Psychological part of gambling - how big it is?

Hey, I want to start a discussion about smth that many people don't believe in - the psychological when gambling.

I will tell u a story I will always remember - I use to work at land-based casinos in my country for like 10 years and I have been through the lowest to almost highest possible position there, so, I mean saw almost all possible styles of gambling people.

I can conclude 1 thing (on the side that the casino always wins) - we all should play for fun!!!

The Story - we had players, a couple around 60 years old, very polite, good-looking for the years, I mean intelligent people. So, they were coming like 1-2 times per month and always playing poker (Caribbean, Russian or texas ultimate) and to be honest (I haven't counted how many times they were winning) I believe they were winning like 7-8-9 times from 10 (my experience shows that is opposite). So, once I was a dealer and asked him: "hey, I believe that u are winning more than usual, I mean how the f*uck u are doing it so?" He smiled and said: "hey, I am not here to win money, I am here to relax from my everyday"

WOW, this guy do not think about the money when was coming to the casino...

Frankly, I was trying this strategy many times but looks like it is not enough just to think about it but to accept such an attitude at the casino at 110%

Guys, what do u think about it - can we win more often at the casino if we play for fun (in that case we will have to play not for the big money in my eyes)?
 



 

 
Hello there! I win the most and more often when I least expect it and don't think about money and just have fun and relax. But also know at the same time that I have won when I believed very much that I will win. However it is, it's probably a combination and timing of the feeling, intuition and belief in some way, that's how it feels to me

u see, u only confirming my thoughts - perhaps u are very right about combination of having fun and true believer in the win (which sound strange but who knows...)
