It is indeed seen or experienced like that, basically a few "lucky" ones might be seen winning a lot of times.
But in reality, it is just random, and the probabilities are the same for everyone.
Of course, after the fact, some people will have been luckier than others, and you could comment on that, but before that happening, basically everyone is the same.
And once someone got labelled "lucky", it might stick forever and whenever they lose, people will just ignore it, and whenever they win they will reinforce the idea that they are lucky.
Everyone who played slots before has the same chance of winning. But after they play for a while, it will be seen who is lucky and who is unlucky. Those who are lucky are the ones who can win and some can win a lot of money. And for people who lose playing slots, they will become even more emotional and still want to get their win. They don't realize that they are unlucky and should stop gambling immediately. Another day, they will be lucky when playing slots again, which means they can win a lot of money from slot games. When people play for a long time,the longer they play the higher the chances they experience a losing session.This is more likely with almost all well known providers like Play n GO,Pragmatic Play and Hacksaw Gaming to name a few,they have this common characteristic that when you usually will hit the max win this in 99 out of 100 times will be early in the session,if not early then most likely you will experience a losing session. It is great to know the limits and also to know the chances that you have as despite the casino claiming each spin is independent the max win can fall on the reels once in 10 billion spins in total. |

Discipline is the key
Control is relevant
Awareness of situation is important
Greed should be minimized
If you do have these things then you wont really be making yourself getting wrecked with gambling since you are that aware of the situation.
You would really be messing up yourself with gambling if you do have that kind of intent or goals towards gambling.Its never been that considered to be a
major source of income because it is really just that good for entertainment.
You would most likely or definitely fail if you would really be that pursuing this kind of target. Odds is always against us on winning but if you are lucky
then there might be some chance but we know that it doesnt last forever in speaking of luck factor.
You`re talking how not to lose and a small chance to win. But there are examples how to win often. Of course nobody can get 100% win rate but if you get odd more than 2, it is enough to get stable profit. I can`t say about casino games, it mostly depends on luck. But poker and sport betting give a chance for gambler to analyze situation and make some changes in his strategy. And if the gambler use money management all the time - he can increase his income until it becomes big enough. While I agree with you keep in mind that to make big money with odd of 2 or just a bit over which is usual and common in sport betting you need a lot of budget to win big amounts while the 4 rules above are more for slot machines which offer odds of well over x10.000 as the maximum win multiplier.Therefore most people have not a lot of budget to try to increase through sport betting and soccer and they go and play with 0.10 to 0.20 minimum bet in most slot machines trying to hit that max win because in the end everybody wants to win as much as they can from gambling activity. I agree though that if you want to be successful in gambling which by the way is extremely difficult the higher chances are in sport betting and poker where you have a lot in hand compared to games that are 100% dependent on luck. |

Recklessness is an action that is always caused by those who gamble not for fun but to look for additional sources of income.
When you see gambler like that and it is difficult to advise him just let him be so that he can truly feel regret because someone can think well and be more careful when they have experienced failure which is really difficult.
Yes, most of them always ignore advice that is actually good for them, usually people like themselves will realize when they experience crushing defeats and losing streaks, that's why as much as possible we continue to provide suggestions and advice for beginner friends in this forum so that they don't go down the wrong path. that gambling should not be used as a source of income because it is not a place like that but a place to find entertainment. I often see people making careless actions that result in them ending up losing a lot in their gambling and losing a lot of money because they are obsessed with chasing wins in the gambling they play, always hoping for a big win which is actually difficult to get. because they don't know that the dealer always wins  Absolutely, it's frustrating when people ignore good advice but it's great that you're trying to guide beginners here. Gambling should definitely be about entertainment, not the hope of regular income. Hopefully, your suggestions help others enjoy it responsibly. That is what gambling should be in theory,just some way to entertain yourself and in the mean time having some really remote slim possibilities to win some money by doing this activity.However although many people start gambling trying to forget the problems of nowadays and the stress level of nowadays which is extreme to say the least,people soon after entering this zone they do not accept the fact that you can lose money from such activity.They want to get their money back and continue to play without any real objective except the one to get the money back and this is the number one factor which leads to gambling addiction.People should learn about gambling before entering such activity so they avoid the risk to be drown in gambling addiction. |

Nice team looks like had a really lucky night yesterday in the game against Marseille.The player from Marseille got two yellows in a very short amount of time which resulted in a red card and soon after Nice were able to break the score to get to 1-0 which also ended in a win.Marseille we all know it is not in a good condition this season but against Nice even when they were running for the title they used to lose in the game that they played away like yesterday.For me Marseille is out of the title race this year while Monaco with all the ups and downs I think they can give it a try,I don't see any other team who can be as consistent when it comes to the teams fighting against Paris.

