As a digital storyteller who’s spent years analyzing player behavior, I’ve sat through midnight sessions where one spin felt like a life-changing moment. In this piece, I explore the emotional weight we place on randomness—especially in games like baccarat—where 'luck' often masks deeper psychological patterns. Drawing from personal experience, user stories, and behavioral research, I ask: when we say ‘it’s just chance,’ are we really letting go… or just hiding from control? This isn’t about winning—it’s about understanding why we keep spinning.
