Upon watching the video, I just realized that all of the things that the narrator stated actually is the exact thing that is happening in one of the famous casinos in the Philippines. It is very important to be psychologically ready when you enter the casinos. However the discussion is likely more on the Physical Casinos. I won't bother tho, If I spent a lot from the drinks, foods or rooms because for me this are a necessity
Does it means that Online Casinos take lesser amount of money because they can't do some of those strategies?

Not gambling seems to be the obvious choice here but there comes a time when you are going to have no option but to go to the casino and hope that your luck shines for just a single moment for you to win.But alas Luck is unpredictable like the ocean.
In my opinion, if you really have the hots for gambling, or have the drive to play in a casino then you only have that choice. It's up to you if you are still willing to risk it. For me, it's no harm if you just do it occasionally and not making it a true hobby. It's like saying that you always gamble, and we all know what happens if we continuously gamble... we lose.Not gambling seems to be the obvious choice here but there comes a time when you are going to have no option but to go to the casino and hope that your luck shines for just a single moment for you to win.But alas Luck is unpredictable like the ocean.
Maybe this is a human nature to always look for faster profit that in the end fail in every step is what we’ve got
Las Vegas takes it to another level compared to the rest of the world. There is just so much stimulation going to to distract you and I think the business owners in America are more ruthless about money. The funniest thing is supposedly they don't hang clocks inside because they don't want people to realize how long they have been gambling.

Just stumbled upon this video while surfing youtube out of boredom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXlLsg9t5jU&t=338s This really hits the spot and shows what really runs the gambling industry. No, it's not money addiction or the hobby to get rich. It's much more than that. It's very much psychological!
I don't know how much it's relevant to the online gambling scenarios but definitely worth checking it out.

Obviously, without the gambling players casino whether online or not they won't get any profit, for sure the house edge can't get any fund from the players. Especially in online once the online gamblers get in to their platform and deposit there is 100% waiting for sure for the house edge to get profit. But if the players are lucky, As far as I know they can able to control the games.
Yeah, but people are like to gamble so they come to the casino by online or offline and they play many games. The casino knows about that, so they give some bonus for the old members and new member to attract more people to comes. They will think to make another promotion to gain more visitor to come to their place so they can make more money. And if many casinos can do that, then that will be a competition among them to reach as much visitor as they can by giving so many bonuses to the visitor.
This reminds me of the way strip clubs operate. You might think that getting a lap dance is the most expensive thing and that clubs mainly make money from that and the tips, but no. People are focused on how much a dance costs more than on the price of the drinks and drinks are what makes it profitable for the club. They're at least 3 times more expensive than in a pub. Gamblers focus on the game they come to play, like roulette, but while they walk around they casually spend a while at a slot machine, order a few drinks, and don't even remember doing it because they came for roulette and that's all they think about all evening.
That is how gambling and many related businesses make money,they don't just offer a single service,I am going very far now but in Las Vegas you have hookers lying around the casinos and you can go upstairs easily in the hotel,it is much more than gambling and this is why these businesses make money easily.
on our place most casinos here are normaly operating without any gimmiks . they dont even have any special admissions or entrance fees . you can just go inside and play any games you want . casinos still earns money because there will always be more loosers more than winners .
its also normal that you can spend your money on the games that you dont think to spend with if there is no vancies on the game that you like to play but this is only applicable on live/offline casinos

Business is business, casino owners would love gamblers to get addicted to gambling because that’s when they can get money of profit from. They don’t mind anything else, all they have to do is set up a very good house edge and offer provably fair games to entice gamblers and gamblers will do the rest.
Yes, I would like to add that I do not blame the casino site, like you said and I agree, business is business. This people are doing everything within their means to maintain the profit base but then I feel sorry for the stupid players that would fall and keep on falling to this trick. It’s a pity I must say, and the worst of them all are those who claim to be playing for fun, like seriously??? Someone is somewhere making money on you and you are gladly happy paying in the name of having fun?? That’s one thing I dislike If casino houses are for profit making, then players should also be involved with the aim of making money. Let’s call a spade a spade, this people are extorting gullible users in the name of offering a platform for entertainment
Well The casino is a business establishment so what do you expect, A business needs to profit so they will sure do something to make a profit and even ending up a psychological technique to simply lure customers in playing in the casino, They will simply put what most people would like if not alcohol there will be beautiful women wandering around the casino and gamblers will accommodate them to impress them that they will make a win, But that's not the case because the house always wins and has a big edge in profiting than you, they will tend to exploit the weakness in the human brain to keep on playing, Well this video is very informative and can really help certain people who want to try to play on the casino.
That really the truth, because its a business that they should want to earn income, and that is there way or their techniques is to attract some gamblers. Therefore casinos dont mind if someone get addicted, only the important they earn. I like every strategy I see with gambling and I try to apply same to my businesses and its really helpful, this place is about learning and improving and this is what I have gained and still gaining in the time past.

