try your luck
Take a chance
To try your luck is to attempt something uncertain, hoping for a favorable outcome despite the odds: I'll try my luck at the casino, She decided to try her luck in Hollywood.
The phrase acknowledges that success depends partly on chance rather than skill or preparation alone.
