There's no need to be upset

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.

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.
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.

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.

Only self disciplined gamblers do s apply this method and stick to it. Having an already planned budget for your gambling gives you control over your money and helps you avoid financial waste in gambling that comes with the instinct of believing you're going to win if you try again, which leads to another trials after another till you're empty.

Exactly, there are a lot of gambler understand about this, but in reality while they are playing any gambling, they are forget about that. Their emotion lost control and making another deposit until they are sacrifice his hot money for gamble. People who get addicted in slots always thinking about the jackpot, but they are mostly lose because they are doing the same mistake manytimes.
I agree, it is really hard to stop ourselves from gambling once we feel like we're winning in a row that's why we should practice our disciplined self so we will know when to stop and when to play. We all encounter losing in any kind of gambling but what matters most is how do we react or response when we are about to lose or when we lose our asset already, that's that the thing when we grow.

The point is, we really understand, don't we? but in practice, sometimes emotions control us. in fact, we tend to ignore our own warnings. I mean most people who lose will make a re-deposit. even though we are aware, that the probability that we have to return the loss is very small. however, we still ignore it. I'm sure, connoisseurs of slot games are often in a phase like I said. believe me, every experience we have is almost the same as each other from gamblers.

Well, we agree that exercising discipline is one of the methods that gamblers must have. unfortunately, again I say. in practice, it's not as easy as what we discussed in this thread. for me, gambling is a fun form of entertainment in this technologically advanced era. however, there is much that I should know about the risks and impacts. therefore, there is no choice but to have awareness and responsibility. then, the answer is to gamble according to our abilities. if we lose today, we can have fun another day. and what I'm saying, is the biggest challenge for us gamblers.

I dont agree about changing machines or games too often.     I think you might lose what good luck you have saved up changing about too often but you have to play the game that entertains you also.  Stick with lower sized bets until you are comfortable and happy with that game and then stick to it.  If you bet smaller amounts to start it is more practice, less pressure and you can just walk away and suggested and its nothing much at all if anything I prefer that no hassle type of play rather trying or needing to win especially.
I think it was yesterday or so, I came across a user's comment on another thread where he said that the best way to make a good win from playing slot games on real life slot machines, is first, when you enter the casino, first monitor everyone playing the slot game at that moment, look for some one who's had a long losing streak, as soon as the person leaves the machine to go due empty bankroll , go and start playing on that machine, as he believed there is the possibility that after a long losing streak, the chance  to win some significant amount of money was already on the way, but the previous player missed it due to low or empty bankroll.

Ive not tried such, but it seems like a advice given out of pure wisdom.

I think it's a myth that on real life slot machines this strategy could work. Land-based casinos are interested in spreading this myth because surely some people will fall for it and casinos will get more customers. But the thing is, all outcomes are random and your chances are not improved by a long losing streak before you start playing. You still can win big using this strategy, but only because of luck, nothing else.

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.

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".
Well, it's not a trick I personally advice any gambler to try, like I said in my comment, it's something another users shared here on the from, but on another thread..

And to set the record straight, I think cheating can happen any where, be it online slot game or offline slot machine, like in the offline slot machine, I think I've read about a case where the casino in a bid to cheat a woman off her millions of dollars winning, claimed the woman didn't win the supposed amount, claim the machine was faulty.

Coming back to online slot games, players can still be cheated easily, most especially those who do not know anything or much about RTP and the likes, and if provably fair has anything to do with slot games, I am more into sports betting, I don't give much attention to slot games since I am not lucky with them.

We need more people to do gambling statistics for sure. I think gambling companies have this data in background but they will never release it because it's business secret. Individuals can measure statistics tho. Not so hard you can just write down how many times a month you win or how much you win etc. Glorious stories are very exeggarated. Pretty sure there are great slot gamblers around the world but regular John Doe can't be honest if claims he is king of slots.
It is unreasonable to even expect casinos to provide statistics of their gamblers' losses as it is not something they should be glorifying knowing it will affect their business since people only love winning and so they love watching others win too. So a casino will probably just use the big wins that they gamblers get so that other players can see and want to win that themselves which will make them come towards the casino and become a member.

A gambler can share the actual and honest statistics of their wins and losses which will make it transparent for others that how much a person loses before they can win something so that they stop expecting a lot from gambling.

so i am sharing some tips to avoid this type of losing streak or bad luck in slots.
here it starts:

Now I don't believe in tricks or how to overcome losing in slot games. I only believe if you have lost a lot then you have a maxwin chance. I have maxwin twice on the pragmatic play platform. But the 2 maxwins haven't returned my losing money.

Especially if you play slots every day. Initially it will be easy to win, but losing will come after it continuously. Slots have fantastic wins, and you don't have to think about playing, just click "spin". This is what makes gamblers like slot games. In contrast to soccer or cricket gambling, which requires analysis to play.