A fool and his money is soon separated. Casino is all about fantasy. Everything is bright. All the women are beautiful. Every now and then someone wins the slots. It's a spectacle. I see this as no different from advertising.
Sell the experience, most people arent walking round with calculators trying to the exact best return for their money. Rings true that the incidental costs are where the greatest profits are, like how car retailers or even manufacturers are making the most money on the finance for the car more then premium of the car itself which could be quite tight in comparison. Servicing is another high premium area, because servicing a car is about the convenience, there is profit to make.
This is truly real about video,free or paid drinks still intoxicating and distracting while playing.Women also divert attention such as blinding the players' decisions so that they become greedy,different from online casinos which we really have to fear yeah,even though they get full trust but still fear when choosing in the wrong place.
Well that’s part of the business strategy that’s why Casinos are hiring Beautiful women’s and handsome guys with pay decent just to gain attraction from players.and in this way they can have some distractions on how players decide to betAnd right about the drinks that offers as free but added some blocking’s on mind if we get tipsy so basically there’s a trick that casino is using to win against players lol
I couldn't watch the video unfortunately but the idea i get from what I have read so far from the responses is that the casinos have crafty ways of luring gambling and getting them to gamble excessively.
The use of beautiful ladies is what I found most interesting. I have always wondered what beautiful ladies do in casino. Now it makes sense.
Well, gambling platform whether online or physical platform's goal is to earn profit from gamblers as fast as they can as many as they can. I think the use of beautiful ladies is to attract men and make them come to casino again. I think the casino owner would also hirr beautiful girls as the game's dealer like poker and other casino games in physical casino.The use of beautiful ladies is what I found most interesting. I have always wondered what beautiful ladies do in casino. Now it makes sense.
Casinos are the only business who don't care about you, because they keep encouraging you to play more despite that you lose big money already and for sure every casinos know that thing. There are so many ways for them to earn, but of course its already on their system and luck can only your chance to earn money as well. Its a win win situation for every casinos, that's why many investors are trusting this kind of business.
I beg to disagree, they are not the only business that does not care but they are the only business that customers fall more to their tricks. Every business man is concerned about himself and the growth of his business and would do everything possible to make clients come for purchase but at the end of the day, it’s always the choice of the clients but this is not the same with gambling. I really do not understand how gambling sites do it that despite how much lost by the players, they keep on playing and let’s be honest, casino operators do not encourage players to proceed with games when loosing excessively, it’s just the gamblers that choose to continue because of the fun in the games.
There are so many ways they make money aside what is lost by players, they make money from promotions and partnerships. It’s a good business

Not so much with online gambling imo but that comes with its own pitfalls, namely it's easier to spend money when you can't touch and see it physically (as credit card debts has shown us).
It's like having promo girls in car shows or in ads for unrelated products like beer. They're there to appeal to the libido.

Thanks for the share up and i can say this is more psychological which i do really agree on what are the facts being pointed out on that infographics.
Just to point out some HE being mentioned on that video.
Slots HE- 17%
Keno- 25%
Blackjack - 0.8%
Craps- 0.8%
Baccarat- 1.06%
I fully agree on this line stated by a former dealer.
"I chose to leave because gaming exploits the negative characteristics of a human nature to extract as much money from each customer as fast and as frequently as possible."
This wont really be applicable on physical casinos but also on online casinos as well yet behavior can be seen either both sides.

There is a range for some of these though. I think slots are around 2-17 percent house edge. Blackjack is highly dependent on the player theemself, so that ranges from .2 - 2 percent. Others im not very sure of.
Do note that a large number of online casinos will actually use investors' bankroll in order to accept larger bets, this allows them to grow without their own money. They are obviously paying out profits to these people, but it's something to take note of as well.

