Does patient applicable to gambling?

[boyptc]

Depends on the interpretation of the gambler. Because there's a possibility that it's over romanticized by a gambler and that's why there's the wrong interpretation about it.

While being patient pays off in all aspect of life. There's a misunderstanding if it's going to be done in gambling in the wrong manner.

Like you wait for one big bet and you're so patient about it and you have no idea if that bet will win.

Patience is very important in many areas of our life but gambling is different because there is no guarantee that waiting longer will eventually brings profits, if someone keeps losing for years it makes more sense to reassess their method instead relying things will suddenly change. Sometimes taking a break doesn't mean giving up sometime it's the smartest decisions that time money can be useful to build other income sources or learn new pattern.

Above all, being patient should be a special quality for gamblers because you have to decide when to stop gambling and when to keep gambling.

If you take your betting decision patiently and take your time, there is less chance of making a mistake. If you make a decision in a hurry, there is no time to analyze and bet properly. If someone waits for an opportunity to choose a match that suits his advantage, then even if he cannot win that particular match, he will not suffer additional losses by betting on unnecessary matches. Even betting on his favorite match can be enjoyed very well. Many gamblers think that they have to bet on any match regularly every day. When this becomes a habit, they want to bet even if it is not the match of their favorable team. Which can cause losses. To get out of this habit, you should try to give a gap of one or two days in the beginning. And later, when someone can control himself, he will wait for the perfect match and bet through deep analysis.

Based on your statement, I would say no. Unfortunately, gambling is not like trading or other jobs and skills that can be improved through patience and hard work, where you eventually see the fruit of your labor. Gambling is all about luck, and there is no way we can improve our luck no matter how many years we spend gambling.

Think about it, if it were just about patience, then many of us would already be profitable in gambling by now.

Yes, it's different in gambling.

Sometime it can help but sometimes, it's not.

I agree that if we're exhausted as we gamble, taking a break is the right decision to do it.

Many gamblers don't seem to take a break when they're in a losing streak and that's why they lose more because, they chase more.

Please, try to get my points as I am trying to drive something from this post, though it may actually sound different from the usual way you may know; as they said patient is very important to everything we are doing, now I would want to know how long would you keep having patients while gambling and if you don't make the expected amount for around 1-3 years do you think you should keep gambling or stop? Whereas, as it is said patient is virtue and through patient you could be able to achieve whatever you want. But then again, does it mean it's only patients we need to become a successful gambler?

You can drop your argument, let see what it would results and those who strictly believe that patient is virtue.

If you are gambling because you have a specific target to meet up then just have it in mind that you will ne disappointed. Gambling is unpredictable and it makes sense when you are not expecting anything.  Their is no need to exercise patience when you are already have an expectation in Gambling because if eventually you dont get what you want you will end up disappointed for gambling  and waiting. Patience is best when you dont expect anything you just only have patience to win and not having a specific amount in your mind.

Yes we all know that a gambler must be patient at all times in other to avoid much losses so that they must always spend what they can afford to lose/their budget, but most times doesn't work the way we have always expected it to be .
Life is always a teacher and those that are not patient always ends up regretting their actions, in gambling you don't rush your games in other to use avoid addiction.

Your own definition of patient Is quite different from the one we are talking about, what you're explaining here is break or Self exclusion. When you loss too much in gamble to avoid Lossing more money you have to take self exclusion but that's by the way. Back to the context, although I can't possibly say that patient is not applicable to gamble because most of the successful gamblers was patient enough even when they were Lossing and Thier luck came one faithful day. I'm sure they didn't know that they will become successful they just have this believe that some day they will win.

The most important thing when gambling is be patient in order to keep your money safe. Player who lose money do so because they start out playing without taking into account the repercussions. As far as I am concerned this game is deceitful always, and patience is momentarily a protective cloak. You stop following money in luck forever, true peace comes upon you. You will never live a peaceful life whereby you keep on gambling at the table depending on luck.

Patience doesn't guarantee winning in gambling, you could be patient to wait for a game and when you finally bet on the game, you will still lose it, so patient is not a ticket to success in gambling, luck is what can help you. Normally gambling is a game of win or lose, so it's not possible that someone will gamble for a whole 3 years without winning, just that you would not be successful but you will keep repeating the circle of win or lose.

To be able to win then luck helps us as you said with patience itself more on our own security, I think with good patience then we can avoid big losses because sometimes someone who gambles with impatience tends to lose self-control and experience big losses.

Success with gambling is almost impossible, although some cases there are those who managed to get a big win but it is still far from the word success. So you are right in saying that we will often be in a cycle of winning and losing.

I’m sure there are gamblers like that, but those who gamble with the goal of making money should have chosen to stop when they hadn’t made any money for a long time. Gambling isn’t an investment you can patiently wait on. 
But some gamblers might see it as entertainment, so losing in the long run isn’t a big deal. Because after all, if you tally up all your gambling expenses, you might still end up losing. Enjoy it when you win, don’t be too disappointed when you lose.

