you're right when you think of slots as a game where you shouldn't bet more than you can afford to lose @LUCKMCFLY but this is regardless of your budget if you min budget allows for at least 50 or 100 times the minimum bet...

maybe you're not playing for profit, only for fun

if you have no disposable income available for games at all then disconsider this comment, of course.

At the end of the day, most gambler are playing to win real money.

Otherwise they could be playing many of the free games that give you points or tokens, etc.

The reality is that the key component to the addiction in gambling is the hope to become rich.

Yes, I agree with what you write, but I have to make clarifications: for me, the amount that can change my life is the amount that will allow me to leave my fucking country (Russia). Taking into account the fact that I have a family and I am not 18 years old, you understand that I am not ready to significantly reduce the standard of my life in a new place, so I am only considering (at least for now) a move where I will have a serious financial cushion.

Well, it couldn't be helped if we feel that we're not going anywhere or becoming financially free in our own country, cause I can actually relate since I would literally want to go overseas and get a job as well get paid non bare minimum wage, of course is not actually easy to find one. I did not know your situation to suggest things that might not be applicable in your case, my apologies. Adjusting to new things is really hard, I'm currently living on my own but I consider things already hard with budgeting money, since I'm away from my family (1000km away but also PH). Since this country is full of corrupted people. And hopefully you could find better place to move and save up money.
Well, currently the situation in Russia is complicated, I know that, but is it so difficult for you to leave the country? Europe is very close, have you considered going out like Venezuelans do? I really admire him, because they have to go through jungles, facing very difficult situations, the Russians for me are people who are very intelligent and apart from that they are people who have gone through difficult situations, I know that the situation with the president and with the War is a complicated thing, but there must be something like a way where you can leave with your family safely, and then ask for asylum in another country, that's what the majority did, however, I don't know how much control the Russians have over it. going out, of course with family and everything becomes very complicated, but I don't know if the policies apply to you, I know that the USA as well as most countries have rules and facilities to enter the country but as refugees, but in a country with so much complication can give you some ease, of course that's what I can say.

Many people I know wanted to go to Russia because of how beautiful it is, in fact in the government I am in they offered me a postgraduate degree to go to Russia permanently, I don't know, but I think things could happen somehow because I didn't accept it, because it seemed very far away and because wow I like the language a lot, but the fact that it was so far away is something I didn't like, a friend did leave and I think he got married and is there, he didn't He regrets it, but of course it is very different to live from that moment to now as the situation is there, to have everything that represents being a country where many things are prohibited, I hope you can leave your country with your family safely, they give you the opportunity to be in another country, or that another country asks you so you can work, that's what I can see you can do, depending on your skills, it's one way to do it.

At the moment, it’s easy to leave the country (at least until the second wave of mobilization has been announced), and I may actually have to flee from here. But for now there is time and I am trying to prepare to leave the country not as a refugee (to be a nobody in a new place and start from scratch) but as someone who can immediately work and earn a decent living. Thank God the Internet now allows me to work from anywhere in the world, for example, now I am farming (in games) and my income exceeds the average salary in the country. Now I want to try YouTube (although my fucking country is cut off from monetization) and streaming.
Actually there are really indeed things on which we wont really be needing to go overseas on just to earn into that amount that we are hoping on which there  are really indeed things online on which could give out that kind of opportunity that you would be earning more than on the amount that you could really be able to earn from your day job. This might really sounds too simple but its not something that you could really be able to find so easily which means that you would really be still needing that effort for you to be able to do such thing. So everything would really be still needing some mix of luck which it isnt really just that limited on gambling alone but also in other aspects or conditions or situations in life too.

What happens is that when there is a country where you are completely deprived of many things, it is difficult to do things that can be with social networks, or platforms that do not provide opportunities, but leaving as a refugee is not so bad, I have friends who have They went to Spain as refugees, I think it takes them 6 months where the country gives them everything, while they manage to get the red card so they can work legally, but as you say, working on the internet gives them more opportunities, and well, there you would no longer be in a ban. , they could make you an influencer and specialist in digital marketing that is making a lot of money, of course, the only thing is the language which is merely Spanish there, I couldn't tell you about other countries in Europe, because I don't know what it's like with refugees, but one of The country that sounds prosperous is Portugal, and of course if you go to the Nordic countries like Norway, it can be much better, although life is very expensive, the salaries there are the highest.

