I don't know if you guys already experienced this but I happened to deposit a couple of dollars in a gambling site (won't mention its name) and then when my internet went slow after I press the "roll" button since I was playing dice that time, I lost my $10 instantly. How did that happen? I think it continuously rolled after I pressed it once luckily it's just $10. For sure I would have lost all of my money if my internet connection didn't go back.

Fast internet connectivity is a must especially if you're playing a game in gambling because that'll play a bigger factor on your winnings. Imagine having a poor internet connection and huge amount of losses, that would be more frustrating.

Have you guys experienced any loss/win out of the issue with internet connectivity. I've mentioned about wins/losses, but mostly people get affected negatively when there is connectivity issues. I personally believe that the internet connection is also a reason with our gambling wins. Here it is about casino games and not sports betting.

Most of the time I gamble using the mobile device. The connectivity speed varies between locations and I've encountered with the rolls taking more time as well as the the rollers moving within the bar with sudden visibility. When I check the provably fair functioning, it does right. But, my mind has a thinking our loss is due to the internet connection.

Does any of you have similar experience or thinking.
I can feel you Lol, because i recently try my Luck in Crash games and to my surprise (Since i only played just this time because i don't feel playing this as boring for me)  I was keep on Losing even if i had already clicked the stop.

And my stupidity finding later that is is my Connectivity that triggered my losses  Grin

Now I will try to find service provider with high quality internet because mine now is  just for google surfing and not for streaming indeed. Poor , very poor.

Connectivity has nothing to do with whether you win or lose and even less to believe that casinos cause disconnections for that, in fact in any casino game you just wait to reconnect and that's it.

Now in Poker it's something else, playing at a cash table and you are in the opportunity to make allin with your best hand and disconnect ... you are playing a tournament in final phases you disconnect and the blinds left you out ... in reality affects live casino games, the rest is not so serious or so sad.

Yes, it has happened to me, I think it has happened to all of us at some time to lose the connection when you are playing a game. Normally in poker they give you some time to reconnect, but many times when you lose the connection you have to restart the site and you lose the hand you were playing. It's annoying, but I've learned over time that it's something that will happen from time to time and you have to accept it, tilting can only be negative.

idk if its because of the internet or not but i also blame the connection whenever i experience a loss due to slowness because the animation are lagging and i feel that the dice doesnt move in the farthest direction where i place my bets .

same with other games like in plinko , the ball moves in a slow fashion causing them to fall only in the middle but i believe this happens pretty rarely when my internet are in good health . now i just dont gamble when i feel that everything is laggy because i will only feel stress

The funny thing about what I experienced with gambling before is the dice game. It's kinda automatic to roll even you lost your internet, you just can't see the result immediately, but after few seconds you will able to see the result. And before the result was a win and increase of my account balance.

That really sucks. I once too have played dice with a bad internet connection due to lack of signal strength from where I was located, and I put them as well into automatic roll and set stop to a specific profit. Though I only gambled with a small amount of money in Btc, but I got a rough result and ended up with a zero balance lol. However, I don't blame the bad internet connection, I was just an unlucky pal with a bad internet connection being a jinx.

Are you gambling live and depending on the connection?
because, if we have made bets and placed bets we will usually not be saved and will not be interrupted by the connection? unless it is certain gambling that does require skill and speed of connection in a game. However, so far this may not be so.
Maybe it's more of a strategy and also a little luck hehe

Bad internet connection will make you leave the game but it will not affect your chances of winning. I have a bad connection sometimes but I don't blame my loses to that as I know provably fair is really fair. If you have doubts, avoid playing in your mobile phone and improve your internet connection, don't play when in public just to ensure stable connectivity.

I have only seen and encountered negative results from rolls made when my internet connection is at its worst. So I made sure to never gamble again when my internet is bad, at the very least I secure myself from a guaranteed lost. I'm not so sure where you're getting wins out of a bad internet connectivity but if so it will be abused by a lot of people. Up to a point where the site could fix that feature and entirely remove that for all people to use and abuse.

I have observed negative comments on streaming websites when the poor connection hits the middle of the stream, sometimes the streamer looks surprised when the connection drops out. Of course, then also know bonus round will continue when the internet connection issues resolved but they do this for a purpose.  Personally, I had some issues with mobile internet connection but never with fiber optic connection at home while spinning on a personal computer.

