so the best ability to play The slots is the availability of time and money, the tricks come later.  Smiley
Yes, time is important since slots is a long game. With a decent bankroll, I can spend 7-8 hours in one session. Time flows differently in a slots game so you should schedule your session wisely.

But it is still unbelievable for me to get not even 1 single scatter in 150 spins. Never experienced such bad thing in my slot gambling journey for years. It is usual to get no free spins within 150spins, but not even single scatter? Still waiting the answer from ShowOff on which slot he experienced, even an extreme volatility slot is rare to get no single scatter within 150 spins.
Theoretically, I believe it can happen, but in reality, we rarely observe this thing. Perhaps ShowOff only exaggerates his bad luck. I think I had this no scatter session, but perhaps it was less than 100 spins. I didn't count, really. It's on games that only has scatters on line 2, 3, 4 or only on line 1 and 5.

The truth is, I don't have much experience in slot machines, I just know that with one shot you can get everything back and get huge profits by making small bets, some people in traditional casinos play day and night at the machines, giving it and trying their luck, Some make up to more than 1000 spins and keep trying, this is something very common in slots, in fact I only use the slots to de-stress myself, and I really like the ones on bitcasino.io and stake.com, they are really a great experience.


You actually mentioned the experience you have to have, make spins.
I think what you have to have is a bankroll control and an adequate size of bets, that is basic for any casino game, so the best ability to play The slots is the availability of time and money, the tricks come later.  Smiley

I could only last 150 spins without getting a scatter. That sucks, of course.
It doesn't matter if in 100 or 1,000 spins, you cannot get a scatter. It only matters if you get (usually) minimum three scatters. Sometimes I spent 1-2 hours in a session full of single and double scatters, but never all three scatters came out Grin Sometimes out of nothing you will get bonus round in less than 10 spins, sometimes in 1,000 spins you'll get no bonus round, it's completely random. What you can notice is, the system almost always gives intermediary wins, whether it's 10% or 1,000% of your wager, it's completely random as well. Who knows man, maybe on your 151th spin, you'll get all five/six scatters. That's the beauty of slots Grin

I don't have as much self control as you and that is why I have quit playing slots,not totally but from being a slot addict.I like the strategy with the minimum bet as a start and you progress up with much higher bet if you are lucky to win big with the minimum bet.Of course to win big with the minimum bet amount you need games that can give you bonus games with multipliers up to 1000x and those are my favorite slots.I occasionally still play slots to have some fun but as soon as I notice a continuous losing pattern I immediately quit.

Do you mean not even single scatter in 150 spins? Frankly I cant believe it, but it is possible although the the chance to not hit even a single scatter in 150 spins is so low. What slot you are referring to? I have never experienced such bad streak without a scatter, a scatter should be easy to come but scatters (3-5) as a requirement to get the free spins is harder.

Not even one scatter Symbole in 150 spins seems very unlucky. Not sure what the chances are up get a scatter but it's definitely higher than than in his last session. It seems that chances for getting 5 scatters is  0.000016, so very low. But the chances to get 3 scatters is much higher. Pretty sure if he would play another 150 spins he would get all the scatters he missed out previously. I  not really playing so much spots lately but I tend to always get a some bonuses. Free spins are usually programmed into the games and come after a certain number of spins. For a casino having free spins for slots is a good way to keep players engaged and interested for more.

The last time I played the slot was in October, I could only last 150 spins without getting a scatter. That sucks, of course.

Anyway, do you feel this year (especially in December) slots results aren't as good as last year? I feel last year is much better, but we still have like 16 days, so I might be wrong.
I haven't regularly played the slot so far and I can't remember how many times I've played it in the last year. So I can't compare them now. ha ha ha
Maybe @Roycilik can answer that for you as I know he's had a lot of luck in the slots so far. The last time I played the slot was in October, I could only last 150 spins without getting a scatter. That sucks, of course.

I really doubt that being a veteran gambler is any kind of indicator for emotional stability.
LoL, Veteran means survived enough sh*t and still active in gambling. If someone survived bad days, sad days, you name it, it's a good indicator of stability.
Some might not survive, and I call them "fallen gamblers."

