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.

People do this all the time, if you look at social media the majority of the people only post the positive stuff that happens to their lives, so anyone that did not knew better could think that the lives of all of those people were actually perfect, but this is not true, this is similar to what we see with gamblers in which they only tell you the stories about their incredible wins, while they hide all the times in which they lost a lot of money as they are ashamed that happened to them.

I think something, and at the same time it is and can be interpreted as something quite wise, whoever says that they always win in slots is a vulgar lie, first to win in slots you need to have an impressive amount of money, and the people who Most of them do it because they bet a lot of money, a whale can be the example, but players who play little money it is difficult Because the tendency is to lose it, because a slot machine can be used to play in the long term and that otherwise good results.

There will be no belief if gamblers always win at slots and that is pure lying, in fact there is no difference if we look at the average winning percentage between whales and gamblers depositing the minimum funds, only if whales can play more slot bets but wise gamblers can stop after getting winning bets instead of lots of bets only dominant more loses.

dealing with impermanence and being able to deattach are pratices that buddhism teaches that can be quite good for everyday life nowadays...

This is probably something most people are not equipped to deal with, people for some reason always expect that things will go their way and that this will always be the case for as long as they want, and this is simply impossible, at some moment we need to accept the fact that we will have to face setbacks during our lives and that we need to be prepared to deal with them, unfortunately most people do not think like that and if a few setbacks happen one after the other then those are enough to throw their entire lives into chaos.

A gambling addict who does not want to get rid of addiction immediately will definitely get worse and will lose all valuables and savings.
Especially slot games which are faster increasing gambling addicts as I saw in the city say that there are some young people who don't know about gambling but after seeing slot advertisements he wants to try and ends up addicted to selling various valuables and houses.

Yeah, that's the thing, a gambling addict can cause a lot of damage to his life financially in a single session.

Even an alcoholic usually requires some time to actually make some permanent damage, but with a casino you can lose all your life's savings in a single night.

It's really something extremely bad if not kept under control.

yes, that's the point
there's no use for hundreds of right decisions if you risk it all in one bad decision

avoiding big losses is a principle that should be carved in everyone's souls and never broken

otherwise there'll be a lot of pain.

Its everything talks about acceptance because if you are already that prepared that you are bound to experience losses in the thing you've been dealing with then you wont really be making yourself that impulsive on the time that you would lose. When we do talk about gambling then of course it would really be accompanying that losses which is something normal. Dont put up into your mind that on the time that you do gamble
you would really be able to assure winning because that cant really be that possible. This is why you should really be having that realistic approach when it comes to gambling not only
limited to slots but also in other game types as well.

Losing is part of the game because it cant be called a game if you arent losing and it doesnt really impose such risks which we know that it is completely that opposite on what gambling really is.,

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".

Everyone should expect to win 'jackpot', dude. Grin

Sure, if you chase the wins and you don't limit your funds, you will lose all of your funds. You must get a lesson from your experience, never try to chase wins, especially the big wins.

Quote from: cafter on April 12, 2023, 03:27:20 PM

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.

It is not only applied to playing slots. We must limit the money to play for any gambling games. If the money has reached the optimum amount for daily allocation, just stop it immediately without considering anything.

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.

I had a very funny grandmum that loved to play slots. (She passed away 7 years ago). She was looking like Russian nannies walking around casino with tokens with her belly or hand. She literally loved slots. She was very lucky person, she could hit like 250-500 dollars profits anytime we visit casino. She always picked one slot and kept playing on it. I was actually thinking that casino may just be allowing her to win because she looked very interesting - but I am sure not. Why did I talk about this? I think slots are mainly about luck. 85 year old, traditional clothed grandma can beat you in slots with her luck.

Yeah, one time, and then they lose all that in the next hour.

The thing is that no one will end up winning against the casino.

~This uncertainty is attractive to those people who choose slots over other games. You are right, big wins happen rarely on slots, but they do happen, and that's why slots are so popular.

I agree with this. You'll never really know what will be the outcome if you will play slots. There is no way to find out except waiting for the actual result of the game and basing on the rtp of the casino you can only hope to win luck based games.

Just a little remark, it's not the casino, it's provider of a slot is the one who sets the RTP.

Quote from: AicecreaME on May 17, 2023, 07:55:00 AM

Unlike in sports betting, you can have higher chance of winning if you are knowledgeable and strategic in placing bets. If you know a lot of information about the team and its players, you'll likely win the bet basing on the patterns, history of the team players, and their records of winning, losing, as well as the whole performance in a game.

