Title: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time)
Post by: Fivestar4everMVP on November 24, 2023, 04:02:28 PM
 Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

Literally waste of time and money yet I'm still playing this shitty games for a chance to win big multiplier. The optimism on winning huge multiplier is they selling point of this game that's why many players keep playing this despite a terrible result in general.

I can count using my finger my huge win on this game while I lose a lot on this game so in general this game is disaster for me just like you. I still preferred blackjack and sports bet compared to slot games if we are talking about the main game to play. I remember spending 4hrs of auto spin on slot game and end up in more than 50% loss to my bankroll plus migraine due to the animation.  :D

When one of the online casinos awarded free spins for some activity, I also received, I think about 10 spins or something like that. Of course, it’s not that I didn’t win anything, but there weren’t even any coincidences. I tried it purely out of curiosity without any hope of winning and it was initially clear that this was a marketing trick to attract new gamblers. Unfortunately, this trick didn't work for me. :)

In general, my experience of playing slots was also unsuccessful. I gradually squandered the entire modest deposit that I had, step by step, and lost. Therefore, I consider this a waste of time and money. And if I hit the jackpot (which is almost impossible), would I have the opposite opinion?

When there is a wager requirement or any other type of withdrawal condition, be aware that things typically don't work out properly. These casinos are very aware of what they are doing, so they won't just hand out 77 free spins to any new player that signs up, because there's a good chance that many of them will come out on top and take home a few bucks from the bonus spins. The free spin is more of a marketing ploy to advertise their services and entice people to join and register with the casino and use the services of the casino.

I always prefer to bet on sports games that I know a little bit about rather than playing slot games since I have lost money on them a few times and I just don't feel like it's my kind of game.

Free spins or bonuses should be the waste of time, not slot. As slot games still provide huge profits. But, you may not have won because the free spins are given to players to help market the casino. They expect you to wager on your deposit after losing the $55, as the house also want profits. They need your funds to maintain their website and settle marketing bill and other bills. You'd see that while they care to provide relaxation for players, the casino indirectly take money from players. To run the business, that's where the losses go. Hence, if the house edge isn't well calculated the casino will run out of business. I've read different threads about the irrelevance of bonuses and free spins. It's never worth the time spent, most people lose out with no profit. The initial limit before withdrawal, illustrates the aim of the free spin. To attract players, then encourage them to wager money. Logically, it's impossible to win up to the amount required to withdraw, using 77 free spins. It's just a marketing strategy and many players will fall for it.

I am literally laughing here 😂😂
What other way to effectively burn money if not to turn on the auto spin on a slot game? And to have it run like that for four hours  :o? Damn bud, you must be a m'f*king millionaire 😁.

In the times I've played slot games, I have never used the auto spin function because it has never ended in joy for all the gamblers I've seen use it live. Though I've actually read a couple of times about some really few people who won a live changing amount of money by setting  their slot game play to auto spin, but I honestly have never come across any gambler with such testimony in real live.

I’m always investing on my bankroll when playing this shitty *slut because you will never know when luck will hit you hard. But I’m always making sure that the money I’m using doesn’t have any other purpose than to be doom on gambling. This way I can sleep well despite a heavy loss.  :D

In reality, Enjoyment on the slot action is what we are really paying here. The only problem is when greed kicks in that makes us focus on getting higher multiplier instead of enjoying the wild ride. That’s what slot addict keep saying which I really don’t appreciate until now.

I understand how frustrated you feel, at first I often lost when playing slots but after I didn't really chase the wins then my luck slowly appeared, I know not everyone will have the same way of thinking as me when it comes to slots but believe me  If you use slot gambling as a test of luck and also a medium for entertainment then you won't experience too many painful losses, just be patient, maybe tomorrow you will be able to recover your losses.

Actually it isnt really about having wasting money since its not your money at all since it was given as a bonus. The thing you do only spend is only is time.
So that you do expect is that they do really only asking out some easy way on cashing out? Of course they would be setting wagering condition on which you could really be
able to needed up to be reached out before you could cash out. They cant really just put up it up so easy because thats a huge expense for them for players or to those testers
would really be able to cash out.

Dont get frustrated because you have did your best on trying to cash out. There's no way that we could easily hit up those threshold
not unless we are really that very lucky. So its better not to expect or anticipate much.

Well... "Are you not entertained?"
If not, then this game isn't for you... For me, it's a good time-wasting game. Sure it can be expensive sometimes, but it depends on your minimum bet. I remember depositing around ~$15 and playing for hours with $0.015/spin. Any seasoned slots veteran knows it's a waste of time and money, but it's fun!

It is true that the fact is like that.
Slot gambling can indeed easily attract people who play it for a long time, and can also make someone lose track of time when gambling. I myself experienced it, I played gambling in the middle of the night with the aim of getting rid of boredom but because the spin was good, it made me even more interested in continuing to play it, unconsciously I had spent a lot of time gambling until the morning, and it was very beyond reason, I did not think that slot gambling would take a long time.
Maybe other people also feel the same way, with hours of time when playing slots, because maybe every good spin makes the money available not decrease but instead increase and the pull and encouragement that is felt to continue gambling without thinking about time.

I rarely if ever win on slot machines.  Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever won any sort of significant winnings when playing slots.  I guess I also normally don't play a ton, as when I'm at casinos I like to play games that are more skill based. 

For a lot of people slots aren't a waste of time.  Some people find their simplicity fun.

After some time, I also felt the same with slots and moved on to sports betting. Now, I only play them in the form of bonuses since casinos sometimes hand them out as one of the alternative prizes or rewards through their promotions.

I always skip those bonuses with wagering requirements because I need a lot of luck to clear the requirements. I remember taking a no-deposit bonus once and only made it halfway through the wagering requirement before my luck ran out.

The adrenaline rush is the reward I get from crash and slot games, more from crash games cause they are more exciting.

I never stake high to enable me get as much goes as possible and I do not put the pressure of expectations on, making me play at a more relaxed pace, like playing a video game.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
If you have not had luck with it, then quit playing. Games should be fun or profitable.

I have once in my life actually managed to withdraw something like 70 bucks i won just by getting free spins by joining. Requirements to gamble weren't too bad, but i can't even remember what casino it was. Later after that i took some free bonus offers and realized how rare those opportunities are. Either requirements are beyond ridiculous or i am just not winning anything.

But in slots overall i have been dangerously lucky. I recently stopped winning and decided i needed to take a break. And what i mean by dangerously lucky is that when you are winning a lot, you get hooked. And start to believe it's more common or easy to win. This make you put more and more money in until reality hits, and it often hits when it's too late and i wanted to gamble more to get ath again. Or even back to the starting point. I have learned the hard way that gambling more to win back your money isn't a good attitude, so i am just taking a break from slots. I will eventually play them again, but now i've changed to sports betting.

You got your greed going big, mate. You should be able to stop after getting that $55 because not many can get that amount of money, and you are one of the lucky ones. And with a wagering requirement of $582, that seems like a lot, but if you give up, that's good for you because at least you don't have to lose any more dollars.

I also rarely get luck from slot games. That's why I always limit my slot play. Usually, I buy a Bonus with a minimum bet or spin the spin XX times. But that also can't bring me luck because I know that slot games depend on our luck.

You're expecting slot winnings from free spins by finishing wagered $750? That's pretty tough mate, I know for sure with free spins to finish will be able to find it but of course it will be difficult and you become frustrated.

Don't be too hopeful even though it's luck for me it's hard to finish unless you add more capital but in reality it won't dare because you know you will lose all the money.
I also very rarely play in slots with big wins maybe it's not time to get lucky. LOL But I know this is only limited to entertainment and always finish losing it with small money. :D

Btw, I checked Betfury not only gives spins from BTCGOSU partnership but new users can get 100 spins without depositing.

Not worth my time, energy or money. That's why I don't play slots. It's the most effective way to loss all your money. 77 free spins and you still loss all? I think, even if you had 1000 free spins you won't be able to fill up your minimum withdrawal amount. Try to approach a different games, where your winning chances can  be higher than slots. :)

Slot games are very tricky and there's no system or strategy as with pretty much any game of chance.
Being patient or betting persistently is only going to make you lose slower and with a more steady pace actually.

Often times the aim of playing slots is to get a high multiplier, but the chances to get such multiplier are so slim that it doesn't matter what the statistics say about RTP or volatility.
As with any game, you should just play slots with amounts you can afford to lose and for the thrill of it, nothing more.
Also, a big mistake people make with slots is to actually go after big wins others make. We have to keep in mind that these wins are often made with money given from the casino's marketing team and it's not unlikely that the seed given to these public players like streamers isn't entirely random too. So all in all, slots might seem appealing, but those actually after good chances to win would be better off with games like crash, dice or even robot blackjack. When looking to win, actually go after the lower house edge other than a game's looks. ;)

I never experienced winning that much in slots and other pure luck based games. You'd sometimes win but loss is bigger in the long run. There are people who still enjoys playing such gambling game category and I don't invalidate them since we have our own preferences. If they do loge playing it then that's fine. But personally, I am not into it. I prefer sportsbetting more but I did experienced playing slots and other gambling games before. Going back, are slot games a waste of time? To some it is but to others it is not. Let us allow people to enjoy things on their own 'coz we have our own money and we have the rights to use it to something we prefer for ourselves.m whether it is slots or sportsbetting.

I did get that GOSU77 free spins but i do really just end up on on getting $10. They did really have that 40-50x wagering requirement i guess
which it is really just that too far off but its not something that im expecting considering those free spins arent really that something big but well its better to have that
way since its just free. You cant really be able to get that free spins on day by day on which be grateful at least that they are giving those free spins.
I did play on Sweet bonanza but just as expected, its not my lucky day. I do really suck at slots.  :P

Well, we have different opinions about the game especially when we're happy and winning and also, when we're disappointed and losing.

It's fun, not a waste of time and resources when we're winning. But when we're losing then we have the same opinion that it's not really fun and just a waste of time and money.

I guess it all lies down to the results that we're having pertaining in playing the slots or any games that we like at first and then loses our interest when something good isn't coming.

You are sure going to lose if you continue using auto spin in your bets,  because this will only bring your bankroll liquidity closer than ever,  and the fastest means to burn out all the money in your balance,  in like the manual spinning which gives you the chances to at least have a reflection on your previous spin and decide whether to take a break or continue.

But in auto spin mode,  you are only kick out of the slot machine when you balance level reaches the zero zone and you have no more funds to continue spinning.

I think you really do make sense, and I agree with you though. But again, understand that, in as much as I don't usually win constantly on sports betting, I really will never say or have this same opinion for sports betting, and it's not because I win it constantly, like I said before, but rather, it's because in sports betting, the game gives a gambler this feeling that he or she, and his or her knowledge in sports are in control of his or her winning or loses, so here, we don't really blame anyone if we lose, but rather blame ourselves for not being able to correctly guess the outcome of the game.

But in slot, the feeling is different, due to a constant loses and very few winnings, some time, I do feel that slot games are not fair on gamblers, even when casinos advertise this games to be completely and probably fair.

That's part of the marketing that they're telling that it's fair and will even say that you can verify your games if they've got seeds of it for proof. But most of these luck based games including the slots are totally programmed to make the house wins.

And the thing is, even if we all knew that they're programmed like that. We are still curious to gamble and play on it and keep going until it's no longer fun and yeah, that's because we're losing on it.

Unlike the games like sports betting, poker and other the same games that requires you to analyze. The feeling of playing them is truly different even if you go on a losing streak.

This is a pure luck based game and a machine generated result which the system favors the house so technically, winning here is like hitting the jackpot that can only happen once in a while. This kind of betting machine can’t guarantee any profit and yes this could be a waste of time of money but still many finds this game interesting and more fun to gamble with. If you can see, most of the gambler in casinos are playing slot machines maybe because its easy to play and easy to understand.

I can understand your displeasure and why you were quick to jump into this conclusion that slot games are a waste of time and money, but you have to know that if everyone feels the same way towards it, it will not take time before it goes out of play, but it will not happen so because there are people who particularly have slots as their thing, and love it. To these people, they can never see it as a waste of time and money, but rather they see it as the only game that they can catch their fun on.

Opinions vary, and that is what makes this life beautiful.

Is this really about the slot games or what we ourselves know about gambling, if we are playing slot, then we should understand well the requirements for playing this game which is basically by luck, we cannot compare this kind of game to sport bets or any other forms of games we do play in gambling, if we say that slot game is all about waste of time and money, what about the fun we have in being entertained, does that not cover up for the value of money lost or time used in playing slot.

I do think bonus free spins aren't winning most of the time and they end up losing maybe like 75% out of it are just gonna lose, 77 free spins and you just manage to win a decent amount I think that's already written if it's just free. Well, it's difficult to win with luck based games so I doubt my luck in the first place as well. What's more frustrating is that the wager requirement and you're not a high roller you really will end up losing all the bankroll in the end.

This is another sign that casinos are also businesses and not a free money house and most of this promotions are to draw more attentions and customers to themselves that’s why most wagering requirements are very strict and end up draining money from players and I think at some point , most of these promotions only end up making players chase after losses and blowing their accounts and I think knowing when to stop when a game isn’t going in our favour especially in slot games is one major skill that will help to keep a player profitable in the industry.

Just bear with it  ;D, you are not the only one getting frustraed trying to meet the requirement of a free spin to withdraw,  I experienced it so many times that I come to a conclusion to ignore promos and bonuses due to wagering requirement.

Not that much lucky, but still experience a decent winning amount.  So my attitude towards gambling is neutral.  It can waste our time as much as it can give us huge wins.

Have you never been lucky with slot games?

Here's a question: How often do you play these games? If you've only played a few times, I don't think you should make such a statement. Also, during your attempts to complete the wagering requirements, what was the value of your bets per spin? This factor also matters.

Calling slots a complete waste of time just because you didn't win seems a bit contradictory, especially when you mentioned being happy. Isn't that reason enough not to label these games as a complete waste of time?

Some people enjoy playing slots, so I don't think they consider it a waste of time even if they lose most of the time. Anyway, we all have different views on how we perceive things.

Better luck next time!

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.
I do think bonus free spins aren't winning most of the time and they end up losing maybe like 75% out of it are just gonna lose, 77 free spins and you just manage to win a decent amount I think that's already written if it's just free. Well, it's difficult to win with luck based games so I doubt my luck in the first place as well. What's more frustrating is that the wager requirement and you're not a high roller you really will end up losing all the bankroll in the end.
The slots machines is like a bonus round for casinos as they make more money thru the small time gamblers and yes, winning here will always be based on your luck. This its not a total waste of time as it serve its purpose to entertain gamblers and winning to some is just s bonus for them. Many gambler are still prefer to gamble with slots, they see this as a more convenient way to gamble the same thing in the traditional casinos.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

First of all, thanks for providing information regarding the promotional code from BTCGOSU, I have claimed it and got around $ 10 at Sweet Bonanza ;D. Ok, back to the topic, IMO, you're not smart enough in determining your steps. Slots is a game that doesn't require any strategy, it's purely about luck. So, if your goal is to make a withdrawal from the bonus you got, why not stop playing on slots and use the bonus balance in their original games? Don't expect much from slots, I don't know how people here experience slots, but if it were me personally, I wouldn't be all in on slots.

Slots are unpredictable beasts.  :D  I have had some crazy times with those.  Luck comes and goes, I guess thats gambling.  This one night sticks out where I just kept feeding the slots and nothing was happening and  down a decent bit of money and getting frustrated, I decide just a few more pulls.  Well, would you believe it - jackpot! Biggest one I have seen.  For a minute I felt on top of the world.  Then after the excitement wore off I realized I probably used all my luck up in one moment.  Havent played slots much since.  Moral is, walk away when you are ahead.

Exactly. this is one way to spend our money very quickly. Whatever people say, they win a lot and get a lot of money from slot games and how they influence many other people to play slots, but the fact is that slots are actually gambling that will really cost us money. Never trust people who attract you to play slots and convince you that you can get a high Jackpot. absolutely not! it's just their game so you can get caught up in it. Even if they become successful because of slot games, it could be that they are part of the team or affiliates or others who can use cheats to win. Meanwhile, if we are not part of them, we will only be targets of defeat and continue to lose. and unfortunately, many people are trapped in slots still hoping for the jackpot.

The money-making machine for gambling service providers is slot gambling. Because when compared to other types of gambling, at least this type of slot gambling has contributed a large portion of the total income of gambling service providers. However, despite this, there are still many people who are not aware of this and they still continue to play slot gambling.

Yes... actually it's okay to play slot gambling, as long as the main reason we play is just for fun. Because considering that compared to other gambling, slot gambling is the most fun gambling. But it will be a different story if the main reason you play slot gambling is to pursue a profit, so what happens is that the longer you linger and continue to pursue profits in slot gambling, the greater the money you donate to the bookie.

But apart from all that, whether slot gambling or anything else, if the gambling is not done carefully  and not under good control, then whatever type of gambling you do, it will only result in significant losses.

Maybe you're just saying that because you're bored, and when you don't feel bored, you'll play again and maybe on another casino platform, right? There are as many gamblers as you say, to be honest.

Then it looks like you're chasing a wager amount as well. Why are you chasing to become a VIP member at the casino you're playing at, dude? But you know, even though it's not just slot games, playing gambling is really just a waste of time if it's just a hobby for us. Even with other types of gambling games, it's just a waste of time.

Slots have gained popularity not because they offer great odds of winning big, but because people enjoy playing them.  There's some thrill in taking a risk for a potentially huge jackpot, even if realistically the chances are very small and  yet folks play anyway for the fun of it and on the off-chance they actually score big.  The games are just convenient entertainment with a side of hope.  So while the likelihood of profits is low, the excitement and possibilities seem to be enough to keep people spinning away regardless.

The bonus give by the gambling site to bring the more gambler with the short period of time.But the gambling site also make some check like the wager limit to claim the win.You need to deposit some money to the gambling site to increase the wager in the period of few days.You made the better choice of end up by not deposit of the further money to complete the wager deposit of 582 dollars.If you win from the deposit in the slot game will be the bad moment of the gambling site.But if you lose the game by doing the random bet in the slot game,the experience gambler only win the money from the slot game.If you had loss the entire money after make the deposit to the gambling sites.So the gambler play the sports gambling compared to the slot game.

Any game you play but you cant enjoy the process and consider it as wasting of time, it proofs that it is not your game. Waste of time means that you force yourself to take the bonus while you dont have free time for it, because it should not be something waste of time if you play it on your 100% free time. Or maybe it is because you are hoping too much to earn something from the free spins but you failed to complete the wagering requirement, then you think that you have just wasted your time for nothing.

Money can be earned by playing slot games but it may not apply to fulfilling long terms. Like asking you to complete $750 by playing slots. Whenever you turn 0 to 16 dollars and 16 dollars to 55 dollars here it is understood that money can be earned by playing slot games. Every time you meet the $750 long condition here, once you lose, you're out of money. I participate in betting only on sports. I have never participated in slots, dice, games. Here I will not consider slot games as a waste of time I will consider getting 77 free spins through your referral as a waste of time. Because making money from referrals is a complete waste of time.