Chasing losses is never been a good behavior as a gambler because this would really trigger out those emotions which would lead to more mistakes.
Panjul is a veteran gambler with lots of experience, so I won't question his emotional control and stuff.

However, even veteran gamblers may not used to deal with "cold period" of slots games. It's a quite long period of slots rekt that demotivates player from playing the game (retired) or make them not patient enough to wait for the "hot period" thus they burn more money than their gambling budget. For me, I just play with my budget as usual. For sure, it's just "for fun" budget.

I really doubt that being a veteran gambler is any kind of indicator for emotional stability. What if he had a really bad day, his wife leaves him, somebody in the family/friends die, he loses his job? One bad day is all somebody need to lose control and lose a lot of money gambling. I think everybody has had moments like these or even worse. They decide to go with emotions. Its just human nature, regardless of how experienced they are.

Since I'm the one mentioned to be veteran by mu_enrico so let me tell you how I deal with gambling activity when I had a very bad day.
Luckily I'm not that stupid to do gambling when I'm in a very bad situation in my life.
I'm gambling when my emotion is stable enough or when I have nothing to worry in IRL.

am I the only one who finds high variance slots can be much less money burner ?
kinda find that if someone plays low variance slots that has frequent low wins tends to lose more for simply not winning enough of money even with same RTP , like if you win 200x or something similar you may just keep wagering and wagering  ( 200x of spin of course not bankroll  Cheesy )

while in high variance slots you will either lose fast or win big at someday , and usually when someone hits big he will make a cashout instantly unlike the hits with low variance ones
so you kinda save your luck for the big hits to cashout , while with low variance players tend to play much more and wager more amount of money

probably that's why I like jammin jars and dead or alive 2 but I rarely play slots

Pardon me? Veteran? LOL
You might be right but maybe I do not have better THEORIES about gambling than those who like to say wonderful words about gambling and its related stuff.
I cant deny that it is still hard for me to control my own emotion but as long as I'm not breaking my own limit, I do not really care about my emotion. Smiley

^ I cant comment to above winners, cant give my own screenshot of nice winning.
This week or maybe even for a month is really bad for me in slot games especially in Stake.
Deposits, bonuses, reload, bonus drop were all busted easily without any good hit.
I think I should leave Stake for a while and move to other casinos, or maybe I should play other games.


You should not play in a consecutive way,if you see that you keep losing it is better to quit for a bit and take a good rest before coming back,you will see that things can change when your brain is more concentrated than not,also you will be more focused on where to quit and call it a day,if you keep playing continuously it is only natural to keep losing,that is my personal experience back when I used to play slots,it is a long time since I don't play anymore.

Many chase because they think about they can overcome their losing streak and recover back their losses without even thinking that they are losing to much, this losing streak will continue if a gambler choose to continue since they cannot focus anymore on their plays since what inside in their minds is to win and get back their money. To avoid this to happen and to possibly get what losses we have better to quite then on the next day take a revenge and think calmly when playing.

Never ever consider on making constant profits or money with gambling because this isnt how it works and if you are really that eager on tolerating your
emotion then you would really be losing big time.

Slots are for fun and never ever those so called strategies do work because every spin would be random.

I did not say that I play consecutively, I said week/month means that it is an overall stats during that time frame.
Even if I played one time only during November and I lost all my money then I'll say I have bad result in that month.
I know how to control my gambling activity and I'll always stay in my own limit both limit of time and money.

I still remember you got max hit or so on BK8 while I got rekt on every deposit. It's just the way slots work, my friend, you will win and the lose, lose, lose, and then win again. Repeat in endless cycle Grin

I played on Stake last night, and gain some insight since they support cheap IDR bet. I did countless 20K and 40K IDR Bonus Buy to realize that the losing streak can be so long, but if you keep playing, you will get it back, sometimes less, sometimes equal, sometimes more than your total losses. My deposit was only 1,000K IDR, and it almost got busted, so if you play using USD with minimum bet, $1,000 total loss is normal before bouncing back.

Anyway, switching casino temporary can give you different feeling/mood, so it's recommended. But changing game, unfortunately, there's no way out from slots Grin
Hopefully, the force will be with you again soon.