Aside from the content of the video (which is pretty interesting), I really can't stand this narrator's voice.
That said, more people should really be aware of how casinos trick you into spending more money.
The part where they explained how casinos are using near-misses on slot machines to make you think you're winning is pretty dirty actually.
It's weird that there aren't any laws preventing that, since it's basically a form of psychological manipulation designed to make you addicted.

i'm a very regular player "poker" not to much gambling and its very true, very much is psychological, to have the best feeling ever inside, even when you lose and to be down money, they try to keep you inside to lose more.... inside a casino you never have a feeling of time or whatever, like when you go inside @clear day, you will never know if its dark outside or raining or whatever inside its always sunny and fun.... also not the exit and table settings very accurate
in belgium when i played cash game in the casino of NAMUR, the poker tables closed always @ 3 in the night, while the roulette and other gamble games stayed open till 4.30 or something, offcourse all the dumb poker players lose some there
etc
very good video
So it is understandable if casinos are promoting the gambling addiction rather than address them, right?
Do they really care if you lost your lifetime savings? Nope. It is your problem not theirs.
So if you want a decent life without big debt incurred by your gambling activities, better moderate this habit.

I agree with the video to an extent. The big players which includes the casino owners feed on psychology of betters. Also for every match it bet placed, a commission is charged on it irrespective of the outcome.

Yeah, I watched this video before. I think that it is mainly focused on the specifics of land-based casinos, though. Online experience is different. Nobody can offer you free alcohol or walk around in a mini-skirt. I think that online casinos profit from house edge and human behaviour. Even when we have 50/50 chances of winning, I think we lose a lot more often, because of not being able to stop on time. You win, but you keep going instead of backing out, which eventually makes you lose everything. The feeling that it cannot go like that forever and luck will meet you out there at some point is making us lose more and more until we are broke. I do hope, though, that it's true that actually no more than 10% of gamblers are addicts. I don't know how much it's relevant to the online gambling scenarios but definitely worth checking it out.

This is an interesting video, and you did a good job on pointing out those house edges. I just want to add the HE on the Roulette table, which was also mentioned in the video (so maybe you can add that to your post by editing):
Roulette HE - 5.26%
In the same part of the video, just a bit later, they say an important thing which, from my experience, some gamblers can't grasp.
Quote
If you take that aforementioned percentage, it means that for every $1 Million bet the casino will take about $50,000.
The casinos don't want you to lose all your money to them. Actually they don't care whether you are losing or winning, because in any case they will get their house edge and will be in profit. What they really want is that you wagered as much money as possible, and everything, the design of the games, the free drinks, the hot girls around etc. is serving that purpose. In a lucky based game a drunk person can win just as likely as a sober one can, so they don't give you those drinks to make you lose, but rather to make you stay there longer.

nice notes there from the video mate.
I think it only shows that the more emotional you become, the more you are really prone to losing because the system is already designed to win due to the house edge advantage.
But we are just human beings and that is the sad truth that addicted to gambling is getting through as of this very moment.
In my point of view casino's would definitely do that, It will make a way in diverting your focus just to the game itself, it diverts some things to let you know that you are truly welcome inside the casino, It will surely motivate you to play even more, I really think this is some strategies that casino would surely do to really keep you on your feet and just staying and betting, Well if this is the case you still do have a free will to really get out from it or just stay and continue to waste money it is really up to you if you would do it or not.
It is for us to understand that if winning from gambling is so easy then how will casinos owner get so much money that they can distributive to others. If they do not make money how will they run their business, give free beverages , such great atmosphere with good architecture etc. They will make money from us only and through some tricks.

Not gambling seems to be the obvious choice here but there comes a time when you are going to have no option but to go to the casino and hope that your luck shines for just a single moment for you to win.But alas Luck is unpredictable like the ocean.

That's true! It harms if it becomes a habit but does no harm if we do it occasionally. We should all be taking gambling as the way of entertainment just like the way we spend on travelling. You get a budget and time, go to gamble or to adventure sports, once your budget is done, you come back. Problem starts once you try to overdo it and greed takes over your decision making power.
Till the time we gamble for entertainment, it is good. We also need to understand that gambling is a business and it runs on profit. So if we are looking at gambling as a method of making money, we are doing it wrong at the first place. Then we start blame gambling for our own losses.

Obviously casinos want money but you can also profit from them investing or through referrals. Both are great options to get a good amount of money, referrals specially, it's a fairly simple way of getting passive income, as I was saying in another post, I got like 20-30 EOS total with EOSPlay thanks to refs and I'm sure you can earn more
Investments in crypto casinos are usually pretty profitable, as long as you're not excessively using leverage and you're investing reasonable amounts of money that you can afford to lose, but I've never had much luck with referrals as I haven't ever found a good place to advertise my referral links. I know some people do make decent amounts of money from refs, but I've always been good with investments, especially with newer casinos. There are even threads around here detailing how some people have made money from investing in casinos and the weekly/monthly performance of their investments.

Well, all casino's are in in for the money, that's just a fact.
That doesn't mean that there aren't somewhat ethical casino's around.
Take Crypto-Games for example, since we both have it in our signatures
That's a partially crowdfunded casino and I do not think they have any of those shady tactics to get players hooked, apart from it just being gambling of course.
Lets see:
I'm sure that there are more reasons, but just wanted to show that it can be done differently.