Well man, this year I was lucky with the slots, I had a few positive sessions and I also got free spins from a previous signing campaign that were quite profitable, yes, they had no wagering requirements and if they gave me $25 in free spins and I won $100 with them I was able to withdraw them instantly.

But in general you have to be very careful because the slots are quite addictive and you can make a lot of money with them. Besides, they are usually the most profitable game for casinos.

Not only that, I think most bonus rounds on all gambling sites are not very profitable, and wagering requirements to be able to make withdrawal are normal because these types of requirements are always there.
Several times I have stated that bonus rounds cannot provide profits and may only be entertaining because there are enough free spins for us to have fun without spending money on each spin.

However, you don't need to regret it or worry about the wagering requirements before you can withdraw the small amount of winnings because if you feel objectionable then there is no need to think about withdrawing it.
Forget about the win and go back to playing with the money you have to get what you want in gambling.
I know that problems like this sometimes make some people feel like they are at disadvantage because with just small win they want to take out with larger amount of requirements.

I personally don't really care about every bonus round on some of the sites I use, honestly expecting big things from bonuses and being able to enjoy the benefits easily is delusion.
I prefer to play with the money I deposit even though the result is not necessarily winning, but I can get more satisfaction from it.

You should change this to waste of time and money "for you"....

This game was invented to entertain people, and if, in general, it were a waste of money, it wouldn't exist. Your experience doesn't necessarily make this game a waste of time. Slots are a form of entertainment; you win if you're lucky, you lose if you're not. That's just the way you should think about it. Let's stop criticizing games that bring enjoyment to the majority of gamblers playing them.

I guess that's how slot games are, no rules whatsoever, you just need to put up the money and then roll the real. But remember that in slots there's what we call RTP or return to player, so in short it is luck based game and chances are very slim to win it.

Not unless, you are in the right place at the right time, to hit that bonus jackpot.

So I don't think it's a waste of money and time because everyone is addicted to it because they are looking at that spin that will chance their lives like winning a grand jackpot or higher and wins a lot of money.

Or you can claim them as blatantly scam because you will not win? But the thing is, some play slots to be entertained and have some fun, and it will give you that, specially hitting near miss or near win and you thought you need to continue and hit that jackpot.

Of course, everyone here is not pleased if the results are not going in your side. But I have played slots, enjoy them, and I have the biggest winning in my career playing 50 lions when I wagered max bet and win in the 6 digits numbers.

So I will say not completely waste of money and time, it's just the timing that you are going to play and just hope that you will be lucky.

The bonus is a pity if it is not used, wherever it comes from (program campaign), maybe if the bonus is forfeited, you will imagine and say "if only". :)

I just made an account of some web games, and seeing the features, the deposit offers are beyond my ability, I will think like you, there are some webs that I deposit by choosing missions that may be more activity, such as daily claims or crypto faucets on the slott games web. Your money may have been replaced from other games? :)

I'm not specific to only choose slots, looking for favorite games is certainly a lot, when talking about excessive time in the game I assume that focus will increase on ambition, more optimistic about yourself and enthusiasm to increase capital without thinking further, the essence of enjoying the game for me depends on the mood, if there is money maybe 10$ is no problem (no more than 2% in the wallet), I assume thats money for buying food to accompany the day off. :)

Literally waste of time and money yet I'm still playing this shitty games for a chance to win big multiplier. The optimism on winning huge multiplier is they selling point of this game that's why many players keep playing this despite a terrible result in general.

I can count using my finger my huge win on this game while I lose a lot on this game so in general this game is disaster for me just like you. I still preferred blackjack and sports bet compared to slot games if we are talking about the main game to play. I remember spending 4hrs of auto spin on slot game and end up in more than 50% loss to my bankroll plus migraine due to the animation.  :D
If there are people we should be using as examples of people with practical faith and optimism it should be gamblers ;D . How else do you describe people that are fervently losing their money in an activity but are still hopeful coming back the next day to boldly lose more believing a miracle can just somehow happen to them with a big win.

Some of us gamblers have gotten used to the losing streaks that we have purge our minds off from worry about the losses and just enjoy the game while we hope to win something life changing in amount as we continue to gamble. Slots games are the worse in this category, you can't be skilled at it, you just keep spinning relying on luck, unlike sport games where your skills can be useful in addition to how much lucky you could be.

i think if you just chase the jackpot from the start of this game and lose in the end it might be a waste of time and money because your expectations were too high from the start and you should win, but in the end you lose. but if you just play for fun, i don't think you would call it a waste of time and money because your expectations from the start weren't high and you were just playing for fun, so whether you win or lose doesn't matter at all.

Never got lucky either.
Slot games for me an expensive games that's why I stopped playing them. 2 days ago I deposited some money to play Plinko instead and I was shocked I made my capital to x10. Then, the happy part is the wagered amount that I got which is $1000 in total while I am just betting for cents. I got pretty lucky that x420 is not that hard to hit. But today, everything was taken away from me including the capital that I managed to grow.
Slot games or other games, there will come a time when the casino will take back everything from you. I was frustrated that it just took hours for them to take all the money that I gained in 2 days. That fast.
So, both are actually waste of time and money and I'd rather bet on sports because I am enjoying the game while my bet is on the line.

Just think of this as entertainment for you because when else can you use the free spins without having to sacrifice a lot of your finances and it does seems like a waste of time but you only use the money you get from your winnings and don't use your personal money but if you make a deposit To continue chasing victory, you will increasingly waste your time and money in uncertain amount.

Sorry that you are frustrated, I don't do free spins because it dosn't matter to me, but there is one thing I've noticed about slots, you need to risk very low amount of money since you will be rolling the slots base on rounds you have left, I prefer using less that $1 for each rounds, the lower the better, at first I used to lose a lot of money and it never bothered me, because it was what I can afford to lose but later I decided to use the lowest money possible.

Today I am a better slots gambler based on how I manage my bank roll and I think that's what everyone should be doing instead of trying to win some money, go the lowest risk as possible, my game changed after a while and I sometimes walk away with 50% gain on my initial, but I still lose some money, sports game is better for sure, but I just like slots and the amount I risk on the game is very affordable for me so I am good.

I plan to move into Dice game, if anyone have experience about dice game please quote my reply and drop some feedback, I plan to move away from Slots for a while and try something new, not because of making more money but to get experience on other games and see how things go, maybe I will find something new that I will like even more.

I think there is some sort of logic behind casino slot machines. Not all of them are considered to be big scams for taking people's money. Sometimes they do pay out, and sometimes there is a loss. I'm having a thought that they are programmed to give 70% back to the house and 30% to a few lucky winners. This is why slots are called gambling. The winning is not certain, but you bet to win by chance.

There is only one casino game that I feel the winning probability is equal to the losing chances, which is blackjack. If a skilled player or someone who understands the game very well, they could win more than they lose, thereby giving them some compounding winning interest at the end of the day.

However, slot machines are designed and programmed to make you addictive. Even when you keep losing you still wants to play because of how you interact with the machine, the whole flash light thing is very attractive.

Next time don't join a online casino because of free spins, it is clear that you join the casino because you want free money and always understand that anything free from one casinos are not really free, they are doing marketing so don't expect to win free money just like that.
 
I am wondering why you decide to play Slots because you sound like someone who don't normally play Slots, why this time? To enjoy the free 77 spins? I think this was why you decided to try Slots out and what you got wasn't what you are expecting, lesson of the day, there is no free money anywhere.

Leave Slots for those who enjoy it, you don't have to talk as if Slots is a very bad game, it depends on your expectations and likes, Slots is not for every gamblers, if sport is best for your need stay with sports, don't go around because you want to win money, only those who can't afford to lose money in gambling are looking for free things, maybe gambling isn't something you should be involved with right now.

If we are saying that slot is a waste of time and money then maybe gambling as well could be termed that same way in general, but this is a wrong approach because at first place we are not gambling because we wanted to make money, we are doing so to have a means of being entertained through our leisure time, slot should be played by those that understand it and have interest in playing it, we gamble by choice and not by force, so we can decide on which game to play bet on each time we are gambling.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
Sometimes I'm lucky but most of the time I'm not, maybe many will agree with your statement that this is a game that makes us waste a lot of money and time because winning is purely based on luck but it is the most played game and it's hard to ignore because when you get into it Your casino account will always be tempted to play it even though initially you only intended to play another game.
However, in your case, it is also due to the influence of the high wager requirement and I have never been able to exceed the wagering requirement by more than 10x, so when there is a promotion or giveaway that requires 20x or even more the wager requirement then don't expect much, use the opportunity just to have fun and You'll be happy, especially if you don't make a deposit, because if you don't get anything from the promotion, you won't lose anything except time, but at least you'll get the opportunity to channel your desire to gamble without having to spend money.

I literally don't have strong hold of confidence to gambling platform that tends to offer bonuses in the first place even especially where a gambler hasn't made a funding yet.
I believe they are all nightmares whereas it can not been in a good used to the gamblers hence it is to be a marketing strategy to the platform all to attract gamblers.

Slot games is strictly a bid of luck and not one of those being calculative games or considering that the experienced ones has tendencies to take advantageous winning position.
Slots and spinning games are one sided gambling that one must learn to walk away at when emotionally depressed or appreciated because there is absolutely no  unjust of continuities.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

I guess that's how slot games are, no rules whatsoever, you just need to put up the money and then roll the real. But remember that in slots there's what we call RTP or return to player, so in short it is luck based game and chances are very slim to win it.

Not unless, you are in the right place at the right time, to hit that bonus jackpot.

So I don't think it's a waste of money and time because everyone is addicted to it because they are looking at that spin that will chance their lives like winning a grand jackpot or higher and wins a lot of money.

But many people do not understand this game I mean they misinterpret gambling which is created only for entertainment, so many think gambling can make a lot of money easily. If they think that way then they tend to experience addiction that is crazy about gambling. They should understand the meaning of gambling which is only for entertainment and not used as the main income in life because it is a mistake.  Some people who gamble also believe in RTP, which they think they can win easy wins by monitoring the RTP of the game.
But in my opinion it is only an alibi from gambling companies whose purpose is to attract more attention from playerss even though the player was given a win, because they saw the RTP so they were still confident that the winnings would still be easy to get, even though in the end the winnings they got were used up again because they were withdrawn by the gambling company, because they were sure that the RTP looked still good so they could return to deposit their money to return to play It continues like this until they don't realize that they have lost a lot of money.
So in my opinion those who play without their own awareness are the ones who make them waste their time, not because of the gambling, so the blame is on them. Even if they are lucky, it doesn't take long to get a win or jackpot.

At first you said that you were happy when you were able to turn the $16 into $55, it means that you enjoy it no matter how long you play it.
Later you lost it all and feel that you are unlucky then you created this topic to say that it is wasting your time.
Based on these information, I can assume that you are enjoying your gambling activity when you are on winning moment only (it is normal though), and maybe you will not say that it is waste of time if you were lucky enough to complete the wagering requirement with decent amount left in your account (profit).
Or maybe you say that it is waste of time solely because of the wagering requirement to complete?
If it is the main reason, you can simply play with your own deposit without any worry about wagering requirement so you can withdraw anytime as you wish.

i think if you just chase the jackpot from the start of this game and lose in the end it might be a waste of time and money because your expectations were too high from the start and you should win, but in the end you lose. but if you just play for fun, i don't think you would call it a waste of time and money because your expectations from the start weren't high and you were just playing for fun, so whether you win or lose doesn't matter at all.
Chasing the jackpot from the start of the game certainly makes it difficult for every gambler because no one knows when they can get the big multiplier. They can experience loss, which can trigger their anger or annoyance, so they want to recover from their loss by continuing to gamble for several more rounds.

But it won't always give them big wins because slot games are luck-based and if we don't have luck, we won't be able to win some money instead, we will run out of money. People cannot control themselves when playing slots so they will not realize the impact because playing slots can really use up all their money without any remainder.

That's why if you want to play slots, determine how much money you want to use and how long you want to play slots. And if one of them has been achieved, immediately leave the slot game. Otherwise, you could lose control of yourself and end up losing all your money.

Yeah using our logic, slots is definitely waste of time and money, but it's a life changing when someone hit the jackpot.

For a safer game, they can bet in sports, as long as you bet are come from your analysis and you're not hoping to high e.g. chase @10.00+ odds, you're fine.

But surprisingly people are prefer to gamble in slots than sports (https://gamblingindustrynews.com/usa-gambling-statistics/), maybe they're a gambling addict since slots is a game where you can play for 24/7 unlike sports lol.

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.
Yikes, I hate gambling experiences like this that leaves terrible tastes in the gambler's mouth. Some casinos are really shady in their dealings and I wish there was a way they could be taught a lesson. If a wager requirement of about $750 is the criteria why call it a freaking free spin? It is just wrong.

Yes, in essence, playing slots that have been planned by the bookie's programmer for the defeat of all players, in my personal opinion, is just a waste of time. The reason is that the game can influence our mindset to try it and on the first or second try, usually the online machine must have planned to win that person. Many people in my country are trapped in games like this, the losses are quite big. They hope to play this hoping to get lucky every round. and in essence this machine beats them all.

It's not a must to go with slots game, even if someone around you win in Slots you don't have to do the same thing, find the game that works best for you, sport is easily calculating than slots, it's you against the house and that makes you weak in every way, with sport it's a bit different, you are going to rely on the team and you are betting on their performance, not the same as a game running online and straight from people that you want to win money from.

I have my times with slots and my experience is roughly the same with yours, I don't always win most of the time and it's expected anyway, have you watch streamers? That will make you want to love Slots even more because they will be live and they will be making money as if it's that easy.

Do not trust the games that casino streamers are showing you on their live videos, your result will never be the same as their, so don't risk too much money on slots like they do, use only what you are ready to lose, at the end of everything gambling companies are the true winners of gambling, whenever you manage to win always consider taking your profits out, show no mercy.

Most of the gambler knew the essence of gambling but failed to accept it when they lose the money because they play to have profit in mind so all the entertainment that they get is already useless if the money which is the most precious to them is already lose.

Not all gamblers can easily let go money no matter how small it is especially if they already experience the opportunity to win more using it.

Slot games can win millions of dollars from small bets which are not available from other games. But on the other hand slot games are very risky. You can't win as easily with slots as you can with all other games. Due to this, gamblers are very addicted to slot games. Most of the time here is lost because it is said to waste both money and time. But those who are addicted to slot games don't want to accept it.  They think they will win something big very soon

It is very difficult to get a win in slots, sometimes the free spins that we get in slots cannot give us a win from that spin and to be able to get free spins is very difficult for us to get even though we have used a lot of capital to play slots, for some people I think those who enjoy their slot games still expect to win from the games they play and it is also very unlikely that they are just looking for fun in the game, of course they hope for jackpot wins from the slots they play.

Some time ago I also tried to play a slot game but I confess it was a disaster, at first I managed to win 3x of my deposit, but then the problem started, I started to have consecutive losses and even though I was hoping to hit something, nothing stopped. with my defeats, the most regrettable and irritating thing about slot games is that they don't depend on us to win or lose, and everything is random, there is no strategy that can be applied to change the result that the person is having at that moment, The longer a person keeps playing, the more likely they are to lose a lot.

That day when I was playing slots I was wondering what was the purpose of playing these games? because I didn't see any strategy that could be thought of for people to have good results, I also didn't see any good emotion in constantly losing, so I got it into my head that I would no longer play any game of chance that depends on luck, I prefer to just stay in sports betting, because in sports betting the outcome of the bet depends on me, if I'm skilled then I'll come out with a profit, if I'm not skilled then I'll come out with a loss.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

That was a good move, good job. You didn't chase your loser anymore. If I go by your story it's very impossible to win $750 before you withdraw it, it's like a trap you have to deposit until you reach $750 lol. We're the same, I'm not lucky with these games either, especially with free games and before you can withdraw your winnings, you have to win $750.

He was offered a free fun, but players refuse to acknowledge or enjoy the fun. Because their aim is to make money. It's impossible to earn money using 70 free spins to hit the required amount for withdrawal. In such situations, Op is meant to be happy he played using free spin. The money is secondary, funny the $55 wasn't withdraw-able. The fun been has missed, or the losses made it incomplete.

Slot games are fun, and can be used to generate more profits in gambling. Only players who don't study the strategies required in slot game would think it's not worth. Definitely, the jackpot comes ones in a while, but requires consistency. Some slots can give two jackpots in roll subsequently in a while. I noticed gamblers prefer games like poker or sports games, that can be under their control or analysis.

Actually there are free spins on which you wont really be needing to make deposit before you could really be able to make withdrawal on which it would really be just that
you would really be needing to wager 50x then you can still be able to withdraw but in most cases where bonuses does really require to have that deposit.
Its true  that only a few or someone cant really be able to control themselves after playing with these free spins. If you arent that careful or having that kind of control

Sadly sometimes people forget that is all what matters in this kind of games and gambling games: luck.
Since most of people will end up losing money to slots, it is quite easy to blame the casino of our bad luck and the money lost. Though, those lucky ones who manages to pull off some big wins by spinning slots won't agree it was a loss of time to them.  :P

It is a matter of perspective and whether the person is looking to get fun or trying to beat the system and get some guaranteed profit out spinning slots.
If OP was a gambler with a fixed amount to wager and did not care about the money he put at stake, then perhaps he may not have opened this thread.

Let us accept the fact that before you even complete the wagering requirement, your bankroll has long been gone.
If you are not too careful, you can bust your bankroll even at 5x or 10x wagering requirement. What more with 20x or 50x?
And to think that we are talking about slots game here, a luck-based game. So the survival of your bankroll is quite low if you continuously play on this game.
Also, most casinos would require a deposit before you can withdraw your winnings from their free spins. Just check their terms before you deposit.

Well I have been in luck several times and even won near max win prizes and I don't play though with that idea of wagering as much as possible,I only play to have fun and if the wager is in big amounts it is good as I will get a good weekly and monthly by doing so.Most of the time though they are a waste of time as for waste of money I would not call them that as long as you play with just 20-30 dollars as if you play with minimum bet usually they keep you playing long enough,if you change your currency to play with some other that is like 1 dollar for 15.500 IDR you can play for far more long than normally so I would not call this a waste of money unless you are crazy and play with bigger bets.

Same with me, I don't know why when I play a game like this, I never get the lucky to withdraw the profit, I am always lost and spend all the money. But, when playing sports bets, or any kind of game table, I always win and sometimes give me back my capital where lost on the slot. Sometimes I am curious to play it again, and again. But the more curious I became to play, the more losing I got in the slot. It seems I have become addicted to losing, not addicted to slot. After that, to reduce it, I am playing on website that don't have slot games inside.

The truth is that gambling companies will always get the money the gamblers put it, even including all the free bonuses they add.

They simply make these applications very addictive and fun to play, so that gamblers keep coming back for more. That's what the casinos want of course, because the longer you stay, the more money you gamble, and the more certain it is that the casino will keep your money.

Mistake #1 taking a deposit bonus. Mistake #2 thinking you would actually clear said deposit bonus. Most casinos offer these bonuses in order to get signups and to let people play a little while on a 1st depo or reload bonus without having to spend the extra money. You get a lot of play from a small deposit and can try their games out. Every once in awhile someone will clear the bonus and cashout, but even then lots of casinos limit the max win to $100.

