Slots are probably the worst type of gaming you can do. Terrible odds and is way too quick. A lot of bets take a while to play out where as ots takes all of about 10 seconds to win/lose. Terrible game.

Agreed with you.
But for some reasons a lot of people prefer slots and dice to something more complicated (like poker). At least in the online .and western world. In Asia there is a little bit different story with all of this.
The game is really too quick, you can lose all your bank in few minutes (especially in online casinos, where the probability to win is extremely low). In offline slots, with 75 % prob of winning (Las Vegas, where it all highly regulated) there is a little different story

Maybe there is such a difference in the winning probability on the Western nations and the Asian part. Lot of people prefer Dice and slot which is all because of the chance of winning in big multiple. Quite often we can see big hits from slots on livestream, which too a reason for being more addictive than other games. In my view slot is not for the small level gamblers, it is for the users who prefer to gamble with high bankroll.

Slot games is one of the most riskiest game it is all about a small chance of winning but these winnings can be a large profit of course, and it will depend on the risk of the amount for a bet the larger the profit, if you want to have a lesser risk i guess having a players interaction is the most ideal one such as the sportsbook and table top games like cards with that still at your own decision not base on the luck of the rotations.

A question to slots players out there, have you ever felt the uncontrollable urge to gamble after exposing yourself to slots games for a long period of time? How did you manage to keep sane after being exposed to the most addictive gambling game in the industry?

I answered slot gambling for me is just like playing games to entertain myself in my spare time.. I've been playing slot for a long time but I never expected a win from slot, if I get a win I think it's just a bonus from playing games.. if I lose I also never the emotion to continue to deposit to continue the game. so I can still control my control by assuming gambling is just a game to fill my spare time

Yes the nature of that game is such that it may create addiction much easier than other because the lights, the sounds, the fight against the machine tends to attrack player that somehow get hooked on it, despite of being an extremely simplistic game and well know because there is no real way of winning in the long term, not like poker or even some blackjack in certain cases.

That's obvious. Casinos will provide or add other games to attract gamblers to always gamble at their casinos. But slots are not the only gambling games that can make people addicted to playing them again because sports betting, blackjack, poker or other gambling games can also make people come back and become more addicted to playing them. But we should admit that slots with so many different looks do make people addicted to keep playing them and with small bets, people can play for a long time.

Oh wow that's a big surprise to me, had no idea slot machines where so addictive. If you had asked me before I would have said that sports betting is much more addictive. Personally I like to do both but wouldn't say that I am addicted to either one. If I had to choose between the two I would probably pick sport betting because it's more fun and also more profitable. Slot machines are very common in my country, you can see them in many bars and every time I go drinking with friends with we spend a couple of Euros on them. The thing with slots is that we never really take any profits, if we win something we just spend it on more spins. In sports betting it's different, I like to take profits and save them. The idea is to one time win the jackpot on a slot machine, whereas the winnings on sports you already know when placing the bet. In my country I see many more people outside of the sport betting places than at a slot machine.

Really? big surprise? But, I think it was a no-brainer that slots are considered to be one of the addictive gambling games because one is it was so easy to play and second is its catchy graphics and sound, third is this is classic. On most places slot machines where scattered but now it is revolutionized thanks to the internet and cryptocurrencies.

We can think that the game that we are hooked on are much more addictive than to slots because why would we become addicted to it in the first place? Not only the jackpot but it's also possible to win big on slots. That is if you bet more.

Any form of gambling can be addictive and gambler is the person who should be in charge go control such urges to chase losses or deposit too much. Slots have higher house edge, so it is logical to say higher house edge games will go dry longer than original house games standing 1% house edge. Especially some promotions require catching 100x+ on particular slots but I have personally spun over 4k spins without 100x bonus round on base game hit on slot.

On this reason why slots are more addictive is because there's a science behind it and I think we can't argue with that. I agree about the visuals and audios of it. They truly are addicting and you're likely to look for it again and again after you've just played. But you are not wrong too, anything can form addiction depending to the gambler and how he's exactly making himself entertained from playing any of those. There's also science with it because of the emotion that each play gives to us. Some are for interaction like for poker, some are for the quick results and automatic bets for dice and so on and so forth. The differences that we've got for our own thoughts to be entertained and the research and studies connect it all especially we're more enjoying with those musics, there's really science behind those background music for each game.

Unlike betting on sports where we need to wait for games we wish to bet on, slots are available 24/7!

