Yesterday I decide to have a slots session, and it wasn't even fun. I made a $100 depo and start playing on my favorite slot game Nitropolis 4 from ELK

Most of the spins where dead spins with $2 bets, when I lose all my balance I made another $100 depo. And again some bad rolls until I hit the bonus, on that bonus I win $30 before the bonus started a $0 from the 8 free spins.

After that experience it leves a bad taste, I didn't enjoy the session, and feels like a rigged game.

Had anyone here had an experience like that and think about quit playing slots?

It doesn't take me that long to play when I'm sober. But as soon as I get alcohol in me, I want to play, especially when it's not a party, but an evening at home.

It doesn't always work that way. A player can lose small amounts. Just as he can win with a large bet. The thing is that there will be more losses than wins, no matter what your game deposit is. It's just that people usually think that the casino is trying to cheat them at the very moment when they start increasing their bets. Although in fact, this would have happened with a small deposit as well.

I think the casino will still give you the same odds no matter how much you bet. But because you bet a large amount you will get a few spins so you feel the casino is trying to cheat you and take your money. Some casinos have a fair system. But unfortunately most casinos and online gambling have a system or algorithm that makes someone never win gambling. Especially in slots there are many online gambling sites that are controlled by admins to monitor participant accounts that have large bets. I don't know if it's really real but some rumors have appeared around my friends.

Lolz, I've had this very same experience more often than I can count, if you have followed my comment history here on the gambling board, I from time to time mention that I started gambling as a slot player, since I wasn't in to sports at the time and always had no clue what or where to bet if I wanted to do sports betting, so, I focused on playing Slot.

But then, just like the experience is had above, this also was my experience most of the time, a time came when I actually started avoiding some providers to see if I will get a better win results and possibly improve my experience, but I still had more loses than winnings, at a point, I became fade up and felt like giving up on playing Slot games, this was the time I decided to start watching sports, reading about it too, gather some good knowledge and start doing sports betting instead of always wasting my money on slot games.

Experienced gamblers certainly have good control and control to stop when winning and also when losing, but if you think stopping gambling is difficult then you do not have discipline in gambling. At least, betting also cannot be done blindly without control and a target, because if you only bet blindly then you will still lose every time you bet.

Therefore, to have good self-control in gambling does not necessarily require you to be an experienced gambler first. Because after all, there are also many gamblers who have been in the gambling circle for a long time but  they also do not have good control. Thus, it is not surprising when we more often listen to their disappointment in losing in gambling.

I don't agree with that. Experience is not a guarantee that a person is capable of something. After all, a player can have a huge experience of big losses. Can he be called experienced gambler? Absolutely. But this is not even close to his capability of self-control, understanding of the game, discipline and the ability to stop in time.
Yeah, that doesn't make any sense. Control over stopping and amount of experience doesn't correlate.
It's like saying that experienced alcoholics have good control over their drinking habits, Or that i have quit smoking so many times during this year that i am really good at stopping it. Op is literally trying to make a choice and quitting is definitely one way to have control over the the habit. Physical and mental addictions aren't really that different as they both physically affect our brains, so that's why i made a comparison to smoking and drinking.



I did not equate experience and self control. I was responding specifically to the comment that a player who is "experienced" has a big advantage. But experience does not mean control, as you noted. Therefore, this comparison is inappropriate in my opinion. So I took it to the point of absurdity to show the inconsistency of "experience"only by itself.

Slots are like every other betting mechanism.  If you arent having fun playing it then you should probably quit.  Gambling should always be fun to I use it as a form.of entertainment when it becomes stressful or where you don't win a lot then ypu probably should look to see if you can find something else to do.  Slots are always considered one of the worst bets in the casino and top.that with not having fun and you can see what you should do in terms of playing or not.
Of course, initially everyone is just looking for fun or playing slot games as a place to recover their minds from the full work they have done that day.
But over time someone can feel addicted and they will also aim for big wins and there will also be those who want to chase losses.
So in this situation it will certainly become more complicated because if they fail to regulate their emotions then slot gambling will lead them to become poor because they keep making deposits.
No one can control especially in slot gambling because every round we play, of course we have high hopes.
The thing is that at the beginning almost everyone knows little about slots and starts as a light entertainment or to occupy time, and the reason can be just ordinary curiosity. But each time from entertainment it goes to a regular game that will require money to continue and of course everyone has a limited resource. When the deposit goes away, we need to decide whether to come back to play again or stop and think about where this will lead us in the end. Many do not think too far ahead and I think this is the biggest mistake. We need to understand why we play in general, if you hit the jackpot, then everyone should understand that we must get to that interval when the slot gives out money, but when it comes, no one knows, so in slots everything depends only on luck. And trusting luck means trusting chance.

