Because we think that the casino is using patterns as well. Some people recall the results and spend time analyzing them until they come to the point that there is a pattern being applied and they try to use it in actual gambling. However, the results seem too far from what we expect and it comes to my mind that whatever we do -strategies and patterns, this won't increase our chance of winning. The thing that could help us is to have luck, nothing else. Yet, that was too hard to get as it comes unexpectedly as well.
I agree, it may seems that our strategy can be useful sometimes and we will use that thing for so long even though it is not helpful anymore and that could be bad because we will deny that our trick is no longer useful , we should trust our luck and just enjoy the game. I may agree that at some point all our strategies will be useful but it will end eventually.

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.

Gambling? It's like a tremendous, mysterious chocolate box, folks. You never know, but with strategy, you can boost your chances of sweet victory, or a winning streak, bigly. Think of it as chess, predicting opponents' moves. But there's a twist, a blend of luck and tactics. Imagine Mario Kart and Scrabble had an incredible, unpredictable offspring! Feeling lucky? Go ahead, toss those dice, whirl the wheel, or unveil the card. Who knows? You might strike gold, and etch your name in gambling history. Believe me!
like looking for a golden needle in a huge haystack. as long as we continue to search carefully and thoroughly like gambling, we will definitely find that luck.but here the problem is that sometimes every gambler has a slightly strange psychological habit in every bet they make, such as using patterns in slot games and pressing the bet button before the reels stop. this is a psychological habit that gamblers may become addicted to because this habit seems like something comfortable to do.
I mean, I'm pretty sure deep down that most people believe that the "patterns" they found in gambling are just absolutely random bs that they use to increase their confidence in actually winning. Plus, it also serves as an additional reason to blame when you lose, like oh it's because this tip I got to do x thing while doing y thing was just a fake kind of idea.
But anyway, on the topic of patterns, dumb as it is, it's usually a pattern of win streaks/lose streaks for me. It's like I always have that dumb ass mindset that after some random number of losses (which I get from who knows where at the time really) I'd make a comeback, so I keep playing the same game. This only happens on games I really enjoy though, so it's not that bad.
If they think it's BS they will never use or believe on it. Not all patterns are found randomly but a gambler can record his gambling activity to have an accurate pattern. They will then use it and expect the same outcome will come out as the past. There are times that they will win again but it does not mean their patterns are working fine. They win because they only got lucky.But anyway, on the topic of patterns, dumb as it is, it's usually a pattern of win streaks/lose streaks for me.

To have a confidence in gambling is important because you know what actions you will be doing and you will never regret and say that you should choose the other one that's on your mind earlier but confidence can come in within our own self. No need to fake it by using patterns.
As humans, we are conditioned to look for patterns in life and we gamblers try to make predictions based on what we see, while we are gambling. The reality is that these patterns does not exist, but we like to pretend that they do because it helps us to bring order to the chaos that are gambling. 
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.
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 ...)
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.

Gambler's Fallacy basically. Our pattern-loving brains making a fool out of us and making us believe that just because a particular outcome hasn't happened in a while, would equate to meaning it would happen soon, which is just wrong and is a fool's way of thinking in my opinion.

As for your friends' being iffy with the auto-spin feature of the slots they play. That's a little stupid too as you put it lmao. If the casino could rig their machines to favor them when a gambler uses auto-spin, what makes them safe from getting ripped off by the casino with the manual spin as well? And for that matter why are they playing in a casino that they do not trust?
As for me, I often fall victim to gambler's fallacy, especially back in the days when I don't know better. I used to gamble a lot on dice and hi-lo, as well as slots, which are very prone to this type of Fallacy. I crank the lever, lose, and say to myself that "since the jackpot's not come this turn, maybe in the next couple of spins I'd get it" only to be disappointed over and over again.
on the time that you do make out bets but you are just putting up your bets without having no emotion or doesnt really think off for some strategy or somewhat correlated to this which
it do really remove out that general essence on whats the real purpose of gambling in the first place.Of course we do really like to win up and this is where we do think up on testing some strategies
which it would really be just a normal approach. Some are already that knowing that it is really not that something that could work because gambling is totally random
and you cant really be that lucky as always so its a normal approach and normal dealing where you would be testing out countless strategies until you would see that one of them do work and
that what makes you happy.

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.

I only have betting strategies and using martingale strategy at times after I knew it is very risky.
Most of my strategies is about how to risk little and lose little or to gain little, not even martingale that can go wrong at times and lead to big loss.
Betting should be fun, when using just little amount of money, not going beyond the budget set for it and if I noticed that I am winning as I am gambling, not that I am losing all the time which can make me suspect something wrong going on. I do not think there are superstitious ways to win casino games.
For me personally I don't prefer Martingale strategy at all because you are at risk of losing more with it but don't know how some players find it good because they want to win no matter how much they wager.I am also of the opinion that you place small bets and even if you have decent win not too big that's really good for you giving you joy instead of losing more in high hopes. Most of my strategies is about how to risk little and lose little or to gain little, not even martingale that can go wrong at times and lead to big loss.

I also know a lot of people who think that the auto spin thing is real and they can actually get better results if they spin it manually instead of putting it on auto mode which is obviously a myth but people won't believe it.
It's totally a myth. We're just having that feeling that we thought that something is wrong because we have put it on auto and what an another coincidence if we did it manually and the results are perfect and good for us.
I've also heard people saying that betting higher increases your chances of winning which as you said is wrong and it only increases your winnings and not the chances of winning.
That's another myth and wants other to have that YOLO mentally. Because whether you bet high or low, the chance doesn't change but the risk you take is still the same.