Basically only accpet a bonus if you have the money to lose cause there's very low odds you'll complete the bonus terms.

am I the only one who feels that the thread title is different from the topic content?
I mean the title makes it appear that slot games are just a waste of time and money but the real discussion is just about bonuses and the requirements to be able to claim these bonuses. ::)

I will answer the title first, all gambling games, not just slots, but all games will definitely waste time if we gamble to make a profit, but it will be fun and entertaining if we gamble just to try our luck with the minimum amount you have and can afford to lose.
and it is natural that some people think that slot games will only waste their time because they lose, but if they win they will definitely say that slot games provide great luck. :P

and regarding these bonuses or requirements, I would not be surprised if you give up, even the oldest gamblers here will probably ignore bonuses with high requirements because it will be impossible for us to achieve these requirements because the casino cannot possibly want to go bankrupt so if we want to claim the bonus we also have to provide contributions such as betting 35x the deposit amount while the house edge will always win if you stay too long in gambling.
so in conclusion, dont take a bonus with conditions that are too high and check the rules before taking the bonus.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

The truth is that gambling companies will always get the money the gamblers put it, even including all the free bonuses they add.

They simply make these applications very addictive and fun to play, so that gamblers keep coming back for more. That's what the casinos want of course, because the longer you stay, the more money you gamble, and the more certain it is that the casino will keep your money.
Yeah, I think that's their strategy to keep their clients to play more even if they consistently losing their money. The graphic, huge winning prizes and the way on how to play slots is their strategy to capture gambler's interest. I agree that this is a waste of money because there's no guarantee of winning in slot machine, maybe there's a winning but a little chance and a small amount only, you can also get a free spin which convince you to play again.

One of the reason why I am not attracted to free spins offered by casinos. Because there's a wagering requirement (which is understandable) that is hard to achieve if you're just going to rely solely to the profit you gained from these free spins.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
I'm not a fan of slots but somehow I had experience of winning from Rise of Olympus using my small deposit money. But because it's a luck based games and having a decent bankroll is necessary (if you want to play longer and hoping to hit a high multiplier), I rarely play since I prefer to gamble live Baccarat where you can follow a patterns to somehow maximize the chance to win the bet, (although it's not guaranteed of course).

It is true that it has made many gamblers tempted to try their luck by choosing various slot games that they want, including participating in these dancing promotions. If we can limit our money for playing slots, especially always using small bets, it could provide entertainment even though we won't get a big chance of getting a big win. So it's best when playing slots, we have to limit the money and time we use so that we avoid big losses.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.

I'm sure you really understand that this game is purely luck based. so, your experience is our experience. All of us who like slot games, have a lot of experience with the many types of games available, either spending hours on end, or spending the funds we have by making deposits again and again and that's the ups and downs of slot type games.
But, it cannot be denied, if you are in lucky mode, good hit after hit comes towards you and maybe you can reach the Maxwin jackpot and at this point, we will get something fun in the game session.

Referring to what you said, specifically the last point you said. which gambler would be happy, if he never got a win. especially on targeted games, to claim bonuses. I think you understand very well that this is part of the risk. So the point is up to you, whether you are interested in getting bonuses or just playing with the idea of ​​filling your free time that you can spend without ending up in any trouble. Personally, I'm not too serious even though I like slot games. I mean, there is a quota that I budget for playing this game. the rest, I bet more on football.

Because getting free spins and then trying your best to withdraw the winnings but ending up back at the beginning is something I often experience. Therefore by giving away free spins personally consider it as entertainment and nothing more than that. Maybe just trying a few games, the casinos that give free spins bonuses are trying to entice you to return to the casino with money from your personal pocket. Is it worth it? depending on whether the wagering requirements reach a certain amount I will immediately see that you are directed to make a deposit. Slot games depend on luck and I don't have a big target when playing them.

Is this considered a waste of time and money? Of course not as long as you don't spend a penny and only aim to enjoy the free spins provided by the casino. Returning to the initial statement when you agreed to receive  free spins means you agreed on 2 things between coming out with a win or not at all.

Well man, this year I was lucky with the slots, I had a few positive sessions and I also got free spins from a previous signing campaign that were quite profitable, yes, they had no wagering requirements and if they gave me $25 in free spins and I won $100 with them I was able to withdraw them instantly.

But in general you have to be very careful because the slots are quite addictive and you can make a lot of money with them. Besides, they are usually the most profitable game for casinos.
Haha yeah, free spins are cool though in most cases, you end up winning nothing but sometimes like in your case, you can get lucky. I play at Bitsler and they give free spins and chests often and I'm yet to win anything significant lol.

Coming back to the topic of whether slots are a waste of money, No I don't think so, because slots are more fun in general. I don't know how people find any thrill or fun rolling the dice or dropping plinko balls all day. But when you are playing slots like Wanted, Warrior Graveyard you are always at the edge of the seat when those vs vs vs might drop :D.

Most of the free spin has a capped on max win while your reward is still locked with ridiculous wagering requirements so can’t benefit on it easily even if you huge amount on that free spin without risking your own bankroll to wager for it. You are lucky if you can use the free spin profit to wager but most of the casino lock it and allow only deposit money to wager for it.

Try playing games like Blackjack that reduce house edge to minimal level by using basic strategy. It’s correct approach on how to appreciate slot games through enjoying the game play but the RTP itself is really sucks considering the result is pure random

Slots are high variance in simple words. I mean in dice you would never win 1000x unless you select that multiplier while in slots you can max win suddenly out of nowhere. But, to get that max win you may have to spin a million times and in dice you can slowly build up profits.

Slots are for those looking to win big while originals are for those who are trying to wager or seek smaller profits. If I have deposited $10k, I am never going to touch slots with the exception of bonus buys because those are cool.

You can win big in slot games with big multipliers, but that obviously requires luck because slot games are luck based. Playing dice gambling requires luck, so if you are not careful in managing your expenses, you can spend a lot of money. However, many people love slot games and do not think that slot games are boring or a waste of time because they want to get big multipliers and will keep trying to get them. Don't deposit too much money if you are not ready for the risk, especially in slot games, which can really use up all your money without you realizing it. Always limit the amount of money and time you spend gambling or you will experience problems such as gambling addiction if you start gambling too often.

Yeah, I mean, if you gamble a small amount of money, or at least an amount of money that won't hurt you financially, then some people might enjoy that, as it is some extra fun, and maybe a tiny portion of them actually get lucky and win big.

But when gamblers put all their money into the casino, well, that's a different story.

Yes, we get it. Slot casino games are fun and thrilling, but what the OP says is about the minimum amount required of you before you can withdraw the money. The requirement is too big, and if you only rely on the money you've gained from the free spin, then it's definitely a waste of time as you don't have a guarantee to always win in every spin. Based on the required amount, it will take some time for the OP to reach it before he can withdraw the small amount he has earned, creating the temptation to deposit more money to achieve the required amount, which is a bit fishy. Why would a casino slot game have a super high withdrawal requirement? It could be a scheme by a scammer or untrusted casino sites.

Anyway, it's much better to read and see first if there is a withdrawal requirement before playing on a casino platform to avoid inconveniency and, of course, wasting time. Also,  don't rely on the free spins; they're just bait for you to deposit more money.

Of course, there are many kinds of casinos that always offer promotional promotions through advertising to attract the interest of gamblers to use the casino that is being promoted.
As smart users, we have to be smart in choosing a casino that doesn't just advertise tempting promotions. We have to be smart in thinking about whether gambling is not will give big wins unless we are really lucky, both physical casinos and online casinos in my opinion are the same, they only want to get big profits from gamblers who are able to carry out gambling activities, the casinos don't really force users to gamble but they just trying to tempt users, but if we can't afford to gamble then there's no need to force it, but if you want to try it's better to deposit a small amount of money and the most important thing is that you are willing to lose the money and don't try to return the loss.

If the goal of a gambler is to obtain profits with slot machines then there is no doubt they are wasting their time, and this is because slot machines have some of the worst odds you can find at any of the games offered by casinos, however if your aim is to get some fun with them then they are not so bad as you could hit a big multiplier from time to time and hit higher profits with a single spin than many other games in a whole session, so when I think about it I can see why many gamblers are attracted to slots.

Yes, and the maximum win limit can never be large amount because in this free spin it is also the same as the lowest bet.
It just that most people still really think that free spins can give them lots of benefits which makes them try to get them and even have lots of accounts on various gambling sites.
There are always withdrawal requirements for prizes in bonus rounds and of course this is difficulty for gambler because the amount won is definitely much smaller than the amount of bet that has become requirement to be able to withdraw it.
Casinos will always lock in any winnings on free spins bonuses until the wagering requirements are met and not many gamblers think this far when they go after them.

I don't really understand the game of blackjack and have only tried playing this game few times.
But can't the blackjack game be won when the gambler uses good skills and many gamblers state that this game is much better than slots.
It just that for me personally, skill games are games that really drain the mind because we will always think about how to play correctly to win.
Everyone probably prefers slots because they are easy to play and just wait for luck to come.

There are many things in the world of betting that lead to the title of your topic, OP.  Surely it's an consequences to your frustration at "not" winning.

Slots are one of the flagships of casino games, it is not the king of the game, but for many players it is.

Slots are mainly fun, by using a bet size appropriate to your bankroll you can have a long term, and that helps you wager, in reality when you achieve a high multiplier you are only recovering money, something normal, but it is what you have to... spin , spin, have fun and spin.

Because we all know how bad slot games are, as the OP has seen it, and that's why he conclude that it is a complete waste of time and money on his part. But there are gamblers that really loves to play slot machine and even if they are in the losing end, they will still consider and go and chase that feeling. Luck plays a big part on slot games, not everyone is blessed with the same luck, and so as gambler we wanted to be that one that is going to win the bonus or the eventual big jackpots that this slot machines offers.

Most time which I played slot games, anytime I won, I think I would have lost multiple times. Tye house has high rate winning compared to our individual self that could be in the haste to make money as a gambler. We need to study how the slot game works and how it was programmed to work. Gambling is a big risk for us if we don't look for something better to play to increase our tendency of winning.

The game is a game that really purely depends on your luck at that time, it is very difficult to go home with a win if you don't have or are less assertive in controlling yourself, when we have won any amount it is better to just withdraw in my opinion, I am also always like that when gambling on slots, because the change in luck there is very fast, maybe only a matter of minutes that initially you are lucky then the round will suddenly become very bad. I think lately a lot of people have lost a lot from this game but strangely there are still very many who prefer that type of game compared to others.

Random wins in slots are too difficult to conquer and it's very emotionally provoking, it seems like the game is set up with a very low winning percentage rate for gamblers, like you experienced and I also experienced the same thing where I had to sacrifice several losses just to get one win, it's very difficult to understand the slot algorithm. So I urge you to be more careful and strict in terms of setting some boundaries and self-control before you regret it.

I got used to slowing things down after a big win. Sometimes I do switch to another game because I feel like I won't win that same number twice in one game. Like lightning doesn't strike in the same place. But we all know it's a myth.
That's where the fun will begin, on how we will manage all those profits that we made. Like OP, he won a great deal of amount but it's because of the wager requirement that's keeping him from betting on the gambling site. The difficulty of winning again will be there because that's how the gambling sites are programmed.
By betting many times I learned that lesson and I am sure as hell that it ain't just me that realized these things are actually happening. The system (most of the time) will let you win at your early bets, the first 100 bets are so sweet that you will feel that it's too good to be true. Because it is. We gamblers will always let greed win and we will keep on betting either in slots or other casino games after that until we find ourselves in a losing spree.

Literally waste of time and money yet I'm still playing this shitty games for a chance to win big multiplier. The optimism on winning huge multiplier is they selling point of this game that's why many players keep playing this despite a terrible result in general.

You have literally encapsulated the reason why most people play slots- the possibility of winning a huge amount with that astronomically low chance of hitting the jackpot is what drives people to choose this game.

After I visited our local casino in our country, I have noticed that several of the people played slots. Every slot machine has two (2) jackpots- the GRAND jackpot and the normal jackpot in which the former contains like a million dollars on stake.

I can count using my finger my huge win on this game while I lose a lot on this game so in general this game is disaster for me just like you. I still preferred blackjack and sports bet compared to slot games if we are talking about the main game to play. I remember spending 4hrs of auto spin on slot game and end up in more than 50% loss to my bankroll plus migraine due to the animation.  :D

Slots are really designed for a typical gambler to just play and call it a day. It is mostly catered to the people who impulsively gambles since it wastes no time and it shows the amount of money you could possibly win.

Yeah, at the end of the day casinos have studied how brains work for a long time, and they know what they're doing.

A person looking at a multi-million dollar prize won't care about the probabilities as we didn't evolve a brain that deals with probabilities natively as compared to Newtonian physics (throwing a rock you don't have to calculate the parabola equation, you just "know it").

Casinos know that people are bad at probabilities and therefore they just show a big prize with minuscule chances. And people play. Because that's what our brain tells us to do. "There's a chance!"

Of course, there are many kinds of casinos that always offer promotional promotions through advertising to attract the interest of gamblers to use the casino that is being promoted.
As smart users, we have to be smart in choosing a casino that doesn't just advertise tempting promotions. We have to be smart in thinking about whether gambling is not will give big wins unless we are really lucky, both physical casinos and online casinos in my opinion are the same, they only want to get big profits from gamblers who are able to carry out gambling activities, the casinos don't really force users to gamble but they just trying to tempt users, but if we can't afford to gamble then there's no need to force it, but if you want to try it's better to deposit a small amount of money and the most important thing is that you are willing to lose the money and don't try to return the loss.
Of course, we as gamblers also have to be careful in choosing which casino is suitable for us from the many casinos that we encounter both out there and on this forum. Of the many casinos, only a few can be included in our list of trusted casinos so that we don't need to gamble at casinos that we don't know. So far, there have been many fans of slot games, especially now that there are so many slot providers in each casino, so this slot game gets lots of promotions every day or week to attract lots of gamblers. As gamblers, we also have to estimate how much money we can use to gamble so that we can prevent losing a lot. Only use the money you can afford and the rest, you will be fine with the self-control you have.

Of course, that's their marketing plan, so provide very attractive offers to gamblers so that they will have to play on that casino (with reputation), and then chase those wagering requirements that might not end good for us. Because we all know how bad slot games are, as the OP has seen it, and that's why he conclude that it is a complete waste of time and money on his part. But there are gamblers that really loves to play slot machine and even if they are in the losing end, they will still consider and go and chase that feeling. Luck plays a big part on slot games, not everyone is blessed with the same luck, and so as gambler we wanted to be that one that is going to win the bonus or the eventual big jackpots that this slot machines offers.
It's better not to force yourself to take part in a promotion if there are betting requirements that are very difficult to fulfill because we have to be wise in choosing the promotion so that we can get the bonus given in the promotion. Slot games can make a gambler spend more time just trying to get a big multiplier, and many of us have experienced this. We have to limit our use of gambling in this slot game because it can make us forget to stop gambling before all the money runs out or we can win. Indeed, luck plays a big role in slot games and only lucky gamblers can win at slot games with big multipliers. Others can only win small amounts of money.

I got used to slowing things down after a big win. Sometimes I do switch to another game because I feel like I won't win that same number twice in one game. Like lightning doesn't strike in the same place. But we all know it's a myth.
That's where the fun will begin, on how we will manage all those profits that we made. Like OP, he won a great deal of amount but it's because of the wager requirement that's keeping him from betting on the gambling site. The difficulty of winning again will be there because that's how the gambling sites are programmed.
By betting many times I learned that lesson and I am sure as hell that it ain't just me that realized these things are actually happening. The system (most of the time) will let you win at your early bets, the first 100 bets are so sweet that you will feel that it's too good to be true. Because it is. We gamblers will always let greed win and we will keep on betting either in slots or other casino games after that until we find ourselves in a losing spree.
I rarely get big wins. I can only keep trying to play slots but within safe limits and what I can afford. I try not to exceed the budget amount every time I play slots so that I can still control myself well. But indeed, I once lost control of myself, which made me play slots several times more rounds than I usually played. That's because I'm trying to chase another victory even though I've already won or want to recover from a previous defeat.

From there, I learned that you only need to play slots in moderation and you don't need to be too eager to chase wins or recover losses. We need to enjoy the slot game without thinking about it because it can make us have the desire to chase victory. If that happens, we can forget about restrictions and self-control and what will happen is that we will just continue playing in the next round without thinking about the remaining balance in the gambling account.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
I had also played slot games many time and end up in loses. I think that is how the game was programmed, you can't win the house and go like that. In every win, you might have about 10 loses. Most time which I played slot games, anytime I won, I think I would have lost multiple times. Tye house has high rate winning compared to our individual self that could be in the haste to make money as a gambler. We need to study how the slot game works and how it was programmed to work. Gambling is a big risk for us if we don't look for something better to play to increase our tendency of winning.
Exactly, it is better to study them before playing slot games. When you like to play slot machines it is useful to know about the different types of slots available. And volatility is also something to consider low volatility slots offer frequent returns, but for smaller amounts. High volatility picks can provide massive returns but you shouldn't expect this to happen often. Most players who want to collect rewards by playing these selections will choose a medium volatility option offering a mix of both so the risk may be lower.

Things don't work the same way for everyone, especially when it comes to gambling, the outcomes are always different for different people playing the same game because it's all about one's luck whether they will win or lose, and if they win, how much they are going to win, and if they are losing, how much in total they are going to lose. So, I don't think that it's just a game or a series of games that we should blame because it's our luck that isn't favoring us in this thing.

Talking about personal experience, I'm actually in the same boat as you because I've never won anything very significant from slots games, it doesn't mean that I never got any big wins, but they were never big enough like some people get 1000x or even higher, the highest I've ever got was 100x.

People should realize this on which when it comes to luck factor then everyone would really be entirely be different and this is why if we do see someone whose really that lucky when it comes to slots
and making some huge wins then dont try out to copy yourself into them because it would really be just that make you desperate and this is really that dangerous on gambling field.
Slot games are waste of time, yes a part of but we know that everything is created for the sake of fun and not for making money. You would really be finding yourself on great trouble
if you do end up on getting addicted to it.

You would be finding the game to be boring if you are really that expecting for slot game or any games to be profitable. If you are that someone whose really that
expecting something like this then you would definitely fail and this is something that do really happen inevitably unless if you do have that good self
control then you might be able to skip on this one.

It's not really a big matter if you choose low RTP or high RTP, the outcome is pretty much same. The difference is time, in high RTP games you might able to gamble longer while in low RTP games is shorter.

There's no study when it comes to slots, only need to learn how to control yourself.

That's not how it is for slots though, the odds of slots are equal to all players. The outcome is different because we're only seeing those who wins and the different slot combinations for each spins and so we think that it's different but in the mathematical side of slots, the probability is always the same for the combinations, sometimes it just so happens that some hit the winning probability more than others. Same for me, slots in a casino is the best way that you can lose your money, there's a reason why there's a lot of slot machines in the casinos all over the place, they also have the highest house edge I think so definitely stay away from slots as they're really a waste of time.

