    How is it divided between certain individuals?
    What do we have to do to have The Godess of Fortune smile on us?

    Let's take a little example.
    Today, I participated a monthly 8-balls pool tournament, and I finished on the fifth place, got eliminated by a player who does not even match my skills.
    The match ended with the frame score of 5:4 and I swear to God he didn't even ran out the rack once (meanwhile I did three times) but everytime he made a mistake (as in missed a shot) the cue ball ALWAYS managed to sneak behind his balls and get in cover somehow.

    Any thoughts?

    i believe in 2 ways, one is religion: if anything is done, or happened despite your will, that's cuz of god, and second is your ownself, if something is done, or happened despite your will, that's cuz of your previous actions

    Wrong.

    Just happens. It's not called luck or fortune, but pure physics.

    I don't know why that happened to you. O.O
    I usually am a lucky person.
    For example, I was at a metal concert on Friday and the next day, 3 hot girls were very interested in me. O.O
    It blew my mind especially because I get on very well with one of them and we've known each other for just 2 days.

    Hmmm, I wonder if I can blame my luck for the total cost which my Pool Gear upgrading would require...
    $824.05 <--- That

    Zee you should try hanging out with ex-convicts and mafia people, they can intimidate/bribe the jury and scare the shit out of your opponent = win.

    Luck, it's something everyone has. Some people just tend to have more than others.
