Motivated by "breaking the code"

[sunsilk]

That is the thinking that usually someone is tired already with their losses and started to say some words out of their mouth due to the bad results.

It's not actually breaking the code and it's a typical expression that we do when we're frustrated.

Yes the odds of winning are quite small, but still there are ways to beat a slot machine for a small amount. When gambling was not yet banned in my country my friends and I used to go to the casino and play slot machines. Our strategy was that before we sit down for the slot machine we have several hours to monitor the activity of all slot machines. We were able to make good money sitting down only for those slot machine in which it has already been thrown a lot of money but they have not yet given the winnings.

Of course, this can not be attributed to breaking the code is just an increase in the probability of winning by counting.

interesting approach
this was purely on observation or you also take notes on number of rolls and frequency of prizes?

I'd be curious to know how often these pay players
more than 1% of times?

Only a few could really able to last that long or in the situation that theyre tired on having losses because most of the time people do really end up on getting wrecked for them not able to make bets anymore
due to financial problems.

When you are still on the situation where you are on mid-way of addiction or huge losses then better stop and dont aim for more or having that kind of fixed mindset that you would really be beating up the house
because we know on how reality works.

If you dont able to slap out your face then you would be surely experiencing the most common problem for an addicted person to face on.

One of my neighbours, a million years ago, was obviously addict to the slot machines. He would spend hours spinning in a nearby bar (these machines are allowed in bars in my country of origin) and my take is that he would spend a fortune on it. Once, I passed by and I overheard him saying "I am going to teach this machine who is in charge". It sounded like he was attributing some short of conscience and life to the machine and though he could "beat it". I have observed that many people that gamble are into that type of thinking, that is, it is me against this code and this machine and I can actually break the code and win.

I personally do not play slots, but do you think that is why people like slot machines? Short of breaking their code?

No, modern slots are very, very exciting to play, they have great graphics, a lot of win opportunities and other benefits. Overall, there is some story behind every slot games, some are about ancient greek gods, some - about mythic warriors and so on.

At the same time, people think on slots like you have to feed it in order to get something from it. i.e. I know people who lose and look positively at it because they think that slots need to eat money in order to return some to you. Then they lose money and say offensive words like are you still hungry you mf... give me some money back.

I haven't heard anyone trying to break the code but some people really think that there should be some secret sombinations that will hack the slot machine and they'll become millionaires.

I can not know the percentage of winnings because we did not have access to the algorithms of slot machines.

A person comes to play and chooses the slot machine he likes. We observe his game and therefore know approximately how much money he put into the machine. If he lost quite a lot and the machine did not give him the winnings next one of us sat down for this machine. We never played a slot machine that had not been used before us that day or had already let someone win.

I don't know if this strategy works now, we used it about 10 years ago.

Slots are kind of addictive because people from any class can choose since they are exists for all class and everywhere so we don't even need a casino we even have them on supermarkets.

Its complete random and the user can only expect that lucky draw and they expect it all the time, thats the hook of gambling that is why people keep falling for it even if they know they never going to make it happen.
