One of the most well-known themes among gamblers is certainly luck. According to some it does not exist, according to others it is fundamental and for others it exists only when the opponent wins. But, concretely, what is luck in gambling? Luck is a match between game and destiny which seems to be incredibly present in gambling. Whoever wins in gambling is certainly skilled but, just as certainly, he is lucky. To demonstrate this sentence we will take you to the discovery of luck in the world of gambling, addressing the universes of online gambling and betting , so as to understand the real and effective weight of luck in the game.
Skeptics argue that luck does not exist, that it is all attributable to extraordinary mathematical equations and that the world of play, as well as life, responds to the ineluctability of fate. The writer, also given the experience gained in the field, absolutely does not believe in the absence of luck in life as in the game. Luck is a huge part of the game and often determines the difference between a big play and the biggest win ever. Luck can make a beginner win a game, as the famous saying goes, and can rewrite the fate of a game that seemed already lost.
According to one statistic it would seem that women are luckier than men in gambling. Some have called this "dowry" intuition, others have laughed at it and still others have tried to explain it in particularly complex ways, without however fully convincing. Certainly, when you compare the biggest wins in gaming history, Lady Luck evidently seems to be rooting for the fairer sex.
Of course, luck isn't everything . A player may be lucky but, if he doesn't know the rules of the game, he will end up losing the game. Especially for "professional" players, luck becomes an excellent ally but it cannot last indefinitely. Luck is certainly not a game strategy since, as we know, it can be ephemeral. Luck can bring the player a winning hand, a lucky combination but he cannot teach him how to play, to understand what is the right move at that moment or how to make an opponent fall into error. In a "short" moment, luck can be decisive but, to use a football metaphor, the championship is won by the strongest and not the luckiest. Obviously, there are cases where luck is the basis of everything.
Indeed, if we think of slot machines, luck would seem to predominate over other variables such as the player's skill. Likewise, the game of roulette is all about luck and the roll of a ball. In other games and even in betting , luck exists but it is helped by the knowledge of the player who can imagine the moment of form of a team, study the trends and behavior of the players and predict the final result with a good approximation. Then there are online casino games such as blackjack, poker or others that certainly need luck but only if helped by great personal skill.