For the game,the only game of today I think the bookies has misjudged the odds like they do it commonly trying to screw us and deceive us on the decisions we make based on those odds.I think both Aston Villa and West Ham is on equal form,maybe a bit,slightly better for Aston Villa but that does not mean you can give them 1.80 to win,I would give them 2.20 as a minimum which would be the ideal odd.I think the draw will be the most likely result and based on the forms of both teams I think both teams to score and over 2.5,over 3.5 goals are highly to be hit.

However, Napoli is still quite a strong opponent for Verona even though they are playing as hosts and Napoli managed to steal full points in this away match with a convincing score of 1-3. Actually, the two teams played quite evenly, but Napoli are the defending champions and Verona certainly knows the capacity of Rudi Garcia's squad. The lead was opened by Politano in the 27th minute and I was very happy to finally see Kvaratskhelia able to contribute goals again and this time he also recorded a brace for Napoli's victory.
On the other hand, this victory means Napoli have to be more patient because they are still in 5th place in the standings and each of their competing teams is still quite consistent until this week. For Verona, they are quite threatened with this defeat again but at least they can survive until next week and they have to get another win if they want to immediately be free from the bottom table.
Napoli is far away this year in the Serie A and I don't think they stand a chance to get to the title again after seeing the performance of Inter Milan which for me is the main contender to win the Scudetto this year and also Milan,Juventus and Lazio have good form although Lazio is far away in points. The real tests are not against teams like Verona but how Napoli will behave against Inter,Juventus,Milan,Lazio and I think from these tests I only remember that of Lazio which made them lose 1-3 at home if I remember correctly,so not that promising this Napoli,hopefully they shift their focus to the Champions League as they don't have real chances for the Serie A. |

Leicester City continue to dominate the league, with 11 wins in their last 12 matches, Leicester are currently leading with 33 points. Lanchester, who suffered their only defeat to Acun Ilıcalı's team Hull City, will most likely be promoted back to the Premier League as leaders. In addition to Leicester, Ipswich Town are also doing very well, with nine wins in 11 games and Ipswich in second place.
It is good that Leicester didn't lose the power like Leeds did when coming in the Championship as they for me were the only team not deserving relegation compared to the three teams that were relegated last season from the Premier League.I guess since they are doing this well it means that most likely most of the players when relegated opted to stay with them and hence these results so far.I think that there are about 46 games here about 10 more than in the Premier League and the depth of the squad is extremely needed in order to do well,I think one team that is sure to be directly promoted next season in the Premier League is exactly Leicester. |

That is a great performance you had there and personally I had an 47 odd 10 games parlay that only Real Madrid made me lose my bet.I also don't care and don't add doubts to the games I choose,I choose them and whatever happens happens next.For today there are good games but you need to be careful of which of them to choose.Of course when we place such low bets as 0.13 dollars on a ticket we don't care what happens to such bet as we think if we hit it great if not who cares for 0.13 dollars.
I have bet some 0.10 dollars tickets today with a lot of games with much higher odds than those in the ticket and as I said if hit great if not,who cares for 0.10 dollars,meanwhile our doubts has 0 effects on the gambling we take and make.

As a gambler, from when I leave the house down to the casino prior to getting there I normally project specific amount that should I probably hit am turning around to leave for home immediately. And am quite sure am ain't the only one who have for one had this plan thought wrapped in his head, some persons might have too.
Just in case, what amount will be looking like a nice hit for you to leave a casino just immediately for maybe your first, second or third hit on the machine as you have just walked in?
I am afraid I don't have an x amount except to hit the max win,that is my main motivation to go to the casino and play the slot machines hoping to get a huge win.I don't play other games and even if I do the amounts won there compared to the slots is not relevant at all so I think I rarely leave the casino without losing all the balance first as getting the max win is extremely difficult to do. If I hit the max win then I have nothing left to do in the casino and as such I will leave the casino after hitting it,hitting it though takes a huge amount of time so most of the time I stay in the casino until I lose all my balance hoping to get that max win. |

Unfortunately when you are a gambler and you are having luck in sport betting like I did today for example which I won quite some parlays and got from 10.000 IDR to 800.000 meaning from less than 1 dollars to 50 dollars which I consider a good day I immediately lost it all trying to increase them in slot machines.I have said so many times that I should stop playing slot machines yet whenever I am winning something,soon after I lose them all in the slot machines,for me the real fight is against myself now to distance myself from slots as it looks I am having quite some good luck in games where luck is not 100% relevant like sport betting different from slot machines.