Playing slot gambling is indeed very fun to fill in free time. But don't play slots for riches. That is a bad choice. It is more logical to play poker or blackjack, the player has control of the game.

I like to play gambling, but never become a gambling addict if you don't want to go bankrupt. I've had it.

Casinos will never release their business statistics because it is subject to confidentiality.
But indeed, gamblers should have data about their gambling games so that it can provide information about whether they have won a lot of money or if they have experienced many defeats.
But maybe the gambler can look in his betting record to transfer it to his own book to see how it went while he was gambling.
Yes, I am sure there are great slot gamblers worldwide but they don't say or tell stories about their wins.

It is that we always focus on that a person won in the slots, thanks to a particular effort, but this is only the tip of the iceberg, all the whales that have won these large amounts of money is because they have lost many times, and all these losses add up and make things go in another direction, so the record that these whales have can be Something impressive, and one day by luck or by daring to want to bet a lot things happened, then this It can be decisive and so much so that even a single win can solve your life and that of your Family, but they are people who have a lot of Money to spend.

Yeah, that's the thing, even when a gambler wins big and reports it everywhere they usually leave out all the money they lost, and many times if you actually do the math they end up in the negative territory.

Most gamblers keep their losses to themselves, which ironically helps the casinos grow as they get only positive media.

True, gamblers always left out all the negative statistics when they are telling about their gambling journey.  They tend to tell only those glorious moments of gambling and keep quiet about the terrible experiences of losing money.  Though I don't think that is the main reason why many people are registering on the platform but I think it is one factor that encourages other gamblers to gamble more.

The influx of players in the casino is not because of the gamblers' story but the well-organized marketing plan and advertising strategy of the casino.

Every casino session is independent of each other and as such when gamblers start their gambling session they think in their mind that this time will hit big wins.It is exactly this motivation that makes gamblers come back otherwise they would quit gambling and the number of casinos instead of growing would keep decreasing.I think that what people should do to minimize losing in slots is to play each time a new slot as that will keep the initial fun going in every session as they are trying something new,then they need to have a budget and stick to it no matter if they lose or win that session and last I would also put to play games with enhanced RTP-Return to Player level of 98%,there are a few casinos that offer such games with such RTP like Stake for example.

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".

so i am sharing some tips to avoid this type of losing streak or bad luck in slots.
here it starts:

1. always set a budget for playing slots and stick to it. do not chase losses or try to win back what you have lost by playing more.
Only self disciplined gamblers do s apply this method and stick to it. Having an already planned budget for your gambling gives you control over your money and helps you avoid financial waste in gambling that comes with the instinct of believing you're going to win if you try again, which leads to another trials after another till you're empty.
Quote

2. if a slot machine does not hit in 7-10 spins, consider trying a different machine. this can help you avoid getting stuck on a losing streak and losing more money.
Somehow this can be helpful but it doesn't give good results all the times. In few cases it better you quit for that day.
Quote
3. if you have been playing a slot machine for 50 spins and have not gotten any free spins or big wins, consider switching to a different machine.
    this can help you avoid wasting money on a machine that is unlikely to pay out.
You can rarely find any gambler who would dare spend so much time as that spinning a particular slot game for 50 times especially when ain't making any winnings within those numbers of spins.  But like I said in No.2, it's better to quit for that day as it's obvious you may not be in luck on that very day, so in avoidance of possibility of more losses quiting is a better option.
Quote

6. if you do hit a big win, consider tipping any nearby players who may have been unlucky or busting. This can help spread good karma and keep the atmosphere positive.
This isn't a bad idea  Grin . If I can share the news of a new casino in town why shouldn't I be in a hurry to spread the tip  of a big win among my fellow gamblers.  At least we can all go home smiling wide for that very day.
Quote

8. first check the RTP (reward to player) and RTP should between 96%-100%
I am one of such gamblers that doesn't compromise with rewards as I see it as something I deserve by virtue of my patronizing the casino. And am sure there are others like me out there too.

That is reality and people tend to believe what they see aka the positive side of the story, some people don't get the point why social media is a bad place for getting motivation.
Some gamblers only focus on the winning side of the story while they ignore most facts happening in the background.
Gambling is all about losing and winning but social media influencers only show wins while hiding the negative side of the story.
it's all because as other people here said that hiding defeat is because of embarrassment and it's impossible for an influencer to tell on social media about a very big loss while he wants to promote gambling that he wants to share, of course he's only talking about big wins for attract the attention of others to register on a particular site.
there are lots of people in the social media who tell stories while playing slots with big wins, but I think it's an illusion, but people who don't know about this think it's real.

I prefer to call it gambling is about losing and luck.
