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.
Handwork and luck are two different things. If you know of certain work and by doing it you will be rewarded, in that case the handwork pay off. the more you work hard, the more benefit you get. This is not true for gambling which depends upon on luck. A person spending full time in gambling is not guarantee to win and get more benefit.
