But I’ve never won big when playing slots. I played different types of slots on different sites, and saw nothing but losing. This is weird. I also don’t like the fact that the chances of winning in slots are completely unclear.
Playing slots will always be something unpredictable, for me things will always be very luck-based here, just like playing roulette, craps, yes, there is a certain probability that we will help each other with strategies, and if it happens then we will win a lot, as many have published in different threads of various casino sites, but let us always consider something, when we are playing one of those games we must be clear that there what will always prevail will be the house advantage, and that we are fighting against that advantage and the complexity of the game, therefore these are things that we should not give ourselves false ideas, that if we deposit a lot we have the right to win more, or if we play more we should win more, that does not work like that.
We admitted that playing slot is not easy to wins although we try it many times but it still difficult to win or even for break even. That makes us difficult to achieve anything from gambling especially in the other gambling games based on luck.
Maybe you can wins for some money from sports betting because if you have good skills in analyzing the match, you can find which team that have big chance to win. That means you also have a chance to win for some money but that will still difficult to achieve something from gambling.
We must realizes that achieving anything from gambling will be difficult so we don't have to allocate a lot of money to gambling because that will be not worth to do. If you are not too often to playing gambling, you should be like that and just gambling for gets fun so you don't spends a lot of money.

No gambler should say that they have not achieved something tangible form gambling ever since they have started, what we might have achieved could vary from each other, but at some point in time, its because of some of these achievement that we keep on with gambling and never quit, part of which is the fun we have, the time we vested, the profit we made and friendly atmosphere we found ourself into whenever it comes to gambling.
The achievement of a person from gambling is indeed different and not all of them are about financial gain or getting a big win from gambling, there are people who achieve themselves to be more mature in determining their position in gambling, there are people who are good at managing money because they understand gambling responsibly so they can control themselves and apply it not only to gambling but other aspects of life that make them much better.

But I disagree with your sentence that says that, we should not stop gambling, in my opinion it is too selfish and excessive where in certain conditions we need to stop gambling because life is like a spinning wheel so there needs to be a balance and some things need to be stopped, either temporarily or completely stopped in certain circumstances.

I would say one useful thing which I have learnt from gambling is to understand the advantage of house edge and the mathematics behind it, the game designed for gamblers to play actually favors the casino by using simple mathematics calculation. With the house edge advantage implemented in every games inside the casino, the casino would stand to gain profits from their gambling business over the long run as most gamblers will just find themselves losing.
Of course, the mathematical advantage is in the hands of the casino, because it is the casino that dictates the conditions and writes the rules for gambling.

How did you use this revelation? Have you stopped gambling or are you still trying to outwit the casino, being one of the lucky few whose winnings exceed their losses?

You definitely noticed that the casino makes a profit in the long term, because RTP=95% allows you to extract gamblers’ money gradually. The longer you play, the higher your chances of losing.

I am one of the gamblers who now only bets a small amount every time I want to carry out a gambling session, meaning that the winnings I manage to get when I am lucky are not too big or not as big as the winnings achieved by other gamblers, the difference may be due to the bets made. I do relatively small.
Or the bottom line is I never had a really big win, never more than $50. But I managed to get something else after I was involved in gambling where it was experience that told me that there are no significant results in an activity that only relies on a little effort, such as seeing, predicting or guessing and pressing the start button. Or it could also be said that there is nothing certain in an activity that only relies on luck, even though it is possible, it will never be sustainable in the long term, such as wins that are temporary and always happen by chance.

By far, hands down, without a doubt or even a near second option, the best achievement involving gambling that I’ve ever been a part of is being sponsored by Stake. I could definitely count on one hand the amount of wins I’ve gotten that are as high as my regular payments. If you like gambling, getting sponsored is probably the best thing you can do.

Oh I'm really sorry for you because you've bet on gambling too many times but didn't get a big win. I'm also a bad luck like you because I've bet many times in my life but never got a big win. But the biggest win of my life was bet $100 and I won $300 a bet. But I have gained an important experience from life where gambling will never give anyone a big deal in life. No matter how much you bet hoping to win a bet, you will never be able to establish yourself. You will see that the amount of loss you have made and the profit you have made will definitely be more than the loss.
It is same with almost all gamblers, as I have also not win big since I started gambling, but I have won little amount several times. Gambling presents us with the opportunity to win big but it hardly come to pass due to the alogarithm of the casino and it is  impossible to know what will happen in the future when we bet on future games. However, one can learn a lot in sports when you are gambling, especially if you are doing your research yourself on the teams that will be playing against themselves before you stake on the match.