I personally belive that slot games are the type of games that mostly to be played for fun, and not one to expect to make profit from, though it is still very possible to make huge profit from playing slot games, but it's also very important for us as gamblers not to set our minds on that, since it only happens by chance, and only to those who are extremely lucky.
Slot games are games that are completely luck based, the outcome of the game can not be manipulated by the gambler him or herself, only the casino and/or game provider have such ability to sometimes, manipulate the outcome of a slot game, but then, reputable casino and game providers will not engage themselves in doing such.

I myself have never made any huge wining from playing slot, but then, I still try it from time to time to see what luck holds for me for that day, I still enjoy playing the game even though most of the time, the outcome hasn't always been pleasant.

Well, this thing about slots is a whole theory, as I said before, they always try to inform me about slots, and you're right, there are many types of slots, and for example, the bitcaisno.io blog has a couple of very interesting articles. nice people who talk about slots and give great advice, this is something that is very good, very informative and very illustrative, I have a lot of respect for slots because they are the easiest way to lose money when you don't know how to play, and even more so when If you have little money, you have to play very carefully and not allow a poorly made bet to win you a lot of money, the slots are totally taken to the planes of luck, or you know what will happen, and the rules are something that They can be applied but there is no infallible strategy that makes us win, that is impossible, I do like to see the strategies, the techniques that we always have to do in the slots, but basically all of this could be one or the same as it could not control those strategies.

In the  person when I play I always apply strategies, but there are some that work for me at a given moment, but others don't, and that is abnormal, I only learn them because I like it, and since I have a very peculiar way of playing slots, where basically I'm not looking for money but just to have fun, since I see the slots as a service for which you have to pay, well that's how I see it, and clearly there is a chance to lose and win, when it's my turn to win, it makes me I'm happy, because I see the slots as a way to relax, just like what it feels like to be in a soccer studio, supporting your team and hoping that you win, that's what I feel when I'm in the slots, but of course I wish it were 90 minutes + extra time + penalty, it's not a very short time because I spend little money playing, because as long as I have fun for a little while, that's enough for me to make it worth it, that's how I play in the slots.

You're correct, slot games might be a waste of time to the OP and he has his reason as he hasn't made good profits from playing slots games but it isn't to every individual that's gambling that slot games are a waste to. Some individual might find it very easy to win when they play slot games because that's where there luck is. Don't discourage anybody from playing a specific games as you might be denying them their victory and make them not to win when gambling.

All gambling have to try different games until they find the perfect game that they can win. Some individuals will find luck early as they begin to gamble but others will take some time and losses before they find the game that they can win. I tried many games before I began playing sport betting and I discovered it's the best game for me to play when I want to gamble and it has been working for me. I don't win every time but I enjoy playing it and also make some profits too.

If you need to reach $750 before withdraw, then that is between 46 and 47 times wager, which is a lot because the usual wagering requirement is only at 30x something. And even the 30x is also too much and will mostly end you up with a zero balance before you complete it.

If we know that the casino that we play has a wagering requirement, it's best to not expect too much, especially if you already won something after the free spins have been completed because the game or challenge is only getting started. You still have a long way to your success. But anyways, you still have done a good job there for reaching that high wager out of a small balance. Better luck next time mate.

That is what each gambler will get when playing slot games because they will have different luck. Perhaps there will be many of them who will lose a lot of money while only a few people can from the same slot game, so they really hope for their luck to come when they play slots. Slot games can make them lose a lot of money, especially for those who can't control themselves and only chase wins. They must have luck to be able to win from slot games.

Very few people can actually get 1000x from slot games because it will depend on luck. Maybe gamblers can win 100x, but to get a big multiplier, it really requires a lot of luck. I've also never had a big win because my luck probably hasn't come around yet. But I can only win a certain amount of money, which often doesn't break even. It's very rare to break even.

At least to me it seems the discomfort the OP has with slots is misplaced as they were getting good results for a long time, it is just the wager requirements were completely ridiculous and only the luckiest would have been able to withdraw any money, so the lesson here is that before accepting any bonus or free spins we really need to read what are the terms given by the casino, and if they are not good then we can reject them knowing we are not missing anything at all.

Slot games are part of the games which have a negative expected value. It is easy to start playing and takes no skills from your part.

The games are attractive by its colours, animation and sounds which feeds the gambler's mind with good emotions and a sens of winning when actually they are losing money on every spin.

Once a while those specials will roll in, but by the time that happens the player would have already lost a lot.

Visit the land based casinos in Vegas and you will find people stuck on slot machines for days with nothing but losses playing like zombies.

That's my opinion too, and I don't like slots too much either: I prefer the games that make me feel a (sometimes false) sense of control and with slots I lose it in the first spin. I'm putting my future in odd's hands, or worse, algorithm's (if an algorithm had hands).

To be honest, one of my colleagues mentioned migraine and that's what I feel with slots. Maybe it's not so much about control, but about all these sounds and movements: I still like crash, dice and specially bingo, and you don't have much control there either, so I guess that likability towards one or another game is the sum of different prejudices and sensations, apart from cold reasoning and study of probability.

Just play for fun; don't get addicted to it. I don't see anything wrong with slot games here at Crypto Casino, to be honest. Though, even though I don't experience winning a huge amount, it's okay because sometimes I win too, and at least the important thing is that I enjoyed it and didn't get bored.

slot games and dice games both use a random algorithm which means they both have the same level of difficulty because to win we need luck and for me, many gamblers play slot games rather than dice games because there are many types of slot games and the appearance is attractive and makes us comfortable and there are many types of slot games that we can choose according to our wishes, while dice games only have almost the same appearance in every casino.

so it is very natural that many gamblers play slot, not because it is easy to win but simply because it is more interesting and also the current trend in gambling is that playing slot is busy so most have already played this game.

if we talk about big wins, its actually just about luck because it very rare for a gambler with a small budget to get a big win because if you're not lucky, you'll lose more quickly in slot games.

Slots game is more comfortable for me, it's easier to get along with this why it's many favourite, if you are determined to win money from slots you can be disappointed, because it's 100% all about luck, you should look into poker to apply monitoring and skills, there is no such thing in slots games.

You must only risk what you can afford with slots, because you can keep losing every rounds you have left, and luck comes only once in a while, I have my good days with Slots games and also my bad days, but I am thankful that I maintain my strategy, I don't use more than I can afford to lose and it's not a must for me to gamble everyday, unless I feel like, so for someone like me, I don't expect to make money when I gamble, I understand the game.

Totally agree with "slots are all about luck". With slots, you can really relax while gambling. Because all you have to do is to click on spin, or set autospin and watch. With other games, gambler either needs to get a concentration to make bet correction, or to use math, or to have some strategy. With slots all you have to do is to deposit and watch. Minimum action required.

I havent done a research, but are the slots that allow 1sat or 1 cent bets? If there are so, they might be a solution small against addiction or desire to gamble. Play smallest possible spin, watch, kill time and kill your inner desire to gamble. I think a person will get tired watch quicker than he would lose $20-50 deposit. He will get his doze of adrenaline and is free to go.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

I mean obviously you should not expect to find free cheese anywhere other than in a mouse trap. Sounds like the promotional bonus of free spins worked as intended for the casino.  ;D ::)

I assume that you are talking about playing on your regular casino in which case I understand you need to wager a certain amount but in the future, when you do not have this limit anymore, will you put personal gambling rules into place, both for loss and win limits? I would recommend it. Although I must say that it was a smart and experienced decision to stop gambling when you did. Sure, you might have gotten lucky if you kept going but thats just not how it works in the real world. The probabilities are always against you in gambling. I find that having rules helps.

Personally, I like slot games but they can get a bit boring if you play them too long. Perhaps you can leave things as they are for now and decide whether or not you want to pick up where you left off in the future? The wager requirement does not reset after some time, does it?

Nothing to expect if we are looking a strategy to use since all result will show up is based on random form so I guess people should now waste their time seeking something can help regarding on their plans to play and win on slot games since they might not get the expectation the look forward to it. So maybe they should  bet and enjoy the game since expecting a huge gain might not come since we really need to became a extreme lucky person before we hit those big gains on slot games.

There are some people will get tired looking at it but there are some enjoy even if they lose that's why slot games still a popular game in a casino since it rise up the competitiveness of people to gamble their luck and win according to what current situation they are on while playing.

I think that way is just a waste of their time, or that means that any strategy or strategy will not be useful in gambling like slot machines, as you said that the final result is always random and that means that the casino will not see what way you do it, but they will probably divide the winnings randomly and no matter how good the strategy you use, to be honest I have tried several times to apply the strategy that my friend said was very useful to get a win but when I have tried it several times honestly there is not a single result that can make me smile.

With that, I really understand that gambling like slot machines really only requires your luck at certain times and there is no other way than that. Yes that's right, it's better to just enjoy the gambling, and don't expect too much victory especially with large amounts, I think it will only make you disappointed at the end of the session when luck is not in your favor because everything is always about how lucky you are at that moment. In my opinion, slots are a game that is really difficult to solve, so if you are lucky and get a win of any amount then it's better to leave immediately, because luck there will be very fleeting.

Arent slot machines the only gambling where you can get a jackpot if you gamble offline? Never heard that anyone won jackpot by playing table games, only heard that people won big amounts because they placed huge bets, accepted huge risk and were lucky. With slots, every money spent goes into one unite jackpot. Which makes it possible to win with any bet on any slot. And that breaks the myth that  slots are waste of time and money.

You have the ability to accept the dance of slot games because it feels comfortable to you. But since it is completely luck dependent, it may not be comfortable for everyone. To get a big win from slots, it takes a long time to play and lose a lot of money, and if you are lucky, you can get a huge win from here.

It's a good decision on your part to be content gambling with as much loss effort as you can afford. Because of this you don't have to accept any bad experience. And if you can maintain it then it will never give you a bad experience. Since slot games are completely based on luck, I would say that anyone who is afraid of taking risks should avoid slots and do sportsbet

Slots games known to be having that very huge house edge on which this is way more than on a dice game could have on which it would really be that so hard to win up but eventually there are really gamblers who are really that interested on playing such games on which it is really that evident and really that obvious if we do see on the number of players who do play on slots on which it is really that actually we could say
that interest is really high. Yes, we've been able to see those winners who do really make out those kind of big wins on slots on hitting up jackpots on which it is really that possible and could really be done
but actually this is something that could happen but of course it would really be needing that kind of extreme luck.

These kind of big wins or jackpots could really trigger out that kind of interest on someone specially if they have seen that they had only bet up a small amount and hitting
those jackpots and this i could believe that it is really one of the triggers on why people do really tend to play even further.
Slot games that require luck have really made many gamblers come back and take the risk of losing more money. These gamblers are ready to lose even all the money they deposit, so they want to keep returning to the casino to play their favourite slots or play slots from other providers. Of the many gamblers who dare to take the risk of losing their money, some actually get big wins in the form of jackpots from slot games. They deserve it because their luck has come at the right time, giving the gambler a big win. But other gamblers will find it difficult to win because they won't get their luck.

Slots are the most "fun" game around according to some people, I personally do not enjoy them all that much because I feel like they are brain numbing and I do not get that much fun out of them. However, I od agree that there are a lot of people who enjoy it a lot and they like to just spend time like zombies.

I do not mean that in a bad way, they like to just lay down on a couch, open up their phone, open up the app or the website, and then start gambling on a slot game for 8 hours straight, I have seen this first hand, I have seen my wife do it. That's not a thing I would love to do, but that also doesn't mean that there aren't any people who does it, there are plenty of people all around the world who likes to do that. Just like some people watch youtube, some watch netflix, some read books, some listen to podcasts, there are also people who likes to gamble on slots and the result doesn't matter, they just like to spend time doing that, it's as simple as that.

How come a game that even a no brainer can play is a brain numbing while you are just clicking spin button and watch for the result. Surely you will not pay attention on the game if you are just playing using an amount which is too small or just a demo account because you don’t feel the excitement and thrill of the game itself.

Probably you are just not a fan of games that is just spin and win but slot games is designed to become entertaining due to the graphics and different gameplay mechanics that varies per slot type.

Well, having one bad experience doesn’t mean that all slots are a waste of time and only programmed to take your money 100% of the time. True! It’s hard to make a profit with slots or hit the jackpot that everyone is chasing. Personally, I love playing slots to a far point and it’s the best games on the whole casino that push my adrenaline and enjoy playing. I had several sessions and experiences but not all of them are lost, I manage to win some and lose some but what matters for me is having a great time despite losing the session.
Also, take in mind that playing with a small sum or a big sum is different, it’s better to lose. A small sum than a big sum of money. Sometimes, I lose on small bonus buy, and win when I rise the bonus buy amount then cashing out which means a winning session for me.

We don’t judge anything with one experience, gambling in general is a business for a casino to win but doesn’t mean all people will lose and that’s the key why people are gambling and trying to be the ones who win.

For real, slots and dice are actually fun as you would literally have the thrill by just relying on luck, just simply throw the dice and push the roll button and you would never know if you are gonna win or not. I think there are some people who use some calculation by how many times they should play in order to achieve the prize, but I think it's still based on luck caused by just a simple miscalculation you might lose a lot of money. I think if you are already playing on the slots for a long period of time, there's a chance you would be familiar and made your own pattern to win. Personally, I wouldn't hassle myself with trying hard to win prizes on slots using math, especially in the casino cause I ain"t Eisntein when gambling.

Probably one of the most lame games nowadays, deriving from the old-fashioned slots casinos had when they were first founded. You simply click a button, no anticipation, almost a non existent adrenaline rush, like the one you get from the Crash game. There are far better games that also offer greater chances of winning, such as Crazy Time, Megawheel, and plenty of other options. I had also received a signup bonus of a handful of spins on slots, not on a cryptocurrency casino but on a regular online one, which is quite popular in my country. I managed to win a few cents, which grew into a few dollars before losing them.

Well, you both are right, slot games are actually entertaining if you are playing wit a big bankroll, and don't mind how much you loss in the process, but to be honest, crash game is a much better game to play compared to slot, crash is more entertaining even though both crash and slot games are both complete luck based games.

In slot games, it's very easy to shift one's mind away from the entertainment side of the game and focus on making profit, which completely ruins the real reason for the game in the first place. But for crash game, one just can't help but get entertained due to the adrenaline rush that comes with not knowing how far the plane will fly before it crashes, I usually start kicking my both feets and my heart skipping beats when ever the plane have travels too long without crashing, like 20x and above, while I still have my bet in the front  ;D.

As much as you are right with all that you have said, point of correction is that, I never said that this experience is the first for me when it comes to slot, as a matter of fact, I started my online gambling with slot games, that is, slot games were the games I started my online gambling journey with, back in those days, I knew nothing about football or any other type of sports, I didn't even know how to successfully place a bet on a sports game in an online casino, so, i solely focused only on playing slot games while learning about sports betting bit by bit.

Long story short is that, I've been playing slot games for as long as I have been in online gambling, this is neither my first experience as you wrongly assumed, and neither is it my second, or third, or even the hundredth experience, so, when I say that slot games are a waste of time and money, I know what I am saying, and that is that, for those who are gambling for profit, slot games aren't the best type of games to play, for the average gambler will always loss when it comes to slot games.

If you're looking for money, I personally feel that the easier the game is and the less choice you have while playing, the worse are your odds.
Games like dice and slots allow you to win with 0 skill. All you do is press a button or pull the lever (of course in case of online games it's a click of a mouse, or a touch of the screen).

The higher the difficulty of the game the better your odds. Poker is probably at the pinnacle of this list, but sports aren't far from the top. Slots and dice are at the very bottom, but at least slots can entertain you with themes and music, so if you have to complain, complain about dice.

Slot is never a waste of time or money, what we do and how we play it are what determines the money used to play slot as being waste or not, we can admit the fact that most of us often make some personal mistakes while playing slot, despite it's a kind of game which request a gambler to try his luck while playing, which i believed shouldn't be taken as a means of waste of money, but it must be well understood that such is just the way this kind of game is being played by its nature.

It's easy to play, and the odds are great for the casino.

Card games, poker in particular, is probably the closest to having an advantage to the gambler. Still the casino has the advantage, but not that much.

To say that way, it is like saying that all kinds of gambling is a waste of time. Because in all gambling there are chances of winning as well as chances of losing. However, in this case, slot games directly depend on luck, on the other hand, in the case of sports betting, the probability of winning is a little higher if you keep the knowledge of the touch relationship.  Even then I would say that gambling is only played for entertainment purpose, then I call it slot game or sports game, I don't call it a time waste.

Of the four you mentioned, in my opinion, the most difficult are poker, slots and dice because sports betting itself will be easier when we have sufficient knowledge and experience because it is not like games that rely on luck and unlike poker which requires playing strategy.
Sports betting has different way of working from other betting options, but we must be able to collaborate between knowledge, experience and also beliefs or feelings.
Honestly, I don't really agree with you statement.

At the end of the day, slots are probably the games with the worst odds, that's why casinos are filled with them.

That because there are no opportunities that can be easily obtained from slot games because there is an RTP that is uncertain at all times and slot games work randomly.
Unlike other games, gamblers can use various strategies and slots don't really influence strategy.
What can be done is to determine the right time to have high RTP so that the returns in each round can be better to minimize significant losses.

That's true and that's why we have to be able to control ourselves by not gambling excessively and guarding the money we have so that it doesn't run out quickly in one day. We do have a chance of winning, but we also have a chance of losing, where the chance of losing can become big quickly if we can't control ourselves. Slot games can make people forget to restrain themselves from using too much money because that will only make them experience more losses. We also have to remember that slot games require luck to win, so we can only win if we have luck.

Yeah, slot machines are probably the most profitable ones from the casino's point of view.

I think most slot machines have a similar algorithm, and you can't really time then, or get one that is "due".

They are simply random all the time, with bad odds for the gambler.

We also have to remember that slot games require luck to win, so we can only win if we have luck.

The risk of a completely luck-based game like slot machines is huge and it's very frustrating, if you get involved but don't bring control and some strong boundaries to be honest I'm not sure you will be able to survive completely, even more often than not you will easily lose money very quickly. On the other hand, as you suggested about not going overboard with this type of game, I think this is a game that is too hard for people who are not mentally tough.

Of course then I hope that if you really want to get involved there then at least you have to find out first about the biggest impact that can happen and befall you, you can see many examples from other people's cases, for those who are too serious in putting hope by always chasing defeat in order to achieve recovery is very difficult and impossible in my opinion. So if you are not ready then I think it's better to look for other bets that are safer and not too draining mentally and your money such as maybe skill-based sports if you really have knowledge in the world of sports.

That because there are no opportunities that can be easily obtained from slot games because there is an RTP that is uncertain at all times and slot games work randomly.
Unlike other games, gamblers can use various strategies and slots don't really influence strategy.
What can be done is to determine the right time to have high RTP so that the returns in each round can be better to minimize significant losses.

Yeah, slot machines are probably the most profitable ones from the casino's point of view.

I think most slot machines have a similar algorithm, and you can't really time then, or get one that is "due".

They are simply random all the time, with bad odds for the gambler.

Yes, and I think most people prefer playing slots compared to other gambling games. Maybe there is an advantage to the slot itself, namely that you only need to bring a gadget and it is easy to play anywhere with friends while hanging out together.

