Losing on slots is common and this is much experienced by the addictive ones. Slots were mostly of the higher house edge game and this is really the easiest money melting game. When we spend on slots we should be careful enough to spend with the low amount possible. Slots will result in atleast 80% losing and it is assured that minimum 10% of the amount wagered gets lost.

Yes, playing slots can be addicting because of the fun we find, especially if we haven't managed to get a big win. Slot games can continue to tempt us to keep playing and provide the opportunity to buy Free Spins where the win rate may be higher than playing normally. This is why, when we want to play slots, we have to calculate how much money we can afford so we don't regret losing. With a small bet, it's enough to have fun playing slots, and whatever the result, we won't regret it because we will take it well. And hopefully, when we play slots, our luck will come and help us to win. That's what all gamblers who like playing slots most hope for, including myself Grin

I guess it depends on the specific game, but yes, slots are generally not great for the gambler.

I think Poker is probably the one with the highest chances for the gambler, even though it's still lower than the casino of course.

Losing on slots is indeed a common thing among gamblers as you mentioned. It's just games based purely on luck and you really have limited control over it. This can't be compared with gambling on real-life sports such as football.

The best way to playing slots is when you earn a good money and you stop at the right timing unlike people who are greedy and continuing gambling thinking that they could earn a lot doing that. I believe that the more you play slot the lower your chance to end up getting a profit, you'd mostly end up losing all your money imo.

you have more probability of getting into a car accident driving 15 km to buy a lottery ticket than winning the lottery you are buying the ticket for.
crazy but simple math

Surprising but true, I've heard of odds like that even more extreme. A newly qualified teenage driver is more likely to experience a serious car accident then the same age serving soldier suffering serious injury in an active war zone. How that is possible to be true is somehow we drastically under rate every day risks and probability because they are familiar to us. Another variation is the trip to the airport via car is the most dangerous part of flying abroad etc.

yes, there's that too
in the end math is everywhere
but there's an amount of mistery playing out too
distributing the cards, making luck appear out of nowhere in a hopeless place and U-turns of faith bringing down people who were in the top before

it's cool to watch.

That is crazy for real.I think I can share such status on Linkedin and people will have a good laugh there.I think that if people who keep buying lottery tickets know this they will most probably stop doing it,to go 15 km further from their home and having more odds to get a car accident than winning the lottery.

Slots are not much different though,they are programmed to get you money in the long run but they are programmed so well that they get your money little by little and they do not drain your pockets directly.I tried as I said before playing for 13 hours the same slot and in the end I lost everything,not crazy but simple math here Grin

In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, it's possible you'll be able to get a jackpot in slot gambling, it's very possible that we can get it, I hear a lot that people have gotten it, ~

If you have a lot of spare time and can spend it on playing slots, it would take thousands of hours of constant playing, or, realistically speaking, years and years, and the most probable result of that would be: your losing the house edge to the house. In other words: with $10 Million wagered you'll lose around $500k to the house. And even then you are not guaranteed to hit the Jackpot. So, it's definitely not about time. It's about luck and luck only. In slots time, method, persistence, they are irrelevant. Those who don't know it, can lose a lot on slots.

I sort of disagree with this. Not with the fact that house always wins, but wih the system and how it's definitely made to entertain me. If it wouldn't be, then why would i would keep coming playing with demo mode with slots? I know that some slots are engineered to addict me, but so is the whole social media. I don't mind being addicted in that way and getting my dopamine from that.

In sports i also enjoy the process of studying fighters in MMA. PArt of the fun is look comparing statistics, looking at their skills from videos and history and weaknesses. Looking at the live match is part of the entertainment too. Even thought the money plays a key part, i am not playing games that are not entertaining me. I totally understand the odds, but just because someone is having a lucky streak, it doesn't mean games are rigded. It's in same way just part of the probability that sometimes you win more. That's almost as sure that you will sometimes lose.

At the end of the day, the odds are against the gambler.

It doesn't matter how you present this, it's basically an advantage to the house.

Different games have different amounts of house advantage, but the casino always has a better chance to win.

This means that over time, the gambler will lose all the money that they bet.

The house ALWAYS wins. Every time. All the enticing stories about winning a rare jackpot or about winning three times in a row are meant to satiate the base desires and cravings. Thats a delusion, a trick used by casinos to entice you to keep playing.

