What are some common gambling myths that just won’t die? Are there any particular myths that you always hear about?
 
When people claim to be a professional gambler. I hate when people say that. There's professional poker players, but no such thing as professional gamblers.
 
There is this belief that a player on a winning streak is more apt to win. The truth is each event is independent and whatever happened in the past has no bearing on what will happen next.
 
That online poker is rigged. I have heard that time after time.
 
I think the biggest myth in gambling is the people that always believe that they have a sure winning strategy in sports betting. That's a myth that has lived long enough and people still believe. We all know that sports betting is more of luck than any sure system

There is nothing like professional in gambling. I use to laugh when i hear some dudes say that they are professionals in gambling. Gambling is a game of probability, anybody can win depending on his luck and opportunities.
 
Worst myth in gambling when some people will yry to make you believe there is sure odd. There is nothing that is sure in game of gambling. When am a newbie, i believe there is sure odd that is 100% sure but i was utterly disappointed when losing streak hit me like nuclear bomb! Once beaten, twice shy