Basically the same, namely there is no playing time limit and there are no rules for placing bets, so people will find it easy and free to run their slots. And if gamblers don't immediately realize it and stop doing it, it will have a bad impact on their lives, because in gambling actually more people experience losses than those who experience profits.

What about you?
In this case, indeed, the best and wisest thing is to stop it. Sometimes, gambling really makes us full of joy because we gamble just for fun. But, not always, because, sometimes, the lure or temptation of money smells very sweet. So without realizing it, we have lost a lot of money in slots. Indeed, there is no doubt that slots are quite dangerous, especially for those of us who cannot really control ourselves and understand the risks, sometimes we chase results to get $100, and we feel incredibly happy. Meanwhile, in fact, it turns out that if we add it up, we have already spent $1000 on slots.

To say that way, it is like saying that all kinds of gambling is a waste of time. Because in all gambling there are chances of winning as well as chances of losing. However, in this case, slot games directly depend on luck, on the other hand, in the case of sports betting, the probability of winning is a little higher if you keep the knowledge of the touch relationship.  Even then I would say that gambling is only played for entertainment purpose, then I call it slot game or sports game, I don't call it a time waste.
That's true and that's why we have to be able to control ourselves by not gambling excessively and guarding the money we have so that it doesn't run out quickly in one day. We do have a chance of winning, but we also have a chance of losing, where the chance of losing can become big quickly if we can't control ourselves. Slot games can make people forget to restrain themselves from using too much money because that will only make them experience more losses. We also have to remember that slot games require luck to win, so we can only win if we have luck.

The risk of a completely luck-based game like slot machines is huge and it's very frustrating, if you get involved but don't bring control and some strong boundaries to be honest I'm not sure you will be able to survive completely, even more often than not you will easily lose money very quickly.

Slots are the very definition of luck-based gambling. We get their appeal - bright lights, exhilarating sounds, adrenaline rush! However, these games are meant to capture, attract, and trap. The risk? Massive. Your boundary focus is vital. Without them, one descends into loss and frustration. People chasing losses, a vicious cycle that spirals out of control, is common. However, what about fun? Slots are fun if played sensibly. The key? Moderation. Limit time, money, and emotions. Remember, there are many entertaining ways to gamble, like sports betting, where information is power. Gambling should be fun, not for recovery or profit.

When we're having much fun we forget that we've been losing a lot. I think it depends on how you take that loss if that seems to be fine and you're enjoying the game. Think of the losses as your payment for the entertainment that you've taken from slots or any game. But we don't want to be losers at most times and even we're enjoying, it's no fun to keep on losing.

So without realizing it, we have lost a lot of money in slots. Indeed, there is no doubt that slots are quite dangerous, especially for those of us who cannot really control ourselves and understand the risks, sometimes we chase results to get $100, and we feel incredibly happy. Meanwhile, in fact, it turns out that if we add it up, we have already spent $1000 on slots.
Those who have no control over themselves won't notice that they're losing a lot so they need to check themselves before continuing. Because they will keep on losing money as the paced of this game is very quick to the point that you're fine to lose money because all you think about is having fun. And if you're okay with that, you gotta have a lot of money and it's not going to affect you a lot when you're having that position when you gamble and losing a lot.

But for normal folks like me and you, we don't need to realize that we've been losing even if we're having fun. Because those that are in control will already see that we've been losing a lot of money and we can't take to have that on a continuous mode especially if there's a big money involved.

It's surely true that the importance of establishing strong boundaries and maintaining control to navigate the frustration and potential financial losses. The cautionary note about the difficulty of surviving without these precautions underscores the need for mental toughness in engaging with based-luck games. Your suggestion to avoid going overboard and highlighting the challenging nature of slot machines aligns with the idea that it requires a resilient mindset. That is a wise advice for potential players to understand the potential impacts by learning from others' experiences. It's good to emphasize the difficulty of recovering losses through persistent chasing.

Skill-based sports bets is a safer bets for anyone who has relevant knowledge about the sport. This is a good recommendation for a pragmatic approach to gambling. It underscores the importance of choosing activities that are not only financially sound but also less mentally draining. This balanced perspective encourages responsible gambling practices and aligns with the idea of making informed choices in the realm of betting.

You are right, slot games are really the fastest way to burn money when it comes to gambling, even if one is betting the lowest or the minimum amount, it is still very possible to lose more than a hundred dollars in an hour or even less.

I personally have come to see slot games as a means of just having fun because, making anything tangible from slot that you as the player don't end up losing all back to the casino is simply by luck, and such luck is very rare.

I can't deny the fact that, many have made good money from playing slot games, that is, they won live changing amount of money, and I myself have been hoping and looking forward to the day I will also share the same testimony as those who have made it through playing slot games, but it seems that, the more I try, the lesser it looks like my chance of ever winning are 😁.

As someone who usually prefers slot games when I gamble I claim that this is partly a waste of time and money and partly not. For example, since the reason why I generally prefer slot games is to spend some time and have fun, I think that this isn't a waste of time and money for me because I enjoy playing slots and I already take the risk of losing the money I will use to play slots.

Although it is rare, there are sometimes I win when I play slots and for this reason I think that slot games aren't a waste of money and time. So, if I had to comment based on my own experience I can say that the idea that "playing slots is a waste of money and time" may be partially true. Since it is a form of fun for me and I rarely earn money I don't think it is a complete waste of money and time.

There is no entertainment in all games if you do not like it, if you cant enjoy it, and if you have your own preferences.
All games will also be waste of time and money if you cant control your gambling habit.
Wasting time or not is not about the game, it is subjective from our own preferences as gambler, based on ourselves on how to deal with our gambling habit.
Coming to possibility to make profit in these games, what kind of skills you are talking about and how it is possible to use skills while they are all luck based game.

Almost all of us know that slot games are a waste of time, but we still play them, slot games sometimes make us addicted more quickly because usually at small betting tables we often win. I've also never been lucky when playing slots because at the start of the round sometimes we can always win the bet on several rounds, but when changing tables to go up on a slightly bigger round I quite often lose the bet completely.

I'm also never happy when I experience a losing streak in slots, but it's hard to avoid this game when have money and there's almost no way to stop even though we know that winning at slots always relies on luck.

Not all gamblers in the crypto gambling industry think that slot games are just a waste of time. What if they help them get relief from the heavy problems they are going through? Would you say it's a waste of time?

That is to say, it depends on the reason why a gambler plays, especially for gamblers who see it as a source of income. They get a profit here not even every day, but when they win, they still get their money back. If you lose and still have some profit at the end, can you still say it's a waste of time? I'm just asking.

That makes sense, whether or not a game is a waste of time really comes down to each person's perspective on it. You're only really entertained when you play the games you like, like I do, out of thousands of games I only pick 1/2 that I visit every session, and that's fine with me and I wouldn't say it's a waste of money because I have an engagement plan that keeps me safe in terms of my budget.

I suspect that if you're trying out all the games that are out there it's likely that your goals are different to some people who are still fully conscious, I think it's likely that you want something beyond the fun of it, so you're trying out all the games with the aim and hope of "hopefully finding a bit or even a lot of luck (winning)".

As you said above I agree that gambling is a complete waste of money when you get involved with the wrong approach and the wrong way and also driven by the wrong understanding of gambling itself, that's clear. If you gamble on games like slots then it's entirely up to you how lucky you are at the time, some methods/strategies really don't work, I've tried it and now it's your turn if you don't believe me.

If you are not a fan of gambling, you will find that it is a useless activity and a waste of time and money. It can be a detrimental thing if played by "stupid" people who cannot interpret and understand gambling. This is because such a person does not have the ability to determine when he should play jdui and when he should stop for a while from such activities, and such a person will continue to gamble as long as he has some money. and when the person is really addicted to gambling, then he will always try to get money so that he can play gambling, such as going into debt or selling his personal belongings that are quite valuable. but not for people who are wise in understanding and interpreting gambling, he knows very well when he should play and when he should stop, without having to leave what is his responsibility.

And speaking of the possibility of winning in gambling, we all have the same chance of winning, as long as we are still playing gambling. but are we able to create an opportunity to increase the probability of winning? I think this is something that is difficult for us to achieve, so instead of continuing to chase victory, we should continue to try to minimize the level of risk in playing gambling, so that we can prevent large and significant losses. And this we can achieve, namely with good self-control and good financial control as well.

Moreover, slot games can be played with very little capital. I've also played and never had big luck. but I have a friend who likes playing slots. He won several times even with small capital. whereas all I get is playing longer in the game. it's small wins that extend the duration of the game.
Slot games are just luck. There is no technique or formula that can make you win. I wouldn't say it's a waste of money. because I saw my friend win from slots. but still, we can't make it a way to earn income.

No one can predict the outcome of slots, someone's luck also varies. I myself often feel the same way, how can that person win with a minimum deposit. But after all, this is a game that requires emotional control. Sometimes, people who deposit a little can win, because they are patient when playing, not in a hurry to increase their bet when they win. Because this can also have a significant effect when he loses. I think I'm not part of them who can control my emotion. Because when I feel I already win, mostly I increased my bet.

Addiction, whatever it is, is a disaster. both for the sufferer, or the parties closest to him. Talking about slot games, as you said, this game is actually very easy to understand and easy to play. does not require special skills, let alone involves skills. what we need is a set of tools such as a smartphone, PC or so on as a medium to play it. plus, an account and money as a means to start the game.

Honestly, I like slot games. especially, during times when I'm relaxed and I have nothing to do but have fun. as you said, we even agree that this type of game really relies on luck. Therefore, we as players have to be clever at playing it and getting around it. You don't have to always win, because obviously this game cannot be predicted at all. What we can do is use the time as needed. We can start from the lowest bet, increase it slowly and then lower the bet again. adjust it to the game session, and what we are playing. The focus is, we only play to fill our free time, with limited capital, do various variables and have fun with it for relaxation. If you are able to reach this stage, a person will not be trapped in excessive gaming, let alone making deposits again and again. Likewise with me, football betting is my favorite. However, slots can be a diversion and how do we respond and utilize them.

And many young people, adults and the elderly also like to play slots because of the easy access to play them. There are benefits to playing slots, namely as entertainment for oneself at home when someone is stressed thinking about work or bored, but it requires proper control, namely limiting the amount of money and time, not running it continuously. If someone does not have these two things, it will cause major disasters in life and cause problems in their own family.

Slot games are a waste of time but sometimes gamblers use them just for entertainment and to try their luck, slots are a game that is easily addicted because the spins make us guess the results and hope to get a scater and get a big jackpot, because of the spins sometimes gamblers don't realize that they have spent a lot of time and a lot of money so they experience big losses without them realizing it, slot games must be used consciously, don't get too fixated on round after round because it tricks us into playing continuously and this can make us addicted to gambling. .

Many people experience the same thing, namely that they experience more losses than profits, even though the game is fun but cannot be used to make a definite profit because slots should only be used as a means of entertainment without too much hope of making a profit.

The risk of a completely luck-based game like slot machines is huge and it's very frustrating, if you get involved but don't bring control and some strong boundaries to be honest I'm not sure you will be able to survive completely, even more often than not you will easily lose money very quickly.

And many young people, adults and the elderly also like to play slots because of the easy access to play them. There are benefits to playing slots, namely as entertainment for oneself at home when someone is stressed thinking about work or bored, but it requires proper control, namely limiting the amount of money and time, not running it continuously. If someone does not have these two things, it will cause major disasters in life and cause problems in their own family.
That simplicity is what makes slots so popular, games that are many times more complex are nowhere near as popular as people are not going to invest their limited time trying to learn how to play one of those games properly, still slots are probably one of the worst games you can play when it comes to the house edge you have to face, and it is because of this reason I prefer other games as I can play them for cheaper and for longer compared to slot machines.

From here, people are more interested and try playing slots compared to other gambling games and there is no time limit for playing them. To be honest, I'm not very interested in the slot game itself because I often see people who are addicted to slots, their lives are very sad and I'm very concerned about seeing that.
And I also think that there are still other gambling games that only rely on small bets, and most importantly you have to stay focused on good self-control so as not to have a big impact when gambling.

Slots have one of the worst odd for winning for the gamblers. Slots were started as an arcade game and they are focused on entertainment than anything else.
There's zero skill involved in slots so anyone can play them without any thoughts and prior idea about rules. Even if you know the rules, there's no outcome you could change.
They are a fun way to pass the time and often getting smaller rewards, the gameplay lasts longer. The expectation of jackpot attracts the people.
They are one of the difficult games to implement betting strategies.

Moreover, slot games can be played with very little capital. I've also played and never had big luck. but I have a friend who likes playing slots. He won several times even with small capital. whereas all I get is playing longer in the game. it's small wins that extend the duration of the game.
Slot games are just luck. There is no technique or formula that can make you win. I wouldn't say it's a waste of money. because I saw my friend win from slots. but still, we can't make it a way to earn income.

No one can predict the outcome of slots, someone's luck also varies. I myself often feel the same way, how can that person win with a minimum deposit. But after all, this is a game that requires emotional control. Sometimes, people who deposit a little can win, because they are patient when playing, not in a hurry to increase their bet when they win. Because this can also have a significant effect when he loses. I think I'm not part of them who can control my emotion. Because when I feel I already win, mostly I increased my bet.

Being rational probably helps, but at the same time it is all about luck in the end.

The thing is that once you win big, you should stop playing if you do not want to lose what you won

That's right, many people like slot games because slot games don't require special skills, all you need to play slots is luck, the internet, and a device to play it.  but i personally don't really like slots because i don't have good luck when playing them, i actually really like sports betting because it requires analytical skills to be able to win the bet.  The thing that is quite dangerous about slot addiction is that we become debtors and our social relationships with those around us become bad, slots are fun but slot addiction is a disaster.
Moreover, slot games can be played with very little capital. I've also played and never had big luck. but I have a friend who likes playing slots. He won several times even with small capital. whereas all I get is playing longer in the game. it's small wins that extend the duration of the game.

Even though your friend can win at slot games, that doesn't mean that slot games are not games that waste money because most gamblers feel that the ratio of profit to the money that has been spent is sometimes not comparable because before they succeed in winning, quite a lot of money has been wasted. We see many players who win big money in slot games but we don't know for sure how much they have spent, but slots are always tempting and I feel this when opening a casino account besides sports betting, slot games are the next choice.

that's why many people lose more and more, people deposit the money and make it 2x, 3x, or even 10x of the deposit.
but in last they lose it all and think, they take that 1x loss as 10x loss which they made with gambling, and to recover the amount they deposited and won.
they deposit 2x because it will be easier to recover those loss, but this loss become bigger and bigger.
we think free money as we earned by working hard.

It don't mostly bothered myself about playing slot games because I know the house always have an edge on who is going to win and would is going to lose. Once we understand this, we have to be very careful how we bet on slot games especially when we don't have skills to back up our bets.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
In the past, I was a fan of gambling with this type of slot game, I liked to bet there, for the reason that the bonuses and multiplication of winnings were tempting, but more and more types of offers are being provided in slot games, Every day strange things happen, I really don't get luck every time I bet.

For this reason, I have stopped making bets in slot games for two years, I am lucky and enjoy placing bets on sports, for me sports betting makes me lucky, as the OP said, lately I can say that I am unlucky for this type of slot game, I don't know what happened, what is certain is that slots are not good for me now, I don't know in the future.

Yeah, similar here. I don't really see the attraction of slots. They mostly are addiction games that take all your money in the end.

I guess some people find them entertaining, lucky for me I don't. I can see how quickly you can pour all your money into these things, and get addicted quite fast.

Maybe there are other people got bored on slot since they don't see any real enjoyment with it but there are also people like it since they got entertained on random result it shows. That's why almost all of the casino offer this and have variety of choices on there casino sine they see a lot of demand from this game. If there's no people playing it for sure casinos will erase it on their games list.

I play slot if I'm bored and somehow got entertained playing  this game.

But I'm also not surprise for people saying they don't enjoy it since at the end of the day its still personal choice for people since not everyone have same satisfaction on each games they played.

People like slot machines because they have nice, shining, interactive graphics and can reward sweet profits all of a sudden. The thrill is great when you are placing small bets without any substantial winnings for a while, and then when you least expect a big prize or extra spins arrive on your gambling session. The gambler's joy is huge and hard to explain. It's different from every other categories of gambling games we have around. Despite the losses on long run, gamblers feel really excited and satisfied if they can just leave the casino once in a while with a slot's jackpot on their pockets.

This reminds me of my failed gambling endeavor and it has made me more miserable because I just realized I wasted money for nothing. It's just that luck wasn't on my side at that time and I accepted that it's not always going to be a lucky day. Maybe next year again? I seldomly gamble but it still hurts when you lose.

Because it is entertaining and thrilling, it is what makes many people love slot games and spend more money over time. They not only enjoy playing slots but they also want to win from playing slots so they spend more money trying to win. But unfortunately, because this slot game is based on luck, not many of them can win, let alone get big wins. But that doesn't stop them from trying another day because they still believe that they still have a chance to win. Sometimes, I also bet on sports betting if I feel like I can't win from slot games and just want to find new experiences in other gambling games. But slot games can take more time and money because there are factors that entertain us in playing slots.

And yes, playing slots requires strong self-control and clear boundaries so we can know when we should stop. Having to stop here means we shouldn't play slots continuously because this type of game is very tempting and can make us addicted. That could be the reason many people like this slot game because the temptation to get big multipliers that can give them big wins makes them unable to stop playing slots easily.

Only with awareness and self-control can they realize that they have gone too far in playing slots so they can decide to start reducing their gambling. Otherwise, they will really lose a lot of money and it could make them go bankrupt.

It's actually easy to resist the temptation of slots if we have strong self-control, because I myself until now have no longer been easily tempted by slots, I myself have felt bored and fed up with slot gambling that is just that, also from the smaller chances of winning making the most losses in the can make me aware of gambling that only spends money unclearly, I now play slot gambling only when I want it, so I no longer force myself to continue gambling because I already know the end of gambling games, not that I don't believe in big wins, but I'm just tired of the end of slot gambling. I'm proud of what I've done, being able to limit my gambling activities, and this is also good for me because my finances are now starting to be controlled.

My advice, it's better to be aware of the gambling that has made you lose a lot of money. Also never have the principle of gambling again with the aim of chasing wins in order to cover the losses that have occurred, because that will only make our lives ruined in the future. It is better to gamble reasonably, and as time goes on, I think gamblers will feel sick and tired of the game like me, but I don't know if I'm just basing my guesses on this because everyone has different thoughts so there is no force to stop gambling, because later they will also think about what they are doing whether right or wrong.

Every person must have boredom or easy boredom like you and me. Gambling with the mood can make the gambling that is played will make us happy. So indeed the mood also determines the game we play.

I also sometimes like that, gambling slots but if the spin already looks bad or already feels different where doubling appears less often or others, I like to decide to switch, even I once felt bored playing slots to the point that I increased the amount of bet and played it with no sense of enthusiasm or hope, maybe because I was fed up and bored with the game that was no longer cool.

They are one of the difficult games to implement betting strategies.

Of course slot gambling does not require good skills, because people who are just gambling are just beginners, they can play it because there is no requirement to understand everything, besides slot gambling is easy to do, so it is natural that many people are interested in this type of gambling. because this type of gambling is quite simple to play, so it makes it easier for everyone to recognize it and play it. In contrast to poker, where poker is a mathematical game at its core, so the game of poker involves good skills. Because good skills can bring victory.