If I left my country I would like to go to those countries, even though I don't know anything about Norwegian, but I think that in a week you can learn Norwegian if you set your mind to studying it day and night, as much as you can, has proven that if you learn around 2000 thousand words of a language, you have 70% of the language mastered, so of course, it is somewhat difficult, but it is a strategy, I really like languages, but I think that with just English you are Well, I don't know if Russian is easier to learn than German, because they are very similar languages because of how they are spoken. For me, learning Russian would be something great. I really like Russian culture and everything that it entails. It's a shame that a country So beautiful it is in such a complicated conflict that it turns its citizens upside down, I know that when there is a family one should not put it at risk under any criteria, but if you have already decided to leave, don't wait too long, maybe if you keep waiting there will come a time That they cannot do it, I hope to God that this is not the case, because the ideal is for the conflict to be resolved and wars and all prohibitions on people to be left behind.

That's because the luck factor always can't give any certainty about the answer in the end, so of course you shouldn't allocate money that you can't be responsible for whatever will be the answer at the end of the session, especially defeat. And that means you can only allocate any amount that you can basically be responsible for the final result, none other than this will be very useful as a precaution for what has happened, for example if you place a budget that you absolutely cannot be responsible for and you budget a large amount because you want the winnings to be large but if you finally lose, you will definitely be upset and emotional, then you will lose control and finally regret it because the amount of loss is very large.

For those who play slots or any gambling that is definitely about betting that is very attached to luck with the aim of just looking for fun and not at all to earn then I think it doesn't matter as long as you or they are still awake and firm in terms of control and several other things that aim to prevent.

That's right, they should take your comments into consideration if they don't have the budgetary capacity to allocate to some of the bets, because it will only jeopardize and cause a lot of new problems.

thinking everyone has the same luck is a really mathematical way to see the world but I don't think it works like that, in my youth I met a guy who was younger than me and used to win almost all raffles and "bingos" he joined
he got lots of televisions, travels, house utensils and all kind of stuff by winning these contests all based in luck, no skill

I don't talk to him anymore so I'm not sure if he's still lucky or not but it was definitely not normal

quite nice to see though

It is indeed seen or experienced like that, basically a few "lucky" ones might be seen winning a lot of times.

But in reality, it is just random, and the probabilities are the same for everyone.

Of course, after the fact, some people will have been luckier than others, and you could comment on that, but before that happening, basically everyone is the same.

And once someone got labelled "lucky", it might stick forever and whenever they lose, people will just ignore it, and whenever they win they will reinforce the idea that they are lucky.

craziest thing too is that each slots game is independent so in theory there'd be the chance to play 1000 times and lose it all or (the much smaller chance) of playing 1000 times and winning it all
tell me about being lucky!

Many countries have slots games forbidden probably because they're too addictive.


The thing is that playing Slots and looking for winnings by playing is something that seems very reckless to me, I Could not play unless I have a lot of money to do it , because of the 1000 possibilities that you talk about among you, you could win or lose a lot, or Maybe most of the time you lose more than you win, but believe me, there are many people who are very Expert at it, and the truth is I don't know, but it does, if you've noticed, I think the slots are the games. that have replaced the game of poker a lot, because if you look at it for Some time now, many people were looking for playing poker in the casinos because it is the most popular game it had, even the PVP Tournaments were something exceptional that no one knew about. I lost, or at least they wanted to see it without being able to play, so as that began to end, the Platforms started PVP because a big boom for slots arose, which I found Interesting, it should be noted that I Before , when I started in the world Of the crypt, I didn't play the Slots because I lost Everything.

After 1 year or more ago because my passion there did not reduce, I began to see the tragmewaves as a stress reliever for me, so I already see it as that, but the people who see it and play to win because it has its problems, it is known that with little money It can be multiplied to a lot, and that's just some great players, there are some who make plays up to 200 usd in a single spin, and that's something that surprises me, the truth is I wouldn't be able to bet so much in one turn that in the race I could lose and oh, that's how 200usd goes, for me it's a lot, but there are people who gamble a lot, bet very hard and win dudtro too, but the unknown is, it will be that throughout their life how much they have played order? How does it compensate for all that life where they particularly leave some money in the casino? is it worth doing it? That's what I would like to read about people who have won big on a slot machine.

