The psychology of gambling is very appealing at the beginning but the end is always something that is never impressive. I keep asking myself why casinos are always giving us huge amounts of bonus even in sport bets for us to win huge amounts of winning that can be very difficult to have such kind of results at the end.
The casinos are generous in giving promos/bonuses/cashbacks and whatnot because it keeps the gamblers coming back for more. At the end, the casinos earn more from gamblers falling for these tricks than the money they distribute. Even in online casinos, they do the same thing.

They might not be able to build a physical presence but the way their online platform is designed can also play tricks in a gambler’s mind. They create a platform that is engaging and exciting to look like. They make their platform sparkly basically and let gamblers reach out to bonuses.

Casinos employ specialists - psychologists who specifically come up with all sorts of psychological tricks to make customers stay longer in the casino and lose their money.

You will not find a wall clock in any offline casino. This is done specifically so that players feel like they are in an alternative reality, where there is no usual flow of time. Also, casinos usually do not have windows - so that it is impossible to determine whether it is day or night. In "generous" casinos, waiters bring alcoholic drinks to customers - players for free. In more "greedy" casinos, alcoholic drinks are sold for money.

In any case, what player would refuse to celebrate their victory with a glass of absinthe? And alcohol increases the willingness to take risks. Therefore, such a player very quickly loses all his money.

Casinos influence gamblers to play by hiring social influencers who are sympathetic on the eyes of the public to promote gambling services. The public is more likely to adopt a product or service if it's being promoted by someone they trust and see in a positive manner. The problem is that regards gambling, the propaganda is being executed through misleading concepts, since social influencers tell the audience gambling is a source of extra income.

Then people play for the wrong reasons, and lose money they can't afford to lose, because they trusted the words of the social influencers who had a powerful psychological impact over their personal choices and decisions. With that in mind, it's important to develop a more conscious and authentic mindset, which prevents individuals from blindly trusting people they don't even know for real. It's about being more critical and reflexive about what is being promoted to them, so they avoid falling to traps.

The last time i checked, every casino is someone's business, so i believe that every business owners would want to put things in place to over satisfy their customers, and trigger them to come for more. And i think casinos are very good at choosing colors. just like the gold you mentioned, they often use red(maybe in their comfortable furnitures) as well.

And one of the most important thing is the level of security and safety. I believe that no rich gambler would want to spend time in a place that lacks adequate security. As long as they can get what they want from the casino, then the level of security is like the icing on top of the cake.

Generally speaking, the psychology of gambling is beyond mere physical decorations. If it's so, the online setting disqualify such notion. Whatever it is the player feel of casinos has a lot on mental dopamine of winning. And the state of mind they imagine to find themselves each time money is staked to win big amounts.

Gambling is very luring playing bets consecutively and not having consistent winnings since we keep making profits and losing it at the same time. There are more to gambling than we actually know and it is good we should always try and control ourselves.

Casinos’ use of psychology to influence customer behavior is both common and controversial. On the one hand, it can be argued that casinos provide entertainment, and that using scientific methods to improve customer experience is a natural part of the industry. On the other hand, some argue that these practices exploit people’s psychological vulnerabilities and increase the risk of gambling addiction. The evaluation of these practices depends on personal opinion, but it is important to be aware of these methods and make informed decisions about our participation in games of chance. Casinos are carefully designed to encourage continuous play, so we must be careful and set limits for ourselves.

I wouldn't say it's controversial, maybe they have consulted on professionals that deals with human behavior and what attracts them the most. That's why they have set up everything to a perfection. The table lay out, the colors, the lighting, everything is in perfect sync.

And even if we are aware of it, still we fell on that trap that's why this is how casinos makes money out of us. We are encourage to play and lose money, but then we feel that we are being entertained by them.

The problem is that these approved methods do not only attract users to stay longer on the platform, but they also become the cause of more victims of addiction. I do not have official statistics, but I am sure that the number of gambling addiction cases has increased significantly since the emergence of online casinos. And certainly their number has increased even more after the integration of crypto because it facilitated the payment system and maintained a greater percentage of privacy.

