Topic: The psychology of betting..... - page 5. (Read 1026 times)
That's funny that you bring up the pressing of buttons versus pulling the slot lever when playing slots machines as being considered a "strategy" for some gamblers. I have been to in person casinos before and had friends who did the same exact thing. I of course just laughed at them. I don't think they necessarily thought that it would give them a better chance at winning, but it was more of a "good luck" type deal, where as you state...simply a psychological deal.
People always talk about strategy in gamble but I disagree because bet does not have strategy because the more you think you know the more you fail, even when you consistently play a particular odd that favours you one day you will get the greatest shock in the game because it will fail.
if you are betting on luck-based games, there's no known strategy that can indeed guarantee your winnings. but you can work with some of the popular ones like martingale, however, you also have no way in knowing when will luck will hit you. so yeah, games of chance, don't expect you will go home as a winner.
people should accept the fact that when in gambling, always use your spare money, otherwise you are subjecting yourself to getting rekt if you will use your money for your bills or for your food.
This is where people should really be wary of on which there's no such thing about strategy or ways on how to make yourself at advantage in speaking about those coded or programmed applications or machines which
there's no way for us to tell if those are fair ones or not.We've seen that there are people who do win up and this what makes us to be interested or really spark out our emotions and this is why we wont really be that mindful much when it comes to fairness.Its a common human being approach specially if you arent that having the past experience of these slot games.
You would really be most likely be going or continue to play without minding about its fairness as long you do see that there are lots of people who had been playing around or sticking with it.
As long you would really be that dealing on a place where popularity and recognition is high then it would really be that sufficient thing for you to get convinced that they are really indeed fair.
Some people are really just that too paranoid when it comes to fairness issue but im not really blaming them considering in todays lots of situation
where trust is always and issue.
Its sad that many people believe ui and obvious code works at the same time and can't tell their difference. I think people are too much visually addicted so they don't understand what's going inside. Also people just go look around casinos or gambling websites only to win. They count themselves unlucky if they can't. Some claim all games are rigged against us. Its very sad that some gamblers have very weak mentality. I hope people develop themselves.
I don't bet on any other games than football because it's my favorite sport, so I waste a lot of time there. However, the only betting method I know is how to analyze a team that is playing the game I want to bet on. And I used to wager a lot, but now I don't since I don't trust gambling, so even if I lose the money, it won't be too much as if I bet a lot.Well, I can't fault those who have gambling strategies because that is their decision and how they believe it will work out for them. However, if I want to gamble and use someone else's strategies, it might not work out for me because that person is the owner of the strategies or I might know a little bit about the method, which could lead to me losing my money even though we all know that's how gambling works.
There are a lot of factors that affect the outcome of a bet. For example, you can bet on an odds of 1.5 or 2.5, If you are lucky enough, you can bet on a bet of $1,000 or $2,000, which is a lot of money in the long run.
Have you pressed the "bet" button, before the reels have stopped.. thinking that it will give you a favorable outcome on your bet? Well, I have news for you... the outcome has been decided in milliseconds after you pressed the button for the bet, the GUI interface happens long after that to display the outcome of the bet to you.

I wasn't sure if this is really the case, it definitely makes the most sense. The code behind the casino games should know instantly if we lost or won, and only takes a longer time to display the results to make it more interesting and exciting for us. Slot machines are very visual games that use different themes to attract players. Even in online roulette games I would expect it to be the same. It's only in physical casinos where we have to wait for the wheel to stop spinning before we can see who won and who lost. Like your friends I also don't like the autoplay button and always spin myself. It's more time consuming but I feel more in control and can stop when winning some money. So far I haven't noticed any patterns in slot games and aren't really looking for some. My favourite pattern in gambling is at roulette to pick the opposite color when there are 6-7 reds or blacks in a row. This is of course superstitious and no real pattern.

I agree with the proposition that we as humans are conditioned to seek patterns in life because the evolutionary process has programmed us in a way that compels us to establish causal relationships between events. However, I don't use very specific methods. I only take a little break from betting when I have suffered large losses. This way, I get some rest and have a calmer mind when I bet again.

Gambling is a form of entertainment that should be approached with caution and with the understanding that it is primarily a game of chance. While some strategies may increase your chances of winning, there is no foolproof method that guarantees success. It is always important to gamble responsibly and only use money that you can afford to lose. Using your spare money ensures that you won't put yourself in financial jeopardy, which is crucial when it comes to gambling. Remember, the goal of gambling should be to have fun and enjoy the experience, not to make a profit.

Some people seem to think that your bet size will increase your chances to win, but that is simply a myth. The reality is that it simply means your payouts will be bigger when you do win.
Bet size has nothing to do with the probability of you winning on any staked game.... Yunno, everything about gambling is manually driven by greed - since man's want is insatiable, it'll simply create an impression of having a maneuver or quicker possibilities of Having a good outcome, Which Is not entirely true.Quote

Dude, there are no tricks to winning on casinos.... everything happens by chance,...it's that simple. Nobody is noted for Staking multiple times already - so the casino would atleast compensate him for Staking too much without winnings, NOBODY. Winning comes by chance!...

I still remember the day when the Sweet Bonanza slot of Pragamtic has failed me after 60 bonus buys on the martingale system bets. I can't get the point of why one slot gonna be so bad even after so many bonus buys, if RTP is based on the gameplay it shouldn't drain my balance in so many bonus buys. Maybe I was doing something wrong but only thing I learned that day was if the slot doesn't pay in the first 5 bonus buys then it is a waste of money to keep chasing bigger. Some users even lose their life savings to look for some patterns on either slots or dice, we have to respect our financial limits in such situations in order to prevent worst-case scenarios.

