Slots machines are the craziest of them all, there is nothing left to rely on but your luck, I kinda enjoy games like this, because I don't use money I can't afford to lose, and if you are lucky you will be surprised how rewarding your luck could get.

You can make rolls with less than 20$ on many slots games online and I don't understand how many people use a lot of money playing slots, and they ruined their day, I kinda look at slots like it's way easier to control, because you can set your number of rolls per day and the amount you plan to use per day.

Since all casino games are wired to be manipulative and unpredictable, there is no point looking for a strategy, just play in a way that you won't get hurt in the end because there is a big chance you won't make money. 
depends on the game, there are some strategy games like poker
one can also use strategy for bankroll management and emotional awareness when gambling
but you're right, sometimes it's better to simply chill and enjoy it.
Using a set method for betting is probably good but using a certain strategy for gambling is not a good idea because we know that strategies don't work in gambling and you lose even more when you are trying a strategy in gambling especially something like martingale when you are doubling the base bet for every loss, that is a proven way of losing all your bankroll.

Poker is also a game that is played by experienced players, your chances of winning in poker will be minimal if you don't have any experience in the game, so I wouldn't recommend spending a lot of money on Poker unless someone has experience.

The reference to "cheap dopamine" effectively encapsulates the process through which gambling stimulates the reward system of the brain, giving rise to a sense of euphoria that the person may subsequently seek to replicate

However, the depiction of gambling as a habit that once developed cannot be easily discarded may inadvertently foster a sense of fatalism. Addiction, while indeed a severe and pervasive condition, is treatable. Interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, for instance, have been shown to be effective in alleviating gambling addiction.

As for the remarks about slot games, the illusion of control – in this case, the belief that a win is imminent after successive losses – is a well-established cognitive distortion among gamblers. While one may indeed win occasionally, in the long run, the house always has the edge. Thus, the assertion that "only luck can help us to win" paints an overly simplistic picture and neglects the inherent bias against the player in gambling games
What you say is right because it is the strong influence of gambling and the temptation that gambling gives for big wins that make gamblers come back time and time again to try to get that big win. Gamblers do not realize that it is a mistake to continue playing gambling even after they have experienced defeat. That will make them addicted to gambling and it is difficult to cure it because once the stimulus gets bigger, gamblers will forget about stopping.

But it's true that "only luck can help us to win" in playing slots because slot games are based on luck, so we have to have the luck to win. But that luck will not come to us or luck can come to us but we cannot get it many times.

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.

    -  I agree with what you said that we should only have a budget for slot games so that we can limit ourselves gambling in any casinos online, and in this matter we can also apply control to ourselves. playing slot games.

So these are good reminders that you made it OP for all the players who gamble in this crypto gambling. And this is really what all players should be doing although there are some who don't really do it in reality.
Gamblers anticipate gambling because they want a better stream of revenue to flow in, but they forget that gambling is not functioning properly. They settled on an unsuitable path, hoping for big earnings, which is also something that might happen. Limiting gambling to slot games is one of the most sensible options to make if one wishes to survive in the gambling system. The entire system is built in such a way that it simply causes addiction and losses; we generate modest profits that do not adequately compensate for our losses. Gambling with anticipated funds will reduce our losses and calculated gains.

In fact is the best reminder as when you only let money that you can afford to lose in the casino balance and use only such balance to play slot machines you don't care much if you lose all this balance while if you leave more and more money there the temptation will become higher and higher and resulting in losing big amount of money in slots,we all lose in slots but when we only lose money we can afford to lose it is not that a big deal if this happens.On the other hand you will feel much more powerful and happy if you happen to win big with this little amount left to play slot machines.

For non-slot games, we can set a strategy to play. However, playing slots with varied jackpots and luck which has a bigger impact than non-slot games makes gamblers not have any strategy. Regardless of the strategy, because winning is determined by the symbols that appear on the reels, it will be difficult to carry out the strategy. What can be done is limited to refraining from gambling continuously. this is the one an only strategy when we are playing any slots games. No matter its a real slots gambling or mobile-app based game (hidden gamble in the game).

That is exactly what most people miss and that for a good reason as I have said before,the reason is that our brain emit dopamine a hormone that makes us feel good and as such we lost count of what we are really doing and how much money are we losing.We have to be extremely vigilant during the phase in which we are playing slot machines to check the balance every now and then before it empties out and we think then how come that we lost all that money during such a short time,in fact it is no short time,it is dopamine that makes it look short.