Lets see:
- Way lower house edge than those shown in the video
- I don't think they've programmed near misses into their games
- They will shut down your account and ban your IP address when you ask for it (in case of addiction)
- No addiction inducing bonuses with rollover requirements
I'm sure that there are more reasons, but just wanted to show that it can be done differently.
The video itself is very informative with its infographics shows, and now I had subscribed to a new YouTube channel.
What I learned in the video is that the casino itself is really taking advantage of us and what the programmers of slot machines did, making small often wins that make you feel the same way as winning. It's so simple but so smart at the same time. They know how to take advantage of people who really want to gamble. Making you want to stay and just play all day. That's what all the freebies are for, and I have suspected that and this video somehow confirms it.
I think we just need to control and not play in the long run. Or not gamble at all. Lol
Not gambling seems to be the obvious choice here but there comes a time when you are going to have no option but to go to the casino and hope that your luck shines for just a single moment for you to win.But alas Luck is unpredictable like the ocean.

Just stumbled upon this video while surfing youtube out of boredom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXlLsg9t5jU&t=338s This really hits the spot and shows what really runs the gambling industry. No, it's not money addiction or the hobby to get rich. It's much more than that. It's very much psychological!
I don't know how much it's relevant to the online gambling scenarios but definitely worth checking it out.

yeah of course , in general these techniques make the gamblers kinda stay more and if the gamblers stayed more that means they will most likely wager more which leads to more profit ( in theory )
but we can't just say they make money due to that cause the main reason they make money is because of HE , but these techniques mixed with HE means the site will have more and more profits

This is truly real about video,free or paid drinks still intoxicating and distracting while playing.Women also divert attention such as blinding the players' decisions so that they become greedy,different from online casinos which we really have to fear yeah,even though they get full trust but still fear when choosing in the wrong place.
If it is not really an "addiction" how do you really explain online gambling addiction where you gamble on your house.
Yes free drinks and women around and no clocks and really weird exit route and all of that is really keeping you in there to gamble as much as possible but in reality when you are gambling from your house you are having trouble leaving as well.
I know someone who goes to cyprus once a year and she goes there with a set amount of money to gamble, after all she goes there to spend money and have fun and she uses that money whilst getting free drinks and free food and so forth and really have the time of her life and in the end never spent more than what she arranged while going there.
However, we have all known people who have lost all their money at once at online gambling and while you are gambling on a casino you have to get up get dressed go there and spend money and if you lose all your money with you than even if you withdraw money from somewhere than you need to get up and do all of that again. Whereas playing online you can sit on your underwear and gamble millions of dollars easily with a click.

This reminds me of the way strip clubs operate. You might think that getting a lap dance is the most expensive thing and that clubs mainly make money from that and the tips, but no. People are focused on how much a dance costs more than on the price of the drinks and drinks are what makes it profitable for the club. They're at least 3 times more expensive than in a pub. Gamblers focus on the game they come to play, like roulette, but while they walk around they casually spend a while at a slot machine, order a few drinks, and don't even remember doing it because they came for roulette and that's all they think about all evening.

It's highly relevant since some tricks could be applied to online casinos such as :
1. Live online dealer (using video streaming)
2. Lots of free things such as deposit bonus, gambling coupon & faucet
3. Using psychology design to make their website theme, such as using soft color
Also, online casino can be accessed anywhere with internet connection which tempt gambler easier while gamblers still need drive to physical casino.
Thanks for the share up and i can say this is more psychological which i do really agree on what are the facts being pointed out on that infographics.
Just to point out some HE being mentioned on that video.
Slots HE- 17%
Keno- 25%
Blackjack - 0.8%
Craps- 0.8%
Baccarat- 1.06%
I fully agree on this line stated by a former dealer.
"I chose to leave because gaming exploits the negative characteristics of a human nature to extract as much money from each customer as fast and as frequently as possible."
This wont really be applicable on physical casinos but also on online casinos as well yet behavior can be seen either both sides.

Well The casino is a business establishment so what do you expect, A business needs to profit so they will sure do something to make a profit and even ending up a psychological technique to simply lure customers in playing in the casino, They will simply put what most people would like if not alcohol there will be beautiful women wandering around the casino and gamblers will accommodate them to impress them that they will make a win, But that's not the case because the house always wins and has a big edge in profiting than you, they will tend to exploit the weakness in the human brain to keep on playing, Well this video is very informative and can really help certain people who want to try to play on the casino.