But despite having this cons in luck based games such as slots, there are still many people attracted in playing it. This is because it requires lesser effort to play since you don't have to be smart or skillful, but rather just be lucky enough to win. If a gambler don't want to play anything complex or anything that requires critical thinking, then slots is really a good option where you can also win and enjoy at the same time.

Exactly. People engaged in intellectual work don't want more of it during their spare time. They just want to be pushing the button and waiting for something unexpected to happen. Dice, for example, doesn't require any mental work too, and it's also good for relaxation, but there's no that uncertainty in dice, you always know what to expect: either you lose your bet or you win with a certain multiplier.

That is the danger of gambling and alcohol addiction because they destroy our lives slowly but surely. And before we become addicted to gambling or alcohol, we better be aware of it and try to anticipate the urge to gamble by doing many things that will help us not to think about gambling. This is important to do by doing other things. Our focus will shift to that and try to get rid of thoughts about gambling. However, it is not easy to do and only people who strongly desire to heal themselves from their addiction or addiction symptoms can do it. At the same time, others will even play gambling more often than trying to stop their gambling activities temporarily.

Yeah, that's the reality for pretty much any addiction out there, it can be anything, even food.

There is an increasing number of overweight and obese people in the world, particularly in the US, and that's because of the relationship people have with food, they are basically addicted to food.

Same with alcohol, gambling, or anything else. Addictions are very dangerous because they grow slowly over time and you don't realize it until it's too late. It's always good to have a constant check of how your life is moving and correct anything as early as possible.

Ever notice this peculiar human attraction to thrill-chasing? We're like moths to a flame when it comes to risk, salivating over the illusion of 'effortless riches', and gambling is the light that keeps us coming back. But what's the damage, huh?

True that, slot machines can behave like a black hole, trapping people in a spin cycle of wins and losses, each defeat stirring up a hunger to recoup more. But wait, is it right to pin all the blame on the games? Don't we need a mirror to look into our own faces for accountability and restraint?

Perhaps we need to dig a little deeper to understand why people are dancing with addiction. Could this be the screaming manifestation of broader societal distresses like existential crises, financial woes, or struggles with mental health? It might be a hard pill to swallow, but maybe we need to face these monsters lurking in the shadows just as much as we deal with the addiction head-on.

It is unlikely it will ever happen, this will require for the experts on the human mind to accept there are systemic problems and to acknowledge that people are responsible for their actions, no matter how bizarre those actions could be, but in my experience they do the opposite, they are always trying to find fault on anything except the person which committed those acts, blaming the family, the environment or their education instead of simply accepting the simplest answer in front of them, which is that people should be held accountable for what they do and stop blaming others for their problems.

It's no wonder that young people who play slots are willing to sell their valuables in order to be able to play slots because slots are games that spend money very quickly and can also quickly produce big wins, but you need to know that no matter how much you win, in slot games it is never worth what has been lost because of losing.
An incident like what you mentioned has also been experienced by several youths in the city I live in but they didn't sell their house and the worst part was they took out a loan to be able to play slots.

It is true is not easy but at the same time it has to be done, humans have to do all kind of things we do not like and yet we still do them, an example of this is exercise, I do not like exercising at all and I hate that feeling of fatigue I get after it, but I still do it because I know it is a good thing for my long term health, then if someone is experimenting some gambling issues, as hard as it could be to remain away from casinos they have to do it, as it is the best thing for them to do at that moment.

It is indeed the irony of life, when on the normal, people are supposed to find it easier to stay aways from gambling casinos, but still baffles me how addiction turns the table around, and make things that are easier to do much difficult, and then make things that are harder/difficult to do much more easier.

For me, it takes me much time to decide to gamble, even when I have the hunger for it, I still can only gamble on a day or week I have extra money possibly due to less expenses and all that..

And that example of exercising, that's so true, it pretty amuses me how we tend to find it easier to do things that are not important for our well being, compare to things are will keep us in good health mentally and physically.

This is why addictions are so dangerous as they invert the natural order, I like to gamble but just like you it is something I do occasionally, and if someone asked me I would have no problem staying out of it for as long as needed as I have a lot of other hobbies as well, but the addicted gambler is so immersed in the rabbit hole they cannot tell that what is happening is slowly destroying them and everyone around them, and by the time they realize this is the case it is too late to do anything about it.

A gambling addict who does not want to get rid of addiction immediately will definitely get worse and will lose all valuables and savings.