IMO, if you say only a few people show their winnings but in the slot thread you can find out how many people have won from slot games but have you ever seen a slot gambler showing his losses or total losses? I think its very rare because its natural for us as humans to show victory more often than defeat, which is a little embarrassing, but even so, sometimes there are also some who show their victory but also say dont ask about previous losses because there will definitely be more. Grin
In the slot thread, there are lots of people who win and share their winnings and that makes us jealous of the wins they get Grin

Slot players may rarely show their losses but they only say they have lost and some people experience losses that they can accept. And there are also people who, apart from sharing their winnings, also tell the number of their losses so that people know that slot games depend on luck. People need to know that playing gambling can result in many losses apart from wins.

Not only in slot games, but it is also rare to see people share their losses in other games. As len01 said, it is quite normal because sharing what we wins is more fun than sharing our losses. For me myself, I do not like to share my losses too because it will make me remind me about the losses while I always try to forget what I have lost while gambling. What we need to do as reader or viewer of those nice win is to take it wisely as a motivation for us that winning is possible but there is also high risk behind it.
Truth is many gamblers doesn't like to share any losses experience particularly when huge money is involved, they want to remember their wins more than losses, known as selective recall. For some, gambling is a pleasant activity that serves as a distraction to their stress so tendency that once they lose a money, they will keep it to them because they don't want to feel like they're being pity.

That is only for some gamblers and they are a minority,the majority will gladly share their losses and will accompany that with a lot of harsh words and swearing in general.Yesterday I was playing Pragmatic Play slot Sweet Bonanza,using IDR as a currency and having 100.000 IDR while playing with a bet of 200 IDR the minimum it took me well over 1.5 hour to give me the bonus and during this time it kept me in the game making me lose a little in every passing moment.

Imagine if I played with a huge amount,so playing in slots is not recommended at all unless you have money to burn chasing that extremely rare max win.

You're right about that. Sharing wins feels more fun and there is no intention to show them off. We as readers, must be wise and do not need to intend to win like other people. I also never remember how much I lost or won because it was just gambling and had no influence whatsoever on the results I got. Even if I win, it won't last long because a few days later, I can go back to the casino to play slots again.

@ethereumhunter btw I never feel jealous because at least I've gotten maxwin a few times. Tongue

Indeed, there are some who share stories of their losses or total losses, but that not all they want because sometimes gamblers share stories of their overall experience of losses or profits to prove that they really have genuine experiences from what they did themselves, not just from other people experiences and I have also shared my losses on slots in that thread and by sharing those losses I can give advice to other people not to bet too large amounts to avoid bigger losses because it is still all about luck.
You are lucky to have gotten Maxwin many times. I've never had a maxwin but I haven't thought about it seriously.

By sharing experiences of loss and win, you can teach other people what they should do when gambling. The important thing is that people can learn not to chase win because that can lead to many losses.

But I rarely win and lose more often so I don't share my wins too often.

@Wapfika I understand beforehand that they only share stories or share winning experiences in general and that is indeed a natural thing because we are certainly very happy to be able to get a big multiplier that is worth telling to other people and in general they dont always win because the basis of slots is luck but not a few people are lucky, only 1x spin gets maxwin and I once got that luck with a bet of around $0.1 but unfortunately I am currently trying to take a break from slot gambling Grin

@juder as I said before, its all just about entertainment, you dont need to talk about your losses, but you will be very happy if you get a big win or get a maxwin, which is very worthy of sharing your experience with other people and that is just one form of expressing your pleasure and if we talking about the losses must be very big.

ah, that a normal thing, its just an attempt to cover up his losses from other people, or in other words, he only has a specific intention to borrow money from you, but he brags so that you want to lend him money because he thinks you will believe him if he can pay it back your money but that so ridiculous.

This is usually done by gamblers who experience losses by not showing their losses in the casino because they don't want to show their losses to the public because that will make them look bad in front of the people who follow them. Especially if it is a big loss, they will hide it even more closely from people and pretend they have not experienced any loss.

