How to become a better gambler

Alan — Sun, 10 Jul 2011 09:48:24 +0000

The gambling world is full of people who just throw down hard earned money without thinking about what they are doing. Are you one of those people who will just go with the flow? If so, you are most likely a losing gambler or you are not winning as much money as you could be. There are three main factors that make up every successful gambler: money management, value and knowledge. This article will take a look at all these of these areas and help you become a sharp gambler.

Money Management

Itís amazing how many people gamble and donít think, for even one second, about money management. You wouldnít go on a trip without thinking about what you want to do right? Then why gamble without a goal? When you go on a trip, is your goal to simply go on a trip? Of course itís not. You at least decide on a destination, time of stay and so forth.

Before you gamble, you should have some goals in mind. Hereís a quick list of a couple goals you want to define.

1.What is your total bankroll for the gambling session?
2.If I am ahead $X, I will leave.
3.If I lose X% of my bankroll, I will leave or I will leave once my bankroll is gone.
4.I will devote most of my time to playing [ insert game ].
5.While playing [ insert game ], my average bet will be around $x.

Defining these five goals will help you keep organized and focused.

Value

The sharp gambler stay way from bets that are for suckers. He or she is only concerned with getting good value. Hereís a list of key bets and activities to stay away from.

1.Slot Machines ñ The payback percentage is poor.
2.Roulette ñ Huge house advantage.
3.Proposition bets in Craps.
4.Parlay cards in sports betting that contain a large amount of selections.
5.The insurance bet in Blackjack.
6.The tie bet in Baccarat.
7.Caribbean Stud Poker, which has a large house advantage.
8.Bingo

Thereís no law against playing the above items from time to time, but you have to do it in moderation and not make these items part of your main betting activities.

Sport betting handicap option explained for beginners

Itís a conundrum that many ATS fortune hunters face. Sports gambling can be a great leisurely activity for all, but for the well-versed sports prophesier, it can be a lucrative enterprise.

Having twice Chaired international searches for elite sports handicappers, once as GM of Freescoreboard, the first toll-free coast-to-coast scorephone network and than at OffshoreInsiders.com, widely accepted as the foremost handicapping site, I can tell you the quality sports handicappers are few and far between.

There are sharpies and wise guys who do make a lot of money sports gambling, but it takes the ability to both line-shop and forebode the outcome of games to make it profitable.

While my clientsí line-tracking skills are their own, the most important doomsday machine that an odds protÈgÈe can harbor is knowing the right sides and totals to monitor. As the musician was told on the way to Carnegie Hall, the only solution is practice, practice, and practice.

Let there be no doubt that there are a limited number of qualified professional handicapping experts and we have several of the elite few on OffshoreInsiders.com. Unfortunately the consumer is forced to ferret through the much more commonplace coin flippers with a grandiloquent sales pitch before unearthing the maestro confidants.

Too often desperate gamblers are clay pigeons for a windbag who talks the talk, but cannot walk the walk. Sometimes the other extreme happens. Ironically so many clients thinking they are suave patrons fall prey to the wolves in sheepís clothing.

They are bamboozled into thinking virtuous means a virtuoso. It befuddles me how these people are the most easily hoodwinked considering how they present themselves as the more discriminating shoppers of sports investment advisors.

I have seen on Internet posting boards for example gamblers assign credibility to handicappers using the bottom rung criterion of merely admitting to losing days. Any huckster can merely come clean on heads covering when he picked tails. Professional gamblers can only sneer at such easily mislead gamblers who keep the bookmakers in business for the rest of us.

