It's the individual circumstances of each player that lead them to believe they can easily profit from gambling. It's not the casino's fault, as casinos themselves are a developed business, so their advertising and marketing are natural. However, many people believe this, hoping their lives will improve if they win big. Unfortunately, instead of winning, their behavior actually makes things even more difficult.

Beginners often find it easy to win or win easily.
I think this is a myth, and I hope it's completely dispelled. The reality is that winning isn't easy, whether for those who gamble strategically or purely by luck. A friend of mine who's currently enjoying gambling is always looking for new casinos because he thinks he'll win easily if he gambles with a new account. This is ridiculous and doesn't always work, even if it's only occasionally, it doesn't mean it's true. What we have to understand is that casinos are also looking for profits, so their chances of winning are greater than the players', so of course the casino is the host who will always win and no player can beat the casino, especially in the long run.

As long as people believe that they can beat the casino, the casino will prosper. This is the same fantasy as the belief in talismans, sorcerers, fortune tellers, mediums and other wizards. The casino is a business built on the belief in unbounded luck, or the ability to predict probabilities, but this is all just a myth. The most mature attitude to the game as an opportunity to have fun, try on the role of a "rebel", feel more risky and an adventurer, and this needs to be understood, then the game will be perceived differently.