Yes, as you said, this activity gives us all the opportunity to get a big win, but as you said, it is impossible for us to know what will happen at the end of the session between winning or losing, and what this means is what is called a game of "chance" where you cannot be sure that your hopes will actually come true.

Simply put, winning is nothing more than a chance and losing is another possibility that is part of gambling, and this is why gambling is called an activity that can never be predicted about the results, and logically it is impossible for casinos to provide leaks about the algorithms they have while it is clear that gambling is their business which aims to make profits from the majority of losing players. So this is why the idea or concept of earning money in gambling can never make sense.

On the other hand, of course improving your skills in sports betting by studying statistics and the depth of the team you are going to bet on is an idea that makes it possible to increase your chances of winning, but still limit your expectations of victory, because this idea cannot guarantee victory.

So far I don't think I've ever gotten anything significant from gambling especially a really big win, I don't know the reason but for sure I believe that the small bets every time I gamble make those big wins hard to come by, and also maybe I really do far from luck. But to be honest, a big win is not something I look for in gambling unless good luck really comes at the right time, because after all a big win is a good result to take advantage of.

If we start from the idea that gambling is for relaxing and having a different time, then it is the best way to see the casino, because if it is from that point of view it is healthy, now if they see it as a way to make money and they get it into their heads that they can be profitable there with this activity, that is when everything bad begins, because first they make mistakes and get carried away building castles in the air, that is why the concept of a casino Should be clear to them, it is a company, a business that guarantees its profits, we simply seek to win in the midst of all those things that they have already established such as the aforementioned and the house advantage.
Yes, that is a good point of view if we can use gambling for relaxing and enjoy our spare time. That is what people must do if they still wants to use gambling as a way to fills their time. They don't have to achieve anything from gambling because that will impact to their lose and that can be bigger if they still insist to chase the wins. They will not see gambling is an entertainment but for make money and if they can't realizes that is wrong, they will only lose more and more money.

Gambling as one of many activities that we have should not gives us trouble so we must know how to treat gambling as an entertainment. We must not use gambling for other reason except of having fun and fills our time but we don't know have too often for playing gambling and fills our spare time with other things so we can avoids the gambling addiction.

For example, I learned that I am not good at bluffing against my friends, apparently they know me very well.
And if you compare poker and slots, then slots lose a lot.  And the fact that everyone loves poker is supported by the fact that there are international poker tournaments.  And according to them, there is nothing like that.
It's a fact because poker is a game that will always combine our technical and social skills, what you say about slots is absolutely right, you can lose a lot, but that's basically what they are designed for, the international poker tournaments would be great if we had a platform that had the option 24 hours a day, in fact stake.com has talked a lot about it and that they are preparing something like that, so far I don't know much, I hope they are making progress, and between slots and poker it's a matter of taste, in both games you can win and lose a lot, only in poker you have a greater chance of winning.


I absolutely agree with you and this is confirmed by a fact from my gambling experience.
When I played poker at the beginning of my gambling journey, I often took good prizes, although I had no experience. And it was nice, because it served as recognition that I understand the game and the psychology of other people. Let it also be a little luck))

But I’ve never won big when playing slots. I played different types of slots on different sites, and saw nothing but losing. This is weird. I also don’t like the fact that the chances of winning in slots are completely unclear.

Yeah, I agree.

If you simply consider the money you gamble as a ticket to a show where you get entertainment, relax, etc, then it's fine.

But if you think that you are going to make money out of it, then that's when it can get dangerous actually.

People have lost their entire life savings in a single night at the casino.

It is better we treat gambling as a place to relax our minds and have fun with many gambling games with limited money. That will not makes us playing gambling excessively because we know that the result will not be good for us. We can wins but we must realizes that our winning will be related to our luck.