Though slot are available for 24/7, but you aren't allowed to play 24/7 without any break, because AFAIK some casinos accuse the account using a robot or any kind software since they think it's not a human.

I meant to say we can play slots at any time, is it a day or night, Monday or Sunday... slots are always available, an extensive choice of slots! We can't say the same for sports games, League games are primarily on weekends, and big cups have their timing... you can decide to bet on sports on Monday at 2 am, but on what choice of games can you count? I hope you get me now..

A wide variety of slots we do have currently in the market today with different providers and its true that you could play anytime and anywhere you do want which means that
accessibility is there and totally different if you do deal up with sports betting.When it comes to gambling problem then it would really vary because it wasnt just right
that it would only be only took on the blame on slot games only considering that entertainment and thrill could be both felt on different type of games
that we do have in the market today.

1xBit.. recovered their reputation

Quote

In terms of casinos, slots are the most popular casino game in the three English-speaking countries of the US, the UK, and Australia. The latest estimate is that this is the preference of 53% of all casino players

These are the statistics I read. besides slots, the second most played is the lottery. slots are the easiest and most profitable of all types of games in the casino (as opposed to crash game and dice)

I really like slots and lottery but not really addicted to it

I am sure, we will have huge number of games like slots in future. Market is focusing on how to bring in people to their platform. They do all kinds of research to convince people on their products by all those graphics and lightnings and etc. They make the environment in such a way, every unique personality gets attracted to it. Like, slots, casinos, jacks, betting sites and etc, we will have more stuffs where people will invest and get addicted to it. So slot is another step forward in bringing in more people.

talking about slot games, these days ago I went to the market in my neighborhood and entered a slot machine, I asked the owner of the machine: " aren't you afraid of the government asking you and giving you a fine and taking that machine away from you?" and he said: " I'm not afraid, they don't show up here ". then I left but I couldn't get the image that was in my head of last month when the government of my country started to collect all the slot machines that were illegally on the street, curious about all this and that doesn't get out of my head and that when the government of my country started to collect the illegal slot machines that were on the streets, when they opened the machines they found a lot of money, but the machines were located in very poor neighborhoods. ie? people took all the money they had to play. slot and the kind of games that can easily create addicts

The problem with this illegally placed slot machine is that most patronizers are childrens. Children who go to school, save their meal budgets and rush to the slot machine when school ends. People who work don't have free time to play, I bet they rather spend their money on booze and relax than play in that kind of environment. Maybe adult bystanders or people who really love gambling. Government must really crack this kind of illegal placements of slots machine in the neighborhood because it is slowly destroying children's future and at the same time it steals the supposed revenue of the legal gambling operators and the taxes.

Addiction to something happens because the sufferer feels comfortable, full of satisfaction (dopamine effect) when doing that. slots feature amazing animations and also great prizes easily if the player is lucky. I don't like slots but for lottery and soccer betting, I really love and feel addicted Grin

Just because it's easy to do doesn't mean you need to play it every day and that's what most people became after they suffered such addiction from playing slot machines. some of them are buried in debt because of these small matters that they could have avoided if they remained patient about their life. Slots are addictive because the environment where they put them has lots of people enjoying what they are doing at the moment but in reality, most of them are soon to suffer some serious depression when they lose everything they have in this tricky game.

Especially for the women. Not to judge all women but its just that I have already heard form Joe Rogan interview about women got addicted to gambling and most of the time they started with slot machine, just drinking their coffee beside it while playing slot machine. And then eventually just keep doing it every night til they upgrade to cards.

...gambling responsibly. Do not be addicted.

Quote from: molsewid on June 12, 2022, 09:38:10 AM

And responsible gamblers knows how to manage their emotions as well. When it comes to trading and gambling there's no big difference at all, people would likely to spend more if a well-known or an influencer promotes a certain website. But any form of gambling game can be addictive , we need to learn how to manage this emotion so that it could not make harm to us, sometimes this neurotransmitter make us to bet more for us to feel more alive and bet more to make us feel happy.

When I gambled responsibly, I saw no emotions involved, when I was gambling irresponsible before, emotions and losses were involved. Let me say I have $500 as my weekly salary (though not that amount as I collect lesser than that), I take 1% which is $5 to gamble, until the following week, how can I have emotion about losing $5 from $500, it is not possible. No emotion involved in responsible gambling in my opinion.
