I am curious to know if someone continually invested a lot of time in studying a game involved in gambling, further if he had played the game a lot to understand the intricacies involved, then can we call him an expert in that gambling game?
Hardwork per say mostly works in situations were there is a guarantee of achieving similar result if previous steps are been repeated over and over again but since in gambling entirely, your previous success doesn't guarantee future results (succes), hardwork then doesn't have much role to play but can still be useful as hardwork does brings about experience which is an advantage in some specific games like sport betting etc.
