Do you allow yourself to bet on ridiculous things?
Like in sports betting, do you sometimes just bet on an option that has very low chances of actually happening but seems fun to bet on at the time? Some people might do it for fun but what would be amazing is if it actually happened and you won.
Gambling comes in with lucks and in different forms, because we may find out that some bet we took and never know much about the games involved turned to be a winning one, while the ones we may expect to come as a win may can eventually turned a failed attempt, just that, the level of risk in playing unfamiliar games and most of us couldn't afford to increase the chances of losing by this, that is why we often go by the games we know well.
But there is an interesting point, for example, we do not want to dive into unfamiliar games, although if we do not try them, we will never know whether we will be successful in them or not. In general, it is necessary to try all the games to understand what we like most of them, as well as where we can show good results. I would find the game in which these 2 conditions are met and play only it until I get bored. One thing I know for sure is that I would not play poker now, because until we begin to understand a lot, professionals will beat us for a very long time.