Their people who achieve most through gambling, but I want to assure that gambling has to do with understanding and otherwise, so therefore I know quite well that some people has use gambling to benefit different things and some people also has lose a lot of things through gambling, recently my town boy won $12 thousand dollars  and it started a spare tyre business the money he won in gambling, but today the business of tyre he established has made him to become somebody in my country, so some people can be a witness or beneficiary of gambling

I don't even think there could be anything like achievement in gambling because today you ming win and tomorrow you lose it again. Can is not for the weak or people that are just after making small money and leave gambling entirely. If we know what we are doing, we can always help ourselves to earn well without doing too much hard things to get an achievement that could be trickish and time consuming. Those are have made good profits from gambling are not people that are desperate to earn from it. It is very hard for us to earn an achievement from gambling and we don't have to anticipate on that if we want to be making profit gradually.

I didn't achieve anything by gambling, I didn't aim to gain anything, if I had such a goal, I think I could have lost a lot of things. To be honest, I only gamble for entertainment purposes from time to time, and if I win, I use the money I earn from gambling for entertainment. As long as it is like this, it's not a problem for me. As I said, people who gamble generally waste the money they earn to have more fun, so they can't have anything.

You are a great person because you can see gambling as entertainment. This is difficult to do for people who have the idea of ​​making money and getting rich from gambling. I myself am also in the mindset of making money from gambling. And I failed to make money from gambling. But now I have learned my lesson in this case. We will never win this game if we are always greedy. Perhaps what I have achieved in gambling now is knowing when to stop, and knowing enough.
Well, that's still good. It means you have learned a lesson while you are gambling that winning is way too difficult and you now know when to stop.
Nothing is more worse than not knowing when to stop gambling. If you are a responsible gambler you should be able to know when to stop gambling because it can help you not to become addictive to gamble. Winning is a quite difficult because nothing good or let's say anything that can provide profits for us don't comes easy. However those who are gamble beginners should be able to know how to quite when they have won (doubled their money) and when they are losing so that they won't lose more.
Once you don't practice risk management  then it will be hard to just stop gambling when the need arise, all focus will just  be on recovering those losses even with the little left... Most times winning can come by luck but using  it to win more might be difficult for someone who takes alot of big risk when it comes to gambling. Fine its good to take risk but there should be a backup for that risk incase it ends up on a wrong side and nor as expected.
Risks management and emotion control on which these two would really be something that you would really be needing on the time or moment that you would really be gonna dealing up with gambling on which this would really be something significant on the time or moment that you do find yourself having some involvement with this kind of activity on which we do know that this one really involves money.
It would really be just that right that you should really know on how you would really be that making yourself having that kind of actions towards it. You cant really just that basically make yourself
having that kind of carelessness considering we are talking about money spending on here. Speaking about achievement then it would really be only happening on the moment or time
that you do win up jackpots on which this would really be a life changing thing.

Overall, gambling is really that just good for leisure and entertainment. The wrong thing of most people is that they do really make it some sort of money making machine on which
on the time or moment that you do made out such treatment then you do really know on where you would really be going.

But to be honest, a big win is not something I look for in gambling unless good luck really comes at the right time, because after all a big win is a good result to take advantage of.
Oh I'm really sorry for you because you've bet on gambling too many times but didn't get a big win. I'm also a bad luck like you because I've bet many times in my life but never got a big win. But the biggest win of my life was bet $100 and I won $300 a bet. But I have gained an important experience from life where gambling will never give anyone a big deal in life.

You will see that the amount of loss you have made and the profit you have made will definitely be more than the loss.

Yes, maybe you could say that my experience in gambling was quite worrying because I never got a big win like other gamblers often managed to get, but so far I don't really mind it or take it too seriously because as I said above that Big wins are not something I look for in gambling because after all they happen by chance which means maybe my luck will come someday.

I'm sure that maybe people will also say the same thing as me when they understand that winning in gambling is not something that should be chased, because when you chase victory it is the same as you are looking for a lot of problems in gambling. On the other hand, yes, what you say is quite true that in the long term a gambler will never be able to get anything meaningful in gambling, I admit that because however winnings in gambling will always be temporary, unless you manage to get a very big win. then you decide to stop completely, but I believe that it is very unlikely to happen, and I would say that if you want to get big wins or permanent wins in the long term then it will only happen when you become a casino owner.
