Different player have unique interests, gamblers who get intrigued with the complimentary offers prefer to visit offline casinos and spend money. That's why the brick and mortar casino can't run out of business despite the operations of online casinos.

You can't get everyone's attention with ads and shiny websites. They're gamers that assume the drinks, and comfortability as a part of their expenses.

It's not only on casinos; its a general practice of every industry, like the food industry and shopping industry; they do it to compel people to play, to buy, and to dine.
Every industry has its own setup to attract clients. its part of marketing. Marketing is everything; people have to see your business as attractive and will cater to what they need. In the case of casinos, they need to explore ways to get people to stay and bet because as long as they are on the casino premises, they will continue to spend.

The main center of attraction for gamblers is still gambling so almost any casino and betting counter is not empty regardless of the atmosphere reigning inside .
The luxurious atmosphere of many casinos is aimed at attracting more rich gamblers, as they can lose more money.
When it comes to free alcoholic drinks, this is one of the best marketing moves I know of.

The online casino know how to lure them to come back to the casino and play more gambling games. The casino use the same psychological things but they use the different way to lure the gamblers to comes back. But playing gambling games on online casino gives them feel convenience because they don't have to go anywhere. They can use their laptop and even use their smartphone to visits on the online casino. That gives an easiness to playing gambling from anywhere they wants. But those people needs to be careful because they will see many things including interesting promotions that can makes them attract to keep playing gambling.

Just like this place, nothing fancy, no sexy girls, but they're going there to make a bet and watch the match. Gambler is only want to gambling regardless how bad the place is, even though fancy design and sexy girls do attract people to come, but they're mostly not loyal gamblers and only want to hanging around in there.

I've been fascinated on how casinos really attracted gamblers on the games that they have that people come back for more even if they lose money. I'm talking about land base casinos here as it is really very attractive and the atmosphere are different.

Yep, that's correct.

Just like this place, nothing fancy, no sexy girls, but they're going there to make a bet and watch the match. Gambler is only want to gambling regardless how bad the place is, even though fancy design and sexy girls do attract people to come, but they're mostly not loyal gamblers and only want to hanging around in there. ~

It seems to me that many more players play online casinos than come to play in the casino gaming room. Some may be worried that no one knows that they are playing, for others it is simply inconvenient to get there and it is easier to go at home on a laptop and play for a while. And I think that the atmosphere in the gaming room has a greater influence on players than the advertising that the casino uses to attract players, the more often a player sees casino advertising, the more often he will remember that he wants to play.

Do casinos really need to psychologically influence on gamblers, when many sprint to casino as soon as they get some money due to greed ? Even without giving any bonus, even when gamblers have to buy drinks by themselves, even in a room without fancy design, people will still rush to free slot or table to gamble. Phenomenon of gambling - leave unplugged slot machine in a middle of nowhere and by the end of the day people will complain that it does not work, they want to gamble, and some individuals complain that they inserted money there but nothing happened.

Casinos and gambling boards mainly use addictive substances with most gamblers such as alcoholic beverages and beautiful women or whatever they like. The gambler's own sphere of control is greatly reduced when he enters the casino and he loses awareness of time control. Yes it can be called a psychological trap because when the gambler is kept away from all external stressors at the gambling board he starts to involve himself in gambling more than he can.

I would like to see this trend as positive because some gamblers want to gamble for fun and they want to keep themselves with enough awareness. Some gamblers can easily free themselves from becoming addicted quickly if they are able to impose control over their money allocation and time allocation.

Well I think that when alcohol is involved and if the person is very bad at drinking, then things can get out of control in all areas, whether it be at the casino, or even on the street in a place where they don't have to risk money, because alcohol in large quantities manages to disinhibit those feelings of fear and makes the person more daring, I like what you say about addiction being a psychological trap, because it takes time for the person to become addicted, only that the person becomes addicted very quickly because things are played with them every day and they go into the area of ??looking for money however they can.

I don't know where you play, but here, it's not just alcohol drinks  that are free, even soda and coffee too are free as you can order or get in from their services as well. Obviously, it's wine or beer that they wanted their customer to drink more so that when they become drunk, they will be out of control and bet big.

So yes, it's a psychological trap and casinos know what they are doing here as they have set it up in every direction. From the design to the drinks itself. And even we know this visual cues are already there, we still go and gamble anyways.

it's quite funny that a casino free drinks are given to customers but these are not soft or carbonated drinks they are actually alcoholic drinks and the purpose of this is to influence the mind of the gamblers, it's easier for them to throw away all they when they get drunk..this is why I always tell people to stay away from drinks whenever they are in a casino.

When dealing up with gambling games then it will really be something that doesn't matter on what are the things you've been doing like consuming alcohol or simply being drunk. Luck factor isn't something that will really be influenced by something such as this.Therefore, it's not really totally giving out that huge effect but I do agree into the point that being drunk is something that really makes you have that not good when it comes to decision making.You are really just that lucky that you have won while you are drunk but if it's a losing situation then you would definitely having that different impressions and you will be telling that being drunk could affect your gambling activity and luck factor.

It's never been that recommended that you are drunk when playing gambling yet most likely you will be impulsive when you do lose on which this might cause up on making deposits even more,and since you are in a state where everything is numb then you don't have the feeling on spending money but in tomorrow's where everything is normal then you will be having those realizations that you have done something stupid.

That is the psychological that the casino used to lure the gamblers to still playing gambling without taking a break. Casino know how to use human psychological to makes gamblers forget the time to stops gambling. Yes that is a beautiful sight to see many gamblers playing gambling in a big hall and the owner will be happy to see the money flow in their casino.

That becomes a life style for some people who often comes to the casino. They don't thinks that can makes them become addicted to gambling and difficult to leave gambling just for a second. They will comes back over and over every day because they want to get more experiences when playing gambling at physical casino.

I've been fascinated on how casinos really attracted gamblers on the games that they have that people come back for more even if they lose money. I'm talking about land base casinos here as it is really very attractive and the atmosphere are different.

So from what I observed, there are some that I think that might add to it's aura that's why we do play on them.

1. Incentives and Rewards - majority of casinos have this membership card, and so when you play and you used it, you will accumulate points and you can used this points like to get free merchandise from them. I even have been given free hotel accommodation.

2. Design of casinos - it was really brilliantly crafted by the design itself, very big, no clocks inside, and then the color could have played as well, like gold and red which they say is the lucky color or color of money.

3. Free drinks/alcohol and then there are live band - So they gave you free drinks and alcohol, but perhaps you make you drunk and so your judgement is clouded and potentially you losing big money. And then there are entertainment, such as live bands performing every hour to keep you inside and watch and have some fun while at the same time losing money.

Maybe you can add to it as what are you think we keep on coming back as if we are under the spell of this big casinos?