Casinos are investment companies like other companies that rely in their advertisements on attracting the largest number of customers by playing on influential psychological factors. On this basis, there is no legal entry to hold casinos accountable according to the logic of causing harm. The design process is very important for launching an online casino, and casino companies often rely on experts in psychology, whether to create the design or make updates later.

We speak in general, in principle someone returns to visit a land-based/online casino because they basically like gambling. I forgot the last time I visited a land-based casino, what is certain is that we both know the advantages of land-based casinos. I don't need to say anymore, because you have said it in this thread. as we all know, that land-based casinos are indeed designed to pamper their visitors with various scenarios that they offer. be it bonus features, member privileges, facilities and so on. well, so too with online casinos which are more popular today, there are advantages that are different from land-based casinos. indeed not like land-based casinos, but online casinos also have their own advantages. what is certain, what makes the average of us return to land-based or online casinos is because we do like gambling.

The other thing is, it's a place for people to hangout with other people that have the same hobby.

You know, gambling is still like something bad even the country do allow gambling, so you can't randomly show if you're a gambler in front of other people including your friends.

especially with the development of online casinos, something fun we can call good service from the casino that is given will certainly be a consideration for gamblers to return to land-based casinos. of course, they offer a different gaming experience and sensation than online casinos. and they have to provide that otherwise, gamblers will choose to play online at home which they can do by relaxing.
land-based casinos have their own fans, and they will try to maintain their customers well for the continuation of their business in the long term.
Most users who gamble on online casinos are young people or introverts, if the young people gets older, I think they're still stick with the online version because most young people are addicted with cell phone. Maybe in the next few decades, few physical casinos will bankrupt.

Of course, there are more things that are done to pamper land-based gamblers who come to play and have fun.
Not just free drinks and cocktails or something like that, but some beautiful girls who are provided to guide gamblers are also chosen to lure gambling players to keep coming.

Some of the bonuses provided are natural because it is their marketing strategy.
But some changes today that make many gamblers return to play because gambling machine technology is also getting more sophisticated,
and even they can play directly with their credit cards very easily, and the experience of using the new machine is more indulgent for players.

The atmosphere of a land-based casino will never be replaced, and it makes anyone feel at home.

the structure of the atmosphere is done in such a way that once you're in, it takes time before a thought of leaving that environment comes in. From the position of one of the most attractive games at the entry to the fun and entertaining environment that welcomes you at the inside makes it deficult to exit that space even when things is not going your way in the given day.

It's not something that's strange and you've got to know that casinos are first of all a business before a platform for catching of fun or for players to win. Through the systems and environment, they succeed in distracting you so you continue playing and playing till coming back becomes so natural. It's left for you to decide how to plan yourself such that you don't allow yourself to fall victim of getting all too addicted and losing too much. It's always an interplay of catching fun and doing so with your eyes and mind wide open.

Different strategies are used to attract casino interest because every casino owner wants success in their business. Spreading the word about casino sites and engaging and shareable social media content increases the likelihood of going viral. Using social media can help casino growth. The meandering paths and strategically placed games are designed to distract you and entice you to play more while you search for the exit. But not all promotions and links can participate. You have to work consciously to avoid such traps, you have to use your intelligence and proceed with caution.

Up's intention is for land-based casinos. which may be a good promotional move but I don't think it's quite right for land-based casinos which I think have enough capital to stand and operate. they will focus more on doing targeted marketing. because land-based casinos definitely have strict regulations including age and others. it certainly won't be easy to promote it widely like on social media. it will be quite different in online casinos.

Land-based casinos definitely provide a gaming experience that has a different adrenaline than online casinos. as Op meant, such as free drink service or other friendly services. it provides comfort for gamblers in land-based casinos. things like that are what make gamblers probably prefer land-based casinos to online casinos.

Landbased casinos make you feel like an honoured guest, like the first time you step in, you are ushered, you are introduced, and you are offered all the perks a guest can possibly have, like a home you want to have, foods, drinks, entertainment, and of course the challenge of winning a lot of money.
Which is why the casinos do not have windows and they do not have clocks so gamblers can enjoy as long as they can, that is, as long as they have money to bet. we are all created to enjoy good things and we are all have the motivation to beat other people for money.