You are right, this game also doesn't require a strategy, because in my opinion slot gambling mainly only relies on luck to be able to win, whether the win is big or small, it cannot be separated from luck. Sometimes, slot gambling can make us forget about time, because the game is floating, so you don't win or lose, so it's just there. I have experienced this so that it makes me bored with the floating game, because not giving me a win doesn't make the money I have in slot gambling run out.

Slot games are actually entertaining and thrilling but for me it would really just that only last or would really be just good on just few rolls and im not that a gambler whose really that
playing long with slots because i do get easily bored and this is why when i do play some casino games then it would be neither on slots,roulettes or dice games etc... On the time that
i do get bored then this is the time i would really be considering on making some sports bet on which i do really make those  changes of games whenever on what my mood is.
There are times on which i dont like to play casino games on entire day and would be focusing on playing or betting on sports and there are days which i do play only casino games
or something interchangeable.
Because it is entertaining and thrilling, it is what makes many people love slot games and spend more money over time. They not only enjoy playing slots but they also want to win from playing slots so they spend more money trying to win. But unfortunately, because this slot game is based on luck, not many of them can win, let alone get big wins. But that doesn't stop them from trying another day because they still believe that they still have a chance to win. Sometimes, I also bet on sports betting if I feel like I can't win from slot games and just want to find new experiences in other gambling games. But slot games can take more time and money because there are factors that entertain us in playing slots.
There are really indeed people who do really play slot games on hardcore mode and doesnt matter if it is really just trying out to bang up that roll button because they do really find out to be interesting comparing into those other games which they arent really that getting that interest on and there are people who do see that slot games are just that boring and not something interesting to play on but seeing on the demand
and providers existing then we can definitely say that there's really demand into it because it wont really be offered if casinos are seeing that there's no demand into it.So its not really that a waste of time
because im also used to be a slot gamer but just like been said by some people on which i dont really see any fun on seeing those images spinning.

So it would really be just that depending on someones preference and interest because not all gamblers would be sharing up on the same interest when it comes to game types.
This is why it would be better that you should really be sticking into the games on which you are really that interested into.

It's actually easy to resist the temptation of slots if we have strong self-control, because I myself until now have no longer been easily tempted by slots, I myself have felt bored and fed up with slot gambling that is just that, also from the smaller chances of winning making the most losses in the can make me aware of gambling that only spends money unclearly, I now play slot gambling only when I want it, so I no longer force myself to continue gambling because I already know the end of gambling games, not that I don't believe in big wins, but I'm just tired of the end of slot gambling. I'm proud of what I've done, being able to limit my gambling activities, and this is also good for me because my finances are now starting to be controlled.

My advice, it's better to be aware of the gambling that has made you lose a lot of money. Also never have the principle of gambling again with the aim of chasing wins in order to cover the losses that have occurred, because that will only make our lives ruined in the future. It is better to gamble reasonably, and as time goes on, I think gamblers will feel sick and tired of the game like me, but I don't know if I'm just basing my guesses on this because everyone has different thoughts so there is no force to stop gambling, because later they will also think about what they are doing whether right or wrong.
The problem is that not all gamblers can resist the temptations of gambling easily. Most of them will lose self-control when they play longer than usual because they find there is more fun than before. They will see an opportunity to win, so they don't think about stopping gambling but instead become even more eager to win the gambling game. That's what ultimately makes them fall deeper into gambling, especially if they play slots that rely on luck. They see that many slot games can give them the opportunity to win big but they don't think that it can also make them experience big losses. Temptations like that can make them use more money to win slot games, especially if they see there is still money in their wallet so they will deposit it to continue playing slots.

If someone has experienced a bigger loss than before, they must immediately stop gambling and immediately leave the casino so that they are not tempted to continue gambling. Even though there are still many people who are tempted to continue playing gambling, they should not let that happen to them because after all, they must be able to save their money from losing money in gambling games. This requires practice for some time until they can stop themselves from gambling and it is not easy. Only with continuous practice can they do so that they don't play slots for too long, which can make them lose and lose more money than before.

There are really indeed people who do really play slot games on hardcore mode and doesnt matter if it is really just trying out to bang up that roll button because they do really find out to be interesting comparing into those other games which they arent really that getting that interest on and there are people who do see that slot games are just that boring and not something interesting to play on but seeing on the demand

So it would really be just that depending on someones preference and interest because not all gamblers would be sharing up on the same interest when it comes to game types.
This is why it would be better that you should really be sticking into the games on which you are really that interested into.
There are definitely people who really press the button and wait for the results to come out and don't think about what if they lose a lot. They may still wait for their big win by getting a big multiplier from playing slot machines but they should know that getting a big multiplier is very difficult. No one knows when they will get it and if they press the button, manual or automatic, they may end up losing more. But that's where slot games are interesting, so many people are interested in playing them, especially since they can get big wins by getting big multipliers too. But some other people think playing slots is boring because they have never won anything. After all, this slot game requires luck.

Casinos know about a person's preferences and interests, so casinos try to provide many gambling games that will make gamblers more interested in gambling. Casinos always know what gamblers want and add many other games based on luck and skill so that gamblers can choose the games they like.

To say that way, it is like saying that all kinds of gambling is a waste of time. Because in all gambling there are chances of winning as well as chances of losing. However, in this case, slot games directly depend on luck, on the other hand, in the case of sports betting, the probability of winning is a little higher if you keep the knowledge of the touch relationship.  Even then I would say that gambling is only played for entertainment purpose, then I call it slot game or sports game, I don't call it a time waste.
Whether someone considers a certain game in gambling useless, a waste of time and money, or anything, it depends on the outcomes they got from that game. A person who has hit a 1000x multiplier in a slots game wouldn't have the same sentiments about the slots games, whereas a person who has just lost $1,000 in a slot machine would be abusing all the slots games and will be blaming them for the losses he had to experience, different people will have different opinions based on what they have got from it.

When we talk about the types of gambling, I would say that sports betting isn't something that one would get involved with just for entertainment because what's so entertaining about reading data and doing analysis just to be able to choose the better side for a certain match? What people often use for fun and entertainment are gambling games such as slots or dice or any other game because they are interactive and you play them to pass the time.

What each person finds enjoyable or not is up to them, however it is clear that despite sport bets not being as attractive as games like slots that they are incredibly popular, and the issue regarding analyzing the data turns out to not be an issue at all when it comes to sport bets, as I am sure you have known many people that argued they were terrible at math, and suddenly if you began to talk about their favorite sport those same people will recite complex statistics and a bunch of numbers as if they were math experts, so it is obvious a person like that will enjoy looking at all kind of data to improve their chances of winning their bets, even if for many other people that was a very boring activity.

Yes, it is not easy to resist the temptation of gambling but we still have the opportunity to learn how to resist that temptation by exercising self-control so that we can resist it. It's never too late to learn self-control to be better so that we won't be tempted by anything while we're in the casino. We will only focus on playing enough gambling and stop gambling once we feel enough and will not return to gambling too often. So having self-control is very important because it can protect us from problems that can arise while we gamble.

If they realize that the chances of winning are smaller than losing, they should not be eager to chase wins and only gamble enough to avoid losing. After all, if they could get lucky, they would definitely win and if they gambled casually, they would get the win by accident. It will be a surprise moment for them because they have managed to win a gambling game where they didn't think about winning. If they just spend their money chasing victory, it won't be worth it because they will lose all their money before they can win the gambling game. And yes, I would also suggest investing in other things instead of just wasting money on gambling because it is more worth doing because then they can make a profit in the future.

Again and again the interpretation that can be taken from some examples seems to be that someone wants to win in gambling, of course anyone who wants to win in gambling is ridiculous, so right, it will waste your time and money. That is a true opinion even though luck exists in this life, but if you break down the logic about gambling then if you are looking for financial gain, it is a sign of being misplaced.

If you are looking for pleasure, of course it is not wrong, because most of the people who are responsible for gambling admit that they are just looking for fun, no matter what gambling is done, whether it is slot machines, betting on sports and others, it is normal for someone to waste time and money to get pleasure.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

Free spins are still considered as free money so still a good thing you have this but getting dependent on this hoping to have a large amount of value is just a small chance of winning, seems like you are not much active gambler making a deposit to the casino because at that rate you just keeping use the free spins instead of using your own money so you can now unlock making withdrawal. Base on my experience every time I played slot games I just hit a jackpot but not too much large at least couple of thousand dollars is enough for me to call for a day and not being greedy but of course not as always this happen so I rarely play slot games instead I do sports and table top games.

It seems that every gambler realizes that the chances of winning are smaller than losing because of course they have experienced more losses than wins, but they are tempted by the opportunities that exist and feel pleasure in every spin so that it is difficult to think well and control themselves.
In sports betting, perhaps all gamblers can bet casually because they tend to bet on sports they like and on certain players or teams, but when it comes to games especially slots, the situation will be very different.
Slot games provide adrenaline as well as quite satisfying fun, even each round will take place more quickly and each round will consume certain amount of money placed on the bet so it will be more wasteful.
And what worse, slot games are games that have an addictive effect, especially if you fail to get big multiplier or scatter, then curiosity is higher and playing can take longer.
The average gambler who likes playing slots definitely experiences lot of losses but they also win, but the winnings are only small return on what they have lost.
And my advice if you want to play slots is that you really need to be able to determine the right time to stop and maintain financial limits because this game can really cost you any amount of money.
I love playing slots but I have my own limits to stay safe and not go too far in experiencing losses.

If the initial goal is to make money, then it is appropriate to suggest investing because investing, apart from making money, can also be form of saving for the future.
But good investment is long term and in the long term we can get very large profits.
It just that we have to be smart in choosing investment assets and have to be really strong in saving them because there will definitely be ups and downs in value and we can't be afraid or fooled if they go down and then sell them because for every decrease in value there will definitely be bigger increase.

Well, it cannot be denied that when the free spins fall, it is a blessing for the player, Personally, whenever there are free spins when I am playing slots, it makes my day a lot because it is more game for me, it translates into more fun and fun. It is more of a chance to win, in free spins a winning combination can also come out , that is something Obvious , natural in any Game, which represents, but we as good players must also see that things are still about doing things better There are certain Parameters of intelligence to know how we should play in certain situations and although there is no perfect Strategy for a slot game, there is so that others do not lose all the money, there is a lot of advice that they give us in certain situations. articles to be able to generate better gameplay in the slots, but we have to be very patient and very intuitive in this , because if there is something that the slots have, it is that when we play with little money they can represent us winning a lot and that is something that we must leverage.

Of course, the RTP of a slot we must know that it is better to get the highest, because we must always be intelligent in that Sense, know and see how we can do it Better in Order to have more opportunities to play and win, having fun, and what a better mix is to play and win, right? It is what everyone is looking for and few are lucky enough to get it, in slots we have to be very intelligent because when we play slots they usually make us put our emotions in suspense and the money goes very quickly and things happen when we try to do them well We need to be very focused on not letting all our money lose, because sometimes it is advisable to play with the Minimum bet and when we feel that we can win , increase it , I think that's what it's About , the more Experience you have the Better to be able to win

No one can ever win anything big from free spins or bonus spins because of the sites algorithm setting a small amount of rewards so that it is always possible to win something small from free spins.  And this gives gamblers a chance to enjoy that spin and keep depositing again and playing for a long time. This is basically their marketing policy so nothing to get too excited about it. And always keeping yourself in check, gambling should not be taken seriously

So the free spins are actually different compared to normal paid spins?

Then it's a bit misleading to name them free spins, maybe they should be called bonus games or something like that.

Because if you say "free X", I would expect to get the actual X without having to pay for it, not a lite version of X for free.

Hoping to get a big win from the free spins given in the slot game, I think it's very rare to get a big win, and sometimes it will be very difficult for us to get free spins, we need a lot of capital to be able to get the free spins and that doesn't necessarily mean the payout. You get a big win and the jackpot is the same, but you will really feel the victory if you get the jackpot compared to the prize you get from the free win.

Gamblers should realize that their chances of winning are no greater than their chances of losing. They may experience losses more often than wins because gambling will not always give them a win. If they could realize that fact, they would not try hard to win but would only gamble just for the fun of it. They can also think clearly that if they gamble casually, they will not experience any problems and can use gambling as a way to get pleasure. In sports betting, they must have good analytical skills so that they can find a team that can win. And if it is a slot game, they cannot hope to win because slot games require luck. But all gambling games give people a sensation of pleasure that can make them lose control and forget to stop gambling. They just want to spend their time gambling without wanting to do other things that have become routine so it makes everything messy and they can't take care of themselves well because they are already immersed in gambling.

They should stay away from the thought of making money from gambling because it will not be easy and the chances may be very small. Instead of losing more money to make money from gambling, they should use gambling as it is so that they don't lose their money and maybe it can give them the opportunity to make a win because luck comes. They should choose to invest rather than gamble, where if they choose the right investment, they can make big profits in the future.

After all, if they could get lucky, they would definitely win and if they gambled casually, they would get the win by accident. It will be a surprise moment for them because they have managed to win a gambling game where they didn't think about winning. If they just spend their money chasing victory, it won't be worth it because they will lose all their money before they can win the gambling game. And yes, I would also suggest investing in other things instead of just wasting money on gambling because it is more worth doing because then they can make a profit in the future.

Yes you are right, it is never too late to do something that will produce something good especially for ourselves. Risks and problems everywhere must exist, also in casinos and gambling this is certainly there, even the risks that exist in gambling are large and not playing with dangerous bad effects. but that can all be prevented by our own behavior where our goals and motives for gambling are like what, if we misinterpret gambling or respond to gambling maybe it can bring big problems and risks, but if we respond well and use common sense then it will not be a problem.

I think everyone realizes that, where they know the chances of winning in gambling are not as big as the chances of losing, which is my question, if they already know that, why do they still gamble with the assumption and expect the victory that gambling will provide? do they have a strong reason for gambling? I myself do not know what the motive of someone who continues to gamble even though they always lose in gambling. Nor are there only one or two people who do this, there are probably many, because in my neighborhood too, they always tell stories of almost getting a win with pride, but sometimes they also say "how long can we continue like this" and soon they return to telling the gambling they just did. is this what the world is called spinning? I don't think so.

Slot games are actually entertaining and thrilling but for me it would really just that only last or would really be just good on just few rolls and im not that a gambler whose really that
playing long with slots because i do get easily bored and this is why when i do play some casino games then it would be neither on slots,roulettes or dice games etc... On the time that
i do get bored then this is the time i would really be considering on making some sports bet on which i do really make those  changes of games whenever on what my mood is.
There are times on which i dont like to play casino games on entire day and would be focusing on playing or betting on sports and there are days which i do play only casino games
or something interchangeable.
Because it is entertaining and thrilling, it is what makes many people love slot games and spend more money over time. They not only enjoy playing slots but they also want to win from playing slots so they spend more money trying to win. But unfortunately, because this slot game is based on luck, not many of them can win, let alone get big wins. But that doesn't stop them from trying another day because they still believe that they still have a chance to win. Sometimes, I also bet on sports betting if I feel like I can't win from slot games and just want to find new experiences in other gambling games. But slot games can take more time and money because there are factors that entertain us in playing slots.

Even if it's not slot games, the other games are still based on luck; the winner is the truth, except maybe for poker, which requires skills and the right thinking strategy to defeat the opponents.

That's why I don't believe that slot games are a waste of time. How can we say that it is a waste of time when it provides a lot of entertainment and ease of mind to those who gamble, especially if they are going through a big problem in their lives and gambling helps them to relieve it?

That's why, even though we are still experiencing the same things as before, we can change them by doing something so that we can break the existing circle and start something different from before. These risks and problems will definitely exist even in gambling, so it depends on how we can overcome the risks so that they don't become bigger than before. Only we can do it and for this reason, awareness is needed to realize that we have started to get a bit far in gambling so that we can try to reduce gambling activities so that the risk of losing money will not become greater. And by reducing gambling activities, we will also not waste time and money playing slots because we already realize that winning will never be easy.

They already know it but still take the risk of continuing to gamble even with more money. They still feel that they can win the gambling game and with more money, they are increasingly convinced that they are closer to winning even though it will not be as they imagined. The reason they gamble is to win and gamble with a lot of money. They can gamble a little longer than usual in the hope that they can win the gambling game. People will definitely have their motives for gambling but the main thing is that they want to get big wins from gambling but they are also aware that it is difficult to achieve. If they could stop gambling for a while and realize that they no longer need to gamble with a lot of money, they would feel luckier because they could save their money from the risk of losing money from gambling.

If someone says that slot games are a waste of time, they should immediately leave gambling and never gamble again. Gambling is not for them and they are better off looking for other activities that will not waste their time or money. But those who can enjoy slot games or other gambling games will not say things like that because they think that they get pleasure from playing gambling.

Some people feel that by gambling, they can reduce the level of stress they get from their routine. That's what makes them still gamble but within their limits. At the same time, other people who chase winning will not think like that because they want to make money from gambling and it will never be easy.

Hoping to get a big win from the free spins given in the slot game, I think it's very rare to get a big win, and sometimes it will be very difficult for us to get free spins, we need a lot of capital to be able to get the free spins and that doesn't necessarily mean the payout. You get a big win and the jackpot is the same, but you will really feel the victory if you get the jackpot compared to the prize you get from the free win.

Yeah, I think the "free" spins are basically priced in on the actual odds that casinos give you.

So, instead of paying you more, they offer these free spins, so that you are more encouraged to keep playing.

Why a waste of time? I mean, one could argue that anything that is not working, making cash and learning is a waste of time, but I remember that some rock star said "I have spent half of my money on women, drink and drugs, the rest I wasted". Jokes apart, the game is to have fun and should not serve any other particular purpose so that is not a waste if it works for you.

That's why we have to really manage our finances in the sense of managing the income we get so that it doesn't interfere with our financial position. We also definitely have daily needs and must also prepare reserve funds for sudden needs that we cannot predict. If we can manage and adjust the income we get, including providing a certain amount of money to allocate funds for gambling, we will not interfere with other needs. And it can also reduce the risks we will accept in gambling so that we can also reduce the number of losses we might receive.

We must be able to reduce our ambitions, especially in gambling games so that we don't get sucked too deep into gambling which can cause us to lose a lot of money and also experience gambling addiction in the future. We also don't need to be too ambitious when playing gambling, especially ambitious to win, because that is difficult to obtain. After all, we only use gambling to get pleasure and have no other purpose so even if we don't gamble, it's actually not a serious problem, especially since we can get pleasure from other things. We have to manage our finances and don't use too much money when gambling. That is a way to avoid losing a lot, which could result in us losing a lot of money too.

from my experience almost all of my big wins come from free spins and what I know is that free spins give you the opportunity to get big win or jackpot but it all still depends on how big your luck is and to do free spins you dont need big budget depending on you also dont need to buy a spin bonus to do this because usually in slot games every once in a while a few spins will give you a free spin but usually it not give you a big win.

what is certain is that this slot game has the opportunity to get jackpot and you can get it when you enter the free spin round, but it is very risky because you spend money quickly and if you feel unlucky, would be better to just avoid it rather than losing a lot of money.

