A few weeks ago I told my brothers about Crash/Aviator games and after knowing about those games they decided to try those games and try to see if they get lucky or not. They played those crash/aviator games for a week and tried various strategies to see if they can win some money by betting on those games.
I told them that it's quite hard to win against the house edge especially in games like aviator/crash but one of my brother said that he's found the secret of those games and he'll show me that how he'll win against the house edge of the casinos. He made some profits in first day and laughed at me by saying "look I've made some profit from the crash game," I told him don't get deluded by that profit and withdraw your initial deposit plus the won amount, but he said he's going to win more and get rich by playing the game for many days.
He made some more profits with that money and was pretty excited that he'll make even more overtime, but suddenly he started losing money in the crash game but didn't said anything about the losses to me, over next few days he emptied his account and said that this time I was in hurry next time I'll win for sure.
After some days he deposited more money in belief that he'll recover his losses and make profit from the Crash game. I told him once again to be careful not to place high value bets but he didn't listen to me and used his own mind during bet placement and in a day he emptied his account once again. I told him to stop playing the game because you won't make any profit from it but you'll get addicted to it.
What do you guys think? Is it possible to win against the house edge of those crash/aviator games when your luck is exceptionally good or it's almost impossible to win against the house edge?
It is clear that your brother was a showstopper with the Crash/Aviator game, and that is amazing on your part to have noticed it. The truth about such games is that they are for home entertainment, meaning over time, the difficulty level set is usually according to the player's discretion. While luck can create short-term successes, the home side ensures that in the longer run, the gambler or gambler tends to rank higher in the analysis.
With these kinds of games, such as Crash or Aviator, strategy can't change the very basics since most are based on luck. The wins in the short term give a false kind of security that the "secret" has been found, or their luck will continue to grow. Results can be much riskier behavior, such as heavy gambling in attempts to lose and often ending up with big losses.
Worth noting importantly, it should be in the ways of structuring the house to profit from such games, and not by those playing them. Sometimes, the euphoria of winning may be so deceiving one must, therefore, approach such games with caution and a lot of restraint. It is well advised to deduct the initial deposit and any winnings, as you said, and avoid trying to chase losses.
I had to quit that game because the chances of winning are very low, it's quite funny and surprising that you can make more than 100 thousand naira in less than 3 minutes with less than ten percent of that amount, easy to and also easy to lose. It doesn't matter who wins in this game the house is always in profit, if you manage to win somehow the best thing to do is to run away for a couple of months, if you keep trying to push your luck you might lose your winnings and even your the last card in your bank account
All decisions are in the hands of the gamblers regardless of whether they want to stop or continue when they see that the chances of winning are low. There are so many surprising things that can happen and be experienced by gamblers when they run a session, even though the chances of winning are low or for example the amount of bets you allocate is small but it does not mean you can't get a big win, because when really good luck comes then the surprising thing is very possible for you to get as told by OP in a short time.
I think the point is regardless of the size of the chances of winning the most important thing is to pay attention to the amount of money you bet, in the sense of not betting an amount that you can't afford to lose, and also as you said in your last paragraph that when we manage to win any amount the point is we must be able to cash out that amount and stop for a while while enjoying the winnings, that's a wise approach to gambling.
I totally agree with you, that after all, in gambling, decisions depend on the player's self, and it is really true that even in poor odds, surprising results may come out. One could win big in small, low-odds, or small bets, which is enjoyable and tempting. But the bottom line is responsible gambling. That is, bet only what you can lose and remember your bank account.
As you said, if you can win, it would be wise to cash in and retire. Being excited in victory and staying away from the game will help you realize what you lost or overindulge in the excessive excitement. A kind of self-discipline and mindfulness is key to the optimal satisfaction.