It is not even good for one to approach gambling with the mindset to make money out of it, as it won't work like that and instead of them to ruin their lives for the sake to satisfy their urge in gambling, they are to stop or quit gambling from further damage or better still call for help, if they find it hard to quit gambling, doing the necessary adjustments helps and protect them from being bankrupt or into something harmful that will affect their moods and their relationships, which they will feel disappointed because the game will not be going the way it should.

Patience really helps in life and in almost every task we do. But does it really help in gambling? According to me, as you mentioned in the OP, gambling isn’t about making guaranteed money. You said that we have to be patient and that we can make money within 1–3 years. However, I think this mindset is wrong, and simply being patient won’t help you achieve that.

Winning money in gambling is mostly about luck. So, no matter how long you wait or how patient you are, if luck isn’t on your side, you may not be able to make money even after many years.

However, patience does play a role. It helps you avoid gambling too frequently and encourages you to wait for the right opportunity and the right game to bet on. So yes, patience is very important when it comes to gambling habits, but to win and make money, luck is equally important.

[Achalugo BTC]

I know that not everybody have the patience to wait for when they are going to gamble and make money.
Gambling is not that profitable for all gamblers and those that are patient can end up getting a jackpot with more attempts.
Luck comes to us when we don't expect and it's good to understand how long it can take us to be profitable.

Patience in gambling can work two sides ways, either positive or negative, the positive side, one can be lucky to win the jackpot even after much trying while negative side, the more one exercise patience with the hope to win big or jackpot can make them to lose control and take the wrong path, which can lead them to financial mistakes and other things that will affect their lives badly. Which is why gamblers ought to gamble and enjoy the fun in the game.

Patience is important in every aspect of life, but being patient in gambling does not guarantee that you will become a successful gambler. Patience is a way to control yourself, but gambling for a long time is not patience. You will almost certainly lose most bets. If you continue to gamble even after losing, it will only increase your losses and you will become addicted.

Taking a break is a wise decision and is a form of patience.

You can drop your argument, let see what it would results and those who strictly believe that patient is virtue.

Patience is a virtue, not just in gambling, but in general. When it comes to gambling specifically, someone who is patient enough will first study the mathematics of gambling – particularly the house edge – and learn to distinguish between games where there is a house edge and skill-based games, where there isn’t one. In both cases, being patient is crucial, but someone who is extremely patient would probably not play games where there is a house edge, except for lottery-style games where there is a progressive jackpot and therefore the potential return is greater than the stake (it would have a positive expected value).

[fruktik]

no, patience does not improve results but sometimes patience allows you to calmly wait for the right moment
For example, in poker patience is very useful, when you have to fold hands that you would like to play, because you want to play and not look and wait for the right hand... here patience is really needed!

Well, I have to agree about poker. In all other cases, patience brings nothing concrete or positive. It's a waste of time. For example, I love playing slots. How will patience help me in this process? Not at all. Only luck and fortune are needed here, and everything else is irrelevant.

There was a time when I decided to change my playing strategy. I reduced the bet to the minimum and waited for the results. And what? Nothing? It's the same as losing money, only it took much longer. So what's the point of all this?

Yeah right, if that patience convert to a lust and desire to win chances that mismanagement may take place, I mean patience is good in terms of waiting for the perfect timing and if luck permits you may win decently, but like what you said, if that patience becomes obsession to win big, things can go wrong as it leads to push for more instead of quitting or stopping and accept whatever the outcome.

As we may know it often said that patient is a virtue and of course I believe that with patient you should be able to achieve whatever you want through consistency.

I am wondering what patience will do for you as a gambler, can we call gambling restrictions the work of patience? Or control? It's when you invest money in something that you need patience to see your investment become fruitful.

It's when you are into trading that you need patience for your order to become active and also for your target to hit and you take profit, gambling isn't like any of these, gambling is instant result, there is no waiting.

Even in sport bets once the match is on you can't pause it, you wait till the match is over and get your final results, patience isn't helping here at all, what you need in gambling is total control over your mind and your pocket.

Like you wait for one big bet and you're so patient about it and you have no idea if that bet will win.

That's so rediculus, because you never can tell when such big win may come. What if it means waiting for enternity, perhaps that's how you practically keep on losing money for God knows when. However, I don't buy the idea of matching this whole patient thing anywhere close to gamble because it just a kind of killing yourself by your own self and I can't fall into such mess.

Then that’s the downside of gambling. The uncertainty of winning big is always there that’s gambler patiently trying until they hit someday.

I think patience can be applicable by maintaining your bet on level that still you can afford to lose so that even losing in the long run will not give you a financial disaster.

It’s no pain no gain but it’s important to do it responsibly.
