That's right, many people like slot games because slot games don't require special skills, all you need to play slots is luck, the internet, and a device to play it.  but i personally don't really like slots because i don't have good luck when playing them, i actually really like sports betting because it requires analytical skills to be able to win the bet.  The thing that is quite dangerous about slot addiction is that we become debtors and our social relationships with those around us become bad, slots are fun but slot addiction is a disaster.
Moreover, slot games can be played with very little capital. I've also played and never had big luck. but I have a friend who likes playing slots. He won several times even with small capital. whereas all I get is playing longer in the game. it's small wins that extend the duration of the game.
Slot games are just luck. There is no technique or formula that can make you win. I wouldn't say it's a waste of money. because I saw my friend win from slots. but still, we can't make it a way to earn income.
Even though your friend can win at slot games, that doesn't mean that slot games are not games that waste money because most gamblers feel that the ratio of profit to the money that has been spent is sometimes not comparable because before they succeed in winning, quite a lot of money has been wasted. We see many players who win big money in slot games but we don't know for sure how much they have spent, but slots are always tempting and I feel this when opening a casino account besides sports betting, slot games are the next choice.

No one can predict the outcome of slots, someone's luck also varies. I myself often feel the same way, how can that person win with a minimum deposit. But after all, this is a game that requires emotional control. Sometimes, people who deposit a little can win, because they are patient when playing, not in a hurry to increase their bet when they win. Because this can also have a significant effect when he loses. I think I'm not part of them who can control my emotion. Because when I feel I already win, mostly I increased my bet.

Being rational probably helps, but at the same time it is all about luck in the end.

The thing is that once you win big, you should stop playing if you do not want to lose what you won

The risk of a completely luck-based game like slot machines is huge and it's very frustrating, if you get involved but don't bring control and some strong boundaries to be honest I'm not sure you will be able to survive completely, even more often than not you will easily lose money very quickly. On the other hand, as you suggested about not going overboard with this type of game, I think this is a game that is too hard for people who are not mentally tough.

Of course then I hope that if you really want to get involved there then at least you have to find out first about the biggest impact that can happen and befall you, you can see many examples from other people's cases, for those who are too serious in putting hope by always chasing defeat in order to achieve recovery is very difficult and impossible in my opinion. So if you are not ready then I think it's better to look for other bets that are safer and not too draining mentally and your money such as maybe skill-based sports if you really have knowledge in the world of sports.
It is difficult to completely resist the temptation of slot games because playing slot machines can make us want to play them continuously, maybe until our money runs out, then we can stop. And yes, playing slots requires strong self-control and clear boundaries so we can know when we should stop. Having to stop here means we shouldn't play slots continuously because this type of game is very tempting and can make us addicted. That could be the reason many people like this slot game because the temptation to get big multipliers that can give them big wins makes them unable to stop playing slots easily.

Most gamblers don't think about the biggest impact that can happen and hit them because they see lots of videos showing people can win with big multipliers. But unfortunately, they don't see videos of people losing a lot of money or even all their money. Most gamblers are also not mentally prepared to see their losses in slot games, which makes them return to slot games continuously. They try to recover from previous losses by playing again another day but they don't realize that this will result in more losses and they cannot recover from their losses. Only with awareness and self-control can they realize that they have gone too far in playing slots so they can decide to start reducing their gambling. Otherwise, they will really lose a lot of money and it could make them go bankrupt.
Slot games are actually entertaining and thrilling but for me it would really just that only last or would really be just good on just few rolls and im not that a gambler whose really that
playing long with slots because i do get easily bored and this is why when i do play some casino games then it would be neither on slots,roulettes or dice games etc... On the time that
i do get bored then this is the time i would really be considering on making some sports bet on which i do really make those  changes of games whenever on what my mood is.
There are times on which i dont like to play casino games on entire day and would be focusing on playing or betting on sports and there are days which i do play only casino games
or something interchangeable.

Slots have one of the worst odd for winning for the gamblers. Slots were started as an arcade game and they are focused on entertainment than anything else.
There's zero skill involved in slots so anyone can play them without any thoughts and prior idea about rules. Even if you know the rules, there's no outcome you could change.
They are a fun way to pass the time and often getting smaller rewards, the gameplay lasts longer. The expectation of jackpot attracts the people.
They are one of the difficult games to implement betting strategies.

