1. I see that I've lost more money than I could easily afford to lose. Just a bit more, and I stop.
2. If I win a good amount, more than 50x of my bet, I stop for the day, right away.
I agree with your first point as that can be very dangerous if people continue to go further south and the risk of addiction is exactly there.While for the second point I found it very difficult for me to just quit for 50x my bet but if your bet is big enough then I may agree with it too,
personally when I play if I don't hit over x1500 my bet it is very difficult for me to stop,I do not play for x50 my bet as that is not substantial amount for me because I play with lower bets,usually the minimum one and with such bet I need at least x1500 multiplier in order to consider it a good day and a good win.
Then you are very lucky, my friend, @swogerino! 1,500x on slots is something I've never hit yet. My record on slots, I don't remember the exact number, it is above 1,000x and but below 1,100x for sure. And it was only once in my gambling career that I hit anything above 1,000x.
I have not tried slots as it is more of a luck game than a skill one. I would never try it in the future too as I am not able to control the outcome of this game. Thinking about not being able to control the outcome makes me more nervous. Rather than losing a good amount of money with slots I would prefer a lottery if it is all about chance. A lot of users of online casinos have now shifted to sports betting as it is easy to understand than poker. In the future, there might be a lot of casinos focusing on skill gambling.
Slots are absolutely, 100%, luck based. It's important to understand that before playing slots.
As for your prediction about gambling community shifting to skill gambling, I disagree. There are many millions gamblers in the world and they have different preferences in different periods of time. There will always be a demand for purely luck-based games.