Right, as you said that if there is absolutely no entertainment or feeling of pleasure when we gamble then clearly leave the game, it's that simple but the benefits are very large where we can avoid the possibility of a bad situation due to forcing something that should not be made a choice.

So far, yes, I also think that slot games are one type of high-risk bet, in the sense that they have a really significant impact, especially if there is no control over emotions and finances. But actually slots are also games that can be easy to win in any amount, especially when you are lucky, and because of this I think why this type of game is one of the popular gambling games, but one thing we must understand is that getting luck is not as easy as turning the palm of your hand.

people who have experienced big wins in gambling must have their brains and filings thinking that we have a big chance when betting. but that's the way people who have drowned a lot, not once or lost big. winning big has been arranged, if you play with big ambitions, the machine will win. because the machine knows the portion provided for gambling

It doesn't always work that way. A player can lose small amounts. Just as he can win with a large bet. The thing is that there will be more losses than wins, no matter what your game deposit is. It's just that people usually think that the casino is trying to cheat them at the very moment when they start increasing their bets. Although in fact, this would have happened with a small deposit as well.
Most gamblers do not have calculations or management of money in and out of their wallets. a day, a week, a month they do not have a record of wins and losses. if they do management, they might understand the algorithm, they might play a little or consider it a game of luck. but big ambition makes blind

Sometimes I have experienced this situation where with a small bet it can win the bet when the bet is increased to get the previous multiplier difficult sometimes like to think if the slot machine is trying to cheat? Sometimes this thought will always be when we lose.
We must realize that with small or large deposits the victory belongs to the casino, we can only play by hoping for luck because that's the victory we can get not from the skills we have.

You answered your own question - sure slots can be fun at the beginning and you might actually get pleasure out of spending your money in this way, which is perfectly fine. However long term it is just going to take, take, take from you, so as long as you are prepared to lose every penny you feed in then it's acceptable. Most people when they are gambling expect to win money from it ultimately and it can take a while to figure out that you're not going to win anything in slots over the long term. They definitely create these games to tease you, even making some of the losses look really "close" to wins and throwing enough money back at you that you'll almost forget how much you spent in a session because the wins are more memorable.

Nice question because many gambler still don't know when they must stops from playing gambling. Everything will be change when you can win in gambling and you can forget your limitation as in that time, your greediness will be bigger and it is hard to stops yourself from playing gambling unless you have a strong control over yourself. If you can win in gambling, you should notice that is the best time to stops gambling before you lose your money if you decide to keeps playing gambling.

There is no guarantee you can win more money in gambling so you must understand that you can only hold and limit yourself from the lose. If you already lose the money after playing gambling for some time, that means you must stops immediately because the lose can be bigger and that will makes you in a hard situation without you can decide to stops playing gambling.

There are no guarantees in gambling at all. Even personal control over one's passions does not guarantee that a person will be able to stop in time and take away the winnings. Or at least leave with minor losses. The only thing that can be more or less relied on is the understanding that the game should be perceived as entertainment, and not a way to earn money, that it should not become a regular activity. A simpler attitude contributes to the fact that a person will not squander all the money in the casino.

that's right, of course when gambling is out of control it tends to make emotions peak and that can only make things worse in the future. if the gambling is still under good control then it doesn't matter if you still want to do it but remember that self-control can be lost at any time and that will make things worse so when gambling is out of control like emotions that start to appear then you should stop and leave gambling which aims to avoid big losses or big bad events. and actually control is all in our own hands who determine it and do it, if we ourselves do not have limits maybe gambling will continue even though we have experienced many defeats.
indeed luck plays a big role in gambling, luck can be a determinant of gambling that will end in defeat or victory and not many people can get victory because it is not based on skill but luck which of course no one knows for sure about luck. although some gambling does depend on skill but that does not mean it is free from luck, with gambling that involves skill luck still plays a role. this must also be considered.
Because there is no need to push ourselves to gamble in a game that we don't like if we know that we are not happy already. Otherwise, we are just making ourselves prey, which is not what we want to happen. In fact, we are gambling for fun (and money), but if we never find it enjoyable anymore, it is best to let go and find other games that we believe we are good at and that can give us pleasure, not stress and pressure. 

In the end, whether to stay or not, without luck, winning is impossible, especially in slot games. We aim not to win big, but at least we gamble without regret.

