge on sports, what you know, how knowledgeable or the level of your sports knowledge determines your chances of winning bets, there is no strategy here, except the strategy is about how to preserve your bankroll.. Now here is where luck comes in in sports betting as well, after you must have used your sports knowledge to bet on a game, you need to be lucky to still end up winning that bet, else you will still lose because sports is dynamic, what this means is that things can change really fast.
For example, your knowledge may suggest a team A has better players than team B and chance of Team A winning is very high, but in the field of play, things might change or team A might make a mistake that will cause team B to end up winning, meanwhile your bet is on team A to win, in situations like this, it simply means you are not lucky.
This same thing extends to other forms of gambling as well including games that are truly based on strategy.

[freedomgo]

In general, gambling can be a good combination of three, but if you are looking that way, I can sense that you are definitely gambling to earn a living, like you don't have other sources of income but gambling alone. However, no matter how skillful or strategic we are, and how disciplined as a gambler, there's no way to beat the house edge. We can only minimize it, but we can never totally eliminate it.

Personally, I would rather stick gambling as a game of luck. I can easily accept my losses because I fully understand that it's not all the time we bet we get to be lucky. But gambling as a strategy or discipline, I may have it, but I think it may take more years for me to master them.

[Akbarkoe]

In the beginning gambling is a luck-based bet whether it's horse racing or football and others, or like you and me when our favorite team meets and we bet there for the winner, without any analysis and so on just based on belief and instinct so that luck becomes a determining factor in the results of our bets.
 
The development of gambling is increasing and the gamblers are also getting better so they have to apply the mindset to betting logically so that they can win their bets from there they start calculating probability with data that they can read and research and that's where they start to understand betting strategies.
 
Discipline is an obligation it is not an option.

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.

Aside from sport bets, I just choose not to believe in strategy when it comes to gambling. You barly do much when play casino games or some people might assume that they are playing casino games using a strategy but they aren't. I will say, for me, gambling is a game of luck and discipline. Weather we like it or not, if you aren't lucky you simply can't win. Luck is not something we can buy or learn how to get, it's something that happens at will in nature. The discipline part is where your risk management comes in. At this point you must master yourself not to be too greedy or less greedy. Both plays different roles for you in your gambling activities. Even if many people choose not to believe in luck, it works regardless.
