Gambling requires luck but it also requires skill if A level takes an hour with a 95% failure rate i think that a lot of users won't bother trying a couple of times after a failure. But if a game takes 30 seconds they're going to probably keep trying again until they're successful it's impossible to be attractive without skills.

That's why gambling sites offer different games, so their players could use any game they want depending on their taste and time. Roulette and Dice is the most fastest game you could play if you want a fast phase game, while poker if you want to burn your braincells in able to outsmart other players to win the game.

But there are risks of course in both, fast phase game in my opinion are more addicting and there is a high chance of losing too much (depends on how much you bet per round) while skill based game takes more time but worth the money because you're doing your best to win.

if the game wasn't interesting by itself, people would play only if they were winning money all the time, but, well, there are no such games in this Universe.

You are right as there are cases that people gamble on a game where they don't really like but since luck hit them, they will continue to play on it as it's profitable to them. They will only stop here until several losing attempts.

Like in my case, I don't like to bet on online cockfighting, trending gambling here in our region, but since luck is hitting me and able to get a good profit already, I still continue to gamble there up to date. I'm affiliated with a premium group there so we have a tip on who will win.

Cockfighting isn't purely luck-based game. If you are winning constantly in it, that means you know something(and you said it yourself - you are getting tips on who will win), and it's not just luck that hits you.

Normally I would say "Keep it up!, but, to be honest, I don't like the situation you are currently in. They surely made you hooked, but be cautious: those guys don't give away money for nothing.

The promotions can be the other way to hook people to come to that site because people will see that the site offers something that the other site does not do. They will try to get the promo by following the terms and conditions and if the offers are very interesting, more people will try to get it. When they already get the promo, they will feel if the site can make them comfortable to make them go back for the other days. Even if hook or comfort is different, they are still back to that site because they can enjoy their time playing the games.

It is true that the more attractive the promotion provided by the gambling site, then it will attract many people to try to play on the gambling site.
But to make people keep coming back to play at the gambling site after the promotion ends, the gambling site must provide comfort for people who
play there. Among other things, by providing a large selection of gambling games, easy process of withdrawing funds, low transaction fees and also
an attractive website display. All of the things I have mentioned are general things that can make people comfortable and will come back again to
play at the gambling site, even without them knowing they will promote the gambling site to other people. Because if people have been
made comfortable, it is very effective to hook people on the gambling site.

I am sure the gambling site is always trying to provide many things to make their members satisfied and comfortable with their services. That is why the gambling site tries to promote and give offers to their members by sending their emails about the event they want to start. It could attract the gamblers back to that gambling site and see what promotions can make their interest. The feeling of comfort from the members will make the gambling site work hard to give the best to them. Once their members can hook to their site, it could be the way for them to get the other members because they can suggest to their friends to try on that gambling site.

For well-known gambling sites it will always be like that, providing information and promotions and offers sent via email to members so they don't miss the latest news or promotions that are laughed at by the gambling site.
and the most important thing is the comfort and feeling of being close to the gambling site team so that we can communicate well and always answer what we ask well and clearly so that we can also promote to friends that the gambling site is very good and comfortable to use.

All of that thing is right. Yes, the well-known gambling sites know how they should treat their members and make them satisfied. That step has been duplicated to the other new gambling site that needs more members to their site and benefits from that. All of the gambling sites have raised their work seriously and give better services just to attract more gamblers to come to their site, which means more profit that the gambling site will get from the members.

If I were to choose a video game I enjoyed playing, I would choose to play video games that allows me to compete my gaming skills against other players on the game server as it would be more challenging to play against another human player rather than a bot in a video game.

For casino games, the house edge of the game is an important aspect for me as I will stand a higher chance to win some money from the casino if the house edge of the game is lower. And I think if a casino were to design a game to attract new players to play it, the game rule should be easy to understand and players should not face any difficulties to learn and play the game within a short period of time.

Personal choice or preference because not all would really be that mindful whether they do against on a player or against with a bot or house itself, as long you do able to enjoy on what you are currently
playing then that what matter most.

