But when I play dice, for example, I normally set it at 50%. The fun that comes from there is that out of that equal chances of winning and losing, if you turn out a winner, that somehow gives you a feeling that you are lucky. And since you (perhaps) love the metaphysical approach, it gives you the feeling that the universe is on your side. And that is fun; it gives you a light feeling

But that's what I'm talking about. You understandably feel good, but what is that feeling good made of? If you get the feeling that the universe is on your side, doesn't it mean that you are controlling your chances, i.e. things bending to your will and happening how you envisage them?

I guess that feeling was made of your pride, on how much you wanted to win and as much you don't want to lose, it is all about the satisfaction we feel every time we achieved what we wanted, when it goes all well according to our plan. Maybe we called it all "Luck" but it is more than that, it is deeper beyond our talents so we can't believe we made it, sometimes.

And we could also called it "happiness" or "bliss" which is the extreme satisfaction we got in our life that cause us too much good feelings towards something.