Verstappen showed that most likely tomorrow he can win the race based on the Sprint of today and that it won't take longer than the first stint to do so.Looks like he still wants to win and the bookies have increased the odds of him winning the race not a little but not that much also from 1.23 to 1.57 so far and I doubt it can go any higher because he showed today that he is eager to win again.
I am very curious to see the behavior of the drivers in front of him as this is a very technical and difficult track and if they fight hard then he will need more than the first stint performance to win the race of tomorrow,that is the only question remaining for me.

What a shame honestly for my points in this round. Had 3 correct results in last 10 minutes of the match and everything changed really quick could have taken the first place really easily but just the luck. Nottingham forrest spilled the lead plus that var decision in the end just unlucky
I am also feeling bad suddenly things gone from bad to worse for me as I was not expecting few results to be happened but have to accept them I was expecting one goal from Arsenal for the improvement but this also gone on wrong side with leave me down. But most chances I will be able to perform better in coming week because mostly after break I have bad results, so things could be normal as we will have matches on regular basis. Right now after 55 minutes Sheffield United holding Manchester United with the score of 1 - 1 hopefully I will have one more goal from Manchester United for the first extract of this week. Somehow i took the first place in the pool but im not satisfied with how the results turned out because i knew i could have scored a lot more points in this round. Man Utd result is going good for me hopefully they score at least one more so that it finishes 1-2 to get all 3 points Congrats on getting to that first place which will be very difficult to get until the end but I wish you do so.I have not checked at all where I am as I think I got a lot of close results today with a couple of exact ones with Liverpool being one I have gotten the 3 points and the other games I don't remember but since I have played the favorites I should have gotten quite a good number of points as all of them won and this is something unique in a league where rarely all the favorites win their games. Manchester does not look good at 1-1 so far and Sheffield United would love to get one point,hopefully they make it 1-2 as I have the same score I believe. |

It was a horrible Q3 for Verstappen. Because his last lap was deleted due to being out of track limits. His last sector was really incredible despite losing time in the first sector. He was going to take the pole from Leclerc's hands by only 0.005s. But that deletion resulted in 6th place for Verstappen.  I must still admit that it was hell of a drive by Leclerc as well. He also deserved the pole with that clean lap. The qualifying session was enjoyable and hopefully the race would be the same as well. That says it all then as I didn't wait 11 PM European time to watch the qualifying thinking that Verstappen would have an easy win there.When I saw the standings today in the morning I thought that maybe his ego to keep doing great even after winning the title is slowing down little by little,I see that I am mistaken now and most likely tomorrow will be a great race with so many good drivers in front of him in a difficult track like this one. The odd should be way more than 1.23 right now and I think this is a good opportunity to bet on him to win some extra money for the weekend. Verstappen's odds have been increased by bookmakers - but only to 1.57. However it is still not that bad actually. I believe it is good enough to add it to a parlay full of bets you trust. We are talking about Verstappen here in the end. Norris and Hamilton have 6.50 while Leclerc has 7.00. I understand this though because Ferrari are mostly better in qualifying compared to race performance. By the way I don't think starting from a little behind is a big deal for Verstappen. I believe he can still win by a big margin. I agree but what I also think why Perez does that bad although he has the same car as Verstappen,I should not be surprised that much as he has been consistently bad during these recent races.Verstappen can pass the drivers ahead him in the first stint before the first pit stop if the car is in full power and he is also in full motivation. As for the pool I have decided these last races to put the 10 persons I have gone with at least 90% of all the races no matter what happens,it is one of those few races for me that I fail to find the Pole sitter while most of the time I and many others have found him as most of the races that has been Verstappen . |

All the blame should be on Sanchez for drawing the game today. I cannot understand mistakes like these.
You have a great result, you need this victory and you give a goal back by trying to be too smart as a goalkeeper.
Yes, I'm well aware that the best teams play with a goalkeeper when building up the play - but there must be some common sense by those goalkeepers as well.
I agree with you that the goalkeepers when they make mistakes they weigh much more than when a normal player does the same mistake,own goal for example from a defender it weighs less than when the goalkeeper want to play smart and get hit hard then because of this mistake. I agree also that when you are winning you should do all in your power to slow down the adversary especially when the lead was 2 goals and they got to equalized because of amateur mistakes like this one. |

