Why do new players fall for the gambler’s fallacy, and how can they prevent emotional decision-making?
I think it happens because our brains hate randomness and try to find order where there isn’t any. Early on, I kept track of past spins and convinced myself patterns were forming. Over time I realized that was just stress talking. What helped me was learning how the odds really work and setting rules I couldn’t break mid-session. Articles like https://thebangladeshtoday.com/?p=31268 explain this pretty clearly without getting too technical. Once you accept each spin is independent, it gets easier to pause, breathe, and stick to your limits instead of chasing feelings.