A lot of my friends believe that it is better to spin the Slots manually, because "Auto spin" are rigged by the casinos... but that is also a myth. A lot of things come into play when a bet is made and it has nothing to do with the "auto bet" feature. (Client Seed / Server Seed & RNG and RTP ...)

(Go into the developer mode of your browser to see this) When I play some games/providers at BC with "'live stats" on, I see the result of the spin/bonus round on the live stats right away. So yes, when we press the bet button the outcome is already determined.
And nothing helps with slots, it's either our lucky day or not. I had many lucky and unlucky days, with manual/auto/buying bonuses, when it comes to slots.
What patterns do you see and how much do you believe in it?
I guess there are patterns everywhere, even in gambling. I believe there are... and most of the time we see them and we even have some nice hits, but the problem with lucky-based games is usually greediness. When profit is insignificant and we wish for more and when after some big win we think we can win even more.
The conclusion is simple, play just with the money you can afford to lose! That way you can have fun with your amount and you can allow yourself to risk and get some excitement from that, even if you win or lose. But don't let yourself get carried away by gambling and think that there is a quick profit in gambling after some nice win, that thinking leads people into trouble. Learn from other people's mistakes.
I don't see a pattern in playing gambling and just press the "bet" or "Spin" button and then submit to the results that will come out.
If I just pay attention or make a pattern, I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy gambling itself and will only waste my time gambling.
But I guess some gamblers do it because they have their own reasons and we can't blame them because it's their choice.
I also often hit the "Auto 50x, 100x, or other" button and just sit back, enjoy my coffee, and watch the results.
Whether the pattern exists or is just our imagination, our job is only to enjoy gambling as a temporary pleasure and when it's all over, we have to stop.
Others might have seen patterns from betting but for me, I don’t think they do exist. Gambling is very uncertain so it’s hard to see patterns on it, one thing that is only certain for me is that in gambling, it’s always the house that takes the edge and able to win. So whether you bet in slots or sports betting, it does not guarantee that you have bigger chances to win from sports betting than slots. Gambling is just a matter of luck, whether it has patterns or not, gambling will only make us lose until our funds will be used up. If I just pay attention or make a pattern, I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy gambling itself and will only waste my time gambling.

We all look for those patterns, even though such "patterns" don't really exists. It's just a human nature and a way of giving them a "hope" when they start losing. And yeah, people do think that if they bet more, they will eventually win, or if they are in a huge red streak, the next bet will more likely be a winning bet, the autospin feature is rigged (might be.. who knows...) or if you bet high, you start losing. But most of these aren't true and its all in peoples head. Everything depends on the RTP and the randomness of the result.
Yeah, I do used to hit the bet button and try to stop the wheel at the perfect combination, even though I did know that all the results are determined as soon as you hit the spin button and the spinning slots are just animations.
Only those who are wise enough look for patterns because they are also desperate to improve while the rest is just going with the flow. What I know is that patterns are a repeated action. It is done step by step and it is real but it's hard for it to work in gambling because of its unpredictable state/nature. To have a hope is not wrong. It helps us to push further and sometimes we can still recover and end up with a profit but we can't experience this if we stop early.Yeah, I do used to hit the bet button and try to stop the wheel at the perfect combination, even though I did know that all the results are determined as soon as you hit the spin button and the spinning slots are just animations.
Those on your second sentence are not true. It's just a false belief but I know, many gamblers still carry that mindset up until now. As for your last sentence, I think you are just bored or sometimes desperate. I did that sometimes in different games but I know they are just animations which does not affect the game at any way.
Out mind is just looking for a possible instant where we can have an advantage so when it is delivered on some pattern, we thought that we find the secret pattert to succes but eventually, our bankroll will get depleted using that key to success thing.
That only happens because we don't understand the basics gambling and math behind it. Everyday people re-discover martingale and other crap strategies like it. When they find out about it, first they think they are onto something that nobody knows about and it is going to make them rich. They try and see that's not happening and they are indeed not the first people who discovered these "strategies". If they are stubborn about it, they will try other "strategies", other patterns which are also derived from the original martingale... and they will fail as well. If they are smart enough, they will realize that they ain't getting rich this way. If not, they will keep playing till they lose everything they got.
I completely agree with the author of this thread. As far as I know, everything is our brain's fault, which builds logic chains. And such logical chains are built all the time, even where there is no logical connection. So you just need to know this and not rely on something that does not really exist.
I have a positive attitude to auto bets because sometimes it's just boring to click the mouse and this feature adds only extra comfort during the game.

If you are that someone who does have that kind of thinking on which you are really that trying to pursue on making things to work.We know that luck isnt something that we could really be able to influence nor able to control and since we are doing or engaging with gambling then we know that it is really that a huge factor for us to win. There's no such thing about superstitious beliefs or behavior or whatever things that you would
do for you to make yourself having that advantage or making yourself to have that winning phase or condition. Just go with the real essence of gambling which is for entertainment and never expect or anticipate
about having that sure win because this would really be just creating that kind of desperation which is something that we should really need to avoid.
Play according into your leisure needs and play according to entertainment. Gambling wasnt build for making people do make rich but rather it would really be just good for some past time.
Winning some money is really just that a bonus in overall and with this kind of mindset then you wont really be making yourself that addicted to it.
What patterns do you see and how much do you believe in it?
In a luck-based game patterns never exist, what's good for you today, maybe not good for you tomorrow or in the coming days, one example is the use of martingale this is the pattern or method commonly used by newbies because there is a logic behind it but logic do not apply in gambling when it comes to luck based game, unexpected things happen, this what makes gambling very exciting because you never know when you are going to hit the jackpot.