I think the only game that would be affected with our internet connection is the crash game.
But if you are just playing dice or other games that doesn't really need to be clicked manually it wouldn't really bother much.
It doesn't affect the outcome of the games but if you feel that it does then why would you continue to gamble if you already knew that you have a problem regarding to your internet connection?
I imagine what if you are playing dice in auto mode then suddenly the internet connectivity accidentally corrupted? Is there a possibility that your auto bet on the dice will continue, your bit lucky if the result will always win but if mots likely losses you will I guess pissed off of your internet provider?

I never tried this because I never doing auto bet in dice, it is usually a manual, when the internet connection corrupted, it will stop automatically. Those anyone experience this?

In live betting I experienced once, I thought that was invalid because when I clicked place bet it says connection network error but when my connection's back, I already placed the bet, luckily I have won.
For dice then most likely it would stopped once the internet connection is dropped but for those press button on making out bets like in sportsbook then internetet connection lost in the process
then tendency for it to bet on is there but situations like this could really happen but for automation and stuff then it will completely cut off.

Hi , this is extremely weird but this does happen a lot I myself was betting on a site and I do think the internet was bad so I clicked 2 three times to play the crash game but at the end I did not know the game already started and then I had to check in stats about how I lost the money. But then again the site needed a stronger connect in the contrast all the apps were working well.

In live games and games like crash etc the internet connection is everything! You do get into a lot of trouble if you do not 🚫 check it beforehand therefore make sure to do that. If you think that your connection might be bad then stop playing it till the connection improves.

Thus it would more or so depend on the game.

I don't really believe that an internet connection will affect the winning and loss for gambler especially if they can verify fairness. I also wouldn't say it's like a myth, but the truth is, gambler often lose out on luck based games when the internet connection is really bad. Some time ago I tried to play the crash game in trial mode, it's almost certain that I keep losing when my wifi internet connection is working slow.

OP mentioned that it's more on luck based games and not really on the sports betting, most of the time when lag happened with your bet/roll it's turned out against you.
True, there is no influence whatsoever on sports betting when the internet connection is bad. As long as we place the bet correctly it will be valid.

Internet connectivity issue during gambling is really not a big problem because it will just make you become outdated about the results.

Especially if you are just betting in a sports or esports gambling platform, you have nothing to do with that and you're not that actual player so it is not an issue. But if you are playing in a game such as card game, dice, poker, or etc like skill-based games, then internet connectivity is really a big deal.

Unlike in luck-based game, you can see later if you won or you lose that certain round, game, rotation, or roll.

OP mentioned that it's more on luck based games and not really on the sports betting, most of the time when lag happened with your bet/roll it's turned out against you.

I'm not sure if that's only inside you or something mentally that you really disagree with the outcome and you really blaming your connection.

No actual basis but when I also experienced some delays with my internet connectivity, I completely stop and refresh my modem. Thinking that it will change up and turned things to my favor.. Hahaha Grin Tongue

Not all casino games require fast internet connection. If you are playing on live casinos, then that will really need a fast connection or else you might lose your turn, get AFK, miss to confirm bet, kicked out, etc. That is too much hassle knowing that a mere seconds of lag or delay might mean losing money.

But if you are only playing dice and similar games, there is no need to have a really fast connection unless you are really after a certain number of rolls per second. But if you are only casually playing, no need to bother.
It will be better to play still to have a good Internet provider when it comes in gambling especially in trading. In terms of gambling we can choose to play in live casinos easily especially when it comes in card games since it requires prompt actions in what to do next. Same with some live that have roulletes or bonus round that requires what to choose button that sometimes I don't think I choose such but it was chosen or the fact that it got skip and right in my mind I know that I was to click that tab but Internet sucks.

Of course....

When we are losing in gambling (and that is more predictable to occur than a victory), we automatically blame everything, the last culprit is our bad luck.

I disagree with you, casinos are not philanthropic foundations, especially crypto casinos, they are here to make money on gamblers, not to give all their bankroll to them. That's why it's always a good thing to wonder how the house is making money from you and which edges it has over you, you have to be always careful about that if you want to win at gambling games.

Many times (more than one), sometimes it will result to more win but most of the time it will result to more loses. It usually happen during sports live betting, I thought I have not click the bet yet due to my slow internet connection but I was surprise my balance was deducted 2 times the amount I bet.

That's why sometimes I just stay away from sports betting as you need to have a quick hands and fast internet to make it work.
