Can discipline itself make gambling consistently profitable?

[Johnlomape]

Discipline won't make you consistently profitable in gambling, it simply helps you manage your money and reduces the risk that you'll blow through your money too quickly. After all, consistent profits in gambling are pretty much impossible to achieve, since gambling is all about probability and luck. Therefore, it's impossible for anyone to keep making consistent profits in the long run, unless they have a loophole they can exploit to their advantage.

You are making a lot of sense here and I hope the newbies would take these words very seriously and not think that once they are disciplined, they are not going to be making any mistakes again as gamblers and profits will be flowing in.
Being a disciplined gambler will help us lose less money to betting instead for the gambler to go bankruptcy after betting with the whole fund in the bankroll. The earlier we understand that being disciplined is a tool that reduces how much we are supposed to lose, the earlier we are going to take discipline seriously and add risk management to our betting strategies.

Discipline doesn’t and won’t give you consistent profit, your luck, analysis, strategy.. is actually responsible for that but the consistent part is mostly tied with your luck.

Discipline can help you manage your  loss but it won’t stop you from losing either .. yet you’re being force to quit a session that could have incurred more loss on your account early without any further attempts .

With discipline, you can beat addiction [by not getting addicted at all]..

Discipline is essential in  gambling.

Agreed, discipline doesn't affect results, but being disciplined will minimize losses, if you gamble 1 dollar every week, whether you win or lose, you will stay within that circle because of your discipline, but if you are not disciplined you will be tempted to gamble beyond that limit. So discipline is an important part of gambling.

The main purpose of discipline isn't profitability; the main focus of discipline is to help you manage gambling risks. We do not need to be reminded that gambling is very risky and, if not controlled, can result in greater risks that may be detrimental to our general well-being.

If discipline were about profitability, many gamblers wouldn't find it difficult to stay disciplined because they know it would help them win, and they would go after it. The problem is that being extremely disciplined limits how far they should gamble and how much they can potentially win. That is why some go to the extent of staking very high amounts of money and paying so much attention to gambling. That may bring them good money, but it is not a good thing to do.

So, I can say that for a game like gambling, "the higher your risks, the higher your chances of profitability."

Discipline can contribute to long term profits but not consistently. I don't believe there is any common strategy that profers consistent winning actually.
If discipline has posed the credibility of consistent winning, I'm sure there'll be this regularity that majority of gamblers will flip on the very page with the expectations of making profits consistently but it's not always like that.
Discipline will only help you to stay consistent as you gambles strictly according to how you've already scheduled your times and money without going contrary to your plans. The only attachment it has with winning is the ideology that you'd win in the long term when the odds are hard in the short term.

[Myleschetty]

Discipline while gambling can save you from big losses. The more disciplined a gambler is, the easier it is for him to gamble. But discipline can never affect the gambler's mathematical calculations. That is, the control of winning or losing in betting is never on discipline.

Discipline does not make gambling easy, but it does protect gamblers from the traps that typically lead to their pitfalls and give them the opportunity to continue gambling in the long run. You stated that it has no control over overall gambling wins and losses, and I agree because the gambling house's edge advantage and knowledge of how profitable gambling must be taken into account.

Yes, it helps us with the loss but not make us profitable. If one thinks that they are just betting consistently so they can win more over the course of time then it is wrong and no one should have that impression if they want to save their money. They can gamble everyday too but if they know and can stay within their limits then it will be good for them.

I wish more people don't be stupid and greedy, so they can save themselves from making bad financial decisions that also avoid the bad reputation on the term the gambling itself.

What i believe is in reality discipline only helps you execute decisions more cleanly but it does not change the odds . If the game has a negative expected value strict rules may reduce impulsive losses  but they do not turn a losing system into a winning one or against the odds. With the passage of time outcomes are still governed by probability and  a house edge. That is why even highly disciplined players can experience long term losses if the math is against them. So discipline matters but only within the limits of what the underlying system actually allows or if we see deeply its like are we managing risk or just managing losses better.  May be i was wrong but this is what i observe .

