If someone becomes successful in sports betting over the long run, would you say that’s because of luck or skill?
There’s been a debate in the forum, some believe that gambling success is purely luck, that no real skill is involved, and that it’s not something to take seriously because eventually, you’ll lose. But there are bettors who have consistently made profit and proven they can win in the long run, believe it or not.
So the question is, can we still call that luck? Or is that already skill at work?
First of all, what are you betting on? If you bet on your luck without checking anything, then it will be completely based on luck. And if you are a real gambler, then he will never bet on luck. They will first look at the situation, they will bet on the game, they will first see which team has the best players, and then they will bet. Yes, it depends on the situation and their own skills. But I think that for an inexperienced person, betting depends on luck, but for an experienced person, betting is a combination of their skills and experience.