Only a few people can show their winnings publicly because many experience losses, especially those who follow what the gambler does. But winning a slot game is not as easy as we imagine because there is a luck factor that we have to pay attention to. Luck will not be on our side too often, especially if we gamble in a hurry or just want to chase the win. We will lose a lot of money without being able to recover the losses.

Haha yes I think that is very difficult for them to do, I mean only a small percentage of gamblers are able to show all their losses transparently to others or even their own friends, they will only show one victory when they are really lucky. And I'm sure they will avoid some questions that say "how much have you lost on the slots', they will avoid that question, and actually I don't really need them to tell the truth because on the other hand I also already know that the real number is that their losses are far more than the wins that will come occasionally from dozens of tries.

So maybe I just want to know if they're going to tell the truth or if they'd rather avoid it. Discussing this topic reminds me of one of my friends who is quite arrogant when it comes to gambling, he always brags and says that he just got a big win but not based on any evidence, and I just smile at him because I know the real facts. Logically if he just got a big win then there's no way he'd borrow money from me to buy two pizzas, it's ridiculous. Cheesy

there's something else too
tracking is boring, much more boring than winning, so most people don't track, be them gamblers or investors
when they don't track they're blind on exact wins and losses and can't know for sure if they're profitable, what could make them keep gambling, thinking they're winning, even if they're not

Yes, that's partly why casinos are so successful. Gamblers are basically seen as part of their marketing team  Grin

They usually comment all about their winnings and how easy it is to make money betting at the casino, maybe they will even show you their receipts, etc.

But they rarely mention all the times they have lost money there. And also the casinos make you feel great while you are winning, giving you free food and drinks, etc, so that you stay longer.

The moment you stop putting money there, the lights, music, drinks, and food stop.

exactly
that's why it's good to approach things with a healthy dose of skepticism if somebody tells you something
lots of times there's a bias on the discourse and sometimes it isn't obvious at first sight

I think what they are discussing is about the total winnings in general and not the one time win or seasonal win on slot. It’s really very rare to see someone on profit side on his whole game especially if he is just playing slot games since this game is known for being hard to beat in general due to the house edge and complex RNG settings.

I rarely win on slot games too but I frequently win small to medium size win but that’s not enough to bag profit but rather it’s just for breakeven with a minimal deficit due to house edge.

But they rarely mention all the times they have lost money there. And also the casinos make you feel great while you are winning, giving you free food and drinks, etc, so that you stay longer.

The moment you stop putting money there, the lights, music, drinks, and food stop.

craziest thing too is that each slots game is independent so in theory there'd be the chance to play 1000 times and lose it all or (the much smaller chance) of playing 1000 times and winning it all
tell me about being lucky!

Many countries have slots games forbidden probably because they're too addictive.

Absolutely right.

The thing is that the most probable scenario will be somewhere in the middle, where the gambler loses some and wins some, but overall loses a bit more.

This makes it perfect to become addicted because the times the gambler wins reinforces the idea that they could make it big, and the loses are simply ignored.

It's a hugely addictive thing, and a very expensive hobby.

yes
there's something else too
tracking is boring, much more boring than winning, so most people don't track, be them gamblers or investors
when they don't track they're blind on exact wins and losses and can't know for sure if they're profitable, what could make them keep gambling, thinking they're winning, even if they're not

That is the reason most people play slots to win those huge multipliers although x1111 is not a really huge one,I am sure those 2 guys have won a lot more as I have seen their multipliers in the Slot 101 thread here  Grin.If the slots offered not such huge multipliers no one would play them eventually while they still are the most played games in all the casinos nowadays.

Some people would play still, I think, even if the highest multiplier was like 100x, but in general you are right, most people would abandon slots. It's potential multipliers like 100,000x and 150,000x is what attracts them. Today I've found out that one of my favourite slots, Tombstone R.I.P. by Nolimit City has the maximum prize of 300,000x. I used to play it not because I was winning on it a lot, my wins and losses were more or less balancing each other out, but because I loved the animation. From now on I'll be expecting that 300,000x of my bet too. Smiley
