Learn
How to Be a Winner First
by Jacob Kanzen
Whatever
your gambling activity, below are my three best gambling tips for the general
punter or bettor, in order of importance that I consider essential in your
quest for success. The result of over 30 years' gambling experience.
Call them punter tips, gambling tips or golden rules. Stick to them and you
will probably be a winner, stay a winner and enjoy gambling for a long time
to come with no pain and no regrets.
-
Gamble
money you can afford to lose. If you need the money, don't gamble.
-
Gamble
half of what you are willing to risk. This way, if you don't win, you
will give yourself a second chance, another day.
-
Don't
be greedy. If you lose what you have just won, you are.
Gambling can be a form of entertainment if handled with the right attitude.
A good approach is to aim to win but to also be prepared to lose - and lose
only the amount you planned to risk on that day. In other words, you have to
accept the fact that you cannot force a winning outcome and you cannot win every
time.
There
are many devised gambling systems or methods aimed at overcoming the odds to
give you an edge to make you a winner, but don't expect to systematically play
your way to riches off the casinos. Apart from card counting at blackjack or
applying the Martingale System with no maximum bet limit, all forms of gambling
are conditioned by luck, and an astute gambler should make allowance for that.
The
casinos have an in-built mathematical advantage on virtually every game and
no mathematical betting system can overcome that. On the other hand, the player
practically makes all the playing decisions including when to quit. Depending
how you make those decisions will determine how successful or otherwise you
are.
The
casinos are there to let you have a shot at their money and they will have a
shot at yours too at the same time. Have a planned betting strategy. Discipline
yourself too. Limit your losses and control your winnings. Stick to your planned
bankroll limit if you lose and don't be greedy if you win. Walk before you run.
Rather than aiming to win a specific amount of money, learn how to be a winner
first by a small margin - any small margin. Not easy.
