yes, this is the point!
the house edge plays a huge role when it comes to luck vs skill games

I think the same that knowing the game could give you an edge on sports betting
but probably a really small edge since there are so many variables, what do you think?

The edge depends on how skillful the gambler is, even a small advantage could already make a person profitable. In general, I consider sports betting as a skilled based type of game, but if a gambler does not have knowledge of the particular sports he is betting, or even just a small knowledge only, then it should not fall to the skilled based classification on his level.

I would say poker also involves skills because player can win the game even if they don't have better combination of cards by convincing the opponent to give up, and the strategies are unlimited in card games probably a math genius can keep winning the particular games. Cheesy

Reminds of movie 21. That’s the name of movie, just 21! The professor select bright MIT students who are capable of solving maths at an amazing skill sets and teaches them how to play the blackjack. These maths guys are so clever that they can calculate in their back of mind what type of card and pair is going to be their in the deck of card. They study the whole thing while playing the game and keep winning huge amounts of money.

They fly to Las Vegas and loot the Casino like hell man. All of that based on the maths calculation. I am not sure if this is possible with the online casino but if it is then they are rich.

In real life, such miracles does not happen. You cannot win huge amount of money consistently from the casinos as they algorithm won't let you win always. Yeah, sometimes you can win big but it is not on your skill based but usually it is luck based. But don't ever dream of looting the casino in
reality. Cheesy

Unfortunately Mathematical calculations play a very little role in gambling wins.