That's right, and I'm sure that if someone forces themselves to get involved in a game that they don't really like, then I would say that most likely their goal is not to have fun but to try to make money from a different type of game. Basically, a gambler who comes with the intention and purpose of entertainment will definitely prioritize a game that they really like, or in other words, there will be no interest in choosing a type of game that they never like.

On the other hand, there is actually nothing that is possible to win, although I understand that the type of slot game is a game that does end in defeat more than victory, but nothing is impossible if luck comes at the right time, for me a big win is the second goal that is not too prioritized, because I understand that winning is not something to be pursued, especially in a type of game that is purely based on luck like this slot.

it is programmed to take your money, you can only get lucky but if you don't run away with your wins you are bound to lose it all, and you might get trapped in that constant loop of winning and losing..

The main question is when to run out.. When you are lucky enough to win from a casino, you get too enthusiastic and you can lose control. That's when all the gambling problems begin. Because when someone has had winning experience, he would always look up to it and try to repeat it. Because he already knows that it is possible. It is this feeling of opportunity that ruins many gamblers because they cannot stop.

Experienced gamblers certainly have good control and control to stop when winning and also when losing, but if you think stopping gambling is difficult then you do not have discipline in gambling. At least, betting also cannot be done blindly without control and a target, because if you only bet blindly then you will still lose every time you bet.

Therefore, to have good self-control in gambling does not necessarily require you to be an experienced gambler first.

The only thing that can be more or less relied on is the understanding that the game should be perceived as entertainment, and not a way to earn money, that it should not become a regular activity. A simpler attitude contributes to the fact that a person will not squander all the money in the casino.
When we know that there are no guarantee to win in gambling, we will not trying to playing gambling using too big money. We don't want to experience a lose in gambling and will always prevents the lose not to become bigger. Regarding quit from playing slot games or not will depends on us and how we thinks because if we don't find a fun anymore, that is the sign for us to quit from gambling for some time.

We must take a break from gambling to calm down our minds and not thinks about gambling. We don't have to waste our money to keeps playing gambling especially if we just lose our money. We have many things to do to distract us from gambling so we can avoids the big problem in gambling which is addicted to gambling. We control ourselves and not gambling control us so we must have strong self control that can hold ourselves from gambling.
Gambling has never ever make those assurance when it comes to winning or making profits on which you should really be that making yourself that sensible on the time or moment that you do find yourself dealing with it. If you do find out that slot games are already that making such stress and anxiety or something that do talks about emotions on which we know that this is something that would really be that too common
when it comes to this aspect. If you do find yourself having that kind of impulsive approach on things then you would really be definitely be facing up some problems later on.

Quitting on playing slots? It would really be that needing up that kind of consideration on the moment that you are really that not wanting on having those kind of emotion or feelings.
Slots are really indeed that entertaining and if you wont really be that making yourself having that kind of entertainment or enjoyment then you would really be that making
yourself that being impulsive on which it would really be never been good.
These arent your average games, they're engineered experiences. Although they're entertaining, if you're not wise about it theres a major risk involved. The deal is that these machines run on random numbers. Not miraculous formulas nor secret techniques. Its all about probability, not certainty. Feeling stressed or anxious? That comes naturally. These games are meant to set off those feelings and maintain your hooked state.

Now, if you discover yourself becoming carried away, back off. Its concerning self-awareness and self-control. Key is enjoyment, but it shouldnt cost your budget or peace of mind. Let us thus encourage sensible gaming, people. Set boundaries; be aware of psychological traps; and, when necessary, leave. A wise player is, after all, a happy player.

Short answer for the OP is: yes. You should stop playing slots.
The EV is negative, it will suck your money, your time and your life force.

This is the case with most of the gambling games. Specially the ones that are pure luck based. Not skill
Stop playing slots if you think you’re uncontrollable already and can’t manage your emotions, otherwise you will keep on losing but zero winnings. Slots is a game of chance and luck, you should know that before you decide to play. It may give you few chances to win at first but you will also experience series of losses after, that’s how slots are designed, actually all gambling games that are purely luck based.
that's right, of course when gambling is out of control it tends to make emotions peak and that can only make things worse in the future. if the gambling is still under good control then it doesn't matter if you still want to do it but remember that self-control can be lost at any time and that will make things worse so when gambling is out of control like emotions that start to appear then you should stop and leave gambling which aims to avoid big losses or big bad events. and actually control is all in our own hands who determine it and do it, if we ourselves do not have limits maybe gambling will continue even though we have experienced many defeats.
