maybe I didn't express myself well
I know each slot machine roll is independent
what I meant was if the odds of winning got smaller over time, like if someone changed the programming from 5 years ago to make it harder

I wonder if there are ways to "hack" the machines too, that would be cool to see.

In the physical world we have seen that Lotto and similar "casinos" have been changed over the years to make it more difficult to win, while also increasing its price.

The same has happened in the casinos, for example with the introduction of the 00 alongside the 0 in the roulette, making it effectively more difficult to win.

I would assume that the same has happened online, that slot machines get harder to win over time when they redesign them.

oh this is probably a trend on the online world since changing a parameter in code is much easier than changing things in the physical world
I'd bet on it.

of course they still need good enough odds so people keep playing and don't give up

hope and more hope...

Slot machines are currently meant to offer gamblers more troubles; before one can find out how to win, it will undoubtedly be a long and continuous grind. Everything in the space progresses to the next stage, so we followed the time and tried to adapt to a more comfortable approach, but we scarcely generate profits from gambling any longer, because the entire system is fixed and elited above our standards. Meanwhile, there's no need to panic because there are always ways to start winning from these slots, I'm referring to the smart gamblers, they know what to do.

85 year old Grandma knows where its at, experience beats enthusiasm.  Most people quit but clearly an 85 year old has the gravitas to know just how long it takes to win.   The slots have changed over the years some, its possible your grandma had benefited from seeing all the various aspects to the games.  The cycle theory to wins etc.   I've mentioned before one of the craftiest players I saw was a bar man who would hop on machines after people quit having put in alot of money but won little.  He no doubt considered it a job bonus, literally he is there for 12 hours a day and is forced to watch the full cycle of win/loss and I think this gives the perspective to win; my theory.

haha haven't thought about that before
do you think casino odds are changing over the decades and starting to get harder? or at least different

well, buying a house is definitely harder now than it was for our grandparents due to inflation and the difference in real wages / buying power.
There is no relationship at all with how much a slot machine has already paid off and the chances you have to win, if this was true then no sane gambler will want to become scapegoat and try the slot machines before anyone else, besides each event on the slot machines is independent and the machine does not remember what happened on the past, unlike other games like poker in which once a card is dealt that card cannot be dealt again to other players until the current round ends.

If they are bored, it is a mistake if they even play gambling because it can give them defeat and it has been proven that they have lost $ 800. It will be even worse, especially if they play gambling until they get drunk because they can't control themselves anymore. But they are still lucky because they can call you to ask to be taken home. After all, they are too drunk to go home.

Hopefully, that can be a lesson for them not to do it again, let alone lose even more money and get too drunk so they can't go home. They really need to find a hobby that is more interesting than just gambling so that if they get bored, they can use their new hobby and not gamble instead.
but apparently not boredom but the effects of drunkenness cost the man a total of $800. not sure if it's true but it seems that the person feels playing slots as part of a hobby to have fun and subconsciously under the influence of alcohol maybe he keeps putting his money into the slot machine to enjoy the hobby he wants to find pleasure through slot machines.
I'm sure after waking up and waking up he will think "last night my money was still $ 800 but where did it go" Lol

something very interesting has happened in my country, particularly I have seen this in my neighborhood, here in my neighborhood there are some restaurants, it turns out that in the first days when I moved to this place, when I walked to know the streets I saw that we have restaurants here slot machines in the restaurant, so I was watching if the people who were at the bar were consuming alcohol and playing in the restaurant or if they were simply consuming alcohol and talking, days went by, I watched from my house, the past 2 months I didn't see anyone going to play in the slot machine, but curiously in all the restaurants there was another game, guess what game was in the restaurants in my neighborhood?

I highly doubt that anyone has managed to get it right, but the truth is that in the restaurants in my neighborhood, there are slot machines and there is also snooker, so people drink and play snooker, they probably bet money on snooker, because no one is playing in the pools. slot machines and prefer to play snooker? the answer is very simple: because slots are something that depends on luck and people in my country know that and they don't risk money on something that has a greater chance of never winning, they prefer something that involves skills because it increases the chance of winning more. earn money. I realized this after watching for months

That's because he has goals and a great desire to win, so how long and the money spent will never get in the way of achieving these desires and goals.
I also have a friend like that where every day he only spends his time playing slots because he has the goal of having big wins from slot games.
What's more, for those who are still young, they will be even more excited when they chase victory in gambling.
But unfortunately they don't realize that slot games can be won if only luck is on your side.
They especially teenagers have very high ambitions for victory, and they have been obsessed with gambling because they often see other people win large amounts, so he thinks that he will also be able to obtain that victory. What's worse is that they are willing to do anything just to be able to gamble, indeed on the other hand I also feel that gambling is very fun, but I won't be too ambitious to pursue it because I know it's only about luck, which is where I will be able to win when luck comes. Chasing victory in gambling is like chasing the wind.

There are people that don't mind taking years in pursuit of what they wish to achieve in life because be everything works with determination as long as one does not give up on those things, i wonder the years she would have lived in gambling ever since she was young and number of countless attempts for this kind win, but definitely things would have also drastically change about playing slot games over tim.

I agree and in fact there is more chance of a  land based casino to cheat more than any online casino can do.They the physical machines can be opened and the RTP can be changed to different levels and can go up to 46% for the player and 54% for the casino which is something you will never find in an online casino as the worse case scenario here is 84% for the player and these are very isolated cases while most of the time is 96-97% return to players.This is just a trick to get more customers but the good thing is that each of casinos have their own unique "clients",old gamblers like to go to land based casinos as they have grown up with these machines while the new generation prefer to play from the comfort of their home.