What does it take for a game to hook people? This is a matter of personal choice because there are things which might interest you but a big turn off to other people and there might be some things that
doesnt interest you much but totally opposite into others.

Game can be defined in many types or forms.

So to attract people is basically about promotions and other bonuses and not about feelings, because the feeling will arise to continue playing when you are comfortable. So, even if there are no promotions and bonuses made in the game, they will continue to play in the game. It's different if there is a bonus offer in an existing game, at least with a bonus offer they will play the game even though they basically don't like the game. Alluring and feeling or comfort have differences and they are not the same.

The promotions can be the other way to hook people to come to that site because people will see that the site offers something that the other site does not do. They will try to get the promo by following the terms and conditions and if the offers are very interesting, more people will try to get it.

Added factor to attract possible long term clients, promotions really bring gamblers attentions and
if the site maintain great relationship then they have a good business to run with those people.

It is an unstoppable feeling of testing the game and trying luck every time a gambler feels good with the game that he started to bet on. We've got that feeling whenever we're already hooked to the game and it's hard to stop when you're enjoying and at the same time you see yourself winning those bets and the game itself. There's a feeling of self-satisfaction as you gamble and play and you'll never know when to stop even if you're starting to feel that there's something wrong. This is the true meaning of being hooked to a game.

Yes, I agree about self-satisfaction that will come to us when we feel we enjoy playing the game. The casino knows how to hook us better by serving so many gambling games that can make us stay for a long time and spend the money. We will not realize that even we will not think about stopping for a while and break after playing for some time. The feeling can become bigger if we are winning those bets much time. If that happens for some time, that can be the time to get addicted to the game.

So to attract people is basically about promotions and other bonuses and not about feelings, because the feeling will arise to continue playing when you are comfortable.

I think the one that can really hook a player is if that particular game is exciting and the chances to win is not solely because of luck since there are games that requires knowledge and strategy just like poker and sports bet. Well this depends on every gamblers preference but certainly a game that can give us satisfaction when we gamble is what we're looking for.

Besides sports bet and poker, I guess many other gambling games hook a player to come back playing on those games. Even if that gambling games need the luck to win, they still return just to test their luck and see how good the result is to this day. I am sure we all have those experiences, especially when we can get satisfied playing the games.

A hook requires an emotional response, hopefully enjoyment of the game and also risk reward which is a core emotion for human beings going many thousands of years. Removing gambling will never rid humans of that need to take risks, compete and enjoy rewards and its all natural imo. Hooked can mean good or bad gameplay though in terms of gambling I'm pretty sure you want to remain in control to achieve best results money wise.

It is true that a hook requires an emotional response and taking into account that people can get very emotional when they earn and lose money then it is easy to see that every single gambling game has the chance to hook up a player, which game people tend to prefer will depend on their personality, personally I prefer games in which I have to think so games in which I have to play against other players like poker or sport bets are the games that I prefer.

What control you do mean? When it comes to odds or winning chance then there might be some difference since HE is almost the same so this simply implies that everything is just the same.

It is just different on total environment or how its been set-up but games offered is just the same or overall concept.

Hooking up people? For physical then those perks would really be in mind and on online then vip and other bonuses as well.

The atmosphere of a physical casino contributes to the fact that a person has a good mood and a kind of euphoria, which means a passion for risk/additional spending. These are old and well-known marketing moves, and no matter how confident a person is that he can resist them, on average, many people succumb to such influence.

Correct, it is easy to think that we can resist the influence that casinos are exerting, especially the physical ones as they have complete control of the environment, however this is really difficult to do, this is why you can see that some people that have no problems with their gambling can lose everything of value they have with them at the moment and be completely confused about how this came to happen as they simply lost control of their betting patterns and lost all the capital they brought with them.

Yes. Sometimes it doesn't even matter how shitty the game will be.
If you like it, you just go for it and play it.
Horse racing for example as many gamblers are also into it. But for me, I don't even understand what the hell is happening there. I know it's a simple race but there are different kinds of bets like pairing who will be first and second or the last and second to the last. Still, I can't understand how they are analyzing it.

You gotta love it, I think that's one good reason to be hooked on a game.
