I. Can Gambling Win? First of all, it is necessary to understand what gambling is about. The essence of gambling is actually playing with probabilities. Since it is probabilities, the probabilities of winning and losing can be calculated. According to the characteristics of probabilities, the more times it is carried out, the more stable the probability becomes. Based on these common senses, I conclude that as long as a game with a winning rate (the probability of winning, the same below) greater than 50% can be found and then repeated in the same way. After a certain number of times, gambling can win. Of course, how much is won depends on the situation of the winning rate, principal, and number of times. Taking the currently fairest baccarat as an example, on the surface, the probability of winning or losing each hand of baccarat is 50%, but according to scientific calculations, the dealer's winning side in baccarat is a few tenths of a percentage point higher than that of the idle player. That is to say, if the dealer is continuously bet with the same bet amount, then after a certain number of times, betting on the dealer will definitely win (without considering the casino commission). The person who invented baccarat designed this slightly more complicated game rule. In addition to increasing the趣味性 of the game, I personally think that the greater reason is to increase the dealer's winning rate, and this is also reflected in the casino rules. In the casino rules, it is stipulated that the rebate after betting on the dealer and hitting will deduct the part of the commission, that is, this little bit of commission ensures that the casino's winning side is always higher than that of the players and guarantees the casino's income. II. Why Does Gambling Lose? From a probabilistic point of view, although the casino has a winning rate in baccarat, the winning rate is not high. However, the actual situation is that gamblers who play baccarat lose more and win less, and those who persist to the end are all ruined. Many people insist that the casino is cheating. From the casino's point of view, although it only has a slight advantage in baccarat, and there is even a commission-free baccarat, baccarat still occupies the main position among the casino tables and is one of the main sources of casino income. Do these phenomena represent that the casino is really cheating? I don't know if the casino is cheating. I only know that the casino doesn't need to cheat because most gamblers are playing with a sure-lose method. On the one hand, most gamblers do not recognize the essence of gambling and regard gambling as a way to change their own lives. Especially superstitious Asians completely believe in or rely on the element of luck and adopt some self-considered smart playing methods to artificially reduce the winning rate. On the other hand, the boring and repetitive gambling makes gamblers who pursue excitement gradually become dissatisfied with small amounts of winning and losing and gradually increase the bet. It is precisely these factors that make gamblers fall into a dead end.