Sounds like a very competitive league this time around the Bundesliga,Leverkussen continues to impress with their form and are on equal points to Bayern Munchen having gotten a draw there and even Dortmund is coming there,looks like it will not be an easy win of the Bundesliga this year.I think in fact that most likely Bayer Leverkussen has a really solid team capable of winning the Bundesliga this year,meanwhile for betting this league remains one of the best if not the best as both favorites won their game,the games were almost all both teams to score and all over 2.5 goals.

How bad is Real Madrid I have no word to express but I will let you know that it ruined my 10 games parlay,luckily I didn't believe much in this parlay and only put a ridiculous amount to it yet when I am seeing that every game was won and I see only Real Madrid losing it I feel a bit sad not for the ridiculous amount played,I am sad for the fact that out of 10 games Real Madrid is burning my ticket.Real Madrid has burned me many times with the worse being when they lost against Atletico and with this type of game that they are showing against a weak Sevilla I highly doubt they are going to win the title this year https://stake.com/sports/home?iid=sport%3A108646640&modal=bet |

It seems a losing bet as Chelsea is leading 2-0 against Arsenal so far and Arsenal seems not that powerful to change this around so far although there is still half an hour to be played.Chelsea is on a really good run and it looks like Pochettino is working his magic so far having put a team that is winning three consecutive games in the Premier League after doing very bad since he took over,it looks now though that things are changing and finally the team has found the harmony needed to start winning.
For this billionaire though I don't know his total fortune but since he plays that much on a single game he should have much more.

Twilight Princess slot by Pragmatic Play helped me set my personal best couple of days ago.
Where's the replay mate? Surely we want to watch... as wise man said: no replay = hoax I'm glad you find my win so big(multiplier wise) that it's hard to believe without proof. But unfortunately I didn't know how to get that link to replay, and I don't know still. Please, someone, be so kind and explain it to me. Is it still possible to get that link now if I have a Stake Bet ID? casino:183712023844 Also I can provide a proving screenshot:  I ended up third in the recent Stake's Slots Forum Challenge. I hope it proves that it's not hoax  (Although I'm sure you you believe me without any proof )  ^^Btw, I've made a lot of screenshots like that during those 15 free spins, and if replay is now not possible, I can post them here too. It is very easy to create a replay link.Just click on the dots in the upper right of your screen while playing the slot and after a big win you will see all of your last bets that contain a multiplier higher than x40 in order to feature in the replay link,they cannot be created with a lower multiplier.In there click on replays,you will see all your last bets that contain a x40 multiplier,find the one that you hit the biggest multiplier and click create link to create a replay link,as easy as that and last but not least congrats on your huge win multiplier wise. |

Sorry guys but I don't know what you are still arguing about! It's obvious that OP has been scammed but it appeared that stake has nothing to do with this scam. What are you still arguing about?
I'm not going to read the replies on the past eight pages but am sure this topic doesn't deserve such attention
. OP should change the topic's title to make it more appropriate as stake has nothing to do with whatever happened to him.
Well, I am glad he unlocked the thread again, because a new Phishing attack was launched in the same time that the post monthly was given out. These attacks are timed perfectly to trick people, when something are officially dropped by Stake. (Stake has nothing to do with this, but the scammers jump on the opportunity to confuse people, when there are other bonuses being dropped)  So, reminding people regularly about these Phishing attacks are a good idea... and it should be done more often. We need some "White hat" hacker groups to go after these scammers, so that they are held responsible for their actions. That is the best that has to be done as in Cybersecurity there is no stronger weapon as user awareness,I am adding here to always check if the email is from the official Stake email before rushing to click any link as the first step to achieve better security.Whoever uses Google or Gmail as an email service they have it really easy as Stake when it comes to monthly bonuses usually that email filters in the Promotions tab,nevertheless I always double check before clicking anything suspicious and I do not rush. The White hat hacker groups I think is a good idea but difficult to implement as White hat hackers are after finding bugs for big companies so unless they are hired specifically by a company it will be difficult to make them go after these scammers. |

Few minutes left.
Ferraris, Hamilton, and Verstappen are very close for the pole-position.
The race will be another thing with the RBR using less tyres during the race but it is always nice to beat them.