Depending on gambling in the first place is never a good thing. Betting some would be fine as long as you can bear losing. No matter what game you engage yourself with, whether cardgame, dice game, sportsbetting and such; winning won't be certain. So choose what would give you enjoyment atleast, 'coz that would make your bets more worthy. What makes gambling bad in the first place is gambler's assumption of getting rich in an instant. This is more likely because of stories wherein players have earned huge reward from playing, without considering how much that player have lost during the 'run'. Everything would be based from luck or one's fate.
No one is immune from gambling as long as they have a hobby in sports, but to what extent can people be responsible for the gambling decisions they choose? This is what you have to avoid, namely the mindset of getting rich quick without working smart at all like the fairy tales that we often hear behind the success of people at gambling. More precisely people can't avoid gambling if they don't want to, there is one piece of advice that I often hear "Habit will lead you to addiction".Therefore avoid irresponsible gambling, gamble only when you can afford to lose money and avoid interpreting gambling very close to wealth. In fact, getting rich does not happen because relying solely on luck and engaging in gambling using small amounts of money will not make people richer either.

Mate I agreed with some of your sayings and disagreed with some. In the psychology of betting, every gambler has their ways of thinking and methods of betting. That is why a bet that favour one gambler does not favour another gambler. Gambling methods are different from each other. And also the prediction we made have never come in tally with one another. I agreed with you on the second paragraph. Really people are saying that the bigger you bet the bigger you win and that has led many gamblers to loss money. That is a fantasy story. There are some gamblers that use a small amount of money and still win big. So one can win big with any amount of stake.
Yeah, one can indeed, win big with any amount of stake, but understand that winning big with a small amount of money simply means that, the odds of the game has to be very big, and you and I know that the higher the odds, the more risky the bet is, that is, the higher your chances of losing your money.This is exactly what happens with multi bets, that is having multiple bets on one slip, depending on how many the game is and their respective odds, the final odds grows high which give one a chance of winning really big amount of money even with a very little amount at stake, but then also, the chances of losing the bet is also very high.

I personally don't see any patterns, I do believe in stuff like when you are losing consecutively, you better stop for a while and restart your session after some time so that you mind is relaxed and you might gain some luck by then.

The Psychology of betting does not really exist there is no right pattern in playing gambling but patterns only help us decide what we should do, I have played a lot of types of casino games but the key purpose was not to get rich but to be accommodated by the pattern of how would you play it, Well suggestion and recommendation are all correct not all technique will work for that certain person, and not all pattern will be effective for everyone, the key technique for me is a mindset and for you to not get addicted is the mindset to think that not all gambling type will make you rich, there are sure people getting rich and lucky about it, that is just bonus in playing, but don't expect that if you play that it will be eventually a game-changing for them,
Casino - All casino's are random you just need to have a mindset that all Casino platforms can not make you rich and lessen the budget you are using in playing it, and a mindset in playing it to be fun,
Sportsbet - Sportsbets are easier to predict if you got certain knowledge about the kind of game, teams, players, fighters, and so on, you can accumulate more wins however all bets will be a great win there are times that it will still be base on luck,

Right! Because if there's really a pattern about betting and it works with everyone else then I don't think we will have dozens of online/offline casinos emerging everywhere in the world. No such billionaires will dive in into that kind of business because their profits are already not guaranteed, and they don't have what we call house edge. But that wasn't really the case, psychology betting is just how we would like to believe things and not really to improve our chances against the bookies or casinos.
For me, it's just a charm for us to help us be confident on our bets because we believe on such things. And talking about the types of betting, I'm a sports betting type of person because that's where my chances are average compared to luck-based games.
Honestly, I also bet manually as I believe there are also patterns. I like losing 5 bets for example and then I will double the amount of my bet for the next 3. But that's only for Dice and not Slots. Somehow it is successful but it's difficult to win bigger amounts as it gets frustrating sometimes and you just want to bet higher.
About the betting high amount for a higher chance to win? I have a different belief about that. The higher your bet is, the lower the chance for it to win.
I tested it with dice too. Whenever I bet 10x larger after the 5 consecutive losses in a small amount, it's still always a lost round. I even did twice 10x and it's still a loss.
You are correct, there are really no patterns but some gamblers keep on going because they believe it exists. Take out that belief from them and they might find another game.

We do have our own strategies or pre game rituals that we though it can boost our luck like the auto spin in slots which i do agree and i dont really use auto spin and that is my preference and also I've enjoy hitting the button though. It doesn't matter if it is just a myth or we do have bases on it as long as we just thought that it makes us lucky then give us a go. I dont have really strategies in gambling , i just stick on playing it for entertainment though but for lottery i do have like calculation and etc.
the psychological aspect in betting is fundamental.
I would dare to define it as the basis of casinos. After all, if you think about it, we all know that...the more you play, the more you will lose and the chances of winning the "big jackpot" are close to zero and yet....
always on the same subject, some casinos have introduced the possibility of pressing the stop on a roulette wheel while it is spinning because it actually "gives the idea of having control over what is happening". Of course it doesn't change anything, the result is predetermined, but this deludes the user into having "control" over what's going on.

I'm always on the belief that gambling in its entirety is absolutely on luck and little skills and experience. Patterns do not always work either while unplanned decisions sometimes work out. Sports betting can be easy to predict per say but for the prediction to come through is mysterious. However, one should not even have a thought of becoming rich by gambling. It's never an investment that one should expect a return and having high hopes on it will cause mental discomfort.
pressing the bet button before the reels stop, I always do that every time I play a slot game and I try to stop without doing that like feeling dissatisfied. maybe I'm addicted to psychological habits 
every gambler always has psychological habits like that which make gamblers feel satisfied doing those things. maybe it's true that some thoughts like that are a myth, but there are still many gamblers who do it for satisfaction in every betting session.