Same sentiments. I really think gambling brings cheap dopamine to fuel you into gambling and playing more. There's this kind of thrill and excitement gambling gives off to those people who do it. Especially to those people who already live with it and do it regularly. If they can't gamble, then they will most likely do things just to be able to. Otherwise, they'll seek it continuously because they love the fun and basically, it just become a part of their system wherein they can't easily remove or set aside. It's not something that you can instantly cut off the moment you enjoyed it and the moment you let it consume you. It'll take a long process to be able to quit and to be able to bounce back from healthy gambling habits when you are used to doing it excessively.
Losing money in slot games is natural because we can gamble at the minimum limit, press the roll button, or buy features that will give us Free Spins. That's what makes many of us lose a lot of money because we think in another 5-10 spins, we will get lucky and win. But we can also experience defeat in those 10 rounds so that we lose, especially if we use big bets.

And supported by the image display on the slot machine that makes us curious to keep trying until we can get a win. Even if we count how much we have used, the amount will be more losing money than winning money. Only luck can help us to win, so we must be aware that we don't have many chances to win.

Good words! That's how one should play slots, I can confirm from my own experience. And you, @Bitinity, must be an experienced slot player to come up with this elegant wording.

I cant say that I'm well experienced slot player but I play slot for years now so I have experienced many things and I learn many things as well. The one I said previously is also based on my own experience. I wont lie that I was frustrated many times years ago when I got bad result in slot continuously. This experience give me a lesson on how to deal with my own gambling habit.

Thanks for sharing your experiences and tips on playing slots. It can be frustrating when luck doesn't seem to be on our side, but remember, it's all part of the unpredictable nature of slot machines.

Take any result calmly, dont be greedy when you are on winning time (stop at the right time) and dont be over thinking when you are on losing.

To me the right time to stop is either of these two cases:

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.
That's the right strategy, stop when you are either constantly losing or have won something significant. I suppose by 'bet' you mean your betting bankroll, right? 50x is a lot for me, I would even stop if I hit 10x or 15x of the bankroll I'm using for gambling at that specific time and come back with the same amount that I was using initially to try my luck again and have some fun.

I'm a kind of a gambler who wouldn't gamble away everything after winning something, and I don't add my winnings to my next bankroll only to make it bigger. For example, if I usually gamble with $50, and if I one about $200 on top of that, I wouldn't have $250 as my initial bankroll in the next session, I will keep $200 and have $50 and if that is lost, I stop right there.

Winning 50x of your staking won't come easy like that unless you hit a jackpot and even if you hit the jackpot the excitement of winning will trigger the gaming intrigue that can lead you to more bets and possibly becoming an addict.
Yeah, sometime it can be hard to win even just 50x, let say we can win 50x after few spins, from here we can't withdraw our money since we  need 1x TO for minimum. After we are trying to made another spins to complete our 1x TO, we can lose all of our money. This can made gambler to playing more and after we play getting our first jackpot or max-win, we will play for other. Slow but sure, without our control, we will stuck to playing more and getting addicted.
Gambling regularly can expose us to some certain things having some crazy experience. When I bet I don't like to include greed because it does make me to lose more money than I expected. Gambling is supposed to be what we can afford to lose and if we add greed then we can lose money. Even though we don't bet with big amount of money, it is very important for us to keep winning that is why we need to make sure that we reduce the risk of losing the bet.

I would prefer to gamble for a winning of 5× than to go for 50× to 100× that can be very hard to accomplish. Winning is what we want to be seeing not taking big risk and not having winnings.

If you hit 50x after few spins but you have not wagered 1x from the deposit, you can stop and try it again later if you worry that you will lose it back.
Although it wont change the luck but at least you will not lose it instantly after you hit the 50x.
Basically hitting max win or jackpot will not make you addicted, even if you have never hit jackpot/max win, there is still a chance to be addicted.
Addicted comes from our own mindset, not come from the result of our gambling session.

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.
Basically, if we take everything into account, gambling only brings losses, so it's impossible to have wins in excess of what we have lost, so if you really don't want to experience losses, it's better to avoid gambling.
Who can win up to 50x the bet because there will always be defeats.
I can also immediately stop gambling when I get a win of up to 50x the bet, it's just that anyone can guarantee that win.

It's better to play with a happy heart and play a few game sessions for fun.

How is gambling a source of bringing losses to us when we are also taking the effective use of their services in playing slots on the gambling platforms having fun forgetting that money is being involved on everything you do while gambling, we should be the ones you exercise moderation in whatever thing we are doing while gambling because it has no limit to how far we can go but we can choose or decided to limit everything for moderacy purpose.

Slot despite being a luck base game,  so for that it not a one-way thing even though you have some basic slot skills you still rely much on the luck factors to make a winning, but also if you are on a particular game trend like winning it won't be easy to just quit even though the gambler wins a lot of money.

Winning 50x of your staking won't come easy like that unless you hit a jackpot and even if you hit the jackpot the excitement of winning will trigger the gaming intrigue that can lead you to more bets and possibly becoming an addict.