If big wins come only from free spins then everybody would be trying their luck through free spins and do not gamble at all. Also, not all gambling sites will offer free spins. And you do not need to spend any money in order to try out free spins.

I think there is no specific game where you can win big. If can be anything from the basic gambling games like dice to the games like slots etc. Even with the bet, you will get odds like 4x or 5x sometimes, meaning your money will be 5x if you bet on that team, but usually the higher the odds, the less likely the chance of a win but upsets do happen in sports.

The unpredictable nature of it all gives us an adrenaline boost. The rush and exhilaration of a possible win are more than the money. But when does this exhilaration turn into chaos? That is the moment when we forget to be moderate. Anything in excess is problematic, as we all know. It's all about finding balance. Nonetheless, isn't it interesting how quickly we become hooked, even when it's misdirected toward gambling? Many times, they overlook the stable aspects of their lives, such as their families, careers, and future prospects, in favor of chasing the illusion of winning.

Choosing wisely is not easy, is it? Their choices affect not only themselves but also those they love, even though they have the freedom to make them. Is it not the case that they evaluate their conduct in light of their obligations? Changing one's priorities in life involves more than just cutting back on an activity. It could be time to adopt a new outlook and focus on creating enduring legacies rather than chasing after short-lived successes. That's quite the risk, isn't it?

Gamblers should realize that their chances of winning are no greater than their chances of losing. They may experience losses more often than wins because gambling will not always give them a win. If they could realize that fact, they would not try hard to win but would only gamble just for the fun of it. They can also think clearly that if they gamble casually, they will not experience any problems and can use gambling as a way to get pleasure. In sports betting, they must have good analytical skills so that they can find a team that can win. And if it is a slot game, they cannot hope to win because slot games require luck. But all gambling games give people a sensation of pleasure that can make them lose control and forget to stop gambling. They just want to spend their time gambling without wanting to do other things that have become routine so it makes everything messy and they can't take care of themselves well because they are already immersed in gambling.

They should stay away from the thought of making money from gambling because it will not be easy and the chances may be very small. Instead of losing more money to make money from gambling, they should use gambling as it is so that they don't lose their money and maybe it can give them the opportunity to make a win because luck comes. They should choose to invest rather than gamble, where if they choose the right investment, they can make big profits in the future.
I say once again that the truth is that gamblers are aware that the chance of losing is greater than winning, but they don't care about it because their ambition exceeds their excessive expectations of winning.
What more, they feel it, an adrenaline rush that truly satisfies pleasure that might truly be considered pleasure like no other.
What you have to realize is not that the chance of losing is greater than winning but realizing and changing your ambitions and goals in gambling to win because this will have more influence and can change gambler mindset.
Moreover, what they are playing is slot which clearly works randomly, but this is what always makes gamblers curious and interested in slot games where they will be proud and happy if they win.
Slots are the only game that has a very large fan base, even bigger than other types of games, and slot games are also the only games that can spend large amounts of money in a short time.

Yes, you are right that every gambler must stay away from or eliminate the thought of being able to make gambling a place that can make money because they come to spend money, not look for money that can be obtained for sure.
It better to just gamble as you should and never go too far in having the wrong approach.
As gambler, you must be able to differentiate between places that can make money and places that are only used for fun.

Whatever gambling is and not just slots but including other types, I think it will only be a waste of money when you come with the wrong goal, such as maybe making a profit, for people who don't know and don't understand what gambling actually is and what gambling is for. I think they are the ones who will waste money by always trying to play more for the sake of winning big, even though on the other hand gambling is not for that.

This activity is nothing more than something that can only give you pleasure or other entertainment and does not include money in the category that the casino allows, but maybe the casino provides a small chance of winning which we should call a prize and not a win because you are great or whatever. So you won't waste too much money if you come just to have fun because on the other hand I'm sure the amount you budgeted is not large, and it will keep you fine and just think of the small money you have spent as costs for Paying for the pleasure you get is healthier and is a more recommended mindset if you really want to gamble but don't want to experience many bad impacts.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
My personal experience is also like that, and more often when turnover requirements are almost met, successive losses come, so I don't like free spins with high turnover requirements. I prefer to play for real money so whatever winnings can be withdrawn easily.

First, the gambling industry relies on the "gambler's fallacy" - the idea that past occurrences randomly affect future outcomes. The tricky part is that casinos skillfully construct slot games to exploit this. It's not just luck but complex psychological traps. Realistically, the house always wins; its their business strategy. Given this, gamblers should be cautious with slots.

Limiting gambling is essential! The industry is regulated to prevent exploitation, but personal responsibility matters. We must raise awareness. Why are cigarette packs required to have warnings but not slot machines? Gamblers should know that gambling is entertainment, not a business. Walking on thin ice requires caution to avoid falling. Dont fool yourself; the house always wins. We must speak out against promoting gambling as a way to wealth; most gamblers fail.

 ;D ;D I mean that does not happen only in betfury it happen to coins game too and pretty much in other gambling platform it is simply because the site doesn't want cheater that register to win and cashout so they give a choice to wager rather than KYC.

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/12/11/EGZEP.png (https://www.talkimg.com/image/EGZEP)

I win in Coins game from 100 Spin 36$ and need to wager x20 from the winning here is the rule, crazy right but that is the system

Example:
1. You have won with free spins 100$. To get them, the amount of bets in slots for real money must be $2000 ($100*20).
2. You won from free spins 50$. To get them, the amount of bets in slots for real money must be 1000$ (50$*20).

You're right, reducing gambling activities can reduce the risk of losing money used for gambling. we should be able to limit our gambling activities because if we gamble excessively, of course it will harm us, especially financially, and also many other things will also be harmed if we gamble excessively.  reducing the risk of gambling is good and there are also many ways, the rest is up to us whether we want a good change or continue to gamble excessively.

If they are like that, you can say they have ambition, right? but the ambition they have is in the wrong thing, where they have ambition in things that make them lose their greatness, because with the defeat that is always obtained and also with the victory that is difficult to get. it makes them lose a lot of money,  and I think they have to change their habits so that they don't always harm them, they should be able to limit their gambling activities. but indeed they have their own rights. but don't they think about other more important things? like family, or their own future.
That's why we have to really manage our finances in the sense of managing the income we get so that it doesn't interfere with our financial position. We also definitely have daily needs and must also prepare reserve funds for sudden needs that we cannot predict. If we can manage and adjust the income we get, including providing a certain amount of money to allocate funds for gambling, we will not interfere with other needs. And it can also reduce the risks we will accept in gambling so that we can also reduce the number of losses we might receive.

We must be able to reduce our ambitions, especially in gambling games so that we don't get sucked too deep into gambling which can cause us to lose a lot of money and also experience gambling addiction in the future. We also don't need to be too ambitious when playing gambling, especially ambitious to win, because that is difficult to obtain. After all, we only use gambling to get pleasure and have no other purpose so even if we don't gamble, it's actually not a serious problem, especially since we can get pleasure from other things. We have to manage our finances and don't use too much money when gambling. That is a way to avoid losing a lot, which could result in us losing a lot of money too.

yep you're right, we have to be able to manage the money we make every month, because the possibility of our daily basic needs is not small so of course the basic needs must be prioritized over gambling, don't make gambling the most important thing in life it's better to make gambling a number one thing. it's also better that the money earned is saved for sudden needs like you said. because maybe someday we will experience an urgent situation that cannot be predicted that requires funds to overcome it.

If they really want to make a profit from gambling, maybe they can get it but it won't be as often as getting defeated and also the victory may not be much, so if you look back the victory that can be obtained is not equivalent to the defeat that has been obtained. it is also not recommended to gamble often because it will only waste time. so it is better to use gambling as it should not overdo it.

You're right, reducing gambling activities can reduce the risk of losing money used for gambling. we should be able to limit our gambling activities because if we gamble excessively, of course it will harm us, especially financially, and also many other things will also be harmed if we gamble excessively.  reducing the risk of gambling is good and there are also many ways, the rest is up to us whether we want a good change or continue to gamble excessively.

The unpredictable nature of it all gives us an adrenaline boost. The rush and exhilaration of a possible win are more than the money. But when does this exhilaration turn into chaos? That is the moment when we forget to be moderate. Anything in excess is problematic, as we all know. It's all about finding balance. Nonetheless, isn't it interesting how quickly we become hooked, even when it's misdirected toward gambling? Many times, they overlook the stable aspects of their lives, such as their families, careers, and future prospects, in favor of chasing the illusion of winning.

Choosing wisely is not easy, is it? Their choices affect not only themselves but also those they love, even though they have the freedom to make them. Is it not the case that they evaluate their conduct in light of their obligations? Changing one's priorities in life involves more than just cutting back on an activity. It could be time to adopt a new outlook and focus on creating enduring legacies rather than chasing after short-lived successes. That's quite the risk, isn't it?

Doing something excessively is not good, because it is possible that something undesirable will happen. the same as gambling, if someone gambles excessively it is likely that they will lose a lot of money instead of getting a lot of money, because gambling will only drain their finances, not to mention other things they will lose, such as health and time. there are many other things that will be lost if they only think about gambling, such as destroying family or partner relationships, changing attitudes and the future.
So it's better to gamble in moderation, don't gamble excessively, because this is not a good thing.

choosing something wisely is not easy, but if someone has a good mindset I think it is easy for them to do things with wise choices. Choosing wisely is not easy but in my opinion that only applies to people who don't have a good mindset , so they don't think about the future, only think about the current situation that they have to face without thinking about the risks that will come later. chasing short-term success is indeed a big risk and I'm not saying they should chase short-term success too. So I think they should reduce their gambling activities, don't gamble excessively because it can harm them in many ways, especially financially.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
My personal experience is also like that, and more often when turnover requirements are almost met, successive losses come, so I don't like free spins with high turnover requirements. I prefer to play for real money so whatever winnings can be withdrawn easily.
In fact not all sports are the same so how many of these sites for slot games are actually safe legitimate and have good bonus options. If you have had a bad experience it is better to analyze the sites and move on. Online slot casino games can come in many different shapes and sizes But most options don't work the same way. Will represent a certain number of symbols in a certain layout after placing a bet random symbols will appear on the screen and these can pay out based on their rarity but they can be quite rewarding.

I dont have much experience with slots, as I dont play them because chances to win are lower than in other games, but bets have minimum amounts, but I would not call them a waste of time. If they were really waste of time, then I dont understand why the amount of installed slots dominate in offline and online casinos. High number of machines/games means high demand. If people were constantly loosing, no one would play slots, but the situation is opposite. Quite a dilemma, isnt it?

Why a waste of time? I mean, one could argue that anything that is not working, making cash and learning is a waste of time, but I remember that some rock star said "I have spent half of my money on women, drink and drugs, the rest I wasted". Jokes apart, the game is to have fun and should not serve any other particular purpose so that is not a waste if it works for you.
What you say is true. And we should be able to just have fun with it. I can still get a little enjoyment out of slots. But I personally prefer blackjack or sports betting because for me it is more exciting and fun. I also like the PvP game model as promoted by Rollbit. There is a special pleasure when we try to win with the money we bet. But I emphasize once again that it's just for fun, nothing more.

Yes, I agree with you.

It's a completely personal thing. For some people it is simply fun and they have no issues paying for it.

But, there are some people that stay playing their whole day, and they put every cent they have in there, and they don't even enjoy it.

There's a clear difference.


Title: Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time)
Post by: ethereumhunter on December 12, 2023, 04:00:58 AM
First, the gambling industry relies on the "gambler's fallacy" - the idea that past occurrences randomly affect future outcomes. The tricky part is that casinos skillfully construct slot games to exploit this. It's not just luck but complex psychological traps. Realistically, the house always wins; its their business strategy. Given this, gamblers should be cautious with slots.

Limiting gambling is essential! The industry is regulated to prevent exploitation, but personal responsibility matters. We must raise awareness. Why are cigarette packs required to have warnings but not slot machines? Gamblers should know that gambling is entertainment, not a business. Walking on thin ice requires caution to avoid falling. Dont fool yourself; the house always wins. We must speak out against promoting gambling as a way to wealth; most gamblers fail.
This psychological trap works for many gamblers because many gamblers keep trying to chase victory even though they know that it is difficult. Gamblers are triggered by several other gamblers who managed to win from slot games so they continue to think that they too can win one day. The gamblers who still lose try to play slots in the hope that their luck will come on one of the days they are playing. For this reason, as you said, gamblers must be careful with slots.

We agree that limiting gambling is necessary so that we don't lose self-control while gambling, especially since slot games can really tempt us to continue gambling without stopping. Gamblers have seen a warning to be careful when gambling, but it only appears when they first register and the warning does not always appear when they play. They think that the warning disturbs their focus and makes them uncomfortable in gambling so they feel that it is better for the warning not to appear. This is different from cigarette packs, where the writing appears on the cigarette pack so that when we take the cigarette, we definitely see the warning. But we still don't want to pay attention to it because we still want to smoke. However, we can only limit our gambling activities if we do not want to develop a gambling addiction because that is the only thing we can do if we want to enjoy gambling as entertainment.

Doing something excessively is not good, because it is possible that something undesirable will happen. the same as gambling, if someone gambles excessively it is likely that they will lose a lot of money instead of getting a lot of money, because gambling will only drain their finances, not to mention other things they will lose, such as health and time. there are many other things that will be lost if they only think about gambling, such as destroying family or partner relationships, changing attitudes and the future.

So I think they should reduce their gambling activities, don't gamble excessively because it can harm them in many ways, especially financially.
That's the point if we can allocate a certain amount of money for gambling and other basic needs so that they don't interfere with each other's need for money. Most gamblers will probably become excessive gamblers when they experience more frequent losses and that means they really have to reduce their gambling activities. Otherwise, they will become more seriously addicted to gambling even though they actually already have a gambling addiction and they don't realize it. We cannot make gambling an important thing in life because we do not live to gamble but we have to focus ourselves to survive. We should use the money for more important needs and also save it so we can use it in the future.

Gamblers can win from gambling but they cannot expect to win too often. They must be aware that gambling is not a place to make money and that they should make money from other, more promising places. If they can limit their gambling activities, they can enjoy gambling properly so they can also limit the amount they lose. That's the most important thing in gambling. Winning it will be a bonus for them.

One misconception that is very common is that people think of something as productive only if it makes you money or it is a step towards that goal, however humans are not really robots that only know how to work, entertaining yourself is also important as this allows you to be fresh when you have to work or simply as a way to improve your mood, and if someone finds in responsible gambling a way to do that then that is OK in my book.

If big wins come only from free spins then everybody would be trying their luck through free spins and do not gamble at all. Also, not all gambling sites will offer free spins. And you do not need to spend any money in order to try out free spins.
I am sorry mate, it seems we misunderstood this discussion. what I meant was not free spin bonuses such as deposit bonuses, etc., but the purchase of spin features.
I admit that if we talk about free spins from bonuses given by casinos, the chance of winning big is very small and the risk of getting it is very big because you have to meet the conditions that have been determined as discussed previously, 5x or 30x the deposit amount and the success rate for getting it may be very there is little chance of achieving these requirements and it is not equivalent to the bonus we will get. so many gamblers ignore free spin bonuses with conditions that are too complicated, even I myself often ignore these bonuses.

but if we talk about free spin bonuses in slot games, the opportunity to get JP is only through buyers of the spin feature because in this feature we will get the chance to maxwin even though it depends on luck, but only through buyers of the free spin feature can we get a big multiplier.
maybe someone is lucky enough to get maxwin using manual spin without purchasing a free spin bonus, but it is very rare to get it because we won't be able to get a big multiplier, while the wild multiplier will come out if we enter the free spin round.

Gambling is for entertainment and this is something that people should really be that treating up on this way on which not all people would really be ending up with this kind of mindset on which majority of gamblers would really be that having those kind of aims that they would really be able to make money with gambling in the most easiest way. Yes, we can really make engagement with slot games on which we could really be able
make winnings but if we are really just that lucky enough but we cant really be able to deny that slot games and dealing up with games which does have house edge will really be making us losers in the end of the line
on which you should really be that wary when it comes to that imposed risks so that you wont really be that expecting or anticipating something.

Gambling games wont be a waste of time and money if you are really just that playing for fun but on the time that you are already that expecting something like making some income
or money with it then this is where things turns out to be wrong. You would really be making yourself that desperate on the things that you would really be doing specially
when dealing with gambling.

Maybe they think that if they are consistent on gambling they will be rewarded soon that's why they continue to gamble all day its because they are trying to hit a big gains and settle up for a day if they hit that but they didn't realize that they are doing stressful gambling all day that's why they always feel bad once they end their game time.

If they just enjoy the game then set some limitation on anything what they have done especially if they are experimenting something then provably they can say that everything in gambling is really worth it but majority choose to be a evil and decide to be a hardcore gambler.

Maybe two types of behavior came and one is they regret then blame all of this on casino for thinking they had been wreck or simply keep silent and think about what they have done, after that planning their possible revenge or better gameplay on the game they like to play.

They should realize that excessive gambling is a waste of time and a waste of money, not to mention the many other things that are also harmed. with excessive gambling it makes them nervous because of the winnings that do not come, and also maybe they don't enjoy the flow of the gambling journey they are doing. However, they should not spend a lot of money on gambling, especially if they do not have enough fixed income. where the monthly income earned is only enough for daily needs. so in my opinion, they should not force themselves to gamble, if they really want to get a lot of money, the solution is to work hard, not by gambling because they are hypnotized by the phrase gambling can double money.

well, most people who gamble they forget that they have gone too deep in gambling which makes them lose a lot of money. it is difficult to avoid gambling addiction, but if they have good consistency I think they can reduce their gambling activities because I can also do it with good consistency.

Imagine that we see someone, lets call him John, carefully managing his money. He has a separate "fun fund" for gambling from his "essentials." He walks into the casino feeling sure of himself and in charge. But heres where things get challenging: John loses, and the urge to "win it back" grows stronger. He takes money out of the "fun fund" for next week. Stop right there! He's taking a step that could be dangerous.

This happens all the time, which is scary. Its not enough to just set limits; you have to do the impossible and stick to them. This is especially true when it comes to spots. John keeps losing money even though he knows that the next pull could be the prize. It keeps going and going. What is the key? Know when to take a step back. These days, its not just gambling; people are risking their money and ability to control themselves.

He walks into the casino feeling sure of himself and in charge. But heres where things get challenging: John loses, and the urge to "win it back" grows stronger. He takes money out of the "fun fund" for next week. Stop right there! He's taking a step that could be dangerous.

This happens all the time, which is scary. Its not enough to just set limits; you have to do the impossible and stick to them. This is especially true when it comes to spots. John keeps losing money even though he knows that the next pull could be the prize. It keeps going and going. What is the key? Know when to take a step back. These days, its not just gambling; people are risking their money and ability to control themselves.
This is a scenario that presents itself very often and that many people fail to face properly, after all when it comes to something people want to achieve we often say that they should try over and over again and never give up until they get what they want, however when we are talking about gambling that kind of advice will bring a lot of damage to a person, as the best thing to do when whatever funds we destined to gamble run out is to stop completely, and yet there are many persons out there that keep gambling hoping to recover what they have lost, and that is when they get trapped.