The History of Gambling

Mon, 15 Nov 2010 13:26:09 +0000

Archeologists were the first ones to find evidence of gambling behaviors in actual cavemen when they recovered dice-like objects that dated back over 41000 years ago that were made up animal bones. They also found cave paintings that depicted our ancestors performing gambling like behaviors. They even found pairs of dice that dated back to the Roman Empire. In fact during a period in Roman times it was required for parents to have their kids learn how to gamble. If this law were passed during modern times parents would be at an uproar over it, so in this aspect The roman empire was very liberal. In fact it was purported that ancient Roman soldiers actually gambled for the robes of Jesus.
Evidence of gambling was even found over 4000 years ago in the chinese culture. Their game of chance was developed by using actual riles. The ancient Greeks were the most perplexing when it came to their gambling behaviors. Although Greek soldiers loved to gamble with dice games, Greek society for some reason made gambling illegal. For a very liberal society as the Greeks this behavior always puzzled me.
As far as American gambling history the first gambling establishments back in early American times were called saloons. These saloons were not only important as hot gambling spots but they were a great place where weary travelers coming from all over the country could meet and make friends. In essence these saloons had started to become social areas where people could make long lasting bonds and associations for life. During the early part of the 20th century the American government for some reason felt that gambling should be banned so they made it so by passing a series of laws. In 1931 however, the government decided to make a compromise on this by making gambling legal in 2 states: Nevada and New Jersey. This is how these 2 states became famous gambling hubs with Atlantic City and Las Vegas leading the way.

Roulette Gambling System – Twisted Statistics

Thu, 21 Oct 2010 19:22:52 +0000

Ever since I was a young student I have loved casinos – I love the glitz and glamor. Every face tells a story in these places and I imagine everyone is fantastically rich. Of course the truth is probably a very different story. My friend recently announced he’d found a roulette gambling system that would make lots of money in casinos but I had to stop him before he set off for Monte Carlo with his building society savings.
What my friend had discovered was called the ‘Monte Carlo’ or ‘Gamblers’ fallacy – I think you can notice the pertinent part of the name. This incredible roulette gambling system is based on the false premise that if you witness a series of deviations from the mean that these deviations will be balanced out by opposite deviations. So to put that into English if you watch a roulette game and notice that a red number comes up five times on a row then it becomes more statistically likely that black will come up on the next spin.
This of course makes sense logically (as something you might expect or be ‘due’) but mathematically it is incorrect. Each spin is an independent event and all previous spins have no bearing on the next spin. This mathematical fallacy is also the basis of another much touted roulette gambling system called the Martingale system. I’m sure anyone who has ever been to a casino has heard this one – you put your stake on say a red number coming up and then if you fail you keep doubling your stake until you win.

The first casino was opened in 1942 on the Las Vegas strip. However, by 1992 all of those casinos in Las Vegas were demolished so that new era of modern casinos can be built up.
A casino is a house that facilitates the people to deal with certain kinds of gambling activities.

Lucky me

So are all gambling games really gamblign, or is there any strategy that can lead to profits?

In poker having lucky cards results from deliberate and strategic hard work and planning. At least this is what the profitable players think. People do not get lucky on their own. They become lucky when they know how to attract chance, and that is what they must do if they want skill to attract luck. This is the way poker is, as unexpected luck may obscure the fact that skills are needed in poker. This is so in other games as well. But in poker, luck is so big it is dangerous. It has been said that the more chance is on your side when you start, the less money in your pocker, as you take bad habits.

If you play games of luck at an online casino like Go Casino, then you know that every player appreciates some luck, and would want to have more than his fair share. But, getting too much of it is actually the opponent of a poker player. A donk player wins a pot and we believe that he has too much luck to get it. A new player does not open up, always call large bets, makes unbelievably bad plays, and so on. A donk can hope to get miraculous cards at any time. So, they are considered to so much luckier then other players. They have different ways of obtaining luck from the good players..

Excellent players on the contrary do not need luck for profit. They always seek to make the mathematically superior move. So it could look like they are lucky for example when they hit their nuts flush draw after betting heavily, but if this was a three way bet they had a positive expected value on their draw. They played the right way and got lucky when needed, but they are profitable not because they have more luck than others, but because they always know the best way to play each hand.

So if you want to make profits at online poker, make sure you master the strategy before risking serious money.
