| Take The Chance - Gambling Man |
Movies and other forms of media have really made a difference in our perceptions of gambling and the excitement (or lack thereof) that accompany it. While movies and TV shows will have us believe that excitement and a constant wave of winnings is the accepted norm in a casino environment, nothing could be further from the truth. Real gamblers, the kind that make their living by understanding the games and stacking the odds in their favor, are typically very calm and detached players, who do not allow the game to effect their emotions or moods. One common misunderstanding about this topic is that many players try to play it "cool" when they feel the emotions getting the best of them, but their activity is anything but that. This behavior is known as the degenerate gambler, a status that you want to avoid.

Rather than become victim to such behaviors, it is best to focus and hone your skills into learning the game and improving you sophistication of gambling cycles and procedures. Just like a lawyer or surgeon wouldn't walk into court or an operating room without thoroughly investigating every detail involved, neither should a Gambling Man simply sit down at a table and hope for the best. He must understand the game, understand the casino, and most importantly, have an understanding of the other players, at least on a basic level. There is nothing worse than being the 2nd best person at the table, since that just means you are giving everything to the person who is #1, and that should be you.

Another point to ponder that many casino's don't want you to know is that certain games are more geared for winning and other are simply geared to excitement combined with taking your money. It is best to avoid the money loosing attempts and to focus solely on the ones that enable you to win, even if they are making you win on purpose with the sole intention of making others around you more eager to gamble. It is far preferable that the casino uses you to make an example of a winner, as opposed to just taking your money.
While casino's always make money and will continue to do so, there are still always individuals who win big (and tell everyone about it) which is what keeps other coming back to try their luck. you want to be preceptive and congnative of the world around you when in the casino, and use this knowledge to drive more winnings to your end of the table.