Many people have experienced incidents like this where when someone experiences a loss from gambling and there is an urge to recover their losses by depositing more money. This has been experienced by many gamblers where it would never be recommended because deciding to continue gambling will not guarantee they can win. They can experience more losses and if they don't realize it soon, they will only repeat it again and in the end, they will become addicted to gambling.

This must be stopped immediately so that they can avoid more losses and it is true that a gambler must have limits in gambling so that he does not lose a lot of money and can also prevent himself from becoming addicted to gambling. He doesn't need to pursue victory or recover from his losses because that is difficult. That is why a gambler must really be able to control himself when gambling and learn to be disciplined in using his money to gamble. That's what makes them responsible people when playing gambling.

If it's like that, it's good and makes sense too, someone has to manage their finances so that they don't gamble using money that is intended for their daily basic needs. they will continue to deposit their money in gambling especially if they don't have good self-control where the defeats they always get will make them curious to continue gambling without thinking about the losses they have felt. let's say they are addicted, even though they are aware of themselves who are addicted to gambling but in my opinion they will not admit that they are addicted, because people who are addicted to gambling tend to be embarrassed to admit that people know they are addicted to gambling.

yes you are right, they can win or get benefits, but the benefits they get are not much nor will they get it often because admit it the chances of winning are thinner than the chances of losing. it is also not good to make gambling a source of income, as you said to make money they have to look elsewhere not in gambling because I also do not recommend it like this.
Yes, a person must manage his finances well so that when he gambles, he only gambles with the money he has prepared. He is also not allowed to use money intended for basic daily needs and that means they are not allowed to gamble beyond their limits. If they lose control once when playing gambling, there is a possibility that they will repeat it another day and it will continue over and over again. And if they repeat it often, there is a possibility that they will become addicted to gambling, where they will no longer have self-control in gambling so they will only lose even more money. They must remember their limits and hone their self-control so as not to gamble excessively and if they are used to doing so, they can enjoy gambling games.

And when they like playing slots, they have to be even more careful because when playing slots, someone must really be able to limit the amount of money. After all, people often forget the limits. And that's what happens to many people. They return to playing slots but after depositing more money. That means they have exceeded their limits, and when they lose, the number of losses increases. In the end, they couldn't reduce the number of losses but instead increased the number of losses.
Imagine that we see someone, lets call him John, carefully managing his money. He has a separate "fun fund" for gambling from his "essentials." He walks into the casino feeling sure of himself and in charge. But heres where things get challenging: John loses, and the urge to "win it back" grows stronger. He takes money out of the "fun fund" for next week. Stop right there! He's taking a step that could be dangerous.

John keeps losing money even though he knows that the next pull could be the prize. It keeps going and going. What is the key? Know when to take a step back. These days, its not just gambling; people are risking their money and ability to control themselves.

This is indeed what many gamblers do because they are confident that they will win and can replace the losses they have received,  they are willing to use their spare money to chase wins that are not certain. a loss that makes them gamble again because they want to get a win that can cover the losses they have received. and this is of course wrong and dangerous as you said, because this can make them continue playing and can waste a lot of their money in just an instant. They must be able to limit their gambling to avoid losing large amounts of money. So as much as possible, we should gamble sensibly, don't do it excessively because if we do it excessively it will have a dangerous and detrimental impact on ourselves. Using spare money is the wrong step, because it could be a problem for them in the future, don't be too confident in the hopes you have, those big hopes can kill us later.


victory is definitely there but it also depends on our own luck, it is difficult to apply limits and carry them out because of the different personalities of people being one reason. especially in the determination to limit gambling this is easy to say but difficult to do because most of them do not care about this and do not think about the risks that will occur, many of them have been deceived by gambling and made them lose a lot of money, they should be able to take action backwards as you said it, so that they avoid the big risk then they must be able to refrain from gambling even though the temptation of gambling is strong but if they have a strong mentality maybe they can withstand it.

It always doesn't end well when it comes to slots if one gambler continues to try and chase his losses.
In Original games though, it's different. There are times when the RTP hits like it's never-ending so the results are better if you stay in the game and keep on betting. I've seen it quite a lot of times but greed always wins and I want to win more than what it gave me. That's the other problem with original games, after a long winning streak next to it is a losing streak and anywhere you go you will feel it, either Keno, Plinko, Dice, or any game in the originals, the gambling site will try to win back every profit we made.
So in my opinion, the key to success here is discipline, the right time to withdraw and never come back for some time and maybe it will be a different result the next time. But for those who are trying to increase their wagering amount for higher VIP status, originals might be the best place to do it because of that fact.
I guess that is why most bonuses of Stake.com require a $10k - 15k wagered amount in a week because of the RTP. It can be done because I made $100 wagered with just $1 although it took a lot of time.

I don't think it's experimenting but rather referring to reckless and stupid actions, basically there is no need to experiment because it's clear that the concept of gambling is only about luck and that means that it's almost impossible for anyone to get a lucky streak to get a win or recover and restore what has been lost there, your idea is quite good but I think the analogy is a little reversed in that the majority of gamblers cannot control themselves and always overreact, and only a few (minority) gamblers are able to restrain their overreaction or that means only a few of them still maintain their awareness not to overreact.

In fact more of the gamblers who apply excessive behavior to their involvement because they come with the wrong goals and mindset such as misunderstanding what probability means, they think that winning is certain and they will get a lot of money but what they don't realize is that the actual fact is that the risk is much greater because the percentage of winning is much smaller than losing, this is business for casinos and that is why in 10x trials for example we will probably only be able to get one/two wins or even nothing at all.

Maybe they think that if they are consistent on gambling they will be rewarded soon that's why they continue to gamble all day its because they are trying to hit a big gains and settle up for a day if they hit that but they didn't realize that they are doing stressful gambling all day that's why they always feel bad once they end their game time.

If they just enjoy the game then set some limitation on anything what they have done especially if they are experimenting something then provably they can say that everything in gambling is really worth it but majority choose to be a evil and decide to be a hardcore gambler.

Maybe two types of behavior came and one is they regret then blame all of this on casino for thinking they had been wreck or simply keep silent and think about what they have done, after that planning their possible revenge or better gameplay on the game they like to play.

Yeah, some gamblers stop being rational and they start following their instincts when playing...

Big mistake.

Casinos are designed to take all the money from a gambler, with all their lights, music, etc... Everything is fun and games while the credits are there, but when that goes to zero, then all the fun stops, lights go off, and music ceases to play. That's when the gambler realizes that they have spent all their money.

The key is to stop before this. Similar to not being obese, you need to stop eating before the full pack of chips (or whatever) is empty. If you always eat the whole thing until is empty you will end up obese. If you play all the time until you don't have more money, you will end up bankrupt. Same stuff.

From this we can conclude that awareness as well as thoughts and instincts from the heart also have an influence when we gamble, because these things are related to each other.

When someone has too much hope in gambling then they will be disappointed, maybe if the words "don't give up" are directed at people who run a business and their business fails or when they have problems this is a good solution but if "don't give up" it concerns gambling will be a disaster because if you don't give up and continue to chase defeat or chase victory we won't know when it will be successful and most people who experience this are increasingly losing direction and goals and increasingly experiencing unstoppable losses, gambling is a game that will slowly it will kill you if you are too ambitious to get a big win.

That why we have to be able to control ourselves so that we don't do things that are beyond our abilities. Use gambling for entertainment purposes so that when you winning or lose, you can accept it without having to chase losses or get more wins.

That's right, because they only see the jackpot prize which is likely to be quite large if they get it, they will try to get it even if in the wrong or excessive way. Indeed, everyone has their own views on the gambling they will play, and has their own reasons for determining what gambling is appropriate for them to do, for example, you who prefer sports betting over other gambling. Because the reason is that you place a bet on your own favorite club which you think is the best club and you will definitely support it even though the result is not necessarily a win, right? Yes, that is normal in sports betting. And besides that, you will get the pleasure of being able to take part in supporting your favorite favorite team.

The issue at hand I think is for people that go to casinos or do it online, and they simply continue gambling all day, losing all their money, without even enjoying themselves.
There's a big difference between those two types of behaviors.
That is very correct. People who are addicted to gambling and become wild they no longer find pleasure there. What they think about is about making as much money as possible. This is wrong thinking. You are right that there is a difference between people who enjoy it and people who are addicted to it. But if as OP said that people have to deposit that much to make a withdrawal then I can say it is cheating. Some sites that I know, such as Rollbit or Duelbits, never require you to make a deposit of a few dollars to make a withdrawal.

Yeah, there are clearly some casinos that are trying to get the maximum from their gamblers.

One thing that I think is too much is to add some hoops for you to get your own money. That's an extra hurdle than doesn't seem too fair.

There's already a lot of money to be made from casinos, so adding more problems to the gambler seems unnecessary to me.

Next time, don't expect something given for free. It's associated with a wagered requirement and most of the time, the requirements are really crazy that the chance to hit those is slim and low chances. It's better to play slots with direct money deposits and chase those free spins in-game instead. No need for a wager requirement or anything else.

OP generalized right away that slot games are a waste of time because of his experience which I can't be called not a good reason.

But good for you that you treat that as a waste of time and money as you will now avoid gambling on that.

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/ (https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/)

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
I mean, slot games from the get-go are made to take money off of your hands without you knowing. Plus unless you're a godlike player with insane luck strats that you can even beat the rigged system operating inside the slot machine, you're never going to achieve that 750 bucks wager requirement with a measly 16 dollars. You're always meant to deposit money and then lose it all, hence why they gave out this promotion anyway. Only problem I have with what you're talking about is that you're speaking from a place of looking at gambling as a way to turn a profit. Which is fine I guess to some degree but you gotta know at some point that it was the case in the past and it will always be the case for any type of game, be it slot or cards. If you're not finding any luck in slots and it's starting to wear out your patience, might as well look for other ways you can gamble, that way you're not forced to revenge gamble and then eventually lose your initial wager along with everything you own in the process as you slowly spiral down into gambling addiction. Which I must say isn't the best thing out there my friend. Try to gamble with the idea that you're going to lose this money anyway, might as well enjoy every single moment of it and not focus on actually earning since that's what causes you to think as if the slot machine owes you shit.

Just as chasing our loses is a bad idea, chasing out wins is a bad idea too, and the reason behind this is that the end results are very similar, so even if you begin to chase the big jackpot prize you could get with slots, there are many other people doing the same all over the world and there can only be one winner, so in the process of trying to get that win the losses which can be accumulated are too big, and in many cases those that are chasing those wins will not even obtain any entertainment out of it, since they are not really gambling for the fun of it and instead they just care about the profits they may get.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?
I mean, slot games from the get-go are made to take money off of your hands without you knowing. Plus unless you're a godlike player with insane luck strats that you can even beat the rigged system operating inside the slot machine, you're never going to achieve that 750 bucks wager requirement with a measly 16 dollars. You're always meant to deposit money and then lose it all, hence why they gave out this promotion anyway. Only problem I have with what you're talking about is that you're speaking from a place of looking at gambling as a way to turn a profit. Which is fine I guess to some degree but you gotta know at some point that it was the case in the past and it will always be the case for any type of game, be it slot or cards. If you're not finding any luck in slots and it's starting to wear out your patience, might as well look for other ways you can gamble, that way you're not forced to revenge gamble and then eventually lose your initial wager along with everything you own in the process as you slowly spiral down into gambling addiction. Which I must say isn't the best thing out there my friend. Try to gamble with the idea that you're going to lose this money anyway, might as well enjoy every single moment of it and not focus on actually earning since that's what causes you to think as if the slot machine owes you shit.
These machines are adult arcades where the joy is in the action, not the payment. They're a money suck, but that's gambling 101, right? Slots usually favor the house. However, I deviate from your path: It goes beyond avoiding the revenge gamble. Recognition of the beast as a profit-driven machine, not philanthropy. This godlike gamer with amazing luck strats is incorrect. Even the best players are subject to RNGs. No one beats the system - only plays the game.

Gamble for fun, not profit. You're right, but losing gracefully isn't enough - you must play smart. Slots are actual and metaphorical gambles. You must be willing to risk your money in this arena. Even with the odds against us, we play to win. Knowing when to leave is crucial. When you chase losses and dream of turning $16 into $750, you're playing their game. Gambling should be fun, not addictive. Enjoy the journey, but don't think the slot machine owes you anything. It doesn't. It never did.

And that is the scary part, every single gambler out there has experimented losses and thought about betting a little bit more to give themselves the chance to recover the money they have lost, however the majority of the gamblers can control themselves and avoid doing so, while a minority decides to follow those feelings and that is when they start a journey that is bound to not end well, as even if they do not become addicted they will lose way more money than what they wanted during that session.
It is best for those who have experienced losses from gambling to think about whether they have gambled excessively and should try to reduce the amount of their losses. If they can reduce the number of losses, it is lucky for them to use a small part of their money to play slots so that they don't feel that playing slots wastes their time and money.

What is important in playing slots is how we can control ourselves well. We can easily lose self-control when playing slots because we experience consecutive losses. It can make us want to continue playing slots to recover the money lost in slot games and there are even some gamblers who choose to deposit their money again to recover their losses. They may also need to set an alarm as a marker and reminder that their time has run out playing slots so they have to stop playing slots immediately. Otherwise, they will only experience more defeats.

Yeah, you're spot on.

At the end of the day most people will end up losing in gambling games, so it's really self control the only thing between them and bankruptcy.

If they keep playing, they will end up with no money at all...

We always talk about control ourselves but when we are playing do we really follow what we supposed to do? Sometimes we are been eat up by climax given gambling and we might forget about what we have just said earlier about controlling our self to gamble more.

I bet we can see a lot of gamblers actually experience this since sometimes they rise with the flow especially if they have something to chase especially if there's current promotion running in a casino.

We will really end up losing with that but what's more important there is we know how to used our personal funds since if we just separate the funds intended for basic need and for spending on leisure or other more for sure we will not get hurt if we lose.

Gamble only on the funds on which you can afford to lose then you wont really be having any problem at all. Usually people would really be ending up on a disaster if they do really just that let themselves really that forget on what are those earlier rules and conditions that they had set into themselves. Its true that you can really be able to make out those kind of rules but just like on what you had said, the longer the duration or engagement you are doing with gambling then you are really that highly chance or would really be likely on forgetting into those rules that we had set. This is why it doesnt matter on what games or betting you are dealing with because when it comes to self control then it would really be just the same whether you would really be doing things in moderation or would really be just simply be fucked up in the end of line.

Slot games are undeniably entertaining and something really that interesting but on the time that you would really be that making some few rolls then i do really get that easily get bored but im much aware about into those house edge and everything about it. It is really just that on the time that i cant really be able to hit up some good reels then i do imply skip out and would really be finding myself on playing other games like dice or even on sports betting.

Well, you have to see that the things behind each game there are always stories, there is a lot to talk about and say, I don't deny that the slots are made so that you can win even more money , yes, but you have to give some things that I attract them to the person , because with a minimum bet you can win a lot and Spend a lot too , but it may be that there is a lucky chance and you really walk away with a good amount and it multiplies, that is something that will Always be possible and can be have as a basis for anything, now, if we can think for a moment , we have seen everything in the stake.com thread ann that players will always manifest themselves with their players who become very millionaires, and those millionaires how much will there be? period? because they also lose a lot, that's what we don't know and they are things that we must at least imagine, because that's what this is about, having full knowledge about a game as Popular today as Slots.

I don't get Complicated with Slots , I Know that to win is Difficult, it's complicated and that you have to do things to be able to generate a Better Guarantee of things and that can be the determining factor of many things, because when I play slots I use them for the Purpose of de-stressing and maybe getting rid of a bad day or something, where I'm not looking for money, but for entertainment, I like the system, I like their music , I like the way the slot is , but Above all the most important thing for me I easily control it because I Always have very Little money to spare , and I don't run out of it , because I accept my loss and now , I come back another day or with other Attempts, all of that is what I basically do , but there are times when you Win and It's something Great , Because when you have a nice motorcycle, even with very little Money , then that kind of luck is why we should take advantage and get it , because it's the smartest Way to have and feel the money you've Earned.

All of us with lot of experience in gambling of course understand and really know how gambling games or casino games work, everything has programmed way of working and of course there are algorithms that gamblers cannot guess or solve.
This understanding can actually make us realize that it will be very dangerous if we play for too long using too much money because in the end we will always only lose.
Gambling games = luck, this is statement that is in accordance with reality and there is no gambling game that can be won without luck like slot games, except in games of skill perhaps luck is not that influential.
But here what we are discussing is slots and this is game that really only requires luck to win.

The only way to be able to play well is to be able to have time and financial limits when playing slot games and of course this is much better and can minimize the number of losses.

Many people, when they bet a little and see that they win a prize, mistakenly think that they are on a winning streak and continue betting, in the vast majority of cases, only to end up losing their winnings and more. The house edge makes long term loss inevitable.

Healthy gambling should be considered on an occasional basis, putting a limit on the amount of money and/or time spent betting, and if you win a big win after a while you'd better get out of there and enjoy the money. You have many more days to lose, so once you win don't screw it up by continuing to gamble.

How many times do we hit the snooze button when our alarm rings first thing in the morning? Gambling can be cherished the same way we do to sleep. Gamblers who have lost control over the fun they get through gambling won't be able to obey the alarm when it rings, provided they still have some funds left on their card. I prefer telling compulsive gamblers to stay clear from their cards when gambling. Maybe keep it somewhere they won't bother about looking for the money. Or better still have a disciplined family member hold the card, and instruct them never to release it until when the card is needed for something else other than gambling. Left for the gambler, he won't stay without depositing more money to his gambling account. Most gamblers may be able to control their urge to chase losses, but the few minorities who can't have been loaded with more funds. Gambling can't be played without money.

And most people who stop to gamble, do so, for money reasons or purposes. Hence, they tend to stop, because their money has been exhausted, and they have nothing left even in the bank. So, when a low roller who has lost his money in gambling, and only depends on money to control his urge for gambling. That means he's lost control, but money helps him enforce the control, by dismissing him from gambling for the time being. If the player is faced with other financial responsibilities and needs to buy food or pay bills, he'd have a regret on why he spent all his money on gambling. But once he gets another money, he'd forget he's not solved some underlying pending problems and rush to gamble some more. With the belief that he'd get some jackpot to cover all his bills. Gamblers in this category are mainly slot players as they enjoy the fast return on slot games. The results are instant and they'll have to hope on their next spin, to be a breakthrough.

It becomes very difficult to control yourself while gambling until you make a big loss. Because when someone wins at gambling, the desire to win more works in him and he continues to gamble for a longer period of time. Then it doesn't work in him that if he withdraws his winnings he can enjoy a lot of profit but if he loses playing again his original budget will be lost. He starts to regret when he loses the gamble and loses the original budget along with the profit. So of course only self-control can save a gambler from big losses

It depends though, if the "clarity" comes right after they win, then maybe they will be able to keep all that money, and actually exchange it for real money instead of tokens.

That is the main thing in the casino, if you are able to separate your feelings with what you are doing, then you might win something.

But, you need to be able to walk away without betting again. Few do this.
