6 misconceptions about gambling
“If I keep playing my luck will turn sooner or later”
False: whenever you’re playing again the odds are exactly like the previous games
“I almost won: this means that the next time I will win”
False: getting close to winning, does not mean that you are going to win: the outcome of the next game is not influenced by having almost won previously.
“While I’m playing, if I hold a lucky object, cross my fingers, etc., my odds for winning will increase”
False: the outcome of the bet NEVER depend on superstitious rituals that use while playing.
“My knowledge and my skills in the game help increase my odds of winning”
False: in games of chance (such as Scratch-off, National Lottery, and other Lotteries), the ability of the player cannot influence the outcome of the game in any way.
“Winnings and losses tend to occur in cycles”
False: Gaming winnings and losses do not have a cyclical nature.
“I am particularly good at choosing successful “winning” places (betting shops, betting rooms, etc.)
False: there is no such thing as more successful “winning” places than other places. The fact that there has been a big win in a betting shop does not mean that there will be another, whether big or small, in the future.