And many young people, adults and the elderly also like to play slots because of the easy access to play them. There are benefits to playing slots, namely as entertainment for oneself at home when someone is stressed thinking about work or bored, but it requires proper control, namely limiting the amount of money and time, not running it continuously. If someone does not have these two things, it will cause major disasters in life and cause problems in their own family.
That simplicity is what makes slots so popular, games that are many times more complex are nowhere near as popular as people are not going to invest their limited time trying to learn how to play one of those games properly, still slots are probably one of the worst games you can play when it comes to the house edge you have to face, and it is because of this reason I prefer other games as I can play them for cheaper and for longer compared to slot machines.

From here, people are more interested and try playing slots compared to other gambling games and there is no time limit for playing them. To be honest, I'm not very interested in the slot game itself because I often see people who are addicted to slots, their lives are very sad and I'm very concerned about seeing that.
And I also think that there are still other gambling games that only rely on small bets, and most importantly you have to stay focused on good self-control so as not to have a big impact when gambling.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

Almost all of us know that slot games are a waste of time, but we still play them, slot games sometimes make us addicted more quickly because usually at small betting tables we often win. I've also never been lucky when playing slots because at the start of the round sometimes we can always win the bet on several rounds, but when changing tables to go up on a slightly bigger round I quite often lose the bet completely.

I'm also never happy when I experience a losing streak in slots, but it's hard to avoid this game when have money and there's almost no way to stop even though we know that winning at slots always relies on luck.
Slot games are a waste of time but sometimes gamblers use them just for entertainment and to try their luck, slots are a game that is easily addicted because the spins make us guess the results and hope to get a scater and get a big jackpot, because of the spins sometimes gamblers don't realize that they have spent a lot of time and a lot of money so they experience big losses without them realizing it, slot games must be used consciously, don't get too fixated on round after round because it tricks us into playing continuously and this can make us addicted to gambling. .

Many people experience the same thing, namely that they experience more losses than profits, even though the game is fun but cannot be used to make a definite profit because slots should only be used as a means of entertainment without too much hope of making a profit.

Yes, and I think most people prefer playing slots compared to other gambling games. Maybe there is an advantage to the slot itself, namely that you only need to bring a gadget and it is easy to play anywhere with friends while hanging out together.

Basically the same, namely there is no playing time limit and there are no rules for placing bets, so people will find it easy and free to run their slots. And if gamblers don't immediately realize it and stop doing it, it will have a bad impact on their lives, because in gambling actually more people experience losses than those who experience profits.
That's right, many people like slot games because slot games don't require special skills, all you need to play slots is luck, the internet, and a device to play it.  but i personally don't really like slots because i don't have good luck when playing them, i actually really like sports betting because it requires analytical skills to be able to win the bet.  The thing that is quite dangerous about slot addiction is that we become debtors and our social relationships with those around us become bad, slots are fun but slot addiction is a disaster.

Addiction, whatever it is, is a disaster. both for the sufferer, or the parties closest to him. Talking about slot games, as you said, this game is actually very easy to understand and easy to play. does not require special skills, let alone involves skills. what we need is a set of tools such as a smartphone, PC or so on as a medium to play it. plus, an account and money as a means to start the game.

Honestly, I like slot games. especially, during times when I'm relaxed and I have nothing to do but have fun. as you said, we even agree that this type of game really relies on luck. Therefore, we as players have to be clever at playing it and getting around it. You don't have to always win, because obviously this game cannot be predicted at all. What we can do is use the time as needed. We can start from the lowest bet, increase it slowly and then lower the bet again. adjust it to the game session, and what we are playing. The focus is, we only play to fill our free time, with limited capital, do various variables and have fun with it for relaxation. If you are able to reach this stage, a person will not be trapped in excessive gaming, let alone making deposits again and again. Likewise with me, football betting is my favorite. However, slots can be a diversion and how do we respond and utilize them.

it should be clearly understood that all your actions electronic casino monitors, and if necessary, the results are corrected. If you play often in slot games, you may be given a little win to pull you into the game more. and then it's up to you - either you take a small winnings and leave the game, or you will continue to play - and lose

To say that way, it is like saying that all kinds of gambling is a waste of time. Because in all gambling there are chances of winning as well as chances of losing. However, in this case, slot games directly depend on luck, on the other hand, in the case of sports betting, the probability of winning is a little higher if you keep the knowledge of the touch relationship.  Even then I would say that gambling is only played for entertainment purpose, then I call it slot game or sports game, I don't call it a time waste.