Psychology is used to boost sales in many industries. Grocery store chains, for example, put their highest selling items in the very back to make sure that you have to walk through the entire store to see all of their inventory just to get the one thing that you need. Physical casinos are also famous for not easily making their exits known or letting people know the time.
That is why they make the house in a way that the night can not easily be known. But many people have devices like phone to know what time it is unlike the old time when there was no phone and many people were not using wrist watch. I think not knowing the time in a casino house should not be an excuse in modern time like this. I think what makes humans to like gambling is the money attached to it. You can see people on online casino playing games often too.

That’s typical in casinos - when you walk in, the expectation is that you’ll lose, and that’s the mindset they operate on, which is why they go all out to make sure you enjoy yourself. They even avoid having clocks so you’re not tempted to leave. If you win and enjoy their offerings, then you’re truly lucky. Some casinos even have girls around, catering to the mostly male gamblers, adding another distraction that could break their focus.
Their main goal is to distract you; that's why there is no physical light and no clocks anywhere inside a casino—to make you lose track of time. Along with the free alcohol served, its purpose is to make you tipsy, reducing your self-control, and at the same time, make you feel like a valued and important member of the casino, belonging somewhere where the big money and rich people are. However, this is all a psychological trick into spending more and keeping you inside the casino as much as possible.

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.

Patience and hard work are the keys to success.
Every business has strategies to attract customers. If you can use those strategies then you will have some success in business. If you want to join the casino business then it is important for you to adopt a strategy. While some customers are aware, most customers are not aware of this strategy.

If you are a casino customer then they should avoid falling into this trap. You must stay in control and keep yourself tidy, especially after visiting the casino. To be aware of time it is important for you to use mobile or watch so that you know your basic time. Avoid even drinking too much alcohol, drink as much as you can control. Remember, the more you lose the alliance the more profitable the casino.

This is about physical casino I believe as yeah free drinks(coffee/alcohol) and yeah the live band that will entertain you while playing .

This is psychological approach and indeed that this made me feel welcome and enjoying the casino houses that I visit these past years.

And also I believe that this is normal and yeah many of us have bitten this bait and yeah how many gamblers struggles to deny this chances .
These are just tricks to keep customers and turn them into loyal members in most business fields, it is not only applied in gambling, we can see billboards, other beverage business services, the owner always creates a familiar space, services with the highest regime for customers, in this way, customers will not hesitate to spend more money for their fun. But after all, those are just common ways and we take the bait not just because things are somewhat luxurious and familiar, the bait here belongs to the need, society always has supply and demand, what are you lacking and the casino will provide it at a seemingly reasonable price.
We cant deny that we haven't  fall for this type of market strategy. The casino has only one aim, attract customers and not just customer alone but customers that will spend time in their casino gambling. And that is why they don't offer you those extra things to a gambler who haven't patronized them for once. The idea is that if you keep patronizing them they keep giving you more offers and the funny part is that most gamblers will keep losing them but you know what you have a benefit of doubt that you can earn more when you keep gambling.

The customers are not only spending money for their fun they spend the money comfortably in such casino because of the user friendly customer service with a convincing environment that they can win. If its just fun they can probably get fun in any casino. These casinos don't only offer fun, they also offer discounts and more extra cash to bet and lose. They might just tell you a specific games that you must wager your bonuses on.

I am fascinated at how they did it where you won't even realize what time is it outside. You won't even notice it's daytime or whatever time it is and the air conditioning won't even change in temperature even if it's too hot outside. Cheesy
Yes, as much as possible they make the environment as inviting as it could be to every gambler. They don't want them going out too so they will provide everything inside and that includes food and drinks. Comfort rooms are also something else, it's like it is made to make you feel comfortable that you will feel like you just took a pee at home or a number 2.
It's obvious what their goal is, a gambler will only think about getting out is when he loses everything including the capability of his credit card.