Not really, you only discipline yourself on how your funds should be properly managed when gambling  and how to control emotions so that a don't exceed your budgeted target

Profit in gambling depends mainly on luck and nothing else because it is very difficult to gamble and be profitable since the wins are not guaranteed . No matter how ow disciplined you are, you cannot be profitable it only minimizes risk.

[Natalim]

Having discipline will not make you win and become consistently profitable from gambling, but its luck instead. Discipline can only make you a responsible gambler all throughout your gambling journey, and can help you avoid consistent and unwanted losses, but it will never guarantee a gambler from winning its bets.

However, long term winners may also be said disciplined gamblers, but that's just one of those necessary requirements to be consistently profitable, discipline alone will not make you win, but with luck alone winning is highly possible.

[Fiasem20]

A gambler's discipline has nothing to do with the outcome of the games that they play, what determines wins in gambling is basically luck, even in sports bet that requires a level of skills still requires luck to win. What discipline does for a gambler is to keep them in check so that they won't over gamble by chasing loses and spending more time than necessary in a casino.

Exactly,the outcome of a game/bet doesn’t depend on your act of discipline rather by luck.And consistent profits could be in the dream and not reality,because casinos wouldn’t be so stupid to allow their customers to win always,they’re after their profits so the house edge is always against the player.I am not trying to say that winning is impossible in the gambling market it is very much possible to win but not consistently.So it’s better you develop the act of discipline in other to stay on the right track and become a responsible gambler.

No, there is no such theory that discipline in gambling makes you consistent in winning, there are no guarantees in gambling because discipline means you set a budget limit so as not to overdo it.

With discipline you probably won't lose a lot of money and still keep it under control, especially in this time when there are many matches that continue to take place every day, if you continue to place betting tickets without stopping you will lose a lot, so with discipline you shouldn't bet continuously.

[Cassius55]

Like other say, in gambling there is not a discipline, and if you impose a discipline to yourself it's duration it is until you start to win, at this point a chemical system of your body called dopamine, start to circulating in your bloods cell and you are totally satisfied and you want win again, again and again. At this point you put your pocket in the slot machine and ruined your discipline. Profitable is only luck.

Now you are sounding like someone who has tested the both side? Which test like all the pains and bitterness in it…I think over the years I have watched many newbie gamblers come and do say if there are disciplined they might start winning… but they really have fails to understand that gambling those not even work half way like that…Remember been disciplined those not even make the betting inns flips let get that into the head…

The house edges stays on that same part nothing is changed about it that just the truth of the matter, I think you have cleared the air by saying what discipline only does is by reducing the amount of stake and too much of lost…

[yixichloro2xx]

Discipline cannot guarantee someone to be  profitable in gambling. Gambling is a game of luck, it doesn't require any sort of sure winning strategy. Where discipline plays some role in gambling is through self control or limit like you said. It what prevent someone from over gambling or wasting their money or chasing losses and also it prevents someone from using funds meant for daily needs. Without discipline someone will just keep gambling and can lead to addiction. Gambling isn't something that someone will choose to be consistent with, it's very wrong.  It should be done once in a while to avoid unnecessary emotional damage.

When you transition from a casual player into someone who thinks like an actuary or a financial trader, traditional banking and traditional sportsbooks become a massive hindrance. Bitcoin-betting is the infrastructure built for players who understand the cold, hard math of the game:

You are right, discipline can’t change the odds and can’t increase your possibility if winning a game, it will only gives you control over your emotions sometimes, and it also give you guidance on how  to use your funds be it on betting or even how to manage it when you have won money from betting.

The only discipline you can give your self if you want avoid losing money to betting is to limit the rate at which you bet, but if you believe that discipline will limit the rate at which you gamble. You should just limit your gambling if you want to make profit, but consistency in gambling will not solve the problem.

[Maslate]

The most reliable factor that I know that would make us consistently profitable with gambling is through generating positive expected value while going into strict bankroll management. Discipline itself is not enough and won't make you profitable with gambling, but staying consistently discipline will help you achieve risk mitigation and capital preservation which are very essentials for a gambler not to experience financial ruin.

However, discipline can make you successful in the long run but never consistently profitable, it serves different meaning.
