Everyone would just sit around all day and play blackjack if this were true.

Stop going to the casino fucking retard. Better to gamble in the stock market than a casino.

This.

Humans are terrible are determining probabilistic outcomes. The deck is stacked far more against you than believe, yet you ride a high of confidence until it's too late.

Do people actually believe that they have a reasonable chance of winning money over time at a casino?

How do they think casinos stay in business?
>>
if the casino has a 0.5% edge it seems like its almost fair.

This isnt the case because the casinos funds are much larger than your own and once you are broke you cant continue.

You failed because you viewed a casino as an opportunity for profit rather than a place that you exchange currency for fun.

A lot of unintelligent people go to the casino with the idea that they will win money. Whenever they actually do win money it reinforces that idea in their heads, whenever they lose money they just cast it as a bad day

idk I have heard of people playing profitably, I think it is the game with the best odds? (something like 49/51?) one technique I have heard is simply doubling every previous bet

>>27591449
Are you trying to use a Martingale system against the casino?

It only works if you have infinite money, a no limit table, and an amount at which you will walk away.

You create your own luck.

True, playing the 1 dollar craps table with friends is pretty fun, especially if you're at a place that serves free drinks. If everyone ends up winning it makes for a pretty decent night. If everyone loses- well you cant have lost that much on a 1 dollar table.

This explains why even though I don't gamble casinos still end up with way too much of my money. I have a hard time saying no to fun.

I have no idea how to put money on stock market and i feel like you only make a profit if you put a decent amount of money in. I am 20 years old that lives with his parents so you get the picture.

>>27591640
Its not fun to lose money.

You can probaby read a bunch of investing websites and get a good idea of how the market works. I'm probably talking out of my ass but there are a lot of stocks that pay significant dividends so that you get free money just for owning the stock, and if the stock goes up you obviously get more money that way.

Hyenas are probably better ate determining probabilistic outcomes tbqh senpai

>>27591658
That's called Martingaling, and it's bullshit. Blackjack is a solved and theoretically profitable game, but the profit margins are terribly thin and you could always get an unlucky streak and go broke. Google the term "risk of ruin".

>>27591449

Maybe you should stop gambling, you dumb fuck.