I read somewhere that they are not allowed to change the RTP without informing regulators, but I'm not sure the if info was reliable. Can you provide a link to where I can read about it, please?

That may happen once in a loooooooooooooong while to hit it big after some one has lost a lot of money but most likely you will lose money trying this "trick".

I'd say it's just a bit more likely than not, provided that the house edge is around 5%, it's not "most likely". Smiley

People with a higher chance of winning are those who have a large amount of money balance in their wallet, a large amount of wallet do you have a higher chance you will get the chance to win the multiplier if you are just a regular player like me for having a $100 minimum for the bet entertainment satisfaction, and make a bet of $10 per spins, base on my experience I win most of the time but it does not apply to all players after those wins still get loose tons of money due to getting greedy. Also large pool players have the higher chance to be part of the reward system of the platform seems like a rakeback or rewards to you at the same time its a win win situation for the large players.

The thing is that the odds are usually the same, independent of how much the gambler puts into play.

Let's say at least the classic games at a casino, roulette, blackjack, etc, they odds are all fixed really even before the game begins, and it doesn't matter how much the gambler gambles.

Therefore maybe the rich gambler can afford to play more games, but in each game the odds are the same.

i play slots hoping to win 'big win' or 'jackpot' but many times it don't hits and my balance get drained after betting many times in one slot machine. i play more bets hoping it already took my so much balance it will definitely going to hit this times, but it never happens, and my balance becomes "0".

-snip-

Therefore it is important to train your psychology not to be fixated on one type of game and feel like you want to win all the time. Indeed, at first it was quite difficult to be able to control your greed, but if you practice it often you will get used to it. Because usually what causes someone to lose big at online gambling is that they tend to want to keep winning and can't hold back their greed - they keep playing and then when they lose they regret it and so on. That's very stupid, because usually they already understand that it's wrong to continue playing, but they still play, even though if they avoid continuing to play they can avoid bigger losses.

Basically there's not many people that would feel comfortable putting $800 in one go at a slot machine, but many end up doing so by putting small notes, $1, $5, $10, at a time, and then trying to recover loses, etc. If you sum up all that they will realize they paid more than $800 even though they wouldn't have done it in one go.
He must be quite rich and have a large initial capital if he wants to use such a large base bet, the casino will call the high rollers. It will be difficult to immediately get a high multiplier with just a few spins if he does 10x spins it has spent $ 8000 maybe players can buy bonus features and expect will produce very good results or at least achieve what is used to repeat the same thing until finally getting a big win because luck has approached him, and players like that will be treated very well by the casino because it is profitable for their business.

    -   I don't get your point here, do you mean that they will let you win casino house edge on their gambling platform, until you fall into their trap to deposit a bigger fund on it. Then it will come to a point where you don't realize that you have deposited a large amount.

Where you don't notice that you're losing a lot of money because you enjoy gambling and you think you'll win more than the money you put in, is that your point?

Maybe but here in our country, I've seen people putting at least $100-$200 at a time and try their luck on their favorite slot machines. And chances are, they are going to bet big, max bet or with huge multipliers. So that amount of money could be lost in an instant as we all know that slots machines are one of the worst game to play because it is base on pure luck.

Funny thing is, once those players loss, they are still going to continue to put more money, trying their chances again to recover and recoup with they initially lost. But in term, they are going to lose more as the longer you play, your chances to win are getting slimmer.
These devices are programmed in a way to keep a certain percentage of the money put into them. This is known as the 'hold percentage,' and it's the opposite of the payout percentage. So even if the machine has a 98% payout, it's still holding 2% of all the money played.

Gambling, especially on slot machines, should be seen as an expenditure, not an investment. It’s entertainment. The moment you start seeing it as a way to recoup your losses, you’re going down a slippery slope. It's easy to get trapped in the 'Sunk Cost Fallacy', thinking you must keep playing to recover your

Hahaha that could happen when he wakes up. And the effects of the hangover would surely be felt so that he would be dizzy thinking about it. If one gambled while drunk, he would be unable to think straight and just keep spending his money until nothing was left. And as we know, the man paid $800 for drunkenness to go home. We must avoid it and not experience it like that man. And maybe it's better if we play at home instead of visiting the casino because if our money runs out, we won't be able to go home, especially if we run out of money too Grin

I never lose on slots because I never play them. Like , to be completely honest , I really don't like the slots just because of the algorithm behind the machine that makes it to never lose basically. I do have friends working with big slots companies and trust me , you can't win and even when you do ...it super rarely and you'll get hooked to play more so that is why I prefer to place bets on Live sports or simply use a live casino for roulette or something else if I want to feel an "online casino experience".

In Romania per example , we have a big problem with slots and bookies right now because they started to place them around schools and high schools and we already have a victim who took out his life because of the slots...and he was not even a major person...really sad story so yea , stay away from slots guys.

My buddy needed a ride home from the casino at 3am last night.  Kept me up much longer than I would have liked.  They lost $800 and got too drunk to get home.  LOL.  I have no idea whey someone would engage in pumping $800 into a slot machine that late at night but I assume that boredom has to play a role.  Maybe for those who are finding themselves gambling more than they would like or losing money on slot machines regularly, what you need is a more interesting or fun hobby to take up your time instead of losing money hoping to see pretty lights and hear fancy noises.

It's crazy. The thing is that most people won't pay $800 to play slots, and the casinos now this.

They start with $1, or $10, etc, then they win a bit, lose a bit, etc, and then suddenly they realize they have put $800 in the machine.

Casinos are experts in keeping you there putting more money all the time. They have perfected this trick.