You discuss having fun and setting limits, but here's the harsh reality: The system is designed to take advantage of you, not to entertain you. both psychological and mental illnesses? They are more than just barriers. Nor are they only "common problems." They are proof of a system that exists to eat you alive and spit you back out. Dont romanticize it. If fortune has not been on your side, it may be time to consider whether the game was fixed from the beginning.

the cemetery of losers is quite silent, you don't hear people sharing their losses so often, so it can give you the false illusion that winning is easy or that risks are lower than they actually are

But nevertheless, most gamblers realize that the probability of them winning is a bit less than losing. They just hope for good luck and that's why they play, not because they think winning is easy. No?

yes, I think they simply overestimate their luck and can't access probability well, mainly because it's hard for our minds to comprehend math

If you mean, winning Jackpot, definitely. Same with slots: the chance of hitting something like 100,000x of your bet is much smaller than the chance of getting struck by lightning in your lifetime lifetime. Yet we hope we'll hit it despite the odds. And some people do hit it, and even not once during their lifetime. We hope to be among those people one day. And if that hope makes our life brighter, who can forbid us to have it?

In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, it's possible you'll be able to get a jackpot in slot gambling, it's very possible that we can get it, I hear a lot that people have gotten it, even I'm a little surprised that from those who in a week can get 3x big jackpots, it seems like they are in the biggest luck of their lives. But only some people can get that, and I am a person who honestly finds it very difficult to be in that position because maybe luck has not been on my side. That's right, there are a lot of obstacles that we have to go through in order to get that big win, and the main one is a very large number of defeats accompanied by some mental and psychological disorders. But that is just a common problem that all gamblers will feel, so some of them will consider it natural as one of the sacrifices. As long as we still have boundaries and can apply them firmly to ourselves then it's okay to go gambling to fill the time, but don't put too much ambition there because it will only make you worse with a lot of losses.

oh, nobody can forbid us to have hope
sometimes I wonder how much good it makes us and how much bad it makes us like making us sticking to situations that won't change

though I think the final balance overall is more to the good than to the bad.

Isn't that what you mean it is a kind of belief that is relied on too much because there are quite a few failures when doing some things or steps that are not quite right, plus the belief that every success there are other factors that support it to cause a lack of confidence in one's own abilities when acting.
Human thinking is indeed like that and almost all the workings of the brain must be headed in the same direction when they get a barrage of failures.
Anyone will never tell more about their failure experience to others because there is a fear of being belittled or insulted because the failures they experience always happen, but on the other hand, every success must be told to anyone so that everyone hears and knows it.

It is true that success has many fathers and failure is an orphan.
From here we should be able to learn a little to understand all of that so that we don't give priority to thoughts that are not clear enough.

Yeah, the key to success really is to fail all the time in private, in the back-end so to speak.

All the training, testing, effort, etc, is done away from people, just privately.

Then, when you succeed after years of hard work, you will be seen as an overnight success Grin

Yeah like those slot streamers,they keep recording for hours,days,weeks and months before reaching that max win and they cut the video and upload to streaming service only the win part of their session,they are also seen as super gamblers yet they are only being sponsored a certain amount to promote the casino they will throw you a link to join.

Everyone loses at slots because they are programmed like that,the only good thing is to have a huge max win in order to recover some of the loses.

That is, if someone can learn from failures that often occur and for those who tend not to care about failure and only have determination without thinking that everything needs to be learned, it needs to be evaluated, then it will only be the same, until whenever you will never get success the.

It is true that what is being done can be more focused and that way each individual can have better character and can really take advantage of all that has been learned.

Everything requires a long process to reach the desired point of success but usually most people don't see the process for years and they will only judge when we have reached the top point. Roll Eyes

For me it is the first time I hear it.The problem is that most of the time I have been always blaming and yelling in specific slot threads that I kept losing money lately but most recently I have not been publishing my loses so does this mean I am one of this people having this syndrome?I don't care even if I am but I have found out that it is better to not post about your loses as nothing will improve while if you stay silent and only post your winnings maybe the false sense of illusion that you are winning is why most people do not post their loses and they are part of this syndrome.

It's not like having a disease, it's basically something that pretty much all humans have, at different levels. It's like for example optical illusions, everyone can see them, because that's how the brain works.

Most people will share success stories, and most people would be interested in knowing about success stories.