If you are not a fan of gambling, you will find that it is a useless activity and a waste of time and money. It can be a detrimental thing if played by "stupid" people who cannot interpret and understand gambling. This is because such a person does not have the ability to determine when he should play jdui and when he should stop for a while from such activities, and such a person will continue to gamble as long as he has some money. and when the person is really addicted to gambling, then he will always try to get money so that he can play gambling, such as going into debt or selling his personal belongings that are quite valuable. but not for people who are wise in understanding and interpreting gambling, he knows very well when he should play and when he should stop, without having to leave what is his responsibility.

And speaking of the possibility of winning in gambling, we all have the same chance of winning, as long as we are still playing gambling. but are we able to create an opportunity to increase the probability of winning? I think this is something that is difficult for us to achieve, so instead of continuing to chase victory, we should continue to try to minimize the level of risk in playing gambling, so that we can prevent large and significant losses. And this we can achieve, namely with good self-control and good financial control as well.

Totally agree. It is really a waste of time and money. I personally played this in an online casino I think that was some months ago and I ends up losing all the deposited amount of money I got on my account. After all my funds are gone, I did not mind to play on it again. From slot games I jumped into sports betting.
I also think that slot games are just a waste of both time and money. Because there is not much entertainment in them.  Only gamblers panic when playing them. But as much as I have gambling experience, Dice, Crash, Plinko, Mines, Hilo, Blackjack have enough fun and profit opportunities. Here only you have to play cool and bet cool. However, there is no guarantee that you will do these things.  But it is possible to profit from them if you have skill.

There is no entertainment in all games if you do not like it, if you cant enjoy it, and if you have your own preferences.
All games will also be waste of time and money if you cant control your gambling habit.
Wasting time or not is not about the game, it is subjective from our own preferences as gambler, based on ourselves on how to deal with our gambling habit.
Coming to possibility to make profit in these games, what kind of skills you are talking about and how it is possible to use skills while they are all luck based game.

That makes sense, whether or not a game is a waste of time really comes down to each person's perspective on it. You're only really entertained when you play the games you like, like I do, out of thousands of games I only pick 1/2 that I visit every session, and that's fine with me and I wouldn't say it's a waste of money because I have an engagement plan that keeps me safe in terms of my budget.

I suspect that if you're trying out all the games that are out there it's likely that your goals are different to some people who are still fully conscious, I think it's likely that you want something beyond the fun of it, so you're trying out all the games with the aim and hope of "hopefully finding a bit or even a lot of luck (winning)".

As you said above I agree that gambling is a complete waste of money when you get involved with the wrong approach and the wrong way and also driven by the wrong understanding of gambling itself, that's clear. If you gamble on games like slots then it's entirely up to you how lucky you are at the time, some methods/strategies really don't work, I've tried it and now it's your turn if you don't believe me.

Not all gamblers in the crypto gambling industry think that slot games are just a waste of time. What if they help them get relief from the heavy problems they are going through? Would you say it's a waste of time?

That is to say, it depends on the reason why a gambler plays, especially for gamblers who see it as a source of income. They get a profit here not even every day, but when they win, they still get their money back. If you lose and still have some profit at the end, can you still say it's a waste of time? I'm just asking.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

Almost all of us know that slot games are a waste of time, but we still play them, slot games sometimes make us addicted more quickly because usually at small betting tables we often win. I've also never been lucky when playing slots because at the start of the round sometimes we can always win the bet on several rounds, but when changing tables to go up on a slightly bigger round I quite often lose the bet completely.

I'm also never happy when I experience a losing streak in slots, but it's hard to avoid this game when have money and there's almost no way to stop even though we know that winning at slots always relies on luck.

As someone who usually prefers slot games when I gamble I claim that this is partly a waste of time and money and partly not. For example, since the reason why I generally prefer slot games is to spend some time and have fun, I think that this isn't a waste of time and money for me because I enjoy playing slots and I already take the risk of losing the money I will use to play slots.

Although it is rare, there are sometimes I win when I play slots and for this reason I think that slot games aren't a waste of money and time. So, if I had to comment based on my own experience I can say that the idea that "playing slots is a waste of money and time" may be partially true. Since it is a form of fun for me and I rarely earn money I don't think it is a complete waste of money and time.
